I SASH HOLDER.
(Applicationfiled Oct. 26, 1898.)
Patented Apr. 25, I899.
UNITED sra'rns PATENT jOrFics srnerncxrron forming part of Letters- SASH-HOLDER.
Patent no. 623,749, dated April 25, 1899.
Application filed October 26, 1898. Serial Refit 34.597. (No model.)
To all whom it mag concern.-
Be it known that I, JAMESWEATHERS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the countyof Marion and State frame with my attachment 5 5 of Fig. 1; and Fig. 6
of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Safety Sash Locks and Sash-llolders,of which the followingis a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in window fasteners and locks; and the object of the invention is to provide a device which will be set into the parting-strip of the window-frame and will operate against the side of the sash to supportthe latter at any desired position without weights and at the same time lock the sash againstpossible movement from the outside, either up or down,' and to hold it from rattling in its frame by the action of the wind against it.
-' "I accomplish the objectsof the inventionby the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a view in perspective of a window-frame with a pair of sashes, the same being equipped with my improved sash fas+ toner and lock; Fig. 2, a detail in perspective of the invention removed from the window; Fig. 3, side elevations of the two parts of the device separated from each other; Fig.
4, a detail in side elevation of the windowlooking in the direction of the arrows from the line 4 4 of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a like view looking from the line is a modification of the slide, showing a folding handheld.
Like letters of reference indicate like parts throughout the several views of the drawings.
A represents the window-frame, B the lower sash, B the upper sash, G the inside partingstrip,which holds the lower sash in the frame, and O the parting strip between the two sashes, all of which parts are of usualconstruction.
D is the body of .my improved fastener and lock and is of the same area and shape in crosssection as that partof the parting-stripwhich projects beyond or outside of the windowframe. I generally make this body about six inches in length and set it into the partingstrip by removing a corresponding portion of the latter. It becomes a part of the partingstrip, and as it is of the same size and shape it is scarcely distinguishable from the rest of the strip when painted the same color. It provided-with holes (I, by which it is fastened in place by means of screws. The side of this body part D next to the sash is notched and beveled from d to (Z and in this bevel a centrally-located longitudinal feather or flange D is provided, the outer edge of which is parallel with the opposite wall of the body, but does not come out flush with the face into which the notch enters,
E is a wedge-shaped piece, which exactly fills out the notch in the body D and will be referred to hereinafter as-the sliding wedge. It is grooved longitudinally and centrally from the sloping face back to the dotted line shown in Fig. 3to fit overthe flange I). This groove is shown at e. This construction permits the sliding -wedgetemovedlongitudinnlly of the bodyD;. but lateral movement is prevented. The outside face of the wedge may be roughened, as shown at e, to increase the friction between it and the sash. The thick end of the sliding wedge is provided with the handle E, by which it is moved into or out of engagementwith the sash.
The excellent feature about this fastener is that it can be applied with equal facility to either the upper or the lower sash.
Applied as shown in Fig. 4, the wedge permits the sash to be raised freely, but impinges between the sash and the body D when the sash is lowered and stops it until the wedge is lifted up by the handle E and held out of engagement with the sash. Fig. 5 shows the same device upside down to hold a sash against being-raised. In practice where it is desired to lock the sash against movenient in either direction the device, as shown in Fig. 4, will be placed in the parting-strip on one side of the window, and that shown in Fig.5 will be placed on the other side of the window.
In the modification-shown in Fig. 6 the handle E is hinged to the wedge in order to allow it to be folded down instead of projecting out so prominently as the solid one does.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and wish to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a window fastener and look,
the body approiimately the same shape and eross-seo- In witness whereof I have heiennto set my tion as the parting-stri of the window hnvhand and seal, at Indianapolis, Indiana, this 10 ingone of its s des have ed and provided with 21st; day ofiOotober, A. D. 1898.
a longitudinai central flange on the beveled m side theonter edge of Iwhlch is parallel with J -E HERS' v the opposite wall of the body and a wedge Witnesses:
;sliding on the bevel and grooved to fitthe JOSEPH A. MiNTURN,
flange, substantially as described and shown. CARL SCHLEGEL.
