WINDOW CONSTRUCTION Filed March 11, 1949 2 SHEETSSHEET 2 INVENTOR I BY I a I A ATTORNEYS Patented Dec. 23, 1952 UNITED STATES TENT QFFICE 1 Claim. 1
This invention relates to window construction designed primarily for use in connection with concrete building structures, the primary object of the invention being to provide a rectangular metal window frame which may be bolted to the building structure over the Window opening thereof, the frame providing a support for the screen and shutters of the building, which are hingedly connected thereto.
An important object of the invention is to provide a window frame which will extend beyond the outer surface of the wall of the buildin providing ample clearance for the swinging shutters and screens which close the sides and bottom of the window frame.
With the foregoing and other objects in view Which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claim, it being understood that changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of parts without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
Referring to the drawings:
Figure 1 is a front elevational view illustrating a window frame and window, constructed in accordance with the invention, as secured in position over the window opening of a building.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3-4 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken on line 3- of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 6 is a sectional view taken on line 65 of Fig. 1.
Fig. '7 is a fragmental sectional View through the window frame illustrating the sliding bolt used in holding the shutters closed.
Fig. 8 is a fragmental elevational view of the sliding bolt.
Fig. 9 is a fragmental perspective view illustrating the construction of the window frame.
Referring to the drawings in detail, the reference character 5 indicates the wall of a building and the reference character 6 indicates a ledge which extends outwardly from the building, directly over the window opening '5.
The window, forming the subject matter of the present invention, includes a rectangular metallic frame embodying lower side bars 8 v which are connected to the forward corner bars it, which forward corner bars extend upwardly throughout the length of the window opening, and have their upper ends connected by the bars [0, the rear ends of the bars 8 and bars Hl connecting with the bars H and i2 respectively, while the front ends of the bars 8 and Ill, connect with the front bars 13 and M. respectively.
As clearly shown by Fig. 9 of the drawings, these bars are all of angle bar construction and present inner flanges 15 around the inner side of the frame, and outer flanges It around the outer side of the frame.
In the construction of the building, which is of concrete formation, bolts H are embedded in the concrete with their threaded ends extended outwardly, there being provided one of such bolts at the top of the frame, and two or more bolts for connection with the vertical side bars of the frame.
The frame also includes front and rear vertical corner bars 18 the rear corner posts 18 being formed with openings that are so disposed that they will fall opposite to the bolts ll at the sides of the frame to receive the bolts, whereupon the nuts l9 are positioned to secure the frame in place.
The window pane which is used with the frame construction, is permanently secured within the flanges of the front corner bars 18, the window pane being indicated by the reference character 2B, the window pane being secured as by means of the putty indicated at 2|.
The reference character 22 indicates the side screens which are of sizes to close the side openings of the frame, the screens being mounted on the hinges 23 so that they swing inwardly to give access to the shutters 25 that hinge outwardly, and which are supported by the outer flanges of the frame.
Latch members 25 are provided for securing the screens in their closed positions, and the sliding bolts 26 are provided on the shutters 2% for securing the shutters in their closed positions.
The bottom of the frame is closed by means of the screen 21, which rests on the inner flanges l5 of the lower side bars 8, the screen being mounted on the hinges 28.
From the foregoing it will be seen that due to the construction shown and described, I have provided a rectangular metallic window frame which may be bolted to a building opposite a window opening providing a box-like structure, which is closed on its sides by means of the shutters 24, while the shutter 29 that swings 3 downwardly from the frame, closes the bottom of the frame.
If it is desired to provide ventilation, these shutters are swung to their open positions, leaving the screens as means for guarding the openin s of the window frame.
Having thus described the invention, What is claimed is:
A ventilated window construction for positioning under a ledge extending above a window opening, comprising a rectangular frame fitted over the window opening in contact with said ledge, including spaced vertical forward corner bars and horizontal front upper and lower bars, said bars being T-shaped in cross section providing outer and inner rectangular supporting flanges, upper and lower horizontal side angle bars connected at their outer ends to said forward corner bars, vertical rear corner bars constructed of angle bar material connected with the upper and lower horizontal side bars, with the open sides of said angle bars disposed inwardly, a window pane mounted within the outer rectangular supporting flanges, and screens 4 hingedly mounted on the inner supporting flanges and engaging the upper and lower side bars and said rear corner bars.
