UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES B. HALE, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO FRED J. HENDERSON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 8, 1906.
Application filed October 24, 1904:. Serial No. 229,829.
To ILZZ whmn it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES B. HALE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Guide-Brackets for the Sliding Doors of Frei ht-Cars; and I do hereby declare that the following description of my said invention, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, forms a full, clear, and exact specification, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertainsto make and use the same.
This invention has general reference to improvements in guide brackets for the sliding doors of railway, freight, and other cars, &c. and its object is the production of a bracket which shall be extremely cheap, durable, and serviceable and which after it is once applied cannot be removed without being totally destroyed.
To accomplish these results, this invention consists, essentially, in the novel combination of parts and details of construction, as hereinafter first fully set forth and described and then pointed out in the claim.
Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of a portion of a freight-car and the guide-bracket. Fig. 2 is a top plan view. Fig. 3 is a front elevation, and Fig. 4 is a side elevation.
A represents one of the sills, and B the floor, of a railway-car of usual and standard construction.
C is the guide-bracket, which consists of a casting embodying a plate 1 of substantially triangular form, havin at its upper end an ofl'set 2 and an upwar ly-projecting post or guide 3, thereby forming a space 4, in which the car-door (not shown) slides, the projecting post 3 being curved for obvious reasons. Aperture 5 is formed in plate 1 for the reception of bolt 6, and by means of which the bracket is secured to the car-body. 10 10 designate a pair of outwardly-projecting ribs spaced apart and extending from the top of post 3 to the lower end of plate 1, there being a cross-bar 10, connecting said ribs and forming therewith and said ofiset 2 a pocket 7,
which receives nut 8 of the bolt 6, as shown in Fig. 1.
An aperture 1 1 is formed at the apex of the triangle to receive nail 12, by means of which the bracket is secured at its lower end, there being a recess 13 concentric with aperture 11 for the reception of a cap 14, by means of which the nail is prevented from being withdrawn. A series of obliquely-arranged passages are formed concentric with the recess, as shown in Fig. 3, to receive prongs 16, carried by cap 14. As shown in Fig. 1, this cap seats in recess 13, and thereby completely protects the nail-head.
Having thus fully described the present in-.
vention, I claim as new and desire to secure to me by Letters Patent of the United States- A guide-bracket for sliding doors, consisting of a single piece of casting of substantially triangular shape having an offset at the base of the trian le; an upwardly-projecting post at the end oi the offset and projecting ribs extending from the end of the post to approximately the apex of the triangle; a cross-bar connecting said ribs and forming therewith and said offset a pocket in the plate; a squareed ed nut seated in said pocket, a securingbo t having screw-threads on its inner end and secured in said nut; a circular perforated recess near the apex of the triangle having a series of obliquely-arranged passages in the recess and concentric therewith; and an auxiliary fastening device having a head adapted to engage the recess and to secure the bracket in position; a cap having prongs adapted to engage said recess and passages; said cap when in its operative position being substantilally flush with the upper surface of the p ate.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
CHAS. B. HALE.
