Abstract

A dynamic stain glass window utilizing a plurality of moving traditional stain glass windows to create a changing lighted image to the viewer combined with a motorized drive system to provide the rotational movement of the windows.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A dynamic stain glass window assembly utilizing a fixed traditional stain glass window and a moveable traditional stain glass window creating a moving light pattern to be displayed comprising in cooperative combination:
 a) a display unit having a front, a back, a top, and bottom and a pair of sides for mounting and containing;   b) a first stain glass window fixedly attached in said front of said display unit;   c) a second stain glass window moveably mounted within said display unit and positioned on the same horizontal axis as said first stain glass window;   d) a plurality of idler pulleys for said moveably mounted second stain glass window;   e) a bogie wheel for said moveably mounted second stain glass window; and   f) a drive motor cooperatively connected to said bogie wheel for driving said bogie wheel and rotating said moveably mounted second stain glass window;   
     thereby creating a dynamically changing stain glass window image. 
   
   
       2 . A dynamic stain glass window assembly utilizing a fixed traditional stain glass window and a plurality of moveable traditional stain glass windows creating a moving light pattern to be displayed comprising in cooperative combination:
 a) a display unit having a front, a back, a top, and bottom and a pair of sides for mounting and containing;   b) a first stain glass window fixedly attached in said front of said display unit;   c) a plurality of second stain glass windows moveably mounted within said display unit and positioned on the same horizontal axis as said first stain glass window;   d) a plurality of idler pulleys for each of said plurality of moveably mounted second stain glass windows;   e) a bogie wheel for each of said plurality of moveably mounted second stain glass windows; and   f) a drive motor cooperatively connected to each of said bogie wheels for driving said drive wheel and rotating said plurality of moveably mounted second stain glass windows;   
     thereby creating a dynamically changing stain glass window image. 
   
   
       3 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 2  wherein, said plurality of moveably mounted second stain glass windows comprise two stain glass windows. 
   
   
       4 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 1  wherein, said first stain glass window comprises a clear beveled glass patterned window and said second stain glass window comprises a stain glass patterned window. 
   
   
       5 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 2  wherein, said first stain glass window comprises a clear beveled glass patterned window, and said plurality of second stain glass windows comprise patterned stain glass windows. 
   
   
       6 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 5  wherein, said plurality of second stain glass patterned windows all have the same pattern. 
   
   
       7 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 5  wherein, said plurality of second stain glass patterned windows all have different patterns. 
   
   
       8 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 2  wherein, said plurality of second stain glass windows rotate in opposite directions to each other. 
   
   
       9 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 2  wherein, said plurality of second stain glass windows rotate in the same direction to each other. 
   
   
       10 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 1  wherein, said second stain glass window has a variable speed of rotation. 
   
   
       11 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 10  wherein, said variable speed of rotation is controlled by a rheostat. 
   
   
       12 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 2  wherein, said plurality of second stain glass windows has a variable speed of rotation. 
   
   
       13 . The dynamic stain glass window assembly as claimed in  claim 12  wherein, said variable speed of rotation is controlled by a rheostat.
