Application July 10, 1947, Serial No. 759,945
1 Claim. 1
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in automobile door glass channel retainers.
One object of my invention is to provide a door glass channel retainer adapted to be easily and readily applied to replace the original channel when rusted or worn.
A further object of my invention is to provide a channel retainer of the character specified that is adjustable to the right or left front door or back door.
A still further object of my invention is to provide an automobile door glass channel retainer that is readily adjustable to the length of the glass pan-e1 in the door, or adjustable either up or down to the length of the channel in the door.
Still another object of my invention is to provide a door glass channel retainer of the kind mentioned that is adjustable to the width of the door, thus allowing the glass panel to slide up and down at the right pitch or angle.
With the foregoing and other objects in View that will appear as the nature of my invention is better understood, the same consists in the novel features of construction, combination and ar rangemen t of parts illustrated in the accompanying drawings and more particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
In the accompanying drawings, which are for illustrative purposes only and are therefore not drawn to scale:
Figure 1 is a fragmentary elevational view, partly in section, illustrating the application of my invention.
Figure 2 is an edge view of the parts shown in Figure 1.
Figure 3 is an enlarged detail horizontal section, taken on line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is an enlarged edge view of my door glass channel retainer per se.
Figure 5 is a side elevation of my channel retainer, partly in section, and Figure 6 is an enlarged detail horizontal section, taken on line 6-6 of Figure 4.
Referring to the drawings for a mor particular description of my invention and in which drawings like parts are designated by like reference characters throughout the several views, A designates the door frame, B the glass panel, C the glass channel and D my novel glass channel retainer.
As shown, my glass channel retainer is of U- shape form in cross section to accommodate the glass channel C and is adjustable up and down with respect to the length of the channel in the door. The upper end of the channel retainer D is formed with a flat elongated upwardly extending arm or strip I, whereby the retainer may be secured to the door by means of the fastening screw 2. The arm or strip I is formed with a series of transverse longitudinally spaced apertures 3 .to facilitate adjustment.
A right-angularly bent bracket 4 is adjus'tably secured by means of the transverse bolt 5 and the series of transverse longitudinally spaced openings 5, to the lower end of the glass channel retainer D. One arm, as 1, of the bracket 4 is formed with a central horizontal slot 8 to c0mpensate for any required adjustment of the channel retainer D to permit the glass panel to slide or run up and down in the door at the proper angle. The other arm 9 of the bracket 4 is formed with the upper and lower series of transverse apertures Ill and H and is out to the proper size for the length of the glass panel. The arm 9 is anchored to the door by the fastening screws I2, which extend through the corresponding pair of aligned apertures it and i I.
From the foregoing description taken in com nection with the drawings, it is thought that the construction, operation and advantages of my invention will be readily understood, without requiring a more extended explanation.
Various changes in the form, proportions and minor details of construction, may be resorted to Without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of my invention, as defined in the appended claim.
Having describedmy invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
A device of the character specified, comprising a door glass channel retainer of U-shape form in cross section, said retainer formed at its upper end with a flat elongated integral arm or strip formed with a series of transverse apertures and in its lower end with a series of transverse longitudinally spaced openings, a glass channel mounted in the channel retainer, a right-singularly ben't bracket and a transverse bolt for adjustably securing said bracket to the lower end of said channel retainer, said bracket formed in one arm with a central horizontal slot to receive the body port'ionof said transverse bolt and formed in its other arm with upper and lower aligned serie of transverse apertures, and fastening screws for attach- 'ing said last mentioned arm of the bracket to the door.
