ABSTRACT:
A locking device for the open-close mechanism such as door, drawer and the like of a cabinet, such as cupboard and the like, comprises a fastening member attached to either the open-close mechanism or the cabinet and a lock unit attached to the other counterpart. The lock unit is provided with a lock lever for fastening and unfastening a hook to the fastening member by rotating, and a rolling body which controls rotation of the lock lever in the releasing direction by moving into the path of rotation of the lock lever if the cabinet swings, thus preventing the open-close mechanism of the cabinet from opening in case of an earthquake or the like.
