Description
Jan-.12, 1943. a; A. GRAU PROJECTED WINDOW Filed Feb, 19, 1940 I INVENTOR. GEORGE A. GRAU.
Patented Jan. 12, 1943 mm STATES FFMIE 4 Claims.
This invention relates to a window having a portion or all of the window projecting outwardly from the sash to provide outside the normal plane of the sash space for flowers or other ornamen-a tal articles.
I am aware that various bays have been created for attachment to the frame of the window, but the main object of my invention is to form a bay as an integral unit having a marginal flange received in the usual glass receiving recesses in the sash, whereby the bay becomes an integral part of the window.
A further object is to provide shelves within the bay to support flowers or other ornamental articles.
A still further object is to provide the bay with a frame to match the vertical and horizontal mtmtins of the window.
My invention will be further readily under stood from the following description and claims,
and from the drawing, in which latter;
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of one form of my improved window.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a single bay of wider proportions.
Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-sectional view of the projected window, taken in the plane of the line 33 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged horizontal cross-sectional view of the same, taken in the plane of the line 44 of Fig. 1, and;
Fig. 5 is a detail section, taken in the plane of the line 5-5 of Fig. 3.
My improved projected window is arranged to be attached to the sash H of a window in the same manner as the normal panes of glass are attached, although if desired the projecting marginal flange I2 of the bay may be bolted to the sash.
While the bay is designed primarily for use with metal windows, it can equally well be used with wood or other window sash. It lends itself particularly well to the metal sash, in that metal sash usually has one or more stationary portions, with the other portions being hinged vertically to permit opening the window.
My unit bay may be attached to either the stationary or the movable sash. The bay comprises a skeleton frame l3 having recesses M for the reception of panes of glass 15 or other sheets of material to completely enclose the bay. The upper section [6 or sections of the bay are preferably inclined downwardly to enhance the appearance and deflect external precipitation. While I have shown the bottom I! of the bay of metal this may also be of glass. The sides is of the bay are preferably angularly positioned whereby each section of the side and front will have a like area of glass, therefore narrow bays will be as shown in Fig. 1 and where the bay encompasses several sections it will be as shown in Fig. 2, with vertical muntins added.
The intermediate cross members or muntins [9 of the frame I3 are provided with inwardly eX- tending flanges 20 with the inner ends 2| turned upwardly to support and position shelves 22 thereon.
The projecting flange I2 is secured to the frame l3 and the complete unit can be easily set into the window sash and thus becomes an integral part of the window with added space for ornaments and flowers which do not interfere with internal screens, Venetian blinds or other internal decorations.
When the bay is attached to a movable window, it merely limits the outward swing of the window and in the case of vertically movable windows it can be attached to the upper section, which is outside the plane of movement of the lower window.
While I have shown two embodiments of my invention, it will be apparent that the bay may be constructed of any size or shape to match the particular window in which it is desired to form the bay.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In combination with a rabbeted window sash, a projected window comprising a skeleton frame, a base for said frame, intermediate muntins in said frame forming angular side portions and a downwardly inclined upper portion, means for securing panels in said frame, and a marginal flange extending from and about the entire periphery of said frame secured in the rabbet of said window sash.
2. In combination with a rabbeted window sash, a projected window comprising a, skeleton frame, a base for said frame, intermediate muntins in said frame forming angular side portions and a downwardly inclined upper portion, inserts between said muntins and said frame, a marginal flange extending from and about the entire periphery of said frame secured in the rabbet of said Window sash, and shelves positioned in said frame.
3. In combination with a rabbeted window sash, a projected window comprising a skeleton frame, a base for said frame, intermediate muntins in said frame forming angular side portions and a downwardly inclined upper portion, said frame and muntins provided with glass receiving recesses, panes of glass inserted in said recesses, a marginal flange extending from and about the entire periphery of said frame secured in the rabbet of said window sash.
4. In combination with a rabbeted window sash, a unit structure forming a projected bay comprising vertical and horizontal muntins, a marginal flange extending from and about the entire periphery of said structure secured in the rabbet of said window sash whereby said bay becomes an integral part of said window, said horizontal muntins provided with inwardly ex tending flanges and shelves supported on said last named flanges.
