SHUTTER BOWER.

ARNOLD A. WHEELOGK, OF WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
SHUTTER-=BOWER.
EPECIPICATIOIN forming part of Letters Patent No. 378,346, dated February 21, 1888.
Serial No. 239,436. (No model.)
To ctZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ARNOLD A. WHEELooK, a citizen of the United States,residing at Washington, in the District of Columbia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shutter-Bowers, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
My invention relates to improvements in shuttenbowers.
The object of my invention is to provide a cheap and reliable device for holding windowshutters at any desired angle; and it consists in the combination of devices described herein and pointed out in the claim.
In the drawing I have shown my device as applied to the shutters of a window.
A indicates the shutter-bower, which may be made of a single piece of wire or of abifurcated strip of spring-steel, or of any other suit able materi al; but I prefer to use a good article of steel wire, which is bent in the center to form a loop, a. The two portions of the wire are then twisted together and another loop, b, formed. Any desired number of loops may be formed in this way, the loops being designed to receive a screw-eye, 13, secured to the window-sill F. The outer end of the bower terminates in two arms or parts, Cand D, which are secured to hooks or rings secured to the shutters E in any suitable manner, so that they can be readily attached or detached from the shutters.
The arms 0 and D are elastic, and as the device is pushed out the arms spread and hold the shutters at any desired position.
Instead of a wire, I may use a bar or strap of steel having a number of openings to receive the screw-eye or other suitable fastening device,while the outer end of the strap or bar is T loop, thus forming a device for holding the k shutters in an open position.
It will be noticed that the device is very simple in its parts, can be readily attached to any window, and furnished at a cheap price. i I am aware that a shutter-holder has before been used consisting of a single piece of wire bent to form a coil, with two ends or arms crossing each other terminating in hooks to engage rings in the window, and such construction I do not claim; but,
Having thus described myinvention, whatI claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
A shutter-bower consisting of a wire or wires bent to form a shank with a series of loops or eyes therein for attaching the same adjustably In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
