  • Swing door pivot assembly
    Patent number: 5970660
    Abstract: A pivotable door assembly has stiles and rails which are coupled by brackets having side walls defining a channel opening at the outer ends thereof. Pivot inserts are seated in the brackets on one side of said door and include a body member slidably seated in the channel and a pivot member rotatably seated in the body portion and extending outwardly of said open outer end of said bracket for engagement with the floor and ceiling. The pivot inserts include adjustable fasteners seated in the body member and cooperating with the bracket for adjusting the position of said pivot insert along the length of said channel and thereby the length of the pivot member extending outwardly of the bracket. The body member is comprised of a base element and a movable element which seats the pivot member and is horizontally adjustable. A cover is desirably snap fit over the brackets.

  • Sliding door bottom roller assembly with a rotatable anti-jump member
    Patent number: 5927017
    Abstract: A roller assembly for a sliding door that slides along a track includes an anti-jump member engageable with the track to prevent the roller assembly from derailing. The roller assembly comprises a bracket adapted for attachment to the door, a roller mounting member slidably seated in the bracket, and a roller rotatably mounted on the roller mounting member for travel along the track. The anti-jump member is pivotably supported in and displaceably carried by the roller mounting member for movement between an extended operative position wherein an engagement portion on the lower end thereof rides in the track, and a retracted inoperative position, wherein the engagement portion is spaced upwardly from the track. The roller assembly is operable to slide the door with the anti-jump member in either the operative position or the retracted position.
