PATEN '1J Application led July 22, 1909. Serial No. 509,072.

To all whom; it mag/,concern Be it known that I, ERNEST R. Vienne, of the city of Montreal, in the Province o't' Quebec and Dominion of Canada, have invented 5 certain new and useful Improvements in Metal Window-Sashes, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description'.

This-invention relates to met-al window sashes, and more particularly to sashes in railway cars. The main object of the invention is t-o provide a sash frame of seamlessk metal tubing which will be very durable and efficient, and yet light in weight and com- 15 paratively inexpenslve.

The inventiorconsists essentially of a window sash of metal bent into tubular form,` with a flange at the glass o1' panel side combined with retaining strips or that hold the parts in position. Y In the drawings which illustrate my in` ventiom-Figure 1 is a partial elevation of a window construct-ed according to my in- 2 is a cross sectional view on the line 5-6 of Fig. 1 showing one method of forming the corner. Fig. 3 is a similar view on the line 9-10 of Fig. 1, showing another method of forming-the corner. Fig. 4

In the above defined figures, a plurality of seamless tubular sections of metal formed into a sash of vany desired con- The sections are provided with inwhich the glass panel 13 is clamped through `its peripheral setting 14 by the beadstrip 415. The setting 1,4 may be ofany suitable and the beadstrip 15 of'any' that shown in the drawings.' The tubular sections 11 may be united at the corners of the sash either by a miteror by a mortilse t e sections after being brought together are riveted to a casting 16 which holds the cor- ,the mortise is 11 designates'v the entire internal thicknessofrt-he section and the tenon is formed of .a tubular inem` ber 17, of adequate thickness and strength,

the side stiles` and riveted there, as seen in" the right hand corner of Fig." 1.'

As the metal of which the sections are constructed is of necessity too thin to be threaded' for the receptionolf the screws 1 8,

which secure the bead strlps 1 I provide a Vcomparatively thick filler strip'19nthreaded' f 60,A

to receive` the screws. The filler strip ex# tends into the hollow pressing the inner w cesses formed in the'abutting sur ller, as seen at'20, in Figs. 2 and 4. The liller is then 'turned under thetpanel seat and then downwardly at the `required angle to bring the portion that portion of the, bead stri which the screws 18 pass. desired to secure a. handle,

The screws 21J for attaching the fitting pass of the sash and into the lug 23. If so desired,

the tenen members 17 may be formed integral' with? the fillers in the rails, thus attaining additional rigidity and reducing on the thin walls of the rails. It willybe through the wallV the. stress.
