Description

UNITED STATES PATENT 'OEErnE JACOB DAVID, 0E BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.`
IMPRQVEMENT IN BLIND-AwNlNGs.
Speciii cation forming part of Letters Patent N o. 168,236, dated September 28, 1875; application Bled I August 28, 1875.
being had to the accompanying drawing, inl
whichy Figure 1 represents a transverse vertical section of my awning when closed to serve as a blind. Fig. 2 is `a similar section of the same when the slats are opened for ventilation. Fig.
3 is a similar -section of the saine when the slats are drawn up. Fig. 4 is a similar section when the awning is raised to an inclined position, the slats being down. Fig. 5 is a similar section when the front -nnd side slats are open for ventilation. Fig. 6 is an inside-view of my blind-awnin g when closed.
Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.
This invention consists in the combination of swinging side pieces, double-jointed braces, `Ventilating front slats, and folding side slats in such a manner that when the awning is down its front slats can be opened like blindslats, and when the awning is thrown out and supported by thel double hinged braces, its front and side slats can be closed, or either or both can be opened for ventilation. Y
In the drawing, the letter A designates the outer portion of a window-casing. To the sides of this casing are secured the swinging side piecesB, which turn on pivots a, so that they can be allowed to drop down to the position shown in Figs. l, 2, and 3, or that they can be thrown out to the position shown in Figs. 4 and 5. In this last-named position the side pieces are sustained by double-jointed braces b, and said side pieces are retained in the required relation toward each other by cross-braces c, Fig. 6, which may be firmly secured to said side pieces, or which may be attached by hinges and hooks,or other suitable fastenings, so that they can'be unhooked and i turned down, each close to the side piece to which it is hinged. At or near the outer edges of the side pieces are secured guide-rods d for the front slats O, each slat being provided with two rings, e, which slide in the guide-rods, with the exception of those of the top slat, the rings of which engage with staples red in the outer edges of the side pieces, near their upper ends. In the lower or outer edges of the slats are secured staples g and flexible stops h,
which are fastened in these staples, and retain -the slats in the proper relation toward each edge of each slat are secured two staples, n,
and these staples are connected by flexible stops o, which, together with the stops h, retain the slats inthe required relation toward each other. From the staples n in the lowest slat extend cords p p, through all the staples of the succeeding slats, and through eyebolts q g', secured in the top of the casing A, and
another cord or chain, fr, extends through the eyebolt q to the staple g in the bottom edge of the lowest slat. and r are fastened to a common ring, s, Fig. 3, and the length of these cords is so adjusted that by pulling the ring s the several slats are successively brought in a horizontal position, and then raised up close under the top bar of the casing, as shown in Fig. 3.
With each of the swinging side pieces B are combined a series of side slats, D, which are suspended from the pivots a of said side pieces, and which, when the awning is thrown out to the position shown in Fig. 4, are retained `in the proper relation toward each other by flexible stops t. These side slats are so arranged that they can be folded up close to their respective side pieces, and a pin, u
which passes through a hole in the side piece, and through corresponding holes in the side slats, retains'said slats in their folded position.
By pulling the cord i the front slats can be raised to their Ventilating position.
It will be noticed that the side slats are so arranged that they shed water to the outside,
and they fold between their respective side piece and the outer slat on each side.
By this arrangement an awning is obtained The cords or chains p p which can be operated like a blind, and which, ventilating front slats, and folding side slats,
When thrown out to its position as an awning, substantially as shown and described.
can be opened or closed in front, and on ei- In testimony that I claim the foregoing I ther or both sides, as may be desirable. have hereunto setmy hand and seal this 24th It is obvious that the several parts of my day of August, i875.
