1. A locking device with two device parts movable relative to one another between a closed and an open position, one of which comprises a locking element and another of which comprises a support part with a latch movable relative thereto, between a closed position and an open position in such a way that it engages with the locking element in the closed position and releases from the locking element in the open position, wherein on the support part is arranged a knee lever comprising a first arm pivotable relative to the support part about a pivot axis and further comprising a second arm, which is pivotable relative to the first arm about a knee joint axis distanced from the pivot axis and running parallel to the pivot axis, wherein the latch is drivably connected to the knee lever in such a way that, when the latch is moved to its closed position, the arms of the knee lever are pivoted relative to one another into a first pivot position located near a dead center point of the knee lever, wherein, when in the first pivot position, the knee lever is positioned against a point of abutment distanced from the pivot axis when a retention force acting on the latch via the locking element is generated, wherein the knee lever is movable by means of an unlocking mechanism from the first pivot position across its dead center point to a second pivot position corresponding to the open position of the latch, and wherein the unlocking mechanism for moving the knee lever from the first pivot position to the second pivot position comprises an electric actuator that can be connected to an electrical energy storage unit,
wherein the actuator comprises an electromagnet with an electromagnetically movable actuating element for moving the knee lever from the first pivot position to the second pivot position, wherein the movable actuating element can be slid transversely relative to the pivot axis of the knee lever between a neutral position and an operating position, wherein the latch is configured as a hook-shaped part that is connected to the support part in such a way that it is pivotable between its closed and open positions about a rotation axis aligned roughly parallel to the pivot axis, wherein the actuating element is configured as a striker bolt that cooperates with an actuation point of the knee lever remote from the pivot axis, wherein the striker bolt is distanced from the actuation point by a clearance in the neutral position such that there is no contact between the striker bolt and the actuation point in the neutral position and wherein the striker bolt is positioned against the actuation point in the operating position, and wherein the clearance is present when the latch is in its closed position. |
