HENRY J. HAUSER, OF ROCHESTER, NEW YORK.
WINDOW-SCREEN.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 19, 1907.
Application filed October 4, 1906. Serial No. 337,448.
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HENRY J. HAUSER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in VVindow- Screens; and I do hereby 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.
My invention relates to an improvement in window-screens; and the object of m invention is to produce a screen which wi 1 be unrolled as the window is opened and to provide means whereby insects are prevented from entering a house when the w1n-' dow is open, either above or below the screens or between the parts of the window.
A further object is to provide a screen which may be adjusted to any size ofwindow and which will automatically adjust itself'to the varying conditions of strain as the window is raised or lowered, the screens for tlus reason being made of two separate overlapping arts, said parts being mounted on a single ro ler.
With the objects stated in view my in- .vention consists in the construction and combinations of parts, ashereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front view of a wipdow e uipped with m device. Fig. 2 is a' fvertica section thereo Fig. 3 is a side-view of one of the rollers,' partly broken away, on which said screen is mounted. Fig. 4 is a bottom view of the same roller. ,Fig. 5 is a section of said roller on the line 5v 5 of Fig. 4. Fig. 6 is a section of the same roller on the line 6 6 of Fig. 4. Fig. 7 is a-bottom plan view of the device for closing the space between the two sashes of the window. Fig. 8 is a front view of the shutter for closingthe space around the screen as the latter is unrolled. Fig. 9 is a cross-section on the line 9 9 of Fig. 7. Fig. 10 is a cross-section on the line 10 10 of Fig. 8, and Fig. 11 is a perspective viewof one of the spring-clips for holding one of the halves of the screen.
a represents a window-frame, b the lower sash, and c the upper sash, thereof. To the upper part of the inside of the lower sash-are fastened the spring-clips (1, consisting ofa fiat metal plate provided with openings e tongue out from said plate and bent downwardly and provided with an aperture f. Each screen 9 is made of two parts, as shown in Fig. 1, both parts being wound on a single roller 71. "lhe screens are made of artistic construction and with finished edges. 'lhey maybe ornamented, if desired.
'1 he top of each screen is provided with a plate 2', to which the screen is fastened upon its entire upper edge, and this plate is provided with a central projecting pin 1', which is adapted to pass behind the spring-clip and be inserted in the aperture f. lhe'up er sash is similarly provided with a similar i arranged screen, except that it unrolls downward instead of upward,
Bythe construction mentioned, as the sash b is raised the two parts of the screen automatically adjust themselves to varying conditions of tension, always keeping a perfectly smooth even surface in contact with the window-frame. The screen of course might be built into the lower ,part of the window-frame; but the simpler construction is to have the roller mounted on pins is, screwed or nailed to the window-frame, thus affording a read means whereb the screens may be put up 111' houses alrea y built. As the screen unrolls, however, a space would be left underneath the screen, throu h which insects might enter the house, an to prevent this I provide in front of each screen and extending the width of thewindow a pivoted shutter Z, which is pressed by the spring m into contact with the screenmounted on the roller.
The roller, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, is ad-. justable, so that it may be fitted upon windows of different sizes. It is made in two parts, portions being cut away at right'angles on the ends of the two different parts, as
shown in Figs. 3 and 4.- These portions are similar in s ape, but oppositely arranged. One of them 1s rovided with a groove n and the other witli a tongue 0 fitti therein. The parts are held in their adjuste position by means of a screw p, fastened in one of the movable portions of the roller, the other portion being provided with a countersunk slot 9, the screw p being adapted to fit against the ledges in the bottom of said slot when it is screwed home. The roller is hollow for a portion of its length and provided on the inside'with a spring 1', which continually tends to roll the two arts of the screen u on the for the passage of nails or screws and a roller. In the ottom of the roller is cut a long slot 8 with an enlarged portion t, and the 1 pin, and spring-plates fastened to the sash other end of the slot terminates in a countersunk portion a. In assembling the arts the end of thespring 1" is put throug the opening t and then slipped along the slot 8 and the bent end thereof dropped into the countersunk portion u, thereby leavin the outside of the roller smooth and secure y holding the spring. The roller is also provided with a slot 12, extending across its whole length and running into the roller at an angle thereto. The end of the screen is placed in this slot, and then said ends are secured in position, by a metal cli '11), extending the whole length of the roller. In order that the shutterl may be fitted to windows of any size, it also is n'ade in two overlapping parts, these parts being held together by means of a hingelate m, which runs in a sot y of the parts 0 the shutter. When a window is open, flies or other insects often get in between the sashes, even if the openings below and above the sashes are closed. vI have provided s ecial means to prevent this. (Shown in igs. 2 and 7.) To the bottom of the up er sash c is secured a two-part shutter-ho der 2 by means of hinged clips 1. The shutter-holder z is made in two parts, so thatit may be fitted to windows ofv any size, and the hinges 1 run in slots in the arts of the shutter-holder z. This shutterholder is made, preferably, of spring metal, and the front part of it is bent down. At intervals parts 3 are struck up from the projecting portion of the shutter-holders, and pieces 0 stiif paper4 are inserted above the clips, which are then bent up. Any desired material may of course be used instead of pa er.
Having thus describe my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- 1. The combination with a window-sash,
' of a twoart screen mounted on a springcontrolle roller, each part if said screen heateaving a central outer e engaging said pin, said first named plates being free to move around said pins as centers substantially as described.
. 2. The combination of a window-sash,
spring-plates each having an aperture near its end, fastened to said sash, a spring-controlled roller, a two-part Screen wound u on said roller, the parts of said screen over ap 'sized windows, a two-part screen wound upon said roller, the parts of said screen overlap ing each other, a plate along the dge of each one of said 'screens and having a central pin projecting outwardly, and springlates fastened to the windowsash, each aving an aperture in its outer end adapted to fit over one of the pins in said plate, substantially as described. Y
4 The combination of a spring-roller pro vided with an inclined slot thereon, a twopart screen, one end of which is adapted to be laced-insaid inclined slot, means for fastemng the screen in said slot, a plate secured on the outer end of each part of the screen, each of said plates having a centrally-located pivot-pin, and s ring-plates secured to the.
' of two arts; one provided with a tongue, an
the ot er with a corresponding groove, so that the parts may be adjusted upon each other, one of said parts being also provided with a countersunkv slot, a screw passing through said slot and ada ted to hold said parts together, an incline groove running the whole length of said roller for the reception of one end of the screen, said roller being hollow for a portion of its length, a spring in said hollowrportion, and a slot through said roller having an enlargement at one end and a countersunk portion at the other, substantially as described.
6. The combination of. a spring-roller made in two parts, adjustable upon each other, a twoart screen secured to said roller the parts 0 said screen overlap ing each other, a plate secured to one end of each part of said screen, each plate being provided with a central pivot-pin, spring-plates fastened to the window-sash, each provided with an aperture near its outer end adapted to engage the pivot-pins on said plates, said firstnamed plates being free to turn on said pins and a spring-controlled two-part shutter adapted to close the space left by said screen as it unrolls, substantially as described.
7. The combination of a window-sash, shutter-supporting means pivoted to the bottom of said sash, a spring supported on said sash, and normally pressing saidshutter for ward, said shutter being provided with curved extending portions, and inclines mounted upon the other sash, so that said sashes may be sli ped past each other without catching sai shutter, substantially as described.
