Application led 0ctober`25, 1927.

This invention relates to improvements'in more particularly to metallic window sash and frame construction, wherein the Isash swings outwardly from within the frame. ..1 if" l y `The objectof theinventien is to provide in awindow of theabove `described class, an improved sealed hinge joint between the parts, which' is dust, airA and waterproof, yet lpermittingy of free movement of the swinginor member or members. f f

` n carrying out my invention I provide, in a single sash construction, one side of the kwindow `frame witha unitary arcuate tongue extending from top to bottom of said frame within thefsash opening, thusproviding a semi-circular groove in which'the sash of the 'window pivots. In a doublesash Aconstructhe window frame are provided with grooved tongues as will` be understood. f iy 'f One side of the window sash may be integrally formed with'a bead and a curved wall spaced from the'bead to provide lan f arcuate tongue yor extension on the window frame when -thesash swings outwardly 4with the bead as its center." The beadand arc.- uate chamber extend from bottom to top of the window sash. f j The invention possesses other advantageous features which will be setfforth at length in the followinfr'specifcation.

The arrangement o the partsmay be varied considerably, the presentembodiment illustrates the inventionnow thought to be the best form, k but yit will be understood that many refinements maybe marde in the com-H mercial application construction provided yfor the purpose set' forth.

' In the drawings forming part of this specification: f

' Fig. k1 is a front fragmentary elevationof Fig. 2-is a horizontal cross sectionthrough the hinge joint i taken on the 'line 2-2 of FOZI.' 'i' Fig. 3 is a horizontal cross section taken on f the line 3-,3 of Fig. 1 and n Fig. i4 is a vertical ycross section through the window sill vand the lowery rail of the sash i taken on the line 4-4 ofF ig. 1.y

f Referring now to the drawings in detail, `I indicate at`10 the lower righthand corner portion of a window frame and at 11 a corresponding portion of a window sash.,- s The window frame and sash 'are preferably cast, dra

of brass, steel or other appropriate metal, wn or stamped to shape to provide a rigid durable structure for use in connection with banks,-oliice buildings, hotels and other kbuildings of the better sort.

Inv a single sash window construction I form a side rail 12 ofthe window frame with ra unitary arcuate "tongue or extension y13,

providing a ling from top 1ng. f Y

vOne side or stile 15 of the window sash 11 'is preferably formed with a unitary bead 1.6, and an arcuate wall -17 spaced from said bead to provide a chamber 18 adapted to receive the arcuate tongue 13, when the winsemiscircular groove Mextend- ,to bottom of the window opening as the pivotal center.

The sill 19, ofthe window frame is preferably indented longitudinally to form a shallow groove 20, in which a stopbar 21, having' an upwardly di secured by screws or other devices 23.` n

The, lower rail 24 of the windowsash llhas formed therewith' a downwardly directed flange 25, which abuts the stop bar 21,'atritsy outer side when the window is closed, theV inner tace'of the ylower rail 24 'also' abuts the flange 22-thus providing a sealed step joint at the bottom of the window Sash.

Lthe bead l 16v act-' rected flange 22 i. 'f

" 'Thestile 15 of the window is also formed` with a short outwardly extending flange 26', which abuts the inner face of the window frame when the window sash is closed. There is a space 27 provided between the window trame and sash, in which the'base plates 28, of brachets'i'or bracing the stile 15 may be disposedr and securedfto the 'window frame as'v shown in dotted `lines in section in Fig. 8. The brackets (but one of which is shown)r take the form ofcurved with theirbase plates 28,

into` the curved chamber 118.'

` Base ypla tes 28, and thei-rlugs 29 may, how-v ever, be dispensed with since the sash bead 16 could disengage its groove 14 in the arcuate tongue 13 in one position only, namely when the sash is fully closed. To permit the 1 easy assembly of the window, I namely prefer to make the arcuate extension so that the circular bead could enter into'the same in the position of the sash above men-v tioned, and naturally could also be easily lift Fig. lL and in semicircular f ed out of it in said position. To prevent this I however' employed the abutting member 22 on the window sill which will prevent the freeing ot the bead from the groove Veven after the arcuate tongue has left the cham ber 1S.

rl`he customary window panes 3l in place by appropiate means 32.

rIlhe terms and are held expressions employed, are used as terms ot description and not of limitation, and I have no intention in the use ott such terms and expressions ot excluding any equivalents ot the tentures shown.

Tha-t I claim as new is:

l. In a window, a trame and aV sash, the frame having a semicircular extension, the sash having means engaging said extension for imparting pivotal movement to said sash when it is moved outwardly, and a stop member on the window iframe to prevent the disengagement ot the means on the sash trom said extension when they are Jfacing the open side of said semicircle. l

2. In a window, a trame and a sash, the trame having a semioircular extensionproviding a groove, the sash having nieans engaging said groove for imparting swinging movement to said sash when it is moved outwardly, and a stop member on the window trame to prevent the disengagement ot the means on the sash from said semi/circular groove when they tace the open side ot it.

3. In a window, a traine and a sash, the frame having an arcuate tongue provided with a semi-circular groove and extending from top to bottom et the sash opening, the sash having means for engaging said groove to swing said sash outwardly, and a stop member on the window trame to prevent the disengagement ot the means on the sash from said semicircular groove when they face the open side of it.

4. In a window, a frame and a sash, the trame having an arcuate tonguepprovi'ded with a semi-circular groove and extending from top to .bottom 'et the sash opening, the sash having means for engaging said groove to swing saidsash outwardly, said means comprising a bead and an arcuate wall spaced therefrom, and a stop member onV the window trame to prevent the disengagement of the bead from said groove when in Iiuxtaposition with the open side ot the semicircle.

5. In a metallic window, a frame and a sash, the frame having a unitary arcuate tongue providing a semi-circular groove, the sash having a unitary bead adapted to enter said groove and an arcuate wall providing a chamber to receive said tongue as shown and described, and a stop member on the window iframe to prevent the disengagement of the bead trom said groove when in juxtaposition with the open side ot the semicircle.

6. In a window, a tramev and sash, the frame having an arcuate extension, the sash having means engaging said extension imparting pivotal movement to saidy sash when it is moved outwardly, and bracing brackets secured to the trame and entering openings in said sash.

trame having an arcuate extension providing a groove, the sash having means engaging said groove tor imparting swinging movement to said sash when it is moved outwardly and bracing devices secured to the trame and entering openings in said sash.

8. In a window, a trame and a sash, the trame having an arcuate tongue provided with a semi-circular groove and extending from top to bottom of the sash opening, the sash having means tor engaging said groove to swing said sash outwardly and bracing for y brackets secured to the 'frame and entering I openings in said sash. A
