| 052204610 | Decorative grill attached to sash | 8 |
| 20100154330 | Muntin Clip - A muntin clip has a bar support adapted to be connected to a muntin bar end and a base member adapted to be connected to a spacer frame. The bar support has a plurality of flexible support members attached thereto, which are adapted to contact the opposed interior walls of the muntin bar end and deform in response to such contact. The base member has two flexible members forming a flexible latching structure which is adapted to deform when inserted into the spacer frame. The muntin clip to be used with muntin bars and spacer frames having a range of different dimensions and configurations. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100236167 | Divided light windows having magnetically-attached grids - An improved simulated authentic divided-light windows, includes an internal muntin grid structure sandwiched between the panes of a double-glazed sealed window pane, and an external muntin grid removably attached to each side of the sealed window pane. The internal grid is equipped with multiple neodymium magnets, which are embedded in the grid structure at regular intervals, while the back side of each of the outer muntin grid structures is equipped with multiple steel or iron inserts which align with the neodymium magnets when the outer grids are positioned, as intended, on the sash. Outer grids used on the inside of a building can be made of wood or plastic. Outer grids used on the exterior of building are preferably made of extruded aluminum or other weather resistant material. The steel or iron inserts are threadably secured or adhesively bonded to apertures in the back side of the grid. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20110131903 | MUNTIN CLIP - A muntin clip comprises a base having an interior face and an opposed exterior face. The interior and exterior faces extend between a first end positionable towards the first glazing pane and a second end positionable towards the second glazing pane. A muntin connector extends from the interior face. The muntin connector comprises a tongue receivable within the muntin bar and frictionally securable therein. A seal connector extends from the exterior face. The seal connector comprises a side plate positionable between the seal and the first glazing pane. The side plate has an inner face positionable to face the seal and an opposed outer face. At least one tooth extends from the inner face. The at least one tooth is insertable into the seal. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20110239560 | Glass Panel Rail Support System - A support rail having replaceable decorative side covers for mounting a glass panel on a window, door frame or other mounting structure. The support rail includes opposed longitudinally extending rail sections that cooperate to define an upper U-shaped channel for receiving an edge portion of a glass panel and a lower inverted U-shaped channel for receiving a portion of a mounting structure. A clamping assembly carried by the rail sections operatively connects the sections together to effect securement of the rail to the glass panel and mounting structure. A pair of decorative side covers are slidably mounted along the rail sections by means of flanges formed at the upper and lower ends of the side covers that project into grooves formed in the rail section. A pair of end plates are removably mounted on the rail sections for holding the side covers in place on the rail sections and allowing the removal thereof. | 10-06-2011 |

| 20140230350 | Removable Interior Window Trim System and Method - A removable interior window trim system and method is comprised of either cut to size trim pieces or a pre-fabricated trim unit sized to insert within the jambs of a window and secure to the jamb and/or window frame and cover any existing mullions. The trim system can be secured in many ways, such as trim nails, adhesives, or spring loaded stops. The resulting trim system is particularly useful in creating a more expensive looking window during the course of window installation, but can also be used to retroactively improve the look of existing windows while allowing the user to change systems to create different looks without installing a new window. | 08-21-2014 |
| 20140331577 | MODULAR FENESTRATION SYSTEM - A modular fenestration system includes a collection of standardized functional units such as double hung window units, casement window units, picture window units, transom units, and the like. The functional units all share common sightlines, common glass set-back, common interfaces, common design language, and are sized according to a unique modular or incremental sizing grid. The sizing grid specifies individual window units in terms of the rough opening size in which they are designed to be installed. Individual functional units are easily combinable in a vast array of combinations to create a large number of possible composite window units. The above attributes of the functional units ensures that the composite window units are architecturally pleasing and appear as though they were custom crafted. The system also includes a collection of interior and interior trim units in various architectural styles that can be attached to installed standardized functional units via the common interfaces to match the architecture of a particular home or building. A collection of matching architectural grilles and hardware also are provided, and the trim units, grills, and hardware are all historically and period accurate to represent a wide variety of architectures both past and present. Exterior and interior trim can be built up from a limited number of standard components that can be combined in a large number of ways to create a wide variety of trim profiles. | 11-13-2014 |
| 20150143761 | DECORATIVE INSERT FOR A WINDOW - A decorative insert is positionable between a pair of glazing panes of a windows and includes a decorative element. At least a first spacer connector extends from the decorative element for securing the decorative element to a spacer of the window. The first spacer connector includes at least one plate positionable between the spacer and one of the glazing panes. At least a first muntin connector extends from the decorative element for securing the decorative element to a first muntin bar of the window. The first muntin connector includes a protrusion securable to the first muntin bar by friction fit. | 05-28-2015 |
