Description
1933- A. WEIDLICH RATTLEPROOF WINDOW WEDGE Filed April 7, 1933 Patented Oct. 17, 1933 RATTLEPROOF WINDOW WEDGE Arthur Weidlich, Bloomfield, N. .1.
Application April 7, 1933. Serial No. 664,971 1 Claim. (01. 292-343) This invention relates to a wedge for preventing a window sash from rattling, the general object of the invention being to provide a wedge pivotally secured to a part of the sash and having a part adapted to extend between the sash and a part of the window frame to hold the sash against rattling and also to lessen the amount of air passing between the sash and the frame.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and specifically pointed out in the appended claim. V
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:
Figure 1 is a fragmentary view of a window showing the invention in use.
Figure 2 is a section on line 22 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a view of one of the wedges.
Figure 4 is a side view thereof. I
Figure 5 is a-bottom plan View. v In this drawing, the numeral 1 indicates the edges, each wedge being formed of a hollow body having the recess formed thereby opening out through the flat bottom part 2 of the'de-,
vice. The top face of the device slopes upwardly and inwardly from one-end thereof, as shown at 3, with an intermediate part of the top face formed fiat, as shown at 4, and from this fiat part to the opposite end of the device,
side portions recessed as at 6, so as to form a,
comparatively narrow and curved finger grip 7. A hole 8 passes through the flat part 4 so that a screw or the like can be passed through 2, to pivot the device to the sash. The high end of the device, of course, is heavier than the other end so that the device will assume a vertical position with the wedge end uppermost, under the action of gravity. 1
Thus by pressing the sash inwardly and the turning the devices so that their wedge ends will pass between portions of the sash and parts of the frame, as shown in Figure 1, the sash will be firmly held against the frame, so that it cannot rattle and there will be a less amount of air enter between the sash and the frame than would if the devices were not in use. As shown in Figure 1, it is simply necessary to turn the devices less than a right angle from their origithe device into a sash, as shown in Figures 1 and nal vertical position in order to have them .hold
the sash against movement. The devices can be placed anywhere desired, though Figure 1 shows two of the devices at the top of the lower sash and two other devices at the bottom of the upper sash and placed on the outer face of said upper sash so as to hold the upper sash inthe upper members.
To release the devices, it is notnecessary to touch the same, as th is can be accomplished by merely pulling down the window, which automatically releases th will hold the sash in e wedges. I These devices place at any position so that they can be used in making repairs to the sash cords or wherever itis desired to hold a window sash in raised position while the weights are not attached tothe sash.
- It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of the invention will be readily apparent.
It is to be understood that changes may be made in the construc tion and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claim.
What I'claim is: A device for preventing a window sash from rattling comprising an elongated body having a flat lower face with its top face formed with a flat intermediate portion, a downwardly sloping portion extending from one end of the flat portion to one end of the body and a raised portion extending from the other end of the flat portion to the other termediate flat portion having'a .hole therein end of the body, the infor receivinga fastening member for pivoting the body to a support and the sides of the raised portion having recesses therein which form a finger hold at the raised end of the body, the
high end of the body acting as a weight to nor-v ARTHUR WEIDLICH.
