Abstract

The double glazed window (3) comprises a support frame (1) for the two parallel panes (4,5) which delimit between them an intermediate space (6) containing an air gap. This space communicates with the outside atmosphere through an opening (13) in the frame. A filter (16) in the opening prevents dust and particles penetrating into the air gap. A parallelepiped elastomer caisson (17), having acoustic absorption properties, is mounted in the air gap against the frame to cover the opening on top of the filter. This caisson has a cut out (22) for the evacuation of air in the intermediate space. Inside the caisson are several partitions (28) forming a chicane for the circulation of air from the outside to the inside of the intermediate space.

Description

La présente invention est relative à un dispositif d'assourdissement sonore pour un vitrage isolant du type dit "respirant", comportant de façon en elle-même connue dans la technique au moins deux vitres parallèles, montées de préférence dans un châssis commun et séparées par un espace contenant une lame d'air intermédiaire, dont l'avantage essentiel est d'accroître considérablement l'isolement thermique créé entre l'extérieur et l'intérieur du local ou analogue fermé par le vitrage.The present invention relates to a sound silencing device for insulating glazing of the so-called "breathable" type, comprising in itself known in the art at least two parallel panes, preferably mounted in a common frame and separated by a space containing an intermediate air space, the essential advantage of which is to considerably increase the thermal insulation created between the outside and the inside of the room or the like closed by the glazing.

Dans ce type de vitrage isolant, il est évidemment indispensable de prévoir des moyens pour éviter la pénétration de poussières dans l'espace qui sépare les deux vitres contenant la lame d'air intermédiaire, et surtout pour empêcher l'embuage de la surface des vitres dans cet espace, ce qui a été envisagé en rendant ce dernier hermétiquement clos et en le garnissant d'une lame d'air très sec, en vue d'éliminer la condensation possible lorsque l'atmosphère extérieure au vitrage est particulièrement froide, en créant une différence de température sensible avec l'intérieur.In this type of insulating glazing, it is obviously essential to provide means to prevent the penetration of dust into the space which separates the two panes containing the intermediate air space, and above all to prevent fogging of the surface of the panes in this space, which has been envisaged by making the latter hermetically sealed and by filling it with a layer of very dry air, in order to eliminate the possible condensation when the atmosphere outside the glazing is particularly cold, by creating a significant temperature difference with the interior.

Toutefois, la solution d'un espace totalement étanche s'est rapidement révélée insuffisante, du fait notamment des contraintes imposées au vitrage lors de son utilisation, dues aux variations de la pression atmosphérique, aux changements de température, à la différence de pression entre la lame d'air et les ambiances de part et d'autre du vitrage, à l'effet du vieillissement des matériaux qui réalisent l'étanchéité (joints en élastomère ou en caoutchouc, colle de scellement...), aux déformations du châssis sous les effets du vent et aux actions mécaniques qui sont nécessairement imposées lors du montage et/ou de la mise en oeuvre du vitrage.However, the solution of a completely sealed space quickly proved to be insufficient, in particular due to the constraints imposed on the glazing during its use, due to variations in atmospheric pressure, changes in temperature, the pressure difference between the air space and the atmospheres on both sides of the glazing, to the effect of the aging of the materials which make the seal (elastomer or rubber seals, sealing glue ...), to the deformations of the frame under the effects of wind and the mechanical actions which are necessarily imposed during the mounting and / or implementation of the glazing.

Pour pallier le plus largement possible ces inconvénients, la technique consiste à rendre la lame d'air, non pas étanche et confinée dans un espace totalement clos, mais en organisant un échange gazeux et un équilibrage de pression à travers cet espace, dans des conditions contrôlées.To overcome these drawbacks as widely as possible, the technique consists in making the air space, not sealed and confined in a completely closed space, but by organizing a gas exchange and a pressure balancing through this space, under conditions controlled.

Dans ce but, le châssis portant les deux vitres parallèles comprend au moins une ouverture débouchant dans l'espace intermédiaire entre ces vitres et permettant à un écoulement d'air de s'établir, qui balaye les faces en regard des vitres en évitant une condensation sur celles-ci et en réduisant en outre les risques de rupture du vitrage sous l'effet des variations de température et de pression.For this purpose, the frame carrying the two parallel panes comprises at least one opening opening into the intermediate space between these panes and allowing a flow air to settle, which sweeps the opposite faces of the panes, avoiding condensation thereon and further reducing the risk of the glazing breaking under the effect of temperature and pressure variations.

Avantageusement, l'ouverture de communication présente des dimensions relativement réduites pour éviter un renouvellement de l'air avec un débit élevé qui affecterait les performances d'isolation thermique du vitrage. Par ailleurs, pour empêcher les entrées de poussières ou autres corps étrangers, tels notamment que des insectes dans l'espace intermédiaire, il est usuel de prévoir, en travers de l'ouverture de communication, un filtre, de préférence réalisé sous la forme d'une toile ou d'un tampon d'un matériau polyamide ou autre, qui laisse passer l'air et la vapeur d'eau mais s'interpose sur le trajet de tout élément solide éventuel.Advantageously, the communication opening has relatively small dimensions to avoid renewal of the air with a high flow rate which would affect the thermal insulation performance of the glazing. Furthermore, to prevent the entry of dust or other foreign bodies, such as in particular insects into the intermediate space, it is customary to provide, across the communication opening, a filter, preferably made in the form of '' a canvas or pad of polyamide or other material, which lets air and water vapor through but interposes in the path of any solid element.

De préférence ce filtre est monté de façon amovible dans l'ouverture pour un remplacement périodique.Preferably this filter is removably mounted in the opening for periodic replacement.

Or, en même temps que cette solution favorise les échanges gazeux avec l'air extérieur, elle affaiblit l'isolation phonique normalement assurée par le double vitrage lorsque l'espace intermédiaire qu'il comporte est hermétiquement clos.However, at the same time as this solution promotes gas exchange with the outside air, it weakens the sound insulation normally provided by the double glazing when the intermediate space which it comprises is hermetically closed.

L'invention a pour but d'éviter cet inconvénient grâce à un vitrage isolant du type "respirant", c'est-à-dire dans lequel le châssis qui supporte les deux vitres parallèles présente au moins une ouverture de communication entre l'extérieur du vitrage et l'espace qui sépare ces vitres, pour lequel les performances acoustiques et phoniques sont largement améliorées.The object of the invention is to avoid this drawback thanks to an insulating glazing of the "breathable" type, that is to say in which the frame which supports the two parallel panes has at least one communication opening between the outside. glazing and the space separating these panes, for which the acoustic and phonic performances are greatly improved.

A cet effet, le dispositif considéré, adapté à un double vitrage isolant comportant un châssis de support pour deux vitres parallèles délimitant entre elles un espace intermédiaire contenant une lame d'air, cet espace étant mis en relation avec l'atmosphère extérieure par au moins une ouverture de communication prévue dans le châssis et dans laquelle est monté un filtre empêchant la pénétration dans l'espace de poussières ou autres corps solides, se caractérise en ce qu'il comporte, monté au droit de l'ouverture de communication, à l'intérieur de l'espace intermédiaire, un caisson parallélépipédique, appliqué contre le châssis en recouvrant l'ouverture par dessus le filtre, ce caisson comprenant au moins une découpe pour l'évacuation de l'air dans l'espace intermédiaire et une pluralité de cloisons délimitant dans le volume interne du caisson un trajet en chicane pour la circulation de l'air, de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur de cet espace intermédiaire.To this end, the device considered, suitable for insulating double glazing comprising a support frame for two parallel panes delimiting between them an intermediate space containing an air space, this space being connected to the external atmosphere by at least a communication opening provided in the frame and in which is mounted a filter preventing the penetration into the space of dust or other solid bodies, is characterized in that it comprises, mounted in line with the communication opening, at the inside the intermediate space, a parallelepiped box, applied against the frame, covering the opening over the filter, this box comprising at least one cutout for the evacuation of air in the intermediate space and a plurality of partitions delimiting in the internal volume of the box a baffled path for the circulation of air, from the outside towards the interior of this intermediate space.

Avantageusement, le caisson est réalisé en un matériau souple, notamment en élastomère ou tout autre matériau analogue présentant des propriétés absorbantes d'un point de vue acoustique, par moulage ou autre procédé approprié.Advantageously, the box is made of a flexible material, in particular of elastomer or any other similar material having absorbent properties from an acoustic point of view, by molding or other suitable method.

De préférence, le caisson comporte une pluralité de cloisons transversales, disposées en chicane et s'étendant perpendiculairement aux faces parallèles en regard de ce caisson.Preferably, the box comprises a plurality of transverse partitions, arranged in a baffle and extending perpendicular to the parallel faces opposite this box.

Le cas échéant et selon une caractéristique avantageuse, quoique déjà connue dans la technique, les parois des cloisons transversales, de même que les faces en regard du caisson, peuvent comporter des saillies en relief, notamment en forme de pointes de diamant, pour améliorer l'atténuation acoustique des bruits véhiculés par l'air en circulation dans l'espace intermédiaire.Where appropriate and according to an advantageous characteristic, although already known in the art, the walls of the transverse partitions, as well as the facing faces of the box, may include raised projections, in particular in the form of diamond points, to improve the acoustic attenuation of the noises conveyed by the air circulating in the intermediate space.

D'autres caractéristiques d'un dispositif d'assourdissement sonore établi conformément à l'invention, apparaîtront encore à travers la description qui suit d'un exemple de réalisation, donné à titre indicatif et non limitatif, en référence au dessin annexé sur lequel :

  • La Figure 1 est une vue en perspective partielle d'un châssis de fenêtre à double vitrage, muni du dispositif selon l'invention.
  • La Figure 2 est une vue en coupe transversale, à plus grande échelle, d'une partie du caisson entrant dans la réalisation de ce dispositif.
Other characteristics of a sound silencing device established in accordance with the invention will become more apparent from the following description of an exemplary embodiment, given by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the appended drawing in which:
  • Figure 1 is a partial perspective view of a double glazed window frame, provided with the device according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view, on a larger scale, of a part of the box used in the production of this device.

Sur la Figure 1, la référence 1 désigne dans son ensemble un châssis pour fenêtre ou analogue, comportant notamment un profilé métallique de support 2 et un double vitrage 3, constitué de deux vitres parallèles, respectivement 4 et 5, délimitant entre elles un espace 6 dans lequel s'établit une lame d'air.In Figure 1, the reference 1 designates as a whole a window frame or the like, comprising in particular a metal support profile 2 and a double glazing 3, consisting of two parallel panes, respectively 4 and 5, delimiting between them a space 6 in which an air gap is established.

De façon en elle-même bien connue dans la technique, la vitre 4 par exemple est maintenue entre un élément d'appui 7 appartenant au profilé 2 et une parclose extérieure 8, rapportée sur ce profilé, l'élément d'appui et la parclose étant munis de joints d'étanchéité, respectivement 9 et 10. La vitre 4 repose sur une cale de support 11 par l'intermédiaire d'un élément souple 12.In itself well known in the art, the window 4 for example is held between a support element 7 belonging to the profile 2 and an external glazing bead 8, attached to this profile, the support element and the glazing bead being provided with seals, respectively 9 and 10. The window pane 4 rests on a support wedge 11 by means of a flexible element 12.

Des dispositions similaires peuvent être mises en oeuvre pour le montage et le maintien de la seconde vitre 5, mais ne sont pas illustrées sur le dessin. En outre, il doit être entendu que ces dispositions ne sont données qu'à titre d'exemple et n'importent pas directement à l'invention.Similar arrangements can be made for mounting and maintaining the second window 5, but are not illustrated in the drawing. In addition, it should be understood that these provisions are given only by way of example and do not directly matter to the invention.

Afin de permettre la "respiration" de la lame d'air contenue dans l'espace intermédiaire 6 qui sépare les vitres 4 et 5, notamment pour autoriser avec l'extérieur un échange gazeux et un équilibrage de pression, le profilé 2 du châssis 1 comporte au moins une ouverture de communication 13, mettant en relation l'atmosphère extérieure avec l'espace 6, cette ouverture étant ici délimitée par deux parois parallèles 14 et 15 entre lesquelles est disposé un filtre, qui dans le cas considéré est représenté sous la forme d'un tampon d'un matériau dont la structure permet le passage de l'air et de la vapeur d'eau mais empêche celui de tout corps solide, notamment des poussières et des insectes.In order to allow the "breathing" of the air space contained in the intermediate space 6 which separates the panes 4 and 5, in particular to allow gas exchange and pressure balancing with the outside, the section 2 of the frame 1 comprises at least one communication opening 13, relating the external atmosphere to the space 6, this opening being here delimited by two parallel walls 14 and 15 between which is placed a filter, which in the case considered is represented under the form of a pad of a material whose structure allows the passage of air and water vapor but prevents that of any solid body, in particular dust and insects.

Bien entendu, le filtre utilisé pourrait présenter une structure différente, par exemple être constitué par une toile, notamment d'un matériau polyamide, formant tamis, avec une maille suffisamment étroite pour interdire l'introduction de toute salissure dans l'espace 6.Of course, the filter used could have a different structure, for example consisting of a canvas, in particular of a polyamide material, forming a screen, with a mesh sufficiently narrow to prevent the introduction of any dirt into the space 6.

Conformément à l'invention, on dispose, par le dessus de l'ouverture de communication 13 un caisson allongé 17, de forme parallélépipédique, réalisé de préférence par moulage d'un matériau élastomère ou analogue, dont la face inférieure 18 est ouverte et vient s'appliquer contre la paroi 19 du profilé 2 entre les vitres parallèles 4 et 5.In accordance with the invention, an elongated box 17, of parallelepiped shape, is arranged above the communication opening 13, preferably made by molding an elastomeric or similar material, the lower face 18 of which is open and comes apply against the wall 19 of the profile 2 between the parallel panes 4 and 5.

Dans ses faces d'extrémité, respectivement 20 et 21, le caisson comporte des découpes telles que 22, permettant l'évacuation de l'air vers l'intérieur de l'espace intermédiaire 6, dans lequel il peut ensuite librement circuler en évitant sa condensation sur les surfaces des vitres dirigées vers cet espace.In its end faces, respectively 20 and 21, the box has cutouts such as 22, allowing the evacuation of air towards the interior of the intermediate space 6, in which it can then circulate freely, avoiding its condensation on the surfaces of the panes directed towards this space.

Pour produire selon l'invention un assourdissement approprié du bruit véhiculé par l'air ainsi mis en circulation de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur de l'espace intermédiaire, le caisson 17 est subdivisé en une pluralité de chambres voisines et successives telles que 24 et 25, délimitées entre les parois latérales parallèles et en regard 26 et 27 du caisson et une série de cloisons transversales 28 (voir notamment la vue en coupe à plus grande échelle de la Figure 2), qui s'étendent perpendiculairement à ces parois et ménagent entre elles, à l'intérieur de chacune des chambres successives 24 et 25, un trajet en chicane permettant à l'air traversant le filtre 16 dans l'ouverture 13 et pénétrant sous le caisson 17, de subir de mutiples réflexions sur ces parois et cloisons avant de s'évacuer hors de ce caisson par les découpes 22 des faces d'extrémité 20 et 21.In order to produce according to the invention an appropriate deactivation of the noise conveyed by the air thus circulated from the outside to the inside of the intermediate space, the box 17 is subdivided into a plurality of adjacent and successive chambers such as 24 and 25, delimited between the parallel side walls and facing 26 and 27 of the box and a series of transverse partitions 28 (see in particular the sectional view on a larger scale of FIG. 2), which extend perpendicular to these walls and between them, inside each of the successive chambers 24 and 25, a baffled path allowing the air passing through the filter 16 in the opening 13 and penetrating under the box 17, to undergo multiple reflections on these walls and partitions before being evacuated from this box by the cutouts 22 of the end faces 20 and 21.

Avantageusement, les parois des cloisons 28, de même que les faces en regard 26 et 27 du caisson, peuvent comporter une multiplicité de saillies en pointes de diamant (non représentées), qui améliorent encore l'effet d'assourdissement du son, notamment comme envisagé dans la demande de brevet français antérieure n° 94 15426, déposée au nom de la Société demanderesse.Advantageously, the walls of the partitions 28, as well as the facing faces 26 and 27 of the box, may include a multiplicity of diamond-point projections (not shown), which further improve the sound-deadening effect, in particular as envisaged in the previous French patent application n ° 94 15426, filed in the name of the applicant Company.

On réalise ainsi un dispositif de conception très simple qui permet de conserver tous les avantages d'un vitrage respirant, avec circulation d'air dans l'espace qui sépare les deux vitres parallèles de ce vitrage, mais en supprimant l'inconvénient de ce type de réalisation qui conduit à une isolation phonique relativement médiocre. Avec le dispositif de l'invention, l'isolement obtenu est en tout point comparable à celui d'un vitrage comportant un espace intermédiaire clos et scellé.This produces a device of very simple design which allows to keep all the advantages of a breathable glazing, with air circulation in the space which separates the two parallel panes of this glazing, but eliminating the disadvantage of this type. which leads to relatively poor sound insulation. With the device of the invention, the insulation obtained is comparable in all respects to that of glazing comprising an enclosed and sealed intermediate space.

Bien entendu, il va de soi que l'invention ne se limite pas à l'exemple de réalisation plus spécialement décrit ci-dessus en référence au dessin annexé ; elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes. En particulier, le caisson et le filtre qu'il recouvre pourraient être constitués en une seule pièce et non séparément comme dans cet exemple.Of course, it goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the embodiment more specifically described above with reference to the accompanying drawing; on the contrary, it embraces all its variants. In particular, the box and the filter that it covers could be made in one piece and not separately as in this example.
