J NEIL SASH WEIGHT 110mm.
Patented Aug. 15, 1893'.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN NEIL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
SASH-WEIGHT HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 503,291, dated August 15, 1893.
Application filed December 22. 1892. Serial No. 456,027. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN NEIL, of New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Sash WVeight Holders; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.
The object of myinvention is to provide an improved device for holding up the sashweight while the cord is being secured to the window-sash or removed therefrom and the latter is being placed in position or being taken out.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 shows a portion of a window frame in vertical section with the weight and cord and my improved holder in position. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the holder. Fig. 3 is a view of the same laid open. Fig. l is a section on the line sis-00 of Fig. 2, the dotted lines indicating the position of the lower member when the holder is clamped upon the cord.
In Fig. 1 is shown a window-frame a of usual construction, with a pulley h, sashweight 0 and cord d.
The holder is composed of two members a and f which are preferably connected at one edge by a hinge-joint g. The members are so formed that when they are brought together or nearly so, as in Fig. 2, one end of the holder shall be tapered in order that it may be inserted between the pulley and the frame and may bear firmly against both whether the aperture between them be large or small. Preferably each member is provided for this purpose with a tapered enlargement h. Interiorly each member is formed like a half-tube with transverse ribs 1', 'i, the ribs of the one member being oifset with respect to those of the other. For convenience in use I prefer to provide one member with a weighted latch j which is adapted to engage a hook 7.: on the other member. As shown, this latch is made of a single piece of wire bent to form a loop and having the two memhers coiled about a pin Z, the free end of the wire being bent at about a rightangle with the loop and extended sufiiciently to weight the latch in the desired manner.
In use the holder is placed upon the cord in the position shown in Fig. 1 and the fapered end is forced into 'the aperture between the pulley and the top of the slot in the frame, thereby clamping the cord firmly; then the weight 0 will tend to draw the holder farther in and the heavier the Weight the more firmly will the cord be clamped. The member e being then in the position shown in Fig. 4 and the memberf being in the position shown by the dotted lines in said figure the loop of the latch j, as shown, will straddle the hook 7t and will be held in its position by the extended ends of the wire. When the cord has been secured to the sash as desired a pull upon the cord will free theholder from the aperture above the pulley and the member f will swing down into the position shown in full lines in Fig. t where it will be caught by the latch. The holder will then slide down the cord into the hand instead of falling at random as it would if it were not provided with the latch.
As will be understood readily from the foregoing description my holder can be applied by one hand and will hold the weight without danger of slipping while at the same time it can be detached and the weight released simply by a pull upon the cord thereby avoiding the necessity of reaching up to release the cord from the holder by the hand.
I claim as my invention-- 1. A sash-weight holder composed of two members adapted to grasp the sash-cord and having a tapered end to be inserted between the sash-cord pulley and the frame, substan tially as shown and described.
2. A sash-weight holder composed of two members adapted to grasp the sash-cord and hinged together at one edge, each of said members having one end formed with a tapered enlargement, substantially as shown and described.
3. A sash-weight holder composed of two members adapted to grasp the sash-cord and hinged together at one edge and a latch upon one member adapted, to engage the other 7 member, substantially as shown and de-,
scribed.
4. A sash-Weight holder composed of two members adapted to grasp the sash-cord and hinged together at one edge, an overweighted looped latch carried by one member, and a 1' a hook carried by the other member to be en- JOHN NEIL.
