Application, filed May 3,
The invention relates to window or door structures and more particularly to an apparatus for providing in the windowor door structure a transom.
An important object of the inventlon Is to provide a structure of this character which may be directly attached to the door or window and which may be formed entirely from metal.
A further object of the invention 1s to provide 'a novel and improved transom frame structure and means for mounting the transom therein.
A further and more specific object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character, which is so constructedthat the transom element may' be readily re-i moved at any time to permit replacement of the pane or cleansingthereof.
A still further objectof the invention is to provide a transom structure. having means connecting it'to its; pivotsand mamtaining separable frame sections in 'assembled relation, whereby upon removal of the transom, the parts may be separated to facilitate cleansing or replacement thereof.
These and otherobjects I attain by the construction shown in the accompanylng drawings,wherein for: the purpose of 1llus-' tration is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention and wherein g Figure 1 is a fragmentary front elevatlon of a door having a transom structure applied thereto in accordance with my invention' Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view therethrough onlthe line 22 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a section on the'l1ne.33 of Figurel; I
Figure 4 is a section on the l ne 4+4 of Figure3;
, Figure 5 is a section on the hne 5 5 of Figure 4;
Figure 6 is a section on the hne 6-6 of Figure 5;
Figure of the pivots;
Figure- 8 is a detailsectionalvlew show ing a slightly modified form of outside frame plate; I
Figure 9 is a detail sectional view show ing the manner of applying the transom to a window, the glass ofwhich is completely framed.
Referring now more particularly to the drawings, the numeral 10 generally desig- 7 is a detail side elevation of on A 1927; Serial in, 158,541.
and 14- adapted to be arranged atopposite sides of the doorand have their end edges contactingthe upper ends of the side members 11. Between the side members, .the
The transom proper comprises a glass receiving frame for the transom. pane 2 1,
which is in the form of a pair of rectangusides of their centers, for a purpose presently to appear.
' Each flange 18 is formed at its center w1th= provided with reverted flanges 27 which are at an acute angle to the arms 26 and form a molding for the glass 24. The upper flange 27 of one of the members and the lower flange 27 of the other of the members 25 engagewith the flange 15 and terminal.
' The pivot 30 has a head'fittingbetween the arms 33 and surrounding the pivot between 5 this head and the base 34 of the member 32 I own general planewith relation to the pivot.
The ends of these arms'are accessible when the transom frame is horizontally arranged and may be sprung back to disengage the terminals 37 from the openings to permit the frame to be removed from its pivots.
Attentionisdirected tot-he factfthat when this frame is removed from its pivots, all that is necessary to resolve the same into its component parts is to pull the frame elements 25 apart.
- One of'the pivots 30 has secured to its outer end an arm 38 which is held against rotation with relation to the pivot and provided with a longitudinal slot 39. Pivoted uponthe corresponding flange 18 is a bell crank lever 40, one arm of which has a pin 41 extending into the slot 39 and the opposite end of which extends through a slot 42 formed in the plate 14. The outer end'of this farm 'is provided with an operating handle 43 and this end of the arm maybe held in adjusted positions by engaging the same in vertically spaced coves 4st formed 7 along one edge of the slot 42.
It will be obvious that by shifting the bell crank lever 40, the transom may be shifted and that by engaging the operating arm of'the bell crank in a selected cove, the transom may be held in adjusted positions.
A structure of this character may be very readily applied to a door or window frame and will provide for ventilation-without the necessity of opening the same." Awvindow maybe provided bot-h at its upper and lower 7 ends with such transom-structures and, if so provided, may bemade stationary Within its 'frame, eliminating the necessity for Weatherstripping and at the same time making provision for proper ventilation.
- Since the construction hereinbefore set forth is capable of a certain range of change i.
and modification without materially departing from the spirit of the invention, I do not limit myself to such specific structure except 2. In a transom or the like, an outer frame, an inner pane receiving frame formed preventing sep aration of the sections l in telescopically engaging separable sections 7 providing when in assembled relation a channel receiving the edge of the pane and pivots connecting the outer and inner frames at the side ends thereof having arms engaging oppositely facing. faces of the sections of the pane frame to prevent separation thereof and means associated with; the pivots locking the frame. ends against longitudinal movement with relation to the pivot. H
3'. In a transom or the like, an outer frame, an inner pane receiving frame formed in telescopically engaging separable sections providing whenin assembled rela tion a channel receiving the edge: of the pane, pivots connecting the outer and inner frames at the side ends thereof having arms engaging oppositely facing faces of the sections of the pane frame to prevent separa tion thereof and springarms carried by each pivot having at their ends angular. portions extending through aligned openings" formed in the ends of the sections of thepane frame to maintain said sections against longitudinal movement with,relation to the pivots.
