Abstract: A sliding window arrangement has an upper and a lower horizontal guide rail and a vertical rectangular window which is mounted between the guide rails and displaceable along the same. The window has at each upper corner a guide means which engages the upper guide rail, and at each lower corner a guide means which engages the lower guide rail. The lower guide rail has a stop means which is positioned so that the window, when on displacement towards a displacement end position it reaches this position, abuts against the stop means in its lower front corner and, owing to its kinetic energy, is tilted to a tilted position about an imaginary tilt axis extending perpendicular to the window. In the tilted position, the guide means located in the lower rear corner of the window is disengaged from the lower guide rail.
