SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 733,829, dated July 14, 1903.
Application filed April 25,1903.
To all whom it may concern: Y
Be it known that I, FOWLER S. FORD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lower Cabot, in the county of Washington and State of Vermont, have invented new and useful Improvements in Greenhouses, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in greenhouses; and it relates more especially to sashes of novel construction adapted to be used for the roof of a greenhouse.
The object of the invention is to so construct the sashes that they may be detachably secured to and readily removed from a greenhouse.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists in providing two sets of sashes of substantially the same proportions. "Each sash of one of these sets has latorally-extending flanges which are adapted to project over the sides of the sashes of the other set, and when these sashes are arranged alternately upon a greenhouse a substantially solid and waterproof roof is obtained.
The invention also consists in the further novel construction and combination of parts hereinafter more fully described and claimed, andillustratedin the accompanying drawings, showing the preferred form of myinvention, and in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a greenhouse having my improved roof-sashes in position thereon. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section therethrough. Fig. 3 is a vertical transverse section, and Figs. 4 and 5 are detail views of the two forms of sashes employed.
Referring to the figures by numerals of reference, 1 is a greenhouse of any suitable construction having beams 2, 3, and a extending transversely thereof at the front, center, and back, respectively. A weather-board 5 is arranged upon the rear end of the greenhouse and extends over the upper beam 4. The upper ends of sashes are adapted to be inserted between this beam 4.- and the weatherboard. Two sets of sashes are employed in forming my improved roof. One set is composed of rectangular frames 6, having lights of glass 7 therein, as ordinarily, and provided with laterally-extending flanges 8 upon the Serial No. 154,340. (No model.)
to rest in rear of the beam 3 when the sashis in position upon the greenhouse. The sashes of the second'set employed are each formed of a rectangular frame 10, having a light of glass 11 interposed between side flanges 12. These side flanges are preferably of the same size as the sides of the frames 6, and it is therefore obvious that when the frames are arranged alternately upon the greenhouse the flanges 8 of frame 6 will extend over the adjoining side flanges 12 of the frames 10. In this manner a substantially solid roof is obtained. The frames 10 are provided with transversely-extending strips 13 upon their under surfaces,which are adapted to rest in rear of the cross-beam 3, and these strips, as well as the strips 9, serve to hold these sashes in position with their upper ends between the beam at and the weatherboard 5. It will of course be understood that opaque material may be substituted for the lights of glass. It will be seen that by providing a roof constructed of sashes such as herein described one or more of said sashes can be readily taken ofl without necessitating the removal of bolts, screws, nails, or similar securing means.
In the foregoingdescription I have shown the preferred form of my invention; but I do not limit myself thereto, as I am aware that modifications maybe made therein without departing from the'spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof, and I therefore reserve the right to make such changes as fairly fall within the scope of my invention.
Having thus described the invention,what is claimed as new is- 1. In a greenhouse, the combination with cross-beams; of sashes mounted thereon, and flanges upon the alternate sashes overlapping the adjoining edges of the other sashes.
2. In a greenhouse, the combination with cross-beams, and a weather-board adjacent to one of said beams; of sashes supported upon the beams and projecting under the weatherboard, and laterally-extending flanges upon 4. In a greenhouse, the combination with cross-beams, and a Weather-strip adjacent to one of said beams; of sashes detachably :5
mounted upon the cross-beams and extending under the Weather-board.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
FOWLER S. FORD.
