THOMAS FRY, OF BROOKLYN, NEW' YORK.
HANGING 'wlnnow-sasn Specification of Letters Patent No. 28,267, dated May 15, 1860.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS FRY, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and use ful Improvement in Hanging WVindow- Sashes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure l, is a front view and partial section of the window frame and sash; Fig. 2, a vertical cross section; Fig. 3, a horizontal cross section; Fig. 4:, a section of a portion of the sash on one enlarged scale; Figs. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10, represent a modification of the device represented in the former figures.
Similar characters of reference, in each of the several figures indicate corresponding parts.
The nature of my invention consists, first, in arranging that character of window sashes which can be swung into a horizontal or oblique position, in such a manner that the sash while it turns, is tightened laterally, so as to remain in a horizontal or oblique position.
It consists, second, in providing. the sash frame in the manner described with a spring strip which has a recess for the reception of the sash when in an oblique position, said strip answering the double purpose of stop and weather strip.
To enable others, skilled in the art, to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
The window sashes Z), Z), can be moved up and down as usual in vertical grooves 1, 2, 3, 4, in the window frame a? (see Fig. The two sashes are separated by two weather strips 11., a, which fit loosely into vertical grooves 5, 5, in the window-frame :11. Indiarubber or other springs "v, are attached at one end to the weather strip and at the other to a part of the window frame as seen in Fig. 1, so as to keep the weather strips in the position represented in Fig. l, resting against the side of the part 2 of the window frame. The weather strips can be pressed back into the grooves 5, by any force sufficient to overcome the tension of the springs '0.
Each of the two sides of the sash is made of two pieces a, a, which are connected by a male screw it, (projecting from a plate 0, which is attached to the piece a, by screws (Z,) taking into a female screw in the plate 2', which latter is attached to the piece a, by screws f. The screw h, reaches into a hole j, in the piece a. The width of piece a, is such that it projects not quite as far from the window frame as the weather strip a. Thus it will be seen the sash can be moved up and down but it cannot be swung on the fulcrum (consisting of the devices It, i, 0, above described) before the weather strips have been pressed back into their grooves 5, 5.
The two screws lb, h, on which the sash is hung are, one a right, the other a left screw, so that on swinging the sash around after the weather strips have been pressed into their grooves so as to be out of the way both screws h, 72., will screw into their female screws in the plates 2', and thus serve to draw the pieces a, a, tight against the sides of the sash, while it approaches a horizontal or an oblique position, as represented in Fig. 2. The object of thus tightening the sash while in a horizontal or inclined position is to prevent its swinging back, which it would be apt to do if not very exactly balanced on its fulcrum. Perchance it might swing back with a force sufiicient to break the panes. The device above described is intended to prevent such accidents.
The sash when in a horizontal or oblique position may be moved up or down until one of its sides takes into the recess t, in one of the weather strips, which will allow the springs o, to draw the weather strip out of its groove a distance equal to the depth of the recess 2?. The sash will thus be confined in a suspended position convenient for washing and cleaning the pane or for the purpose of admitting air into the room.
Another device for tightening the sash while being swung into a horizontal or oblique position is represented as attached to the other sash. The sides of this sash are also made of two pieces Z, Z, similar to the pieces a, a. The two pieces Z, Z, are connected by a fulcrum pin 0, on which turns a plate a, which is fastened to the piece Z and rests against a plate a, fastened to the piece Z. These plates are made with flat faces m, m, and a, n, and the plate m, has a projection or projections s, s, whichfit into corresponding recesses s, s, in the plate 12, when the sash is in a vertical position. On turning the sash, the projections s, s, rise out of the recesses s, s, and come to rest against the flat faces a, n, of the plate a, thereby tightening the sash between the two pieces I, Z, for the 2. Providing the-sash frame in the manner purposes above set fort described with a spring strip which has a lVhat I claim as my invention and desire recess for the reception of the sash when in to secure by Letters Patent, is an oblique position, said strip answering the 5 1.
