DOOR HANGER.

SAMUEL IDE, or MEDINA, NEW YORK.
DOOR-HANGER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 250,252, dated November 29, 1881.
Application filed October 3,1881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known thatI, SAMUEL IDE,of Medina, Orleans county, New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Door- Hangers; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a side elevation of the hanger and a cross-section of the rail, showing my improvement. Figs. 2 and 3 are diagrams, respectively in elevation and plan, showing different positions of the roller in adapting itself to place on the track as it runs along. Fig. 4 is a plan view of a portion ofthe rail or track. Fig. 5 is an elevation of the dividers located between the sections of the rail. Fig. 6 is a modification of Fig. 5.
My improvement relates to sliding doorhangers in which a roller runs on a rail or track, applicable especially to barn and other heavy doors.
The invention consists of a rail or track made in two sections, one of which is fast to its support, the other adjustable out and in by means of dividers located between the sections, and the combination therewith of a roller having aflange beveled on both sides, resting in the slot of the rail, whereby said roller can adapt itself to various positions in running without cramping or binding, all as hereinafter described.
In the drawings,A represents a stationary bar, secured by screws a a to a stationary support, B; and 0 represents a movable or adjustable bar, secured by the same screws, but havin g dividers b 1) between it and the stationary bar, leaving thereby an open slot, 0, extending the whole length of the bars, as shown in the plan view, Fig. 4. These bars constitute the rail or track, and the flange of the roller runs between the bars and in the slot, by which means the roller is kept in position. The bars are preferably made of wood. The dividers b are made of metal, preferably of the hook form shown in Fig. 5, and are hung upon the screws, their upper ends resting low enough in the slot to allow the flange of the roller to pass above them. The slot is made of a given width by placing one of the dividers on each screw. When it is desired to make the slot wider, two or more of the dividers are placed on a screw, and by this means, when the bars become warped or sprung, as they frequently do when subjected to weather, the outer bar, upon which the roller runs, can be straightened by simply placing more or less of the dividers in a given place, thereby preventing the bindin g of the roller.
D represents the hanger, to which the door E is attached, and G represents the roller. The hanger is of usual form, except that it has a stud,f, which rides under the rail, and. a spur, g, which enters the wood of the door and holds the same in place when the screws h h are inserted. The roller has a broad tread, 70, like a car-wheel, which runs on the outer bar, 0, and a flange, m, on the back side, which runs in the slot 0. This flange differs from ordinary flanges in rollers for this purpose, beingbeveled on both sides, so as to present a sharp edge in the center, as shown, being wedge-shaped in cross-section.
By the means above described the flange can run in the slot and allow the roller to adaptitself to any necessary position without cramping or binding, which it could notdo were theflange straight or beveled on only one-side. In Fig. 2 the roller is shown as thrown back, as it would beif the bottom of the door got loose and was thrown outward, the outer bevel of the flange in that case approximating the vertical side of the slot.
In Fig. 3 the roller is shown as turning out of the right or longitudinal line of the bars, as it would do in case there was a bend in the slot caused by warping of thebars. The bevel of the flange, retreating away from the vertical sides of the slot, allows these movements to be made where a straight flange would not.
In long use the bars are liable to warp and twist and to swell and shrink, and the beveled flange, while always retaining the roller in place, adapts itself to any inequality in the track. The broad track of the roller always retains its hold on the outer bar.
I am aware that doublebeveled flanges are well known on rollers, and I do not claim such, broadly.
I am also aware that a double iron track with a roller having a rabbet or groove on each side running on the track, and a central rim which runs between and fills the space between the tracks, is well known; but such is not the equivalent of my invention.
If desired, the dividers may be made of the closed form shown in Fig. 6, instead of the hook form before described.
I do not claim, broadly, a roller having a flange beveled on both sides; but
I claim- 1. In a door-hanger, the track or way consisting of the two independent and separate bars A O, the screws a a, and the dividers b b, interposed between the bars, whereby the outer bar, which supports the roller G, may be ad- 15 justed out or in to increase or lessen the width of the slot, or to straighten the bar, as herein shown and described.
2. In a door-hanger, the combination of the track consisting of the two independent bars A O, separated by dividers b b, and having a slot, 0, between them, and the hanger D and roller G, the latter running on the outer bar, and having a double-beveled flange, m, which runs in the slot between the bars and allows free movement to the roller, as herein shown and described.
In witness whereof I have hereunto signed my name in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
