ITHOMAS MEDFORD, OF HUNTINGTON, WEST VIRGINIA.
FLY-PAPER HOLDER FOR WINDOWS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of' Letters Patent N o. 418,803, dated January?, 1890.
l Application filed September 28, 1889. Serial No. 325,368. (No model.) l
T all whom it may concern Be it known that I, THOMAS MEDFQRD, a
i citizen of the United States, residing at Huntington in the county of Cabell and State of West Virginia, have invented certain new and usefulImprovements in Fly-Paper Hold- 'Y this specification, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
This invention. relates to certain new and useful improvements in devices for holding fly-paper or adhesive substances for catching and killing flies, which device is designed to be applied to a Windowf in such a manner as to catch the flies whether they are behind or in front of the device.
The -novelty resides in the peculiarities of construction and the combinations, arrangement, and adaptation of parts, all as more fully hereinafter described, shown in the drawings, and then particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which, with the letters of reference marked thereon,form a part of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 is a cross-sectionv through a window frame and sash providedwith my improvements, looking down. Fig. 2 is a vertical section through the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective detail of a portion of the holder detached. Fig. 4 is a vertical cross-section through a holder of slightly-modified form, showing a different manner of attaching the rear screen.
In the accompanying drawings,A designates portions of a window-frame, and B the sash,
C designates my holder, which is formed of suitable sheet metal bent into the shape shown-that is, substantially a V shape in vertical cross-section, as seen in Figs. 2 and 4. The front side b of this holder is inclined at an angle` of about forty-five degrees, as shown, and preferably has its upper edge rolled or seamed to give it a finished appearance. v Near the rearedge there is provided an upward extension c, and between this and ,the holder, as shown.
the front side is designed to be placed sticky ily-paper of any preferred kind, being fitted within the space and held there, so that it may be readily removed when it has completed its usefulness.
This holder is designed to be .supported with its rear side in proximity to the sash, but not in contact therewith. In orderl to keep the holder a regulated distance from the glass, I provide the lips or arms d, which, as shown in Fig. 3, are formedintegral with the the holder and project slightly beyond the rear side thereof. I
The holder may be formedof reticulated material, asV shown in Fig. 3, it' desired to give it a less cumbersome appearance. s
In practice I may make the holders of the exact size to tit the Window or make them in sections of different lengths, s o that they may be readily fitted to diierent-sized windows.
The holder may be supported in itsl position in any suitable manner. In the drawings I have shown the preferred form. Itconsists of wires or cords G, stretched across the window and attached at their ends to suitable eyes f, secured to the frame and sash, as p The holder or shown more clearly in Fig. l. holders rest upon these Wires or cords, as shown. j
It is deem-ed important that the device be held a slight distance from the glass, so as to H, which is removable from the holder and may be used in connection with it or not, as the purchaser may prefer. This screen consists of a piece of wire-gauze or other suitable 'material of proper length and width, and this is held in an upright position at the rear of In Figs. l, 2, and 3 this screen'is shown as held in position by being fitted in a groove Zo in the rear portion of the holder, the said groove being formed'between the upward extension c andthe upturned edge m ot' the holder.
In Fig. 4 I have shown a holder similar to that above described in all its essential features; but instead of having the lips or arms (l the said holder is designed to be held at the proper distance from the glass by means of the lips dupon the under side of the bottom of the holder, the said lips being designed to extend upon opposite sides of the wires or cords G and prevent movement of the holder. They, however, serve the same purpose, and for some reasons, perhaps, are better, as they are not so readily seen from the street.
In Fig. 4 the screen is attached differently. In this figure the groove and upturned edge of the holder are dispensed with, the screen being held in place by slitting the same and passing portions thereof alternately upon opposite sides of the upward extension c of the holder.
l. An improved fly-paper holder formed of sheet metal bent into a substantially' V shape with a vertical rear extension and lips on the holder for holding the same away from the glass, substantial] y as described.
2. An improved fly-paper holder formed of sheet metal formed into substantially V shape, asshown, and provided at the rear side with for the purpose specified.
3. An improved fly-paper holder formed of sheet metal with a longitudinal groove at its rear side and with lateral lips, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
t. The combination, Withafiy-paper holder formed of sheet-metal bent into a substantially V shape, and provided with means, as the lips d, for keeping it away from the glass, of a screen detachable from the said holder, substantiallyas and for the purpose specified.
5. The combination, with a holder for flypaper, formed of sheet metal, provided at its rear side with a longitudinal groove and with lateral lips, of a screen removably retained in said groove, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence ot two witnesses.
THOMAS MEDFORD.
