Description

The present invention relates to a sliding element, in particular a sliding window or a sliding door, which has a sliding leaf and a non-displaceable leaf, the sliding leaf being displaceable in a running rail in front of the non-displaceable leaf.

The sliding windows and sliding doors known from the prior art (cf., for example, DE 33 43 366 A1) have the advantage that their sliding sashes do not protrude into the room in a disruptive manner or do not require any turning area to be kept free in the room. These advantages are, however, paid for in sliding elements of the generic type in that only one half of the sliding element can be opened, while the other half cannot be opened. This considerably limits the clear opening width.

The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a sliding element of the type mentioned at the outset, in which the entire opening covered by the sliding element can be released.

According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the non-displaceable wing of the sliding element is designed as a sash and the running rail is viewed in the closed state of the sliding element, is divided at the joint between the sliding sash and sash, the section of the running rail located in the area of the sash on the sash and the other section located in the area of the sliding sash is attached to the frame.

The sliding element according to the invention can initially be opened normally by pushing the sliding sash in front of the sash on the divided, but forming a functional unit when the window is closed. The sliding element is now half open, which ensures normal use (ventilation, passage). If a full opening of the sliding element is desired, the sash is unlocked first and then the package consisting of sash and sliding sash is opened like a normal sash, i.e. pivoted around the hinges attached to the frame. The sliding sash rests on the track section provided on the sash.

The sliding element described above can also be produced as a double element, whereby two sashes (sliding sash and sash sash) can be opened to the right and two sashes to the left. This allows a larger free opening field to be achieved.

Sash sashes usually have an edge latch that is accessible after opening the other sash. This edge bolt is then usually actuated to unlock the sash. The present invention deviates from this principle in that the edge bolt can be pivoted in an advantageous manner by approximately 90 ° into the plane of movement of the sliding sash. This will on the one hand unlocks the sash and on the other hand the sliding sash picked up by the sash is secured against unintentional shifting, which prevents possible damage or accidents when the two track sections are no longer in alignment when the sash is open.

In a further embodiment of the sliding element according to the invention, the sliding leaf can be displaced in the track section assigned to it in the direction of a stop on the side of the sliding leaf facing away from the sash. As a result, the sash can be opened without it having picked up the sliding sash. This solution enables windows to be completely cleaned on the outside. The cleaning takes place in such a way that the window is first opened by half the width of the sliding sash, whereby this half can be reached from the outside. Then slide the sash as far as possible in the opposite direction and open the sash. This makes it easy to clean the other half of the sliding sash and the sash.

Since there is also the risk that the sliding sash rolls out of the then separate running rail when the sash wing is opened separately, a locking means arranged on the frame and under spring tension is provided in a further embodiment of the invention, which is automatically released when the sash sash is opened and in which Swivels in the area of the sliding sash section. This prevents unintentional sliding of the sliding sash when the sash is separately opened. The guidance of the sliding sash in a guide rail is the subject of claim 5.

The invention is explained in more detail below with the aid of a double-leaf window designed according to the invention, the function of the window being characterized below The designation "sliding sash window" is used. In the accompanying drawing:

The sliding sash window has a customary frame 3, on the right side by means of rotating bands 13 a sash 2 is attached. The left wing is designed as a sliding wing 1 that can be engaged or disengaged. A description of the An engaging or disengaging mechanism can be omitted here, since this is well known.

A running rail consisting of two sections 5 and 6 is arranged on the underside of the sliding sash window. The two track sections 5 and 6 are aligned in the closed state of the window, so that the sliding sash 1 running on trolley 7 can be easily moved along the entire length of the track after it has disengaged from the sealing plane.

Between the running rail sections 5 and 6 there is a gap 12 at their abutment, which runs obliquely outwards, in order to enable problem-free pivoting of the sash 2. The inner end of the gap 12 coincides with the butt joint between the sliding sash 1 and sash 2. In this butt joint, an edge bolt 8 is provided on the side of the sash panel facing the sliding sash 1, which is not accessible when the window is closed. The function of this edge bar 8 will be explained further below.

At the two ends of the running rail stops 10, 11 are provided for the sliding sash 1, so that it cannot accidentally run out of the running rail there.

The track section 6 is fastened to the sash 2 at the bottom, while the section 5 is connected to the frame 3. This arrangement is best seen in FIGS. 7 and 8. From Fig. 6 it can be seen that a guide rail 4 is attached to the top of the sash 2. This guide rail 4 also consists of two sections, the section assigned to the sliding-wing side being fastened to the frame 3. In this respect, the arrangement of the guide rail corresponds to that of the running rail. This also applies to the design of the joint between the two guide rail sections. On a detailed presentation the guide rail can therefore be dispensed with.

The sliding forend window can be opened as follows:
The sliding sash 1 is first moved out of the sealing plane. This state is shown in Fig. 2. The sliding sash 1 can then be pushed to the right on the running rail until it abuts the stop 10. In this position, the edge bar 8 is freely accessible. This can now be swiveled downwards from the sash level by approximately 90 °. It is then in its end position in front of the sliding sash 1 so that it can no longer roll out of the track section 6.

The wings 1 and 2 pushed together into a package can now be pivoted together until the window is fully open. This situation is recorded in Fig. 4. The window is closed in the opposite way.

To clean the outside surfaces of the sliding sash window or to open the sash 2 separately, the sliding sash 1 is moved slightly to the left after it is disengaged from the sealing plane until it bears against the stop 11. The edge bolt 8 is thereby accessible and the sash 2 can be unlocked and opened. This state is shown in Fig. 5. From this illustration it can be seen that the sliding sash 1 could easily be unintentionally rolled out of the running rail section 5 without a corresponding securing device. To avoid this, a spring-loaded locking means, a lever 14, is pivotally attached to the frame 3, which is held by the sash 2 on the frame 3 when the sash is closed. This position of the lever 14 can be seen in FIGS. 2 and 3. By opening the sash 2, the lever 14 is released, and this then pivots Action of the spring force in the track section 5 (Fig. 4 and 5). When the sash 2 is opened separately, the sliding sash 1 cannot therefore unintentionally roll out of the track section 5. By closing the sash 2, the lever 14 is pressed back into its starting position.
