Abstract
A locking mechanism () and a lock () are provided. The locking mechanism () comprises a push-button () connected to a freewheel () via a traction cable, with the freewheel being connected to a drive device () of the lock (). A baggage compartment in the cabin of an airplane usually comprises two locks () of this type which can be unlocked by the push-button (). A freewheel () arranged between the push-button () and the lock () ensures that the push-button () remains in a pushed position as long as each lock () allocated to the baggage compartment is not in a correctly locked position. It can be identified from the position of the push-button of the baggage compartment whether both locks of the baggage compartment are correctly snapped in.
