Definitions

  • Locksof the type commonly referred to as combination locks are, of course, verywell known. Also it is generally known that such locks depend for -their operation upon the alignment of .a plurality of elements in a preselected manner which permits the .operation of a bolt. 'These elements-are usuallyinthe form o'f discs, common- 'ly called tumblers., each of which is provided with a notch .or recess, calleda gate, the alignment lof thegate determining when the bolt .can be moved. 'It ⁇ is common for these ⁇ locks .to b e provided with three discs, .although more coul'd be used.
  • .An element called a ffence extends transversely across the edges of all .of .the ftumblers and :is adapted to drop into the gates when all of the gates in the tumblers are Vin alignment and when the driver wheel is manipulated to permit the fence to drop.
  • thefence is -held in such a position .that kit is slightly ⁇ spaced from the outer peripheries of all of .the tumblers.
  • thegatefof thenext highest tumbler ⁇ can be aligned with the -fence and, therefore, with the gate of the iirst tumbler and so on until the correct combinationis found and the security of thelock is broken.
  • the driver Wheel Furthermore, the 'special -gate can be opened 'only when this Adriver wheel gate is substantiallyaligned-with the-fence. This'avoids the defect of lthe'prior ⁇ devices that the driver 'wheel cannot 'be 1 turned -suciently to manipulate the tumblers when the'ga'te is open.
  • the Iprimary object ,or thepresentinvention is to providera combinationflockin which a'manipulation of the .dial will-not jgive any-indicationftf the position of thegates'in'anyof 'the'tumblers .
  • Another Objectis ⁇ to provide a combinationlock with ⁇ a driver wheel having'means for ⁇ selectively f closing thelgateinthe 'driverwheel'and for per# mitting rotation or the driver wheel ⁇ only when the gate is closed sothatthefence isheId-away from theperipheries ofthe tumblers.
  • Another yobject jis to provide -a combination lock in which .the driver Wheelcannotbe rotated to manipulate'thetumblers When'the driver .Wheel gate is open.
  • Another o bj ect vis lto l provide a combinationjlocl in which 'the ⁇ driver wheel ,cannot be -rotated to' manipulate the .tumblers when 'the driver 'Wheel gate 'is open and having interlocking means ⁇ be tween ⁇ the tumblers ,and thejfenee to prevent'the walking of the ,tumblers when the driver wheel gate is open.

  • the illustrative drawings show a conventional combination lock modied in such a manner as to permit the application of an embodiment of on line 2--2 the'present invention.
  • the conventional lock is
  • a casing I connected by a press t to a hollow sleeve 2 which projects through a door 3.
  • a plurality of tumblers 6, 1 and 8 are rotatably mountedon a cylindrical boss integral with the casing, the boss being substantially co-extensive with the sleeve 2.
  • a suitable escutcheon plate 9 Secured to the outer end of the sleeve 2 is a suitable escutcheon plate 9.
  • the casing is secured to the door 3 by the sleeve 2 and suitable screws.
  • a shaft II Inside the sleeve 2 is a shaft II, the inner end of which has rotatably iixed thereto a driver wheel I2, the opposite end of the shaft Il having a dial I3 xed thereto.
  • the dial and its hub constitute the means through which the tumblers 6, 1 and 8 of the combination lock are manipulated.
  • Each of the tumblers 6, 1 and 8 are of conventional construction and are divided in two parts, an inner part serving as a hub and an outer part having a suitable notch or gate 6a, 1a., and 8a, respectively, it being understood that all of the gates of the tumblers must be in proper alignment in order to operate the bolt of the lock.
  • Conventional means are provided for changing the relative position between the hub portion and the outer portion of the tumblers for the purpose of changing the lock combination.
  • Suitable xed washers having small detents which engage a recess 2a in the sleeve 2 are placed between the hubs of adjacent tumblers so that from the standpoint of mechanical friction each of the tumblers is completely isolated from the other.
  • One of such washers is indicated at I6.
  • flyer I1 Between one side of the washer and the next adjacent tumbler is a flyer I1 having an outwardly projecting detent I1a.
  • the annular portion of the flyer I1 serves as a spacer while the outwardly projecting detent I1a serves as an element through which one of the tumblers is driven by a laterally projecting detent on the next adjacent tumbler.
  • the driver wheel I2 is screw-threadedly secured to the shaft I I and a suitable key 2I is provided to lock the driver wheel in non-rotatable position on the shaft I I.
  • the driver wheel is provided with a lateral projection 22 which is adapted to engage the outwardly extending detent on the yer between it and the tumbler 8. It will be readily understood that when the dial I3 is rotated to rotate the driver wheel I2 that the projection 22 will drive the tumbler 8 and through the intermediate fiyer between the tumbler 8 and tumbler 1 the latter will be driven and so on, including the tumbler 6.
  • the gates Ba, 1a and 8a of the respective tumblers may be brought to register with each other in the well known manner when the proper combination is obtained by turning the knob I3 rst to the right, lining up the gate in one tumbler, then to the left lining up the gate in the second tumbler, and then to the right again lining up the third tumbler, and so on, ir" a lock with more than three tumblers is used.
  • the lock is provided with a bolt 23 which is adapted to slide in a suitable guide formed in the casing I, the bolt 23 being operated by a fencelever 24 pivotally attached thereto by a screw 26.
  • a suitable spring 30 is'provided for the purpose of urging the fence-lever 24 toward the tumblers.
  • the fence-lever 24 is provided with a laterally projecting arm, commonly referred to as a fence 21, which is adapted to engage the gates when the tumblers are in proper relative positions.
  • the driver Wheel I2 is also provided with a special gate I2a, the shape of which is complemental to the shape of a depending boss 28 on the fencelever 24. The lower point of the boss 28 normally rides on the outer periphery of the driver wheel I2.
  • the lock is provided With a suitable device to prevent tampering so that in the event that an attempt is made to drive the shaft I I inwardly toward the casing, the bolt 23 would be locked in position.
  • a suitable element 3l having an end portion 3Ia which engages the outer face of the upper tumbler 8 is provided.
  • is pivoted on screw 33 and is provided with a curved end 3Ib which partially encircles a locking pin 34 when the parts of the lock are in normal position.
  • the locking pin 34 is adapted to slide in a suitable guiding recess in the casing I and is provided with a C- shaped washer which engages a groove in the pin 34.
  • One side of the washer engages the curved end portion 3Ib of the element 3l and a suitable spring 31 is provided for normally urging the pin 34 in upward position where it could engage a notch in the underside of bolt 23.
  • the construction described so far is conventional.
  • the present inventional resides in the modification of the driver wheel I2 and certain other parts and the provision of a slide 43 Vwhich can be selectively controlled for closing the gate I2a in the driver wheel I2 so that a person not familiarwth the combination cannot manipuisqto'fthefcombination l ofthe lock.
