April 21, 1931. .1. HUBER ET AL WINDOW AWNING Filed Feb. 25, 1929 L f e M www y @K 9 w Patented Apr. 21, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE JOI-IN HUBER, OF ST. InOUIS, AND MEYER ROSENTRE-TER, OF UNIVERSITY CITY, MISSOURI, ASSIGNORS TO JACOB RUBIN, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI WINDOW AVNING Application filed February 25, 1929. Serial No. 342,406.
This invention relates to Aan improvement in awnings for windows and is co-relative to our pending application, Serial No. 130,854, iiled August 23, 1926, and also has for one of its objects, the purpose of providing an awning and anV improved frame structure therefor which is simple and inexpensive in its manufacture and in the hanging or mounting thereof.
A further object of therinvention is in providing the frame of the awning of a construction to simplify packing and shipping.
Otherk and further objects will appear in the specificationV and be specifically pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, exemplifying the invention, and in Which:-
Figure 1 is a perspective view of this improved awning showing it in alowered position.
Figure 2 is a transverse vertical section taken approximately on the line IL-II of Fig. 1.
Figure' 3 is a With'reference to the accompanying drawings 1 designates avwindow frame and secured to the upper cross member 2 of said frame area pair of brackets 3 for the supiport of the pins 4 of a roller 5, and secured 9, each section being made of a single material length which is bent so as to form a vertically disposed guiding leg 10, each leg having a shoe 11 at its lower end. Securing means such as a screw 12 is passed throughV each shoe for securing the lower end of each Y leg -to the window frame. The upper end of each leg 10 is bent Voutwardly as designated at 13 and extending downwardly from each portion 13 is a portion 14, each of which de- Ypends adjacent a respective leg 10.
Each of the portions V14 at its lower end terminates into a horizontally disposed portion 15. -The horizontallydisposed portions 15 are relatively short in length and when the 5o sectionsf8y and 9 are securedin vposition on the front elevation of right and e 2.5 4left frame sections on'a reduced scale.
window frame 1 by the screws 12 and hooks 16 which support the uper ends of the sections, said portions 15 will be in horizontal alinement, and turnably supported at its ends on respective portions 15, is an idle rollpr 17, said roller in this instance being tubu- Lar.
Slidably mounted on each leg 10 is a shoe 18 each having a pair of ears and secured between the ears of each shoe by a pin 19 is a leg 20 of a projecting frame 21, said legs 20 being joined by a horizontally disposed cross portion 22 of the frame 21.
A winding spool 23 is mounted on one end of the roller 5, said spool being for the reception of a tape or cord 24 which is secured atv one end to the spool for revolving the roller 5 in a winding direction.
As aforementioned one end of the fabric 6 is secured to the roller 5 whereas the lower end of the winding fabric is secured at 25 to the cross portion 22 of the projecting frame 21.
When an awning and frame of this improved character has been secured to a winv dow frame or the like and it is desired to lift or roll the awning from the positions shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the tape 24 is engaged and pulled, and as one end of the tape is secured to the spool 23, the unwinding of the tape from the spool will cau-se the roller 5 to turn thereby rolling or winding the awning fabric 6 thereon, and as the legs 20 of the projecting frame 21 arepivoted to respective shoes 18, said projecting frame 21 will be swung upwardly to an approximate vertical position adjacent the window frame.
As the turning of the awningis continued, the projecting frame 21 will be pulled upwardly and said frame 21 will be elevated between the idle roller 17 and the window frame and simultaneous therewith, the shoes 18 will be moved upwardly on respective legs 10 and by continued pulling on the tape, thel cross portion 22 of the frame 21 will be elevated to an approximate abutting position with the underside of the roller 5, the awning fabric being completely deposited or wound on saidk roller.
After the awning has ,been raised and wound on the roller 5, it is held in this position by wrapping the extending end of the tape 24 around the securing member 26 which is fastened to the window frame 1.
When it is desired to lower the awning, the tape 24 is unfastened from the member 26 and the weight of the projecting frame 21 will pull the awning fabric 6 downwardly thereby unrolling the fabric from the roller 5, said frame 21 lowering until the shoes 18 thereof abut respective bent portions 27 of the legs 10 and at this position of engagement of the shoes 18, the cross portion 22 of the frame 21 will be on a plane below the idle rol er 17, and said frame will swing outwardly neath the roller thereby projectingr the lower portion of the awning fabric outwardly from the window frame to a position where the fabric will be drawn taut by pressing against the underside of the idle roller 17.
Obviously, the projecting frame 21 can be held in different positions by holding the projecting frame in different positions of suspension.
In mounting this improved awning frame and awning to a window, each section 8 and 9 is first mounted in alining positions with re- Spect to one another against the window frame 1 on respective hooks 16 and are then secured at their lower ends by the screws 12 and after the mounting of the sections, an idle roller 17 of the required length is engaged at one end over one off the horizontal portions 15 of a respective section and the downwardly extending portion 14 of the other section is swung outwardly at its lower end to permit the horizontal portion 15 of the other section to be engaged in the opposite end of the roller. lVitli this improved sectional frame, it is obvious that the handling, packing and shipping thereof can be expeditiously carried out.
t is to be noted that the portion 13 of each Section 8 and 9 is turned outwardly from one another in a manner wherein the portion 14 which extends downwardly from respective portions 13 will be disposed outwardly from respective legs 10, each of the portions 14 however inclining inwardly as they depend downwardly to pass adjacent the legs 10. (See Fig. 3.) This outward turning of the portions 13, provides for there being ample width between the upward ends of the portions 14, so that the projecting frame 21 can readily travel upward without striking either of the portions 14 in the event that the awning fabric is shifted endwise on the roller during upward or downward travel.
While a winding spool 23 and a tape 24 Wound on the spool is shown for the purpose of operating the roller 5 in a winding direction, it is however obvious that a spring roller can be provided to a winding structure of this improved character in which the downward pulling of the awning fabric would charge the spring of the roller, and the charged spring would subsequently turn the roller in a winding direction.
