Abstract
A brake system for a window assembly comprises a track liner having two generally parallel sides defining a pocket, opposed grooves extending along the sides of the track liner, each groove being defined by a flange extending along the track liner, a base mounted for sliding along the track liner, a brake plate connected to the base and mounted for sliding along the track liner, within the grooves, the brake plate being flexibly connected to the base to enable the brake plate to move relative to the base when the brake plate is moving along the groove, a pair of brake shoes connected to the base and mounted for sliding along the track liner, the flange on each side of the track liner being positioned between the brake plate and a brake shoe, and a receiver actuable to urge the brake shoes and brake plate toward each other to grip the flange in a braking action.
