UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CARL J. PRINZLER, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA, ASSIGNOB. T0 VONNEGUT HARD- WARE COMPANY, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA, A CORPORATION OF INDIANA.
STRIKE FOR DOORLOCKS.
Application filed June 3, 1925.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CARL J. PRINZLER,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Strike for Doorlocks, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to produce what may be termed a semi-yielding strike for door locks, especially useful in connection with doors having emergency boltretracting devices, the construction being such that, when the bolt has been partially retracted, but to an extent less than that required for release under ordinary pressures, the strike will yield and permit an opening of the door when the door is sub jected to excessive pressures. p
The accompanying drawings illustrate my invention.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a portion of an emergency exit door associated with my improved strike; and
Fig. 2 is a horizontal section through the strike and a co-operating bolt and door carrying the same.
In the drawings 10 indicates a box-like body having an integral face plate 11 and a wall or bar 12, the box-like portion of the body 10 being so formed as to receive the bolt or latch 13 of the lock carried by a door 1 1, and the active face of bar 12 being formed to co-act with the end or active face of bolt 13 to prevent opening of the door 14 when bolt 13 is in engagement with bar 12.
The bar 12 is not sufiiciently wide to extend to the face of face plate 11 and in the gap I mount a movable bar or strike 15, the active face of which supplements the active face of bar 12 and co-acts with the active end or face of bolt 13.
Serial No. 34,857.
The bolt 13 may be retracted by pressure upon the emergency bar 19.
Under ordinary conditions bar 19 must be depressed to its full extent so as to fully retract bolt 13, in order that the door may be opened, spring 16 being strong enough to otherwise prevent opening of the door under ordinary pressures.
In case of panics, however, it often occurs that bodies pile against the door without applying sufficient force to bar 19 to fully depress it but, in most instances the bar 19 will be substantially depressed so that the bolt will be retracted to a position ap proximating that indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 2.
Where an ordinary strike has been provided the door will not open because the latch or bolt is not sufficiently retracted, but with my strike in place it is apparent, that as soon as the bolt reaches the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2, the great pressure applied to the door will cause the bar 15 to yield to bolt 13 and permit the door to open without a complete retraction of the bolt. The construction is nevertheless such that, so far as external manipulation of the door is concerned, it is as firmly held closed, by reason of the co-action of bolt 13 with the fixed bar or strike 12, as though the yielding strike 15 were not provided.
I claim as my invention:
A door bolt strike comprising a main body having a rigid strike portion adapted to co-act with a movable lock element, a second strike portion supplementing the first strike portion, and means for yieldingly holding said second strike portion in normal bolt resisting position.
In witness whereof, I, CARL J. PRINZLER, have hereunto set my hand at Indianapolis, Indiana, this 1st day of June, A. D. one thousand nine hundred and twenty-five.
CARL J PRINZLER,
