` -GARNISH MoLDING Filed Apri; 22, 1929 ATTO RN EYS Patented M'ay 24, 1932 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HOMER G. KELLOGG, OF lDEIIIB'OIJI, MICHIGAN, ASSGNOR-TO MOTOR PRODUCTS COR- PORATION, F DETROIT, MICHIGAN, A CORPORATION 0F NEW 'YORK GARNISH Application led April 22,
This invention relates to garnish moldings and more particularly to snap-on garnish moldings for door and window openings and the like.
One of the objects of this invention is to provide a garnish molding for association with the lower edge of a window opening, the
body of which is provided'with a depending apron forming a wainscot or trim stick which constitutes a decorative and attractive embellishment or finish for the interior of the car.
Another object of this invention is to provide a molding for window openings in the form of an integral substantially U-shaped strip adapted for engagement, preferably,
snap-on engagement, with anchorage means arranged at the edge of the window opening for providing a finish for threeJ sidesof the opening.
Another object of the invention is to' provide a garnish or finish molding construction l for window openings which is adapted enwith;
Figure 2 is an enlarged vertical sectional View taken substantially on the plane indicated by line 2-2 in Figure 1;
Figure 3 is an 'enlarged detail sectional view taken substantially'on the plane indicated byline 3-3 in Figure 1 and Figure 4 is a fragmentary sectional perspective view of the garnish molding associated with the lower edge o`f the window opening.
Referring now more particularly to the MoLmNG 1929. seran No. 357,149.
drawings wherein like reference characters indicate like parts, it will be noted that there is illustrated fragmentarily a body structure 10 provided with a window opening 11, which window opening is bounded or defined on three sides thereof by frame members 12 and on the bottom by a frame member 13. In
gitudinally extending support engaging portion. l The other longitudinal edge of the body`16 is bent at substantially right angles thereto to provide a downwardly extending flange 19, which also engages the frame member 13 and constitutes the other support engaging portion. The flange 19 is inclined inwardly slightlyunder the body portion 16 for a purpose to be more fully hereinafter referred to. The anchorage strip is lperforated at suitable spaced points for the'reception of securing means 20 which passes therethrough and into the frame member. The body portion 16 of the anchorage strip is obviously spaced from the frame member 13 by reason of the support engaging portions 18 and 19 and by drivin the securing arms firmly in place and also y reason of the inherent resiliency of the anchorage strip the strips will be firmly secured in place.
The reference character 21 indicates generally the garnish molding adapted particularly for association with the lower edge of the window opening. This garnish molding consists of a body portion 22 and a depending apron 23 integrally united as illustrated. The body portion of the garnish molding is adapted for snap-on 'engagement with the anchorage member 15 and for this purpose the free lon itudinal edge lof the body member is provi ed with a return-bent portion '24 terminating in a flange adapted to engage `the flange 19 of the anchorage stri The other longitudinal edge of the garnis molding is provided with a rounded shallow return-bent portion 26 adapted for engagement with the other longitudinal edge of the anchorage strip. In practice, the free edge of the garnish molding is first engaged with the flange 19 of the anchorage thereafter, then the return-bent portion 26 is snapped down over and into engagement with the .other ed e of the anchorage strip.
It will be noted that when the body of the garnish molding is snapped into lace, the apron extends over the face of the rame member. This apron constitutes a decorative wainscot or trim stick and enhances the attractiveness and finished appearance of the interior of the vehicle. l It will be appreciated that the garnish molding constitutes a sill member for the window opening which by reason of the present construction, may be secured in place without the use of visible securing means such as screws or .the like.
The remaining three sides of the window opening are provided with an integralinislf strlp indicated generally by the reference character 27. While this finish can obviously be any preferred or desiredv cross-section in the embodiment herein illustrated, it is formed substantially of the cross sectional shape illustrated in lFigure 3. In this figure, it will be noticed that there is provided anv anchorage member 28, which is substantially ,U-shape in cross section, with the legs of the U bent outwardly as clearly illustrated..l
The finish strip 27 is formed w1th a pair of inwardly extending opposed fflanges 29 at the lon itudinal edges thereof which are adapted or snap-on engagement with the anchorage member 28, as most clearly illustrated in Figure 3. Similar short anchorage members 28 are associated with the vertical edges of the window opening so that the entire stretch of finish molding, which as shown is substantially U-shape in form, may be attached'by snap-on engagement with the threen sides of the window opening. The two ends of the finish strip 27 are shaped as at 30 for a tight snug fit with the adjacent surface of the garnish molding 21.
After the garnish molding 21 at the sill side ofthe window opening has been secured in place, previously ex lained, ,it is then in order to attach the finis molding 27 with the remaining three sides'- of the window opening. "It will be understood that this molding to some degreeresilient and as 'viewedin'Figure 1 that portion of the molding correspondin to the right hand vertical edge of the win ow opening and that portion corresponding to the top horizontal edge .are engaged with the respective anchorage `members and snaple-d into lace. The reymaining leg ofthe sh mol 'ng which corresponds to the left hand ed e ofthe window opening is in the meantime eld substantially in the position indicated by dotted lines in Figure 1, or in other words, is bent or deend of the molding strip as it is being moved -into engagementwith the anchorage member 28.
With this construction the edge of the win'- dow opening is completely finished bymolding strips secured in place without the aid of any visible securing means. When once in place, the structure offers a rigid construction because it will be apparent that the ends of the vertical legs of the molding 27 4bear upon the garnish molding 21 to prevent any displacement of the latter and by reason of the integral U-shape of the moldin 27, this molding when once in place successully resists any attempt to disengage the same. While the invention has been illustrated and described herein somewhat in detail, it will be readily apparent to those skilled in this art that various changes in many of the essential and lnonessential details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and 'scope of this invention and to this end reservation is made to make such changes as may comewithin the purview of the accompanying claims.
What I claim as my inve `tion is:
1. In a molding assembl an anchorage,
, strip having a rounded shoulder at one edge and a substantially perpendicular shoulder atthe other edge, a molding.I strip comprisingapair of substantially right angularlyrr arranged sections with a return-bent portion at the juncture thereof, vand an inwardly extending flange on one edge, said molding bemil y ing adapted for snap-on engagement with said anchorage strip with the edge of said iiange engaging said perpendicularshoulder and said return-bent portion embracing-said rounded shoulder..
2. In a molding assembly, a frame .member, an anchorage strip secured/to said frame member and having one longitudinal edge thereof projecting beyond one edge of said frame member, a molding strip havlng a sill portion and an apron portion at la substantial right-angle thereto, opposed returnbent portions formed in said s11l portion, one 'at the juncture of the sill and apron portions, said return-bentportions being adapted for snap-on engagement with said anchorage strip, said apron overlying the face of said framemember and engaglng the same.
3. In a molding assembly, the combination with a window frame, of an anchorage strip secured thereto having respectively erpendicular and rounded longitudinal e ges, a molding strip having a sill section and depending apron, the free-edge'of said sill section being bent atright angles thereto and then inwardly to form a flange spaced but substantially parallel to said sill section, said flange resting on said frame to space said sill section therefrom, the edge of said flange engaging the perpendicular edge of said anchorage strip, and a return-bent portion at the juncture of said sill section andapron adapted for snap-on engagement with said A rounded edge of the anchorage strip to thus superpose said apron on the face of said frame.
