A screen system for use with a sliding panel of a window or door to screen an opening as the sliding panel or door is opened. The screen is attached to the edge of the sliding panel adjacent the opening, and is wound onto a spindle. The spindle is rotatably mounted adjacent the screen opening so that the screen can be unwound from or wound onto the spindle. A cord is connected between the sliding panel and the spindle pulley via an idler pulley. The spindle is caused to rotate to wind the screen onto the spindle as the sliding panel is slid towards the closed position. While the screen is wound off the spindle, the cord is wound onto the spindle pulley and vice versa. A tension adjustment arrangement is provided for adjusting the tension in the cable as the screen is wound and unwound from the spindle.

The present invention relates to an installation structure of a glass fixing gasket and a window glass panel fixing bracket, which fixes a window glass panel of a fixed window included in a sliding window system which comprises a segmented window frame and, more specifically, to an installation structure of a glass fixing gasket and a window glass panel fixing bracket, wherein the glass fixing gasket and the window glass panel fixing bracket are installed between a window frame portion which supports three sides (an upper surface, a lower surface, and one external side surface that is not a middle bar side surface) of a fixed window included in a sliding window and a window glass panel provided as a double-pane, in order to provide a sealing function for preventing ventilation and a function of stably fixing the window glass panel against high wind pressure (wind pressure resistance), and moreover, to ensure maximum heat insulation performance.

An astragal for a fenestration system includes at least first and second slots running along opposite sides of the astragal, each slot is configured to receive a stile of a panel of the fenestration system. The slots may be in different planes or in a common plane, and may be different depths or the same depth. In some embodiments, additional slots are provided in the astragal, on one or both sides of the astragal, and the astragal may be used in various placements and configurations within multi-panel door or window systems. A snap clip may be included within one or more of the slots to engage a stile when received in the slot and secure the panel to the astragal. Covers may fill slots that are not utilized in a particular panel configuration.

The present disclosure relates to a windows and doors assembly having a ventilation function and a horizontal contact function, and more particularly to a horizontal contact windows and doors assembly for crime prevention and security functions by preventing a window from being open even when the window is slightly open and it is possible to ventilate with the outside air. To achieve the objective of the present disclosure, the windows and doors assembly having a ventilation function and a horizontal contact function includes a window frame, and a windowsill in which the window frame is slidably installed, a handle rotatably installed on the window frame, an engagement unit provided on a lateral surface of the window frame, linked to movement of the handle, and moved in upward and downward directions, an engagement guide provided on the windowsill to face the engagement unit and configured to catch or not catch the engagement unit depending on a position of the engagement unit, and a horizontal moving device provided on at least one of a top surface or a bottom surface of the window frame, linked to the handle, and configured to make the window frame horizontally come into contact with the windowsill or to release horizontal contact depending on movement of the handle, and in this case, when a contact state of the window with respect to the windowsill by the horizontal contact device is released while a catching operation between the engagement unit and the engagement guide is performed, it is possible to ventilate through a gap between the window and the windowsill, the window is restrictly moved to form the gap, and the window is prevented from being freely open.

A rear slider window assembly for a vehicle includes a fixed window panel and a movable window panel that is movable between a closed position and an opened position. The movable window panel includes a laminated movable window panel having an electrical element disposed between an inner glass panel and an outer glass panel. The first electrical element is in electrical connection with a wire harness of the vehicle via a flexible connector electrically connected to a first electrical connector at an inner surface of the movable window panel and to a second electrical connector at the inner surface of the fixed window panel. The first electrical connector is electrically connected to the first electrical element via a thin flat connector that extends from the first electrical connector and wraps around a perimeter edge of the inner glass panel of the movable window panel.

A light-weight unitary window assembly for recreational vehicles and trailers. The window assembly uses a two piece design that seats within the wall or door opening and incorporates a fixed window pane integrally molded into one of the polymer frame halves. The window assembly also uses a plurality of weep holes that extend through the frame halves to vacate water from the window assembly to the exterior of the vehicle or trailer wall. In an exemplary embodiment, the window assembly also includes a sliding window pane that slides along a peripheral track and securely seats in a closed position using a plurality of contact pads to prevent window chatter. The window assembly also includes an integrated latch mechanism to secure the sliding pane.

A configuration of tandem high efficiency primary windows is disclosed as both a structure and method to enhance the energy efficiency of windows. Each of the tandem windows is separately installed, respectively, on the exterior and interior of a building window opening. Each window may be separately operable for opening, closing, and cleaning. The interior window can include a cover, surrounding any part of the frame that protrudes into the interior space, the cover having an air gap for interior air to circulate and remove moisture from the interior surfaces of the interior window and its frame. The space between the windows is vented for removal of water vapor, if necessary, by a tube that extends from the space to the outside or to the cold side of the window opening, the tube having features that prevent the entry of outside into the space between the windows.

The present invention relates to a thermal insulation structure of a door frame in which a moving window (sliding window) constituting a sliding window system is installed, and more particularly, a two-side supporting frame window supporting both sides of a glass window constituting a sliding window system, more particularly, relates to an insulating structure in a side section of a door frame into which the side portion of the sliding window that is moved when closing the sliding window of the supporting frame window type is pocketed, that is, the insulating structure of the side section of the door frame.

A patio door or at least a door panel or a door panel frame for a patio door is provided. The patio door has two panels, wherein one is an active panel (i.e. a sliding panel) and another one is a stationary panel (i.e. a fixed panel). The door panels include at least four elongated door frame members configurable to define rectangular door panels frame with a longitudinal axis and a transversal axis. There is also provided a tightening connector assembly, a connector body with a weatherstrip receiving channel and a door panel connection assembly. The tightening connector assembly includes a connector body having a first and second frame segments extending along a tightening axis and an insert receiving cavity defined therein, the first and second frame segments being engageable with two of the at least four elongated door frame members. The tightening connector assembly also includes a tightening insert engageable in the insert receiving cavity of the connector body.
