Application filed December 2G, 1919. Serial No. 347,361.
To all Lo/10m t may concern.' Fig. 10 is a perspective view of the lower Be it known that I, IVILLIAM S. VITTEN, post bracket of Fig. 7; Y Y
a citizen of the United States, and a resi- Fig. 11is a view showing a modiied form dent of Chicago, in the county of Cook and of post bracket. 60
tate of Illinois, have invented certain new a Referring now to Figs. 1 to 5,*15 indiand useful Improvements in IIinges, of Cates a concrete gate post of any approved which the following is a specification, reftype, having brackets v16 and 17 embedded erence being had to the accompanying therein. As is clearly shown in Fig. 4, the drawings. v upper post bracket 16 comprises an v`o'ut- 65 This invention relates tol hinges and par- Wardly extending arm .p16a having an eye ticularly to hinges for mounting gates in or socket 18 at its outer end, anintermediposition so as to be capable of swinging in ately disposed face plate`19 which is adapteither direction for opening the gate. It ed to abut against the post'15,'an inwardly is the principal object of my invention to extending arm 1Gb adapted to be embedded 70 provide a simple construction ofhinge which inthe gate post, a web 2O which extends shall have a wide applicability by reason of along the arm 16a from the socket 18 to and being adjustable to t varying conditions, along the arm 16", and kassists in holding and which shall have very great strength the bracket against lateral movement withand iirmness so as to resist the wear and tear in the post` 15, and oppositely projecting to which gates are subjected ,in use. My toes 21 carried by the arm 16h which preimproved structure is especially designed vent withdrawal of the bracket lfrom the for meeting the requirements of a complipost. The bracket 17 is similar in general cated system of yards and gates such as is to the bracket 16, and comprises an outcharacteristic of stockyards at loading and Wardly extending arm 172Vprovidecl with a 80 unloading points on railroads and about socket 22 which is closed at its lower end packing plants.

In Fig. 1 a gate 28 of any ap- F ig. 8 is an enlarged detail, being a horie proved type is mounted upon the rod or zontal cross-section taken on line 8 8 of pipe 27 by means of hinge plates 29 which Fig. 7; Y are secured to the gate in the construction 110 Fig. 9 is a detailed view of t-he upper post shown by means of suitable bolts, being probracket of the construction shown in Fig. 7; vided at their outer ends with eyes .or sockets 30 having a working it upon the rod 27. The lower one of the hinge'plates 29 is su-pported against downward movement upon the rod 27 by means of a collar 31 which is held adjustably in position-.upon lthe rod 27 by means of a bolt 32 passing through any one of a plurality of holes 33 through the rod 27. For closingthe .upper end of the rod 27 which is shown in the Jform ot a pipe, acap 84is provided.
In the construction .shown in Fig. (3 a wooden post 35 isemployethanda. modified form or' bracket 36 is emploved therewith in Iwhich lagscrews are used Vfor connecting thebracket to the post in lieu of having the ybracketextend yinto `the .post as is Vabove described.
Referring lnow te Figs. to l0, which Ashow vmodified forms of post brackets, the same ,reference characters have been used to indicate similar parts. In :this construction the post brackets are `secured .upon Ta corner of the post instead of upon one Yside (face, Yas `is .shown in the construction iirst described. The upper corner bracket which isindieated by vthe numeral 3T (see Fig. 9) is Aprovided with an eye `or socket 38, with two face z*plates 39 .adapted to bear against adjacent `faces of .the post, with a web 40, corresponding ,to the web 2O of the other construction, :and with toes V4l corresponding tothe toes 2l. The lower corner bracket, which is indicated Vby .the numeral 42 (see Fig. 10;) `is .provided .with a socket 43, webs 44 andv v45 ,by which the socket portion of the lbracket is .brac-ed with vrespect to `the face-plates 46, with a web 4? corresponding to the web y25 of ,the .bracket 17, and with a head 4.8 by .which the bracket is held against withdrawal from the post.
In Fig. l1 a form of bracket 49 is illustrated, adapted vto .be used upon a wooden post 50, :the plates 5l and 52 corresponding to the face-plates 39.01" 46 of ythe structures shown in Figs. 9 ,and l0, being provided with suitable holes for lag screws for attachment .to the post in lieu ot `the ymeans of rattachment employed where a concrete post ,is used, `as above described.
vBy the use of my improved form of hingvheight of the gate above the ground can very readily be changed within reasonable limits Vas may be desired. By the use ot' the construct-ions shown in Figs. T -to 11, a gate can be kmounted so as Ato be tree to swing through an are of 270o as shown by the two positions oi the gate in Fig. 8. In V such systems ot pens ant run-ways as those employed in stockyards this .feature fis of very considerable importance.
That I claimas my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A hinge bracket Comprising an arm adapted to be embedded in va gate .pos-t,.a
vertical tace plateat the .outer end por-tion ot' sai-d .arm and .adapted to bear ,against the gate post,- a vertical web ,extending along said arm from said face plate in posi-tion to be embedded in the gate post, and means extending outward beyond said face plate for engaging a cooperating hinge member.
2. A hinge bracket comprising a horizontally-disposed member, a face lplate at the .inner end por-tionoiI `and /atright angles to `Said member, an arm extending inwardly from said Vface plate adapted to be imbedded in 4a gate post, fa socket yat the `outer end vportion @fsa-id meinberand an integral vertical web between said member and the wall of said socket.
3. A hinge mechanism comprising a rod, a plurality .of hinge-plates adapted -to be secured to a gate and ,revolubl-y Vmounted on said rod,v and a pair of brackets imbedded in a conc-rete gate post and .extending diagonally outward from one `(20ml-er 0f the post, each O said brackets having a turned portion at its inner end for preventing its withdrawal from the post.l ,having a horizontally positioned web for holding the bracket against lateral movement with respect :to the post, and having two `face-plates adapted to rest against adjacent -faoes olf .said post.
