摘要:
The lock for bags, brief-cases, shoulder bags and the like comprises two components, one being provided with an eyelet, tooth or stirrup and fixed to the rotatable flap of the bag or the like, and the other being connected to the fixed part of this latter and provided both with an aperture into which said eyelet is inserted and a knob connected to a slider so as to be able to move this latter against a spring, in order to enable a slider appendix, which acts as the bolt and is located in a position corresponding with said aperture, to be withdrawn from the eyelet which is inserted into this latter and so enable the bag or the like to be opened. Opening is facilitated by resilient means which tend to eject the eyelet from the aperture into which it is inserted when the bag is closed. The spring and resilient means are replaced by a single resilient plate (11) comprising at one end ejector fingers (12) and at the other end an appendix (15) bent at an angle to the plane of the plate (11) and forming a resilient arm which acts on the slider (10), so acting as a return spring (FIG. 2).
