PIPE-HANGER.
Application filed December 15. 1897. Serial No. 661,973. I
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM A. RUssELL,a-
citizen of the United States, residing at New Brighton, county of Richmond, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pipe-Hangers," fully described and represented in the following ferred construction embodying allthefeatures of the invention. 7
In said drawings, Figure 1 shows the pipehanger in side elevation. Fig. 2 is a view looking in the direction of the arrow 2 of Fig. 1 and partly in section. Fi 3 is a bottom plan view showing the inter ocking ends, of the supporting-collar. Fig.- 4 shows in perspective the two parts of the supporting-collar detached.-
cured thereto, so as to allow the hanger to swing freely. One of the bars, as 10, is formed with a longitudinal guiding-slot 12 to receive a stud 13, carried by the upper end of the bar 11 and formed with a head, so asto hold the bars together. The other bar 11 is'formed with a number of openings 14, arranged longitudinally of the bar, for receiving a button '15, carried by the lower end of the bar 10,
these openings 14 and the button thus .providing, in connection with the slot 12 and pin 13, means for adjustably securing the bars and 11 together, so as to provide for increasing or decreasing the length of the shankfas it is desired to support the pipe at a higher or a lower level.
The openings 14 are preferably of the form shown, having an enlarged portion for admitting the button and a'narrow portion for preventing the escape of the button when the parts have been moved so as to bring the narrow portion about the neck of the button,
in which position the parts are normally held .by the weight of the'pipe when the hanger is in use, the narrow portion being above the enlarged portion in the construction shown, in which the openings are in the downwardlyeXtending part of the shank. The button 15 is preferably a turn-button, being pivotally connected to the bar 10, so that it may turn or be turned by hand, .and of such form that it can pass through the opening 14 only when turned to proper position, as by being Patented. Dec. 5,1905.
provided with the lug 16, as shown in the drawings, the lug l6 after the button 15 has been passed through an opening 14 either assuming or being moved into a position crosswise of the slot (see Fig. 1) or, if the piv.
otal connection between the button 15 and" bar 10 be sufficiently loose, dropping by gravity into a position longitudinal of the slot.
In either of these positions of the lug 16 accidental disconnection of the two'bars 10 11, "due to transverse or longitudinal movement of one member relatively to the other, .will'be prevented, as in either the crosswise or longitudinal position of the lug shift the bar 1 1 on the bar 10 that the button 15 be turned so that the lug 16 shall stand upright, as well as that the bar 11 be moved upward to bring the enlarged portion of the pin 13 opposite the. neck of the button. Accidental movement of the bar 11 on the bar 10 is thus effectually guarded against, while when desired the'length of the shank may be readily and conveniently adjusted.
The pipe-supporting collar B is secured to the lower end of the bar 11 and is formed of two parts 20 21, each having a neck portion and a curved portion, the ends of the curved portions being formed with notches 22, as clearly shown in Fig. 4, to form an interlockingjoint beneath the pipe. The neckportioin of the part 21 is formed with a longitudinal slot 23 and is secured to the end of the bar 11 same form as the openings 14, and issecured to the bar 11 onthe other side from the neck portion of the part .21 by means of a button 26, preferably of the same form as the button 15. The slot 23 permits the supporting-c01- lar to be moved relatively to the bar 11 on the pin 24 to bring the narrow portion of the opening 25 opposite the neck of the button after the parts have been placed in position and to bring the enlarged part of the opening 0 posite the neck of the button for opening t e supporting-collar.
In placing a pipe in the hanger the part 20 of the collar is removed, the pipe D is placed in position in the part 21, and the part 20 is then slid into position to cause the ends of the curved portions of the parts to interlock beneath the pipe, and then the neck of the part 20 is closed in on the end of the bar 11 and secured by the button, the supporting collar being raised so as to bring the enlarged part of the opening 25 opposite the neck of the button and the button being turned so that its lug will pass through the narrow part of the opening. The supporting-collar being then lowered to bring the neck of the button in the narrow part of the opening 25 and the button being turned, the collar will be held securely closed on the pipe.
It will be noticed that the end of the part 21 of the supporting-collar extends beneath the pipe D sufficiently to support the pipe independently of the other part 20, thus enabling the pipe to be conveniently placed in or removed from a number of hangers, as the pipe will be supported by the parts 21 while the parts 20 are being secured to or removed from the hanger.
It will be seen that I thus provide a hanger which is readily adjustable for supporting the pipe at different distances from the point of support, which allows considerable free longitudinal and lateral movement of the pipe and also slight vertical movement and which is convenient and reliable and yet simple in construction and can be produced and sold at a low price.
What is claimed is 1. A pipe-hanger having a shank portion formed of two overlapping bars 10, 11, one provided with a button and the other with a longitudinal series of openings each adapted to receive and interlock with the button, each of said openings being elongated longitudinally of the bar to permit of longitudinal play of one bar relatively to the other when the button is interlocked with one of said openings, substantially as described.
2. A pipe-hanger having a shank portion formed of two overlapping bars, one provided with a button 15 and the other with a longitudinal series of openings 14 each adapted to receive and interlock with the button, each of said openings having an enlarged portion for the passage of the head of the button and with a narrow portion extending longitudinally of the bar in which the neck of the button is maintained by the Weight of the pipe supported by the hanger, substantially as described.
3. A pipe-hanger having a shank portion formed of two overlapping bars, one provided with a button 15 having a lateral projection 16, and the other with a longitudinal series of openings 14 each adapted to receive and interlock with the button, each of said openings having an enlarged portion for the passage of the head of the button and with a narrow portion extending longitudinally of the bar for the passage of the lateral projection 16 and in which the neck of the button is maintained by the weight of the pipe supported by the hanger, substantially as described.
4. A pipe-hanger having a shank portion formed of two overlapping bars 10, 11, one provided with one member of a locking device and the other with a longitudinal series of corresponding locking members each adapted to engage with the locking member on the first bar, the locking members of the two bars being so constructed and arranged as topermit when interlocked of longitudinal play of one bar relatively to the other, one of the said bars being provided with a longitudinal slot 12 and the other with. a pin 13 permitting the longitudinal adjustment of one of said bars relatively to the other, substantially as described.
5. A pipe-hanger having a shank portion and a supporting-collar consisting of two oppositely-curved parts, as 20, 21, the lower ends whereof are bent inwardly and provided with notches 22 whereby said ends may be interlocked upon the inner surface of the collar, said collar being connected to said shank portion by a pin-and-slot connection ermitting swinging movement of said col ar and play thereof longitudinally of said shank portion, substantially as described.
6. A pipe-hanger having a shank portion, and a supporting-collar formed of two parts 20 and 21 having oppositely-curved portions with their ends formed with notches 22 to interlock beneath the pipe and having neck portions by which they are secured to the shank, the neck of one of said parts having a slot 23 and being secured to the shank by a pin passing through the slot 23, and the neck of the other of said parts having an opening 25 for receiving a button 26 on the shank, said opening having an upwardly-extending narrow portion for receiving the neck of the button, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
