Abstract:
A patio door lock having a linkage for reciprocating movable bolts in the top and bottom of the door into and out of locked positions. A six bar linkage is provided to reciprocate bolt rods connected to the bolts by axially directed forces. A tension spring biases the bolt rods together, and stops are provided to limit an over-center motion of the linkage as assisted by the tension spring, one stop holding the linkage and bolt bars in the locked position.
