Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July c, in
Application filed June 3, 1914. Serial No. 842,600.
ToaZZ or am it may concern Be it known that I, EARL H. SINGERS, a citizen of the United-States of America, residing at Vorthington, in the county of Greene and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Silo-Door Mountings, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in silo door mountings and more particularly to door mountings for plastic silos; the object being to provide novel means for supporting the door, whereby rungs will be formed to provide a ladder by means of which, a person can ascend the wall of the silo.
Another object ofthe invention is to provide novel means for mounting the pintles within the silo and doors whereby they will be securely held in position; said means constituting reinforcing elements for the silo and doors.
'Another and further object of the invention is to provide novel means for mounting the pintles carried by the silo in such a manner that they can be readily detached so that when they become worn, new ones can be inserted, said pintles being locked in position within sockets carried by reinforcing members.
Another and still further object of the invention is to provide angular hanger arms forthe doors, by means of which, the doors can be swung inwardly to one side of the door opening against the inner wall thereof, so as to allow the doors to be out of the way, said doors when closed, forming a smooth surface within the silo.
Other and further objects and advantages of the invention will be hereinafter setforth and. the novel features thereof defined by the appended claims.
In the drawings-Figure 1, is a front view of a portion of a silo showing the application of my improved door mounting; Fig. 2, is a horizontal section taken on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1; Fig. 3, is a similar section showing the door in open position;
Fig. 1, is a front view of the reinforcing member provided with the sockets to receive the pintle members; Fig. 5, is a detail vertical'section through the reinforcing mem- {ber and socket showing the pintle member locked in position therein; and Fig.i-.6,.i5fl. detail perspective of the door reinfhrclng member provided with the integral pintl'cs Like numerals of reference refer to like parts in the several figures of the drawin In the drawing, 1 indicates the wall of; the silo which is preferably formed of any suitable plastic material, and while the may be a continuous plastic wall, it is of course understood that plastic staves can be employed for forming the silo; said silo throughout the length thereof across which are arranged at intervals, cross barsg of.
the usual form.
The edges of the door opening and cross bars are rabbeted as shown, into which "is adapted to fit, the rabbeted edges 4 of a;
' doors being so constructed that'when in position as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the inner face is flush with the inner wall of the silo.
Embedded within the door 5 when the same is being formed, is a vertically arranged metal bar 6 whichis provided with an integral threaded bolt 7 on which is mounted a locking bar 8 adapted to be clamped across the door opening by a binding nut 9 mounted upon the bolt 7 so as to securely draw the door into position within its jamb to form a practically air-tight joint. The metal bar 6 is provided adjacent each end with an angular pintle member 10, the pintle portion 11 of which, extends downwardly and on which are mounted the eyes 12 of angular hanger arms 13, two of these hanger arms being employed for each door section and it will be seen that by mounting the doors on thehangcr in this manner, they are free to be detached by raising the same vertically, so as to draw the pintles out of. the eyes.
having a vertical door opening extending Embedded within the wall at the S110 to .members are provided the: same with spaced barsl-la continuous bar could be employed provided with spaced sockets without departing from the spirit of my invention.
the same is free to move inwardly and to one' side untilit engages theinner wall of the'silo. v
From the foregoing description, it will be seen that I have provided a door mounting for silos especially constructed tobe used in connection with'a-plastic silo. but it is of course understood that the same could be used inconnection with a wooden silo without departing from my invention.
I claim: r
1. The combination with a plastic silo having a door openinga'nd a plastic door therefor. of a reinforcing element embedded within said door and silo, pintles carried b3 portions forming horizontally disposed slots in the face of the bar and intermediate shoulders within said sockets, of pintle members mounted in said sockets, projections formed on said pintle members adapt- .ed to be turned into engagement with the shoulders of the sockets. and a stop projecting from one shoulder of said sockets in the path of said projectionsfor limiting the movement of said pintle therein.
3. The combination with a structure, of a reinforcing element embedded therein having a'cylindrical socket provided with contracted portions forming a slot in the reinforcing element, and shoulders in the socket,
a stop formed within said socket. a pintle member having a shank provided with an enlarged end adapted to extend through said slot of the socket and to be oscillated until engaged by said stop for locking the shank of the pintle in the socket with the pintle in vertical position.
In testimony whereof I hereunto afiix my I signature in the presence of two witnesses.
