GEORGE V. HANLON, OF MOUNTAINAIR, TERRITORY OF NEW MEXICO.
FRAME FOR,TE1\TTOPENINGS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented March 17, 1908.
Application filed May 3, 1907. Serial No. 371,640.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE V. HANLON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mountainair, in the county of Torrance and Territory of New Mexico, have invented new and useful Improvements in Frames for T ent-Openings, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to detachable frames for tent openings intended for use as a stove pipe, window, ventilator or similar support.
The invention has for one of its objects to provide a device of this character which can be quickly and readily applied to a canvas or other tent Without mutilating the fabric of the latter and one which is of comparatively simple and inexpensive construction and designed to form a substantial supporting frame for a stove pipe or the like.
A further object of the invention is to provide a supporting frame that is composed of an outside plate and a spaced inside plate having a hinged section so arranged that the frame can be placed in a slitted seam of the tent and form a complete closure around the slitted opening.
With these objects in view and others, as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention comprises the novel features of construction and arrangement of parts as will be more fully described hereinafter and set forth with particularity in the claims appended hereto.
In the accompanying drawing, which illustrates one of the embodiments of the invention, Figure 1 is a front view of the tent opening frame seen from a point outside the tent. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the frame showing the inside thereof. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the hinged section of the inside plate in open position. Fig. 4 is a central vertical section of the frame.
Similar reference characters are employed to designate similar parts through the views of the drawing.
Referring to the drawing, 1 designates a portion of a tent made of pieces of suitable material connected together by a seam 2 in the usual manner. The stove pipe or other supportin frame designated generally by 3, is disposed in the seam 2, a portion of the latter being ripped open so that the canvas of the tent can be spread apart for permitting the insertion of the frame 3.
The frame 3 comprises an outside plate 4 of any suitable shape and is provided with a central opening 5 for receiving a stove pipe, window, ventilator or the like, and spaced from the said plate is an inside plate composed of sections 6 and 7. The inside plate is somewhat smaller than the outside plate and is spaced apart from the latter by a spacer or separator 8 rigidly secured to the plate 4. The spacer S is preferably in the form of a diamond and serves to hold the edges of the tent opening spread apart. The section 7 is connected at its lower end by hinges 9 arranged in such a manner that the section 7 can swing inwardly to a horizontal position. The hinged section 7 is secured in place by a bolt 10 extending through the plate 4 at its upper end and through an opening in the plate 7 and on the bolt is a finger nut 11 whereby the parts can be clamped together by hand.
In order to apply the supporting clamp to a tent, one of the seams of the latter is ripped open a distance slightly less than the length of the inner plate of the frame. The frame 3 is then inserted in the opening thus formed, the edges of the opening being tucked into the space 12 between the outside plate and section 6. The hinged section 7 is swung open so that the edges of the opening in the tent can be adjusted around the spacer 8 at the upper half thereof. After this is done, the hinged section 7 is swung upwardly against the spacer 8 and secured in position by the bolt 10. The stove pipe can then be inserted in the openings of the inner and outer plates and the frame 3 thus forms a complete closure around the pipe and prevents the latter from burning the canvas of the tent.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, the advantages of the construction will be readily understood. The frame is of simple and substantial construction and can be readily applied to a tent without requiring mutilation of the latter. If it is desired to remove the frame and mount it in a different position, it is merely necessary to sew up the seam in which the frame was originally placed and rip open another seam to receive the frame.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is z 1. In a device of the class described, the combination of a tent or the like composed of strips of fabric connected together by seams, one of the seams being ripped for a portion of its length, with a frame inserted in the open securing the sections of the part of the seam, said frame comprising a plate having an opening and adapted to be disposed at the outsideof the tent, a second plate disposed at the inside of the tent and having an opening registering with that of the first plate and composed of a section rigidly secured to the first plate and another section detachably connected with the first plate, and means between the plates with which the edges of the opening in the seam engages for holding the edges of the fabric away from the said openings.
2. In a device of the class described, the combination of a pair of spaced plates having registering openings, one of the plates being smaller than the other and composed of hingedly connected sections, and means for smaller plate to the larger plate.
3. In a device of the class described, the combination of an outside plate having an opening, an inside plate having an opening registering with the first opening and composed of a fixed and a movable section,
hinges between the sections to permit the movable section to swing inwardly, a spacing member disposed between the plates and around the openings thereof, and means for securing the plates together.
4. In a device of the class described, the combination of a fabric body composed of members connected together by a seam, and a diamond shaped frame adapted to be placed in an opening of the body formed by ripping a portion of the seam thereof, said frame comprising an. outside plate, a parallel inside plate composed of hingedly connected parts, and a spacing member between the plates arranged to engage the edges of the opening of the body.
In testimony whereof I afliX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE V. HANLON.
