Definitions

  • This invention relates to a hinge or friction stay of the kind which comprises a track with a nose cap at one end, a bar pivoted to a strut, a link connecting the bar to a slider on the track, and a brace connecting the strut to the slider.
  • a hinge or friction stay of this kind is disclosed, for example, in EP-A-0142999.
  • the track is normally connected to the window or door frame and the opening door or window light is attached to the bar.
  • Normally two such hinges or friction stays are used to support a window or door at the bottom or top of the window or door or sometimes in the case of a window on the two sides.
  • a disadvantage of existing hinges or stays of this kind is that they do not allow the window or door to open far enough to give adequate egress. Particularly in the case of a window, the hinge or stay allows a limited opening of the window which is insufficient to provide a clear window opening through which a person could escape in the event of fire.
  • An object of the invention is to provide such a hinge or friction stay, particularly for use with a side-hung window (i.e. a window in which the stays are mounted along the top and bottom edges of the window frame) which will allow sufficient opening of the window light to enable the window to be opened sufficiently for use as an emergency escape exit or sufficiently to allow the window to be cleaned from both sides without the need to go out of the building.
  • a side-hung window i.e. a window in which the stays are mounted along the top and bottom edges of the window frame
  • a window hinge, or friction stay comprising:
  • the bar will normally carry a nose member which cooperates with the nose cap so as to pull the hinge fully into its closed position during the closing movement, and the first movement during opening is assisted by the spring so that the first slider moves to a limited extent away from the nose cap thus allowing the nose member to clear the nose cap before further opening movement takes place.
  • the hinge may have an additional link or brace located between the bar and the brace, so as to enable the hinge to be used with heavier types of windows as defined in Claim 2.
  • Figure 1 In Figure 1 is shown a window light 10 supported by two friction stays 11 and 12 at its top and bottom in a window frame 13.
  • the window light 10 is movable to a position in which it is at one side of the frame and substantially clear of it so that the open frame is substantially unimpeded by the window.
  • a strut 18 is pivoted at 19 to a slider 20 and the movement of slider 20 is restricted by stop 17 and a second stop 21.
  • a strut 18 is connected by a rivet 22 to a bar 23 carrying at one end a nose member 24.
  • the bar is also connected via a link 25 to a second slider 26.
  • a brace 27 connects strut 18 to slider 26.
  • a spring 28 Between slider 26 and the nose cap is mounted a spring 28. Movement of the slider 26, which is biased by spring 28, is limited by stop 29.
  • Stop 29 is not absolutely essential, it is only there to allow space for a fixing hole 30. If the fixing hole were not required then a stop 21 could perform the function of limiting movement of both sliders 20 and 26.
  • the invention may be applied for example to friction supported stays or hinges of a type shown in our European Patent Application 0112681Al, or in U.K. Patent Application 2144173A or in U.K. Patent Application 2081803B all of which are examples of friction stays manufactured by the present Applicants.
  • the spring 28 although shown as a wire type spring may be replaced by a Z shaped spring or a coil spring where there is sufficient room to put such a spring in.
  • An additional link or brace may be provided between bar and brace to enable the hinge to be used with heavier type windows.

Claims (2)

1. Charnière de fenêtre ou appui à friction, comprenant:
un rail (14) portant, à une extrémité, un capuchon en forme de nez (15);
une barre (23) montée pivotante sur une entretoise (18);
un élément de liaison (25) raccordant la barre (23) à un coulisseau (26) situé sur le rail; et
une contre-fiche (27) raccordant l'entretoise (18) au coulisseau (26), caractérisé en ce que l'entretoise (18) est montée pivotante sur un second coulisseau (20) situé sur le rail et dont le déplacement est limité par deux butées espacées (17, 21), et en ce que le premier coulisseau possède un degré limité de liberté de déplacement et est repoussé élastiquement (28) à partir du capuchon en forme de nez (15), l'agencement étant tel que, lorsque la charnière est ouverte, une extrémité de l'entretoise se déplace globalement vers l'extérieur, ce qui permet à la barre (18) portant la fenêtre de pivoter vers un côté du cadre de la fenêtre et de fournir une ouverture de fenêtre à l'état sensiblement non entravée ou au moins une ouverture de fenêtre dans laquelle une partie-importante de l'ouverture est non entravée.
2. Charnière de fenêtre ou appui à friction selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que la charnière possède un élément de liaison ou une contre-fiche supplémentaire situé entre la barre et la contre-fiche.
