Pin aligning system for doors and door mounted devices

Aligning apparatus aligning a door having flat outer and inner surfaces extending between side edge surfaces relative to a door frame having a vertical surface with a horizontal width extending normal to the outer and inner surfaces of the door said door being movable from and to an open position with respect to the door frame and from and to a closed position with respect to the door frame,

• said aligning apparatus comprising a guide pin having a round cylindrical body extending along a center axis and having a free distal leading end hemispherical in all radial directions from said guide pin center axis,
• a guide pin bracket extending along a center axis,
• said guide pin having a proximal end secured on said guide pin bracket with said center axis of said guide pin extending normal to said center axis of said guide pin bracket,
• a guide pin receptor having a truncated cone shaped entry end surface and a round cylindrical pin receptor channel communicating with and extending along a center axis from the apex of said truncated cone shaped entry end surface,
• means for mounting said guide pin bracket and said guide pin receptor on the door and the door frame in juxtaposed position with said guide pin in said guide pin receptor channel when the door is in the closed position, said pin distal end and said truncated cone shaped entry end surface of said receptor constituting guiding means when the door is moved from the open position to the closed position for guiding the door from misalignment in all radial directions to alignment with the axes of said pin and channel in substantial superimposed alignment.
