WEATH ER=STRI P.
SPECIFIQATIONforming part of Letters Patent No.320,120, dated June 16,1885.
Application filed April 30, 1885. (No model.)
To aZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, J OSEPII FISHER, a citi zen of the United States, residing at Attleborough, in the county of Bristol and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in feather-Strips; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure l is a perspective view of a portion of a door and frame provided with my improvements. Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of the same, and Fig. 3 is a section taken on the line w x of Fig. 2.
This invention has for its object to produce a simple, cheap, and durable weatherstrip of few parts, and one that may be readily attached to any door, and not liable to get out of repair.
To this end the invention consists in the several details of construction, substantially as shown in the drawings, and hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, similar letters denote corresponding parts in all the figures.
My improvements are applicable to any door or shutter closing an opening, whether sliding or turning on a pivot; but to simplify matters they are shown in the present instance as applied to a door, A, of ordinary construction. Brackets 13, attached to the doorin any suitable manner, pivotally support the hingebar 0, which is weighted at its rear end to gravitate between its pivotal connection and the door. A strip, D, is secured to the hingebar 0 by bolts E, passing therethrough and through flanges or extensions G, integrally cast with the hinge-bar. A strip, F, of rubber or metal,is adj ustably secured between the bar 0 and hinge-extensions G by the bolts E passing through slots f, formed therein. The hinge at any suitable point is cut away, as at c, and is provided with a projection, e, to whichispivotally connected a trip-bar, G, slotted near its forward end, and held to place in a recess, a, in the bottom of the door by a screw, H, passing through its slot. The free end of the tripbar G is provided with an extension, 9, so that when closing the door the extension, when brought against a stop, 9, formed on the sill K, as shown in Fig. 3, will cause the strip F to close tight against the sill. This stop 9 is preferably formed by cutting away a portion of the sill; or any suitable stop may be pro vided, as found most practicable. Abraeket or stop, H, attached to the frame of the door, assists in forcing the strip close to the silland holding the same there when the door is closed. The brackets B, which are secured to the door, are provided with flanges b, integral therewith, with their outer faces set at an incline in conformity to the slant of theinclined portion of the overhanging plate or cap I, to which they are secured, thereby strengthening and bracing the same. These arms are cut away, as at Z), to limit the upward movement of the outer portion of the hinge carrying the strip D, which latter is likewise cut away, leaving a portion extending beyond to contact with the bracket. It will be seen that the plateDis secured to the hinge-bar O by the same bolts which serve to adjust the strip F, thereby producing a more economical construction. It will be further noticed that the flanges or extensions 0 of the hinge not only serve as a means for securing the strip thereto, but also as a means forbrac ing and strengthening the same, thereby permitting the use of comparatively light material.
In practice, the parts being adjusted as above described, the hinge-bar carrying the strip, when the door is open, will assume the position shown in Fig. 3, and when the door is closed will occupy the position shown in Fig. 1 in consequence of the trip-bar contacting with the stop 9 and the strip striking against the stop-bracket H.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination of a Weatherstrip with a weighted single hinge-bar having lateral extensions to brace said strip and serve as means for securing the two together.
2. The combination, with a door, of a weighted hinge-bar connected therewith and carryingaweather-strip, of a trip-bar pivoted In testimony that I claimthe above I have to said hinge-bar and slotted near its forward herenntosubscribed my name in the presence end, and a keeper passing through said slot to of two witnesses. illfld the trip-lever close to the under side of, his
5 e door. i i l 3. The combination of a weather-strip and mZE its cap-plate With a bracket pivotally supporting said strip, and provided with lateral Witnesses: flanges having an inclined face to brace and JOSEPH W. OAPRON,
1o strengthen said cap -p1ate, substantially as FRANK I. BABCOOK.
shown and described.
