HANGER FOR ANTEPENDIUM Filed June 17, 1947 6 6 ZZ f5 i4 i Patented May 2, `195;()
2,505,913 minces ron ANTEP'ENnniM John E. ligali, Chicago, Ill., assifgiior to Deprato Statuary Company, Chicago, Ill., a corporation of Illinois .appiicanoniune 17, 1947, serial No. 755,058 1 claim. (c1. 24e- 251) This invention relates to improvements in a hanger for an antependium, and has for an object the provision of a hanger which is relatively simple and inexpensive in construction and which may readily be mounted on the underside of an altar table top.
Briefly, this invention comprises a channel member adapted to be secured in the recess provided in the underside of an altar table top. The inner end of a bracket is pivotally connected to the side walls of the channel member' ior movement from a collapsed position within the channel to an extended position at right angles to the channel member. The outer end ci the bracket is formed with a hook portion to receive and support a curtain rod which, in turn, is adapted to support an antependium.
t is an important object of this invention to provide a bracket which may be pivoted into the enclosure formed by the channel-shaped member to conceal the bracket from view when same is not employed to support an antependium.
lt is a further object of this invention to provide resilient means to yieldably resist pivotal movement of the hanger relative to the channel member, said hanger and said resilient means being formed and arranged to hold the hanger against accidental displacement from either its collapsed position or extended position.
This invention embodies other novel features, details of construction and arrangement of parts which are hereinafter set forth in the specification and claims, and illustrated in the accompanying drawing wherein:
Fig. l is a front elevational view illustrating a hanger for an antependium embodying features of this invention.
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view taken along the line 2-2 of Fig. l, the bracket being shown in its extended position and supporting an antependium.
Fig. 3 is a detail plan view illustrating the hanger with the antependiurn rod removed.
Fig. 4 is a sectional View taken along the line 4 4 of Fig. 3.
Referring now to the drawing for a better understanding of this invention, the hanger ccmprises a channel member 6 formed with ape tures 'l in its web 8. The channel member is adapted to be mounted in a recess 9 formed in the underside of an altar table top Il. A pair of screws l2 are inserted through the openings l for engagement in threaded openings provided in the altar table top. When the channel member t is mounted within its recess 9, the outer edges of 2 the side flanges I3 are adapted to be flush with the underside of the altar table top.
The inner end of a bracket It is journaled on a pivot pin I6 which is mounted at its ends in the flanges lS-ES of the channel member 5. The outer end of the bracket |13 is formed with a hook portion il to receive and support an antependium rod i3. rEhe rod i8 is preferably formed with annular grooves iii to receive the hook portion Il to prevent axial displacement of the rod relative to the bracket l.
The bracket lll is adapted to be pivoted from its collapsed position, illustrated in dotted outline in Fig. 4, to its extended position, illustrated in Figs. l, 2, 3 and 4. One end of a at spring 2l is secured to the web 8 of the channel member t by means of a rivet 22, and the other end of the spring is disposed to yieldably resist movement of the bracket i4 from either its collapsed position or its extended position. It will be noted that the inner end oi the bracket it is provided with a ilat surface 23 to be engaged by the free end of the spring 2l to yieldably resist pivotal movement of the bracket from its extended position. An antependium 24 is provided with hooks 26 at spaced intervals along its upper edge for detachable engagement with the rod it.
In the use of the hanger to support an antependium 2li, the brackets It are pivoted from their collapsed positions to their extended positions, the brackets being held against accidental displacement from their extended positions by the engagement of the springs 2l against the flat surfaces 23 formed on the inner ends of' the brackets. The rod IB and antependium 2t are then mounted upon the hook portions il of the brackets It, the hook portions l1 being disposed in the annular grooves i9 formed in the rod it. When the rod i8 is thus mounted upon the hook portions of the brackets lli, it Will be noted that the shoulders of the annular grooves lil engage against the sides of the brackets lil to prevent axial displacement of the rod i6 relative to the brackets. When the brackets it are not employed to support the antependium, they are moved to their collapsed position within their channel members 6 and are entirely concealed from view. While the channel members t, brackets lll, and rod I8 may be formed of any suitable material, they are preferably formed of bronze to insure a long life of service.
While this invention has been shown in but one form, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that it is not so limited but is susceptible of various changes and modliications without departing from the spirit and scope of the claimed invention.
I claim as my invention:
In a hanger for an antependium, a channel member of uniform transverse section, said channel member having side anges and a connecting web, a bracket formed of at material, one end of said bracket having a bearing aperture extending across the width thereof, a pivot pin mounted in said bearing aperture and having its ends connected to the side anges of said channel member, said bracket having a recess extending inwardly from its side edge to form a hook portion on the free end of the bracket, said bracket being pivotally movable from a collapsed position 15 posed to engage against and to yieldably resist pivotal movement of the bracket relative to said channel member, said bracket being formed at its pivot end with two at surfaces disposed at right angles for alternate engagement by the free end of said at resilient spring when the bracket is pivoted to its collapsed or extended positions.
