VAULT DOORS FOR BANKS AND BUSINESS INSTITUTIONS Filed March 19, 1953 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 IN V EN TOR.
CHARLES U. DE-AToN United States Patent'O VAULT DOORS FOR BANKS AND BUSINESS INSTITUTIONS Charles U. Deaton, Crestwood, Mo., assignor to Diebold, Incorporated, Canton, Ohio, a corporation of Ohio Application March 19, 1953, Serial No."343,368
8 Claims. c1. 109-64) This invention relates in general to certain new and useful improvements in vault doors for banks and business institutions. 7 p p i 7 At the present time, banks and business institutions commonly employ large vaults in which money, valuables, records, and locked safe deposit boxes are placed for safekeeping. The vaults of this type are ordinarily quite large and during the day-time employees and other users walk in and out of the vault freely through the doorways thereto. Such vaults are provided with heavy massive steel doors which can be swung into closurewis'e position across the doorway and locked by combination-controlled locking means, carefully constructed to be burglar-proof, tamper-proof, and fire-proof. These doorways and door structures, generally, are made of alloy steel designed to resist the attack of drills, acetylene torches, and various other implements used by criminals in endeavoring to break into the closed safe or vault and, accordingly, are veryheavy and cumbersome. Consequently, it is necessary to provide such doors with relatively rugged hinge structures and the doors, as such, are'usually approximately as thick as the walls of the vault itself and are f-requentlym-arginally bevelled to provide greater secur ity when closed. All of these structural and safety problems make it necessary to provide a relatively wide arc of SWing'fOI' the vault door, thereby consuming an unnecessarily large amount of floor space in front of the doorway which must be left free and unencumbered. Furthermore, conventional vault door hinges are pivoted at a relatively great distance from the center of gravity of the heavy mass or bulk of the door, so that when it is necessary to swing the door closed or swing it open, a greatamount of manual force and elfort is required to start the door in motion and, once the door is in motion, a similarly large amount of effort is required to stop it when it reaches or nears the limit of its travel and such energy must be exerted, because otherwise the door will slam shut with tremendous force, making a great deal of noise and'even sometimes damaging the delicate mechanism of the cornbination. q Y
Finally, most vault doors 'of the large heavy type are found in banks and, as is particularly true of safety deposit departments, the public can see the vault door when it is open. Since all vault doors presently in use SWing open about a laterally positioned hinged point, the interior or back face of the door swings out and is exposed to view when the door is open. Consequently, it is necessary for manufacturers of vault doors to expend a considerable amount of time and expense in polishing the various parts of the vault door mechanism which are exposed on the rear or inside face of the door, so that, when the door is swung open and such parts come into view, the appearance of the structure will be attractive in the sense that it presents a finished and highly polishedappearance. All of the gears which constitute the components of the time loclc combination and detentsetting mechanism inustbe ice highly polished and machined to present a desirable appearance.
It is, therefore, the primary object of the present invention to provide a vault door which is mounted on unique and novel hinge means, so that the door may be swung into and out of closed position with unusual case and a minimum of manual effort.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a vault door which is so mounted that it will swing open through an arc of movement, requiring much less floor space and clearance than conventional doors.
It is an additional object of the present invention to provide a vault door which is uniquely mounted for swinging movement in such a manner that the face of the door, which is presented outwardly when the door is closed, will at all times remain in outwardly presented position as the door is being swung open and as it reaches its fully opened position, so that only the finished outer face of the door is ever exposed to public view.
With the above and other objects in view, my invention resides in the novel features of form, construction, arrangement, and combination of parts presently described and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings (two sheets) Figure 1 is a fragmentary front elevational view of a vault doorway having a vault door constructed in accordance with and embodying the present invention and showing the vault door in closed position;
Figure 2 is a fragmentary front elevational view of a vault doorwayhaving a vault door constructed in accordance with and embodying the present invention and showing the vaultdoor in fully opened position;
Figures 3, 4, and 5 are fragmentary sectional views taken along lines 33, 44, and 5-5, respectively, of Figure l;
Figure 6 is a horizontal sectional view of the vault wall showing the vault door of the present invention in fully opened position;
Figure 7 is a fragmentary front elevational view of a vault wall having a modified form of vault door constructed in accordance with and embodying the present invention; and
Figures 8, 9, and 10 are fragmentary horizontal sectional views of the vault wall and vault door construction of Figure 7, respectively showing the vault door in fully closed, partially opened, and fully opened positions.
Referring now in more detail and by reference characters to the drawings, which illustrate practical embodiments of the present invention, A designates a conventional vault wall of heavy reinforced steel, concrete and masonry construction having a door opening 1 bounded or framed by a conventional steel frame 2 having a series of lateral recesses 3 for conventionally receiving the sliding bolts 4. Inasmuch as the locking mechanism of the safe which actuates the bolts 4 and operatively connects them with the combination are conventional and do not constitute a part of the present invention, such mechanism is not specifically shown or described in detail herein, it being merely suflicient to say that the vault door 5 is locked thereby when in closed position and contains a conventional combination knob 6 by which the bolts 4 may be locked in place when the vault door 5 is closed. The vault door 5 is also provided with a conventional lock operating handle 7 by which the bolts 4 are slid into and out of locked position when the combination 6 is off.
Bolted or otherwise suitably mounted upon the rear or inwardly presented face 8 of the vault door 5 is a hingebracket 9 having two laterally spaced vertical hinge pins 10, 11, and similarly mounted upon the interior face of 3 i the vault wall A, adjacent to the vertical margin of the door opening 1, is a second hinge-bracket 12 also having laterally spaced vertical hinge pins 13, 14. Swingably mounted at its opposite ends upon and extendingtransvers'ely between the hinge pius'10, 13, is a large hinge link 15 having somewhat bshaped horizontalc'rossfse'ctionsconforming to the horizontal cross-section of the edge of the vault door' and wall, as shown in Figure 6.
Similarly'mounted at its opposite ends and extending against the contour of the edge of the doorway'l, as
shown in Figure 6. It should be noted in this connection that the main hinge plate 16 is of relatively long heavy construction and supports the entire weight of the doorS, the link '15 serving merely as astabilizing m'echanism tomaintain the door parallel to the plane of the door opening throughout all positions of swinging movement, substantially as shown in'Figures 4, 5, and 6.
When the vault is closed, the vault door 5 will be positioned in the Opening, substantially as shown in Figure 1, with the combination 6 and lock operating handle 7 in forwardly presented position. The vault door '5 is preferably provided with a conventional pull handle 17, which is located'upon the forward face of the vault door 5 preferably in line with the hinge pin 11. When the vault door 5 is: unlocked, it may be pulled straightoutwardlyby grasping the handle 17 and, as outward pulling movement is continued, will swing clear ofthe door opening 1 and move laterally across and in front ofthe outwardly presented face of the vault wall A along a fiat arc of comparatively short radius, as shown in [dotted lines in Figu'res4 and 6, and will assume a position con'i pletelyto one side of the door opening flatwise against the outer face of the vault wall A, as shown in Figure 6. When it is necessary to close the vault, thevault door 5 may 'be swung backinto initial position'by reversing this sequence ,ofmovements.
If desired, it is possible to provide a modified form of vault door 5, which is substantially similar inall re spects to the previously described vault door 5, having hinge-brackets 9' 12, hinge pins 10', 11', 13, 14, a
sitioned so that it will readily receive the tongue 19 by positioning the handle 22 in the manner above described.
Thereupon, the handle 22 may be rotated so as to draw the tongue 19 down into the worm, pullingthe vault "doon closed position, as shown in 5"tightly into fully seated Figure 8.:
When the vault door 5' is opened, the handle 22 is rotated in the reverse direction, swinging the vault door outwardly through an initial forward portion of its move, ment and as the tongue 19 becomes disengaged from the,
4 worm 20, the vault door 5 is free to be manually swung into fully opened position.
The worm 20 and tongue 19 make it possible to pull the vault door 5' into and out of tightly sealed position without the use of complicated camming mechanisms commonly found at the present time in conventional vault door structures.
Itshould bev understood that changes and modifications in the form, construction, arrangement, and combination of the several parts of the vault door may be made and substituted for those herein shown and described without departing from the nature and principle of my invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
