Abstract
The invention consists of several improvements introduced into the construction of mechanical draft excluders for the lower edge of doorjambs, characterized in that the body of the draft excluder is built in three sections aligned horizontally, with the two end sections each connected to a side of the doorjamb and the third laid out in a sliding fashion between the two to cover the separation that might exist between the two fixed end sections by adapting to the width of the door.
Claims14
A mechanical draft excluder for a lower edge of a doorjamb, comprising:
- a body having a first section, a second section, and a third section (“A”, “B”, and 32), aligned horizontally wherein said second section is disposed between said first and said third sections, said first and said third sections (“A” and “B”) each connected to a side of the doorjamb and locked with one another;
- the third section (32) is slidably disposed on opposing free ends of the first and the second sections, said third section (32) being slidable laterally to cover a separation between two internal ends of the first and the second sections (A and B).
