Abstract

Abstract A lock in which a closure structure carries a cammable latch bolt which is spring urged toward a latching position. Stops are provided on the latch bolt and on a member carrying the latch bolt to normally prevent retracting movement of the latch bolt under inertia forces. The latch bolt is mounted for movement in a direction to displace the stops out of a registering position to permit camming of the latch bolt toward a releasing position during closing movement of the closing structure.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 163 words
In a lock structure: a first member, a second member, a latch member carried by said first member and having a latching relationship with respect to said second member, said first member being movable from a piston where said latch member is in its latching position to a second position where said latch member is in an unlatching position, said latch member and said second member having a camming relationship such that relative approaching movement of the two would cause the latch member to move in an unlatching direction, first stop means cooperable with said first member and having releasing and non-releasing positions and preventing movement of said first member relative to said second member except when said stop means is in its releasing position, second stop means cooperable with said latch member and having releasing and non-releasing positions and preventing unlatching movement of said latch member relative to said first member except when said second stop means is in its releasing position.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 163 words
In a lock structure: a first member, a second member, a latch member carried by said first member and having a latching relationship with respect to said second member, said first member being movable from a piston where said latch member is in its latching position to a second position where said latch member is in an unlatching position, said latch member and said second member having a camming relationship such that relative approaching movement of the two would cause the latch member to move in an unlatching direction, first stop means cooperable with said first member and having releasing and non-releasing positions and preventing movement of said first member relative to said second member except when said stop means is in its releasing position, second stop means cooperable with said latch member and having releasing and non-releasing positions and preventing unlatching movement of said latch member relative to said first member except when said second stop means is in its releasing position.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 69 words
A lock structure as recited in claim 1 in which said second stop means includes stop elements on said first member and on said latch member normally disposed in a substantially abutting relationship, and means mounting said latch member for tilting movement relative to said first member to dispose said stop elements in a non-abutting relationship for permitting unlatching movement of said latch member relative to said first member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
A lock structure as recited in claim 2 in which said second member provides an opening, a third member constituting a door for said opening and movably carrying said first member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 50 words
A lock structure as recited in claim 3 in which the first stop means includes a combination lock and said first member comprises a slide yoke cooperatively related to said combintion lock and movable in an unlatching direction only when the proper combination has been entered into said combination lock.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 33 words
A lock structure as recited in claim 2 in which spring means are provided for urging said latch member against tilting movement, second spring means urging said latch member to a locking position.
