Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closing bowl assembly for a closing bolt, such as a door latch or a dead bolt, for a door leaf or window leaf, as described in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the closing bowl has an edge or a wall which is situated at the opening side and constitutes a fixed or rigid stop for the bolt concerned, so that it cannot unintentionally and only through authorized operation, when retracting the bolt from the receiving space of the closing bowl, be moved to the outside along the surface facing the clear of the casing portion concerned.
  • the closing bowl is designed double for reception of both the dead bolt and the door latch.
  • the closing bowls are secured in the casing also by means of a screw extending through the bottom of one of the closing bowls.
  • the closing bowls are movably in swing direction attached to the closing plate by means of eccentric latches arranged on the closing plate and provided with a socket head hole. With the help of a little screw the position of the closing bowls on the closing plate is fixed. When adjusting, first said little screw is loosened and subsequently the closing bowls are moved over the wanted distance, while rotating the eccentric latches, after which the little screw is tightened again.
  • a drawback here is that the screw, with which the closing bowls are secured to the casing, impedes the moving and therefore may have to be loosened as well. Said closing bowl assembly further requires a lot of effort to manufacture and therefore is relatively expensive.
  • the invention has the object to provide a closing bowl assembly which is simple and can be adjusted continuously. To that end a closing bowl assembly is provided as described in claim 1.
  • the stop fastening means When a cover plate is absent the stop fastening means only need to be loosened a little, after which the adjustment can take place at the same location, in which the eccentric body can be kept in its place by the stop fastening means.
  • the rotation bearing means are at least partially formed by the stop fastening means, which with their heads fittingly engage in circular or conical surfaces in the eccentric body which are a part of the aforementioned concentric planes.
  • the stop fastening means such as screws, in particular their (conical) head here themselves form in a simple manner the point of rotation for the eccentric bodies. The length over which these screws may engage in the closing bowl may be maximal here.
  • the stop fastening means itself or the eccentric body with said bush portion extends in the elongated holes and is guided by it in swing direction.
  • the stop fastening means or the bush portion and thus the eccentric body remain in their places in vertical direction in a secure manner.
  • the eccentric body is provided with a receiving space for the end of a screw driver, in which the receiving space is situated adjacent to the passage, in particular adjacent to the space for the stop fastening means.
  • the eccentric body has a bore hole for fittingly leading through a fastening means such as a screw.
  • the inner surfaces of the bore hole may function here (as well) as the aforementioned concentric planes, possibly in addition to the planes abutting the head planes of the screw in radial direction.
  • stop means are formed on an elongated stop plate, which near its ends is provided with the stop fastening means and adjustment means.
  • the stop plate may be provided with a flanged stop extending in the closing bowl, in order to be able to offer a large stop surface, which is able to function reliably also after some usage deformation.
  • the stop plate preferably has been provided with an edge which at least extends over the closing bowl in longitudinal direction, behind which a hook-shaped bolt can engage.
  • the closing bowl assembly can also be used in contemporary window closure constructions, in which during the rotation of the handle of the window one or several catches rotate into an accompanying closing bowl.
  • the bolt has an additional enclosing function in the form of a hook, which hooks behind the stop plate in the closing bowl and in opening direction is stopped by a stop plate adjusted at the correct position, so that banging is prevented.
  • the stop plate is provided with such an edge at two opposite sides, so that the same closing bowl assembly -in contrast to the state of the art - is suitable for windows swinging to both the left or to the right.
  • stop fastening means are part of the closing bowl fastening means.
  • stop fastening means are screws.
  • Both end parts 12, 13 are connected to each other by an intermediate or stop part 20, which comprises a raised longitudinal wall 21, as well as flanged end walls 21a, 21b.
  • the inwardly turned surface 11 of the wall 21 serves as stop for the dead bolt.
  • FIGS 3A and 3B one of the two identical eccentric adjustment cams 30 is shown, which each comprise a plate 31 and a bush 32 and which have been made of metal.
  • a continuous circle cylindrical bore hole 33 is arranged in the plate 31 and the bush 32 .
  • an enlarged recess 34 is arranged in the entrance of the bore hole 33, in which recess the head of a screw can be accommodated, so that said screw does not project from the plate 31.
  • the plate 31 is furthermore provided with a slot 35, in which the head of a screw driver fits.
  • the stop plate 10 is placed on the closing bowl 1, and the adjustment cams 30 are placed such that they extend through the elongated holes 14, 15 and in the holes 4, 5 with their bushes.
  • the bushes 32 have such a diameter that they are accommodated in the holes 4, 5 in a snugly fitting manner.
  • the plates 31 of the adjustment cams 30 here lie on the seats 16, 17, with a - seen in the direction A - snug fitting between the opposite portions of the raised edges 18, 19.
  • the walls 21, 21a, 21b extend until in the bowl 8.
  • the closing bowl assembly is shown without cover plate 22, and in figure 5B with cover plate 22.
  • the adjustment or setting of the position of the stop plane 11 in relation to the closing edge in the casing can take place in various manners. According to a first manner, when a cover plate is present, both said screws are removed in order to be able to remove the cover plate. Because the adjustment cams 30 extend in the holes 4, 5 with their bushes 32 and the closing bowl 1 as usual will have been accommodated in the casing with some friction, in which the closing bowl 8 itself will also be supported in the casing, the closing bowl 1 and the stop plate 10 will remain in their places.
  • a stop plate having portions for attachment to the closing bowl at both ends, renders it possible to adapt it for use in a window closure in which the window handle or the system of window handles has been provided with hook-shaped bolts.
  • both end members 112, 113, as shown in figure 6, are further continued to the inside, in order to form a wall in mounted situation extending into the closing bowl in front of the opening, behind which wall the hook-shaped bolt can engage.
  • the stop plane 111 may be adjusted to the correct position again here in the manner described above. By providing such a confining wall both at the upper end and the lower end, such a stop plate 100 can be used for windows swinging to both the left or to the right, with the correct position of the stop plane.
  • the closing bowl 201 forms a trough-shaped bowl 208, of which the bottom 206 is closed.
  • the bowl 208 is bounded by walls 207, which connect the end members 202 and 203 to each other.
  • the closing bowl 201 is also provided with ribs 241, as well as with holes 240 along one longitudinal wall 207 for screws extending through the casing with which screws the closing bowl, if necessary, is (additionally) secured to the casing.
  • the closing plate or stop plate 210 shown in figures 8A-C is flat and therefore does not have a portion extending in the bowl 208.
  • the stop plate 210 has an elongated continuous opening 210a for for instance a bolt, and is bounded towards two longitudinal sides by stop edges 211.
  • recesses 216, 217 are formed, which in this example are entirely bounded by an edge 218 and 219, respectively, which each consist of two opposite (vertical) straight edge portions 218a, 218b and 219a, 219b, respectively, for horizontally confining the eccentric bodies and their vertical guidance during rotation, and two opposite circular edge portions 218c, 218d and 219c, 219d, respectively.
  • elongated holes 214, 215 are formed, which are more narrow than the elongated holes 14 and 15 of the example given earlier.
  • the width of the elongated hole is adjusted such to the screw that it can extend through it in a snugly fitting manner.
  • the centre point of the curve of the edge members 218c, 219c lies on the opposite edge of the elongated hole 214, 215.
  • the eccentric body 230 is shown, which is formed by a flat disk 231, without a protruding bush, and is provided with a receiving space 233 determined by a conical circumferential edge 234, which receiving space is meant for a conical screw head, and apart from that is provided with a slot 235 closed at the ends for the accommodation of the head of a screw driver.
  • the diameter of the disk 231 is similar to the mutual distance between the edges 218a, 218b and 219a, 219b, respectively.
  • the axis N of the passage for the screw is at an eccentricity e in relation to the centre point M of the disk 231.
  • the arc of the circle of the disk 231 is similar to the arcs of circle of the edge portions 218c, d and 219c, d.
  • the radiuses may be 7.25 mm here, e 2 mm and the length of the edge portions 218a, b and 219a, b 4 mm, that is to say 2e.
  • the passage in the disk 231 has a diameter of 5 mm at the bottom and a diameter of 9.5 mm at the top.
  • the screw used here has a similar head and a shank of for instance 4.5 mm outer diameter.
  • the stop plate 210 and two eccentric bodies 230 are secured to each other by screwing while self-tapping of attachment screws having an oblique head.
  • the attachment screws can be further tightened in order to also secure the closing bowl to the casing in that way.
  • the attachment screws are very slightly rotated backwards (for instance a quarter of a turn) until the eccentric bodies 230 can be rotated.
