TROLLEY-TRACK HANGER.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Dial', 28, 1922.
Application led' May 27, 1921. Serial No. 473,067.
To all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, HARRY R. BUTLER, a citizen of the Unitedv States, and a resident of Pelham Manor, in the county of Westchester land State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Trolley-Track Hangers; and I do. hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to animprovement in trolley track hangers, the object being to provide a hanger that can be applied to an I-beam track and adjusted to any position thereon and clamped thereto without drilling or otherwise cutting said beam, and it consists in the parts and combination of parts as will be more fully explained and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a View in end elevation of the track and partly in edge elevation and partly in section of the hanger and supporting` bracket for the latter, and Figure 2 is a view in side elevation of the same.
5 represents the track which is in the form of an I-beam, and 6 is a one piece malleable or steel casting having hook shaped ends 7. The hook shaped ends 7 as shown in Figure `l are oppositely disposed at the underside of the hanger to receive the opposite side edges of the upper fiangeof the I-beam, the space between the hooks and body of the hanger being of ample size to receive the upper flange of the beam, and permit of the free adjustment of the hanger on the beam. The hanger 6 is provided centrally with a threaded hole for the holding bolt. 8, the lower endof which is adapted to engage the .y upper surface of the top fla-nge of the I-beam 5 and clamp the holder to the beam, after of course the hanger has been adjusted to its proper position on the beam.
9 .is the supporting bracket which in the l present instance is V-shape, with a flattened apex, the latter having an opening through same for the passage of the bolt 8, which latter notonly clamps the hanger to the I-beam, but also secures the hanger to the bracket. The bolt opening through the hanger v9 is preferably not threaded and slightly larger than the bolt, andis clamped against the top surface of the hanger' 6 by the cheek or lock nut 10, the bolt 8 being sufficiently long to permit of a movement of the nut 10 thereon to'release the bolt so that the latter may be turned to engage or disengage the I-beam as shown.
In assembling the parts, the hanger 6 is applied at the end of thevI-beam and moved lengthwise the latter to its proper position. This may be done before the bracket or bolt Vare assembled on the hanger, or after as Aof the upper [lange of an I-beam and also provirfled, with a threaded hole, a threaded bolt'passing through said hole and adapted to be adjusted therein to engage the I-bearn and a bracket having connection with the bolt for supporting the hanger, the bolt being independent of the bracket and .adjustable therein.
'2. The combination of a hanger provided on its under side with oppositely disposed hook shaped ends to receive end support the top flange of an I-beam. and also provided with a threaded hole. a threaded bolt pass- .ing through said hole and adapted to engage said I-beam for clamping the hanger to the latter. a supporting bracket havimga hole for the bolt, and a nut onthe bolt for clamping the bracket to the hanger.
. In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
HARRY n. BUTLER.
