FIBEPBOOF WINDOW FOB WAREHOUSES.
Specification of Letters Intent.
Application'flled July 3, 1912. Serial No. 707.563.
To 11!. whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Orro M. BECK, a citizen of the United States of America, residing in New Yorla-in the borough of Brooklyn, county of Kings, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fireproof lVindows for Warehouses, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to fireproof windows for warehouses and other purposes in which the sash f ame comprises intersecting T ribsof wrong t iron (r steel, glass panes supported on the flanges of said ribs and bolted angle plates clamping the parts together.
T he invention has reference more specifically to the peculiar construction at the intersections of the T ribs.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents a front-elevation of my improved fireproof window for warehouses, Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse section on line 2, 2, Fig. 1, Fig. 3 represents on a large scale a vertical section on line 3-3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 represents on a large scale a horizontal section on/line 4--4 of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a per- 4 i ve view on a large scale of a fragment of/an upright rib with its peculiar triangular slot and a fragment of a transverse rib passed through said slot and having its lateral flanges swaged on either side of the main web of the vertical rib, the angle plates being omitted for purposes of illustration. Fig. 6 is a perspective view on a large scale of fragments of a vertical rib, a transverse rib, glass panes, vertical angle plates on 01 posits sides of the vertical ribs and closing the slot therein and horizontal. angle plates.
on the-transverse ribs, and bolts securing said parts.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the different figures of t drawing.
Referring to the drawing, a represents the upright ribs and b the transverse ribs of'thc frame of my improved fireproof window for warehouses and other buildings. The upright and transverse ribs a, b are comd of T bars which are rolled from steel or other suitable metal. The inwardly-pro jecting webs a of the T-shaped uprights a the frame are provided at the points where they are intersected by the transverse ribs b with triangular recesses a, as shown clearly in Fig. 5, so that the transverse ribs 1, and their webs b can be passed through the-upright ribs forming the frame. The heads of the transverse ribs 5 are punched up at their edges after the parts are connected, so as to form projections b for bolding the transverse ribs in proper position in the webs of the upright ribs. The outer faces of the top flanges or heads of the cross ribs rest against the inner faces of the top flanges or heads of the main ribs,'which makes a strong construction, there being no cutting away or reccssing of said heads or flanges. Each individual section or panel formed by the frame of the window is closed by a pane e of wire-glass,-which panes are supported against the heads of the upright and transverse ribs by means of angleirons (l, d that are attached to the webs by means of bolts 6?, said angle irons being made of the proper size so as to extend from the web of one transverse rib to the other and between the Webs of the upright ribs, as shown in Fig. 6. The angle-irons d, (3 hold the wire-glass panes firmly in position in the individual sections of the frame; The
vertical angle plates I! serve a double function of clamping the parts together and of closing the wide openings of the/slots a in the web a, of the vertical rib a, on opposite sides of the Web I) of the transverse ribb. The space formed between the heads of the vertical ribs 0 and the adjacent portions of the wire-glass panes is filled up with a layer of putty, also the space between the ends of the panes and the Webs of the transverse ribs b, so as to furnish a water-tight connection of the panes with the ribs of the frame. In one or more panels of the window the glass panes may be provided with auxiliary frames which are hinged or pivoted to the main-frame so as to permit the opening of the same for establishing ventilation when required; or the ent re frame may be hinged at one side or pivoted to center top and hottorn pivots for opening the window, or they may be balanced by conntenweights, or closed by springs when weights are not desired, and closed by suitable locking devices.
My improved fireproof window coml'iines Patented Feb. 16. 1915.
' resting on the flanges of the auxiliary ribs,
a streng and sclid construction with simplicity and ease of manufacture, is capable 0f resisting injury by fire or water, and proides u very reliable Window for warehouses end other buildings.
I claim:
1, In a fireproof Fv'l'lldOW the combination r'f metallic "i ribs having Wide Webs, auxiliary T ribs intersecting therewith, the wide webs having triangular closed slots adapted to lit and receive said auxiliary T ribs, and enrle disposed on oppesite faces of snnl Wide Webs and serving to close the'exportiens of said triangular slots at 0ppesite sides of said auxiliary ribs.
A fireproof window comprising main metallic T ribs having wide webs, auxiliary metallic T ribs intersecting therewith, the Wide webs having triangular closed slot-s adapted to fit and receive said auxiliary T ribs, glass panes disposed in the panels formed by said intersecting ribs, said panes and angle plates clamped against opposite faces of said wide webs and resting against said panes, said angle plates uniting said parts and elesing the exposed portions of said slots at opposite sides of said auxiliary ribs.
3. A fireproof Window comprising main metallic T ribs having wide Webs, auxiliary metallic T ribs intersecting therewith, the wide Webs having triangular closed slots adapted to fit and receive said auxiliary T ribs, glass panes disposed in the panels formed by said intersecting ribs, said panes resting on the flanges of the auxiliary ribs, angle plates clamped against opposite faces of said Wide webs and resting against said panes, sain angle plates uniting said parts and closing the exposed portions of said slots at opposite sides of said auxiliary ribs, layers of putty disposed between the margins of said panes and the heads of said metallic ribs, and bolts clamping said angle plates and ribs.
In testimony, that I claim the foregoing as my invention, I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
