COMBINATIONTRAY AND DOOR BOLT Filed Oct. 12, 1954 Patented Apr. 14, 1936 are STATES 6 Claims,
It is well known that women quite frequently have their rings and other jewelry stolen by inadvertently leaving them in a washroom, after having removed the jewelry to facilitate bathing.
It is the object of'my invention to provide a jewelry tray or receptacle that will be so associated with the bolting or locking of the washroom door that if the womanwill take the trouble to place her removed jewelry in the tray after she bolts or looks the door, she will be likely to be reminded to repossess herself of the jewelry before she is able to unbolt the door for egress from the washroom.
Referring to the drawing annexed,
Fig. 1 is a perspective View of a preferred form of my device applied to a door-way;
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view thereof; and
Fig. 3 is a front view thereof with the jewelry tray down, in non-used position.
Referring to the drawing by reference characters, 5 designates a bolt-support consisting of a flat plate adapted to be fastened to the inner face of the door by the several screws 6, this plate being provided at each end with a forwardly extending arm 1 in which is slidably and rotatably mounted a bolt 8. Affixed rigidly to this bolt at a point between the arms I is the inner edge of a tray 9. Each one of the arms 1 is provided with a tray-supporting lug III which extends inwardly towards the adjacent edge of the tray.
The tray is made narrower than the distance between the two supporting lugs l0, so that when the tray is not resting on either one of these lugs, it will gravitate or swing down to a vertical position in parallelism with the inner face of the door, as shown particularly in Fig. 2. The bolt 8 is long enough to project laterally beyond both arms 'i, so that either end of the bolt may be used as a lock or bolt. The main support 5 is affixed to the door at a point where one projecting end of the bolt, when slid outwardly by a lateral movement of the tray 9, which is used as a sort of handle for this purpose, said projecting end of the bolt will engage a keeper ll affixed to an adjacent part of the door frame, in line with the bolt.
It will be observed that when the door is closed and the tray is raised to a point above the lugs I0 and is moved laterally toward the keeper, the bolt will slide in the holes in the arm 1 and be engaged with the keeper ll, whereupon the tray may be released and allowed to gravitate to a resting point on the adjacent supporting lug Ill. The tray will then be in a position to receive therings: and other jewelry, and since it will be impossible to unlock the door without takinghold of the tray to withdraw the bolt, the occupant of the room will be likely to be reminded of the jewel ry upon the tray, or be forced to-dum'p the jewelry upon the floor at her feet. It will-thus be observed that if the occupant of the. room opens the-door from-the inside and has been careful to previously place her jewelry upon the tray, there will be practically no chance of her forgetting to gather up her jewelry before she leaves the room.
Duplication of the bolt extension and the tray support I0 renders the device applicable to a left-swinging door or a right-swinging door, as is obvious.
In order to prevent the bolt being slid into locking position without first lifting the tray to article-holding position, I provide guard fingers II) which are desirably formed by extensions of the tray-support bars l0, these extensions being turned backwardly parallel with the arms I and terminated at a point under the bolt. With these guard members l0, it will be seen that the bolt and its tray can have no appreciable sliding action until the tray is lifted to a point above the lugs l0 and guards l0, whereupon the tray and the bolt may be moved to locking positions. This obviously renders the device fool-proof.
It will be understood of course that my device may be used with advantage in connection with rooms or booths other than washrooms, and that the article-holding member 9 may be sufficiently capacious to hold articles other than jewelry, as for instance, purses, small handbags, etc.
I claim:
1. A device of the class described embodying a slidable and rotatable door bolt and a support therefor, the support being adapted to be attached to the inner face of the door, said support being provided with a tray-support, and a tray attached to said bolt and adapted to slide and rotate with it and to rest upon said tray-support when the bolt is in looking position and to be disconnected therefrom when the bolt is in non-locking position to thereby support the tray in use-position when the door is bolted and to permit it to assume a non-use or dumping position when the bolt is moved to non-locking position.
2. A device of the type set forth embodying a main support adapted to be attached to a door and provided with a tray-support, a slidable and rotatable bolt mounted in said main support, and a tray aflixed to said bolt and adapted to slide and rotate with it so that the tray may be raised and laterally moved into engagement with the tray-support when the bolt is moved to locking position.
3. In a device of the class described, a doorlocking element having associated with it an article-holding member normally tending to dump and a device for supporting the articleholding member in use-position when the locking element is moved to locking position and to release said article-holding member when the locking element is moved to unlocking position.
4. The structure recited in claim 3, the locking element consisting of a slidable bolt and the article-holding member consisting of a tray-like member afiixed to and adapted to slide with said bolt.
5. A device of the class described embodying a slidable and rotatable door bolt and a support therefor, the support being adapted to be attached to the inner face of the door, said support being provided with a tray-support, and a tray attached to said bolt and adapted to slide and rotate with it and to rest upon said tray-support when the bolt is in looking position and to be disconnected therefrom when the bolt is in non-locking position to thereby support the tray in use-position when the door is bolted and to permit it to assume a non-use position when the bolt is moved to non-locking position, the ends of the bolt being extended beyond the support at both ends thereof and one of the tray-supports being located at each end of the device to thereby adapt the device for use on left-swinging doors as well as upon right-swinging doors.
6. A device of the class described, embodying a slidable and rotatable door bolt and a support therefor, the support being adapted to be attached to the inner face of the door, said support being provided with a tray-support, and a tray attached to said bolt and adapted to slide and rotate with it and to rest upon said tray-support when the bolt is in locking position and to be disconnected therefrom when the bolt is in nonlocking position to thereby support the tray in use-position when the door is bolted and to permit it to assume a non-use position when the bolt is moved to non-locking position, the ends of the bolt being extended beyond the support at both ends thereof and one of the tray-supports being located at each end of the device to thereby adapt the device for use on left-swinging doors as well as upon right-swinging doors, said tray-supports extending toward each other and being separated by a distance greater than the width of the tray, for the purpose set forth.
