Claims.
This invention relates to a latch of the type adapted to be applied to a door, and preferably to be operated by inside and outside handles.
It is the object of this invention to contribute a latch equipped with pivoting inside and outside handles, and having suitable controls for rendering the outside handle ineffective to open the door to which the latch is applied while leaving the inside handle always effective.
It is the further object of the invention to contribute a latch having pivoting handles, in which the means that render the outside handle ineffective are automatically released upon either the closing movement of the door or upon operation of the inside pivoting handle.
One feature of my invention whereby the objects thereof are achieved, resides in the utilization of pivoting handles and a, latchbolt retracted by said pivoting handles, together with a dog for rendering the outside handle ineifective, the said dog being movable at all times into a retracted position by the inside handle, and preferably also by the strike.
A further feature of my invention resides in the utilization of a dog that is cooperative with the same strike with which the latchbolt interlocks, both the dog and latchbolt being retractable by the inside handle, while merely the latchbolt is retractable by the outside handle.
A further feature of my invention resides in the manner in which the dog and latchbolt are mounted on a door for control by the inside and outside handles. A still further feature of this portion of my invention resides in the novel means of connection between the outside handle and the latchbolt, and the inside handle and latchbolt, whereby the entire latch assembly is readily applied to a door with a minimum of effort.
I have thus described the more important aspects and features of my invention in order that the description that follows may be more readily understood. However, there are several addi-- tional features which will be particularly referred to in the specification and which will form the subject matter of certain of the claims appended hereto. Those knowing the art will appreciate that I have made a contribution of considerable breadth to the art, and that those skilled in the art will readily develop latching structures utilizing the basic principles of my contribution but in other forms of mechanisms. I do not therefore wish to be limited to the particular structures I have herein set forth embodying my in vention. i
Referring now to the drawings, Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing my latch as it appears from the inside of the door to which it is applied. Fig. 2 illustrates the latch as it appears from the outside of the door to which it is applied. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section through the door nd latch showing the latchbolt in latching position and the dog in release position. Fig. 4 is a view of the parts of Fig. 3 showing the latchbolt released through movement of the outside handle and illustrating the action that takes place under operation of the inside handle. Fig. 5 is a section taken along lines 5-5 of Fig. 3. Fig. 6 is a view of the parts of Fig. 3 showing the dog in dogging position. Fig. 7 is a view showing the manner in which the dog is moved to release position by the strike upon closing movement of the door. Fig. 8 is a perspective view of the inside mounting member.
Referring now more particularly to the drawings, and especially Figs. 1, 2 and 8, reference numeral I 0 refers to an inside mounting member while reference numeral H indicates an outside mounting member. Member I0 is secured to'the door by screws traversing bores in its ears Hia,
while outside mounting member II is secured to the door by screws traversing bores in its ears i la. The outside mounting supports a shaft l2, and pivoted on shaft I2 is an outside handle l3. The inside mounting member supports a shaft I4 and pivoted on shaft [4 is an inside handle I 5..
As is well illustrated in Figs. 3, 4 and 5, both the inside and outside handles are channel shaped preferably, at least where the pivot shafts I2 and I4 traverse the said handles. As a mat ter of interest, I prefer to manufacture the handles l3 and [5 from some plastic material although the' handles may be made from metal, as those skilled in the art will appreciate. Similarly, the latchbolt and dog to be hereinafter set forth may be made from plastic or metal, as may prove desirable.
In addition to the inside handle Hi, there is mounted on the pivot shaft Hi of the inside mounting member it, a latchbolt l6 and a dog 2 It is of course seen that the flanges [5a. and I51) of the inside handle l5 lie directly against the inside surfaces of a lower plate l8 and an upper plate [9 of the inside mounting member [0 as best shown in Fig. 5. Latch bolt l6 will lie between the lower flange I 5b of the handle l5 and a central plate ll of member ill. Between the upper flange I511. of the handle 15, and the central plate ll, there will lie the dog 29 as probably best shown in Fig. 5. Both the bolt l6 and the dog 20 will of course rotate about the same shaft M on which the handle i5 is rotatable.
A spring 2| is coiled about the shaft IE and lies within a slot 22 in the latchbolt I6. It has one leg 23 pressing against the back plate 24 of the mounting member ll], while its other leg presses against the bottom surface of the slot 22. From the several figures of the drawings, it is readily perceived that the spring 2| willurge the latchbolt [6 into its latching position of Fig. 3, wherein it is shown in cooperation with a strike 25. A shoulder 26 on the latchbolt l6 cooperates with a surface 27 of the handle I5 whereby to urge the handle into'its po's'ition of Fig. 3. In other words, the same spring 2l that; a
maintains the latchbolt It in its latching position, serves also to maintaimthe handle -.l5-= in its normal position of Figs. 1 and 3. Through cooperation of shoulder 26 and surface 21, latchbolt [6 is retractable from its position of Fig. l .to'; its position .ofr-Fig: 4,;- upon swinging :movern enlt oi 17h? handle 1;] ,5: from iits :li-ne position in Figs.

The dog 20 has already been re'ferredto genera-lly and has-been indicated as being mounted about the shaft 14 andbetweenthe upper flange 15a, of the inside handle 15 and the central plate l'ihof theinsid e mounting member it]. The dog may be called a dogging latchbolt and is formed for cooperation with strike" ers best illustrated in Fig. 6. As a matter of fact; it will cooperate with the strike '25 in substantiallythe same manner asdoes the latchbolt i 6;-whereupon it will lock the door D against opening movement just as does the latchbolt [6.
