I. M. SNYDER RADIATOR COVER May 3, 1955 Filed Nov, 2, 1951 lNvEN'fbR /NZ M SNYDER ATTORNEYS BY W1 United States Patent RADIATOR COVER Inez M. Snyder, Chicago, Ill. Application November 2, 1951, Serial No. 254,533
2 Claims. (Cl. 257--136) This invention relates to a radiator cover and more particularly to a cover which may be easily applied and removed.
It is an object of the invention to provide a radiator cover made of a plastic material which is perfectly pliable and may be folded and stored when not in use, occupying in such a folded position a very small space. It is a futher object of the invention to provide a plastic fabric cover with an open grill section to permit the flow of heated air from the radiator. A still further object resides in the provision of snap buttons to easily and quickly remove and apply the cover off and on its radiator.
Further objects will be apparent from the following description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the cover applied on its radiator,
Fig. 2 is a front plan view of a portion of the grill section in the cover,
Fig. 3 is a cross section taken on line 33 of Fig. 1, and
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a top support for the cover.
The cover 5 is shown as applied and fitting on a radiator 6 with the open bottom edge 7 extending down to almost touch the floor on which the radiator rests. A space between the bottom edge 7 of the cover and the floor is essential to permit air to circulate up around the radiator 6 or if it is desired to extend the cover all the way to the floor, a small section may be cut out from the bottom on the side which is adjacent the wall against which radiators are usually placed or located.
The various edge corners 8 are stitched together and a piping 9 is provided as will be more clearly seen from Fig. 3.
The front surface or panel 10 is provided with a grill or cut-out section 11, Fig. 2, near the top thereof, consisting of cut square openings 12 in the panel 10. Any number of openings 12 may be provided and they may be of any desired shape or configuration. It is, however, preferable to provide a reinforcing section 13 which is stitched to the back of the panel 10 and which is likewise provided with openings 14 corresponding with and registering with the openings 12. Lines of stitching 15 are suitably provided along the ribs 16 between the various openings, and the openings 12 and 14 are for the purpose of permitting hot air to flow from the proximity of the radiator 6.
The two edges 17 along each side of the top panel 18 are preferably made so that it may be separated as shown in Fig. 3, and preferably snap fasteners 19 are secured to a pair of tape members 20 as well as to the folds 21 of the plastic fabric of which the entire cover is made.
The top panel 18 which is also made of plastic is preferably provided on its underside with a rather stiff board or sheet 22 made of any suitable material, such as cardboard, wood, asbestos, or even of plastic. This sheet 22 rests directly on the top of the radiator 6 and tends to maintain the top part of the cover 5 in shape so that it will not sag or otherwise get out of shape. The sheet 22 is approximately the same size as the top panel 18 and may be provided with a small cut-out portion 23 to accommodate a valve 24 if the radiator happens to be provided with such a valve at the top of the radiator.
The cover 5 is preferably made of a heavy and durable plastic fabric or material which may comprise any desired color and may even simulate leather. The grill section 11 is of double material stitched together as indicated. It is also possible to place the cover on the radiator so that the grill will face the wall, and in that way the front panel of the cover will be plain and the grill will be concealed.
It is, of course, obvious that various modifications may be made in connection with the cover within the scope of the appended claims.
I claim as my invention:
1. A radiator cover comprising front and back panels, two side panels and a top panel, a sheet of rigid material under the top panel means in the form of seams to secure the panels together to form a cover to fit over the radiator, means in the front panel to form a grill to permit the air heated by the radiator to flow from the inside of the cover, said panels and grill being composed of plastic sheet material, and a reinforcing section stitched to the back of the front panel corresponding to the grill in the front panel, said cover being reversible on the radiator.
2. A radiator cover comprising front and back panels, two side panels and a top panel, means in the form of seams to secure the panels together to form a cover to fit over the radiator, and means in one of the front and back panels to form a grill to permit the air heated by the radiator to flow from the inside of the cover, said panels and grill being composed of plastic sheet material, and said grill being composed of a plurality of spaced holes in the respective panel with a reinforcing section having corresponding holes stitched to the respective panel.
