Definitions

  • This invention relates to a handle and mechanism for the release of a latch retaining a closure member in a position in which it closes an opening in a structure, wherein the closure member is movable to and fro across the opening and may, additionally, be movable into and out of the opening.
  • a closure member is hereinafter referred to as "a closure member of the type described”.
  • An example of a closure member of the type described, a corresponding structure and an opening therein is provided by a vehicle having a door opening and a door slidable to and fro across the opening.
  • the door may be movable into and out of the opening as well as across it.
  • the door and the vehicle at the opening are provided with co-operating latch components for retaining the door in its closed position across, or across and in, the opening.
  • Interior and exterior handles are provided whereby the latch may be released from inside or outside the vehicle to enable the door to be opened.
  • a closure member which in use closes an opening in a structure and is movable to and fro across the opening, and may also be movable into and out of the opening, has a latch releasably engageable with a latch member on or adapted to be mounted on, the structure to retain the closure member in one position relative to the opening, a handle movable between first and second positions connected to the latch by connecting means for operating the latch, and is characterised in that biassing means acts on the handle to bias it to the first position and the connecting means is operated to release the latch by movement of the handle to the second position against the bias of the biassing means whereby the closure member is free in use to be drawn across the opening and to be so drawn by the continued application of force in the same sense on the handle.
  • the handle may be pivotally mounted on the closure member or may be slidably mounted relative thereto.
  • the handle may be mounted so as to be movable between first, second and third positions such that force applied to the handle to move it to the third position against the bias causes release of the latch, or release of a further latch carried by the closure member and operatively connected to the handle, which latch or further latch is adapted to co-operate with a further latch member on the structure to retain the closure member in another position relative to the opening, whereby the closure member can be drawn across the opening and, in use, is so drawn by the continued application of force in the same sense to the handle.
  • a vehicle comprising a structure having an opening, a latch member fixed on the structure, a door for closing the opening, means supporting the door on the structure and guiding the door for sliding movement across the opening between first and second positions in which the door respectively covers and uncovers the opening, the door having a latch releasably engageable with the latch member to retain the door in one of its first and second positions and a handle movable between first and second positions connected to the latch by connecting means for operating the latch, and characterised in that biassing means acts on the handle to bias it to its first position and the connecting means is operated to release the latch by movement of the latch to its second position against the bias of the biassing means whereby the door is free to be drawn across the opening and to be so drawn by the continued application of force in the same sense on the handle.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 of the drawings there is shown parts of one side of a van which has been made with a standard door having a window and housing the usual window winding gear.
  • the usual upper and lower hinges by which the door is secured to the vehicle, adjacent the front edge of the door, have been substituted by a sliding door gear.
  • the sliding door gear comprises an upper guide 1, a lower guide, not shown, located below the sill, and an intermediate guide 2. These guides are secured in parallel spaced relationship on the vehicle body.
  • a bracket 3 at the top of the door carries a roller 3′ which is engaged in the upper guide 1.
  • a bracket 4 and arm 5 carry a roller, not shown, which is engaged in the lower guide.
  • the upper and lower guides have inwardly curved front end portions to guide the front edge of the door 6 into the door opening in the vehicle body.
  • a lock plate 7 at the rear edge of the door 6 is pivotally connected to an arm 8 which is pivotally connected to a guide member 9 slidable along the intermediate guide 2.
  • a door handle 11, see Figure 3, is pivotally mounted so as to be movable through a small arc forwardly and rearwardly as will be described in further detail with reference to Figure 4.
  • a rearwards force i.e. a force directed towards the rear of the vehicle
  • a rearwards force applied to the handle 11 causes release of a door latch, not shown, of standard type and a continued force in the same direction causes the door to be moved out of the opening, through the hinging action of the plate 7 and arm 8 and the movement of the rollers along the curved portions of the upper guide 1 and lower guide.
  • the pivoted handle 11 may also be used on a conventional vehicle sliding door which is externally mounted and moves to and fro across a door opening without entering into the opening, or on any other closure member which is slidable across an opening and is latched in a position relative thereto.
  • the handle 11 is pivotally carried in a mounting 13 which is secured on the outside of the door 6.
  • An arm 14 fixed to the handle 11 extends through a slot in a plate 15 secured to the inside of the door 6.
  • Helical tension springs 18, 19 at opposite sides of the free end of the arm 14 are connected respectively between pegs 16, 17 on the plate 15 and the arm 14 and bias the handle 11 to a first position from which it is pivotable rearwardly (of the vehicle) to a second position and forwardly to a third position.
  • a rod 20 is connected at one end to the free end of the arm.
  • the window winding gear comprises, as shown in Figure 4, a toothed quadrant 21, an arm 22 and a stud shaft 23 for a winding handle, not shown.
  • a lever 24 is pivotally mounted on the stub shaft 23 and has the opposite end of the rod 20 connected to it.
  • An operating rod 25 for the door latch has its forward end connected to the lever 24 through a lost motion connection at 26.
  • a second latch 27, for latching the door 6 in an open position, is mounted inside the door and has an operating lever 28 which is connected to the lever 24 by a connecting rod 29.
  • This latch also has an operating handle 31.
  • a plate 32, indicated in broken lines, retains the lever 24 on the stub shaft 23 and provides a mounting for the latch 27.
  • the 'B' post 33 of the vehicle body at the rear edge of the door opening has secured to it a standard latch pin 34 with which the door latch engages (ie, the door latch which is operated by the operating rod 25).
  • a similar latch pin 35 is secured to the vehicle body in front of the intermediate guide 2.
  • the opening movement of the door is terminated when the latch pin 35 enters the second latch 27 which then closes to retain the door 6 in the open position.
  • operation of handle 31 from inside the vehicle will cause the second latch 27 to open and at the same time release the door latch by way of the lever 28, the connecting rod 29, the lever 24 and the operating rod 25.
  • the handle 31 may then be used to push the door rearwards until the second latch 27 and the latch pin 35 engage.
  • Co-operating docking members for example a tapered head pin at the front of the door which enters a tube at the front of the door opening as the door approaches the fully closed position, may be provided to assist location, or location and retention, of the door in the opening.
  • Docking means may be provided to assist stability of the door in the open position.
  • An example of such a docking means might be a tube with a conical opening mounted inside the door so that as the door approaches the fully open position the latch pin 34 enters the tube, so helping to locate the front end of the door.
  • FIG. 6 a modified mechanism is illustrated schematically for operation of the door latch where this is used for latching the door in both closed and open positions.
  • the arm 14 is shown between upper ends of a member 36 of generally inverted T-shape and a lever 37.
  • the T-shaped member 36 has a stem 38 to which the forward end of the operating rod 25 is pivotally connected, and a cross-piece 39 which is engaged between rollers 41 mounted on the door so that the T-shaped member 36 is slidable to and fro.
  • the lever 37 is pivotally mounted at 42 and its lower end is forked to fit over the operating rod 25 and rounded to engage a collar 43 on that rod.
  • Rearward pivoting of the handle 11 to release the door latch causes the arm 14 to pivot forwardly so that it engages the stem 38 of the T-shaped member 36 to slide that member forwards, thus pulling the operating rod 25 and releasing the latch.
  • Forward pivoting of the handle 11 causes rearward pivoting of the arm 14 whereby the lever 37 is pivoted in a clock-wise direction (as drawn).
  • the lower end of the lever 37 engages the collar 43 and pulls the operating rod 25 to release the door latch so that the door can be drawn forwards from its latched open position.
  • the biassing springs 18, 19 which act on the arm 14 have been omitted from Figure 6 for clarity.
  • handle 11 Whilst the handle 11 has been described as being pivotally mounted it will be appreciated that it could readily be slidably mounted so as to be slidable a short distance forwards and rearwards (or up and down if used on a vertically moving closure member) to release the relevant latch and then draw the door across the opening.
