UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICED M. M. LIVINGSTON, OF BROOKLYN, NEV YORK.
IMPROVED MODE OF APPLYlNG NETTINO TO WINDOWS.
I Specification formingpartktof Letters PatentNO. 35,767, dated July l, 1962.
To all whom, it may concern.:
Be it known that I, M. M. LIVINGSTON, of
Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, haveinvented a new and Improved Mode of Applying Netting to Windows; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had tothe accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in which- Figure I is a front View of a window frame and sash, showing my invention applied to them. Fig. 2 is alongitudinal vertical section of the same, taken in the line x x, Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both gures.
The object of my invention is-t-o apply to a window the fabric that may be desired for either a dust-screen or a mosquito-listin such manner that the same shall be self-adjusting, and also so arranged that the whole appliances may be easily and quickly removed from the window.
My invention consists, first, in the employ- Inent or use of elastic bands or equivalents,
thereof secured in the sides of the netting for the purpose of contracting the fabric when the windowgsash is lowered, or, more explicitly, for making the fabric conform to any distance it may be desired to have the window open, and also for keeping said fabric tight up against the weatherst-rips of the window.
both constructed and operating in the usual manner.
a a represent two rods of brass of a length corresponding to the width of the sash and to the inside of the casing to which they are applied. (See Fig. l.) ,Any other elastic metal may be used in lieu of brass, if desired-sa iron or steel japanned to prevent rust. rIhese rods are held in place by screwrings b or hooks b', the rings b being screwed into the lintel of the window A close to the side weatherstrip, and the hooks b being driven into the sash B sufficiently high to clear thelintel when the sash is fully lowered.
To the rods a a is secured the fabric C, designed for the screen or net, by running the said rods through hems in the top and bottoni of the fabric, or in any other suitable way.
In each side ofthe fabric C is woven or 'oth erwise secured an elastic cord, e, of india-rub ber, which cords pass over the bars a a', so as to connect them together. These cords are cut of such a length that when at their farthest tension they will just permit the sash to be fully raised.
I propose to use, when it may be desirable, in lieu of the elastic cords or bands a nonelastic. cord with a weighted tassel, one end of the cord being fastened to the rod a, thence passing up through the side of the netting, over the rod a', and having pendent from its other end a weighted tassel. This arrangement I find will serve to gather up the netting as the sash is lowered, and also keep it (said netting) close up against the weather-strips.
From this brief description it will be seen that when the sash is raised the elastic cords will stretch and cause the netting to conform to any height to which the sash may be raised,
at the same time keeping the fabric close up against the weather-strips, and thus preventing the ingress of dust or mosquitoes. It will also be seen that Whenever it is desired to remove the netting from the windows a slight strain at the centers of the rods will cause the ends to spring out, and hence the whole screen may be easily and quickly removed and again applied with equal facility. l
Screens constructed and applied according to this invention will be found to be simple, cheap, easy of application, and far more desirable than the common squareframe screens or the spring-roller screens, for in the former case the openness o f the window cannot be regulated, and in the latter the fixture cannot be removed without much trouble, and they are also expensive. Thus it will be seen that screens constructed and applied according te my mode are not only self-adjusting, but are also capable of being easily and quickly re moved from the window. They may be ap plied to both the upper and lower sashes offa I .The application of the fabric C, provided window :it the saine ti me, thus insuring as free nventilntion of n room as is desirable, without libe possibilitlI of the annoyance cfmsed by' the ingress of mosquitoes or dust.
Ib may be Well to odd that dust-.screens eon strnolped and applied according to my mode will be found most desirable on the windows of railroad cnrs, for the reason that they are Cheap, compnet', and so simple as noli to be lia ble to geb out of order from rough handling.
Having thus described my invention, what; I claim asnew, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
With elastic cords or bands e, or an equivalent thereof, passing through its sides, to the casing and frame of o, Window, in combination with -t-he rods ce ci and rings or hooks b b', or their equivalents, arranged and operating substantially as and for the purpose herein seb forth.
HENRY T. BROWN, J W'. CooMBs.
