Abstract

The thermal composite profile comprises two profiles (1, 2) that are preferably made of metal and which are connected to one another by two single insulation strips (3) which also keep them at a distance from one another. The single insulation strips (3) are connected to the profiles (1, 2) by their respective longitudinal edges which form connecting strips (4). The single insulation strips (3) are connected with each other by at least two connecting bridges (5), the total overall thickness of the single insulation strips (3) as well as all the connecting bridges (5) forming a minimum wall thickness of no less than 3.8 mm when the connecting bridges (5) are oriented perpendicular to the single insulation strips and forming a minimum wall thickness of no less than 1.6 mm when the connecting bridges (5) are arranged on an angle or crossed.

Description

Thermal composite profile, in particular for windows, doors, facades, etc.
This invention relates to a thermal composite profile, in particular for windows, doors, facades, etc., with two profiles that are preferably made of metal and which are connected to one another by two single insulation strips which also keep them at a distance from one another, the single insulation strips being connected to the profiles by their respective longitudinal edges which form connecting strips.
Numerous embodiments of such composite profiles have been disclosed in prior art references and have been used. However, the problem of further improving the thermal characteristics remains. In principle, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the single insulation strips, but this also results in reduced mechanical strength.
Therefore, an object of the invention is to optimise a thermal composite profile of the aforementioned type from the aspect of its thermal, as well as its mechanical, propertf es.
According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a thermal composite profile, in particular for windows, doors, facades, etc., with two profiles that are preferably made of metal and which are connected to one another by two single insulation strips which also keep them at a distance from one another, the single insulation strips being connected to the profiles by their respective longitudinal edges which form connecting strips. The single insulation strips are connected to one another by at least two connecting bridges; the total overall thickness of the single insulation strips as well as all the connecting bridges forming a minimum wall thickness of no less than 3.8 mm when the connecting bridges are oriented perpendicular to the single insulation strips and forming a minimum wall thickness of at least 1.6 mm when the connecting bridges are arranged on an angle or crossed.
Essentially, the advantage achieved by the invention is that, by connecting the thin-walled single insulation strips by means of the connecting bridges, good mechanical characteristics with regard to tensile strength, transverse strength, shear strength and compression stiffness are achieved as well as good composite characteristics paired with very good thermal characteristics.
Within the framework of the invention it has proven to be advantageous when the wall thickness of the single insulation strips is in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 mm.
A particularly advantageous embodiment seems to be when the wall thickness of the single insulation strips is in the range of 0.8 to 2.0 mm.
Therefore, according to the invention it is suggested that with an arrangement comprising two connecting bridges, their wall thickness be in the range of 1.0 to 1.5 mm.
Here, too, a particularly advantageous combination of parameters is achieved if , with an arrangement comprising two connecting bridges, their wall thickness is in the range of 1.0 to 2.0 mm.
However, with an arrangement comprising three connecting bridges, it is recommended that their wall thickness be in the range of 0.3 to 2.0 mm, although here, too, i.e. with an arrangement comprising three connecting bridges, their wall thickness is particularly advantageous and, therefore, should preferably be in the range of 0.8 to 1.5 mm.
In a particularly simple and, therefore, advantageous embodiment within the framework of the invention, the connecting bridges are perpendicular to the single insulation strips.
However, from a mechanical point of view, a potentially more advantageous possibility exists in certain cases, with the single insulation strips connected to each other by two connecting bridges arranged to form a cross.
Furthermore, for thermal as well mechanical reasons, it is recommended that the distance between the metal profile and the connection zone of the connection bridges on the single insulation strips be in the range of 20% to 40% of the overall construction height of the single insulation strips, the range between 25% and 35%
of the overall construction height being particularly advantageous.
Finally, in an additional advantageous embodiment the connecting strips are joined to the single insulation strips by transverse bridges oriented towards the respective adjacent single insulation strip.
The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:-Fig. 1 shows a partial section of the composite profile in a first embodiment of the present invention.
Fig. 2 shows a similar embodiment to that of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 shows an alternative embodiment in a representation corresponding to Figure 1.
Thermal composite profiles for windows, doors, facades and similar applications usually consist of two (preferably metal) profiles 1 and 2 which are connected to one another and kept at a constant distance from each other by single insulation strips 3. The profiles l, 2 usually have dovetail-shaped grooves into which the longitudinal edges (shaped to form a connecting strip 4 of the single insulation strips 3) fit.
In order to create an optimal thermal and mechanical connection between the metal profiles 1,2 in these embodiments, the two single insulation strips 3 are joined to one another by connecting bridges 5 as shown in Figure 1. Likewise, there is the possibility shown in Figure 2 in which the single insulation strips 3 are connected to one another by three or more connecting bridges 5. In Figures 1 and 2, the connecting bridges 5 are designed as transverse bridges perpendicular to the single insulation strips 3.
However, there is also the possibility as shown in Figure 3 which is different in that the single insulation strips 3 are joined to one another by two connecting bridges 5 that are arranged in the form of a cross.
What is important is that the total overall minimum wall thickness of the single insulation strips 3 as well as all the connecting bridges 5 be no less than 3.8 mm.
In order to achieve an optimisation with regard to the thermal and mechanical characteristics, the wall thickness S 1 of the single insulation strips 3 should be in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 mm, more preferably in the range of 0.6 to 1 mm.
In the case of an arrangement with two connecting bridges 5 as shown in Figure l, the wall thickness S2 of the connecting bridges 5 should preferably be in the range of 0.8 to 2.0 mm, more expediently in the range of 1 to 1.5 mm.
However, if the arrangement has three connecting bridges 5 as shown in Figure 2, the wall thickness of the connecting bridges 5 is recommended to be in the range of 0.3 to 2.0 mm, preferably in the range of 0.8 to 1.5 mm.

The distance (identified with the reference number 6) between the metal profile l, 2 and the connection zone of the connecting bridges 5 on the single insulation strips 3 should be in the range of 20% to 40% of the overall construction height (identified with the reference number 7) of the single insulation strips 3.
The range 5 between 25% and 35% of the overall construction height 7 is preferable.
As can be seen from the drawing, the connecting strips 4 are joined to the single insulation strips 3 by transverse bridges 8 oriented towards the adjacent single insulation strips 5.
The aforementioned dimensioning rules apply in particular in the case of overall construction height of the single insulation strips 3 in the range of 20 to 100 mm as well as a distance between the single insulation strips 3 in the range of 10 to 100 mm.
