Each section comprises a groove (18) provided with sealing (22) for receiving the glazing. An Independent claim is included for a method of manufacture and assembly of the window.

Description

L'invention concerne les fenêtres, portes-fenêtres, portes, ou analogue, en matériau thermoplastique.The invention relates to windows, French windows, doors, or the like, in thermoplastic material.

Elle vise plus particulièrement un ouvrant appartenant à de telles ouvertures, un procédé d'assemblage d'un tel ouvrant, ainsi qu'une ouverture de ce type possédant deux ouvrants destinés à venir en appui l'un sur l'autre.It relates more particularly to an opening belonging to such openings, a method of assembling such an opening, as well as an opening of this type having two openings intended to come to bear one on the other.

On connaít déjà des ouvrants en matériau thermoplastique, tel que notamment le PVC, destinés à des fenêtres, portes-fenêtres, portes ou analogue.We already know openings in thermoplastic material, such as in particular PVC, intended for windows, French windows, doors or the like.

On se réfère à la figure 1 qui représente une vue en coupe horizontale de la partie centrale d'une fenêtre à deux vantaux de l'art antérieur.Reference is made to FIG. 1 which represents a view in horizontal section of the central part of a window with two leaves of the prior art.

De tels ouvrants 100 sont destinés à venir en appui sur un autre ouvrant 101, ou sur un dormant, et comportent un panneau 102, notamment un vitrage, porté par et dans un cadre.Such openings 100 are intended to come to bear on another opening 101, or on a frame, and have a panel 102, in particular a glazing, worn by and in a frame.

Le cadre comporte lui-même deux montants 103 et deux traverses associés perpendiculairement deux à deux vers leurs extrémités, un montant et une traverse adjacents étant assemblés l'un à l'autre suivant un plan formant un angle voisin de 45° avec le dit montant et la dite traverse, le dit plan passant sensiblement par un coin du cadre.The frame itself comprises two uprights 103 and two associated crosspieces perpendicularly two by two towards their ends, an upright and a adjacent crosspieces being assembled to each other along a plane forming a angle close to 45 ° with the said upright and the said crosspiece, the said passing plane substantially by a corner of the frame.

Dans l'art antérieur, l'assemblage de l'ouvrant 100 est effectué de la façon suivante :

  • dans un premier temps, les traverses et les montants sont associés deux à deux afin de former un cadre, cet assemblage s'effectuant par soudage, du fait des propriétés thermoplastiques du matériau constitutif des montants et traverses ;
  • dans un deuxième temps, le panneau 102, notamment le vitrage, est placé dans le cadre, contre des surfaces d'appui 104 ménagées sur les montants et les traverses ;
  • enfin, des parcloses 105 sont associées au cadre, sur chaque montant et chaque traverse, afin de former, avec les surfaces d'appui 104 précitées, une gorge 106 permettant de bloquer le panneau dans le cadre.
In the prior art, the opening of the opening 100 is carried out as follows:
  • initially, the sleepers and the uprights are associated two by two in order to form a frame, this assembly being effected by welding, due to the thermoplastic properties of the material of the uprights and sleepers;
  • in a second step, the panel 102, in particular the glazing, is placed in the frame, against bearing surfaces 104 formed on the uprights and the crosspieces;
  • finally, glazing beads 105 are associated with the frame, on each upright and each cross member, in order to form, with the abovementioned bearing surfaces 104, a groove 106 making it possible to block the panel in the frame.

De plus, des joints d'étanchéité 107, 108 rapportés, d'une part sur les surfaces d'appui 104 ménagées sur les montants et les traverses et, d'autre part, sur les parcloses 105, permettent d'assurer une bonne étanchéité entre le cadre et le panneau 102.In addition, seals 107, 108 added, on the one hand to the surfaces 104 provided on the uprights and crosspieces and, on the other hand, on the glazing beads 105, ensure a good seal between the frame and the panel 102.

L'existence de parcloses 105 répond ainsi à un double objectif: assurer le blocage du panneau 102 dans le cadre de l'ouvrant 100, et participer à l'étanchéité entre le cadre et le panneau 102.The existence of glazing beads 105 thus meets a double objective: ensuring blocking of the panel 102 as part of the opening 100, and participating in the seal between the frame and the panel 102.

Dans cette méthode d'assemblage, les parcloses 105 sont donc indispensables. Par conséquent, un ouvrant 100 de l'art antérieur comprend au moins deux profilés : au moins un profilé P1 constitutif des montants et traverses, et un profilé P2 dans lequel sont découpées les parcloses 105.In this assembly method, the glazing beads 105 are therefore essential. Consequently, an opening 100 of the prior art comprises at least two profiles: at least one P1 profile constituting the uprights and crosspieces, and a profile P2 from which the glazing beads 105 are cut.

Par ailleurs, une ouverture 109 de l'art antérieur comportant deux ouvrants 100, 101, telle qu'illustrée sur la figure 1, comprend généralement davantage de profilés, les profilés utilisés pour la réalisation des deux ouvrants étant différents.Furthermore, an opening 109 of the prior art comprising two openings 100, 101, as illustrated in FIG. 1, generally comprises more profiles, the profiles used for the production of the two openings being different.

Ainsi, la réalisation d'une ouverture, notamment d'une fenêtre, de l'art antérieur nécessite plusieurs profilés, par exemple quatre profilés dans le cas de la réalisation de la figure 1 (P1, P2, P3, P4).Thus, making an opening, in particular a window, of the prior art requires several profiles, for example four profiles in the case of realization of figure 1 (P1, P2, P3, P4).

Or, le coût de l'outillage et des machines des filières d'extrusion est extrêmement élevé. En outre, plus le nombre de profilés à fabriquer est important, plus les campagnes d'extrusion sont courtes, et donc coûteuses.However, the cost of the tools and machines of the extrusion dies is extremely high. In addition, the more the number of profiles to be manufactured important, the shorter the extrusion campaigns, and therefore expensive.

L'invention a pour but de résoudre ces problèmes, en fournissant notamment un ouvrant en matériau thermoplastique ainsi qu'une ouverture possédant deux ouvrants, ne comportant qu'un seul profilé. The invention aims to solve these problems, in particular by providing a opening in thermoplastic material as well as an opening having two opening, comprising only one profile.

Comme il vient d'être expliqué, la réalisation d'une telle ouverture avec un unique profilé nécessite, en combinaison :

  • qu'il n'y ait pas besoin de parcloses, l'étanchéité entre le panneau et le cadre devant donc être réalisée différemment ;
  • que l'assemblage ne se fasse pas par soudage puisque celui-ci doit impérativement être effectué avant la mise en place du panneau, ce qui induit la présence de parcloses. Une autre méthode d'assemblage est donc fournie par l'invention.
As has just been explained, the realization of such an opening with a single profile requires, in combination:
  • that there is no need for glazing beads, the sealing between the panel and the frame must therefore be carried out differently;
  • that the assembly is not done by welding since it must imperatively be carried out before the installation of the panel, which induces the presence of glazing beads. Another assembly method is therefore provided by the invention.

Selon un premier aspect, l'invention concerne un ouvrant du type précédemment décrit, dont les montants et les traverses sont chacun constitués d'un unique et même profilé creux en matière thermoplastique. Les montants et les traverses sont associés transversalement deux à deux vers leurs extrémités, un montant et une traverse adjacents étant assemblés l'un à l'autre suivant un plan passant sensiblement par un coin du cadre et formant un angle, notamment voisin de 45°, avec le dit montant et la dite traverse.According to a first aspect, the invention relates to an opening of the type previously described, of which the uprights and the crosspieces are each made up of a single and same hollow profile in thermoplastic material. The amounts and the crosspieces are associated transversely two by two towards their ends, an adjacent upright and cross member being assembled to each other in a plane passing substantially through a corner of the frame and forming an angle, in particular around 45 °, with said amount and said crosspiece.

Le profilé présente sur l'un de ses côtés une gorge recevant un bord du panneau, et, sur son côté opposé, une partie saillante s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement au plan médian de la dite gorge et décalée par rapport au dit plan médian, la partie saillante portant, en regard du dit plan médian, un joint d'étanchéité destiné à coopérer avec une surface d'appui réalisée sur un autre ouvrant ou sur un dormant.The profile has on one of its sides a groove receiving an edge of the panel, and, on its opposite side, a projecting portion extending substantially parallel to the median plane of the said groove and offset from the said plane median, the projecting part bearing, opposite said median plane, a seal sealing intended to cooperate with a bearing surface produced on another opening or on a frame.

Selon l'invention, la gorge comporte des moyens d'étanchéité coopérant avec le bord du panneau engagé dans la dite gorge, de sorte que les montants et les traverses de l'ouvrant sont dépourvus de parcloses pour réaliser l'étanchéité avec le dit panneau.According to the invention, the groove comprises sealing means cooperating with the edge of the panel engaged in said groove, so that the uprights and the sash crossbars have no glazing beads for sealing with the said sign.

De plus, l'assemblage entre un montant et une traverse adjacents est réalisé à l'aide d'un organe rigide en forme d'équerre dont les branches sont engagées l'une dans le montant et l'autre dans la traverse. In addition, the assembly between an upright and an adjacent cross member is carried out using a rigid square-shaped member whose branches are engaged one in the upright and the other in the crosspiece.

Les moyens d'étanchéité de la gorge comprennent deux lèvres situées chacune vers la partie extrême d'une paroi latérale de la gorge et dirigées vers l'intérieur de la dite gorge, lesdites lèvres étant venues de fabrication avec le profilé.The throat sealing means include two lips each located towards the extreme part of a side wall of the gorge and directed inwards of said groove, said lips having come from manufacture with the profile.

L'équerre comporte une saillie linéaire formant un angle voisin de 45° avec chacune de ses branches, la dite saillie étant destinée, une fois un montant et une traverse adjacents assemblés par la dite équerre, à combler le jeu entre le dit montant et la dite traverse notamment à fin d'étanchéité.The square has a linear projection forming an angle close to 45 ° with each of its branches, the said projection being intended, once an amount and an adjacent cross member assembled by the so-called square, to fill the gap between the said amount and said crosspiece in particular for sealing.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques, les profilés sont fixés les uns aux autres par des vis passant dans des trous de l'équerre correspondante.According to other characteristics, the profiles are fixed to each other by screws passing through holes in the corresponding bracket.

Les vis sont auto-taraudeuses et le profilé comprend des alvéoles s'étendant selon l'axe du profilé et de section droite sensiblement triangulaire, les alvéoles recevant les dites vis, les dimensions de la section des alvéoles étant légèrement inférieures au diamètre des vis, de sorte que, lors de l'assemblage de l'ouvrant, le vissage puisse à la fois être effectué dans la paroi des alvéoles et guidé par les dites alvéoles.The screws are self-tapping and the profile includes cells extending along the axis of the profile and of substantially triangular cross section, the cells receiving the said screws, the dimensions of the section of the cells being slightly smaller than the diameter of the screws, so that during assembly opening, screwing can be carried out at the same time in the wall of the cells and guided by the said alveoli.

L'équerre comprend au moins une paroi plane s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à l'une de ses branches, sensiblement depuis la partie extrême commune des deux branches, et dans une direction opposée à l'autre branche, la dite paroi plane étant destinée à obturer au moins une cavité d'un montant ou d'une traverse, vers l'extrémité du profilé constitutif du dit montant ou de la dite traverse.The bracket comprises at least one flat wall extending substantially perpendicular to one of its branches, substantially from the part extreme common of the two branches, and in a direction opposite to each other branch, said flat wall being intended to close at least one cavity of a amount or a crosspiece, towards the end of the profile of said amount or said cross.

Chaque branche de l'équerre comprend une pluralité d'ailes s'engageant dans des cavités d'un montant ou d'une traverse, vers l'extrémité du profilé constitutif du dit montant ou de la dite traverse.Each branch of the bracket comprises a plurality of wings engaging in cavities of an upright or a cross member, towards the end of the constituent profile said amount or said cross.

Selon un deuxième aspect, l'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication et d'assemblage d'un ouvrant tel qu'il vient d'être décrit.According to a second aspect, the invention relates to a manufacturing process and assembly of an opening as just described.

Le procédé de fabrication et d'assemblage comprend les étapes suivantes :

  • a) on découpe les montants et les traverses de l'ouvrant dans un profilé creux selon des plans formant un angle voisin de 45° avec l'axe du dit profilé ;
  • b) on engage une branche d'un organe rigide en forme d'équerre dans chacune des parties extrêmes de chacune des deux traverses, respectivement de chacun des deux montants ;
  • c) on engage le panneau dans les gorges des montants, respectivement des traverses ;
  • d) on engage les branches libres des équerres liées aux traverses, respectivement aux montants, dans les parties extrêmes des montants, respectivement des traverses, portant le panneau, de sorte à fermer le cadre.
    • The manufacturing and assembly process includes the following steps:
  • a) the uprights and the crosspieces of the opening are cut from a hollow profile according to planes forming an angle close to 45 ° with the axis of said profile;
  • b) engaging a branch of a rigid square-shaped member in each of the end portions of each of the two crosspieces, respectively of each of the two uprights;
  • c) the panel is engaged in the grooves of the uprights, respectively of the sleepers;
  • d) engaging the free arms of the brackets linked to the crosspieces, respectively to the uprights, in the end portions of the uprights, respectively of the crosspieces, carrying the panel, so as to close the frame.

    • Selon une réalisation possible, on prévoit des moyens de maintien des branches des équerres dans les traverses, respectivement les montants, tel que notamment collage ou système d'encliquetage.According to one possible embodiment, means are provided for holding the branches brackets in the sleepers, respectively the uprights, such as in particular bonding or click system.

    Après l'étape d), on fixe chaque montant à la traverse adjacente par des vis passant dans des trous de l'équerre engagée dans le dit montant et la dite traverse.After step d), each post is fixed to the adjacent crossmember by screws passing through holes in the square engaged in the said upright and the said crosses.

    Enfin, selon un troisième aspect, l'invention concerne une ouverture, telle que notamment fenêtre, porte-fenêtre, porte, ou analogue, comprenant un premier et un deuxième ouvrants tels que précédemment décrit, les dits ouvrants étant destinés à venir en appui l'un sur l'autre, le premier ouvrant étant constitué d'un premier profilé et le deuxième ouvrant d'un deuxième profilé.Finally, according to a third aspect, the invention relates to an opening, such that in particular window, French window, door, or the like, comprising a first and a second opening as previously described, said opening being intended to come into abutment on each other, the first opening consisting of a first profile and the second opening of a second profile.

    Selon l'invention, les premier et deuxième profilés sont identiques, et le profilé constituant le montant intérieur du deuxième ouvrant est placé de telle sorte qu'il soit confondu, lorsque l'ouverture est fermée, avec l'image du profilé constituant le montant intérieur du premier ouvrant par une rotation de 180° par rapport à un axe situé, par rapport au dit premier ouvrant, sensiblement dans le plan médian de la gorge, sensiblement parallèlement au montant intérieur, du côté de la partie saillante, à distance du fond de la gorge, à l'extérieur du profilé. According to the invention, the first and second profiles are identical, and the profile constituting the internal amount of the second opening is placed so that it is confused, when the opening is closed, with the image of the profile constituting the internal upright of the first leaf by a rotation of 180 ° relative to a axis located, with respect to said first opening, substantially in the median plane of the groove, substantially parallel to the internal upright, on the side of the protruding part, at a distance from the bottom of the groove, outside the profile.

    Selon une réalisation, le profilé comprend en outre un prolongement s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement au plan médian de la gorge, le dit prolongement étant situé du même côté du profilé que la partie saillante et étant décalé par rapport au dit plan médian dans le demi-plan ne contenant pas la dite partie saillante, une face du prolongement étant sensiblement parallèle au plan médian mais non en regard du dit plan médian, de sorte que la dite face du profilé constitutif du montant intérieur du premier ouvrant forme une surface d'appui coopérant avec le joint d'étanchéité de la partie saillante du profilé constitutif du montant intérieur du deuxième ouvrant.According to one embodiment, the profile further comprises an extension extending substantially parallel to the median plane of the throat, the said extension being located on the same side of the profile as the projecting part and being offset by relation to the said median plane in the half-plane not containing the said part protruding, one side of the extension being substantially parallel to the plane median but not opposite the said median plane, so that the said face of the profile constituting the internal upright of the first leaf forms a surface support cooperating with the seal of the projecting part of the profile constituting the internal amount of the second opening.

    On se réfère tout d'abord à la figure 2 qui représente une fenêtre 1 comprenant un cadre dormant 2, fixé à la maçonnerie, et deux vantaux 3, 4 s'ouvrant vers l'intérieur I de la construction recevant la fenêtre. Bien entendu, l'invention concerne également le cas d'une fenêtre s'ouvrant vers l'extérieur E de la construction.We first refer to FIG. 2 which represents a window 1 comprising a frame 2, fixed to the masonry, and two leaves 3, 4 opening towards the interior I of the building receiving the window. Of course, the invention also relates to the case of a window opening towards the outside E of the construction.

    Les vantaux 3, 4 sont portés par le dormant 2 au moyen de pièces de quincaillerie telles que charnières et gonds, non représentées.The leaves 3, 4 are carried by the frame 2 by means of pieces of hardware such as hinges and hinges, not shown.

    Le premier vantail 3, appelé par la suite « ouvrant », porte d'autres pièces de quincaillerie, telles que poignées, etc. C'est le double ouvrant, c'est-à-dire le vantail que l'on ouvre en premier afin d'ouvrir la fenêtre.The first leaf 3, subsequently called "opening", carries other pieces of hardware, such as handles, etc. It is the double opening, that is to say the leaf that we open first to open the window.

    Le deuxième vantail 4, appelé par la suite « ouvrant semi-fixe », est le vantail que l'on ouvre en dernier lors de l'ouverture de la fenêtre.The second leaf 4, hereinafter called "semi-fixed opening", is the leaf which is opened last when the window is opened.

    Dans toute la description, on désigne par « ouvrant » à la fois de façon générale chacun des deux vantaux 3, 4, et de façon particulière l'ouvrant 3.Throughout the description, the term “opening” is used both generally each of the two leaves 3, 4, and in particular opening it 3.

    Chaque ouvrant 3, 4 comprend un cadre et, porté par et dans le cadre, un vitrage 5. Selon une réalisation, illustrée notamment sur la figure 3, le vitrage 5 est un double vitrage isolant comprenant une vitre intérieure 6, une vitre extérieure 7, un espace 8 séparant les deux vitres 6, 7, et une entretoise périphérique 9. Le vitrage 5 définit un plan P médian.Each opening 3, 4 includes a frame and, carried by and within the frame, a glazing 5. According to one embodiment, illustrated in particular in FIG. 3, the glazing 5 is an insulating double glazing comprising an interior window 6, a window exterior 7, a space 8 separating the two panes 6, 7, and a spacer peripheral 9. The glazing 5 defines a median plane P.

    Dans la suite de la description, et pour plus de commodité, on considère que la fenêtre 1 est fermée. Le plan P est alors celui dans lequel, ou au voisinage duquel, se trouve le cadre de chacun des ouvrants 3, 4 et le dormant 2.In the following description, and for convenience, it is considered that the window 1 is closed. The plane P is then that in which, or in the vicinity which is the frame of each of the opening 3, 4 and the frame 2.

    Le cadre de l'ouvrant 3 comprend :

    • deux montants verticaux : un montant extérieur 10, articulé au dormant 2, et un montant intérieur 11 destiné à venir en appui sur l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 ;
    • une traverse supérieure 12 et une traverse inférieure 13.
    The frame of sash 3 includes:
    • two vertical uprights: an outer upright 10, articulated to the frame 2, and an inner upright 11 intended to come to bear on the semi-fixed opening 4;
    • an upper cross member 12 and a lower cross member 13.

    De façon analogue, le cadre de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 comprend un montant extérieur 14, articulé au dormant 2, et un montant intérieur 15 destiné à venir en appui sur l'ouvrant 3, ainsi qu'une traverse supérieure 16 et une traverse inférieure 17.Similarly, the frame of the semi-fixed opening 4 comprises an upright exterior 14, articulated to the frame 2, and an interior upright 15 intended to come in support on the opening 3, as well as an upper cross 16 and a cross lower 17.

    Dans un premier temps, on décrit l'ouvrant 3, ainsi que son procédé d'assemblage.First, we describe the opening 3, as well as its process assembly.

    Les montants 10, 11 et les traverses 12, 13 sont constitués d'un unique et même profilé creux, réalisé en matériau thermoplastique, tel que le PVC, obtenu par exemple par extrusion.The uprights 10, 11 and the crosspieces 12, 13 consist of a single and same hollow profile, made of thermoplastic material, such as PVC, obtained for example by extrusion.

    Le profilé, représenté notamment sur les figures 3 et 4, comporte tout d'abord, sur l'un de ses côtés, une gorge 18 sensiblement parallélépipédique s'étendant suivant l'axe du profilé. La gorge 18 comprend un fond 19 sensiblement plan et deux parois latérales 20, 21 sensiblement perpendiculaires au fond 19. La gorge 18 est destinée à recevoir le bord du vitrage 5, le plan médian de la gorge 18 perpendiculaire au fond 19 étant alors sensiblement confondu avec le plan médian P du vitrage 5. Par la suite, on désignera également par « P » le plan médian de la gorge 18 du profilé. The profile, shown in particular in Figures 3 and 4, firstly comprises, on one of its sides, a substantially parallelepiped groove 18 extending along the axis of the profile. The groove 18 comprises a substantially flat bottom 19 and two side walls 20, 21 substantially perpendicular to the bottom 19. The groove 18 is intended to receive the edge of the glazing 5, the median plane of the groove 18 perpendicular to the bottom 19 then being substantially coincident with the plane median P of glazing 5. Subsequently, the plane will also be designated by "P" median of the groove 18 of the profile.

    Les parties extrêmes 20a, 21a des parois latérales 20, 21 comportent chacune une lèvre d'étanchéité 22 co-extrudée avec le profilé, s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement à l'axe du profilé. Les lèvres d'étanchéité 22 sont dirigées vers l'intérieur de la gorge 18 et sont suffisamment souples pour pouvoir être déformées lors de l'insertion du vitrage 5 dans la dite gorge 18. Comme illustré sur la figure 3, une fois le vitrage 5 mis en place dans la gorge 18, chaque lèvre 22 s'appuie sur la vitre 6, 7 correspondante, et est légèrement incurvée, la concavité de la lèvre 22 étant dirigée vers l'intérieur de la gorge 18.The end portions 20a, 21a of the side walls 20, 21 each have a sealing lip 22 co-extruded with the profile, extending substantially parallel to the axis of the profile. The sealing lips 22 are directed towards inside the groove 18 and are flexible enough to be deformed when the glazing 5 is inserted into said groove 18. As illustrated in FIG. 3, once the glazing 5 has been placed in the groove 18, each lip 22 rests on the corresponding window 6, 7, and is slightly curved, the concavity of the lip 22 being directed towards the inside of the groove 18.

    Les lèvres d'étanchéité 22 sont réalisées en un PVC plus souple que le PVC utilisé pour le reste du profilé. Elles peuvent ainsi assurer une étanchéité parfaite, empêchant notamment l'eau de pénétrer par capillarité à l'intérieur de la gorge 18.The sealing lips 22 are made of a softer PVC than PVC used for the rest of the profile. They can thus ensure a seal perfect, notably preventing water from penetrating by capillary action inside throat 18.

    Le profilé comporte également, sur son côté opposé au côté présentant la gorge 18, une partie saillante 23 s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement au plan médian P de la gorge 18, et décalée d'une certaine distance par rapport au dit plan médian P.The profile also comprises, on its side opposite to the side having the groove 18, a projecting portion 23 extending substantially parallel to the plane median P of throat 18, and offset by a certain distance from said median plane P.

    La partie saillante 23 comprend une paroi extérieure 24 sensiblement parallèle au plan médian P, une paroi intérieure 25 sensiblement parallèle à la paroi extérieure 24, une paroi de liaison 26 et une paroi extrême 27, ces dernières étant sensiblement perpendiculaires aux parois extérieure 24 et intérieure 25. Ces quatre parois 24, 25, 26, 27 sont sensiblement planes, la paroi extérieure 24 comportant en outre un décrochement 28 vers l'intérieur du profilé.The protruding part 23 comprises an outer wall 24 substantially parallel in the median plane P, an inner wall 25 substantially parallel to the wall outer 24, a connecting wall 26 and an end wall 27, the latter being substantially perpendicular to the outer 24 and inner 25 walls. These four walls 24, 25, 26, 27 are substantially flat, the outer wall 24 further comprising a recess 28 towards the inside of the profile.

    De plus, la partie saillante 23 comporte une cavité interne 29 définie entre les quatre parois 24, 25, 26, 27. La face intérieure 25 présente une cavité linéaire 30, s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement à l'axe du profilé, et destinée à recevoir un joint d'étanchéité 31.In addition, the protruding part 23 has an internal cavity 29 defined between the four walls 24, 25, 26, 27. The inner face 25 has a linear cavity 30, extending substantially parallel to the axis of the profile, and intended for receive a seal 31.

    Par ailleurs, le profilé comporte une alvéole 32 de section droite triangulaire, qui s'étend sensiblement parallèlement à l'axe du profilé, la dite alvéole 32 étant située, à l'intérieur du profilé, entre la partie saillante 23 et la gorge 18. Comme il sera décrit plus loin, l'alvéole 32 est destinée à recevoir des vis lors de l'assemblage de l'ouvrant 3.Furthermore, the profile comprises a cell 32 of triangular cross section, which extends substantially parallel to the axis of the profile, said cell 32 being located, inside the profile, between the projecting part 23 and the groove 18. As it will be described later, the cell 32 is intended to receive screws during opening the door 3.

    La partie saillante 23 est reliée à la partie extrême 21a de la paroi latérale 21 de la gorge 18 par une paroi courbe 33, dont la concavité est dirigée vers l'intérieur du profilé. Une cavité 34 est définie entre la paroi courbe 33, la paroi de liaison 26 de la partie saillante 23, la paroi latérale 21 de la gorge 18 et l'alvéole 32.The protruding part 23 is connected to the end part 21a of the side wall 21 of the groove 18 by a curved wall 33, the concavity of which is directed inwards of the profile. A cavity 34 is defined between the curved wall 33, the connecting wall 26 of the protruding part 23, the side wall 21 of the groove 18 and the cell 32.

    Le profilé comporte en outre une alvéole 32', une cavité 34' et une paroi courbe 33' symétriques des alvéole 32, cavité 34 et paroi courbe 33 par rapport au plan médian P de la gorge 18.The profile further comprises a cell 32 ', a cavity 34' and a curved wall 33 'symmetrical of the cells 32, cavity 34 and curved wall 33 relative to the plane median P of throat 18.

    Enfin, le profilé comporte une cavité 35 en forme de U dont le fond 36 est parallèle et adjacent au fond 19 de la gorge 18, la dite cavité en U 35 étant symétrique par rapport au plan médian P. Les alvéoles 32, 32' sont situées de part et d'autre du fond 36 de la dite cavité en U 35.Finally, the profile has a U-shaped cavity 35, the bottom 36 of which is parallel and adjacent to the bottom 19 of the groove 18, the said U-shaped cavity 35 being symmetrical about the median plane P. The cells 32, 32 'are located on either side of the bottom 36 of said U-shaped cavity 35.

    Une première branche 37 de la cavité en U 35 est adjacente à la partie saillante 23, tandis qu'une deuxième branche forme un prolongement 38 du profilé. Le prolongement 38 s'étend donc sensiblement parallèlement au plan médian P et est situé du même côté du profilé que la partie saillante 23. Le prolongement 38 est décalé par rapport au plan médian P dans le demi-plan ne contenant pas la partie saillante 23. Le prolongement 38 comprend une face 39 sensiblement plane et dirigée vers l'extérieur du profilé formant surface d'appui, comme il sera décrit plus loin.A first branch 37 of the U-shaped cavity 35 is adjacent to the projecting part 23, while a second branch forms an extension 38 of the profile. The extension 38 therefore extends substantially parallel to the median plane P and is located on the same side of the profile as the protruding part 23. The extension 38 is offset from the median plane P in the half-plane not containing the protruding part 23. The extension 38 comprises a face 39 substantially flat and directed towards the outside of the profile forming a bearing surface, as will be described later.

    Entre les branches 37, 38 de la cavité en U 35, et à l'extérieur du profilé, est ménagé un espace 40, tandis qu'à l'intérieur de la cavité en U 35 est présente une pièce 41 destiné à rigidifier le profilé.Between the branches 37, 38 of the U-shaped cavity 35, and outside of the profile, is formed a space 40, while inside the U-shaped cavity 35 is present a part 41 intended to stiffen the profile.

    Comme représenté sur les figures 4 et 5, les montants 10, 11 et les traverses 12, 13 de l'ouvrant 3 sont des portions du profilé qui vient d'être décrit, les découpes ayant été effectuées selon un plan incliné de 45° par rapport à l'axe du dit profilé. As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the uprights 10, 11 and the sleepers 12, 13 of the opening 3 are portions of the profile which has just been described, the cuts having been made on an inclined plane of 45 ° relative to the axis of said profile.

    Pour chacun des montants 10, 11 et chacune des traverses 12, 13, la partie saillante 23 du profilé est située du même côté du cadre, en l'occurrence vers l'intérieur I de la construction recevant la fenêtre 1.For each of the uprights 10, 11 and each of the crosspieces 12, 13, the part projection 23 of the profile is located on the same side of the frame, in this case towards the interior I of the building receiving window 1.

    Les montants 10, 11 et les traverses 12, 13 sont associés perpendiculairement deux à deux vers leurs extrémités, de sorte à former le cadre de l'ouvrant 3. Un montant et une traverse adjacents sont assemblés l'un à l'autre suivant un plan formant un angle voisin de 45° avec le dit montant et la dite traverse, et passant sensiblement par un coin 42 du cadre.The uprights 10, 11 and the crosspieces 12, 13 are associated perpendicularly two by two towards their ends, so as to form the frame of the leaf 3. A adjacent upright and cross member are joined to each other in a plane forming an angle close to 45 ° with the said upright and the said crosspiece, and passing substantially by a corner 42 of the frame.

    L'assemblage ne se fait pas par soudage, comme c'est le cas dans l'art antérieur, mais mécaniquement, à l'aide de quatre équerres rigides 43.The assembly is not done by welding, as is the case in the art anterior, but mechanically, using four rigid brackets 43.

    L'équerre 43, telle que représentée sur les figures 4 à 7, comporte deux branches 44, 45 formant entre elles un angle voisin de 90°. Chaque branche comporte une pluralité d'ailes, respectivement 44a, 45a, de section droite linéaire ou en U, notamment.The bracket 43, as shown in Figures 4 to 7, has two branches 44, 45 forming between them an angle close to 90 °. Each branch has a plurality of wings, respectively 44a, 45a, of cross section linear or U-shaped, in particular.

    Chacune de ces ailes 44a, 45a est destinée à être engagée, lors de l'assemblage des montants 10, 11 et des traverses 12, 13, notamment dans les cavités 29, 34, 34', 35 du profilé constitutif du montant ou de la traverse correspondante, comme le montre la figure 7 qui représente une coupe d'un profilé constitutif d'un montant ou d'une traverse, vers l'extrémité du dit montant ou de la dite traverse, une branche de l'équerre 43 ayant été engagée dans le dit profilé.Each of these wings 44a, 45a is intended to be engaged, during the assembly of the uprights 10, 11 and the crosspieces 12, 13, in particular in the cavities 29, 34, 34 ', 35 of the profile constituting the upright or the cross-member corresponding, as shown in Figure 7 which shows a section of a profile constituting an upright or a cross member, towards the end of said upright or of the said crosspiece, a branch of the bracket 43 having been engaged in the said streamlined.

    Ainsi, l'assemblage d'un montant 10 avec une traverse adjacente 12 est réalisé à l'aide d'une équerre 43 dont les branches 44, 45 sont engagées l'une dans le montant 10 et l'autre dans la traverse 12.Thus, the assembly of an upright 10 with an adjacent crosspiece 12 is achieved using a square 43 whose branches 44, 45 are engaged one in the upright 10 and the other in the cross member 12.

    L'équerre 43 comporte également une paroi sensiblement plane 46 formant un angle voisin de 45° avec chacune des branches 44, 45 de l'équerre 43, et passant vers la partie extrême commune des deux branches 44, 45. The bracket 43 also includes a substantially planar wall 46 forming a angle close to 45 ° with each of the branches 44, 45 of the bracket 43, and passing towards the common end part of the two branches 44, 45.

    La paroi 46 est destinée à venir en contact avec les extrémités à 45° des montants et traverses de l'ouvrant 3. De plus, un bord 47 de la paroi 46 forme une saillie linéaire destinée, une fois le montant 10 et la traverse adjacente 12 assemblés par l'équerre 43, à combler le jeu j entre le dit montant 10 et la dite traverse 12, à fin d'étanchéité et d'esthétique entre autres (voir figure 5).The wall 46 is intended to come into contact with the 45 ° ends of the amounts and crosspieces of the opening 3. In addition, an edge 47 of the wall 46 forms a linear projection intended, once the upright 10 and the adjacent cross 12 assembled by the bracket 43, to fill the clearance j between the said upright 10 and the said cross 12, for sealing and aesthetics among others (see Figure 5).

    On décrit à présent le procédé d'assemblage de l'ouvrant 3.We now describe the method of assembling the opening 3.

    Dans un premier temps, on engage une branche 44 d'une équerre 43 dans chacune des parties extrêmes de la traverse supérieure 12. On procède de même avec la traverse inférieure 13.First, we engage a branch 44 of a square 43 in each of the end portions of the upper cross member 12. The procedure is to even with the bottom cross member 13.

    De préférence, les équerres 43 sont maintenues dans les traverses 12, 13, par exemple par collage, à l'aide de moyens d'encliquetage, ou avec du mastic.Preferably, the brackets 43 are held in the crosspieces 12, 13, by example by gluing, using snap-in means, or with putty.

    Dans un deuxième temps, on introduit le vitrage 5 dans la gorge 18 des profilés constitutifs des montants 10, 11.In a second step, the glazing 5 is introduced into the groove 18 of the profiles constituting the amounts 10, 11.

    Ensuite, l'ensemble montants 10, 11 - vitrage 5 et l'ensemble traverses 12, 13 - quatre équerres 43 sont associés de façon à former le cadre de l'ouvrant 3, les branches 45 des équerres 43 jusque là non engagées dans des profilés venant à présent s'engager dans les parties extrêmes des montants 10, 11.Then, the upright assembly 10, 11 - glazing 5 and the cross member assembly 12, 13 - four brackets 43 are associated so as to form the frame of the opening 3, the branches 45 of the brackets 43 hitherto not engaged in profiles coming now engage in the extreme parts of the uprights 10, 11.

    Enfin, les équerres 43 sont fixées aux montants 10, 11 et traverses 12, 13 par vissage. A cet effet, les équerres 43 comportent des trous 48 (voir figure 6) destinés au passage de vis de fixation 49.Finally, the brackets 43 are fixed to the uprights 10, 11 and crosspieces 12, 13 by screwing. For this purpose, the brackets 43 have holes 48 (see Figure 6) intended for the passage of fixing screws 49.

    Comme le montrent les figures 5 et 7, les trous 48 sont placés de telle sorte que, lorsque la branche 44 de l'équerre 43 est engagée dans le profilé constitutif de la traverse supérieure 12, et la branche 45 de l'équerre 43 est engagée dans le profilé constitutif du montant intérieur 11, les trous 48 de la branche 44 sont alignés avec les alvéoles 32, 32' du profilé constitutif du montant intérieur 11. As shown in Figures 5 and 7, the holes 48 are placed so that, when the branch 44 of the bracket 43 is engaged in the constituent section of the upper cross member 12, and the branch 45 of the bracket 43 is engaged in the profile constituting the internal upright 11, the holes 48 of the branch 44 are aligned with the cells 32, 32 ′ of the profile constituting the internal upright 11.

    De plus, les dimensions de la section droite des alvéoles 32, 32' du profilé sont légèrement inférieures au diamètre des vis de fixation 49, les dites vis de fixation 49 étant auto-taraudeuses. Ainsi, la vis 49 passe dans le trou 48 de l'équerre 43, puis coopère avec l'alvéole 32, par exemple, le vissage s'effectuant dans la paroi de l'alvéole 32 et étant guidé par la dite alvéole 32.In addition, the dimensions of the cross section of the cells 32, 32 'of the profile are slightly smaller than the diameter of the fixing screws 49, the so-called attachment 49 being self-tapping. Thus, the screw 49 passes through the hole 48 of the bracket 43, then cooperates with the socket 32, for example, the screwing taking place in the wall of cell 32 and being guided by said cell 32.

    Bien entendu, on peut également employer un procédé d'assemblage similaire à celui qui vient d'être décrit en associant le vitrage 5 aux traverses 12, 13 et les équerres 43 aux montants 10, 11.Of course, an assembly process similar to that just described by associating the glazing 5 with the crosspieces 12, 13 and the brackets 43 to the uprights 10, 11.

    La figure 5 représente schématiquement le cadre ouvrant 3 une fois assemblé, ainsi que la position des équerres 43 et des vis de fixation 49 et la section rabattue des profilés constitutifs des montants 10, 11 et des traverses 12, 13.FIG. 5 schematically represents the opening frame 3 once assembled, as well as the position of the brackets 43 and the fixing screws 49 and the section folded down of the profiles constituting the uprights 10, 11 and the crosspieces 12, 13.

    Le procédé d'assemblage mécanique selon l'invention présente l'avantage, par rapport à l'art antérieur, de ne pas nécessiter de parcloses, l'étanchéité entre le vitrage 5 et le cadre 3 étant assurée par la lèvre 22 et le montage du vitrage 5 dans la gorge 18 du profilé. Au contraire, l'art antérieur implique nécessairement la mise en place du vitrage 5 après l'assemblage par soudage du cadre, et donc l'ajout ultérieur de parcloses.The mechanical assembly method according to the invention has the advantage, by compared to the prior art, not to require glazing beads, the seal between the glazing 5 and the frame 3 being provided by the lip 22 and the mounting of the glazing 5 in the groove 18 of the profile. On the contrary, the prior art necessarily implies the installation of the glazing 5 after the assembly by welding of the frame, and therefore the subsequent addition of glazing beads.

    On décrit à présent l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 et la fenêtre 1.We now describe the semi-fixed opening 4 and the window 1.

    Les montants 14, 15 et les traverses 16, 17 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 sont constitués du même profilé creux que les montants 10, 11 et les traverses 12, 13 de l'ouvrant 3.The uprights 14, 15 and the crosspieces 16, 17 of the semi-fixed opening 4 are made of the same hollow profile as the uprights 10, 11 and the crosspieces 12, 13 of the opening 3.

    Comme représenté sur les figures 8 et 9, les montants 14, 15 et les traverses 16, 17 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 sont des portions du profilé qui vient d'être décrit, les découpes ayant été effectuées selon un plan incliné de 45° par rapport à l'axe du dit profilé.As shown in Figures 8 and 9, the uprights 14, 15 and the sleepers 16, 17 of the semi-fixed opening 4 are portions of the profile which has just been described, the cuts having been made according to an inclined plane of 45 ° with respect to the axis of said profile.

    Pour chacune des traverses 16, 17, ainsi que pour le montant extérieur 14, la partie saillante 23 du profilé est située du même côté du cadre, en l'occurrence vers l'intérieur I de la construction recevant la fenêtre 1, tandis que pour le montant intérieur 15, la partie saillante 23 du profilé est située du côté opposé du cadre, en l'occurrence vers l'extérieur E de la construction recevant la fenêtre 1. Cette caractéristique est notamment illustrée par la figure 9, où l'on peut constater grâce à la représentation des sections rabattues des profilés que le montant intérieur 15 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 est inversé par rapport aux traverses 16, 17 et au montant extérieur 14.For each of the crosspieces 16, 17, as well as for the external upright 14, the projection 23 of the profile is located on the same side of the frame, in this case inward I of the building receiving window 1, while for the internal upright 15, the projecting part 23 of the profile is located on the opposite side of the frame, in this case towards the outside E of the construction receiving the window 1. This characteristic is notably illustrated by FIG. 9, where one can see from the representation of the folded sections of the profiles that the internal upright 15 of the semi-fixed opening 4 is reversed relative to the crosspieces 16, 17 and the external upright 14.

    Ainsi, comme illustré sur la figure 3, le montant intérieur 11 de l'ouvrant 3 et le montant intérieur 15 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 sont symétriques, lorsque la fenêtre 1 est fermée, par rapport à un axe X tel que :

    • l'axe X est situé, lorsque la fenêtre 1 est fermée, sensiblement dans le plan médian P de la gorge 18 ;
    • l'axe X est sensiblement parallèle aux montants de la fenêtre 1 ;
    • l'axe X est situé du côté de la partie saillante 23 du montant intérieur 11 de l'ouvrant 3 ;
    • l'axe X est situé à distance du fond 19 de la gorge 18 du montant intérieur 11 de l'ouvrant 3, à l'extérieur du profilé, dans l'espace 40.
    Thus, as illustrated in FIG. 3, the internal upright 11 of the opening 3 and the internal upright 15 of the semi-fixed opening 4 are symmetrical, when the window 1 is closed, with respect to an axis X such that:
    • the axis X is located, when the window 1 is closed, substantially in the median plane P of the groove 18;
    • the X axis is substantially parallel to the uprights of window 1;
    • the axis X is located on the side of the projecting part 23 of the internal upright 11 of the opening 3;
    • the axis X is located at a distance from the bottom 19 of the groove 18 of the internal upright 11 of the opening 3, outside the profile, in the space 40.

    Lorsque la fenêtre 1 est fermée, la face extérieure 39 du prolongement 38 du montant intérieur 11 de l'ouvrant 3 forme une surface d'appui pour le joint d'étanchéité 31 placé dans la cavité linéaire 30 du montant intérieur 15 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4. Réciproquement, la face extérieure 39 du prolongement 38 du montant intérieur 15 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 forme une surface d'appui pour le joint d'étanchéité 31 placé dans la cavité linéaire 30 du montant intérieur 11 de l'ouvrant 3.When the window 1 is closed, the outer face 39 of the extension 38 of the internal upright 11 of the opening 3 forms a bearing surface for the seal seal 31 placed in the linear cavity 30 of the internal upright 15 of the semi-fixed opening 4. Conversely, the outer face 39 of the extension 38 the internal upright 15 of the semi-fixed opening 4 forms a bearing surface for the seal 31 placed in the linear cavity 30 of the internal upright 11 opening 3.

    Cette structure de fenêtre 1 à double ouvrant utilisant un profilé réversible permet de réduire à un le nombre de profilés employés pour la fabrication de la dite fenêtre 1, et par conséquent de réduire considérablement les coûts.This double opening window structure 1 using a reversible profile reduces the number of profiles used to manufacture the so-called window 1, and therefore significantly reduce costs.

    Comme dans le cas de l'ouvrant 3, les montants 14, 15 et les traverses 16, 17 sont associés perpendiculairement deux à deux vers leurs extrémités, suivant un plan incliné à 45° passant par un coin 42 du cadre, de sorte à former le cadre de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4.As in the case of the opening 3, the uprights 14, 15 and the crosspieces 16, 17 are associated perpendicularly two by two towards their ends, according to a 45 ° inclined plane passing through a corner 42 of the frame, so as to form the frame of the semi-fixed opening 4.

    L'assemblage s'effectue mécaniquement à l'aide d'équerres rigides.The assembly is carried out mechanically using rigid brackets.

    L'assemblage du montant extérieur 14 aux traverses 16, 17 est réalisé à l'aide de deux équerres 43 identiques à celles utilisées pour l'assemblage de l'ouvrant 3.The assembly of the external upright 14 to the crosspieces 16, 17 is carried out using of two brackets 43 identical to those used for the assembly of opening it 3.

    En revanche, le fait que le montant intérieur 15 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 est inversé par rapport aux traverses 16, 17 nécessite une opération supplémentaire d'usinage pour le montage du cadre semi-fixe et l'emploi d'un autre type d'équerre, dite « équerre d'angle semi-fixe » 50.On the other hand, the fact that the internal upright 15 of the semi-fixed opening 4 is inverted with respect to the crosspieces 16, 17 requires an operation additional machining for mounting the semi-fixed frame and using a another type of square, known as a “semi-fixed angle square” 50.

    La partie extrême des traverses 16, 17 destinée à être assemblée au montant intérieur 15 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4, ainsi que les parties extrêmes du dit montant intérieur 15 sont usinées, comme représenté sur les figures 8 et 9, afin de permettre l'assemblage de ces différents éléments de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4.The end part of the crosspieces 16, 17 intended to be assembled to the upright interior 15 of the semi-fixed leaf 4, as well as the end portions of said internal upright 15 are machined, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, so to allow the assembly of these different elements of the semi-fixed opening 4.

    Cet usinage induit l'apparition de cavités aux extrémités des profilés correspondants, cavités positionnées différemment de celles apparaissant lors d'une simple découpe à 45°, et qui ne pourront donc être obturées par l'équerre 43 lors de l'assemblage.This machining induces the appearance of cavities at the ends of the profiles corresponding, cavities positioned differently from those appearing during a simple cut at 45 °, and which cannot therefore be closed by bracket 43 during assembly.

    L'invention prévoit donc une équerre d'angle semi-fixe 50, illustrée sur la figure 10.The invention therefore provides a semi-fixed angle bracket 50, illustrated on the figure 10.

    L'équerre d'angle semi-fixe 50 comprend deux branches 51, 52, chacune comportant une pluralité d'ailes 51a, 52a destinées à être engagées dans les cavités du profilé constitutif d'une traverse 16, 17 ou du montant intérieur 15 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4.The semi-fixed angle bracket 50 comprises two branches 51, 52, each comprising a plurality of wings 51a, 52a intended to be engaged in the cavities of the profile constituting a crosspiece 16, 17 or the internal upright 15 of the semi-fixed leaf 4.

    L'équerre d'angle semi-fixe 50 comprend en outre une paroi sensiblement plane 53 formant un angle voisin de 45° avec chacune des branches 51, 52 de la dite équerre 50, et passant vers la partie extrême commune des deux branches 51, 52. Comme dans le cas de l'ouvrant 3, cette paroi 53 permet de combler le jeu j existant entre montant 15 et traverses 16, 17 au montage.The semi-fixed angle bracket 50 further comprises a wall substantially plane 53 forming an angle close to 45 ° with each of the branches 51, 52 of the so-called square 50, and passing towards the extreme common part of the two branches 51, 52. As in the case of the opening 3, this wall 53 allows fill the clearance j existing between upright 15 and crosspieces 16, 17 during assembly.

    Enfin, l'équerre d'angle semi-fixe 50 comprend deux parois sensiblement planes 54, 55 s'étendant depuis la partie extrême commune des deux branches 51, 52, chacune parallèlement à l'une des branches 51, 52 et à l'opposé de la dite branche 51, 52. Les parois 54, 55 sont destinées à obturer les cavités du profilé apparues suite à l'usinage précité.Finally, the semi-fixed angle bracket 50 comprises two substantially planar walls 54, 55 extending from the common end part of the two branches 51, 52, each parallel to one of the branches 51, 52 and opposite to the said branch 51, 52. The walls 54, 55 are intended to close the profile cavities appeared following the aforementioned machining.

    Le procédé d'assemblage de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4 est similaire à celui de l'ouvrant 3, moyennant le remplacement des équerres « standard» 43 par des équerres d'angle semi-fixe 50 aux parties extrêmes du montant intérieur 15 de l'ouvrant semi-fixe 4.The method of assembling the semi-fixed leaf 4 is similar to that of the opening 3, by replacing the “standard” brackets 43 with semi-fixed angle brackets 50 at the extreme parts of the internal upright 15 of the semi-fixed leaf 4.

    La figure 9 représente schématiquement le cadre ouvrant semi-fixe 4 une fois assemblé, ainsi que la position des équerres 43, 50 et des vis de fixation 48 et la section rabattue des profilés constitutifs des montants 14, 15 et des traverses 16, 17.Figure 9 schematically shows the semi-fixed opening frame 4 once assembled, as well as the position of the brackets 43, 50 and the fixing screws 48 and the folded section of the sections constituting the uprights 14, 15 and the crosspieces 16, 17.

    L'invention qui vient d'être décrite dans le cas particulier d'une fenêtre peut bien entendu s'appliquer à d'autres types d'ouvertures, telles que notamment une porte-fenêtre, dans laquelle le profilé utilisé est similaire, la partie saillante saillant toutefois davantage sur le côté du profilé, ou une porte, le panneau inséré dans la gorge du profilé pouvant par exemple être plein et non vitré.The invention which has just been described in the particular case of a window may well heard apply to other types of openings, such as in particular a French window, in which the profile used is similar, the projecting part projecting however more on the side of the profile, or a door, the panel inserted in the groove of the profile which can for example be full and not glazed.

    Par ailleurs, l'homme du métier comprendra que, dans le cas où l'on souhaite obtenir un centrage de la poignée de l'ouverture, il peut s'avérer nécessaire d'ajouter à l'ouvrant 3 un élément constitué d'un autre type de profilé. Ce profilé supplémentaire n'est qu'optionnel, et la structure même de l'ouverture reste quant à elle réalisée à partir d'un seul profilé.Furthermore, those skilled in the art will understand that, in the case where it is desired obtain a centering of the opening handle, it may be necessary to add to the opening 3 an element consisting of another type of profile. This profile additional is only optional, and the very structure of the opening remains as for it produced from a single profile.

    Enfin, bien que l'invention ait été décrite dans le cas d'une réalisation particulière d'un ouvrant rectangulaire, elle peut également s'appliquer à d'autres formes d'ouvrants, en particulier des ouvrants trapézoïdaux. Dans ce dernier cas, les angles entre montants et traverses, et donc les angles des équerres utilisées, sont différents de 45°, mais le principe d'assemblage reste le même.Finally, although the invention has been described in the case of an embodiment particular of a rectangular opening, it can also be applied to other forms of openings, in particular trapezoidal openings. In this last case, the angles between uprights and crosspieces, and therefore the angles of brackets used, are different from 45 °, but the principle of assembly remains the even.
