ATENT JACOB H. MOYER, OF JORDAN, ONTARIO, CANADA.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Plat'ent No. 304,846, dated September 9, 1884.
Application filed September 13, 1883. (No model.)
To aZZ whom, it may concern-.-
Be it known that I, JACOB H. MoYER, a citizen of Canada, residing at Jordan, in the county of Lincoln, in the Province of Ontario, Dominion of Canada, have invented a new and useful Gate-Opening Attachment, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in attachments for opening and closing gates, in which the gate is opened or closed by means of a wire rope or chain passing around two pulleys a distance apart, with an ordinary handle attached to the center of each pulley; and the object of myinvention is, first, to open or close the gate by a turn of the handle without having to leave thebuggy or wagon second, to afford facilities for opening the gate when snow may be on the ground, for which purpose the gate may be hung high or low, andthe attachment will work well. The bar is round and the slide has a round hole through it therefore the slide will not only work horizontally, but will move a little on its own center. I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which v Figure 1 is a side elevation of the fence and attachments, showing the gate half open. Fig. 2 is a plan of the same embodying my invention. Fig. 3 is an end elevation of Figs. 1 and 2, looking from the dotted line 00 w.
Similar letters refer to similar parts through out the several views.
The posts A and B are parts of any ordinary fence, and may be of any required height. Post B is the latch-post. WVhen the gate is closed, it is latched to this post. Fencing can be started from post B in any required direction from the gate.
0 are pulleys for either .chain or rope, and are secured to the handles d, the crank ends of which go through the two posts aainto the bearings M, as shown. These two bearings M are screwed to the back of the post a. When either handle (I is turned, the chain I moves along either way over the two pulleys. The ends of the said chain are secured to the slide F, and consequently the said slide draws the connecting-rod J. This rod draws the slide 0 (upon the gate) a short distance, and theslide 0 draws the latch L out of its socket a by means of the connecting-link K, one end of which is attached to the slide 0 and the other end to the latch L, When the slide 0 has moved so far as the bar Hwillallow, then the gate G moves with the slide F, that moves on the slide-bar E. This said bar E is secured tothe fence by being bolted to an extra piece of wood that is fastened to the fence, as shown in Fig. 3. It is very perceptible that when the handles (1 are turned the gate is drawn by means of chain, slide, and eonnecting-rod, and it is easily seen, also, that the gate G can be closed on the same principle.
The fence bars or rails, as shown longitudinallyin Fig. 1, broken at the ends, may eX- tend to any length. These rails are a part of any fence. It is perceptible that the slide-bar Eis bolted to the top rail of the fence; also, the slide-bar H is bolted to the top of the gate. The slide 0 can only move each way acertain distance, this distance beingjust sufficient to unlatch the gate. When this is fully open at B, or quite closed against the post B, the least turn of either handle is sufficient to unlatch it.
N, as shown on the posts B and B, are the two small catches,witha holein each to admit the latch L. These catches, or more properly sockets, are irons fastened to the said .posts. All the attachments comprising the gate opening and closing apparatus may be made of malleable iron.
P, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, are ordinary hinges. The circular dotted line in Fig. 2 shows the traverse of the gate. The said gate is shown in all the three views as midway open. When drawn close to thepost B and latched, it is quite open, and when pushed (on the same principle I have hereinbefore described) close to the post B and latched it is quite closed.
The construction of afence, gate, and attachments on the principle I have fully described, allows the driver in a wagon or vehicle (driving either way) to unlatch the gate and also open or close the said gate withoutleavinghis seat, this being an important part of my invention.
I am aware that prior to my invention there were fences and gates, also chain-pulleys, slide-bars, slides, connecting-rods, links, and
latches; but I am not awarethat any attachnecting-rod J, slide 0, bar H, and means for Inent such as I have shown and described is connecting said slide with the latch, substan- IO or has been on any fence or gate; and tially as described.
What I claim as my invention and desire T 5 to secure by Letters Patent, is JACOB M01 In a gate, the combination of handles d,pu1- XVitnesses: leys 0, chain I, slide F, to which each end of A. MOPHERSON, said chain is attached, stationary bar E, con- DAVID Ross.
