WEATH ER-STRI P.
SPECIFICATION forming part of 'Letters Patent No. 293,385, dated February 12, 1884.
Application filed August 23, 1883. (No model.)
To aZZ- whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DAVID WARNOCK, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Olathe, in the county of Johnson and State of Kansas, have inventedcertain new and useful Improvements in Weather-Strips, of which the following is a specification.
closed.
-A A are the side frames of the door. 13 is the sill. C is the door, hinged within the frame, as usual. v
The strip consists of two pieces, D and E, the latterconsisting of a metal plate bent to an L shape in crosssection, so that the horizontal part will lie flat'upon the sill B, while the vertical portion is flat upon the vertical rise of the sill, and in this vertical portion, near the lower edge, are openings 00, through which pass staples a upon which the plate will play or swing with a hinge-like action;
The corner 6 of the plate E, which is nearest the hinged edge of the doorfis bent upward to form a lip, and a plate, i, is'i'ast-ened to the face of the door near the corner, so that as the door is closed the contact of the plate '5 and lip 6 will lift theplate until it assumes the angular position'shown in Fig. 3, with ,its inner edge bearing against the door.
The part D consists of a plate fastened to the outer face of the door, and bent to form an inclined flange, m, which occupies such a position that when the door is closed, so as to tiltthe plate E, the said flange will extend over and bear directly upon the upper edge of the plate, so that when the parts are in this position the passage of dust, wind, or rain between the door and the sill is effectually prevented. When the door is. opened, the plate E will turn down to a horizontal position and lie flat upon the sill, covering the latter and presenting no obstruction to a free passage through the doorway.
It will be seen that the parts above described consist of ordinary cheap metal, and may be made in suitable lengths, so that by means of a slight amount of cutting, and by the use of a few staples and nails,"they may be secured to any door.
I am aware that, broadly, it is not new to pivot a weather-strip between the side frames of a door, the forward edge of which strip is adapted to be elevated and projected between strips on the door when the latter is closed to exclude dirt, rain, &c., and this construction I do not claim; but
I claim A Weatherstrip for doors, consisting of an L-shaped plate, E, provided with a corner lip, 6, with recesses 00, and secured by staples to the sill of the door, in combination with a corner-plate, 6, arranged upon the door to bear against the inner side of the lip e, and aplate, D, provided with an inclined flange, m, and connected to the door, substantially as set forth.
' In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
DAVID WARNOOK.
