THEODOREW. COOKE, OF CHICAGO, ILLrNOIs.
CAR-DOOR FASTENING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 263,655, dated August 29, 1882,
Application filed May 9, 1882. (No model.)
To all lwhom it may concern Be it known that I, THEODORE W. COOKE, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Car-Door Fastenings, of which the following is a specification.
My iu vention relates toimprovementsin cardoor fastenin gs.
The object of my invention is to provide a sim ple and inexpensive fastening for cardoors and my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of parts, as hereinafter more fully described with reference to the accom# panying drawings, in which- Figure l is a front elevation View of a carV door to which my improved fastening device is applied. Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view of the same. Figs. 3 and 4 are sectional views, showing modifications in the construction thereof.
Similar letters of reference refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
In the accompanying drawings,A represen ts an ordinary sliding door of a frei ght-car, sliding on the customary rods or ways, a a.
B is the side wall of the car, and C the inside lining or ceiling, with the space 0 between, formed by the upright pieces b b b. l
Within the space O,between the lining 0 and outer wall, B, is placed the fastening device D, which consists in a spring rod or bar, D, secured at one end to one ofthe uprights b, and the other end bentat right angles, and with the right-angled part D projecting through the Wall B of the car, just behind the edge of the door A when said door is closed. Secured 'in the edge of the door by meansof awood-screw,
or in any other suitable manner, is an eye, E, in which the projecting part D of rod D enters when the door is closed. A short distance the surface of side B when pushed in to its farthest extent. The end of the part Dl is provided with an opening, c, in" which the customary seal or lock may be placed.
The device is intended to be placed on the side of the car-door in theA direction in which it slides, and is operated as follows The door being closed, the partD',by reason of the spring-rod D, enters the eye E, and the door is fastened. To open the door, press on the knob 7o, which withdraws the part D from the eye E. The door A may now be slid open, and as it passes over the end of the part D holds it back, with the knob 7c in the recess d and Hush with the side B. Upon pushing the door shut the part D immediately springs out and fastens the door.
The device admits of many modifications, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. instead of the rod D, a straight bolt, D', may be used, which slides back and forthin bearings in the side wall, B, and lining O, a coil-spring, s, being used to press it outward; or, instead of the coil-sprin g s, a leafspring, s', may be substituted, as shown in Fig. 4.
If it is desired, a lock may be used instead of the eye E, and may be placed on the outside surface of the door A `or at the endiof the door, the part D being made in such shape as to engage therewith and form a secure fastening.
If desired, a strip of metal, p, may be placed across the door on the inside where the rod D rubs, to prevent wear on the inner surface of the door by the end ofthe bolt D' and to prevent the bolt D from catching in the worn places in shutting and opening the door.
It is evident that this device may be applied to any kind of sliding car-door, either end or side. It is very simple, and, the working parts being completely inclosed, is not liable to get out of order.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
l. A spring-rod, D', arranged on the inside of the outer wall of a car, and provided with a ri ght-angled portion or bolt, D,and` a pushrod, e, both adapted to project through openings in said Wall, in combination with a oar- In testimony whereof Iax my signaturein door` provided with an eye, E, substantially presence of two Witnesses. as described.
2. The rod D, having aJ right-angled portion THEODORE COOKE. 5 or bolt, D', provided With an opening, c, for
the reception of a locking device, in combina- Witnesses: tion with a car-door having an eye, E, sub- P. A. STALEY,
