Letters Patent No. 90,880, :lated June 1, 1869.
IMPROVEMENT kIN Hure-Es.'
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and-making partof the same.
To all whom it may' concern:
Figure l is a side view and partial sectioll of a gatehung according to my invention.
Figure 2 is an inverted' plan view of one portion of one of the hinges.
Figure 3 is a plan view of another portion of the same.
Figure 4 is a plan view and partial .horizontal section of the two parts limited to form the same.
Similar let-'ters of reference indicate corresponding parts in allthe figures.
The object of this invention, designed more particularly for use in hanging gates, is to prevent the gatefrom being casually thrown from its hanging, as frequently occurs-with theso-called crotch-hinge, and other hinges, usually termed loose-jointed. y
This object is etfectually secured by the peculiar construction of the upper and lowerhinges by whichl the gate is suspended, the lower hinge being provided with spllrs on one portion thereof', which act ill connection with 'circumferential ribs or tlanches upon the other portion of the same, to prevent t-he coming apart of the two portions, the upper hinge having a stud on its movable portion, which passes under the edge of the bracket forming the other half, to prevent the gate from rising, except when brought to a certain position.
To enable others to understand the construction and operation of my invention, I will -proceed to describe it with reference to the drawings.
The post which -supports the gate is shown'a-t A, and B represents the gate itself, theiuner vertical bar A* of which is connected, by the hinges, with the post` A, as hereinafter fully set fol-th.
The uppermost hinge may consist ofa vertical pivot, c, provided upon a suitable bracket, B, attached to the post A, and having over it a cap, b, secured to the bar A* of the gate.
In order that the gate may not be accidentally-lifted to bring the cap b off or from the pivot a, there is provided upon the plate a", by which such cap is attached to the bar Ar, a stud, b", which, passing underneath the edge of the .bracket Bi, keeps the gate from rising, except when the saule is turned or swung laterally, to bring thc stlld underneath a notch or recess, ci, formed ill one side of thc bracket, to enable the stud to pass upward when it is desired to lift or re-y move the gate. n
rlhe lower or c rotch-hinge is constrllcted as follows:
The lower forked portion, G, thereof, provided with the two recesses c, is attached to the postA by means of a plate, 0*, formed in one piece therewith, and has formed upon its upper surface two spllrs, c', one at the inner side of each recess c, in the position shown more clearly in 3 and 4.
The upper portion, D, of the Vhinge is attached, by
its plat-e (l, to thc bar A* of the gate, alld its circllmferential form corresponds with that of the lower portion, C, just hereinbefore described.
This portion il) is furnished with two downwardlyextending pins, e, situated at such distance apart that when the gate is closed they may fit into the recesses c of the part G.
Provided at the outer side of each lateral part e* of the portion D, is. a downwardly -projecting rib or tianch, e.
When the gate is swung to open the same in one direction or t le other, as the case may be, one of the pills e is brought away from the recess c, which l'eceives it when the gate is closed, as hereinbefore mentioned, and the rib or lanch e' of the part 6*, at the opposite side thereof, passing around or behind the spur c', adjacent thereto, is, 'as it were, hooked upon such spur, in such manner as to 'effectually prevent the portion D from slipping from the'portion C, thereby effectually securing the retention ofthe two portions of the hinge in place.
What I claim as lny invention, and desire to secure by Letters' Patent, is
.1. The arrangement and combination of the spurs c' on, the portion U, and the circumferential ribs or flanches c', upon the portion D of the lower hinge, substantially as sllown and described.
2. In combination with the lower hingeconstructed as, described, the stud b" on the upper hinge, arranged substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
