Abstract:
A bar-type closure for a door having a door leaf, comprising:an actuating device disposed on an outer surface of said door leaf and rotatable between an open position and a closed position, wherein rotational movement of said actuating device is convertible to longitudinal displacement of at least one locking rod that is guided parallel to a pivot axis of said door on an inner side of said door leaf between a locking position and a release position wherein said actuating device is provided with a hand lever that is pivotable away from said outer surface of said door leaf about a hinge line axis thereof that is oriented parallel to said pivot axis of said door and to a direction of displacement of said at least one locking rod, wherein an increase of spacing between said hand lever and said door leaf that results with pivoting movement of said hand lever is converted into displacement of said at least one locking rod into said release position thereof by means of a Z-shaped drive lever that is disposed between said door leaf and hand lever, wherein one end of said Z-shaped drive lever is non-displaceably mounted in a first journal that is disposed on an inner surface of said hand lever that faces said door leaf, wherein a second end of said Z-shaped drive lever is mounted in a second journal that is displaceably disposed relative to said door leaf, and wherein said second journal is coupled to said at least one locking rod by means of an articulation that extends through said door leaf.
