LEE A. YEAGER, OF AKRON, OHIO.
wrn'now scannn.
Application filed. March 4., 1920. Serial n5. stasis.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Lnn A. Ynnsnn, a citizen of the United States, residin at Akron, in the county of Summit and ta-te of Ohio, have invented new and useful'Improvements in Window Screens, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to window screens and one of the objects thereof is to provide a screen which will freely admit light and air and which will be strong and durable, serve to protect the window from breakage or unauthorized intrusion and prevent insects from entering therethrough.
Another object is to provide a window screen having an outer panel of strong wire netting of coarse heavy open meshed wire fabric and an inner panel of wire gauze or fine open woven wire fabric.
A still further object which may be considered in connection with the above objects, is to provide a screen in which the said panel of thin wire fabric may be removed during the season of the year when it is unnecessary to protect the opening against the entrance of insects, without disturbing the protective heavy wire panel.
Screens are ordinarily used to keep out flies, mosquitoes and other insects; protecting the window against breakage or for protection against intrusion.
It is well known that a screen which will prevent the entrance of insects must be of a fine wire fabric which is easily torn or broken. It is also well known that a screen which will effectually protect a window against breakage or which will tend to keep out intruders must be of strong heavy wire fabric of very large mesh.
It is apparent that to properly protect a window, both the heavy wire cloth and the fine wire cloth must be used. It is therefore a purpose of this invention to provide a compact, easily cleaned window screen having both a strong, coarse, open meshed wire fabric panel and a relatively fine wire gauze panel.
The above objects are attained and the above objections are overcome by the novel construction, arrangement and combination of parts hereinafter described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein I have shown an embodiment of the invention, it being understood that the invention is capable of various adaptations and that changes and variations may be resorted to which come within the spirit of the invention or the scope of the claims hereunto appended. Q
In the drawings in which similar nu merals of reference are employed to designate corresponding parts, throughout the several views,
Figure 1 is a cross sectional View of an adaptation of my invention taken approximately on line 1 of Figure 2, and showing the same operatively positioned in a window Irame.
Figure 2 is a planview ..of the' inner side of same taken approximately on line 2 of Figure 1, and having portions broken away to more clearly illustrate the invention.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, the numeral 3 is used to denote a window frame, and the numeral 4 a window sash. The numeral 5 denotes a screen frame which is adapted to fit into the window frame 3. The numeral 6 denotes a layer of heavy wire netting, strong, open meshed wire cloth or other reticulated material which is secured to the outer surface of the screen frame 5 so as to entirely cover the opening therein. The numeral 7 indicates a half round molding or batten which is secured over the wire cloth 6, with its inwardly extending edge approximately in line with the inner extending edge of the frame 5. The numeral 8 indicates ascreen frame adapted to exactly fit into the opening in the frame 5 so that the outer face thereof will be in contact with the layer of heavy wire fabric 6, and the inner face of the frame 8 will lie in the same plane as the inner face of the frame 5. Attached to the inner face of the frame 8 is a layer of wire gauze or relatively fine open meshed wire cloth which is positioned thereon so as to completely cover the opening therein. The half round molding, 10 is similar to the molding 7 and is attached to the frame 8 over the outwardly extending edges of the wire cloth 9. The inwardly extending edge of the molding 10 being in line with the inwardly extending edge of the frame 8. The numeral 11 is used to indicate a turn button which is used to secure the frame 8 in position on the frame 5. The numeral 12 denotes an eye screw which is driven into the inner face of the frame 5 and the numeral 13, a hook loosely secured insaid eye 12. The numeral 14: indicates an eye'screw fiXed to the frame 3 into which the hook 13 is adapted to be entered to secure the screen, frame 5 in the frame 3.
Inuse,lthe frame 5 is positioned inside the Window frame 3 at a point adjacent its outer edge andris secured thereto by the fastening means 12, 13 and let above described. The
During the, winter months, when no precaution need; be taken to prevent the entrance 'of insects, the frame 8 may be reother than the, buttons 11. p
It will thus be seen that I have provided astrong, compact, convenient device which [will accomplish all of the objects above set forth andwhich constitutes an important advancement in window-screen construction.
Having thus described my invention What I claim as new and desire Letters-Patent is z 1 In a device of the class described, in combination, a Window frame, a frame detachably secured therein, the outer side of said last mentioned frame covered with open meshed heavy wire screen and a relatively smaller frame detachably secured Within to secure by the second. named:- frame, the inner side of p the last named frame being covered with close meshed, fine Wire screen substantially asand; for the purpose herein-set forth.v
a window, the combinationof, a
frame adapted to fit therein, means to detachablysecure said frame in said Window, alayer of Wire screen secured to the outside of said frame and covering the, opening therein; a second framemountedii'n the first named frame so as to lie in the same vertical plane, means to. dtachalbly secure-7' said frame in position and a layer of wire screen secured the innerfaceiof the'hsecond frame I and covering; the opening; therein In testimony whereof I'have hereunto set my hand.
