Abstract
In the illustrated embodiment, the guardrail window assembly includes three outer stationary rectangular superstructures. Each superstructure forms a wall section of the assembly and adjacent superstructures are connected together by vertical posts that rise from the patio or balcony area. Each superstructure longer than four (4) feet has a header, a footer and a pair of upright jambs. Window panes are retained by window frames. Each superstructure has at least one telescoping column uprightly attached to the footer. Each telescoping column includes, in this embodiment, three column segments. The lower column segment is fixed to the footer and the upper column segments telescope from the lower column segment. The window frames are attached on one side to one column segment and the opposing side of the window frame is either set within a groove in the jamb or is affixed to another column segment of an adjacent telescoping column. When the telescoping columns are fully extended to form a fully extended column, the windows are generally vertically aligned to form a windowed wall section. One window is fixed to the footer, to the jamb and to the lower column segment of the column. The other two vertically aligned windows of the window set are vertically movable with respect to the fixed lower window. The vertically movable windows are raised by action of the telescoping column and a cable and motor and/or manual device wherein the cable runs within the window groove in the jamb.
