The present invention relates to limiter assemblies for windows, such as casement windows, which limit the extent to which the window may be opened. A limiter assembly (10) comprises a housing assembly (12) including a first elongate limiting member (18) and a second elongate limiting member (20) and a pair of latch assemblies (14). Each of the first and second limiting members (18, 20) has an anchor end (22) and a latch end (24). Each latch assembly (14) comprises a latch mechanism for releasably engaging the latch end (24) of one of the first and second limiting members (18, 20). The latch assemblies (14) are secured to a casement (4) or the frame (6) and the housing assembly (12) is secured to the other of the casement (4) or the frame (6), and the extent of opening of the casement (4) is limited by the limiting members (18, 20) when the latch ends (24) are engaged with the latch mechanisms. Each of the latch mechanisms are operable to disengage a respective one of the limiting members (18, 20) to allow the casement (4) to be fully opened, and the limiting members (18, 20) are retractable into a casing (16) of the housing assembly (12) and are biased towards a retracted position.

The cross joint millingmachine (10) is arranged to cut frame members for use with glazing products and in particular for window/door glazing panels. The frame members comprise Georgian bars, astragal bars and other glazing bars/elements. The cross joint milling machine (10) is arranged to cut a first bevel section (22) and a second bevel section (24) within a frame member (20) which acts as a work piece in the machine arrangement. The cross joint milling machine (10) is also arranged to cut a groove (26) extending between the first bevel section (22) and the second bevel section (24). The interconnecting groove (26) is either cut on the rear face (32) of the frame member (20) or the front face (30) of the frame member (20) and partially extends through the depth of the frame member (20). In particular, this groove cut may extend half way through the depth of the frame member (20). Accordingly, in one pair of intersecting frame members (20, 40), a first frame member (20) has a groove (26) cut in to the front face (30) whilst the second frame member (40) has a groove (46) in to the rear face (50).The cross joint milling machine (10) is portable and can be easily transported by a user and hence used on site at an assembly location. Accordingly, this portability enables a user to quickly and easily and accurately produce crossjoints in frame members at the assembly location.
A sash window restrictor (20) has a housing (22) which is to be let into a vertical frame member (10) of one sash (normally the upper, outer sash) of a window, at a position, say, 10 cm above the top rail of the lower sash when the windows are closed. A tab (24) is mounted in the housing and can be retracted into the housing or extended from the housing. A mechanism acts between the tab and the housing and allows the tab to be pressed into the housing and held in the housing for a period of time before the tab is released to allow the tab to extend. With the tab extended, the lower sash (12) can be lifted until it reaches the tab (24) but no further, so that a 10 cm gap will be opened at the bottom of the window.

The present invention provides a window status sensor system which may be of particular use with a casement window of a domestic property. The window status sensor system may cooperate with or may be integrated into a home automation system. The present invention provides a window status sensor system which provides positive feedback on the status of the actual locking mechanism and the position of the locking rod 18. In particular, the present invention provides a signal concerning the position of the locking rod 18 and the associated locking lugs 20. Accordingly, a user will know that the window 10 is actually locked rather than being merely in a closed position. The window status sensor system detects and monitors the actual position of the locking rod 18 rather than merely monitoring the position of the window sash 14 and/or the locking handle 16 etc. Accordingly, this feedback provides positive reassurance that the locking lugs 20 are actually in an engaged/locked position.

The present invention provides a locking unit 3 which is arranged to be fitted to existing casement window winding mechanisms. The winder assembly 1 comprises a winding mechanism 2 which is arranged to move the casement window outwardly or inwardly. In particular, the winder assembly 1 comprises a handle 48 which is rotated by a user in a first direction to open the window and in a second direction to close the window. The present invention provides a restrictor for restricting the opening of the casement window beyond a predetermined distance. In particular, the present invention is arranged to enable a user to wind the handle 48 until the casement window reaches the predetermined distance. The restrictor is automatically reset once the casement window is moved back or towards the closed position such that the casement window is within the predetermined restricted initial opening distance.

The window restrictor (10) of the present invention may be used to limit the opening of a casement hinged window. The restrictor (10) comprises a restrictor member (12) and a latch mechanism (14). Typically, the restrictor member (12) is attached to a stile or rail (16) of the moving window pane and the latch mechanism (14) is attached to a part of the casing or frame 18 surrounding the window opening. In use, the restrictor member (12) is engaged with the latch mechanism (14) so that as the window is opened, the extent of opening is restricted by the length of the restrictor member (12). To fully open the window, the restrictor member (12) must be disengaged from the latch mechanism (14). When the restrictor member (12) and latch mechanism (14) are disengaged, they remain in such a configuration that, when the window is closed, the restrictor member (12) and latch mechanism (14) automatically re-engage to prevent the window being fully opened again. This means that it is not necessary to remember to reattach or reset the restrictor (10) each time the window is opened and closed. In addition, the restrictor member (12) comprises a hinged member which includes bias means which urges the restrictor member to lie adjacent to and flush with the window pane in the fully opened and disengaged position.
