Description
Sept. 26, 1944. v F. K. FLYNN 2,359,101
ANTI-RATTLER Filed June 26, 1942 Firm Patented Sept. 26, 1944 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE AN'TIRATTLER Francis K. Flynn, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Application June 26, 1942-, Serial No. 448,645
1 Claim. (01. 292-388) This invention relates to an anti-rattler for windows, doors or the like.
It is primarily aimed to provide an exceedingly simple construction which may be used in the crack between window and window frame, door and door frame and the like, regardless of the width of the crack, Within reasonable limits, thus avoiding the necessity of providing as is necessary under present conditions wedges which must be of a great variety of thicknesses and shapes to fit the various widths of cracks which are encountered, andI further aim to provide such a construction which will avoid the necessity of wedging an anti-rattler in place and one which will not be displaced through wind vibration.
The more specific objects and advantages will in part be pointed out and otherwise become apparent from the description following taken in connection with accompanying drawing illustrating an exceedingly simple, effective and durable embodiment.
In said drawing- 7 Figure 1 is a view showing the invention in plan and as applied in the crack between a window and window frame, the latter being shown fragmentarily and in horizontal section;
Figure 2 is a plan view of the anti-rattler detached and in normal condition;
Figure 3 is an end elevation of the anti-rattler looking from the handle end; and
Figure 4 is an edge elevation of the anti-rattler.
Referring specifically to the drawing wherein like reference characters designate like or similar parts, the anti-rattler is shown at I and is adapted to be made from a single piece or strip of resilient material, for instance spring steel, brass, other metals and plastics. One terminal of the anti-rattler or strip is preferably serrated as at II while the other terminal adjacent thereto is preferably sharpened and extends angularly therefrom at I2. Adjacent these terminals, the strip is in contact at I3 and above the zone of contact the strip is formed into a relatively large open loop or handle I I.
The anti-rattler is used in preventing rattling or vibration under wind or other conditions, between a window I5 and its frame I6 in which it slides, it being understood that the parts I5 and I6 are shown by way of example only since the invention is equally applicable to doors and other closures. The terminal I2 is adapted to be disposed in the crack I'I between the window I5 and frame I6. With my invention, the same is applicable in connection with cracks ll of various widths. In applying the anti-rattler, the handle I4 is grasped and squeezed or manipulated, relatively moving the parts thereof in contact at I3 until the terminal I2 is sufiiciently close to the teeth II to enable insertion of the terminal I2 into the crack I! by lateral sliding movement so that it will occupy the position of Figure 1. When so positioned, the handle or loop I4 is released and the tension of such handle or of the anti-rattler as a whole will depress the teeth II into the frame I5 while moving the terminal I2 away from such sash I5. It will be realized that the device is gripped and operated somewhat in the same manner as a pistol.
Various changes may be resorted to provided they fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
I claim as my invention:
An anti-rattler comprising a resilient strip having approximately straight contacting relatively longitudinally slidable first and second portions, said portions having disaligned terminals so that one of them may enter a crack and the other may engage an adjacent closure, the terminals of said first mentioned portion being angularly disposed with respect to the other terminal, said other terminal being toothed, and a loop connecting said portions, extending immediately from the first mentioned portion and disposed on the opposite side thereof to said angular terminal and then being returned to the other portion to function as a handle and to place one portion in tension for longitudinal sliding movement to, separate the terminals when applied.
FRANCIS K. FLYNN.
