Abstract

An electromagnetic door lock has an electromagnet which cooperates with an armature plate. The armature plate has an adjusting unit fastened to the armature plate so as to be freely rotatable and which cooperates with a threaded rod that is secured to the door or to the door frame.

Claims (17)

1 . An electromagnetic door lock, comprising:

an armature plate ( 1 ) having an adjusting unit fastened to the armature plate ( 1 ) so as to be freely rotatable and which cooperates with a threaded rod ( 5 ) that is secured to the door or to a door frame; and

an electromagnet which cooperates with the armature plate.

2 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 1 , wherein the adjusting unit has an internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ) with a radially projecting collar ( 3 ).

3 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 2 , wherein the collar ( 3 ) passes into the internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ) by a conical portion.

4 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 2 , wherein the internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ) is configured to be screwed onto an external thread of the threaded rod ( 5 ).

5 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 2 , wherein the threaded rod ( 5 ) has, at its front side projecting into the internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ), a recess ( 6 ) configured to engage a tool.

6 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 5 , wherein the collar ( 3 ) has an axial through-opening ( 7 ) configured to allow access to the recess ( 6 ) in the internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ).

7 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 6 , wherein the collar ( 3 ) has on its side remote from the internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ) at least one engagement opening ( 8 ) configured to engage a special purpose tool by which the adjusting unit can be aligned with respect to the threaded rod ( 5 ).

8 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 1 , wherein the adjusting unit has a cover ( 9 ) on a side remote of the threaded rod ( 5 ).

9 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 2 , wherein the internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ) has a retaining element ( 10 , 11 ) on a side remote from the collar ( 3 ).

10 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 9 , wherein the retaining element ( 10 , 11 ) is supported at the armature plate ( 1 ) via an elastic buffer ( 12 ).

11 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 10 , further comprising a washer ( 13 ) arranged between the retaining element ( 10 , 11 ) and the elastic buffer ( 12 ).

12 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 11 , wherein the internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ) is a hexagon socket sleeve and the retaining element is a nut ( 10 ) configured to screw onto an external thread of the hexagon socket sleeve ( 4 ).

13 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 9 , wherein the retaining element is a corrugated retaining ring ( 13 ) configured to snap into a circumferential groove of the internally threaded sleeve ( 4 ).

14 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 13 , wherein the nut ( 10 ) is a hexagon nut.

15 . The electromagnetic door lock according to claim 1 , wherein the electromagnetic door lock is adapted for doors in escape routes.
