' TRACK HANGER.
PATENT OFFICE.
LE GRAND TERRY, OF HORSEHEADS, NEW YORK.
TRACK-=HANGER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 390,412, dated October 2, 1888.
Application filed May 25, 1888. Serial No. 275,051.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LE GRAND TERRY, of Horseheads, in the county of Ohemung and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in TrackIIangersj and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to an improvement in track-hangers.
Hitherto rails for sliding doors have been secured to buildings by means of a thimble and a coachscrew passing through the rail, thimble, and side of the building. This has furnished sufficient support for doors of light weight, and to insure sufficient strength to support doors of heavier weight a re-enforcing bracket has been formed integral with the main bracket or the thimble. This has resulted in comparative expense in the initial cost ofthc hangers without gaining the strength sought.
The object of my present invention is to provide an independent and removable bracket or support for the well-known thimble-bracket, whereby greater strength is attained and simplicity, durability, and economy in the use of material are effected.
With this end in view my invention consists in certain features of construction and combinations of parts, as will be hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a view in perspective of my improved trackhanger in itsposition supporting a rail. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section through the middle of the bolt, thimble, removable bracket, and the rail.
A represents a portion of the side of a building to which my improved hanger is attached. A thimble, B, having a hollow bore, is enlarged or flanged at the end a, which is seated on the side of the building to give it a broad and extended bearing. An independent depending bracket, O, having its two ends in different planes parallel to each other and a distance from each other approximately equal to the length of the thimble B, is secured by means of screws or bolts 1) at its larger end to the building, and at its opposite end is provided with a perforation, c, in position to (No model.)
v align with the hole in the bore of the thimble at the outer or smaller end of the latter. 5 5 Against this outer end, (I, of the bracket the rail D is adapted to rest. The rail is provided with a hole, e, which when the rail is in position and all the other parts are assembled is also in alignment with the bore of the thimble. Thus a continuous hole is formed for the entrance of a large screw, E. This screw is preferably the ordinary form of coach-screw with squared head, as a means whereby it may be readily turned.
By means of the bracket support is given to the outer end of the boltthat is, the end where the rail and all the weight are located-- and, owing to the fact that the bracket is an independent attachment, its use may of course be dispensed with when comparatively light doors are in use; and, furthermore, owing to the fact that it is an independent attachment it is obvious that it could be applied to any ordinary bracket. I
Of course the brackets are, as customary, placed at short intervals from each other, and it is evident that the bracket may be either above or below the thimble, and that slight modifications might be resorted to in the constructive details of my invention without departing from the spirit and scope of my invention; hence I do not desire to be limited to the precise construction; but,
Having fully described my invention, what I 8 5 claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a track-hanger, the combination, with a thimble having an enlarged bearing-surface at its inner end and provided with a. cylindrical bore, a headed bolt the body of which fits snugly within the cylindrical bore of the thimble, and a bracket one end of which encircles the bolt at a point behind the head of the latter, the other end of said bracket being adapted to be attached to a support, of a rail perforated for the passage of the bolt and resting between the head of the bolt and bracket, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed this 100 specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
LE GRAND TERRY.
