SPEGIFIGATION forming part of lLetters Patent No." 772,686, dated October 18, 1904.
i Application filed May 5, 1904. Serial No. 206,441. (No model.)
To ally/71,0711, it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD H. ULLNER, a citizen of the United States, residing in Woodcliff, in thecounty of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sliding and Swinging Sash-Windows, of which the following is a speciiication.
This invention relates to an'improved sashwindow which is provided with the usual' i'rame,` which is set into the wall of the building,v a secondary frame, that is pivoted at one side to the main frame and provided with an upper and a lower sash guided vertically in the usual guide-grooves arranged in the secondary frame, said secondary frame being rounded ofi at that side which is pivoted to,
the main frame, so as to permit of its being swung into open position, in connection with a suitablerlocking device arranged at the opposite side of the secondary frame and a knob or yother handle device for operating the secondary frame when opening orl lclosing the same. f f
The invention consists, `further, in the combination, with said secondary frame, of an upper and a lower sash guided in the saine, each sash being suspended by a sash-weight at one side in the usual manner and provided at its lower corner and at its upper diametrically opposite corner with av guide-roller for permitting the easy up-and-down motion of the sashes by the action of one weight for each sas i.
The invention consists, further, in certain details ofconstruction, such as the tight itting of the secondary frame in the main frame and in the pivot connection of one side of the saine with the main frame, and, lastly, in other details of construction and combinations of parts, which will be fully described.I
hereinafter and finally pointed out inthe claims.v f, In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a front elevation of my improvedv slidingaud swinging sash-window. Fig. Qis a horizontal section on line 2 2, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a vertical transverse section o'n line 3 3,
Fig. 1.Y Fig. 4 is a detail horizontal sectionv through one jamb of the sash-window and its main frame, taken on line 4 4, Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a detail horizontal section on line 4 4, Fig'. 1.. Fig. 4b is a detail vertical section on line 4b 4,.Fig. 4a. Fig. 5 is a detail end elevation of the upper partof the secondary frame,lshowing the action of the sashes with one sash-weight only for each sash. Fig. 6 is a horizontal section on line 6 6, Fig. 5. Figs. 7 and .7 are respectively a side and end elevation of the detachable panel for closing the space at the end of the secondary frame. Fig. 8 is a detail end elevation of the lower portion of the sash, showing its connection with the sash cord or chain and an antifriction-roller at its lower corner. Fig. 9 is a detail front elevation of Fig. 8. Figs. 10 and l1v are horizontal sections, respectively on lines 10 10, Fig. 8, and` 11 11, Fig. 9; and Figs. 12 and 13 are respectively a detail side view and a plan view oA the pivotal connection oi' the secondary sash-frame with .the main frame of the sasli-window.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts. v
Referring to the drawings, A indicates the main frame of my improved sash-window, said main frame being made in the usual manner and inserted into the opening left in the wall for the sash-window. To the sill a and to the upper portion of the main frame A is pivoted at one side a secondary frame B, .said secondary frame being accurately fitted into the main frame A and provided at its upper and lower ends -with pivots b, each pivot being provided with a plate c, that is attached by screws to the upper and lower corners of the secondary frame B, said pivots turning in TOO the lianges Z2 ofthe socket. By thus pivoting the secondary frame B into the main frame A the secondary frame can be readily swung into open or closed position, the secondary frame B being for this purpose rounded off at the end adjacent to the pivot b, the roundedoff portion ZL being made concentric with the axis passing through the pivots Z), while the horizontal portions and the opposite vertical end orjarnb of the secondary frame B are fitted into the main frame A so as to producea tight joint therewith. The secondary frame B is provided at the jamb opposite to its pivoted jamb with a knob Ze and locking member ZZ, so as to permit the conveninent opening or closing of the secondary frame B out of or into the main frame A.
The secondary frame B is provided with the usual guide-grooves c for the sashes C and D. The meeting-rails m of the sash es C and D can be secured by any approved sash-fastener, if desired; but it is preferable to dispense with the ordinary sash-fastener and use in place thereof a sash-lock such as shown in Figs. l and 2. The sash -lock is provided with a spindle s3, having a handle 7a2 at its outer end,
. and two bolts c3, which are thrown forward or backward simultaneously by the turning of the spindle, so as to engage when 1n thrown position a socket in the end of each meeting-rail of the sashes, as shown in Figs. 4 and 4b, and thereby lock the sashes in such amanner that they cannot be tampered with from the outside when the bolts are in locked position. Vhen the bolts are thrown back, the sashes are free to move in the secondaryT frame B in the same manner as in the ordinary sashes.
Each sash is provided at the jamb, adjacent that side pivoted to the main frame A, with a sash cord or chain Z and weight cZ, the cord or chain being placed in a groove (Z2 in the jamb of the sash and retained in a socket Z3 in the lower end of said groove by means of a knotZ in the cord CZ and a washer g, placed above said knot Z, as shown in Figs. 8 and 9. By arranging the sash-cords Z in grooves in the ends of the sashes C and D very little space is required for the sash-weight ZQ the sash-cords Z being guided over pulleys (Z5, that are arranged in the upper part of the jamb of the secondary frame B, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. l and in full lines in Fig. 5. The rounded-otf end Zt of the secondary frame B is provided adjacent to the sash-cords Z and weights Z withdetachable panels p, that are retained by cross-pieces p', which are attached to the rounded-oli" end of the secondary frame B, as shown in Fig. 5, the panel p being provided with an opening p2, so as to permit the convenient taking hold of said panel, so as to readily remove the same from the secondary frame B when it is desired to get to the sashcords Z for inserting a new cord or for other repairs. The panels p are provided with shoulders p3 at their upper and lower ends, so as to rest on the cross-pieces 7?'. For facilitating the easy and frictionless up-aiul-down motion of the sashes C and D and in order to distri bute the lateral strain due to the arrangement ol the counterbalancing weights at one side only of the sash each sash is provided at its lower corner, below the socket (Z for the sashcords CZ, with an antifriction-roller f, the spindle f3 of kwhich is supported in ears of a cast-metal platef, thatis attached by woodserews to the lower corner of each sash, so as to retain the antifriction-roller.l in position in such a manner that it projects slightly beyond the jamb of the sash and forms contact with the guide-groove c' of the secondary frame B. Each sash is also provided at a point diametrically opposite to the frictionroller f with a second antifriction-roller f, which is supported in a recess of the sashframe and which moves, in connection with the opposite guide-groove c, in the secondary frame B, the two rollersf and f, in connection with the single sash-cord (Z and weight (Z, permitting' the moving up and down of each sash in a perfectly easy and noiseless manner by the use of a sash-weight at one side only-namely, at the side adjacent to the pivoted portion of the secondary frame B-so as to dispense with the use of sashweights (Z at the opposite side of the secondary frame B,'where owing to the necessity of opening and closing the secondary frame B they could not be arranged. By means of antifrietion-rollers f and f and sash-weigluis (Z arranged at one side only the pivoting of the secondary frame B at one side and the convenient opening and closing of the same in the main frame Aare permitted, so as to give convenient access to the sash-panels y; from opposite sides foi` cleaning, repairing, Sac., without sitting on the window-sill and leaning out of the window, as in the case of the present sash-windows. By swinging the secondary frame B into open position the entire window-opening can be used for purposes of Ventilating, moving large objects in or out of the window, and facilitatingl the easier egress in case of lire and the easier ingress of firemen.
Itis obvious that in place of the locking device for the sashes described any suitable locking device may be used, also any suitable mechanism for attaching the sash-cords to the sashes, as I do not desire to coniine myself to the construction shown in the drawings. lt is further obvious that for producing a tight [it of the secondary frame B in the main frame A the lower part or sill of the secondary frame B is provided with rabbeted ledges 1/, that project over correspondingly-raised portions of the main frame A, so as to produce an air and water tight fitting of the secondary frame B. It is also necessary that the front projecting lip t of the secondary frame .B he
IOO
recessed at its upper and lower edge vadjacent the pivoted end of the secondary frame, as shown at r, so as to permit the swinging of the same into open position without being interfered with by the projecting ledges, as shown in the right-hand side of Fig, 1.
My improved sash-window is adapted for all apartment-houses and very tall buildings owing to the danger connected with `the cleaning of windows or replacing broken panes of glass. floor windows, for the reason that the lock.- ing devices of the sashes can be less interfered with than the ordinary sash-fasteners heretofore in use. proved window is slightly increased in cost owing to the arrangement of the secondary frame, the cost is diminished, on the other hand, forthe reason that'the sash-boxes re' quired for'the present windows are dispensed with. For some purposes, when large objects have to be removed into the building, they eXtra space can be obtained by removing the secondary frame, with the sashes, bodily by unscre'wing the pivot of the same, so that the clear opening of the entire inside height and width of the main frame isavailable, which is-of considerable advantage in many cases.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The windowA is also adapted for first# While, on the one hand, my im-4 l. The combination, in a sash-window, with a window frame having upper and lower sashes slidable therein, said sashes being provided with longitudinal grooves in one side vat one side to the main frame, sashes slidable in said secondary frame, the latter having a groove at the side in proximity to the pivot, counterbalancing-weights attached. to said sashes and movable in said groove, cross-pieces at the terminal portions of said groove, and a removable covering-panel retained by said Vcross-pieces.
. Inv testimony that I claim-the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in pres- .ence of two subscribing witnesses.
