Description
J. G. BAUMGARTNER.
Gate Hanger.
No. 2315467. Patented Aug. 24,1880.
"w H /rl UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE;
JOHN G. BAUMGARTNER, OF FRASER, MIUHIGAN.
GATE-HANGER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 231,467, dated August 24, 1880.
Application filed October 9, 1879.
To all whom it may concern Be it knownthat I, JOHN C. BAUMGARTNER, of Fraser, in the county of Macomb and State of Michigan, have invented an Improvement in Gate-Hangings, of which the following is a specification.
The nature of this invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in the construction of a device for hanging farm-gates, and upon which the gate can be slid back and turned so as to partially or entirely disclose the gate-opening.
The invention consists in the peculiar construction and arrangement of the various parts, all as more fully hereinafter set forth.
Figure l is a perspective view of a gate with my invention attached. Fig. 2 is an enlarged perspective of the two members of my improvement.
In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, A represents an ordinary farm-gate, near the rear end of which are erected the posts B B, and between which the gate slides. About the center of the lengths of the posts B, Isecure a girt, b, upon the top of which I secure the cast-iron block (3, which is provided with an upwardly-projecting pin, 0. The cast-iron block 0 is provided with a recess, It, running longitudinally through itfrom end to end, and projecting ears on m on each side and extending below the recess to grasp and securely hold the block 0 on the crosspiece I).
The block 0 may be driven on the cross-piece b, the latter being made slightly wider than the block, and the block may also be further secured to the cross-piece I) by nails or screws passing through the holes at and into the crosspiece. By this construction the cross-bar is not weakened by the boring of a hole to receive the pivotal pin, as in a construction hereinafter disclaimed.
D is the other member of my hanger, which is recessed, as at (I, within which recess is properly journaled a wheel, E, upon which one of the longitudinal bars of the gate rests, as shown, said block D being slipped over the pin 0 of the block 0.
By this manner of hanging the gate can be run back, so as to disclose but half of the opening, or it can be swung around, so as to disclose the entire thereof.
I am aware of the patents to Fairchild 8t Sadler of June 4, 1867, and the patent to Spoor of November 20, 1866, and disclaim the inventions shown therein,as I believe my construction, combination, and arrangement of parts to differ materially from those shown in such patents, which difi'ercnces constitute a more convenient and durable gate-hanging.
I am aware that a pin inserted in a hole in a cross-bar connecting two posts on opposite sides of a gate and opposite each other, the upper end of said pin entering a recess in a hanger carrying a roller supporting the gate, as shown in Letters Patent granted to S. Spoor, dated November 20, 1866, N 0. 59,930, has heretofore been employed, and I therefore lay no claim to such invention; and I am also aware of the patent for a gate granted to B. H. Fairchild and E. Sadler, dated June 4, 1867, No. 65,359, and I therefore lay no claim to such invention, in which no cross-bar connecting the posts is employed, as in my invention, and in which the hanger is liable to be torn from the post to which it is attached by the weight of the gate it supports, Whereas in my constructi on the weight of the gate tends to fasten the hanger more securely to the cross-bar.
What I claim as my invention is In combination with a gate adapted to be half-opened longitudinally and then swung laterally in either direction, the posts B B, cross-bar Z), block G, having the longitudinal recess h, ears m m, and pin 0, and the cap I), provided with the jaws 0 0, recess d, central orifice, s, and roller E,journaled in saidjaws, the whole arranged and constructed substantially as described, and for the purpose set forth.
JOHN G. BAUMGARTNER.
