WINDOW-SCREEN.
Patented Oct. 30, 1906.
Application filed April 12, 1906. Serial ND- 311,298.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EDWIN A. REI'rz, a citizen of the United States, residing at Butler, in the county of Butler and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements ,in Window-Screens; and I do declare the following to he 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 The object of the invention is to provide a window-screen adapted to be adjusted laterally to fit difierent widths of windows and having means whereby the parts of the screen may be held or locked in their adjusted positions.
A further object is to provide means whereby said screen may be slidably engaged with the window-frame.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination, and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
ably" supporting the screen in the window.
Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view of a portion of the groove member of the screen-guide, and Fig. 5 is a similar view of a portion of the tonguemember of the guide which is adapted to be secured to the windowframe.
l Referring more particularly to the drawings, 1 denotes the screen, which is here shown as formed of two laterally-adjustable sections'2, the upper and lower rails of which are recessed at their meeting ends to form overlapping projections 3 ,which slide upon a each other to permit the sections of the screen to be adjusted to fit various widths of win- The netting 4 or covering of the screen-frame is extended from the full width of each section, so that when the recessed ins ner ends of the frame are engaged the inner edges of said netting willoverlap, as shown. The outer edges of the netting 4 are preferably secured to the frame of the screen by strips 5, which are tacked or otherwise secured to the frame.
Arranged on one side of the upper and lower rails of the screen-frame, over the overlapping recessed inner ends of the sections thereof, are upper and lower locking-plates 6. These plates are provided near each end with longitudinally-disposed slots 7,through which and into the adjacent ends of the rails or bars are adapted to be screwed clamping-screws 8, by means of which the plates 6 are clamped into rigid engagement with the rails or bars of the frame, thereby holding the screen-sections in their adjusted positions.
In order that the screen may be held in sliding engagement with the window-frame,
ing here shown and are preferably in the form' of sheet-metal strips or sections 9 and 10. The strip or section 9 is bent longitudinally to form a groove 12 and laterally-projecting attaching-flanges 13, by means of which said strip or section may be tacked or otherwise secured to the outer edges of the vertical rails or bars of the screen, as shown. The strip or section 10 is bent longitudinally to form a tongue 14 and laterally-projecting attaching-flanges 15, whereby said section or strip 10 is tacked or otherwise secured to the side of the window casing or frame either at the outside or inside of the window-sash, as desired. When the grooved strip or sections on the screen are engaged with the tongue strips or sections on the window-frame, the screen will be held in sliding engagement with said frame, and by reason of the frictional contact of the tongue-and-grooved sections or strips of the guide said screen may be supported at any desired position.
A screen constructed and arranged as herein shown and described maybe readily fitted to any width of window, and when the guide-strips on said screen are engaged with the strips on the window-frame the same will be adj ustably held in position.
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 ex lanation.
Various changes in the orm, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, anddesire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A window-screen formed in laterally-adjustable sections, the frames of said sections having recessed, overlapping inner ends, overlapping sections of netting secured to said frame sections, longitudinally-slotted locking-plates arranged over the overlapping ends of the frame-sections, clamping-screws arranged in the slots of said locking-plates to lock said sections in their laterally-adjusted positions, and means to hold said sections in sliding engagement with the sides of the window-frame, said means comprising sheet-metal guidestrips, one of which 1s bent to form; a longitudinally-grooved strip or section secured to the screen, and the other of which is bent to form a tongue strip or secmy hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
