U D: STATES PATENT OFFICE FLETCHER D. GBUND, OF WESTON, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO THE AMERICAN SWISS COMPANY,
1 OF TOLEDO, OHIO, A CORPORATION OF OHIO noon LATCH Application filed October 21,
This invention relates to door latches of the type commonly'used on automobiles.
An object of this invention is to provide a door latch which is sturdy in construction, and inexpensive to manufacture. k
Another object of this invention is to produce a door lock of the sliding bolt type'having a dogging member which-is slidable in a plane pa rallel to the bolt for preventing withdrawal of the bolt by manipulation of the outside retracting means.
Other objects will appear as the description proceeds.
In one aspect, this invention provides a sliding dogging member movable in a plane parallel to the movement of the sliding bolt for preventing manipulation of the outside retracting means. The dogging member may be actuated to dogging position by actuation of the inside retracting means in a direction opposite to that of retracting the bolt. It has been found that a sliding dogging member mounted in the above manner lends itself admirably to use in automobile doors because a compact construction is produced which occupies a minimum amount of space.
Furthermore, this construction may be cheaply manufactured in large quantities so that the unit may be sold at a price lower than any similar lock on the market, of which I am aware. 1
. The invention is shown by way of illustration in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is an elevation of a remote control door lock of the pull type, with the cover plate removed; Fig. 2 is a top edge view ofthe lock shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a section on the line 33 of Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is an elevation of a remote control latch of the rotary type, embodying the invention; Fig. 5 is a top edge view of the lock shown in Fig. 4; Fig. (i is a section on the line 6-6 of Fig. 4; Fig. 7 is an elevation of another form of latch embodying the invention; Fig. 8 is a top edge View of the latch shown in Fig. 7: Fig. 9 is a section on the line 99 of Fig. 7; Fig. 10 is an elevation of another form of latch simi lar to that shown in Figs. 7 to '9, embodying an arm 19 engageable with an extension 20 of 1926. Serial No. 143,028.
- the bolt in opposite direction.- For yieldingly holding the bolt 3 in operative or extended position, a coil spring 6 has one -end fixed to the back plate and the free end thereof bears against anabutment 7 on the bol In order to retract the bolt 3 from the inside of the automobile, a plate 8 is provided in horizontally spaced relation to the plate 1, and a lever 9 is pivotally connected at its lower portion to the plate 8 by a stud 10. Formed in the lever 9 intermediate the ends is a vertically elongate .slot 11 into which a pin 12 projects. The pin 12 is carried by a horizontally disposed link' 13 which has a horizontal elongate slot 14: intermediate its ends. stud 15 which is fixed to thebolt 3 so that by swinging the lever 9 in a clockwise direction the outer end of the slot 14 will engage the stud 15, and retract the bolt 3 against the tension of the coil spring 6. j
In order to retract the bolt 3 from the outside of the automobile, a hub 16 is rotatably mounted on the back plate 1, and a shaft 17 projects into the squared opening 18 in the hub. By means of a handle secured to the outer end of the shaft 17. the hub may be rotated. Projecting from the hub 16 is the bolt 3, so thatby rotating the hub'in a. clockwise direction (Fig. 1) it will be seen that the bolt 3 may be retracted. This formof retracting means is usually'termed a roll back. v j I o In accordance with thepi'e'sent invention, a sliding dogging member or-pawl '21 is em ployed for movement to a position toprevent retraction of the bolt by the roll back. The dogging member 21 Projecting into the slot 14 is a,
is disposed in a plane parallel to the plane of movement of the bolt 3. It will be observed that this dogging member is arranged in close relation to the bolt so that a compact arrangement is pro-' vided. As shown, this member is mounted for horizontal sliding movement and the rear portion of this member is guided between the upper lug 4 and a lug 22 projecting from the back plate 1.- The forward end portion may rest upon and be guided by the forward end portion of the bolt 3, although this arrangement is not always desirable. The forward end portion of the dogging member 21 is adapted to be extended into the path of movement of a lug 23 projecting from the hub 16. When the dogging member is moved todogging position, operation of the roll back is positively prevented.
Intermediate the ends of the dogging member 21 is formed a horizontal elongate slot 24 into which a guiding stud projects from the plate 1. It will thus be seen that movement of the dogging member 21 is guided by the lug 25, slot 24, lugs 4 and 22, and, un-
der some circumstances, the upper edge of the locking bolt 3. Formed in the lower portion of the dogging member 21 is a relatively short horizontal elongate slot 26 into which extends a pin 27 on the connecting link 13.
In the operation of the above described latch, when the lever arm 9 is rocked in a clockwisedirection (Fig. 1), the pin 27 first engages the inner end of the slot 26, and retracts the dogging member 21 from locking position; Further movement of the lever arm 9 brings the outer end of the elongate slot 14 into engagement with the stud 1'5, and thereafter the bolt 3 is retracted. By this arrangement movement of the lever arm 9 to the right first retracts the dogging member 21. and subsequent to this operation, the bolt- 3 is withdrawn.
To move the dogging member 21 to locking position so that operation of the outside retracting means is prevented,,the lever arm 9 is moved to the left in a counter clockwise direction (Fig. 1) to bring the pin 27 first into engagement with the outer end of the slot 26, and further movement serves to slide the dogging member 21 horizontally to the left into dogging position. It will thus be seen that slight movement of the lever arm 9 to the so that the bolt may be conveniently retracted without the operator assuming an uncomfortable position. The above described arrangement is also known as a pull type of latch in which a lever is employed for retracting the bolt. i
A further type of the remote control is cured to the opposite side of the plate 8.
In this construction it will be seen that by rotation of the shaft 31 in a counter clockwise direction, (Fig. 4) the bolt may be retracted, subsequent to the withdrawal of the dogging member from latching position.
Rotation of the shaft 31 in a clockwise direction moves the-dogging member to latching position. As the remainder of this construction is the same as that above described. further description will not be given.
In the form of the invention shown in Figs. 7 to 9, inclusive, the bolt 3 projects through a flange 2 on the back plate 1 as in the forms above described. The rear end portion of the bolt is guided by lugs 4 projecting outwardly from the back plate 1 and a coiled spring 6 serves to hold the bolt 3 projected. The bolt 3 is formed with a horizontal elongate slot 33 having an outwardly extending lug 34 at the inner end thereof. The inner part of the dogging member 35 is depressed to providea portion 36 which protrudes into the slot 33, and theend of this member is turned outwardly .to form an abutment 38 which is adapted to engage the projection 34.
Q For actuating the dogging member 35 and retracting the bolt 3 an arm 39 fixed to a shaft 40 extends upwardly and the outer portion lies over the depressed portion 36. Formed in the arm 39 is a longitudinally elongated slot 41 into which extends a pin on the dogging member \Vhen the arm 39 is moved to the left (Fig. 7) the dogging member is positively actuated into the path of movement of the lug 23 so that manipulation of the roll back is prevented. By rocking the arm 39 to the right the dogging member 35 is first withdrawn from latching position and thereafter the abutment 38 is moved into engagement with the lug 34 on the bolt so as to retract the bolt.
. Figures 10 and 11 show a latch similar to that shown in Figs. 7 to 9. but instead of employing an arm 39, a lever arm 43 is provided for retracting the bolt and. actuating the dogging member to and from latching lfll position. The lever arm 43 is vertically disinto which a pin on the dogging member projccts. For holding the lever arm in neutral position and, preventrattling, a leaf spring is fixed at -16 to the top plate 47 and engages the arm -13 through a slot 48.
" ment of said roll back,
In each of the described embodiments of the invention, there is shown a sliding pawl or dog which is movable in a plane parallel to'the plane of movement of the bolt. The pawl, when in operative position, prevents manipulation of the roll back, or outside retracting means and this member is moved to sucll position by rocking movement of the main operating means in a direction opposite to the direction of movement employed for wlthdrawing the bolt. Attention 15 also drawn to the feature by which the dogging.
member is moved away from latching position in the same d rection as the bolt by no special manipulation of the main controlling lever on shaft, the dogging member being first retracted and subsequently the bolt.
