VENTlLATlNG-AWNING'.
Speccaton of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 5, 1905.
Application filed April Z6, 1904. Serial No. 204,998.
Beit known that l, SAMUEL H uns ERT Veoliunns, a citizen of the United States, residing at Scranton, in the county of Lack awanna and State ot' Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and uset'ul Improvements in Ventilating'- Awning's, ot' which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to Ventilating-awnings, the construction and advantages ot' which will be plain from the following spccitication, taken in connection with the accompanying' drawings, in which- Figure l is a plan view ot' the metal plates Vfrom which the end portions and an intermediate portion ot' the awning-hood are constructed. Fig'. 2 is a perspective view of a complete awning having' a hood made ot' plates similar to those shown in Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a central vertical section through the awning' shown in Fig'. Q. Fig. '-l isasimilar View showing the awningfolded. Fig. 5 is a perspective view, partly broken away, showing a hood and part otl an awning, the upper rod for sustaining the awning being' secured in the ends ot' the hood. Fig. 6 is a central vertical section tln'oug'h the awning shown in Fig. 5, showing the awning `folded. Fig'. T is a perspective viewof one end of an awning' and hood, showing the upper and lower sustaining-rods supported in the ends ot' the hood; and Fig. S is a central sectional view showing' the awning ot' Fig. 7 folded.
Referring' to Figs. l to i, inclusive, of the drawings, l and L indicate plates ot' sheet metal or other suitable material, which form the end pieces of the awning-hood A, and c indicates a metal plate forming an intermediate portion ot' the hood. The plates c and are similar in construction, each having' a part l, which forms a part ot' the roo'f of the hood and a taperingl or pointed end portion 9., which is bent at right angles to the part l in forming' the hood and forms a triangular bracket or end piece for the hood, as shown in Fig'. Q. The margins ot' these end pieces are bent at right ang'les to the end or bracket portions and are perforated, as shown, for attachment to the window-casing C. The upper and lower edges or marg'inssiotl the rootI portions l are rolled upwardly into tubular forni, as shown in Fig. '2, and the corresponding portions oi the intermediate plate c are also rolled into tubular form. The tubular portions l and 5 are ot' dii'erent diameters, so that the tubular portions ot' the plate c may telescope with the corresponding portions of the plates f/ and and the edges ot the plate c may overlap the adjacent edges ot' the rootI portions l of the plates a and as shown in Fig. 'lhe hood may be made ot' any desired length to lit windows of various sizes by inserting several intermediate plates having' tubular portions or beads ot` alternately large and small diameters or a single plate of the required length, and the plates may be curved instead et' straight along their edges to `form a curved hood tor bay-windows. Instead of extending the front and sides ot' the awning' B, which is made ot' canvas or other cloth fabric, up to the top of a window,
as is customary, the peak of the awning is` cut away and the front ot' the awning is suspcnded from a rod .6, which is carried by links T, having their upper ends journaled upon a rod or bar 8, which, as shown in Fig'. 2, extends through the tubular beads or llang'es '-.t and 5 at the top of the hood. ln order to permit the links T to extend downwardly into the hood and swing' Vfreely therein, the plates a, 7), and care provided with slots 9, extending through their upper beads or flanges and permitting' the upper ends otl the links to pass through the hood. In order to secure the several sections to the top of the window-casing' and prevent sagging or lateral movement of the sections, the latter are attached to the top of the window-casing, preferably by tongues 10, which are formed adjacent to the slots 9 and are bent downwardly at the proper angle to tit llat against the top ot' the casing, to which they are secured. i The links T may swing from the position shown in Fig. 3 to that shown in Fig. i. Then the awning is down, as shown in Fig'. 3, the lower end ot' the awning being' held away from the window by the metal bail or frame ll, which is commonly used in connection with awnings and which is connected by a hinge-joint l2 to the window-casing, the links 7 and the front l2" of the awning will be held in a substantially straight line by the weight of the bail ll, the top ot' the awning' and the bar (5 to which it is connected being held away from the window and beneath the hood, as shown in Fig. 3. As indicated by the arrows in said ligure, the air may circulate freely upward through the awning and thence outward bcneath the hood, and when the upper sash ot' the window is lowered the air may flow lrom the room of the house outward or into the room between the hood and the top of the IOO IIO
awning. The awning and hood thus serve the purpose of shading the window and yet permit free ventilation. /Vith the ordinary awning, having its front and sides attached to the top of the window-casing, heat accumulates under` the peak of the awning, and when the Lipper sash of the window is lowered the hot air is carried into the room. A rope 13 is connected to the front and center of the bail 11 and passes through an eye or pulley 14 onthe center of the rod 6 and thence to a suitable fastening device 15 on the window-casing. When the rope 13 is pulled to raise the awning, the bail ll'swings upward under the hood and the links 7 swing backward, as shown in Fig. 4, the entire awning being thus brought under the hood and protected from the weather. y
Instead of arranging the upper rod 8 within the beaded portions of the hood, as shown in Fig. 2, this rod may be secured within openings 16, formed near the upper apex of the triangular end pieces 2, as shown in Fig. 5, and it may be supported` at intermediate 'portions of its length by screw-eyes 17, secured in the top of the window-casing, as illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6. W'ith this construction it is unnecessary to provide slots 9 in the plates formed in the hood, as shown in Fig. 2. The plates may also be secured to the window-casingby metal strips 10a, attached to the p lates, instead of the tongues 10, as in Figs. 1 to 4, inclusive, or by any other suitable means. In Fig. 5 three intermediate plates c', 02, and c3 are shown between the end plates of the hood. In Figs. 5 and 6 the links 7 are freely suspended from the rod 8, and when the awning is raised the rods swing backward, as shown in Fig. 6.
In Figs. 7and 8 the rod 8 is secured within the openings 16, and the rod 6, to which the upper part of the awning is connected, is also secured within openings 18, formed in the ends of the hood and at sufficient distance below the roof of the hood to permit the air to circulate between the awning and the hood. In this view the links 7a serve to connect the stationary rods 8 and 6EL and to support and stilen the latter. With this construction when the awning is drawn up, as will be apparent from an inspection of Fig. 8, the folded front of the awning will be held at some distance from the window, thus permitting a very free circulation of air between the awning and the window.
The links 7 may be connected at their lower ends directly to the awning in any suitable manner-as by sewing, cords, hooks, &c.'-i desired, and their upper. ends may be supported in the manner shown or otherwise connected to suitable attachments on the window- Y casing or the interior of the hood.
The bead projecting upwardly along the lower edge of the awning not only serves the purpose of affording a convenient means of i ing and set the latter on tire.
fitting the sections together, but also serves as a stop or gutter to catch lighted matches, cigar stumps, and ashes, &c., which may be thrown or knocked from an upper window and which might otherwise fall upon the awn- The bead also serves to prevent rain-water from dripping upon the awning. With unprotected awnings the drip from a window-casing in the course of time leaves a dark line at the top of the awning, which mars its appearance, and the awning ordinarily becomes weaker and rots along this line. The upwardly-projecting bead on the lower edge of the awning prevents this water-mark.
Having described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
a metal awning-hood extending over the top of the awning and having a rof portion slanting downwardly and away from the windowcasing when insposition, said roof portion having an upwardly-turned part extending along its lower end and projecting above the plane of the roof, forming a gutter, said gutter having open ends 'to permit rain-water to liow freely from the ends of the roof portion.
