Abstract
A screen window replacement device includes a window that has a screen window opening and a screen window which is removably insertable into the screen window opening. A frame is provided and the frame is removably insertable into the screen window opening to replace the screen window with the frame. A window pane is integrated into the frame to inhibit wind from blowing through the screen window opening when the frame is inserted into the screen window opening. A pair of springs is each movably attached to the frame to retain the frame in the screen window opening and a pair of pull tabs is each coupled to the frame. The pair of pull tabs can be pulled upon by the user to remove the frame from the screen window opening.

A screen window replacement device comprising:
- a window having a screen window opening;
- a screen window being removably insertable into said screen window opening;
- a frame being structured to have a height and a width which corresponds to a height and a width of said screen window opening in said window, said screen window being removable from said screen window opening having frame being removably insertable into said screen window opening to replace said screen window with said frame;
- a window pane being integrated into said frame such that said frame surrounds said window pane, said window pane being comprised of a fluid impermeable material wherein said window pane is configured to inhibit wind from blowing through said screen window opening when said frame is inserted into said screen window opening, said fluid impermeable material comprising a translucent material wherein said window pane is configured to pass light through said window pane such that a user can see through said window pane when said frame is inserted into said screen window opening;
- a pair of springs, each spring of said pair of springs being movably attached to said frame, each spring of said pair of springs being biased to curve away from said frame, each spring of said pair of springs being compressible toward said frame, said pair of springs compressing against a respective side of said screen window opening when said frame is positioned in said screen window opening wherein said pair of springs is configured to inhibit the wind from blowing said window pane and said frame out of said screen window opening;
- and
- a pair of pull tabs, each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs being coupled to said frame wherein each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs is configured to be pulled upon by the user, each spring of said pair of springs being compressed to travel toward said frame when said pair of pull tabs is pulled upwardly wherein said pair of tabs is configured to be pulled upwardly by the user to remove said frame from said screen window opening.
A screen window replacement device comprising:
- a window having a screen window opening;
- a screen window being removably insertable into said screen window opening;
- a frame being structured to have a height and a width which corresponds to a height and a width of said screen window opening in said window, said screen window being removable from said screen window opening having frame being removably insertable into said screen window opening to replace said screen window with said frame, said frame having a pair of sidelong members each extending between a top member and a bottom member, said pair of sidelong members being oriented parallel to each other and being oriented perpendicular to each of said top member and said bottom member such that said frame has a rectangular shape, each of said pair of sidelong members abutting a respective one of a first lateral side and a second lateral side of said screen window opening, said bottom member abutting a lower side of said screen window opening, said top member abutting an upper side of said screen window opening;
- a window pane being integrated into said frame such that said frame surrounds said window pane, said window pane being comprised of a fluid impermeable material wherein said window pane is configured to inhibit wind from blowing through said screen window opening when said frame is inserted into said screen window opening, said fluid impermeable material comprising a translucent material wherein said window pane is configured to pass light through said window pane such that a user can see through said window pane when said frame is inserted into said screen window opening, said window pane having a perimeter edge, said perimeter edge being recessed into an inwardly facing surface of each sidelong member of said pair of sidelong members and an inwardly facing surface of said top member and an inwardly facing surface of said bottom member such that said window pane is secured to said frame;
- a pair of springs, each spring of said pair of springs being movably attached to said frame, each spring of said pair of springs being biased to curve away from said frame, each spring of said pair of springs being compressible toward said frame, said pair of springs compressing against a respective side of said screen window opening when said pair springs is biased to curve away from said frame when said frame is positioned in said screen window opening wherein said pair of springs is configured to inhibit the wind from blowing said window pane and said frame out of said screen window opening, each spring of said pair of springs being disposed on an outwardly facing surface of said top member of said frame, each spring of said pair of springs being oriented to extend along a line which extends between said pair of sidelong members of said frame, each spring of said pair of springs being spaced from a respective one of said pair of sidelong members of said frame, each spring of said pair of springs being biased to curve upwardly from said outwardly facing surface of said top member;
- and
- a pair of pull tabs, each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs being coupled to said frame wherein each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs is configured to be pulled upon by the user, each spring of said pair of springs being compressed toward said frame when said pair of pull tabs is pulled upwardly wherein said pair of tabs is configured to be pulled upwardly by the user to remove said frame from said screen window opening, each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs being disposed on said inwardly facing surface of said bottom member of said frame, each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs being positioned between said window pane and a rearwardly facing surface of said bottom member, each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs being aligned with a respective spring of said pair of springs, each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs having a back side being directed toward said rearwardly facing surface of said bottom member, each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs having a top end, each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs having a series of ridges on said back side of a respective tab which are spaced apart from each other and are distributed from said top end of said respective tab and said frame wherein said series of ridges on said back side of each pull tab of said pair of pull tabs is configured to enhance a grip of the user on each pull tab when the user grips said pair of pull tabs.
