Abstract

Arrangement for outer doors and the like which separate cold and hot spaces from each other, x comprising a per se known frame construction consisting of two spaced-apart profiles (1, 2) of metal or B other material having high thermal conductivity and members (3) inserted in grooves in the profiles to interlock the profiles, said members consisting of a material the thermal conductivity of which is inferior to that of the metal material, thin sheets (4 and 10) inserted in pocket-like recesses (5) in the profiles, and defining the inside and outside of the door, and foamed-in-place material (6) filling out the hollow space between said sheets. The novelty resides in that one of said sheets has been made non-influenceable by temperature variations and consists of a fabric (10) of woven glass or like material fastened up in the frame.

Description

  • The present invention relates to an outer door and the like which separates cold and warm spaces from each other, comprising a per se known frame construction consisting of two spaced apart profiles of metal or other material having high thermal conductivity and an intermediate member inserted in a groove in each profile to interlock the profiles, said member consisting of a material of low thermal conductivity, thin sheets, inserted in pocket-like recesses in the respective profiles, and forming the inside and outside of the door, and foamed-in-place cellular material filling out the interior of the door.
  • Such an outer door is known from Swedish Patent Specification No. 410483 published 15.10.1979.
  • Problems arise in outer doors and the like, especially during the cold season, concerning the fitting of the door in the door frame because one side of the door leaf is exposed to heat and the other to cold, which results in that the side exposed to the cold contracts and the door buckles. This inconvenience is evident in such doors of the type mentioned above where the inner and the outer sides consist of coherent sheets of metal which are very sensitive to variations in temperature.
  • The object of the invention is to provide an arrangement which eliminates the inconveniences caused by temperature variations, and according to the invention one of the sheets in the door, preferably that constituting the outer side thereof, which is influenced by temperature changes at least in the vertical sense of the door, consists of a fabric of woven glass or like material which has been secured in the pocket-like recess in the outer profile of the frame construction, for example by means of strips of sheet metal or like material, the cellular material foamed in place and introduced into the interior of the door, being adapted, on one hand, to penetrate into said pocket-like recess to fix the edges of the fabric relative to the frame construction and, on the other hand, to penetrate through the fabric and adhere to an external covering, arranged on the outside of the fabric and consisting of panels or the like freely movable relative to each other and to the frame construction.
  • The invention will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
    • Fig. 1 is a front view of a door arranged according to the invention; and
    • Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view on a larger scale of the edge portion of a preferred embodiment of such a door.
  • The door includes a frame which consists of two members or profiles, 1 and 2 of metal or other resistant material having high thermal conductivity, said members being interlocked by means of an intermediate member or profile 3 of material having low thermal conductivity. One side or, more exactly, the inside of the door, consists of a sheet of metal or other thin sheet 4 of similar material which is inserted and retained in pockets 5 in the inner frame member 2, on one hand, due to the wedging action but principally due to the pressure and adherence of the foamed material 6.
  • The intermediate member 3 consists of a specifically shaped profile of plastic material. The profile has a U-shaped central portion 7, which serves as a spacer between the frame members 1 and 2, and flanges 8 projecting on either side and extending into the grooves facing each other in the frame members. On the side facing the interior of the door the flanges 8 are provided with inclined barb-like ribs 9 which engage the side wall of the recess of the respective frame member. The inclined positioning of the ribs produces a retaining effect, whereby the frame members are kept together during mounting.
  • When the foamable material 6 is introduced it will penetrate into the profile recesses and due to the expansion of the material the barb-like ribs 9 will be pressed with increased force against the inner side of the recesses at the same time as the flanges 8 are pressed against the opposite side thereof. The foamable plastic material also fills out the U-shaped central portion 7.
  • Since the side causing deformation of the door usually is that side which is exposed to varying temperatures one has chosen to make the outside of the door as uninfluenceable as possible by temperature differences. The inside of the door is influenced, all the year round, by a substantially constant temperature, and therefore no specific steps are required.
  • In the embodiment shown a coherent sheet or layer 10 of woven glass fabric or the like is fastened on the outside of the door. The sheet 10 is inserted in the pockets 5 extending along the frame members 1 and in the initial phase it is wedged fast suitably by means of sheet metal strips or the like 11 over which the edges of the woven fabric sheet can be folded.
  • A wooden covering on the outside of the door is shown at 12. This covering, which suitably consists of a number of transverse or longitudinal panels, has its edges inserted under bent-over flanges 13 in the frame profile 1.
  • When the foamable cellular plastic material is introduced into the door it will penetrate through the woven fabric sheet 10 and be bound also to the wooden panels 12. Cellular plastic material also penetrates into the pockets 5 and thereby it will definitely fix the strips 11 and the edges of woven fabric sheet 10 relative to the frame profile 1.
  • The woven glass fabric sheet is to a very little extent influencable by temperature changes and constitutes a rigidification for the door frame. As described above, the wood panels are so mounted that they are movable relative to each other and the fact that they are retained against said fabric sheet by cellular plastic material which has penetrated through it, does not change anything in this respect since the power of cellular plastic material to transmit motion from one wooden panel to another is insignificant.
  • In the case where the door is completed with profiled panels of sheet metal or like material to which the foamed material bonds, then use should be made of overlap joints between the profiles, covered on the inside with foil strips of a material to which the foamed material does not adhere. This prevents transmission of motion and coaction between the panels and also the possibility of deformation of the door caused by coaction between several panels.
  • The invention should not be considered limited to that described in the foregoing and shown in the drawing but may be modified in various ways within the scope of the appendant claims.
