ANTIRATTLING DEVICE.
Application led April 14, 1922. ySerial No. 552,687.
To u/Z ywhom t may concern Be it known that I JAMES L. MOCLIN- Tecn, a citizen of the zUnited States, residing at. Wichita, Kansas, have invented oer- .1 tuin new and useful Improvements in an Antirattling Device, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention comprises an anti-rattling device. It is a continuation of and improvement on the structure set forth in my copending application Serial No. 248,325. It is contemplated, in addition to the objects and advantages therein enumerated, to provide a device having a base or support made of a piece of material which may be used on either side, or, turned upside down as'occasion may demand, the associated parts bein interchangeable and reversible to accor with the location and position of the plate.
Another object is to reduce the number of workin parts and simplify their assemblage. 4 urther advantages will be apparent from the description which follows.
A drawing illustrating an embodiment of the invention accompames the specification, the following views being shown:
Fig. 1, is a fragmentary view in side elevation certain parts being removed and showing the osition of the device when in operative posltion;
Fig. 2, is a view in vertical section through a window to which the device has been attached;
Fig. 3, is a view in perspective of the device itself. l
In these drawings 1 designates a plate, base, or body portion which constitutes a support for the other working parts of the device when assembled. It is provided with openings 2 for the reception of means for securing it in place in any desired location, such means belng here shown as screws, 3.
Associated with this plate there is a spring pressed and resliently mounted roller 4. It
lis mounted so as to normally extend outwardly beyond the edge ci the plate as shown in Fig. 3, but when in use is forced back into the position shown in Fig. 1. This roller is carried on a bent portion 5 disposed on an offset portion 6 of a resilient arm 7. The oiset ortion of the' arm acts as a housing or con ning means for the roller and the arm 7, of which it is a continuation is normally in sliding engagement with a face of the pla-te when secured thereto. For this purpose the arm 7 is provided with a looped portion 8 adapted to bear upon and encircle one of the screws 3,- acting a's a bearing and means for holding 'the arm and roller in po- Sition on the plate.
Means are provided for pressing the roller outwardly with a. resilient tension, and for varying the degree of this force as occasion may require. As here shown, the looped portion 8 of the arm 7, is provlded with anl extension constituting another arm 9, in spaced relation to arm 7 and at an angle thereto. This arm has, at its free end, a bent or angulated portion 10 adapted to be disposed in any one of a series of holes 11 disposed in the plate 1 and adapted to increase the tension on arm 7, depending upon which one of the holes the bent portion 10 occupies. The arms being made of resilient materlal, the tension may be readily adjusted to accommodate a large variety of In Fig. 2, the device is shown applied to a window 12, by cutting out a portion of the frame so as to allow the roller to extend out beyond the plane of one surface. The plate 1 is attached to the window by screws 3, one of which passes through the looped portion 8 of the, arms. The tendency of the roller to extend outwardly under pressure of the arms is resisted by a portion 13 of the window frame which forms the slideway forthe window and this exerts a pressure agalnst the window itself which keeps it .tightly in engagement with another`- portion 14 of the slideway. This not only prevents rattling, but insures air and dust tight engagement between the parts, and dispenses with the use of window weights. The tension is sufficient to allow the window to be moved readily, but also to hold it in any desired position. The plate being absolutely flat and vlimit. myself to the precise form of this disclosure, as many changes in the general construction and arran ement of the parts, are contemplated as Wit in the scope of the invention as set forth in the claims.
