Description

La présente invention est relative à un dispositif defixation d'un vitrage ou surface analogue contre le bâti d'un support d'encadrement, en particulier métallique et plus spécialement encore, quoique non exclusivement, en profilé d'aluminium.The present invention relates to a device for fixing a glazing or similar surface against the frame of a framing support, in particular metallic and more especially, albeit not exclusively, made of aluminum profile.

On connaît déjà dans la technique, notamment par l'US-A-4 307 551 ou par l'EP-A-0 153 574, le principe du vitrage dit "collé" qui consiste à appliquer la vitre contre un support formé d'un cadre métallique entourant la périphérie de celle-ci, en débordant légèrement et en présentant un retour pour former ainsi un angle dans lequel se loge le bord du vitrage. Le cas échéant, une fois la vitre mise en place dans son support est rapportée sur l'avant de celui-ci une pare-close rabattue vers la face extérieure de la vitre, cet élément n'ayant toutefois qu'un rôle de protection ou d'étanchéité au montage mais ne participant pas directement à la fixation de la vitre sur son support.Already known in the art, in particular from US-A-4 307 551 or from EP-A-0 153 574, the principle of "glued" glazing which consists in applying the glass against a support formed of a metal frame surrounding the periphery thereof, slightly protruding and having a return to thereby form an angle in which is housed the edge of the glazing. If necessary, once the glass has been placed in its support, there is attached to the front thereof a closed screen folded towards the outside face of the glass, this element however having only a protective role or sealing during assembly but not directly involved in fixing the glass to its support.

Pour assurer la liaison nécessaire entre la vitre et l'encadrement métallique qui la reçoit, la solution classique consiste, en même temps que la vitre est convenablement centrée dans son support en plaçant des cales d'assise appropriées entre la vitre et le retour du cadre etsur lesquelles s'appuie le bord de la vitre, à disposer entre le fond du cadre et la partie interne de la vitre un mastic ou matériau analogue de collage, généralement à base de silicone qui solidarise ces deux éléments.To ensure the necessary connection between the glass and the metal frame which receives it, the classic solution consists, at the same time that the glass is properly centered in its support by placing suitable seat wedges between the glass and the return of the frame. and on which the edge of the glass rests, to have between the bottom of the frame and the internal part of the glass a putty or similar bonding material, generally based on silicone which fixes these two elements together.

Or, une telle solution présente l'inconvenient que pour chaque chantier ou plus précisément pour chaque fabrication des profilés qui constituent le support d'encadrement, il convient systématiquement de déterminer la nature du mastic de collage la plus appropriée à celle des matériaux à réunir. Notamment, on constate que selon l'anodisation des profilés métalliques, leur laquage, la texture des revêtements éventuels selon les coloris adoptés ..., il convient de choisir un produit exactement adapté qui soit au mieux compatible avec le profilé et la surface de verre pour les solidariser convenablement ensemble par un collage efficace et durable. La mise au point d'un tel mastic nécessite des essais divers en laboratoire sur des échantillons du profilé de support, ce qui entraîne des coûts parfois non négligeables et surtout exige du temps, ce qui est généralement contradictoire avec les impératifs imposés par les délais de construction.However, such a solution has the disadvantage that for each site or more precisely for each manufacture of the profiles which constitute the framing support, it is systematically necessary to determine the nature of the adhesive sealant most suitable for that of the materials to be joined. In particular, it can be seen that, depending on the anodization of the metal profiles, their lacquering, the texture of the possible coatings according to the colors adopted, it is advisable to choose an exactly adapted product which is at best compatible with the profile and the glass surface. to secure them properly together by an effective and durable bonding. The development of such a sealant requires various laboratory tests on samples of the support profile, which sometimes results in considerable costs and above all requires time, which is generally contradictory with the requirements imposed by the deadlines for construction.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de fixation qui évite ces inconvénients en permettant un collage efficace et sûr de surfaces planes notamment en verre, sur un support d'encadrement, quelle que soit la forme ou la nature du revêtement de surface des éléments métalliques ou autres qui constituent ce support.The present invention relates to a fixing device which avoids these drawbacks by allowing efficient and safe bonding of flat surfaces, in particular glass, on a framing support, whatever the shape or nature of the surface coating of metallic or other elements. which constitute this support.

A cet effet, le dispositif selon l'invention, pour la fixation d'une surface plane, notamment en verre, sur un support d'encadrement, comportant, rapporté contre le support en regard de la surface plane à fixer un profil de collage présentant une face parallèle à la surface, se caractérise en ce que la face s'applique contre la surface plane avec interposition d'un mastic, dont les caractéristiques sont préalablement définies pour être exactement adaptées à celles du profile et à celles de la surface plane, en permettant leur liaison mutuelle, le profil de collage étant immobilisé dans une gorge ouverte ménagée en creux dans le support d'encadrement.To this end, the device according to the invention, for fixing a flat surface, in particular made of glass, on a framing support, comprising, mounted against the support facing the flat surface to be fixed, a bonding profile having a face parallel to the surface, is characterized in that the face is applied against the flat surface with the interposition of a putty, the characteristics of which are defined beforehand to be exactly adapted to those of the profile and to those of the flat surface, allowing their mutual connection, the bonding profile being immobilized in an open groove formed in the hollow in the framing support.

L'invention consiste donc à éviter tous les inconvénients qui résultent d'une éventuelle incompatibilité entre un mastic déterminé et un profilé constituant la partie du support d'encadrement contre laquelle doit être collée une surface plane de verre ou autre, en insérant à l'endroit du collage un profile approprié, métallique ou éventuellement d'une autre nature qui présente un état de surface précis pour lequel le mastic utilisé est également adapté. L'invention permet donc assurer la liaison par collage entre le verre et ce profil en s'affranchissant des caractéristiques particulières du support d'encadrement, ce dernier étant seulement muni de moyens permettant de fixer mécaniquement aux endroits appropriés le profil de collage qui devient ainsi solidaire du support et assure la liaison avec la surface de verre dans des conditions toujours égales à elles- mêmes.The invention therefore consists in avoiding all the drawbacks which result from a possible incompatibility between a determined putty and a profile constituting the part of the framing support against which a flat glass or other surface must be glued, by inserting the place of bonding an appropriate profile, metallic or possibly of another kind which has a precise surface condition for which the putty used is also suitable. The invention therefore makes it possible to ensure the bonding between the glass and this profile by overcoming the particular characteristics of the framing support, the latter being only provided with means making it possible to mechanically fix the bonding profile in appropriate places which thus becomes integral with the support and ensures the connection with the glass surface under conditions always equal to themselves.

Avantageusement, le profil de collage présente une section rectangulaire avec une rainure latérale ouverte dans laquelle s'engage au moins une nervure en relief portée par le support pour immobiliser le profil dans la gorge de celui-ci. En variante, le profil de collage présente une section en queue d'aronde ou autre.Advantageously, the bonding profile has a rectangular section with an open lateral groove in which engages at least one raised rib carried by the support to immobilize the profile in the groove thereof. Alternatively, the bonding profile has a dovetail or other section.

De préférence et selon une autre caractéristique, la surface plane et le support d'encadrement délimitent au-delà du mastic interposé au droit du profil de collage un espace réservé à un matériau de remplissage pour maintenir le mastic en regard du profil.Preferably and according to another characteristic, the flat surface and the framing support delimit beyond the putty interposed in line with the bonding profile a space reserved for a filling material to keep the putty facing the profile.

Par ailleurs et de façon en elle-même connue, la surface plane est montée dans son supportd'encadrement par l'intermédiaire des cales d'assise disposées dans le fond du support, un joint d'étanchéité étant logé entre la vitre et l'extrémité du support, vers l'extérieur de celui-ci.Furthermore and in a manner known per se, the flat surface is mounted in its support frame by means of the seat wedges arranged in the bottom of the support, a seal being housed between the glass and the end of the support, towards the outside thereof.

De préférence, et selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le mastic est constitué d'un produit adhésif, notamment d'un silicone structurel dont les caractéristiques sont adaptées selon l'invention à la nature du profil de collage lui-même, constitué d'un élément métallique, notamment an aluminium, matériau composité ou autre matériau approprié.Preferably, and according to another characteristic of the invention, the mastic consists of an adhesive product, in particular a structural silicone, the characteristics of which are adapted according to the invention to the nature of the bonding profile itself, consisting a metallic element, in particular an aluminum, composite material or other suitable material.

De préférence, le profil de collage est constitué du même matériau que celui de la surface plane, par exemple en verre.Preferably, the bonding profile is made of the same material as that of the planar surface, for example glass.

L'invention présente ainsi l'avantage d'une très grande rapidité de montage et adaptation, quelles qui soient la structure et la nature du revêtement de surface des profilés qui constituent le support d'encadrement. La prévision dans ces derniers de la gorge destinée à recevoir le profile de collage peut être aisément envisagée à la fabrication de ces profilés sans entraîner un accroissement significatif de leur prix de revient. La mise en place du profil de collage est très facile et rendue d'autant plus aisée que ce profil n'est pas visible de l'extérieur une fois le vitrage mise en place dans son support.The invention thus has the advantage of very rapid assembly and adaptation, whatever the structure and the nature of the surface coating of the profiles which constitute the framing support. The provision in the latter of the groove intended to receive the bonding profile can be easily envisaged in the manufacture of these profiles without causing a significant increase. ficatif their cost price. The installation of the bonding profile is very easy and made all the more easy since this profile is not visible from the outside once the glazing has been placed in its support.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages d'un dispositif de fixation notamment pour vitrage extérieur collé, établi conformément à l'invention apparaîtront encore à travers la description qui suit d'un exemple de réalisation donné à titre indicatif et non limitatif, en référence au dessin annexé sur lequel:

  • -La Figure 1 est une vue schématique en coupe transversale et en perspective partielle du dispositif considéré.
  • -La Figure 2 est une vue de détail à plus grande échelle d'une variate de réalisation du profil de collage préconisé.
Other characteristics and advantages of a fixing device, in particular for glued exterior glazing, established in accordance with the invention will become more apparent from the following description of an exemplary embodiment given by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the drawing. annexed on which:
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic view in cross section and in partial perspective of the device considered.
  • FIG. 2 is a detail view on a larger scale of a variate for producing the recommended bonding profile.

Sur la Figure 1, la référence 1 désigne l'ensemble du dispositif selon l'invention dans un premier mode de réalisation. Ce dispositif est notamment destiné à assurer le montage et la fixation d'une surface plane de verre 2 à l'intérieur d'un support d'encadrement 3. Dans cet exemple, la surface 2 est constituée de deux épaisseurs de verre parallèles respectivement 4 et 5 délimitant entre elles un espace 6, l'écartement entre les deux surfaces de verre parallèles étant maintenu par des entretoises 7.In Figure 1, the reference 1 designates the entire device according to the invention in a first embodiment. This device is in particular intended to ensure the mounting and fixing of a flat glass surface 2 inside a framing support 3. In this example, the surface 2 consists of two thicknesses of parallel glass respectively 4 and 5 delimiting between them a space 6, the spacing between the two parallel glass surfaces being maintained by spacers 7.

Le support d'encadrement 3 est réalisé sous la forme d'un profilé métallique, notamment d'un profilé d'aluminium et présente une partie verticale 8 sensiblement parallèle à la surface du vitrage 2 et un bord périphérique 9 perpendiculaire à la partie 8 et entourant extérieurement le vitrage. Des renforts tels que 10 et 11 sont avantageusement ménagés vers l'extérieur sur la partie 8 et le bord 9. Le vitrage 2 est monté dans son support d'encadrement 3 avec interposition de cales d'assise 12 convenablement réparties.The framing support 3 is produced in the form of a metal profile, in particular of an aluminum profile and has a vertical part 8 substantially parallel to the surface of the glazing 2 and a peripheral edge 9 perpendicular to the part 8 and externally surrounding the glazing. Reinforcements such as 10 and 11 are advantageously arranged outwards on the part 8 and the edge 9. The glazing 2 is mounted in its frame support 3 with interposition of seat wedges 12 suitably distributed.

De façon en elle-même connue dans la technique, la liaison entre la face du vitrage 2 tournée vers l'intérieur du support d'encadrement c'est-à-dire vers la partie 8 de ce dernier est solidarisée de cette dernière au moyen d'un mastic de liaison 13, le fond du support sous le mastic étant comblé par un matériau de remplissage 14. Un joint d'étanchéité 15 est avantageusement monté vers l'extrémité extérieure du bord 9 autour du vitrage 2.In a manner known per se in the art, the connection between the face of the glazing 2 turned towards the inside of the framing support, that is to say towards the part 8 of the latter, is secured to the latter by means a bonding putty 13, the bottom of the support under the putty being filled with a filling material 14. A seal 15 is advantageously mounted towards the outer end of the edge 9 around the glazing 2.

Conformément à l'invention, on réalise la liaison entre le vitrage 2 et le support d'encadrement 3 par le mastic 13, en aménageant la partie 8 avec une pièce de forme 16 directement venue lors de la fabrication du profilé correspondant pour délimiter ainsi une gorge 17 ouverte vers le vitrage 2. A l'intérieur de cette gorge est monté un profilé de collage 18, notamment métallique mais qui pourrait être le cas échéant d'une autre nature, ce profil étant ancré à l'intérieur de la gorge 17 par des nervures respectivement 19 et 20 prévues dans le profilé et qui pénètrent dans des rainures de même section du profil.In accordance with the invention, the connection is made between the glazing 2 and the framing support 3 by the putty 13, by fitting the part 8 with a shaped part 16 which came directly during the manufacture of the corresponding profile to thus define a groove 17 open towards the glazing 2. Inside this groove is mounted a bonding profile 18, in particular metallic but which could possibly be of another nature, this profile being anchored inside the groove 17 by ribs 19 and 20 respectively provided in the profile and which penetrate into grooves of the same section of the profile.

Le profil 18 présente une surface externe 21 qui affleure de préférence vers l'extérieur en se situant dans le prolongement de la partie 8 et contre laquelle vient se coller le mastic de liaison 13. Cette surface 21 présente des caractéristiques exactement déterminées, choisies en fonction de la nature du mastic de collage qui peut dès lors, quel que soit l'état ou le revêtement de surface du support d'encadrement, assurer en toutes circonstances le collage du vitrage contre le support dans des conditions exactement déterminées.The profile 18 has an external surface 21 which is preferably flush with the outside while lying in the extension of the part 8 and against which the bonding putty 13 is bonded. This surface 21 has exactly determined characteristics, chosen according to of the nature of the adhesive sealant which can therefore, whatever the state or surface coating of the framing support, ensure in all circumstances the gluing of the glazing against the support under exactly determined conditions.

Sur la Figure 1, on a schématiquement représenté une pare-close 22 rapportée sur l'avant du support d'encadrement contre le vitrage, cette pare-close n'ayant cependant qu'un rôle décoratif ou d'étanchéité mais ne participant pas par elle-même à la liaison exclusivement réalisée par le mastic et le profil de collage 18.In Figure 1, there is schematically shown a barrier 22 attached to the front of the framing support against the glazing, this barrier however having only a decorative or sealing role but not participating by itself to the connection exclusively produced by the putty and the bonding profile 18.

La Figure 2 illustre une autre variante de réalisation où le profil de collage 18a monté dans la gorge 17 présente ici une forme en queue d'aronde évitant ainsi les nervures d'ancrage prévues dans la variante de la Figure 1 où la gorge et le profil qu'elle reçoit ont une section générale rectangulaire.Figure 2 illustrates another alternative embodiment where the bonding profile 18a mounted in the groove 17 here has a dovetail shape thus avoiding the anchoring ribs provided in the variant of Figure 1 where the groove and the profile that it receives have a general rectangular section.

Bien entendu, il va de soi que d'autres formes de la section du profil de collage pourraient être également envisagées. De même, l'invention n'est pas limitée à un matériau particulier tant pour le profil de collage lui-même que pour le mastic mis en oeuvre qui est cependant de façon générale un produit à base de silicone.Of course, it goes without saying that other forms of the section of the bonding profile could also be envisaged. Likewise, the invention is not limited to a particular material both for the bonding profile itself and for the putty used, which however is generally a product based on silicone.
