Patent number: 9920562Abstract: A door closing device for installation between a door and a door jamb includes a closer rod having an end configured to be fixed to the door jamb, the closer rod being movable between a withdrawn position in which the door is closed and an extended position in which the door is opened. The device also has a hold-open mechanism that includes a driver fixed to the closer rod and movable between a release position that permits movement of the closer rod, and a hold position that holds the closer rod in the extended position, and a resilient retainer configured to capture the driver in the hold position. The driver is separated from the retainer by a disengagement force applied to the retainer.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2015Date of Patent: March 20, 2018Assignee: HAMPTON PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventor: Lucas Jeffrey Stanton

Publication number: 20180058117Abstract: A handle set (30) comprises an elongated handle (40) that is attached to a corresponding door (32) at two spaced apart locations. A knob (42) is disposed on the door (32) opposite the handle (40). A retractor assembly (80) is interposed between the handle (40) and the knob (42). A handle spindle (62) extends from the handle (40), and a knob spindle (60) extends from the knob (42). The handle and knob spindle overlap one another, and are configured to move axially with one another. However, the knob spindle (60) can be rotated relative to the handle spindle (62). The spindles are configured to interact with the retractor assembly (80) so that pushing the handle (40) or pulling the knob (42) actuates the retractor to withdraw the latch bolt (50), or rotating the knob (42) actuates the retractor to withdraw the latch bolt (50).Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2014Publication date: March 1, 2018Applicant: Hampton Products International CorporationInventors: Xinmin OU, Duane LUKE, Jon Fong QUAN, Steven T.

Publication number: 20180058096Abstract: A lockset (10) is actuable by pivoting a lever (14) about a longitudinal axis of the lockset (10) by rotating the lever (14) and by pushing or pulling on the lever (14). An actuator linked to the lever extends into a retractor assembly (33) of the lockset and is configured to actuate a retractor (40) to retract a latch bolt (550) in order to enable a corresponding door (22) to be opened. The latch bolt (550) has a blocking surface (560) that is configured to engage an edge of a door strike plate (45) in order to prevent the door (22) from opening. The blocking surface (560) is inclined relative to an axis of the latch bolt (550).Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2014Publication date: March 1, 2018Applicant: Hampton Products International CorporationInventors: Xinmin OU, Jon Fong QUAN, Guohua LIU, Jian WEN

Publication number: 20170284124Abstract: A lockset (10) is actuable by pivoting a lever (14,16) about a longitudinal axis of the lockset (10) by rotating the lever (14,16) and by pivoting the lever (14,16) about an axis transverse to the lockset axis, such as by pushing or pulling. The lockset (10) includes an inside lever (14) and an outside lever (16), each associated with an independent mechanism, each of which can independently actuate the lockset (10). A keyed locking cylinder (250) is disposed axially in the outside lever (16) and pivots with the outside lever (16). The keyed lock cylinder (250) has an opening that pivotably engages an actuator (260). The actuator (260) extends into a retractor assembly (33) of the lockset (10) and is configured to perform an unlocking or locking function when actuated.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2014Publication date: October 5, 2017Applicant: HAMPTON PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Xinmin Ou, Steven T.

Publication number: 20170013695Abstract: A lighting system includes a control unit for controlling brightness level of a light source based on a photosensor output signal and a motion sensor output signal. The control unit may increase the brightness level of the light source as ambient light level decreases, or decreases the brightness level as the ambient light level increases. The control unit may also increase the brightness level to a maximum brightness level when motion is detected.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2016Publication date: January 12, 2017Applicant: HAMPTON PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Kim Kelley, Ben Huang

Publication number: 20160356060Abstract: A lockset is actuable by pivoting a handle about a longitudinal axis of the lockset by rotating the handle and by pivoting the handle about an axis transverse to the lockset axis, such as by pushing or pulling. The lockset includes an inside handle and an outside handle, each associated with an independent mechanism, each of which can independently actuate the lockset. A locking mechanism prevents actuation of a first one of the independent handle mechanisms without affecting operation of the other handle mechanism. Upon actuation of the other handle mechanism, a retractor engages a surface of the locking mechanism and removes it from engagement with the first locking mechanism. An adjustment ring has a first configuration that centers the lockset in a door having a first standard thickness and a second configuration that centers the lockset in a door having a second standard thickness.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2016Publication date: December 8, 2016Applicant: Hampton Products International CorporationInventors: Xin Ben Ou, Xin Min Ou, Han Gui Xiao, Zhi Man Yuan, Shi Hao Chen, Guo Hua Liu

Publication number: 20160312509Abstract: A door closer assembly configured for replacing a previous door closer assembly and installing using pre-existing mounting holes. The door closer assembly includes a closer having a closer housing and a pair of universal mounting brackets. The closer housing has an abutment surface along an axis of the closer. Each universal mounting brackets has mounting openings aligning with the pre-existing mounting holes. The closer is secured to the universal mounting brackets.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 7, 2016Publication date: October 27, 2016Applicant: HAMPTON PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Kari Jo Hoffman, Michael J.

Publication number: 20160290026Abstract: A method of installing a replacement door closer assembly including a closer mechanism includes the steps of: (a) removing a previous door closer assembly from a mounting surface of a door or a door jamb; (b) fixing a first mounting bracket on the mounting surface through a first pre-existing mounting hole; (c) extending the closer mechanism of the replacement door closer assembly through the first mounting bracket while aligning a second mounting bracket with at least a second pre-existing mounting hole in the mounting surface; (d) sliding the closer mechanism back toward the first mounting bracket so that the second mounting bracket can be fixed to the mounting surface through the second pre-existing mounting hole; and (e) positioning and securing the closer mechanism between the first and second mounting brackets.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 17, 2016Publication date: October 6, 2016Applicant: HAMPTON PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Kari Jo Hoffman, Michael J.

Patent number: 9371671Abstract: A lockset has an actuator unit, a mounting unit and a latch retractor mechanism. The mounting unit attaches the lockset to a door and supports the actuator unit and latch retractor mechanism. The actuator unit includes inside and outside door knobs and a cam mechanism that move together within the mounting unit. During rotational movement, a first cam of the cam mechanism engages the latch retractor mechanism to retract the latch. The actuator is axially movable along an axis of the actuator unit when one of the knobs is pushed or pulled. During axial movement, a second cam of the cam mechanism engages the latch retractor mechanism to retract the latch. A locking mechanism is selectively actuable to act between the actuator unit and the mounting unit to prevent both rotational and axial movement of the actuator unit relative to the mounting unit, thereby locking the lockset.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2015Date of Patent: June 21, 2016Assignee: HAMPTON PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventor: Steven T.
