Mechanical latching unit for a main drive unit
View Patent ↗A mechanical latching unit for a main drive unit includes a rolling mechanical switch within a housing, with a main roller, a counter roller, a carriage and a carriage trip/locking lever, with a first joint created between the main roller and the first end of the carriage, where by the load of the traction link of the main drive unit carried out to the main roller distributes a primary force component carried out to the counter roller and a secondary force component carried out in a direction to a second end of the carriage, where by the mechanical latching unit includes a force reduction mechanism having at least two force reduction stages, a carrier reset spring fastened to the housing which resets the carriage back to a neutral respectively blocking position, and a lever reset spring which resets the carriage trip/locking lever back to a neutral respectively blocking position.
1. A mechanical latching unit for a main drive unit comprising:
a rolling mechanical switch within a housing
with a main roller, a counter roller, a carriage, a carriage trip/locking lever and
a first joint created between the main roller and a first end of the carriage,
whereby the load of a traction link of the main drive unit carried out to the main roller distributes a primary force component carried out to the counter roller and a secondary force component carried out in a direction to a second end of the carriage,
whereby the mechanical latching unit comprises:
a force reduction mechanism including at least two force reduction stages,
a carrier reset spring fastened to the housing which resets the carriage back to a neutral respectively blocking position, and
a lever reset spring which resets the carriage trip/locking lever back to a neutral respectively blocking position.
2. The mechanical latching unit, according to claim 1 , comprising:
a second joint between the second end of the carriage and the carriage trip/locking lever.
3. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 2 , wherein at least one part of the carriage is arranged for contacting at least one carriage deflection roller.
4. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 3 , wherein the main roller comprises two contact rollers contacting two separate counter rollers.
5. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 4 , comprising:
a swivel armature of an actuator unit for releasing the carriage trip/locking lever.
6. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one part of the carriage is arranged for contacting at least one carriage deflection roller.
7. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 1 , wherein the main roller comprises two contact rollers contacting two separate counter rollers.
8. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 1 , comprising:
at least one guiding slot implemented in the housing.
9. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 8 , comprising:
at least one guide bolt at the second end of the carriage engages in the guiding slot and a trip force is carried out to the guide bolt in a direction to the guiding slot by the carriage trip/locking lever.
10. The mechanical latching unit, according to claim 8 , comprising:
a second joint between the second end of the carriage and the carriage trip/locking lever.
11. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 10 , wherein at least one part of the carriage is arranged for contacting at least one carriage deflection roller.
12. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 11 , wherein the main roller comprises two contact rollers contacting two separate counter rollers.
13. The mechanical latching unit according to claim 1 , comprising:
a swivel armature of an actuator unit for releasing the carriage trip/locking lever.
