Abstract: A securing mechanism for a door, especially the door of a device, comprising a first closure element; an arresting structure disposed on the first closure element; a second closure element configured for latching with the arresting structure, wherein for unlatching purposes, the second closure element is rotatable relative to the first closure element; and a lever support that is movable relative to the second closure element such that it is transferable between a release position, in which it cancels a latching of the second closure element with the arresting structure, and a latching position in which the latching of the second closure element with the arresting structure is maintained. The lever support is also movable relative to the first closure element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a closure for closing a door, in particular an appliance door, with a second closure element (3) which is lockable to a latching structure (4) of a first closure element (2) and is rotatable relative to the first closure element (2) for unlocking purposes, and with at least one lever bearing (5) which is arranged movably in relation to the second closure element (3) and is transferable from a release position, in which, as a result of a relative rotation, said lever bearing undoes the locking to the latching structure (4), into a blocking position, in which the locking to the latching structure (4) is maintained during a relative rotation, wherein the lever bearing (5) is also arranged movably in relation to the first locking element (2).
