and Improved Wind-Shield, of whichv the following is a specification. i
This invention relates to a wind shield for automobiles which can be so adjusted in case of storm that the rain beating against the shield will not obstruct the free View of the driver or passengers.
In the accompanying drawing: VFigure 1 is a perspective view of a wind shield embodying my invention.y Fig. 2 an end View showing the upper shield sections unfolded; Fig. 3 a similar view with the upper sections folded; Fig. 4a front View of the top shield-member; Fig. 5 a detail of the spring hinge, and Fig. 6 an enlarged cross section on line 66, Fi 1..
The wind shleld comprises essentially a lower xed member 10 fitted into an upright frame 11, and constituting the main body of the device. The side rails 1.1a of frame 11 extend a distance beyond the top rail 11b thereof, and are by braces 12 rigidly secured to the body of the ear. To the upper ends of side rails 11 is pivoted by spring hinges 13 the frame 14 of a foldable top member 15. To the inner or lower side of top member 15, there is in turn hinged the frame 16 of an intermediate member 17 by means' of lugs 18 that extend inwardly from frame 14 and carry the pivot pins 19. Lugs 18 should be set at a substantial distance back of the lower or outer end of member 15, so that such member is adapted to project a corresponding distance beyond the upper end of the intermediate' member 17 and to thus constitute an overhanging roof. The bodyof the intermediate member 17 is made of glass or other transparent material to form a window and the lower rail 16a of its frame is adapted to be removably supported upon the to rail 11b of lower member 10. To this e ect rail 16 is provided with a longitudinal groove 1Gb which snugiy .encompasses the corresponding edge of rail 11b (Fig. 6). A catch 20 on rail 16a adapted to engage rail 11" serves to securely hold member 17 in its unfolded posi-- tion.
In case of good weather, top member 15 1s lowered against the outer side of bottom member 10, while intermediate member 17 is folded against the inner side of such bottom member. This lat-ter operation may bc accomplishfal owing.; to the fact that the frame 16 of member 17 is made so much narrmver than frame l1 ot boite-m memlau: 10 that it may be passed freely through the same,
while at the same `time, the lugs 18 will be projected through trame ll, and thus carry member 17 beyoml the inner facerthereof. After the members have been folded in the manner described, they are locked in position by a pair of catches 2l, on side rails 11 that engage over the correspond.ing rails of frame 16 (Fig. E).
In case of bad weather, the device is unfolded by, pushing lmember 17 outward and upward until its bottom rail 16'* becomes seated upon rail 11b to which itis locked by catch 20. In this position member 17 will project outwardly and upwardly from the top of member 10, while member 15 will extend outwardly and downwardly over member 17 and overhang the same to a eonsiderable extent (Figsf 1 and 2) so that meniber 17 is effectively protected from the rain, and a clear vision is insured. In order to prevent the rain from dropping from member l5 upon xneaiber 17, the bottom rail 14 ol? the former is provided with a gutter 22 that slopes gradually from the center toward the ends of the rail and thus discharges the water to the right and left of the window.
It is obvious that the pivotal connection of the intermediate member' 17 may be formed between such member and the top rail 1lb of lower member 1.0, in which case the upper end of member 17 would abut against the lower side of top member 15 at a distance back of the free end thereof.
I claim:
l. A wind shield comprising a lower lifted member, a frameextending upwardly beyond the same, an upper member pivotcd to said frame, an intermediate member pivotcd to the upper member at a distance from the free end thereof, and means for removably connecting the lower end of the intermediate member to the upper end of the lower member.
2. A wind shield comprising a lower fixed member, a frame-extending upwardly thereadapted 0 secure the iiiirmefiate member from, an upper member pivoted to 1the to said frame;
