Abstract
A window locking assembly is disclosed for selectively locking a window sash closed against a window jamb. The assembly includes a motor mounted to the window sash, the motor having an output drive shaft. A keeper is movably mounted to the window sash. A gear train operably connects the motor drive shaft to the keeper for controlling movement of the keeper. The motor moves the keeper to selectively engage the keeper with a cam member secured to the window jamb when the window sash is substantially closed against the window jamb.
