Abstract: A cylindrical lockset (20) includes an inside subassembly (22) and an outside subassembly (24) which are assembled with a door (208). Each subassembly (22, 24) includes a liner (26, 36), a rose (28, 38) and a lever (30, 40). A chassis assembly (58) includes a pair of sleeves (66, 68), a pair of spring plates (146, 192), a pair of torsion springs (166, 194), a cap (172), a case (182) and a retractor (70) which is coupled to the latchbolt (46). Upon operation of either of the levers (30, 40) from a non-operated or home position, the latchbolt (46) is retracted and the associated one of the springs (166, 194) is tensioned so that, upon release of the levers, the springs return the levers to the home position.

Abstract: A cylinder lockset (30) includes a chassis assembly (72) with sleeves (80) and (81). A pair of liners (36) and (48) are mounted on sleeves (80) and (81), respectively, and facilitate attachment of chassis assembly (72) with a door (260). A pair of spring cassettes (38) are mounted on sleeves (80) and (82). A pair of levers (42) and (54) are mounted on the sleeves (80) and (82), respectively, and operate cassettes (38) directly for spring return of the levers upon release thereof. A pair of posts (388) and (390) are mounted on liner 48 and are formed with score locator lines (412), (414) and (416) to locate the liner relative to a housing (74) of assembly (72). Liner (36) is formed with four mounting holes (356), (358), (360) and (362) which facilitate use of the liner with either a lefthand or right-hand door mode.

Abstract: A cylindrical lock assembly (20) includes an inside subassembly (22) and an outside subassembly (24) which are assembled with a door (326). Each subassembly (22,24) includes a rose liner (26,38), a return spring cassette (28,40), a rose (30,42), a lever (32,46) and a lever insert (34,48). The inside subassembly (22) also includes a turn button (36) and the outside subassembly (24) includes a cylinder lock (44).Cylinder lock (44) includes a plug (114) within a shell (112). A rib (122) for supporting tumbler pins (428) is formed with the shell. An identifier actuator (456) is depressed by a tailpiece (116) when a turn button (36) is operated to lock the assembly (20). When the actuator (456) is depressed, an identifier pin (436) is moved within the plug (114) and extends partially from the front of the plug to signify that the assembly (20) has been locked from the inside.

Each subassembly (22,24) includes a rose liner (26,38), a return spring cassette (28,40), a rose (30,42), a lever (32,46) and a lever insert (34,48). The inside subassembly (22) also includes a turn button (36) and the outside subassembly (24) includes a cylinder lock (44).The lever inserts (34,48) are each formed from a plastic material with a first element (400) and a second element (414) which are integrally joined by a plastic ribbon (426). In one instance, the first and second elements (400,414) are separated from the ribbon (426) and are joined to form structure which fills voids in the exterior of the levers (32,46). The voids are necessary for the insertion of the cylinder lock (44) which contains, for example, six tumbler pins. In another instance, only the first element (400) is used where the cylinder lock (44) contains, for example, seven tumbler pins.

Abstract: An emergency exit device of the push bar type to control entry and exit of personnel, including a crossbar which may be pushed toward a door to actuate mechanisms which retract a latch bolt, and an alarm and key system for selective alarm actuation. The alarm and key system includes internal control mechanisms which are mounted in a tamper-proof housing, which may be accessed only by operating the push bar and actuating the alarm. A light emitting diode in the alarm assembly indicates alarm state, the presence of power, and a preset delay interval for alarm actuation. A variety of internal and external key operation configurations may be employed. A fastening arrangement for the exit device housing provides security against unauthorized manipulation of alarm components. Where mounting the alarm assembly within the exit device frame, an internal mounted guard member may include a protection flange to block access to the alarm.
