if/d 22216 115 542 flab/25 lm messes To all whom-it may concern:

Be it known that I, MANUEL F. SALMINI, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hoboken, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented new and useful Improvements in Hangers, of which the following is a specification.

The invention relates to hangers, 'and more particularly to the class of pipe hangers.

.The primary object of the invention is the provision of a hanger of this character in which pipes or the like may be suspended,- spaced from a ceiling or .wall,.thus permitting the easy facing or painting of the same and also to obviate the corrosion of the pipe or the like.

Another object of the invention is the provision of a hangerin which each pipe section may be readily'and quickly mounted in and detached from the hanger Without disturbing other pipe sections of a main, or

a conduit from the hanger, without disturbing the other sections thereof, thereby enabling the pipe sections to be conveniently repaired or cleaned, as the occasion may require.

A further object of the invent-ion is the provision of ahan er in which the shank is detachable from t ev hinged split ring, so that the shank may be fastened in a fixed support, whereby the hanger can be readily and quickly mounted for use for the suspension of such pipe sections or the like.

i A still further object of the invention is the provision of. a hanger which is simple of construction, durable, thoroughly reliable and efficient in operation, and inexpensive in manufacture.

lVith these and other objects in view, the invention consists of theconstruction, combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more full 1 described, illustrated in the accompanymg drawings, and pointed out in the claim hereunto appended.

In the drawings: Figure 1 is a vertical section taken through a pipe and portion of a wall, with the hanger mounted therein and supporting the pipe constructed in accord .ance with the invention. Fig. 2 is aside elevation of a short portionof pipe showing the hanger supporting the same. Fig. 3 1s perspective. view of the shank of the hanger detached. Fig. 4"is a sectionalview on the line 44 of Fig. 1.

formed Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout flthe severalv views of the drawings.

' Referring to the drawings by numerals, 2

designates a portion of a Wall, into which is driven or otherwise mounted the hanger constructed in accordance with theinvention, as will be hereinafter more fully, described.

. The hanger comprises a split ring 3 of oppositely disposed arcuate shaped sections 4 and 5, the latter being hinged by means of a. pivot 6 to the section 4, so that the said section 5 may be swung from open to closed position, or vice versa.

The sect-ion 4 is provided with spaced outturned .ears 7 between which isinserted a threaded bolt extension 8 carried by the section 5 at one end thereof, and this threaded bolt extension carries an adjustable winged nut 9 adapted to engage the ears 7 whereby the sections 4 and '5 may be clamped securely about a pipe section 10 for the mounting thereof in the ring 2 of the hanger. I

The section 4 is provided with medially disposed perforated lugs 11 for connection with a shank 12, the latter being preferably in the form of aspike, which is provided at one end with a point 13 and at its opposite readily separated from the shank 12 on the removal of the pin, thus permitting the shank to be readily driven into the wall 2 or removed therefrom when desired.

The shank 12 is provided with a striking surface or a head 16, whereby the said shank may be readily driven into the wall 2 or other fixed part in which the same is to be mounted. It should be understood that to be more readily-applied or fastened to thewall or other fixed support, 7

the ring 3 clamps the pipe so as to support it.

Also, by reason from the shank or stem, it enables the latter \Vhatis claimed is:

"A hanger, comprising an arcuate Shaped stationary section hailing spaced perforated ears at one end, and an outturned split ear at the opposite end, a swinging arcuate shaped sectionhaving a single ear at one end engaged between the'spaced perforated ears, and a threaded ofiset extension at its I opposite end engageable in the split outturned ear, apivot passed through the spaced perforated ears and the single ear on the said sections, respectively, for hinging' the same together, a Winged nut engaged with the. threadedextension and Working against said split outturned ear for-adjustably locking the sections together, and a holding element adapted to be driven into a wall and detachably connected to the said stationary section and having an offset striking face projectinglaterally from the point of connection of the said holding element with the stationary section.

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
