Patented Oct. 29, 1929 ATENT OFFIE ICA CHLOE LAIRY, OF LOGANSPOR-T, INDIANA DOOR HANGER Application filed December 5, 1927,
This invention relates to improvements in hangers for doors and particularly to hangers for doors of closets or between adjoining rooms in which or on the door jamb is hung or otherwise suitably supported a bed which when the door is opened is adapted to be swung or drawn out or otherwise shifted from the closet or adjoining room into a llVlllO room and brought to a position for use and is which when not in use is concealed by the closed door.
One object of the invention is to provide a door hanger of this character which will permit the door to be swung or opened outwardly in the same nanner in which anordinarily hinged door is opened to pernnt the movement of the bed into the room and which after the bed has thus been moved and brought to a position for use, to be swung back to a closed position behind the bed, thus again closing the closet or doorway to the oining room.
Another object is to provide a hanger which when the door has been closed bel ind the bed as above indicated, will permit the door to be swung inwardly into the closet or adjoining room, thus atlording access to these compartments while the bed is use and without disturbing the same, it heir oi 39 course understood that the bed i or connected with the door the closet t t when swu i and lowered or ad' sition, it is also SlliI to permit passage through the door 0' when the door is opened inwardly dicated.
A further object is to provid r: the character described which w inexpensive and readily applied to the c but which will eiliciently and reliably the door in its various positions.
lVith the foregoing in view, the invention resides in the novel subject-matter herein after more particularly described and claimed, the description being supplemented by the companying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a front elevation the door in closed position for concealing a bed supported behind the same.
on the Serial No. 237,712.
Figure 2 is a similar view showing the door when opened for outward movement of the bed.
Figure 3 is a similar view showing the door when again closed behind the bed after the latter has been drawn or swung from the closet and adjusted to a position for use.
Figure 4 is a similar view showing the manner in which the door is opened inwardly into the closed or adjoining room for access thereto while the bed is in operative position.
Figure 5 is an enlar ed horizontal section of he door and its frame showing in full lines the closed position of the door as in Fig. 1, and in *roken lines the position of the door when opened outwardly as in Fig. 2, to per- 11 it the bed to be drawn or swung out of the closet.
Figure 6, is a similar view showing in full and broken lines the various positions the door occupies while being closed behind the drawn out bed.
Figure 7 is a similar view showing in full lines the position of the door when fully closed behind the bed after the latter has been drawn out and arranged in position for use and showing in broken lines the manner in which the door is opened inwardly for access to the closet or adjoining room when the bed in position for use.
Figure 8 is a fragmentary elevation of the upper portion of the door and frame with parts broken awa and in section and illustrating one form of the connection between the opposite ends of th hanger bar and the door and top of the door frame.
Figure 9 is a similar view showing another form of connection between one end of the hanger bar and the door.
Figure 10 is a perspective View of hinge edge of the door showing still another form of connecting means between the hanger bars and the door for supporting very heavy doors.
The drawings above briefly described illustrate the preferred form of construction which has proven efiicient and desirable, and while this construction will be herein specifically described, it is to be understood that within the scope of the invention as claimed, variations may be made.
Referring to the drawings, 5 denotes a door which may be of the usual or any suitable design or structure, and (3 denotes the door frame. The door may be the closure for a closet opening into a living room or for closing the doorway between two adjoining rooms and is designed for concealing a bed which when not in use is disposed in the closet or in an adjoining room.
The door is supported in position in the door frame by upper and lower hangers in the form of still' or rigid metal bars 7 and S which are of a length equal to about one half the width of the door. These hanger bars are provided at one end with means for pivotally connecting the same to the top and bottom edges of the door at or adjacent to one oi the side edges thereof and at their opposite ends with similar means for pivotally connecting the same with top of the door frame and with the floor. For the usual form closet doors or doors which are comparatively light in weight the connecting means is in. the form of substantially spherical knobs 9, which project in opposite directions from the ends of the bars as more clearly shown in Fig. 8 of the drawings. The knobs which connect with the door are engaged by socket plates 10 secured to the upper and lower edges of the door in any suitable manner, while the knobs which connect with the top of the door frame and with the floor are engaged with socket plates 11 and 12, which are respectively set into the top of the door frame and into the floor. The knobs entering sockets in the door, frame and floor an d being held in pivotal engagen'lent therewith by said plates as will be readily understood, the plates being secured in position by screws or the like.
The floor plates are considerably larger than the other plates and if desired may be formed in two sections as shown. These plates may also be provided with upwardly projecting semi-circular tracks 13 over which the lower bars slide when the door is moved and thus tend to reduce friction of the engaging parts. It desired these semi-circular tracks may be in the form of raceways for bearing balls which would further reduce friction between the bars and plates.
For doors which are somewhat heavier tnan usual the door engaging ends of the hanger bars may be provided with elongated pins 14: which engage sockets 15 set into the upper and lower edges of the door as shown in Fig. 9. In exceptionally heavy doors the hanger bars may be connected with the door by a rod or bar 16 extending the full length of the door and en 'aging a groove in one of the side edges thereof, the rod being held in pivotal engagement with the groove by short metal straps 17, as clearly shown in Fig. 10 of the drawings.
The door may be provided with any suitable knob actuated latch or bolt 18 adapted to engage suitable sockets or keepers in the sides of the door frame. In addition to the latch or bolt, stop pins 19 and 20 may be set into the top of the door frame and into the floor respectively and which project a suitable distance to be engaged by the upper and lower hanger bars when the door is in either or its closed positions, said pins limiting the movement of the hanger bars when the door has been swung or shifted to said closed positions. Another stop pin 21 is also arranged in the top of the door frame to limit the movement of the upper hanger bar when swung around to about 180 degrees by the movement oi the door when brought to its closed position behind the bed when the latter is drawn out for use.
The bed may be of the usual or any pre- .tcrred term of bed of this character as may also the method and means for supporting the same to be drawn or swung out and adjusted to its position for use, but as the bed eiits supporting means forms no part of the present invention neither have been particularly described or shown in the drawings.
In the operation of the door, it is first swung open on its hanger bars from the position shown in Figures 1 and 5 to the position shown in Figure 2 and in dotted lines in Figure 5. This movement of the door is the same as that in which an ordinary door would be opened. The bed is then drawn or swung out of the closet or adjoining room and adjusted to its position for use in the living room. When this has been done the door is pushed inwardly and at the same time swung around to a closed position behind the bed, in the manner clearly illustrated in Figure 6 of the drawings. This operation reverses the position of the door so that closet or inner side of the door is now outside and the latch edge is adjacent to the opposite side of the door :trame while the pivoted edge of the door is adjacent to the other side of the frame as shown in Figures 3, 6 and 7.
lVhen the door is in the last named position it can be swung or opened inwardly as shown in Figure at and in broken lines in Fig. 7, to permit access to the closet or adjoining room as will be clearly understood.
The hanger bars are formed from very rigid metal, preferably steel, and are suiiiciently large and strong enough to support the door. The weight of the door, however, is carried principally by the semi-circular tracks on the floor plates which are engaged by the lower hanger bar.
From the foregoing it will be seen that by providing a door arranged and hung as herein shown and described, a bed disposed in a closet or adjoining room is hidden from the living room when not in use and after the bed has been brought to a position for use the door may be moved to a position behind the b and closet or doorway again closed. The
door, however, may still be opened for passage through the doorway at one side of the bed, which as will be understood will not extend entirely across the doorway but is shifted to one side when adjusted to its position for use.
W hat is claimed and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is In combination with a door frame, a door movable as a whole through the frame in either direction, means for carrying the door comprising an arm pivotally attached to the middle of the top of the door frame and to the rear upper corner of the door, and an arm pivotally attached midway between the lower ends of the frame and to the rear lower corner of the door whereby the door may be opened from either in front or back, and the door may be closed in said frame in a reversed position with the front surface of the door either way with respect to the frame opening, and in either position of the door.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
