Eccentric Drawbolt Stops Rattling of Door
A simple method of preventing a bolted door from rattling, by forcing it against the doorstop, or a weather strip, by means of an eccentric filed on the socket end of the bolt, is shown in the sketch. The bolt is fitted closely to the door and casing, and, when the bolt is turned so that the eccentric end is in action, the door is forced firmly against the doorstop.—C. H. Chambers, Schenectady, N.
