IMPROVEMENT IN GATE-HINGE S.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 152,7] 4, dated June 30, 1874; application filed June 6, 1874.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM S. WRITING, J12, of Seymour, New Haven county, Connecticut, have invented a new and Improved Gate-Hinge, of which the following is a specification:
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents a side elevation. of my improved gate-hinge, and Fig. 2 a top view of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
My invention relates to an improved gate hinge, by which the gate may be readily swung to either side without difficulty, and closed or shut by its own weight. The invention consists of a supporting bracket or plate fastened to the gate-post, and provided with curved V or wing-shaped slot for guiding the pintle of the bracket-plate of the gate, and preventing the gate from getting out of place. The pintle-plate swings byside recesses around fixed pins of the supporting-plate.
In the drawing, A represents the supporting-bracket, which is firmly secured or otherwise attached to the gate-post or fence. The horizontal projecting plate of the same is arranged with a Vshaped slot, a. which extends from the center line, with symmetricallycurved parts, to both sides of the plate. The horizontal, bracket-plate A is furthermore cast or otherwise provided with strong vertical guide-pins b, forming the centers of the curved parts of slot at. A second horizontal plate, B,
which is attached by its vertical part B to the gate, slides on the supporting-plate by a central downward-extending pintle, (I, which is retained in slot at by a loose washer, e, and loose pin f, or otherwise applied to the pintle at the under side of plate A. The plate B is also provided at both sides with semicircular recesses 1), corresponding with the guidepins 1).
hen the gate is in closed position, the pintle is in the vertex of the slot, and both recesses are in contact with the guide-pins.
By swinging the gate to either side, the side recesses and pintle swing around the corresponding and slotted part until the extreme limit of motion. is obtained. The bracketplates form thereby a strong support for the gate, and allow the opening of the same in either direction, the gate closing by its own weight.
Having thus described in yin vention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent As an improvement in gate-hinges, the supporting bracket plate A, with V slot and guidepins, in combination with the sliding plate B, having center pintle and side recesses for swinging readily thereon in either direction, substantially as specified.
