Abstract
A closure with sashes includes a closure body, an inner sash enclosing around the closure body and including a first upper rail, a first lower rail, a first left stile and a first right stile and an outer sash matchable with the inner sash, including a second upper rail, a second lower rail, a second left stile and a second right stile and adapted to be mounted on a wall of a building wherein there exists a characteristic that the first upper rail is identical to the first lower rail in shape.
 
Claims
What I claim is:

1. Sashes for a closure comprising an outer sash defining a window opening; a pair of relatively moveable, overlapping inner sashes mounted within said outer sash for opening and closing said window opening; said inner sash including a first upper rail, a first lower rail, a first left stile and a first right stile and being adapted to enclose therein a closure body; said outer sash including a second upper rail, a second lower rail, a second left stile and a second right stile and being adapted to be mounted on a wall of a building;

said second upper rail including a central vertical diaphragm plate for separating the cross-sectional area of said second upper rail into two equal parts;



Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a closure, e.g. a door or the like, and more particularly to a closure with sashes.

The known sashes for a closure, e.g. a door(window) shown in FIG. 1, have their sectional views as shown in FIGS. 2 & 3. Such sashes can be criticized in several aspects set out as follows:

(1) Different structural rails or stiles must be used for such sashes which, in this instance, include an upper rail 101, a lower rail 102 and a common stile 103 of the outer sash and upper rail 111, a lower rail 112, a side stile 113 and a meeting stile 114 of the inner sash, all of which amount to 7 different structures. It would be highly appreciated if one could minimize the numbers of different structures.

(2) Owing to the structural nature of upper rail 101 as shown in FIG. 2, the degree that upper rail 111 can be lifted and inclined to enable the inner sash to be detached from upper rail 101 is quite limited. Thus, the disengagement between the inner and outer sashes is difficult.
 
  Two or more fixed doorway panels are permanently interconnected through bracket components carried by opposing vertical edges of the fixed panels which...  A security door for a gate or building opening is formed of a metal frame that defines a pair of hollow stile frame members and upper and lower hollow...
