' MEANS AND METHOD FOR WEATHER STRIPFING Filed Aug. 12, 1951 INVENTOR HIS ATTORNEYS Patented May 14, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT, OFFICE MEANS AND METHOD FOR WEATHER STRIPPING 1 Claim.
This invention relates to certain novel improvements in means and method for Weatherstripping, and has for its principal object the provision of an improved construction of this character which will be highly efficient in use and economical in manufacture.
While various types of weatherstrips have been used heretofore in the art these weather strips have been customarily made of either metallic material or fibrous material, such as felt, and. it has been my experience that when placed upon the bedding points or contacts of a window sash such material warps the frame of the sash when the movable section of the sash is closed thereagainst. The result of this warping of the sash is that the sash is no longer rain and storm proof.
It is, therefore, the salient object of this invention to provide means for Weatherstripping which will not warp the sash when applied to the bedding points and which may therefore be used without injury to the sash, while providing perfect storm proof contact between the bedding points.
Another object of the invention is to provide novel means for Weatherstripping which may be applied in less time and with less labor and expense than the weatherstrips used heretofore in the art.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
The invention consists in the novel combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention will be best understood by reference to the accompanying drawing, showing the preferred form of construction and in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a typical window sash depicting my invention installed on the bedding points thereof; and
Fig. 2 is a horiozntal sectional view taken substantially on the line 22 in Fig. 1. 7
Referring to the drawing wherein a preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated, generically indicated at I0 is the stationary section of a window sash which is hinged by suitable hinge structures II to the movable section generically indicated at I2. Included in the section I2 is the frame I8, partitions I9 and panes of glass 20. Included in the section I0 is the frame 2| and the bedding contacts or points I3 against which the bedding contacts I4 of the movable section I2 abut when the section I2 is moved into closed position with respect to the section III, a suitable handle I5 being provided on the section I2 for moving the same.
Along the bedding contacts or points I3 and I4 it has been customary heretofore to arrange metal or felt strips which, when the section I2 would be moved into closed position, would warp the frame I0 so that the frame I0 would no longer be storm proof but would permit rain to pass therethrough. In order to overcome this difficulty, I provide on the bedding contacts or surfaces I4 an innately adhesive gum-like body such as will solidify upon exposure to air but will not crankor disintegrate, and for this purpose any suitable gum-like adhesive substance may be used. This material may be spread over the surfaces M by meansof any suitable tool such as, for example, a putty knife.
Over the body I 6 on the bedding surfaces I4 I arrange strips. of wax covered paper II. The movable section I2 is then closed so that the strips I'I abut the bedding surfaces I3 and the gum-like body I6 is thus pressed out fiat, the strips I'I preventing the same from running off the bedding surfaces I4. After the body I6 has been allowed to stand a suitable length of time, the strips H are peeled off and the result is that the gum-like body I6 provides a storm proof weather contact between the bedding points I4 and I3 which will not warp the sash as have the felt and metal strips used heretofore.
Another method of carrying the invention into effect is to smear lard or the like on the strips i1 and then attach the strips I! to the bedding contacts I3 by means of the lard, before applying the body I6 to the contacts I4, this method being particularly practicable in windy weather.
The construction of the window sash illustrated in the drawing may be of any suitable type since the same forms no part of my invention and my invention may be applied to any type of Window sash.
From the foregoing description of the invention it will be apparent to persons skilled in the art that I have provided an improved method of Weatherstripping which can not only be applied with a minimum of time and labor and without special skill, but which effectivelyprevents the warping of the sash caused by felt and metal weatherstrips.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred form of construction for carrying my invention into effect, this is capable of variation and modification, without departing from the spirit of the invention. 1, therefore, do not wish to be limited to the precise details of construction set forth, but desire to avail myself of such variations and modifications as come within the scope of the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to protect by Letters Patent is:
In a window sash and its associated frame each having a bedding contact, a resilient seal between the bedding contacts, said seal being pressed between the bedding contacts in a plastic condition, to mold the seal to the exact formation of the clearance between the bedding contacts.
