.ifo (LZ when?, if mtl-N (foncer/L:
Be it known that I, NioiioLfis J. BIsHorniek, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in ViiirlowScreens, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
"lhis invention is in th e nature of an improvement in that class of window-screens arranged to be placed in position for use, and to be removed when not desired for use, by means of a roller, after the manner of a window-curtain.
The improvement consists of a windowscreen the fabric of which is provided with headed buttons secured to its longitudinal edges, and which fabric is attached to a roller secured in any ordinary manner to the window-casing, combined with vertical guides attached to the4 sides of the window-casing, and composed of 'longitudinallygrooved strips having longitudinally-slotted face-pieces, in which guides, so constructed, the headed buttons and the longitudinal edges of the fabric enter, and are secured in such manner as to permit the movement of the fabric up and down over the window, the fabric being stiffened transversely, all substantially as hereinafter specified and claimed.
ln the accompanying drawings illustrating my invention, in the several figures of which like parts are similarly designated', Figure ll is a front elevation of a window provided with my screen, the box for the roller and the vertical guides being partly broken away. Fig. 2 is a cross-section on the line @c a", Fig. l. Fig. .3 is a view in front elevation ofa modification.
a designates a piece of fabric suitable for window-screens-such, for instance, as wire netting-and I prefer afabric thelongitudinal v edges of which are selvage. One end of this fabric secured in any ordinary manner to any suitable rolling device-such, for example, as a Hartshorn spring curtain-roller-b, which may be secured to the window-casing by the usual brackets, c c. This roller is incased in a box, d, attached with a close joint at its upper edge to the window-easing, and slotted or open at its lower edge for the passage through it of the screen. a. This box so incloses the (No m odeLl roller and tits to the casing as to prevent ingress of insects above the roller. c e are grooved strips attached vertically to the sides of the window-casing, and these strips have longitudinally -slotted face -pieces f. The screen fabric is provided at intervals along its longitudinal edges with headed metallic buttons g, the heads of which buttons fit loosely inv the grooves of these strips c, and their shanks, together with the longitudinal edges of the fabrica, fit inr the slots in the faceplates f, so as to permit the movement up and down tension device for the fabric, and it furtherl serves to make a close joint with the windowsash. It isobvious that with this arrangement of the fabric the screen can be arranged to cover an opening in the window made by the movement of either the upper or lower sash.
In Fic. 3 I have shown the fabric of a .length sufficient to cover one sash only, for economy of material, and have secured the fabric to the roller by means of a number of tapes or ribbons, t', the construction and operation being otherwise the same as that j ust above described.
In rolling up or nnrolling the screen fabric the headed buttons pass the ends of the roller,
their Shanks lying fiat upon the periphery of 9o the roller 5 hence such buttons offer no impediment to the action of the roller, and do not require any special construction of roller or peculiar arrangement-of screen fabric with relation to the roller.
By this construction of window-screen I obviate the necessity of altering the sash or casing of the window. The guides l employ being independently attachable, the screen can be applied. very readily to any kind of window IOO guides, th rough which insects may readily enter secure by Letters Patent, is.-
. struction utterly impractieable for application casing, and is adapted to be raised and lowered without. reference to the sash.
I am aware that it is old to apply to thefaces of window-frames sheet-metal guides the slots in which are arranged at the front, and which slotted guides receive the heads of rightangled buttons attached to the edges of ordinary curtains; but, as is obvious, the edges of the curtains do not and cannot enter the guides; hence openings are left between the curtains and into the apartment, thus rendering such conto a screen.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to l. The herein -described window screen, composed ofthe reticulated fabric a, the headed buttons g, secured to its longitudinal edges, a roller to which said fabric is connected, the groovedstrips e, arranged longitudinally of the window, and provided with thefacefpieces f, slotted lengthwise andv receiving` the buttons l and edges of the fabric, and the transverse stifi'ening-bar h, engaging the 'slotted facepieces, all and severally as and for the purpose specified.
2. The combination and arrangement, snb stantially as shown and described, of the reticulated fabric a, the headed buttons g, secured to its longitudinal edges, a roller, and
tapes or ribbons i, by which said fabric is conv nected to the roller, the grooved strips e, to receive the headed buttons, and the longitudi` nally-slotted face-pieces f of said strips, in which the edges of the fabric are arranged to form insect-tight joints, and a transverse stiff'- ening-piece, h, also engaging said slotted facepieces, to hold the fabric extended and guide it in its movements.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 21st day of February, A. D. 1883.
