FLEXIBLE LOCKING-AND-SEALING DEVICE Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC E05B39/02 G09F3/03 F16G11/04 

FIELD: ironmongery, particularly flexible locking-and-sealing devices including cable cuts as flexible members.

SUBSTANCE: device comprises cable cut having passive and free ends. Free cable cut end passes trough device body to create loop and is secured in the body by means of locking mechanism during device locking. Locking mechanism comprises two identical fixing members made as rollers installed in separator loaded with locking spring and arranged in body interior surface. The interior surface has flat slanted surfaces adapted to cooperate with fixing members. One end of locking spring is put on extension made on rear separator wall. Another end thereof is put on spring stabilizing means. Separator has roller divider. Device also has additional fixing means for locking mechanism fixation. The additional fixing means is made as L-shaped stop plate put on spring stabilizer by horizontal flange thereof. Vertical stop plate flange cooperates with rear separator wall as threaded arm is screwed in threaded orifice of the body after prior cable cut fixation with fixing members. The threaded orifice extends at acute angle to longitudinal cable cut axis, wherein the angle is measured in direction opposite to direction of force to be applied to cable cut during unauthorized device opening. Arm has part with narrowed cross-section.

EFFECT: improved device tamper protection and increased locking force.
