invention relates to improved yielding and flexible connecting means for two-part automobile doors having demountable upper sections such as are commonly used in connection with what are known as winter tops. i "Referring to which are made apart hereof and'ion which My said similar reference characters indicate similar parts,'
Figure 1 is a fragmentary from the vehicle body.
Figure 2 a section on line-Q-Q of 'Fig ure 1; and l .v
Figure 3 a section on line 8-3 ofI-igure 1. y I I In the drawings reference character 10 1ndicates the outer panel of the demountable upper door-section which section comprises also a wooden frame surrounding the sight opening of the door and support-ingoneor more panes of glass. At the closing side of the door a strip of sheet metal l2is at tached to the upright member 11 ofthe wooden frame in the manner illustrated in other suitable or convenient manner. In
the present instance it will be seen that the rivets extend through both sides of thebent strip 12 the bar 11 and the panel 10 thereby securing all of the parts firmly together.
At its inner forward corner the bar is cut away to provide a square socket to re ceive the square upright'end of a connecting rod 14;, the conformation of: the'socket thus formed being intended to be the same as a cross section ofthis part of the rod so that the rod will be 'held'securely in place.
body of said rod extends along the lower side of the lower bar 11 of the wooden frame adjacent the.
mountable door section. The connector rod is bent in such a manner that the body 14:
will diverge from the plane of the door when the upright arm is entered in the socket of the member 11.
A post 15 is slidably mounted on the body ofthe connector rod near its extremity the I post being flattened at its lower end and having a head with, an opening matchlng the shape of the rodr It is to beunderstood that the rod is preferably squarebut it may assume other rectangular forms or it may be elliptical or have any other irregular or nonrelation ofthe post to x away frointhe planeof the upper the accompanying drawings,

The the rod andthe door section is'such that-it liesin a plane diverging toward the interior of the vehicle body that the post section and also away from the vplane in 'which' the angularly related parts of the connectornormallylie -A stirrup '16 is proyided in connectlon with the bar 11 said stirrup embracing the bar and-being secured thereto by rivets 17 extending through the bar and both side members of'the stirrup conventional or preferred getherQ v confine the body of theconnector bar loosely with relation to the upper door section. A plate 18- extends across the joint between the bars 11 and 1-1 for bracing the corner of the door. I v v I In positioning the upper demountable door door section on the lower permanent door section may enter a socket time the demountablersection of the door to enter the socket o f fthe 'door reaches closing position. thus biasing the upper and closing sides or edges of the door toward thevehicle body thereby imparting side of the door to I am enabled to prevent rattling and rumbling noises due tolooseness in the conneca tions between the door and the vehicle body.
It will be obvious art that various changes may device 7 without departing from I do not'limit myself to the precise construction shown in the drawings and described in the specifica-' be made in my claims. I
Having fully described my said invention what I claim is: a
