Abstract
The device ( ), which is used to lock running gear ( ) guided in a rail ( ) and is or can be connected to the latter, has a body ( ) in which a locking pin ( ) is displaceably mounted and, by means of a resilient element ( ), is held resiliently in a first position, so that the locking pin ( ) can be brought by the action of a force from the first position, in which it can engage in a locking element ( ) provided in the rail ( ) or connected to the rail ( ), into a second position, in which it is released from the engagement in the locking element ( ). The locking device ( ), which is constructed simply and cost-effectively, therefore permits dividing elements ( ), such as sliding doors, sliding counters or folding walls, which are guided by the running gear ( ), to be closed off securely.
