Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 128,937, dated July 9, '1872.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, LEWIS H. WOODEN, of Hampstead, in the county of Carroll and State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ventilating Window- Blinds, adapted for barns and other farm outbuildings, of Which the following is a specification: 1
Heretofore farmers have experienced great inconvenience and loss by reason of the driving rains and snows which force their way through -the open slatted blinds o f their outbuilding windows, and have only remedied the defect by stufing the intervals with straw, thus excluding the light and giving the interior a gloomy appearance. The objectlof my invention is to remedy'these defects, and to produce a cheap and substantial barn-window, which shall combine in itself all the advantages of an open window, a glass sash, and a blind of slats. To this end, my invention consists in providing the upper section of slats with pivoted weather-strips, for holding in place the glass backing, as hereinafter described; and also in constructing the lower section of sash entirely of independent removable bars and mullionsheld in place by dowel-pins, as will be presently described, and covered on their inner side by one or more removable panes of glass, the construction of the several parts and their manner of removal and readjustment being hereinafter more fully specified.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents a front elevation of my improved window-blind. Fig. 2 represents an insiderview of the same. Fig. 3 represents a vertical section thereof, showing by dotted lines the manner of removing the glass; and Fig. 4 represents views in detail of the bars of the sash and window-strips. Y
About midway between the sill and top of the frame A of the Window I form a series of slats, B, and pivoted to the frame near the lower slat of the series B are removable window-strips b, fastened to the ,frame near the top by pins c. These strips b serve to secure the glasscover or backing (l of the slats, and hold it rmly in place against the beating of storms, &c., and also as will be seen from the drawing, as a means whereby the glass is confine the edges of two panes of glass, if used.
When it is desired to have afull ventilation of the building, the pins c of the pivoted window-strips b are removed and drawn inward from the top, when the pane of glass C can then be easily taken out, and vice versa, when it is desired to close the top section of the window in bad weather. l
InfFig. 4 of the drawing I have shown the window-strips and sash-bars of the lower sash vin detail, and from it their ready removal and adjustment can now be understood. The false mullion d is provided with a tenen, g, which lits into a socket, h, in the lower slat ofthe se ries B, and at its lower end with a dowel-pin ttin g into a hole in' the bottom rail i of the sash. The bars and mullions of the sash being all provided with dowel-pins and holes, it is only necessary, when it is desired to open the lower section D, to push the mullion d' upward until the dowel-pin is drawn out, when the mullion may be removed. The windowstrips f are removed in a similar manner to the strips of the upper section; (being secured to the frame by pins 5) the glass may then be taken out, and the sash also, if desired.
This is one of the great advantages of my invention, as it not only produces the appearance of a window-sash from the outside, but is readily removed and adjusted when desired and is much cheaper and better for the pur y pose than window-sash.
Thus my invention combines in itself all the advantages of an open window, a slatted windowblind, and a glass sash, and while taking the benefits of all, remedies the vdefects of each.
Having described my invention, I claim- 1. In a Ventilating window-blind having an upper section of slats, I claim the pivoted side strips b, secured in place and made removable at their upper ends, for holding in place the glass backing and allowing of its ready rea my hand inthe presence of two subscribing.
moval, as described.
2. The lower removable mullions d d', bars e, and Window-strips f, all arrangedand connected tO hold the glass in place, and all being capable of ready removal, as described. In testimony whereof I have hereunto setk Witnesses, this 27 t-h day of April, A. D. 1872.
