Abstract
A new Adjustable Telescopic Window Security System for facilitating increased security for various sizes of conventional windows while allowing the user to simultaneously adjust the position of the window so as to allow ventilation through the conventional window. The inventive device includes a telescopic security tube adjustable to various sizes of windows, at least one window engaging suction cup to retain the present invention to the conventional window, and a pair a pane engaging caps secured to opposite ends of the telescopic security tube engaging the conventional window pane.
Claims10
An adjustable telescopic window security system for use with a window assembly having at least two window sashes, each said window sash comprising a window sash perimeter frame surrounding a glass pane, said window sashes being mounted in a window frame in a manner permitting slidable movement of said sashes along parallel adjacent paths, said system comprising:
- an elongate telescopic tube having opposite ends, said telescopic tube having an adjustable length between said opposite ends, said telescopic tube comprising an elongate first tube portion and a second tube portion, one said tube portion being telescopically received in the interior of the other said tube portion;
- at least one window engaging suction cup mounted on one of said tube portions in an orientation substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of said tube portion for securing the telescopic tube in a substantially parallel relationship to the class pane of a window, said suction cup being adapted to support said telescopic tube in an adjacent relationship to one of said window sashes and in the slidable movement path of the other said window sash;
- and
- a pair of engaging caps, each said engaging cap being secured to an end of a tube portion such that said telescopic tube may be positioned with one of said engaging caps engaging a window sash frame and the other of said engaging caps engaging a window frame to restrict the movement of said window sash relative to said window frame.
An adjustable telescopic window security system for use with a window assembly having at least two window sashes, each said window sash comprising a window sash perimeter frame surrounding a glass pane, said window sashes being mounted in a window frame in a manner permitting slidable movement of said sashes along parallel adjacent paths, said system comprising:
- an elongate telescopic tube having opposite ends, said telescopic tube having an adjustable length between said opposite ends, said telescopic tube comprising an elongate first tube portion and a second tube portion, one said tube portion being telescopically received in the interior of the other said tube portion, wherein said first tube portion is substantially hollow and said second tube portion is received in said first tube portion, the second tube portion including a plurality of locking apertures generally arranged in a line substantially parallel to the length of said second tube portion;
- at least one window engaging suction cup mounted on one of said tube portions in an orientation substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of said tube portion for securing the telescopic tube in a substantially parallel relationship to the glass pane of a window, said suction cup being adapted to support said telescopic tube in an adjacent relationship to one of said window sashes and in the slidable movement path of the other said window sash;
- a pair of engaging caps, each said engaging cap being secured to an end of a tube portion such that said telescopic tube may be positioned with one of said engaging caps engaging a window sash frame and the other of said engaging caps engaging a window frame to restrict the movement of said window sash relative to said window frame;
- a locking pin secured to the first tube portion and projecting through a hole in the first tube portion and removably projecting into one of said locking apertures of the second tube portion to releasably lock the longitudinal position of said second tube portion with respect to said first tube portion and thereby adjust the length of the telescopic tube to approximate the distance between one of said window sash perimeter frames and the window frame;
- an engaging ring secured to the exterior circumference of the first tube portion, said window engaging suction cup being secured to said engaging ring in a substantially orthogonal orientation to the longitudinal axis of said first tube portion;
- and
- a second window engaging suction cup secured to the exterior of said first tube portion in a substantially orthogonal orientation to the longitudinal axis of said first tube portion.
