DOOR-HANGER.

Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 4, 1808.
Serial No. 411,843.
declare that the following is a full, clear, and
exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in door hangers, and the invention consists in the construction and combination of parts substantially as shown and described and particularly pointed out in the claiins.
In the accompanying drawin s, Figure 1 is a side elevation oi a single embodiment of the invention, and Fig- 2 is a cross section thereof. Fig. 3 is a detail in plan.
Theinvention as thus shown is ada ted to be used on so-called sliding doors, suspended from and adapted to ride upon a rail or track C supported on arms 2 from a rail supporting bar B. The suspensory and adjusting means herein comprise a hanger H, carrying sheaves, rollers or wheels J therein, grooved to run on: track or rail and upon which the hanger and door are. supported, the lower or bottom portion of said hanger being turned inwardly to bring it beneath the track and in the center of gravit At this point connection is made with the door b novel suspensory means adapted to hotvertically and laterally adjust the door, said means comprising a mtle 3 engaged in cars 4 of said hanger and orming a connection or support for hinge member 5, hung upon said pint e between said bars 4. A screw member 7 is engaged through a transverse threaded eye in said hinge member and a yoke 8 and a threaded door supporting member 9 are hung on said screw 7. The said yoke is pivc-ially supported through its own cars by pintle 10 m a stud or n ojection 12 at the top of the bracket- E, whidh bracket is fined to the top edgeand side of the door and has a transverse bar or rib 14 through .rhich the suspensory or door supporting screw member 9 is adjustably engaged by nut 16 beneath. Or to be more specifi yoke S is pivoted at one side of the hanger member E on a proection 12 on the left hand arm of said memr. the free end of the yoke projecting towards the other arm and terminating about midway between said arm whereit is operathe transverse screw threaded eye by means of the transverse screw 7 rotatively mounted m the free ends of the yoke and the adjustable door. supporting screw 9 whereby it is 0 designed to cflect the vertical adjustment of the yoke-and consequently the door with reference to the track.
The lateral arms of yoke S are supported upon the respective and corresponding ends 5 of transverse screw 7, and door supportin screw member 9 has an eye freely sleeve upon the outer end of said screw 7 next to the corresponding arm of the said yoke.
Yoke 8 holds the door in alinement and through screw 7 serves to adjust the door laterally in either direction exactly as much 4 as may be needed in any given case, while screw support 9 serves ,to fix the elevation of the door. mechanisms can be employed for a door.
A rigid hanger may be usedin place of the hinged hanger as shown. That is, the hanger II and hinge member 5 may berigidly attached or integral with each other. member 9 may be ivotally engaged upon yoke 8 direct insteail of being sleeved upon transverse screw 7 as shown.
In the foregoing construction, I have aimed to make a durable as well as convenient device by which the door can be adjusted both vertically and laterally and also can be a plied to a door without cutting and dillicu t fitting, as is the case with so manv other adjustable door hangers now on t 1e market.
With these ends in vicw, I have provided a door plate E extending over the top of the door and providing means to connect the Yoke S therewith. This yoke constitutes a brace connection between the traveler or means by which the door can be adjusted laterally on said screw. Sometimes the track settles out of line or level and lets the bottom of the door dra This is when the. vertical adjustment comes in play through screw 9. and the s de adjustment is used tively connected to the hinge member having Two or more of these complete 75 Screw 80 This screw, 7 also supports the 100 It will be seen that the yoke is soa i i l l E when different thicknesses of lumber are used to make the door and when the wall of the bundmg warps so that the door will bind. The yoke S affords a pivoted means between door and hsngem these ad ustments. Then I, the transverse screw cairbe turned and the door adjusted as "desired.
Material advantages are obtained by the. use of yoke 8, all of which will probably be better understood when it is notedthat the said yoke is anchored to the door across its top edge through bracket or plate E, and whereby a bracing eflcct is provided there through to take up such strains as are imposed upon the parts when the door or its carrier strikes the jamb or bumper in opening or closing the door.
The yoke guards against the bendin or breaking of screw 9, and also screw 7, and the parts to which the are attached, and this is noticeably true w en the door is adjusted either to its extreme lower or side limits and when the door is not plumb in linewith the track and carrier. When not centrally hung, the door in closing brings a twisting strain upon the hanger parts, the weakestpoint of which is at the ends of screws 7 and 9, but with the yoke construction referred to herein, both ends of both screws are rigidly coupled up with the door, or, more properly speaking, with bracket- E rigid with the door, and no matter how the door may be hung in respect to carrier H and track C, the hanger parts will be braced and safeguarded by the yoke against strain from all sides and ends.
'What I claim is:-
1. A door and a rail from which the door is hung, in combination with a hanger adapted to travel on said rail and suspensory an adjusting mechanism comprising a member hinged on said hanger having" a transverse threaded eye, a bracket on the door and a supporting member vertically ad ustable on said bracket, a screw through the eye of said lunged member having said door support-mg members engaged on its outer end and a yoke constituting a brace pivoted on said door bracket and engaged on the ends 01" said transverse screw.
2. In door hangers, a. door and a bracket thereon having a projection at its top extending over the door, and a rail and a hanger adapted to run on said rail, and means connecting said bracket and hanger comprising a member having a, transverse threaded eye pivotally connected to the hanger, a yoke pivoted to the bracket, a transverse adjustable screw connectin said yoke and ye member, and a vertically adjustable sup orting screw connecting said parts to raise or lowerthe door.
3. In door hangers, a suspensory member and sheaves therein, a transverse adjusting screwsupported by said member at its bottom, a hinge member pivotally engaged between said door and said transverse screw and having a door supporting screw mounted on one end thereof. and a bracket on said door a yoke pivot'edon said bracket and constituting a bracemember adjustably engaged with said screw at its other end.
4. In door hangers, a suspensory carrier and a transverse screw having a pivotal connectlon therewith, combined with a door and a vertical adjusting screw connected with the door and with a. yoke pivotally engaged with the door and constitutin a brace member across the top thereof andextending toward and engaged with both ends of the said transverse screw.
In testimony whereof I sign this specification in the presence of two witnesses.
