Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a continuous facade for buildings, with a structural lattice bearing units of glass panes with structural frames.
- Structural lattices of a continuous facade are usually defined as a metallic facade lattice, which can be of a single pane of glass, if destined to cover a wall panel, or be double-glazed if instead destined to occupy a window-space. The said windows are however supported by a metallic frame, usually made of aluminium, with the interpositioning of a special sealant known generally as "structural silicone".
- In substance, therefore, each glass unit comprises a metallic frame, which bears the glass itself by means of the structural silicone. These frames, called structural frames, are then associated to the structural lattice itself.
- The above-mentioned facades have always presented the problem of sealing effectively against water and other climactic disturbances. For this reason the space between one unit of glass and another has always been kept to an absolute minimum.
- Normally the said space is referred to as an "architectural fugue". Also for aesthetic reasons the architectural fugue is kept as far as possible to a minimum. Normally, therefore, the uprights and crossbars of the said continuous facades are arranged symmetrically with respect to the architectural fugues, and evidently are much larger than an architectural fugue. This means that, when projecting openable glass units, it is absolutely necessary to envisage an opening towards the outside, since opening towards the inside would be in any case prevented by the interference of the peripheral edge of each unit with the internal structural lattice. Also, in the prior art structures illustrated, waterproofing is guaranteed, with the water flowing entirely on the external part of the facade, as it finds the uprights and crossbars, apart from the architectural fugues, insurmountable obstacles.
- The prior art continuous facades, while considered very effective, present the considerable drawback of having to be cleaned from the outside, which, as is well-known, implies high cleaning costs.
- Another disadvantage is the possibility only of limited aeration, the opening possibility of the glass units being very limited, and then only outwardly.
- The aim of the present invention is thus that of eliminating the above drawbacks. The technical problem challenged bye this invention is that of how to create a continuous facade with glass units having structural frames as defined above, of which some are fixed, but others have the possibility of opening towards the inside, without the facade suffering some disadvantage because of this. The continuous facade of the present invention maintains a perfect seal both against water and other atmospheric agents and at the same time maintains invaried and within the mimimum limits (18mm) the dimensions of the horizontal and vertical architectural fugues of the entire facade, thus not altering the general architectural effect.
- Further, the facade offers the considerable advantage of permitting the cleaning of all of the glass units from the inside, even the fixed units, through the openings of the inwardly-openable windows.
- Better aeration and externalwards view are also made possible, and a great flexibility of the facade is also envisaged, there being various project forms available, such as fixed glass units alternated with inwardly-openable ones, and it is obviously possible to adapt usual opening forms.
- The invention, as it is characterised in the claims, solves the above-mentioned technical problem and permits of achieving the above-mentioned advantages.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the present invention will better emerge from the detailed description that follows, made with reference to the accompanying drawings, which represent a preferred embodiment here illustrated in the form of a non-limiting example, and in which:
- Figure 1 shows a schematic frontal view of the facade;
- Figure 2 shows a view according to the section line II-II of figure 1;
- Figure 3 shows a further view according to the section line III-III of figure 1;
- Figure 4 shows a view according to the section line IV-IV of figure 1;
- Figure 5 shows a view according to the section line V-V of figure 1;
- Figure 6 shows a view according to the section line VI-VI of figure 2.
- According to the present invention, the continuous facade of buildings, object of the invention, is of the type comprising a
structural lattice 1 bearingglass units 3a having fixed or mobile frames and is distinguished by the fact of having inwardlyopenable glass units 3. Conceptually, thestructural lattice 1 comprises, along the vertical and horizontal lines (V,O) identified in the sides of eachspace 5 destined to house a corresponding inwardly-opening glass unit 3: -
uprights 11 equipped with a continuousvertical conduit 14 which uprights 11, at least corresponding to thespace 5, but preferably along their entire length, divide vertically intomobile uprights 11b and fixeduprights 11a which comprise the saidconduit 14; -
crossbars 13 which, corresponding to thespace 5, horizontally divide intomobile crossbars 13b, which, together with themobile uprights 11b constitute the structural frame of the inwardly-opening glass unit 3, and fixedcrossbars 13a which, together with thefixed uprights 11a constitute the counterframe of the inwardly-opening glass unit 3, at least the lower fixedcrossbars 13a exhibiting ahorizontal channel 15, communicating bilaterally with thesaid conduits 14 of the uprights, where the draining of the infiltrated water collected by the saidhorizontal channel 15 takes place. For thisaim drainage accessories 18 of thehorizontal channel 15 are envisaged, arranged sealedly on the extreme sides of thehorizontal channel 15 and equipped with a shortinclined conduit 18a inserted directly internally to thevertical conduit 14. - It is important to observe that the vertical and horizontal
architectural fugues 16 described by all of theglass units uprights 11 andcrossbars 13, even if divided, is equal to that of traditional uprights and crossbars and the interstice between the structural frame and the counterframe of eachopenable glass unit 3 is limited to the space which is strictly necessary for the development of theledges 17, realised on thefixed crossbars 11a and on thefixed crossbars 13a, and thestrikers 17a, realised on themobile uprights 11b and themobile crossbars 13b, with at least onegasket 17b interplaced for the sealed closure of theopening glass unit 3. - These limited dimensions are obtainable, in particular, because of the invention's constructional particularities, which are now described.
- The
mobile uprights 11b of each structural frame comprise atubular body 19 for containing, on one of the uprights, closing elements having ahandle 20 externally applied, and exhibit also an externallongitudinal housing 21 with the function of creating a constraint for a part of anarticulation hinge 22 constrained, on the other side, in aseating 34 of afixed crossbar 11a of the counter frame and thus comprised in the interstice between the structural frame and counterframe. Obviously also themobile crossbars 13b are equally conformed, in order to have structural conformity in the structural frame. A frontalshaped zone 23 is present to support, withstructural silicone 24, the inwardly-opening glass unit 3. Finally, themobile uprights 11b and the saidmobile crossbars 13b also comprise aposterior tab 37 to hide theledges 17, thestrikers 17a and the articulation hinges 22 from view from the inside. - The
fixed crossbars 13a comprise a tubular strengtheningbody 25 and a frontalshaped zone 26 to meet and support astructural frame 27 offixed glass units 3a; alongitudinal tab 28 defines, with the opposite and spaced wall of the saidledges 17, thehorizontal channel 15. Thefixed uprights 11a also comprise a frontalshaped zone 29 in order to meet and support astructural frame 27 offixed glass units 3, located on the opposite side of thestriker 17a. - The
uprights 11 which, as previously mentioned, are all divisible along their entire length, are subdivided in the zones not occupied by thespaces 5 which house the inwardly-opening glass units 3, by a fixed upright 11a and a second tubular fixed upright 11c which is solidly constrainable to the first and specially strengthened by means of wall-thickening and by means of partition of its principal body into at least twotubular parts conduit 14. - Further, each upright 11, in the interruptions relative to the
joint zones 30 for thermal expansion, envisagesjoint sleeves tubular parts sleeve 33 relative to theconduit 14 is conformed with at least itssuperior edges 33a inclined, in order to ease the draining of the water and envisages an external peripheral annular throat 33b lying on a plane coincidental to that of the interruptions relative to thejoint zones 30 and having a greater breadth than the said interruption in theuprights 11, so that a positioning fixing seal 33c of thesleeve 33 can be received in the interstice between the bottom of the external peripheral annular throat 33b and the upright 11 wall. - Also the tubular
fixed uprights 11c comprise a frontalshaped zone 29a to meet and support a correspondingstructural frame 27 of fixed orusual glass units 3a. Both the tubular fixeduprights coupling wall zones
