Definitions

  • the invention relates to a casement for Double casement window, consisting of an opening casement and a faceplate or passive leaf, each Sash frame preferably a generally rectangular one Has shape and is provided with glazing and the sash of the faceplate or passive leaf has a faceplate profile on the outside of the building forms a stop for the opening wing, so that when Open the double casement window or Inactive leaf either remains in the closed state or opened after the opening wing, whereby also the faceplate profile on an insulation element on Casement is connected.
  • Such a sash is for example from the WO 00/08289 or FR-A-2 753 227 are known.
  • the thermal insulation between the Face plate profile and the sash frame of the passive leaf provided insulation strip complicates the assembly of the Frame.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object To further develop sash frames of the type mentioned at the beginning, that the assembly is simplified and at the same time a adequate thermal insulation is ensured.
  • the insulation element is designed as a profile strip and a has the first receiving groove, the form fit on a attached to the faceplate protruding connecting web and firmly on this by means of a fastening member can be connected, and that the insulating element is a second Location groove for one on the profile element of the casement has protruding connecting web and that Profile element also by means of a fastener is firmly connectable to the insulation element.
  • the advantage achieved by the invention is essential in that the insulation element first on the Put on the faceplate profile and the rest with this can be cut together to length. In the Assembly then form the faceplate profile and that Insulation element already a unit, so that the missing Profile element with its connecting web in it Insulated element inserted and the final fastening can be made by means of the fasteners.
  • a further simplification of the assembly will achieved in that the connecting web of Casement between the connecting web of the Face plate profile and the glazing of the casement is arranged.
  • the screw initially only so far screw in that the connecting web of the faceplate profile is fixed in the insulation element.
  • the screw is screwed in until finally they also connect the jetty in the associated groove of the insulation element fixed.
  • Insulating element is a hollow chamber with a rectangular cross section on the two opposite sides of the grooves arranged for the connecting web or the connecting web are.
  • the insulating element on its the Face plate profile adjacent side with at least one Terminal strip is provided in an undercut Groove of the faceplate profile snaps into place.
  • the insulating element can advantageously be a Opening wing extending stop bar for have a sealing strip provided on the opening sash, creating a further seal between the Opening wing and the faceplate or passive leaf reached becomes.
  • connection between the insulation element and to give the profile element increased strength on the profile element parallel to the connecting bridge Support strip can be arranged on which the insulation element supported with two baseboards.
  • the Sash frames 1.1.2.1 are each with glazing 3 Mistake.
  • the sash 2.1 of the faceplate or inactive leaf 2 has on the outside of the building, a faceplate profile 4, one Stop for the opening wing 1 forms.
  • the Double casement window i.e. first of the opening casement 1
  • the opening wing 1 can also be opened.
  • the Cullet 2 is therefore usually only as a rotary wing trained while the opening wing 1 as a rotary wing or can also be designed as a rotating / tilting wing.
  • the faceplate profile 4 is for thermal insulation Insulating element 5 connected to the casement. That’s it Insulating element 5 designed in detail as a profile strip and provided with a first receiving groove 6, the under Form fit on a protruding on the faceplate 4 Connection web 7 placed and on this by means of a Fastening member 8 is firmly connected.
  • the insulation element 5 also has a second receiving groove 9 for one on the profile element of the casement 2.1 protruding connecting web 10, which Profile element also by means of a Fastening member 8 can be firmly connected to the insulating element 5 is.
  • the connecting web 10 of the casement 2.1 is between the connecting web 7 of the faceplate 4 on the one hand and the glazing 3 of the casement 2.1 on the other hand arranged so that when screwing the screw 8 first the connecting web 7 of the faceplate 4 in the assigned groove of the insulating element 5 and then the Connecting web 10 of the profile element 2.1 is fixed.
  • the insulation element 5 has to further improve the Thermal insulation is a rectangular hollow chamber 11 in cross section on the two opposite sides of the grooves for the connecting web 10 or the connecting web 7 are arranged.
  • the insulation element 5 also has a Opening sash 1 extending stop bar 14th for a sealing strip 15 provided on the opening leaf 1 on, which creates a seal in the central area becomes.
  • the profile element 2.1 is shown in the Form only provided at the middle joint; the other three Sides of the sash 2 correspond in their Profile shape of the opening wing 1.
