MEANS FOR SECURING GLASS IN SASHES OF WINDOWS, 80C.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 595,136, dated December '7, 1897.
Application filed June 23, 1897. Serial No. 641,909. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM J. BEBE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Vellington, in the county of Sumner and State of Kansas, have invented new and useful Improvements in Means for Securing Glass in Sashes of Windows and the Like, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in means for securing glass panes in the sashes of windows, transoms, doors, and the like.
The invention is applicable in all places where it may be desirable to secure a pane of glass in a sash or other frame in such manner that it may be easily applied thereto and removed therefrom.
The invention has for its object to provide a novel means for securing panes of glass in sashes or frames in such manner that if the glass becomes broken it may be readily re moved or removed for other reasons and anot-her glass substituted therefor.
In the use of my invention the glass may be readily applied to a sash securely without the use of putty, tacks, or other means of fastening difficult of removal.
To these ends the invention consists in the novel features hereinafter set forth and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a plan view illustrating a pane of glass secured in a window-sash according to my invention. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the glass'confining frame open to permit the insertion of the glass, and Fig. 3 a sectional view on the line A B, Fig. 1.
In the said drawings the reference-numeral 1 indicates a window sash-frame, for convenience of illustration of myinvention provided with a seat 2 to receive the pane or sheet of glass 3. The face of the seat 2 is provided with a surface of rubber, felt, or other suitable yielding material 3, against which the pane or sheet of glass abuts, so that there is no liability of abrasion or loose fitting of the glass in the sash-frame.
As shown in the drawings, one part of my glass-confining frame 4 is hinged to one side of the window or other sash-frame 1. This part of the confining-frame consists of a member 5, adapted to lie in the seat 2 of the sashframe and along one side thereof, and upper and lower horizontal arms 6 7, adapted also to lie in the seat 2 of the sash-frame and along the upper and lower sides thereof. The other portion of the glass-confining frame consists of a strip 8, suitablyhinged to the sash-framev at the side opposite the member 5 and adapted to be folded into the seat 2 for the glass and along the side of the sash-frame to which it is hinged. The upper and lower ends of this member 8 are beveled, as shown at 9, and the free extremities of the arms 6 and 7 are correspondingly beveled, as at 10, and overlap and lie upon the beveled ends of said member 8, so that when the glass-confining frame 4 is folded into position against the glass it lies flush with the face of the sash-frame in which the glass is arranged.
In the practical application of my invention the glass-confining frame 4 is hinged, as shown in the drawings, to the window or other like sash-frame 1 and the glass inserted in its seat 2 in said sash-frame against the rubber or other yielding facing 3, whereupon the glass-confining frame 4 is folded on its hinges to close against the glass, as also illustrated in the drawings, in which position, with the glass confined thereby, it lies flush with the face of the window sash-frame.
The referenoe-nu1nerals 11 indicate buttons arranged,as shown in the drawings, at the upper and lower parts of the sash-frame 1 and adapted to be turned into position to lock the glass-confining frame 4 securely in place. When the buttons are turned into locking position, the glass is held in as firmly as by use of the usual putty and tacks.
In event that the glass should become broken or it should be desirable to remove the same for any other cause or substitute a different sheet of glass therefor it is only necessary to turn the buttons 11 into unlocking position, swing the glass-confining frame 4 upon its hinges, and the sheet of glass may be removed and another readily inserted, thus avoiding the tedious operation of removing putty and the tacks, which is the usual manner of securing panes or sheets of glass in window and other like sashes as practiced prior to my invention.
' 13y hinging the vertical members of the glass-confinin,g frame at opposite sides of the sash-frame and providing one of said members with arms which lap over upon the other member the glass is very firmly held in its seat with a minimum of strain upon the locking-buttons.
It is evident that changes in details of construction may be made without departing from my invention, as hereinafter claimed, and I do not wish to confine myself to the specific construction of glass-confining frame shown in the drawings otherwise than as set forth in the claims hereto appended.
When my invention is applied to a windowsash, it will be seen that the glass may be insorted and removed from the inside of the room, and the locking devices are arranged also upon the interior, so that they serve as an effectual guard against the removal of the glass from the outside.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is 1. A sash-frame adapted to receive a pane or sheet of glass, in combination with a glassconfining frame consisting of two members hinged at opposite sides of the sash-frame,
one of said members provided with integral arms at its ends which extend across to and overlap the ends of the other member, and
means for locking said glass-confining frame, substantially as described.
2. A sash-frame adapted to receive a pane or sheet of glass, in combination with a glassconfining frame consisting of two members hinged at opposite sides of the sash-frame, one of said members provided with bevelfaces at its ends and the other of said members provided with integral arms extending from its ends across to and overlapping the bevel ends of the other member, and means for locking said glass-confining frame, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
\VILLIAM J. BEBE.
