STORE FRONT CONSTRUCTION Filed Jan. 2, 1930 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Patented Dec. 9, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE f FRED HIHHEL AND ISIDOBE HIMMEL, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNORS TO THE HIMMEL BROTHERS COMPANY, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT, A CORPORA- TION STORE-FRONT CONSTRUCTION Application filed January 2, 1930; Serial No. 417,885.
This invention relates to improvement in store-front construction, that is, strips of metal between which a sheet of glass is clamped for connecting the inner and enter 5 stri s, the object being to provide means rea ily accessible and efiective in operation,
and the invention consists in the construction as hereinafter described and particularly recited in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
Fig. 1 is a plan view of a store-front construction illustrating our invention;
Fig. 2 is a front view of the same;
Fig. 3 is an end view thereof;
Fig. 4 is a sectional view on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 5 is a sectional view on the line 5-5 of Fig. 3;
Fig. 6 is a sectional view on the line 66 of Fig. 3;
Fig. 8 is a perspective view of the nut detache'd';
Fig. 9 is a perspective view of the anchoring-plate detached;
Fig. 10 is a perspective View of the inner strip, showing the rib with which the an- 7 choring-plate engages;
Fig. 11 is an end View illustrating a slight modification in the form of the inner strip;
Fig. 12 is a perspective view illustrating the modified form of inner strip detached;
Fig. 13 is an end view illustrating a further modification in means for holding the anchoring-plate; and
Fig. 14 is a perspective View of the inner strip, showing this means of holding the anchoring-plate.
In carrying out our invention, we employ an outer strip 15 and an inner strip 16, the design of which may vary to a considerable extent it being desirable, however, that the edge 17 of the outer strip "passes under the adjacent edge 18 of the inner strip, which edge is offset corresponding to the thickness of the metal from which the strips are formed, and the outer strip is formed at its opposite edge with ani'inturned bend 19 forming a pocket 20.
Arranged at intervals on the base of the inner strip are anchoring-plates 21 formed with upwardly-projecting knuckles 22 between which a clamping-member 23 is pivoted, this clamping member having an .up-
pivot. To prevent the nut from turning, the
To locate the anchoring-plate, the inner member may be formed with an inwardlyextending rib 33 in the base of the inner member and with a corres onding rib 34 in the wall of the inner mem er, beneath which rib the edge of the anchoring-plate extends.
The two strips are arranged in the usual manner on opposite sides of a sheet 35 of glass and when the screw 27 is turned in one direction, the nut 30 will move downward and rock the clamping-member, forcing the arm 24 toward the glass and hence drawing the inner and outer strips together so as to clamp the sheet of glass between them.
If desired, instead of forming the narrow rib 34 above referred to, a wide rib 36 may be formed in the wall of the inner member, as shown in Figs. 11 and 12 of the drawings, and instead of forming the rib 33, the ofiset in the base of the inner member will be sufiicient to hold the anchoring-platein position or, if desired, and as shown in Fi s. 13 and 14 of the drawings, the base of t e inner member may be formed with fingers strips together are of hinge type, the movement of which is conveniently accomplished by the adjustment of the screws 27 We claim:
1. A store-front construction, comprising inner and outer members, the outer member formed with a pocket, an anchoring-plate seated in the inner member and formed with knuckles, a clamping-member pivotally connected with said knuckles, said clampingmember formed with an arm extending into engagement with a ocket in the outer member and with a yo e at substantially right angles thereto, a screw swiveled in the said anchoring-plate and projecting beyond the wall of the inner member, and a nut on said screw with which the said yoke is engaged.
2. A store-front construction, comprising inner and outer members, the outer member formed with a pocket, an anchoring-plate seated in the inner member and formed with knuckles, a clamping-member pivotally connected with said knuckles, said clampingvmember formed with an arm extending into engagement with a pocket in the outer member and with a yoke at substantially right angles thereto, a screw swiveled in the said anchoring-plate and projecting beyond the wall of the inner member, and a nut on said screw, the said nut provided with flanges between which the yoke extends.
3. A store-front construction, comprising inner and outer members, the outer member formed with a pocket, the base of the outer member extending beneath the base of the inner member, an anchoring-plate resting on the base of the inner member and formed with knuckles, means for interlocking said plate with said member, clamping-means pivotally connected with said knuckles and formed with an arm extending into said pocket and with a yoke at right angles to said arm, a screw swiveled in said anchoring-plate and extending outward therefrom, and a nut on said screw with which said yoke engages.
In testimony whereof, we have signed this specification.
