TOY V EHIGLE.
Application led November 24, 1926. Serial No. 150,450.
This invention relates to toy vehicles and particularly to an improved Window `construction for toy cars,`
ln the preferred embodiment of my invention, the car body is formed of Sheet metal having Window openings therein, and frames for the Windows, `Whichare formed ofsheet metal, c ut and stamped into shape, are 'secured to theoutside of the body at each of the Window openings.
lWhen `constructed in accordance with 4my invent-ion, the window frame pieces may be made of thin sheet metal and the construction of these pieces and the manner in which they are secured to the oar body is such, that there is very little danger of their becoming loosened, or bent, or otherwise injured through use.
The frame pieces, Which are formed with Window. openings somewhat smaller than the openings in the car body, are secured outside of the car body over the car body openings and Vhide from view the `edges of the carbody openings. If the vframe pieces were placed behind the car body openings, very accurate positioning of the pieces would be required, because, if the frame pieces did not 'register exactiy with the car body openings, more of the frame would be visible `at one part of an vopening than at other parts, that is, the car window frame, visible v,through the opening in the car body would not appear to be or' thesame width throughout. In the present arrangement with the Window lframe pieces over the car body openings no very accurate positioning of the frame pieces is necessary because the full Width Aof the frame is always visible.
The 4means for securing the frame pieces to 'the car body 4openings comprises lugs which project from the edges of the openings in the Lcar body, which lugs cooperate with similar lugs on the frame piece. This fasten-ing means not only holds the `frame securely in position but is so positioned `that the -fastening means itself is hidden from view.
The Window `frame Will ordinarily be of a different color from the car body. The body may be painted, dipped or sprayed one color and the frame separat-ely colored, before -mountingon the carbody. In practice I may color the -car body and use fa frame of brass, uncolored, and `in this man--V ner :avoid :coloring the frame and at the same time provide a construction which has a very pleasing effect.
Other advantages and objects :of my iinvention will `appear from the 'followingfdescription taken in connection With the a'c,` companying drawing wherein:
.Figure l is a side elevation of a toy rails road car having Windows constructed in accordance with one form of my invention;
Figure Q is an enlarged detail-ed view of one of the Windows of the car shown in Figure 1;
Figure V3 is a section on the line 3f?) of Figure 2, and,
Figure 4 is a section on the line of Figure 2. i
Referring to Figure 1, the car body 10 vis supported on suitable trucks 11i, adapted to runen rails 12. The body 10 is formed fof sheet metal 'of sufficient thickness to give it .the required strength and is formed along the upper .part of its sides with spaced "Window openings 14. Lugs 15, 4formed Yintegral with the metal of the car body, project from yopposite sides of each opening 14 and as shown in Figure 3 these' llugs are lin! cli'ned inwardly from vthe place 'of the car side. The sheet metal ycar sides are formed, around each of the openings 1.4, with a seat or yrecessed portion shown at 18in Figures 3 and 4. Y Seated in .the recessed portion 18 andvadapted to be held therein bythelugs 1,5 are Window frame .pieces 20 whichl are formed of thin sheet metal and lcomprise outer portions 119 which lie Hush with the car sides and inner inclined or beveled portions 21 Which project into 'or 'through lthe openings 14 in the ycar sides.
In the form of my invention shown in the drawing the frame piece Ais formed with ay central strengthening member 22 Whichdivides the space inside the frame into t- Wo Window openings 24 and 25 as shown in Figure 3. The member E22 is formed of two oppositely inclined or beveled 'portions 21, which join :at their ends Vthe beyele'd portions 21 of the sides of the frame. The inclined portions 21 at Ithe sides of the frame rest against the foute'r -fa'ce's of the inwardly inclined .lugs 15 and are them# selves provided 4With flugs L26 that -are i around the ends of the lugs f 15fso a's tof-assist in holding the frame piece 120 in position. Upward and downward movement of the peceQO 4is `prewmted by' .the upperfand lower sides of the seatorvreces's 18, formed in .I claim `and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
