Abstract

The invention relates to a locking arrangement for a switch cabinet, having a switch cabinet door which has on its inside a push-rod lock which projects through the switch cabinet door to the front side of the switch cabinet door via a coupling piece, wherein an actuating member is fixed to the front side via a handle adapter and is coupled to the coupling piece, for which purpose the switch cabinet door has at least one adapter plate, onto which the handle adapter is placed in a form-fitting manner via at least one aperture, the adapter plate having, on its side facing the actuating member, a fastening element, by means of which the actuating member is fixed to the adapter plate.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A locking arrangement for a switch cabinet, the locking arrangement having a switch cabinet door which has on its inside a push-rod lock which projects through the switch cabinet door to a front side of the switch cabinet door via a coupling piece, an actuating member, a handle adapter arranged between the actuating member and the switch cabinet door and forming a flat support for the actuating member, and is coupled to the coupling piece, the actuating member being fixed to the front side of the door by the handle adapter, the switch cabinet door having at least one adapter plate onto which the handle adapter is placed in a form-fitting manner via at least one aperture, the adapter plate having, on its side facing the actuating member, a fastening element by means of which the actuating member is fixed to the adapter plate; and wherein the handle adapter has an elongated hole along which the coupling piece is guided through the handle adapter, the enclosure door having two adapter plates and the handle adapter having two apertures arranged opposite each other with respect to the elongated hole.

2. The locking arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening element has at least one keyhole and the actuating member has at least one mushroom head which engages in the adapter plate via the keyhole and engages behind the keyhole.

3. The locking arrangement according to claim 1 , in which the adapter plate has, on its side facing the actuating member, a plug-in receptacle for a locking pin of the actuating member.

4. The locking arrangement according to claim 3 , in which the plug-in receptacle is formed adjacent to the keyhole or integrally with the keyhole.

5. The locking arrangement according to claim 1 , in which the switch cabinet door has a further elongated hole along which the coupling piece is guided through the switch cabinet door, the further elongated hole and the elongated hole being arranged offset with respect to one another and the coupling piece having a Z-edge between the elongated hole and the further elongated hole.

6. The locking arrangement according to claim 1 , in which the at least one adapter plate is detachably connected to the switch cabinet door, preferably screwed, and is inserted from the inside of the switch cabinet door into a hollow profile of the switch cabinet door.

7. The locking arrangement according to claim 1 , in which the coupling piece extends through a profile, preferably a hollow profile, of the switch cabinet door and the handle adapter has a latching contour on a longitudinal edge, with which it engages around a profile edge on the outside of the profile.

8. A locking arrangement for a switch cabinet, the locking arrangement having a switch cabinet door which has on its inside a push-rod lock which projects through the switch cabinet door to a front side of the switch cabinet door via a coupling piece, an actuating member, a handle adapter arranged between the actuating member and the switch cabinet door and forming a flat support for the actuating member, and is coupled to the coupling piece, the actuating member being fixed to the front side of the door by the handle adapter, the switch cabinet door having at least one adapter plate onto which the handle adapter is placed in a form-fitting manner via at least one aperture, the adapter plate having, on its side facing the actuating member, a fastening element by means of which the actuating member is fixed to the adapter plate, in which the handle adapter is placed on an outer side of a profile, preferably a hollow profile of the switch cabinet door, the outer side extending at an acute angle with respect to a switch cabinet door front side, and wherein the handle adapter has a support side via which it rests on the outer side, which extends at the same acute angle to a mounting side of the handle adapter via which the actuating member rests on the handle adapter, so that the mounting side extends parallel to the switch cabinet door front side.
