REVERSIBLE WINDOW.
- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 3, 1908.
l Application filed. December 16, 1907. Serial No. 406,823.
To all whom fit may concern:
Re it known that I, GEORGE J. MILLER, a cltlzen of the United States, and a resident of Fremont, in the county of Sandusky and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Reversible "Windows, and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference belng had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to reversible windows of the horizontally pivoted typeand particularly to improvements in the sash-runners thereof; and it 'has fory its object the provision of a runner of this class, whichis materially lightened, simplified and improved in its construction over those heretofore employed vfor such purpose, whereby to increase its efficiency and enhance its pragcticability and commercial value.
The invention is fully described in the following specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which,-
.Figure 1 is a partial perspective elevation of a window-casing and its windows, with the former partly in section. Figs. 2 and 3 are side perspective and end views, respectively, of a modified form of the runners, and Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a portion of one of the runners shown in Fig. 1.
Referring to the. drawings, 1 designates the usualwindow-casing having the customary sash-grooves or runways 2 in its sides and 3 a sash mounted therein. The sash has a plate 4 secured to each side edge thereofby screws, or in any other suitable manner, and pivotally carried by the sash in abutment with the outer faces of these plates are the sash-runners 5, the construction of which forms the subject matter of this :n-
as at 6, and the other leg is likewise slit above the runner axis, as at 7, to form lower and upper severed leg portions which are turned outwardly and over the loop portions of the runners in spacedparallelism therewith to form the diagonally disposed hooked flanges 8 and 9, respectively.
When the sash and runners stand in vertical parallel relation the `hookedflanges' 8v and 9 embrace the contiguous sides -of the plates 4 near the upper and lower ends thereof, and their terminals fpr'oject within relto cesses10formed in the edges of the sash at the inner sides of the plates iat such points, thus causing an'interlocking of theplates I and runners 5 lto prevent relat1ve lateral movement thereof and to form a close joint between said parts to prevent the circulation of air therebetween. The void spaces in the legs ofthe runnerscaused by the turning up of the flanges 8 `and 9 are filled by strips of metal 11,11 which are suitably fashioned to form continuations of the legs. These strips are shown as being secured to the runners by having their inner ends shouldered around the contiguous ends yof the runner legs and riveted or otherwise suitably secured thereto, and their inner longitudinal .edges flanged and riveted to the loop portions of the runners.A A U-shaped metal bracing-piece 12 is disposed within the channel of a runner at each end thereof and has its legs secured to the legs'of the runner to laterally brace the same. The upperone o the pieces 12 is cutaway to form an opening for the passage of the sash-cord 18 within the runner to attach to a hook 14C therein. If it isv not desired to makethe runners fireproof, a block 15 of wood or other suitable f sa material may be secured within the channels of the runners at the ends thereof and serve both to brace the` legs and fill the spaces formed by the turning up of theIianges 8- nd 9. il. 16 designates a spring pressed locking-bar, which is mounted in a suitable mortise in the sash side and operates through a longi-x connect the runners and sash and form an.
axis on which they relatively swing. f It is apparent -fromthe foregbing that I loo have provided a sashrunner,-which is sim-h ple, strongand durable and requires 4a 1ninimum amount of matemalinvltsconstruction,
thereby cheapening its cost of manufacture and enhancing its commercial value.
vI wish it to be understood that I do not desire to be limited to the exact details of construction shown and vious modilications will skilled in the a'rt.
Having thusdescribed described,` as oboccur to persons my invention, what I claim as new and desireto secure by Lethooks which,
ters Patent7 is,-
l. The combination with' a window-sash having diagonally disposed recesses in its side edges, of runners pivoted to the sash sides, saidrunners being U-shaped in cross.
section yand having diagonally-disposed portions of .the legs thereof turnedv back upon theloop portions yof the runners to form l when the sash and runners stand in parallelism, lock with the recesses in the sash to form a close joint between the parts and to limit their relative movements,
and members secured to the runners to fill the vacancies in the legs occasioned by the turning up of said portions. l
2; In combination, a window-sash having laterally facing recesses or grooves provided in the diagonally-disposed portions of -its side edges, a runner pivoted to each iside of the sash, said runnerbeing U-shaped in cross-section and havinoa integral diagonallydisposed lloolesliaped flanges adapted to in.-
.and runners to frictionally retain them in 4relative ad] ust-ment. said runners comprising channel-bars having their legs slit at predeternfnned points therein and 'diagonallydisposed portions of the legs ofl va runner turned bacl upon the loop portion thereof to form hooksadapted to interlock with regis` tering edges of the associated sash plate,.a metal `piece secured to each leg to form a continuation thereof whereby to'ill the leg space made vacant by the turning back of said portions, and meta-l bracing-pieces secured between the ends of the associated legs, substantially as described. In. testimony whereof I have hereunto signed my name to this specification 4in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
