Application filed December 2; i925. Serial meanepresent invention relates-to irnprovements in weather strips'and has for 1tsfprlllnt is i cipal object the provision of 'adevice '0 character :that is flexible throughout its enthe length whereby the samemay be caused to fit into the'corners formed by the l'ongi-.
tudinal .and transverse members of, doors .and window frames, and similar openings and at the same time provide an air-tight and water-tight joint between the frame and the movable 'member.-. With a device corner.
- apparatus, and "as the-i structure is made of this character the-person-installing the same ma usea continuous len th of my. improve weather strip foreac thereby avoiding the necessit of having to cutf and miterthe same to t it "into each This affords, a considerable saving in material and labor, and time consumed in each installation. Iprefer to fabricate the 20 weather strip entirely of rubber'thus ma. terially reducing the cost of production for the reason that the {same may be made in: any desired continuous length upon a ma chine in which the rubberis forcedthough suitably shaped molds in the nozzle of-the entirely of' one, material it re uires little orno handling after leaving t e machine exce ting the" usualivulcanizing step which retains the article in the desired shape.
' [In designing. myimproved weather strip.
1 have provided a'cylindrical or head memher that is connected to .the attaching body or fin by a reduced portion or neck so'as' to facilitate the compression or distortion of the cylindrical or bead member when in. use to cause the'strip to fit snugly he whole' 1 substantially the manner hereinafter fully described and as more particularly pointed out in the claims, reference being here made to the accompany gdrawings that form a part of this speclfication.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of an end portion of my improvgd weather strip.
Figure 2' is a transverse sectional view of a frame surrounding an opening and the embodimentthereof.
opening closure therefor, with my weather strip in transverse sectionthereon.
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view of my weather strip, illustratingia preferred -Figure 4 is a. similar view of a slightly modified construction thereof.
The drawings are inflasense merely schematic and. to illustrate a typicalor referred embodimentof my inventioman in these drawings similar reference characters have been employed to designate like parts wherever. the saine appear throughoutthe several views.' a
. 'By' referringiito-i'these drawings it will be iseeni'm invention preferably comprises a cylindrlcal. or-bead member 5 that forms the outer edge orenga 'ng and sealing portion of the weatheristriand the samemay be either-hollow or sold as illustrated andfor the pur ose' of both convenience and utility I pre er to make the bead member of roundfsection. The member by which the weather :strip is attached. to the door or window-frame or the like consists of a holding piece in the formof'a fin '6 that is preferablyof -.wedge or'V-shape with the sides converging away from the bead member-so that-thea-pex' thereof is farther away from the bead member and the base of the wed e is adjacent thereto. This fin, as will e noted from the drawings, is substantially radially dlsposed with respect to the bead member and either of; its sides is adapted to be placed flat against the frame 7 or other support to' which the structure is to be secured and the'edge of the bead member will be'in a'position' to be engaged-b the movable door or window 8 when t e latter is 'moyed against; the weather strip, which .actlon'causes a slight compression or distortionofthebead member. In order to readily accommodate this compression or distortion of the bead member, and thereby to insure a tight, snug fit in the corners of the structure in WhlGlI the weather strip mounted I preferto connect the bead memher 5 to the finfi by a reduced portion 9, in the "form of a short. narrow neck or .web which permits a greater flexibility of the portion of the Weatherstrip that extends eyond the attaching fin 6'. The base 10 of the finmay be straight, as shown in Figs.
1, 2, and 3 ofthe drawm or the same may be curved and concave as. illustrated in Fig. 4 of the drawings, and. the connecting or reduced portion may be either long or short as shown respectively in Figs. 3 and 4;
When the weather strip has been attached by inserting tacks through the fin portion and into the door or window-frame it will be seen the fin 6 lies flat against the supporting surface with itsfp'ointed edge or apex farthest away from the door orwindow or other closure member, and because of its tapered or wedge-shaped formation this edge offers no obstruction which might tend to tear the same away and at the same time gives the appearance of merging into the support The closing of the door or window will cause a compression or distortion of the cylindrical or bead member somewhat in the manner shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings, which will form a water-tight and airtight joint at the location desired.
The weather-strip I have herein disclosed is formed entirely from rubber or other flexible or elastic material so that it may be flexed or bent, or pulled in any direction and then down the other side to the sill where it is severed at the proper place, and thus all joints are avoided.
What I claim as new is: Y
1. An integral weather-strip structure of resilient material comprising a longitudinal bead and a holding-strip, said holding-strip having its major transverse axis radialto the bead. 2. An integral weather-strip'structure o resilient material comprising a longitudinal bead and a'holding-strip, saidholdin -strip having itsmajor transverse axis ra ial to the bead and connected to the bead by a res ducedintegral portion.
3. A weather-strip comprising a lon itudinal holding-piece, a longitudinal ead spaced from an ed e thereof, and a neck connecting said hol ing-piece and bead, all of said parts formed of flexible material and normally shaped in a longitudinal arc.
a. A weather-strip comprising a holdingpiece having an integral bead upon an edge that is connected thereto by a reduced portion, said structure formed entirely of rubber and normally curved in the direction of its length.
5. A weather-strip comprising a longitudinal holding piece of substantiall V-sha e section, a longitudinal bead space from t e edge of the holding piece oppositethe a ex thereof, and means connecting said hol ing piece and said bead. Y
6. -A weather-strip com rising a longitudinal bead, and a longitu inal holding piece integral therewith, said holding piece being formed substantially V-shape in section and disposed with the base of the same adjacent the bead and connected thereto by a reduced portion of the material.
7. A weather-strip comprising alongitudinal holding piece of substantially triangular section, a short neck extending from the base thereof, and a member on the outer edge of said neck and having sides that extend laterally from the neck, all of said parts formed from an integral piece of yieldable material.
"8. A weather-strip comprising a longitudinal holding-piece, and=an integral bead upon an edge thereof, said arts formed of flexible material and norm l ly shaped in an elongated are.
9. A weather strip'comprising a 101i itudinal holding-piece having an integral be upon the edge and-formed entirely of rubb'er, said strip being normally curved in the direction of its length.
10. A weather-strip comprising a longitudinal bead and a longitudinal holdin piece extending radially therefrom, sai holding piece being of tapered cross-section and formed integrally with said bead.
