Door latch mechanism such as used for the door of an automobile is designed to be locked frequently to prevent unauthorized admission by means of the door to the automobile. In order that a separate lock mayl be dispensed with to eliminate the necessity of providing suitable openings in the door and the like, I have provided a locking mechanism which may becontained within the handle of the'door and which may be substituted in the standard form of door by removing the present handle and replacing by, my 1mwhich will mechanically lock upon movement proved handle and lock therein and in addition thereto in some cases I may provide a lock operated by the handle but acting directly upon parts of the latch mechanism to prevent movement thereof. And in each of these cases, I provide a simple construction which may be locked when the handle is in one certain pre-determined position to which it may be moved by the one desirin to lock the car, and although not necessary prefer to provide a spring plunger type of lock of the handle into the pre-determined position whereby no key is necessary for locking the door but is merely necessary for unlocking the same; and the following is a detailed description of the present embodiment of this invention illustrating the preferred means by which these advantageous results may be ao complished.
lVith reference to the drawings, 16 designates the portion of a door which may be that of an automobile door with a latch-bolt 17 extending therefrom and moved into the eX- tended position by spring 18 fastened upon a suitable portion of the door or latch-bolt mechanism as at 19. The latch-bolt is provided with a lug 20 having an abutment surface 21 to be engaged by the projection 22 mounted upon the member 23 and having a square opening 24 to receive the correspondingly shaped end 25 of the shaft 26. At the opposite end of the shaft 26 an abutment 27 is provided to be engaged by theprojection 28 upon the hub 29 of the handle 30 whereby movement of the handle in the direction of the arrow 31 (see Fig. 1) will cause the latchbolt to beretracted from the case part of the door jamb to permit the door to be opened. The handle 30, however, is free to be moved in the opposite direction, by which movement the projection 28 will move from the abutment 27 without movement of the shaft 26. In some cases it is desirable to disengage the abutment 27 and projection 28 by an axial movement of the handle and shaft in which case the modification shown in Fig. 16 is used. In this construction the bore of the hub of the handle is recessed to provide a more elongated recess 43 and an enlarged portion 81 of the bore to receive a spring 82 acting between the shoulder 83 and flange 84 of the lock but which spring will permit the handle to be moved outwardly along the axis of the shaft 26 to disengage the abutment 27 and projection 28 shown in Fig. 2 and thus permit the handle to be rotated to the locked position by rotation in the same direction as for operating the latch-bolt.
The hub 29 of the handle is hollow and within this hollov7 portion there is mounted a lock having a casing 31 which is secured in position through the bore 32 in the shaft 26 by means of a pin 33 extending therethrough and held against rotation bya square end and the set screw 34. From the casing 31 of this lock there projects a plunger or pawl 35 which is forced outwardl by means of a spring 36 and which may ble drawn into the casing by the eccentrically mounted pin 37 on the end of the cylindrical portion 38 which is locked in position in the casing 31, by
-means of plungers 39 engaged in recesses 1n the casing and which is retracted by insertion of the key into the slot 41 to permit the key to turn the cylinder 38 and withdraw the plunger 35. The hollow hub 29 of the handle is generally cylindrical as illustrated at 42 in Figures 8 and 9 and is provided with a recess 43 extending outwardly from this cylindrical bore so that movement of the handle from the latch-bolt operating position illustrated in full lines in Figures l1, 2 and 7 to the dotted position illustrated in Figure 1 and shown in Figure 8 either by reverse rotation or by axial movement and continued rotation will permit the plunger 35 to be forced by means of the spring 36 into the recess 43 which is provided with abutment shoulders 44 to prevent movement of the handle to the latch-bolt operating position. Thus it Will be necessary for further operation of the latch-bolt to insert a key into the lock 31 and turn the same to withdraw the plunger 35 from the recess 43 thus permitting the handle to be moved to its full line position illustrated in Fig. 1 for operation of the latch-bolt. l
In order that the fingers will not be caught in the operating portion of the mechanism I have provided a plate 45 to cover the relaprovides a finish for the mechanism. Thisk plate may be secured to the door by suitable screws 46 or any other desired means. Also, it will be understood that the latch-bolt may be retracted by means of the lever 47 at the opposite end thereof similar to that of the handle provided on the door of the automobile' for convenient operation from the inside thereof.
In some instances it is desirable to provide a lock more directly associated with the latchbolt which I have illustrated in Figures 9-15. In this modified construction the latch-bolt 50 is retracted by member 51 having an accurate slot 52 to receive the pin 53 mounted upon the latch bolt 50 and which is turned by shaft 54 secured to the plate 51 and hub of the handle 55 rigidly secured to the-shaft.
The latch-bolt is withdrawn when plate 51 is in the position illustrated in Fig. 10 and the handle illustrated in dotted lines at 56. Thus by movement of the handle 56 as illustrated in Fig. 10 as indicated by the arrow 57 the rlatch-bolt will be withdrawn from its catch in the door jamb to permit opening of the door, and in order that the door may be locked it is merely necessary for me to move the handle 56 upwardly in the direction opposite to that illustrated by the arrow 57, to the position illustrated in Fig. 9 which will cause a corresponding movement of the plate 51 to the position illustrated in Fig. 9 in which position the pawl 58 will drop into engagement with abutment or shoulder 59 and prevent movement of the plate 51 and handle secured thereto and consequently will prevent movement of the latch-bolt 50.
Likewise upon movement .of the handle 56 to raised position illustrated in Figure 9 a recess 60 in the hub 55 of the handle 56 will be brought into the position shown in Figure 12 to permit the spring 63 to force the plunger 61 of the lock 62 to enter this recess and prevent the handle from movement it being understood that the lock 62 is relatively stationary and not moved upon movement of the handle to the raised position before mentioned. In order that the parts may be unlocked, a key is inserted in the slot 64 of the lock 62 which withdraws the plunger 61 from the recess 60 in the hub of the handle and permits rotation of the lock 62 and its shaft 65 extending therefrom to raise the pawl 58 by means of the links 66 and 67, the bell crank lever 68 and link 69 having a slot 7() therein to receive the pin 71 extending from the pawl 58 and at a point spaced from the pivot 71 of this pawl, whereby it will be noticed that the key releases the handle and then upon being turned lifts the pawl freeing the plate 51 so that the handle may be swung down to position illustrated in Fig. 10 and the pin 53 will come in to engagement with the end of the slot 52 to operate the latch-bolt 50.
A modified showing of this pawl and plate arrangement is illustrated in Fig. 15 in which case the pawl 72 is pivoted at 73 to drop into engagement with the abutment 7 4 of the plate 75 and which may be lifted from such position by links 76, 77 mounted directly upon the end of the shaft 65 whereby the plateis released from locked position. It will of course be understood that the latch-bolt 50 may be withdrawn by means of auxiliary lever 78 when desired from the inside.
I have illustrated as a preferred construction a lock having a spring pressed plunger so that upon movement of the handle to the predetermined position the plunger will snap into the recess in the handle. It is of course understood that a lock movable to locked position by a key instead of a spring may be used in a similar capacity by manipulating the plunger by means of the key of the construction shown in Figs. 12 to 14 inclusive.
rllhe foregoing description is directed solely towards the construction illustrated, but I desire it to be understood that I reserve the privilege of resorting to all the mechanical changes to which the device is susceptible, the
invention being defined and limited only by the terms of the appended claims.
