IMPROVEMENT IN oooR-slLLsf Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 187,419, dated February 13, 1877; application filed January 17, 1877.
To all whom it may concern 7 Be it known that I, ANTON SAUR, of Franklin, in the county of Johnson, and in the State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Door-Sills and Door- Strips; and do hereby declare that the following ,is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in the construction of a door-sill, in the manner hereinafter set forth.
In the accompanying drawings making part of this specification, Figure 1 represents a cross-section of the sill; and Fig. 2 a plan view.
In thefigures, A represents a metallic doorsill, which is hollowed out on the under side, as seen. B represents a bottom, which is fitted into the cavity ot'the sill in such a manner that a water-space'is left between it and the sill. a a a represent outlets from this waterspace and which are formed in the front of the sill or its bottom. The upper surface of the sill is provided with a series of grooves which open into each other, and some of which radiateoutward. These grooves are marked G G, and answer the purpose of collecting and conveying the water into the holes 6 e in the bottoms of said grooves, from which it passes down to the bottom B,,,and thence out at the openings a a a. The grooves are so formed that dirt and dust may be easily swept from them outward. This sill may be used with an ordinary weather-strip D, as seen upon the section of a door in Fig. 1.
The object of this sill is to prevent the drifting of water under the door in case a strong wind is blowing toward it.
Having thus fully described. my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The sill A, constructed as described, in combination with the bottom B and a door, as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 11th day of January, 1876.
