DOOR-HANGER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. '7, 1913.
Application filed December 17, 1912. Serial No. 737,328.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, CHARLES P. CHAM- BERLIN and FREDERICK MILLER, subjects of the King of Great Britain, residing at Calgary, in the Province of Alberta and Dominion of Canada, have invented new and useful Improvements in Door-Hangers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to hangers for sliding doors, and its object is to provide a simple, eflicient and inexpensive construction of hanger which is composed of a comparatively small number of parts not liable to get out of order.
The invention consists of the features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, in which,-
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a door hanger embodying the invention, showing it in position on a portion of a track adapted to receive it; a portion of the door suspended from the track being also shown. Fig. 2 is an end elevation of the parts shown in Fig. 1, with the portion of the door frame which appears, shown in vertical section. Fig. 3 is a detail view of a portion of the track. Fig. 1 is a similar view of the hanger.
Referring to the drawing, 1 designates a portion of a barn, car or other structure in which the doorway is formed, and 2 a portion of a sliding door. Secured to the door frame 1 is a plate 3, extending longitudinally above the doorway and having its lower end bent to provide a channeled track 1. At the ends of the track 4 portions of the plate are bent up to provide at each end a stop 5.
Mounted to travel in the channel track 4: is a ball 6 from which is suspended a hanger 7 The hanger 7 consists of a bar or plate having a hooked or partially circular upper end 8 bent to overlie the channel track and rest upon the ball. Immediately below the portion 8 the hanger is provided with retaining fingers 9 bent inwardly at right angles therefrom and arranged horizontally at the base of the portion 8, thus forming retainers cooperating with the portion 8 to provide a skeleton cage whereby displacement of the ball is prevented. Below the track the hanger is formed with a stop finger 10 projecting inwardly therefrom to underlie the track, so as to prevent the hanger from lifting beyond a predetermined extent.
The lower end of the hanger is bent longitudinally so as to lie in the plane of the axis of the ball 6 and is rolled to form a sleeve 11 which is internally threaded and arranged at an angle of about to the track and horizontal plane of travel of the door. Secured to the upper edge of the door is a bracket plate 12 having a short outer angularly bent end 13 lying at an obtuse angle thereto and having its opposite end 14 bent upwardly at right angles thereto and terminating in an angularly bent up strip 15 lying in a plane parallel with that of the end 13. The portions 13 and 15 are provided with openings to receive a screw 16 which is headed at each end to retain it from displacement and passes through and engages the threads of the sleeve 11, whereby the door is adjustably suspended from the hanger. The lower head of the screw is provided with a niche 17 or otherwise suitably constructed for the application of a wrench, by which the screw may be turned in one direction or the other to work in the sleeve 11 and thereby raise or lower the adjacent portion of the door, so that the latter may be adjusted to hang plumb. A locking nut 18 engages the screw and is arranged to bear upon the portion 13 to hold the screw from casual movement after the required adjustment has been effected.
In practice, it will be understood that the door is supported by two or more hangers, and it will be understood that by adjusting the screws of the hangers the door may be disposed to hang absolutely plumb. Also it will be understood that as each hanger is positively connected with one of the balls 6, which is free to travel in the channel track 4: within the cage portion of the hanger, and to revolve within the latter, an easy opening and closing movement of the door is insured. It will be apparent that the construction set forth is simple and effective for its intended purpose, that the parts of the hanger may be readily and conveniently applied and removed, and that in construct-ion the hanger is simple and inexpensive. The hanger is practically silent in operation, and may be made entirely so by lining the track with felt or any suitable soft material.
We claim In a door hanger, the combination of a trough-shaped track, a ball arranged to travel therein, a hanger having upper and lower relatively offset portions, the lower portion being arranged below the track and the upper portion out of the plane of the track, said upper portion having a curved extremity overhanging the track and resting on the ball, means for connecting the lower end of the hanger with a door, a centrally disposed stop finger formed from a portion of material displaced from the hanger and projecting therefrom beneath the track, and retaining arms formed from portions displaced from the hanger and bent inwardly from the opposite sides thereof to extend horizontally on opposite sides of the ball. a
In testimonv whereof we aflix our signatures in presence of two witnesses, 1
