JOHN HOBBS BEAMISH, OF PONSONBY, AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND.
SASH-BAR FOR GLASS STRUCTURES.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 15, 1911.
Application filed February 24, 1908. Serial No. 417,492.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN Hones BEAMISH, a subject of His Majesty the King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, resident of Marine Parade, Ponsonby, in the Provincial District of Auckland and Dominion of New Zealand, architect and builder, have invented an Improved Sash- Bar for Glass Structures, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to roof constructions for glass houses, and it comprehends, primarily, an improved sash bar for supporting the panes of glass and for collecting the moisture which condenses on the faces thereof.
A structural embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein- Figures 1 and 2 are transverse sectional views, showing two forms of the improved sash bar.
As shown in said drawing, the sash bar has substantially the shape of an inverted T and it consists, essentially, of the base 1 and the stem 2, the latter element rising perpendicularly from the former and being arranged longitudinally of the same, midway At said edges are formed the upwardly-extending guards 3.
Stem 2 is provided at its upper end, in turn, with a pair of diverging clips 4, located upon opposite sides thereof and inclined upwardly and laterally in opposite directions. Each clip comprises upper and lower parallel jaws 5 and 6 spaced apart to receive the lower portions of the panes of glass 7 therebetween, the panes being likewise inclined upwardly and laterally in opposite directions and coming together to produce the main channel 8. In the present instance, the clips are shown as formed integral throughout with stem 2, and the seats for the panes are obtained by recessing the free edges of the clips this construction, however, is not strictly essential, it being necessary only that the two lower jaws be integral with the stem.
The two guards 3 are located at opposite sides of stem 2, and project upwardly from base 1, as originally stated; hence they form the outer side walls of the two auxiliary channels 9, of which said stem constitutes the common inner wall.
The arrangement of the various parts above described is such that the outer faces of the panes of glass will shed their moisture into the main channel 8, while the moisture condensing on the inner faces of said panes will drain into the two auxiliary channels 9, which latter are overhung completely by the panes and partly by the lower clip arms as well.
The bar as a whole is supported by a rafter which, in the construction shown in Fig. 2, is constituted by the flat beam 10'; in Fig. 1, the rafter is in the form of a T- beam 11 whose stem is received in a seat produced by cutting away a port-ion of the stem of the bar, the said seatterminating at substantially the point where the clips and stem meet.
I claim as my invention:
A sash bar for glass structures comprising, in combination, a base formed at its opposite side edges with upstanding longitudinal guards, a longitudinal stem rising perpendicularly from said base and located midway between said edges, said guards constituting the outer'side walls of a pair of longitudinal channels of which said stem constitutes the common inner wall; and a pair of clips located above said base on opposite sides of said stem and connected to the latter, each clip consisting of coacting upper and lower jaws arranged in spaced parallel relation to each other to receive the lower portion of a pane of glass therebetween and inclined upwardly and laterally, the jaws of one clip being inclined in the opposite direction from those of the other clip to incline the panes in the same manner and to cause them to come together and produce an elevated longitudinal channel for receiving the water draining from the outer faces of said panes, the water from the inner faces of said panes draining into the first-named channels.
