AsdiSclos'ed in the accompanying drawings,B denotes a box car of a. conventional L. Bisrior a I I open ngD 1's an'outside sliding doors of ty e and which isprovided with the entrance or door opening D. Associated with the any ordinary or preferred type.
'A' side wall "of the car B to one side of the 'openlng D has associated therewith a housing H, the end thereof iminediately 'adjacentto thedooropening I) being open but 1 "adapted to be closed by theswingi 'ig panel or wall 1, thefouter vertical marginal 'portion of said wall or panel 1' being hingedly connected as at 2 with the outer face of the housing H.
The top o'f the housingH is also open but adapted to be closed bythe swingingtop Waller panel 3, the outer marginal portion of said 'wall or panel 3 being hingedlyconnected' as at 4; to the outer face of the housing H. Thefcent'ral portion of the top wall or panel 3has hingedly connected therev with as at 5 a hasp 6' which coactsfwith an outstanding staple 7 carriedby the adjacent sidewall of the car whereby the top wall or panel 3 [maybe efiectively locked 'injclosed position. The top wall or panel 3 serves to prevent access of grain or other matterwith- 1n the housn'ig H and by having said Waller panel 3 hingedly'connected it can be readily adjusted into open position when it is ,desired to haveaccesswithin the upper poition of said housing H as forthe purposes of repair j I Arranged w thln the housing Hand extending lengthwise thereof and supported by the brackets 8 is a ltrack 9 upon which H are slidably mounted the hangers 10. for the. [inside door A; The hangers 1Ov are positionedwithin the housing H when the; door A is in eitherfope'n or closed position and the housing H and. the track 9 are of such length as to permit the doorfA'tovbe corm pletely contained within the housing H when the door A is in open position. When it is desired-to, lllOVedllleKlOOD A- into or out of the housing H the" wall or panel 1 is first swung. into open position and" after the desired adjustment of the door has been accomplished., the wallvorpanel l is returned to closed position and inalntaine'd in such position by thesliding bolt 11 of 'a conventional type.
In order that the door A m ayjhave free sliding movement, the lower marginal po1 tion thereof is slightly spaced from the bot-.
lZOlll or. floorof the car B and in order to close such spa'ceacross the entrance or door opening D, when the door A is in closed position, I provide the lower marginal portion of the door A, or more particularly that portion of the door which extends across the opening D, with the swinging flap or strip 12, said strip being shown in a raised position in Figure 4; in order to facilitate the travel of the door A within the housing H.
The outer vertical marginal portion of the door A is provided with an open recess or notch 14 which, when the door is in closed position receives an outstanding staple 15 carried by the jamb 16 of the opening D remote from the housing H. The outer vertical marginal portion of the door A carries a sliding bolt 17 of a conventional type which engages with said hasp 14 to maintain the door A in its closed position.
The outer portion of the door A or that portion which extends across the opening D when the door is in closed position, comprises an inwardly swinging section 18 which is hingedly connected as at 19 to the door A proper. When the section 18 is in its raised position it is maintained in such position by the sliding bolt 20 of a conventional type carried by the hinged marginal portion of the section 18 and which is engageable with a keeper 21 carried by the adjacent portion of the door A proper.
The inner marginal portion of the panel or wall 1 is cut away as at 22 to compensate for the thickness of the door A and particularly when said door is in closed position.
The outer wall of the housing H is provided at its lower marginal portion with a swinging panel or flap 23 normally maintained in closed position in a conventional manner by the sliding bolt 24 of any 0rdinary or preferred type. The panel or flap 23 provides means whereby access may be had within the lower portion of the housing H to sweep out therefrom grain or the like which may accumulate therein.
In the present embodiment of my invention the door A is disclosed as a type for use in connection with grain but it is to be understood that the door may be otherwise formed as the necessities of practice may prefer such as for use in connection with a stock car. v
From the foregoing description it is thought to be obvious that a sliding door constructed in accordance with my invention is particularly well adapted for use by reason of the convenience and facility with which it may be assembled and operated, and it will also be obvious that my invention is susceptible of some change and modification without departing from the principles and spirit thereof and forthis reason I do not wish to be understood as limiting myself to the precise arrangement and formation of the several parts herein shown in carrying out my invention in practice except as hereinafter claimed.
I claim 1. In combination with a wall provided with an entrance opening, a housing associated with said wall at one side of and adjacent to the entrace opening, the end of the housing adjacent to the opening being open, a sliding door for said opening, said door be ing of a length materially in excess of the width ofthe opening, an end portion of the door being arranged at all times within the housing, said portion of the door being provided with hangers at longitudinally spaced points, a trackway within the housing with which the hangers engage for supporting the door in its entirety for sliding movement into either open or closed position with respect to the entrance opening, said door when closed being entirely confined within the housing, the portion of the door extending across the entrance opening when the door is in closed position comprising a section adapted to swing in a direction away from the wall to open a portion of the entrance opening when the door is in closed position, and means. for holding said section against swinging movement.
