REVERSIBLE WlNDOW-SASH.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 720,164, dated February 10, 1903. Application filed March 14, 1902. Serial No. 98,140. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern: 1 designates a vertical side of a window- Be it known that I, PERRYE. LOREE, a citisash, which, as shown in Figs. 3 and 7, has zen of the United States, residing at Dayton, 'two vertical longitudinal openings 2 2 cut in the county of Montgomery and State of therein and an intervening recess 3.

These tongues at 4 have each clear, and exact description of the invention, a notch 5 cut in the inner adjacent ends such as will enable others skilled in the art thereof, and the outer edges of said metallic to which it appertains to make and use the tongues adjacent to-said notches terminate 60 same, reference being had to the accompanyin rounded or tapering form, as at 6, the puring drawings, and to the figures of reference pose of which will be hereinafter mentioned. marked thereon, which form a part of this 7 7 designate two transverse oblong openings specification. through said metallic tongues through which :5 This invention relates to improvements in pins 8 project, said pins being passed through 6 window-sashes, and has forits object theprothe side walls of the openings 2 2 and made vision of means for manipulating a windowstationary. These pins 8 limit the movement sash to reverse the sides thereof in order that of said metallic tongues in and out.

The notched ends 5 5 of the 564,933, granted to myself July 28, 1896. metallic tongues 4 4 are held in position on 75 Preceding a detail description of the inveneach side of the window-sash by a pivot-plate tion reference is made to the accompanying '11, whichis placed in the cavity3 in said sash. drawings, of which The ends of this pivot-plate 11 project into Figure 1 is a-front'elevation of a portion of the notches 5 5 in the ends of the metallic a window frame and sashes upon which my tongues, as shown in Fig. 2, and thereby pre- 80 improvements are placed. Fig. 2 is a vertivent said ends of said metallic tongues from cal enlarged section through one side of a moving entirely out of their respective openwindow-sash, showing. my improvements .ings 2 2. The pivot -.plates 11 are secured partly in section. Fig. 3 is a detail side elewithin the recesses 3 3 by means of screws,

Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail side eleplatel t, as shown in Fig. 8, to be again revation of aportion of aside ofa window-sash, ferred to.

19 designates channel-bars, one of which is located on each side of the window-sash within the sash-channel usually provided in window-frames. This channel-bar 19 is preferably made of sheet metal with a central longitudinal groove 20 therein and longitudinal rounded corners 21. These channel-bars are placed in posit-ion with the grooves lying adjacent to the side edges of the sash 1, and into these grooves the outer edges of the metallic tongues 4 4 project when the channel-bars are brought in line with said tongues. The metallic plates 14, to which the sash-cords are attached, are secured on the outer sides of these channel-bars 19 and are held stationary with said channel-bars when the sashes are turned upon the pivots 18, thus moving with the channel-bars and the sash.
From the foregoing description it will be seen that the sash is locked in its normal position by the metallic tongues 4 4 entering the channels 20 in the channel-bars 19. From this position the sash may be swung inwardly and outwardly on the pivots 18 by suitable pressure being applied to either end of the sash above or below said pivots. In applying this pressure the tapering edges 6 6 of the metallic tongues 4 at press inwardly within the slots 2 2 by the edges of said channel 20 making contact therewith, and thus the metallic tongues 4 4 will be moved inwardly within the openings 2 2 throughout their lengths and permit of the window-sash being turned on any desired angle. In bringing the window-sash back to its upright or normal position the rounded edges 21 21 of the channel-bars 19 likewise first make contact with the tapering edges 6 6 of said metallic tongues to move said tongues within the grooves 2 2 until the channels 20 in the channel-bars 19 are brought to a straight position with reference to said tongues 4: 4, at which time the pressure of the springs 9 9 throws out said metallic tongues throughout their length into the grooves 20, and whereby the sashes are lockedin theirnormalpositions. Thetongues 4 a act as locks for the sash and also serve the useful purpose of weather-strips to exclude air and water from the interior of the window. In this inward movement of the metallic tongues at 4 in the movement of the windowsash and the outward movement of the metallic tongues under the action of springs 9 9 the pins and slots 7 and 8 control the said metallic tongues and prevent them from moving entirely out of the openings 2 2 when they become entirely released by the sash. The function of the spring 13 is to maintain the outer metallic plate 14 in rigid contact with the outer side of the channel-bar l9 and to hold the sash at any desired position.
Having described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a reversible window-sash, the combination with a window-sash the same having longitudinal openings in the outer vertical sides thereof, metallic tongues within said openings, means for maintaining said metallic tongues yieldingly within said openings, a metallic channel-bar having a longitudinal groove therein into which said metallic tongues project, a plate secured to the outer vertical sides of said window-sash, said plate inclosing the adjacent ends of the metallic tongues, a bolt passing through said plate and to which the channel-bars and sash have pivotal connect-ions, substantially as shown and described.
2. In a reversible window-sash, the combination with a window-sash the same having longitudinal openings in the outer vertical sides thereof, metallic tongues placed within said openings, means for yieldingly maintaining said metallic tongues within said openings, a metallic plate secured to the outer vertical sides of said sash between the ends of said metallic tongues and inclosing said ends, a metallic channel-bar having a central longitudinal groove therein into which the said metallic tongues project when the said longitudinal groove is moved in line therewith, a pivot-bolt secured to said metallic plate and forming a pivot for said channel-bar, and a metallic plate also loosely mounted on said pivot-bolt within said channel-bar, said last-named plate providing means for attaching the sash-cord and for maintaining the channel-bar in operative position, substantially as shown and described.
3. In a reversible window-sash, the combination with a window-sash having longitudinal openings in the outer vertical sides thereof, metallic tongues placed within said openings, each of said tongues having a notch and a transverse slot, a pin projecting through said transverse slot and limiting the movement of said tongue, springs exerting outward pressure on said tongues to the inner limit of said slot, a metallic plate secured to said sash between the ends of said tongues, the ends of said metallic plate projecting into the notches in said metallic tongues and thereby maintaining the inner ends of said tongues in position within the openings, a pivot-bolt secured to said metallic plate, a channel-bar having a central longitudinal groove therein into which the said tongues project when the said groove is moved in line therewith, a plate within said channel-bar having a pivotal connection with the pivotbolt, the said channel-bar and plate being movable with the sash on said pivot and the said plate affording means for attaching the sash-cord and maintaining the channel-bar in position, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
