This invention relates toimprovements in monorail supporting arrangements,and aims to provide a simplemeans for supportinga plurality of monorails usually arranged diagonally one above the other. t
P Some of the objects of the invention are I to provide a monorail supporting arrangement: wherein a plurality of monorails are carried by one bracket in which provisionis made for varying the relative heights of the.
diagonally spaced rails with regardito one another; whereinthe bracket is reinforced by a pivotally arranged brace rodso that the inclination of the brace may be varied relative to thebracket; wherein a plurality of supports depend from the bracket each of which is adapted to receive a fastening means which also'passes through a rail coupling so that two adjacent'ends of lengths of mon'oe 2O rail may also be held in other by each support. a a v With theseand other objects and advanalignment with each tages in View, which will-become apparent asthe specification proceeds, the invention is hereinafter more fully described with the aid of the accompanyingdrawings, in which Figure 1 illustrates a plurality of Inonorails supported indiagonal relation to one another by thebrackets. a
Figure 2 is an enlarged side, view of a bracket showing the rails in section.
Figure 3 is an enlarged inverted plan showing the ends of two sections of rail, the coupli g member, and the supporting bolt in section.
Figure i is a'section. on the line H of Figure 3. V a
Figure 5 isan enlarged perspective view of a coupling, and a Figure 6 shows a split couplingv' employed at the end of a monorail where no'railjoint' is to be made.
, The primary purpose of this monorail sup porting system is to provide an arrangement suitable for use in front of telephone switchboards, which are usually built upofa series of vertical panels 1 and 1 where it is some times found necessary to utilize additional panel space for the insertion of additional plug connections The bracket 2, which is generally upwardly and outwardly inclined, is fastened to one panel 1 as by screws 3 and has a pivotal socket 4L atrits outer end. A mounting 5 is attached to the face of another panel 1 andcarries a' pivotal socket 6. A brace rod '1 extends between the sockets 4 and 6 and is held at its extremities in the sockets as by set screws 8,- The distance be tween the panels 1 and 1 to which thebracket 2 and mounting 5 are secured,'may then be varied by merely removingflthe rod 7 and substituting another of a different length. Provision is thus made for altering the heights of either or bothof the parts 2 and 5 by removing the panels 1 and 1 to which they are' -att'ached andreplacing them atklife ferent elevations,vorldiflerent relative elevations. The latter being indicatedin Figure 2where the mounting 5 is shown also in a:
Vwards. Held in each pocket 9, as by a set screw '10 sodas to be permitted vertical ad- 'justment, and depending therefrom is asupport 11 which has a tapped hole 12 in its underside. Towards the extremities ofthe mon orail lengths 25, which are generally made of T-section, and through the lateral-web 25?, of the latter, holes 15 are provided; and in the ends of the lateralw'ebs semi-circular openings 16 are formed. Thecoupling members 17, which are U-shaped, have apertures 18 therethrough which register with the rail holes 15; and 19 denotes bolts which extend through therholes 15 and apertures 18 and a hold the rail, ends together. v
Substantially centrally of the length ofthe coupling members 17 other'aperture s 20 are formed therethrough opposite which the flexed portions of the members are cut away Screws 21 pass through the apertures 20 and through the'two semi-circular openings 16 in the adjacent ends of the lateral rail web 25 and are in threaded engagement with'the holes112in the lower ends of the supports 11.
In this way the adjacent ends of the rail lengths are so supported that the coupling members are reinforced, and again less space along the lateral webs 25 is occupied than would be utilized it separately spaced supportsand coupling were employed, so that a greater amount of space along the lateral webs may be devoted'to other purposes.
The modified construction of the coupling member l'Zfl-shown in Figureb, is employed at the ends of monorails. In that case the bolts 19 merely hold .the short form'of coupling to the end of a web 25 so that the rail end may be supportedthrough'the coupling, and the screw 21 which passes through the apertures in the member 17 and also through the semi-circular opening 16 in the end of the rail web extends into one of the tapped holes 12 in the manner already described. I
While in the foregoing the preferred em-' bodiment otthe invention has been described and shown itis understood that the construction is. susceptible to such modifications as falljwithin the scope of the claims.
