Abstract

A mounting bracket and window shield assembly for protecting a window of the type found on a subway or bus includes a shield made of a flexible sheet of plastic. The shield is held in place by a mounting bracket which mounts directly to the existing window and window frame on the four sides of the window. The mounting bracket has a T-shaped cross section in which a first arm of the T forms a tab that is inserted between the existing window and window frame. The second arm of the T and the body of the T together form a seat upon which the window shield is placed. The window shield is held in place against the seat of the mounting bracket by a length of an elastomeric retaining seal. The retaining seal includes a bead which permits the retaining seal to be removably anchored to a channel formed by the body of the mounting bracket.
