Claims. 1
The invention relates to a combination storm sash and screen.
An object of our invention is to provide a combination storm sash and screen which is simple, inexpensive, strong, durable, and capable of easy assembly and installation on a window, and which utilizes hardware and fittings which may be readily applied by anyone familiar with tools 'for hanging the upper and lower storm sash or screen in place.
A further object of the invention is to provide hardware of this character having supporting hooks and hangers which will remain engaged While the supported storm sash or screen is swung outwardly through a distance of 45 or so, and which will also provide a feed-in action when the storm sash or screen is hung, whereby the sash or screen in closing will be caused to fit tightly against the window frame but without sticking. I
Also an object of the invention is the incorporation of an upper sash support, a lower sash hanger, and an upper sash fastener, all in one unit which is fastened to the brick moldof a window frame whereby the upper storm sash or screen is relievedof the weight of the lower storm sash or screen.
Another object of the invention is to reduce to a minimum the number of parts of hardware so that these parts may be easily applied to the cooperating portions of the frame or sash, and
the upper storm sash unit.
A further object of the invention is to provide for a combined storm sash and screen unit a hardware construction which will support the upper storm sash or screen unit on the brick mold, and in which there will be exposed only a minimum amount of hardware to the elements.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportions, and minor details of construction, within the scope of the claims, may be resorted to without departing from the spirit, or sacrificing any of the advantages, of the invention.
In the drawings:
Figure l is a view in elevation looking from the outside toward a window frame equipped with storm sashes of the present invention;
Fig. 2 is a vertical section on line '2-2 of Fig. 1 through a pair of conventional, doublehung sliding sashes within a window frame having an associated brick mold, this figure showing the upper and lower storm sashes in approximately their relative positions while separated from each other and from the window frame;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged vertical detail in section, taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is an enlarged detail in horizontal section, taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a hanger, hook, and upper storm sash fastener, in their respective operative positions in relation to the adjacent storm sash and window parts which are shown in phantom outline;
Fig. 6 is a front elevational view of the hange and hook in operative relation to the adjacent storm sash and window parts, the upper storm sash fastener being illustrated in dotted lines;
Fig. 7, which is a view similar to Fig. 5, illustrates a hanger and storm sash supporting hook of slightly modified construction;
Fig. 8 is a front elevational view of the fittings shown in Fig. 7
Fig. 9, which is a view similar to Figs. 5 and '7, shows a hanger, hook and upper storm sash fastener of further modified construction; and
Fig. 10 is a front elevational view of the fittings shown in Fig. 9.
Referring particularly to Figs. 1 to 4 of the drawings in which is illustrated one form of the invention, A and B designate upper and lower storm sash units which are arranged within the brick mold E of a window frame wherein is mounted a pair of conventional double-hung sliding sashes C and D. The window frame, which may be of any desired construction, is provided with a head iamb 16, a sill l1, and a blind stop IS.
The upper storm sash A is provided at its top rail with upwardly projecting retaining pins 2i! which fit in bores or holes 2| in the top rail 22 of the brick mold. In applying the upper storm sash in place, the retaining pins 20, previously anchored in the sash, are entered in the holes 2! which are preformed with a boring tool after their positions are first located by indentations from the pins when the storm sash is preliminarily fitted within the brick mold. Such a simple operation may be readily performed by almost anyone familiar with tools.
The lower storm sash B is provided at each of its opposite sides at the top with a hanger F consisting of an attaching plate secured to the side edge of the lower storm sash and arranged between the same and the brick mold and provided at its upper portion with an inclined projection 22 extending outwardly and upwardly and having a laterally extending flange'f i wherein is a slotted opening 28 through which extends a supporting hook G for-med integral with and extending upwardly and outwardly from the lower portion 38 of an attaching plate secured to the brick mold.
The hook G has a rounded outer edge and an inclined inner edge '32 spaced from the outer edge of the attaching plate 3| to provide a concave bearing recess for the reception of the engaging portion of the laterally extending flange 2'! of the hanger F as clearly illustrated :in 3 of the drawing. This construction provides a feed-in and pivotal action when the lower storm sash B is swung inwardly from the dotted line position of Fig. 3 to the full line position shown therein, thereby causing the lower storm sash to fit tightly against the window frame without binding or sticking; the lower storm sash may then be easily and freely swung outwardly for opening movement, or for removal of the lower storm sash to permit a screen to be substituted therefor.
The attaching plate 3! of the supporting hook G is split vertically at its lower portion medially of the inner and outer edges, and the inner half is bent upwardly into a horizontal position to form a supporting ledge or shelf 35. This shelf is located adjacent the upper edge of thetop rail of the lower stormsash B to receive the bottom rail of the upper storm sash A and form a support therefor. By this construction, the
, weight of the upper storm sash is sustained by the attaching plate of the'supporting book which, in turn, is carried by the brick mold, and the lower storm sash is therefore free of any and all weight imposed by the upper storm sash.
Thedower storm sash B is provided in the upper edge of 'it top rail adjacent 'the'outeriface thereof with a groove '31 arranged'for interlocking with a tongue 38 depending from the lower face of the bottom rail of the upper storm sash A. The two storm sashes may beimmobilized by a fastener 46 consisting of a plate pivoted to the upper storm sash by a screw 41 and offset from the inner face of the bottom rail of theupper storm sash by an angular bend 42 in conjunction with a spacing disk-d3 which is fitted around the screw 4! between the fastener and the upper storm sash.
At its lower end the fastener is positioned to engage the inner face'of the shelf 35 which is anchored to the brick mold; the upper storm sash is thereby securely held against outward movement. The sash fastener 4B may be provided with a projecting finger piecedii formed integral therewith and bent outwardly to be readily grasped forswinging the upper storm sash fastener into i'andout of locking. position. Any
suitable 'means may be employed .for securing 4 the bottom end of the lower storm sash B in its closed position.
In Figs. 5 and 6 of the drawings is illustrated certain details of the present hanger hardware which comprises a pair of supporting hooks 1-]? each having an attaching plate 5| secured to the brick mold and having its lower portion split vertically medially of its inner and outer edges. The inner split portion which is bent upwardly into a horizontal position provides a shelf 52 which is adapted to sustain the upper storm sash or screen 'whereon is 'pivotally carried at 53 an upper sash fastener 5t formed with a finger piece 55. Each attaching plate 55 is secured to the lower storm sashatone of its side edges and at its outer edge this plate is provided with an inclined portion 51 which projects upwardly and outwardly and then laterally in the form of a flange 53 arranged at an inclination. A slotted opening 68 provided in the flange 58 is adapted to receive the supporting hook H whose inclined inner edge ill, coacting with the top edge of the opening 66, tends to produce the feed-in action heretofore described.
The pivoted upper storm sash fastener 54 may be of the same construction as that previously noted, and a spacing disk 62 may be arranged .on the pivot screw 53 to correctly position the fastener with respect to the shelf 52 with which it coacts when depending vertically in locking 7 position.
-' storm sash when the latter is swung through a predetermined distance, say 4.5; (2) it provides a feed-in action when the lower storm sash is hung; and (3) it incorporates in one unit these two features along with a mounting or support for the upper storm sash. This hook hardware is fastened directly to the brick mold of the window frame, independently of either of the storm sashes or screens, and the h nging .of the lower storm sash directly from the brick mold of the window frame without any connection with the upper storm sash permits use of a lower half screen, if desired, without using a complementary upper half screen.
In Figs. 7 and 8 of the drawings is illustrated ,a further modification wherein the hook hardware isof the same construction as thatdisclosed in Figs. 5 and -6 in that it consists of a pair of hooks Ieach extending forwardly and upwardly from anattaching plate 66, and a shelf 61 which is laterally extended in a horizontal plane. An upper storm sash fastener 68, pivotallysupported by-a screw 69, engages with thes'helf .when vertically disposed. For the lower storm sash we provide a hanger J arranged .on the front face sash is hung in place. In this construction it will benoted the hanger J is mounted .on the front face of the lower storm sash, insteadof upona side thereof, and that instead of .a slotted flange to engage with the hook I we employ aslightly oifsethead 12.
In Figs. 9 and is illustrated another form of the supporting hardware which, like the modification last described, includes a hanger K secured to the front face of the lower storm sash near its top. This hanger may consist of a single piece of sheet metal having a lower attaching base plate 80, an intermediate upwardly outwardly and laterally inclined portion 8|, and an upwardly and inclined head portion 82 wherein is a slotted opening 83 to receive a supporting hook L rounded over its upper edge and formed with an inclined inner edge 85 which produces a feed-in action when the lower storm sash is hung therefrom. The supporting hook projects outwardly and upwardly from an attaching plate 81 which is secured to the brick mold; in its lower portion it is split medially of its inner and outer edges, the inner portion being bent upwardly into a horizontal position to form a supporting shelf 88 which is adapted to receive and support the upper storm sash when rested thereupon.
The attaching plate 81 is provided at its upper portion With a laterally extending arm 90 to which is pivoted, as by a rivet 9|, an upper storm sash fastener 92 having an outstanding finger piece 93. The sash fastener which is disposed horizontally when in its locking position is then supported upon a shoulder 94 formed upon the front edge of the attaching plate 81. When the sash fastener is in a horizontal position it overlies the upper storm sash to hold it securely in position, but when swung upwardly to one side the upper storm sash is free to be swung in or out.
The majority of installations will probably consist of one upper storm sash and one each of a lower storm sash and a screen, making a total of three units per window. In some cases, four sashes, consisting of an upper storm sash and an upper screen and a lower storm sash and a lower screen, may be preferred. In each of the constructions herein shown and described only a minimum of hardware is exposed to the elements, and this is a factor of long life and prolonged serviceability.
We claim:
1.
