Definitions

  • the invention relates to a side fitting for Tilt and turn windows, doors or the like, according to Preamble of claim 1.
  • the coupling part encompasses the ax arm partially, so that this with a rotary opening movement the window is supported, reducing the weight the window is not completely at the Bearing point added between the arm and insert must become.
  • the well-known side fitting is for right as well can also be used for left-hinged windows. If a change from a stop page to the other stop side, the well-known Side fitting, however, is broken down into its components become. In particular, the coupling part from Insert, the wing-side hinge part of the ax arm and the coupling part is separated from the insert or dismantled. The conversion the stop side is therefore quite cumbersome.
  • the side fitting when inserting the side fitting in a circumferential groove of the window sash an installation sequence is observed. The means the individual components of the side fitting are not yet connected, and must one after the other and in a certain order the circumferential groove are introduced. It can be too Confusion comes about, making a proper one Function of the side fitting is not possible. to The individual components must correct this error can be removed again individually.
  • the coupling part is mirror-symmetrical to its transverse central axis trained and in two different, layers on the insert offset by 180 ° to each other is definable.
  • Each layer is a stop side assigned to the window sash.
  • the coupling part does not necessarily refer on its outer contour, but on the functionally important ones Parts.
  • the slewing ring as a captive of ax arm, coupling part and insert effecting rotary connection is formed.
  • the pin - As mentioned above - from the ax arm that Coupling part and the insert extends through and has a head at its free end, the Diameter is larger than that of the pin.
  • this is also known as a mushroom cone the captivity in a particularly simple manner of ax arm, coupling part and insert accomplished.
  • the coupling part on the insert by means at least one realizing the connection Screw connection can be determined. So this will be Loosened screw connection, so the coupling part pivoted with respect to the insert and the arm so that one or the other Location of the coupling part is ingestible. After the changeover is the coupling part again with the Screw connection can be fixed on the insert. It is also provided that the screw connection symmetrical to the transverse central axis of the coupling part lying fasteners on the coupling part and Has insert. So it can be provided that only one through hole is provided on the coupling part is and on the insert, for example Threaded hole.
