Definitions

  • the invention relates to a concealed lower corner bearing for pivoting, in particular pivoting / tilting windows, doors or the like, with one arranged between the lower edge of the wing and the lower cross member of the fixed frame, when the wing is opened, one transverse to the wing plane subsequent displacement of the wing rotation axis effecting linkage and an arranged between the fixed frame and wing in the pivot axis area, extending essentially in the longitudinal direction of the support rod, which is supported with its lower end on the fixed frame and carries the wing on the axis of rotation.
  • Concealed lower corner bearings of the above type are e.g. known from DE-OS 38 29 053. With them, the support rod supports the sash frame with its upper end, whereby this support point experiences a downward displacement when the sash is moved outwards or when the sash is turned, which causes the sash to sag correspondingly on its swivel axis side.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of creating a corner bearing of the type mentioned which does not have the abovementioned shortcomings, but rather simpler Design prevents the wing from sagging when it is turned.
  • the support rod is advantageously tapered at its lower end like a trunnion and above it is supported in a bearing pot on a fixed frame rail at its end facing the axis of rotation, while the hanging joint is hook-like at its free lower end and angled upwards in one at the end of a sash frame rail on the axis of rotation attached hook eye is hooked.
  • the interacting with the new support scissors handlebar linkage is advantageous of the type known from claim 8 of DE-PS 21 13 665, namely provided with a fixed on the lower cross member of the fixed frame near the axis of rotation fixed support arm and two articulated, articulated parallel to the lower edge of the wing articulated parallel link , which, together with the support arm and the lower edge of the wing, form a handlebar parallelogram, and the one parallel link is extended via its joint connection point on the support arm to a control arm which is guided with its free end in a guide slot provided on the fixed frame so as to be longitudinally displaceable.
  • control arm in the extension of the parallel link near the pivot axis and the guide slot for the free control arm end lie in the area of the support arm or the handlebar parallelogram and thereby still require a correspondingly wide corner bearing design
  • control arm is present on the parallel link located at a distance from the wing axis of rotation and the guide slot is arranged outside the pivoting range of the support arm.
  • the rotating / tilting window shown in Fig.1 consists of the fixed frame 1 and the hinged window sash, which can be rotated both about a vertical axis and tiltable about a lower horizontal axis 2.
  • the sash is at its lower corner on the roof side above the in Fig.1 generally designated 3 corner bearings on the one hand and provided with an above-arranged, generally designated 4 scissors or connected to the fixed frame 1 above.
  • the opening device 4, as shown in FIG. 1, is arranged so that it is completely concealed, so that nothing can be seen from the outside of these fitting parts. Only the actuating handle 5 required for operating the opening device 4 via a connecting rod gear is visible as a window fitting part and is directly accessible.
  • the upper display device 4 is of a conventional nature. The narrow construction known from DE-OS 29 40 049 is advantageously used for this.
  • the lower corner bearing 3 has a linkage which, when the wing 2 is rotated, causes the lower end of its axis of rotation to be displaced transversely to the wing plane.
  • This handlebar linkage is in particular of the nature clearly visible in FIG. It consists of the fixed frame rail 6 to be attached to the lower cross member 1 'of the fixed frame, the supporting link 7, the two parallel link arms 8 and 9 with the control arm 9' located in its extension, and the sash frame rail 10 to be attached to the lower edge of the wing 2 3 and 4 in the pivot axis area between the fixed frame 1 and the wing 2 in the pivot axis area and essentially extending in the longitudinal direction of the support rod 11 with the hinge joint 12 hinged approximately centrally on it, at the lower end of which the wing 2 hangs.
  • the support arm 7 is articulated with its one end near the axis of rotation via the pin 13 on the fixed frame rail 6 and with its other end via the joint pin 14 with the control arm 9 'or the parallel link 9 articulated. Furthermore, the parallel link 8 is articulated to the support link 7 via the pivot pin 14 '.
  • the parallel links 8, 9 are articulated immovably on the casement rail 10 via the hinge pins 15, 16.
  • the parallel link 8.9 together with the support link 7 and the sash rail 10 form a link parallelogram.
  • a guide slot 17 is provided on the fixed frame rail 6 outside the pivoting range of the supporting link 7, in which the fixed frame end 9 ′′ of the control arm is guided so as to be longitudinally displaceable via the articulation guide pin 18.
  • the sash rail 10 and thus the wing are controlled during its rotary opening movement in cooperation with the support arm 7 so that the lower wing corner describes an approximate circular movement about the fictitious axis of rotation of the wing.
  • an upwardly projecting stop bar 6 ' is provided on the outer edge, against which the supporting links 7 and the two parallel links 8, 9 rest in the wing closed position. Furthermore, on the upper side of the sash rail 10 there are fastening heads 20 which are penetrated by fastening screw holes 19 and which engage in a groove provided on the lower edge of the sash frame and ensure secure fastening of the rail 10 to the sash.
  • the support rod 11 and the hinge joint 12 which is articulated approximately centrally on it form a support scissor which contributes significantly to the removal of the sash weight in the area of the pivot axis, so that the links 7, 8, 9 and 9 'of the corner joint remain substantially relieved of this.
  • Both the support rod 11 and the hanging joint 12 consist of correspondingly punched flat material, the hanging joint being shaped into a U-shaped fork profile encompassing the supporting rod 11.
  • the support rod 11 is tapered at its lower end 11 'and supported above it in a bearing pot 21 which is seated on the fixed frame rail 6 at its end facing the axis of rotation. At its upper end, the support rod 11 has a sliding head 22 made of plastic, which is guided in a guide rail 23 provided on the sash frame 2 so that it can slide and slide.
  • the hanging joint 12 is hook-shaped at its lower end and is hooked above it into the hook eye 24, which is attached at the pivot axis end of the sash frame 10 and is angled upward. Because the hanging joint 12 has a fork profile T-shaped incisions 12 '' are provided on its free leg ends to form the hooks 12 ', while at the end of the sash frame rail 10 on the axis of rotation, the retaining eyelet 24 provided here is provided with two eyelet slots lying side by side.
