Abstract:
A locking device for mutually locking a first and second element, comprising:a covering element (T); and a support frame (C) supporting the covering element, a movable bolt (1) shaped to interface with a separate key (2) for actuating the bolt; and first and second bolt-guiding members (3, 4) carried by one of the covering element and second the support frame (T, C), wherein the bolt (1) comprises a key-inserting aperture (114), first and second guiding ramps (112, 113) adapted to cooperate with the first and second guiding members (3, 4) respectively, and a third guiding ramp (115) adapted to cooperate with a contour of the key (2) when the key is inserted into the aperture (114), in order to selectively actuate the bolt (1) from a locking position to an unlocking position and from an unlocking position to a locking position, by rotation of the key (2); and the second bolt-guiding member (4) is carried by the covering element (T) and formed by a wedge-shaped finger, and the second guiding ramp (113) adapted to cooperate with this member is a region of a lateral edge of the bolt including an indentation forming a receptacle for the finger (4), so as to block the bolt (1) in the locking position and in the unlocking position.
