Problems solved by technology

But when closing, it is equally difficult to close with a load, because it has to move the depth of the undercut against the load
In addition, the magnetic force must be partially overcome to work
According to the structural embodiment of this magnetic closure, there occurs a more or less sudden separation of the magnet from the armature, which affects the tactile opening feel of the closure.

Embodiment Construction

[0089] In comparison, the principle according to the invention will firstly be explained in terms of the functions and effects that occur in a magnetic closure according to the prior art according to document EP 97921465 .

[0090] Figures 10a to 10c The structure and function of the hook-shaped closure during closing and opening are shown in diagram form. The closure is contained in each connection module 1 and 2 , which has magnets 48 and 80 and connection means in the form of tongue 74 and base 38 , respectively.

[0091] Figure 10a From left to right, the physical work that must be applied when the closure is closed under load is shown in the two motion phases.

[0092] Starting from rest, the connection module 2 first overcomes the downwardly directed force F L is lifted from the separated position to the height P0, for which work W is required Δy . The height P0 is the height position that the connection module 2 also has in the hooked state. Since the magnetic f...

Abstract

The invention relates to a connection assembly, comprising two connecting modules (1, 2) each with a load housing (51, 52) with the following features: a locking device with a spring locking element (9) and a latch piece (5), a magnet and armature construction and a movement track (60), on which the latch piece (5) can be moved from a closed position to an open position, the locking device, the magnet and armature construction and the movement track (60) cooperating by means of the following features: a. on opening, the connecting modules are moved on the movement track (60), wherein the magnet (8) and armature are moved in opposition and simultaneously the latch piece (5) and the spring locking element (9) are moved in opposition, until the spring locking element (9) is no longer engaged. On closing, the connecting module locks in with the aid of magnetic force. According to the invention, the position of the load housings (51, 52) and the position and form of the movement track (60) are designed such that on moving the connecting module the load housings (51, 52) move together by an amount Delta x against the load FL.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a mechanical-magnetic connection, that is to say a connection with a mechanical interlock assisted by magnetic force, wherein said connection is especially suitable for use as on bags, backpacks and similar objects Locks. However, these enumerations should not limit the scope of application of the present invention. Background technique [0002] Depending on the application of the closure, completely different requirements are placed on the manual closure. [0003] Thus, for example, it is required that the closure locks itself under load. If the connecting part is loaded in the provided load direction, in order to meet this requirement, such a connecting part has undercuts or bevels and is designed such that a form-fitting locking is produced. To close the closure, the closure halves to be connected are moved relative to each other in the closing direction and then generally hooked into one another. [0004] The following ...
