1300B RETAINER.
Application filed August 29, 1925. Serial No. 53,330.
This application relates to a door retainer of the type wherein a lug carried by the door of an automobile is engaged between and held by metallic strips or guards which cover the adjacent opposed surfaces of two blocks of rubber or other resilient material. My improved construction embodies some of the features disclosed in and covered by my copending application tor door retainer, Ser. No. 635,065, filed April 27, 1923.
@ne of the objects of the present invention is to provide a door retainer of this general type which is particularly adapted for use with automobile bodies formed of steel. in pursuance of this general object the invention resides in certain novel and improved details of construction as hereinafter fully set forth. Further objects 01 the invent-ion willbe apparent from the following specitication and claims.
in the accompanying drawing, 1 have shown one embodiment or the invention, but it will be understood that the drawing is for illustrative purposes only and that various changes and substitutions may be made within the scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Of the drawing:
Fig. 1 is an elevational view of a door retainer embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a side view.
Fig. 3 is a plan view.
Fig. 4 is a horizontal sectional view taken along the 'line 44 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is a horizontal sectional view taken along the line 55 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 6 is a vertical sectional view taken along the line 6-6 of Fig. 1.
Figs. 7, 8 and 9 are detail perspective views of separate parts of the door retainer.
Fig. 10 is a perspective view of the retain; ing lug which is adapted to besecured to the door and to 00 perate with the door retainer shown in the other figures.
The door retainer comprises six pieces as follows: A sheet metal casing 1; a sheet metal block holder 2; two blocks 3, 3 of rubber or other resilient material; and two sheet metal guard strips 4, 4.
The sheet metal block holder 2 comprises a back plate 5, top and bottom walls 6 and 7 and also top and bottom front wings 8 and 9 which assist in retaining the holder in place in the casing as will presently ap- "The guards 4, 4 are shaped to fit around the respective blocks 3, 3, the said guards being provided with ears 12, 12 adapted to lit in back of the lugs 10, 10. In this way the guards 4, 4, together with the blocks 3, 3,
- are lirmly held in place in the holder 2. lit
will be observed from an inspection of Fig. 6 that the blocks 3, 3 are slightly wider than the guards 4, 4 thus making it possible for the guards to remain out of direct contact with any o1 the metallic parts of the device except the beforementioned lugs 10, 10;
The casing 1 comprises a single piece of metal which is bent into box-like form, ex-
tending entirely around the holder 2 and the other parts'ot the device. The casing includes a back wall 13, two aligned side walls 14, 14, two aligned front walls 15, 15, two other aligned side walls 16, 16 and a cover plate 17. it will be understood from an inspection of the drawing that a central space or recesses is formed between the respective walls 14, 14, 15, and 16, 16, this space being wide enough to permit the retaining lug on the door to enter between the guards 4, 4 and the blocks 3, 3. Preierably the cover plate'l? is flanged over at 18 to surround and cover the edges of the back plate 13. As illustrated-a counter-punched hole 19 is provided in the cover plate, the back plate 13 having a recess'20 to provide clearance for the inward bent metal surrounding the said hole. p
The two front walls 15, 15 are extended upward and downward respectively to cover the wings 8 and 9 otthe holder 2. These walls are flanged over at the top and bottom as shown at 21, 21 to cover the ends of the said wiiigs. preferably provided with counter-punched holes 22, 22, and the holder 2 is provided with holes 23, 23,.large enough to provide clearance for the inward turned metal surrounding the said holes 22, 22; The side walls 16, 16 are extended upward and downward to form walls 16, 16" adjacent the upper and lower parts of the said front walls The said front walls are clearly shown in Fig. 4, instead of exactly a 15, 15. It will be observed that the walls 16, 1t are preferably slightly inclined, as
being in alignment with the walls 16, 16.
In Fig. 10, I have shown a door retaining lug 24 which is provided with wings 25, 25 whereby it may be secured in proper position on an automobile door.
In use the door retainer is secured to the pillar or door frame of an automobile body y means of screws or rivets extending through the counter-punched holes 19 and 22, 22. The lug 24 is suitably secured to the door at such an elevation that'the lug enters between the sheet metal guards 4., 4 of the retainer when the door is closed. It will be understood that the lug 24 is slightly wider than the normaldistance between the said guards so that the lug serves to force the guards apartthus compressing the blocks 3, 3. When the guards are forced apart as described the cars 12, 12 are moved out of contact with the lugs 10, 10 and, therefore, in the operative positionthe said lugsare entirely out of contact with other metallic parts of the retainer, thus eliminating all possibility of rattles or squeaks.
What I claim is:
1. In a door retainer, the combination of a block holder having a back plate and top and bottom walls, two opposed separated resilient blocks located between the said top and bottom walls, two separate metallic ards respectively extending over the adacent opposed surfaces of the two blocks and adapted to receive a door retaining lug between them, and a centrally recessed casmg comprising a single sheet of metal bent to surround the before named parts at the back, front and sides thereof.
2. In a door retainer, the combination of a block holder having a back plate and top and bottom walls, two opposed separated resilient blocks located between the said top and bottom walls, two separate metallic guards respectively extending over the adacent opposed surfaces of the two blocks and adapted to receive a door retaining lug between them, and a centrally recessed casmg comprisin a single sheet of metal bent to surround t e before named parts at the back front and sides thereof, the back wall of thelcasin being extended at one side and the casing eing also formed with a cover plate extending laterally over the said extended part. i
. 3. In a door retainer, the combination of a block holder having a back late, top and bottom walls and top and ottom front wings, two opposed separated resilient blocks located between the said top and bottom walls, two separate metallic guards respectively extending over the ad acent opposed surfaces of the two blocks and adapted to receive a door retaining lug between them, and a casing comprising a single sheet of metal bent to surround the before named parts at the back, front and sides thereof, the front wall of the said casing being extended upward and downward to cover the said wings-of the holder.
l. In a door retainer, the combination of a casing, a block holder within the casing having a back plate and top and bottom walls, two opposed separated resilient blocks located between the said top and bottom walls, and two separate metallic guards respectively extending over the adjacent opposed surfaces of the two blocks and adapted to receive a door. retaining lug between them, the said guards engaging the holder and serving to maintain the blocks in place therein.
6. In a door retainer, the combination of a casing, a block holder within the casing having a back plate and top and bottom walls, two oppositely extendinglugs on the top and bottom walls respectively, two opposed separated resilient blocks located be tween the said top and bottom walls and respectively fitting between the corresponding lugs, and two separate metallic guards narrower than the blocks and respectively extending over the adjacent opposed surfaces of the two blocks and adapted to receive a door retaining lug between them, each of the said guards having two ears normally engaging the corresponding lugs and serving to maintain the blocks in place therein, the
