OHAUNGEY F. LOVELAOE, OF IOWA CITY, IOWA.
IMPROVEMENT IN DOOR-CUSHIONS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 1 76,404, dated April 18, 1876; application filed February 17, 1876.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, OHAUNOEY F. LOVE- LACE, of Iowa City, in the county of Johnson and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Door-Cushions, of which the following is a specification:
Figure l is a perspective view, showing several methods in which the present invention can be applied to a door-jamb. Fig. 2 is a section of Fig. 1, with part of the jamb.broken away to show the internal arrangement of the several parts making up the door-cushion.
The object of the present invention is to provide suitable means for preventing the noise, jar, and other disagreeable and hurtful results arising from the slamming, accidental or otherwise, ot' a door; and, likewise, to prevent the rattling of a closed door; and to this end it consists more particularly in so adapting and applying an elastic cushion with suitable reent'orcing-spring to the jamb of the door-frame that, while the easy closing of the door will not thereby be in the least obstructed, there will be afforded a flexible oryielding surface to break all jar, concussion or noise, and likewise serve as a'means for holding the shut door tight and secure against the cushion so as to prevent rattling, all as will now be more in detail and specifically set out and explained.
In the accompanying drawings, A denotes the ordinary door-frame; B, the door. In the jamb a of the frame, at any convenient place or places, is provided a rabbet, a, of any suitable shape or size, according to the size, shape, or style of cushion to be used. I employ a re-enforcing-spring, any ordinary spring, 0, spiral, elliptical, or other suitable form, in connection with a rubber or elastic cushion, D. In Fig. 2 I have shown a rubber or elastic cushion so adapted or applied to, and in connection with two spiral springs.
The tongue (1 of the cushion, or the face of the metal spring, when merely that is used, projects through the aperture in the box or case E, in which the spring and cushion are held in place in the door-jamb. This case is usually made of metal, and of any convenient style and shape, and fastened in place in the jamb or door-frame by woodscrews or otherwise.
When the door is open the cushion will project a little out in the face of the jamb. The re-entbreing-springs are made of such temper or strength that they will yield readily to any ordinary pressure exerted in closing a door, and yet will, in case of slamming, receive the door in such a way as to wholly prevent noise orjar, and will also be quite strong enough to hold the closed door firmly and secure against the lock or latch so that it cannot shake or rattle.
The device is very cheaply made, and can be readily applied to any door-frame or jamb. It is very durable, and not in the least in the way or unsightly.
I am aware that metal springs alone, and rubber cushions in metal sockets, have heretofore been used for door-checks, and these 1 do not claim.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I consider new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The door-cushion D d, combined with box or case E, and re-enforcing-spring O, and adapted to be recessed in a door-jamb, sub stantially as and for the purposes set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
