Description
` Sept '4; 1951 J. w. GAWLIK 2,566,486
HINGE Filed sep. 27. 1946 Flr-E21- -F-lE EL..
Patented Sept. 4, 1951 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
My invention relates to improvements in hinges.
An important object of the invention is to provide a hinge of the leaf type, having means which prevents the pintle from working out, and which will also indicate the upright position of the hinge.
A further object of the invention is to provide means for positively holding the pintle against improper movement, and which may be used to facilitate removing the pintle from the h1nge knuckles.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
`In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this application, and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the improved hinge embodying my invention, and showing the same applied to a door, or the like,
Figure 2 is a horizontal section taken on line 2-2 of Figure 1, and,
Figure 3 is a plan view of the hinge.
In the drawings, where for the purpose of illustration, is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 5 designates conventional flat rectangular leaves, held in place by screws 5', and being provided with the usual vertically arranged cylindrical interfltting hinge knuckles 6 and 1. Press fitted into the lower hinge knuckle 6, is the usual dummy head 8, and the knuckles 6 and 'l receive the usual pintle 9, having an upper head I0, integral therewith.
Rigidly secured to the pintle head I0, by means of welding, or the like, is a radial elongated extension or plate Il, the outer edge of which terminates at the outer edge of the adjacent hinge leaf 5. The plate ll has openings l2, receiving screws I3, which secure the plate Il in place upon the door. The plate ll presents the appearance of a continuation of the adjacent leaf 5, and does not detract from the general appearance of the hinge.
In use, the improved hinge is applied to the door and door frame, by means of screws, as illustrated in Figure 1 of the drawings. The presence of the extension or plate Il will always indicate the upper end of the hinge. The extension ll holds the pintle 9 positively against axial movement, and the pintle cannot turn or work out of the knuckles 6 and 'l when the door is used. When hanging' a door on hinges, or removing the same, the extension ll may be turned outwardly, from the at surface of the door, and in that position, it can be conveniently struck by a hammer, or the like, for inserting or removing the pintle from the hinge knuckles.
It is thus seen that the addition of the extension I I to the pintle of an otherwise conventional door hinge, overcomes several of the most troublesome problems arising in the use of such hinges; namely, the working out or loosening of the pintle, the assembling and disassembling of the hinge, and the identication of the upper end of the hinge.
It is to be understood, that the form of my invention herewith shown and described, is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes in the shape. size and arrangement of parts may be resorted to, without departing from the spirit of my invention or the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described my invention. what I claim is:
A hinge, comprising opposed fiat rectangular leaves, spaced interfltting knuckles secured to the inner opposed longitudinal edges of the leaves, a pintle for engagement within the knuckles and pivotally connecting the leaves, a head permanently secured to one end of the pintle, a narrow elongated flat transversely-extending plate rigidly secured to the head and extending transversely thereof and adjacent to the top transverse edge of one of the leaves and parallel to such transverse edge, the outer end of the plate terminating substantially at the outer longitudinal edge of the adjacent leaf, the plate being in the same plane as the adjacent leaf, and means for securing the plate in place, whereby the plate has the appearance of a substantially integral extension of the adjacent leaf.
JOHN W. GAWLIK.
