Application January'23, 1948, Serial No. 3,985
7 Claimsv (Cl. 292'-181 My invention relates to locks generally but more particularly to fastenersadapted in structure and-operation for application to refrigerator 7' to withstand severe useon the heaviest of doors.
It is a further object of my invention-toprovide' a fastener that is simple to-'manufacture easyto install andawhichr isnt ungainly in appearance when attached=tothedoors of'refrigerator rooms or trucks, or someothepzdoor such 'as ta -vault where an operatorlis" likely to--be locked-"inside either during.. or after working vhours.
It is another .object of myqinvention to provide a'door fastener which maybe locked frornthe-9 outside with a padlock or the like and' yet permit an operator accidentally. imprisoned behind. such door to releasehimselfaand relockthedoorv from the outside .without removing the padlock.
Further objects and .advantageswillbe found in the following detailed description-whenviewed together with the .acc'ompanyingfldrawings in which:
Fig. 1 represents afront elevation sof -a -d0or-- fastener embodyingmy. invention shown as applied to a door.
Fig. 2 is a topplan. view of the fastener shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is across-sectional view-through a-portion of a doorand cdoorijamb-showingthe installation of the fastener. i V
Fig. 4 is.a..similarmviewof -Fig.:3,-thefastener.- being disengaged .iromHthe inside to 'permit the door to open as shown, and
Fig. 5 is a vertical "sectional viewtaken substantially on line .5-5 of Fig.2..
As shownhinlFigul numeral lll designates adoor and numeralll l the doorijamb. Numeral I2 designatesa keeper held totthedoor by screws IS. The keeper will ,is provided with .a beveled leading edge MI,
Fastened to the outside face of the door jamb- II is the fastener housing designated general1yby the letterI-I. The :housing .H consists'in: a flat plate l5 heldagainst the door-lamb II by mounting screws 16) Either. removably, or integrally attached to the flat plate :I 5 is a plunger barrel I1 bored ito tsliiiably receive tapistonnlh fastener that is of rugged construction and able:
The rear .endsof l-the lph'mger.barrel l1 islclosed by aplug l 9. A portionlof the plunger zilfin'thisinstance, is made square rin'i'cross section andjex-- tends through 'a'square'hole provided in 'both the i plug 59 and the pisto :IB'JM The plunger Ellis". further 'providedwithra head TZI "on' the rear end and a beveledlace 'llz matehing the keeper'face i l on its opposite ends I have *arranged 'a com=- pressionspring 23 to "encircle-the *rear portion of the plungerzn havingeone of'its 'ends' abutting against the t plug l 9 rand fthe other "against the head 2! of the plungerr'lllcv.
On the inside of the plunger barrel-l1 and encircling: the plunger-2ll--betweenthe' face of the p1ug l9 and the-rea-r-end of the piston I8 is I a--retaining ring -24: Thus," when an operator: presses against the-headv2l ofthe plunger to compress the spring '23, the retaining ring- 24* presses" against the piston [8 which is normally housed withinthe-forward orzopenh-end of ithe barrel I! to slideit-iorwardin theplunger bar rel- H.-
The first mounting-:mlate I 5 is provided with a :recess 25 in which :an L-shapeddatch -26-.is pivotally mounted; Onei-legof-=thelatch-2ii is arranged to enter "a -slot 21" in the plunger barrel I! and rest in" anotch-28 provided on the cir-- cumfe'rentiatsurface-ofthe "pist0n:i8.- The oppo-- site 1eg=of-the latch- 26 rests on a small compres-- sion spring zfimountedcalsoin the recess 25 of the-fiat plate I 5:"
Extending horizontally" through the door jambll =isx-theinside release pin ill-slidably mounted. in the fiat plate-1 5 onone -endcand ina bearing cap 3lon the other -end; The pin 3lliis further provided with a retainingiring' 32 vwhich prevents. the'pin from. being-removedirom its position in-ithe door V-j amb and'becoming lost ormisplaced.
The forward endof the'plunger 2D is provided with a hole 33 through-which a-retaining pin. 34 may be-placed to keep the doorclosed. This re-v taming-pin 34 is. preferably provided-with a chain. 35 01 the likeattachedtuits-upperend and se-, curely fastenedwto the door jamb- II. There. may even be airacki 3B fastened to the lamb-ll l into which the retainingpin. 34 may be placedwhenthe mechanism is vnot .inhuse; It must. be remembered that the deviceisdesigned for use preferably in combination .with. a conventional latch which is employed to keepthe doorvclosed during periods of normal usage. i
From the above .description. it can be seen that with the pin 3 placed .in ithelhole 33 of the plunger 2t,v the door cannot be unlocked except from theinside or'byiremoving the pin. In order. to lock theidoor from lthetoutside} Iisimply. use
an ordinary padlock 3'! through the pin 34. Let us suppose, however, that a workman has been accidentally locked behind a door after the padlock has been applied. The accidentally imprisoned workman would simply press on the release pin 3! to effect the release of the latch 26. The releasing of the latch 26 from engagement with the groove 28 in the piston l8 would allow the compressed spring 23 to draw both the piston l8 and the pin and its attached padlock 3'! backward to allow the beveled edge 22 of the plunger 2i! to clear the keeper I2 on the door as illustrated in Fig. 4. Note that the plunger barrel ll is provided with elongated slots 38 to slidably receive the pin 34. After the imprisoned workman has released himself, he presses on the head 2| of the plunger 25 from the outside of the door and the mechanism again locks itself without ever having to remove the padlock 31. Now
it can be seen that anyone desiring to again enter the locked door must unlock the padlock 3'1; but at the same time, any one looked behind such door is able to release himself according to the procedure just described.
While I have described my invention in detail as applied to vault doors or the like, it is to be understood that other applications may be made and various changes in the construction and arrangement of parts resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope in my invention as defined by the following claims.
