y construction, which efiiclently counter-balances the door.
A further object of the invention is to provide a hinge construction of economical manufacture which provides for a minimum clearance between the front panel and the lower endrof the door. l i
A further object of the invention is to provide a hinge construction for the doors of` ranges of the iiush front construction type, in which hinges and hinge pins willsbe entirely concealed when the doors are closed.
Another object of the invention is to provide adjustable fastening means for securing the hinge brackets and oven door liner in place.
With the above and other objects in view which willappear as the description proceeds,A this invention resides in novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts substantially as hereinafter described and more particularly deiined by the appeneded claims, it being understood that such changes in the precise embodiment of the herein disclosed invention may be made as come' within the scope of the claims,
in the accompanying drawings: l
Figure l is a rearvview of the door with the liner member partly broken away to show the hinge connection; I
Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary section through the door showing the hingein detail, i
' one of the fastening screws and washers being shown in exploded relation to the other assembled parts;
Figure 3 is a detail fragmentary view of a lower corner ofthe door;
Figure 4 is a vertical longitudinal section through a rangeembodying the present invention and showing the door closed; and
Figure 5 is a similar view broken away but showing the door open.
Referring tothe drawings for a more-detailed will present a flush or unbroken front. The door D of conventional construction, comprises a flanged body or front member 4 and an inner flanged liner member 5, the latter having forwardly bent ilanges 6, preferably seating snugly within rearwardly extending flanges l, on the front member il, however these liners occasionally fit rather loosely due to imperfections and faulty manufacture. The means for fastening the two portions to the door together will now be described.
A pair of reinforcing angle members B, substantially of L-shape cross section and arranged adjacent each side ofthe door, are secured to the liner member 5 by headed bolts or screws d which pass loosely through enlarged openings: lll in the liner and thence threadedly engage openings ll in the iianges l2 of the angle members. The other or forwardly extending anges i3 of these reinforcing members engage the inner face of body or front of the door and the liner rests upon ianges l2. Preferably, the usual insulation material, not shown, may cushion the contact between these parts. Substantially U- shaped clips 3D, preferably one at each corner of the door, have feet portions 3l welded to the inner face of the body 4 of the door D by means of headed bolts or screws 32, passing loosely through enlarged openings 33, in the liner for threaded engagement with openings 36 in the clips 3G. The door is thus additionally braced and the assembly of the liner 5 is greatly facilitated due' to the fact that the latter is capable of some slight adjustment, before the screws 9 and 32 have been tightened, and because the screws 32 will readily find the openings 33 and 34 even though the latter are considerably out of Ytrue alinement with each other. The reinforcing members also provi-de means for adjustably attaching a pair of hinges l to the door.
The door hinges lll are formed with straight portions or arms l5 which extend through slots l'l in the liner and are secured to the flanges I3 offthe anglemember 8, by means of bolts i8. These arms l5 terminate at their outer ends in Curved bracket portions i6 which in turn are formed with apertured ears I9 extending toward and substantially in axial alinement with the straight arms l5. The ears i9 are journaled on aligned studs or pivot pins 20 projecting inwardly towards each other from opposite sides of the upper end of the false front decorative panel 3. It is important to note here that the axis of the pins 20 i's considerably in advance of the common central longitudinal axis of panel 3 and door D, thus permitting the door to swing outwardly and downwardly in a rwide curve. This permits of the door being mounted inthe door opening 2|, of the frame I, with the face thereof flush with the face of false panel 3, and with the lower end of the door very close to the adjacent top edge of the panel, as distinguished from a construction wherein the axis of the pivot pins is aligned with or to the rear of the longitudinal axis of the door D and frame panel 3. By reducing the clearance between the door and false panel the space 22 is practically eliminated and V a much better seal is effected as well as greatly enhancing the appearance of the stove.
vThe door D is normally held closed and its movements counter-balanced by means of a spring 23, connected at one end to a wing nut 24 extending through the back wall 25 of the stove, and at its opposite end connected to the rear extremity of a cable or chain 26. This cable passes around a pulley 21, mounted on a bracket 28, suitably supported by the lower end of front frame I, and is secured at its forward end to an apertured ear 29 formed on the curved bracket portion I6 of one of the hinge brackets. If desirable this counter-balancing mechanism is provided 'at both sides of the range.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
l. In a `stove having a front frame formed with a door opening, a door for said opening, a false front panel for covering the frame beneath the door, said door and panel being substantially coextensive in thickness and in substantial abutting relation at their respective lower and upper ends, hinge brackets connected to the door at oney end and having a curved portion at the other end thereof, said curved part extending into said panel and being concealed thereby, and means for hinging said curved portions to the upper end of said panel forward of the longitudinal axis of said panel, whereby the lower end of said door will be rocked forwardly and downwardly in a wide curve when manually' opened.
2. In a stove having a front frame formed with a door opening, a door for said opening, a false front panel for covering a portion of the frame beneath the door, said door and panel being substantially coextensive in thickness and having substantially flush front faces, hinge brackets having straight portions connected to said door and curved portions having hinge connections with the upper end of said panel, the axis of said hinge connections being between the front plane of said panel and door and the longitudinal axis of said door and panel.
