0 all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, JOHN T. Snurson, a a citizen of the United States, and residing in Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented a certain new and useful Door and Window Structure, of. which the following is a specification.

The object I have in view is the pro uction of a dooror window structure, may be made entirely of metal, and w will be cheap to construct, which will. comply with the requirements of cities where fireproof doors and windows must be used in certain structures, and with other advantages as will more fully appear from the-fob lowing specifications and accompanying drawings, considered together or separately. In the drawings: Figure 1 is an elevation of two windows embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is an elevation o a door embodying my invention. Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3--3 of Fig. 1. Fig. l is a section on the line 4-'4. of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a section of the vertical and horizontal member which engages with the sash or panel. Fig. 6 is an enlarged view of the lower corner of a window or door, being taken on the line 6'6 of Fig. 7. Fig. 7 is a section, at right angles, of Fig. 6, taken on the line of Fig. 6. ig. 8 is a section on the line 8--8 of Fig. 6. I

In all of the views, like parts are desig: nated by the same reference characters. In carryin out my invention I provide 35 stiles 1, 1 an rails 2, 2, all the parts being roperly proportioned'for the purpose for I which they are intended. The stiles and rails are made of sheet material, preferably sheet steel, rolled in roper cross section. oftlie' stiles is shown in The edges 3 are bent inward an ,of the stile, and are then bent outward an upward, as shown, forming a gutter 0 section with a lip 16, as shown. the stile,.whioh engages ..hooked cross The inner face 0 with the sash or panel, is formed-of a mem'-.

her 4 of peculiar cross section, trated in Fig. 5. This member t has a web 5 and flanges 6, 6 on one side of the web.

' On the other side it is provided with a flange a 7, a flange 8, an

flange 9. The edge. of this flange!) toward the flange 8 may. be beveled or chamfered,

run parallel with the sides.

a larger intermediate sent to create an ornamental appearance. The. edges of the member are bent at 10. 'The size of the member is such that when used in connection with the stile and rails as described, the edges 3 of the latter will rest upon the outer faces of the two 6. The two parts are secured togather by bending the edges 10 into contact 5 with the hooked gutters 3, 3.

' Figs. (1 4. illustrate theposition that as shown,

. 3 an theedges 10 will-assume after they have been bent. The bending operation maybe conveniently done in a continuous operation by rolling, the flanges 6, 6 serving as supports to sustain the bases of the gutters 3 when the edges- 10 are being forced; into position. The flanges 7 8 andS support the glass of the window or the panel of the door. I prefer to make the support as shown in my co-pending application for patent, executed asof even date herewith filed September 8, 1910, Serial No. 581,023. For use in windows or doors in which putty shaken out, I prefer to use moldings 11, which lie between the glass 12, or panel, and the flange 7, clamping the lass or panel against the flange 9. uitable filling material 14 (as utty) may be. laced around the edge of t 'e glass. molding is securedin position by rivets or pins15. i

The joint between is made as follows: gutter 3 which comes in rail is straightened out, 8, the lip 16, as shown in ing obliterated. fore, rests against the gutter, flush outer surface and at the formin a foundation or the rai The'lower edges flanged inwardly at; 17 the rail is carried out; ment with such flanged portion. The parts .are suitably soldered or brazed tngether, it being apparent that the edge 3 andflangev F 17 will form a backing t prefer .to employ the well-knownmeth acetylene-oxygenwelding. j;-
