UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE,
VILLIAM VAN NOSTRAND, OF SWVAIN, NE" YORK.
G AT E SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 441,342, dated November 25, 1890.
Application filed January 2'7, 1890. Serial No. 338,245. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM VAN NOS- TRAND, a citizen of theUnited States, residing at Swain, in the county of Allegany and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gates, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to gates, and has reference more particularly to that class of gates which swing laterally and are designed to be automatically locked, and in both an open and a closed position, and to be locked and unlocked from either side of the gate.
The invention consists in a novel manner of mounting the gate proper upon its post or support and in a novel construction of the locking devices and the devices for closing the gate.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved gate; Fig. 2, a side view with the post in section; Fig. 3, a top plan view partly in section; and Figs. 4 and 5, sectional views at right angles to each other of the cap, post, and looking-bolts.
A indicates a post, which will advisably be made of gas-pipe, and secured in position by a brace A, staked to the ground and bolted to the post.
0 indicates a ring or collar secured to the upper end of the post and having its upper face dressed, so as to forma bearing or support for the cap B and the gate proper carried thereby.
The ring or collar 0 is provided with a hollow stem 0 to fit into the upper end of the post A, while the cap 13 is provided with a stem a, adapted to turn freely within the stem 0', the collar and its stem being held against turning by means of a screw 0 as shown in Fig. 4.
The ring or collar O is provided with two sets of seats or depressions b and 0, arranged at right angles to each other, one set b b being deeper than the other set 0 c, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5, but both being designed to receive the locking-pins (Z (Z carried by the cap. These pins d cl work vertically through the cap and are shouldered and surrounded within the holes made to receive them by coiled springs 6, hearing at their lower ends upon the shoulders. Pins d dare rounded at their lower ends in order that the rotation of the cap may facilitate their disengagement from.
the holes in the ring after the said pins have been partially raised out of the holes.
Secured to the upper face of the capB is a bracket D, carrying at its upper end wheels or pulleys f f, over which cords or connections 9 g, of any suitable character, pass, said cords being connected with the upper ends of the pins d d, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 4.
E indicates the main arm of the gate, which for the sake of lightness. and cheapness will advisably be made of gas-pipe, and which will be secured to the cap B in any suitable manner, said arm projecting on both sides'of the cap, as shown, and provided at its inner end with aweight h, which serves to counterbalance the outer portion of the arm.
Secured to the arm E and projecting from the upper and lower faces thereof are short arms F, which also will advisably be made of gas-pipe, said arms F being designed to sup port cross-wires z, plain or barbed, or merely rods. At its rear or inner end the main arm E is provided with wheels or pulleys j to guide the cords or connections g, passing over the wheels f f, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3.
G indicates a weight connected by a cord or connection k, of any suitable construct-ion,
with the inner or rear end of arm E close to the cap, and 11 indicate two wheels or pulleys secured to the ring 0, between which pulleys the said cord or connection 70 passes, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3.
When the gate is closed, as represented in Figs. 1, 2, and 3, the pins d at will be in engagement with the shallow seats or depressions c c in the ring or collar. Now by pulling upon the cord or connection g the pins will be lifted vertically out of the seats 0 c, and by continuing the pull upon the cord the gate may be swung open and the weight G elevated correspondingly.
If it is desired to hold the gate open,it will be swung around until the pins are brought over the deeper depressions b b, when the springs 6 will force said pins down into the depressions. In order to close the gate, it is sition, in which position it will be locked by the pins engaging the seats 0 c. I have shown the cord or connection g extending to a post or standard close to the side of the roadway, as is usual, and in order that the gate may be operated by foot-passengers a cord or connection m (represented by dotted lines in Fig. 2) will be employed. In such case the cord or connection in will advisably be secured atone end to the free or outer end of the gate, and at the opposite end will be connected with the cords g.
It is not essential that two pins 61 be employed, or that the depressions c c be made shallower than the depressions b b, the latter feature being employed to lessen the danger of breakage should the gate be shut violently. When the gate is standing open, the pins 01 d will be in the deep depressions b b, and it will be seen that if the gate be swung violently from this position intoa closed position there is more chance of the pins riding into and out of the shallow depressions c 0 than there would be if these depressions were as deep as those used in holding the gate open.
The gate herein shown and described is light and cheap and easy of manipulation.
In order to protect the locking pins or bolts against the eifect of the weather, a hood will advisably be secured to the cap, as shown in Fig. 2.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is 1. In combination with a post A, having two sets of depressions b c, a gate provided with a cap B, pins (1 d, carried by the cap, and
means, substantially such as shown, 'for actuating the pins.
2. In combination with post A, having deep seats I) b and shallow seats 0 c, a gate having a cap B, which is provided with pins d d, and means, substantially such as shown, for actuating the pins.
3. In combination with post A and a ring or collar 0, cap 13, to rest upon the collar and provided with stem at, and a gate proper secured to the cap.
4. In combination with post A, cap B, and the gate carried thereby, bracket D, pulleys f f, mounted therein, locking-pins d d, to engage the post, and cords or connections g, all arranged substantially as shown.
5. In combination with post A, cap B, and Q the gate carried thereby, bracket D,provided with pulleys f, pulleys 7', mounted upon the inner end of the gate proper, locking-pins, cords or connections g, extending from the pins about the pulleys fj, and a cord or connect-ion m, connected with one of the cords g and extending toward the outer end of the gate.
6. In combination with a gate proper and its cap B, a post provided with a ring or collar O, spring-pressed pins or bolts carried by the cap to engage the ring, and means for retracting the pins.
In witness whereof I hereunto set my hand in the presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM VAN NOSTRAND. WVitnesses:
