COMBINED FINISI-IING WELT .AND METAL CONTAINER.
Application .led November 12, 1925. Serial No. 68,727.
My present invention relates to a combined finishing weltot' relatively pliable inaterial, and a channelled metallic-container for the same, provided also with an underlying integral groove or gutter, arranged and adapted to impart a finished appearance to the tops of automobile or other yeliicles, and to conduct-water, in case of rain, from such tops, thereby preventing di'ip at doorways or windows.
The invention will be hereinafter particularly described and then pointed out by the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings which form part of this application for Letters Patent andwhereon li"e numerals indicate corresponding parts vin the several views z' Figure 1 is a perspective view showing one front corner of a closed automobile top, having the combined finishing-welt and dripstrip applied thereto;
' Figure 2 isa relatively enlarged perspective View partly in section showing the oo mbined and improved finishing-welt andtdripstrip detached from a vehicle top; v
Figure 3 is a vertical transverse sectional View through welt and drip-strip in assembled relation; t
Figure 4 is also a transverse sectional View corresponding with Figure 3, but omitting Figure 5 is also a transverse sectional view, showing one modified form of lwelt Within the embrace-of its metallic contain-er. l 'Reference being hadA to the drawings and numerals thereon, 5 indicates Vthe top of a closed vehicle such as an automobile sedan, coach-of coup, and the numeral 6 designates aisheet metal Welt-container and continuous drip-strip or gutter formed and adapted to extend across the front and along both sides of the vehicle top to the rear thereof, at which points it is open ended.
The channelled metallic container 6 is l preferably made. of relatively stiff sheet metal pressed or rolled to the desired shape,
or it may be either cast 0r eXuded in steel dies, but in any event is so shaped as to it vthe body structure for which it is intended, andwhen desired may be provided with the underlying drip gutter 7 forcatching rain or snow water and con-ducting it to the rear of and from the car roof;
The under surface'or base portion of this lmetallic' container 6, is adapted to Contact directly with the surfaces to which itis ordinarily applied, and is cambered in cross section or slightly curved as at 8, to provide for neatiiess of joints at its upper and lower edges when applied, and from theseedges the metal is rolledor curved inwardly in liberal folds over the body'or said base 8,v
thushproducin'g oppositely disposed Welt-embracing anges .9 and 10, and the resulting l underlying deep pockets 11 and 12 of suitable depth each, for receiving the opposite sides of a finishing Welt. The gutter 7 aforesaid is formed as a downward extension of the iiange 10, best shown by Figures 2 and 3.
The particular finishing Welt which 1 employ in cooperation with the channelled metallic container aforesaid, is that known to the trade as Hidem welt, and this welt per se, is covered by United States Letters Patent No. 1,226,600, issued to me under date of' May 15, 1917. It comprises, generally stated, a body or base 13, of resilient material surmounted by ,a pair of centrally positioned contacting parallel independent beads 14 and 14. As shown the welt body or base 13, is made of layers of leather, leather substitutes, or other suitable ieaible materials, securely stitched or otherwise fastened together as at 15,15, adjacent the outeredges of both beads 14 and 14, thus providinga central longitudinal slot or cleavage between the independent but contacting beads 14 and 14, which cleavage greatly facilitates folding the welt longitudinally upon itself when desired, for the purpose of introducing it into the channelled container aforesaid.
.Extending laterally from both beads 14 andv14 in opposite directions or outwardly, are side base anges 16 and 16, constituting relatively flattened edges and being a continuation of the welt body or base 13. The
lows: The channelled metallic container either with the drip member 7 as shown by.
Figure 3, or without it as shown by Figure 4,
means such as tacks, finishing nails orfscrews. ot shown), driven through nail holes such' as 17. The welt isthen doubledl or'folded longitudinallyand centrally upon itself, and
in this folded or doubled condition is readily f introduced between the, opposing edges l.of
the container ianges 9 y'an 10. Because of the slot or cleavage in thel longitudinal center ofthe welt roper, thatis to :say the space between its eads 14 and -14,`-`extend ing to its base, and because of the flexible nature of the structure, this welt is readily folded upon'l itself centrally so as to aford ample clearance between the edges of flanges-9 and 10 as. aforesaid. When so placed the lateral flanges 16 and 16 of the welt at their edges rest upon the bottom of container 6 in a downwardly diverging condition, surmount-` ed by the upstanding' beads 14 and 14. Pressure then applied by means of a thumb or finger of the trimmer, upon said upstanding' beads 14; Y14, depresses the latter, and simultaneously forces both lwelt flanges 16 and 16 oppositely and outwardly, by a powerful toggle action` into the extreme depths of pockets 11 and 12 as shown by Figure 3 of the drawings, therebyniost effectually'and neatly seating the welt from 4end to end in its metallic container or channel, and cooperativelyl associating the said welt and container elements. Q
' In introducing welts of the general character indicated into channelled metallic containers such asaforesaid, it is necessary that the weltbe entered sidewise, and heretofore this has beendone, to some extent, with comparatively `narrow welt strips or fillers 'of elastic material, which yielded sufficiently to permit their introduction as aforesaid.' In yapphcants invention and cooperative arrangement however, employing a relat1vely wide welt, there is no rubber iiller contrlbuting by its` inherent elasticity, to the assemblage vof parts, but on the other hand thev necessary 'pliability of the welt member is insuredby'its continuous central longitudinal slot between beads 14, 14, without which it could not be introduced into the channelledl container at all, but with which the welt is not only,in'troduced with "ease, accuracy and precision, but in a manner to insure 4permanency, reliability and efficiency.
In Figures 4'and5 two of many possible modifications ofthis invention are shown by way of eXemplific-ation.
Figure 4 corresponds with the form of container hereinbefore described with `omis- -sion only of the gutter or drip element 7, the
corresponding parts bearing like reference numerals except that the same in Figure 4 are each primed.
' Figure 5 includes a modified form of welt in a channelled Ametallic container correspondi'ng with that of Figure 4, and here is to lbe seen a weltbody or base 13', side flanges rmV 16', 16.'surmounting beads 14', 14' the latter being somewhat spaced 'apart as shown, and a removable half-round filler 18 of resilient material introduced between the beads 14', 14', which in turn are securely clamped intocooperative relation by agency of the 'overlying side'ianges 9' and-10 rising from the channelled metallic container or channel member, and terminating each adjacent to their respective beads 1-4, 14', as and for the purposes set forth.` 1'
Having thus described my present invention, yits cooperative arrangement and combination Iof parts, what I now claim and desire to secure by Letters-Patent is:
1. In a device of the character described4 the combinationV of a channelled metallic containerf having inwardly extending side flanges, and a finishing welt having laterally extending base lianges and -slotted longitudinally upon its outer surface to facilitate folding upon itself and its introduction into said container,
2. In a device of the character described the combination of a channelled metallic` container having inwardlyv extending side flanges, anda finishing welt surmounted by a. pair of arallel independent beads and slotted' longltudinally upon its outer surface to'faeilitate folding and its introduction into said container.
3. In a device of the character described lthe combination of a channelled metallic container having inwardly extending side flanges. and a finishing welt slotted longitudinally upon its outer surface to facilitate folding and' including laterally extendin base ianges and a centrally disposed bea upon each' side of the slot aforesaidt 4. In a device of the character described the combination of a metallic container having/inwardl extendingside flanges, and a flexible finis ing welt slotted longitudinally//upon its outersurfa'ce to facilitate foldingsurmounted by a pair of contacting parallel surface beads, and outwardly extending base flanges clamped into operative relation beneath ytheir respective container sidel anges.
In testimony whereofI affix my signa-ture.
