CLARENCE A. FULLERTON, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
' To all whom it may concern:
METALLIC CONSTRUCTION.
Be it known that I, CLARENCE A. Funnier:- TON, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Metallic Constructions; and I do hereby declare.
the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable othersskilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to metallic 'constructions and more particularly to the formation of cages or booths for tellers in banking institutions or the like.
'It" has for an-object'toprovide a simplified form of construction for such devices, in that a number of fastening means are reduced to a minimum by the provision of an improved form of joint between the posts, bars and panel sections.
A further object of this invention is the improved form of a pedestal for supporting the frame structure to permit alinement of the top and bottom rails when the floor is uneven.
Further objects will be apparent from the following specification, appended claims, and drawings, in which,
Figure 1 is an elevation of a wall constructed in accordance with this invention,
Fig. 2 is a cross sectional view as on the line 22 of Fig. 1,
Fig. 3 is a similar view as on the line 33 of Fig. 1,
Fig. 4 is an enlarged detailed view partly in section, of one of the columns, showing the connection of the associated parts therewith Fig. 5 is a cross sectional view as on the line 55 of Fig. 4, and
Fig. 6 is a horizontal sectional view of a modified form of post.
This invention provides for the formation of a wall of a bank tellers booth or cage which may be formed by the repetition of a number of standard units and these units are so arranged that they may be assembled with a minimum number of fastening units.
Referring to the drawings, there is shown a wall composed of the top rail 10, bottom rails 11, posts 12 and panels 18,14 and 15. The bottom rails 11 and posts 12 are carried by fittings 16 which have tubular extensions 17 depending thereon, to receive the upper Specification of Letters Patent. Patented May 21, 1918.
Application filed June 28, 1916. Serial No. 106,517.
end of pedestals 18 and these'tubular sockets are so arranged as to permit the insertion of shims or other spacing member 19 to permit the bottom rails being alined. Each of the fittings 16 is provided with the removable plates 21 to permit access to the interior of the-hollow structure so that wires, rods, or. other fastening means may be secured to each other as they pass through the tubular rails 11 or posts 12. The top rails maybe secured to the posts 12 by having clips secured in the endsof the posts to receive screws or other fastenlng 'means passlng through the bottom wall ofthe top rail quite slmllar to the form shown in Fig. 4, in which the fastening means for the cross bars to the posts is shown, in which the clip 22 is secured to the post as by the screw 23 and wings from this clip pass into the tubular cross bars 24, where they are held by screws 25 which pass through the side walls of said cross bars and into said wings.
The under face of the top rail, the upper face of the bottom rail and the side faces of the posts and cross bars are formed with a chase or recess 26 therein, to receive the frames 27 of panels 13, 14L and 15 as the case may be, so that after said posts, top rail, bottom rails and cross bars are secured to each other, these panels are securely locked in the frame construction.
The panels may be inserted in the frame by sliding movement either in a vertical or horizontal direction and in either instance, the side wall is built up in the successive steps which are apparent to those skilled in the art.
A door 28, which may be of any desired construction simulating the remainder of the wall structure, is carried by the rollers 29 and hanger 30, of which the rollers 29 run in the track 31 which may be attached to the rear face of the top rail where desired, and this track and associated parts may be covered by an overhanging guard 32 which is also carried by this top rail. The top rail is provided with a removable cap 33 to permit access to the interior of the channel structure and to also permit access to the hanger for the door.
When the partition is made in accordance with this invention and is set up in a room having a limited height, the parts will be assembled as follows: The first column will be positioned after which the cross bars or sections of panels vvill then beslidjbletvveen the cross bars, afteravhich the n e xt colnmn will be so positioned as to loci ithebross bars and panel sections in fixed position.
operation is repeated until thentire al-t1: t1 11 1s complete. It 1s possible to asseihble" "made Within the'scope' of this invention without departing from the "spirit thereof,
.and.that'no'restriction is implied by'the limite'dviews. shown; 1
.fittiifgs'parried by the posts, said cross'fa'ces h'aving thei r rails grooved, and pane10sections insertible' between said posts and rails and means for locking said panel" sections Y estates said posts and fans additional posts and rails are added to the structure.
2. A phftitikiifcomprising hollow posts having the opposite faces thereof grooved, fittings cafried by said posts, cross rails secured between said posts to said fittings, said ci'os's rails having their faces grobved, panel sections insertible in the grooved portions of said cross rails and posts, said panel sections being adapted to be locked in said structure as. additional icrossrail's as posts are added t'hereto, ;and Tfoot .pi c'es carriedbysaid posts a o o: at'theebottonr'thereof,in the "fittings secured 'Haviiigthus described I this invention, I claim':'v
1. A partition; comprising posts having groovesformed'in the oppositefacesthereof, fittingsfcarried by said posts; crossrail's between the posts secured "at thein ends wane to said "posts at the lower end thereof, said foot; pieces havingv adjustable connections with" said fittings," to permit adjustment of the foot pieces with the frame to, provide for anyvvariations of the floor.
