Figure- Gan end viewof ythe 'bolt-reoeiver. yTo enable others to understand the .use' and consti-notion of our invention, we will proceed to describe it. We'mak a cylindrical shell' or' cosefgs. 1, 2, and 3, with projections or arms d d, iig. 1, extehding a. propendietance from the s ih'ell, to provide a bearing i'orthe oa`m a, thp can; to be operated by means of a knobspindle.

It also'possesses the' advantage of 'being applied with gteater'faoility than ordinary doorV latches, requiring simply theboring of a 'hola of proper dimensions, without removing the wood about the spindle,

which o i'ton prevents the proper securing of the knob-plates for wantpf suioient thickness of wood to hold -the serews.V v f l The receiver, 'iigs. 4,; and 6, is made inthe same manner'. as the shell of the l'ntch, havingl a screw-thread on its youter periphery, td secnreit iirmlygin its-place, and the receiver-plate f being secured to lthe case by the dangling. theshell.
