Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 24, 1914.
Application filed October 27, 1913. SeriaI No. 797,547.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CORNELIUS G. SOIL: LIGO, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the city of St.
Louis and State of Missouri,have invented certain new and useful Improvements 1n WVindow and Door Screens, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact descrip tion, reference being had to the accompanying draw1ngs,.form1ng a part of this specification.
, My invention relates to a screen for windows or doors, and moreparticularly to a frame for holding screen cloth, the object being to produce a simple and inexpensive means for detachably securing the screen cloth to a screen frame.
The preferred form of my invention com prises frame pieces,each having a longitudi I nal abutment and a longitudinal groove for the receptionnof the screen cloth, combined with retainer strips extending into said grooves to secure the screen cloth, the retainer strips, being provided with detent members yieldingly engaging said longitudinal abutmentjs.
Figure I is a front elevation, partly broken away, showing a corner portion of my screen structure.
Fig. IV is an enlarged cross s ectionvillustrating a fixed frame piece and a retainer strip detachably fitted thereto.
The frame structure comprises frame pieces A, preferably of sheet metal, connected together at the corners of the screen by rivets 1, or other suitable fastening means. Eachframe piece A consists of a back member 2, an abutment in the form of a bead 3extending from the outer edge of said back member, and a flange 4 turned backwardly from the inner edge of the back member to produce a longitudinal groove or channel 5. The heads 3, as well as the flanges 4, are cut away near each end of the frame pieces, as seen in Fig. III, to
match the bead and flange of an adjoining frame piece.
6 designates an angular or L-shaped cor-v Fig. II is a rearelevation of the structure shownin Fig. I. Fig. III isa detail View of an end portion of one of the frame pieces.
ner rod inserted into the adjoining beads 3 to reinforce the connected frame pieces.
The margins of the screen cloth 7 are insorted into the grooves 5, at the inner edges of the frame pieces A, and retainer strips B secure the screen. cloth to the frame. Each retainer strip I3 is preferably in the form of a sheet metal clip having alongi: tudinal detent flange 8, yieldingly fitted to and formed with a body portion 9 extending from said abutment to the groove 5. The body portion 9 extends across the back member 9., and its inner edge is firmly engaged with the screen cloth 7. The abutment 3 and the detent flange 8 are preferably yield- I able, so that the retainer strip may be readily shifted from the position shown in dotted lines, (Fig. IV), to the position shown in full lines. The retainer strip is I thus firmly secured to the frame piece A,
the inner face of the bead or abutment 3,
and it may be readily removed by disengaging the detent flange 8 from abutment 3. Each frame piece consists of a sheet of metal folded on itself to produce the bead 3 andthe reinforced back member 2, the latter being formed by two layers of metal as shown inFig. IV. The reinforcing layer of metal forming part of the backing member, terminates in the screen receiving groove or channel 5 and the retainer stripB;
extends between the terminal edge of said reinforcing layer and flange 4: so as to force thescreen cloth into engagement with said terminal edge. By reinforcing each frame piece, as shown in Fig. IV, I produce a very strong and simple screen structure, and by forcing the screen cloth into engagement with the terminal edge of the reinforcing element the screen is very securely held in the groove or channel 5. a
I claim A screen structure comprising frame pieces, each of which comprises a sheet of metal bent to form a screen receivingchannel and folded on itself to form a backmizmher and a bead extendingfrom, the outer edge of said back member, the back member being formed by two layers of the folded sheet metal,one of said layers being a rein- I forcing element havingits terminal edgelo- I catecl Within said screen receiving channel, cloth into engagement With the terminal a sheet of screen cloth having its margins edge of one of said reinforcing elements. arranged in the screen receiving channels,
and retainer strips each having a detent CORNELIUS SCILLIGO' flange yieldingly fitted to one of said beads in the presence of V and a body portion extending into a screen E, K. CLARK,
receiving channel so as to force the screen E. B. LINN.
