Description

The present invention relates to a panel for the frame of a window, in particular a wooden frame, with at least two profiled strips, each having a cover portion for covering the frame and are connected to each other end. The present invention further relates to a profile strip for such a cladding, a frame construction for a window with such a cladding and a method for producing such a cladding.

Windows are known from the prior art, which have a frame made of wood. Such frames are exposed on their weather side strong weather conditions, so that the known frame wear out or age quickly, at least on its weather side. In order to protect the frames of the windows from the weather, fairings have been developed for the frame, which are attached to the frame with at least partial cover of the frame and have a better wear behavior against the weather. The known panels are made for this purpose, for example, plastic or metal. In general, the known panels are composed of four or more moldings, each having a cover portion for covering the frame and the ends are connected together. In the production of such a panel, the first separate profile strips are cut at their ends mitred, to then connect these ends together, the shape of the panel is essentially predetermined by the miter. To effect the connection, the adjoining miter edges of the metallic profiled strips are welded together along a weld in order to obtain a covering with secure connection between the profiled strips. The thus composed of the profile strips panel can then be attached to at least partially cover the frame to the frame of the window.

The known panels for the frame of a window have been proven, but have some disadvantages. Thus accumulations of material may occur in the region of the weld seam, so that expensive reworking is necessary in order not to disturb the visual impression of the lining in the area of the weld seam. In addition, the adjacent miter edges are sometimes difficult to reach, so that the same makes it difficult to weld and the production cost is increased. Furthermore, when the miter edges of the profile strips are welded, there is an increased input of heat, which can lead to disadvantageous microstructural changes in the material of the cover section of the profile strips and possibly to deformation of the profile strips or cover section.

It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a panel for the frame of a window whose manufacture is simplified. Furthermore, the present invention seeks to provide an advantageous profile strip for the panel for the frame of a window. In addition, the present invention seeks to provide a frame structure for a window with a frame and a panel attached to the frame, the manufacturing cost, in particular the assembly effort, the frame structure should be reduced. A further object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a panel for the frame of a window which is particularly fast, easy and safe to carry out.

This object is achieved by the features specified in the patent claims 1, 8, 9 and 10 respectively. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

The panel according to the invention for the frame of a window, in particular for the wooden frame of a window, has at least two profiled strips. The profile strips each have a covering portion for covering the frame, wherein the profile strips are connected to each other at the end. It is preferred if the profiled strips are mitred at the ends in order to achieve an angular alignment between the adjacent profiled strips. Moreover, it is preferred if the cladding itself is also frame-like or closed in the circumferential direction. For this purpose, the cladding preferably has at least three, particularly preferably at least four, profiled strips connected to one another at the end. The profile strips are on the back, so on the side facing the frame of the window, connected to each other via a connecting part. Thanks to the rear connection part remains the front of the cover largely unaffected, which makes a costly rework dispensable, as it is necessary, for example, when directly welding the adjacent miter edges. In addition, the back of the moldings and the connecting part is easier to reach than, for example, the area where the miter edges adjoin one another, so that the production is simplified in terms of the end-side connecting the moldings. In the said connection part, which is preferably initially formed separately from the profile strips, before this is connected to the profile strips, it may, for example, a, if necessary rigid, angle piece with two or more angularly to each other extending legs act.

In an advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention, the profile strips have at least one provided on the back of the cover portion protruding approach, wherein the connecting part is respectively secured to the protruding lugs of the ends interconnected profile strips. The projecting lug may have been subsequently attached to the back of the cover section of the profiled strip, but it is preferred if the projecting lug is formed integrally with the cover section of the profiled strip in order to generate the protruding projection already during the production of the cover section of the profiled strip. this is preferably done by extrusion. If the protruding projection is integrally formed with the cover portion or produced by extrusion or the like together with the cover portion, it can also be spoken of an elongated protruding approach, which extends as well as the cover over the entire length of the profile strip. Regardless of the particular embodiment of the protruding approach this has the advantage that the attachment of the connecting part can not necessarily be done directly on the back of the cover, but in part or wholly on the protruding approach, so that the attachment of the connecting part to the protruding approach a has less influence on the cover section of the profile strip. If the connecting part is welded, for example, to the protruding projection, then the disadvantageous influences of the heat input primarily relate to the protruding projection, but to a lesser extent the covering section of the profile strip. In this way, not only the above-mentioned heat-related influence of the cover is reduced, but it can also be provided with a heat-sensitive coating without the coating is damaged due to the welding of the connecting part with the protruding approach.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention, a groove is provided in the protruding projection, in which the connecting part is introduced. Thanks to the groove exact positioning of the connecting part on the protruding lugs of the end-to-end interconnected profile strips is possible, also gives a groove in which the connecting part is introduced, the end-side connection between the adjacent profile strips additional stability. In addition, the groove may serve as a prefixing of the adjacent profile strips to each other and the connecting part itself to the protruding approach, if the connecting part, for example, subsequently welded to the profile strips or connected in any other way. In this embodiment, it is preferable if the connecting part is inserted into the groove via one of the two end openings of the groove, that is to say one of those openings of the groove which points in the longitudinal direction of the groove.

In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention, the transverse opening of the groove is provided in the side facing away from the cover portion of the protruding projection. One could also speak here of the fact that the groove is provided in the side facing away from the cover portion of the protruding projection. This embodiment has the advantage that the groove is particularly easy to access and find, which simplifies, for example, the introduction of the connecting part into the groove and the fastening of the connecting part to the projecting shoulder. In other words, thereby the production cost is further reduced.

In order to ensure a particularly secure hold of the introduced into the groove connecting part within the groove, the connecting part is in a preferred embodiment of the lining according to the invention in the region of the transverse opening of the groove at least partially engaged or engaged behind the groove flanks. In this way - even if the connecting part is not yet welded to the protruding approach or connected in a similar manner - a support of the introduced into the groove connecting part in the direction of the transverse opening of the groove, so that a particularly stable attachment or prefixing of the connecting part to the projecting approach.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention, the cross section of the groove is formed in a circular segment. This has the advantage that not only connecting parts with a circular cross-section can be safely taken up and supported in the groove, but also screws, possibly with self-tapping thread, can be used as connecting parts. Such screws can be screwed on the one hand transversely into the groove of a profile strip and on the other hand in the longitudinal direction in the groove of the other profile strip to connect the profile strips end to each other.

On the one hand to be able to create a space-saving protruding approach and on the other hand to achieve a secure indirect connection via the connecting part, the circular segment-shaped cross-section in a further advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention has a diameter between 2 mm and 7 mm. The named size of the Diameter of the circular segment-shaped cross-section ensures on the one hand the problem-free recording of a suitably dimensioned connecting part and on the other hand a secure connection via the connecting part, which is suitable due to these dimensions, the non-destructive absorb the forces occurring between the profile strips, ie in particular tensile forces.

In a further preferred embodiment of the lining according to the invention the connecting part is welded to the side facing away from the cover portion of the protruding projection. In this way, the heat-affected zone generated by the welding is further spaced from the cover portion, so that a disadvantageous influence on the cover section of the profile strip is largely prevented by the welding. In addition, the weld is particularly accessible, making the production is further simplified. In this embodiment, it is preferable if the connecting part is welded essentially or exclusively to the side of the protruding projection facing away from the covering section.

As an alternative or in addition to the embodiment described above, the connecting part introduced into the groove is welded in a further preferred embodiment of the lining according to the invention in the region of the transverse opening of the groove with the protruding projection. As already described in the preceding embodiment, this minimizes the effects of heat input associated with welding on the covering section of the profiled strip, so that the covering section on its front side can, for example, also be provided with a heat-sensitive coating without being damaged. In this embodiment, it is preferable if the connecting part is welded to the protruding projection substantially or exclusively in the region of the transverse opening of the groove.

In principle, the welding of the connecting part with the protruding projection in the region of the transverse opening can be effected in any desired manner, that is to say for example by means of a weld seam, a welding bead or a plurality of welding points which each connect one of the opening edges of the transverse opening of the groove to the connecting part. In a further advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention, however, the connecting part is welded to the protruding projection by welding the opposite opening edges of the transverse opening. Analogously, in this embodiment, a transverse opening of the groove bridging welding is achieved, whereby a particularly secure attachment of the connecting part to the protruding approach or within the groove is effected.

In a further preferred embodiment of the lining according to the invention, the connecting part is welded to the respective projecting projection via at least two spaced-apart welds. In contrast to a single continuous weld here the heat input is lower, yet a secure attachment is achieved. The welds mentioned herein may be welds or weld beads as well as spot welds. In this context, it has been found to be advantageous if a maximum of four such spaced apart welds are provided to reduce the welding associated with the heat input into the protruding approach or in the profile strip.

In a particularly preferred embodiment of the cladding according to the invention, the projecting lug can be engaged behind a frame-side fastening means by fastening the cladding to the frame of the window. This is advantageous in that the protruding approach not only serves to attach the connection part and to realize the above-mentioned advantages, but also the protruding approach takes over the function of fixing the cover to the frame of the window, so that an additional attachment part can be dispensed with the panel. In this way, a particularly compact and space-saving panel is created. In this embodiment, the projecting projection is preferably designed in such a way that it can be grasped on both sides and / or from the outside by fastening the panel to the frame by means of a frame-side fastening means. As a result, a particularly secure attachment of the panel to the frame of the window is achieved in space-saving manner. By virtue of the fact that the protruding projection can be engaged behind the frame-side fastening means alternatively or additionally from the outside, that is to say that the frame-side fastening means does not have to engage in the groove in the protruding projection in order to engage behind, the frame-side fastening means can also project the protruding projection into that longitudinal section of the projecting projection Behind attack on both sides, in which the connecting part is introduced into the groove, whereby a more flexible arrangement of the frame-side fastening means on the frame is possible. In order to effect the two-sided engagement behind the protruding approach by the frame-side fastening means and thus a secure attachment of the panel to the frame of the window, has the protruding approach in this embodiment, preferably a trapezoidal or dovetail-shaped cross-section. This also has the advantage that the heat absorption capacity of the protruding approach is increased, which further reduces, for example, the influence of the heat input on the cover section of the profiled strip in the previously described welding of the connecting part with the protruding approach.

In order to ensure a secure end-side connection between two profiled strips, which have a relatively wide, curved, curved and / or angled cover portion, the profile strips in a further advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention each have at least two provided on the back of the cover protruding projections. In this embodiment, it is preferred if a corresponding number of connecting parts is provided for the respective end-side connection between two profiled strips. In this embodiment, it is further preferred if the cover portion has at least two mutually inclined Abdeckteilabschnitte, at the rear sides in each case one of the protruding projections is provided to secure connection between the adjacent profile strips even with curved, bent or angled course of the cover portion of the profile strip to achieve.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention the connecting part is formed as a metal part or aluminum part, which is welded to the profile strips or the protruding approach and / or introduced into the groove.

In a further particularly preferred embodiment of the lining according to the invention, the connecting part formed as a metal part or aluminum part is designed as a bendable metal wire or aluminum wire. Here, the metal wire or aluminum wire may be bent under elastic or plastic deformation thereof, although it is preferable that the metal wire or wire is mainly bendable under plastic deformation thereof. The use of a bendable metal wire or aluminum wire as a connecting part, compared to the use of a rigid metal part or aluminum part is a significant simplification of the manufacture of the lining. So in particular no rigid metal or aluminum angles or parts must be provided, but only the bendable metal wire or aluminum wire are available, which can be bent particularly easily in the desired angled shape, wherein the metal wire or aluminum wire is preferably dimensioned such that the bending of the same can be done manually. Thus, for example, the metal wire or aluminum wire may be bent into the grooves of the protruding projections of the profile strips to be connected to one another at the end before it is introduced. Alternatively, however, it is also possible to introduce the substantially straight metal wire or aluminum wire on both sides into the corresponding grooves, in order subsequently to transfer the two profile strips into the desired angled position while bending the metal wire or aluminum wire.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the cladding according to the invention, the connecting part formed as a metal part or aluminum part or as a bendable metal wire or aluminum wire has a circular cross-section, which enables secure reception and support within the previously described groove with the circular segment-shaped cross section. A circular cross section of the bendable metal wire or aluminum wire also has the advantage that commercially available metal wires or aluminum wires can be used as the connecting part.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the lining according to the invention the profile strips are made of metal or aluminum. In this embodiment, it is further preferred if the profile strips are formed as extruded profiles. As already indicated above, it is further preferred for profile strips formed as extruded profiles if the cover section and the protruding projection have been produced integrally with one another in the course of extrusion molding, so that the projecting projection is formed as an elongate projecting projection and essentially having the same extent in the longitudinal direction of the profile strip as the integrally associated cover portion. In this embodiment, it is further preferred if the profile strips have a plastic coating, which is preferably provided on the side exposed to the weather conditions of the profile strip. Thus, it is particularly preferred in this case if the plastic coating is provided on the front side of the cover section, wherein the plastic coating can of course also extend over the edges of the cover section and, in addition, partially over the rear side of the cover section.

1 first shows a profile bar 2 for use in the more detail below with reference to the 3 and 5 described in detail 4 for the frame of a window. The profile bar 2 is essentially made of metal or aluminum, so that it is also possible to speak of a metallic profile strip or aluminum profile strip. The trained as an extruded profile strip 2 extends essentially into the in 1 indicated, opposite longitudinal directions 6 . 8th , wherein the profiled strip formed as an extruded profile 2 a substantially plate-shaped cover portion 10 and two integral with the cover portion 10 trained protruding approaches 12 . 14 having. The cover section 10 has a front 16 and a back 18 on, with the front 16 with a plastic coating 20 is provided. This encompasses the plastic coating 20 in the illustrated embodiment, the lateral edges 22 . 24 of the cover section 10 and further extends each over an area of the back 18 of the cover section 10 ,

The protruding approaches 12 . 14 are at the back 18 of the cover section 10 provided, thus stand on the back 18 of the cover section 10 showing, with the protruding approaches 12 . 14 due to the fact that they are formed as part of the extruded profile, in the longitudinal directions 6 . 8th the profile strip 2 extend so that the protruding lugs 12 . 14 also as elongated protruding approaches 12 . 14 can be designated. The cover section 10 is in its transverse direction between the lateral edges 22 . 24 in two mutually inclined Abdeckteilabschnitte 26 . 28 divided. In the illustrated embodiment, the two Abdeckteilabschnitte 26 . 28 slanted towards each other such that they are in the area of the front side 16 include an angle α that is less than 180 °. The projecting approach 12 is on the back 30 the cover part section 26 provided while the other protruding approach 14 on the back side 32 of the other cover section 28 is provided.

The protruding approaches 12 . 14 are each shaped so that these are described in more detail later with reference to 5 described frame-side fastening means 34 can be grasped on both sides. To this end, the protruding approaches 12 . 14 each have a trapezoidal or dovetail-shaped cross-section, as is the 2 can be seen. Thus, the projecting approaches 12 . 14 two lateral, sloping flanks 36 . 38 and a cover portion 10 or the respective Abdeckteilabschnitt 26 . 28 opposite top 40 on. Due to the slanted lateral flanks 36 . 38 may be the particular protruding approach 12 . 14 on both sides and from the outside - not from the inside via the groove described in more detail later - by the frame-side fastening means 34 be underrun. In this case, the connection of the protruding approaches 12 . 14 with the respective frame-side fastening means 34 To simplify, are the transition edges 42 between the top 40 and the lateral flank 36 on the one hand and the top 40 and the lateral flank 38 on the other hand rounded off.

In the prominent approaches 12 . 14 is each a groove 44 intended. The groove 44 extends continuously in the longitudinal directions 6 . 8th and was preferably already in the context of extruding the profile strip 2 generated. It should be noted at this point, however, that the groove 44 basically also after extruding or producing the profile strips 2 in the salient approach 12 respectively. 14 can be introduced, for example by milling or drilling, with the groove 44 in this case, not necessarily continuous over the entire length of the profile strip 2 would have to extend, but could only be provided in the region of the ends. However, it is easier in terms of manufacturing, the groove 44 already to produce in the context of extrusion and thus one in the longitudinal direction 6 . 8th continuous groove 44 to achieve, regardless of a shortening of the profile bar 2 always at the end sections one in the longitudinal direction 6 . 8th open groove 44 to obtain. This is how the groove points 44 in the illustrated embodiment, a longitudinal direction 6 pointing end opening 46 and one in the longitudinal direction 8th pointing end opening (not shown). The groove 44 is in the illustrated embodiment in the cover portion 10 opposite top 40 the protruding approaches 12 . 14 provided so that in the longitudinal directions 6 . 8th elongated transverse opening 48 the groove 44 in the top 40 the protruding approaches 12 . 14 is provided. Here is the groove 44 preferably in the middle in the top 40 the protruding approaches 12 . 14 arranged like this 1 and 2 can be removed.

The groove 44 has two mutually opposite groove flanks 50 . 52 and one of the transverse opening 48 opposite groove bottom 54 on. At the transition between the groove flank 50 and the top 40 the respective protruding approach 12 . 14 on the one hand and at the transition between the opposite groove flank 52 and the top 40 the respective protruding approach 12 . 14 on the other hand are opposing, parallel opening edges 55 the transverse opening 48 educated. The groove sides 50 . 52 or the opening edges 55 are formed such that later described in more detail, in the groove 44 introduced and correspondingly shaped connecting part in the region of the transverse opening 48 at least partially from the groove flanks 50 . 52 engaged behind or behind gripped, so that in the groove 44 introduced connecting part in the direction of the transverse opening 48 on the salient approach 12 . 14 supported or supportable. To effect this, the groove points 44 a circular segment-shaped cross section. The center point angle β of the circular segment-shaped cross section is greater than 180 °, and it is preferred if the center angle β is 280 ° or more, more preferably 300 ° or more, optionally 310 ° or more, to produce the cladding described in more detail below 4 simplify and improve their stability. On the one hand, the necessary strength in the area of the end connections between two moldings 2 . 2 on the other hand, a relatively small, space-saving protruding approach 12 . 14 to create, it is preferred if the diameter d of the circular segment-shaped cross section is between 2 mm and 7 mm.

The costume 4 in the 3 and 5 will consist of at least two moldings 2 the previously with reference to the 1 and 2 composed of the type described below for better understanding as moldings 2 and 2 ' be designated, although these are of identical design. It is preferred if the panel 4 circumferential, that is closed or frame-like design. For this purpose, the panel should 4 at least three moldings 2 in the present example it is assumed that the cladding 4 a frame-like, quadrilateral disguise 4 formed. To achieve this, are the moldings 2 . 2 ' end connected to each other, wherein the profile strips 2 . 2 ' at the back via a connecting part 56 connected to each other. That in the 3 . 4 and 5 indicated connection part 56 is designed as a metal part or aluminum part. So can the connecting part 56 For example, be designed as a substantially rigid elbow, the optionally two or more angularly extending legs 56 ' . 56 '' having. For example, such an angle piece could be L-shaped, T-shaped or cross-shaped in order to connect two, three or four prrofilleists to one another at the end. It is preferred if the connecting part 56 is designed as a bendable metal wire or aluminum wire, which is to be assumed in the following description, although the following description essentially also to a connecting part 56 in the form of a rigid elbow applies.

In the manufacture of the fairing 4 First, the profile strips 2 . 2 ' provided, the profile strips 2 . 2 ' at their in the longitudinal directions 6 . 8th pointing ends are mitred to be mitred between the ends to be joined together profile strips 2 . 2 ' to achieve the desired angle, here 90 °. Subsequently, the connecting part 56 with one end in the groove 44 the one profile strip 2 and with the other end in the groove 44 ' on the other profile strip 2 ' brought in. As previously indicated, the connecting part 56 while dimensioned such that in the grooves 44 . 44 ' inset connecting part 56 in the area of the transverse opening 48 . 48 ' the groove 44 . 44 ' at least partially from the groove flanks 50 . 52 is behind. In this case, the respective leg 56 ' . 56 '' of the connecting part 56 basically one have any cross-sectional shape, but it has proved to be advantageous if the legs 56 ' . 56 '' of the connecting part 56 have a circular cross section, as in the 4 and 5 is shown. Here, the diameter of the circular cross section of the respective leg should 56 ' . 56 '' of the connecting part 56 slightly smaller than the diameter d of the circular segment-shaped cross section of the groove 44 . 44 ' be educated. The introduction of the connecting part 56 or its legs 56 ' . 56 '' into the respective groove 44 . 44 ' should be done in such a way that the connecting part 56 over one of the previously mentioned end openings 46 the groove 44 . 44 ' in the groove 44 . 44 ' is introduced. Analogously, the connecting part 56 with the respective leg 56 ' . 56 '' in the longitudinal direction 6 or 8th the groove 44 . 44 ' in the groove 44 . 44 ' introduced. Although in 3 for reasons of clarity, only one connecting part 56 is shown, it is understood that a corresponding further connecting part 56 also in the grooves 44 . 44 ' within the associated protruding lugs 14 . 14 ' the profile strips to be fastened to each other 2 is introduced, as is the 5 can be removed, with the following description also applies to this further connection part 56 refers.

For this purpose, the connecting part 56 for example, with the respective protruding approach 12 . 14 glued or mechanically attached to this. However, in order to achieve a particularly secure and quickly achievable attachment, the connecting part 56 with the protruding approaches 12 . 12 ' respectively. 14 . 14 ' welded. This is the connecting part 56 with the cover section 10 . 10 ' opposite top 40 . 40 ' the respective protruding approach 12 . 12 ' welded, as this particular in the 3 and 4 can be seen. In the illustrated embodiment, this is in the groove 44 . 44 ' introduced connection part 56 in the area of the transverse opening 48 . 48 ' the groove 44 . 44 ' with the protruding approach 12 . 12 ' welded. As a result, the heat affected zone generated during welding is farther from the cover section 10 . 10 ' or its plastic coating 20 . 20 ' on the front side 16 . 16 ' is spaced. Thus, the cover remains 10 . 10 ' and its plastic coating 20 . 20 ' on the front side 16 . 16 ' largely unaffected by the heat input. In this context, it is preferable if the connecting part 56 essentially or exclusively with the top 40 . 40 ' of the salient approach 12 . 12 ' or / and in the area of the transverse opening 48 . 48 ' the groove 44 . 44 ' with the protruding approach 12 . 12 ' is welded, allowing a welding of the connecting part 56 with the groove bottom 54 and one the groove bottom 54 adjacent portion of the groove flanks 50 . 52 not happened. As a result, the influence of heat on the cover 10 . 10 ' and the plastic coating 20 . 20 ' reduced.

How out 4 it can be seen, the welding of the connecting part takes place 56 with the protruding approach 12 . 12 ' welding the opposing opening edges 55 . 55 ' the transverse opening 48 . 48 ' the groove 44 . 44 ' so that it can also be spoken of a bridging weld, the particularly secure hold of the connecting part 56 on the salient approach 12 . 12 ' causes. Basically, already a weld between the single protruding approach 12 . 12 ' and in the associated groove 44 . 44 ' inset connecting part 56 be enough. However, on the one hand a particularly secure attachment of the connecting part 56 on the salient approach 12 . 12 ' to achieve and on the other hand to keep the heat input relatively low, it has been found to be advantageous if the connecting part 56 over at least two spaced welds 58 . 58 ' and 60 . 60 ' with the protruding approach 12 . 12 ' is welded. In this case, it is further preferred if a maximum of four such welds between the connecting part 56 and the single protruding approach 12 . 12 ' are provided. At the welds 58 . 58 ' . 60 . 60 ' they may be both welds and spot welds, the latter being preferred, especially if these are sufficient, around the two opening edges 55 . 55 respectively. 55 ' . 55 ' the transverse opening 48 . 48 ' the groove 44 . 44 ' to weld together.

The use of a connecting part 56 forming, bendable metal wire or aluminum wire allows a particularly great flexibility in the manufacture of the cladding 4 , Thus, when using a bendable metal wire or aluminum wire on commercial metal or aluminum wires are accessed without the targeted production of a rigid metal or aluminum angle is required, moreover, only a predetermined angular arrangement of the ends to be joined together profile strips 2 . 2 ' allows. Moreover, the order of the process steps in the manufacture of the panel can also 4 be varied. Thus, the bendable metal or aluminum wire in a first variant can first be bent such that the desired angle between the legs 56 ' . 56 '' of the connecting part 56 is reached, before the thighs 56 ' . 56 '' each into their intended groove 44 . 44 ' be introduced. In a second variant, the profile strips 2 . 2 ' such in the longitudinal direction 6 . 8th be arranged one behind the other, that the mutually associated grooves 44 . 44 ' longitudinal 6 . 8th aligned with each other, to the substantially straight metal wire or aluminum wire in the associated grooves 44 . 44 ' introduce before the adjacent moldings 2 . 2 ' be converted into their intended angled arrangement to each other, which ultimately leads to the desired bending of the metal or aluminum wire. In the latter variant, the fastening or welding of the metal or aluminum wire to or with the protruding approach 12 . 12 ' also before transferring the adjacent profile strips 2 take place in their angled arrangement to each other.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the frame construction according to the invention for a window will be described, the panel described above 4 having.

In 5 is a window in a wall 62 indicated, wherein the window has a fixedly arranged in the opening frame 64 and a pivotable on the frame 64 arranged sash 66 having, wherein the sash 66 a windowpane 68 encloses. Both frames, namely the frame 64 and the sash frame 66 , are formed circumferentially closed, with both the frame 64 as well as the sash frame 66 is designed as a wooden frame. However, this also includes embodiments in which the frame 64 and the sash frame 66 at least partially formed of other materials, such as Dämmmaterialien or the like. In 5 is also the weather side 70 and the interior 72 indicated, the weather side 70 through the wall 62 and the window from the interior 72 is disconnected. The costume 4 is, if necessary detachable, on the frame, here the frame 64 , the window attached. Alternatively or additionally, a corresponding panel 4 also on the sash 66 be provided of the window, the appearance of the other panel was omitted for reasons of clarity. Also will be in 5 on the representation of any sealing or insulating means between the cladding 4 and adjacent components of the frame construction omitted for the sake of clarity.

On the frame 64 are the previously mentioned frame-side fasteners 34 attached. The frame-side fastening means 34 are here as locking means for latching attachment of the panel 4 on the frame 64 educated. Thus, the frame-side fastening means 34 two opposing locking tongues 74 . 76 on, the two-sided and external engagement behind the protruding approach 12 respectively. 14 serve. So can the disguise 4 with their protruding approaches 12 . 14 at the back 18 of the cover section 10 the profile strips 2 to the frame-side fastening means 34 be introduced, the locking tongues 74 . 76 with appropriate pressure on the panel 4 are first pressed apart before they push back elastically in the course of their initial position, in which these lateral flanks 36 . 38 the respective protruding approach 12 . 14 and thus the salient approach 12 on both sides and from the outside, fixing the panel 4 on the frame 64 engage behind. In the mounting position of the panel 4 on the frame 64 covers the cover section 10 the profile strips 2 the side of the frame 64 off, that of the frame 64 surrounded the opening facing the outside 16 the profile strip 2 or their plastic coating 20 the weather side 70 is facing. Thus, the fairing offers 4 a secure protection of the frame 64 made of wood against the weather on the weather side 70 ,

Out 5 is also apparent that another panel 78 , optionally detachable, on the frame 64 is attached, with the further fairing 78 covering the other of the weather side 70 facing side of the frame 64 serves. The previous comments on the panel 4 or the associated profile strips 2 apply in a similar way for the further disguise 78 , It should be noted, however, that the two panels 4 . 78 may also be formed as a one-piece cladding, so that the profile strips 2 of the panels 4 and 78 as integral profile strips 2 are formed.

Out 5 it can be seen that the frame-side fastening means 34 that section of the protruding approaches 12 . 14 can be assigned to which the connecting part 56 at the respective protruding approach 12 . 12 is attached. The groove 44 into which the connecting part 56 is introduced, this ensures that the connecting part 56 not too strong over the top 40 the respective protruding approach 12 . 14 protrudes, so that a relatively flat-building frame-side fastener 34 can be used. Alternatively or additionally, the frame-side fastening means 34 - as in 5 implied - on its top 40 of the salient approach 12 . 14 facing side of a depression 80 in which the from the transverse opening 48 the groove 44 and thus over the top 40 of the salient approach 12 . 14 protruding connecting part 56 save space is included.

In 3 is an alternative to the connector 56 indicated. So can the profile strips 2 . 2 ' the connecting part of a screw 82 be formed. The screw 82 has a self-tapping thread and is in the screwing 84 on the one hand, transversely into the groove 44 the one profile strip 2 and on the other hand in the longitudinal direction of the groove 44 ' in the groove 44 ' the other profile strip 2 ' screwed in, with the self-tapping thread of the screw 82 a corresponding mating thread in the groove flanks 50 . 52 or / and the groove bottom 54 both grooves 44 . 44 ' generated.

Although this is always a window, so it is readily apparent to those skilled in the art that the panel 4 also usable for the frame of a door or in the frame construction for a door.
