LOCK CONSTRUCTION FOR GLASS DOORS
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
An improved lock is provided for hinged glass doors which can be attached to the doors without the need for attachment screws and the like. The lock includes a pair of coacting casings which include suction-type secu-ring means for attaching the casings to the respective doors. The first casing comprises a single piece inte-gral metal housing which is open on one side and includes a locking mechanism, having an associated lock bolt, which is disposed in and occupies approximately one-half of the housing, the other half being empty. The second casing member comprises a base portion which is similar to the first housing and includes, in addition, an "upper" or overlying portion which extends parallel to the base por-tion and is affixed thereto by an upstanding wall located in approximately the middle of the base portion. In the operative position of the lock, the empty half of the first casing overlies the upper portion of the second cas-ing and the lock bolt extends through the upstanding wall of the second casing to provide locking.

I.OCK CONSTRUCTION FOR GLASS DOORS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
, The present invention relates to locks for doors and, more particularly, to an improved construction lock for hinged glass doors which can be attached thereto without the need for attachment screws or the like.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention concerns a lock construction which is particularly adapted for use with hinged glass doors wherein, for example, the mating edges of the doors are brought together to provide closing. Among other advan-tages, the lock construction of the invention that elimi-nates the need for employing attachment screws or like securing elements which require that holes be made in the door glass. Moreover, although the attachment provided is extremely sound, with the lock construction being solid-ly adhered to the door glass, the nature of attachment per-mits easy use of the lock construction and the installatlon .:
'~ of the lock construction at any height.
According to a preferred embodiment thereof, the lock construction of the invention comprises first and se-cond coacting casings~ The first casing comprises a sin-gle piece integral housing member which is open on one side `~
thereof and includes a standard locking mechanism, includ-ing a lock bolt, disposed in, and occupying approximately one-half of, the lock casing. The other half of the casing -$~

The first casing is adapted to be secured to the door glass by se-curing means in the form of a pad including engagement fins that provide a suction effect. The second casing in-cludes a base member which is similar to the housing member of the first casing and an "upper" or overlying member which extends parallel to and is spaced from the base mem-ber. The upper member overlies approximately one-half of the base member and is affixed thereto by an upstanding wall extending at 90 from the upper member and disposed ---in the middle of the base member. Gaskets, including en-gagement fins such as discussed above, are located in re-cesses in both the upper and base members. With the lock in the operative position, the "empty" portion of the housing member of the first casing fits over the "upper"
member of the second casing and the lock bolt extends through an aperture in the wall of the second casing to ; provide latching or lGcking.
