Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally to door locks, and more particularly relates to a low profile lock actuating device for use with sliding doors.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Sliding doors, such as patio doors, commonly utilize locking devices on the door locking-side stile which engage into keepers mounted on the side jamb frame to provide environmental control and security and to prevent unintentional opening of the doors. Projecting handles and interior thumb-turns and exterior key cylinders are commonly used devices to actuate the locks to the locked and unlocked condition and are also used as a hand-grip to be able to slide the door open or closed. There is often a need for sliding patio doors to have low or recessed profile lock actuators and hand-grips whenever separate door panels need to slide freely by other sliding or stationary panels, or into a wall side pocket, to avoid hitting opposing door panels or wall openings with the lock actuators and hand-grips to prevent prematurely stopping or damage of both the hardware and door panels. Low profile lock actuator and hand-grip devices are also desirable to prevent catching on draperies or other door treatments when opened, while also being aesthetically pleasing.


A number of flush mount lock actuation and hand-grip devices with either low profile or recessed features are currently on the market which address this need, but such products are limited to interfacing with just a few mating lock styles, and/or are difficult to assemble to the mating lock. What is needed is a low profile lock actuator and hand-grip system that interfaces with a wide variety of single point and multi-point locks in the industry and which is also easy to assemble and operate.

One or more spacers 160 may be provided between slide arm 140 and escutcheon 104. Each of retainers 156, 158 secure slide arm 140 to escutcheon 104 and also act as guide pins to direct, constrain and/or restrict movement of slide arm 140 by interaction with first portions 144 and 150 of first channel 142 and second channel 148, respectively, during sliding translation of slide arm 140. Similarly, slide arm 140 is guided and/or constrained by interaction between second portion 146 and locating protrusion 124 of key drive disk 120, and by second portion 152 and locating protrusion 114 of lock actuator drive disk 110. One or more spacers 160 may be included in conjunction with retainers 156, 158. Fastener 162 secures thumb slide assembly 130 to slide arm 140. In alternate arrangements (not depicted), it will be appreciated that slide arm 140 could be replaced by a linkage or other mechanism which couples lock actuator drive disk 110 and key drive disk 120.


As depicted in FIGS. 12A-12B, escutcheon 104 of interior lock actuator assembly 102 may be formed without any integrated handle or grip element in some embodiments.


Another embodiment of an interior lock actuator assembly 102 is depicted in FIGS. 13-14. Interior lock actuator assembly 102 generally includes a pivotable arm 172 secured to slide arm 140 with fastener 173, an offset lock actuator 174 having a drive tab portion 176, the offset lock actuator 174 coupled to arm 172 via pivot pin 178. Arm 172 is used in place of lock actuator drive disk 110 relative to the embodiment of FIGS. 1-12B, but other components of lock actuating assembly 102 remain unchanged.


Referring now to FIGS. 15-16, exterior lock actuator assembly 180 generally includes exterior escutcheon 182 having a recessed handle or grip feature 184 which may be a separate component coupleable to escutcheon 182, or integrated with or otherwise formed as a part of escutcheon 182. Exterior lock actuator assembly 180 further includes key cylinder 186 (optional), secured to back side 189 with a strap 188 and one or more fasteners 188a. A key cylinder drive tail 190 is received in center aperture 126 of key drive disk 120.


Another embodiment of an exterior lock actuator assembly is depicted in FIGS. 17A-B. Exterior lock actuator assembly 195 is similar to the exterior lock actuator assembly 180 depicted in FIGS. 15 and 16, but lacks an integrated handle or grip element. In all other aspects, exterior lock actuator assembly 195 is identical to exterior lock actuator assembly 180.


Referring now to FIGS. 18A-B, standalone handle portions 230, 234, are depicted, which can be used in conjunction with the handle-less lock actuator embodiments of FIGS. 12A-B or FIGS. 17A-B. The handle portions 230 of FIG. 18A feature a shallow handle recess 107, while the handles 234 of FIG. 18B feature a deeper handle recess 107.


In use, lock actuating assembly 100 can be operated from an interior side or an exterior side. To unlock from the interior side, a user moves thumb slide assembly 130 from the locked position depicted in FIG. 2B downward to the unlocked position depicted in FIG. 2A. As thumb slide assembly 130 is directly coupled to slide arm 140, such translational movement of thumb slide assembly 130 causes a corresponding downward translation of slide arm 140. The motion of slide arm 140 is constrained by channels 142 and 148 interacting with retaining members 156, 158 and center hub protrusions 114, 124. As slide arm 140 is moved by thumb slide assembly 130, lock actuator drive disk 110 is rotated by way of drive protrusion 112 of lock actuator drive disk 110 being received in corresponding aperture 154 of slide arm 140. As lock actuator drive disk 110 rotates, drive tail 118 operates lock assembly 210 by way of lock drive recess 212, as depicted in FIGS. 1B and 1D, so as to retract hooks 214 and thereby unlock lock assembly 210. The operation is reversed in order to lock the lock assembly 210, with a user moving thumb slide 130 from the unlocked position depicted in FIG. 2A upward to the locked position depicted in FIG. 2B, thereby extending hooks 214.


To operate the lock assembly 210 from the exterior side, a user turns key 187 in key cylinder 186, which causes key drive disk 120 to rotate via key drive tail 190. As key drive disk 120 rotates, slide arm 140 is translated by way of the communication between drive protrusion 122 of key drive disk 120 and corresponding aperture 154 defined in slide arm 140, which causes a corresponding rotation of lock actuator drive disk 110 by way of the communication between drive protrusion 112 of lock actuator drive disk 110 and the corresponding aperture 154 defined in slide arm 140. As lock actuator drive disk 110 rotates, drive tail 118 operates lock assembly 210 by way of lock drive recess 212, as best depicted in FIGS. 1B and 1D. Rotating key 187 in a first direction locks the assembly 210, while rotating key 187 in the opposite direction unlocks the assembly 210.


In the embodiments depicted herein, the non-limiting materials of construction for lock actuating assembly 100 include plastic, composite (e.g., fiberglass, plastic-impregnated wood), metal or other materials or combinations thereof known to the artisan. The lock actuating assembly 100 is suitable for use with doors constructed from vinyl plastic, aluminum, wood, composite, or other door materials.
