ments in chutes and it is anobject of the im vention to provide a structure of this kind adapted to be employed in connection with v a window 0 ening and which comprises a plurality of relatively movable members which, when folded or compacted,,permits the device to be employed as a shutter or closure member for the window opening.
' Another object of-the invention is to pro vide, a device of this kind comprising a pin rality of relatively movable members which,
when extended, provide-a chute operating to facilitate the storage of coalor thelike within a cellar or kindred storage place.
The invention consistsin' the details of construction and in the combination and arrangementof the several parts of'my im proved chute whereby certain important advantages are attained and the device rendered simpler, less expensive and otherwise more convenient and advantageous for use, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth. The novel features of my invention will hereinafter bet definitely claimed.
In order that my invention may be the better understood, I will now proceed to describe the same with reference to theaccompanying drawings, wherein Figure 1 is a view in elevation illustrating a chute constructed in accordance with an embodiment of my invention and in a posi tion to serve as a shutter or closure member for a window opening;
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view of the I device as herein disclosed and extended or ad usted for use as a chute;
Figure 3 is a vertical sectional view taken through the structureas illustrated in. Figure 1 Figure 4 1s a View partly in section and partly in: top plan illustrating the :members of the device partlyfolded. or compacted;

structure W ina well known manner.
Disposed across the lower portion of the I frame F is arod 1 whiolris also directed or closing memberQ whereby said shutter through the lower portion of a solid shutter or member 2 is hingedly supported with respect to the frame F whereby thesame may tion.
WVhen in closed positionthe shutter or;
pbe readily moved into open or closed posi known manner with a conventional hasp 5 secured to the upper member of the frameF. I-Iingedly connected, as'at 6, with each side portion-ofthe shut-ter or closure member 2 is a straight marginal portion of a side wing 7. This side wing '7 is preferably in the form of a quadrant of a circle with the second-straight edge arranged adjacent to the hinged marginal portion'of the shutter or meri1ber2.
Hingedly connected, as at 8, to said second named straight edge marginal portion of the side wing 7 is a second wing 9 also preferably a quadrant of a circle and substantiall One of the wings 9 is hingedly connected,
as at 10, with an upstanding sideflan'gell disposed along side marginal portion of a chute plate 12' while the second w ing 9- along its inner straight edge marginal portion is provided with the hook members' 14 adapted to be detachably engaged with the opposite sidefmarginal portion of the'plate 12 when the wings 9 are extended intoworking position. These hook members 14 are preferably engaged through the openings .15 providedintheside marginal portionof a the chute plate 12remote from the hinges 10. is' a fragmentary view in perthe chute plate 12 are extended into working position a hook member 16 carried by the upper portion of each of the wings 7 is operatively engaged with an eye member 17 or the like carried by the upper portion of the frame F whereby the device is maintained in desired position for use as a chute to facilitate the delivery of coal or the like within a cellar or kindred place of storage.
In compacting or folding the device the hooks 14 carried by one of the wings 9 are first disengaged from the chute plate 12 whereupon said Wing 9 together with an associated wing 7 are swung inwardly and downwardly to overlie the closure member or shutter 2 and chute plate 12 as indicated by broken lines in Figure 4. The wing 9 is then swung on its hinges 8 to overlie the adjacent wing 7 as indicated in Figure 5. The wings 7 and 9 at the opposite sides of the member or shutter 2 and plate 12 are then swung inwardly to overlie the previously folded wing 7 and plate 12 whereupon the plate12 and theoverlying wing 9 are swung inwardly to overlie the member or shutter 2 resulting in a complete folding or compacting .of the device as particularly illustrated in Figures 2 and 6. The member or shutter 2 with the folded wings and plate are then swung upwardly into closed posi tion with respect to the frame F.
To assure the wings 7 and 9 together with the plate 12 being maintained in desired folded relation while the member or shutter 2 is in closed position, I find it of advantage to employ the elongated rod 18 freely connected, as at 19, to a side member of the frame F at the upper portion thereof, theopposite extremity of the rod being providedwith a hook member 20 to engage within an eye member 21 or the like carried by the second side member of the frame F. As before explained, the closure member or shutter 2 may be effectively held in closed position and against unauthorized opening through the instrumentality of the lock 3, staple 4: and hasp 5.
It. is also to be understood that before the device is folded or compacted it is required that each of the hook members 16 be disengaged from the eye member 17 or the like. I a
From the foregoing description it is thought to be obvious that a chute constructed in accordance with my invention is particularlywell adapted for use by reason of the convenience and facility with which it may be assembled and operated, and it will also be obvious that my invention is susceptible of some change and modification. without departing from the principles and spirit thereof and for this reason I do not wish to be understood as limiting myself to. the precise arrangement and formation of the several parts herein shown in carrying out my invention in practice except as hereinafter claimed.
I claim I 1. In combination with a window frame, a closure member for said frame, means for connecting an end portion of the closure member to the frame to permit said closure member to have swinging movement relative to the frame into open or closed position, wings pivotally connected to the side marginal portionsof the closure member and coacting means carried by said Wings and the frame for holding the wings extended when the closure member is in open position, an additional wing hingedlyconnected-with the inner portion of each of the first named wings, a. chute plate hingedly connected to the lower portion of one of the second named I wings, and means for detachably connecting the lower marginal portions of the other of said second named wings with the chute plate when the wings are extended.
3. In combination with a window frame, a closure member for said frame, means for connecting an end portion of the closure member to the frame to permit said closure member to have swinging movement relative to the frame into open or closed position, wings pivotally-connected to the side marginal portions of the closure member, coacting means carried by said wings and the frame for holding the wings extended when the closure member is in open position, an
additional wing hingedly connected with' the inner portion of each of the first named wings, a chute plate hingedly connected to the lower portion of one of the second named wings, and means for detachably connecting the lower marginal portions of the other of said second named wings with the chute plate when the wings are extended, said wings and chute plate folding one upon the other and upon the closure member when compacted.
4. In combination with a window frame, a closure member for said frame, means for connecting an end portion of the closure member to the frame to permit said closure member to have swinging movement rela- I tive to the frame into open or closed posi tion, wings pivotally connected to the side marginal portions of the closuremember,
coacting means carried by said wings and the frame for holding the wings extended When the closure member is in open position, an additional Wing hingedly connected With the inner portion of each of the first named -Wings, a chute plate hingedly connected to the loWer portion of one of the second named Wings, means for detachably connecting the lower marginal portions of the other of said second named Wings with 10 the chute plate when the Wings are extended,
said Wings and chute plate folding one upon the other and upon the closure member when compacted, and means for maintaining said parts vin compacted relation when, the closure member is in closed position.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature.
JAMES A. BROWN.
