FAN VENTILATOR FOR CORRUGATED GLASS STRUCTURES Feb. 9, 1932.
Filed July 2, 1930 #Mo \g/uman Patented Feb. 9, 1932 UNITED STATES ARNO SHUMAN. F PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR TO PENNSYLVANIA WIRE GLASS COMPANY, OF PHILADELPHIA,
NEW JERSEY FAN VENTILATOR FOR CORRUGATED GLASS STRUCTURES Application filed July 2; 1930 Serial No. 465,295.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide fan ventilation in structures' containing corrugated glass at little expense and with ease of installation. An other object of the invention is to provide in 'such a structure for drainage.
Generally stated, the invention comprises a panel having an opening and provided with a fan operatively arranged in respect to the opening, said panel suspended from the roof structure and arranged between and above corrugated glass sheets and lapping the edges thereof, a hood surrounding the fan, and a gutter into which the hood discharges and which has communication through the panel from the inside to the outside.
The invention also comprises the improvements to be presently described and finally claimed. I
In the following description reference will be made to the accompanying drawings forming part hereof and in which Figure 1 is a sectional view taken crosswise of a purlin and illustrating features of the invention.
Fig. 2 is a front view drawn toa reduced scale and illustrating so much and such parts of a roof or wall structure as is necessary to show features of the invention.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 83 of Fig. 2 looking in the direction of the arrows, and
Fig. 4 is a sectional'view taken on the line 45-4 of Fig. 2 looking downward in the direction of the arrows.
In the drawings 1 indicates a roof structure member which as shown is of the saw tooth type having one of its faces enclosed with corrugated glass, plain or wire. The sheets of corrugated glass 2, 3 and i are spaced, the sheet 3 from the roof structure member 1,-and the sheets 2 and 4 from each other to provide an open space. There is a panel 5, as of metal, and it is suspended from the roof structure and covers the open space referred to. The panel laps the marginal portions of the glass adjacent to the open space, Fig. 4. As shown the panel is suspended from the purlin 6 by brackets 7, and an angle iron 8 to which it is secured so as to underlie the flashing or like portion of the roof structure 9. The panel includes a fan driven by a motor 10 and arranged opposite an opening llprovided in the panel. As shown the fan is carried by the panel through the frame 12. 13 is a hood open at the top as at 14, and is secured to the rafter or framing strips 15. 16 is a gutter closed at its ends and'carried by the panel and into which the l21od discharges through suitable openings at. of glass 3 and discharges through the panel by the holes 17 onto the outer face of the glass 3. At the side edges of the panel, Fig. 1,. and secured thereto by fastenings 18, are strips 19 having projecting portions 20 and 21 extending generally at right angles thereto. The portion 21 of these strips serves to I hold the panel against the sheets of glass 2 and 4 respectively. The portion 20 of the strips resting against the panel acts as a fulcrum for the bolt by which the strip. is secured tothe panel. 22 are shutters serving to close the opening 11 when the fan is not in operation and they will open under the influence of the .airblast from the fan. 7
water of condensation or otherwise enters the open top 14 of the hood 13 and passes through openings 23 into the gutter 16, and from there through openings 17 to the out side. It is an advantage that the panel, hood, gutter, framing strips and accessories can be made standard and assembled and then applied to the construction. 9 It will be obvious to those skilled in the art to which the invention relates that modifications may be made in details of construction and arrangement and matters of mere form without departing from the spirit of the invention which is not limited to such matters or otherwise than the prior art and the appended claims may require.
I claim:

Means for ventilating a roof or wall structure comprising corrugated sheets of glass spaced from a member of the roof structure and from each other to provide an open space, a panel suspended from the roof structure and covering said open space and lapping the marginal side portions of the glass PENNSYLVANIA, A CORPORATION or The gutter structure overlies the sheet 7 adjacent the open space, a fan carried by the panel and arranged opposite an opening provided in the panel, an open top hood arranged inside of the panel, and a gutter into which the hood discharges, said panel having openings from the gutter to the outside of the roof.
2. Means for ventilating a roof or wall structure comprising corrugated sheets of glass spaced from a member of the roof structure and from each other to provide an open space, a panel suspended from the roof structure and covering said open space and lapping the marginal side portions of the glass adjacent the open space, a fan carried by the panel and arranged opposite an opening provided in the panel, an open top hood arranged inside of the panel, a gutter into which the hood discharges, said panel having openings from the gutter to the outside of the roof, and marginal strips of metal overlying the side edges of the spaced sheets of glass and secured to the panel and holding the latter down upon the roof.
3. Means for ventilating a roof or wall structure comprising corrugated sheets of glass spaced from a member of the roof structure and from each other to provide an open space, interconnected rafter and purlin framing strips depending from the roof structure and arranged at the edges of said space, a panel suspended from the roof structure and covering said space and lapping the marginal side portions of the glass adjacent said space, a fan arranged opposite an opening provided in the panel, an open top hood arranged inside the panel and carried by the framing strips, and a gutter carried by the framing strips and into which the hood discharges, said panel having openings from the gutter to the outside of the roof.
4. Means for ventilating a roof or Wall structure comprising corrugated sheets of glass spaced from a member of the roof structure and from each other to provide an open space, interconnected rafter and purlin framing strips depending from the roof structure and arranged at the edges of said space, a panel suspended from the roof structure and covering said space and lapping the marginal side portions of the glass adjacent said space, a fan arranged opposite an opening provided in the panel, an open top hood arranged inside the panel and carried by the framing strips, a gutter carried by the framing strips and into which the hood discharges, said panel having openings from the gutter to the outside of the roof, and marginal strips of metal overlying the side edges of the spaced sheets of glass and secured to the panel and holding the latter to the roof.
