To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Crans L, BNDY, a citizen of the United States, residing ati` Kingsland, Bergen county, New Jersey, have ments in Car-Door Hangers, ofwhich the following is a full, clear, and exact description. My invention relates to improvements in car door construction, and particularly to an improvement in that type of hanger set forth 1n ny former patent No. 855,691, of June 4, 19 7. v I i The object of the invention is to provide a construction whereby the door will be properly supported, and at the same time will be prevented from becomingjammed by'reason of being tilted in such a manner as to take the antifriction rolls olf the supporting track.
in practice, particularly at a time when snow and ice are found on the outer side of a car, it is only withdiiiiculty that the car door may be opened. The presence of snow and ice may. result in a slight tilting of the door, so as to cause a jamming ofthe same. This is prevented by my improved construction.
inthe accompanying-drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of alportion of a-car door, track and hanger, the door and track being partly broken away. ylli 2 is a plan view. Fig. 3 is avertical sentient irou h'the hanger. Fig. 4i is an edge elevation of t e hanger, detached. y Y
l represents a portion of the doorframe. 2 is the track secured 'to the frame l.
3 is the door. i
The track extends across the top of the door opening in the usual manner, and projects ordinarily to one side thereof a sulficient distance to allow the door to be slid along sufliiriently to entirely uncover the opening. v
el is the main body or` front plate of the hanger, the same being'suitably secured to the door 3; This hanger is also rovided with an integral rear plate 4 ioine to the front plate 4l by means of-a top plate 4b.
4C is an upper projection at the rear.
[le is a ont plate. Thespacebetween the cheek pieces 4d and the front plate A.le and rear plate 1l furnishes room for a roller 5 mounted on pivot 5a, the latter receiving a bearingr at both ends, at the front in plate l? fframe. Y tended forwardly, then downwardly, then The roller 5 projects above and below the cheek pieces 4, as 'shown in the several views.
if 1s a lug on the plato 4C arranged to receive a reinforcing Z-bar' 6, by which the' upper edge of the door 3 is strengthened, said p ate being riveted to said oar 4f, or otherwise suitably fastened. l
The track member comprises the upper part 2, which' is directly secured to the door The lowei` edge of this part is eX- rearwardly, the last mentioned rearward eX- tension furnishingr the track proper, as indicated at 2a. Upon this track proper the roller 5 rests.
In a car'door, ordinarily two such hangers as shown in Fig. l are provided, one at each end of the Z-bar 6, near the opposite edges of the door and said hangers and bar are secured together for i mutual reinforcement. Since the manner of attaching the Z---bar to the` hangers is precisely `the same at each end, only one end of said. Z-bar is illustrated in the drawing. llien the parts are suspended, as indicated in Fig. l, for example, the roller 5 of each hanger-will rest upon the track 2a. When it is desired to open the door, should by chance one edge of the same tilt up, the lower part of the roller will leave the track 2f* and will engage the upper side'Zb of said track member, rolling thereon y with the same' degree of freedom that it would rbll upon the track proper. lt follows from the above' that' there is no possible way of jamming the door. Obviously, if the bracket carrying; tbe roller 'extendedv above said roller, this tiltingT movement Awould cause said bracket to engage theA top 2b, and the engagement would be suoli as to causo a cramping and binding. rl`liis, however, by the present improvement is entirely eliminated. The space within .the U-shaped bend of the track member provides a run-way for the roller 5.
In addition to its strenn'thenin0- function n., im
strip attached to and reinforcing said hangthe combination of a tracker run-Way, of a door having one or more hangers coperating' door having one or more' hangers coperating with said run-way and havingau strip con- 1G Witi'said run-WayV and having a protecting nesting and serving to reinforce'said hangers.
