Abstract
An insulative window assembly for use in portable shelter units such as mobile homes, motor homes and trailers. The assembly is attached to the inside wall of the portable shelter unit surrounding the existing window and window molding, but may be easily removed in warm seasons to regain access to the existing window. The frame of the insulating window assembly is of sufficient depth to allow room for the stem of the crank to which the crank handle is attached for opening and closing a jalousie window assembly. The frame of the insulating window assembly contains insulating, sag resisting chambers which contribute to the heat insulative properties of the insulating window. The frame also contains an inner flange and an outer flange which, when bolted to the inside wall of the portable shelter unit, lends stability to the unit and helps prevent the sag and broken seals that frequently result from the vibration and weather forces to which portable shelter units are particularly vulnerable.

6247518 - Window cover system for vehicles

An automotive window cover system comprises a windshield shade having a plurality of panels which jointly cover the extent of the windshield. Fastener strips are releasably joined along the joints between the adjacent panels so as to maintain the panels in place. First and second struts are pivotally attached to each upper panel and engage knobs on the lower panels so as to span the panels and provide rigidity thereto. The system further comprises a side window panel adapted to fit within the frame about a side window of a vehicle. The side window panel includes screened apertures therein and sub-panels which releasably cover such apertures. Removal of the sub-panels allows for passage of air through the screened apertures. A rear vent window shade fits within the rear vent window frame and includes a screen normally extending from the perimeter. Upon opening the rear vent window the screen bridges the gap between the open rear vent window and the vehicle to preclude passage of elements, e.g., insects, therethrough. An alternative embodiment presents a bead adapted for engagement of the edge of the rear vent window with the screen extending from the beads so as to close the opening. The screens can be collectively used as part of the system or individually according to the desires of the user.
