Abstract
A door lock having a recessed door handle at the outer side thereof, the thickness of the lock being maintained at a minimum so that it can be used on relatively thin doors (for example, the exterior door of a mobile home) by forming numerous components of the lock, including the bolt, as relatively thin flat metal stampings. The bolt is adapted to be retracted by actuating an exterior handle mounted within a recessed outside escutcheon plate or by an inside handle mounted on an inner escutcheon plate. The door lock includes a lock cylinder key operated from the exterior and, if desired, by a push button from the inside for enabling or preventing retraction of the lock bolt.

sum 5 or 5 fill/r184 zgml. 9- and? ATTORNEYS DOOR LOCK This invention relates to a door lock particularly adapted for use on the exterior door of a mobile home.
On mobile homes or similar vehicles safety requirements frequently demand that the door handles of exterior doors be recessed so that the handle does not project outwardly substantially beyond the outer face of the door. It thus becomes necessary to form the outer escutcheon plate of the lock with a recess for accommodating the handle. Since such doors are frequently relatively thin, it becomes necessary to design the lock itself so that the overall thickness thereof is at a minimum in order to prevent the lock from projecting substantially from the inner face of the door.
Accordingly it is an object of this invention to provide a door lock of the recessed handle type which is of minimum thickness so that it can be mounted on a relatively thin door.
A further object of the invention resides in the provision of a door lock of the type described which is formed with relatively thin, light weight components but which is, nevertheless, of very durable and strong construction.
Other objects and features of the present invention will become apparent from the accompanying description and drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is an elevational view of a door lock according to the present invention mounted in a door and as viewed from the inner face of the door.
FIG. 2 is an elevational view of the lock as viewed from the outer face of the door and with parts broken away.
FIG. 3 is a sectional view along line III-III in FIG. 2.
FIG. 4 is an end view of the lock from the bolt side thereof with portions of the door edge removed.
FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIG. 1 but with the inside cover plate and handle of the lock broken away to show the lock interior.
FIG. 6 is a sectional view along line VIVI in FIG. 2.
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary sectional view along line VIIVII in FIG. 5.
FIG. 8 is a sectional view along line VIII-VIII in FIG. 2.
FIG. 9 is a sectional view along line IX-IX in FIG. 4.
FIG. 10 is a fragmentary elevational view of the lock interior illustrating in broken lines retraction of the lock bolt by means of the inside handle.
FIG. 11 is a fragmentary elevational view of the lock interior showing the bolt retracted by operation of the outside handle.
The lock of the present invention includes an inside escutcheon plate 10 and an outside escutcheon plate l2 which are adapted to be positioned over an opening 14 formed through a door 16 adjacent the free edge thereof. The two plates 10 and 12 are adapted to be secured together against opposite faces of the door by means of screws 18 (FIG. 1) extending through inside plate 10 and threaded into bosses 20 (FIG. 3) formed on the inner face of outside plate 12. Plates l0 and 12 are preferably formed as metal die castings.
Outside plate 12 (as shown in FIGS. 2 and 8) is fashioned with a flat outer peripheral flange portion 22 and a central recessed portion 24. An outside operating handle 26 is pivotally supported on outer plate 12 by means of a pin 28 which extends vertically across recess 24 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 6. Handle 26 comprises a flat plate portion 30 having inwardly projecting lugs 32 adjacent the upper and lower edges thereof, the inner free ends of the lugs being fashioned as abutments 34 adapted to engage with ears 36 on a lock bolt 38. The bottom wall 40 of recess 24 is formed with spaced slots 42 through which the ears 36 of bolt 38 project. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, the flat plate portion 30 of handle 26 is substantially flush with the flat outer peripheral portion 22 of outside plate 12.
Referring to FIGS. 2 and 6 it will be seen that the bottom wall 40 of recess 24 has an outwardly raised central portion 80 in which a central stem 82 is rotatably supported. Stem 82 has a non-circular portion 84-on which a tumbler 86 and an inside handle 88 are fixedly secured. Handle 88 is journalled in a boss 90 on inside plate 10 and is retained thereon by a snap ring 92. Tumbler 86 is an elongate member (FIGS. 5, 10 and 11) which is disposed within the central opening 46 of the body portion 44 of bolt 38. The opposite ends of tumbler 86 are rounded as at 94. As shown in FIG. 5, spring 72 normally biases bolt 38 to the projected position wherein the edge 96 of bolt opening 46 abuts against one of the straight sides of tumbler 86. Thus, when handle 88 is rotated in either direction one of the rounded ends 94 of tumbler 86 engages edge 96 on bolt 38 to retract the bolt against the bias of spring 72.
There is also fixedly secured to the non-circular portion 84 of stem 82 a cam 98 (FIG. .5). Cam 98 has a pair of opposed cam lobes 100 which are interconnected by a recessed portion 102 adapted to be normally engaged by a pin 104. Pin 104 is mounted on a lock plate 106. Lock plate 106 is disposed between can 98 and tumbler 86. Lock plate 106 is provided with an elongated opening 108 through which stem 82 extends. A spacer bushing 110 around stem 82 engages the side edges of the elongated opening 108 in lock plate 106 and forms a guide for sliding movement of lock plate 106. Lock plate 106 is normally biased in one direction by a tension spring 112 connected to one end thereof as at 114. The opposite end of lock plate 106 is formed with an elongated slot 116 through which the cylindrical portion 118 of a latch stud 120 projects.
As indicated previously, outside handle 26 is adapted to retract the bolt when it is pivoted by reason of the interengagement of the abutments 34 with ears 36 (FIG. 8). However, if latch stud 120 is in the depressed condition, the enlarged portion 118 of the pin is engaged with the wider portion 126 of slot 124 and thus prevents substantial retraction of the bolt. Thus with the bolt in the locked condition outer handle 26 is ineffective to retract the bolt. However the bolt can be released from the outside of the door by inserting a key in barrel 134 and then rotating the barrel to cause pin 140 to engage the inclined cam surface 142 (FIG. 6) of sleeve 132 and thus shift latch stud 120 outwardly. Likewise with the door lock in the unlocked position a key may be inserted in barrel 134 and rotated to cause pin 140 to engage the inclined surface 144 of slot 138 and thus shift latch stud 120 to the retracted locked position shown in FIG. 6.
