  • each clamp part 38 is of part circular form to conform to the frame 36 and is provided at its end opposite the clamping bolt 39 with a lug 40 for engaging the other clamp part.
  • Each clamp part 38 also includes a tubular gudgeon member 41 which is adapted to be aligned with the gudgeon member 41 of the other clamp part 38 as shown in Fig. 6.
  • the hinge pin 42 for the hinge assembly 34 is of L-shaped form comprising an elongated threaded rod 43 which is adapted to extend through a bore 44 in a support post 45 and an upstanding pivot pin 46 which is adapted to be received within the gudgeons 41 to support the clamp 37 and thus the gate 35 for pivotal movement.
  • respective nuts 47 are engaged with the threaded rod 43 on opposite sides of the post 45 and their adjustment along the rod 43 will vary the pivotal axis of the hinge assembly 34 relative to the post 45 and thus the axis about which the gate 35 swings.
  • the post 45 is circular in cross-section, however, it may be of any other cross-sectional form.
  • the post 45 may alternatively be hollow in which case the aperture 44 for the rod 43 may be defined by aligned holes on opposite sides of the post 45.
  • Fig. 7 there is illustrated an alternative form of hinge assembly 9' similar to the embodiment of Fig. 1 and in which like parts have been given like numerals, the hinge assembly 9' mounting the gate 10 to post 12.
  • the elongated members 14 are el minated and replaced by an angle bracket 48 whose top flange 49 seats on the top face of the frame member 11 and whose side flange 50 abuts the side face of the frame member 11 to be secured thereto by fasteners 51, for example screws passed through apertures in the side flange 50.
  • the top flange 49 is extended to support the pivot pin 15, which is located rotatably in a tubular member 16.

  • the hinge assembly 53 is fixed to the gate frame member 11 by means of a bracket 54 which includes a flat flange portion 55 secured to the frame member 11 by screws 56 or any other suitable fasteners and two upstanding end flanges 57 which are apertured for receiving a threaded rod 58 therethrough.
  • Respective nuts 59 are engaged with the rod 58 to abut opposite end flanges 57.
  • the threaded rod 58 is secured to a tube 60 which extends transversely of the rod 58 and which is adapted to rotate about a pivot pin 61 which is provided at each end with mounting flanges 62 which mount the pin 61 to a mounting plate 63, the latter being secured to a wall 64 by any suitable fasteners.
  • the pivot pin 61 is disposed outwardly of the wall 64 so that the hinge 53 and gate 10 have the capability of pivoting in opposite directions. Adjustment is achieved by releasing the nuts 59 and moving the rod 58 relatively to the bracket 54 whereafter it may be locked in its desired position by tightening the nuts 59 against the flanges 57.
  • FIG. 9 there is illustrated yet a further embodiment of the hinge assembly 65 similar to the embodiment of Fig. 8 but in which the flange portion 55' is extended at 66 and wherein the nuts 59 are eliminated and replaced by a single adjusting nut 67 located between the flanges 57. It will be apparent that rotation of the nut 67 in opposite directions will cause the gate 10 to move inwardly and outwardly relative to the pivot axis of the hinge 65 defined by the pivot pin 61 and tube 60.
  • hinge assembly 68 which is in the form of a T-hinge and having an arm or wing 69 adapted to be secured to a member to be swung for example a gate.

  • the rod 71 is curved at 74 adjacent its connection to the tube 72 so that the hinge assembly parts are disposed in substantially the same plane.
  • the threaded rod 71 and tube 72 are preferably connected by welding to the respective hinge parts 72 and 69.
  • a pair of nuts 75 are screw engaged with the rod 71 at opposite ends of the member 70 to allow adjustment of the arm or wing 69 relative to the pivot tube 70 and thus hinge 73 to thereby vary the position of the member to which the arm 69 may be secured relative to the hinge 73.
  • the tube 76 for receiving the threaded rod 77 is formed by rolling a section 78 (shown in dotted outline) of the wing 79 inwardly.
  • respective nuts 80 are located about the threaded rod 77 at opposites ends of the tube 76.
  • The. post or support plate 81 also has a portion 82 (shown in dotted outline) rolled to form a tubular member 83 for receipt of a curved end 84 of the rod 77 to define the pivot connection between the wing 79 and plate 81.
  • the threaded rod 85 which may be connected to the wing or arm in a similar manner to that of Figs. 10 to 13 is directly pivotally connected to the hinge plate 86.
  • the rod 85 includes for this purpose a bore 87 in its end for receipt of a pivot pin 88 supported by the plate 86. If desired washers or spaces may be located on opposite sides of the rod 85 adjacent the bore 87 to provide additional support to the rod 85.
  • the embodiment of Figs. 15 and 17 is similar to that of Fig. 9, except that the adjustment arrangement is of the form of Figs. 10 and 11. In this case, however, the wing 89 which supports the rod receiving tube 90 is secured in use to the top surface of the gate frame member 91.
  • the supporting bracket 92 is also such as to allow for one hundred and eighty degrees pivotal movement so that the gate 93 may swing flush say against a wall 94.
  • This embodiment may also be adapted for steel frame gates and for this purpose the wing 89 may be of angled sectioned form to seat on a tubular gate frame member to be secured thereto by welding or other means.
  • the hinge assemblies of the invention enable a gate or other member to be swung in opposite directions as required whilst the threaded rods and associated nuts permit adjustment of the hinge axes of the hinges and thus of the gates. Adjustments may be made after initial hanging so as to cater for expansion or contraction of the wood components in the gate and to ensure that correct swinging is maintained without jamming. Whilst the hinge assemblies of the invention are particularly suited for hanging gates they may be readily applied to other situations where a member is required to be hung from a hinge.
