HANDLE ATTACHMENT FOR HINGES.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 3, 1917,
Original application filed July 25, 1912, Serial No. 711,417. Divided and. this application filed. August 11,
T 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, VINC NT J. VVHrrNnr, a citizen of the United States, and resident of the city of Seattle, King county, Washington, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Handle Attachments for Hinges, of which the following is a specification.
lWIy invention relates to hinges and consists of a handle attachment for hinges, or an attachment which may be applied to. hinges of standard commercial constructions which is adapted for use as a handle.
The object of my invention is to provide such an attachment which may be combined with the standard hinges to be found on the market, whereby such hinges may be adapted for certain special uses in which it may be desirable that the hinges be provided with a handle.
The particular features of construction which constitute my invention will be hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the claims which terminate this specification.
In the accompanying drawings I have shown my invention in the form which is now preferred by me.
Figure 1 shows a handle attachment constructed in accordance with my invention, separately from the hinge to which it is applicable.
Fig. 2 shows such an attachment applied to a hinge of a standard construction.
Fig. 3 shows a slightly modified construction for the arm corresponding with the lower arm of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 shows a modified form of construction of the handle, in which the hinge is slightly modified to conform to a central attachment for the handle.
Fig. 5 shows my device attached to a window, the window casing being in section.
The type of hinge which I have used in the illustration of my invention, is an ordinary butt hinge, consisting of two plates 1 and 2, having their hinged edges cut to form extending tongues which are bent to form the pivot ears 4, through which pass the securing pintle or pivot pin 3. Such hinges as found on the market are made in standard sizes, and I make my handle attachment of dimensions to fit the desired standard sizes of hinges.
The handle attachment comprises a handle Serial No. 45,039.
bar, 5, which may be of whatever shape and slze as is thought most suitable and will best fit the hand. From this handle bar extends one or more arms, 6, two being shown inv Figs. 1 and 2 and one in Fig. 4t. This arm, or arms, terminate in ears 7, which form the pivot ends of the handle attachment. The opposed surfaces of the handle and of the leaf members of the hinge which surround the pintle are perpendicular to the axis of the pintle, whereby a free and unrestrained swinging action is secured between the handle and the hinge and between the parts of the hinge.
In the form of construction shown in Figs. 1. and 2, the lower arm has its ear 7 provided with a centrally or inwardly projecting pin 8, of a size to properly fit the pintle-receiving hole in a pivot ear of the hinge. Such pin 8 should be of less length than the width of the hinge car into which it enters, or else longer than the width of this ear, so that either the hinge pintle 3 or the pin 8 will overlap the line between this hinge ear and the adjoining one of the other half of the hinge.
The other arm 6 has its ear 7 perforated to receive the regular hinge pintle 8. The two arms 6 are spaced apart so as to snugly fit over the hinge at its pivot. Such a handle necessitates no changes in the standard hinge. It may be applied to a hinge either before or after the hinge has been put in place.
Instead of having the short fixed pivot pin 8, both ears 7 may be perforated, as is shown in Fig. 3, and the hinge pintle made long enough to pass through both ears 7 and the ears of the hinge.
In Fig. 4 I have shown a modification in which the handle bar 50 has but one arm and one pivot ear 70, this being placed at the center of the hinge, the center ear of the hinge being cut away to accommodate it. This form requires modification of the hinge in this respect only.
One of the uses for which this attachment is intended, is for application to the hinges of windows as shown in Fig. 5 which windows employ a plurality of sashes 12, as by pins sliding in grooves 11 which are provided with a sliding hinged connection with the casing, the other edges of the sash being hinged to each other so as to be operated together. Such a construction is shown in my application for Patent No. 711,4:17 filed July 25, 1912, of Which this application is a division.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A handle attachment for hinges comprising a handle bar and means for pivotally securing it to the pivot axis of a hinge, the bearing surfaces of said handle upon the hinge being perpendicular to the pivot axis.
2. A handle attachment for hinges comprising a handle bar having a perforated arm adapted to be journaled upon the hinge pintle, and having bearing surfaces perpendicular to the axis of said perforation.
3. A handle attachment for hinges comprising a handle bar having an arm pro vided at the end farthest from the handle with a hole adapted to receive the pintle of a hinge, the bearing surfaces of said arm being perpendicular to theaxis of the hole.
4. A handle attachment for hinges comprising a handle bar having arms adapted to span the hinge at its pivot, and means for pivoting said arms upon the hinge pivot.
5. A handle attachment for hinges comprising a handle bar provided With arms adapted to span the hinge at its pivot, one of said arms having a short fixed pivot pin adapted to enter the pivot ear of one part of the hinge, the other arm being perforated to receive the hinge pintle.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature this 1 day of August VINCENT J. W'HITNEY.
