Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to apparatus for locking a closure, for example a door such as a french window or patio door much may be a sliding closure.
- According to the invention there is provided apparatus for looking a sliding closure in any one of a plurality of positions, comprising facing keepers adapted for mounting on opposite frame parts of a frame for mounting the closure, each keeper having a plurality of facing means adapted to co-operate with slidable espagnolette rods, and lock means adapted to slide two espagnolette rods in opposite directions in order to engage with desired facing ones of the facing means.
- Each keeper may comprise three facing means.
- The facing means of one keeper may comprise parallel blind holes, which may be elongate, and the facing means of the other keeper may comprise three slots, each slot being aligned with a respective hole.
- The lock means may comprise a toothed gear which engages with engagement means of the espagnolette rods.
- The engagement means of each espagnolette rod may comprise a rack.
- The slidable locking means may comprise a stud or studs, say two studs, the or each of which has an enlarged head for engagement with the keeper which comprises a plate with one or more key-hole shaped slots for receiving the or each stud and in one position locking the head.
- The invention extends to a closure incorporating apparatus as hereinbefore defined.
- Apparatus embodying the invention is hereinafter described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
-
- Figs. 1 to 3 are respective plan, side elevational, and part sectional enlarged views of a keeper for a head and frame;
- Figs. 4 to 7 are respective plan, side elevational, end elevational and part sectional enlarged views of a keeper for a cill of a frame;
- Fig. 8 shows schematically a plan view of a lock with parts of the top plate removed to show the interior.
- Figs. 9 and 10 show end elevational views of a gear of the lock of Fig. 8; and
- Fig. 11 shows a exploded perspective view of locking apparatus of a sliding door and a striker plate arrangement for the locking apparatus, according to the invention.
- Referring to Figs. 1 to 3, the
head keeper 1 comprises a cast metal plate with three discrete facing means in the form of three elongateblind holes 2 withrounded ends 3 which are substantially parallel. Thekeeper 1 has aramp 4 inclined at 20° to provide for smooth passage of a closure, and countersunkholes 5 for receiving securing means such as screws whereby thekeeper 1 can be secured to a head frame part of a frame in which a slidable closure such as a patio door is mounted for sliding movement. - Referring now to Figs. 4 to 7, the
cill keeper 10 shown therein is similar to thehead keeper 1 in that it comprises a cast metal plate with three discrete facing means in the form of threeblind slots 11 withrounded ends 12, whichslots 11 are substantially parallel. Thekeeper 10 hasopposite ramps 13 inclined at 30° and inclined in opposite directions, at each end, andprojection 14 with abase 15 which is inclined at 16°s'to the horizontal in order to conform to cill formation. - The
holes 2 andslots 11 have identical widths, 9nm in the embodiment shown, and adjacent ones are separated by an identical distance, namely 5mm in the embodiment. - The facing means are "facing" in the sense that the
keepers - In use, the
keepers pairs - The espagnolette rods are locked by locking
apparatus 20 as shown in Figs. 8-11. - The
apparatus 20 hasseparate connectors espagnolette rods 25 and a slidable locking means in the form ofstuds 26 in ahousing 27 which studs 26 project from and are secured to therack 22, so that when the racks move in the direction of the arrow X, the studs move too. Theracks gears 28, which are turned in unison on insertion of a key in akey hole 29 of alock 30, there being the usual differ pins (not shown) for operation by the key to permit turning of the lock, a projectingshaft 31 of which engages in abush 32 to drive thegears 28 in unison, the gears being solid with the bush and each gear engaging in holes of both racks to drive same. - The
gear 28 andracks housing 27. Thehousing 27 have grooves in which the racks sent and which act as guides therefor. - The housing includes a
face plate 34 with spaced key-hole slots 35 through which heads of thestuds 26 project, the enlarged parts of theslots 35 enabling thestuds 26 to be passed through theface plate 34 as the studs are smaller in diameter than the diameter of the enlarged parts (which are essentially circular). The narrower part of each key-hole slot provides a guide for alimb 36 of eachstud 26 which is connected to arespective rack locking arrangement 20 is set in a slot or recess in the leading edge of the patio door with the face of thehousing 27 andface plate 34 with the key-hole slots 35 flush with that edge, so that there is a gap between the rear faces (to the left in Fig. 11) of the heads of thestuds 26 and the - leading edge. A
handle 37 with the key operatedlock 30 is mounted on an inner face of the door adjacent the leading edge so that theshaft 31 engages thebush 32 for turning thegears 28, and hence for raising and lowering thestuds 26, andespagnolette rods 25,in unison. There is also on the inside face of the door adead lock 38 which is essentially a slidable bolt which can be pushed under finger pressure to engage a hole of the upper rack to prevent operation of the whole locking mechanism. The door frame (not shown) includes astriker plate arrangement 39 set into a slot or recess so that key-hole slots 40 of astrike plate 41 of the arrangement are at the same vertical height as thekey hole slots 35 in theface plate 34. - The
strike plate 41 lies over an intermediate plate 42 havingelongate slots 43 which have a lateral extent at least as great as the diameter of the enlarged parts of thekey hole slots plates 41 and 42 are secured to a base plate 44. The threestriking plates adjustment screws 45, and the whole assembly orarrangement 39 is secured to the door frame byscrews 46 passing through alignedholes 47. - The arrangement is such that when the door is slid up to the frame in the fully closed position with the
studs 26 in the lower, unlocked position, the studs pass through the enlarged parts of the key-hole shapedslots 40, and into theslots 43. When the key is turned (anticlockwise in Fig. 11) to lock the door shut the shafts of thestuds 26 ride up the narrower parts of the key-hole slots studs 20 ride in theslots 43 and are held captive by thestriker plate arrangement 39, the rear surfaces of the heads being caught behind the parts of thestriker plate 41 flanking the narrower parts of the two key-hole slots 40. - At the same time, the
racks 21 and 23 move away from one another so that the espagnolette rods 25 move-upwardly and downwardly respectively to engage in upper and lower keepers. J The door is thus locked shut. Turning thelock 30 clockwise (Fig. 11) provides a reverse motion so the studs are aligned with the key hole slot enlargements, and theespagnolette rods 25 are lowered and raised respectively out of engagement with their keepers. The door is thus unlocked, and can be slid away from the striker plate arrangement to open the door. when it is desired to lock the door open, it is merely necessary to align the nose or leading edge of the door with thekeepers espagnolette rods 25 can engage in a desired facing pair of three pairs ofholes 2 andslots 11 so that on insertion of the key and turning it anti-clockwise as viewed raises therack 22 and lowers therack 23 to "throw" the connected espagnolette rods to engage in the respective head andcill keepers - The apparatus thus has a four-point locking action.
