Application July 6, 1953, Serial No. 366,173 4 Claims. (Cl. 189--=75) This invention relates to a metal surround for windows and the like and which surround includes the sill.
In windows, and particularly metal casement windows, it is customary to use a surround or frame comprising a headpiece, the jambpiece and sill pins, each having a channel portion extending longitudinally thereof and directed outwardly, into which is fitted and secured a web of the sash. This surround is intended to fit over the header, rough sill and jambs, trimmers or studs defining the window opening. The sash including the surround thereon can quickly be installed, since the head-[- piece, jambpieces and sillpiece of the surround each include a plate integral with the channel portion that is adapted to be nailed to the header, trimmers and rough sill, after which stucco or rustic may be applied to cover the plate that is secured to each of the above mentioned rough members that define the window opening.
Heretofore, such surrounds have either positioned the channel portion of the surround elements so they will interfere with the header, trimmers or rough sill or else out requiring any modification thereof, and which also is formed so that no modification of rustic is required when the latter is positioned around such opening and over a portion of the surround.
alter the header, trimmers and rough sill that define the window opening nor alter the exterior wall covering that extends over portions of the surround. Other objects and advantages will appear inthe description and in the drawings.
In the drawings, Fig. 1 is a greatly reduced elevational view of a surround.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view taken along line 2 -2 of Fig. 1 and which view shows part of the headpiece, header, rustic and part of the sash of a casement window.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional view taken along line 3-3 of Fig. 1 showing a trimmer of the window opening, the jambpiece of this invention, and part of the casement sash.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged sectional view taken along line 4-4 of Fig. 1 showing the sillpiece, the rough sill of the window opening, rustic trim, and part of the case ment sash.
.In detail, the headpiece of the present invention is generally designated 1, the jambpieces 2, and the sillpiece 3. These are joined at their ends in any suitable In other Words, by the present invention, it is not necessary for the workman to extending into channel portion 10.
Zjdllfil Faten'ted Apr. 17, 1956 manner to provide a rectangular frame 'in which the headpiece and sillpiece are in horizontally extending parallel, vertically spaced relationship and the jambpieces are vertical and connect the corresponding ends of the headpiece and sillpiece.
Referring to Figs. 2, 3, 4, the window opening is usually formed by rough 2 inch by 4 inch pieces, the header being designated 4, the trimmers 5 and the rough sill 6. A stool 7 is normally positioned over the rough sill as indicated in Fig. 4.
The metal sash of the casement window has a coplanar flange that is continuous around the sash and therefore the surround is formed to provide a continuous inwardly directed or inwardly opening channel to receive the flange of the easement window.
In the headpiece 1 of Fig. 2, this channel portion is indicated generally at 10, and it connects with the portion 11 of each jambpiece (Fig. 3) and the ends of channel portions 11 of the jambpieces connect with the ends of the channel portion 12 of the sillpiece.
In Fig. 1 the flange 13 of the easement sash is shown In Fig. 2, the flange 14 of the easement sash is shown extending into channel portion 11 and in Fig. 3 the flange 15 of the easement sash is shown extending into the channel portion 12.
For purpose of identification, the sidewall of each channel portion that is at the room side of the surround will be called the inner side and the outer side wall of each channel portion will be the outer side. Inasmuch as the surround is outside the header, trimmers and rough sill, the inner sides of each channel portion will be the sides that are nearest such header, trimmers and rough sill.
The headpiece 1 of the surround has a vertically disposed faceplate 17 that extends horizontally from end to end of the headpiece, and this plate. 17 is coplanar with the inner side 18 of the channel portion it Thus the face plate and the inner side of the channel portion are adapted to be positioned fiat against the header 4.
The jambpieces 2 are each provided with a vertically disposed face plate 19 that is coplanar with the inner side 20 of the channel portion 11, therefore the face plate 19 and inner side 19 of the jambpieces can be positioned sill are flush along their edges.
inner sides 18, 2t 22 of the channel portions 10, 11, 12
are coplanar and are adapted to lie flat against the members defining the window opening without requiring alteration of said members.
The word outward or outwardly as used herein refers to direction relative to the wall of the building that is adapted to carry the surround, the outer side being the side opposite the room side.
Joining the face plate 17 of the headpiece at almost right angles thereto is an angularly outwardly extending head flange 25, and the portion of this flange along its juncture with the face plate defines the bottom 26 of the channel portion 10, said bottom being the portion of flange 25 that is along the juncture of the flange with the face plate.
The jambpieces 2 have substantially the same structure as the headpiece, there being a flange 2'7 joining face plate 19. The bottom 28 of the channel portion 11 is the portion of flange 27 that adjoins the face plate.
The sillpiece 3 is substantially the same structure asthe headpiece in that flange 29 extends angularly from 3 the face plate 19, and bottom wall 30 of the channel portion '12 is the portion of the flange that adjoins the face plate.
By the foregoing .structure, rustic siding 4.0 or other outside wall structure can be placed directly over .the outer sides of the face plates, and in abutting relation to the flanges 25, 27, 29 without modifying the rustic siding or walls in the slightest degree. Obviously, in stucco faced walls the stuccowould replace the rustic. The fact that there is no obstruction along the outer sides of the face plates and flanges 25, 27 and 29' to the rustic siding or other panel or wall structure freely entering the corner defined by said face plates and flanges that enables the siding to be fitted around the surround without modifying the siding, and the fact that the face plates and sides 18, .20, 21 are coplanar enables the face plates to fit flat against the headers, trimmers and rough sill of the window opening without altering them.
As already mentioned, heretofore it has been necessary to charnfer the siding or the pieces forming the Window opening in order to properly fit rustic siding to the surround or in order to properly position the surround around the window opening. With the present structure this difliculty is eliminated.
Reducing the structure of the headpiece, jambpieces and sillpiece to a general broad description common to all, it is seen that each part of the surround comprises an angle strip, one leg of which provides a face plate and the other leg of which provides a flange extending at an angle thereto, and an outwardly opening channel portion for receiving part of the window is provided along the flange at its juncture with the face plate with the bottom of said channel portion being part of the flange and in continuation thereof and with one .side of said channel portion being a continuation of said face plate past the juncture between the flange and face plate, and with the other side projecting from said flange at a point between said one side and the free outer edge of the flange.
