Application led @atenei-.24,
My invention relates to supports for structures having relative movement of parts an aims to provide novel means for supporting such structures to give free movement in a number of directions and to take care' 0i such conditions as expansion and contractlon.
My invention isillustrated in the accompanying drawing in which Figure 1 shows diagrammatically a cylindrical structure with a manner of placing the supports. Figure 2 is a section on line 2 2, Figure 1; Figure 3 is a section on line 3 3, Figure 1 Figure d shows a ditl'erent arrangement oi supports; Figure 5 shows a modified construction or movable support; Figure 6 shows a modilied construction of bracket support; and Figf? shows one embodiment of a supporting part.
Reference character a designates the structure to be supported which may, for example, be a cylindrical steam storerY with heini-spherical ends subject to varying temperature and expansion and contraction in marked degree. The storer is supported b a xed su port on onev side, by 'movab e supports on the 'same side and by movable sup orts c and e on the opposite side.- 'lhe xe support b may be of any desired construction. lt is shown (Figure 2) as a section of beam g h and secured to bracket 10. Support 0 which is transversely opposite support b is made of two parts g and 11, between which are arranged rollers 12 permltting movement as shown by the arrow heads, the rollers arranged with their axes extending longitudinally of the cylindrical structure a. Support al (Figure 3) which is arranged longitudinally withTespect to-support Z; and the structure a comprises two parts like support c with rollers between them but with the rollers arranged at right angles to those or supp/ort c, that is with their axes transversely to the cylindrical structure so as to permit longitudinal expansion and contraction of the structure. Support e, placed diagonally `from xed support Z) with respect to the structure a, is formed with two parts with a vertical pin arranged between them., arranged to permit expansion and contraction of structure a in both transverse and, longitudinal direction.
@ne manner of making support e is shown in Figure 7. llt comprises a vertical pin mounted, on foundation 1923, Serial No. 670,540, and in Sweden October 25, 1922.
having somewhat rounded ends. The ends d rest in sockets 16 and 17. It may be said that the pin swings about the lower stationary member in .which socket 17 is as a. pivot. It is a sort of pendulum though adapted to swing in all directions about its pivot. By properly forming the ends of the pin with respect to the socket surfaces or the various surfaces with respect to each other, the arrangement can be made such that, while movement in any horizontal direction is permitted, there is no rise or fall' ot the supported member in its movement.
Brackets 1() are riveted to the storer and are made to embrace a portion of the circumference of the'storer, symmetrically or nearly so about the horizontal diameter of the storer, the brackets being arranged with- Seats 14 for support arranged somewhat outside the cylinder so that the supporting pressure is exerted somewhat and in the extension of the horizontal diameter thereof. By this arrangement, the reaction orces give rise to a moment tending Ato counteract the distortion which is apt to be produced by shearing stresses and reaction torces.
Any number of su ports d ande may be used as indicated in igure 1.
Figure 4 shows a modification wherein supports b and c are placed at one end ot the structure a. Any number of dierent arrangements are obviously possible.
Figure 5 shows a modification of support e wherein two sets of rollers i with their axes at right angles have a plate j between them and are arran ed between foundation it and seat 14. movement in all directions.v y Figure 6 shows a modiied term of bracket 10 comprising an angle section k, an intermediate plate m and. a plate Z litted to the surface of cylindrical structure a.
' Various modiications are'possible within the spirit and scope of the invention whereoutside the Storer T is form also permits.
means for a structure comformed ill@ support in a direction at an angle to that at which the second support is spaced from the fixed supportandcomprising a part adapted to be attached to the structure and means to permit the last-mentioned part to move toward or away from the iixed support and a fourthsupport spaced at an angle from the fixed support with respect to the second and third supports and comprising a part adapted to be attached to said structure and having movement in all directions with respect to said fixed support.
2. Supporting means for a structure extending in longitudinaly and transverse direction comprising a fixed support adjacent one side of the structure, a movable support on the same side of the structure permitting longitudinal movement of the structure, a second movable support on the opposite side of the structure transversely opposite to said ixed support permitting transverse movement of the structure and a fourth support arranged longitudinally of the second support and permitting movement of the Structure both longitudinally and transversely.
3. Supporting means :tor a structure extendingl in longitudinal and transverse direction comprising a fixed support adjacent one side of the structure, a second support on the same side of the structure comprising two parts with rolling members between them to permit longitudinal movement of the structure, a third support comprising two parts with rolling members between them and situated on the opposite side of the struct-ure transversely opposite the fixed support to permit transverse movement' of. the struct-ure and a fourth support arranged longitudinally of the third support and comprising two parts with a vertical'pin between them, said pin being arranged to permit movement of said structure both longitudinally and transversely.
4. Supporting means for a structure comprising a fixed support, movable supports and a support comprising two parts adapted to have relative movement and a vertically arranged pin extending between said parts and in contact with said parts so that the pin may swing about the one part-in any direction.
5. Supporting means for a structure having longitudinal and transverse extension neeaosa comprising a fixed support on one side of the structure, a second support on the same side of the structure comprising two parts and transversely placed rollers between the parts, a third support on the opposite side of the structure comprising two parts with longitudinally arranged rollers between the parts, and a fourth support comprising two parts and a movable vertical pin between said parts.
6. Mounting means for a horizontal cylindrical structure comprising strengthening members extending about a part of the circumference of the cylindrical structure substantially symmetric-ally about the horizontal diameter of the cylinder, seats on said members arranged outside the outermost part of the cylinder and supporting means on which said seats rest, said supporting means comprising a fixed support adjacent one side of the structure, a movable support on the same side of the structure permitting longitudinal movement of the structure, a second movable support on the opposite side of the structure transversely opposite to said tixe'd support permitting transverse movement of the structure and a fourth support arranged longitudinally of the second support and permitting movement of the structure both longitudinally and transversely.
7. Supporting means for a structure extending in longitudinal and transverse direction comprislng a ixed support adjacent one side of the structure, a plurality of additional supports on the same side of the structure, each comprising two parts with rolling members between -them to permit longitudinal expansion of the structure, a transverse movement support comprising two parts with rolling members between them and situated on the opposite side of the structure transversely opposite the fixed support to permit transverse movement of the structure and a plurality of -additional supports arranged longitudinally of the said transverse movemen-t support, each of the last mentioned plurality of supports comprising two parts with a vertical pin between them,
