SEAL-LOCK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 272,360, dated February 13, 1883.
Application filed September 7. 1882. (ModeL) To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ANDREW WARREN, of
Figure 1 is a side elevation. Fig. 2 is a detached perspective view, showing the parts disconnected. Fig. 3 is an edge view of the fastening, showing it secured in place, the doorjamb being shown in section on line 3 3, Fig.1. Fig, 4 is a transverse section taken on line 4 4,
' Fig 1. Fig. 5' is a detached perspective view,
part broken away, ofthe keeper-bracket, which is secured between the latch or shackle and the door to keep the former in a'horizontal position when the latter is open.
My invention relates to a fastening to which a padlock and seal can be applied; and my invention consists in points of novelty hereinafter fully described and claimed.
A represents part of a car-door, and B part of the door-jamb or side of the car.'
,0 is the latch or shackle, secured to the door by a bolt, D, the catches G projecting downward, as shown. There are preferably two catches 0, so that the door can be left slightly open or closed uptight.
E is'a drop-block having capacity for vertical movement in a frame secured to the doorjamb. The frame consists of tWoparts-an inner part, F, and an outer part, Fthe two being secured together and to the car by bolts or rivets G, as shown in Figs. 1 and 37 The inner piece preferably has'outward-extending end projections, F within which the outer piece fits, and it has a reduced central portion, F ,-which receives the block E, and as this reduced portion is longer than the block the lat ter has capacity for vertical movement.
F is a slot in the back of the/piece F, which receives a rib or flange, E, on the back of the block E, and. the outerpiece, F, has a slot, F which receives a'flange or rib, E on the face of the block E. On the outside or face of the piece F are flanges F F one on each side of the slot F and these are preferably connected at top and any desirable or suitable distance down the front, as shown, for the purpose of excluding moisture, thereby avoiding any danger of the drop-block being frozen fast in cold weather. The rib E on the face of the drop-block is of sufficient-length to ex tend out between .these flanges F F and the two have corresponding holes, E and E the former to receive a padlock and the latter to receive a seal. It will now be seen that, as the door is closed, the pointed end of the latch or shackle will enter between the plates F-F beneath the drop-block, for, as the slots in the plates do not extend as low as the opening between them, there is room for the point or end of the latch to enter beneath the block, raising it, and when the first catch on the latch'bas reached the other side of the frame the latch will fall, the catch engaging the lower end of the frame, and as soon as the latch falls the block E will drop onto the latch, bringing the padlock and seal holes in line with the corresponding holes in the flanges of the piece F.
Then, it it is desired to close the door tight,
it is simply pushed forward, the inclined face of the second catch of the latch raising the latch and drop-block and dropping behind the frame in the same mannerthat the first one did. It
will thus be seen that no attention whatever has to be given to the drop-block when the dooris closed, and as soon as the catch of vthe latch has engaged behind the frame the dropblook is in position to receive the padlock and seal, thereby holding the latch down, prevent ing its being raised without removing the seal and lock. block is not removable, except by removing the frame, and therefore there is no danger of its being lost.
When one person hasto open the door by himselfit is difflcult for him to hold the latch up and pull the door back at the same time.
Therefore Ipivot a dog, H, to the lower part It will also be seen that the dropi against which the latch rests, and the outer vertical flanges F II -one on each side of the face of the bracket, above the keeper, has sharp corrugations I. The object of these features is to provide against the keeper becoming stopped up with snow and icein cold weather, which would hold the latch up out of its proper position. Vhen the latch falls these sharp edges will cut and break the ice and snow, causingit to fall through the bottomlesskeeper.
I claim as my invention 1. In a cardoor fastening, the latch or shackle O, with hooks or catches on its lower side, in combination with the frame F F and the drop-block E, located within the frame, and having padlock and seal holes corresponding with those in the frame, substantially as set forth.
2. The two-part frame F F, inclosing the non'removable block E, which has vertical movement therein, the outer piece, F, having slot F with padlock and seal holes correspending with those in the block, in eombination with the latch 0, provided with books or catches on the under side thereof, adapted to engage with the frame, substantially as shown and described.
3. In a car-door fastening, the dog II, pivoted to the frame, in combination with the latch, for the purpose set forth.
4. In a car-door fastening, the bracket havin g the bottomless sharp edged keeper I and sharp corrugations I, in combination with the latch, substantially as shown and described, for the purpose set forth.
