Dual lock locking system for containers

摘要

A locking system is mounted to a door with three rods extending therefrom. The rods have a locked position extending beyond the periphery of the door and an unlocked position not extending beyond the periphery of the door. Three rod receivers are adapted to receive the three rods in the locked position. A handle rotatably engages cam plates which are operatively engaged with the rods whereby rotation of the handle rotates the cam which moves the rod ends from one position to the other. A locking tab extends forwardly from the lower cam plate into a recess and is engaged by a circular lock while the recess prevents movement of the engaged circular lock. A second locking tab extends forwardly from the rod-locking link and a stationary locking tab is aligned thereto. Both locking tabs are engaged by a padlock preventing movement of the rod-locking link.

1. A locking system for use with a storage container, the locking system being mounted into a door of the storing container, the locking system comprising:
a housing mounted to and extending through said door, at least one rod extending from the housing, the at least one rod having a locked position extending beyond the periphery of the door and an unlocked position not extending beyond the periphery of the door, a handle extending from the housing, the handle rotatably engaging cam plates contained within the housing, the cam plates being operatively engaged with the at least one rod, the handle rotating a lower cam plate, which in turn operates an upper cam plate, to move the at least one rod from one of the locked position and the unlocked position to the other of the locked position and unlocked position, a primary locking tab extending forwardly from the lower cam plate into a first recess in the housing, the primary locking tab adapted to be engaged by a circular lock, the first recess adapted to prevent movement of the circular lock and the primary locking tab, a secondary locking tab attached to and extending forwardly from a rod-locking link into a second recess in the housing, the secondary locking tab aligning with a stationary locking tab and both the secondary and the stationary locking tab engaged by a padlock preventing movement of the cam plates whereby the secondary locking tab functions independently of the primary locking tab.
