IMPROVEMENT IN SASH-H-OLDERS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 147,133, dated February 3, 1874 application tiled August 21, 1873.

To all ywhom t may concern:

Be it known that I, ROBERT B. HUGUNIN, of New York, county and State of New York, have invented an Improvement in Sash-Holders, of which the following is a specitieation:

My invention relates to certain improvements in sash-holders; aud consists in com-- bining a face-plate having an upward projection with a rocking arm having' a depending projection, and pivoted above the projection, with a spring interposed between the depending projection of the rocking arm and the up# ward projection of the faceplate, a roller bcing held between the rocking arm and the faceplate, the object being to obtain compactness and strength in the construction and operation of the working parts.

Figure l is an elevation, showin the application of' my invention. Fig. 2 is a detailed view of working parts.

A is `the plate for attaching the working parts and securing them to the casing. B is an arm secured to plate A. O is a projection on plate A, extending crosswise ot' it between the lugs, for attaching the arm B, and inward toward the hin ge-pin E. This projection may have another projection, upon its surface toward the lower end of the plate, for securing the coiled spring F from moving about on the face of the projection C. I), projection from lower end ot' arm B, corresponding in The projection D may be permanently cast on arm B, or be a separate piece, as shown in Fig. l of drawings. It has a projection, G, upon it, for securing the spring F. Il is a pin for securing arm B to the plate A. F is a coiled spring, made of spring metal suitable for the purpose, and used between projections C and D on plate A and arm B.. It works directly under the pin E, and in a direction nearly similar or parallel with the direction oi' coiled spring within the space embraced between the legs, the depending projection, and the vertical iiange. The spring and its coils thus work in the direction of the tace-plate, directly underneath the pivoting-pin, the rear end bearing on the depending projection, and the front end resting on the rear side ot' the vertical ange rising from the plate. In this way all the parts are. brought into a compactclose body, enabling, in a limited space, the use of an eiiieient coiled spring with suflicient elasticity and power to operate the arm andV roller without breaking or setting, and obviating the necessity of cutting away or removing a large portion ot' the 'jamb of the windowt'ra-me. These several important features, it would seem almost unnecessary here to say, cannot be found in the construction or arrangement ot' parts illustrated or described in any ot' my former patents, including those ot' December 20, 1870, and April S, 1873.

I claim as my invention- In a sash holder, the combination of the plate A, having the upward projection C, with the rocking arm B, having the depending projection D, and pivoted above the' projection (l, the coiled spring F, and roller H, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
