l UNITED STATESv EDWARD DAYTON RooKwELL,
PATENT OFFICE.
OF JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA.
SASH-FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No; 352,099, dated November 2, 1886.
Application filed August 7, 1886.
To LZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD DAYToN'RocK- WELL, a citizen 'of the United States, residing at Jacksonville, in the county of Duval and State of Florida,have invented a new and useful Improvement in Sash-Holders, of which the following is a specification. l
My 'invention relates to improvements in f sash locks and holders; and it consists of the scratching or defaciugv the painted or otherwise ornamented surface of window frames or stops, to which windows the device may be applied. f
In the' accompanying drawings,which illustrate a sash holder and lock embodying my invention, Figure l is a side .view showing it adjusted as a lock; and Fig. 2 is a like view,
. showing a modified form o'fbase-plate. Fig.
3 is another view, showing the swinging arm reversed to adapt the device forv use asa sashholder.- Figs. l4,5, and 6 are views,.in side elevation, of my vimproved sash-holder, illustrating modied forms ,of base-plates. Figs. 7 and 8 are side views of another form of my invention,showingit applied tov a horizontally-sliding sash. Fig. 9 isa detail view ofthe base-plate shown inFig. 1. Fig. l is a like l inclusive, the basefplate is provided'with the view of the base-plate shown in Fig. 5. Fig. 11 is an edge view of the device shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 12 is an edge view of the device shown in Fig. 5.
Referring to the drawings, in which like letters of reference denote corresponding parts in all the figures, A designates a base-plate having shoulders a a; B, a swinging arm permanentlyeonnected to the plate, and C a'stopcasting affixed to the window frame or casing, and either end of the swinging arm is adapted to come in contact with one of the curved faces thereof, so as to adapt the device for locking the sash or holdingit in an elevated position. Referring more particularly to Figs. lto 3,
Serial No. 210,340. (No model.)
metal, and near its edges it is provided with two or more transverse openings, a2, which have beveled sides, through which are passed the screws that secure the base-plate to the window, the heads of ,the screws entering the countersunk openings, so that they lie flush with the outer face ef the base-plate, and are thereby arranged out of the path of the swing,
ing arm B, to permit the latter to oscillate or turn freely on its pivot. Y
` The swinging arm B is permanently attached 4to thebase-plate by means of a headed or other pin, c, which passes through a suitable opening in the arm and the plate; and the and terminates in a point, c, while the upper end is enlarged and curved outwardly, so that the upper side lis arranged out of line with the tapered lower end, as clearly shown in Fig. ll, thereby providing a finger piece, against Whichthe lingers are pressed to turn or shift the arm on its pivot, and. thus throw either one end or the other nearer to the win dow-frame. upper end of the swinging arm 'is curved `inwardly and downwardly, as shown, to form the curved ears ci, the outer one at the upper eorner'being adapted to take under an out- 'lower end of the arm is tapered longitudinally The upper edge of the enlarged wardly-bulged shoulder, e, on the xed stop C, in order to adapt the device as a lock for the sash, to prevent movement or play thereof.
The stop C is also castor formed of a single piece of metal, andl its outwardly-bulged shoulder e has a gradually-inclined side, e', and an abrupt side, e2, which is arranged at an obtuse angle to the inclined side e', as clearly' shown.
The base-plate A and the stop C are each provided with two or more transverse openings or perforations, a2, through which arev passed suitable securing or fasteningscrews,
lto afx the device in proper position to/the sash and frame of a window, and by this means the device can be easily and 'quickly IOO applied by an unskilled person to the-sash and frame.
The base-plate can be of preferred form, and v in the several figures I have shown different shapes, the one shown in Figs. l and 9 being circular, while the plate shownin Figs. 2 and 3 is square, or substantially so.
In applying my improved device upon a window for use, I first affix two or more ofthe Stops C to the frame, olie heilig located near the base or sill of the window, with the abrupt side of its shoulder lowermost, andthe others at points on the frame above the lower stop at the points where it is desired to elevate the window-sash, and with their abrupt sides cIl uppermost. The base-plate and its attached arm are now applied to the sash at any suitable point thereon, preferably near the lower edge, so that the end, whether the upper or lower end, nearer to the frame will not come in contact with the frame to injure or deface the painted or otherwise ornamented surface thereof. rlhe ends of the arms are prevented from coming inrcontact with the painted surface of the frame by the sides thereof coming in contact with the offsets or shoulders 011 said plate, and are held in contact therewith by the heavier upper end ofthe swinging arm. Thus it will be seen that when the device is adjusted for use as a sash-lock (shown in Fig. l) the upper counterweighted or heavier end of the swinging arm is turned outwardly,so that it is nearer to the lower stop C, and its outer upper ear, ci, will take beneath the abrupt shoulder on the said stop; and in this position the inner side of the lower pointed end ofthe arm will impinge or bear against the lower side of the shoulder a', while the' outer side of the upper heavier end will bear or impinge upon the upper side of the shoulder a. By thus disposing the arm with relation to the shoulders on the base-plate so that its opposite sides are in contact with the shoulders or offsets, the swinging arm is very materially braced, and is better calculated to resist the strain and force exerted on the windowsash when a burglary is attempted, and thus provides a stronger and more eiiieient lock.
When the device isladapted for service as a sash-holder, the position of the swinging arm is reversed from the position shown in Fig. l to that shown in Fig. 2. In this lat-ter figure (2) the heavier upper end of the arm is forced to one side away from the frame, and the lower pointed end is forced nearer to the frame, and the outer side of the lower pointed end ofthe arm is in contact with the under side of the Stop-shoulder a, while the inner sideof the upper heavier end impinges upon the upper side of the offset a, the lower pointed end of the arm taking against the abrupt upper side of the shoulder on the stop Glocatcd on the frame at the point where it is desired to maintain the sash in an elevated position.
In operation the swinging arm is reversed or thrown from beneath the shoulder in order to release the window to raise the latter, and
end passes it, when it willl take upon the abrupt side of the said shoulder and retain the sash in an elevated position. To lower the sash the swinging arm is iirst reversed to throw its pointed end away from the stop, and when the heavier end ofthe arm impinges against the inclined side e' of the lower stop the arm will be oscillated or thrown to nearly a vertical positionuntil the heavier end passes the shoulder, when said end will automatically drop beneath the abrupt side of the shoulder to lock the sash.
It will thus be seen that after the swinging arm has been once adjusted to raise or lower the sash it does not require further manipulation on the part of the operator, but will automatically engage with the stop, and thus leave both ofthe operators hands free to raise or adjust the sash; and, further, that the ends of said armare prevented 'from scraping and defaeing the painted surface of the -frame while they are passing up or down between the stops that are fastened tothe window-frame, before referred to.
In Figs. 4, 5, 6,10, and l2, inclusive, I have shown other forms of devices contemplated by my invention. The base-plates are eut away on their lower sides to form the shoulders to c on opposite sides of the arm, and the arm has a stud or lug, g, which projects or works on the cut-out portion of the base-plate, and is adapted to alternately come in contact with the said shoulders, to limit the movement of the arm in either direction. The operation of these devices is substantially the same as the device shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.
In Figs. 7 and 8 I have shown niyinvention adapted to lock a horizontally moving or sliding sash. rlhe base-plate is affixed to the sash so that the arm lies ina horizontal position, and the heavier end thereof drops down below the center, so that it is adapted to take behind the abrupt side of the shoulder on the ICO stop to lock the sash against movement in one direction, the upper shoulder, c', on the baseplate serving to limit the movement of the arm, so that the lower side of the heavier end will be held from contact with the painted surface of the sill, to prevent scratching the same.
I attach especial importance to the baseplate having the offsets or shoulders, combined with a swinging arm piv'oted to the base-plate between the shoulders thereon, as therein lies the gist of my invention.
In lieu of the stops C, a screw, nail, or other equivalent device may be used; but I prefer to employ the stop in the form shown, as it provides a neat and ornamental fixture, and adapts the arm to ride freely over it in adjusting the sash. y fV Slight changes in the form and proportion of parts can be made without departing from the principle of my invention, also, when space between the window-sash and inside' added to the heavy end of the swinging arm,
thereby utilizing the end of said arm as a liftl for perpendicular and a pull or draw handle t for horizontally-moving sashes 5` Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secureby Letters Patent, is
A sash holder and look consisting of a baseplate having the stop-shoulders a a', a swing- In ing arm pivoted centrally to the base-plate, between the stop shoulders thereof, and normally in Contact therewith, and having van enlarged end, and a lfixed stop, against which the ends of the swinging arm impinge, substantially asdeseriloed, for the purpose s et 1,5 forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereunto aixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
