IMPROVEMENT IN WEATHER-STRIPS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 155,617, dated October 6, 1874; application led May 25, 1874.
To all Iwhom 'it may concern Be it known that I, A. N. Lorna, of the city of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, have invented a lnew and useful Improvementv in Weather- Strips for Doors in Dwellings, of which the following is a true and full descriptiomreterence being had to the drawings and letters of reference marked thereon.
The object otl the invention is to constructa weather-strip in such amanner that when the door is closed all strain will be removed from the bottom of the'doorr The invention consists of devices constructed u and combined in the manner hereinafter specified.
Figure 1 is a'front view of the lower part of a door and jambs, showing the application of my weather-strip thereto. Fig. 2 is a section through the door and strip 'on the line l 2 in Fig. l, showing the weather-strip up. Fig. 3

door, and O the wooden portion of the weatherstrip connected by the rubber hinge K to the said molding. The bottom of the wooden strip G is provided with a Vfrubber strip, D; E is the sill, and F the doorjarnb. H represents a spring-catch held to the molding B in some appropriate way, and extending a short distance below it, its lower end having a semicircular curve, as shown. Within the strip O is a semicircularv recess, into which the curved.v
end of the spring-catch tits when the weather-strip is down. lf desired, lnore than one spring-catch and its attending devices may be used. G represents a pin or stud used With the irregularly-curved cavity L M in the jamb F, to stop and press down the strip when the door is closed. The inclined part M` of the said cavity or recess serves to raise the pin Gr when the door is to be opened. The semicircular recess in the strip O,when used with the spring-catch, serves to stiften and hold the weather-strip inplace, and, as seen in Fig. 3, this arrangement of devices enables the strip to fit up closely against the door. The stud and its inclined cavity L M serve to give the weather-strip greater etlciency, and to facilitate the openin g ofthe door by relieving the pressure from it.
I claim as my invention- The molding B, having the spring-catch H, and recessed strip O, provided with the pin G, the said molding and strip being connected by the rubber hinge K, in combination with the irregularly-shaped cavity L M in the jamb F, substantially as specified.
