Jan. 23, (:[RlACY ET AL DOOR HOLDER Filed April 21, 1933 INVENTOR ATTORN EY Patented Jan. 23, 1934 STATES DOOR HOLDER Edward Ciriacy and Herold Bradley, Aliquippa, Pa.
Application April 21, 1933. Serial No. 667,288
1 Claim.
This invention relates to door holders and has for the primary object, the provision of a device of the above stated character which is especially adapted for propping a door in an open position and is so constructed to operate on hard or soft surfaces and when not in use may be supported in an elevated position parallel with the door so as not to interfere with the opening or closing of the latter.
With these and other objects in view this invention consists in certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
For a complete understanding of our invention, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a front elevation illustrating a door holder constructed in accordance with our 2.9 invention.
Figure 2 is a side elevation illustrating the same applied to a door and in an operative position.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary side elevation showing the device positioned for action on a soft surface.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary plan view partly in section illustrating the release for the leg of the holder.
5; Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on the line 5-5 of Figure 3.
Figure 6 is a detail sectional view illustrating the release in a position for actuation to free the leg from an inoperative position.
Referring in detail to the drawing, the numeral 1 indicates a bracket secured to a door 2 by screws or like fasteners 3. The bracket 1 is constructed of channel irons providing parallel spaced plates l to which is hinged a leg 5 and the latter is of channel iron construction and includes sections 6 and 7, one fitting within the other and, adjustably connected whereby the length of the leg may be varied. A shoe 8 is pivoted to the free end of the leg 5 and is of .1: channel iron construction to form side plates between which the free end of the leg fits. A
non-skid plate 9 is carried by the shoe to engage a hard surface, as shown in Figure 2. With the leg and shoe in the position shown in Figure 2, the door will be held in an open position. Prongs or tines 10 are carried by one end of the shoe and when the device is used upon a soft surface, the shoe may be positioned, as shown 0 in Figure 3, with the prongs biting into the surface. The plates of the shoe are provided with indentations to receive projections 11 on the leg when the shoe is positioned, as shown in Figure 3, to prevent accidental pivotal movement of 5 the shoe with respect to the leg.
A spring clip 12 is carried by the upper end of the bracket 1 and includes resilient arms 13 for the purpose of engaging an opening 14 on the leg when the latter is swung upwardly into 7 a vertical position. The leg in the last-named position will permit the door to be readily swung into open or closed position.
A shaft 15 is journaled to the bracket adjacent the clip 12 and has a handle 16 and also a projection 17 movable between the arms 13 of the clip 12 when the leg is swung upwardly into a vertical position. The projection 17 when disposed within the clip positions the handle 16 outwardly of the door and in a position to be grasped and moved downwardly to free the projection 14 from the clip, releasing the leg so that it may gravitate into engagement with the ground for propping the door in an open position.
While we have shown and described the preferred embodiment of our invention, it will be understood that minor changes in construction, combination and arrangement of parts may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of our invention, as claimed.
Having described the invention, we claim:
A door holder comprising a bracket secured to a door, an adjustable leg pivoted to the bracket, a shoe pivoted to the leg, a non-skid element secured to the shoe for engagement with g5 a hard surface, prongs on the shoe to engage a soft surface when said shoe is positioned in substantially parallelism with the leg, and means for releasably holding the shoe in the last-named position.
