Title: Interior window with integrated blind
Inventor: LYNESS PATRICK L
IPC: E06B9/264
Filed: 2004-04-30
Abstract: The interior window with integrated blind is a window adapted for use in a hospital setting to provide a patient with privacy in his or her hospital room while at the same time allowing a doctor or nurse to easily view the patient. The window includes: a substantially airtight encasement formed from two panes of glass that are secured to opposite sides of a spacer frame, a blind assembly encased within the airtight encasement, and a separate blind control extending from each of the two sides of the airtight encasement to allow for adjustment of the blind from either side of the wall in which the window is installed. The window is specifically dimensioned to fit in the glazing pocket of a window frame for a commercial building. An alternative embodiment, configured for areas of a hospital where control of the blind is appropriate from only one side of the window, includes only one blind control. This embodiment is identical to the first embodiment with the exception that one of the blind controls is missing.
