Stop For A Slidable Window

View page
US Patent:
6484444, Nov 26, 2002
Filed:
Nov 14, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/713159
Inventors:
Allen D. Polowinczak - Plainfield IL
Assignee:
Ashland Products, Inc. - Lowell IN
International Classification:
E05B 5500
US Classification:
49449
Abstract:
A window stop ( ) for limiting movement of a sliding window along a predetermined path of window movement is provided. The window stop ( ) has a housing ( ) having a cavity ( ) wherein the housing ( ) is adapted to be positioned adjacent the path of window movement. A bolt ( ), operatively associated with the cavity ( ), is moveable between a first position (BP ) within the housing ( ) and thereby out of the path of window movement, and a second position (BP ) extending out of the housing ( ) into the path of the window movement whereby the window is able to contact the bolt ( ). A securing element ( ) exerts a force generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing and on the bolt ( ) to retain the bolt at the first position (BP ). When a second force is applied to overcome the force exerted by the securing element ( ), a biasing element ( ) displaces the bolt ( ) toward the second position (BP ). The bolt ( ) receives forces from the window contacting the extended bolt ( ), and the forces are distributed throughout the housing ( ).

Spring Balance Assembly

View page
US Patent:
6802105, Oct 12, 2004
Filed:
Jul 12, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/194445
Inventors:
Allen D. Polowinczak - Plainfield IL

Assignee:
Ashland Products, Inc. - Lowell IN
International Classification:
E05F 114
US Classification:
16198, 16 76, 16DIG 16, 49446
Abstract:
The present invention provides a spring balance assembly for use with a sash window. The spring balance assembly comprises a plate, clip, pivot brake assembly, and first and second coil springs. The plate has a first portion, second portion, and a generally perpendicular transition portion thereby defining a cavity proximate the first portion. The cavity accommodates hardware mounted to the sash window during sliding movement of the sash window. The first coil spring is rotatably supported on a first spool and the second coil spring is rotatably supported on a second spool. A lower end of the first spring is connected to an attaching element of the clip. A lower end of the second spring is connected to a first wall of the pivot brake assembly and the clip is connected to the first wall to secure the first and second springs to the pivot brake assembly.

US Patent:
6832792, Dec 21, 2004
Filed:
Aug 14, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/219059
Inventors:
Allen D. Polowinczak - Plainfield IL
Vincent F. Eslick - Chicago IL
Assignee:
Newell Operating Company - Freeport IL
International Classification:
E05C 106
US Classification:
292 36, 292DIG 47, 292DIG 33, 292163, 292145
Abstract:
A tilt-latch ( ) adapted for releasably securing a sash window ( ) to a master frame ( ) of a window sash assembly ( ) is disclosed. The tilt-latch ( ) comprises a housing ( ) having an outward end opening ( ) and an inner wall ( ). A latch bolt ( ) is disposed within the housing ( ) and has a nose ( ) adapted for engaging a respective one of a pair of guide rails ( ) of the window assembly ( ). The latch bolt ( ) also has at least one protrusion ( ). The latch bolt ( ) is moveable between a deployed position wherein the nose ( ) extends through the outward end opening ( ) and the protrusion ( ) is spaced from the inner wall ( ), and a retracted position wherein the protrusion ( ) engages a trailing edge ( ) of the inner wall ( ) to maintain the latch bolt ( ) in the retracted position.

Stop For A Slidable Window

US Patent:
6854214, Feb 15, 2005
Filed:
Oct 1, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/262549
Inventors:
Allen D. Polowinczak - Plainfield IL, US
Assignee:
Ashland Products, Inc. - Lowell IN
International Classification:
E05B055/00
US Classification:
49449
Abstract:
A window stop () for limiting movement of a sliding window along a predetermined path of window movement is provided. The window stop () has a housing () having a cavity () wherein the housing () is adapted to be positioned adjacent the path of window movement. A bolt (), operatively associated with the cavity (), is moveable between a first position (BP) within the housing () and thereby out of the path of window movement, and a second position (BP) extending out of the housing () into the path of the window movement whereby the window is able to contact the bolt (). A securing means () exerts a force generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing and on the bolt () to retain the bolt at the first position (BP). When a second force is applied to overcome the force exerted by the securing means (), a biasing means () displaces the bolt () toward the second position (BP). The bolt () receives forces from the window contacting the extended bolt (), and the forces are distributed throughout the housing ().
