Description

Jan. 7, 1930. J. BIRON WINDOW SASH ADJUSTER Filed April 13, 1929 INVENTOR (/OSE'PH BIRD/v av I 4 4f TTORNEYS Patented Jan. 7, 1930 UNITED STATES JOSEPH BIRON, or MAILLARDVILLEQ" arrier:"ooL BraQommDA WINDOW-SASH ADJUSTER i 7' Application filed April 13,
a corresponding lowering of the upper sash.
may be effected or vice versa.
The invention consists essentially of a pair of cables or cords each having one end secured to one sash and adjustably secured'to the other at the other end, which sash cables are adapted to run over pulleys attached to the head of the window frame, as will be more fully described in the following specification, and shown'in the accompanying drawings in which 1-- Fig. 1 is a fragmentary general view of the invention. 7
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the left hand fastening member attached to the stile of the lower sash.
Fig. 3 is a cross section taken on the line 33 of Fig. 2.
In the drawings like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure.
The numeral 1 indicates generally a window frame having socalled pulley stiles 2 and a head 3. Between the pulley stiles 2 are slidably fitted a lower and an upper sash numbered 4 and 5 respectively. The sashes are formed in the usualmanner with stiles 6 and meeting rails 7 and the upper sash 5 is fitted with a top rail 8.
Secured adjacent each end of the head 3 of the frame 1 is a pulley 9 over which a cord or light cable 10 is adapted to run, one end of each cable is secured by a fastening plate 11 to a stile 6 of the upper sash 5 and the other. end of the cable it attached to the upper end of a slide generally indicated by the numeral 12 as at 13 see particularly Figure 2. The slide 12 consists of a pair of spaced plates 14 and 15, the former being of 1929.. Sara no. 354905;;
greater width than the latter, the purpose of which will hereinafter appear.
The plates 14. and 15 are held in spaced relation by an upper and a lowerpin re spectively numbered 16 and 17, the pin 16 forming an anchorge for one end of the cable 10 and the pin 17 forming a pivot upon which a sidewise rocking pawl 18 having a lower hooked member 19 is fulcrumed. A pair of guides 20 are fitted on the face of the stiles 6 each of which consists of aback plate 21, see Figure 2, fitted with opposed side rails 22 and 28. V
The rails 22 and 23 are so mounted as to provide a pair of-vertical grooves 24: which are adapted to receive the edges of the plate 14 of the slide to hold it in place and to permit of its free vertical movement along the guides 20. A plurality of sawtooth recesses 25 are formed in the face of the rail 28 which are capable of receivingthe pawl 18 and holding the slide against upward movement when so engaged. The guides 20 will preferably be formed in'pairs one with the sawtooth recesses on one side and one with said recesses on the opposite side so that a person on pulling both sides downwards by the hooked members 19,0f the pawls 18 will tend to inclinesaid pawls to engage their respective recesses. I
-Having thus described the several parts of my invention I will now briefly explain its operation.
\Vhen it is desired to open the upper window the hook members 19 are moved side wise to disengage the recesses 25 and to permit the slides 12 to move upwards along the guides 20 and the top sash to descend to the desired opening when the pawls are permitted to engage the recesses to lock the slides in adjusted position. Should the opening be desired at both top and bottom of the window the lower sash is then raised and through the cords 10 the top sash still further lowered.
If it is desired to open the lower sash only, it is raised inthe usual way and the hooked members 19 are drawn downwards along the guides 20 until the cables 10 are taut when the rocking of the pawls 18 locks the slide 12 and leaves the sash in adjusted position.
What I claim as my invention is: In Window sash adjuster, a uide adapted for attachment to a sash and tted with recesses, a slide adapted to be anchored remote from said sash, said slide having a pawl, and hand operated means for rocking the pawl to engage one of the recesses of the guide to lock the slide to adjusted position. Dated at Vancouver, B. 0., this 4th day of April, 1929.
