Description
Jan. 28, 1930. coB L 1,745,245 I Filed June 1. 1928 Patented Jan. 28, 1930 UNITED STATES JOHN H. COBEL, F LINCOLN, NEBRASKA WEATHER STRIP Application filed June 1,
This invention relates to metallic weather strips for vertical sliding windows, and the general object of the invention is to provide a weather strip that not only forms a substantially weather proof joint between the window sill and sash rail when the window is in closed position but also provides for proper drainage so as to prevent the accumulation of moisture and water between the parts.
Another object of the invention is to provide a weather strip of the character set forth, that is simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture and install and is efficient in operation and service.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to
be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:
Figure 1 is a fragmentary front elevation of a window and shows the weather strip which forms the subject matter of the present invention in applied position.
Figure 2 is a fragmentary perspective view of the strip per se.
Figure 3 is a vertical sectional view illustrating the application of my weather strip and showing the latter in section.
Referring to the drawings in detail, the letter A indicates the sill of the window frame, B the bottom rail of the window sash, and C the rail facing piece. The rail 13 is provided with a longitudinally disposed slot for a purpose which will be presently apparent.
The weather strip is formed from relatively thin metallic material and is bent longitudinally upon itself in a manner to provide superposed overlapping portions 1 and 2. The fold of these overlapping portions is bent upwardly to provide a bead 3 adapted to be disposed between the sill A and the facing piece C for the bottom rail as clearly shown in Figure 3 of the drawings.
1928. Serial No. 282,188.
The strip is secured to the upper surface of the sill through the medium of nails 4: or other like securing means and these nails pass through both the upper and lower portions of the strip which may be provided with openings to accommodate the same as will be apparent. The lower portion 1 rests upon the sill and is substantially fiat its entire width and length, while the upper portion is formed with a vertically disposed tongue 5 that is substantially U-shaped in cross section with the vertical walls thereof spaced from each other as shown. The inner wall of the tongue provided with a plurality of equi-distantly arranged slots 6 disposed at the junction of the wall with the body of the portion 2 and for the purpose of providing drain openings.
The portion 2 outwardly of the tongue is out away'to provide channel slots 7 which extend through the outer vertical wall of the tongues 5 and these channel slots are arranged in a line between the slots 6 as clearly shown in Figure 2 so that while water can drain freely through the respective slots, the passage of the water will be indirect and the arrangement also prevents minimum passage of air and weather elements as will be apparent.
The tongue 5 is t isposed to be received in the longitudinal groove of the bottom rail of the sash as suggested in Figure 3 and operates in the usual manner to provide a weather proof joint.
From the above description and disclosure of the drawings, it will be obvious that I have provided a weather strip which as shown is secured to an outwardly inclined sill for disposing the strip accordingly whereby rapid drainage will be provided which will result in minimum expansion and contraction of the parts as well as to prevent premature decay thereof.
It is thought from the foregoing descrip tion that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.
I desire it to be understood that I may make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claim.
What I claim is:
A weather strip of the character described comprising overlapping portions formed from a single strip of material folded longitudinally midway between its side edges, an upwardly extending bead formed with the folded edge, a tongue formed with the upper portion and being of substantially inverted U-shape in formation, the vertical walls of said tongue being disposed in spaced relation with respect to each other, the innermost wall being provided with a plurality of slots arranged adjacent the juncture thereof with the tongue bearing portion, and said portion outwardly of the tongue being slotted and 00- operating with the other portion to provide channel slots extending through the outermost wall and Cooperating with the slots first mentioned for the purpose s ecified.
In testimony whereof I a x my signature.
JOHN H. COBEL.
