Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a simplified glass insertion improved window, adjustable and usable as a window in general and in particular as a one- or two- door enbloc openable window, having a profile of any kind of material, as long as it is not welded, particularly made of aluminium or plastic material, provided with assembling brackets.
  • a window of the first-mentioned type is known e.g. from EP-A-315936, consisting of a quadrangular frame with unwelded profile and having along the four sides thereof inwardly directed profile portions which are movable and form each a glass stop element suitable to snap fit into the respective side of the window frame.
  • Spacers are provided, and this is the object of this prior disclosure, mounted on the profile at least in correspondence of both ends of each side and having glass guiding and supporting surfaces.
  • FR-A-2459352 discloses a window of the second-mentioned type, in which no glass stop element is provided, as it is to be completely pre-assembled in the factory, and such that at least one screw type adjusting device, having a surface suitable to come in contact with the edge of the glass pane, can be inserted therein by drilling the frame.
  • Object of the present invention is a window assembly of the unwelded type, in which the movable glass-stop element can be applied in an extremely easy way, whereby the user himself may insert the glass - if need be - by a simple maneuver that will be hereinafter described, completing then the window installation by snap-inserting only the glass-stop element. Also adjustments of the position of the glass pane in the vertical plane can be effected by the user during the normal use after installation by means of a simple tool like a screwdriver.
  • the window according to the present invention having the features of the preamble of claim 1, is characterized in that the window side provided with glass-stop element is the lower one and the same snaps fit into the profile by means of at least two of said spacers which are of the clip type, one of them, i.e. the farthest from the lower hinge will not usually be in contact with the glass pane, having a horizontal surface at a lower level with respect to the corresponding surface of the opposite spacer on which the glass pane normally rests in use, at a length of the inner end of its lower edge.
  • the screw adjusting devices are in number of two, located opposite each other in the upper corner zone of the window, farthest from the hinge.
  • a window according to the present invention simply consisting of a single door 1 with closing handle 2, mounted by means of hinges 3, 3a on a dummy window frame 4 secured in turn on a dummy wall frame 5 (visible in Fig. 3).
  • Fig.1 there can be seen, represented in dotted line, the slits made in profile 10 of door 1 for the insertion of supports, also called spacers being in the form of clips, as well as of the glass adjusting devices provided for by the present invention.
  • the movable part 6 of the glass-stop element has been provided on the lower side of profile 10.
  • the section of profile 10 at the lower horizontal side thereof is shaped as represented in Fig.
  • the window according to the invention consists therefore of a one-piece element comprising two dummy frames (the one enbedded in the wall being not visible) and an actual window 1 the profile 10 of which is shaped so as to have an inwardly removable horizontal side, as previously said, and to house at least three spacers or supports 7, 8, and 9 having different functions which will be better specified hereinafter, and located respectively in correspondence of the two lower corners and the upper inner one, namely in the proximity to hinge 3a, as well as at least one adjusting device 11 located at the upper outer corner of the window.
  • a device 11 comprising a supporting and housing block 11a, across which runs a threaded shank 12 passing through a likewise threaded hole of block 11a.
  • shank 12 On the outer side of shank 12 there is provided a simple or a cross notch, directly made either in the shank itself or in one of the heads thereof and intended for its actuation from outside by means of a suitable tool.
  • shank 12 At its opposite side, facing the inside of the window, shank 12 carries a small plate 13 having any profile, preferably a round one, linked thereto e.g.
  • Device 11 can be conveniently inserted on the inside of profile 10 by means of the provision for a pushbutton 14 being resiliently pushed out of block 11a through a hole 15a by the action of a spring 15.
  • the adjusting devices 11 are preferably two, set at 90° with respect to each other so as to act upon two contiguous sides of glass 20.
  • Fig. 7 is also shown more clearly the way in which the said block 11a is positioned and locked by means of pushbutton 14.
  • FIG. 4a is shown a side view taken along arrow A of Fig. 3; in Fig. 4b is shown another side view of the same element, taken along a direction orthogonal to the previous one, and specifically the direction of arrow B of Fig. 4a, whilst in Fig. 4c is shown a plan view from above of the element itself.
  • Spacer 7 is step-like shaped, with two different glass supporting plane surfaces 18, 18a and hooking members 19, 19a for the coupling to profile inner parts (not shown), as well as grooved parts 17 for the coupling with the protruding elements 16 of the glass-stop element 6, as already seen in Fig. 3.
  • Fig. 4b shows that the said grooves 17 are preferably provided on both sides of spacer 7 so that it can thus be indifferently used for the right or left door of a double window, without having to provide differentiated spacers or clips in this regard.
  • the clip type spacer or support is made of plastic material; more particularly, the part provided with grooves 17 should be so resilient as to enable the pressure insertion of elements 16 which, as it appears from Fig.
  • the glass-stop element 6, however, is not held by the support clip spacer 7 of the glass pane 20 only, but by at least another clip type spacer 8 located on the lower outer corner of the window, that is to say at the opposite end of the glass-stop element 6 with respect to support 7.
  • Figgs. 5a, 5b and 5c show an embodiment of the said clip type spacer 8 provided with only one groove 17, as only the lower protruding element 16 of the glass-stop element 6 is intended to fit therein, whilst the upper one will remain free above the horizontal plane surface 22 thereby defined.
  • the said plane surface 22 will be at lower level than that of plane surface 18a, but corresponding, on the contrary, to the lower step plane surface 18 of step-shaped element 7.
  • Spacer 8 in fact, as will be better apparent hereinafter, is not for supporting the glass pane, except temporarily during the assembly thereof, but only for holding the glass-stop element 6 in its place.
  • an upper guiding or supporting spacer 9 of glass 20 simply consists of a small block of plastic material, having a smooth surface 26 for supporting the glass laterally, in the proximity to the upper inner corner thereof, besides two hooking elements 25, 27, fitting with suitably shaped parts located inside profile 10, on faces orthogonal to each other.
  • Fig. 7 is a detailed, though schematic representation of a corner or link area between two orthogonal sides of profile 10, lying at the upper outer corner of the window, where adjusting devices 11 usually are located, this time being two in number and acting upon adjacent sides, perpendicular to each other, of glass pane 20.
  • the assembly brackets 30 and 30a, relevant to the window frame profile 10 and to the dummy frame 4, respectively, are also shown.
  • the function of the window according to the present invention is as follows.
  • the glass pane 20 is inserted inside the frame defined by profile 10 starting from the inner side, namely the one adjacent to hinges 3, 3a, the lower side of glass pane 20 resting on the plane surface 22 of spacer 8 and on the lower step surface 18 of support 7, the glass-stop element 6 being kept aside.
  • the glass pane will be driven towards the inner or hinge side until it comes in contact with the vertical shoulder of the support clip spacer 7, comprised between steps 18 and 18a, after which it will be raised upwards until its lower inner end rests on the upper step surface 18a.
  • the glass pane is arranged in its proper final position by acting upon the screw adjusting devices 11, and its upper inner edge will touch the upper guiding or supporting spacer 9.
  • the glass pane 20 is supported and/or guided on at least three zones, namely the small plates 13 of the adjusting devices, the support (and glass-stop holding) spacer 7 and the upper supporting spacer 9.
  • the lower spacer 8 will be normally unloaded, with the only function, besides that of temporary support during the glass assembly, of snap holding the glass-stop element, like the intermediate clips - if any - that can be provided on the same window frame side. The contact with glass occurs thus on three sides only, with considerable advantages as far as the consequence of thermal expansions are concerned.
  • the glass insertion may take place both in the factory and in the building site according to convenience criteria established each time by the window supplier himself who, by preparing as from the beginning the spacers and clips supporting the glass and the pressure insertable glass-stop elements, expressly requires, in any case, that a given assembly line of glass sheets or panes should be followed, even when the assembly is carried out by other people such as the glazier or the user himself.
  • the window will be an enbloc unit between frame and curtain walls.
  • the aluminium structural shapes could be changed as well as the plastic or wood sections forming the sides of the real window or the dummy frames, and particularly the glass-stop element, as long as the herein claimed main features of the invention are observed.
