Locking devices for doors of aircraft
The lock 30 comprises a housing 4, a drive member 6 pivotally mounted to the housing, a rotatable shaft 8 mounted to the drive member, an elongate member 32 fixed to and extending perpendicularly from the shaft, the elongate member being screwable in and out of a threaded hole in the shaft, a cross-bar 34 mounted perpendicularly to the elongate member and spaced from the shaft, and a latch 38 pivotally mounted to the housing, the cross-bar being located and rotatable in through holes 40 in the latch. The elongate member may be free to rotate about its longitudinal axis relative to the cross-bar. A collar 35 and nut 36 may prevent movement of the cross-bar along the elongate member. The latch may releasably attach to a catch on an aircraft. Also claimed is an aircraft door assembly comprising the lock, and a method of providing the lock.
