JAMES G. LAIRD, `OF ONTARIO TOWNSHIP, KNOX COUNTY, ILLINOIS.
GATE-HANGER.
SPECIFICATION formngpart of Letters Patent No. 229,148, dated `June 22, 1880.
`Application filed August 19, 1879.
To all whom t mayooncem:
VBe it known that I, JAMES G. LAIRD, of Ontario Township, in the county of Knox and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gate-Hangers; andI do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a side elevation ot' a gate hung with my improved hanger. Fig. 2 is a sectional View of the gate in the line x a' and a side elevation of the hanger. Fig. 3 is a 1nodi fication, hereinafter referred to. Fig. 4 is a sectional view of the gate-post and hangerin the line y y in Fig. 1.
This invention relates to gates which are slid back about one-half their length and then` swung round to open them, and to that class of hangers for such gates which are journaled to one of the gate-posts and provided with a pulley on which the gate may be slid back or forward with ease.
The object of my invention is to furnish a,
hanger which may be readily and easily attached securely to the post, a hanger which is provided with an extension to embrace one or moregate-bars additional to the one by which the gate is suspended, and which is provided with alatch by which the gate may be secured in a closed position.
The invention consists, first, in improve ments in the bearingplates, adapting them to be readily and securely attached to the gatepost 5 second,in a hangerjournaled to the gatepost Iand having one or both of its ends extended to form a brace to prevent the gate being pushed by animals away from the post at its upper or lower sides; third, in a catch pivoted to the hanger and adapted to engage with the gate to hold it in a closed position.
Referring to the drawings by letters, letter A represents a gate, and B B posts, which parts may be of the ordinary construction of this class of gates. O is the bearing-plate, formed of two similar plates, C C', their outer ends forming a journal-bearing, c, and theirother ends pierced with holes c', while their central portions are pierced each with a hole, d.
In attaching the plates C to the post B headless bolt-s b are first driven in the post.
The plates O are then placed so that the bolts b enter the holes c', the bolts Ifbeing placed so that the plates O may be drawn together by the bolt D where it passes through the holes d, thus securing the bearing C very firmly in place on the post, as is desirable in this class of gates.
E is the hanger proper, and has a rounded portion, e, which is'placed in the bearings cot' the plates C before the plates G are attached to the post, and is the journal on which the hanger E rotates in swinging the gate. The upper portion of the hanger E is formed into two limbs, e e', between the lower ends of which a pulley, F, is journaled.
The central part of each limb c may be cut away to produce lightness of material, as shown at Fig. l of the drawings.
G is a latch, pivoted at one end between the upper ends of the limbs e. The lower end of the hanger E is formed into two limbs, c e.
The gate is placed with one of its rails, a, between lthe limbs e', and resting on the pulley F, and with the rail a between the upper ends of the limbs e', and with the rail a, which is first below the rail a', between the limbs c", as shown at Figs. l and 2 of the drawings.
In opening the gate it is slid back on the4 pulley F, which supports its weight, and then swung round, as hereinbefore described.
When the gate is closed it maybe held by dropping the latch G into a notch, a", in the upper rail of the gate, as shown at Fig. 1 of the drawings. The latch G may be turned back to permit opening the gate, as shown by dotted lines at same figure.
The extended limbs e, embracing the bar of the gate below the bar which rests on the pulley F, will prevent swine or other animals pushing the lower part of the gate away from the post B so that they can pass through. It will be seen, however, that the limb e next the post B may be dispensed with. The upper limbs, c', also serve as braces to hold the gate, but they are not so important, and may IOO be merely long enough to embrace the rail a, which rests on the pulley F, as shown by the modification at Fig. 3 of the drawings.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure 5 by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a gate-hanger, the bearing-plates C', having their outer ends extended so as to form a journal-bearingf'or the journal cof the hanger E,land adapted t0 be secured to post B by 1o bolts b and screw-bolts D, substantially as described, and for the purpose specified.
2. The hanger E, constructed substantially as described, provided with a removable pulley, F, and having` the open extension-arms e 15 above and the open extension-arms e" below two witnesses.
JAMES Gr. LAIRD.
