Application filed December 2, 1920.
constructed that they may be readily applied to doors of different thicknesses, and also have such adjustability as to adapt av door to which they may be secured to be suspended so as to lie closer to or farther from the wall in which is the doorway that the door is employed to close. It is the leading object of my invention to provide a cheap, simple and effective construction of hanger that will permit the ready accomplishment of the adjustment required to adapt it for attachment to different widths of doors or to properly hold a door at the desired distance away from a wall. Briefly stated, I accomplish this object by attaching to the lower portion of the rod or bar that depends from the traveling carriage a crosshead that is provided near each of its ends with an upwardly-extending stud, each of which passes through two registering slots formed respectively in the overlapping horizontal portions of the aprons that are con nected to opposite faces of the door, and to the upper ends of such studs applying securing devices, such as nuts. It is a further object of the invention to provide, in connection with the pendant rod or bar member that carries such a cross-head, means for moving the door with reference to such pendant,such movement of the door in one embodiment of the invention being a swinging outward movement and in another embodiment being a vertical movement for ad justing purposes. The first-mentioned movement is permitted by reason of hingedly con necting the pendant and the cross-head to gether, and the other movement is permitted by screw-threading the lower end. of the pendant rod to engage a tapped opening in the cross-head.
What I claim as new will be pointed out in the claims:

Flg. 4 is a cross-sectional view at line 4- l of Fig. 2; Fig. 5 illustrates a modified form of mv inventlon, the view being a vertical section through a door and through one of the improved hangers by which it is suspended, some of the parts being shown in elevation, only a fragmentary view of the door being shown;
D Fig. 6 is a vertical section taken substan tlally at line 66 of Fig. 5; Fig. 7 is a cross-sectional P view taken at line 1-7 of Fig. 6; and
F 1g. 8 is a central section through one of the wheels with which the carriage of either form of the invention is provided.
Referring to the several figures of the drawings,-rl indicates a sliding door of any ordinary construction adapted to close a doorway in a wall of a building. B indicates an overhead track for the door hangers, which track may be of any ordinary construction. As shown, it is of that wellknown type that is formed from a single pieceof sheet-metal bent upon itself to form astructure comprising a top wall, two side walls and two spaced-apart track-rails formed'by turning the marginal portions of the side walls inwardly and upwardly. C and D indicate, respectively, the frame and wheels of a carriage adapted, in the construction shown. to run upon the two rails of the track B, ball-bearings E being preferably employed between the frame members C and the axle of each pair of wheels, as shown in Fig. 8. Two of such wheeled carriages will ordinarily be provided for a door, and from each of them is suspended a pendant that projects through the slot between the rails of the track, and to the lower ends of which pendants are secured the door through the use of suitable connecting devices.
Referring now particularly to the construction shown in Figs, 1 to 4}, inclusive, the
pendant that has'been referred to'is shown formed ofa flat stripolO bent centrally upon itself to form a sleeve or wide eye 11, which sleeve or eye portion constitutes, when the device is in operative position, thelower end of the pendant. Tl'lG ends of the strip lie between the bars, that constitute the frame C of the carriage and are secured in place by a bolt 12 that passes throughthe pendant'and the carriage frame and upon which bolt a nut 13 is screwed. 1e and 15 indicate two aprons adapted to lie alongside of opposite faces of the door A and be secured thereto by bolts and nuts. liach'apron is provided with a horizontal member indicated respectively by. 1 1 and 15 which lie over the upperledge oi? the door with one of such parts superimposed upon the other, as clearlyshown in Fig. 3. In each member 14:, 15 are two slots that extend trans versely of the door, said slots being'at opposite sides of the pendantand said slots in one member overlying or registering with the slots in the other member. The two slots in the apron member 14- are indic'atedby 1t and those in the apron member 15 by 15 In the central portion of each horizontal apron member is another transverse slot which are in registry with each other and through which extends the pendant 10.
These two last-mentioned slots are indicated I by 14 and 15, respectively.
16 indicates a cross-head, which, as shown in said Figs. 1 to inclusive, is-formed or. acylindrical shape and has its one portions turned to stand atright angles to the main or body portions to form studs 17, each of which, as shown, is screw-threaded. The cross-head isof such length as to permit the turned ends or studs 17 to extend up through the two pairs of overlyingor registering slots in the apron members 14 and-115 and they are held in such slots by nuts '17 a that are screwed upon them and against the uppermost one of: such apron members. The
cross-head passes through the sleeve or eye portion 11 that forms the lower end of the pendant and thefit of the parts is such as to permit a tree turning of the cross-head V in its sleeve oreye when the door is moved ,to swingit away from the wall in which is the doorway that the door serves to close.
'As clearly shown in Fig, 2 the upper edge of the door A has cut therein a recess 18 of l modified form does not permitof the outproper size and shape to receive the crosshead and the lower portion of the pendant.
By, reason of the construction above described it is evident that doors of anythickness may be suspended by the means shown so long as the thickness of the door'is not such. as to preclude a suflicient extent of the overlying slots in the apron members 14 and 15 to register for receiving the vertically-disposed end studs. Also, while it is desirable that thedoor be suspendedso that tion ot its its longitudinal center be directly below the middleportion of the carriage axles, yet if it isit'ound desirable or necessary on account of the thickness of the doorto have the doors said longitudinal center at one or the other of such middle portion of the carriage axles, such arrangement of the door can readily be made after the nuts on the studs 17 have been loosened sufiiciently,
reference characters'as in the other construction. In said modification the pendant is shown as formed of? a cylindrical rod and is indicated by 19. The frame bars of. the wheeled carriage from which it depends are bowed outwardlyv to form a socket through which the oendant iassesgand in which it can be rotated, a head on the upper end of the pendant rod resting on the upper edges of said frame bars so as to hold it against withdrawal downwardthe pendant thus having a swiveling connectionwith the car in .je frame. F or a considerable porlength the pendant rod is, screwthreaded and such screw-threaded portion extends through tapped opening in s an enlarged or thickened central portion of a cross-bar 20 which correspondsin function with the cross-bar 16 of the first-described ronstruction. The horizontalv members of the apron are of course to be provided; as
in the other construction, with transverse registering slots 1 1 and 15 through which the pendant rod passes. lnthis modified form the cross-bar is preferablymade as a malleable casting. and owing "to having threaded into it the pendant rod 19 is necessarily made somewhat larger and heavier than the cross-rod first described. lt.'however, is provided with the same upwardly-extending screw-threaded studs 17 as in the other construction that pass through and cotiperate with the slotted apron members so as to allow of the same adjustments as before described. lVhile the such deepened central portion of the recess is indicated by 21. It will be readily under stood that inasmuch as the cross-bar 20 is held fixedly in place by the nuts 1'? on its studs, a rotation of the pendant in the tapped opening of such crossbar will compel a vertical adjustment of the door. After the desired vertical adjustment has been. thus secured the pendant is held locked against further rotation by means of a nut 22 that is to be screwed down against the uppermost apron member.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A door-hanger comprising in combination a wheeled carriage, a pendant connected at its upper end therewith, a device connected with the lower end of said pendant and extending at an angle therefrom and in substantially the same direction as the path of travel. of the carriage when the hanger is attached to a door, said device having an up wardly extending stud, a member adapted to be affixed to a door and extend over the upper edge thereof and above said device that is connected with the lower end of the pendant, said member being provided with an opening therethrough for the passage of the pendant and another opening for the reception of said stud.
