I This invention relates generally to striker plates and refers more particularly tothose designed for use in connection with the movable bolts of vehicle door locks and-latches. b i Oneof the essential objects of the: invention is to provide a plurality of striker plates that are preferably arranged in tandem and are ada ted to be alternately engaged by the bolt of t elock for holding the'door in either a to partially closed position or in a. fully closed position with respect toasuitable door-jamb. Another object is to provide a striker plate of this type that may bereadily adjusted without interfering with the usual trimming i material of the vehicle body for taking up wear and preventing rattling. a A further object is to provide simple and effective means for adjusting the adjustable striker plate. I I
Still'anotherobject is to provide'strong and durablestriker plates that are simple in construction and can be manufactured at a comparatively low cost. 1' lNith the above and other objects in View the invention consists of certain novel featur'es of construction, combinations and arran ements of parts aswill more fully be descri ed and particularly pointed outin the appended claims. a
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a fragmentary side elevation of a doorj amb with striker plates embodying my inventionattached thereto. Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view ,5 the line 22 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 isa top plan view of the retainer plate. i 1 I A v i 1 Figure 4: is a side elevation of the retainer plate shown in Figure 3. 4.0 Figure 5 is a top plan view of the inner adjustable striker plate.
Figure 6 is a longitudinal sectional taken on the line 66 of Figure 5. j i I Figure 7 is a top plan view of theouter 5 striker plate. 1
Referring now like reference characters designate correspending parts throughout the several views. the numeral 1 designates a door jamb, prefer- M) ably of a vehicle body. This jamb may be formed of'any suitable material and may be any shape desired, however itis preferably taken on View I formed of two sheet metal stampings an d 3. respectively. As shown, the stamping 3 is welded together.
tothe drawings; in which Application for reissue preferably channelshaped in cross-section and is provided at its'forward edge with a laterally extending flange 1, while the stamping 2 is also preferably channel shaped in cross section and has one flange 5 thereof overlapping the lateral flange 4 of the stamping 3. These overlapping flanges may be secured together by any suitable means but are preferably In order that a swinging door 6 may be held partially closed or fully closed with respect to the door jamb 1. I preferably provide two striker plates 7 and 8 respectively that are arranged in tandem upon the door jamb 1 and are adapted tobe engaged by the movable bolt 9 of a lock (not shown) carried by the door 6. 1
The striker plate 7 is preferably formed of sheet metal and is preferably permanently secured to the jamb section 2 while the'striker plate 8 is also preferably formed of sheet metal but is adjustable transversely of the section 3 for taking up wear-and preventing the bolt 9 from rattling. As shown, the striker plate 7 is wedge-shaped in form and is provided at its opposite sides with the outwardly-extending attaching ears 10 which are preferably riveted to the flange 5 of the jamb section 2. 5 '7 Thev striker plate 8 is" also" preferably wedge-shaped in form but is movable longitudinally of an elongated opening 10 that extends transversely of the jamb section '3 from the inner edge of the. lateral flange "4 to a point adj acent to therea-r flange 11. For supporting the striker plate 8 in the opening 10, I preferably provide a retainer plate'12 that bridges the opening 10" and is perinanently secured to section 3. As shown, this retainer plate 12 is preferably riveted at its forward end to the lateral flange 4: of the section 3 and is provided at its rear end with a lateral flange 15 that is secured to'the rear flange 11 of the section 3. v In order that the inner striker plate 8 may be readily adjusted transversely of the-jamb 1 without interfering with the usual triniming material, (not shown) of the vehicle body the inclined wall 14 of the. striker :plate 8 is preferably provided with alongitudi nally extending depressed portion 15 having an elongated slot 16 for receiving a suitable headed element such as a screw 17 that from the retainer plate12. shown, the .base 19 of the depressed portion is preferably disposed at an angle with respect tothe retainer plate 12, but is preferably substantially parallel to the tongue 18. Thus, when the screw 17 is rotated inwardly, the head thereof will bear against the inclined base 19 of the depression 15 and will adjust the striker plate 8 at the rear. However, the base 19 of the depression 15 is 'located a suflicient distance from the inclined tainer plate. 12 in the rear of the tongue'18.
In use, whenit is desired to adj ust'the striker plate 8 to therear, the screw 24 is loosened, whereby the screw 17 may be adjusted inwardly of the tongue 18 to effect the desired adjustment ofthe striker plate 8. The screw 24 is then adjusted inwardly of the retainer plate 12' forholding the" striker plate 8 in adjusted position. lVhenit is desired to adjust the striker plate 8 forwardly both screws 17 and 22 are loosened and thestriker plate 8 is then moved by hand tot-he desired adjusted position, whereupon both screws 24 and 17 are adjusted inwardly, preferably in the order named, to'hold the'striker plate 8 in position. Thus the striker plate 8 may be easily adjusted without affecting any of the other parts for taking up wear and preventing the bolt 9 from rattling.
\Vhile it is believed that from the foregoing description the nature and advantages of the invention will be readily apparent, I desire to have it understood that I do not limit it for holding said striker plate in. adjusted p0 when desired as fall 1 myself to what is herein shown and described,
