EMANUEL HIPIARD, OFVYOUNGSTOWN, OHIO.
VALLEY-GUTTER FOR G-REENHOUSES.
SPEGIFICATIGN forming part of Letters Patent No. 696,043, dated March 25, 1902.
Application filed April 6,1901. Serial No. 54,669. (No model .T0 all whom, t may concern:
Be it known that I, EMANUEL HIPPARD, a citizen of the United States, residingat Youngstown, in the county of Mahoning and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Valley-Gutters for Greenhouses; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the artto which it appertains to make and use the same. Y
My invention relates `to valley-gutters for greenhouses; and it consists of the novel` construction and combination of the various parts, as will be hereinafter described, and stated in the claims.
The principal object of the invention is to simplify and cheapen the cost of construction of this class of gutters without in any way impairing their durability and efficiency.
Another object of the invention is to effectu'ally provide for the disposal of the water falling upon the house and of the water of condensation.
Still another object of the invention is to construct the gutters so as to effect a saving of space and cause very little shade in the houses, thereby permitting benches to be placed directly below them.
These and other objects are attained by means of the structure illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in whichuFigure l is a perspective view of a section of a greenhouse-roof structure Without the glass, showing myy improved gutter V applied thereto; Fig. 2, a transverse'section.through the gutter and parts of the greenhouse structure to which it is attached, and"Fig. 3 is a modification showing the gutter applied to the eaves of a greenhouse.
In the views the numeral 1 indicates the sash-bars, which may be of any approved construction, and 2 the glass. The lower ends of the sash-bars Aproject beyond the lower row of panes of glass and have their upper corner edges slightly beveled, so as to form a miter-joi'nt between a portion of the ends of the bars and leave a rectangular opening between the other portion thereof l forthe passage of the water of condensation down anauxiliary or drip gutter 3. The gutter 3 is made of any suitable material, preferably metal, and is substantiallyV shape in cross-section. It is bolted to the under side of the extended ends of the sash-bars and is provided at intervals with socketed brackets et, in which the ends of the supportingpillars 5 are received. The sides of the sashbars are providedwith longitudinal grooves '6, which catch the water of condensation and convey it to the drip-gutter 3. v
The numeral 7 indicates the main gutter, which is preferably made of metal and approximately V shape in cross-section. The gutter is supported upon the extended ends of the sash-bars and is secured thereto, as shown., The panes of glass are secured in -the rabbeted upper edges of the sash-barsin the usual overlapped position, the lower panes being prevented from slipping by the up'per edges of the gutter 7 abutting against them, as shown.
Both the main and drip gutters when of unusuallength may be constructed of sections joined together in any suitable and Wellknown manner.
It will be noted that the ends of the sashbars do not come in contact with the gutters, and thus the accumulation and holding of moisture is obviated, thereby lesseniiig the chances of their decay.
Having thus fully described myinvention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,` isl. In greenhouses or similar structures, the combination with the sashfbars thereof, said sash-bars having their lower ends extended to said extended ends, and a. drip-gutter sethe under sides of the extended ends, below 1o cured to the under side of the extended ends, l the main gutter, and suitable gutter -supsubstantially as specified. ports, as set forth.
3. In agreenhouse or similar structure the b In testimony whereof I affix my signature combination with the sash-bars thereof, said in the presence of two Witnesses.
bars having longitudinal grooves in their EMANUEL HIPPARD. sides, and extended lower ends, of a main Vitnesses: gutter supported upon and secured to said l VOLNEY ROGERS,
