TOALL WHOM I'l MAY CONCERN:

Be itknown that I, CHARLES F. DODGE, 'of Williamsport, in the county of Lycoming, in the 'State of Penn Sylvania, haveinvented'a. new and improved Sash-Supporter, for car-windows principally, to,4 sup'port the sash in any position'when raised, and to prevent shaking; Vand I do hereby declare that -the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference beingV had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of 4reference marked thereon.

The nature -of my invention consistsrof 'a small brass or iron case or box, inserted into the side window` .easing near the top of the sash. 4This brass case contains a double inclined plane; also, a small cylinder, of rubber, brass, or iras, which sowedges between Vthe inclined .plane and sash as to prevent the shaking of the sash, or the falling of thesush when raised.

Tol enable others skilled in the art to make and use myinrention, I will proceed to describeits constljuc-V Y tion and operation.

I construct mysupporter of brass, in .form as represented in Figures 1, 2, 3, as shown in the accompanying drawings. The said case contains three distinct pieces, viz', a lever, with stop attached,'double inclined plane,

and cylinder,

The lever `is carstrin` one piece, as represented by letter A, with stop D cast on same piece, and inserted in thecase, as represented inV fig, '1, at the lower and backend of the case. i

i The double inclined plane, made of brass, as illustrated in the drawing, and marked B, works 'on a pivot er axle, marked E; The position of the inclined plane inthe'case or supporter is shown in Figures 1, 4, and 5. The cylinder,'marked C, is .a separate piece, placeddetachedly in the supporter, between the inclined plane and edge of the sash-frame. I v

When the sashis down or closed, thecylindeixC, is at thebottom' of thesupportcr, as in iig.V 5. The lever beingrased, permits the long incline to fall back.V On raising the sash, tbe-friction of the `sash against the cylinder occasions it to roll up the long incline B, striking the short incline, which throws it hack to the stop F, as in Iig. 4, allowinglever A to fall, as iu-g. 4. The'weight'of sash forces the cylinder back against `the long incline, which is kept in position by stop D acting in the manner of Va wedge, which holds the sash in any required position'until leyer A is raised, which removes the stop D, .permitting the long incl-ine to return'to its place, as in iig. 5.. This allows the sash to return. Y Y

What I claim 'as my'in'vention, and desire to secure by -Letters Patent, is;- The' combination'and arrangement o f the pivoted double inclined plane B, roller C, lever A, and stop or cam D, in a suitable box o r casing,-substantiallyas shown and-described for the purpose specified.

CEAS, II. DODGE.
