ARTHUR WILLIAM PIRIE AND FRANK BQSS, OF NAPIER, NEW ZEALAND; SAID PIRIE ASSIGNOR TO SAID ROSS.
SLIDING SKYLIGHT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 15, 1913.
Application filed June 4,1913. Serial No. 771,702.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, ARTHUR IVILLIAM Puma and FRANK Ross, citizens of the Dominion of New Zealand, and residing at- Napier, in the Provincial District of Hawkes Bay, in the Dominion of New Zealand, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sliding Skylights, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to glazed skylights and has for its principal object the provision of a skylight which is slidable over the well hole to provide for ventilation.
According to our invention, the frame which carries the glass is slidable over a combing which is provided with guides therefor.
The frame may slide either across or with the pitch of the roof.
The invention is illustrated in the drawing wherein Figure 1 is a sectional side elevation of a slidable skylight constructed according to the present invention. 2 is a plan view of the skylight shown in Fig. 1, the left half thereof being a sectional plan taken .on the line l3-B of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is an end sectional elevation taken on the line rt -A, Fig. 1. Fig. a is a detail view of an antifriction roller carried by the slidable frame of the skylight, and Fig. 5 is a detail view of a clip for preventing upward movement of said. frame.
In the construction illustrated, the well or aperture in the roof, indicated by the numeral 1, is surrounded by a combing 2, the side walls 3 of which are secured, by rivets or other means, to angle iron guides 1 and 5, the ends of which are secured to the roof at 6 and 7.
The panes of glass 8 of the skylight are carried by a frame 9 which is slidable on the guides 4' and 5, and has raised headings 10 and 11 upon which the glass rests. EX- tending upwardly from the frame 9, at the center thereof is a bar 12, which is provided with screw-threaded pins 13, and the capping strips 14 and 15, which fit over the glass at the sides thereof, are connected by a central cross bar 16, which has apertures corresponding to the pins 13, and is secured to the bar 12 by means of the nuts 17 on said pins, thereby firmly holding the panes of glass in position in the frame.
The frame 9 is provided at one side there of with antifriction rollers 18 which bear on the upper surface of the guide l, and at the other side thereof with antifriction rollers 19, which bear against the edge of the guide 5. The rollers 18 are supported by bearings 20 riveted or otherwise secured to the frame 9, as shown in Fig. 1, and the rollers 19 are carried by bolts or pins 21 passing through said frame and secured by nuts 22, as shown in Fig. 3.
For the purpose of moving the frame 9 along the guides 4 and 5, to cover or uncover the aperture or well 1, ropes or cords 23 are provided, which are secured to eyes 24 at opposite ends of the frame 9, and which then pass over pulleys 25, arranged at the ends of the well 1, and extend into a convenient position for operation. It will be obvious that by pulling on one or the other of the cords 23, the frame 9 may be moved to cover or uncover the aperture 1 in the roof, as desired.
The capping strips 14 and 15 are provided with side flanges 26 and 27 for the exclusion of wind and rain, and an end strip 28 is formed with a flange 29 for the same purpose. The opposite end of the combing 2 supports an end plate 30 having an overhangingflange part 30 under which the end of the frame 9 passes when the skylight is closed. In this position the end of the frame abuts against the plate 30.
The frame 9 is prevented fro-m rising or being lifted from the guides at and 5 by means of clips or brackets 31 which are secured to the frame and engage the edges of the guides as shown in Fig. 5.
What we do claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
A sliding skylight construction comprising a combing surrounding the roof-opening on all sides and having at one side an upward extension with an inward flange, a pair of track bars running at about the level of the top of the combing running along two parallel sides thereof and extended beyond the combing wall opposite that having the extension, a glass carrying frame names to this specification in the presence of running on sald track bars and having side two Witnesses.
flanges depending outside said bars and an end flange depending therebetween and LIAM PIRIE' 5 movable to bring its forward end under the I inward flange of the combing extension Vitnesses: when the skylight is closed. HUGH B. LUsEE,
In testimony whereof We have signed our VALTER I-IUMPHRIEs.
