SASH HOLDER. APPLICATION FILED 050.21. 1915.

ROBERT F. HUNTER, OF BELLEFONTE, PENNSYLVANIA.
SASH-HOLDER.
Specification ofvLetters Patent.
Patented Oct. 9, 1917.
Application filed December 21, 1915. Serial No. 68,058.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ROBERT F. HUNTER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bellefonte, in the county of Center and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sash- Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improved sash holder and process of producing same.
The primary object of the invention is to produce a sash holder of simple and very cheap construction and particularly one which may be readily applied byany one, re ardless of their skill and mechanical ability, to which end, one feature of the invention resides in producing a sash holder which may be applied without removing the window or any portion of the window or frame construction. 1
A further object of the invention is'to so construct the device that a great number of these holders may be stamped from a single strip of material without waste.
A further object of the invention is to so construct the device that when applied, it will be practically invisible.
A further object relates to producing the device of a single thickness of material of extra thin gage to which end the holder may be applied to close-fitting sashes without resetting the window strip.
A further object relates to producing a device of the character described, in which double semi-elliptical shaped resistance or friction contacts are provided, whereby all tendency to displace the fastening means, when the window is raised or lowered, is obviated.
With these and other features in view, which will be apparent from the following detail description, the invention will be more readily understood upon reference to the accompanying drawing.
In said drawing Figure 1 is a partial view of a window and window frame construction showing the application of the invention.
Fig. 2 is a detail view of the device.
Fig. 3 is a plan view illustrating the manner of producin a number of the devices from a single strlp of material.
Referring to the drawings in detail, A represents a window frame, B the inside window strip and G the window sash, all
of which being constructed in a conventional manner. The sash holder is preferably constructed of spring metal and comprises a body portion 1 in which openings 2 are provided for receiving the fastening means, such as tacks, screws, or the like; ofi'set at opposite sides but integral with the body portion 1 are the resistance or friction contacts 3. These contacts are produced in a semi-elliptical shape and, as above stated, preferably of some spring metal. In applying the device the semi-elliptical shaped contacts are presented with their bow or crest toward the inside window stri B and with their ends or oints presented against the window sash; 51611 by pressing the contacts flat, they are slid between the inside window strip and the window, leaving nothing exposed except the body portion 1 which, by means of it being offset from the contacts, enables the fastening tacks or screws 4 to be applied through the openings 2 and driven into the sash; whereby the device will be fastened on the sash and adapted to perform its intended function.
In the manufacture of my improved sash holder, attention is directed to Fig. 3 of the drawing, where a blank is shown comprising a single piece of material and the manner of stamping a number of the devices without waste. The semi-elliptical shape of the contacts may be produced either simultaneously with the stamping process or the blank may be so shaped before it is put through the stamping process.
It is to be further understood that any practicable number of the holders maybe used in connection with one window; by using four holders on one window, preferably placing them at the four respective corners of the sash, an even balance of the window is obtained.
I claim:-
A sash holder comprising a single strip struck from a sheet of spring metal and having an ofi'set portion intermediate the ends of the strip, whereby the strip may be securedto its support, and two alined end portions, said strip having a cut-out portion opposite the offset portion and of the same shape as the offset portion.
The foregoing specification signed at Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, this 20th day of Dec,
ROBT. F. HUNTER.
