Definitions

  • This invention relates to a retention component and arrangement, and in particular to a retention component and arrangement for use in securing a building panel in a wall opening.
  • a typical panel for which the retention component . of this invention is suitable is a window frame, specifically a factory pre-assembled double or triple glazed window unit. Such units are popular with users, but the fitting staff often find them difficult to manipulate into position in a prepared wall opening, especially in a multi-storey building in adverse weather.
  • a rectangular retaining member having an outwardly directed flange is fed into a prepared (rectangular) wall opening from one side of the wall until the flange engages the internal wall surface around the opening, and a window frame also having an outwardly directed flange is fed into the opening from the other side of the wall so as to telescope within the retaining member and until its flange engages the external wall surface around the opening; the frame is held in the retaining member by resilient tabs carried either by the retaining member or the frame and which inter-engage with respective facing grooves on the frame or retaining member.
  • this proposed arrangement can be used for various wall thicknesses, with the respective flanges sandwiching the brickwork around the wall opening, but to help ensure that the desired tight retention is obtained a resilient sealing strip positioned between the frame flange and the outer wall surface around the opening can be compressed a distance substantially in excess of the spacing between successive grooves.
  • a retention component for securing a window panel or the like in a wall opening comprising a base, a tooth projecting from one side of the base, and an abutment projecting from said one side of the base, said abutment projecting at least as far from said base as the tooth, said tooth having a retention flank.
  • a retention flank Preferably there are a plurality of teeth, and said abutment projects further from said one side of the base than said teeth.
  • the teeth will usefully be angled towards the abutment; so that if saw-teeth, then the one flank (the retention flank) will be substantially parallel to the plane of the abutment whilst the other flank (the over-ride flank) will be in a plane intersecting the abutment plane.
  • the teeth are of uniform height i.e. a common projected distance from said one side of the base; but some or all of the teeth may be of different heights to suit the intended cooperating retaining fingers, or the retention member itself may include or comprise retaining fingers. It will be understood that for ease of production the 5 teeth will preferably extend the length of the component - A -
  • Each upstanding (saw-tooth) retention flank is firmly engagable by a respective resilient retaining finger, typically one finger of a group of fingers integral with or secured to a pre-assembled glazed window unit, to provide an improved retention arrangement for the unit; during installation the retaining fingers can ride over the angled (over-ride) flank of a saw-tooth.
  • means are provided to secure a respective retention component according to the invention to each opposed side face of the opening, preferably to each vertical side face, permitting simplified alignment of the window panel during installation.
  • the window panel is inserted towards and usually up the abutment, but cannot be fed past the abutment, which is spaced inwardly of the building, and which can also provide a plaster edge, and a plaster "height level”.
  • our retention component can include nailing points or lines, whereby the component can be secured at selected positions therealong, typically aligned with (and to engage in) the mortar joints between the reveal bricks.
  • the retention component can be connected to, preferably integral with, a radially outward ' (relative to the opening) extension piece which projects from one end thereof and away from the other side of the base (i.e.
  • the retention component has mitred ends whereby it is joined to similarly shaped components to form a rectangular structure providing a former about which the bricks and blocks can be built; this design of retention component avoids the need for a temporary framework as conventionally used to define the opening, and which is removed when the brickwork is completed (perhaps leaving an opening of different dimensions to that of the panel, which may only be brought on site later) .
  • the abutment can locate a resilient sealing gasket, permitting easy finishing of a fitted window, with the gasket concealing the plaster edge. If the plaster shrinks after the window has been fitted, any gap between the plaster edge and the abutment is not visible. Draughts through the gap can be prevented.
  • the gasket can flex to follow (fitted) window movement.
  • the extension piece itself provides damp proofing and draft sealing of the cavity between the outer brickwork and inner blockwork i.e. there can be cavity closing, cavity sealing, and damp proofing.
  • Fig.l is a plan view of a fastening device suitable for use with the retention component of the present invention.
  • Fig.2 is a view (not to scale) on the line II-II of Fig.l;
  • Fig.3 is a view (not to scale) on the line III-III of Fig.l;
  • Fig. is a sectional view of one embodiment of retention component suitable for a "new-built" structure
  • Fig.5 is a part-perspective view of an alternative retention component, also suitable for a "new-built" structure
  • Fig.6 is a part-perspective view of a wall opening with a fitted retention component according to Fig.4 or Fig.5;
  • Fig.7 is of an alternative design of retention component suitable for use in a "new-build” structure
  • Fig.8 is of an alternative embodiment of retention component fitted in a "new-build” structure
  • Fig.9 is a schematic front elevation of a fitted retention component formed from an extruded plastics strip shaped according to Fig.7 or Fig.8.
  • Fig.10 is a side elevation of another alternative embodiment to that of Fig.7;
  • Fig.11 is a plan view of the embodiment of Fig.7;
  • Fig.12 is a side elevation of yet another alternative embodiment to that of Fig.7;
  • Fig.13 is a side elevation of the embodiment of Fig.12 with a window fitted
  • Fig.14 is a side elevation of a further alternative embodiment to that of Fig.7 in which three teeth formed as resilient fingers or tabs are used;
  • Fig.15 is a side elevation of an alternative embodiment to that of Fig.4, in which the teeth forming a plurality of adjacent grooves are between two teeth forming angled tabs;
  • Fig.16 is a side elevation of an alternative embodiment to that of Fig.5.
  • the fastening device 10 shown in Figs. 1,2,and 3 is the subject - o - of my co-pending European Patent Application 88902516.9. It is formed from 0.4mm thick hard rolled stainless steel, in this embodiment from a rectangular blank of 80mm X 35mm; it comprises a flat plate section 12 and two gripping members 14 5 and 16 which extend generally upwardly (as seen in Fig.2) from the plate section 12, and to the same side thereof. Between the gripping members there is retained an intermediate portion 19, in the same plane as the flat plate section 12, and which in an alternative embodiment has a nailing hole i.e. of 0 smaller diameter than screw holes 18.
  • the gripping . memhers 14, 16 have their engagement tips 15,17 axially (i.e. upwardly as seen in Fig.l) and laterally offset.
  • the gripping member 14 is in the form of a tongue, provided by a substantially planar strip punched from flat plate section
  • the second gripping member 16 is also in the form of a tongue, provided by a strip angled from plate section 12, to a
  • the gripping member 16 comprises two sections 16a and 16b.
  • the first section 16a is at 45 degrees to the plane of plate section 12
  • the second section 16b which is integral with the first section 16a, is at 85 degrees to the plate section
  • Two holes 18, aligned with gripping members 14 and 16, are formed through the plate 12; in use, fastening means such as a countersunk screw or (less preferably) a nail can be passed through each hole 18 to fix fastening device 10 to a surface, such as to the surface of a window reveal.
  • fastening means such as a countersunk screw or (less preferably) a nail can be passed through each hole 18 to fix fastening device 10 to a surface, such as to the surface of a window reveal.
  • the retention component 30 of Fig. 4 has a base 32, a plurality of saw-teeth 34 projecting from one side of the base (i.e. as seen in the view of Fig.4 generally upwardly, but inwardly of the opening in use) and providing closely-spaced adjacent grooves each shaped lockingly to receive a tab from a window or equivalent frame (e.g. tab 209 of Fig.13), and an abutment 36 extending from one longitudinal edge 38 of the base and projecting further from said one side of the base than the saw-teeth 34.
  • the teeth 34 are all to one side of the abutment 36 i.e. that side first met when a panel is inserted in direction "A".
  • the grooves are defined by an over-ride flank 34a angled to intersect the plane of the abutment and a retention flank 34b parallel to the plane of the abutment.
  • abutment 36 extends from the base a similar distance as the saw-teeth 34, whose tips are therefore resilient or deformable to allow the tab (e.g. the aforesaid tab 209 of Fig.13) to ride thereover and lockingly engage with the rear surface of a tooth whilst the frame is prevented from further inward movement (in direction "A") by 4066
  • Abutment 36 is spaced from saw teeth 34 by a foot portion 40 which includes a nailing recessed groove 42.
  • Retention component 30 has a second foot portion 44 connecting a longitudinally extending toothed member 48 (i.e. into the paper as viewed in Fig.4), toothed member 48 being of the same height as saw-teeth 34; the second foot portion 44 has a nailing recessed groove 46.
  • toothed member 48 comprises a single tooth with a rearwardly-angled taper, corresponding to the taper angle of saw teeth 34, to permit a tab finger 14,16 peripherally mounted on or integral with a frame to slide thereover with slight flexure until springing behind an upstanding locking flank.
  • Toothed member 48 can thus if required provide an interim fitting stage, wherein the frame is temporarily held whilst being checked for alignment, before being (squarely) pressed rearwardly towards abutment 36 for respective tab engagement with the upstanding (rear) flank of a tooth 34.
  • use of toothed member 48 can permit installation by a fitter acting alone.
  • Columns 50 extend from the other side of the base 32 (which is the outer side in use, relative to the panel or window opening) , and terminate in a plane substantially in line with the terminal plane of feet 40,44. In the alternative embodiment of retention component 130 shown in Fig.5, the columns 150 are made of greater height.
  • the retention component 30, 130 is extruded from plas ics material and cut to length.
  • a suitable length is secured to each of the upright, opposed facing walls 66 of a "new-built” i.e. existing, opening and secured into selected mortar joints 62 by nails 64 hammered through the grooves 42,46.
  • Abutment 36 is positioned adjacent the internal building wall, and can subsequently provide a plaster face.
  • a window frame (not shown) but suitably pre-for ⁇ ed as shown in Fig.13 and possibly double-glazed, and fitted with resilient fastening members, suitably of metal and shaped as shown in Figs.1-3, is now fed from outside the building in direction "A" inwardly towards abutment 36 (or 136 if the embodiment of Fig.5 is fitted) , and is permanently retained by engagement of one or both of finger tips 15,17 with one or more respective retention flanks of saw teeth 34,134, to effect a retention arrangement.
  • the bricklayer can lay the bricks 60 for a cavity wall structure (or even for a single wall structure) without needing the glazier to be present; another is that the retention component 30,130 can be fixed to inwardly facing sections of the wall opening when built, without the builder or window fitter /14066
  • window fitter and glazier if a non-glazed frame is fitted
  • the plasterer can continue to lay plaster internally of : the building, often using the abutment 36, 136 as a height guide and end stop.
  • Figs.7-13 are suitable for a "new-build" opening.
  • the bricklayer will typically lay a line of bricks 60 and blocks 70 to a selected height, and will then lay a further layer of either the bricks or blocks, position the extension part 200 of a preformed rectangular retention member 201 against the extra layer, and then clamp the extension part 200 in position by laying further bricks or blocks so as to sandwich the extension part 200, as seen in Fig.8.
  • Abutment 236 has a rearward angled surface 237, which provides a plastering level for plastering section 235. To help key the plaster, surface 237 is ridged.
  • Extension part 200 is of hollow extruded construction, with strengthening ribs 205; alternatively the parts can be separately extruded, and heat welded or otherwise secured together.
  • the bricklayer will seek to avoid these gaps, using if necessary 5 the, or another, extension part as a cavity spacer when building up the lower cavity wall, below the window opening.
  • the retention component can if required be laid on a bed of mortar or equivalent, or the gap can be sealed by a known resilient sealing compound.
  • Typical cavity widths are 38mm, 48mro, and 64mm.

  • abutment 236a is differently shaped to abutment 236; and as seen in the plan view of Fig.11, plastering section 235 has aperture 236, whereby in use the plaster can key through the retention member directly onto the 20 brickwork, e.g blocks 70.
  • teet 204, 206 etc. are not continuous fron one side edge 231a to the other side edge 231b; and a number of separate retention members 230, 230a may be fitted (as for Fig.6) around the aperture 203, touching or spaced apart, providing suitable 4066
  • weather sealing is used, at least for external (e.g. window panel) openings.
  • the retention component 230 which in this embodiment is integral with extension part 200, is located in position in the cavity or gap between the outerwall bricks and innerwall blocks.
  • the retention component will be cut to length, and will be connected (as by welding or adhesive or corner brackets) to similar cut lengths to form a rectangular frame, around which the bricks 60 and blocks 70 can be built to form a window opening 203 of pre-selected dimensions and size, with the rectangular frame (assembled from four retention components) locked permanently in position in the window opening, and itself defining the wall opening.
  • a window frame 205 (Fig.13) with glazing 207 can be securely positioned in the opening by being fed towards abutment 236 in direction "A".
