Abstract
Abstract A locking arrangement for securing doors (2) or the like with two bolts (5,) displaceable relative to the door (2) to be closed and two locking devices (7, 8) associated therewith are described. One of the two locking devices (7, 8) has a locking mechanism (9) lockable with a key (10) and the other one is associated with a remote-controllable unlocking drive (14). A positioning device (16) is furthermore associated with lock bolt (5) lockable by the locking mechanism (9), which is actuated when lock bolt (5) is open. The actuation of the remote-controllable unlocking drive (14) is released when lock bolt (5) is open. Safety bolt (6) is associated with the unlocking drive (14). A drive device (17) is associated with the safety bolt (6) and is effective in the opening direction. It cooperates with the lock bolt (5) and is movable with the same in a starting position provided for the displacement of the safety bolt (6 ).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
174 words
A locking arrangement for securing a door having a door frame, which comprises (a) a lock bolt and a safety bolt mounted for displacement relative to the door, (b) a first locking device associated with the lock bolt and having (1) a key-operated locking mechanism for locking the lock bolt, (c) a second locking device associated with the safety bolt and having (1) a latch element for engaging the safety bolt, (2) a remote-controllable unlocking drive for the latch element and (3) a drive device effective in an opening direction and cooperating with the safety bolt for adjustment therewith into a locking position and into a starting position allowing for the displacement of the safety bolt, respectively, (d) a positioning means associated with the lock bolt, and (e) a circuit control arrangement for the remote-controllable unlocking drive, (1) the lock bolt positioning means assuming a circuit switching position when the lock bolt is open, wherein the remote-controllable unlocking drive for the latch element is actuated by the control arrangement to release the latch element.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
174 words
A locking arrangement for securing a door having a door frame, which comprises (a) a lock bolt and a safety bolt mounted for displacement relative to the door, (b) a first locking device associated with the lock bolt and having (1) a key-operated locking mechanism for locking the lock bolt, (c) a second locking device associated with the safety bolt and having (1) a latch element for engaging the safety bolt, (2) a remote-controllable unlocking drive for the latch element and (3) a drive device effective in an opening direction and cooperating with the safety bolt for adjustment therewith into a locking position and into a starting position allowing for the displacement of the safety bolt, respectively, (d) a positioning means associated with the lock bolt, and (e) a circuit control arrangement for the remote-controllable unlocking drive, (1) the lock bolt positioning means assuming a circuit switching position when the lock bolt is open, wherein the remote-controllable unlocking drive for the latch element is actuated by the control arrangement to release the latch element.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
Locking arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the drive device for the safety bolt is constituted by a tension device arranged between the lock and safety bolts.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
33 words
Locking arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the positioning means is connected parallel to the unlocking drive, and comprising a circuit breaker having an opening contact actuated when the lock bolt is open.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
30 words
Locking arrangement according to claim 3, wherein the positioning means and the unlocking drive are connected to a high-frequency power supply installation as well as a low-frequency power supply installation.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
74 words
Locking arrangement according to claim 1, comprising a control arrangement having a line-column matrix, the positioning means being connected to the high-frequency power supply installation by a line control unit and a column control unit, and a code member (56) actuated when the opening contact of the positioning means is actuated, the code member connecting the unlocking drive to the low-frequency power supply installation by the line control unit and the column control unit.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
30 words
Locking arrangement according to claim 1, further comprising an emergency opening device associated with the safety bolt and comprising an actuating device engageable by a lock with the safety bolt.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
49 words
Locking arrangement according to claim 5, further comprising a locking member associated with the code member, an encoding unit whereon the code member is integrated, and an alarm emitting installation actuated when the positioning means is actuated in the absence of a release signal emitted by the encoding unit.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
37 words
The locking arrangement of claim 6, wherein the safety bolt is displaceably mounted in a guide path extending in the opening direction and the unlocking drive is constituted by an electromagnet extending perpendicularly to the guide path.
