STORM WINDOW. APPLICATION FILED FEB. 9. X918.
JOHN G. MARVIN, or MAnIom'INDIANA.
stream-WINDOW.
Specification of Letters Patent. l Patented NOV. 131, 1919.
Application filed February'vB, 191,8.V Serial No. 216,255.
To all whom t may concern Be it'known that I, JOHN G. MARVIN, a citizen of the' United States, residing at Marion, in the county of Grant and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Storm-lVindow, of which the following is a specification. Y n
- This invention relates to a storm window intended for use principally on street cars, automobiles, and other vehicles of transportation.
The invention contemplates aY window which can be reversed for the purpose' of cleaning; and also the provision V.ofmeans for draining water orY moisture from the window and discharging the same outside of the vehicle or structure to' which the window is attached.
A further object within the contemplation of the invention is the provision of means for preventing rain, snow and dust being driven through the openings about the window.
A still further object contemplated by the invention is the provision of a simple, durable, and efficient window.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
A practical embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a rear elevation of a window constructed in accordance with the invention' Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal section;
Fig. 3 is a detail side elevation 0f the sash.
ReferringV to the drawing by numerals of reference f In carrying out the invention there is provided a ixed main frame or casing 1, and to the opposed faces of the edges dening the opening to the frame a weather strip 2 of sheet metal or the like is secured. This strip is formed with an inturned flange 2 about its periphery at the front face of the window frame or casing, and the edge of the fiange is bent backwardly for the purpose of contacting the window sash to make a tight joint and exclude snow and rain.
Pivotally'z-hung on pins 3 to swing vertically within the casing 1 is an auxiliary frame 4 within which a sash 5 pivots horizontally Vvon pins 6 which are positioned in alining sockets formed in thefupper andV lowerbars ofthe frame 4f and the sash 5. When the frame l and the sash 5v are swung inwardlyto'an open: position on the pivots 3, the ange2 no longer bears on the o-uter surface lof the sash, and then the sash may be reversed on the pins. 6. A glass or other transparent panel 7 is inserted in the sash 5, the sides yof the sash being slotted for the purpose of allowing insertion and removal of the panel. A strip 8 is fitted into the slot at each side of the sash for the purpose of retaining the panel in place and these strips may be retained by yokes 9, preferably formed of sheet metal, which are pivoted as at 110 to the lower ycorner at each side of the sas A strip or keeper 11 is formed along the inner edge o-f the lower transverse bar of the casing and acts with the flange 2 to form a channel, as seen most clearly in Fig. Y
2, for the collection of rain or moisture which may have accumulated on the sash and gravitated therefrom. This collected moisture is discharged from the channel through a discharge opening 12 formed in the lower flange 2.
It will be noted that the flange 2 extends before the slot formed by the meeting of the frame 4 with the casing 1 and also the slot formed by the meeting of the frame 4 with the sash 5, so that rain or snow may not be driven through such openings.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new and sought by Letters the auxiliary frame and engaging the outer Y surface of the sash;A means. for pivoting the vauxiliary frame at one endl to the fixed frame whereby the auxiliary frame may be` swungv to an open position,thereby to space the sash4 from the flange of the strip; and means for pivoting the sash, midway beltween its edges, to the auxiliary frame, whereby the sash may Ibe reversed after. the auxiliary frame has been swung to an open position to space the sash from the flange of the strip.
2. A devicev of the class described, constructed as set forth in claim l, and further characterized by the fact that the flange of the strip is provided witha keeper, a button being pivoted intermediate its ends to the auxiliary Jframe, the button projecting inwardly to overlap the sash and outwardly to engage the keeper, thereby to hold the auxiliary frame closed inthe main frame, and to hold the sash releasably against reversal in the auxiliary frame when the auxiliary frame is swung to an open position to space the sash from the iiange of the strip. 4
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
JOHN G. MARVIN.
