SOLOMON FUNK, OF SPIRIT LAKE, IOIVA.
WEATHER-STRIP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 311,825, dated February 3, 1885.
Application filed June 28, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that l, SOLOMON FUNK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Spirit Lake. in the county of Dickinson and State of Iowa, 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 enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon. which form a part of this specification.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a vertical sectional view of my device, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the same.
This invention has relation to threshold weather-strips for outer doors; and it consists in the construction and novel arrangement of parts, as hereinafter set forth, and pointed out in the appended claim.
The object of this invention is to provide a simple and effective weather-strip which can be easily made and readily applied.
In the accompanving drawings, theletter A designates the threshold-piece at the base of the doorway, in which is formed a longitudinal groove or recess, B, extending from jamb to jamb. Along each margin of the recess is formed a rabbet, 0, so that the upper portion of said recess is made broad enough to receive the weather-strip D.
Inserted into end recesses or seats at the ends of the recess B are the upright jambplates E, which are secured to the jamb by screws 9. In these plates are made perforations 71, or bearings for journals In of the weather-strip. These journals are located on the ends of the weathcrstrip,at the edge of the samewhich is farthest from the door. The strip therefore extends between the plates, and they are connected to the journals before they are placed in position and secured to the jambs. When in position, the weather-strip, which is usually made of metal, rests in the recess B on the ledges formed by the rabbets thereof. Its upper surface is designed to be level with that of the threshold-piece, so that it will form no obstruction to the feet of persons passing in or out. The outer portion of the lower edge ofthe door is rabbeted, as shown at L, the rabbet extending across. the door. To the lower edge of the door is secured a screw, 8, which projects a little at its lower portion in front of the vertical wall of ther d7- bet L, and extends downward sufficiently to engage the free edge of the thresholdstrip at the point 211, where a little rise is provided, and where said strip is beveled a little on its edge underneath to facilitate the engagement; or the lifting-guide 8 may move in a curved groove cut in the thresholdstrip, and communicating with the inner rabbet of the recess. A common wood-screw will answer to form the liftinggnide, its beveled head serving excellently well to raise the Weatherstrip so that its free edge will engage the rabbet L of the door when the latter is closed. Dust getting into the recess B can be swept from the rab bets info the lower groove, and taken there from when necessary.
I am aware that it is not broadly new to recess the under edge of a door and'provide the same with an inclined lug to engageapivotcd or hinged weather-strip, the said strip being adapted, when raised, to engage the said.
recessed portion of the door, and therefore do not claim such devices, broadly.
Having described this invention, what claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination, with the threshold having a recess to receive the Weatherstrip, which is journaled therein, of the door'having its lower inner edge rabbeted and provided with a wood-screw having its conical head extending down into the said rabbet and adapted to engage the strip at its beveled portion and raise the same into the rabbet of the door, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
S. FUNK.
