Comment: "The same patent seems to be online at http://www.freepatentsonline.com/EP1233127.html . If you create an account, you can see the images. I think it is a bushing, which is "a metal lining inserted in a hole, pipe etc. to reduce its size" according to the dictionary. References missing."

protection frame
According to Littré and Larousse (both), une garniture is "un dispositif ou matière formant un joint hermétique auour d divers organes" (Lar),or " garnitures métalliques, en cuir ou en caoutchouc, destinées à protéger ou renforcer divers objets" (Lit). I do not think it has any relation with a side plate.
Peer comment(s):

Tony M
: There is nothing in either of the definitions you cite to suggest the translation 'protection frame', which in any case, is a pretty unlikely thing to find in a lock.
