No. 807,931. PATENTED DEC. 19, 1905.
0. HULL; DOOR CHECK.
APPLIOATION TILED JUNE 10, 1905.
OSCAR HULL, OF KAYLOR, PENNSYLVANIA.
DOOR-CHECK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 19, 1905.
Application filed June 10, 1905. Serial No. 264,720.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, OSCAR HULL, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Kaylor, in the county of Armstrong and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Door-Checks, of which the following is a specification, reference being bad therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to certain new and useful door-checks, particularly for screendoors.
The invention has for its object the provision of novel means for preventing doors of the above type from creating a noise when they are slammed or suddenly closed. To this end I have devised a novel attachment for screen-doors which can be easily and quickly attached to a door, whereby when the door closes it will relieve the sudden jar and noise occasioned by the screen-door contacting with a door-frame.
A further object of this invention is to provide an attachment for screen-doors of the above type which will be extremely simple in construction, strong and durable, comparatively inexpensive to manufacture, and highly efficient for the purposes for which it is used.
The invention consists in the novel construction, combination, and arrangement of parts, which will be hereinafter more fully described and then specifically pointed out in the claim, and, referring to the drawings accompanying this application, like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout both views, in which Figure l is a perspective view of a door-" frame and screen-door, illustrating my improved attachment applied to said door; and Fig. 2 is a detail sectional view of the attachment.
In the accompanying drawings I have illustrated a doorway or frame 1, to which is hinged a conventional form of screen-door 2. My invention resides in providing the outer edge of the door with a strip of resilient material 3, such as rubber or felt. The strip of material is preferably arranged along the vertical outer edge of the door, and said strip is retained upon the door by a metallic strip 4, which is preferably embedded in the resilient material. The ends of the metallic strip 4 are bent rearwardly, as indicated at 5, and pierced, as indicated at 6, whereby suitable nails or screws 7 may be employed for securing the ends of the metallic stripto the inner side of the screen-door.
The resilient strip of material 3 is adapted to extend a short distance beyond the outer edge of the door, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 2 of the drawings. Consequently when the screen-door closes the strip of resilient material will engage the doorway I and prevent the frame of the screen-door from striking the door-frame 1 and causing a noise, such as is incurred by the slamming of the door or the sudden or forcible closing of the same.
While I have herein described my improved attachment for doors as being applied to the vertical edge of the door, it is obvious that I may place the same upon the top of the door or upon the bottom thereof, in both instances it serving the same purpose.
It will be noted that various changes may be made in the details of construction without departing from the general spirit and scope of the invention.
What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination with a screen-door, of a buffer comprising an elongated strip of yielding material engaging the inner face of the outer stile of said door and extending the length thereof, a metallic strip extending through said yielding strip from end to end thereof and having its ends bent or offset to bring one face of said ends in the same plane as the inner face of the yielding strip, and means for securing said bent ends to the doorframe, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
OSCAR HULL. Witnesses:
W. H. EYNoN, J. A. MURRAY.
