PUSHBUTTON LATCHING AND LOCKING ATTACHMENT Filed Aug. 4, 1964 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 United States Patent 3,283,608 PUSHBUTTON LATCHING AND LOCKING ATTACHMENT Charles C. Davis and Raymond L. Erickson, Brookfield, Wis, assignors to Cutler-Hammer, Inc, Milwaukee, Wis., a corporation of Delaware Filed Aug. 4, 1964, Ser. No. 387,346 4 Claims. (Cl. 74-527) This invention relates to a pushbutton latching and locking attachment for pushbutton control devices.
To prevent unauthorized operation of electrical control systems, and to afford protection to maintenance and service personnel, provision is often made for locking of the stop button of the usual pushbutton station in depressed, circuit interrupting position. Because of the circuitry normally employed, this prevents operation of the control system. Locking devices for this purpose have taken many different forms and the majority are built into the cover of the pushbutton station. This requires manufacture of separate covers to provide non-locking and locking types.
It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a pushbutton latching and locking attachment which can be readily afiixed to or detached from the enclosing cover of a pushbutton station without need for special tools.
A more specific object is to provide a device of the aforementioned character which can be secured to and removed from the cover of a pushbutton station by the insertion and removal of one of the cover securing screws, and which in pushbutton down latching position and securement of the padlock thereto blocks access to such cover screw or other fastening device by normally employed tools.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will hereinafter appear.
The accompanying drawings illustrate a preferred embodiment of the invention which Will hereinafter be de scribed in detail, it being understood that the embodiment illustrated is susceptible of modification in respect of details without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a front elevational view of a pushbutton control device having a lockable latching attachment secured thereto in accordance with the invention;
FIG. 2 is like FIG. 1, but shows the latching attachment locked in pushbutton latching position;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary side view of a pushbutton device, showing a similar view latching attachment;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along the line 44 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is a front view of the latching attachment, partially in section along the line 55 of FIG. 3;
FIG. 6 is like FIG. 5, but shows the attachment in latching position;
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary isometric view of a pushbutton device showing the latch in an intermediate position; and
FIG. 8 is an exploded view of the parts making up the latching attachment.
The drawing shows a pushbutton station comprising a metallic base or frame 10 having a U-shaped wrap-around cover 12 which is preferably formed of a molded insulating material. A dual momentary type switch 14 having separate actuators 14a and 14b is mounted on the inside of the base 10. Pushbuttons 16 and 18 are mounted in cover 12 and are biased outwardly thereof by springs 20. Integral projections 16a and 18a of the buttons aline with the switch actuators 14a and 14b, respectively, and push the latter inwardly upon depression of the ushbuttons.
ice
Cover 12 is secured to frame 10 by the screws 22 and 24 which penetrate openings in the front face of the cover and take into alined threaded openings in the integral downwardly and upwardly depending tabs 10a and 19b.
Screw 24 also secures to the front surface of cover 12 a locking latching attachment 26 which comprises the base 28, a latch 30 and a pivot pin 32. The base 28 has a portion 28a which seats against the indented front face of cover 12 and spaced apart portions 28b and 280. As best seen in FIGS. 5 to 8, portion 2812 has a rectangular notch 28d and portion 280 has a padlock hasp receiving opening 28c extending through its top and bottom surfaces. Alined openings 28 and 28g extend transversely through the portions 28b and 28c with the latter being of somewhat larger diameter than opening 28b. Opening 280 extends across the diameter of hasp opening 28e.
Latch 3! has a central portion 30:: and an integral button engaging 'arm 30b depending at an oblique angle from one end of the portion 30a, at the other end of portion 30a are spaced integrally formed lugs 3&0 and 300. having alined openings 30e and 30]. Pivot pin 32 extends through openings 30:: and 30 with a force fit and through openings 28 and 28g with a sliding and rotational fit. The shoulder formed by the meeting of the portion 32a and portion 32b of somewhat smaller diameter seats against the outer side of the lug 30d. The transverse thickness of the portions 30a and lug 30c is slightly less than the width of the notch 28d. A flange 30g extends at a right angle from and along one edge of the portion 30a and merges with a surface of arm 30b and lug 360.
As viewed in FIGS. 5, 6 and 8, the attachment is assembled by inserting the lugs 30c and 30d of latch 30 in the notch 28d and space formed between one portion 28a and the inner side of portion 28a of base 28 with the openings 30c and 30 alined with the openings 28 and 28g. Pin 32 is then inserted from right through the openings 28g and driven into the openings 30f and 30a with a force fit so that the aforementioned shoulder on pin 32 seats against the right-hand side of the lug 30d. Pin 32 is straight knurled along the pairs of portion 32b that engage within the openings 30c and 309 of latch 30 to provide a non-rotational force fit of pin 32 in latch 30.
Portion 28a of base 28 has a screw receiving openings 2811 to accommodate the screw 24. The ends of portion 28a are suitably notched so that the surface of the portion 280 will abut against the indented front surface of cover 12 when screw takes down into the threaded opening in tab 10b.
The free or non-latching position of the attachment is illustrated in FIG. 1 wherein latch 30 is centered between portions 28b and 280 and having a bias downwardly under the force of gravity clear of pushbutton 18. If latch 30 and shaft 32 are rotated to the positions shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 and the arm 30b pressed downwardly against pushbutton 18 until the lug 30c is alined with notch 28d, latch 30 and shaft 32 can then he slid to the left in the openings 28 and 28g to the positions depicted in FIGS. 2 and 6. Latch 30 :can then be released and it will stay in such position maintaining pushbutton 18 in depressed position. If the hasp 35a of a padlock 35 is inserted through opening 28e and locked as shown in FIG. 2, latch 30 will be locked in its pushbutton down, latching position. It will be observed that with the hasp 35a interposed in opening 28c pivot pin 32 cannot be driven to the right; its shouldered abutment against lug 30d prevents it being driven to the left.
It will be noted that in latched position that the lug 30d covers the greater portion of the head of the screw 24. As shown in FIG. 4, the clearance between lug 30d and the head of screw 24 makes it impossible to remove such screw in this position of the latch, assuming it is locked in such position. However, if the padlock is removed and latch 30 centered between the portions 28b and 28c and permitted to be pivoted by the outward movement of the pushbntton 18, screw 24 will then be accessible for withdrawal as by the use of a screwdriver depicted in FIG. 7.
It will be apparent from the foregoing that use of the pushbutton latching and locking attachment of the present invention is simple, and that its design, within limits of deliberate destruction, fails removal when placed in latched and effectively locked in such position by a suitable padlock. As is apparent from FIGS. and 6, the latch 30 can be locked in pushbutton latching position by padlocks having a Wide range of hasp cross sectional diameters without the latch being slidable to the right out of latching position.
We claim:
