3 Claims. (c1. 16 172) This invention relates to animproved supporting device or hanger for storm sash, window screens, and the like. More particularly the invention is concerned with an improved hanger for non-sliding storm sash or window screens, which cover the entire area of a window frame, which hanger will facilitate the positioning of the sash from the interior of a building with safety, thereby avoiding the use of ladders and the like. These, therefore, are the general objects of the present invention.
Many types of devices are now in use for supporting and hanging storm, sash, window screens, and the like. Most of these devices are adapted for hanging the screen or sash from the exterior of the building. However, some few devices are arranged to permit the hanging of the sash from the interior of the building. These, however, present serious difliculties in that the bottom of the sash has to be swung outwardly to permit the sash to be positioned on the hangers. This, together with the comparatively great weight of the storm sash, renders it unsafe or dangerous to attempt the hanging of the sash from the interior of the building and, accordingly,- the use of ladders is resorted to as a matter of safety.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved sash hanger which will facilitate the hanging of the storm sash or the like from the interior of the building, and which hanger will be so constructed and arranged as to permit the sash to be safely placed on the hanger with substantially no tilting of the sash.
Another object of this invention is to provide an improved sash support or hanger of comparatively great strength which may be eco-' nomically manufactured, readily installed, and which will facilitate the positioning of the sash from the interior of the building with safety.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will become more apparent from the following description, reference being had to a preferred embodiment of the invention as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The essential and novel features of the invention will be summarized in the claims.
In the drawings, Fig. 1 is a view of a window frame illustrating a storm sash supported by my improved supports or hangers; Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary view of a hanger and the cooperating parts; Fig. 3 is a sectional view as indicated by the lines 3--3 on Fig. 2; Fig, 4 is a sectional detail, the plane of the section being indicated by the lines 4-4 on Fig. 3; Fig. 5 is a sectional detail as indicated by the lines 5-5 a bottom view of an imthe sash ll adjacent its upper edge, by suitable screws 14. The hanger members I2 may com-- prise the usual structure, such as for instance, a metal stamping having a portion l5 projecting upward above the sash and provided with a rectangular opening [6.-
The coacting hanger or bracket 20 member comprises in general a shank or arm 2| which is secured to the window frame II] as by screws 22. As illustrated in Fig. 3, the shank 2| is of such length that the hanger member l2 of the sash H may be hung thereon with the sash in a vertical position and at such distance from the face of the window frame as not to interfere with the hanging of the'sash from the interior of the building and to admit such hanging without tilting or swinging the lower end of the sash outwardly.
The hanger bracket 20, with which this invention is particularly concerned, is a sheet metal member comprising an inverted U-shap'ed tapered shank 2| having a substantially horizontal top wall 23 which, at its outer end, tapers upwardly as at .24 to prevent the sash from slipping off while applying the same. The inner end of the shank has a downwardly curved surface 25 terminating in a notch or recess 26 which forms a seat for the hanger member l2.
The transverse curvature of the top wall 23 of the bracket member, together with the taper of the shank 2|, greatly facilitates the positioning of the hangers I2 thereon. The side walls 21 of the bracket provide downwardly projecting reinforcing flanges which extend rearwardly beyond the top wall, as at 28, and have their inner portions bent outwardly at right angles, as at 29, to form a pair of oppositely extending attaching ears 30. These ears are provided with openings 3| to receive the screws 22 heretofore mentioned. The metal adjacent the openings 3| may be provided with reinforcing bosses, such as shown at I! in Fig. 2 in connection with the hanger member I 2. The notches 26 are formed in the upper surfaces of the walls 28 and provide a pair of spaced seats for the lower hanger member I2.
In positioning the screen or storm sash on the bracket 20, the hanger I2 is first inserted and then slipped over the bracket 20. The taper of the bracket arm 21, together with the transverse curvature of its upper surface 23, greatly facilitates this positioning of the screen. Likewise it will be seen that the structure is designed to provide sufficient strength to allow the weight of the sash to be supported entirely by the brackets during the application of the sash and thereby lighten the work of the person installing the sash. The transversely curved portion 2! of the bracket 20 terminates before the sash hanger reaches its seat and the hanger I2 is then supported by a pair of spaced surfaces which assist in preventing vibration of the sash after it has been positioned.
I claim:
1. A hanger bracket comprising, a pair of supporting base portions spaced apart and adapted to be fastened in a vertical plane to a supporting structure, a shank of modified U-shaped channel formation opening downwardly, said shank adjacent the base portions extending upwardly and outwardly away from said base portions and terminating in an upturned lip at the outer end thereof, and notches in said shank near said base portions defining aligned supporting seats.
2. A hanger bracket comprising, a pair of supporting base portions spaced apart and adapted to be fastened in a vertical plane to a supporting structure, a shank of modified U-shaped channel formation opening downwardly and providing a pair of side walls and an arcuate top wall joining said side walls, said shank adjacent the base portions extending upwardly and outwardly away 4 from said base portions with the top wall terminating in an upturned lip at the outer end thereof, and notches in said shank near said base portions defining aligned supporting seats, said side walls tapering from a point near the base portions to the outer end of the shank.
3. A hanger bracket comprising, a pair of supporting base portions spaced apart and adapted to be fastened in a vertical plane to a supporting structure, a shank of modified U-shaped channel formation opening downwardly and providing a pair of converging side walls and an arcuate top wall terminating short of said base portions and joining said side walls, said shank adjacent the base portions extending upwardly and outwardly away from said base portions with the top wall terminating in an upturned lip at the outer end thereof, and notches in said shank near said base portions defining aligned supporting seats, said side walls tapering from a point near the base portions to the outer end of the shank.
