Referring particularly to the rod `end side L of the panel, shown in Figures 1 and 6, it
will ybe noted that therehas been secured to the Wood frame 16-17 an additional vertical sheet metal section 106 by'm-eans of vnails 107, said vsection 106 extending outwardly of the 'framegineniber and being turned' to -forni a channel 108 adapted to receive the upper cylindrical sect-ion of a substantially `vertical supporting rod v165 havi'ii Figure 1.
I panel 158 from the door 2,-tlie latter can be opened enoughto allow easy access to the i 'Y screw 152v and that `upon thereinoval of the latter, the brace 111-2 can be lifted off from the pin 151 and thus freed from the door rllhus the panel 158 can be swung in horizontal planes upon the rod 1.65'so: as to free the hinge side ofthe panel -frointlie rigid top rail 8 and when the door is opened l enough to swing the handle edge of the door out beyond. theedge of saidtop rail, then the whole panel is freed and can be lifted from the door with the offset rod 165.-` Wish particularly toV direct attention to the pivotal connection ofr tliebrace 142 with the panel body. Thispivotal connection provides a joint at the top andebot'toii'i of the panel. with thecanopy and-door 2, respectively, which is we atlierprooi` and yet flexible enough to force the panel to make said joints with a tension which is just adequate for the purpose desired, allowing also for veasy and satisfactory opening and closing V.ofthe door 2 with the panel 158 mounted thereon.
Referring particularly to Figures 7,8 and v9, I have therein disclosed a bushing. 45
' adapted to be secured to the inner iace of the door 2 and formed with a vertical rectangular rodercceivingslot Llwhichis adapted vto-receive the flatrectangular end 480i a rod`47, the latter beingv securely/held the bushing byl means of alpin 49 adapted to j intersect the hole for-med `in the bushing .45 and` to be seatedfin the rod section48.

Referring particularly to lgure's '10', A151 and '12, I show,` therein a substituteconstruction for the brace construction. 1452. This `inner face of the door 2.
.substitute construction consists of a two-part brace section adapted to be secured to the The lower section 132 ofthe brace is secured by means l of screws 133 to the door 2 and is formed with an' upper eXteriorly-threaded portion 135 adapted to'cooperate with an interiorlythreaded bushing 136. A second brace section 1314 is formed with anenlarged ylovver head 138 ot' a diameter too largeto pass through a hole 189 formed in the Lipper part of the bushing 136. Itis evident that the bushing 186 can be dropped over lthebrace Y i' section 137 until thehead138 ol the' latter is caught in the hole .139 of the bushing v136 and then the latter turned upon thefthreaded portion 1350i the brace section 132 until the desired tension is obtained.
