IMPROVEMENT IN WEATHER-GUARDS FOR DOORS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 142,542, dated September 2, 1873; application filed July 21, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CLARK A. W001), of Kentland, in the county of Newton and State of Indiana, have invented certain Improvements in Weather-Strips, of which the following is a specification:
The nature of this invention consists in providing a weather-strip with a gutter for catching the water running down the door and conveying it through a spout or spouts beyond the door-sill, the gutter being provided with a perforated guard which prevents the wind from blowing the water out of it.
Figure 1 is a front elevation of my improved weather-strip. Fig. 2 isa rear elevation. Fig.
3 is a plan View. Figs. 4 and'5 are transversesections. Fig. 6 is an end view.
The same letters of reference are used in all the figures in the designation of identical parts.
The weather-strip is composed of a gutter, A, and a guard, B, which is a perforated partition extending the entire length of the gutter. The gutter is preferably made of some non-corrosive sheet metal, curved at the bottom in substantially the manner shown, so
that it will closely hug the door strip by slightly wedging upon it in closing the door, to the outer side of which this weather-strip is to be secured. The guard B may be made of wood and fastened to the rear side of the gutter bylnails or screws, and extend above the edge thereof, as shown, to form part of the for fastening it to the door.
back of the weather-strip and afford the means The guard is substantially of triangular form in cross-section, and spans the gutter with its base, which is some distance above the bottom of the gutter, so as to leave a space, a, underneath it.
Along the edge of the guard touching the front side of the gutter a series of holes, I), are formed through it, to let the water pass through itinto the-space ct underneath. The outer side of the gutter reaches above the contiguous edge of the guard, and the water I running down the concaved inclined exterior surface of the latter must consequently flow through the holes b into the curved space a, of the gutter, out of which it cannot escape except through the spout O, which, reaching beyond the door-sill, conducts the water to a point where it can do nodainage.
