Door plate system, kit, and method
11549281 · 2023-01-10 ·

A door plate has a main body with a front side, a rear side, a top side, a bottom side, a first adjacent side, and a second adjacent side. The main body includes a handle aperture and fastener apertures. The handle aperture is configured to receive a door handle of the door. The handle aperture is formed through the main body from the front side to the rear side of the main body. Each of the plurality of fasteners is formed through the main body from the front side to the rear side. The main body has a depth defined by a maximum distance between the front side and the rear side of the main body at the second adjacent side of the main body. The depth of the main body militates against a prying of the door with a crowbar where the main body is installed on the door.

Refrigerator

Provided is a refrigerator having only a second door opened/closed or having both of a first door and a second door opened/closed using one handing by allowing a latch device to fix the second door to the first door or release the second door from being fixed to the first door. The refrigerator includes a main body having a storage compartment, a first door that is rotatably disposed in front of the main body and has an opening formed therein, a second door that is rotatably disposed in front of the first door to open/close the opening, a handle coupled to a front side of the second door to open/close the first door and the second door, and a latch device allowing the second door to be fixed and released to/from the first door.

Latch apparatus with independent identical opposing latches

The present latch apparatus includes a swinging piece having first and second independent latches or sliders sliding in first and second slots. The first and second sliders slide independently of each other. The first and second sliders engage an undersurface of an extension of a first object such as a gate. If either the first or second slider is engaged on the undersurface, the swinging piece is locked and is not swingable such that the first object such as the gate cannot itself swing away from a second object such as a barrier section. Only when each of the first and second sliders has been slid beyond the undersurface can the swinging piece swing to permit the first object such as the gate to be released and thus swingable itself relative to the second object such as the barrier section.

Interconnected door lock

An interconnection assembly includes a chassis, and cam plates that are rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a plurality of rotational axises. An upper cam plate is operatively coupled to a deadbolt. The upper cam plate has a cam surface. A lower cam plate is rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a second rotational axis. The lower cam plate is operatively coupled to an interior latch bolt handle. The lower cam plate has a cam slot. A linkage bar is rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a pivot axis. The linkage bar has a first linkage portion having a first cam follower configured to operatively engage the cam surface of the upper cam plate and has a second linkage portion having a second cam follower operatively received in the cam slot of the lower cam plate.

Lockable bolt device
11519197 · 2022-12-06 ·

A lockable bolt device for an interior of a door. The lockable bolt device includes a door attachment plate having a horizontal aperture therethrough, configured to securely attach to the door, and a jamb attachment plate having two horizontal apertures therethrough, configured to securely attach to a door jamb. The jamb attachment plate also includes a vertical aperture therethrough, such that the vertical aperture is configured to removably accept an angled bolt therethrough for storage of the angled bolt when the lockable bolt device is in an unlocked configuration. When the door is in a closed position and the horizontal apertures are aligned, the two plates are configured to accept the angled bolt through the horizontal apertures to secure the door in the closed position. The lockable bolt device is useful to prevent an individual from passing through the door from an exterior of the door.

HATCH LOCKING DEVICE, AND AIRCRAFT WITH HATCH LOCKING DEVICE
