Description
April 16, 1957 T. E. PARDEE RADIATOR HANGER Filed March 19, 1954 United States Patent RADIATOR HANGER Thomas E. Pardee, Cleveland, Ohio, assignor to The Modern Hanger Corporation, Cleveiand, Ghio, a corporation of Ohio Application March 19, 1954, Serial No. 417,439
2 Claims. (Cl. 248-234) This invention relates to hanger constructions which are mounted on walls to support radiators and more particularly to support radiators of the thin tube type.
Adjustable radiator hanger constructions heretofore usually have comprised one or more wall brackets having adjustable radiator horizontal clamping means arranged at the top thereof and a bottom vertically adjustable means on the bracket structure for supporting the radiator in the desired self draining or slightly tilted position so that the condensate will drain into the connected drain line. The adjusting and clamping of the radiator involved the manipulation of an adjusting screw or screws usually disposed close to the floor in an awkward and time consuming position.
The object of the present invention is to provide a hanger construction wherein vertical adjustability of the radiator shoe or hook supporting member extends to the top region of the radiator whereby accessibility for convenient adjustability is afforded near the top region of the hanger and radiator structure.
A further object is the provision of a simplified radiator hanger construction wherein the hasp means for securing the upper region of the radiator and the adjustable radiator supporting shoe are connected to the bracket structure at a common location behind the top region of the radiator.
Other objects will become apparent from the following description referring to the accompanying drawings showing a preferred embodiment thereof. The essential characteristics are summarized in the appended claims.
In the drawings Fig. l is a perspective view of the hanger construction;
Fig. 2 is a vertical cross sectional elevation of the hanger as being secured to a building wall, the adjusted and clamped radiator being indicated by dot and dash lines; and
Fig. 3 is a top plane view of the hanger including the hasp in clamped relation to the radiator.
This invention contemplates the simplification of radiator hanger constructions while providing a more convenient manner of mounting wall radiators when the same are being installed. The hanger construction is such that the bracket may be of simple form and the weight of the radiator and associated piping is suspended entirely at the top of the bracket.
The bracket member 6 has upper and lower right angled flanges '7, the lower flange being provided with a slot 7a slightly greater in width than the diameter of a radiator suspending rod 8. The upper flange of the bracket has an opening through which passes the upper threaded end 811 of the rod 8 and the lower end 8b of the rod 8 is provided with a hook or shoe formation upon which the bottom of the radiator structure rests. The bracket 6 is provided with bolt perforations 9 whereby the bracket may be bolted to a building wall. The inner end of the slot 7a is aligned vertically with the hole in the top flange 7 so that the rod 8 when swung toward the bracket with the radiator thereon will come to rest in the slot 7a with the radiator vertically disposed.
The top part of the radiator is clamped by a hasp member 10 having its inner end enlarged and perforated to fit loosely upon the threads 8a of the rod 8 and rest upon the upper surface of the upper bracket flange 7. The outer end of the hasp has a right angled formation to which is bolted a clamping plate 13 by a bolt 14. Fig. 3 shows the plate 13 swung from its position in Fig. 1 and in clamping relation to the radiator tubes.
An adjusting nut 15 disposed on the upper side of the hasp structure and the bracket serves as the main adjusting means for raising and lowering the suspended radiator and as is apparent this nut is disposed near the upper region of the suspended radiator for convenient adjust ment with a suitable wrench.
It will be noted that the outer reach of the hasp structure 10 and the clamping plate 13 are indicated as being narrow in width thereby to pass through the vertical spaces of the radiator tubes.
While the disclosed hanger construction is of the utmost simplicity its use nevertheless has resulted in considerable saving of expensive installation labor while being economical to produce.
I claim:
1. A radiator hanger comprising a single piece sheet metal bracket member of uniform width having an upper and a lower flange of the same width bent forwardly therefrom, said flanges having vertically aligned openings and the lower flange opening being in the form of a bifurcation, a swingable vertically extending rod having its upper end threaded and its lower end in the form of a hook for engaging and supporting a radiator, said hook being below the lower flange of the bracket member, the upper end of said rod passing through the opening of the upper flange of the bracket, a hasp member shaped to pass through the vertical openings of a radiator and having an opening at one end for engaging the upper portion of the red by having the rod extend upwardly therethrough and reacting thereon when the hasp is in clamped relation to the radiator and an upwardly exposed adjusting nut rockably resting on the hasp while in threaded engagement with the upper portion of the rod.
2. A radiator hanger comprising a single piece bracket member of uniform width having an upper and a lower protruding flange of the same width, said flanges having vertically aligned openings and the lower flange opening being in the form of a bifurcation, said bracket having fastener openings located between the flanges, a swingable vertically extending rod having its upper end threaded and extending through the upper flange and its lower end in the form of a hook for engaging and supporting a radiator, said hook being below the lower flange of the bracket member, an adjusting nut in engagement with the upper threaded end of the rod above the said upper flange, a hasp member shaped to pass through the vertical openings of a radiator and having the inner end thereof perforated with the rod extending therethrough, said adjusting nut serving to secure the rod and hasp to the bracket and bearing upon the top face of the hasp in rockable relation to said top face.
