  • Patent number: 12234666
    Abstract: An adapter for either a handle set or a lever set door lever is equipped with a pair of springs to provide a pre-load on the spindle. The pre-load prevents sagging of the lever due to the large mass of the lever. A sleeve in the adapter is formed out of a compressible material that accepts the spindle in a press-fit configuration. This allows for greater manufacturing tolerances while still providing a solid and secure engagement between the spindle and the adapter. As a result, any free play in the lever is eliminated and the lever is maintained in a horizontal, home position when the lever is not in use. Following use through rotation of the lever, the springs promptly return the lever back to the home position while the sleeve prevents any slop or free-play in the lever's motion.

  • Publication number: 20240401370
    Abstract: A lockset assembly includes a first knob assembly having a projection with an enlarged head. A second knob assembly is configured to couple to the first knob assembly along a first axis. The second knob assembly including a rose liner with an opening is configured to receive the enlarged head of the projection in a bayonet connection. A retainer is coupled to the rose liner. The retainer defines a pocket shaped and sized to at least partially receive the projection, and the pocket is axially aligned with the opening. As the enlarged head is received within the opening, the retainer resiliently deflects to capture the projection within the pocket restricting disengagement of the enlarged head from the opening.
