DOOR FRAME AND HINGE.
Application filed February 14, 1921. SeriaI No. 444,836.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that 1, Joan C. lAn'rrnms, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oklahoma city, in the county of Oklahoma and State of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Door Frames and Hinges; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make anduse the same.
The invention relates to swinging closures such as doors for barns and like structures, the purpose being to provide a frame independent of the structure for carrying the weight of the door and which is adjustable to insure a neat fit, said frame, besides bearing the weight of the door, serving asbracing means for the barn orlike structure.
A further purpose of the invention isthe provision of a hinge of peculiar formation and capable of lifting the door as the lat ter swings so as to clear any obstruction tending to interfere with the free swinging of the door. 2
Other objects and advantages will be apparent and suggest themselves as the nature of the invention is understood.
While the drawings illustrate an embodiment of the invention, it is tobe understood that in adapting the same to meet different conditions and requirements, various changes in the form, proportion and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the nature of the invention.
Referring to the accompanying drawings forming a part of the specification,
Figure 1 is a front view of a barn showing the application of the invention,
Figure 2 is a detail view of the adjustable joint between the sections of the frame,
Figure 8 is a detail view or" the hinge,
Figure 4 is a detail view of a modified form of the hinge having a removable cap plate,
Figure 5 is a transverse sectional view through fragments of a closure and building illustrating the improved hinge connection employed in plan.
Figure 6 is a detail view of one form of foot for the frame, and
Figure 7 is a detail view of another form of foot for the frame.
' Corresponding and like parts are referred weight and serving as bracing and reinforcing means for the structure. The frame 2 comprises similar or like sections which are adjustably connected, whereby provision is had for maintaining a close joint between the parts comprising the door closure. Each section or part of the frame 2 comprises an upright portion and a horizontal portion.
The upright portions of the frameare preferably stepped in concrete 3 which forms a footing therefor. Any suitable means may be employed for insuring and maintaining a positive connection between the frame and the concrete footing 3. As indicated in Figure 6, a bar or strap 4 is embedded in the concrete 3 and thelo'wer end of the frame 52 engages the part 4: in any convenient way. As illustrated in Figure 7, a plate 5 receives the lower end of the framewhich is threaded thereto, said plate being secured to the con crete by means of bolts 6, or analogous fastoning means. I Y
A coupling 7 adjustably connects the herizontal portions of the frame. The opposite ends of the coupling 7, are reversely threaded and engage correspondingly threaded ends of the frame. The intermediate portion of the coupling 7 is constructed to receive a suitable tool, whereby the coupling may be rotated to effect adjustment of the frame. As shown, the intermediate portion of the coupling is of polygonal form to receive a wrench or spanner. A bracket 8 is secured in any convenient and substantial way to the barn or structure 1 centrally of the door opening, audits end portions are adj ustably connected to the horizontal portions of the frame beyond the joint formed by the coupling 7. Bolts 9 secure the horizontal portions of the frame to opposite ends of the bracket 8 and pass through slots 10 formed in the end portions of the bracket. When adjusting the frame, the bolts 9 are loosened and, after adjustment has been efiected, the
E iorcing and bracing the same.
frame is made secure in the adjusted position by retiohtening the bolts 9, as will be readily understood;
The hinges comprise bars 11 and movable leaves 12. The pintle ends of the bars 11 are forked to receive the pintle ends of the leaves 12. Bars 11 are secured to the barn or structure 1. Leaves 12 are attached to the door or closure 13. The hinge or pint'le ends or bars 11 and leaves 1? are formed with leaves or ey s through which the upright portions of the ame 2 pass. Leaves 12 are thus journailed to swing laterally on the frame 2. The
ends of the hinge members maybe of any constii'iiiction. ln some instances it may be preferable to provide removable cap plates ldsvhereby the parts may be easily assem-- bled and provision had for ready dismemben mer oi the parts when required A screw on 3L1 connection 15 is provided between the frame 2 and thehinge member 12 to admit of lifting the door simultaneously with its swinging movement, thereby enabling the door;to clear an obstruction when swinging into openposition. The screw threads cons ituting the screw thread connection 15 may boot any form and relative pitch. The forked members of the part 11 must be separated a distance to provide ample space for the vertical movement of the hinge member 12. The frame 2 is preferably tubular and constructed of pipes, the sections l eing con nected Ly the usual pipe fittings. The hinge member 11 secured. to the barn l is made fast to the frame 2. The hinge member 12 is loose so as toswing freely about the upright portion oi: the frame 2; When the hinge em bodiesa screw thread connection, as 15, a coupling member lfiisprovided and its end portions are slipped .o the sections of the i rght portion of thei'rame and are pinned or otherwise secured thereto. The intermediateportion of the coupling menib r 16 is provided with screw threads forming the screw thread connection between the .iframe and hinge member 12. This arrangement provides for the ready assembling of the parts and for IGQlElCGDIGnt when repairs become necessary.
The frame 2, to which the doors or closures are hinged, is practically independent or" the structure, since it is not built in as part thereof. The frame :2 may be secured to the structure opposite the door opening in any manner so as to materially assist in rein- The entire weight of the doors or closures is carried by the frame 2, thereby relieving the structure of the usual stresses incident to hingin the doors directly thereto. By having the irame adjustalile, a neat fit may be, maintained since the frame may be expanded to allow for swelling or contracted to compensate for shrinkage. The lifting of the door simultaneously with its swinging into open position provides for free movement and prevents the hanging oi the door on the surface as commonly experienced in the operation of swing ing barn doors. I
lVhat is claimed is: I
1. A barn or like structure provided with a door opening, a frame comprising upright portions and horizontal portions, a footing concrete receiving the} upright portions of the frame, means adjustably connecting the horizontal portions oi theframe', a closure for the door opening,and hingej'menibers mounted on the frameand having connection with the structure and closure, respectively. y
2. in combination, a barn or like structure having a door opening, a frame in line'w'ith the door opening and comprising upright portions and horizontal portions, a bracket secured to the structure above the door opening, means adjustablyconnecting'the hori zontal portion of the frame with said bracket, coupling means adjusta'b I the horizontal portions of the sine, a d closure means hingedly connected toth'efupright portions of the frame. l I,
3. A barn orlilre structure having a door opening, a frame in line with the dboropena .d comprising upright portions and zontal'portions, a footing receiving the ht. portions otthe frame,a coupling adji ably connecting the horizontal portions or one frame, a bracket secured to the structure above the door opening and having ad justable connection withthe horizontal portions of the frame. closure, and hinge connections between the upright portions of the "frame and closure comprising cooperating fixed. and movable.threaded members Whereby to efiect vertical. n. veinent of the'closure simultaneously with its swingingmovement. in testimony whereof I altix my signature in presence of two witnesses. g
