To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Jaoon KRAUSS, a resident of Lexin ton, in the county of Fa ette andState of lientucky, have invente certam new and useful'lmprovements in Storm- Curtains for Vehicles; and I dohereby de- -clare the following to be a full, clear, and. ex-
act description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it aplo pertains to make and use the same.
1 My invention relates to improvements in storm-curtains for vehicles, the object of the invention being to provide a storm-curtain especially adapted for use upon what is I 5 known in the trade as a standing top, said storm-curtain being supported on a springroller'located at the upper end of the posts and adapted to be drawn down at pleasure to protect the occupants.
3o The invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations and arrangements of arts, as will be more fully hereinafter described, and pointed out'in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is "a perspective view illustrating my improvements, and Figs. 2, 3, and 4 are views of details of construction.
supported on fixed posts or uprights 3, located at the usual bsitions in .vehicles of this character t e forward pair of posts ator near the forward edge of the vehicleseat. This style of top to which 111 inven- 5 'ti on is applied is what is known in t e trade asla' .wood-post standing top or iron-post any prepresents my improved storm-curtain, which made of any a proved waterproof 4o flexible" material, secure at its upper end to a spring-reller -5.,- mounted between the forwardfposts 3 at their upper ends, which permits the curtain when not desired for use to be rolled up on the roller 5 out of the way and not detract from the general appearance of the vehicle. Through the seamed lower end of curtain 4 a horizontal red 6 is located and is longer than the curtain is wide, so that its ends will project across the front posts 3 and prevent the curtain being blown ack in the face of a wind, and suitable notches or hooks 7 may be provided on the posts 3 to receive the rod 6 1 represents a vehicle-body having a top 2,-
and secure the curtain at its lowest adjustment. j
The curtain 4 is provided with a large transparent window 7, of celluloid or other flexible material, so as not to interfere with the VlSlOn of the occupants, yet fully protect them from the weather, and, as shown, this curtain must stop some distance above the vehicle-seat toavoid the legs of the occupants. Thus to fully protect them from the weather an additional storm-a ron or cover 8 must be rovided and may e secured in any desire manner to close the space left open by the storm-curtain 4.
slilght changes might be made in the general orm and arrangement of the parts describedwithout departingfrom myinvention, 7o
and hence I do not restrict myself to the precise details set forth, but consider myself at liberty to make such slight changes andalterations" as fairly fall within the spirit and sage of m invention. aving ully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is l a 1. The combination with a vehicle-top having vertical side posts, of a curtain-roller mounted between said posts, a curtain having a flexible window, said curtain and win-'- dow adapted to wind on said roller, and means carried b the lower edge of the curtain and adapte to bear against the vertical I side posts of the vehicle to prevent the curtain from blowing against the riderr 2. The combination with a vehicle-top having vertical side posts, of a curtain-roller mLOunted-irr the upper ortion of the vehicle-'- top, a curtain to win on said roller, and. a
rodin the bottom of the curtain, the ends'of said rod projectin beyond the side edges of the curtain and a aptedto bear against the outer faces of the vertical side osts.
3. The combination with a ve 'cle-top having vertical side posts, of a roller mounted between the 11 per portions of said posts, a eurtain wound on said roller, a rod at the lower end of the roller, the ends of said rod rejecting beyond the edges of the curtain to Bear against the outer faces of the vertical posts of the carriage-top, and .fixed hooks to receive the projecting ends of the rod and hold the same locked to the side posts.
