UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILIIAM J. CONNORS, OF SAN J'OSE, CALIFORNIA.
ADJUSTABLE WINDOW SASH.
Application flled April 18, 1927. Serial No. 184,551.
'Variation in width of the frames which is found at times due to the materials and the method of construction employed in making` such frames.
I have particularly in mind to arrange my adjustable sash in connection with a combination sash and casement window structure,
such as is shown in my copending applicao tion for patent, SerialV No. 168,331, filed February 15th, 1927, so as to enable this improved window structure to be installed in the wooden frames of buildings already erected and provided with such frames. By means of the adjustment feature the window structure may be properly fitted into the frames regardless of whether any discrepancy in' the dimensions of the frames is found and without any cutting away or alteration of the frames being necessary.
A further object of the invention is to produce a simple and inexpensive device and yet one which will be exceedingly effective for the purpose for which it is designed.
These objects I accomplish by means of such structure and relative arrangement of parts as will fully appear by a perusal of the following specification and clanns.
In the drawings similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several views:
Fig. 1 is an interior elevation of my improved window structure as mounted in connection with a Wooden frame, the lower sash being partly broken out to show the adjustment feature.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary view of one of the sliding sashes showing the cooperating adj ustment plate member disengaged therefrom.
Fig. 3 is a cross section of the sash and the ad'justment plate.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary Vertical section on the line 4-4 of Fig. 3.
Referring now more particularly to the characters of reference on the drawings, each sliding sash 1 com rises a rectangular metal member of hollow 0x like section, as is customary in the construction of pressed metal sashes. Each sash is adapted to receive a casement sash 2, in which the window pane 3 a is mounted and which is hinged onto one side of the outer sliding' sash as at (i forinward swinging and opening movement. The innerperiphery of the sash 1 is provided with an inwardly projecting fiange 5 and with a groove 6 inwardly of said flange, The sash 2 fits againstfthe fiange 5, while the groove serves as a water catch and drain means as featured in said copending application.`
This feature, however, has nothing to do with the present invention. a
The outer Vertical edge of the sash 1 on thefside thereof opposite to the hinge 4 is open from top to bottom as shown in Fig. 2, thus forming a deep wide groove between the sides of said sash. A Vertical plate 7 having side flanges 8 fits into said groove, the flanges having close engagement with the inner surfaces of the sash-sides. At top and bottom the plate 7 is provided with horizontal ears 9 overhang'ing and e-Xtending beyond the flanges 8, the opposite faces of said earsbeing ada-pted to rest against the outer faces of cups 10 depressed in the metal of the outer horizontal edge faces of the sash. The ears have holes 11 therethrough with nuts 12 ivelded on the adj acent facesof the ears concentric with said holes. size suflicient to receive the heads 13 of screws or bolts 14 which are threadedl into the nuts, the cups being slotted longitudinally as at 15, so as to permit of a certain adjustment of the plate member to and from the adjacent transverse edge of the sash. The plate 7 Vfrom its upper end downwardly a certain distance has a Vertical groove or depression 16 of suitable width and depth to receive one end of the usual counter-weight cord 17 therein, said cord passing through a hole in the metal at the bottom and back of the groove and being knotted beyond said hole as shown in Fig. 1.
It is assumed that the width of the fixed or perm anent portions of the metal sash is such that said sash will fit the smallest Wood frame of a certain standard size liable to be encountered. It will therefore be seen that if undue space is found to eXist between the transverse edges of the sash 1 and the Vertical members of a wooden frame. 18 in which it is desired to install the sashes, it is only necessary to loosen the screws 14, slide the plate 7 outwardly the necessary distance, and again tighten the screws. This tightening of the screws of course acts to clamp the cars against The cups are of a the adjacent surfaces of the cups so as to hold said plate member then irn'movable. The metal of which the sash is made is so thin that the slight offset between the edges of the sash a-nd the flanges 8' of the plate member Will not be noticed even if such offset is disposed so that it is not concealed by the guide beading of the frame.
From the foregoing description it Will be readily seen 'that I have produ'ced such a device as substantially fu'lfi'llsthe objects of the i'n'vention 'as set forth herein.
Thile this specification sets forth i'n deteil the present and* preferred construction of the device, still in practice such deviations from such detail nliey be resorted to as do not 'form a departu're from the spirit of the invention, asl'defined by 'the eppended claims.
i H'aving 'thus descrifbed niy invention what I elaini'as newvzrnd ueeful end desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. n window coi'istruction, e sash, one vertieal ou'ter edge of which is grooved for substantial'lyv the entilre transverse extent of the sash, a plate member having side fl'anges proj'e'c'ti'ng into the groove for hori'zontal moveme'n't to and' from the adjacent edge of the sash, horizontal ears on the top and b'ottom of the plate member to engage the torresponding surfa'eos of the sash, and adjustinent means secu'rin'g'the ears to the sa'sh.
2. In window construction, a sash', one vertical outer edge of which is grooved for substantially the entire transverse extent of the sash, a plate member having side flanges projecting into the groove for horizontal movement to and' from the adjacent edge of the sash, horizontal ears on the top and` bottoin of the plate member to .engage the corresponding surfaces of the sash, openings through each ear and the eorresponding sashsurface, one of said 'openings being` slotted, and ac'liuinpin'g bolt through said openi'ngs.
3. In Windoi'v construction, a hollow sash, one ve'l'tieal edge of which is cut away from top to bottom for the full width between the sides of 'the sash, a plate member having side fiainges to project between and engagfe said sides, horizontal e'ars on the top and bottom of the plate 'to extend toward the sash, and provided with tapped orifices; opposed oups depresseid in the top and bottom surfaces of the sash adjacent the 'cut away edge to `rec'e'ive Vserewheads from above and below the sesh; 'the ears being adapted to rest on the wrLLrAM J. ooNNoRs.
