Description

CHRISTIAN W. CLARK, OF UNION, NEBRASKA.
CATCH FOR REFRIGERATORS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 14, 1908.
Application filed May 5, 1902. Serial N 0. 106,043.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHRISTIAN W. CLARK, residing at Union, (lock-box 165,) in the county of Cass and State of Nebraska, have invented certain useful Improvements in Catches for Refrigerators; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains tomake and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This inventlon relates to a new and novel improvement in latches for refrigerators.
The aim of my invention is to provide a latch more particularly adapted to be used in connection with refrigerators, cold storage cars and the like.
In the accompanying drawings I have shown in Figure 1, a front view of arefrigerator door provided with my improved latch. Fig. 2 shows a broken section of a door disclosing my latch in position, while Fig. 3 shows a detail of the latch stem.
11 carrying out the aim of my invention, which is to provide a latch which shall be simple of construction and arranged so that the same may be readily operated from opposite sides, I provide the door A with the usual hinges 1, 1, the door frame being provided with the usual keeper 2. Secured to the door at a suitable point is the ear 3 provided with the pin 4which holds the latch bar 5 adapted to work into the keeper 2. This latch bar 5 is provided with the ear 6, from which extends upward a rod 13 adapted to engage the tilting ,bar 10, rovided with the finger piece 12, to form a nger latch secured pivotally by means of a suitable pin 11, to theout- 'wardly bent operating lever 7. This lever 7 is secured below to the securing-plate 8, fastened to the door. This lever 7 is provided with an opening 00, see Fig. 2, through which the bar 5 passes, as shown.
Extendmg through a perforation within the door is a shaft 14, to which is secured a bar 15 forming a handle, as shown in Fig. 2 and this shaft works within a suitable opening within the lever 7, and is provided w1th a cam 19, so that in rotating the shaft 14, the cam 19, is carried upward to raise the tilting bar 10 to carry upward the latch bar 5. From this it will be seen that the latch bar 5 is raised from one side in carrying the tilting bar ,10 upward While it is o ened from the opposite side in revolving t e shaft 14 by means of the handle 15. The lever 7 is normally forced outward by means of the s ring I) secured to the door to prevent the atch from rattlin In Fig. 3 l have shown a detail of the shaft 14, the reduced stem 21 being shown which works within the lever 7. A plate 22 holds the shaft 14 upon one side, a pin a working through the shaft and upon the plate 22.
These latches are made of any suitable size or material.
Having thus described my said invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent, is.
The combination with a refrigerator door having a perforation near one edge, of an ear secured below said perforation, a pin carried by said ear, alatch bar secured to said pin having a perforated ear, a rod extending upward from said perforated ear, a securing plate positioned immediately below said per foration, an outwardly bent operating lever having an o ening near its lower secured end, said lever being pivotall secured to said plate, a tilting bar pivota ly secured to the upper end ofsaid o erating lever, said bar having a projecting nger piece, said rod at its upper end being secured to said tilting bar, a spring secured to said door to normally force said lever outward, and a shaft within said perforation having one end revolubly secured to said operating lever the remaining end having a handle, said shaft below said tilting bar having a cam, said latch bar extending through the opening within said 1ever, all arranged, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
CHRISTIAN W. CLARK. Witnesses:
R. DELANEY, GEO. P. BARTON.
