RADIATOR COVER Filed March 10, 1927 IN VENT OR Patented Mar. 19, 1929.
UNITED STATES JOEL COHEN, F MAYLEWOOD, NEW JERSEY.
RADIATOR COVER.
.Application filed March 10, 1927'. Serial No. 174,171.
This invention relates generally to covering devices, and has more particular reference to a novel covering structure for radiators.
The invention has for an object, the provision of a covering structure for radiators which can be readily adapted to fit any size radiator, the parts thereof being changeable to permit of changing them so as to match different surroundings, and which can be readily taken apart for convenience in shipp T he invention has for a further object, the
provision of a covering structure for radiators which can be manufactured and sold at a reasonable cost.
For further comprehension of the invention and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
Referring to thewaccompanying drawing 2 forming a material part ofthis disclosure:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a device constructed according to this invention, and in the background a fragmentary portion of a wall is illustrated.
Fig. 2 is a side view thereof.
Fig. 3 is a central vertical sectional view, taken on the line 3'3 of Figure 1. Fig. 4 is a horizontal sectional on the line 4-4 of Figure 1.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view, taken on the line 55 of Figure 1.
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a modified form of the irons forming the corners of the device.
' Fig. 7 is a perspective view of another modified form of the members forming the corners of the device.
Fig. 8 is an enlarged fragmentary horizon- View, taken tal sectional view, taken on the line 8-8 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 9 is a sectional view, taken on the line 9-9 of Figure 8. V
Fig. 10 is a fragmentary perspective view thereof.
The reference numeral 10 indicates generally vertical angle irons forming the corners of the device, and as can be readily seen in Figure 1, the long side of the device can be called the front, while the short sides can be called the ends. Secured to the tops and hottoms of the front and rear inner sides of the angle irons 10, are horizontally arranged straps 11 overlapping at the center of the device, as at 12, and these overlapping ends are secured together by screws or bolts 13. It should be understood that the bolts 13 may be removed for permitting any desired arrangement of the elements to be made for rendering the dimensions of the device suitable for radiators of different sizes. Vertical cover strips 14 extending from-the top of the device to the bottom, are also engaged and heldin place by the bolts 13, as clearly shown in Figure 8.
The straps 11 are formed on their inner sides with hook members 15, holding slidably, plates 16. It is not necessary to change the plates 16 with every adjustment of overlapping straps 11, since the vertical cover strip hides the spaced edges of the plates 16.
The ends of the device are closed by means of a lower door 17 pivotally secured by hinges 18 to one of the sides of one of the angle irons 10. Filler plates 19 slidably mounted in brackets 15 on the inner side of the angle irons 10, serve to close the upper portion of the sides of the device. Hingedly connected to the top of the rear vertical cover strip 14 by means of hinges 20 is a central cover 21 provided with slidable side fillers 22. A standard size humidifier pan 23 is supported on ,a support 24 above the radiator indicated in Figure 3 by dot-dash lines 25. The de-- vice is provided with suitable feet 26, and the device is shown standing near a wall 27 since radiators are usually positioned near walls. The inlet pipe 28 of the radiator may be suitably covered as shown at 29.
In the modification shown in Figure 6, a hinged angle iron 10 is shown, and it may be used in the device instead of the irons 10.
In Figure 7, an angle iron 10 is shown attached to a post 10", and these two may be used in the device instead of the irons 10. The post 10 adds strength to the iron 10 The straps 11 overlap as at 12, and are formed with adjacent serrated gripping surfaces 30. The vertical strip 14 is fastened to the outer of the straps 11 by screws 13, while the plates 16 are slidably supported in hooks 15 projecting from the straps 11. Pivotally mounted on the edge of one of the straps 11 is a lever 32, one end of the lever being slidably attached to a bar 38 in a cavity 34 in the other of the said straps 11, while the other end of lever 32 is locked against displacement by a pawl 35 pivotally mounted and urged of resorting to all such changes as may into locking position by a spring 36 coaxial with the pivotal point of the pawl. The amount of overlap of the straps 11 may be changed by manually disengaging the pawl 35 from the lever 32, manually urging the freed end of the lever downwards so that the end slidable on rod 33 acts to spread the straps 11 apart, said straps 11 may then be moved as desired and the serrations 30 again reengaged by the proper movement of the lever 32. Neat designs may be applied to the device, particularly to the plates 16 which are prominently exposed.
\Vhile I have illustrated and described the preferred form, construction, and arrangement of the several elements employed, it will be understood that the device is neveretheless, susceptible of considerable modification therein, and I therefore reserve the privilege e fairly embodied within the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
Having thus described my invention. what I claim as new, and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is 1. In a device of the class described,a pair said straps,
slidably supported in the said of overlapping straps having projecting hooks and serrated gripping portions formed on adjacent surfaces of the said straps, plates slidably supported in the said hooks, a lever pivotally mounted on the end of one of the the other of the said straps being formed with a cavity, a bar supported in the cavity, one end of said lever-being slidably attached to the bar, and a spring pawl acting against the other end of the lever to lock the straps with the gripping portions engaged.
2. In a device of the class described, a pair of overlapping straps having projecting hooks and serrated gripping portions formed on adjacent surfaces of the said straps, plates blocks, a lever pivotally mounted on the end of one of the said straps, one end of the lever being slidably attached to the other of the said straps, and a spring pressed pawl acting against the other end of the lever to lock the straps with the gripping portions engaged.
In testimony whereof I have aflixed by signature.
JOEL COHEN.
