A further obj cot-of the invention 1s to provide a'metal window which is so constructed and arranged that the parts thereofmay be made of relatively thin "gauge metalat' a comparatively low production cost.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course ofthe following description.

Figure-7 is a-perspective view of onefof the upper slide members forming part of i the mountingimeansy V Figure 8 'isa top planviewof one Iof the lower slide members with a hinge member engagedltherewith; Y I V vIn the illustrated embodiment, the :numeral "1 generally designates: a stationary fnamehaving spaced channel shaped jambs 2 and head" and sill cross-members '3- and 4 respectively extending between theja mbs. A movable ventilator or window '5 -is mounted'sfor horizontal sliding and swin ing movement upOn-the stationary fra'rne nd 7 comprises sashes or seetlons G and Tlring'edly connected at their inner longitudinal edges for inward swinging' movement by ahi'nge mechanism 8. "Each sashhas in randeuter v channel shaped stiles 9 and lQland upper lower cross rails ll and 12respectively3 As 7 shownparticularly" in Figures 3 and 5; when the ventilator is in'elosed' positio'mtlr iniier stiles 9 i nter-fit' the outer stiles l0 embrace and snugly engage the eliannel 'shaped 'j ambs 2 of the stationary frame, and the cross rails of the ventilator sashes'overlapthe head a'nd sill" cross members of} the stationary frame. Thus',' a tight weather-proof joint is provided at the meeting 'edges'of the vmuatorseetions.
and throughout the marginal engaging po'gtions, or thevent'ilatorand stationary frame.
Also, when the ventilatoroccu'pies a closed position, the c'hannel-shaped'stiles l0 and'the j'cros's rails 11' and' IfZ'thereOf desperat with the channel-shaped j ambs 2and the head and sill cross members 3 and 4 of' thefframe -"to providevertica'lly and horizontally chambers l-3* and l t-respectively.
The hinge mech nism 8 comprises aser'ies i r -r pr s igidly ewedmh i r 'tudinal-edge of each inner stile 9 andoverlapping aligned apertured barrel; poi-' tions 16 through which a rod 17 extends' to form a pintle. The rod -17 is f rotatable and has its opposite ends provided with 'arcuate portions '18 which are adapted to be' posi;
tioned behind and inengag'ement with keeper members, such as studs 19 Carri'ed-by-theE'efOss members 3 andt of the stationaryjframefor securing the ventilator-binclosed position. The rod 17 is provided at a pointintermediate its ends wit-ha handle portion ZQ-by 'means 'oiiwhich the rod may becQnWenientIy' r0 tated forjmovingthej 'arcuate-{portions 18 into" or out of latching position; :The handle portion" 20 of the rod may also 'be' gras ed by the operator when it is desired 'to e ect adjustment of the ventilator sections (rand 7.
The mechanism for mounting the ventila tor 5 upon the stationary frame will now be described, particular attention being directed to Figures 6, 7 and 8. Broadly, it comprehends means to provide sliding and swinging or pivotal movement of the ventilator with respect to .the frame, To thisend the ventilator has secured thereto adjacent its fourrcorners hinge members21 having curved po rtions 22. The hinge members 21 are pivotally-connected toupper and lower pairs of slides 23 a'nd 24 respectively by-having their curved portions positioned in corresponding;
j ly curved grooves 25 formed in the lower faces of the slides,- the lower sides of the innerforward cornerrof each slide 23 is cut grooves being closed by cover plates 26 after the insertionof the curved portions -22.; The
away as indicated at. 23 tovpermit the outer legs or sides-:11" of the channel-shaped cross members 11 ofthe ventilator sections to'pass the slides when the ventilator is moved toward open or closed position; I t
Eor supporting the upper slides 23 for sliding movement longitudinally of the cross member 3 of the stationary frame, a channelshaped track 27 coincident in length, with the cross member is rigidly secured thereto and adaptedto receive reducedportions 28 of the slides and hasiits le portions provided with lnyvardly direeted anges29 extending into longitudinal grooves 30. formed? in the opposite faces of the slides. c j q The :lower slides 24 are guided in their movement by means of a track 31 secured to the cross member 4 of the stationary frame 7 V and having a downwardly opening channel- 2,7 and 31 as i enhances the. appearance shaped portion 32 into which upwardly extending flanges-33 on the slides 24 extend.
A ,For the purpose of insuring uniform and equal movement of the upper and lower slides 23 and 24 at the opposite longitudinal edges of theventilator, the same are connected by separatevertical rotatable shafts 3 1 ournalled in the slides and having pinions 3 5 fixed thereto and engaging gear racks 36 formed in From the foregoing, it will be apparent 7 that the mounting jor supportingmeans for the ventilator 5 including the hinge members 21, slides'23 and 2e, tracks 27 and 31, shafts :34 and pinions 35 are completely enclosed and concealed within the chambers 13 and la whcn the ventilator is in closed position; This not onlyrprotects' the parts againstcorrosion due to exposure tothe weather, but also greatly .of ..the window.
the racks 86 but are mg and consequent binding in the stationary frameJ Also, by thus supporting the sash members, the .samemay be constructed of relatively thin gauge metal at an extremely low production cost and the sashes have low thermal conductivity due to the-thinness of the metal-so that the possibility v of inside frosting ofthe Window glass is practically avoided.
The operation ofthe window may bebrieflysummarized as'follo'ws Assuming the ventilator to be secured in closed position and it is desired to open the same, the operator may grasp the handle portion 20 of the rod 17 and rotate the rod sufficiently for the arcuate portions 18 thereof to clear the stud members 19, whereupon an inward pull on the handle will result in horizontal sliding and swinging movement of the sashes 6 and 7 on the stationary frame. This sliding and swinging action is afforded by the slides 23 and 24, which move longitudinally of the cross members 3 and 4and the pivotal movement of the hinge members 21with respect to the slides.
The sashes may be adjusted to various p'ositions between the sides of the 'frame'opening or to a position adjacent one side or the other. Also, the sashes may beadjusted to assume the same relative positions with respect to the stationary frame, or maybe variably adjusted to assume different positions-with respect 'to the rame to bring about the desired What I claim as my invention is f 1.
