METAL sAsH.
Patented Nov. 9, 1909.
To all whom it mag concern: Be it knownflthat I, HENRY H. Fonsr'rfl,
a citizen of'the United States,'residing at- This invention relates to window sash and more especially that'class in yvhich the sash proper is made of resilient metal or other resilient material.
l urthermore, my invention provides a metal sash with a frame-engaging member yieldable laterally through substantially its entire len 'th.
Heretofbre sash have been constructed with a shallow spring metal attachment which has been in the nature of a window strip attached to the body of the sash proper. its a result the resiliency has been hunted; whereas in my invention the frameei'igaging member constitutes an element of the sash frame itself, instead ofbejinga mere addition or attachment thereto.
One of the chief defects in metal sash has been a lack of suitable means for providing ready adjustability thereof. In the case of the ordinary window sash it is, of course, an easy matter to trim off the side members of the sash, so as to adjust the same to varying widths of window 0 enin In a metal sash this is especially iflicu t to do, and
would be likely to involve injury and defacement of the sash.
One of the objects of my invent-ion, therefore, is to providea simple means for ad justing a metal sash to varying widths of window opening.
I also provide in my invention an efficient means for holding the glass in place within the metal frame whereby in case of breakage of the glass, another one may readily be put in its place. This is accomplished by employing wooden or other suitable filling strips, in association with glazing strips which may be readilyapplied and removed to retain the glass in position.
I also provide a simple means for joining the members of the sash to each other, without substantially disturbing the elasticity thereof.
Referring to the drawings, Figure l is a frontelevation view of a metal sashembodying my invention; Fig. 2 is an end elevation View of one of the vertical members; Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view of the lowercross members of the sash on the line a:-w of Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is a modification in cross-section of the cross member in Fig. 3; Fig. 5 is a vertical section of the top cross member of the sash; Fig. 6 is a fragmentary cross-section of a modified form of a vertical member; Fig. 7 is a horizontal section of one of the vertical members of the sash; Figs. 8 and 9 are modifications of the horizontal section in Fig. 7; and Figs. 10 and 11 show two methods of finishing the ends of the. vertical members in the sash so as to permit the sides thereof to yield laterally throughout their entire length.
In the drawings, 1 represents a suitable window frame or opening which may be made of wood or metal, provided with a guide or groove 26; said groove being formed by the side 23 and the strip 24, held in position by screws 25. The window sash is composed of vertical members 2, the top cross member 3 and the lower cross member 4, the vertical members or stiles 2 being made of elastic or resilient material, such as steel. It will be noted that 4 is formed at its lower, edge with an incline, as shown in Fig. 2; .to'conform it to the slant of the window sill. The members of the sash are joined at the four corners thereof by means of the reinforcing block 20, preferably of wood or other non-metallic material which is fastened to-the members by the pins or rivets 21. It will be noted that the block 20 enters the vertical members only a short distance and does not prevent the latter from yielding laterally at their-ends and alon their outer margins. The vertical mein ers of the sash areleft open along their outer margins, which allows them to readily yi ll laterally of the window groove or gui e.
In Figs. 10 and 11, I have shown two methods of finishing the ends of the vertical members. In Fig. 10, the ends of both of the sides are lipped over, leaving space 27 intervening therebetween, while in Fig. 11, this saace occurs between the lipped over end 0' one side and the opposite side of the vertical members.
In Figs. 7, 8 and 9, I show several methods of providing ready adjustability of the sash for varying widths of window opening. In Fig. 7 this is done by employing two strips 10. which are shouldered at 31, where they may bear against the outer edges of the vertical member 2, and are held in position by the brads or rivets 16. It is evident that the strips may be trimmed off to accommodate the variations in window opening, and that, if desired, they may also bear against the sides of groove 26. Between the strips 10 I allow a spacing 28 to permit the sides of the. vertical members to yield laterally. l'n Fig. 8 I show a single strip 11 with corresponding spacing 28. These strips also act as sto s to prevent undue distortion or collapsing of the side of the sash frame under lateral pressure. It must be evident that instead of trimming ofi these strips, they might be adjusted laterally by means of the brads or rivets 16, or by means of a pin-and-slotconnection between them and t e vertical member of the sash. In Fig. 9 I have shown such a piirand-slot connection in the screw 17 and slot The latter is made in a metal strip 12', which can, therefore, be readily adjusted laterally of the vertical member. I have shown a means of holding the glass in position within the sash frame by providing wooden or other suitable filling strips attached to the interior sides of the vertical and cross members of the sash. This attachment may be accomplished in a number of Ways, and among others in the manner I have illustrated in the drawings, in which I provide a groove 15 in the sash members in which the filling strip 6 is held in position by fitting snugly therein, or by means of the pins 14. The glass 5 is held against the filling strip 6 by glazing strip 7 and by means of the brads 13. It must be evident that the groove 15 can be formed in a various number of ways, either by bending the inner margins of the sash members back upon'themselves, as in Figs. 3, 5, 7 and 9, or by providing a special grooved or channel strip and attaching samev to the inner margins of the members as in Figs. 4 and 8; in which 8 is the grooved metal strip and 29 the rivets ioldingsame to said members. In ,Fig. 6 I have shown a different way of formin vthis groove, in which there is provi ed a spacing 33, which-allows the \'e1'tical members of the sash to yield laterally throughout its entire width. The pin 14 in this case has a slidabl'e engagement with the sides of the vertical sash members.
I Wish it to be understood that. I do not desire to limit the scope of my invention to the various forms or constructions herein shown; also that while I have spoken of the sash as a metal one, I desire to include in this term any material in which there is present sufficient strength and resiliency to accomplish the purpose of a yicldable sash hereinabove set forth.
