COMBINED SLIDABLE AND REVERSIBLE -W'INDOW SASHES.
Application led May 12, 1924. Serial No. 712,586.
sashes vertically in the usual manner and in addition reversing them so that they may be readily cleaned or adjusted for ventilation.
Another object is to provide a construction wherein the means of mounting the -sashes is such as will permit manipulation of the sashes with a minimum amount of exertion on the part of the operator.
A further Object is to provide a combined slidable and reversible window sash having intertting tongue and groove connection with portions of the window casing or frame, thus providing weather-proof construction.
It is likewise an object to generally simplify window construction and at the same time provide an unusually eiiicient and durable structure.
Other objects will be in part obvious and in part pointed out hereinafter.
In order that the invention and its mode of operation may be readily understood by persons skilled in the art, I have in the accompanying illustrative drawings, and in the following detailed description based thereon set out one possible embodiment of the same.
Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of a window constructed in accordance with this invention, the sashes being in closed position;
Figure 2 is a view illustrating one of the sashes in open position and ready for reversing, and the other sash in a partially open position, the arrows indicating the direction of movement of the sashes upon their pivots;
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken substantially on the line 3-3 of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken substantially on the line 4-4 of Figure 1;
. Figure 5- is a fragmentary front elevation partly in section;
-Flgure 6 is a detail perspective View of the slide and arms which support one side of the y sash, and
Figure 7 is a detail perspective view of one of the parting or dividing strips.
Having more particular reference to the drawings throughout which similar characters Vof reference designate similar parts this invention may be stated as comprising a Window casing or frame 10 including the' usual vertical chambers 11, in which the sash weights, cords, pulleys, etc., are arranged. Each outer finishing strip 12, as clearly illustrated in Figures 3 and 4, is provided with an inwardly extending tongue 13 and between this tongue 13 and the inner wall of the casing, with a rib 14. The tongue 13 is adapted to snugly fit slidably in a vertical groove 15 in a sash whereby to provide a weather proof joint or connection as be'- tween the window sash and the casing. It is understood that this mode of connection is put into elect at both vertical sides of the window. The vertical rib 14 when associated with the dividing strip 16 serves tol provide a way or groove 17 wherein I prefera'bly arrange a metal channel or guide member 18 whose function will be hereinafter apparent. This channel or guide member 18 as shown, extends the full length of the window casing, and is secured thereto by screws or other fastening devices.
The lower half of each parting or dividing strip 16 is formed as illustrated in Figure 3. A tongue 19 is arranged to fit within a vertical channel 20 formed in the lower window sash and with a rib 21 which co-acts with a inishing strip 22 to form a way for the receotion of a second channel Or guide member 23 which is formed identically with respect to the first named channel or guide member 18. The upper half of the partingv or dividing strip 16 is out down leaving only a comparatively small rectangular strip 24 whose outer face is arranged in a plane with the outer face of the channel or guide member so as to permit swinging of the sashes and the supporting arms.
The channels or guide members 18 and 23 heretofore referred to have their vertically opoosed edges turned inwardly toward each other whereby to provide means for 25 have connection by'means of a cord or the like with the usual sash weights. Arranged upon the lower end portion of each slide member 25 is a comparativelv small "short channel or guide member 26 Which receives the outer end of a slidable bolt or guide pin 27 mounted in the adjacent sash. This bolt is provided with a finger or handle portion 28 whereby an operator may readily move `the bolt.
Each sash is pivotally connected to one of the slidable members 25 by means offa telescopic arm 27. The tube or housing 28 of this telescopic arm is pivoted to the sash at substantially the midway point of the sash, While the bar 29 is pivoted at its other end to the upper portions of the slide member 25. This bar 29 is provided with a longitudinal slot 30 through which is extendeda ivot pin 31 providing connection between this telescopic arm and second arm or link 32. As shown in Figure 2 in the accompany-v ing drawings the telescopic arm 27 may be extended to such a point as to entirely .clear the sash of the casing and slides carried thereby, in this manner allowing for rotation or reversing of the position of the sash.
The upper end of the lower sash is preferably of greater width than any of the remaming portions and is provided with a transverse outwardly extended tongue 33 adapted Jfor snugly engaging in a groove 34 formed in the lower inner ,rail of the upper sash. This connection obviously prevents entry of moisture etc. The upper and lower ends of the upper. and lower sashes respectively are provided with Weather strips for obvious reasons.
In manipulating this window, the sashes being positioned as shown in Figure 1, the lower sash is first moved substantially to the position shown in Figure 2 whereupon the tongue 33 carried thereby is moved from the path of downward travel of the upper sash. At this point the upper sash is moved downwardly to free it of engagement with the weather strip at the upper end of the casing, after which the window is' moved through exerting pressure upon the lower rail in a vertical direction and simultaneously with this movement the upper end of the sash will move toward the operator. During this operation the slidingibolt or, guide pin 27 i is sliding in the short channel or guide member 26and before the position of the sash as shown in Fi re 2 can be assumed, the bolts or guide pms must be retracted or dis engaged from the guide channel 26. This retraction being effected, the telescopic arm may be extended to its limit as shown in Figure 2 andy consequently position the sash so that it may be rotated or reversed as is obvious.
Manifestly, the construction shown is capable of considerable modification and such modification as may` fall within the scope of my claims, I consider within the spirit of my invention.
I claim:
1. The combination of a Window casing having opposed vertical Ways, a slide member arranged in each way, a sash, and telescopic arm and link mechanism connecting the sash and slides whereby to permit vertical sliding and reversing of said sash.
2. The combination of a window casing having opposed vertical ways, a slide member arranged in each way, a sash, a tele scopic arm pivoted at one end to the upper end of `said slide member and at its other end to substantially the medial point of the sash, and a pivoted link connection between the slide member and telescopic arm.
3.- The'combination of a window casing having opposed vertical ways, a slide member arranged in each way,` a sash, a telescopic arm pivoted at one end to the upper end of said slide member and at its other end to substantially the medial point of the sash, a pivoted link connection between the slide member and telescopic arms and a separable connection between each slide and the lower part of the sash.
4. The combination of a window casing having opposed vertical ways, a slide member arranged in each way, a sash, said sash and slide being of substantially equalh lengths, a channel guide member arranged vertically upon the lower portion of each slide \member, a retractable guide pin carried by the sash and receivable in said guide member, a telescopic arm pivotally connecting -the medial portion of thev sash and the upper end of the slide, and a pivoted link connection between the slide member and the intermediate portions of said telescopic arm.
5. The combination of a window casing having opposed vertical ways, a channel member arranged in each way and extending the length of the casing, a sash, a slide member arranged in each channel member and being of substantially equal length with the sash, separable connection between the lower end of the sash and the lower portion of the slide member to maintain relative parallel vertical travel of said end of the sash upon the slide member during part of the opening operation, a telescopic arm connecting theupper end of the slide and said sash, and a pivoted link connecting said slide and the intermediate `portion of the telescopic arm.
6. The combination of a window casing having opposed vertical ways, a sash, a slide member arranged in each way, a telescopic arm having one part ivoted to the upper end of the slide mem er, -the second part being pivoted to substantially the medial point of the sash, said parts having a cross pin and longitudinal slot connection, and a pivoted link having one end connected to said cross-pin and the other end to the slide member.
7. The combination of a window casing having opposed vertical ways, a sash, a
slide member arranged in each way, a telef scopicarm having one part pivoted to the upper end of the slide member, the second part being pivoted to substantially the medial point of the sash, said parts having a cross-pin and longitudinal slot connection, a pivoted link having one end connected to sald cross-pin and its other end to the slide member, and separable slidable connection between the lower end of the sash and each slide member whereby parallel relative sliding between the lower portions of the sash and slide member is maintained during the first steps of opening the sash.
