ALBERT AYERS, OF RAHWAY, ASSIGNOE TO HIMSELF, AND \VILLIAM R. WILSON, OF ELIZABETH, NEW JERSEY.

SASH FRAME, HOLDER, AND CASING FOR CARRIAGES, CARS, AND OTHER USES.

SPEGIPIOATIQN forming part of Letters Patent No. 332,180, dated December 8, 1885.

Application filed September 30, 1885. Serial No. 178,633.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, ALBERT AYERS, of Rahway, in the county of Union and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Sash Frames, Holders, and Casings for Carriages, Cars, and other Uses, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying Io drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.

Figure l is an elevation, partly in section, of a carriagedoor to which my improvement I 5 has been applied. Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of the same, taken through the line .90 00, Fig. 1, the sash being removed. Fig. 3 is an edge elevation of the sash. Fig. 4c is a sectional plan view of a part of the frame, taken through the line 9 3/, Fig. 2, and of the sash,

taken through the line 2 z, Fig. 3.

The object of this invention is to provide sash frames, holders, and casings for carriages, cars, and other uses, constructed in such a manner that the sashes will be kept from rubbing or rattling, and will be held securely in every position into which they may be adjusted.

The invention consists in the combination,

with the frame or casing having a curved groove provided with a throw-over in the bottom of its throw-over sash-groove, of a sash-frame provided with spring friction-holders, as will be hereinafter fully described and 5 then claimed.

A represents the frame of a carriage-door, which is provided with asash-groove, B, having a throw-over or shoulder, O, to support the sash-frame D when raised. To the upper 0 and lower parts of the side edges of the sashframe D are attached my spring friction-holders E, for which Letters Patent were allowed (No model.)

August 3, 1885, on application No. 170,362, filed July 1, 1885. In the bottoms of the sashgrooves B are formed grooves F,to receive the holders E, and through which the said holders E slide up and down. ThegroovesF are made with a throw-over, G, alittle above the throwover 0 of the sashgroove B, for the lower holder E to move into when the lower edge of the sash-frame D is pushed out into the said throw-over G.

The part of the groove F below the throwover G is made with a curve, asshown in Fig. 2, and the part of the said groove F above the said throw-over is made with a lesser curve, so that the two holders E can move freely along the said groove as the sash-frame D passes up and down between its upper and lower positions, and the sash will be kept from binding during its movement and in every position into which it may be adjusted.

I have shown and described the invention as applied to carriage-doors, but do not limit myself to that use, as it can be applied to carwindows and to other windows and blinds hav ing an upand-d0wn movement, and provided with a throw-over.

Having thus fully described my invention, I claim new and desire to secure by Letters Patent The combination, with the frame or casing A, having a curved groove, F, provided with a throw-over, G, in the bottom of its throwover sash-groove B, ofa sash-frame, D, provided with spring fliGlllOll-hOldGlS E, sliding in the said grooves F, substantially as herein shown and described, whereby the sash will be kept from rattling and rubbing, and will be held securely in any position, as set forth. So

ALBERT AYERS.
