A double-hung window construction includes a window jamb and a pair of sashes slidably movable within the window jamb. A pivot member pivotally connects each sash to the window jamb such that the sash can tilt relative to the window jamb around the pivot member. A combined locking and tilting mechanism is attached to each sash. The mechanism is movable between a locked position preventing sliding or tilting of the window an operative, position permitting sliding of the sash and preventing tilting of the sash, and a tilting position which allows the tilting movement of the sash. Each locking and tilting mechanism is independent of the operation of the remaining locking and tilting mechanism.

Why it's free to use
- Filed February 17, 1998. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended February 17, 2018.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 17, 2020.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
