E. W'. HABERMAAS. S-ASH LOCK.
Ndl 604,982. Patented May 31,1898.
- UNITED STATES `PATE-iwi OFFICE.
EDWARD HABERMAAS, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
SASH-LOCK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 604,982, dated May 31, 1898.
Application filed March 9 18 9 7.
To all whom zit-may concern:
Be it known that I, Ebw'ARD W. HABER- MAAS, a citizen of the United States, residing at St. Louis, State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sash- Locks, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being hadto the accompanying drawings,forming a part hereof.
My invention has relation to improvements in sash-locks; and it consists in the novel arrangement and combination of parts more fully set forth in the specification and pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings, Figure l Eis a vertical longitudinal section of awindow-frame, showing my invention applied to the lower sash. Fig. 2 is a similar section showing the invention' applied to the upper sash. Fig. 3 is a sectional detail of the rotatable spindle to which the cords controlling the lOCking devices for the'sashes are securedwl Fig. tis a detail of the key used for operating said spindle. Fig. 5 is a` front elevatiog 'of the casing within which the spindle isr mounted, and Figs. 6 and 7 are respectively detached views of thelocking-latches operating in connection with the lower and upper sashes,
The object of my invention is to construct a sash-lock which uponproper manipulation on the part of the operator will permit the lower sash to automatically move upward to any predetermined height or permit the upper sash to drop any desirable distance, the locks being so constructed that when either sash has been moved to the proper position the latch of the lock will intercept any further movement of such sash and permanently hold and lock the same in position against any attempt to shift or move the same by unauthorized persons.
Serial No. 626,641. (No model.)
From the arrangement of the eyes 9 9 it is apparent that when the key is turned to rock the spindle in a direction to pull on one cord the other cord will remain slack, and vice versa, so that either one lever ll or the other ll can be tripped according to the pleasure of the operator, and one or the other sash is thus controlled. The upper sash 3 of course works similarly to the lower one, but reversely thereto-that is to say, it is provided with teeth 1G tending downwardly, the locking-latch It therefor having a locking bevel end l5,inclined upwardly, so that when the latch is disengaged from the teeth bythe tripping of the lever ll' the said sash, being heavier than the weight 6,will drop until interccpted by a release of the locking-latch. The
upper sash can of course be readily elosed,as 5o the teeth IG freely ride over the upwardly-inclined locking end l5 of the latch Lt. In each case the teeth l0 1G' form a part of a suitable plate carried by the vertical lateral member of the sash.
It is apparent that minor changes might be made in the construction without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having described my invention, what I claim isl. In a sash-lock, a lower sash a weight in connection with the same, and heavier than said sash, an upper sash a weight in connection with same and lighter than said sash, a series of teeth carried by each of said sashes a bell-crank tripping lever for each of said sashes and located in proximity to the latter, a latch pivoted to one arm of each ofthe trippinglevers and having respectively upwardly and downwardly inclined locking ends coperating with said teeth springs cooperating with the bell-erank levers, a rocking or rotatable spindle, means for rotating the spindle, and cords connecting the periphery of the spindle with the bell-crank tripping levers, whereby the rocking of the spindle in either direction will release either one of the latches from its locked position allowing the upper sash to fall automatically, or the lower sash to automatically move upward.
2. In a sash-lock, a suitable spindle, a socket for the same, radiating depressions at the outer end of the socket, a collar carried by the periphery of the spindle, a terminal flange surrounding the outer end of the socket, a casing carried by the frame and having a tubular reduced extension embracing the spindle between the collar and the terminal flange, said socket and depressions being adapted to receive the shank and processes of a key, respectively, for rotating the spindle, substantially a-s set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
