application filed October 7', 1927. serial No. 224,658. I

vide new and improved and exceptionally simple and inexpensivemeans for slidablyj and pivotallv mounting the sas l u=zs. v v v Another object of the invention is to prog vide unique means at the edges of the sashes remote from the pivots', for connecting said sashes with sash balancing cords and permitt ting disconnection -from such cords when the sashes areto be inwardly swung.

With the foregoing in view, the invention resides in the novel subject-matter hereinafter described and claimed, the description being 3 zo'drawings. I 1

Fig; l is anfinner side elevation partly- 7 broken away and in section, showing a window constructed in 'accordance with my m- Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse sectional.-

view on line 2-2 of Fig.1..

Fig. 3 is a horizontal section on ofF1g.'1.

- Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 3 but .'1l1usa0 tratingpne of-the sashes swung inwardly.

Fig. 5 is a perspective view ofxportions-z of the means for connecting the sasheswith the balancin cords; Y The drawings above briefly described illustrate the preferred form ,of construction and while such construction will. be herein specifically explained, lt is to be understood Th that minor variations may be made within;-

Y the scope ofthe invention as claimed. More-- over, while I will herein refer' tosash balancing -c,or ds,'it is to be understoodthat-z chains or-the like may be used if desired.

The numerals 6 andf7 denote the? posed vertical stiles of a window frame each *5 stile being transversely stepped at its inner side, the innermostste s providing guide -shoulders 8 against w oh the outer side described cm in connection with one sash Th nm aefi i i em ith v "wall 20- supplemented by the i}. P a

screws :35 ch a longitudinal groove 12, at one sideof which the sash ispositioned, the inner'side of said sashbeing flush with the inner side wall 13 of said groove.' Upper and lower hinges 14 are provided at this-inner side of the sash, each hinge-embodying one leaf 15 secured by screws or the ,like 16 to the sash, and another leaf.- 17 which is rig'ht.angular in horizontal section, providing this leaf with anginner longitudinal portion 18 and an outer longitudinal portion 19.. The leaf 17 extends into the groove 12, the inner portion 18 of said leaf is in. substantial contact with theinner side wall- 13Tof said groove, and the outer portion 19 of .said leaf projects toward and is substantially in contact-with the bhtir s de wall20 of this groove, said extends? 1 weehithe walls'13 20,;

A flat, metal strip 22 is' secured by screws.

or the like 23 against'll-the inner side of the stile 6, said .strip projecting: laterally across the major portion of the groove 12 insliding contact with the leaf portion 19, the

inneredge of saidstri" being substantially in contact with the lea portion18'. Thus, it will be seen that the h nge 14 is mounted for eing parallel with said wall13. The

vertical sliding and that it may also act as a hinge to pivotally connect the' sash with the stile 6. I

The-edge of the sash disposed at the-stile -6, is grooved at 24 to receive a sash balancing-cord'25 which passes over the usual sheave 26 and is provided witha weight 27 sash in any esired manner. v I is formed, with 'ailongitudinal "flat-sided groove 28 -"which :is-s annedby-the adjacent edge if th'esash.

fate being secured tosaid 33; Preferably; the; upper and lower ends,

r gh pening t0 connection between the cord 33 and the sash,

and the latter will'beeltectively balanced by the two weights 27-39. When bolt-.40

is retracted however, the sash is entirely disconnected from the bar 29, allowing inward swinging of said sash as shown in Fig. 4.

When suchdisconnection is. eflected,it is of course desirable tov hold'the bar 29 against upward sliding under the influence of the weight 39 and the cord For this purpose,

, .a-prn 42 may be inserted into a socket 4:3

in the inner side of the stile in 'position to abut the"upper -end of bar 29, thereby holding the latter against upward move- 'ment.

Excellent results may. be obtained from the details of construction herein disclosed and as' above stated, these details are pref erably followed. Attention however, .is

' again directed to the fact thatwithin the ma be made;

scope of the invention as claimed, variations claim: 1. In a combined pivoted and slidable window, a frame stile havin a longitudinal groove in its inner side, a sa having an'edge said stile at one side of said oove, a hinge having one leaf secured to said sash and an other leaf extendin into said groove, said section longitudinal portions, said inner longitudinal portionbein disposed at one sidewall of said groove w ile said outer longitudinal portion projects toward the opp'osite side wall of said groove, and a strip extending ."longitudinally of and secured to said inner.

Side of the stile, said strip projecting laterally across the major porti n of said groove and overlapping said outer longitudinal portion of said other hinge leaf.

' 2. In a combined ivoted and slidable window, a frame stile having a longitudinal groove in its inner side, said groove being provided with opposed side walls disposed 1n parallel planes and with a fiat inner wall' at right angles to said side walls; a sash having an edge slidably contactin with said inner side of said stile, one side of said sashbeing flush with one of said side walls of said groove; a hinge having one leaf se- I cured against sa d side of said sash and.

other leaf being right angular in horizontal section providing it with an inner longitudinal portion and an outer longitudinal portion, said inner longitudinal portion being disposed substantially in contact with said one side wall of said groove and said outer longitudinal portion being positioned substantially in contact with said flat inner 'wall of the groove; and a fiat strip extending longitudinally of and secured to said inner side of said stile, said strip projecting.

laterally across the major portion of said another leaf extending into said groove, said groove in overlapping relation with said outer lon itudin'al portion of said other hinge lea and having a longitudinal edge substantially on contact with said inner longitudinal portion of this leaf.

.3. In a combined pivoted and slidable window, a frame stile having a longitudinal,

groove in its inner side, a pivotally and slidably' mounted sash having-an edge which spans said groove, a channel metal bar en I -,tirely and slidably. received in said groove 7 and having its flanges dis osed toward the} u 9" inner wall of said groove, t e flange-connecting portion of said bar being flush with the opening, a boltcarried by said sashandproinner sides of said stile and formed with an I jectable into said opening to connect the I sash and bariland a sash cord in theaforesaid groove av-ing its lower end received between said flanges of said bar and secured- .to the latter.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto aflixed my signature.
