ABSTRACT:
The invention is an anti-rotational lock chassis for a retractable latch. The lock chassis includes a first hub having at least one flat side and a second hub with a thread exterior. An internally threaded plate receives the externally threaded hub. The flat-sided plate receives the flat-sided hub. Each plate is positioned between a spring cage assembly and the chassis. The spring cage assembly includes a drive spindle that rotates to extend and retract the latch to secure access through a door. A connecting element interconnects the spring case assemblies. Cutouts in each plate engage the connecting elements, thereby constraining the plates and chassis from rotating inside the door.
