  • Each jamb 1 includes: a recess 11 longitudinally recessed in a back portion of the jamb 1 to be engageable with each bracket 2 as pre-fixed on the vertical side wall V of the wall W, two grooves 12 respectively formed in opposite side portions of the jamb 1 to be respectively engaged with two adjustable covering plates 3, 3 as shown in Fig. 2, each groove 12 having a toothed portion 13 formed in an inner portion of the groove 12 adjacent to the wall W, and a groove bottom portion 14 for fixing a bolt or screw 24 through the groove bottom portion 14 for securing the jamb 1 to the bracket 2.
  • the toothed portion 13 in the groove 12 of the jamb 1 may be formed as saw-toothed portion or ratchet teeth in the inner portion of the groove 12, not limited in the present invention.
  • Each jamb 1, lintel 4 and adjustable covering plate 3 may be formed by extrusion molding process or other molding processes or processing methods.
  • the materials for making the jamb 1, lintel 4 and covering plate 3 may be made of plastic, aluminum alloy or any other suitable materials.
  • the jamb 1, lintel 4 and covering plate 3 may be formed as wooden surface on a plastic core or substrate. However, the materials and methods for making the elements of the present invention are not limited.
  • Each bracket 2 may be formed as a U-shaped bracket made of steel or metal alloys; or formed as a rectangular block made of wooden or other suitable materials to be pre-fixed or secured on the wall in order for securing the jamb 1 on the bracket 2.
  • the bracket 2 formed as U-shape as shown in Figs. 1 and 2 includes: a base 21 fixed on the vertical side wall V by bolts or screws 23, and a pair of extensions 22 protruding outwardly from opposite ends of the base 21 to be secured with two groove bottom portions 14, 14 of the jamb 1 to secure the jamb 1 on the wall W.
  • the wall W may be a hollow partition wall made of light steel or metal alloy
  • a steel frame Ws is formed on the vertical side wall V of the wall W, adapted to be well secured with the U-shaped bracket 2 by bolts 23 as shown in Fig. 2.
  • Each bracket 2 may be pre-cut with a plurality of elongate slot, either horizontally shaped as numeral 26, or inclined shaped as numeral 25 for slidably passing the bolt 23 through the slot 26, 25 for an adjustable fixation of the bracket 2 on the vertical side wall V of the wall W.
  • Each adjustable covering plate 3 includes: an engaging member 31 telescopically engaged with the groove 12 as formed in a side portion of the jamb 1, and a trimming member 33 integrally linked with the engaging member 31 and having a free end portion 331 of the trimming member 33 contacted, touched, or tightly limited on a wall surface of the wall W for shielding the aperture between the jamb 1 and the wall W for security and ornamental purposes.
  • the engaging member 31 is formed with an inside toothed portion 32 therein to be engaged with the toothed portion 13 formed in the groove 12 of the jamb 1, with the engaging member 31 of the covering plate 3 engaged with the groove 12 of the jamb 1 for concealing the bolt 24 which will not be revealed to or removed by an intruder once the covering plate 3 has covered the groove 12 of the jamb 1 and the wall W, leaving no aperture or space for removing the jamb 1.
  • the relevant parts of the covering plate 3 may also be coated with adhesive or sealant to firmly bond the covering plate 3 with the jamb 1 which has been firmly secured to the wall W.
  • door frame of the present invention is generally provided for interior partition wall within a house, its security factor may not be considered so seriously.
  • the jamb 1 or the covering plate 3 is formed by extrusion molding process or is extruded to contain void or hollow portion therein, it is so light and inexpensive for saving material and cost.
  • the present invention may therefore be suitable for adjustably accommodating a wall having variable thickness.
  • a thicker wall W having a thickness D1 may be well shielded by outwardly pulling (P) the covering plate 3 until a complete covering of the jamb and the wall; while a narrow thickness D2 of the wall W as shown in Fig. 3, the covering plate 3 may be pushed (P1) inwardly to allow the trimming member 33 of the covering plate 3 to contact the wall W, thereby well shielding any aperture between the wall W and the jamb 1.
  • the thickness D2 of the wall W is generally equal to the width of the recess 11 formed in the jamb 1.
  • the adjustable covering plate 3 includes a short engaging member 31 and a long engaging member 31a integrally formed with the short engaging member 31 to be a L shape, either short engaging member 31 or long engaging member 31 a having a toothed portion 32 formed on an inner portion of each engaging member 31 or 31 a to be alternatively engaged with the inside toothed portion 13 formed in the groove 12 of the jamb 1, whereby when it is provided for accommodating a wall having a narrow thickness D3 as shown in Fig. 5, the short engaging member 31 is engaged with the groove 12 of the jamb 1; and whereby when it is provided for accommodating a wall having a wide thickness D4 as shown in Fig. 6, the long engaging member 31a is then engaged with the groove 12 of the jamb 1.
  • Fig. 5 has been contracted from Fig. 4.
  • the adjustable covering plate 3 having the short engaging member 31 and the long engaging member 31a may be alternatively selected to be used for a narrower or a wider wall having varied thickness.
  • each engaging member 31 or 31a may be telescopically engaged with the groove 12 in the jamb 1, such as shown in dotted line in Fig. 6, for adjustably accommodating a still wider wall of thickness D5.
  • the present invention may provide a well adjustable doorframe for accommodating wall with varied thickness.
  • the jamb 1 is formed by molding or extrusion process to be uniform size.
  • the adjustable covering plates 3 may be telescopically engaged with the grooves 12 in the jamb 1 for adjusting the covering width or distance in between the two covering plates 3, 3 disposed on the jamb 1, like a "vise” (jamb) having a pair of “jaws” (covering plates) for adjustably clamping the opposite surfaces of a work piece having varied thickness.
  • the above-mentioned short engaging member 31 may be perpendicular to the long engaging member 31 a. Or, the two engaging members 31, 31a may define an angle therebetween.
  • the lintel 4 is horizontally coupled in between the two jambs 1, 1 by a pair of coupling members 5, 5.
  • the lintel 4 may also be secured to the horizontal top wall H of the doorway O.
  • Each coupling member 5 includes a horizontal tenon 51 engaged with a recess 41 as formed in the lintel 4, and a vertical tenon 52 engaged with a recess 11 formed in the jamb 1, so that the coupling member 5 may couple the lintel 4 with each jamb 1.
  • an adjustable horizontal covering plate 3a (Fig. 9 and dotted line in Fig. 7) may be provided for shielding an aperture between the lintel 4 and a horizontal top wall H of the doorway of the wall W.
