Abstract

See full text

A novel locking system of the type which has very useful properties and at the same time can be produced cost-effectively, and is therefore suitable to be a mass-produced product, particularly for use in motor vehicles and building fixtures. The latching element comprises a carrier (3, 3') and a rider (4, 4') which are displaceable toward each other and are in frictional or form-fitting engagement, with a latching recess (41) that is associated with the latch (51) being cut into the rider (4, 4') and a stop surface (43) which is engaged by a stop element (7) in the uncoded zero position of the latching element being provided at the free end, and that a spring/fixing element (6) is provided which is supported on the one hand against the inside base surface (200b) of the base body (2b) of the locking core (2) and, on the other hand, on against the carrier (3, 3'), and that the spring/fixing element (6) can be brought into a fixing position in which the relative position of carrier (3, 3') and rider (4, 4') is fixed and the stop element (7) is removed from engagement with the stop surface (43) of the rider (4, 4').
