Abstract

A lock remote control device comprises a lock assembly and a manipulatable unit positioned spaced a distance from the lock assembly. The lock assembly includes a latch lever for selectively locking and unlocking a movable structural element, a first biasing spring for bringing the latch lever in position to lock the movable structural element. The manipulatable unit includes a movable member connected through a latch cable to the latch lever and movable between projected and retracted position, and an actuator operable to permit the movable member to move from the retracted position towards the projected position to bringing the latch lever against the first biasing spring in position to unlock the movable structural element when an external pushing force is applied thereto, but to block the movement of the movable member in the retracted position during the absence of the external pushing force. This movable member is normally biased to assume the projected position by a second biasing spring. The control further comprises a device for resetting the latch lever to the initial position, the reset device including a third biasing spring, the biasing forces of the first and third biasing spring being larger than the biasing force of the second biasing spring.
