  • the lock of the present invention is a low profile, flush design, that protrudes from the window frame significantly less than the prior art, at about 8 mm compared to 25 mm in the current prior art designs.
  • the window is closed generally by a crank.
  • the strikes on the moving sash are brought close to the pins on a tie bar mounted to the non-moving window frame.

  • This drives a fork component within the lock, which engages the tie bar and drives it, moving the tie bar pins into engagement with corresponding hooks or strikes.
  • the fork component is preferably a flat structure adapted to slide within the lock casing, preferably having two extensions, such as leg portions, for engaging a tie bar.
  • the strikes generally have a ramp surface at their mouth and the pins slide up this ramp into engagement. This motion pulls the sash tightly against the window frame generating compression for sealing the sash to the window frame.
  • the locking mechanism of the present invention introduces a longitudinal slot in a sidewall of the casing for the lock, wherein a fork component translates within the slot in a direction perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the handle, and the handle is rotatable along a plane perpendicular to the fork component.
  • the pivot point of the handle and the restrictor arm shifts relative to the fork component to allow the handle to rotate approximately 1 50° from an initial position.
  • the handle directly drives a fork component or the tie bar - structural limitations that result in a higher profile appearance.

  • Pivot pin 1 1 is preferably located at an intermediate point on handle 7 between the handle endpoints at a distance closer to the main casing 1 and escutcheon than the handle's grip portion end 1 6. This allows for greater mechanical leverage by a user when pulling handle 7 upwards or pushing handle 7 downwards.
  • a spring action push mechanism 70 may be embedded in casing 4 near the handle grip potion 1 6.
  • Push mechanism 70 acts to maintain the handle 7 in a flush position relative to the casing when handle is in the locked position, and to release the handle for rotation to the unlocked position, as will be described in further detail below.
  • Flush lock handle mechanism 100 in its operating condition, is encased in snap-on escutcheon 4 and main casing 1 . In Fig. 3, the snap-on escutcheon 4 has been removed for clarity.
  • Fig. 3 further illustrates the connection of handle 7 to restrictor arm 2A, 2B via pivot pin 1 1 at an intermediate point from each end of handle 7, as well as the connection of fork component 5 to an end of handle 7, rotatable about a hinge, pivot pin 10.
  • handle 7 is designed to pivot about restrictor arm 2A, 2B and fork component 5 via pivot pins 10 and 1 1 , respectively.
  • handle 7 is not directly connected to, nor does it pivot directly about, main casing 1 or escutcheon 4. As discussed further herein, this linkage contributes to the low profile design of the lock mechanism and the over center operation that prohibits back driving the flush lock mechanism.
  • a fork component 5 is employed that is similar to some prior art designs, insomuch as a fork component is used to engage a tie bar during locking and unlocking actuation.
  • fork component 5 drives a tie bar or lock bar that is mounted to the frame.
  • the tie bar engages a series of strikes that are mounted to the moving sash. Once the tie bar is engaged with the strikes, the window is locked.
  • One end of handle 7 pivotally connects to fork component 5 via hinge or pivot pin 10, which may be a rivet or other rotatable, pivoting attachment.
  • the opposite end of restrictor arm 2A, 2B is pivotally connected to casing 1 via hinge or pivot pin 12.
  • pivot pin 1 1 connecting the handle and restrictor arm shifts vertically, as well as transversely, relative to pivot pin 10 to allow the handle to rotate from an initial position.
  • handle 7 is permitted to rotate approximately 1 50° from its initial position, as shown in Fig. 9.
  • Fig. 2 is an exploded view of the flush lock handle mechanism 100.
  • Fork component 5 includes an extension or protrusion 6, protruding from said fork component body for engaging longitudinal slot 14 in the sidewall of the casing.
  • fork component 5 may include a track segment 8 on its body that receives an extension or lip protruding from the top portion of slot 14.
  • Handle 7 is received between two raised portions of fork extension 6, each raised portion comprising an aperture for receiving pivot pin 10 therethrough to pivotally connect handle 7 to fork component 5 (Figs. 3-4).
  • Fig. 4 depicts a left side perspective view of the sub-assembly of the flush lock mechanism shown in Fig. 3, with a snap-on escutcheon 4A shown covering the top portion of handle 7.
  • the subassembly may further include a spring action magnetic push mechanism 70 for maintaining the handle in flush position relative to the casing 1 when in a locked position.
  • a spring action magnetic push mechanism 70 for maintaining the handle in flush position relative to the casing 1 when in a locked position.
  • spring action pedestal 71 Embedded in the push mechanism is spring action pedestal 71 and at least one permanent magnet 72 having a polarity opposite permanent magnet 73 which may be embedded in an end of handle 7 opposite pivot pin 10 (Fig. 9).
  • the distance, and therefore the strength of magnetic attraction, between magnets 72, 73 is such that to release the handle for rotation, a user may pulse the end 1 6 of the handle downward in the direction of casing 1 to compress spring pedestal 71 , and upon release, the energy stored in the compressed spring upon returning to its normally biased state is sufficient to overcome the magnetic attraction between magnets 72, 73, resulting in handle 7 being freely rotatable after being biased upwards by the spring action pedestal 71 .
  • fork component 5 may include a track segment 8 on its body that receives an extension or lip protruding from the top portion of slot 14. In either attachment scheme, fork component 5 is able to slide horizontally in slot 14 along the elongated horizontal casing structure when induced by the actuation of handle 7.
  • hinge A or pivot 10 is the pivotal junction of handle 7 and fork component 5.
  • Hinge B or pivot 1 1 is the pivotal junction of handle 7 with restrictor arm 2A, 2B at an intermediate point on handle 7.
  • Hinge C or pivot 12 is the pivotal junction of restrictor arm 2A, 2B with the casing, as shown in Fig. 5.
  • Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the lock mechanism of the present invention with main casing 1 removed, depicting the positioning of three hinge points A, B, C when handle 7 is in the locked position. Hinge B is shown below the line of action 50 between hinges A and C. This relationship allows for the locking mechanism to utilize over center linkage at the ends of travel, and prevents the system from being back-driven (i.e., someone trying to break into the window by reversing the locking mechanism). Since hinge B is below the line of action 50 between hinges A and C, the system is not back drivable. In this manner, this configuration produces a "three bar linkage" design. It also allows handle 7 to move over a very wide operating angle and return to a flush or low profile position.
  • the first of the three bar links is formed by handle 7 between the pivot 10 (hinge A) connected at fork component 5 and pivot 1 1 (hinge B) connected at restrictor arm 2A, 2B.
  • a second bar or link is formed by restrictor arm 2A, 2B and pivots at each end thereof (hinges B and C).
  • the third bar or link of the three bar linkage is created by fork component 5 (hinge A) and the horizontal sliding motion of fork 5 component relative to the fixed pivot point 12 of the restrictor on the body of the casing (hinge C).
  • the three bar linkage uses these three links pivotally connected at the ends (pivot points) so that the three links can move relative to each other.
  • Figs. 8-12 depict the handle 7 in a fully opened position.
  • pivot pin 1 1 or hinge B gradually shifts vertically, as well as transversely, from the horizontal over the length of travel as the fork component moves horizontally within slot 14 along main casing 1 , perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the handle, as the handle rotates from a locked to an unlocked position. Without such rising, a binding condition would be experienced as the fork component is moved through its horizontal transition.
  • actuating handle 7 serves to move pivot pin 1 1 simultaneously to a raised (or lowered) position while the fork component 5 is moved horizontally within slot 14, as the handle rotates between locked and unlocked positions. This allows handle 7 "clearance" to rotate about its pivot points without requiring extra depth to the casing, and in fact, reducing the depth of the casing, making the casement window lock more flush with the mounting frame.
  • Retainer 60 provides a surface for mounting screws to bear down on.
  • Retainer 60 is an elongated, flush component, having a slot or track 62 extending along a length thereof for receiving a portion of fork component 5 when the fork component translates within casing slot 14 as handle 7 is rotated between open and closed positions.
  • Retainer 60 further includes a pair of indentations 63 indicating the ends of travel of the fork component 5 as the handle is rotated.
  • Two screw holes 68 are introduced at approximately each end for mounting the flush lock mechanism.
  • a detent at both ends of travel (open and locked).
  • a detent spring 9 (refer to Fig. 2) is located underneath fork component 9, between the fork component and retainer 60.
  • Detent spring 9 provides tactile and audible indication that the lock mechanism has reached its end of travel. Additionally, a detent helps sustain handle 7 in the correct position at its end of travel.
  • Figs. 2-7 and 9-1 3 depict a retainer 60 having preferred shaped detents 63 to receive and accommodate detent spring 9 as fork component 5 translates within slot 14.
  • Fig. 7 depicts a bottom plan view of the lock mechanism in the locked detent position (detent spring 9 is engaged with the right-sided indentation or detent 63) when the handle is in the locked position
  • Fig. 13 depicts a bottom plan view of the lock mechanism in the unlocked detent position (detent spring 9 is engaged with the left-sided indentation or detent 63) when the handle is in the unlocked position.
  • a spring washer 3 is preferably employed between restrictor arm 2 and main casing 1 (Figs. 2-3).
  • This spring washer preferably a Belleville spring washer, is capable of providing large amounts of force with very little deflection, thus allowing the present invention to provide upwards of 75 pounds of load with two-tenths of one millimeter (0.2 mm) of deflection.
  • Spring washer 3 also accommodates production variances while maintaining a pre-load force on restrictor arm 2.
  • Fig. 3 depicts a partial perspective view of the subassembly showing spring washer 3 in position.
  • the present invention achieves a low profile casement window lock that far exceeds the profile depth of casement window locks of the prior art by introducing a longitudinal slot in a sidewall of the casing for the lock, wherein the fork component translates within the slot in a direction perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the handle as the handle rotates along a plane perpendicular to the fork component.
  • the present invention establishes a locking structure with multiple pivoting points that allows the handle to rotate completely with minimally required clearance in the casing housing.
  • the pivoting action of the handle and restrictor arm allows the handle to move the fork component horizontally while raising or lowering the restrictor arm pivot pin in relation to the fork component, with the fork component in slideable communication with a longitudinal slot in a sidewall of the casing.
  • the multiple pivoting action provides for a three bar linkage that secures the casement window lock in either the open, unlocked position, or closed, locked position, and prevents back driving the lock mechanism in the reverse direction.
