IMPROVED DOOR FOB.. GRAIN-GARS.
@its rbthnlt referat it iu ttes Edius filmt :mi mating tutti its time TO. ALL WHOM ITMAY CONCERNi Be it known that I, S. E. BRIGHT, of Elkhorn, in the county of Walworth, and` State of Wisconsin, have invented newV and useful improvements in Sliding Doors for Railroad Grain-Cars; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being 4had to theaccompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in whichl' i i Figure 1 represents the side view of the cnr andof sliding door, .and
.Figure 2 represents the plan of the weather-strip. F.
y The nature of my invention consists in having the doors for grain-cars sliding and` built in sections,- and so arranged as to be more convenient and more economical than the doors` now used on said cars for the same purpose. y u
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, will proceed to describe its construction and operation. y
Two strips of wood A A', each equal to the double ofy the width of the door in length, are bolted on the outside of the car, one to its sill and the other to its plate; and to these strips the outside boards ofthe car are fastened. The door consists of two sections, B the upper one and G, the lower one. The section C has u4 groove, c, in its bottom, inlaid with two metallic strips to prevent wearing, by means of which groove this section C can slide on the lower track t fastened to the strip There is an upper track, t', fastened to the plate of the car D, on which the section of the door B moves or slides by means of hooks E E fastened `to its panel. The joint of the sections B and C of the door is eiected by means Yof a track, S, laid on the top of section C, and a groove, S', made in the bottom of `the section B. There is a metallic plate, F, fastened to and atthe bottom of sec! tion B, on its outside, that comes d own over a portion of the section C, thus forming a weather-strip to protect the jointsA of the sections. This plate F is turned inside at'its end at G, forming a stop Vto which the sectionV C abuts, thus preventing its opening when section'B is locked. A pin, H, and a mortise, 7L, in the panels' of both sections B and C, lserve for the vpurpose of fastening both sections together, and open or shut` them as one door., There is a hasp and a staple, K K, on the outside of the section B of the door to lock the car, and a handle, L, to slide it. sheeting, M, is put on the inside of the car to prevent grain from getting between the studs of the car and obstructing the lower track't. p
Itis evident from the above description vthat the upper section of the door may be opned or shut without moving the lower section, or the Vwhole door, that is, both sections, may be moved at once. It is also evident that the sectional door may be placed on the inside of the frame of the car, with allits appendages, just as well as 'on the outside of it.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
i The sliding door for grain-cars, put on the outside or inside of a car, consisting of tivo sections B and C, in combination with tracks t t', said sections constructed and operating substantially as herein described and specified.
S. E. BRIGHT.
