Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES O. CLAY,Y OF HUDSON, VISCONSIN, ASSIGNOR TO F. C. GRIDLEY, OF SAME PLAGE.
IMPROVEMENT IN WEATHER-STRIPS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patr nt No. 36,93 l, dated November 11,1662.
T0 @ZZ whom t may concern,.-
Be it known that I, JAMES O. CLAY, of Hudson, in the county of St. Croix and State of XVisconsin, have invented anew and Improved Weather-Strip; and I do hereby declare that To enable those skilled in the art to make' and use myinvention,l will proceed to describe its construction and operation with reference to the drawings. p
A represents a door,which swings on hinges a in the frame B in the ordinary manner. To the lower edge of this door a strip, b, is per manently attached by means of screws c, orin any other desirable manner, and this strip is bent so that its lower portion forms an angle of about twenty-two degrees (more or less) with the inside face of the door, as clearly shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
C is a plate, which is placed on the sill D, being connected to the saine by means of hooks or staples d, so that it can swing up and down freely. From this plate an arm or tappet, e,
extends upward, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, so that when the door is being closed theedge of the stationary strip b catches under thetappet. When the door is open, the plate C lies down upon the sill and the tappet e extends up, as clearly shown in Fig. 3, and in closing the door the edge of the strip b catches under the tappet e, as shown in the saine gure, and by the time the door is completely closed the plate C is raised or turned up to the position shown in Fig. 2 by the action of the strip I; on the tappet e. In this position the plate C underlaps the edge of the strip b, and the crevice between the door and the sill is perfectly closed.
This weather-strip is very simple and sure in its action, and it can conveniently be attached to doors of any shape or description, and the plate G can easily be adapted to old worn-ont sills by making its edge rounding or curved, according to the surface of the sill.
I do not claim, broadly, the use of hinged plates or tappets in the construction of weather-strips; but,
Having thus fully described my invention, What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent. is-
The combination of the tappet e with the hinged plate O and strip b, in the manner herein shown and described.
JAMES O. CLAY.
