SASH-WEIGHT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 7, 1905.
Application filed May 24:, 1905. Serial No. 261,998.
To all 7071 0711, Iii inn/y concern.-
Be it known that I, EDWARD BARRETT SMITH. a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county of New York and State of New York, have made and invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sasheights, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in sash-weights for windows, the object being to provide a sectional weight having interlocking ends whereby the sections may be easily and readily locked or secured together without danger of subsequently becoming accidentally disengaged, but which may be easily separated when desired.
With these and other ends in View the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a view in side elevation of two sections having their abutting ends locked or secured together. Fig. 2 is a front view of one of the sections. Fig. 3 is' a view of the reverse side thereof. Fig. 4 is an enlarged view in perspective of the abutting interlocking ends of the two sections. Fig. 5 is a sectional view taken on the line 5 5 of Fig. 6. Fig. 6 is a sectional view taken on the line 6 6 of Fig. 5.
As illustrated in the drawings, it will be seen that the weight is made up of two or more sections which may be formed of practically the same size and weight, or, if desired, may be made up of diflferent lengths and weights, so that any predetermined Weight may be secured by combining the sections of different lengths.
In the drawings I have illustrated two sections A B of practically the same size, and in Figs. 1, 5, and 6 the abutting ends are shown interlocked in order to show the relative positions of the parts when so adjusted. As the two ends of each section are in all particulars shaped and constructed like the respective ends of all the other sections, a de scription of the ends of one of such sections will suflice for all. The upper end (J of each section is cast much thinner than the body portion and practically forms a continuation or extension of the rear portion of said body, said plate or extension 0 being provided with ,same vertical planes, thereby avoiding any a retaining lug or anchor D, elliptical in form, its greatestdiameter being in the direction of the length of the section, the combined thick.- ness of said lug and restricted end C being slightly less than the thickness of the body of the section. The outer side or edge E of this elliptical-shape lug or anchor is inclined or beveled, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 5, whereby to properly interlock with the nextabove section, as hereinafter described, the bevel of said edge or side E inclining from the junction of the lug with the restricted end C of the section toward the outer elliptical face. The lower end F of the section A is also cast thinner than the body, the restricted portion, however, practically forming a continuation of the front portion of said body, as contradistinguished from the restricted portion C, forming the rear part of said body.
As clearly illustrated in Figs. 1 and 5, the combined thickness of the extension C and extension F about equals that of the body, so that when the sections are united, as illustrated in Fig. 1, the front and rear sides or surfaces of the several sections will lie in the projecting edges, corners, or surfaces which 0 would be liable to interfere with the raising and lowering of the weight in the windowframe.
In the lower restricted end F is formed a recess G, extending entirely across said end, the central portion of which recess is materially increased in diameter by forming the same round or circular, the ends of said recess being much restricted in comparison with the enlarged circular portion thereof, the said edges or sides of the enlarged portion of the recess being beveled orinclined to accommodate the inclined side or edge]? of the lug or anchor D. By thus shaping the parts it will be seen that when one section is turned -at right angles to the next-above section, as
indicated in Fig. 4, the elliptical beveled lug D, presenting its smaller diameter in the direction of the length of the recess G, may be passed into the latter and subsequently turned in a direction in line with the upper adjacent sections, as indicated in Fig. 1. When the two sections are thus interlocked, it will be impossible to accidentally disengage them, as the greater diameter of the elliptical lug is presented to the restricted openings or entrances of the recess G, and through which it is impossible to withdraw said lug while in that positionthat is, while the two sections are in alincnnent. In order to disengage the two sections, it will be understood that one section must be brought into a position at right angles to the other, whereupon the elliptical lug, presenting its smaller diameter to the entrances of the recess Gr, may be withdrawn through the same.
From the foregoing it will be understood that the invention is exceedingly simple, that the several sections may be easily and readily interlocked and as easily and readily separated from each other, all danger of accidental disengagement being at the same time avoided.
Having fullyclescribed my invention, what i I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A sectional sash-weight, each section consisting of a body portion having at one end a lug and at the opposite end a recess, said lug being beveled and elliptical in form, said recess at the opposite end being beveled and formed with restricted ends or entrances thereto, substantially as described.
[SEAL] 2. A sectional sash-weight, each section consisting of a body portion having one end restricted in thickness and provided with an elliptical beveled lug. the opposite end of the section being also restricted in thickness in which is formed a rounded, beveled recess extending entirely across said end and having restricted entrances thereto, substantially as described.
3. A sectional sash-weight, each section consisting of a body portion having one end provided with a beveled elliptical lug, the greatest diameter of said lug being lengthwise of the body, the opposite end of said body being provided with a recess crosswise thereof, said recess at the central portion thereof being beveled and enlarged, substantially as described.
