Description

PATENTED MAY 19, 1908.
C. E. WADE. WEATHER STRIP.
APPLICATION FILED AUG 21 1907 w x Z CHARLES E. WADE, OF MASONVILLE, NEW YORK.
WEATHER-STRIP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 19, 1908.
Application filed August 21, 1907. Serial No. 389,522.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, CHARLES E. lane, a citizen of the United States, residing at Masonville, in the county of Delaware and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Feather-Strip, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has relation to weather strips and it consists in the novel construction and arrangement of its parts as hereinafter shown and described.
The object of the invention is to provide a weather strip of simple and cheap construction adapted to be applied to a door or other hinged object and which is of such construction that it may be applied to such an object irrespective of the edge at which it is hinged, that is to say, whether the object is hinged at its right or left side.
The strip consists primarily of a stop adapted to be applied to either side of the door frame and a plate of peculiar configuration which is hinged to the door and a hood which is located over the said plate. The said plate is spring actuated whereby it is normally held in engagement with the hood and a depressor rod is mounted upon the plate and is adapted to engage the stop for the purpose of forcing the plate into contact with the door sill when the door is closed. The parts having sufiicient resiliency to permit the edge of the plate to come in close contact with the sill.
In the accompanying drawing :Figure 1. is a perspective view of the lower portion of a door with the weather strip applied thereto showing parts in section. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the weather strip applied to a door; and Fig. 3 is a detailed sectional view of a portion of the strip.
The strip consists of the plate 1 which is hinged to the plate 1 attached to the side of the door 2 and which is substantially V- shaped in transverse section, one side of the plate 1 is provided with the lip 3 while the other side is provided at its edge with a flange 4. The hood 6 is attached to the door 2 over the plate 1 and is'provided at its lower edge with a flange 7 against which the flange 4 is adapted to operate. The lip 3 is provided with a packing, as at 8, attached thereto, as shown in Fig. 3. Said packing may be felt, rubber or other similar suitable material. The spring 9 is attached at one end to the plate 1 and the opposite end of the said spring is attached to the plate 1. The said spring is under tension with a tendency to hold the lower edge of the plate elevated with relation to the door sill. The outer face of the plate 1 is provided with the clips or bearings 10 in which is journaled a depressor rod 11 of peculiar configuration. Said rod is provided at its middle with a later ally disposed bow 1.2 and at its ends with the laterally disposed loops 1.3. The bearings 10 are located within the said loops. The stop 14 is attached to the side of the door frame in the path of one 01 the loops 13. The said step may be applied to either side of the door frame. The said stop also provided with elongated slots 16 and the screws 17 pass through the said slots and form a securing means for the said step. By means of the elongated slots and the securing screws the said step may be adequately adjusted upon the side of the door frame for proper engagement with the loop located in its path. Inasmuch as the depressor rod 11 is provided at each end with a loop and the loops are ol' similar configuration the weather strip may be applied to a door which is hinged at either of its vertical sides as either one of the loops may serve to engage the stop 16. Inasmuch as the parts oi" the weather strip are made of metal they possess a certain amount of flexibility and the lateral extensions of the depressor rod are su'llicient to cause the plate 1 to engage the sill of the door along its entire length even should the said sill be worn and of irregular surface. hen the lower edge of the plate 1. is in engagement with the sill the upper edge oi the said plate is in engagement with the flange 6 of the hood 7 whereby the crack at the lower edge of the door is e'l'l'ectually closed.
Having described my invention what 1 claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. A weather strip comprising a resilient swinging member, a depressor rod lying thereon at one side of the pivot and extending longitudinally thereof and having a portion projecting to the edge of the swinging member for engagement with a stop.
2. A weather strip comprising a resilient swinging member a depressor rod lying thereon to one side of the pivot and extend.- my own, I have hereto affixed my signature ing lOIlgitLhdiIlflllY thegeof, said depressor {10d in the presence of two Witnesses. having en ortions or engagement Wit a stop and 8,1 1 intermediate laterally bowed CHARLES WADE 5 portion lying between the edges of the said Witnesses:
