' 2 Claims. (01. 4e)
The invention relates to devices for enabling 21 and lifting the bolt 14 until its head will pass standard sliding window sashes to be pivotally through the upper part of the key hole slot 19. swung from the window frame so that both sides After the stop beads are removed the sash is of the sashes may be cleaned, glazed or otherwise lifted slightly above the apron 22 and pulled main object of the invention is to provide simple of the lower sash close to the left hand side of the means whereby this may be accomplished not only sash. The operating end 24 of this pivot fits in a on new windows but as readily on windows alsocket 25 inserted in the apron. A similar socket ready installed. A further object is toso conis inserted in the frame as shown at 26 to accomthe normal operations of the sashes'nor materially lower sash is in its closed position. alter any of the parts of the window. Another Aplate 27, having arearwardly extending hous object is to so construct this means that they ing 28, is secured to the window frame. Normally may be employed on windows of all sizes, A still this plate is almost hidden by the stop bead and 15 further object is to provide means which may be is not exposed until the stop bead is removed as l manufactured and installed at a comparatively in Fig. 2. A swinging pawl 30 is mounted in the low cost. housing 28 on a pin 31, and is provided with a These and various other objects and advantages pivot point 32. This point fits in a hole 33 drilled U will be readily understood from the following dein a plate 34 which is secured to the upper frame 20 scription and from the accompanying drawings of of the lower sash. E

While the sash Fig. 2 a similar view, but with certain parts has been manipulated in the manner just deremoved; scribed, it has been supported by the weighted Fig. 3 a similar view showing the lower sash chains 38 which pass over the pulleys 39. If the 30 swung into the room; chain, opposite to the end on which the frame is Fig. 4 a similar view showing the upper sash pivoted, is removed the sash may be swung around swung into the room; to any angle. To restore the sash to its normal Fig. 5 is a fragmental front view of a window position, the just described action is reversed. shown with both sashes swung into the room, The upper sash 11 is manipulated in practically 35 Figs. 6 to 11 show various parts and details of the same manner.

the construction. 3 and 4, in which opposite sides of the window Referring now to the drawings, Figs. 1 and 2 casing is shown, and to Fig. 10, which show the show a window in which the casing is shown at construction of the parting strips 40. A section 4.1 10, the upper sash at 11, the lower sash at 12 and of the parting strip is loosely mounted by means of eo the stop head at 13. The lower part of the stop tongues 42 and 43 which fits behind the rigidly bead is removable and is secured to the casing by mounted part 40 of the parting strip. When it is a bolt 14 and two plates 15 and 16 attached, redesired to swivel the upper sash, the sections 41 spectively, to the stop bead and the casing by are removed from both sides of the casing by liftscrews 17 and 18. These parts are plainly shown ing the sections and swinging the lower tongues 43 45 in Figs. '7 and 8. The plate 16 is provided with a out of engagement with the lower parts of the key hole slot 19 in which the bolt 14 slides. The parting strips. The upper sash may now be lowbolt is of a square cross-section below the head r d and pass d between t a s rly cto prevent it from turning in the slot. The plate p d y the Sections after which it is D 7 15 is provided with a straight slot 20 in which oted exactly as in the case of the lower sash, ex- 50 the other end of the bolt slides, and the bolt is cept that it is pivoted on the opposite side of the provided with a nut 21 for clamping the plates ap S0 as to Swing pp y to the lower sash. together. The chain 44, which passes over the pulley 45 re- When it is desired to swing the lower sash 12 mains attached to the sash while the opposite into the room, the stop beads 13 on both sides of chain is removed. the casing are removed by unloosening the nut' Reference is now had to Figs. 9 and 11, which 116 show a fragmental side view of either window sash and certain details used in connection with the sash chain. The chain 44 is accommodated in the customary groove 46, milled in the side of the sash, and is secured to the sash by means of an eye 47, which hooks on a hook 48 secured in the sash. A socket 49 is counterboarded across the groove 46 to house the spiral spring 50. The chain is inserted between the windings of the spring, so that it is firmly secured to the chain. The whole length is within the socket 49, so that it does not interfere with the raising and lowering of the sash, furthermore, a screw eye 51, for guiding the chain, is secured directly below the socket. When the chain is removed from the sash the spring 50 prevents the free end of the chain from being drawn through the pulley, as plainly shown in Fig. 4.
While I have described and illustrated the pivots and sockets as mounted on opposite sides of the apron, it is evident that the pivots may be secured on the same side of each sash, sothat one socket in the apron and one pawl on the window frame will sufiice. Likewise, the invention may be used with windows constructed of metal as well as of wood.
Having described my invention and its objects, what I claim as new and Wish to protect by Letters Patent is:
1. In combination with a window comprising a window frame, an upper and a lower sash, stop beads, parting strips and an apron; removable sections provided in the inner stop beads and in the parting strips, a pivot secured near one end of the lower frame of one sash, another pivot secured near the opposite end of the lower frame of the other sash, pockets provided at opposite ends of the apron, hinged pawls secured on opposite sides of the window frames under the removable stop beads and concealed thereby, a pivot associated with each of said pawls, and socket secured in the upper frames of the sashes axially aligned with the sockets in the lower frames so that the sashes may be hinged on opposite sides of the window frame and swung inwardly from this frame.
2. In combination with a window comprising a window frame, and upper and a lower sash slidingly mounted by means of counterweighted cords or chains, stop beads, parting strips and an apron; removable sections provided in the inner stop beads and in the parting strips, a pivot secured near one end of the lower frame of one sash, another pivot secured near the opposite end of the lower frame of the other sash, pockets provided at opposite ends of the apron, hinged pawls secured on opposite sides of the window frames under the removable stop beads and concealed thereby, a pivot associated with each of said pawls, socket secured in the upper frames of the sashes axially aligned with the sockets in the lower frames so that the sashes may be hinged on opposite sides of the window frame and swung inwardly from this frame, and means attached to said cords or chains and concealed in sockets formed in the sides of the sashes for supporting the counterweights when the cords or chains are detached from the sashes.
