,Patented Mayj 12, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE' f ROBERT J". STEPHENSON, F AUBURN, NEW YORL- .AS-SIGNOR Tp STVPHENSON PRO- TECTAHOOD CORPORATION, OF AUBURN, NEW YORK, .A CORPORATION V02E" NEW 'YORK AUTOMOBILE Hoon LINLNG Application led August 26, 19.27. Serial No. 215,657.
This invention relates to improvements in linings for automobile hoods.
Heat from the engines of automobiles is radiated through the 'hood of the automobile and in a comparatively short time destroys or seriously impairs the appearance of the finish on thefhood. This is especially true of those automobiles where paint and' varnish is used on the hood, a finish of this character quickly'losing its,luster and quite often cracking. i
One object of the invention is to produce a hood lining to prevent the hood being affected as just described, said lining also" serving the purpose of deadening .noises created by the engine 6r motor. A further object is the provision of a lin ing that will conform to hoods of various contours without causing a fracture or breaking of said lining.
The invention also has as an object a lining more or less impervious to water.l By
having a lining .which absorbs lwater veryslowly, the car or automobile can be washed f without -dangenof the lining Abeing damaged or injured bythe water. In the preferred lining the material used can withstand an immersion test for several hours before becoming saturated or soaked.
In the accompanying drawings,
Figure 1 Ais a cross sectional view illustrating more or less diagrammatically an automobile hood having applied thereto a sheet of lining material made in accordance 3:" with the present invention.
Fig.`2 is a detail perspective view of a sheet of material embodying the present invention. v
'Generally stated, the lining constituting 40 the present invention 'is ofsheet-like formation and consistsof. al sheet of fireproof mai' terial 10 and a sheet of sound deadeningl material 11 mounted on opposite sides of a sheet ,of material 12 capable of creasmg v without cracking or breaking. The inter-I immersed in water for several hours without absorbing a very large amount of water or becoming saturated.
More specifically, intermediate sheet v12 is primarily of vegetable fiber, preferably jute fiber, lined on its two sides with paper 13 while the sheet 10 of iireproof characteristics is made of asbestos. The sheet '11, which is a poor conductor of sound is preferably a fairly good gradea of felt, usually cotton felt, but in order to retain production at alow cost the felt may. be omitted .or a paper felt substituted, The use of the felt against the metal hood not ,only deadens objectionable noises created within the hood but rubbing or movement of the felt surfaces against the metal does not create any noise.
As stated, jute fiber is preferred for the intermediate sheet 12, as it is. resilient and pliant and, therefore, capable of being creased or bent to conform to hoods of various contours without breaking or being ruptured. While the lining, or rather sheet. 12,
yis thus capable of readily conforming to the cross sectional contour of the hood to which it is applied, nevertheless, it possesses suiiicient rigidity to-retain the shape imparted to it without the use of adhesives over its surface. For instance, as shown in Fig.
1, the entire lining vfor the top sections of the hood lies close to the inner surface of the hood although it is actually attached to the hood only at the meeting edges at the center or top of the hood. In'other words, the
rigidity of the finishedlining is such that i may, however, be utilized instead of jute.
This feature is also advantageous infthat the lining cannot be affected or damaged by the water in the radiator boilin The asbestos 10 also lends itself readily i to different configurations and is an excellent non-conductor of heat. Furthermore,
bein next toward 'the motor, danger of fire is eliminated.
Taken as a Whole, therefore, the present lining would appear to be an ideal one as its use in the interior of the hoods has no tendency to increase objectionable noises but, on the contrary, tends to lessen the same; the asbestos next toward the motor decreases the possibilities of re and prevents the transfer of heatl units in both summer and Winter; the asbestos andjute can be creased or shaped to Yconform to the cross section of hoods Without liability of breaking; and the jute prevents injury to the lining by Water coming in contact therewith.
What I claim is: l
1. An automobile hoodlining of sheet-like form consisting of a sheet of double lined jute fiber, said sheet of fiber being resilient and flexible, a covering of asbestos on one side of said sheet of fiber, and a covering of felt on the opposite side of said fiber, said lining being flexible whereby it may readily conform to the shape of a hood and inherently capable of retaining the shape iinparted to it when applied to said hood.
2. An automobile hood lining of sheetlike form comprising a sheet of asbestos constituting the motor exposed surface of the lining, a sheet of felt for disposition against the inner surface of the hood, and an intermediate resilient layer of fibrous material having a low coeilicient of Water absorption and having the capability of sub-A stantial flexure Without fracture.
