2 SheetsSheet 2 K II INVENTOR George Alfred Jackson s gwj ATTORNEY clockwork with whiiili such-levers may be as yielding means for maintaining the arm in its normal elevated position. v
A suitable legend 47 is carried by the door 21 adjacent the pull hook 32, giving instructions for the operation of said hook, and suitable enclosing structure is provided for said hook, its containing recess 26 and the portion of the outer surface of the door 21 which carries said legend 47. Said structure comprises the frame 42, which is hinged at 43, to the door 21, is normally retained in closed position by engagement of the latch spring Mcarried by said door with a latch strike plate carried -by said frame, and carries the handle 46 by means of which it may be conveniently opened'and closed.
The transparent panel 48 is mounted in the frame 42, said panel being secured in adapted to engage sa d plate in a grooves 49 in the bottom and side walls of the opening enclosed by said frame (see Figs. 8 and 4:). Said panel is so positioned and of such form as to enable the hook 32 and the le end 4:? to be readily viewed therethrough.
In accordance with one of the more specific aspects of this invention, the material of the panel 48 should be such as to render it nonrangible in the ordinary sense, to the end that it cannot be so shattered as to be likely to cause fragments thereof to find lodginent where they might injure the hand of anyone having occasion to actuate hook 32. For this purpose, it has been found desirable to em loy a transparent variety of a material w ich, in many respects, is like what is known as pyralin or celluloid.
In accordance with a broader aspect of this invention, it will be evident that other features thereof may be advantageously employed in connection with a more readily frangible material, such as glass, because it is reasonable to assume that even a glass panel would not ordinarily be broken when a signal was transmitted from a box equipped with an attachment constructed in accordance with this invention, except as to the nontrangibility of the transparent panel.
The latch spring at is secured to the outside of the upper wall of the rearwardly extending portion 25 of the door 21, and the free end of said spring extends the recess 29 and through the slot 36 in the lower wall of the forwardly extending por-= ,tion 28, and is so formed. as to be disposed in the path oi? the late 45 so as to be manner pressure applied to said arm;
which Will yieldingly retain said name closed position,
The plate 45 is detacliably secured to the upper portion of the rear side of the frame 42, as by the screws 50, 50, in such position said frame, with reference to said ribs and to the forwardly extending portion 28 oil said door, is such as to minimize opportunity for rain to be so driven behind said frame as to reach the hook 32, the arm 30 or the inner surface of the door 21.
' i The legends'52 and 53 carried by the front surfaces of the portion 28 of the doorjll and the handle 46, respectively, give instructions for obtaining access to the book 32,
The plunger 54 is slidably mounted in an vopening through the door 21, so positioned that the front end of said plunger may engage the inner surface of the lower ortion of the frame 4L2 for the purpose of imparting an opening tendency thereto. The spring 55 is secured to the door 21, and the free endth'ereot is so applied to the inner end of said plunger as to urge same toward said frame,
The lugs 56, 56, the abutments 57, 5'7, 57, 57 and the spring58 are carried by the rear surface of the door 21, in the lower portion thereof, for the purpose of supporting a reserve supply of panels, such as the panel 48.
L lln applying this invention to existing signal boxes, it is merely needful to remove the oresent door and apply in place thereof a suitable door comprising a signal box attachment constructed in accordance with this invention. lit is believed that the foregoing description will make obvious to those skilled in this art the manner oi embodying this invention in signalboxes in course of manufacture.
The operation of the attachment shown by thedrawings and hereinbefore described in detail is as follows:
When it is desired to cause the transmission of a signal,the hinged section of the frame 42 should be swung upon its hinges 43 from its normal closed position, by means of the handle d6, so as toe give access to the pull hook 32; and said hook should there upon be depressed in the usual manner. Said hinged section may then be returned to its closed position, thus restoring its normally effective relationship to the recess 26,
to swing said hinged section liar enoug out its menace of a vertical plane so that gravity will cause said section to swing to the position indicated by dotted lines in Fig, 1; thus directing attention to the fact that the structure has not been properly restored. Without.
this feature, the hinged section might be. left in such partly closed position as to admit rain, snow and sleet behind said section in sufficientvolume to interfere with the operability of the attachment.
Should it be needful to replace the panel 4:8, the screws 50, 50 should be withdrawn and the plate 45 should be removed from the frame 42. The previously used panel 48, or any remaining parts thereof, may then be taken out of the grooves 49, and a new' panel may be inserted in such grooves. After inserting a new panel, as just described, the plate45 should be again secured in position by means of the screws 50, 50; and the frame may then be restored to its closed position.
Obviously, other structures may be devised which will embody certain or all of the features of this invention. The foregoing detailed. description and the accompanying drawings should therefore be considered as illustrative rather than in a limiting sense;'and what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is: v
