A novel and useful frame less supplemental window for fenestration suitable for use with existing windows. The supplemental window, in one embodiment, comprises plastic sheet material with bullnose edging around it. Corner braces add rigidity and strength to corners in several embodiments. An attachment mechanism secured either to the sheet material or the bullnose edge functions to fasten and/or seal the supplemental window to an existing window. The bullnose edging functions to substantially enclose (i.e. trap) a volume of air between the window pane and the plastic sheet material. The supplemental window is configured such that the layer of trapped air is of an optimum thickness within a preferred range of 0.15 to 0.75 inches to maximize thermal insulation properties of the supplemental window.

A window with display function includes a window frame, a window body embedded in the window frame, a flexible display screen, an electronic element. The window body includes a first glass layer and a second glass layer spaced from each other. The flexible display screen is between the first glass layer and the second glass layer. A house using the window is also related.

A novel and useful frameless supplemental window for fenestration incorporating infiltration blockers suitable for use with existing windows. The supplemental window, in one embodiment, comprises plastic sheet material with bullnose edging around it. Corner braces add rigidity and strength to corners in several embodiments. An attachment mechanism secured either to the sheet material or the bullnose edge functions to fasten and/or seal the supplemental window to an existing window. Infiltration blockers fastened to the sheet or bullnose prevent or minimize air leakage around various window elements. The bullnose edging and infiltration blockers function to substantially enclose (i.e. trap) a volume of air between the window pane and the plastic sheet material. The supplemental window is configured such that the layer of air enclosed is of an optimum thickness within a preferred range of 0.15 to 0.75 inches to maximize thermal insulation properties of the supplemental window.

In an aspect, an insulation kit for insulating an interior side of a window is provided. The window includes a window pane and a window frame having a window aperture in which the window pane is mounted, and at least one surface on the interior side of the window which extends around an exterior edge of the window aperture. The insulation kit includes a adhesive member and a sheet of insulating, biodegradable film sized to be mounted to a surface of the window frame by the adhesive member so as to cover the window aperture, and being heat shrinkable to form an airtight seal, insulating the window pane on the interior side of the window. The sheet of film is constructed to be mounted to the at least one surface of the window frame for a period of at least four months before degradation of the film occurs.

Aspects disclosed herein relate to a fenestration supplement system and methods of using such a system. In one aspect, the fenestration supplement system includes a fenestration supplement frame member that is configured to accept three or more fenestration supplements. In another aspect, a fenestration supplement frame member has opposing first and second ends that each receives fenestration supplements, connectors and/or hardware (such as mounting hardware). In yet another aspect, a fenestration supplement frame member includes specially shaped grooves that can accept and retain different types of connectors.

An insulating kit for a window. A kit includes a frame member in segments secured to a window frame. A window insulating film is attached to the frame members and extends over an opening in the window frame. A segmented cap is mated to the frame member segments and secures the insulating film between the cap and the frame member. The insulating film can be replaced by separating the cap from the frame member, removing and then replacing the film, and then securing the cap to the frame member.

A supplemental window apparatus includes a foot and a first constraint element attached to the foot. The foot and the first constraint element are configured to be detachably coupled to a window pane of an existing window through a mating constraint element. A spacer is coupled to the foot and is configured to extend at least partially in a direction perpendicular to the window pane when installed on the existing window. A substantially non porous sheet is coupled to the spacer and has a sheet area substantially similar to a window pane area defined by the interior surfaces of the first window element holding the window pane. The spacer substantially defines a gap between the sheet and the window pane when installed on the existing window. The foot extends outward from the spacer toward the interior surfaces of the first window element.

A window insulation system comprising a flexible frame, an insulating film, attached and surrounded by the flexible frame, for insulating the interior of a home from the window, at least one support wrapped around a portion of the flexible frame, wherein the at least one support is configured to maintain a frame shape around the window, and a valve, attached to the flexible frame, configured to control the inflation of the flexible frame, to seal the window.

A window insulating film roll and kit for insulating windows or a sheet such as a bug screen for covering other types of dwellings. The window insulating film of translucent or transparent polymer has a pair of longitudinal edges and a pair of lateral edges transverse to the longitudinal edges, a strip of adhesive along one of the longitudinal edges, a releasable backing strip covering the strip of adhesive. The window insulating film is rolled about an axis generally parallel to the longitudinal edges starting with the longitudinal edge away from the backing strip to form an elongated film roll, the elongated film roll being rolled about an axis generally transverse to the longitudinal edges to form a window insulating film roll, A dispenser has a receptacle for rollingly receiving the window insulating film roll, a dispensing outlet being defined in a wall of the receptacle for a free end of the window insulating film roll to pass therethrough during dispensing.
