WINDOW-SCREEN..
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 17, 1905.
Application filed December 19, 1904. Serial No. 237,567.
10 LM w/wm, t may concern:
Be it known that I, CLARENCE W. ALLEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Port Byron, in the State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Window-Screens; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to improvements in window-screens.
The object of the invention is to provide a window-screen which is brought into and out of position by the opening and closing of the window, so that when the window is closed the screen is out of the way.
A further object is to provide a windowscreen which will be simple, strong, durable, and inexpensive in construction, easily applied to a window, and which will take up but little room when stored or packed for shipping.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists ofcertain novel features of construction, combination, and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front view of a window-frame, showing the screen applied thereto and in an operative position. Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse sectional view of the same, and Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the sash closed and the screen' rolled up.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, l denotes a window-frame, and 2 denotes a window-sash. In the lower end of the frame 1 is pivotally mounted a springroller 3, to which is connected one end of a strip of netting 4, on the edges of which are arranged flexible metallic binding-strips 5. These strips are of thin sheet-steel and are secured to the outer edges and outer surface only of the netting 4 by any suitable means, as by rivets. On the outer end of the strip of netting is secured a hook 6, by which the same is adapted to be connected to a bailshaped bar or rod 7. The bar or rod 7 is attached to the lower end of the sash 2, whereby when said sash is raised the screen-strip will be unwound from said roller 3 and carried upwardly by the sash, thus covering the opening.
Vhen the screen is unrolled by the raising of thev window, the spring in the roller 3 will be wound up, so that when said sash is lowered the roller will be caused to revolve in an opposite direction, thereby winding up said screen upon the same. The bound edges of the screen 4 lie in close proximity to the sides of the window-frame and slide between the stop-strips of the same, so that when the window is opened all insects will be prevented from entering through the same. When the sash is lowered, the spring will be automatically wound upon the roller and will be entirely out of the way and practically out of sight.
Should it be desired to dispense with the screen at any time, the upper end of the same maybe readily unhooked and disengaged from the lower end of the sash. Should it be desired to entirely remove the screen from the window-frame, the roller, with the screen wound thereon, may be quickly and easily disengaged and removed from the windowframe, and, owing to the compact form of the screen, very little room is required for storing the same. This compact form of the screen also facilitates the packing of the same for shipping.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction and operation of the invention will be readily understood without requiring a more extended explanation.
Various changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The herein-described window-screen, consisting of a spring-roller 3 revolubly mounted in the-lower portion of the window-frame, a flexible strip of netting attached to and adapted to be wound on said roller, a Vthin spring-steel binding-strip 5 secured to the side edge and outer surface of said strip of netting, a hook 6 secured to the free upper edge of said netting and extending from IOO edge to edge of said netting, and a bar 7 se- In testimony whereof I have hereunto set cured to the lower edge of the window-sash my hand in presence of tWo subscribing Wit- With Which said hook is engaged. for attaohnesses.
ing said strip of netting detaohably to said CLARENCE W. ALLEN. 5 sash, said bar 7 extending from one side of Witnesses:
the sash to the other to prevent diagonal EDWARD M. ROGERS,
strains', substantially as described. LAMONT L. LEFFINGWELL.
