DOQRwSEGURER.
Patented May 16, 1876.
HENRY W. ROSS, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
. l MPRO VEMENT IN DOOR-=SECURERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 1177A28, dated May 16, 1876; application filed April 10, 1876.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY W. Ross, of the city and State of New York, have invented an Improvement in Portable Fastening-s for Doors, of which the following is a specification:
A fastening has been made with aplate to pass in between the door and'the jamb, such plate having spikes to penetrate the woodwork, and to this plate there has been connected a slotted plate, that is turned transversely to pass across at the edges of the door and jamb, to hold the former so that it cannot be opened.
My invention is for strengthening the fastening without increasing its weight, and for rendering it more compact when folded. I combine with the fastening-plate and spikes a transverse wedge, having a flanged face, and there are horns upon the fastening-plate, whereby the wedge is retained, so that,although the parts fold together, something like a knife-blade closing into the handle, still the wedge can he slipped endwise at the proper time to retain the door, or withdrawn, and then swung around upon the fastening-plate and spikcs, so as to occupy but little space.
In the drawing, Figure l is a side view of the fastening as folded for transportation, and Fig. 2 is an edge view of the same. Fig. 3 represents the fastening as being applied to a door, and Fig. 4 shows the same as in position for securing the door.
The fastening-plate a is provided with the prongs or spikes b, that are forced into the wood of the door-jamb by the act of shutting the door, as indicated in Fig. 3. This plate is slotted longitudinally, and has a cross-piece or pivot, 0, near one end, and horns d projecting at that end. The wedge c is made with flanges 11, forming the face that bears against the door and jamb the wedge is. moved to the position (11 L 4. The end o of the wedge is a thumb-piece, by which the wedge is'moved endwise in pressing it along between the door It and the cross-piece or .pivot c.
It the parts thus far described were used alone, the wedge could become separated from the fastening-plate, and would not always be in position for use.
I make the end 3 of the wedge rounding and apply a hook, as at 4. This enables me to use the end 3 of the wedge as a gage to determine the position of the fastening-plate tothe edge of the doonjamb, as seen in Fig. 3. The flanged face of the wedge at this time is in the wider part 6 of the slot; hence there cannot be sufficient end movement given to the wedge to allow the hook 4 to escape from a, and this wide part 6 of the slot in a allows for the end movement of the wedge in fastening the door; but it prevents the wider end of the wedge and the thumb-piece escaping from the plate a, when the fastening is not up on the door.
When the wedge is swung over upon the fastening-plate a to close the parts together, as in Fig. l, the wedge portion itself passes in between the spikes b,- bnt the parts might separate at this time were it not for the horns d, that close over the edge of the wedge-flange 'i sufliciently to retain the same. as seen in Fig. 2. When the wedge is being swung upon the cross-piece c as a pivot from the position of Fig. l to that of Fig. 3, the flange 'i of the wedge passes these inward horns (Land hence such flange. is notched, as at 8.
The parts of this fastening are cast and finished separately. They may be put together before the horns d are bent toward each other, or .while the plate a is ina bent condition, with its slot wide enough to allow the wed ge-flangc to be inserted.
I do not claim a plate with spikes passing in between the door and door-jamb, with a transversewedge or key, as in Patent No. 52.050; but
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The portable door-lastening, made with the horns (Z and widened slot 6 in and upon the plate a, and the hook 4 and flange z', notched at 8 upon the wedge e, rounded at 3, and serving as a gage, all substantially as set forth.
Signed by me this 4th day of April, 1876.
