Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector for hollow profiles of spacer frames for insulating glass panes with the features in the preamble of claim 1 and a hollow profile and a spacer frame with a connector.
  • Such a connector is known from EP-A-0 283 689 and DE-A-3 408 600. It is made as a U-shaped stamped and bent part from sheet steel and has several resilient retaining elements for a tight fit and tolerance compensation in the hollow profiles.
  • Another connector is known from DE-U-90 10 884, which is fixed in the hollow profiles by positive connections. Rivets, caulking of the hollow profile wall or other retaining elements are used for this purpose, which engage in a form-fitting manner in the central web openings of the connector.
  • DE-A-3 808 907 shows a connector for spacers of ventilated insulating glass panes.
  • the hollow spacer profiles have several hollow chambers, which are connected to one another in an alternately communicating manner via mutually isolated connecting channels in the connector. This forms a circumferential ventilation duct and a drying chamber at the same time, the ventilation duct circumnavigating the interior of the pane four times between an air inlet opening on the top of the connector and an air outlet opening on the underside of the connector.
  • the connecting channels have a closed circumference and a sinuous shape.
  • the connector according to the invention has, at least in the area of the connection point of the hollow profiles, a base plate which bridges the connection point and is shorter than the connector.
  • the plug connector has an essentially closed wall in the area of the connection point.
  • the desiccant which may be inside the connector, is prevented from exiting by the base plate due to the gap which arises due to tolerance problems at the connection point.
  • the base plate also deposits the gap, so that it is not visually noticeable.
  • the connector according to the invention does not necessarily take up the manufacturing tolerances of the hollow profiles better, but it significantly reduces their consequences.
  • the connector does not have to be firmly inserted into the hollow profiles. Contrary to earlier efforts in the prior art, a gap may also arise at the connection point of the hollow profiles. The gap has no negative consequences due to the base plate.
  • the connector is adapted in cross section to the hollow profile shape and has resilient retaining elements on the central web and on the side webs.
  • the resilient retaining elements also ensure tolerance compensation.
  • a positive connection between the plug connector and the hollow profiles can be achieved by caulking or other connection or. Restraint elements are created.
  • the combination of resilient retaining elements in the form of bending lugs and receiving openings for caulking or the like provides a particularly favorable and multifunctional embodiment.
  • the bending lugs are pressed in and the receiving openings are exposed.
  • the connector can thereby both by means of wall deformations in the hollow profiles be positively fixed. Alternatively, it can also only be inserted and held by frictional engagement of the bending lugs.
  • the bending lugs also ensure that the connector is held better in the hollow profiles than in the prior art until the wall deformations are introduced.
  • the bending lugs deform partly plastically, partly elastically and cause additional tension between the wall deformation and the receiving opening in the connector.
  • the bending lugs preferably have essentially the same shape as the receiving openings. It is advisable to give the bending lugs and possibly also the receiving openings wedge-shaped side edges that widen towards the center of the connector. Due to the wedge shape, particularly good tension between the wall deformations and the connector can be achieved.
  • the bending lugs have a substantially trapezoidal shape. They are narrower at the bending point and at the transition into the connector than at the front edge.
  • the central web of the connector faces the outside of the frame and, if necessary, also bears against the roof of the hollow profiles.
  • the base plate is then located on the inside of the frame and prevents the drying agent from escaping at the junction point at risk.
  • the plug connector In the areas adjoining the base plate, the plug connector has its normal U cross-sectional shape which is open on one side and which makes contact of the drying agent with the hollow profile wall, preferably at the Frame inside, allowed.
  • the drying agent is otherwise effective over the entire connector length, except in the narrow base plate area.
  • one or more stops are provided. These are preferably designed as resilient stop lugs which disappear into the interior after the hollow profiles have been attached.
  • FIG. 1 to 4 show a connector (1) for hollow profiles (9) of spacer frames for insulating glass panes.
  • the hollow profiles (9) are filled with a drying agent (14), which is perforated, Slots or the like on the inside of the frame (15) communicates with the gas between the insulating glass panes (not shown) and keeps the gas dry.
  • the hollow profiles (9) can be made in different ways. They consist, for example, of extruded light metal profiles, rolled or rolled steel or light metal profiles or the like. Depending on the type of manufacture, the same external dimensions of the hollow profiles (9) have different tolerances for the internal size.

  • the base plate (6) preferably has a width of approximately 5 to 10 mm. But it can also be wider or narrower.
  • the base plate (6) consists of one or two bending tabs (7) which start from the side webs (3) and are bent horizontally. In the preferred embodiment there are two bending tabs (7) which abut each other in the middle. Alternatively, however, it can also be a single bending tab (7), which is connected only to one side web (3) and butts against the opposite side web (3).
  • the connector (1) can also be designed in a different way. For example, as a plastic profile, the base plate (6) being molded in one piece, in particular molded on. Depending on the design and design of the connector (1), there are other manufacturing options for the base plate (6).

  • a stop (5) on the central web (2) is recommended for the preferred embodiment with the bent flap (7).
  • the connector (1) can have open end faces (13) through which the drying agent (14) from the hollow profiles (9) can enter and flow through the cavity (12) of the connector (1).
  • the connector (1) can also have closed end faces that prevent the access of desiccant.
  • the base plate (6) then serves as a cover for the gap (8). For this purpose, it is recommended to design the connector (1) in the same color as the hollow profiles (9).
  • the base plate (6) also seals the connection point (4) at least partially against the signs of fusion. It also ensures that the connector (1) can be gripped and handled more easily.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show a variant of the plug connector (1) from FIGS. 1 to 4.
  • the plug connector (1) has two openings (17) on the central web (2) on both sides of the center, which preferably have an essentially triangular shape.

  • the connecting element (18) can consist, for example, of a rivet, caulking or deformation of the hollow profile wall or the like.
  • the triangular shape of the receiving openings (17) is selected so that on both connector halves the triangles each point with the base to the center of the connector (1) and with their tip to the adjacent end face. When caulking the hollow profile wall takes place through the triangular shape a clamping effect takes place, which pulls the connector (1) into the hollow profiles (9) and closes the hollow profiles (9) at the connection point (4) as tightly as possible.

  • the wedge shape exerts a clamping force acting in the insertion direction (27) from the wall deformation (25), which pulls the connector (1) into the hollow profile (9). If necessary, the clamping force is supported on the stop (5), which presses against the end wall of the pushed-on hollow profile (9).
