SCREEN AND STORM WINDQW Filed Feb. 19, 1945 INVENTOR. CHARLES PIC H/S ATTORNEY Patented Apr. 4, 1944 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICEv SCREEN AND STORM WINDOW Charles Rick, Highland Park, men. Application February 19, 1943, Serial No. 476.477
2 Claims.
My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in a screen and storm window and has for its object the provision of a structure the other, and so constructed that when the lower is removed, the upper will be retained in position and prevented from moving downwardly into the position of the lower.
Another object of the invention is the proision of a storm and screen window so con- Other objects of the invention will appear" hereinafter.
It is recognized that various modifications and changes may be made in the detail of structure illustrated, and it is intended that such variations and modifications shall be embraced within the scope of the claim which form a part hereof.
Forming a part of this specification is a drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a front elevational view of the invention.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary sideelevational view of the supporting frame used in the invention.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view slightly enlarged taken on line 3-4 of Fig. 1 with parts broken away.
Fig. 4 is a prospective view of the invention.
Fig". 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 6 is an enlarged sectional view taken on line 8-8 of Fig.1.
As shown in the drawing, I provide a supporting frame having oppositely disposed side rails 12 and I3 and oppositely disposed end rails a window casing and forms a permanent part of the building, so that it is not necessary to remove it and replace it at the various seasons. The thickness of the frame is such that it will seat in a window casing and bear against the blind stop so that it does not project outwardly beyond the outer edge of the casing an undesirable distance to mar or deface the appearance of the same.
Formed in the rail II is an opening it which may be closed by the swingable closure ll. This opening I8 is to permit water to escape from between the conventional window and the window or screen which is mounted in the supporting frame.
This supporting frame may be used as a mounting for either storm windows or screens, and
in Fig. 1 I have illustrated a window frame embodying the upper rail I8, the lower rail l9, and the side rails 20 and 2|. As clearly shown in Fig. 3. each of these rails comprises a pair of sections which are secured together and serve as a retainer for the pane of glass 2!. Each of the side rails of the window frame has a tongue 22 which overhangs the edge of the side rail 13 or II, as the case may be. Each of these side rails I 2 and II also has a tongue 22' which overhangs the side rails of the window frame which is slidabiy mounted in the supporting frame so that a sealing connection is thus presented for preventing drafts through the meeting faces of the window frame and the supporting frame. The upper rail I8 is provided with the upwardly projecting tongue 23 which is adapted to overlie the upper rail M, and this upper rail ll has the depending tongue 24 which overlie the upper rail 18. The lower rail of the window frame has a. depending tongue 25 overlapping the upwardly projecting tongue 28 on the upper rail W of the lower frame. The lower rail l9 of the lower frame has a tongue 21 which overlies the upwardly projecting tongue 28 on the lower rail l5.
Secured to the under surface 29 of the supporting frame rail I l is a jaw spring 30.
The construction is such that when the window frames are positioned in the supporting frame, they may be spread upwardly so as to flex the bow-shaped leaf spring 30 until th tongue 21 clears the tongue 28, whereupon the lower edge of the lower window frame may be swung inwardly to move downwardly into the position shown in Fig. 3, the spring 80 serving to maintain a close contact. The tongue 23 will, when the window I and ii. In use, this frame is mounted in frames areinthis position, overlie the lower edge of the'frame H; as shown in Fig. 3. It will be noted that the tongues 24, 25, and 21 serve as effective water sheds to deflect water so that seepv tance less than half the side thereof and half the length thereof. As shown in Fig. 4, the upper window frame is provided on its opposite sides with the groove 35 in which the tongues or rails 34 may engage. In inserting the window frames into the supporting frame, the upper frame is so positioned that the tongue or stop rail 34 engages in the groove 35 and the upper frame is then swung into position, as shown in Fig. 1, the lower frame being retained and swung outwardly as shown in Fig.4. When the upper frame moves upwardly to its limit, the lower frame may then be swung on the flexible connection into the position shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 3.
This construction is such as to provide a light and durable storm and screen window supporting frame which may be permanently mounted on the window casing and which would permit the removal of the window frames from the interior of the building, thus facilitating the washing and cleaning of these frames. The structure is also one in which a maximum protection against drafts is afforded.
What I claim as new is: 1
1. A construction of the class described, comprising: a supporting frame adapted for mounting in a window casing and embodying oppositely disposed side rails and oppositely disposed end rails; a pair of window frames slidably mounted in said supporting frame, one above the other, the upper window frame engaging at its lower side the uptongues on said engaging side of said window frames; an overlapping tongue on the upper rail of said supporting frame overlying the upper rail of the upper window frame; an upwardly projecting tongue on the upper of said window frames overlying the upper rail of said supporting frame; an upwardly projecting tongue on the lower rail of said supporting frame; a tongue on the lower rail of the lower of said window frames for engaging behind said last named tongue; 9. downwardly projecting tongue on the lower rail of said lower window frame overlying the upper edge of the lower rail of said supporting frame; and resilient means engageable with the upper side of the upper window frame for normally resisting upward movement of said window frames relatively to said supporting frames.
2. A construction of the class described, comprising: a supporting frame adapted for mounting in a window casing and embodying oppositely disposed side rails and oppositely disposed end rails; a pair of window frames slidably mounted in said supporting frame, one above the other. the upper window frame engaging at its lower side the upper side of the lower window frame; overlapping tongues on said engaging side of said window frames; an overlapping tongue on the upper rail of said supporting frame overlying the upper rail of the upper window frame; an upwardly projecting, tongue on the upper of said window frames overlying the upper rail of said supporting frame; an upwardly projecting tongue on the lower rail of said supporting frame; a tongue on the lower rail of the lower of said window frames for engaging behind said last named tongue; a downwardly projecting tongue on the lower rail of said lower window frame overlying the upper edge of the lower rail of said supportper side of the lower window frame; overlapping ing frame; resilient means engageable with the upper side of the upper window frame for normally resisting upward movement of said window frames relatively to said supporting frames; and a swingable connection for connecting adjacent sides of said window frames.
