- the latch mechanism consists of a case I l, which, as will be more particularly described hereinafter, consists of two identical parts.
- a latch bolt comprising a bolt head I2 and a stem I3.
- a bolt head I2 Upon the stem is provided an abutment I4, and rearwardly of this abutment the stern is reduced in size, as shown at I5, and the extreme end portion is beveled at each side as at I5.
- a retracting yoke shown more especially in Fig. 1.
- This yoke comprises a pair of spaced legs I1 joined at their front ends by a crosshead I9 having therein a slot 23 to receive the portion I3 of the bolt. It will be understood that this crosshead I9 lies forwardly of the abutment I4 and the slot is smaller than the abutment, so that, when the yoke is drawn rearwardly in the case, the bolt will be retracted by engagement of the edges of the slot 29 with the abutment I4.
- the legs l1 of the yoke are provided adjacent their rear ends with outwardly turned lugs 2
- a plate 24 Secured to the case, and extending from one side to the other thereof between the legs I1 of the yoke, is a plate 24 which serves as an abutment for the bolt springs, of which two are provided.v As shown in Figs. 3, 4 and 5, a relatively light spring 25 surrounds the rear portion I5 of the bolt stem, the rear end of this spring acting against the abutment plate 24, and the forward end of the spring acting against the abutment I4 on the bolt stem so as to urge the stern forwardly to projected position.
- a stronger spring 26 Surrounding this spring is a stronger spring 26, which also acts at its rear end against the plate 24, but its front end acts against the crosshead I9 of the retracting yoke.
- This spring is a compression spring like the spring 25, and serves to vurge the retractor to a forward position.
- the diameter of the spring 25 is suiiiciently large, so that the spring does not bear against theabutment I4, and, therefore, does not act on the bolt itself.
- both springs are compressed, for in this case it is desirable to have a strong spring to return the parts to their normal position.
- a pair of rollback hubs 28 and 29 are rotatably mounted in the case, these hubs having bearings in the wall of the case at 30 and 3l.
- Square spindles 32 and 33 are fitted into similarly shaped openings of the hubs 23 and 29 in order to rotate the latter, and knobs or other operating members 34 and 35 are mounted upon these spindles.
- either spindle may be rotated independently of the other, and, likewise, the rollback hubs 28 and 29 are also independently rotatable by the spindles.
- the rollback hubs 28 and 29 are provided with rollbacks 36 and 31, respectively, these rollbacks being disposed in the recesses 22 of the retracting yoke, so that they bear against the lugs 2l and serve to move the retracting yoke rearwardly when the knob spindles are rotated.
- Each of these rollbacks is provided with a forwardly extending lug 38, the purpose of which will now be explained.
- a dogging member 40 is slidably mounted in opposite walls of the latch case, both ends of this dogging member being threaded, as shown at 4I, to receive a pushbutton or other actuating member 42 designed to project from the inner rose 43, so that it may be operated at the inside of the door to dog the rollback.
- the dogging member as shown in Fig. 3, is in its neutral position, and may be moved in either direction from this position. However, as shown in Fig. 3, it is intended only to be moved toward the left, and is moved in the other direction when the latch is mounted on a door of the other hand, and, in such case, the actuating member 42 is threaded into the other end of the member 40.
- the bolt dogging member 40 is provided with a rearwardly projecting yoke 44 adapted, when the dogging member is in its neutral position, as shown in Fig. 3, to stand between the lugs 38 on the rollbacks 3S and 31 in engagement with neither thereof. However, when the dogging member is moved in one direction or the other, such as toward the left, as shown in Fig. 5, this yoke straddles the lug 38 of the rollback 36 and prevents operation of the outside rollback and therefore of the outside knob, thus dogging the latch bolt against operation from the outside of the room.
- a bowed spring 45 acts against the dogging slide 40 to hold it yieldingly in the position to which it is moved
- An opening 46 is provided in the dogging member 49, this opening being provided with oppositely beveled areas 41 at its forward end with which the beveled surfaces I6 on the reduced portion l5 of the latch bolt stem cooperate to move the dogging member to its neutral position whenever the bolt is retracted.
- the stem I5 passes freely into the opening 46 without engaging the sides of the opening.
- the case II is preferably made of sheet material, and consists of two identical halves, one of which is shown at 50 in Figs. 8, 9 and l0. Each of these halves is provided with slots 5I for the reception of the rollbacks 36 and 31 and also of the lugs 2i, and each of the parts is provided with a face plate part '52 projecting in one direction from the case. At its rear end each of the casing parts is provided with a matching T-shaped tongue 53 and groove. It will be apparent from Fig. l0 that, when the opposite half of the case is matched with the half shown, there will be a second face plate part 52 projecting in the opposite direction, thus forming the face plate for the case.

DOOR LATCH Filed Jan. 22, 1948 2 SHEETS- SHEET 2 Patented Apr. 22, 1952 DOOR LATCH Nathan Kulbersh, West Haven, `Conn.,assigner to Sargent. da Company, New Haven, Colm., a vcorporation of Connecticut Application January 22, 1948Seriai No, 3,669
. 4Claims. t 1` .This invention` relates.` to latches, and more particularlyto a latch having a latch bolt which may be dogged against retraction so asy to prevent unauthorized entry to the door upon which the latch is mounted.
It will be appreciated that docrsmay swing in either direction from the hinge and also may be hinged at either edge, and it is necessary .when a door latch is provided so to construct the latch that it may be mounted upon either rightor left-hand doors. In many instances, it is necessary to remove the cover or in some manner open the casing of the latch and reverse the bolt in order`that the latch bolt face in the proper direction relatively to the direction in which the door swings to closed position. This is particularly true with latches, such, for instance, as those adapted for use upon bathroom doors, where it is desirable that provision be made for clogging the latch in protracted position and where the clogging means should always be at the inside of the door.
It is contemplated by the present invention to provide a latch of this character, so that it may be mounted upon a door of either hand without the necessity of opening the case or serve to Aactuate the latch bolt.
It is, of course, desirable that the outside rollback be dogged, and, with the present arrangement, either of the two rollbacks may be associated with the outside knob as either one may be dogged by the clogging slide. To change the latch from a door of one hand to a door of another hand,l it is .only necessary to disengage the pushbutton or any operating member for the doggingslide and engage it with the other end of this slide at the other side of the case. This is very simply done, and does not require that the case be opened or that any of the interior mechanism oi the latch be changed in any Way.
One object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved latch mechanism for doors.
A further ohject of the invention is to provide a new and improved latch mechanism having a case and operating parts` symmetrilly arranged so that the case may be mounted upon either rightor left-hand door without lchanging the positionvoi the latch bolt relatively.l to the case.
Another object of the invention is to provide a latch bolt of the character described above, wherein a bolt-operating mechanism is provided at each side of the case, and means are provided for dogging either one of said bolt-operating mechanisms, so that the bolt may alwaysxbe dogged fromA operation from the outside regardless of the position in which the latch is mounted.
A still further object of the invention isl to provide a door latch of the character described above, and to provide a pair of rollbackslfor operating the latch bolt and a clogging slide for these rollbacks, the slide having a neutral position in which it is inoperative, and being movable in either direction so as to dog either of the rollbacks against operation as desired.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a casing for a door latch mechanism, which casing may be made in two identical halves, thus rendering the` manufacture of the case more economical than is possible under the present practice.
To these and other ends the invention consists in the novel features and combinations o f parts to be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings:

latch case; n
Fig. 9 is a side elevational View of the latch case part shown in Fig. 8; and
Fig. l0 is a front elevational View of the latch case part shown in Figs. 8 and 9.
To illustrate a preferred embodiment` of my invention, Ihave shown in the drawings Aa, door Fig. 8 is a top plan view of a portion ofthe I having a latch mechanism mounted therein. The latch mechanism consists of a case I l, which, as will be more particularly described hereinafter, consists of two identical parts.
Slidably mounted within the case is a latch bolt comprising a bolt head I2 and a stem I3. Upon the stem is provided an abutment I4, and rearwardly of this abutment the stern is reduced in size, as shown at I5, and the extreme end portion is beveled at each side as at I5.
Also slidably mounted within the case is a retracting yoke shown more especially in Fig. 1. This yoke comprises a pair of spaced legs I1 joined at their front ends by a crosshead I9 having therein a slot 23 to receive the portion I3 of the bolt. It will be understood that this crosshead I9 lies forwardly of the abutment I4 and the slot is smaller than the abutment, so that, when the yoke is drawn rearwardly in the case, the bolt will be retracted by engagement of the edges of the slot 29 with the abutment I4. The legs l1 of the yoke are provided adjacent their rear ends with outwardly turned lugs 2| adapted to be engaged by knob-operated rollbacks, as will be hereinafter explained. Forwardly of the lugs 2|, the legs of the retractor are provided with recesses 22.
Secured to the case, and extending from one side to the other thereof between the legs I1 of the yoke, is a plate 24 which serves as an abutment for the bolt springs, of which two are provided.v As shown in Figs. 3, 4 and 5, a relatively light spring 25 surrounds the rear portion I5 of the bolt stem, the rear end of this spring acting against the abutment plate 24, and the forward end of the spring acting against the abutment I4 on the bolt stem so as to urge the stern forwardly to projected position.
Surrounding this spring is a stronger spring 26, which also acts at its rear end against the plate 24, but its front end acts against the crosshead I9 of the retracting yoke. This spring is a compression spring like the spring 25, and serves to vurge the retractor to a forward position. The diameter of the spring 25 is suiiiciently large, so that the spring does not bear against theabutment I4, and, therefore, does not act on the bolt itself. It will be apparent that with this arrangement, when the bolt I2 is retracted by engagement with the strike plate upon the door, the stem I3 of the bolt slides freely through the slot 29 in the retracting yoke, so that the retractor is not moved rearwardly with the bolt. Therefore, only the light spring 25 is compressed at this time, thus making easier the closing of the door. When, however, the retractor is moved to retract the bolt, both springs are compressed, for in this case it is desirable to have a strong spring to return the parts to their normal position.
As shown more especially in Figs. 3 and 5, a pair of rollback hubs 28 and 29 are rotatably mounted in the case, these hubs having bearings in the wall of the case at 30 and 3l. Square spindles 32 and 33 are fitted into similarly shaped openings of the hubs 23 and 29 in order to rotate the latter, and knobs or other operating members 34 and 35 are mounted upon these spindles. It will be understood that, as is usual in door latches of this kind, either spindle may be rotated independently of the other, and, likewise, the rollback hubs 28 and 29 are also independently rotatable by the spindles.
The rollback hubs 28 and 29 are provided with rollbacks 36 and 31, respectively, these rollbacks being disposed in the recesses 22 of the retracting yoke, so that they bear against the lugs 2l and serve to move the retracting yoke rearwardly when the knob spindles are rotated. Each of these rollbacks is provided with a forwardly extending lug 38, the purpose of which will now be explained.
A dogging member 40 is slidably mounted in opposite walls of the latch case, both ends of this dogging member being threaded, as shown at 4I, to receive a pushbutton or other actuating member 42 designed to project from the inner rose 43, so that it may be operated at the inside of the door to dog the rollback. It will be understood that the dogging member, as shown in Fig. 3, is in its neutral position, and may be moved in either direction from this position. However, as shown in Fig. 3, it is intended only to be moved toward the left, and is moved in the other direction when the latch is mounted on a door of the other hand, and, in such case, the actuating member 42 is threaded into the other end of the member 40.
The bolt dogging member 40 is provided with a rearwardly projecting yoke 44 adapted, when the dogging member is in its neutral position, as shown in Fig. 3, to stand between the lugs 38 on the rollbacks 3S and 31 in engagement with neither thereof. However, when the dogging member is moved in one direction or the other, such as toward the left, as shown in Fig. 5, this yoke straddles the lug 38 of the rollback 36 and prevents operation of the outside rollback and therefore of the outside knob, thus dogging the latch bolt against operation from the outside of the room. A bowed spring 45 acts against the dogging slide 40 to hold it yieldingly in the position to which it is moved An opening 46 is provided in the dogging member 49, this opening being provided with oppositely beveled areas 41 at its forward end with which the beveled surfaces I6 on the reduced portion l5 of the latch bolt stem cooperate to move the dogging member to its neutral position whenever the bolt is retracted. As will be apparent from Fig. 3, when the dogging member 4i) is in its neutral position, the stem I5 passes freely into the opening 46 without engaging the sides of the opening. When, however, the dogging member has been moved to dogging position, as shown in Fig. 5, and the bolt is retracted either by one of the knobs or by contact with the strike plate, the beveled rear end I6 of the stem portion I5 engages one of the beveled surfaces 41 of the opening 45 and cams the dogging member to its normal or neutral position. Thus, the door may never be closed with the dogging member in its operative position.
The case II is preferably made of sheet material, and consists of two identical halves, one of which is shown at 50 in Figs. 8, 9 and l0. Each of these halves is provided with slots 5I for the reception of the rollbacks 36 and 31 and also of the lugs 2i, and each of the parts is provided with a face plate part '52 projecting in one direction from the case. At its rear end each of the casing parts is provided with a matching T-shaped tongue 53 and groove. It will be apparent from Fig. l0 that, when the opposite half of the case is matched with the half shown, there will be a second face plate part 52 projecting in the opposite direction, thus forming the face plate for the case. The parts of the case may then be secured together at their front ends by means of the plate 53a, which serves as the outer plate when the latch is in place, as shown in Fig. 2, this plate being secured to the face plate part 52 by short sleeves 53h which pass through openings 55 in the portions 52, and are upset at the rear of the latter. Screws 5ta may be passed through these sleeves to secure the casing to the door. As the forward end of each casing part 59 adjacent the part 52 is enlarged, as shown at 56, the opposite side of the casing part is recessed, as shown at 5l, so as to receive the part 56 of the other half of the case. Thus, the two casing parts may be made in identical halves, eilecting a con- Sider-able economy in the manufacture of the latch.
Each casing part is provided with an opening 69, and the abutment 2li is provided with tongues El which pass through these openings to hold the abutment in place. At one side of the case the tongues may be clenched over, as shown at 52.
While I have shown and described a preferred embodiment of my invention, it will be understood that it is not to be limited to all of the details shown, but is capable of modification and variation within the spirit of the invention and within the scope of the claims.
What I claim is:
1. A door latch comprising a case, a bolt reciprocably mounted therein, means for operating said bolt including a pair of rollbacks rotatably mounted in the case, means to dog either or" said rollbacks against rotation, said means comprising a member slidably mounted in the case and having a part normally standing between said rollbacks, means for moving said member in either direction from its normal position to dog either of said rollbaclis as desired, and means to move said member to its normal position from either of its dogging positions when the bolt is retracted.
