Abstract

A B S T R A C T

A pane assembly for windows and the like which may comprise a single glass pane or a plurality of panes to provide a multiple glazed unit is provided with a slider on at least one edge, the slider being at least partially enclosed in an elastic sealing member at the edge. The slider is capable of holding fixing and mounting members for the pane which may be positioned at different points on the slider.

Description

~047839 This invention relates to sashes for mounting in a door or window frame and is applicable both to ~ashes comprising a single transparent pane and a plurality of generally parallel transparent panes.
It-is well known to mount a pane or panes using rigid elongate members in contact with a least one side of said pane or panes and which may form a ~ater-tight seal with a frame surrounding the pane or panes. However all the systems suggested so far are complicated to put into practice. In ~act their mounting requires many hours of work because it requires use of mastic, positioning of air-tight joints and marking, positioning and adjustment of pieces connected to the frame, such as hinges, locks, bolts, casement bolts, handles, candlestic~
holders and the like.
In order to avoid at least some of these disadvantages it has been suggested to provide the rigid elongate member, on at least one of its sides, with external fixing members and particularly a slide of V-shaped section with a narrow gap be-tween the branches placed at the edge of the frame and allowing mounting of the latter in any manner by means of members inserted in the groove; advantageously this slide extends around the four sides of a rectangular pane. The manufacturer can thus produce a large number of identical units in an unin-terrupted productio~ area and these units are suitable for a large number of different applications allowing a major reduction in stocks which have to be held.
According to one aspect of the invention there is provided a sash for mounting in a door or window frame so as to be pivotally movable relative to the frame, said sash including one or more transparent panes each having edges, an elastic sealing member attached to and extending along the edges of the pane or panes,
- 2 -., '~

1~)47839 a rigid elongate member located at least partially within the elastic member and having a slideway, members for pivotally mounting the sash located in said slideway, said members for pivotally molmting the sash being slidably displaceable along the slideway and fixable at a desired position along the slidewayj each member for pivotally mounting the sash defining a pivot axis about which the sash is pivotally movable.
Preferably the elastic sealing member or seal surrounds the periphery of the pane and, in the case of a plurality of panes, it forms at the same time a joining member for the panes and an internal seal; such a joining member may be waterproof and formed of composite layers. Advantageously the elastic seal may form a seal between the panes and an outer frame in which it is mounted in use.
~he rigid elongate member may be composed of elements,such ' as rectilinear sections, with or without angle members, obtained - for example by moulding but it may also surround completely the periphery of the pane.
Parts of the rigid elongate member within the sealing member may abut the faces of the panes.
Alternatively, the rigid elongate member may be joined to a longitudinal separating member between the panes and/or an ~ngle member separating the panes at a corner of the panes.
In one preferred embodiment the elastic seal is formed of an elastomer such as polyethylene tetrasulphide and the rigid elongate member is formed of a metal or rigid plastics material ~uch as polyvinylchloride or reinforced polyester; the elastic seal may be extruded on to the rigid elongate member which facilitates automatic manufacture. The elements, i.e. the pane or panes and spacers, may be applied after extrusion and before polymerisation.

i ' , ~)47~;~

In another advantageous embodiment the rigid elongate member and the elastic seal are made in a single soft-on-hard extrusion operation carried out directly on to the pane or panes;
they may however be obtained from the same base composition.
~ mbodiments of the invention will be described by way of ~xample with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which, ~ ig. 1 i8 a section of part of a rectangular sash according to the invention comprising two panes, io Fig. 2 is a sectional side view of the sash of Fig. 1, ~ ig. 3 is a partly cut away perspective view of the window sash o~ Figs. 1 and 2, Fig. 4 is a partial perspective view showing the manner of mounting connecting pieces between the sash and an outer frame (not shown)-by an opening around a vertical axis, Fig. 5 is a partial perspective view showing the method of mounting of the connecting pieces between the panes and an outer frame (not shown) for an opening about a horizontal axis, Fig. 6 is a view from above in section representing a French window.
As shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, the sash is formed by two panes or sheets of glass 1 and 2 maintained a certain distance one from the other by hollow elongate members 3 in such a manner as to form between the two sheets a space 4. ~he hollow elonga*e members 3 are mounted at the four corners of the unit in known manner by the angle members 5, members 3 containing a dehydrating substance so as to avoid condensation of water vapour in the space 4 between the two sheets after the unit is sealed.
If the unit is not sealed, so that the space is in communication with the external atmosphere, no dehydrating substance is necessary.
~he sheets 1 and 2 are connected and held together by an elongate elastic sealing member 6, in this case of rubber or an elastic plastics material such as a polysulphide, moulded or extruded on ., , ~ - 4 -'' 1~7839 the four sides of the pane. This elongate member 6 comprises lips 6', 6" and 6" ' intended to be squeezed against the outer frame in order to e~sure air-tight sealing. Within this elongate member 6 there is mounted a rigid elongate member 7 having a slideway in the form of a groove of dove-tail cross-section.
The groove may also be of ~ or other desired shape.
This rigid elongate member may be made o~ metal or a rigid plastics material such as PVC or reinforced polyester. This rigid elongate member is connected solidly to the angle members 5 by screws 8, screwed into the members 5, the penetration of the screws 8 not being shown. This type of connection, although it is used in the embodiment of ~igures 1 to 3 to give an increase in strength, is not indispensable; it is possible to form the elongate member 3 intended to maintain the two sheets 1 and 2 at a certain distance from each other, of the same material, integral with and at the same time as the elongate member 6. It is also possible to make integrally the rigid slongate member 7 and the elongate members 6 and 3 of the same plastics material in a soft-on-hard extrusion operation which may be carried out directly on the panes. In the latter case the lips 6' and 6" are flexible whereas the corresponding parts of the elongate member 3 are relatively more rigid and that corresponding to the rigid elongate member 7 will give a maximum rigidity.
~ onversely the member 3 may be replaced in known manner by a plastics channel member which is not impervious to water vapour, containing the desiccant material.
In ~igures 4 and 5 is shown in perspective a method of mounting the connection pieces between the panes and the outer frame allowing opening o~ the mounted window sash by rotation about different axes. ~he hinges or hinge parts 9 and 10 comprise a male dove-tail part 11 and 12 engaging in-the rigid elongate member 7 of which the dove-tail is rebated at the angles of the frame.

1~4783~

Two screws 13 or 14 allow fixing of the connection piece 9 or 10 at an~ required position.
It should also be noted that t;he external part of the member 6 could be considerably reduced~ framing of the panes thus being assured by the V-shaped elements covering the edges of the panes and provided with openings for passage of hinges or hinge parts 9 and 10 or other fittings.
In ~igure 6 is shown in view from above and in section, a ~rench window formed by two window sashes 15 and 16. This embodiment illustrates clearly the universality of the system;
in fact the two window sashes 15 and 16 are mounted on vertical mountings 17 and 18 by hinges 19 and 20 held in the rigid elongate member 7 of the elongate member 6 by male dove-tail pieces held in place by the screw 21. At the edge of the window sash 15 - opposed to the hinges the window sash is provided with a casement bolt closing system 22 comprising a handle 23 and a vertical closing slider 24 activated by the handle 23.
This casement bolt closing is maintained in the rigid elongate member 7 of the pane by male dove-tail pieces 25 held by screws 26. ~he pane 16, for its part, is provided at its edge opposed to the h~geS 20 with a member 27 of ~-shape i~tended to ensure water-tightness between the two window sashes 15 and 16.
~his ~-shaped piece 27 is also mounted in the rigid elongate member 7 of the window sash 16 by dove-tail male members 28 held by the screws 29.
The flexible lips 6', 6" and 6"' of the rigid elongate member 7 ensure water-tightness in the mPnner described above.
It will be appreciated that the above-described sashes, apart from ease of manufacture owing to the construction of the elastic sealing member and ease of mounting owing to the rigid elongate member, have good sound insulation.properties because of the elasticity of the lips of the elastic sealing member.

1~4783~

It l,ill be appreciated that the above-described pane assemblies, apar-t from ease of manufacture o.~ing to the construction of the e]astic sealing member and ease of mounting owing to the slide, have good sound irlsulation properties because of the elasticity of the lips of the elastic sealing member.
