Abstract
An insulated door lock assembly including a base member with an aperture for the cylinder of a lock. The base member is configured to be mounted to a door around a hole for the door lock. The inner volume of the base member can be filled with an insulating material. A cover member can be coupled to the base member through a hinge joint. The cover member can be configured to switch between an open state and a closed state. A keyway or a thumb turn of the door lock can be accessible in the open state and the keyway or the thumb turn is covered by the cover member in the closed state. An O-ring can also be provided around a periphery of the base member for sealably engaging the cover member to the base member.
Claims19
An insulated door lock assembly comprising:
- a base member, the base member comprises a faceplate and a wall perpendicularly extending from a periphery of the faceplate, the faceplate has a central aperture, the wall has a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the base member is configured to couple to a door lock and the central aperture of the faceplate is dimensioned to receive a cylinder of the door lock, the base member has an open front along the proximal end of the wall of the base member;
- and
- a cover member coupled to the base member through a hinge joint, wherein the cover member is configured to cover the open front of the base member, wherein the base member and the cover member are filled with insulation material.
An insulated door lock assembly comprising:
- a base member configured to be coupled to a door lock, the base member has a central aperture configured to receive a cylinder of the door lock;
- an intermediate member swively coupled to the base member, the intermediate member configured to encase a door handle, the intermediate member coupled to the door handle, the intermediate member configured as a door handle that can be grasped to turn the door handle, the intermediate member filled with insulation material, the intermediate member has a front opening for gaining an access to an inner volume of the intermediate member;
- and
- a cover member coupled to the intermediate member through a hinge joint, wherein the cover member is configured to pivot between an open state and a closed state, the front opening of the intermediate member is covered by the cover member in the closed state and the front opening of the intermediate member is open in the open state of the cover member for gaining the access to the inner volume of the intermediate member.
An insulated door lock assembly comprising:
- a door lock;
- a base member that has a faceplate and a wall perpendicularly extending from a periphery of the faceplate, the faceplate has a central aperture, the wall has a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the base member is configured to couple to the door lock and the central aperture of the faceplate is dimensioned to receive a cylinder of the door lock, the base member has an open front along the proximal end of the wall of the base member;
- and
