Abstract

A door lock device is provided and includes: a housing, an acting assembly arranged in the housing and having a lock tongue, an operating assembly arranged in the housing and interlocked with an outdoor handle, and a regulating assembly arranged in the housing for a user to regulate the operating assembly into an interlocking state or an idle state. As such, in the interlocking state, the outdoor handle drives the acting assembly through the operating assembly to cause the lock tongue to extend or retract relative to the housing, and in the idle state, the operating assembly cannot drive the acting assembly and the outdoor handle cannot be interlocked with the lock tongue.

1. A door lock device, comprising:

a door body pivotally connected to a door frame; and

a door lock device disposed inside the door body and comprising:

a housing having a receiving space;

an acting assembly arranged in the receiving space and having a lock tongue;

an operating assembly arranged in the receiving space and interlocked with a target handle; and

a regulating assembly arranged in the receiving space, wherein when the operating assembly is regulated into an interlocking state through the regulating assembly, the target handle drives the acting assembly through the operating assembly to cause the lock tongue to extend or retract relative to the housing, and wherein when the operating assembly is regulated into an idle state through the regulating assembly, the operating assembly is unable to drive the acting assembly and the target handle is unable to be interlocked with the lock tongue,

wherein the regulating assembly comprises a button pivotally connected to the housing and exposed from the receiving space, a first acting plate and a second acting plate arranged at opposite sides of the button, a rotating sheet axially connected to the housing and passing through the first and second acting plates, and a rotating plate axially connected to the housing and elastically connected to the rotating sheet, and wherein a sleeve is formed at one end of the rotating sheet, and a positioning rod is vertically disposed on the housing and positioned in the sleeve, such that the sleeve collides with the positioning rod when the rotating sheet swings.

2. The door lock of claim 1 , wherein the operating assembly has at least one operating mechanism comprising a rotating member engaging with the target handle, a base body disposed around the rotating member, and a sheet body fixed on the base body and disposed around the rotating member.

3. The door lock of claim 2 , wherein the sheet body has a stop arm for cooperating and actuating with the acting assembly.

4. The door lock of claim 2 , further comprising a sliding slot formed on a peripheral surface of the base body and in communication with the rotating member.

5. The door lock of claim 4 , wherein the operating mechanism further comprises a sliding block engaging with the sliding slot to abut against or separate from the rotating member along the sliding slot.

6. The door lock of claim 1 , wherein the acting assembly further comprises a lock tongue base connected to the lock tongue and a fireproof sheet displaceably disposed on the lock tongue base, wherein the fireproof sheet has a security post made of a hot melt material, the security post protrudes into and engages with the lock tongue base, and an acting post is arranged in the receiving space of the housing corresponding to the fireproof sheet.
