SECTIONAL METALLIC AWNING Filed March 13, 1951 INVENTOR. VV////'a/I7 I Jm/fh wa /aw A TTORNE Y Patented July 14, 1953 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SEOTIONAL METALLIC AWNING William I. Smith, Perrysburg, Ohio, assignor to The Hettrick Manufacturing Company, Toledo, Ohio, a corporation of Ohio Application March 13, 1951, Serial No. 215,276
1 Claim.
Figure l is a front perspective view of the awning in assembled condition Figure 2 is an enlarged transverse sectional View on the line 2-2 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a perspective view of one of the awning panels which is formed with a downturned fiange at its upper end;
Figured is a fragmentary enlarged sectional view on the line 4-4 of Figure 1; and I Figure 5 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view of one of the marginal panels showing the metal awning, the sections or panels of which can manner in which the tie rod and the side screen is connected thereto.
The illustrated embodiment of the invention comprises a sheet metal awning having a body composed of a series of parallel downwardly inclined panels Ill which alternate with panels II. Each of the panels has an integral downturned lower edge portion l2. The panels l0 and H are similar to each other, although certain differences in construction exist between these two types of panels. The panels Ill are-formed on each longitudinal side with downturned flanges l3. Similarly the panels ll are formed with integral downturned flanges I i but which are slightly longer than the flanges i3 of the panels Hi. In each of the panel flanges l3 and 4 at points equi-distantly spaced from the free edges thereof are apertures 15 through which tie rods l6 extend. As
shown, a tie rod is disposed adjacent the upper end of each of the panels, two in intermediate portions of the panels and another one near the free ends of the downturned portions l2. The arrangement is such that the panels I] project upwardly a slight distance above the panels Hi. This enables the panels I l to be differently colored from the panels I I as desired, to present a pleasing and attractive appearance. At the free end i It is tobe understood that numerous changes of each of the downturned panel portions [2 is an inturned flange l7. Closing each side of the awning is a metallic screen H! which is clamped to the under side of the outer panel flange 13 by a nut l9 engaging the threaded outer portions of the tie rods l6 which extend through the screen. On the outer face of the flanges l3 and threadedly engaging the free ends of the tie rods l6 are nuts 20. By tightening the nuts l9 and 26, not only are the panels secured together but also the edge portions of the screens l8. A channel-shaped strip 2| engages the lower edge of each screen [8 and a similar strip 22 engages the rear vertical edge of each screen I8, the latter having laterally extending apertured tabs 23 to receive screws for attachingthat portionof the awning to the building structure.
, At the upper end of each of the panels Hl is an integral upwardly inclined end portion 24; and a metallic header bar 25 extends horizontally along the upper-end of the awning covering the end portions 24, these parts being apertured to receive screws 26 for securing the upper portion of the awning to a building structure, as shown in Figure 4. The upper ends of the panels II have be readily and conveniently assembled by merely applying the tie rods as above described. Although the alternating panels are slightly different frorn the others, the various parts can be economically manufactured on a quantity basis. The width of the awning can be varied as desired by merely employing a greater or lesser number of After the parts are assembled, the mounting of the awning in position of use can be simply achieved by applying the header bar 25 and screws through the apertures provided therefor. Screws applied to'the apertured tabs 253 secure that portion of the awning in place.
in details of construction, arrangement-and operation may be effected without departing from the spirit of the invention especially as defined in the appended claim. I
What I claim is:
;An awning comprising a body having a plurality of parallel downwardly inclined sheet metal panels, downturned flanges on opposite longitu dinal sides of said panels arranged so'that flanges of adjacent panels are in abutment, the flanges of alternate panels being longer than the others, registering apertures in the flanges of the several panels spaced equi-distantly from the free edges thereof, a tie rod extending through said apertures for detachably connecting together the panels, upwardly inclined apertured upper end portions on the-panels having shorter flanges,
downwardly inclined end portions on the panels having longer flanges, and a header bar covering said upwardly inclined end portions and apertured to receive screws for fastening the awning in place.
