Publication number: 20040139659Abstract: A window jamb component assembly mountable in the jambs of a double hung window for cooperative engagement with the sash assemblies thereof. The component assembly includes a longitudinally elongated jamb liner having upper and lower segments comprising a pair of channel guides spaced apart by a profiled web. The profiled web defines sequentially aligned recesses, namely an inner weather stripping recess, a jamb filler recess and an outer weather stripping recess. A jamb filler, held by the jamb filler recess, provides a uniformly clad surface for the jambs to match the appearance of the trim of the double hung window. Frame weather stripping for sealingly engaging the sash assemblies of the double hung window is deployed and held in the inner and outer weather stripping recesses. Such assembly provides a visually pleasing finish for the window jambs, while providing improved cooperation between the window jamb and the sash assemblies.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 2, 2004Publication date: July 22, 2004Applicant: Marvin Lumber and Cedar CompanyInventors: Leslie B.

Patent number: 6305125Abstract: A window guide assembly for an automobile window includes at least one guide portion provided in the main body of an automobile door for guiding movement of the window, and also includes a plurality of contact members provided on opposing portions of the guide portion. The contact members are arranged to oppose the window so that the contact members slidably contact the inner and outer surfaces of the side edge of the window. The guide portion is constituted by a lower sash provided in the main body of the door. The contact members, provided on at least one side of the opposing portions, are elastic. The contact members are claw-shaped, in approximately the form of a C-shaped cross-section, and only one end of the C-shaped cross section of each of the claw-shaped members is fixed to the lower sash. Further, the contact members may be removably fixed by mounting the contact members in mounting portions of the lower sash.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 1998Date of Patent: October 23, 2001Assignee: Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masahiro Nozaki, Katsunori Kawai

Patent number: 5855092Abstract: A double hung window having a tiltable sash includes a sash brake for preventing movement of the sash along the jambs while in the tilted position. The preferred sash includes respective tongues extending along the stiles that are configured for reception in corresponding channels in the jambs for slidably mounting the sash and providing a seal between the stiles and window frame. The preferred brake elements each include a base configured for fitting within a groove of a respective tongue and a brake shoe that extends into the channel. Each shoe has a length greater than the width of channel so that when the sash is tilted, the shoe engages the channel side walls to provide braking against movement while in the tilted position.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 1997Date of Patent: January 5, 1999Assignee: Pella CorporationInventors: Daniel L. Raap, Scot C. Miller

Patent number: 5131504Abstract: A car door seal, comprising a brush, is utilized to seal the openings between a closed car door and an elevator car and to minimize backlash between the car doors and the car. By utilizing a brush, such uneven openings are effectively sealed because the brushes bend for narrower openings between the car door and the car. The brush also provides an effective damping and spring force between the door and the car. As a result, door rattle, caused by backlash and aerodynamically induced vibration loads during car travel, is minimized thereby minimizing vibration and noise within the interior of the car.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 1991Date of Patent: July 21, 1992Assignee: Otis Elevator CompanyInventors: Young S.
