description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled -in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
door hangers.
The object of the invention is to provide a door hanger-which will be simple, strong, durable and inexpensive in construction, reliable and efficient in operation and so constructed as to prevent the door from running off the tracks.
A further object is to provide a hanger of this character the trackway of which is constructed to prevent the accumulation of dirt or other foreign matter which would clog the supporting rollers or interfere with the operation of the door.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of'parts, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings-Figure 1 is a side view of the door and hanger as applied to a car or building, parts of the trackway for the hanger being broken away to illustrate the arrangement of the supporting rollers journaled therein; Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the guideway or track; and Fig. 3 is a vertical cross sectional view of the same.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, 1 denotes the trackway of the hanger, said trackway being I adapted to be bolted or otherwise fastened to the side of a car or building and consists of an inner longitudinally-disposed plate or bar 2 and an outer longitudinally-disposed bar 3. the bar 2, and is suitably spaced therefrom by means of spacing blocks 4 secured near the bottom or lower edges of the bars, as shown. Arranged in the bars 2 and 3 adjacent to their lower edges is a series of bearing pins 5, on which are journaled supporting rollers 6.
Arranged on the door 7 and projecting above the same is a carriage 8, which preferably consists of a longitudinally-disposed traveling bar 9, the lower corners of the opposite ends of which are rounded off, as shown This invention relates to improvements in sliding The bar 3 extends parallel with at 10. The bar 9 is adapted to travel or slide over the bearing rollers 6, the rounded corners of the same facilitating the passing of the bar over the rollers. Formed on the outer side of the bar 9 adjacent to its upper edge is a laterally-projecting longitudinally-disposed flange 12, to the outer edge of which are secured downwardlyprojecting, door attaching or hanger plates 13 secured at their lower ends to the side of the door 7 adjacent to its upper edge.
The bar 9 is formed of suflicient width to project above the bars 2 and 3 of the trackway,
so that the flange 12 will clear the upper edge of the outer bar 3 as the carriage travels over the supporting rollers 6 journaled between said bars. 9
By constructing the trackway 1 as herein shown and described, the possibility of dirt or other foreign matter collecting or accumulating in the bottom of the trackway will be entirely obviated, thus preventing the clogging of the rollers 6 or interfering with the operation of the hanger. The construction of the trackway and the carriage 8 will prevent the latter from becoming disengaged from or running off the trackway, the construction of these parts also preventing any lateral strain or sagging of the door, thus causing the traveling bar 9 to run evenly and smoothly over the supporting roller.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction and operation of the invention will be readily understood without requiring a more extended explanation.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters-Patent, is:
A door hanger of the type described comprising an elongated riderbar having; an outwardly projecting lateral flange and depending hanger arms made integral with said flange, in combination with an overhead track consisting of a pair of parallel side bars connected in spaced relation by transverse spacing blocks formed integral with the lower edges of said bars at intervals throughout their length, pintles extended between and terminally secured in the bars at relatively spaced intervals throughout the entire length of the track, and bearing rollers jiournaled on said pintles and spanning the space between the bars and on which the rider bar travels, the bottom of the track being wholly open and unobstructed at points between the rollers.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
