The first and second frame components are constructed to permit arrangement of the first and second frame components in an assembled state and a nested state with respect to one another. In the assembled state, the first screw bosses are correspondingly aligned with the second screw bosses, and the first and second frame components are secured to each other. In the nested state, at least one of the first screw bosses of the first frame component is mated with at least one of the second grip sockets of the second frame component. | 06-06-2013 |
| 20130212973 | WINDOW MULL SYSTEM - A mull binder system includes a mull binder that couples a first and second window frame and provides a seal along the grooves. The first window frame has an exterior side, an opposing interior side and at least a first side and a second side extending perpendicular to the exterior side and interior side, the first side including a groove therein. A second window frame has an exterior side, an opposing interior side and a first side and a second side extending perpendicular to the exterior side and interior side, the second side including a groove therein. The mull binder has a first and second arm coupled thereto. Each arm has a plurality of flexible barbs extending therefrom. The barbs on the first arm and second arm are received within the groove of the first window frame and second window frame respectively. | 08-22-2013 |
| 20140123589 | WINDOW FRAME WITH JAMB EXTENDER - A window assembly is described for installation in window openings having different thicknesses. A window frame having parallel side jambs, a header and a sill having inner and outer edges, and forming a rectangular opening is provided. C-shaped clamps are attached to the inner faces of the jambs, header and sill. The clamps include inwardly extending inner and outer side arms spaced at a given width, and an inner side. A rectangular extender frame is formed of four rectangular boards having lengths corresponding to the lengths of the frame jambs, header and sill. The extender frame is inserted into the clamps and moved relative to the window frame until the combined thickness of the extender frame and window frame corresponds to the thickness of the opening into which the window frame is to be mounted. Extender trim can be added to hide the clamps. | 05-08-2014 |
| 20140174020 | FRAME JOINT CONNECTOR - A frame the joint connector comprises a first head, a second head and a neck interconnecting the first head and the second head. The first head forms a first shoulder adjacent the neck facing the second head. The second head forms a second shoulder adjacent the neck facing the first head. | 06-26-2014 |
| 20140260063 | SNAP-TOGETHER WINDOW FRAME - A window frame assembly to secure a glass pane within a window opening in a door slab. The assembly preferably includes two identical frame halves carrying bosses on which modular clip members are secure. The clip members each carry a male post member and a female socket member. Each clip member on a half frame engages a corresponding clip member on the other half frame with their female and male socket members engaging the outer surface of the clip member carrying a key member complementary to the keying member. | 09-18-2014 |

| 20080216440 | JOINT CONSTRUCTION, FITTING AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF FITTING - Since an inside piece of a joint block is abutted to a rib of a second opposed piece under a pressure by engaging a first opposed piece of a frame member with the joint block, the inside piece can be securely abutted at the position of the rib even when the second opposed piece and the joint block are slightly deformed, which secures a predetermined joint intensity by preventing a variation of the abutment position. Since the joint block is abutted with the rib, the pressure per a dimension can be more increased than abutting with the whole surface of the inside piece, which consequently increases the frictional force to improve the joint intensity. | 09-11-2008 |
