Definitions

  • the invention relates to a corner connector on bars of windows, doors or the like.
  • angle legs which can be fixed in the bars and are pivotally connected to one another in their apex region perpendicular to the angle plane.
  • Corner connectors are used to connect spars that meet at an angle and are mitred or butted.
  • the spars are regularly arranged at a right angle.
  • the known corner connectors are one-piece angles with angle legs arranged at right angles to one another, which engage in cavities in the spars and are firmly anchored therein, e.g. by jamming.
  • Special measures must be taken if spars are not arranged at right angles to each other, but include acute or obtuse angles, or if a round arch spar connects to a straight spar at an angle. It is then necessary to use corner connectors which are specially adapted to the given angular constellation, with the result that the one-piece corner connectors can only be used for the special application.
  • each angle leg has a closed eyelet and both eyelets are connected to one another with a threaded or tapered pin.
  • a pen is an undesirable, because it is an additional component and represents a component that cannot be detached or can only be removed with considerable effort.
  • the known angle arms are only suitable for pivoting angles of 90 ° and larger.
  • the invention has for its object to improve a corner connector with the features mentioned in such a way that it can be used for practically all corner angle combinations without requiring special structural preparations on the corner connector.
  • a T-shaped axle bolt which forms the swivel axis, is provided on one angle leg, which engages behind the other angle leg with a transverse web through an elongated hole in a bayonet-like manner, the transverse web and the elongated hole in each case being identical in relation to the angle legs assigned to them are aligned.
  • the angle legs of the corner connector are pivotally connected to one another.
  • the angle legs can be arranged at different angles to one another.
  • the exact angular arrangement of the angled legs does not need to be predetermined before installation in the spars. Rather, it results from the structurally provided pivotability of the angle legs in connection with the angle at which the spars are arranged relative to one another.
  • the corner connector is in two parts. As a result, the two angle legs must be assembled. The assembly must be carried out in such a way that unintentional separation of the angle legs from one another does not occur in the usual installation positions.
  • the axle bolt provided with a crossbar of a first angle leg interacts with an elongated hole of a second angle leg in such a way that there is only a single arrangement of the two angle legs in relation to one another in which these can be connected to one another.
  • the crossbar and the elongated hole are each aligned identically with respect to the angle legs assigned to them.
  • the corner connector it is possible to design the corner connector so that its angled legs always have optimal connection strength in a relative right-angled arrangement, because the transverse web of one angled leg and the elongated hole of the other angled leg are arranged perpendicular to one another, so that the bayonet-like engagement behind the transverse web leads to a maximum engagement area leads. If, on the other hand, the crossbar and the elongated hole are aligned unequally, there is not only a reduced connection strength of the angle legs with their right-angled arrangement, but also a different connection reliability depending on whether the angle legs enclose an acute angle or an obtuse angle with one another.
  • the release position lies in an angular range which is required for the use of the corner connector for connecting bars.
  • the equal alignment of the crosspiece and the elongated hole with respect to their angle legs is therefore an optimization from which, if necessary, deviations can also be made, for example if an optimal connection security of the angle legs is to be achieved, for example if they enclose an acute or an obtuse angle.
  • the releasability of the angle legs is also advantageous in that, for example, one angle leg of predetermined dimensions can be combined with another angle leg of different predetermined dimensions. For example, one angle leg can be longer than the other angle leg.
  • One angle leg can also have different cross-sectional dimensions than the other angle leg.
  • An expedient design of the corner connector is present when the axle bolt has an approximately rectangular crossbar that is almost as wide as its round cross section, and that the elongated hole is of a correspondingly rectangular shape and is provided with a circular cross section that rotatably supports the round axle bolt.
  • the crossbar then has maximum width dimensions. On the other hand, it ensures that an angle leg is mounted relatively immovably on the other angle leg.
  • the corner connector it is advantageous to design the corner connector so that the crossbar and the elongated hole are each aligned in the longitudinal direction of the angle leg.
  • the optimal connection strength of the angled legs it is achieved that they can be made as narrow as possible, because the longitudinal extent of the transverse web and the elongated hole coincides with the longitudinal direction of the angled leg and consequently does not widen it transversely.
  • a very advantageous embodiment of the corner connector is that the two angle legs each have an axle bolt at one leg end and an elongated hole at the other end.
  • the angle legs can be constructed identically. It is therefore not necessary to produce several differently shaped angle legs in order to use them to build a single corner connector.
  • the corner connector is advantageously designed in such a way that the angle leg has a plate-like first leg piece which carries the axle pin, with which a second plate-like leg piece is integrally connected, which is arranged offset in parallel at the height of the axle pin.
  • the plate-like leg pieces thus overlap in the connection area and it is readily possible to design the thickness of the second plate-like leg piece at least in the region of its elongated hole in such a way that the desired connection can be made with the axle bolt of the first plate-like leg piece of another angle leg.
  • the first plate-like leg piece with its axle pin determines the overall width or - thickness of the corner connector in this area or the entire corner connector, if this is taken into account in the remaining training.
  • the corner connector it is possible to design the corner connector so that the first leg piece of an angle leg is of different thickness with respect to the second leg piece. With the same design of the two angle legs, it can then be achieved that the corner connector can be used for spars with the same cross-section, which have differently dimensioned hollow chambers transverse to the angle plane, into which the angle legs are inserted. However, it is also possible to combine angle legs, in which the thicknesses of the second leg pieces of the angle pieces are different, if this is required in exceptional cases by correspondingly different cross-sectional dimensions of the two adjoining hollow chambers of the spars.
  • the corner connector can be designed such that in the connection area of both Leg pieces a support web is present, the outer surface of which is flush with the outer surface of the crossbar.
  • a support web is present, the outer surface of which is flush with the outer surface of the crossbar.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the corner connector consists in the fact that the first leg piece in the connection area of the two leg pieces, opposite the support web, has an end edge arranged at an angle to the longitudinal direction of the angle leg.
  • the end edge arranged at an angle to the longitudinal direction of the angle leg means a corresponding projection of a leg piece and thus a corresponding stiffening or massaging of the angle piece in the connection area of its two leg pieces.
  • the end edge arranged at an angle to the longitudinal direction of the angle leg does not interfere if one angle leg is arranged at an acute angle relative to the other angle leg, the distance between the end edge and the pivoting range of the two angle legs being designed such that their pivoting from one acute-angled position in an obtuse-angled position is not hindered.
  • the end portions of the longitudinal edges of the angle legs are rounded approximately eighth-circle.
  • the eighth-circle rounding of the end sections of the longitudinal edges of the angle legs makes it possible to arrange the above-described end edge of a leg piece as close as possible to the common swivel range of the angle legs.
  • the said rounding also ensures that the angle legs can be inserted more easily into the ends of the spars, i.e. without the exact alignment that would be required if the longitudinal edges of the angle legs and the end transverse edge would meet at right angles, because then the rectangular corners formed can hinder the effortless insertion.
  • the corner connector can also be designed such that the angle legs are provided at their ends with their longitudinal edges parallel openings.
  • the openings save material and cause a suspension behavior of the adjacent longitudinal edge sections, so that the insertion of the angle legs in the spars and the clamping fit of the angle legs in the spars can be improved with a corresponding shape of the angle legs.
  • the frame spars 11 shown in FIG. 1 are mitered and abut each other at right angles in the region of their miter edges 29.
  • the frame spars 11 are multi-chamber profiles, the cross section of which each has a chamber 40 on the inside of the corner, into which an angle leg 12 or 13 of a corner connector 10 is inserted.
  • the width 41 of the angle legs 12, 13 is of the same size and corresponds approximately to the distance between the inner walls 42 of the hollow chamber 40.
  • the width 41 is dimensioned somewhat larger if the angle leg 12, 13 is to be stuck in the hollow chamber 40 in a clamping manner.
  • the corner bracket 12, 13 can also be glued in.
  • an angle leg which consists of two leg pieces 21,22. Both leg pieces 21, 22 are plate-shaped, the plate thickness obviously being different.
  • a transversely projecting supporting web 23 with an outer surface 24 is provided on the leg piece 22.
  • an end edge 26 is provided on the leg piece 21, with which an end face 43 of the leg piece 21 arranged perpendicular to the leg piece 22 is formed.
  • the leg piece 21 has an axle pin 16 which projects perpendicular to the angular plane of the corner connector or to the main plane of the leg piece 21.
  • the axle pin 16 is round in cross section and arranged on the longitudinal axis of the leg piece 21.
  • a transverse web 17 is arranged, which extends in the longitudinal direction of the angle leg.
  • the outer surface of the axle pin 16 or of the cross piece 17 is aligned with the outer surface 24 of the support piece 23. From the upper part of FIG. 2 it can be seen that the width of the cross piece 17 is almost as large as the diameter of the axle piece 16.
  • the leg piece 22 there is an elongated hole 18 which extends in the longitudinal direction of the leg piece or the angle leg. It is somewhat wider than the crossbar 17, so that such a crossbar 17 can be inserted through the slot 18.
  • the elongated hole 18 is provided in its central region with a radius 44 on each longitudinal edge of the elongated hole 18, which is slightly larger than the diameter of the axle pin 16, so that it can be pivoted in the elongated hole 18 by means of these radii 44 after the Cross bar 17 was inserted through the slot 18.
  • the push-through position of the crosspiece 17 through the elongated hole 18 can be seen from FIG. So that the two angle legs 12, 13 cannot be separated again easily by pulling them apart transversely to their side surfaces or in the direction of the axle pin 16, they must be pivoted relative to one another, whereby they can be stiff so that one selected Swiveling position is maintained when handling.
  • the crosspieces 17 overlap the edge regions of the leg piece 21 which form the elongated hole 18.
  • the bayonet-like coverage of these edge regions by the crosspiece 17 is maximum in the selected arrangement of the crosspiece 17 and the elongated hole 18, that is to say with the largest overlap area when the angle legs 12 , 13 are arranged at right angles to each other.
  • FIGS. 1 and 4c This relative angular position of the angle legs 12, 13 is shown in FIGS. 1 and 4c.
  • 4a and 4b show the angle legs 12, 13 in the range of obtuse angles of 110 degrees and 140 degrees. It can be seen that the overlap between the transverse webs 17 of the angle leg 12 and the underlying surfaces of the angle leg 13 decreases with increasing angle, but without thereby jeopardizing the connection security. The overlap decreases to the same extent if the angle between the angle legs 12, 13 is reduced, for example according to FIG. 4d. Here an acute angle of 70 degrees is shown. It can be seen that the corner connector can be used in all practically important angular positions of its angle legs.
  • Openings 28 are arranged on both sides of the elongated hole 18 and the axle pin 16 in the plate surfaces of the plate-like leg pieces 21, which serve to save material and make the plate areas between the longitudinal edges 27 and the openings 28 flexible, so that they can deflect into the hollow chambers 40. This is particularly important for the free ends of the corner connector, which is mainly responsible for the clamp seat when the corner connector is fastened.
  • leg thickness of the first leg piece 21 is greater than the leg thickness of the second leg piece 22.
  • leg thickness of the leg piece 21 of Figure 3 As a result, it can be seen that by different dimensioning of the thickness of the first leg piece 21 different corner connectors can be formed in such a way that the corner connectors can be used with hollow chambers 40 of spars 11 with different dimensions, i.e. with different dimensions of the hollow chambers 40 perpendicular to the plane of representation of FIG Fig. 1.
  • the outer surfaces of the leg pieces 21 and the outer surfaces 25 of the transverse webs 17 together with the outer surfaces 24 of the support webs 23 can also ensure a firm fit of the corner connector in the spars 11 transversely to the plane of illustration of FIG. 1, for example that created by the protrusion of the support webs 23 and the cross webs 17
  • Free space 44 between the leg piece 22 and the adjacent wall of a spar 11 could be used to hold adhesive, if this is conducive to supporting the tight fit of the angle legs 12, 13 in the spars 11.
  • Form-fitting connections can also be made between an angle leg 12, 13 and the associated frame spar 11 in order to prevent the corner connector or angle leg 12, 13 from slipping out of the frame spar 11.
  • FIG. 1 shows, for example, a recess 45 on a longitudinal edge 27 of the angled leg 13 at a single point.
  • This recess 45 serves to receive a notch 46 of the inner wall 42 of the frame spar 11.
  • the notch occurs after inserting the angled leg 13 into the frame spar 11 and can be designed so that there is a fixed positive connection in which the abutting surfaces or miter edges 29 of the frame spars 11 are pressed against each other when there are 11 positive connections in both frame spars.
  • the notch 46 expediently points in the direction of the free end of the angled leg 13. Instead of the notch 46, a bead or the like can also be used for the positive connection of the angled leg 13 to the frame spar 11. be used.
  • the end edge 26 is arranged obliquely to the longitudinal direction of the angle leg 12 or 13, in such a way that the desired maximum acute-angled position of the angle leg 13 relative to the angle leg 12 is taken into account.
  • this preferred angular position in FIG. 4d 70 angular degree, the end face 43 of the end edge 26 or this itself lies parallel to the adjacent longitudinal edge 27 of the angled leg 13.
