Definitions

  • These frames constitute, among other things, the door openers and windows.
  • the awning deck cannot be more as wide as the distance between two vertical glazing beads opposite, unless it is projecting from the frame.
  • the blind When the blind is of the so-called "pleated" type, it has vertical cords that pass through holes in the apron, near its margins, and these holes are all passages for through light, which is very annoying when we try to obscure daylight, for example example for a bedroom.
  • this invention applies to a blind whose apron is made up of several blades but only one of them they are guided by rod 6-18-41.
  • the apron 21 therefore has no blades capable of pivoting relative to each other, no more than bands separated by accordion folds and can be oriented from the vertical to horizontal.
  • the ends of the strips forming a pleated apron are placed in housings that are part of the building itself said from the window, so that one cannot, like the allows the present invention, to equip an existing window in removing the original glazing beads and replacing them with the hollow glazing beads of the invention, receiving a blind.
  • the present invention expressly relates to lateral guides in which the lateral margins of the deck itself extend to prevent the passage of light, even if the apron is formed of blades or strips having a width not negligible when they extend horizontally or obliquely.
  • the total thickness of the structure is reduced to the strict necessary, because the guides are provided in glazing beads which hold the glazing.
  • the present invention completely overcomes the disadvantages recalled above by guaranteeing light-tightness of the frame-blind assembly without reducing daylight.
  • the invention relates to a glazed frame, type comprising a rebate frame for at least one window held in the rebate by lateral glazing beads vertical and by horizontal transverse glazing beads located at the top and bottom of the chassis, characterized in that the lateral glazing beads, less, are hollow in order to present a housing in front receive the margins of an apron mounted mobile in front of the part window of the chassis between an erasing position in which it is picked up near one of the sides of the chassis, usually the upper horizontal side, and a position of deployment in which it fully covers said glazed part of the chassis.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic horizontal sectional view of a glazed frame according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a partial schematic elevational view of glazed frame of figure 1.
  • Figure 3 is a partial schematic view showing a variant embodiment of the invention.
  • FIGS 4 and 5 are two partial schematic views showing two variants of the invention concerning the form of glazing beads.
  • Figure 6 is a schematic elevational view of a chassis glazed according to the invention and showing the organization of cords with which a blind is operated, to lower it as if to raise it.
  • Figure 7 is a partial schematic view at a larger scale explaining this organization of the cords.
  • Figures 8 and 9 are two schematic sectional views of a glazed frame according to the invention, according to a mode of more elaborate embodiment than that of FIGS. 1 and 2, in the blind opening position and in the position closing.
  • Figures 10 and 11 are two partial schematic views illustrating a characteristic of the operating bar according to two variants.
  • FIG 12 is a schematic elevational view of a chassis glazing according to the invention, showing the possibility that gives the invention of making a glazed frame provided with braces.
  • Figure 13 is a schematic sectional view taken along the line XIII - XIII of figure 12.
  • a chassis glazed according to the invention comprises a frame formed of vertical uprights 1 and 2, an upper cross member 3 and of a lower cross member 4, a frame which is mentioned here as being produced by assembling wooden profiles but which, in practice, can also be made of metal or plastic.
  • the uprights 1 and 2 and the crosspieces 3 and 4 have a rebate formed by a support 5 and a side 6.
  • a window 7 is placed in the rebate, against the support 5, between two sides 6 located face to face.
  • the window 7, after installation, is maintained by means of glazing beads 8, 9, 10 and 11 which are hollow, i.e. that they have a U-shaped section, having a core 12 uniting two wings 13 and 14.
  • the depth of the rebate that is to say the distance which separates the support 5 from the front face of the corresponding upright 1 or 2 is, here, equal to the sum of the thickness of the window 7 and the width of the corresponding glazing bead 8 or 9 measured from one outer face to the other of the wings 13 and 14.
  • the width of the rebate i.e. the distance separates the sidewall 6 from the inside edge of the corresponding upright 1 where 2 is, here, equal to the width of the glazing bead measured from the outer face of the core 12 to the end of the wings 13 and 14.
  • the upper cross member 3 serves to support a profile 15 to which is attached a blind formed by an apron 16 pleated in accordion to form horizontal bands, and integral an operating bar 17.
  • the deck By maneuvering the operating bar 17, the deck is moved 16 between its extreme high position corresponding to its erasure, so when opened, and its extreme low position corresponding to its deployment, therefore to its closure.
  • the apron 16 is completely picked up, that is to say it is folded in on itself, its horizontal bands being stacked on top of each other, in zigzag.
  • the apron 16 In the extreme low position, the apron 16 is completely deployed and completely covers the glazed part of the chassis, over its entire height.
  • the lowering and raising movements of the deck 16 are obtained by acting by hand on the operating bar 17.
  • Each horizontal strip of the deck 16 is crossed by two holes 18 and 19 located near the vertical edges of the deck 16.
  • Two cords 20 and 21 are engaged and tensioned, respectively in holes 18 and in holes 19, in order to avoid lateral swings of the deck 16 and allow its manipulation by acting anywhere on the bar maneuver 17, and not only in the middle.
  • the vertical margins left and right of the apron 16 are engaged in the glazing beads vertical 8 and 9, so that this apron 16 is inserted between the cores 12 located face to face with the vertical glazing beads 8 and 9 and is guided by the wings 13 and 14 of each of these glazing beads.
  • this seal 22 must be very flexible because it does not must not create friction which would impede the movements of the apron 16 and, even, which could damage it.
  • FIG. 4 shows the solution according to which the glazing bead has, as described above, a U-shaped profile, having a core 12 and two wings 13 and 14.
  • the window 7 is kept pressed against the support 5 of the rebate by the outer face of the wing 13.
  • FIG. 5 shows a variant according to which the glazing bead has an L-shaped profile having only the core 12 and a single wing 14, the wing 13 being deleted.
  • the window 7 is kept pressed against the support 5 of the rebate by the edge of the core 12.
  • the surface according to which the window 7 is pinched between the support 5 and the glazing bead is equal to the outer width of wing 13 multiplied by the height of the glazing bead.
  • this surface is much less since it is equal to the thickness of the material forming the core 12 multiplied, of course, by the height of the glazing bead.
  • the core 12 instead to present its simple thickness, can be provided with a pad or have a slightly greater thickness.
  • Cords 20 and 21 have a route specially designed for prevent the operating bar 17 from being placed obliquely when lowered or raised to open or close the blind.
  • the cord 20 is fixed by one of its ends to a point lower attachment 30 located at the base of the glazing bead 9, it extends in this paragraph 9 as far as the bar maneuver 17 which has, for this purpose, a lower passage aligned with a pulley 31 on which it passes and which obliquely returns to a second pulley 32 under which it passes and then leaves the maneuver bar 17 with a overpass thereof, to rise in the glazing bead 8, pass through an eyelet 33 placed in the lower part left of profile 15, after which it extends horizontally in profile 15 and is fixed to one end of a spring 34.
  • the cord 21 is fixed by one of its ends to a point lower attachment 35 located at the base of the glazing bead 8 (therefore in symmetry with the attachment point 30), it extends in this glazing bead 8 as far as the operating bar 17 which has, for this purpose, a lower passage aligned with the pulley 32 on which it passes and which returns it obliquely to the pulley 31 under which it passes, then comes out of the bar maneuver 17 by an overpass thereof, for rise in glazing bead 9, pass through a non-eyelet visible in the drawing, symmetrical to the eyelet 33, and placed in the lower right part of profile 15, after which it extends horizontally in the profile 15 and is fixed to the other end of the spring 34.
  • the pulleys can be replaced by curved and smooth parts, ensuring the return of movements by simple sliding of the cords.
  • the operating bar 17 cannot therefore move horizontally because then it acts simultaneously on the two opposite strands of each cord 20 and 21, so that the movement of the operating bar 17 causes necessarily the lengthening of a strand and the shortening correlative of the opposite strand.
  • the spring 34 makes it possible to permanently ensure the tension of the cords 20 and 21 because these are fixed by one of their ends at attachment points 30 and 35 and spring 34 them stresses in traction.
  • this spring 34 is optional because the tension cords 20 and 21 may not be essential.
  • the framework of the glass frame is made of plastic profiles of relatively complex shapes, suitable for manufacturing in factory, as well as quick mounting and fastening on the construction site.
  • chassis is of the type called "double glazing", comprising two panes 7a and 7b separated by a space insulation 7c.
  • the upper horizontal crosspiece 40 has at its part lower front, a groove 41 bordered by two wings reentrants 42 and 43, while glazing bead 10 has at its upper part two tabs 44 and 45 elastically deformable and each terminated by an outer rim.
  • the lower horizontal crossbar 50 is symmetrical to the cross 40 and therefore also has a groove 51 bordered by two re-entrant wings 52 and 53.
  • the lower glazing bead 11 has a general U-shaped section and contains a part 55 (here, a profile) on which are provided the attachment points 30 and 35 for the cords 20 and 21.
  • the glazing bead 11 On its underside, the glazing bead 11 has two tabs 56 and 57 elastically deformable and each terminated by a outer rim.
  • the complete glazed frame can be entirely manufactured in the factory, then transported and mounted on place with a minimum of operations.
  • the blind apron 16 When the blind apron 16 is in the extreme low position corresponding to its closure, it ensures a concealment full, light cannot filter through any of the four sides of the blind.
  • the blind apron 16 When the blind apron 16 is in the extreme high position corresponding to its opening, it unmasks the entire glass surface between glazing beads, no element coming reduce the "daylight" of the chassis.
  • blind is placed inside the building, in front of window 7 (or 7a) and not between the two windows 7a and 7b, in space 7c as is sometimes done.
  • the apron 16 is therefore easily accessible and its disassembly, for a replacement for example, is instantaneous since just remove the profile 15 and the part 55, the apron 16 being integral with the profile 15 and the cords 20 and 21 fixed to Exhibit 55.
  • the operating bar 17 receives a rod 25 which extends vertically when lifting the bar maneuver 17 higher than a user can do with the arm raised.
  • the rod 25 is pivotally mounted around a horizontal axis a yoke 26 located near one end of the bar operation 17, opposite a longitudinal housing 27 open on the underside of the operating bar 17.
  • the rod 25 When the rod 25 is not used, it is concealed in the housing 27 and the operating bar 17 behaves as if the rod 25 did not exist.
  • the rod 25 In the high position of the operating bar 17, the rod 25 remains out of its housing 27 and its free end is accessible by the hand of a user.
  • the latter can then pull on the rod 25 to lower the operating bar 17 up to a level where the user can act directly on this operating bar 17, in which case it rotates the rod 25 in the direction of arrow F1 of the figure 10 until it is fully retracted into the housing 27 where it is retained by any means within the reach of a person skilled in the art, such as elastic pliers (not shown).
  • Figure 11 shows a variant of this embodiment according to which the yoke 26 is integral with a carriage (not visible in the drawing) mounted mobile by roller bearing or by sliding pads on guides 28 and 29 which constitute the edges of the housing 27.
  • the user can thus place the yoke 26 on one side or the other of the operating bar 17, to the right or to the left of the chassis window.
  • the rod 25 can then be returned to its housing 27, either in the direction of arrow F1 in Figure 10, either in the opposite direction of arrow F3 in figure 11.
  • the rod 25 is housed in one of the vertical glazing beads 8 or 9 so that it does not stay in front the glazed part of the chassis when the operating bar 17 is in the high position.
  • the rod 25 can be pulled close to its lower end, for example thanks to a notch, not shown, allowing the user's fingers to reach the rod 25 in the glazing bead 8 or 9.
  • FIGs 6 to 9 there is shown the case of a chassis glazed with a single window 7 (or a single double glazing 7a-7b) because the apron 16 extending from a lateral glazing bead to a other, there should be no obstacle between them, likely to interfere with the movement of the deck 16.
  • Figures 12 and 13 show that it is possible to apply the invention in case a window opens to the French and therefore has two openings.
  • the apron 16 is then individual for each opening, as this can be seen in figure 12.
  • the invention also applies to the case where it is desired reverse the direction of operation of the bulkhead, i.e. it is picked up when opened (it then completely clears the glazed part of the chassis) and that it deploys from bottom to top to completely hide the glazed part of the frame when it reaches the glazing bead upper horizontal 10.
