Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a device for opening a window or a door, particularly of the sliding type.
- When renovating facades with balconies, these are sometimes closed in order to thereby provide a relatively inexpensive extension of the inhabited area by means of a exterior room, which thus may be utilized throughout the year.
- Normally there will be access to a balcony from a room situated behind or next to the balcony. However, now and then there will also be rooms located behind or next to the balcony from which there is no acces to the balcony, while the only openable windows belonging to such rooms open out into the balcony. In such a case the fire authorities require that it must be possible for a person in distress in the room to attract the attention of the rescue party by crying for help or by signaling in some other manner. This possibility does not exist if the windows of the closed balcony cannot be opened from the room without direct access to the balcony.
- The object of the invention is therefore to provide a device, which can easily be installed in connection with sliding windows, sliding glass, or sliding doors, such that these may be opened by means of remote control from the room in question without direct access to the balcony.
- The object is according to the invention fulfilled by a device including a driver, where said driver is designed in such a way that it may be moved from a passive position to an opening position, thus moving the door or the window from a closed position to an opened position, a spring for actuating the driver in a direction towards the opening position, a coupling device for retaining the driver in the passive position, which coupling device can be activated and inactivated, and a guide rail system for controlling the movement of the driver from the passive position to the opening position. Thus a device that is easily installed in connection with existing sliding windows is achieved, where the said device does not obstruct or affect the normal operation of the window. In addition it is achieved that the driver of the device, after having released or inactivated the coupling device, easily may be returned to the passive position, and may be fixed in this position by activating the coupling device.
- In one embodiment the spring is a coiled spring. Thus a very simple embodiment of the device is achieved.
- In a further embodiment the coiled part of the coiled spring is provided with a bearing, the uncoiled part of the spring extending from the coiled part along the guide rail to a fastener for the outer end of the uncoiled part, the fastener or the bearing being fixed to the driver while the other is fixed with respect to the frame of the window or door.
- The releasable coupling device is preferably operated by remote control and may include an electromagnet for fixing the driver in its passive position.
- The device can include a damper, which dampens the movement of the driver.
- In a second embodiment of the invention the device includes a member designed to be fixed, a movable member, where the spring is designed to actuate the movable member in a direction away from the fixed member, a flexible pulling means, such as a wire, which at one end is connected to one of the said members while by way of roll means being guided around at least the other of said members and at its other end being connected to the driver, such that a movement of the movable member away from the fixed member causes a driver movement, which is at least twice as large.
- In a further embodiment the device comprises a housing designed for fixed mounting, wherein the fixed member is mounted, including a slot through which the driver extends. Furthermore the spring, for instance a gas-filled spring, can be designed as a compression spring, and the two members may include journal means, these being attached to opposite ends of the spring while supporting said roll means.
- The invention will in the following be explained in more detail by means of exemplary embodiments and with reference to the drawing, in which
- Figure 1 shows a section of sliding glass in a balcony, where the device according to the invention is installed,
- Figure 2 the device in Figure 1 in a vertical sectional view along its longitudinal axis,
- Figure 3 the device in Figure 1 in a horizontal sectional view,
- Figure 4 the device shown in Figures 2 and 3 in a vertical cross-sectional view,
- Figure 5 a vertical sectional view of the device in Figure 1 according to a second embodiment,
- Figure 6 a cut along axis III-III in Figure 5 and
- Figure 7 a cut along axis IV-IV in Figure 5.
- In Figure 1 a section of sliding glass in a closed balcony is shown schematically and from the inside, where the section comprises
posts 1, 2, top and bottomwindow frame members sliding glass members 5, 6, 7, which may be suspended from rails in the top member of theframe 3 or driven through rails in the bottom member of theframe 4. - An
opening device 8 is by means of amounting 9 suspended from the top member of thewindow frame 3. Theopening device 8 includes a driver 11 (Figure 3), which extends through a slot in thehousing 13 of theopening device 8. The driver 11, which in Figure 1 is concealed behind theopening device 8, is in contact with theleft side edge 14 of the sliding glass 5 (Figure 1). - Figures 2-4 show the design of the
opening device 8 illustrated in Figure 1. This comprises thehousing 13 in the shape of a pipe with a rectangular cross section, at the side of which theslot 12 is provided. In thehousing 13 anelectromagnet 25 and aframe 29 is provided, the end of theframe 29 being designed with a holdingplate 30 for theelectromagnet 25. In theframe 29 coiledsprings 27 with uncoiled ends 28 are mounted ontoaxles 26, where the said uncoiled ends 28 are fastened to thehousing 13 at the opposite end of the said housing with respect to theelectromagnet 25. Thus thesprings 27 will attempt to pull theframe 29 away from theelectromagnet 25. - As shown in Figure 3, the driver 11 is attached to one of the
axles 26, and is thus connected to theframe 29. The driver 11 is provided with anarm 23 for engaging with theleft side edge 14 of the sliding glass 5. - The
frame 29 is connected to apiston 32 of an air-filledcylinder 33 by means of apiston rod 31, the air-filledcylinder 33 functioning as a damper for the movement of theframe 29. The air-filledcylinder 33 is supplied with anoutlet 34 and anadjustment screw 35 for adjusting the damping effect of the air-filledcylinder 33. - The
electromagnet 25 is connected to acurrent source 36 through a set of electrical leads 37. When the electromagnet is activated, i.e. connected to thecurrent source 36, it fixes the holdingplate 30 and thus operates as a coupling device for retaining the driver 11 in a passive position. - In order to release the holding
plate 30 and thus theframe 29 and the driver 11 the electromagnet is inactivated by disconnecting the electrical connection to thecurrent source 36 by means of aswitch 38. - The
opening device 8 vil normally be in the passive position shown in Figures 2 and 3, where the driver 11 by means of theelectromagnet 25 is fixed in the shown extreme position, which in Figure 1 is furthest to the left. When the driver 11 is in this passive position, the slidingglass members 5, 6, and 7 can be operated in the usual manner. In addition the sliding glass member 5 and possibly also 6 can be opened, i.e. slid towards the right in Figure 1, by disconnecting the current supplied to theelectromagnet 25, thus releasing the driver 11, which due to the force provided by thesprings 27 will be moved towards the left in Figures 1, 2, and 3, and the sliding glass 5 will follow as a result of the engagement of thearm 23 with theside edge 14 of the said sliding glass 5. - In a second embodiment shown in Figures 5-7 the opening device is designed with a
housing 13, wherein there onto abolt 15 are mounted twopulleys 16, one on each side of the gas-filledspring 17, one end of which likewise is attached to thebolt 15, which in the shown instance in addition is utilized for fastening one of themountings 9. Thebolt 15 and the members mounted onto said bolt are thus fixed with respect to thewindow frame member 3 above the sliding glass members. - The gas-filled
spring 17 has apiston rod 18, at the end of which twoadditional pulleys 19 are mounted by means of a traversing pin not shown. Thepiston rod 18 is designed such that it moves together with thepulleys 19, and such that this movement is performed in the lengthwise direction of thehousing 13. - A
wire 20 is by means of awire lock 21 fastened onto one of thepulleys 16. From this position the wire is placed around one of thepulleys 19, then around theother pulley 16 in order to finally be placed around theother pulley 19, and from there to the driver 11. - The placement of the
wire 20 is further apparent in Figures 6 and 7, where the connection to the driver 11 by way of abranch 22 is evident. Besides thebranch 22 the driver 11 includes anarm 23 for engagement with the sliding glass and atab 24 for engagement with thecoupling device 10, which in addition to thetab 24 comprises anelectromagnet 25. - As apparent in Figure 1, several disconnecting
switches 28 may be provided, and these may be placed as desired in different rooms, while a disconnectingswitch 38 also may be placed on the outside, since this in certain cases is required by the fire authorities. Furthermore, one of theswitches 38 may be an automatic switch, for instance designed as a smoke detector or the like, such that it disconnects the current in case of fire. - The driver can be connected to the sliding glass 5 for instance by means of a sliding bolt. Thus it is avoided that the glass can be opened for instance by a child. It will however not be possible as such to bolt the sliding glass to the
post 2 by means of a sliding bolt, since the opening device in that case will not be able to open the sliding glass 5 unless the bolted attachment is released at the same time as the coupling device or theelectromagnet 25.
