HANGER FOR SHAFTING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 295.553, dated March 25, 1884.
Application filed October 10, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that l, JOSEPH E. HorPEN, of Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hangers for Shafting; and I do hereby declare that the following is afull, clear, and exact description of the same.
My invention consists in a novel construction, arrangement, and combination of devices whereby provision is made for adjusting the journal box or bearing vertically with a parallel motion, vertically with an' oscillating motion, horizontally with an oscillating motion, and horizontally with a lateral motion,
. as hereinafter more particularly described.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of a hanger embodying myimprovements. Fig. 2 is a vertical section taken in the line as m of Fig. 1. r Fig. 3 is a bottom view, and Fig. 4 is a detail View.
A represents a casting forming the baseplate of the hanger, provided with bolt-holes a a, for attaching it to a ceiling, beam, or rafter.
At the points usually occupied by the downwardly-extending arms or branches of an ordinary hanger are two bosses, B B, having holes extending entirely through them and through the plate A. In these holes are fitted the upper ends of two wrought-iron rods, G G, which may be fastened in place either by screw-threads, by casting, or by riveting down the upper ends of the rods,as shown. The portions of the rods 0 below the bosses are screw-threaded, and on them slides a horizontal plate, D, provided with holes, through which said threaded rods pass, with jam-nuts e e above the plate and fastening-nuts f f below it. The journal-box G is made in two halves, in the usual form, the upper half being provided with an oiler, g. The dripcup d-is carried by a rod screwed into the plate D. The lower half of the journal-box G is carried by a plate, H, which is attached to the plate D by bolts h, passing through longitudinal slots t in the plate D. The bottom of the plate H is convex, and it rests in a concave seat in the top of the plate D, The plate D, which slides on the rods 0, has a round hole for engagement with one of said rods, and the other hole is elongated laterally, so as to form a slot, j, through which the other rod works. In the edges of the plate D, at the opposite ends of the slot j, are two setscrews, K K.
The operation of my invention is as follows: The base-plate A is attached to the ceiling or beam by bolts passed through the holes a in the usual manner. The parts being in the position shown in Fig. 1, if it is desired to raise or lower the journal-box G vertically with a parallel motion, the jam-nuts e and fastening-nuts fare raised or lowered until the proper height is attained, and are then tightened, so as to hold the box at said height. In order to adjust the box G vertically with an oscillating motion, the plate H is moved in its concave seat until the proper level is attained, and then secured by tightening the.
nuts on the bolts h. To adjust the box horizontally with a lateral motion, the plate H is moved longitudinally and secured by tightening the nuts on the bolts h. To adjust the box horizontally with an oscillating motion,
the set-screws K are tightened or loosened, so
as to bear more or less against the rod 0, working in the slotj.
When the hanger is to be used upon a floor, bench, table, or other low position, it is simply reversed, so that the parts will be in opposite directions to what is shown in the draw- 1n s.
If desired, a plate, M, may be introduced between the plate D and one of the jam-nuts, e, so as to provide for the attachment of a belt 3. The combination of the rods 0, plate D,.
provided with the slot j, and the set-screws K K, as shown and described, for the purpose specified.
