UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM B. JONES, OF NEWTON, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND SUMNER B. MARSHALL, OF SAME PLACE.
WEATHER-STRIP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 239,049, dated March 22, 1881.
Application filed June 22, 1880. (ModeL) To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM B. JONES, of Newton, in the county of Jasper and State of Illinois, have invented a new and Improved Weather-Strip, of which the following is a specification. I
The object of this invention is to provide a weather-strip and adjusting device especially designed for application to the bottoms of doors.
The invention consists of a hinged weatherstrip secured on a door, near the bottom thereof, in combination with adjusting-blocks secured on the door-jamb and on the floor of the room, as hereinafter set forth.
Figure 1 is a front elevation of a section of a door and door-frame, showing part of the combined device attached. Fig. 2 is a transverse section of door-frame and door, showing the combined devices in position. Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional elevation on line 00 m, Fig. 2, showing the door in the act of closing. Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional elevation on line :0 w, Fig. 2, showing the door closed.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
In the drawings, A represents a door-frame, and B a door hinged thereto.
0 represents the floor of a room, and D is a semicircular flat block fastened on the floor O, at the rear end of the door-sill B and flush with the top thereof.
E is the weather-strip, consisting of two strips, a b, hinged together longitudinally, so that when the strip a is nailed upon the door B, as shown, the strip b hangs downward on an incline in contact with the sill B, and the joint between the two strips to b is covered by the hinge thereof, so that no rain can enter said joint from above.
F is a block or button pivoted by a screw or pin, d, on the door-jamb G in such a position that the weather-strip E must come in contact with its beveled edge when the door B is being closed, and be thereby pressed down in close contact with the sill B; and said block or button F has a curved slot, 9, made through .it above its pivoting-point, through which slot 9 is passed a pin, h, into the door-jamb G to prevent excessive movement of said block or button F, as otherwise said block F might swing horizontally and interfere with the closing of the said door B. On opening and closing the door B, the lower edge of the weatherstrip E is supported by the block D and thereby carried clear of the carpet. on closing said door B the face of the weather-strip E at its outer end shuts against the adjustable block F, and said weather-strip E is thereby forced down on the door-sill B, and is bound tightly on the door, thereby making it impossible for water to be driven in or about said weather-strip E.
It will be seen that this device operates without springs, and therefore is more durable than those having springs, which springs become weakfrom constant use; and it will be seen that the block F forms a water-tight joint at point of contact with the strip E, so that this weather-strip, combined with the block F. perfectly fulfills its functions.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- 1. The block F, pivoted on the door-jamb,
having a curved slot, 9, above the pivotingpoint, in combination with the jamb G and pin h, as and for the purpose specified.
2. The combination, with the weather-strip E, of the fixed block D and pivoted block F, door B, and door-frame A, substantially as herein shown and described.
WILLIAM B. JONES.
