Description
Patented May 29, 1941 UNETEE STATEd 7 Claims.
The invention relates to a knob assembly of the type comprising a shank with a knob at opposite ends thereof and means for adjusting the knobs relative to each other on the shank to accommodate the door therebetween.
Devices of this type are usually constructed to provide variations in the operative length of the spindle connecting the knobs, so as to accommodate the assembly to doors of varying thicknesses. At best, in the known devices there is offered only a crude adjustment, and, unless the door thickness happens to be just right for some one of the pre-set points of adjustments, the assembly will rattle more or less in its mounting on the door. Even in those cases where the mounting of the assembly originally is just right, that is, with a permissible freedom of rotation of the assembly without rattle or looseness of play, in time this ideal condition is lost due to numerous causes, such as, shrinking of the wood in the case where the assembly is mounted on a wooden door, or, due to the wearing of relatively moving parts, too much play subsequently develops.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a form of adjustable knob assembly by means of which the knobs can be quickly drawn together until there is a snug and even a too-tight binding between the knobs and the door or a binding which may even resist any rotation of the knob assembly, and then by a minute, or an infinitesimal backing 01f of one of the knobs from this extreme limiting position, any desired degree or refinement of freedom of rotation may be obtained without going to the other extreme of having a too-loose mounting such as characterizes present known forms of such devices.
Another object of the invention is to provide a form of adjustment between one of the knobs and the spindle which adjustment is easily accessible without dismounting any part of the assembly and which adjustment can be readily attained by unskilled labor, and without the use of tools, except a coin or screw driver and which will provide for the micrometrical adjustment of the associated knob on the spindle as herein featured.
Broadly, the invention contemplates the use of a nut carried by one of the knobs, and which nut turns on a threaded portion of the shank and in which, preferably, extremely fine threads are used so as to provide a slow or small feed of the nut along the shank per complete turn of the nut and a means for locking the nut in any minute angle of rotation in which it may be set incidentally to the advancing and backing off of the handle from the limiting snug door engaged position above disclosed.
Various other objects and advantages of the invention will be in part obvious from an inspection of the accompanying drawing and in part will be more fully set forth in the following particular description of one form of knob assembly embodying the invention, and the invention also consists in certain new and novel features of construction and combination of parts hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In the accompanying drawing:
Fig. 1 shows in vertical section of a portion of a door and lock showing installed therein, a knob assembly constituting a preferred embodiment of the invention and shown partly in axial section;
Fig. 2 is a view in end elevation of the right hand knob of Fig. l; and
Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1 looking in the direction indicated by the arrows.
In the drawing and referring first to Fig. 1, there is shown a door A in which is mounted a lock 13 and which door has on opposite sides thereof the usual face plates C and D. Extending through the door lock and face plates is the square portion of a shank of a door knob assembly to one end of which shank is rigidly mounted a knob H and on the other end is slidably mounted a knob l2. Knob :2, due to its hollow construction, will be referred to hereinafter sometimes as a knob shell.
For convenience of construction, the knob shell 12 is formed of two parts l3 and M, conventionally brazed together after the nut, hereinafter described, has been assembled in place, The inner part it is provided with a neck !5 in which is fitted a sleeve 98, the bore of which is square or otherwise non-circular in cross section so as to be slidably, but not rotatively, mounted upon the square portion of the shank Ii]. To this extent, the showing is of conventional design.
The shank is provided at its right end with a threaded extension i7 intruded axially into a cylindrical spring barrel I8 forming an inward ex tension from the center of the outer face l9 out of the outer shell part M. A long nut 20 is provided axially thereof with a bore El in threaded engagement with the threads on the extension ll of the shank. The nut is provided at its outer exposed end with a screw head 22 provided with a kerf 23 by means of which the nut may be engaged by a screw driver or even a coin to advance, or retreat, the nut on the spindle extension. The rear or inner end of the nut is provided with an outstanding flange or head 24 secured thereto as by braising and facing an inturned annular flange 25 defining the inner end of the barrel [8. The abutting faces of the head 24 and flange 25 are provided with a large number, materially greater than four, of radially disposed teeth 26. There is thus formed a crown-head type of two way clutch ratchet to lock the nut to the shell knob.
It is a feature of this disclosure that these teeth are as closely positioned radially as is possible to locate them within the practical limits of a device of this kind. The teeth of each clutch element are sharply V-shape in cross section. In one practical embodiment of the invention, sixty teeth were on the nut, so that in this form the succeeding teeth were radially spaced about six degrees (6) apart, A coiled spring 21 is located between the head 22 and the flange 25 normally tending to maintain the side face clutch thus formed by the teeth on the nut head 24 and, on the annular flange 25 in locked position to resist accidental rotation of the nut relative to both the shank and knob 52.
In operation and assuming the lock B and face plates C and D to be properly located on the door A, the shank H) with knob H attached, but with knob 12 removed, is inserted through the door and lock until the knob II is advanced as far as possible into firm engagement with the face plate C. Knob i2 is then located on the exposed right end of the spindle as shown in Fig. 1 until the threaded portion I1 is received in the bore 2i of the nut. Then, by means of a screw driver or similar tool engaging in kerf 23, the nut is rotated on the threaded extension ll while the operator holds the spindle from rotat ing by holding knob l2 from rotating. As the nut is advanced from right to left of the showing in Fig. 1, it will react through the spring 21 and flange 25 to advance the knob l2 as a whole until the neck l thereof engages firmly and snugly against the face plate D. Continued rotation of the nut beyond this initial contact between knob 12 and plate D will react through the spindle to take up any slack or clearance be tween the knob l i and its associated face plate C In practice, the nut will be advanced inwardly as far as possible, that is, until the nut cannot be turned any further, at which point the knobs are engaging through the associated face plates so snugly as to defeat or, at least resist, rotation of the knobs due to the frictional engagement between the ends of the necks and their associated face plates. This is a too-snug engagement as it is, of course, required that the knobs be rotated by manual action without too much resistance to such rotary movement.
\Vith the knob l2 thus advanced to its limiting position towards the door, the operator then re rotates the nut in the opposite direction over the slightest possible angle which will release the binding engagement of the knobs with their respective face plates. In the event that this backing oif movement of the nut be carried too far, that is, where there is a looseness of parts after the knob assembly has been in use for awhile, the nut is again advanced into the limiting position suggested and again backed away from this limiting position for a less degree of angular rotation. In those cases where the pitch of the threads on the extension II is small, the nut advance, even if it were turned over a complete revolution from its snug position, would mean only a slight axial retreat of the nut, but, in the case above suggested there is provided an automatic locking of the nut at each 6 of angular turn, and it may be said practically that the knobs can be set at any desired spacing from their associated face plates. As soon as axial pressure of the screw driver or similar tool is removed from the nut, the associated clutch faces automatically re-engage by virtue of the action of the spring and the spacing of the knobs apart is fixed until the wearing of the parts or other conditions necessitate a resetting of the knob assembly. It is, of course, theoretically possible that the threads of the clutch faces meet exactly edge to edge but, if one of the clutch faces contains one more tooth than the other clutch face, this possibility is avoided; and, in any case, as the teeth of one clutch endeavors to seat in the troughs of the other clutch, the clutches will interengage automatically with a slight, practically imperceptible, relative rotation and the spring will act to resist any further rotative movement of the nut on the threaded extension of the shank.
While there have been shown, described and pointed out in the annexed claims, certain novel features of the invention, it will be understood that various omissions, substitutions and changes in the form and details of the device illustrated and in its operation may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention I claim:
