Definitions

  • the invention relates to an opening device for the sash of windows, doors or the like, consisting of a mounting rail to be fastened in the frame on the frame side and a holding rail also engaging in the sash on the wing side, and two links, each of which at least on the one hand with the mounting rail and on the other hand with the holding rail pivotable - preferably inseparable - is connected.
  • Display devices of this type are already known, for example from EP-PS 0 204 267 and US-PS 3 722 142.
  • the two handlebars have different lengths and are each connected via a swivel joint to the bearing rail and the holding rail, in such a way that they form a trapezoidal handlebar, the shortest link of which is the wing-side holding rail.
  • two links are also provided between the frame-side bearing rail and the wing-side holding rail.
  • these are not only in direct articulation by means of a connecting bolt in the manner of a so-called cross shear, but they each have an articulated attack on the frame-side bearing rail and their other end on the wing-side holding rail.
  • each of the two links can only pivotally engage the bearing rail or holding rail with one of its ends, while its other end can then be pivotally connected to the holding rail or bearing rail, as can be seen, for example, from US Pat. No. 1,864,164 .
  • the sash During the opening and closing movement, the sash not only moves away from the plane of the frame with its rollover in the normal direction, but at the same time it also translates in a direction parallel to the plane of the frame.
  • the bearing rail to be fastened in the rebate with in their longitudinal direction provided elongated holes through which the fastening screws to be anchored in the frame reach through.
  • the fastening screws must be loosened so that the bearing rail can be moved relative to the window frame according to the respective needs. Then the fastening screws have to be tightened again so that the setting of the bearing rail that has changed compared to the frame is properly fixed.
  • one of the two swivel joints of each handlebar namely the swivel joint of the short handlebar assigned to the wing-side holding rail and the swivel joint of the long handlebar assigned to the frame-side bearing rail, are designed to be uncouplable in order to be able to be hooked in and unhooked of the wing relative to the fixed frame.
  • the joints of both links are in an inseparable connection both with the frame-side bearing rail and with the wing-side holding rail. The result of this is that cumbersome manipulations are always required for the hanging and unhooking of each wing relative to the fixed frame, while at the same time a correspondingly aligned mounting or support of the opened wing with respect to the fixed frame must be ensured.
  • the main object of the invention is to provide an opening device of the type mentioned for the sash of windows, doors or the like, in which a simple and safe possibility of hanging and unhooking the sash on the fixed frame can be reached and thereby the permanently secure opening and locking function for the wing is guaranteed.
  • the invention also aims to provide an opening device of the type specified at the outset, which permits a position adjustment of the wing relative to the frame without loosening and tightening the fastening screws for the holding rail on the frame and / or the bearing rail on the wing .
  • the main task according to the invention is basically achieved in that at least the bearing rail with bases mounted on the folded surface of the fixed frame can be brought into a releasable, form-fitting plug-in connection and can be locked in its engagement position against it.
  • the advantage of this solution principle is that the base can be pre-assembled on the folded surface of the fixed frame completely independently of the display device, for example with the aid of special stop gauges, it then being possible at any time to remove the essential part to bring the functional opening device forming bearing rail into and out of operative connection with these bases on the fixed frame.
  • each end of the bearing rail is assigned a base mounted on the rabbet surface of the fixed frame, because this ensures an exact alignment of the bearing rail on the fixed frame which is necessary for the correct opening and closing operation of the leaf .
  • one of the bases has an angular shape and is mounted in a corner zone of the frame rebate circumferential surface, there is a particularly good mounting for the bearing rail, because an angle leg is in each case in contact with a frame leg and a stable fixing of the base is thereby achieved.
  • the bearing rail has a flat U cross-section and with its U-legs suitably encompasses the longitudinal edges of the base, that one end of the bearing rail has a laterally offset tongue with which it can be inserted or inserted into an adapted opening of one base, and that the bearing rail can be fixed at least in the vicinity of its other end via an adjustable latch on the other base.
  • the adjustable bolt has a rotary toggle which is stiffly movable on the second base and an associated engagement opening in the web of the bearing rail.
  • the rotary toggle can be designed so that it not only securely overlaps the edge of the engagement opening in the bearing rail in its operative position, but also, for example by corresponding eccentricity of its bearing shaft, also produces a compressive force in the longitudinal direction of the bearing rail, which is in the direction of engagement of the tongue is effective for the adapted opening of the base.
  • the two bases are connected at a predetermined distance, preferably in one piece, by an intermediate piece.
  • This not only ensures the exact distance between the two bases, but also makes it easier to attach them to the circumferential fold surface of the fixed frame.
  • the dimensional stability of the bearing rail can also be improved in this way, because it then not only suitably encompasses the two bases but also the intermediate piece with its U-legs.
  • This design is particularly suitable for windows and doors that are made of plastic or metal profiles, because then the base and the connecting piece connecting them can be precisely adapted in their cross-sectional shape to the respective profile, while the bearing rail can be given the same design in all cases.
  • the base and the bearing rail can be connected to the fixed frame by screws as well as additionally, in such a way that even larger sash weights, for example up to 130 kg, can be safely introduced into the fixed frame.
  • the configuration according to the invention for opening devices is applicable to windows and doors, the leaves of which can be opened relative to the fixed frame in the rotating position, in the tilted position or in the folded position.
  • two identical opening devices then act together in the manner of multi-joint hinges.
  • the use of the opening devices according to the invention is preferably provided for windows and doors with a tilt and turn sash.
  • the horizontally installed opening device is effective as a tilt and turn corner bearing.
  • the horizontally installed opening device has an opening arm instead of a wing-side holding rail, which - with the help of a built-in espagnolette fitting - for the locking position and the opening of the sash can be coupled with it in parallel position to the sash level, while opposite to open the sash this can be released to enable a limited inclined position.
  • Limiting the bank the extension arm is thereby caused that on the one hand its free end engages pivotably on the wing over a limited path and that on the other hand - to form a so-called elliptical link - it interacts with an additional arm which is only pivotably articulated both on the extension arm and on the wing.
  • the further object of the invention is achieved in that the exclusively pivotably mounted handlebar is seated with at least one of its joints on a slide which is supported in a longitudinally adjustable manner against the bearing rail or holding rail via an adjusting member.
  • the adjusting member can consist of a threaded element that is rotatable and non-displaceable, e.g. is supported on the bearing rail or holding rail, while on the other hand it is in engagement with a counter thread, for example in the slide.
  • an eccentric can also be used as an adjusting member, which on the one hand is difficult to turn, e.g. is mounted in the slide, while on the other hand it is in permanent engagement with an elongated hole lying transversely to the direction of movement of the slide, for example in the bearing or holding rail.
  • both joints of the exclusively pivotably mounted handlebar each interact with a slide and an adjusting member engaging thereon, in which case one slide with the associated adjusting member of the frame-side holding rail and the other slide with the associated adjusting member wing-side bearing rail is assigned.
  • the configuration according to the invention for opening devices can be used in the case of windows and doors whose wings are opposite the window frame open in the turn position, in the tilt position or in the folding position.
  • two identical opening devices then act together in the manner of multi-joint hinges.
  • the use of the opening devices according to the invention is preferably provided for windows and doors with a tilt and turn sash.
  • the horizontally installed opening device is effective as a tilt and turn corner bearing.
  • the horizontally installed opening device has an opening arm instead of a wing-side holding rail, which - with the aid of a built-in connecting rod fitting for the locking position and the opening of the wing can be coupled with it in a parallel position to the wing level, while it is used to tilt the wing towards it Allowing a limited inclination can be released.
  • the subject matter of the invention can be used in connection with such opening devices, in which at least the bearing rail can be brought into releasably form-fitting plug-in connections with bases mounted on the folded peripheral surface of the fixed frame and can be locked in their engagement position against these bases.
  • a training feature according to the innovation consists in the fact that the slide is accommodated or received in a free space of the holding rail which is remote from the fastening points of the base and the holding rail.
  • the free space of the holding rail is assigned a free space in the base and the slide is located within both free spaces.
  • the joint consists of an eccentric pin which is connected to the handlebars so as to be stiffly rotatable and can be detachably connected to a bearing bush of the wing-side holding rail.
  • An expedient structural design of the subject matter of the invention also lies in the fact that the eccentric pin has a collar below the bearing bush, which has tool engagement surfaces, e.g. for an open-end wrench, and that the eccentric pin is caulked or riveted to the handlebar.
  • a window or a window door is shown in a schematic representation in which the wing 2 rests on the fixed frame 1 in its closed position.

  • the deployment device 50 formed by the two control arms 6 and 7 according to FIG. 12 is equipped on the one hand with a bearing rail 51 for attachment to the frame 1 and on the other hand with a holding rail 52 for attachment to the sash 2.
  • the bearing rail 51 on the one hand forms the support for the swivel joint 3 'of the handlebar 6 and on the other hand contains the sliding joint 4' / 8 'for the handlebar 7.
  • the holding rail 52 contains the swivel joint 3' 'for the handlebar 6 and on the other hand equipped with the sliding joint 4 '' / 8 '' for the handlebar 7.
  • tilting devices 50 between the lower horizontal and the upper horizontal rebate circumferential surfaces of the frame 1 and sash 2 - covered - installed, with the bearing rail 51 in each case abutting the horizontal folded peripheral surface of the frame 1, while the holding rail 52 is embedded in a profile groove on the folded peripheral surface of the wing 2.
  • an opening device 50 is used as the tilt-and-turn corner bearing between the lower horizontal rebate peripheral surfaces of frame 1 and sash 2, which fully matches the opening devices 50 for rotating sashes.
  • the opening device 50 for the tilt-and-turn sash arranged between the upper horizontal fold peripheral surfaces of the frame 1 and sash 2 is designed such that the opening arm 5 'of the tilt-and-turn opening device 5 takes the place of the holding rail 52 arranged on the wing side, as shown in FIG. 3 of the drawing is indicated.
  • the swivel joint 3 ′′ of the link 6 and the sliding joint 4 ′′ / 5 ′′ for the link 7 of the opening device 50 there are therefore provided on or in the opening arm 5 ′.
  • the same opening devices 50 are used for installation in windows with tilting or folding sashes, as are provided for windows and doors with rotating sashes. In this case, however, they are installed in a concealed manner between the upright fold peripheral surfaces of frame 1 and sash 2.
  • the wing 2 can be precisely adjusted relative to the frame 1 with as few simple steps as possible - that is to say without problems.
  • Such an adjustment of the wing 2 relative to the frame 1 is not only necessary when carrying out the stop work and / or when installing the windows and doors in a building for the first time. Rather, it must also be possible at any time later in order to be able to compensate for or eliminate the changes in position which are inevitable in practical use - the setting - of the sash 2 relative to the frame 1.
  • the joint 3 ′ of the link 6 is seated on a slide 31, which is guided along the bearing rail 51 with limited longitudinal movement, for example in a profile of approximately U-shaped cross section thereof.
  • An eccentric 39 serves as an adjusting member for the slide 31 relative to the bearing rail 51, which is stiffly rotatable on the slide 31 and is in permanent engagement with an elongated hole 40 directed in the transverse direction of the bearing rail 51.
  • the only pivotally mounted handlebar 6 of the opening device 50 with its second joint 3 '' can be connected to the wing-side holding rail 52 in a limited transverse manner so that - if required - the sealing pressure between the wing 2 and the frame 1 with the window or window closed closed window door can be varied appropriately.
  • an eccentric pin 53 is used to form the joint 3 ′′, which is connected to the handlebar 6 so as to be stiffly rotatable, for example connected to it at 54 by caulking or riveting.
  • This eccentric pin detachably engages with its shaft 55 in a bearing bush 56, which in turn is received in a non-rotatable manner in a cavity 57 of the holding rail 52.
  • the eccentric pin 53 has a collar 58 which is provided on its circumference with tool engagement surfaces 58a, for example for an open-end wrench. With the help of the open-ended wrench, a sensitive shift of the eccentricity of the eccentric pin 53 on the Handlebar 6 made and the pressure of the wing 2 against the frame 1 can be regulated in a corresponding manner.
  • the sliding joint 4 '/ 8' on the bearing rail 51 comprises a slide valve 59, which consists of a wear-resistant and unbreakable material and in which the pivot pin 4 'is mounted.
  • the slide valve 59 is guided with a substantially rectangular foot portion 60 stably guided within the free U-cross section of the bearing rail 51, while it projects with a neck part 61 into the longitudinal slot 8 'of the bearing rail 51.
  • the hinge pin 4 ′′ of the sliding joint 4 ′′ / 8 ′′ on the holding rail 52 also interacts with a slide slide 62, which is made of a break-proof but elastically deformable material, for example hard plastic.
  • This slide valve 62 has a U-cross section which is open at the top in some areas, the inner boundary surfaces of the opening region 63 being delimited, for example, in an approximately trapezoidal manner.
  • a screw member 65 is held adjustable via thread 64, which has a head piece 66 which diverges conically from bottom to top.
  • the slide slide 62 is more or less spread over the head piece 66 located in the opening area 63, so that it forms a friction brake with the longitudinal walls of the sliding slot 8 ′′ in the holding rail 52.
  • this friction brake With the help of this friction brake the smoothness of the opening movement of the wing 2 relative to the frame 1 can be regulated.
  • the set screw 65 is easily accessible with the sash 2 open in the rotational position with a socket wrench.
