Abstract:
Device (10.1-10.6) with an axially toggling push button (11) for actuating a lock on a door or flap, especially for a vehicle, with a lock cylinder (20), which has radially movable tumblers (21) in an axial arrangement (23) and to which a key (22) is assigned;where the tumblers (21) are normally in a blocking position (21.1), in which the tumblers (21) project out of the lock cylinder (20); but where the insertion of the key (22) into the lock cylinder (20) causes the tumblers (21) to move into the lock cylinder (20), so that they are then in their release position (21.2); and with a blocking edge (30), located on the side, next to the projecting tumblers (21), which edge cooperates with the tumblers (21) only in the blocking position (21.1), but not in the release position (21.2), and where the toggling movement (12) of the push button (11) can be transferred to an input element (40) of the lock only when the tumblers (21) are in their release position (21.2), whereinthe lock cylinder is mounted so that it cannot rotate; wherein the blocking edge (30) can move transversely (35) relative to the axial arrangement (23) of the tumblers (21); wherein the transverse movement (35) proceeds from the toggling movement (12) of the push button (11); wherein, when the tumblers (21) are in their blocking position (21.1), they prevent the transverse movement (35) of the blocking edge (30) but allow such movement when they are in their release position (21.2); and wherein the toggling movement (12) of the push button (11) is transmitted to the input element (40) of the lock only during the simultaneous transverse movement (35) of the blocking edge (30).
