Abstract:
The locking bar assembly of the present invention is adapted to lock horizontally slidable, overlapping window doors, such as patio doors, in closed position. One end of a locking bar is pivoted to a bracket, or pivotal member, for movement in between a stored vertical position and a horizontal locking position. A clasping member, carried by the bracket, resiliently retains the locking bar either in the vertical position, or against upward pivoting from its horizontal position. The bracket is so constructed that it can be secured to the sash or to the handle flange of one door when the two doors can be opened, or to the door opening frame when only one door can be opened.
Abstract:
The manually releasable stop device permits unimpeded swinging of the window within a limited angle of rotation between the closed and partially open window. After releasing the stop device further swinging of the window is permitted beyond the limited angle of rotation. The stop device comprises two cooperating stop members (25, 26) which are fastened to respective support members (14, 18) in the window hinge which are pivotable relative to each other. A first stop member is constituted by a stop element (26) fixedly fastened to the one support member (14), and the second stop member is constituted by a self-locking catch element (25) fastened to the other support member (18). The catch element cooperates with a positive control mechanism (26, 32, 37, 39) in the pivotal region of the window within the limited angle of rotation. In the pivotal region the positive control mechanism is adapted to forcibly control the catch element (25) to engage with the fixedly fastened locking element (26), while the catch element in the pivotal region is designed for limited movement of the catch element relative to the fixed locking element.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a device for locking a swiveling window in a closed or partially open position. The device includes a rod (4) articulated (i) so as to slide within a handle or control lever (1) mounted so as to pivot on a rest (2), and (ii) to a yoke (6) mounted with a certain degree of rotation in a base (8) affixed to the window (9), and a mechanism for locking/unlocking the lever in the closed or partially open positions of window (9).

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an extension mechanism adapted to be interposed between the fixed strike plate of an automobile trunk and the lock elements of the trunk lid. The device enables the trunk lid to be locked at any of a series of partially ajar positions whereby cargoes of a variety of sizes may be readily transported with safety and security.
Abstract:
An automobile trunk lid holder comprising a rod with an engagement means at each end capable of gripping in opposing directions and an offset intermediate therebetween, wherein the offset means allows one of the engagement means to engage the trunk lid with a gripping action and further allows the other engagement means to engage the trunk lid frame with a gripping action in a direction generally opposite to that of the first engagement means.
Abstract:
A latching arrangement for complemental top and bottom door panels on a cab of a tractor includes a handle which is pivotally mounted to the top door panel between operative and inoperative positions. Biasing means in the form of a coil spring mounted between the handle member and the door normally urges the member to its inoperative position. An element connected to the lower door panel and defining a recess to receive the handle member operates to position the upper door in angular relationship to the complemental lower door member to ventilate the cab. A peripheral portion of the handle which is received in the connecting element is disposed at an angle relative to the axis about which the handle pivots to thereby define the angle at which the complemental door panels are held apart.
Abstract:
A telescopic support that is mounted to the inside surface of the lid of an automobile trunk and that may be extended to the floor of the trunk to maintain the trunk lid in an open position while carrying oversize objects in the trunk.
Abstract:
A device comprising a securing means and a latching means for latching a door in a pre-determined position of rotation relative to a frame associated with said door when rotating the door in one direction. Means is securely attached to the door and arranged to coact with the door at its upper horizontal edge surface. The latching means extends from the securing means in the form of a horizontally or substantially horizontally extending portion. The securing means and the latching means are pivotally arranged relative to each other and exhibit locking means, which are adapted to co-act with each other so that the latching means is able to adopt one of two position of rotation relative to the securing means. A first position of rotation in which closing of the door 1 is prevented and a second position of rotation in which the door is free to close. The securing means and the latching means are formed integrally of a plastics material. The rotation of the latching means is effected via a thin portion formed between the latching means and the securing means.
Abstract:
A safety bar for holding a closure such as a door in its locked position or in a partially opened position to enhance security. A bar for holding the closure in either position is provided together with keepers cooperating with the bar to perform the holding function.
Abstract:
An electrically actuated door holder and release for the multipoint holding of a pivoted door throughout a range of door open angles, and for the release of a held door either electrically or in response to manual override. The door holder comprises a channel which pivotally supports through linkages an elongated hold-open bar. An elongated friction strip is carried by the hold-open bar. The hold-open bar is normally held in hold-open position under tension by an armature spring coupled to the holdopen bar. The channel is formed with a slot which guides a slide block which moves linearly along the length of the hold-open bar in response to changes in the angle of door opening. The slide block carries a pivotally supported hold-open cam which engages the friction strip to effect door hold open in the event the armature linkage is further placed under tension by energization of an electromagnet. Upon deenergization of the electromagnet, or alternatively upon the application of a manual override door closing force, the hold-open bar is pivoted away from the slide block and the friction strip engaging cam and the door is released.
