Description
PHILWA. MONTROY, OF SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS.
AUTOMATIC AUTOMOBILE-TOP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed June 24, 1916. Serial No. 105,652.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PHILIP A. Mon'rnor, a citizen of the United States, residlng at San Antonio, in the county of Bexar and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Automatic Automobile-Tops, of which the following 1s a specification.
This invention relates to vehicle tops, and more particularly has for its object the provision of a vehicle top, which may be readily removed and positioned-in an out of the way or inoperative manner.
The primary object, of the invention resides in the provision of a device of the character described wherein means are provided for the rolling ofna curtain upon a spring actuated drum, so that when in an inoperative position the same is so arranged as to constitute a neatly appearing and weatherproof roll.
Another object of the invention, is to provide side curtains similarly mounted, whereby the vehicle may be readily closed upon all sides, consequently protecting occupants from the elements.
The invention also contemplates the provision of means whereby the top and side curtains may be readily moved into an operative position by the occupant of the vehicle, without the necessity of leaving the same, the said means comprising a rotary drum, which is provided with the usual pawl and ratchet mechanism to prevent itsaccidental unwinding any further, with a crank member whereby said drum may be readily rotated.
A further important characteristic of the present invention resides in the means whereby the top and side curtains are sup ported, the said means including a pivotally supported frame member, which member may'be swung from an inoperative position into an operative position'through the medium of a suitable connection, operatedby means of a foot lever, conveniently positioned before the occupant of the car.
Other features of the invention reside in an improved manner whereby the top is rendered sufiiciently rigid to allow the same to be readily adapted )to be used for the purpose for which it is'desired, that is, in pro viding the same with semi-rigid cross pieces or slats which are secured thereto by suitable fastening devices.
All of the foregoing together with additional advantageous details and arrangement of parts of the preferred embodiment of my invention will be clear from the specific description hereinafter contained, when read in connection with the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein said embodiments of the invention are illustrated for the purpose of facilitating full understanding of the present invention.
In thedrawingsF- Figure 1 is a side elevation of a motor vehicle showing my improved device applied;
Fig. 2 is a rear elevation, portions thereof broken away and illustrating the manner in which the top and side curtains are supported;
Fig. 3 is a perspective of the frame for supporting the top and side curtains;
Fig. i is a fragmentary detail in' perspective showing the construction and arrangement of the top and side curtains;
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary detail in perspective of the top, showing the flap used for securing the side curtains thereto in a folded position, and ready for rolling;
Fig. 6 is a detail in side elevation of the winding drum whereby the curtain is unroled and moved into an operative position; an
Fig. 7 is a fragmentary view in detail showing the construction and arrangement of the foot lever for raising the pivoted supporting frame into an operative position.
Referring now to'the drawings wherein like reference numerals designate like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, 1 represents a vehicle to which my improved device has been applied. Pivotally supported Within the rear end of the vehicle is a supporting frame 2, the same comprising vertically disposed standards 3 and 4, which are provided with complemenlPatented diet... 11, M918.
Iii
tally arranged angularly extended arms 5 1 and 6, the lower end of said arms being provided with loops 7 and 8, which are adapted to receive one end of helical springs 9, while the extreme lower end thereof is provided with apertures whereby the same may be connected with cables, or cords, 10, the purpose of which shall be subsequently de scribed.
The upper extremities of the vertical standards 3 and 4 are provided with bracket HARRY E. MOORE'OF SMITHFIE-LD, NEBRASKA noms'rme-noox.
