Sliding panel construction

A latching mechanism

AUTO LATCH FOR WINDOW SASH

A latch for a window sash includes a fixed plate and a latch head slidably coupled to the fixed plate. The latch head is symmetrically spring loaded to minimize rotation when the latch head translates. When the latch head retracts toward the fixed plates, hooks from the latch head engage notches on the fixed plate to lock the latch head in a retracted position. This releases the latch head from a strike so the window sash can be opened. The latch further includes a plunger centrally received in the fixed plate and the latch head. When the plunger retracts toward the fixed plate, sloped shoulders from the plunger disengages the hooks of the latch head from the notches on the fixed plate. This releases the latch head to engage the strike so the window sash is locked.

LOCKING MECHANISM FOR DOUBLE-SLIDING SASHES

A locking mechanism for double-sliding sashes is provided to fasten inside and outside sashes and lock the fastened sashes to a window frame by an single operation using a handle. The mechanism comprises a crescent sash fastener composed of a fastening member and a receptacle member. The receptacle member is revolvable by being pushed by a projection of the fastening member which is revolved by a handle to fasten them together. The revolving movement of the receptacle member is converted into a vertical movement of a driving rod provided in a meeting stile of the outside sash. The vertical movement of the driving rod rotates locking levers which are linked to the rod at the upper and lower ends thereof to push the window frame in a firmly secured condition.

DEVICE FOR LOCKING A SLIDING DOOR OF A SHOWCASE HAVING A FRAME CONSTRUCTION

Sliding doors for showcases are normally locked by safety locks. The installation of these doors must, however, be very precise when play of the sliding door, in rest position, is to be avoided. By the new device a safe locking of a showcase is also achieved without having to pay attention to an especially precise installation. The sliding door is held in the closed position and rest position, respectively, by permanent magnets provided in the showcase, the magnetic force of which can be neutralized by an electric coil and direct current flowing therethrough. As the installation of the permanent magnets must not be so precise, such a showcase can be assembled outside a workshop, for instance on site. Also, the safe closure of sliding doors can be achieved even with showcases where known locking means are at positions difficult to reach.

INTERNAL SLIDING CLOSURE LOCK

A sliding closure (door or window) lock has a rectangular tubular enclosure which has a plunger mounted on am interior camshaft. Rotation of the camshaft by a handle or lever moves the plunger between an extended position, where its serrated outer end frictionally engages an interior surface of the channel for the closure, and a retracted position without frictional engagement. The enclosure has an adjacent apertured flange to secure it to an inner surface of the closure. The device may be made of two plates in which case one plate forms two walls of the enclosure and the flange, and the other the other two walls and a thickness of the flange. A stub flange also with apertures on remote corner of the enclosure allows the plates to be fastened at the other side of the enclosure.
