JACOB S. PETERSON, OF SPRINGDALE, OHIO.
Letters Patent No. 64,031, dated April 23, 1867.
IMPROVED WEATHER-STRIP.
@La Sagitta trimm tu in time htters talent mit making part nf the sume.
'.IO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, JACOB S. PETERSON, of Springdale, in the county of Hamilton, and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Weather-Strip; and I hereby declare the following to be a full,` clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification.'
My invention is an improvement in the class of weather-strips which close automatically by the act of shutting the door, and is so arranged as to combine the following advantages: The strip or ap and its operating vparte being all enclosed within the door, arefree from exposure to the weather, and though easily accessible for lrepair or inspection, are not liable to become clogged with dirt and trash, nor to catch or tear the clothes. The strip is self-operating by the mere act of closing the door. The spring and cam which operate the strip, also assist in opening the door on turning the latch.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a. door embodying my improvement, the door being set open.
Figure 2 shows the weather-strip and its operative mechanism detached.
Figure 3 is a vertical section of the lower portion of the door in its closed position.
A represents a door frame, and B a door of ordinary construction. C is the carpet-sill rebated, e, on its Aouter side to alford a. seat for the flap or strip. The jamb a, against which 'the door shuts, has-mortised flush within it ajournal box, cl, of-a roller or pulley, D, whose oi'lice will be presently explained. The strip orllap E has a cylindrical back, F, which closely hugs the mortise in the bottom of the door so as to keep out wind and rain, and which terminates in pivots G G"journalled in plates H I, which are let into and screwedfast to the vertical edges of the door. Hinged to an ear, J, on the outer side of the ilap E, and to a vibrating` cam, K, pvoted tothe upper part of the plate H, is a rod, L, provided with a spiral spring, M, whose upper end being fastened to the said rod, and whose lower end resting on a leg, N, restores and holds said rod and flap to their t upper positions, and the cam K to its protuberant position whenever the door is opened, (see figs. 1 and 2,) and serves to assist in opening the door the instant thatiit is unlatched. In `the act of closing the door, the cam K, striking the roller D, is forced into the door and depresses therod L and flap E, so as to press the latter snugly against the rebate c of the carpet-sill C, and thus effectually exclude all wind and rain. For the more effectual exclusionV of these elements, a strip or lining of India rubber may be applied alongthe faceeof therebate c. An inferior` modification `of my invention may have axed object of metal or other hard substance in lplace of the roller D. "n
I claim herein as new, and of my invention K The strip or Hap ET adapted to close against the rebate of the carpet-sill by the impact of the cam K, and roller D, and to be retracted by means of a spring, M, substantially as set forth.
In testimonyrof which invention I hereunto set my hand. x
