Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a window screening device, particularly for a skylight or a similar permanent or temporary oblique window, comprising a screening element, particularly of pleated material, fastened between a top casing firmly attached to a top member of the window sash and a slidable bottom beam as well as guidance means, comprising a cord arrangement with guidance cords, which are individually routed from the top casing through one of at least two rows of openings in the screening element and further through the bottom beam and a side guide strip for the screening element to one end of a bottom member of the window sash and from there back to the top casing, each guidance cord being connected in the top casing with one end of a tension spring the other end of which is fastened to a stationary point in the top casing.
- A window screening device of this kind is known from EP patent No. 015 043. The purpose of the cord arrangement is to ensure parallelism between the top casing and the bottom beam when the screening element is parked in different positions in the window opening and to the extent possible also to ensure parallel guiding during operation of the screening element, which is performed using a handle placed in the middle of the bottom beam.
- By attempting to pull the bottom beam by one of its ends near a side guide, the bottom beam will, however, be pulled askew, as the spring-loaded cord control in the opposite end of the bottom beam, as a result of friction at the positions where the cord changes direction, prevents the bottom beam from moving and so to speak locks the concerned end of the bottom beam.
- For counter-acting such locking at skew load on the bottom beam, the application of sufficiently tight springs could be considered, which at skew load will make the cord tension of the cord control at the opposite side almost momentarily constant, even though the bottom beam is affected by a tug in one end. Such solution has, however, turned out to be accompanied by unacceptable wear and tear of cords and cord routings, which normally consist of plastic bushes, or by a friction at bush routings and other places where a cord changes direction which is so high that the operating comfort is considerably reduced.
- According to the invention, these disadvantages are avoided in a simple way in that two cord pieces in each side of the screening element are routed through the same or different rows of openings to the top casing, in which free ends of each cord piece are joined in a slidable or flowing junction, one of said free ends being connected with said one end of the tension spring, each cord piece being routed, from its respective row of openings in one side of the screening element through the bottom beam and the side guide strip in the opposite side of the window to the end of said sash bottom member situated at this side, and from there back through the same side guide strip, the bottom beam, and a row of openings in said one side of the screening element to the slidable or flowing junction in the opposite side of the top casing, a stopping device being provided in each side of the top casing in connection with the tension spring for limiting the travelling of the spring.
- The limitation of the travelling of the tension spring by means of said stop and the slidable or flowing junction of the cord ends in each side of the top casing results in that the bottom beam can be permitted a considerable deviation at one-sided skew load from its normal position parallel to the top casing, without locking occurring.
- Hereby the invention provides the possibility of using an operating handle extending the entire width of the bottom beam.
- Compared to the design in accordance with above mentioned EP patent, the invention furthermore has the advantage that mounting of the guidance cord arrangement does not require intervention in the sash bottom member, which to a considerable extent eases after-mounting.
- The invention will now be explained in detail with reference to the drawing, in which
- fig. 1 shows a skylight with a window screening device in the form of a folding blind and
- fig. 2 a guidance cord arrangement in an embodiment of the window screening device according to the invention.
- In figure 1 is shown a skylight of by it self conventional type having a window sash comprising at top member 1 and a
bottom member 2 as well as twoside members 3 and 4. The sash top member 1 is in a known manner, not shown, provided with closure fittings for the window, which is operated by means of anoperating handle 5 extending the entire width of the window, which operating handle is fastened to apivotable flap 6, covering a ventilation opening formed in the sash top member 1 for providing ventilation in the closed position of the window. - For blinding, the window is provided with a window screening device according to the invention, in the example shown a folding blind with a blind element of pleated material. The
blind element 7 is mounted between atop casing 8, which is firmly connected to the sash top member 1, and abottom beam 9, which can be brought up and down in the window opening for blinding or screening of a large or small part thereof. - In the embodiment shown the folding blind 7 is adapted to manual hoisting and lowering by means of an
operating handle 10 fastened to thebottom beam 9, which operating handle, like theoperating handle 5, extends substantially the entire width of the window. - The hoisting and lowering can be carried out by means of a cord control, not shown, which in a known way can be performed in such a way that the
bottom beam 9 can be parked in any intermediate position between a fully hoisted position of the blind 7, thebottom beam 9 being placed immediately below thetop casing 8, and a completely drawn position, thebottom beam 9 coming into contact with thesash bottom member 2. - Likewise, the blind 7 can in a manner known per se be adapted to motorized operation instead of manual operation.
- To ensure parallelism between the
top casing 8 and thebottom beam 9 at arbitrary positions of the bottom beam as well as, to the extent possible, to ensure parallel guiding of the bottom beam during hoisting or lowering, the window screening device according to the invention is provided with a guidance cord arrangement with a number of guidance cords, of which figure 1 shows four cords which are routed through rows of openings provided in the individual folds of the pleated material in theblind element 7. - The detailed construction of the guidance cord arrangement will be explained in the following.
- Figure 2 shows the window screening device according to the invention in a fully hoisted position, the folding
blind element 7 being completely folded and thebottom beam 9 being placed close to thetop casing 8. - The guidance cord arrangement comprises two pieces of cord, which in the example shown - with a relatively wide window, where four rows of openings are provided in the
blind element 7, said rows of openings being placed symmetrically around a vertical central axis in the blind element - are routed through their respective row of openings in both sides of theblind element 7. - In this way, the fully pulled up
guidance cord 11, starting from the top casing, is routed through the outermost right row ofopenings 13 of theblind element 7 and from there through thebottom beam 9 to the opposite left side thereof, from where it is routed hidden in a side guide strip fastened to the sash side member 3 - see fig. 1 - to ajunction 15 with thesash bottom member 2 in the left side thereof. - The
cord piece 11 is from there routed back through the same side guide strip 14 and thebottom beam 9 and up through the row ofopenings 19 in the blind 7. - The
other cord piece 12, shown by a thin line, is routed from thetop casing 8 through the innermost row ofopenings 18 in the left side of theblind element 7 and thebottom beam 9 to a junction 17 on thesash bottom member 2 in the right side and back through the bottom beam to the outermost row ofopenings 20 in the left side of theblind element 7. - In the
top casing 8 each of thecord pieces tension spring - According to the invention, the special features of the guidance cord arrangement are that for each of the
tension springs top casing 8 there is astopping device cord pieces top casing 8 are joined in a freely slidable or flowingjunction - In the embodiment shown, the two
tension springs joint spring holder 27, which is fastened approximately in the middle of thetop casing 8 and is provided with end portions forming saidstopping devices - In the bottom of the
top casing 8, opposite the rows ofopenings 13 and 18-20 of theblind element 7, cord routing bushes are fastened, which together with thestopping devices junction cord pieces - At a skew action on the
operating handle 10, e.g. in the very right side of this, the part of thecord piece 11 situated in the top casing, which cord is routed through the rows of openings in the side in question of theblind element 7, will perform a tension of the spring as a consequence of the friction between thecord piece 11 and the cord routing bushes for the rows ofopenings tension spring 22 comes into contact with thestopping device 24. - At a similar action at hoisting from a parked intermediate position of the
bottom beam 9, a similar effect will take place in the opposite side of the top casing. - This travelling of one of the tension springs until it comes into contact with one of the stopping devices will, in itself, be decisive for how much the
bottom beam 9 can be affected askew from the position parallel to thetop casing 8 before it locks. - This locking at skew action on the
operating handle 10 will, however, only affect the part of thecord piece top casing 8, depending on whether lowering or hoisting is in question, and by appropriate dimensioning the locking will not cause blocking of the opposite side of theblind element 7. - The connection between the
cord pieces tension springs - Although in the above the invention is described and explained referring to a folding blind as a screening element, it can be used also in connection with other types of a window screening devices, particularly venetian blinds.
- Also other modifications are possible compared to the embodiment shown and described. As an example, the screening element, e.g. for a narrow window, can be provided with only two rows of openings instead of four. The two guidance cords are thereby routed through the same row of openings in each side of the screening element.
