T all to 7mm it concern.
Be it known that 1, DAVID A. JOHNSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hammond, in the county of Lake and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Awning-Support, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in awning supporting means, and it is the primary object of the invention to provide a support which will present smooth and regular surfaces for contact with the body of the awning, thus insuring against the awning being torn, or disfigured, when the same is being raised or rolled to a position out of use.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of this character having glass awning engaging portions, thereby eliminating any possibility of damage to the cloth forming the body of the awning, due to rust.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring to the drawings Figure 1 illustrates a perspective view disclosing the awning as applied to a building, the awning being supported by means of the awning support forming the subject matter of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is a front elevational view of one of the supports.
Fig. 3 is a plan view thereof.
Fig. 4: is a side elevational view of the same.
Referring to the drawings in detail, each of the supports includes a body portion indicated at 5 and which is provided with the laterally extending lugs 6, which are apertured as at 7 to receive the suitable securing means, that may be in the form of bolts or the like, whereby the support may be secured to a building.
Formed integral with the body portion 5 is a lower arm 8 which is cut away to provide a pair of spaced supporting arms 9, the inner surface of the lower arm 8 being curved as at 10, for purposes to be hereinafter more fully described.
The upper arm 11, which is also formed integral with the body portion 5 is relatively short as compared to the lower arm 8, the upper surface of the arm 11 being cut away at 12, to receive the flange 13 formed on the body portion 1 1, there being openings provided in the flange 13 and arm 11, to receive the securing screws 15, where by the body portion 1 1 may be secured to the arm 11.
Depending spaced arms 15 are formed on the body 14, which arms are provided with openings adapted to accommodate the shaft 16 supporting the glass roller 17, the cotter pin 18 being inserted through the opening 19 formed in one end of the shaft 16 for securing the shaft between the arms 15'.
Connecting the supporting arms 9 is a shaft 20, which supports the glass roller 21 in a manner to permit the roller 21 to revolve between the arms 9. Formed in the arm 8 and body portion 5, is a recessed portion 22 adapted to accommodate the curved guard 23 formed preferably of glass, the guard being however provided with depend ing flanges 24 on the opposite sides thereof, so that the guard 23 may be positioned on the body portion, the flanges 2 1 thereof contacting with the side edges of the body portion 5 and arm 11, in a manner to prevent lateral movement of the guard.
A shoulder 25 is formed on one end of the body portion 14, which shoulder contacts with one end of the curved guard 23 to secure the guard in position against dis placement.
In the use of the device, as illustrated by Fig. 1 of the drawings, a winding pole indicated at 26 is employed, which pole rests in the supports, and to this pole is secured one edge of the awning body indicated at 27, there being provided suitable supporting arms 28, for supporting the outer edge of the awning body 27.
Suitable gearing not shown, is operated by the rod 29, to cause the rod 26 to revolve within the support, with the result that the awning body 27 is moved over the rollers 21 and positions itself within the curved portion of the support.
From the foregoing it is obvious that due to the structure of the support, no portion of the metal forming the body of the support contacts with the awning body, whereby the rusting of the material would tend to rot or deteriorate the cloth forming the body of the awning.
Having thus described the invention, What is claimed is l. A support comprising a body portion having a curved surface, a lower arm extending from the body portion and terminating in a pair of spaced arms, a glass roller positioned between the arms, an upper arm formed integral With the body portion and supporting a glass roller, and a glass guard positioned on the curved surface of the body portion.
2. A support comprising a body portion having a curved surface, rollers supported at the end of the curved surface, a curved guard of glass having right angled flanges formed thereon, said curved guard adapted to be' positioned over the curved surface of the body portion, and means for permitting the support to be secured to a supporting element. r
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto affixed my signature in the presenceoof two Witnesses.
