SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 784,844, dated March 14, 1905.
Application filed November 10, 1904:. Serial No. 232,118.
To (all 10/1/0111, [It 'IIMI/I/ concern:
Be it known that I, J AMES WVILDER ELLIOTT, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of South McAloster, in the Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory, have invented a new and Improved Gate, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to gates, and has for -ts principal objects the provision of asimple and strong device of this character which may be readily opened and closed.
It consists in the various features and combinationshereinafter described, and more particularly claimed. I
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of one embodiment of my invention, shown in full lines in its closed position and in dotted lines as open. Fig. 3 is an enlarged vertical transverse section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional detail on the line 1 1 of Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 is a perspective view of one of the trunnionplates.
The numerals l0 and 11 designate opposite posts, which may be supported upon a baseframe 12 or otherwise set in the ground. Bolted to the adjacent inner sides of these posts are supporting members 13 13, in which are formed alined sockets 14c 14, preferably bushed at 15. With these sockets cooperate trunnions 16, which may project from plates 17, carried by the gate Gr. At least one of the plates is preferably provided with vertical slots 18, through which pass attaching-bolts 19, this permitting an adjustment which will vary the plane in which the outer end of the gate moves. The gate may consist of a frame formed either of wood or metal and comprising top and bottom bars 20, which are situated between double inner and outer end bars 21 21*, respectively, between which is a double intermediate bar 22. The frame may be filled by suitably-spaced wires 23, extending between the end bars, and have diagonal stays 24, in which are turnbuckles 26 to permit them to be tightened.
At its outer end the gate may coact with a post 27, having pairs of guide members 28 28 to receive the gate and prevent lateral movement. The correct relation of the gate to these guides may be established the adjustment of the sockets and trunnions.
Pivoted at 29 upon the intermediate or center bar of the gate is a latch-bar 30, carrying at its side toward the post 10 a bracket 31, the angular end of which may contact with a substantially vertical face 32 at the inner side of the supporting member 13,this engagement preventing the gate from swinging upwardly. A weight 33 may be fixed to the outer end of the latch to hold it in its acting position. Connected to the latch at opposite sides are shown two flexible operating members 34-. 34:, which are attached to the inner'ends of levers 35, fulcrumed upon posts 36 at each side of the gate and extending in opposite directions therefrom, so that they may be conveniently moved by pendants 37 The latch may be joined to the lower bar of the gate by a flexible connector 38, by which the stress of the operating member may be transmitted to the frame after the latch has been raised.
Extending between the bar 21 of the gate and a post 39 is a flexible member a0, carrying a weight 411, which is sufliciently heavy to somewhat overbalance the gate, which is retained against upward movement by its latch.
The gate being in the position shown in full lines in Fig. 1, to open it either'of the pendants may be pulled, this acting, through the flexible operating member, to first raise the latch-bracket above the end of the face 32 upon the supporting member. The gate being thus released, the pull of the operating member is transmitted to the connector 38 and then to the gate-frame, swinging it upon its trunnions, when the weight will continue this movement until the gate assumes the vertical position shown-in dotted lines in Fig. 1, at which the way which it closes is open. Movement in this direction may be limited by any suitable stop member or post 42, set in the ground, and into contact with which comes the upper end of the bar 21. To close the gate, the pendants may be drawn in like manner, the impulse swinging the gate inwardly and downwardly against the weight, the angular end of the latch-bracket riding over a curved face 43 upon the Opposite edge of the support 13 from the face 32 until it falls by gravity within said face 32 and is there locked both against the opening stress of the weight and against accidental raising by stock.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. The combination with a post-provided with a substantially vertical inner face and a curved outer face, of a gate pivoted upon the post to open upwardly, and a latch contacting with the faces.
2. The combination with opposite posts having sockets, of a gate provided with trunnions coacting with the sockets, and means for varying the position of a trunnion.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
