Application filed April 20,1926. Serial No. 103,290.
This invention relates to door checks of the invertible type, and has for its object the production of a cheap and very strong door holder having parts of special con- '5 struction and arrangement, and which may be easily and conveniently operated by the foot entirely without the use of the hands.
The special construction and arrangement of the parts of this invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawings of which Fig.
lrepresents a door shown edgewise and having this, invention applied thereto in hold-' 7 ing position. Fig. 2 is a like view of a door with this inventioninverted and drawn in its vertical position against the door. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectionon the line 3 3 of Fig. 1.
' Throughout the drawings and this explanation the same number is used to refer to the same part. v Y a Considering the drawings, a door 1 has thereon a keeper 2 provided with a back plate 3 secured to the door in any manner, as by the screws 4:. The keeper hasprojecting ears through which pass a pivot bolt 5.
Z Referred to generally by the numeral 6 is a single piece of sheet metal bent upon itself to form the body of the check which is hollow. From the end of the piece of'metal on one side are the turned in shorter flanges or :o walls 7, and from the end of the piece on the other slde are the longer turned in flanges 8.
At the lower end of the hollow body is secured the non-metallic, floor-engaging foot 9. p
:5 The ends of the flanges 7 and 8 are the projecting stop members alternately brought into contact or engagement with the pivot bolt 5. That is to say, when the body 6 is inverted against the door 1 the end 10 of the 0 shorter flanges 7 rests on the pivot bolt 5,
but when the check is in operatingposition:
with the foot upon the floor,'the tops 11 of the flanges 8 press "against the bolt.
The construction described leaves atone 5 side of the body a longitudinal opening 12, and this opening is closed at'the topbythe bend of the metal piece, and engages the bolt 5 as illustrated. The opening enables the body to be slipped up .and down upon 0 the bolt 5.
In the operation of this invention, assume the body tobe in its vertical position against thedoor as shown in 2. A slight upward pressure by the foot on the bent end of the metal piece raises .the whole until the bolt occupies the rounded and bent end;
Now, the body becomes overbalanced and the end having the foot 9 falls into contact with The body assumes an inclined position as illustrated, and vif the door is pulled or wind blown the bolt and the upper ends of the longer, flanges meet, and no further movement of the door can take place. Obviously, a suitable movementcby the foot of the operator will turn the body up against the door again. As many modifications can be readily made in the parts of this invention, it is not intended that anything in,
this description shall limit the structures to the forms shown.
Having now described this invention and its operation, what I claim is 1. An invertible door check, comprising single piece of metal bent upon itself to form a hollow body, a non-metallicfloor-engaging foot secured in -the, lower end of the body, said body having shorter flanges on one side shorter flanges encounter the said bolt. p 2. An invertible door check, comprising a body portion, a floor-engaging foot secured in the lower part of the said body, a keeper secured to a door and having a pivot bolt, said body having an opening lengthwise at the side extending to the top of the body and and longerflanges on the othersiole leaving closed at the top and engaging the said bolt,
said body having two contact members, one,
of said members being located at said closed top of said opening on one side of the body andthe other member at the lower end of the said opening on the other side of thebody whereby when said foot engages the floor the top contact member engages the pivot bolt, and when the said body is in.-
verted. the lower of the said members engages the pivot bolt.
longitudinal openingthrough the said body,
a support havlng a pin arranged to engage the said opening and to meet the top of the longer flanges when the check is in operative position and a floor contact foot se- 1 cured in the end of the said body.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
