#CMT# #/CMT# The device has an opening key (16), which works together with a locking latch (11) over a transfer unit (9). The latch engages a closing bracket in a closing position, and deflecting guides (29-31) are provided in the transfer unit. The opening key stays in engagement with a slider (18), which is connected with the transfer unit. The slider is adjustable into a position lying outside of the engagement with the opening key, during an impact, which acts on the vehicle. The slider and the transfer unit are made from plastic. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Used for a pivotable cover (claimed) of an oddments tray e.g. glove box, in an instrument panel of a motor vehicle. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The slider is adjustable into the position lying outside of the engagement with the opening key, during an impact, which acts on the vehicle, thus preventing unwanted opening of the cover during a frontal crash of the vehicle. The slider and the transfer units are made from plastic, so that the locking device can be manufactured in a simple and cost effective manner, while simplifying the assembly of the locking device and reducing the weight of the locking device. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows an oddments tray in an unlocked position of a locking device. 9 : Transfer unit 11 : Locking latch 16 : Opening key 18 : Slider 29-31 : Deflecting guides. |
