Description

PATENTED' AUG. 25, 1908.
W. W. MEYER. BOLT OPERATOR. APPLICATION FILED 111 3.25, 190s.
UNITED STATES PATENT QFFICE.
WILLIAM W. MEYER, OF OSHKOSl-I, WISCONSIN.
BOLT-OPERATOR.
Application filed April 25, 1908.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WVILLIAM W. MEYER, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Oshkosh, in the county of Winnebago and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain cient bolt-retractors, especially designed for facilitating the opening of doors of schoolhouses and auditoriurns of various kinds, particularly in case of fire; said invention consisting in the peculiar construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter specified with reference to the accompanying drawings and subsequently claimed.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a partly sectional view of a fragment of a door, its casing and bolt-extractor mechanism in accordance with my invention; Fig. 2, a front elevation of same, and Fig. 3, a horizontal view of a fragment of said mechanism partly in section.
Referring by letter to the drawings, A indi cates a do0r-casing, B the door and (l the uppermost of a pair of spring-bolts that have their casings secured to said door, suitable keepers being provided for the bolts.
The door is provided with bearing escutcheons D, E, for a knob-spindle F and the hub b of a plate G, this plate being of any preferred design. Like the knob H, the angular bore of a hub portion of the plate G has sliding fit on a corresponding angular portion of the spindle F, the remainder of this spindle being cylindrical and provided with a head 0 engaging a countersink of the escuteheon D upon the outside of the door. The door-knob is adjusted on its spindle to have its shank oppose the plate and thus hold the hub of this plate in engagement with the bearing escutcheon E provided for the same.
A link-rod or chain I connects each of the door-bolts C with the plate G and by turning the door-knob in either direction from normal position, said bolts are retracted, said plate being virtually a crank of the doorknob spindle.
From the foregoing it will be understood that the bolt-retracting mechanism cannot Specification of Letters Patent.

be tampered with from outside of the building to which the door is fitted, and by having the bolt-pull devices in crank-connec tion with the knob-spindle of said door, the simple act of turning said spindle in either direction frees the door and permits ready opening of the same. For school-house doors the boltretracting mechanism aforesaid is particularly applicable because of the common knowledge of even very young children that the turning of a door-knob will free the door to. which it belongs.
The crank-plate G is preferably provided with keeper-sockets or apertures d for the engagement of a lateral lug c of a spring-arm J having a spanner-end f riveted or otherwise rigidly secured to ears 9 of the escutcheon E, and a push-button h is preferably connected to the opposite end of said arm clear of said plate and the door-knob. The arm and its lug constitutes a spring-latch automatically engageable with either keeper socket or aperture in the crank-plate G to hold the door-bolts in retracted position, said plate being released when said arm is pushed back by pressure on its button g to disengage said lug from a keeper.
I claim:
1. A crank-and-keeper plate engageable with a door-knob spindle to turn either way therewith, a bolt-retracting device in con nection with the plate, and a spring-latch arranged to automatically engage said plate when the same is turned in either direction from normal position.
2. A crank-and-keeper plate engageable with a door-knob spindle to turn either way therewith, an escutcheon attachable to the door and constituting a bearing for a hub of the plate, and a spring-arm having a spanner-end fastened to ears of the escutcheon, and a plate-engaging pin extending laterally from the arm, the other end of said arm being clear of said plate and the door-knob.
3. A countersunk escutcheon attachable to the outer side of a door, a spindle having a cylindrical and headed portion engaging said escutcheon, another escutcheon attachable to the inner side of the door, a crank-and keeper plate having a hub-portion for which the inner escutcheon constitutes a bearing, the hub-bore'being in sliding fit upon an angular portion of said spindle, a knob having its shank fast on the angular portion of the spindle against the plate, a bolt-retracting the county of Winnebago and State of Wisdevice in connection with said plate, and a consin in the presence of two Witnesses.
