COMBINATION BLIND AND sonnEN.
Application filed min, 1925. Serial No. 30,324.
In vhouse construction there is an increasing demand for colonial blinds or outside shutters, and as such usually fit more or less closely within the window frame or opening in advance of the window sash, it is difiicult in the use of such blinds to provide for the useof outside screens, owing to the insuiiicient space, and as such screens are desirable provision must be made for the use of the blinds and screens in the space permitted.
The principal object of the present inven 'tion is to provide for the relative arrange ment of the screen and blind, that the frame of the screen, which is hingedly mounted with respect to the window frame, is made to serve as a support for the blind, so that when closed the blind and screen are in practically the same plane, and the necessity for additional space to accommodate the screen 'is avoided.
A further object is to so arrange the screen and blind that they may be opened or closed relative to the window as a unit, or that the blind may be opened separately, leaving the screen as a window closure.
In the accompanying drawings Fig. 1 is a View in elevation showing the improved arrangement of screen and blind. Fig. 2 is a section on line 22 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional view show ing the meeting edges of the screen and the interfitting blind.
The window frame 1, as shown is of usual construction, having sliding or other window sash 2, in advance of which sash it is designed to apply a full length screen and blinds of the colonial type, with the full length screens capable of being opened when desired.
The improved screen, which is of double formation, that is divided vertically and centrally of the window, is made up of duplicate frame sections 3 and 4, comprising outer or carrier bars 5, inner or meeting bars 6, and upper and lower bars 7 and 8.- Each frame thus constructed occupies onehalf of the window opening, the meeting bars extending vertically and centrally of the window space, and the carrier bars 5 of the respective frame sections bearing against the sides of the window frame. The screen cloth is secured to the inner sides of the frame sections, being spaced, however from the inner surfaces of the frame bars by a.
spacing strips 10, for a purpose which will later appear.
The screen frames are movably connected I to the window fr'amethrough hinges =or similar mountings 11, which connect the outer surfaces of the carrier bars 5 to the wmdow frame, so that the carrier bars and the connected screen frames may be swung V bodily outward relative to the window frame, as shown in Fig. 2. That is to say, the relative outer front edge of each carrier bar is the hinged edge permitting the screen frames to be moved bodily into the space immediately in advance of the window sash, or wholly outside such space. The meeting edges of the bars 6 are rabbeted, as at 12, to interfit when the screen frames are in closed relation, suitable fasteningmeans (not shown) being employed if desired.
The blinds 12, which are of any usual or preferred detail construction, have an outer frame 18 of a size to fit snugly within the inner edge of the screen frames and the outer bars 1 1 of the blind frames are hinged ly connected at 15 to the forward inner edges of the carrier bars 5 of the screen frames. Thus the blinds may be swung outward with respect to and independently of the screen frames, or moved to closed positions, fitting within the screen frames, with the frame bars of the screen frames and of the blinds all in the same plane. Thus the screens and blinds occupy substantially the same space in advance of the window sash and no additional depth is necessary to accommodate the screens inwardlyof the blinds.
The spacing strips 10, by which the screen cloth is held away from the screen frames, is to permit free swinging of the blinds without permitting the inner edges of the outer bars of the blinds to contact with and consequently wear the screen cloth.
The screens and blinds thus occupy substantially the same space, so far as depth is concerned in the window frame, and the blinds may be placed in their usual relations to the window frame, while permitting the use of full length outside screens. It will be noted that the blind frames fit more or less snugly within the screen frames, and
that as a result the screens, one or both, may be opened simultaneously with and in the movement of the blinds, if desired, by simply moving the screen frame, or the blind may be opened independently, leaving the window screened.
The carrier bars 5 of the screen frames, when the blinds are open and the screens closed, present a continuation of the window frame, and the opened blinds have a natural and normal full opening relative to the Window frame.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new, is i As an article of manufacture, a complete colonial blind and screen unit assembly, comprising, in combination, a casement frame, a pair of rectangular open frames hinged.
respectively, to the side members of the casement frame, colonial blinds having a flush fit inthe open frames and hinged to blinds being of equal thickness so that when closed they are in straight line formation, strips bounding the openings on the opposite side of the open frames, and screens secured to the strips and spaced thereby away from the frames so as to permit the stated independent action of the blinds without the hazard of the corners thereof chafing the screens.
In testimony whereof I affix my signa ture.
JOHN W. GREEN.
