T 0 all coll-0m it may concern: V
Be it known that I, MIoHAnL'LoY, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Brooklyn, county of Kings, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Awning Attachments, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a novel attachment for awnings, by means of which the textile body of the awning when lowered, is effectively held in position, so that any ob jectionable fluttering or rattling during a storm is prevented. i
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is a perspective view of part of an awning embodying my invention; Fig. 2 a longitudinal section through the runner and slide; Fig. 3 a bottom view of theslide and, Fig. 4 a plan thereof.
The textile covering or body 1 of the awning is at its lower or free end connected to the outer end of an outrigger bar 2, the inner apertured end of which encompasses 1- screw stud 3, extending laterally from a tubular runner 4 and carrying a nut 5. Runner 4, is adapted to slide up or down along a rod 6, affixed to the window frame or similar support 7, all as usual. Above runner 4, rod 6 is loosely encompassed by a locking slide 8, which is adapted to be supported on the runner. This slide is made of tubular form, but has referably a flattened outer section or facet 9 furnished with a boss 10. The facet and boss have a threaded hole which is engaged by a screw 11, by means of which the slide may be clamped to rod 6. At its inner surface or bore, slide 8 is provided at the side opposite to clamp screw 11, with a plurality of parallel knife edge ridges 12, which are arranged at right angles to the axis of the slide. As the clamp screw is tightened up, these ridges will be forced against the rod, so that in this way any slipping of the slide under strain is efiectively prevented.
At its lower end, slide 8, is furnished with a belled mouth or flaring recess 13, which is of such a size as to receive the upper end of runner 4, the outer diameter of the runner being for this purpose somewhat less here than that of the slide. Along its beveled moved up along the rod, by the pressure of the wind against the body of the awning.
Owing to the teeth 14 that grip the upper telescoped end of the runner, the slide will likewise prevent the wind pressure from causing a rotary movement of the runner upon the rod, so that in this way any tearing or fluttering of the awning as well as any accompanying objectionable rattling is effectively prevented.
When the awning is to be raised, screw 11 is slackened, so that runner 4 when ascending along rod 6 in the usual manner, will carry slide 8 with it. It will be seen that my attachment may not only be applied to new awnings, but may be readily installed on awnings already in use.
I claim: I 1. An awning comprising a covering, a runner operatively connected thereto, and a rod encompassed by the runner, combined with a tubular slide mounted on the rod above the runner, said slide having a lower belled and serrated mouth adapted to receive the upper end of the runner, and a clamp screw tapped into the slide and adapted to engage the rod.
2. An awning comprising a covering, a runner operatively connected thereto and a rod encompassed by the runner, combined with a tubular slide mounted on the rod above the runner, said slide having a lower belled and serrated mouth adapted to receive the upper end of the runner, a plurality of inner ridges, and aclamp screw tapped into the slide and adapted to draw said ridges against the rod.
