END STOP FOR TUBULAR BARN DOOR TRACKS Filed July l, 1948 lll/A Patented June 27, 1950 END STOP FOR TUBULAR BARN DOOR TRACKS Robert Gaye Ferris, Harvard, Ill., assignor to Statline Ine., Harvard, Ill., a corporation of.
Illinois Application July 1, 1948, `Serial No. 36,5118
, 6 Claims. 1
More particularly the invention relates to an end stop for tubular tracks and which is adapted for use with different types of supporting brackets.
It is the general object of the invention to from the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein:
Fig. 1 is a fragmentary side elevation of a tubular track together with its supporting bracket and a preferred form of the invention associated therewith;
Fig. 2 is a section taken approximately along the line 2 2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a section along the line 3--3 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the preferred form of the invention;
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary elevational view of the preferred form of the invention associated with a barn door track having an apron along the hanger slot;
Fig. 6 is a section along the line 6 6 of Fig. 5.
While I have shown in the drawing and will hereinafter describe in detail a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is to be understood that various modifications may occur to those skilled in the art Without departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
As shown in Figs. 1 to 3, a tubular track section l Il is supported at one end thereof by a bracket II. The bracket comprises an angle member I2 and a ribbed tubular member I3 the central rib of which provides an annular pocket, the angle member being suitable for attachment to a Wall or the like by means of a vertical leg thereof. The tubular member has an internal diameter permitting the track to pass therethrough with a snug t and has a slot I4 coinsiding with the slot I5 in the track. To secure the track section against rotation and endwise movement in the bracket I! the track section is provided with an end slot I6 adapted to interengage with a lug I'l which projects inwardly from the tubular member I3.
An end stop I 8 is herein shown inserted in the tubular member I3 of the bracket and with a (Cl. 1li- 94) 2 portion thereof extending between the tubular member I3 'and the end of the track as shown in Fig. 2. The end stop I8 as shown is a member formed from a strip of sheet metal and is generally U-shaped, having an end portion' I9 and a pair of 'curved leg portions 2l). The end portion I9 isy preferably flat as shown. The pore tions 2li are curved on a 'radius to lcorrespond with.y the curvature of the tubular track section I0 and its supporting bracket II. Adjacent. the end portion I9 the leg portions 2!) are offset outwardly at 2I so that the parts thereof imme-` diately adjacent the end are of a'reduced diameter itting Within the end portionA I 3 of the ribbed tubular member I3. This construction permits the end stop to be` snapped into place in the supporting bracketby pressing-the leg 4portions 28 toward each other' as they are in-f serted into `the end of the tubular member I3. As the end stop reaches the position shown in Fig. 2 the leg portions "expandinto the pocket formed by the'rib portion of thev member I3 as shown and permitfthe entry-of the'track section Ill and the interlocking thereof with the lug I'I. Preferably, the leg portions 20 are sufliciently long so that the free ends thereof reach the reduced portions I3 at the other side of the rib of the tubular member I 3 and thereby clamp the end stop against endWise movement.
As shown in Figs. 5 and 6, the end stop I8 is used in connection with a tubular track section 22 of the type having a. hanger slot 23 and a depending apron 24. This track section is supported by means of a bracket 25 which is secured thereto as by rivets 26 in a well-known manner. rlhis form of track is also adapted for mounting on a vertical wall such as 2l and is herein shown as secured thereto by attaching device 28.
The end stop I8 may readily be secured to the track 22 as shown in Figs. 5 and 6 by slipping the leg portions 20 over the end of the tubular track section and then securing the end stop to the track section by means of a spike 29 which passes through coinciding apertures 30 and 3| in the end stop and track section and into the wall 21.
The end stop in the form herein illustrated is of extremely simple construction and includes portions 'Ztl which are suiciently resilient to per- .mit it to be snapped into place when used with a supporting bracket of the type indicated at II. It may also be used Without alteration in connection with the form of track illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6. The advantage of an end stop adapted comprising a U-shaped sheet metal member having an end portion and a pair of leg portions shaped to conform substantially with the surface of the tubular track, said leg portions being bent outwardly a short distance from the end plate so as to interengage in a ribbed track supporting bracket.
2. An end stop for tubular tracks having a ribbed track supporting bracket comprising :a
plate and a pair of leg portions shaped to conform substantially with the surface of the tubular track, said leg portions being ioiset outwardly a short distance from the end plate so e as to interengage in said ribbed track supporting bracket.
- 3. In combination, a tubular barn door track, -a
` bracket for said track having a supporting angle member adapted for attachment to a barn wall and a tubular track receiving member having a portion gripping said track and a portion providing an annular pocket partially surrounding the portion of the track adjacent the end thereof= and extending beyond said end, and a lU-shaped sheet metal end stop having outwardly .r 3:0
oiset legs which are engaged within said pocket and which extend over said portion of the track so as to be locked Within said pocket by said portion of the track.
4. In combination, a tubular barn door track, i
a bracket for said track having a supporting angle member adapted for attachment toa barn wall and a tubular track receiving member having a portion' gripping said track and a portion providing an annular pocket partially surrounding the portion Vof the tract adjacent the end thereofand extending beyondsaid end, and a sheet metal end stop having a pair Iof resilient leg portions shaped to conform substantially with U-shaped sheet metal member having `an end j 4 the tubular track, having outwardly oset sections which are snapped into the annular pocket in the bracket and extend over said portion of the track so as to be locked within said pocket by said portion of the track and so as to be locked against endwise motion by the margins of the pocket. f
5. A combination of elements for use with a tubular barn door track, comprising, a. supporting bracket for the track having a ribbed portion forming a circumferential pocket, and a U-shaped sheet metal member having an end plate and a pair of leg portions shaped to conform substantially with the tubular track, said leg portions 'short distance from the end of the plate and having said sections which are offset frictionally engaged Within the pocket formed by the ribbed portion of said bracket.
6. A combination of relements for use with a tubular barn door track, comprising, a supporting bracket for the track having a ribbed portion forming a circumferential pocket, and a sheet metal member having :an end plate and a pair of resilient leg portions shaped to conform substantially With the tubular track, said leg portions having outwardly oset sections a short distance from the end of the plate and having said oiset sections snapped into the pocket formed by the ribbed portion of the bracket so that the resilience of said leg portions resists displacement of said member from said bracket.
