Description

TECHNICAL AREA

The present invention relates to a horizontal window locking system, and more particularly to a horizontal window locking system in which a window is reciprocated along a rail provided on a window frame and moved in a direction perpendicular to the reciprocating motion to completely contact the window frame be, whereby the air-tightness is increased.

STATE OF THE ART

In general, a window system is a generic term for a window frame disposed in a wall of a building or house and a window mounted in the window frame. The window system has a lighting function for introducing external light, a ventilation function for ventilating the interior of a building or house, and a climate function for preventing a heat transfer between the inside and outside of the building or house.

The window system can be classified according to its opening and closing process in a sliding and a joint system. In the hinged window system, a window connected to a window frame is pivoted about the hinge via a hinge. The hinged window system has excellent airtightness, water resistance, and excellent wind pressure resistance, and also has the advantage of facade partitioning and structural stability of the window system. However, the sliding type has a more beautiful facade than the hinge type. In addition, if no separate locking means is provided on the hinge window system, the window may be accidentally opened or closed by wind.

In the sliding window system, the window is linearly reciprocated along a rail provided on the window frame to be opened or closed. The sash window system has the advantage of having a nicer façade than the hinge type, but has some disadvantages in terms of airtightness, water resistance and wind pressure resistance.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

The terms and words used in the description are not limited to the typical or dictionary definition as described below, and may be construed as meaningful meanings and definitions consistent with the technical ideas.

The 1A and 1B 3 are schematic perspective views for explaining an operation of a window system according to the present invention and FIGS 2A and 2 B are longitudinal sectional views showing the operation of a window system according to the present invention.

As in 1A As shown, a window system closes a window frame 10 one installed in a wall of a building and a window 20 . 25 that in the window frame 10 is arranged. The window closes a fixed window 25 one, at a desired location of the window frame 10 is attached, and a movable window 20 running along a rail, not shown, in a lower portion of the window frame 10 is moved to the window frame provided with window glass w 10 to open and close. The moving window 20 is parallel with the window frame 10 arranged and is on the rail of the window frame 10 in a first direction (A direction in the 1A and 1B ) is moved back and forth to open and close the window system. While the moving window 20 parallel to the window frame 10 is arranged, it is also in the direction of the window frame 10 moved, that is in a second direction (B direction in 1B ) perpendicular to a surface of the window glass w, and thus is airtight with the window frame 10 (hereinafter, the window system closely brought into contact with the window frame in this way is called the "horizontal window lock system").

In the horizontal window lock system according to the present invention, the movable window becomes 20 on the straight rail of the window frame in the first direction A to open and close the horizontal window lock system. Furthermore, the movable window 20 in the second direction (B direction) to closely contact the window frame, thereby maintaining the closing state.

In the horizontal window lock system according to the present invention, it is necessary to define a position of the movable window because the movable window 20 is moved three-dimensionally. Hereinafter, an "open position" means a position in which the window system is moved by moving the movable window 20 is opened, and a "closed position" a position in which the movable window 20 is moved from the opening position in the first direction (A direction) to close and open a portion of the window frame, and a "locking position" a position in which the movable window 20 in the second direction (B direction) is moved to fit closely with the window frame 10 to be contacted.

The 2A and 2 B are sectional views in the longitudinal direction of the horizontal window locking system when it is arranged in the opening and closing position. That is, when the horizontal window lock system is in the open position (FIG. 2A ) is the moving window 20 not tight with the window frame 10 in contact so that there is a gap G between them. External and internal air can circulate through the gap G, so that a ventilation function is performed becomes. In other words, according to the horizontal window lock system of the present invention, even in the closed position where the movable window is not opened, there is a gap between the movable window and the window frame, so that the ventilation function can be performed. At this time, a locking function can be performed although the ventilation is performed so that the window can not be opened from the outside. When the horizontal window lock system in the closed position ( 2 B ) is the moving window 20 tight with the window frame 10 in contact, so there is no gap between them.

After that, the principle in which the movable window 20 of the horizontal window lock system in the second direction is described.

The fitting 30 is formed as a rectangular frame and arranged to enclose a side surface of the movable window. The fitting 30 causes a force to be transmitted by rotation of the handle H via a link.

As in 4 Shown are a bottom track 60 and a roller housing 50 at a lower cross member of the fitting 30 arranged. The roller housing 50 takes a role 52 on, focusing on the on the window frame 10 provided rectilinear rail rotates, so that the movable window can be moved in the first direction and the lower track rail 60 is provided to allow the movable window to be moved in the second direction due to the principle described below.

The lower track 60 closes a base plate 64 , a pole 66 located at an outer surface of the base plate 64 is provided to be linearly moved by rotation of the handle H, a guide member 68 that at the bar 66 is fixed, and a corner drive pin 62 one at the stake 66 is designed to be in a corner drive 40 trained hole to be introduced. When the handle H is rotated by a user, once again a momentum is added to the corner drive 40 , the drive connection pin 62 , the rod 66 and the guide element 68 transferred, so that the guide element can be moved linearly. The lower track 60 turns off in the B direction 1b by the linear movement of the guide element 68 moved, whereby the horizontal locking is achieved.

If the moving window 20 is in the open position, is the lower track 60 at a distance of about 20 mm from the roller housing 50 spaced, and if the moving window 20 is moved from the closed position to the locking position, the lower running rail is moved in parallel to close with the roller housing 50 to be in contact.

The 5 and 6 FIG. 15 is perspective views illustrating a lower surface of a part. FIG 4 show, where 5 a bottom perspective view of the lower track and the roller housing is when the movable window 20 in the open position, and 6 is a bottom perspective view of the lower track rail and the roller housing when the movable window 20 in the closed position.

The roller housing 50 is at the lower track 60 arranged to be relatively movable. A roller housing mounting part 55 that in the lower track 60 is mounted on both lateral ends of the roller housing 50 provided. The roller housing mounting part 55 is formed with a through hole, not shown. A roller housing guide 80 is inserted into the through hole. The roller housing guide 80 is formed as a cylinder with a desired length and both ends of the roller housing guide 80 are at the base plate 64 attached. The roller housing 50 is arranged to be in a longitudinal direction (up and down direction in FIG 5 ) of the roller housing guide 80 is movable while the roller housing mounting part 55 in the roller housing guide 80 is mounted.

The guide element 68 is at the stake 66 attached and a guide pin 69 is on one side of the guide element 68 educated. The guide pin 69 is in one in the leadership hole 75 the guide plate 70 inserted state movably arranged. 7 shows that in the pole 66 mounted guide element 68 and on the guide element 68 trained leadership 69 ,

If the rod 66 by the operation of the handle H to the right in 5 is moved, it is the principle of operation, which is attached to the rod guide pin 69 a force on an inside of the guide hole 75 and moved further to the right side. Here is the guide plate 70 through the power of the guide pin 69 to the upper side of the 5 moves, and the roller housing 50 to which the guide plate is attached is also moved to the upper side. At this time, the roller housing mounting part becomes 55 of the roll housing 50 along the roller housing guide 80 moved to the upper side. If the guide pin 69 finally at the end of the guide hole 75 arrives, the roller housing mounting part comes 55 of the roll housing 50 also at the end (upper side) of the roller housing guide 80 on (see 6 ).

Accordingly, a relative distance between the roller housing 50 and the base plate 64 be changed and a relative distance between the role 52 and the moving window 20 that is disposed on the base plate can also be changed so that the movable window can be brought into close contact with the window frame. That is, it is possible to achieve the horizontal locking of the window system.
