DOORSTOP Filed Nov. '7, 1933 cf (free/w INVENTOR ATTORNE-Y Patented Dec. 18, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
1 Claim.
This invention relates to a door stop of the character to be carried by a door and to engage with the floor for holding the door in an'open position and has for the primary object the provision of a device of the above stated character which may be easily placed in operative or inoperative positions and is so constructed that it will parallel with one of the vertical faces of the door when in an inoperative position and will be self-sustaining against accidental movement from said inoperative position and when in an operative position will engage with the floor without danger of marring or injuring 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 my invention, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawing, in which Figure l is a fragmentary perspective view i1- lustrating a door with a stop applied thereto and in engagement with the floor and constructed in accordance with my invention.
Figure 2 is a side elevation illustrating the stop.
Figure 3 is a front elevation illustrating the same. a
Figure 4 is a side elevation illustrating the stop in an inoperative position.
Referring in detail to the drawing, the numeral 1 indicates an elongated plate forming the leg of the stop and is provided with an elongated slot 2 extending approximately one-half the length of the leg and terminating adjacent one end thereof and receives a pivot pin 3 of an attaching bracket 4. The bracket 4 consists of a plate 5 apertured to receive fasteners 6 for securing the plate to a door 7. Spaced ears 8 are integral with the plate 5 and are apertured to receive the pivot pin 3 with the leg 1 operating between said ears. The opposite end of the leg is apertured to receive a pivot pin 9 carried by spaced ears 10 of a foot 11. The foot 11 carries a pad 12. Formed on the leg 1 adjacent one end is a lug 13 adapted to engage one of the ears 8 of the bracket 4 when said pad of the foot 11 is brought into engagement with the floor, as shown in Figure 1, to prevent the leg from having slidable movement with rea spect to the bracket and consequently retain the door in an open position- The lug contacting with the bracket 4 relieves the pivot pin 3 of any strain when the device is supporting the door in an open position. 5
An offset 14 is formed on one edge of the'leg and provides a straight base 15 to the latter to engage with the vertical face of the plate 5 of the bracket 4 when theleg is positioned in an inoperative position, as shownin Figure 4. The leg 10 then parallels a vertical face of the door and is supported clear of the floor so that the door may be swung either into an open or closed position.
It is to be noted that the foot 11 when brought into contact with the floor, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, will be self-adjusting and that the pad 12 will engage the floor with suflicient friction to prevent movement of the door. The lug and foot 11 I are preferably constructed from a suitable metallic material and when supporting the door in an open position the pad 12 prevents the foot from contacting with the floor obviating any danger of marring or injuring the floor and when the device is placed 'in an inoperative position, as shown in Figure 4, the offset portion 14 engaging with the plate 5 of the bracket 4 maintains the leg as well as the foot away from the door obviating any danger of the device injuring or scratching the door.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my 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 my invention, as claimed. 35
Having describedthe invention, I claim:
A door stop comprising a bracket, a pivot pin carried by the bracket, an elongated leg having a slot receiving the pivot pin, a foot pivoted to the leg, a lug carried by the leg and extending laterally from one side of the leg to engage the under side of the bracket when the foot is wedged against the floor for positioning the pivot pin from either end of the slot, and an offset formed on the leg and having a straight edge to engage and rest against one face of the bracket when the leg is placed in an inoperative position for retaining the leg parallel with one of the vertical faces of the door and spaced from said face.
