R. w. MOHRING SASH MOUNTING Filed Feb. 10, 1949 June 3, 1952 I N VEN TOR. fZoberf Wfia/zragg Patented June 3, 1952 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 7 Claims.
This invention relates to window constructions and is more particularly concerned with improvements in sash hanger and supporting devlces.
It is an object of the invention to provide an improved sash hanger construction which is particularly adapted for use in connection with the mounting in a window frame of a two-piece storm sash or the like.
It is a more specific object of the invention to provide a combination support and hanger means for use in mounting a storm sash of the type having separable upper and lower members wherein the upper sash member is supported and locked in position in the upper portion of the window frame while the lower sash member is readily removably supported in the lower portion of the window frame.
It is a still more specific object of the invention to provide a combination support and hanger device for use with a storm window having upper and lower sash which device comprises a base plate adapted to be attached to the window frame and having a ledge extending inwardly thereof for supporting the lower edge of the top sash and a hanger plate pivotally connected to the base plate and provided with a hook formation thereon which hanger plate is adapted to be swung into overlying relation with the lower margin of the upper sash for receiving a cooperating hook plate on the upper edge of the lower sash.
These and other objects of the invention will be apparent from a consideration of the window construction which is shown by way of illustration in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Fig. 1 is an elevation of a window having mounted therein a two-part storm sash and including a combination support and hanger device which incorporates the principles of the invention;
Fig. 2 is a vertical section taken generally on the lines 22 of Fig. 1, to an enlarged scale;
Fig. 3 is a detail transverse section taken generally on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is a detail elevation showing the support and hanger member in position on the window side frame for receiving the upper sash;
Fig. 5 is a detail view similar to Fig. 4 but showing the combination support and hanger member in position for receiving the lower sash member;
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the combination support and hanger member; and
Fig. '7 is a perspective view of the cooperating hanger member which is adapted to be secured on the top edge of the lower sash.
Referring to the drawings, there is illustrated a window frame construction comprising vertical or side frame members Ill, a header or top frame member II and a sill or bottom frame member I2. A storm window comprising upper and lower sash members I3 and I4 is positioned within the frame formed by the members I0, II and I2.
The top frame member II is provided with a pair of spring retainer plates I5 which are secured adjacent the .top corners thereof. The plates I5 project downwardly over the edge of the frame member II and. engage over the front face of the top rail I6 of the sash I3 and hold the top of the latter in position against outward movement.
A combination support and hanger device I9 is provided at each end of the lower cross bar 20 forming the bottom edge of the sash I3. Each support and hanger device IScomprises a base plate 2| which is attached to the inside of a ver-- tical frame member II] and a hanger plate 22 which is pivotally connected to the base plate 2|.
The base plate 2| is relatively flat and L-shaped with the long leg secured by screws or other fastening means 23 to the inside face of the vertical frame member I0 and the short leg extending outwardly of the frame. Thebase plate 2| is provided with a curved or generally S-shaped inwardly extending ledge or supporting flange 24 which extends from the lower edge of the short leg upwardly and inwardly and which is adapted to receive in supporting relation thereon the end of the correspondingly curved lower edge 25 of the cross rail 20 on the upper sash I3.
The hanger plate 22 is angle shaped with the shorter leg 26 thereof hingedly connected at its end edge to the outwardly projecting vertical edge of the short leg of the base plate 2|. The long leg 2! of the hanger plate 22 is provided with an upwardly extending hook formation which may be conveniently formed from the material of the plate as a punched-out tongue 28. The hanger plate 22 may be hinged to a closed position in which it extends inwardly of the frame member II] in overlapping relation with the end of the bottom rail 20 of the sash I3. In this position the hook formation 28 is adapted to extend outwardly and upwardly of the body of the hanger plate 22.
The lower sash I 4 is provided with a pair of plate-like hanger brackets 29 which are attached to the front face of the upper rail 30 adjacent the ends thereof. Each bracket 29 is provided with an offset portion 3| extending upwardly beyond the edge of the top rail 30 which is'apertured at 32. The surface of the upper edge 33 of the sash rail 30 is provided with a curvature corresponding to that of the ledge or flange formation 24 on the plate 2|. When the apertured portions 3| of the brackets 29 are posi tioned over the hook formations 28 on the hanger plates 22 the curved top edge 33 of the sash rail 30 engages beneath the ledge 24 as the sash M is pivoted into closed position. The brackets g9 cooperate with the hook formations 28 to support the sash l4 and hold it in closed position. A bottom latch device 34 of any conventional type may be provided'at the bottom of the sash H! for latching engagement with the sill l2 to prevent outward movement of the bottom of the sash I4.
In mounting a storm window of the character described thefplates 2} of the devices is are secured to the vertical frame members if! in proper position for supporting the top sash l3 with the hanger plate members 22 hinged outwardly of the frame members. The top sash l3 s is then positioned with the plates !5 engaging over the face of the rail l8 and pivoted into closed position (Figs. 2 and 4). Thereafter the plates 22 are swung to the closed position in overlapping relation with the ends of th'e bottom rai1 2!l of the upper sash it. The lower "sash It is then positioned with the brackets 29; engaging the hook formations 28 and thereafter swung into closed position in coplanar relation with the upper sash l3 and looked at the bottom by the latch member 3 3. The upper 'sa sh i3 is firmly held in closed position while ,the lower sash may be readily removed by releasing the catch 34 and pivoting the lower edge of the sash outwardly until the brackets may be disengagedfrom the hook formations 2g; If it is desired, the top sash may be thereafter removed by swinging the plates 22 laterally outwardly and then pivoting the sash I3 outwardly sufficiently to clear the ledge 24. In this manner the upper and lower sash may be manipulated or removed without removing the hanger and support devices.
The inwardly extending ledge 24 is shown in the illustrated device as curved or, S-shaped. .This ledge may be straight and extend horizontally or at an angle so long as it provides a supporting surface for the top sash. The catch 34 .may be replaced by a friction stay or the like.
While the invention has been illustrated as applied to a storm window, it will be understood that it is equally applicable to screens,
' stormsash and screen combinations or other similar window constructions. The particular details of construction referred to are to be taken as illustrative only and modifications thereof may be resorted to within the spirit of the invention. I claim V 1.
