EAVES-TROUGE-I.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 9, 1909.
Application filed March 10, 1909. Serial No. 482,612.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE Hnnsnnn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Remington, in the county of Jasper andl State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Eaves-Troughs; 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 new and useful improvements in eaves troughs.
It has for its object primarily to prevent the choking or clogging of the down spout and to readily dispose of the foreign or eX- traneous-objects, which may fall in the eaves trough, as leaves and the like from trees overhanging the eaves trough or other obstructions carried off the roof by the rain into said eaves trough.
A further object is to provide means for interlocking the parts of the eave trough, whereby said parts can be readily separated and removed when desired.
The invention also has for its object to carry out said ends in a simple and inexpensive manner; also to provide for the ready and effective formation of the parts of the device, as well as the expeditious assembling of the same as when applied for use.
Said invention consists of certain instrumentalities or features substantially as hereinafter fully disclosed and defined by the claims.
In the accompanying drawings illustrating the preferred embodiment of my invention, Figure 1 is a perspective view thereof, parts being broken away showing the application of my invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the invention. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 4 is a detail plan view of the eave trough, showing a slightly modified means for locking the parts together. Fig. 5 is a side elevation thereof. Fig. 6 is a similar view of the opposite side of the trough. Fig. 7 is an elevation of the stationary portion of the cave trough, and, Fig. 8 is a similar view of the removable portion of the trough.
In carrying out my invention, I provide in connection with the ordinary form of eaves trough, a member of which is desig* nated by 1, an inclined eaves trough member 2 having a sleeved or nozzled outlet opening 3 connected with the usual down spout 4, said member 2 sloping toward said down spout, the purpose of which isobvious.
An additional trough member or section 5 has a horizontal bottom portion provided with numerous openings Q forming said member into a filter directly above the member 2, said member 5 having one end 7 eX- tending beyond the member 2, for disposing or carrying off foreign objects, as leaves, etc., which may be received, or accumulate therein by the water running olf the roof of a house, said arrangement thus preventing such accumulations from entering, as is readily apparent, the member 2, and then passing into the down spout. The members 2 and 5 are received at their inner ends by a socket 8 formed upon the member 1, thus constituting what I term a slip oint at that point, said socket being formed by suitably bending or recurving one end of said member with relation to itself as will be readily seen from F 2 as well as Fig. 3. By this construction the members 1 and 5, as apparent, may be readily held in place at their inner ends without other fastenings than simply the joint or socket formed upon the member 1.
In Figs. 4 to 8, inclusive, I have shown an interlocking mechanism for the members l and 5, which consists in cutting a triangular notch 9 in the upper edge of one end of the wall forming the socket 8, while the same edge of the member 5 is provided with a clip 10, which is formed by making a slanted incision in the edge of the member 5 and bending the part so separated, parallel with the trend of the member 5, said clip being adapted to enter the notch 9 and engage the vertical wall 11 thereof.
The opposite edges of the members 1 and 5 arc provided with beads or rolled portions 12 and 13, respectively, the bead 13 being slightly less in diameter than the bead 12, so that the end thereof may be readily introduced into the bead 12, the end of which bead is preferably disposed at an angle, as shown at 14, while the wall of the socket 8 terminates at a point below the bead 12, as shown at 15.
In connecting the sections 1 and 5 t'ogether, the end of the section 5 is introduced into the socket 8, the bead 12 resting on the end 15 of the socket 8, thus extending the clip l0 above the opposite end of the socket 8, so that when the member 5 is partially rotated in the socket S, the clip l0 Will pass into the notch 9 and engage the Wall l1, While the bead 13 will move into registration with the bead l2, when, by bringing the section 5 in direct alinement with the section l, the bead 13 will enter the bead l2, thus interlocking the two sections of the eave trough.
I claim l. A device of the character described, comprising an incline-bottomed member having at its lower end a nozzled outlet, a supcrposed member fixed to the aforesaid member and forming a filter delivering` into the first referred to member, the second referred to member extending beyond said incline-bottomed member, and an additional eaves trough member, having a pocket upon its outer surface, said pocket being notched at one of its upper ends and said superposed eaves trough member having an overlying tapered clip adapted to be received by said notch and to engage the perpendicular wall thereof, said pocket being adapted to receive one end of said superposed eaves trough member.
2. A device of the character described, comprising eaves trough members, one of said members having a nozzled outlet and its bottom formed upon an incline, one of the other of said members being superposed with relation to the aforesaid member and adapted to form a filter therefor, and a third member provided upon its outer surface with a pocket having one of its upper ends formed with a notch, the opposite end of said pocket being arranged a short distance below the upper edge of said member, and said superposed member having an overlying tapered clip received by said notch and adapted to engage the perpendicular Wall thereof.
ln testimony whereof have signed'my name to this specication in the presence'of two subscribing Witnesses.
GEORGE HENSLER.'
