Definitions

  • the invention relates to a glass edge holder in the form of a glass holding profile which surrounds the edge of a glazing, in particular a multi-pane insulating glazing on windows, doors or facades on the weather side with a glass holding stop and which is essentially L-shaped or U-shaped in the area of the glazing. or door frame or a facade construction is detachably connected.
  • Such glass edge mounts are known from practice.
  • a disadvantage of the known glass edge mounts is that they can usually only be used on step insulating glass panes or do not have the required drainage and vapor pressure compensation channel.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a glass edge bracket of the type mentioned, through which on the one hand the use of stepped glass can be dispensed with and which on the other hand ensures drainage and vapor pressure compensation.
  • the glass holding profile consists of a plastic of high strength and low thermal conductivity
  • the surface facing the end of the glazing is provided approximately in the center with a recess which forms a drainage channel running in the plane of the glazing, for the rest the end face rests largely flush
  • the glass holding profile has a connection profile at its end facing away from the glass holding stop, which is in a form-fitting connection with the window or door frame or the facade construction.
  • the advantage achieved by the invention consists essentially in that the insulating layer is drawn onto the weather-side outer front by the glass holding profile made of plastic.
  • the adjoining glazing elements close to each other, which means that there are hardly any interfering spaces in an all-glass facade.
  • connection profile can advantageously be oriented substantially perpendicular to the plane of the glazing.
  • the drainage channel has a minimal cross section that is optimized in terms of flow technology.
  • the drainage channel can advantageously have an edge contour of approximately trapezoidal, arc-shaped, oval or transitional forms, resulting in only a slight weakening of the glass holding profile.
  • the glass holding profile has a projection on the side facing away from the drainage channel, which roughly follows the contour of the drainage channel, thereby compensating for the weakening of the glass holding profile which occurs through the drainage channel.
  • the glass holding profile is expediently provided with drainage holes in the area of the drainage channel.
  • connection profile has a cross-sectional widening with which the glass holding profile engages in a form-fitting manner on the window or door frame or the facade construction.
  • the connection profile can be concave in cross-section on the side facing away from the glazing and flat on the opposite side, the free edge of the connection profile forming the cross-sectional expansion. This contour also facilitates the assembly of the glass holding profile, which is pivoted by the concave design when inserted. This also creates a contact pressure on the glazing from the glass stop.
  • the connecting profile is formed by two spaced-apart, parallel bars that receive a projecting profile rail of the window or door frame or the facade construction between them.
  • the mutually facing surfaces of the strips and / or the profile rail can advantageously have a toothing that prevents them from coming apart automatically.
  • connection profile lying against the connection profile can be additionally provided, which is detachably or permanently connected to the window or door frame or the facade construction and screwed to the connection profile.
  • the screw does not take any load, but only ensures the positive connection.
  • the glass holding profile is provided with a steel sheet, in particular a stainless steel sheet insert.
  • this steel sheet insert provides reinforcement to the glass holding profile and on the other hand serves as a fire protection measure insofar as the glazing is still held by the steel sheet insert when the plastic has already been destroyed.
  • the steel sheet insert is perforated, so that the halves of the glass holding profile separated from one another by the steel sheet insert are intimate through the perforation Connect with each other.
  • the steel sheet insert can extend as an endless profile through the entire length of the glass holding profile or can be formed only as short sections, so that, for example, two short steel sheet inserts are provided in the horizontally running, upper and lower glass holding profiles in a glazing element.
  • the glass holding profile can also have an undercut receiving groove for a sealing profile on its edge adjacent to the glass holding stop, said groove resting against a corresponding sealing profile of the adjacent glass holding stop and thus ensuring a seal in the area of the outer front.
  • the glass holding profile can consist of different types of plastic materials, provided that they are sufficiently strong. In this sense it has proven to be advantageous if the glass holding profile consists of glass fiber reinforced polyamide.
  • the glass holding stop is formed by the steel sheet insert protruding from the glass holding profile.
  • the area of the steel sheet insert that forms the glass stop can be double-layered by folding inwards or outwards.
  • an insert strip of low hardness is arranged between the lower edge of the glazing and the glass holding profile, which is located along the entire edge or only in those adjacent to the glazing corners Extends marginal areas.
  • the exemplary embodiments shown in the drawing show glass edge mounts in the form of a glass holding profile 1, which grip the edge of the glazing 2, in particular a multi-pane insulating glazing, with a glass holding stop 3 on the weather side.
  • This glass edge bracket can be used for windows, doors and facades.
  • the glass holding profile 1 is essentially L-shaped or U-shaped in the area of the glazing 2 and is attached to an element of a window or Door frame 4 or a facade construction 5 detachably connected.
  • the glass holding profile 1 consists of a plastic of high strength and low thermal conductivity. Furthermore, the glass holding profile 1 of the end face of the glazing 2 lies essentially flush over its entire width. At its end facing away from the glass holding stop 3 and forming a connection profile 6, the glass holding profile 1 is in a form-fitting connection with the window or door frame 4 or the facade construction 5.
  • the glass holding profile 1 has on its side facing the end face of the glazing 2 a drainage channel 7 running in the plane of the glazing 2.
  • the shape of this drainage channel 7 is expediently such that it leads to the least possible weakening of the glass holding profile 1. It is therefore advantageous to have an approximately circular arc-shaped or oval edge contour in cross section.
  • a rib-shaped projection 8 is provided in the exemplary embodiments in FIGS. 1 and 2 on the side facing away from the drainage channel 7.
  • the glass holding profile 1 is provided with drainage holes 9 in the area of the drainage channel 7.
  • connection profile 6 has a possibly only very weak cross-sectional widening with which the glass holding profile 1 engages in a form-fitting manner on the window or door frame 4 or the facade construction 5.
  • the connection profile 6 is concave in cross section on the side facing away from the glazing 2 and flat on the opposite side.
  • the free edge of the connection profile 6 widens slightly, which thus also forms the cross-sectional expansion.
  • the glass holding profile 1 carries out a slight pivoting movement in the direction of the glazing 2 during its assembly, which at the same time generates a certain contact pressure of the glass holding stop 8 on the glazing 2.
  • connection profile 6 is formed by two spaced-apart, parallel bars 10, which receive between them a profile rail 11 which protrudes from the facade construction 5.
  • the mutually facing surfaces of the strips 10 and / or the profile rail 11 can have a toothing not shown in the drawing.
  • a pressure profile 12 which is adjacent to the connection profile 6, is provided, which is firmly connected in FIG. 1 and detachably connected to the facade construction 5 in FIG. 2. Furthermore, this pressure profile 12 is screwed to the connection profile 6, the screw connection being only the Securing the positive connection serves.
  • a steel sheet insert 13 can be introduced into the glass holding profile 1, as is indicated by dashed lines in FIGS. 1 to 3.
  • This steel sheet insert 13, which - also for heat conduction reasons - in particular made of stainless steel, is expediently provided with a perforation through which the plastic areas located on both sides of the steel sheet insert 13 are connected to one another and thus ensure a higher strength.
  • This steel sheet insert 13 serves on the one hand as reinforcement to promote rigidity and on the other hand as a supplementary fire protection measure.
  • the glass holding profile 1 is also provided on its edge adjacent to the glass holding stop 3 with an undercut receiving groove 14 for a sealing profile 15, which serves to seal against an adjacent glazing unit 2.
  • the glass holding profile 1 itself can consist of different types of plastics, provided that they have sufficient strength. It is favorable to provide glass fiber reinforced polyamide for this.
  • the glass holding profile 1 is inserted on a window frame 4.
  • the glass holding profile 1 sits in a form-fitting manner in the frame 4, but additionally has a projection 16 which, when the window is closed, bears against a sealing lip 17 projecting from the frame.
  • the glass holding stop (3) can also be formed by the steel sheet insert (13) protruding from the glass holding profile (1).
  • the area of the steel sheet insert (13) forming the glass stop (3) can be double-layered by folding inwards or outwards.
  • an insert strip 18 of low hardness can be arranged between the lower edge of the glazing 2 and the glass holding profile 1, which extends along the entire edge or only in the edge regions adjacent to the glazing corners.
  • the insert strip 18 can for example consist of EPDM.
