- This invention relates to a narrow backset lock for doors with narrow stiles. I particularly contribute by my invention a narrow stile lock having novel means for controlling and deadlocking the lock bolt.
- narrow stile locks have very limited space available for the lock mechanism. This creates a considerable problem, particularly in the designing of satisfactory means that will act automatically for deadlocking the bolt.
- the bolt itself must be short in order that it may move to retracted position in the lock, yet the deadlocking means must be arranged to coact with the bolt when fully projected.
- the lock mechanism naturally includes manual or key operated means that move the bolt and that simultaneously control the deadlocking action. All of this structure must'operate in the very short space that is available in a narrow stile lock.
- 1 utilize in my lock a novel deadlocking tumbler that, together with the coacting parts of the lock, may be utilized in a relatively short space in the lock. More particularly, I form the deadlocking tumbler with surfaces through which it is in direct coacting relation to a trigger bolt, a latchbolt, and actuating means for the tumbler, and I do not require intermediate parts for the tumbler action. I prefer to arrange these tumbler surfaces one above the other, so that the tumbler will coact with both bolts and the actusting means at points that are substantially aligned in a vertical direction. The tumbler itself moves Vertically, and this together with the particular form of the tumbler enables me to arrange the lock mechanism in a very narrow lock case.

- Fordeadlocking the latchbolt 13 ofmy extremely novel I lock,-I utilize a tumbler 34, best seen in Fig.7, that moves relation to latchbolt lug through upward movement of tumbler 34, as may be seen in Fig. 3, when the latchbolt 13 isjn projected position; The tumbler 34 is then in dogging position, and deadlocks the'latchbolt 13.

- latchbolt 33 is in projected position, as in Fig. 2, but t e door is closed and trigger bolt .14 is held de ressed by strike A so that its lug 17' no longer ed tumbler surface 46a.
- keyplug cam 31 During its rotation to the Fig. 5 position, keyplug cam 31 has held the sliding cam 38 depressed so that its lug 43 has moved under the portion do on tumbler 34,. Upon moving the latchbolt 13 to retracted position, the cam 31 by its rotation moves away from sliding cam 38, as shown in Fig. 5. Cam 31 simultaneously moves over the upper portion 33a on latchbolt 13, thus acting to hold the latchbolt in retracted position against the pressure of latehbolt spring 1?. This enables the sliding cam 38 to move upwardly by its spring pressure, while acting through its lug 43 to move tumbler .34 upwardly to dogging position, all as shown in Fig. 5, The tumbler surface 45 now coacts with latchbolt lug 15 to dog latchbolt 1'3 in retracted position. When rotating further to its normal neutral position, keyplug cam 31 will, of course, move away from the upper tumbler portion 330.
- Fig. 6 shows what happens when the latchbolt 13 is depressed by the strike A during the closing movement or the door.

19 Claims. (Cl. 79-151) This invention relates to a narrow backset lock for doors with narrow stiles. I particularly contribute by my invention a narrow stile lock having novel means for controlling and deadlocking the lock bolt.
Those persons skilled in the art will understand that narrow stile locks have very limited space available for the lock mechanism. This creates a considerable problem, particularly in the designing of satisfactory means that will act automatically for deadlocking the bolt. The bolt itself must be short in order that it may move to retracted position in the lock, yet the deadlocking means must be arranged to coact with the bolt when fully projected. The lock mechanism naturally includes manual or key operated means that move the bolt and that simultaneously control the deadlocking action. All of this structure must'operate in the very short space that is available in a narrow stile lock.
it will be appreciated also that it is very desirable to construct the bolt as a latchbolt that is deadlocked, but that can be depressed through engagement with a strike. However, a further problem is involved in utilizing such an arrangement in a narrow stile lock, since additional means for controlling the deadlocking action must then be mounted in the short space within the lock. in conventional locks, it is customary to utilize a trigger bolt for this purpose, as will be appreciated, but a trigger bolt requires considerable space Within the lock and prior art constructions are not suited to narrow stile locks. In the narrow stile lock that I have now conceived, I utilize deadlocldng means that have very considerable advantages over the prior art, and that enable me particularly to equip the lock with a latchbolt and a trigger bolt that controls the deadlocking of the latchbolt.
As an important feature of my invention, 1 utilize in my lock a novel deadlocking tumbler that, together with the coacting parts of the lock, may be utilized in a relatively short space in the lock. More particularly, I form the deadlocking tumbler with surfaces through which it is in direct coacting relation to a trigger bolt, a latchbolt, and actuating means for the tumbler, and I do not require intermediate parts for the tumbler action. I prefer to arrange these tumbler surfaces one above the other, so that the tumbler will coact with both bolts and the actusting means at points that are substantially aligned in a vertical direction. The tumbler itself moves Vertically, and this together with the particular form of the tumbler enables me to arrange the lock mechanism in a very narrow lock case.
As a further feature, I so construct my lock that the deadlocking tumbler can dog the latchbolt in retracted position. When acting in this way, the tumbler again coacts with the latchbolt and tumbler actuating means at points that are substantially aligned in a vertical direction. Of course, the tumbler and trigger bolt are not then in coacting relation, since the trigger bolt is effective only when the latchbolt is projected.
I have thus outlined rather broadly the more important "ice features of my invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that my contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are, of course, additional features of my invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject of the claims appended hereto. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception on which my disclosure is based may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures for carrying out the several purposes of my invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions as do not depart from the spirit and scope of my invention, in order to prevent the appropriation of my invention by those skilled in the art.
In the drawings:
Fig. l is a perspective View of my novel narrow stile lock.
Pig. 2 is a side view of my lock with a part of the lock case removed.
Fig. 3 is similar to Fig. 2, but With the bolt dogged in looking position and engaged with a strike.
Fig. 4 shows the key plug cam moving the deadlocking tumbler out of dogging position preparatory to retracting the bolt.
Fig. 5 shows the bolt retracted by the key plug cam and dogged in this position by the tumbler.
Pig. 6 shows the bolt retracted through engagement with the strike. 7
Fig. 7 is a detail view of my novel deadlocking tumbler.
Fig. 8 is an exploded View showing parts of my lock.
Pig. 9 shows my novel deadlocking tumbler utilized with a deadbolt.
Referring now more particularly to Fig. l of the drawings, i show my novel lock equipped with a rectangular case Eli having a front plate 11, and a side 12 that is removable for the purpose of assembling the lock mechanism. The particular construction of the lock case It) is not important to an understanding of my invention, but it should be observed that the case is quite short from front to back so that the lock can be mounted in a very narrow door stile. I further show the lock equipped with a bevelled latchbolt 13 and a trigger bolt 14 that slide between projected and retracted positions on the case. i shall describe the bolts 13, 14 in greater detail, but it will be best to state first that the latchbolt 13 and trigger bolt 14 coact with a strike in the usual way. Thus, upon closing of the door, the bevelled surface of the latchbolt 13, moves against the strike and this bolt together with trigger bolt 14 are depressed by the strike, as in Fig. 6 of the drawings. The latchbolt 13 then moves to projected position behind the strike while the strike holds trigger bolt 14 depressed, as will be understood by those skilled in the art, and as I show in Fig. 3, thereby effecting deadlocking of the latchbolt 13.
The latchbolt 13 and trigger bolt 14 are necessarily short, as may be clearly seen in the drawings, so that these bolts can move to retracted position in the narrow case 19. For guiding the bolt movement, a lug 15 on latchbolt 13, shown in detail in Fig. 8, moves in a slot 16 in the lock case 19, as may be seen in Fig. l. A lug 17 on trigger bolt 14 moves similarly in a slot 13. A coil spring 19 is engaged between latchbolt 13 and the back of case it? to press the bolt toward projected position, and
* a coil spring 219 similarly presses the trigger bolt 14. As
is usual in trigger bolt mechanisms, the trigger bolt 14 is retracted through a retracting movement of latchbolt 13, and for the particular purpose 1 form trigger bolt 14 with a spline 28, best seen in Fig. 8, that is engaged in a slot 29 in latchbolt 13. For retracting the latchbolt 13, I show the lock case 1% equipped at each side with a conventional .lock cylinder 30.having a rotating keyplug on which is acam 31. It isto be understood, however, that I may very well utilize a handle for rotating a cam 31 at one side of the lock. I form the upper portion of latchbolt 13, witha vertical slothaving opposed surfaces 32, 33 against which eithercam 31 i s adapted to move 7 whereby; to slide the latchbolt to projected or retracted positions; .1: y V.
Fordeadlocking the latchbolt 13 ofmy extremely novel I lock,-I utilize a tumbler 34, best seen in Fig.7, that moves relation to latchbolt lug through upward movement of tumbler 34, as may be seen in Fig. 3, when the latchbolt 13 isjn projected position; The tumbler 34 is then in dogging position, and deadlocks the'latchbolt 13. I shall describe; in detailthe manner in which the trigger bolt 14 controls this dogging action of tumbler 34, but it will be well first to describe the means I utilize for moving the tumbler,
' For the particular purpose, I mount/a cam 38 to slide in a vertical=groove 39 that is formed in one side of' -latchbolt'13, as well shown in Fig. 8. 'Sincethe latchbolt lug 15 is positioned actually in groove39, I form cam 38 witha slot 40 that enables the'cam to move relatively tothe lug.-Th rough -the particular arrangement, the
carn38 move s bodily with latchbolt 13 as the bolt moves between projected and retracted positions, but slides vertically relatively to the latchbolt. On'the upper portion of earn 38 is a horizontal arm 41lying intermediate the'surfaces 32, 33 of the latchbolt slot. Below the arm 41, I form the latchbolt 13 with a .bore 42, Fig. 8, in which l mount a coil spring 43a that acts against'arm 41 to press the earn 38 upwardly. Further, cam 38 has at it's outer side an integral lug 43, v
I particularly form the upper part of tumbler 34 with an inclined portion 44 (Fig. 7) under which cam lug 43'moves whenlatchbolt 13 moves'to projected position, as'in Fig. 3. The'upward spring pressure of the cam 3 8 thereby actslagain st tumbler 34 for moving the tumblerto dogging position, It should be observed that the V: 'inclined tumbler portion 44 is directly above the dead locking surface 37 on the tumbler so that the deadlocking and tumbler actuation take place at points that are substantially alignedvertically. This arrangement, to-
gether with'furtherfeatures that I shall describe, enables the tumbler to coact with the latchbolt 13 an'd sliding cam 38 in my extremely narrow lock. a
'. Referring now to Fig. 4, it will be seen that either keyplug cam 31, when rotating to retract thelatchbolt 13, will move against the arm 41 on sliding cam 38 and will thereby depressythis cam 38. further that'I form the tumbler'34 with a surface 47 It will be observed opposed to theinclined tumbler portion 44.- By depressj ing the sliding cam 38, the keyplug cam 31 moves the lug 43 against thetumbler surface 47, and thereby moves tumbler 34 downwardlyto release position, as clearly shown in Fig. 4, with the free slot 36 opposite latchbolt lug 15. This enables the keyplug cam 31 by continuing its rotation to move the latchbolt 13' to fully retracted position, as in Fig. 5. e a
we I prefer to utilizetlietumbler 34 also for doggingthe latchbolt in retracted position, as may be seen in. Fig. 5,.
For this purpose, I formthe rear end of the tumblerslot 36 with a notch. having a'rea rwardly disposed dogging s'urface45, as bestiseen in Fig.7." .I further form the upper. part of;tumbler 34 with a'portion 46 under which At f the cam lug 43 will engage,
in slot 18 in the side of the lock case, Fig. 1.
as in Fig. 5, bolt 13 is moved by one of the keyplug cams 31 to retracted position. Whenlug 43 is thus engaged, the keyplug cam 31 by its rotation moves away from sliding cam 38 and over an upper portion 33a on'latchbolt 13.
Through its engagement with latchbolt portion 33a, the
holds the latchbolt retracted. 'The keyplug cam 31 will naturally continue its rotation until it'reaches a neutral position, and'will not then be engaged'with the'latchbolt portion 33th. 'In opposed relation [to the tumbler portion 4d, 1 form the tumbler, 34-witha surface 47a that'is the counterpart of the surface 47. Therefore,
when-the keyplug cam '31 rotates clockwise in 'Fig.. 5, it
moves tumbler 34 downwardly out of dogging position, with further rotation of plug cam 31 projecting the latchbolt. f f 1 I shall now describe the novel arrangement whereby the trigger bolt 14 controls thetumbler 34. 7 It will be rememberedthat the lug 17. on the trigger bolt 14 moves When so moving, the lug 17 moves relatively to an opening 18a in tumbler34,jFig. 7. Directly belowthe deadlocking surface 37, 'Iform opening 18a of tumbler 34 with an inclined surface 46:1 with which" trigger. lug 17 coacts when the trigger 14 is in projected position, as is best shown in Fig.2, forholding tumbler 34 out of deadlock} ing relation to latchboltlug 15.: While I prefer to use the'rel'atively large-opening'18a to form the tumbler surface 46a, I do not wish to be limited to an opening since the surface 46:: may very'wellbejformed on a projecting'part of i the tumbler. cipally that the trigger bolt lug 17 moves directly against the inclined tumbler surface,46a', and coacts with this portion 46a, moreover, at apoint' that is substantially aligned in a vertical direction relatively to the deadlocking surface 37 and the .tumbler actuating portion 44. [It
will be realized, of course, that it is the spring pressure of trigger bolt 14 that acts against the inclined surface 0 46a through lug 17 for holding tumbler34'in a lower 'or release position, as in Fig. 2. To do this, the spring pressure of the'trigger bolt overcomes the pressure of the spring 43 that tends always to hold tumbler 34 in its deadlocking position of'Fig. 3.]. v f
'To enable the latchbolt spring. 19 to move the latchbolt'13 to projected position in the strike, 1' form the 7 upper tumbler portions 44, 46 in spaced relation to one another, as is clearly shown in the drawings. Thus, when the latchbolt 13'is' depressed by the strike A, 'as in Fig.
7 6, the spring pressure of the isliding' cam 38 causes the cam lug 43 to move above the, tumbler portion 46, so that this lug does not then move tumbler 34 to dogging position. In other words, the cam lug 43 coacts with the tumbler portion 46. only when the keyplug cam 31 retracts the latchbolt 13,"a's in Fig, 5, and tumbler 34 does not move to 'doggingposition' when the-strikedepresses the latchbolt 13.-
In the novel structurethat I have'thus far described, I utilize the tumbler 34 for controlling a latchbolt, but I can very well utilizethis tumbler for controlling a dead bolt 48,'as is' shown in Fig. 9. 'I show bolt 48 assembled with a spring 19 like that utilized to press latchbolt 13 to projected position,butl shall refer to'bolt 48 as a dead bolt since it enables me to achieve the type of action contributed by a conventional deadbolt. My lock when constructed with the dead bolt 48'has inmostrespects thesameistructure that I have already described. Of
course,-dead bolt 48 does not have a bevel as does'latch- V 7 bolt 13, and'the tumbler in this case will be actuated only by the lgeyplug cam 31. In other words, this'particular when the latch- It is'necessary to know printype of lock does not have a trigger bolt for controlling the tumbler I can, however, utilize the same tumbler 3d, and I can standardize to a very large extent the manufacture of the lock parts for both types of narrow stile lock.
To facilitate a full understanding of my invention, it will be best to review the operation of my novel lock with reference to the figures of the drawings.
In Fig. l, the latchbolt 13 and the trigger bolt 14 are in projected dsition, this being the normal position of both bolts w the door is open and the bolts are not dogged in retracted position' The lock parts are now in the posit' shown in Fig. 2. The spring pressure of trigger bolt i against the inclined surface 46a on tumbler through the trigger lug 17, thereby overcoming the spring pressure of the sliding cam- 38 and holding the tumbler in its lower or release position. In this position of the tumbler, or" course, the free slot 55 is aligned relatively to the latchbolt lug 15, so that the latchbolt 13 an move to retracted position.
In 3, latchbolt 33 is in projected position, as in Fig. 2, but t e door is closed and trigger bolt .14 is held de ressed by strike A so that its lug 17' no longer ed tumbler surface 46a. The slidcoacts witn th in ing cam 33 no acts through the engagement between its lug and the inclined tumbler portion id to move the tumbler -pwardly to dogging position, with the dogging surface 37 of the tumbler 34 in opposed relation to the latchbolt lug 'Ehis deadlocks the latchbolt I3.
In Fig. 4, we see what happensw..en one of the keyplug cams 31 rotates from the Fig. 3 position, preparatory to retracting the latchbolt 1 3. The keyplug cam 31 first moves against the top of the sliding cam 38 and depresses this cam. This causes the lug 43 on the sliding cam to coact with surface i? on tumbler 34, whereby to move the tumbler to its lower or release position, all as shown in rig. 4. The tumbler surface 37 has now moved away from latchbolt lug l5, and the free slot 35 is aligned relatively to lug 15. Upon continued rotation, keypli 1g cam 31 coacts with the vertical latchbolt surface 33 and moves latchbolt 13 to retracted position, as shown in Fig. 5.
During its rotation to the Fig. 5 position, keyplug cam 31 has held the sliding cam 38 depressed so that its lug 43 has moved under the portion do on tumbler 34,. Upon moving the latchbolt 13 to retracted position, the cam 31 by its rotation moves away from sliding cam 38, as shown in Fig. 5. Cam 31 simultaneously moves over the upper portion 33a on latchbolt 13, thus acting to hold the latchbolt in retracted position against the pressure of latehbolt spring 1?. This enables the sliding cam 38 to move upwardly by its spring pressure, while acting through its lug 43 to move tumbler .34 upwardly to dogging position, all as shown in Fig. 5, The tumbler surface 45 now coacts with latchbolt lug 15 to dog latchbolt 1'3 in retracted position. When rotating further to its normal neutral position, keyplug cam 31 will, of course, move away from the upper tumbler portion 330.
Fig. 6 shows what happens when the latchbolt 13 is depressed by the strike A during the closing movement or the door. The strike A has, of course, depressed the bolt 13 from the position shown in Fig. 2, with the latchbo-lt lug moving in the free slot 36 of. tumbler 3,4. Sihce movement talges place without rotation of either keyplug cam 31', the sliding cam 33 is not held depressed duthe bolt movement, and the spring pressure of sliding 33 causes this oath to move upwardly as the lug 35 leaves the inclined tumbler portion 44-. Thereby the lug 43 moves above the tumbler portion 46 and does coact with this portion as to move the tiLnbler upwardly. Since the tumbler now remains in the release position shown in Fig. 6, the latchbolt spring 1? can press the latchbolt 13 to projected position in the strike A, as in Fig. 3, when the door reaches closed position.
I believe that those skilled in the art now realize that I have contributed a novel lock structure of very considerable value. Through my invention, I am able to construct a lock that can be mounted on an ext emely narrow door stile, but that is equipped nevertheless with a deadlocking latchbolt controlled by a trigger bolt. Moreover, the deadlocking mechanism of my novel lock operates extremely well, whether controlling a latchbolt or a dead bolt. In fact, the novel features of my deadlocking mechanism, while particularly adapted for narrow stile locks, may be utilized to advantage on other locks. I believe, therefore, that the value of my invention will be fully understood.
