-otwhich the ollowingis a speciiic-ation.
-This invention 'relates to afwindow cleaning device which is essentially adapted for cleaning the outsidevolf a slidabylewinddw.
My device consists essentially of a rectangular frame. slidably mounted on an adjustable bar which is secured to the outsideof a Window, frame. ."llhe rectangular frame has on'one side 'of it abuffer, whichv carries a strip 'of .rubber Oyer which may be secured a cloth and on the opposite side of the frameV secured al weight which presses the buer against rthe window 'so thatwhen the win! vdow sash is moved up and down from the insidegthe butferpresses against' the window' l traine the portion between /the' frame being withsullicient force to clean it.
In the accompanying drawings; Figure l isvan -eleyation showing my devicensecured on the outside-.ofl the' window casing ready -for operation. Fig 2 is 'alongitudinal sec? tional view thereof, the -support for the swinin -rame being shown in this figure,` D y h C as located slightly .within the window casing, whereas in Fig. 1 l the said support is entirely outside of saidl c`a's1ng.`y Fig. 3 1s al 4 .perspective View of the Vdevice detached 'from thev windowl frame andA diering slightly' from the constructionfshown in Fig. 2, in that the weight 'is slightly 'differently positioned. F ig. /lis asimilar View illustrating "a -inoditication of construction. lnfthis drawing the letter @designates a 'tubular bar-'inone end lof which isbtted a 40.
rodA Thisrod telescopes into the tubular bar and can be adjusted so that the tixture can be fitted to windows of various dimensions. The'ends of the bar and rod are provided with studsjc ofl suitable shape to lit in brackets '-(Z secured to the outer side of thewindow casing e. -Loosely mounted on the bar a is a' swinging frame, ,preferably rectangular in form. AThis frame has front arms f and rear arms g. The frontA arlns j"V are connected .to a weight .7L which is'located between the armshand weighsl approximately from two to'vfour pounds as may be desired;
This rod .72, may be disposed at one side of 11hearins f, as. shown in Fig. 2, or at the WINDOW-CLEANING -DEVICE.

other side,'as,sliown in Fig. 3, such arrange'- mentbemg ai mere detail to which the inventionis'not restricted. 7 The rear arms g Fig. 4, for the purpose of lattaching a cloth (not shown) over the rubber butler la.
-lVhen itis desired to arrange the cloth all that is necessary is to move either of the' sashcs upward or downward in order to open the Window, sothat the frame can be swiveledgand.the cloth can be arrangedfroi'n the insideof the window. y In 'Fig Bthe Weightis shown-reyersed in 'its relation to the frame, or in other words the ends of the frame are bent 'inwardly instead of outwardly to engage the ends 'of the weight. The weightin either construction is set between 'the lowerends of the of larger diameter than the ends, so that theweight will'be firmly clamped by'` the ldownwardly extending arms of the frame and prevented from shifting.
The operati-on of. the Idevice is as follows: The adjustable fixture ab is set in'brackets may be provided with hooks Z,- a's shown yin d which are secured to the window casingh swinging frame may be made of any .desired size, or if 1t is found necessary two ,A
or more frames can be hung on the saine adjustable rod'.
As 'shown in the drawing the frame is adapted to clean about one half of thewidth yof the window pane, and inthis connection it. may be` said that a frame of this size is especially adapted for cleaning a sash with.
a central rail dividing two panes. `The frame is laterally movable along the bar a to clean the full width ofA any size window, or the frame can be made of the. saine width vas the window in its application to a 'single 'pane in a. sash. It will be understood that the frame can be oscillated to cot'lperate with I the upper or lower sash and the Weight vwill at all timespress the rubber strip' 71j against the lWindow.
I claim 'Y 1. A Window cleaning device, comprising a bar attached to a window casing, a frame swingingly mounted on the bar, a cleaning` member carrleclby the frame, and a weight connected to the' frame for pressing the cleaningm'ember 'against the window.
2. A Wlndow cleanlng device, comprismg a bar attached to a Wlndow casing, a. frame lVtnesses:
