SASH-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 642,872, dated February 6, 1900. Application filed May 23, 1899- 'Seria1No.,'7l7,940. N m el-3 T0 ctZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILL E. OWENS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Billings, in the county of Yellowstone and State of Montana, have invented a new and useful Sash-Holder, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to sash-holders of that class embodying a friction-roller which is adapted to engage either the windo w-frame or the sash and hold the latter in adjusted position.
The object of the present invention is to provide a brake or friction mechanism for the yieldingly-mouuted roller, whereby the latter is prevented from being accidentally turned when the window-sash is being held by the device.
WVith this object in view the invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, which will be hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation of a portion of a window frame and sash having the device applied thereto. Fig. 2 is an enlarged elevation of the device having one side of the casing removed and the slidable frame carrying the roller shown in section. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view on the line 00 m, Fig. 2.
Corresponding parts are designated by like reference characters in all the figures of the drawings.
Referring to the accompanying drawings,
1 designates a window-frame, and 2 a windowsash, these parts being shown to more fully illustrate the application andoperation of the present invention.
It will be understood that two of the devices are employed, preferably mounted in the window-frame and located near the upper end of the lower sash and near the lower end of the upper sash, so that each sash may be engaged by the friction-roller at any -position of the respective sashes.
The operating parts of the device are housed within a casing 3, one edge of which provides a face-plate 4, which has ears 5, extending at opposite sides of the casing and adapted to receive suitable fastenings, whereby the easing may be secured to the window-frame within a suitable socket or recess 6, provided therein.
Located within the casing and slidable transversely thereof is a substantially U- shaped frame 7, having its open end communicating with a slot 8, formed through the face-plate4. Thisframeispreferablyformed from a single sheet of flat metal bent intermediate of its ends to provide the U shape thereof and having its back or bend between the opposite sides bent to form flanges 14. Located within the sliding frame 7 and projecting outwardly through the slot 8 in the face-plate is a friction-roller 9, mounted upon a transverse pivot-pin 10, which has a bearing in the sides of the frame and projects beyond opposite sides thereof. Arranged within the frame, between the back thereof and the friction-roller and in engagement therewith, is a brake-block 11, embracing the periphery of the roller and held firmly thereagainst by means of springs 12. the springs and connected to the back of the frame is a spacing-plate 13 of substantially U shape, the respective sides of which are adapted to space the springs a suitable distance apart and hold them against the flanges 14, provided at opposite ends of the back of the frame. The springs are thus effectually Arranged between mounted within the frame and prevented from being displaced laterally therefrom and are also connected with the brake-block by means of suitable pins 15, carried by the block and extending within the respective coiled springs, whereby the outer ends of the latter are held in place against the back edge of the brake-block. It will be noted that the sides of the U-shaped frame are connected by suitable rivets 0r fastenings 16, which embrace the opposite edges of the brake-block and prevent lateral displacement of the same. As the brake-block is thus firmly held against the periphery of the friction-roller, the latter can be turned only by forcible movement of the window-sash, and therefore the roller is effectually held against rotation when the window-sash has been adjusted to any de* sired point. The friction-roller thus equipped with a brake-block is arranged within the casing 3, and the frame is provided with a bar or strap 17, projecting at opposite sides of the frame and connected with the face plate 4: by means of suitable coiled springs 18. Each of these springs has its inner end engaged with an opening provided in the adjacent end of the strap 17 and its outer end engaged with a suitable hook or eye 19, projected inwardly from the face-plate 4, and is confined between the adjacent sides of the casing, whereby displacement of the springs is prevented. It will be noted that the projecting ends of the strap 17 are adapted to form guides for the frame 7 in its sliding movement within the casing, and by reference to Fig. 3 it will be seen that the oppo site ends 20 of the pivot-pin for the frictionroller project through alined slots 21, provided in the opposite sides of the casing 3, whereby the friction-roller and its carryingframe are effectually guided in the yielding movement thereof.
In the operation of the device the frictionroller is revolved when the sash is moved either up or down and is held against turning by the brake-block when the windowsash has been adjusted, and by reason of the roller being held against turning the windowsash will be held at the adjusted position. By reason of the carrying-frame 7 being yieldingly connected to the face-plate 4 by means of the coiled springs 18 said frame is capable of a yielding movement, whereby the frictionroller is adapted to accommodate itself to any unevenness in the edge of the window-sash; also the springs 18 will take up any wear of the sash or frame, and thereby always hold the sash firmly in the frame and prevent rattling of the sash, as will be understood.
It will be understood that instead of employing a single strap 17 suitable ears may be provided upon the carrying-frame 7 for connection with the inner ends of the coiled springs 18, and other changes in the form, proportion, size, and the minor details of construction within the scope of the appended claims may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
That I claim is- 1. In a sash-holder of the class described, the combination with a casing, of a frame having opposite ears or lugs, springs arranged between the ears or lugs and respective sides of the casing, a friction-roller carried by the frame, and abrake-blockin frictional engagement with the roller, substantially as shown and described.
2. In a sash-holder of the class described, the combination with a casing, of a substantiall y U shaped frame located within the easing and provided with oppositely-extending ears or lugs, springs interposed between the ears and the casing, whereby the frame is yieldingly mounted therein and the ears are adapted to form guides for the frame, a friction-roller mounted within the frame, and a pivot-pin for the roller, said pivot-pin extending transversely through the opposite sides of the frame and slidably mounted in slots provided in opposite sides of the casing, substantially as shown and described.
In a sash-holder of the class described, the combination with a casing, of a substantially U-shaped frame yieldingly mounted within the casing, a friction-roller mounted within and at the open end of the frame, a brake-block located within the frame in frictional engagement with the roller, coiled springs interposed between the brake-block and the back of the frame, and a substantially U-shaped spacing-plate connected to the frame and located between the springs, substantially as shown and described.
4:. In a sash-holder of the class described, the combination with a casing,of a yieldinglymounted frame located within the casing and formed from a single sheet of flat metal bent intermediate of its ends into substantially U -shaped form,havin g the back or bend thereof provided with opposite flanges, a frictionroller mounted within the frame at the open end thereof, a brake-block located within the frame in frictional engagement with the roller and provided with pins extending toward the back of the frame, coiled springs interposed between the back of the frame and the brakeblock and against the respective flanges of the frame, the pins of the block being received within the respective coiled springs, and a substantially U -shaped spacingplate connected to the back of the frame and embracing the inner sides of the respective coiled springs,substantially as shown and described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto aflixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
WILL E. OWENS.
