IMPROVEMENT IN SKYLIGHTS.
Sf;ecfication forming Part of Letters Patent No. 171,856, dated J anuary 4,1876; application filcd October :28, 1875.
Improvement in Skvlights, 0f rvhich the following is a specificacion:
Our ixnprovement is designed as an improvement npon tl1e Letters Patent 166,890, granted to us August 17, 1875, and is intended t0 en able us to manufacture the bar in such a manner as to materially cheapen its construction withont materially lessening its value in use.
Onr invention consists, tirst, in snob a formation of the bar With its double gntters and cap as a whole as that the lower gntter is of the same form snbstantially as the cap, both being donbled back in a novel way over the inclosed wcbs of the bar proper, and one serving to connect, by rivcting, the sheets of the bar-ai: the bottom together, while the other stifiens the sheets of the bar et the top.
Our invention fnrther consists, in connection with the bar" l1aving separaced sheets at the bottom, of a lower gntter, which, by its pecnliar formation and the addition of rivets, forms, by the use of a single sheet et metal,
water-wayson both sides of the bar, and firmly connects the sheets of the bar together at this point.
Figdre 1 is asectional view et ont improved bar. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the same.
A is the snpporting bar, bent together or.
doublent the top to form the crown-web a, and then bent away under the glass at an acnte angle t0 web a, to form a gntter, and also a snpporting-\veb, a for the plate of glass B. The metal isthen bronght together at the bottom to form adouble thickness, chus leaving out in this sheet the secondary gntter for draining themoistnre from the nnder sideof the glass, mentioned in our former patent. The bar thus far completed has a closed crown-web, a, ofdouble thickness, and an intervening gntter and snpporting-web, a, for carrying off influx of water, soot, &c., and snpporting the glass B. The only difference between the crownplicated, after bending over and back, at d Tliis cap, when applied to the base of the bar,
is so secnred that the double elongation con,
nected.at d embraces the two parts of the base-web a while the concave portions extend ontward and npward to form gnttcrs for dtai1iing tl1e moistnre from tire nnder side. of the glass, in place of those mentioned informer patent. As seen in the drawing, the cap D, thns constrncted, is secnred to the web a by means of rivets, and serves t0 greatly stiffen tire bar, while being of cheap constrnctien. The cap Eis a cap similar in formation to cap D, and issecnred t0 crown-web a as said cap Dis secnred t0 base-wcb The lips e l'est npon the gl-ss, and ..are preferably inclined from a perpemlicnlar; but they may be similar to the lips d on cap D. T0 keep out soot, cinders, &c., 1 provide a line of pntty, F, nnder cap E.
We clain1 1. A bar for sk'ylights, having on its upper side a donbled cap, E, riveted to the web a, and a lower gutter of the same form, donbled to connect by rivets with the separate sheets of the bar at the lower side, snbstantially as set fortin.
2. In combinaiion with the bar A, the donbled single sheet D, forming both sides et the lower gnttcr, and serving, by riveting, to connect tl1e separate sheets of the bar togexher, snbstantially as set fortin.
In testimony of which invention we hareunto set onr bauds.
