SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 296,158, dated April 1, 1884.
Applicationfiled December 15, 1883. (No model.)
To. aZZ whom it may concern Beit known that I, DAVID GIBBONS, a citizen of the United States,residing at Joppa, in the county of Hendricks and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Weather-Strips; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will I enable others skilled in the art to which it apbeing had to the accompanying drawings, and
pertains to make and use the same, reference to letters orfigures of reference marked there- 1 on, which form a part of this specification.

strips for doors; and it consistsin the construction and novel arrangement of simple devices whereby an effective protection to the opening between the door and sill is provided In the accompanyingdrawings, the letter A designates the door, and B the door-sill or thresholdstrip in the doorway. This strip is provided with an extension or bearing, 0, on the inside of the doorway, near its hinged portion. The surface of this extension is level with the top of the threshold-strip, with Usually the threshold-strip and itsextension are covered with tin or zinc. U
D represents the weather-strip, which is made of sheet metal,and consists of two portions-the upper or stationary part, E, which is secured to the door, and its lower movable part or guard-plate, F, which is connected to the upper portion by a longitudinal joint, as at G. This joint is formed in the following manner: The upper or stationary portion,E,
of the strip ismade vertical in its upper part, h, and this vertical flange is perforated for the passage of the tacks or screws, whereby it is secured to the door! From. this vertical flange the body of this piece E extends outward and downward obliquely, as shown at k, andthe lower marginal portion of the piece is turned inward in the form of a long horizontal under-hook flange, z, the edge of which, while it approaches the surface of the door, does not touch it, an interval beingleft for the play of the upper part of the movable lower portion, F. of the strip, the upper marginal portion of which is bent outward, forn1- ing an over-hook flange, m, which engages the inwardly turned or reversed flange z of the upper piece. The lower section, F, is prevented from any lateral displacement of the upper section by means of pinsi t, which are driven in the door at the respective ends of the joint G. In this manner a strong horizontal joint is formed, which is without perforation or opening in either flange. The lower portion of the movable piece F is bent in outward concave form, as shown, so that itwill move easily and without noise over the carpet and threshold. WVhen the horizontal hook-joint is properly formed, the hook-flanges are so arranged that they provide, by their engagement, a stop preventing the movable piece from swinging below a certain level, so that it need not touch the carpet.- When the door is 'closed,the guard-plate of the strip is raised automatically and gradually by the salient portions of the extension, so that it passes over the threshold easily and without noise. With this strip no molding of wood is required,and a spring is unnecessary.
I am aware that it is not new to construct a weather-strip in two sections, the adjacent horizontal ends of which are bent in opposite directions for engagement with each other, and that door-sills have been provided on their inner sides with a semicircular extension i for guiding the lower section of the strip to I its proper position, and therefore do not claim such constructions, broadly; but,
