YNo. 402,911. Patented May 7, 1889.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
VILLIAM II. ELLIOT, OF BROOKLYN, NET YORK.
WINDOW-FIXTU RE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 402,911, dated May 7, 1889. Application filed November 26, 1888. vSerial No. 291,944. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, l/VILLIAM l-I. ELLIOT, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved WVindow-Fixture, of which the following is a specification.
The object and nature of my invention may be described as follows:
The object of my invention is to make it practicable to remove from a window of the ordinary construction the upper or lower sash or sash-stops without moving or interfering with the shade-roller or roller-bracket, either for the purpose of repairing any of the xtures or of fitting new shades and rollers; and the nature of my invention consists in the introduction of a new fixture having functions which are fully set forth in the following specification and claims; and I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is au elevation of the left upper corner of a window-frame and having upon it all of the devices necessary to the movements of the sash and shade. Fig. 2 is an inside view of the same, showing the upper and lower sash in section. Fig. 3 is an elevation of my improved window-fixture. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 5 is a vertical section of the same at open lines x, Fig. 3. Fig. 6 is a horizontal section of the same at open lines Fig. 3. Fig. 7 is a horizontal section of the same at open lines 5c, Fig. 3.
My improved fixture refers to suoli windows as are opened and closed by a vertical movement of the sash, as shown in Fig. 2. The upper or outer sash, m, sliding between the ribs r and s, and the lower or inner sash, m', sliding' between the ribs i' and the side sashstops, e. These latter devices, as windows are now made, reach from the bottom to the top of the frame on the inside, and also across the top, as at c', and to the upper end of the side sash-stops the shade-roller brackets are usually fastened. Consequently when it becomes necessary to remove either sash for the purpose of repairing or replacing any of the fixtures, the roller-brackets, with the rollers and shades, have to be removed with them, which, sooner-or later, works a serious injury to the window frame and to the several fixtures thereon. To avoid such injury, I employ the fixture-block b. (Shown separately from the other devices in Figs. 8 and et.) This device is a block four to six inches in length, about three inches in width, and five-eighths of an inch in thickness, and permanently fixed by the screws o to the right and left upper corner of the frame in a vertical position independently of the sash-stops, as shown in Figs. l and 2.
This fixture exhibits the following combination of features, viz: It has upon it the bracket c, permanently fixed by the screws o', and the slot or recess d to make room forthe pulley and cord g and g and the stop u, this stop being the lower end of the fixture-block cut off square to receive the upper corner of the sash, so as to limit its upward movement at the right point to prevent the sash from in juring the shade. It also has the two bevels e and c". The former receives the ends of the horizontal 'sash-stop e', and the latter receives the upper ends of the side sash-stop, e, so as to hold the same in place.
The recess d, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, may be cut entirely through the block, or, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5, may be cut away sufficiently on the back of the block to provide the necessary room for the sash pulley and cord. Referring to the Figs. 1 and 2, the pulley gis pivoted to the wind ow-frame at c, which, with the cord g and a suitable weight, is the same as that usually used for balancing the sash.
To apply this invention, it is only necessary to cut off the upper ends of the side sash-stops, as at em; then put the new fixture in place in line therewith, and fasten it with screws o. These fixtures being accurately made by machinery to one exact gage, no fitting is re` quired, and no alteration of any part of the window is necessary except to cut the side sash-stops shorter, and no variation in sizes is needed except to accommodate the different thicknesses of sash.
To say nothing of rented houses, which from year to year are changing occupants, and as often changing window fixtures, shades, &c., new houses are equally benefited by the application of this invention, as the upper ends of the side sash-stops furnish no adequate support for the roller-braekets, while the brack- IOO,
ets on the new fixture once put in position remain fixed independently of the sash-stops, which latter device can be removed and replaced independently of the fixture -block Whatever kind of roller and shade may be employed.
These fixtures are supposed to be turned out complete by the manufacturer, as represented in Fig. 3, and sold to the consumer as a new and useful article of manufacture.
Referring` to Figs. 2, 3, C, and 7 it may be seen that the outer edges of the sash-stop c and e', and also the outer edge of the fixtureblock b, are rounded alike, and when put in place form a continuous bead across the top and down the sides of the Window, thereby producing a uniform finish. rlhere are many Windows of the kind described in which the balanced pulley is placed so far down from the top as to 2. In combination with a Window-frame having a vertically-sliding sash, a balaneing-cord and pulley pivoted thereto and constructed in the usual Way, a fixture-block, l), provided with a stop, u, on its lower end to limit the upward movement of the same, and a bracket, c, all substantially as specified.
3. In combination with a window-frame having a vertically-sliding sash, a balancing-cord and pulley pivoted thereto and constructed in the usual Way, a fixture-block, b, provided with a slot or recess, d, a stop, u, for the sash, and a bracket, c, fixed by suitable means upon said block, which is in turn supported by said frame, substantially as specified.
4C. As an article of manufacture, the fixtureblock l), shaped and constructed substantially as described, to be placed in the inner upper corner of a Window-frame in line with the guidesash stop independently thereof, and forming a continuous finish therewith, and to have its lower edges across the sashway to serve as a stop, and provided with -a window shade bracket fixed to its face.
