Abstract
A multi-position window includes a stationary window frame, a sash window frame positioned within the stationary window frame and selectively pivotable out of the stationary window frame about a vertical axis and a horizontal axis, and a drive train positioned between the sash window frame and the stationary window frame. The drive train is preferably moveable between at least a first position which enables the sash window frame to be pivoted about the vertical axis and a second position which enables the sash window frame to be pivoted about the horizontal axis. The drive train is preferably moved by a mechanical actuator having a worm gear, pinion gear and rack which is concealed in the sash window frame to create a pleasing aesthetic appearance and is operatively connected to the drive train to move the drive train from the first position to the second position.
