O- C- KINNEY. NOISELESS SWING SUPPORT.
APPLICATION FILED NOV. 1|, 1916.
1,285,227 Pumited Nov. 19, 1918.
WITNESSES.
ATTOR/VEX UNITED STATES PATENT onerous l OTTO c. KINivEY, or INDIANAPOLIS, iNDIANA.
NOISELESS SWING-SUPPORT;
To ali e whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, O'r'ro C. KINNEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Noiseless Swing-Support, of which the followingis a specification, reference;
being had to the accompanying drawings and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
This invention relates to appliances for supporting swings of various types, orhammocks, the invention having reference more particularly to supporters for the suspension chains of porch swings.
An object of the invention is to provide improved means for supporting cables or chains in such manner as to permit them to swing nearly or quite noiselessly and without requiring frequent lubrication. Another object is to provide improved means for supporting porch swings so that the suspension chains of the swing seat shall not cause the disagreeable noises common to the ordinary porch swing because of lack of lubrication and rusting 0f the iron chainsfound to be u the most desirable for the purpose designed.
With the above-mentioned and other objects in view the invention consists in an improved hanger having an anti-friction bearing and constructed in a novel manner, the invention consisting also further in the parts and combinations and, arrangements of parts as hereinafter particularly described and further defined in the accompanying claim.
Referring to the drawings,-Figure 1 is a side elevation of the improved hanger represented as being attached to an overhead support andsupporting a chain so that.
the chain may swing pivotally under the over-head support; Fig. 2 is a section of the hanger on the line II-II on Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a front plan of the stationary part of the improved hanger; Fig. 4 is a central section of. the complete hanger taken on a plane at right angles to the plane of the line 11-11; Fig. 5 is a sectional plan of the movable part of the hanger inverted; and Fig 6 is.
a section of the stationary part of the hanger slightly modified.
Similar reference characters on the differ ent figures of the drawings indicate like elements or features of construction herein referred to.
On the drawings the numeral 1 indicates Specification of Letters Patent.
.a stationary part which comprises a base portion 2 having holes 3 and 4 and preferably also other holes 5 and 6, to receive securing screws 7 and 8 whereby the base portion of the part is rigidly secured to the underside of the" over-head support. The base portion has two ears 9 and 10 thereon to which a suitable bearing member is secured. Preferably a bearing member 11 is rigidly secured between the ears by means of a rivet 12, and the normal upper portion of the member which is between the cars is provided with a circmnferentially extending track groove 13 in which a bear ing ball 14 is supported. As shown the track groove extends continuously around the bearing member, being thus cheaply and conveniently produced.
Patented Nov. 19, 1918; Application filed November 11, 1916. Serial no. 130,898. r
The movable part. of the hanger com- I prises a main suspension portion 15 from which extends a supporting crook .16 that is adapted to restor to roll upon the bearing ball, a beak portion 17 extending from the portion 16 so as to be approximately parallel to the portion 15 and with the latter serving to guard against accidental dislodgment of the movable part from the.
bearing member. The portion 16- has a track groove 18 thereon to receive the uppermost portion of the bearing ball. The movable part of the hanger has a hook formed as a crook 19 extending from the main portion 15 and a curved beak 20 extendingfrom the crook 19, the hook being adapted to support a link 21 of a chainor other device whereby. an article may be swingingly supported. 7
In some cases a bearing member 22 is rigidly secured between the ears of the staporch swing of the popular type. The movable part of the hanger is supported solely hr the bearing ball and normally is guided by the loall and the track grooves the fore rubbing contact that tends to produce disagreeable noises is obviated and the necessity for lubrication avoided.
Having thus described the invention, What is claimed as new is A hanger appliance coingrising a stationary part having; two depending ears, a hearing member secured between the ears, a
movable part comprising a carrying hook having a a supporting crook adapted to loosely embrace the bearing member, the 111- ner side of the crook having a guide groove Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the fiommissioner of Patents,
Washington, D. E.
