ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a weather strip and balance assembly for a window of a tilt sash type. The assembly includes a mounting plate for mounting the balance assembly thereon with a weather strip being clipped thereto and supporting the sash in a sliding and sealing manner. The weather strip has a pair of curved supporting ridges which mount the sash at conventional grooved surfaces along the stiles of the same and a recessed divider portion between the curved ridges in the weather strip provides for mounting and movement of the coupling pins which connect the balance assemblies to the sash and permit tilt of the sash on the weather strip. The mounting members on the sash for coupling the pins thereto provide mating keyed surfaces such that the pins rotate with the sash. These mounting members also include guide surfaces which couple the sash in a closed position and include the provision of a sweep lock member to secure the sash in a closed position. An alternate embodiment of the invention discloses a locking assembly in the form of a locking cord cooperating with the mounting pins to lock the balance assemblies upon tilt of the sash.
