Improvements in the Pulley Styles of Sash-window Frames.
We, AMOS GEORGE BULLIVANT, AMOS REED BULLIVANT, WILLIAM REED
BULLIVANT, and JOHN BULLIVANT, all of Moston Lane, Harpurhey, near Man-
chester, Builders and Contractors, do hereby declare the nature of our said
invention to be as follows:-
Our invention relates to the frames of sash windows, and has for its object to
simplify the formation of the usual gaps or openings in the pulley styles of
such frames for receiving the sash pulleys, and our said invention consists in
cutting the said openings from the top edge of the style, in lieu of mortising
such openings as heretofore, and in mounting a plain sash-cord pulley, without
the usual plate or fittings, directly between the sides of the openings, with a
strong pin or rod driven through the substance of the wood and across the open-
ings to serve as the pulley axles.
Improvements in the Pulley Styles of Sash-window Frames.
We, AMOS GEORGE BULLIVANT, AMOS REED BULLIVANT, WILLIAM REED
BULLIVANT, and JOHN BULLIVANT, all of Moston Lane, Harpurhey, near Man-
chester, Builders & Contractors, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
Our invention relates to the frames of sash windows and has for its object to
simplify the formation of the usual gaps or openings in the pulley styles of
such frames for receiving the sash pulleys, and our said invention consists in
cutting the said openings from the top edge of the style in lieu of mortising
such openings as heretofore and in mounting a plain sash-cord pulley without
the usual plate or fittings, directly between the sides of the openings with a
strong pin or rod driven through the substance of the wood and across the open-
ings to serve as the pulley axles.
On the accompanying drawings Fig. 1 is a front view and Fig. 2 an edge view
of a pulley style with the openings for the sash cord pulleys cut or formed in

page_text: accordance with our invention. Figs. 3 and 4 illustrate one of the pulleys and the
axle separately.
The openings or gaps (A) are by preference formed at one cut by the sawing
machine forming the subject of application for Letters Patent No. 13470, A.D.
1899, or the sawing machine forming the subject of Application for Letters
Patent No. 13471, A.D. 1899.
The hole (B) for the pulley axle (C) is also, by preference, drilled by the same
machine, and the said axle serves as the axle for both pulleys (D).
The advantages of our invention are that the cost of the style and its fittings,
also the work of fixing the pulleys, as compared with the ordinary style, is con-
siderably less, whilst the mounting of the pulleys is much more satisfactory.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is:-
1: A pulley style for sash window frames with openings (A), a pin passing
through the style and across the openings, and a pulley within each opening and
both pulleys mounted upon the said pin, as set forth.
