underhung
Hanging from below
Underhung describes something suspended from above or projecting from below.
An underhung jaw protrudes beyond the upper jaw—the lower teeth closing in front of the upper.
In machinery, an underhung door or crane hangs from a track or rail above it rather than sitting on supports below: The underhung sliding door saved floor space.
