Description

UNITED STATES PASCAL P. CHILD, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
IMPROVEMNT IN REVERSIBLE` HINGES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 119,319, dated September 26, 1871.
` in Hinges, of which the following is a speciiication:
The female part of the hinge has two projections, pierced by vertical sockets, to receive the ends of the pivot-pin that extends upward and downward from the curved shank. The lower projection has two inclines, which act upon` the shank to hold the Igate or door either open or shut. The hinge is reversible. It is cast coinplete in two pieces, and requires but little or no finishing, and is consequently manufactured at a low cost. Y
Figure l is a perspective view of the hinge in its half-opened condition. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the hinge when closed.
A is the female part having4 screw-holes a and projections B B2. The projections are pierced with vertical sockets C C2. `The projecting lip` B has inclines b b2, the former of which, b,as shown inthe drawing, will act upon the shank of the hinge to hold the gate open, and the latter, b2, to hold it shut. D is the plate of the male part of the hinge having screw-holes c. Eis thel shank, to which the pivot-pin F is attached by its midlength, the upper end passing through the socket C, and the lower end through the socket O2,.the shank resting on the inclined surface of the lip B2. The hinge is reversible (so as to form a right or left-hand hinge) by inverting the male part so as to reverse the ends of the pin in the sockets, thershank E being so curved as to bring the surfaces of the plates A and D into the same plane when the hinge is in its closed condition, and so that the hinge can beapplied without any fitting, being screwed fast to the nat outer sides of the post and gate.
The parts of the hinge are so formed that they can be put together when detached from the post; but they are held firmly in positionwhen attached, and work with more steadiness than in a hinge where the pin extends in only one direction from the shank. The upper lip B prevents the gate from being thrown off its hinges by cattle or mischievous persons.
I claim as my invention- The hinge for gates, doors, Svc., having the projections B and B2, and the double-ended pivotpin F, resting in sockets in the projections, all arranged and combined substantially as set forth.V
In testimony of which invention I have hereunto set my hand.
Witnesses: PASCAL l?. CHILD.
