ABSTRACT:
A push type temporary locking device with a catcher of a magnet used for locking a closed door of a cabinet for an electronic equipment or furniture or the like. This temporary locking device comprises a supporting box fixedly secured to a door mounting frame, a drive element attached with a catcher such as a magnet at its front end and slidably engaged within the supporting box, a driven element having at least two recesses symmetrically provided thereat and rotatably supported at the drive element, a rotating projection eccentrically contacting the driven element at the depressing end of the drive element into the supporting box, and a rotating and engaging extension eccentrically contacting the driven element to thereby retain the driven element when the drive element is slightly moved forwardly and to rotate itself into the guide groove. Thus, this locking device can be readily attached to the door mounting frame and can also be smoothly and exactly open or close the door attached to the door mounting frame merely by disposing the door at its closed position.
