FASTENING DEVICE.
Application filed October 13, 19-23.
This invention comprises a locking device. While it is unrestricted in its application, it hasbeen found especially useful in connection with the securing together of two members, one of which has a swinging movement in relation to the other.
It is contemplated among the objects of the invention to provide a device of this character which may be made from a single piece of material bent into shape or stamped and having contiguous ends properly secured together as by welding or the like, to form a unitary latch member in the form of a loop or closed ring-like structure; wherein a portion of this loop member will be pivotally and slidably mounted so that it may be slidably brought into position to engage a latch or lug on a member to be secured, and then bent or swung down to lock the parts together, the weight of a portion of the latch acting to maintain the parts locked until operated by simply turning up the loop and moving it back from the lug.
Other objects and advantages will be brought out more clearly in the description which follows.
A drawing illustrating an embodiment of the invention is hereto attached, the following views being shown:
Figure 1, is a fragmentary view in side elevation showing my invention utilized as a locking means for a car door, the parts being in locked position in full lines and in open position in dotted lines;
Fig. 2, is a view in end elevation showing the parts in locked position.
In these views, 1 designates a door, pivotally mounted upon a pintle 2, by hinges 3, and having swinging movement in relation to a member with which it is adapted to be secured. In this instance a frame, support, or body, 4 is shown. The door carries lugs, projections or elongated portions 5, extendk therefrom beyond the plane of the face of frame and bent as at 6 to form an ear or keeper.
' With this keeper there is adapted to 00-' hearing porand slidably to the frame operate a latch comprising a tion 7, adapted to be pivotally m n ed in a b ari 3 9Pred Serial No. 668,450.
and in approximate alignment with the inner surface of the bent portion of lugs or keepers 6. Extending at an angle to this bearing portion there is an arm 9, which forms, together with the bearing portion, a latch or lock for the lugs 6 when the arm 9 has been slid into forward position to engage and embrace a lug or keeper on the swinging door.
Extending backwardly from arm 9 there is a handle portion 10, set at an angle to arm 9 and at its opposite end bent and extended into engagement with hearing portion 7 to consitute a short arm 11 which acts as a stop when the latch member is in its forward or looking position.
The entire latch member is preferably formed as a unitary structure and mounted so that when in looking position, arm 9 will snugly embrace lug or keeper 6, and when swung down by handle portion 10, will, by the weight of the parts, remain in locked position, the latch itself constituting a closed loop or ring-shaped member. To unlock, it is merely necessary to swing the arm 9 upwardly into the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1, and move the loop backward on its sliding hearing. In a structure of the type shown a locking member may be advantageously placed on each side as illus trated in Fig. 2.
It will be understood that I do not wish to limit myself to the precise form of this disclosure nor to its particular adaptation for use as a closure for a car door, as many changes in the structural arrangement of the parts and the uses to which it may be put are contemplated as within the scope of the invention as set forth in the claims.
What I claim is:
1. A locking device comprising cooperating members, one of which comprises an extended portion and keeper arranged on a device to be looked; a mounting for a hearing operatively associated with the keeper; a loophaped member having a portion mounted in the bearing and adapted for slidable and rotatable movement therein; and an arm on the bearing portion of the loopshaped member adapted to be swung into engagement with the keeper,
2. A. locking device comprising eooperati ng members one of which comprises an extended portion and keeper arranged on a device to be locked; a mounting for a bear- 6 ing operatively associated with the keeper;
a loop-shaped member having a portion and adapted for mounted in the bearing slidable and rotatable movement therein; an arm on the bearing portion of the loopshaped member adapted to be swung into engagement with the keeper, and a handle member for operating the arm.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
JOHN J. DOUGHERTY.
