Figure 5 shows 'a'set'of stampings from which the-fastener is made; and 7 Figure 6 is a modified form of the device of the invention shownmounted on a sash about to be disengaged from a projecting pin.
Referring now to Figure 1 the reference 'nu meral I 0 designates a frame for a window I2 with which a secondary window or storm sash I4 is to be used. Instead of a secondary window such as storm sash I4, the closure member may be a screen sash or the like. The window frame includes an upper casing I6, side casing I8, upper blind stop 20, side blind stop 22, upper jamb 24 and side jamb 26, all of which are properlyjoined together and arranged to receive'the window I 2 and the closure member or storm sashI4.
For positioning the sash I4 in the frame a'pair of. fasteners 39, see Figure-d, are mounted on the inside of the sash at the top for engagement with means such as projectin pins 32 whi ch are screwed-or otherwise fastened to the side blind stop 22. Figure 5 exemplifies the preferred embodiment of fastener which is madefrom two blank-strips of metal 0 and K, the former'strip comprising a back'member -34 provided with holes 36 to receive screws 38 to securely hold the fastener to the sash I 4. The holes36 are punched or drilled in a flange '40 which is offset from member, so thatthe holeswill be more accessible for inserting'the screws 38 when the fastener is completelyassembled as best shown in Figure 4. It should be noted that the flange 4|] is either on the right or left hand side of the member depending on which side of the sash the fastener is to be used. As indicated in Figure 4, there will be one of each type fastener for a sash. That is, there will be right and-left hand fasteners. The member 34 isprovided with flanges 44 integral with the member and extendir1 g from both sides thereof. These flanges 44 are so disposed relative tothe member 34 as'to be bent or folded back upon the member to thereby-grip or otherwise securely clamp the blank strip or element K for supporting the same in cooperative relationship to the strip 0 as will be hereinafter described. V I
Theupper end orf-ree end of member ?i4 is provided with a hook46 having an exterior. cam portion and an interior-1y formed vertex orpivot 0 about which the sash pivots orswingswhen in the lowered position shown inFigure-IS- This hooked end-is formedintq a curve with-:a sweeping arc I or Iargaradiusin .orderto furnish a movable pivot-or aseries. of pivot points'for the fastener. That is the use of a :hook havinga v curvature, such as shown, enables thefastener l gu'reis'a view in perspective as seii-ffromto assu-me more than one position of pivot along the curvatureto permit-sliding the sashon the pins away frpm theframe; 'Ifhis sliding of the sash on. the pins normal 'tothe frame might {be described as an in and out movement of the sash relative to the frame. A hooked end, of the shape herein shown, also permits swinging the sash outwardly a considerable distance at the bottom, as is sometimes desirable where a storm sash is used.
The fastener 38 comprises the metal strip or back member K to which the resilient metal strip 0, which is preferably made of spring steel or other yieldable material, is suitably attached. The element or metal strip K has one end 59 securely attached to the lower end of said member 34 by the flanges 48 and the other end or free end 52 angularly disposed with respect to the back member and extending beyond the hook 55 to be engaged by the projecting pin 32 to help guide the same into engagement with the member 34. The construction and arrangement of element K is such that it will ride against the projecting pin 32 when the sash is raised to the position shown, in Figures 1 and 4, to earn or draw the sash into place and to yieldingly hold said sash in the frame.
To hang the sash it is moved upwardly along the side blind stop so that the portions 46 of the fastener (see Figure 2) engage the projecting pins 32 to thereby guide the fasteners into en gagement with the pins. That is, as the sash is moved upwardly the exterior portions @5 of the fastener follow along the projecting pins 32 until the pins engage the ends of the yieldable spring strips K, at which time an. additional upward force on the sash causes the ends of the strips to yield so that the fasteners can now be moved into engagement with the pins (see Figure 3). In this position the pins are releasably locked in engagement with the fasteners by strip K. Continued upward movement of the sash causes the resilient elements of the fasteners to slide along the pins to thereby draw the closure or sash into position in the frame against the blind stops.
To remove the sash from the frame when in the position shown in Figure 1, lower the sash by swinging it slightly outwardly at the bottom until the relative position of the projecting pins 32 and the fasteners are as shown in Figure 6 of the modified embodiment, at which time the sash is swung further outwardly so that the inner top edge W of the sash pivots about the side blind stop as a fulcrum. This action causes the ends of the yieldable members to be urged away from the cam portions to disengage the fasteners from the projecting pins.
Figure 6 is a modified embodiment of the in vention in which the reference numeral 14 designates a fastener mounted on a screen 15 and made from a single stamping comprising a mern ber '16 provided with holes 11 to receive screws 18 for securely attaching the fastener to the screen or sash. A yieldable element 19 is bent back upon the member 16 so as to have an end 80 extending beyond and in contact with a preformed portion 82 of the member 16. As was explained in the preferred embodiment the preformed portion 82 and the end 89 provide means for guiding the projecting pin into engagement with the fastener. In the modified embodiment the hooklike portion 82 is in the form of an inclined flat surface to thereby provide a, cam face to engage projecting pin 32.
While I have shown and described several constructions in which theinvention may be advantageously embodied, it is to be understood that the constructions shown have been selected merely for the purpose of illustration or example, and that various changes in the size, shape, and arrangement of the parts may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
I claim:
1. A fastener for a sash comprising a first strip attachable to an inside upper corner of a sash and having its upper end bent outwardly to form a hook, and a resilient second strip attached to the base of the first strip and inclined outwardly from the plane of the first strip, said second strip extending against and beyond the hook of the first strip to guide a pin attached at right angles to a sash frame into the enclosed space between the two strips and to resiliently receive such a pin against the second strip thereby urging the sash inwardly into its frame as the sash is moved upwardly into its frame.
2. A fastener for a sash comprising a back member attachable to an inside upper corner of a sash and having its upper end-turned outwardly to provide a hook, and a resilient element attached to the lower end of said member and inclined outwardly therefrom with the free end of said element lying adjacent the hook, said free end of the element extending beyond said hook to guide a pin projecting from a sash frame into the enclosed space between said member and element, said resilient elementengaging such a pin to thereby urge the sash inwardly into its frame as the sash is moved into position.
3. A fastener for a sash comprising a back member attachable to an inside upper corner of a sash, said back member having a hook at its upper end inclined at an acute angle to said member, and a. resilient element attached to the low er end of said back member and inclined outwardly therefrom with the free end of said element being contiguous said hook and extending therebeyond to guide a pin attached at right angles to a sash frame into the enclosed space between the back member and resilient element, said resilient element engaging such a pin to thereby urge the sash inwardly into its frame as the sash is moved into position.
4. A fastener for a sash comprising a single metal strip formed with a back member to lie against a sash and attachable to an inside upper corner of a sash and having its upper end bent outwardly to form a hook and its lower end bent back on said member at an acute angle thereto to provide a resilient element extending beyond said hook and lying adjacent the end thereof, said resilient element extending beyond said hook to guide a pin attached at right angles to a sash frame into the enclosed space between the back member and resilient element, said element also resiliently receiving such a pin thereagainst to urge the sash inwardly into its frame as the sash is moved upwardly into its frame.
