Description

J. L. GILL. WINDOW SCREEN. APPLICATION FILED MAR. 20, 1914.
Patented Mar. 23, 1915.
THE NORRIS PETERS CO.. FHOTOYLITHOH WASHINGTUN. LL ((4 JAMES L. GILL, or ianinenron, NEW JERSEY.
NINDOV -SCREEN.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, JAMEs L. GILL, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Bridgeton, in the county of Cumberland and State of New Jersey, have invented new and useful Improvements in Window- Screens, of which the following is a speci fication.
This invention relates to window screens, and particularly to that class in which a ortionof the frame thereof is adjustable and adapted to contract and expand, to conform to varying widths of window frames, as well as to readily, and removably secure the screen in place within the grooves in which the window sashes slide.
Another object is to provide a resilient means for removably securing either or both of the adjustable portions of the screen frame in contracted position.
Further advantages of the invention are fully brought out in the following specification, when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a in its preferred form; Fig. 2 is a sectional view on the line 2-2 of the Fig. l; and Fig. 3 is a sectional view on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawings, a window screen frame is shown as comprising upper and lower sections 1 and 2, end sections 3 and a woven wire gauze 4. The sections 3 are narrowed, as shown in Fig. 3, and cooperate with separate, relatively movable sections 5, having an extension 6, adapted to slide uponthe adjacent sections 3 as the positions of the former are shifted with respect thereto, to prevent flies or other insects from passing therebetween.
Between the adjacent sections 3 and 5 and tending to press the same apart are resilient members 7 preferably secured to the former and frictionally engaging the latter. On
the other hand, to prevent a total separation of said sections, pins 8, having angularly bent portions 9, are secured to the adjustable sections 5 and pass inwardly through apertures 10 in the sections 3, said bent portions being slidable in recesses 11 and normally inclosed by a plate 12.
of the length ofthe Substantially midway sections 3 are apertures 15, through which bent; end
resilient pins 16, having reversely Copies of this patent may be obtained for Specification of Letters Patent.
front elevation of the device 7 Patented Mar. 23, 1915.
Application filed March 20, 1914. Serial No. 826,063.
said sections are forced inwardly, the resiliency of said pins, after they are moved longitudinally inward, causes said portions 17 to snap upwardly into the position shown inFig. 1, wherein they cooperate with the inner surface of the sections 3 to temporarily maintain the sect1ons'5 1n contracted position. From this posltion said last-named sections will snap outwardly into engage:
ment with the window frame 20, upon pressing downwardly upon the bent portions 17, thus permitting the springs 7 to force the pins outwardly through the apertures 15.
In devices of this character, after moving 7 the adjustable sections inwardly before placing the screen in the window frame,
there is no means for temporarily retainingthem in such position and from which they can be readily released. lhis device par ticularly provides such a device, however, may be altered in its details of construction and operation, and yet fall within the spirit of the present invention as well as within I claim: a
A window screen comprising a frame, the end rails of which are narrower than the top and bottom rails thereof, a wire mesh fabric supported by the frame, the said end rails being formed with slots, leaf springs fixed in spaced relation to each other at the outer edges of the end rails of the frame, extensiwhich,
the scope of the appended claim,
ble sections having cut-away portions for refive cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents,
Washington, D. G.
of the frame whereby upon the said sections same from the frame-and.
