Abstract

The building window frame (12) has a support strip (13) for the pane (11) edge. The support strip has a depending flange (16 with a bore (17) for an adjusting screw (18). The head of the screw can be reached by a bore (20) in the window frame.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einstellvorrichtung zum Ausrichten von Fensterscheiben nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to an adjusting device for alignment of window panes according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine solche Einstellvorrichtung ist aus der GB-A-1 147 673 bekannt.Such an adjustment device is known from GB-A-1 147 673.

In Figur 6 dieses Dokuments stützt sich eine Einstellschraube auf einem Hohlprofil ab mittels einer an den Kopf angrenzenden Schulter deren Durchmesser grösser ist als der Kopfdurchmesser.In Figure 6 of this document, an adjusting screw is supported on a hollow profile a shoulder adjacent to the head, the diameter of which is larger than that Head diameter.

Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, eine Einstellvorrichtung zum Ausrichten von Fensterscheiben in Fensterrahmen dahin gehend zu verbessern, dass sie feinfühlig eingestellt werden kann und einfacher in der Herstellung ist als bisher.The invention has the object of an adjusting device for Aligning window panes in window frames accordingly to improve that it can be adjusted sensitively and is easier to manufacture than before.

Die Erfindung löst die gestellte Aufgabe mittels einer Einstellvorrichtung zum Ausrichten von Fensterscheiben mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Die Einstellvorrichtung besteht nur aus zwei Teilen und ermöglicht es, die Scheibe im Fensterrahmen über die Einstellschraube feinfühlig nach oben oder nach unten zu justieren. Durch Schrauben der Einstellschraube nach oben kann der Fensterrahmen über die nach oben gedrückte Fensterscheibe auch so weit gespreizt werden, dass dadurch eine leichte und bequeme Demontage der Fensterscheibe aus dem Rahmen möglich ist. Somit eignet sich die erfindungsgemäße Einstellvorrichtung auch als komfortable Demontagehilfe.The invention solves this problem by means of an adjusting device for aligning window panes with the Features of claim 1. The adjustment device only exists from two parts and allows the pane in the window frame with the adjusting screw sensitively upwards or downwards to adjust below. By screwing the adjusting screw above the window frame can be pushed over the Window pane can also be spread so far that this an easy and convenient disassembly of the window from the Frame is possible. Thus, the invention is suitable Adjustment device also as a convenient disassembly aid.

Die Bohrung ist eine Stufenbohrung, wobei sich der Kopf der Stellschraube am Übergang vom Bohrungsbereich größeren Durchmessers zum Bohrungsbereich geringeren Durchmessers abstützt.The bore is a stepped bore, with the head of the Set screw at the transition from the larger diameter bore area to the bore area of smaller diameter.

Wegen der unterschiedlichen Wärmeausdehnungskoeffizienten verschiedener Materialien ist es sinnvoll, die Einstellvorrichtung aus dem Material des Fensterflügels herzustellen, insbesondere aus Kunststoff, Holz oder Metall.Because of the different coefficients of thermal expansion different Materials, it makes sense to use the adjustment device to manufacture from the material of the window sash, in particular made of plastic, wood or metal.

Damit die Einstellschraube nicht störend hervorsteht, kann der Bund im Bereich des Kopfes der Einstellschraube eine Senkung für Senkkopfschrauben oder Imbusschrauben aufweisen.So that the adjusting screw does not protrude disturbingly, the Collar in the area of the head of the adjusting screw for countersunk screws or Allen screws.

Hinsichtlich einer preiswerten und einfachen Herstellung kann die Auflagefläche und der Bund ein einteiliges Kunststoffspritzgussteil sein.With regard to an inexpensive and simple manufacture the support surface and the collar are a one-piece plastic injection molded part his.

Nachfolgend wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer erfindungsgemäßen Einstellvorrichtung anhand der beiliegenden Zeichnung näher erläutert.Below is an embodiment of an inventive Adjustment device based on the enclosed drawing explained in more detail.

Die einzige Figur zeigt eine Einstellvorrichtung 10 zum Justieren einer Fensterscheibe 11 in einem Fensterrahmen 12. Die Fensterscheibe 11 ruht auf einer Auflagefläche 13 der Einstellvorrichtung 10. Die Auflagefläche 13 liegt auf einer im Fensterrahmen eingearbeiteten Nut 15 auf. An die Auflagefläche 13 schließt sich ein Bund 16 an, der eine Längsbohrung 17 aufweist, in die eine Einstellschraube 18 eingeschraubt ist. Der Bund 16 weist im Bereich des Kopfes 19 der Einstellschraube 18 eine Senkung 21 auf, in die der Kopf 19 der Einstellschraube 18 versenkt werden kann. Der Kopf 19 der Einstellschraube 18 stützt sich am Übergang einer Bohrung 20 im Fensterrahmen 12 vom Bohrungsbereich größeren Durchmessers zum Bohrungsbereich geringeren Durchmessers ab. Somit bildet dieser Übergang das Gegenlager für die Einstellvorrichtung 10. Zum Justieren der Fensterscheibe 11 kann man nun von außen über die Bohrung 20 die Einstellschraube 18 nach links oder nach rechts drehen und somit die Fensterscheibe 11 über die Einstellvorrichtung 10 nach oben oder nach unten justieren.The single figure shows an adjusting device 10 for adjustment a window 11 in a window frame 12. Die Window pane 11 rests on a support surface 13 of the adjusting device 10. The support surface 13 is on a Window frame incorporated groove 15. On the contact surface 13 joins a collar 16 which has a longitudinal bore 17th has, into which an adjusting screw 18 is screwed. The collar 16 has in the area of the head 19 of the adjusting screw 18 a depression 21 in which the head 19 of the adjusting screw 18 can be sunk. The head 19 of the adjusting screw 18 is based on the transition of a bore 20 in the window frame 12 from the larger diameter bore area to Bore area of smaller diameter. Thus this forms Transition to the counter bearing for the adjusting device 10. To adjust the window pane 11 you can now from the outside via the bore 20, the adjusting screw 18 to the left or turn to the right and thus the window 11 over the Adjust setting device 10 upwards or downwards.
