Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fire-proof holder of at least one pane covering a building opening with elastic sealing elements arranged inside and outside in the edge area and a bearing element on which the pane is placed. It is also used for double or multiple glazing, where glazing is understood to be the use of silicate glass or other suitable materials. It is also used in a vertical or inclined installation position, e.g. B. with shed glazing or vertically arranged windows.
  • the invention has for its object to design a fire-proof bracket of the generic type in such a way that the disk is prevented from tripping out, while also mounting the holding device in a simple manner and in particular without additional stresses in the disks to generate.
  • a generic bracket according to the invention in that a holding profile with legs acting flat on the inner sealing element on the bearing element and outside a flat acting on the outer sealing element holding bar is arranged inside the room and the holding profile is detachably connected to the holding bar and further that Sealing element consists of a temperature-resistant material.
  • neither the retaining profile nor the retaining strip need have elastic properties.
  • commercially available profiles e.g. B. made of steel, sheet steel or aluminum, because the profile in conjunction with the temperature-resistant, elastic sealing materials, which may be limited even in their elasticity, exerts a sufficient holding effect by appropriate bias on the disc or discs.
  • expansion of the profile caused by high temperatures occurs at least partially in the direction of the seal, so that the holding effect is improved at higher temperatures. It has proven particularly advantageous that a so-called swelling mat is used as the sealing element.
  • These swelling mats or expandable mats combine the outstanding characteristics of resistance of the ceramic fiber (aluminum silicate) to high temperatures and thermal expansion of the vermiculite material (intumescent). They are storage mats or strips with holding forces that also increase with increasing temperature. Such swelling mats have already proven themselves many times for the storage of catalytic converters for the cleaning of engine exhaust gases at high temperatures. As a result, when using a swelling mat as the sealing element, the holding profile and the holding strip can even be rigid, since the required contact pressure arises as the temperature rises due to the intumescent effect of the swelling mat. Since the spacer elements can also be made of this material between the panes in the case of double or multiple glazing, there is a secure mounting even in the event of temperatures occurring in the event of a fire.
  • the holding profile has a molded drainage or evaporation channel.
  • This can e.g. B. integrated into the profile shape of the holding profile.
  • a cover element is arranged between the holding profile and the sealing element and, together with the holding strip, can be detached with the bearing element, e.g. B. connected by screwing.
  • the bearing element can be an angular profile or a box-shaped carrier in a manner known per se.
  • the releasable connection carries a compression spring acting on the holding strip on its side facing away from the holding profile. It can also be used to correct and change a pre-selected tension.
  • This is e.g. B. required if the basic thermal load of the glazing changes when z. B. is installed in a manufacturing plant in which constantly higher temperatures occur as a result of a change in the production process. That can e.g. B. be the case if casting machines are used in a hall designed for production at normal temperature as a result of a change in production, which result in a significantly higher operating temperature and thus lead to a higher basic thermal load on the glazing.
  • a particularly simple and easy-to-install holder is characterized in that the holding profile has a C-shaped cross section, the two inwardly directed legs of which act on the sealing element.
  • Such a profile is particularly easy to manufacture and, in conjunction with the sealing elements according to the invention, is sufficient to achieve the object.
  • a U-profile with outwardly angled legs is arranged as a cover element, the central web of which runs between the bearing element and the holding profile. With the help of this cover element, a large-area power transmission is achieved, so that the inwardly directed legs of the C-shaped holding profile can be kept relatively short.
  • the holder is characterized in that the holding profile has the cross section of a U, the legs of which are angled inwards and then again parallel to the web outwards.
  • This design of the holding profile has the advantage that with non-resilient materials such. B. steel or aluminum, a holding element is formed with a certain elasticity, and that a water trough is formed directly by the sloping inward leg, that is integrated into the profile.
  • the holding profile has the cross section of a U, one leg of which is angled inwards and then again parallel to the web outwards and whose other leg is angled inwards parallel to the web.
  • This holding profile represents a combination of the two holding profiles described above and is characterized by good pressing properties and an integrated water drainage channel.
  • the holding profile can be thin-walled, at least in the legs, in order to achieve a resilient contact.
  • the particular advantage of the holder according to the invention is the use of a swelling mat as a particularly preferred embodiment and the use of easy-to-produce and easy-to-assemble profiles made from customary and therefore inexpensive materials.
  • the panes 1a and 1b with the panes 2a, 2b made of fire protection glass separated from them by spacer elements 3a, 3b are clamped onto the support profile 4 on the inside of the room.
  • These fire protection glasses 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b have the property not to shatter under the high thermal load occurring in the event of a fire, but to change into a plastic state and to deform under the influence of gravity due to their own weight. It must therefore be shown a bracket that prevents flowing out of the bracket and holds the disc.
  • the disks 1 a, 2 a lie on a bearing element 5, possibly with the interposition of an elastic strip 6.
  • this bearing element 5 is an angled sheet-metal strip which is connected to the support profile 4 by means of the screw connection 7.
  • a thread is provided in the support profile 4, into which the screw connection 7 is screwed with a screw bolt 8 and a nut 9 is tightened.
  • the fire-proof mounting of the panes 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b takes place between the inner sealing element 10 and the outer sealing element 11.
  • These sealing elements 10, 11 consist of mineral fiber strips or mats or, preferably, of a swelling mat, which has the advantage when a high level occurs To swell temperature without, however To lose elasticity or the sealing ability, so that the contact pressure increases at higher temperatures or reductions in the pane thickness are compensated for at the same or higher contact pressure.
  • This sealing element 10 is pressed by the holding profile 12 having a C-shaped cross-section according to the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 1, over its inwardly directed leg 13, in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1 to achieve a maximum contact surface between the legs 13 of the holding profile 12 and the sealing element 10, a cover element 14 is arranged.
  • This has a U-shaped cross section, the legs 15 of which are angled outwards parallel to the web and extend between the legs 13 of the holding profile 12 and the sealing element 10 and transmit the contact pressure of the holding profile 12 to the sealing element 10.
  • the cover element 14 is detachably connected to the support profile 4 by means of the screw bolt 8 and the nut 9. This clamp connection can of course either be arranged continuously over the entire length of the pane or only at individual points.
  • the support profile 4 projects beyond the holding profile 12, so that a trough 16 is formed.
  • the outer sealing element 11 is pressed by means of the holding strip 17, the holding strip 17 also being fastened and pressed on via the screw connection 7.
  • a compression spring 18 can also be arranged in the arrangement according to FIG. 1 to increase and more precisely adjust the contact pressure on the sealing element 11 via the screw bolt 8, which is tensioned over the washer 19 and the nut 20 and for protection the compression spring 18 is covered by a nut or cover (not shown). If the retaining strip 17 is only arranged in sections, a cover strip (not shown) must be provided for aesthetic and sealing reasons.
  • This bar preferably has a U-shape and can have sealing elements in the legs and is fastened via the screw connection 7.
  • the holding element 12 and variants 26 and 27 of this holding element are shown in cross section. These profiles each have a bore 25 for receiving the screw connection.
  • the inwardly directed legs 13 can have different lengths. If the cover element 14 described above in connection with FIG. 1 is to be dispensed with, the legs 13 of the holding profile 12 are drawn correspondingly far inwards, which of course brings about a certain reduction in the elasticity, but with the use of swelling mats the elasticity of the respective one Retaining profile does not play the decisive role.
  • the legs 28 are first angled inwardly at an acute angle and then directed outwards again with the section 29 at the same angle, so that the section 29 parallel to the web and so that it runs parallel to the seal 10 and the contact pressure can be transferred to this seal 10.
  • This shape results in a somewhat higher elasticity of the holding profile 26 and at the same time a trough 16 is formed.
  • the further variant according to FIG. 5 for the holding profile 12 shows a holding profile 27 which represents a combination of the holding profiles 12 and 26.
  • the upper area is formed after the holding profile 26 with the trough 16 and somewhat higher elasticity and the lower area, in which a water channel is required, is formed after the holding profile 12.
  • the holding profiles 12, 26, 27 shown represent particularly preferred configurations. According to the function described, further variants are also possible. Only very little elasticity is required due to the use of swelling mat seals or mineral fiber seals, so that the holding profiles 12, 26, 27 and. a. can be formed from inexpensive materials such as sheet steel, aluminum or light metal casting, which results in a significant reduction in costs compared to the known fire-safe bracket with a significant improvement in terms of a reliable bracket, which also results in a high quality seal.
