" THOMAS s. FELL-ows, oFwALNUT LAKE, MINNESOTA.
Letters Patent No. 80,538, dated August 4, 1868.
rurovsli WEATHER-suur.
ilge 'Segnale marit tu iin-these Eaters utsnt mit making part nf tigo same.
TO ALL WHOM IT MAYGONCERN:
Be itknownthat I, THOMAS S. FELLow'S,`of Walnut Lake, in Vthe county of Faribault, and State of Minnesota, have made certain Improvements in Weather-Strips and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact descriptionl of the same, reference being had to theac'companying drawings, and to the letters of reference `marked thereon, and makinga part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is-a sectional view of a door withmy weather-strip attached.
Figure 2 is a vplan view of a door with my heather-strip attached.
Figure 3 is a sectional view in detail.
Figure 4 is a face view of the metal plates that form the strip.
I am aware that many deviceshave been employed to attain the desideratum at which I aim, and that metal strips or plates also have been used for the purpose, but I am not aware that metal strips have ever been used where the spring-action, which'is actually necessary, hasdepended on and been supplied by the natural elas- The nature of my invention, therefore, consists in attaching to a metallicplate an angular or wedge-shaped piece of wood, which, when the door is closed,`entirely shuts olf the ingress of draught, or the egress of heat between'tbe door and its easement or frame. This plate is4v castor struck up with an acute-angular groove or recess, so arranged as to receive the projectinglip or ilange of the upper metal plate. This is all arranged-on a suitably-grooved wooden plate `-attached to the face 'of the door, and` should it be required to increase its power', the same can readily be done by inserting one or more wire fingers, having their bearings in the lower easement of the dolor, their free ends passing through a suitable aperture or opening in the lower plate, audits bearing at the angular turn 4o' the upper plate. Y
To enable others shilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation.
A is an ordinary door; B, the veasement 'of frame; C, themetal plate, which may be either'plain or grooved, with a struck-up lip, c. D is a metal plate attached to the wooden weather-strip E. This plate is also struelir up 'with an acute convex angular groove br recess, LZ', in which works the lip c. F is a metallic wire, which is inserted in the door, its free end restingag'ainst the angle ot" the lip c. G is a lip which restsdireetly on the face of the grooved plate, by means of Awhich the wire F can readily be operated.
Having thus fully described my invention, and the operation ofthe same, what Iclaim as new therein, and
desireto secure by Letters Patent of. the United States, iii-- I A' weather-strip, composed of the plates C D, when the former is previdedwth a lip,c, and the latter with an acute-angular groove or recess, du', and the same are so combined and arranged that they are operated by the natural elasticity of the metal, substantially as described and for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof,I'l1ave signed my name to this specication in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
