Applicationled April 19,1913, Serial- No. 762,394. Renewed December 1, 1917. Serial No. 205,001.
17 'o all whom they concern Be it known that 1 vRonirr L. HoovEN, va' citizen of the United States, residing at 1421 Irving street, N. W., Vashington, D.I
C.,lhavc invented new and useful Improvements in Engine-Hood C'oveis, of Which-` .ithe following is aspecication.
' The 'object of thepresent; invention is to provide for regulating the exposure to the.
atmosphere of the radiatin" surface of a radiator for the internal com ustioirengines The present embodiment of the invention is that of a covercapable of being coiiveniently fitted to and reta-ined in vplace vupon a radiator, provision being made for entirely cutting' oli' 'the radiating surface from the atmosphere, forexposing a por tion only of the radiating s uifaceand also for exposing the entire radiating surface, whereby, an effective regulation may be ob-V 'tained .in a convenient and satisfactory manner.
The present radiator cover has been shown in the accompanyin drawings associated with an engine hoo cover, but it will, of course, be understood that the present invention is not necessarilydependent upon the engine hood cover.
Figure 1 is a. view in side elevation of this invention in position upon the engine hood of an automobile.
Fig. 2 is view in front elevation of" Fig.
Fig. 3 is a view in longitudinal vertical section through the cover with the rear4 broken away.
-Fig. 4 is an enlarged detail lview in section illustrating the manner of .attaching the front tothe maiiibody of the cover.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the accompanying drawings by the same referencecharacters.
The engine hood cover comprises a body portion 1. The ra'diator"covei is designated by the numeral 2.; These membersv are preff eiably composed of two thicknessesr of material. The outer material 3 beingoihclotli vor other suitable Water-proof material and the inner material 4 being of felt, fabric, or any other suitable heat non-conducting material. A series of studs 5 is mounted at'the forward edge of: the 4engine hood lcover 1v and are adapted to engage eyelets 6pro- .vided-,at the edge of' the 'radiator' cover. 2.`
These studs and eyelets may be of any pattern or design as now generally employed. f
A circular aperture 7 is provided at the for- Ward edge of the engine hood cover 1 and is adapted toreceive the .filler nipple 8 of the vvater radiator of thel engine. The radiator cover 2 is provided with a recess 9 'which also receives thesaid nip le.- The edge of the radiator cover 2 is a' apted to lie over the forward edge of the engine hood` the vicinityof tlielower edge thereof and y I are adapted to be passed through the usual' i hood handles and are secured at their ends by means of studs 12 fixed to the intermediate part of the engine hood cover 1.
The radiator cover 2 is provided with Aan opening 15 designed to expose a portion of the radiating surface of the radiator to the atmosphere. A flap 16 is secured along the upper edge of the opening 15 and is provided at its inner and outer sides With-Water-proof material. Between these layers of Waterproof material the said flap 16 may be provided. with a layer of heat non-conducting material. The flap 16. is provided at its tree edge with an eye 17. A stud 18.
is located upon the radiator cover 2 at the` lower edge of the opening 15 and is adapted to be engaged by the eye 17 of the flap 16.
A stud 19 is located uponthe radiator cover 2 in the vicinity of the upper edge thereof and is adapted to be engaged by the eye 17 when the flap v16 is swung to an open position.
From the above description it will be seen vthat means is provided for leavin exposed v a portion of the radiator or the sai radiator may be completely covered as desired.
Furthermore when the flap 16 is swung down and secured, the circulationof airthroughvthe opening 15 of the radiator cover is completely interrupted.
When it is desired that a 'regulated amount of air shouldcirculate through the radiator, the iiap 16 is raised and secured in its elevated position.- When it is desired that a freeucirculation of air pass through the radiator, the radiator cover 2 is `removed. Y
For these reasons it will be seen that a A simple and 'effective means for, regulating und adjecen one of the edges ni the .1 non wpennw, and ineens im' noinxng die do 'the expnsine o which n n A y and ai; con monehn; Une ein u degni?. und also enen.
