I glwmzwbo'c Albert LMiers Mme/1 1 ALBERT L MIERS, 0F INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA.
AUTOMOBILE-DOOR BUMPER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 18, 1920.
Application filed December 26, 1918. Serial No. 268,284.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I ALBERT L. MIERs, a citizen of the United tates, residing at Indianapolis, Marion county, and State of Indiana, have invented and discovered certain new and useful Improvements in Automobile-Door Bumpers, of which the following is a specification.
My said invention consists in certain improvements in the details of construction of bumpers for doors, especially designed for the doors of automobiles, whereby a bumper of the type mentioned is provided of a comparatively inexpensive structure and one that can be renewed when worn out also without much expense, and one that may be attached and detached conveniently and expeditiously, all as will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
Referring to the accompanying drawings which are made a part hereof and on which similar reference characters indicate similar parts,
Figure 1 is a view in elevation of the frame surrounding the door opening of an automobile, the door being shown in opened position, i
Fig. 2 a detail view as seen when the door is nearly closed showing the door in section and the face of the frame and the bumpers in elevation,
Fig. 3 a detail cross section on the dotted line 3-3 in Fig. 2,
Fig. 1 a detail view showing the bumper in front elevation, and
Fig. 5 a detail view showing the same in edge elevation.
In said drawings the portions marked A represent the frame of the doorway opening and B the door.
The edge of the door has cup-shaped metal bumper members 10 mounted thereon in position to contact with the bumpers when the door is closed, as usual.
The bumper proper consists of a metal housing having a block of rubber 12 secured therein. Said housing is stamped out of a single piece of sheet metal, the base part 11 thereof having anraperture for an attaching screw 13 and alsobeing formed with a brad 14: formed by cuttlng a V- shaped piece of the metal in the stamping operation and turning it outward at right angles from the said base. The end 15 of said housing is bent at right angles to the base 11 and its outer edge is turned over forming an inturned flange 16, which eX-' tends inward parallel with said part 15. The block of rubber 12 is formed with a recess in its edge in which the turned in flange 16 engages.
Said block of rubber is inserted in position by forcing the edge between its recess and its inner face behind the flange l6, bringing said flange into said recess, and forcing the other faces of the block back into the corner formed between the parts 11 and 15. This bumper is attached to the face of the frame of the doorway opening, as indicated in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, the brad lt being driven into the face of the frame and the attaching screw 13 inserted. The block of rubber may be placed in position either before the metal plate is attached or afterward, as preferred. As a rule the metal plate is first attached which enables the brad 14 to be driven into the face of the frame more readily and the screw 13 inserted. The face 17. of the rubber block serves as the contact face for the bumper on s 10 when the door is closed.
aving thus fully described my said invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. The combination with a supporting structure, of a plate secured to the structure and having a portion first turned outwardly at substantially right angles and thence turned substantially at right-angles and parallel with the plate, thence turned again at right-angles and directed toward but stopping short of the body of the plate, the intcrval between being greater than the length of the third side, the rectangle indicated by the four side portions having its shorter dimension parallel with the body of the plate, and a resilient body having a slot receiving and embracing the fourth mentioned side of the plate member and having its major portion without the indicated rectangle and bearing against the body of the plate.
2. The combination with a supporting structure, of a plate having three substantially perpendicular bends comprising three approximately right-angles of a rectangle the fourth side stopping short of the body of the plate by an interval not less than the length of the third side, and a resilient memmy hand and seal at Indianapolis this 18th ber having a slot embracing the fourth side day of December, A. D. nineteen hundred and bearing upon the first side and so proand eighteen.
portioned that the minor part of the rev ALBERT L. MIERS. [L.s.] 5 silient member is Within the rectangle pro- Witnesses: v
duced by completing the fourth side. MARTHA MARTINDALE,
In Witness whereof I have hereunto set M. L. SHULER.
