Abstract
A locking device for a door (3) of a container that is pivotable around a hinge with a first locking part (5) arranged stationary on the container, and a coupling pin (7) connected to the door (3). The coupling pin acts together with the first locking part (5) in an interlocking manner. Such that a simple adjustment of the door (3) is possible, it is provided that the first locking part (5) is attached outside the container on a mounting plane (6) which is integral with the container in the over-lapping area of the door (3), the coupling pin (7) is stroke-changeably mounted in a pin holding device (25), and that the coupling pin (7) has a first adjustment device (27) on its top end pointing to the rocker arm (18), with which, by action of an adjusting tool, which can be inserted into the locking piston (13) from the rocker arm, the depth of engagement of the coupling pin (7) into the first locking part ( 5), which determines the play between the container and the door (3), is changeable.
