Patented Sept. 11, 1928.
UNITED STATES LAURA. B. HINMAN, OF SYRACUSE, NEW YORK.
SCREEN FOR WINDOWS OF AUTOMOBILES.
Application filed August 5, 1927- Setial No. 210,977.
This invention relates to screens for the doors and windows of automobiles and other vehicles, and has for its primary objectto provide novel means for screening the W111- 5 dow adjacent the drivers position, without excluding the light and air, or ObStIIICtIII the vision. A further object is toprovi e a woven-wire-screen, which is supported by a frame that may be rigidly attached to the l inner face of the left-hand door of an automobile, the said screen preferably having an areasubstantially equal to the light openlng in said door, and adapted to prevent flies,
bugs, and the like, from entering the said opening and annoying, distracting, or injuring the driver of the car. A further object is to'provide an opening in the web of said screen, which is preferably located within convenient reach of the driver, through which 2- the driver may "extend a hand for si 'alling the movements of the vehicle, the said opening preferably being protected by a permanent frame, and said opening being normally closed by a small screen-door, which is preferably hinged to the top member of the smaller frame and held in the closed position by gravity. This small door or panel is preferably so arranged that it may be readily opened outwardly by slight pressure exerted by the hand by which the signals are given.
And a further object is to provide similar,
but preferably plain screens, for all of the light openings of the vehicle.
I attain these objects by the means set forth in the detailed description which follows, and as illustrated by the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of an automobile to which my improvement is applied. Fig. 2 is an enlarged broken inside elevation of the left-front door of the vehicle, showing the means for securing the screen to the door; also showing the framed small opening for effecting manual signals. Fig. 3 is an outer face View of the apertured screen. Fig. 4 is an enlarged detached view of the door that closes the signal opening. Fig. 5 is a vertical crosssection, taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 3. And Fig. 6 is an enlarged broken vertical crosssection, taken on line 66 of Fig. 3.
In the drawing 2, re resents generally an automobile, 3 is the eft-hand front door having an upper frame portion com rising side members 33", and a top mem er 3, that border the usual light opening, as 3 3 represents collectively the other door and window openings of the car.
My lmprovement comprises a rectangular frame 4, whlch may be made of any suitable materlal, such as tin, brass, aluminum or wood. The side and end members of the frame are preferably folded u on themselves to prov1de sockets 4 (see Figs. 5 and 6). The frame 4 may be secured to the side members 3- by small nails, or like fasteners,
as 5. 6 represents a web of ordinary open mesh fly-screen, the four borders of which are dlsposed in the socket 4' of the main frame, and are gripped and held in place by the folded portions, when the latter are suitably compressed. Near the lower rear corner of the screen 6, the web is cut away for providmg a rectangular emergency opening as 6, whose margins are reinforced and protected by a smaller frame 7, which may be constructed and applied substantially as described for frame 4., except that the sockets 7 face outwardly. The opening 6 enables the driver of the vehicle to thrust his hand outwardly for indicating stop or turning movements,-a practice that is practically universally employed by operators of automobiles. The opening 6' is preferably normally closed by a small screen-door, as 8, in which the borders of the screen 8 are gripped in a frame 8*, that is preferably made like frame 4. The door 8 is preferably hinged to the top member of the frame 7, and therefore is normally held in the closed position, shown in Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 6, by gravity. The hinging of the door 8 is accomplished by forming the top member of the frame 7 w1th similar loops, as 7 which comprise integral portions of said member, as may be understood by consulting Fig. 6, and the top member of the frame 8 is cut away, as at 8", toprovide a main central loop 8, that lies between the loops 7, and the parts are pivotally held together bya pintle, as 7.
My invention is extremely simple, and may be'produced at small cost. The screen 4-6 not only effectually excludes insects and other wind driven matter, but being preferably disposed inside of the car, obviates all danger of injury resultin from broken glass, as well as thrown artlcles.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, is-
An automobile screen, including a screen covered frame having an opening, a second -fra1nc in the opening having a U-channel facing outwardly and receiving the edges of the screen covering which define said opening therein, the top side of the frame having 5 spaced extensions which are bent down- Wardly to engage the outer side of the channel and are then rolled upwardly and inwardly to engage said downwardly bent part of the extension to'form a plurality of loops, a door for the opening having a frame formed of U-channels which face inwardly, a covering for the door having its edges received in the last named channels, the top side of the door frame having cutaway parts to receive the loops of the second frame, and a pintle' extending through the loops and through the channel of the top side of the door frame.
In testimony whereof I affix m signature.
LAURA B. INMAN.
