Definitions

  • the invention relates to window sealing strips for sealing gaps in wooden windows between a fixed frame and a hinged openable leaf, for the prevention of draughts.
  • One proposal for sealing such gaps takes the form of a elongated sealing strip having a base from which depends a root received in a channel cut in the fixed frame and having a portion extending from the base, engaging the window leaf as the leaf is closed into the frame and then bearing resiliently against the closed leaf to seal the gap.
  • Sealing strips of this kind can be made of extruded plastics material or from a shaped foamed plastics material, perhaps with an impervious plastics cover.
  • a sealing strip for wooden windows in which a fixed frame receives a hinged window leaf
  • the sealing strip comprising an elongate base having two sides, a root depending from one side of the base for receipt in a channel in the fixed frame to mount the sealing strip on the fixed frame and a flipper seal extending from the other side of the base for sealing engagement with the window leaf, the sealing strip being extruded with the majority of the sealing strip being of a PVC material but with a portion of the sealing strip between the base and the flipper seal being of a plastics material that is more resilient than the PVC material for reducing the set of the flipper seal after compression.
  • the base and the root By making the base and the root of a rigid plastics material, their dimensions can be very compact indeed.
  • the more resilient plastics "hinge" between the flipper seal and the base allows it to have a resilience that is maintained throughout its useful life and also allows it to have compact dimensions.
  • the whole sealing strip is compact and so does not require the window to be designed around the sealing strip - rather the sealing strip can be fitted to any wooden window.
  • the flipper seal has a free edge which is also formed from said more resilient plastics material.
  • the roof may include at least one side projection of said more resilient plastics material.
  • the sealing strip 10 is mounted in a wooden window formed by a fixed frame 11 and a hinged leaf 12.
  • the hinged leaf may be side or centre hung to pivot about a vertical axis or top or centrally hung to pivot about a horizontal axis.
  • the fixed frame is provided with a rebate 13 having a vertical surface 13a against which the moveable leaf 12 bears, when closed, and a surface l3b at right angles to the vertical surface 13A and parallel to a surface 14 of the moveable leaf 12, when the leaf is closed into the fixed frame 11.
  • the sealing strip 10 is mounted on the surface 13b.
  • the sealing strip 10 comprises a base 15, a root 16 depending from one side of the base and a flipper seal 17 extending from the other side of the base.
  • the free end of the flipper seal 17 is provided with a nose 18.
  • the root 16 has two projections 16a, 16b to one side and a single, longer, projection 16c to the other side.
  • the sealing strip 10 is extruded from two different plastics materials.
  • the majority of the sealing strip 10, other than the longer projection 16c, the nose 18, and the portion 17a of the flipper adjacent the base 15, are formed from a relatively rigid PVC material.
  • the longer projection 16c, the nose 18 and the flipper portion 17a are formed from a more resilient plastics material such as a urethane plastics material.
  • the dimension T may be 0.445mm to 0.60mm.
  • the surface 14 on the leaf 12 contacts the flipper seal 17 and depresses it, with the resilience of the flipper seal portion 17a maintaining contact between the seal 17 and the surface 14.
  • the flipper seal 17 seals the gap between the surfaces 13b and 14 and prevents the passage of air between those parts, so reducing draughts.
  • Timber surfaces are usually irregular rather than perfectly flat.
  • timber usually moves or changes shape with varying conditions such as those caused by seasonal changes.
  • the more resilient nose 18 enables the seal to form itself flexibly to the contours of the mating surface, forming a good seal.
  • a more rigid material would be likely to bridge across high points leaving gaps for air to penetrate, allowing gaps to occur.
  • One way of testing such long term effectiveness is to measure the "compression set" of a sealing strip by holding the sealing strip compressed for a period of time (for example 24 hours) at a particular temperature and then removing the compression, allowing the sealing strip to become uncompressed, measuring the height and comparing it with the original height. Any different in these heights is the “compression set” and plainly the smaller the “compression set” of a sealing strip the better the long term performance of the sealing strip.
