Definitions

  • the invention relates to a window or a door with a frame made of a polymeric material, the frame having at least one hollow chamber inside, one in the frame insertable surface support element, the end face of the surface support element at least one receiving space is arranged opposite one another.
  • Windows or doors are known to be manufactured in such a way that the glazing in inserted a frame, with a support of the insert on the frame a block is made and with the help of an insertable into the frame Glazing bead the glazing is clamped in the frame.
  • the glazing is over here Seals made of elastic materials within the frame.
  • a disadvantage of this known design is, however, that in particular for the production of very resistant Frame used on large-format profile cross-sections for the production of the frame must become. This adversely affects the manufacturing costs of such windows or doors, whereby in addition to the unfavorable visual impression when installed in the corresponding Buildings also a much more complex and expensive assembly and fastening technology is required.
  • a generic window or a door is known, with a frame based on plastic and a glazing inserted into the frame, the glazing being connected to the frame on one side in its edge area by means of an adhesive layer.
  • This window or door is intended to enable a reliable connection of the glazing to the frame by means of an adhesive layer, so that the glazing can also be securely fixed in the frame in the long term.
  • a support element made of a material that can be glued to the glazing or the frame by means of the adhesive layer is provided in order to create the connection between the glazing and the frame brought about by the adhesive layer and that the support element is mechanically attached to the frame or the glazing on the one hand attachable and on the other hand can be glued to the glazing or the frame by means of the adhesive layer.
  • a disadvantage of this known window or door is that an additional costly component has to be introduced into the window or door with the carrier element, which causes not only the purchase and storage costs but also an additional assembly effort.
  • a further disadvantage is seen in the fact that this carrier element is made of a metallic material that has a correspondingly negative influence on the thermal insulation properties of the windows or the door.
  • the frame for the window or the door accordingly must be dimensioned over a large area to ensure an optimal adhesive surface on the outside To be able to realize the edge of the glazing, although it is unavoidable, nevertheless in the Hollow chambers of the frame profile to introduce additional stiffening elements.
  • These stiffening elements which are generally metallic reinforcements, effect on frames A corresponding stabilization of the window or the, especially of polymeric materials Door and a reduction in weight-related deflections.
  • the invention proposes that the receiving space between the surface support element and the frame has an adhesive that the surface support member is materially and non-positively connected to the frame via its end face, the receiving space is dimensioned so that the forces acting on the surface support element are direct are transferable to the frame.
  • the surface support element takes on the stiffening effect of the frame. hereby can do without metal reinforcements in the hollow chambers of the frame so that structural weaknesses in the frame are eliminated. By the Omission of the metallic reinforcement in particular simplifies the area the window production.
  • the invention has at least one end face of the surface support element arranged opposite, which makes it possible to bring the adhesive into already assembled windows or doors and thus a material and to realize a positive connection between the surface support element and the frame.
  • the receiving space has a corrugation running approximately parallel to the end face of the surface support element.
  • This corrugation which can be formed both in the longitudinal direction to the end face of the surface support element and in the transverse direction to the end face of the surface support element, enables an optimal distribution of the adhesive in the receiving space over the width of the window or door.
  • the invention thus allows various types of surface support elements to be connected to the frame in a material and non-positive manner. Glass panes, insulating glass elements or panels made of wood, wood-like materials and the like have proven particularly advantageous here.
  • the adhesive introduced into the receiving space in has about the same basic chemical structure as the frame, so that an optimal Liability and bonding is achievable.
  • the adhesive introduced into the receiving space also advantageously has heat and / or sound-insulating properties, so that optimal thermal insulation can be achieved in the critical rebate area of the window or door and heat convection is reduced.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the adhesive is arranged all around on the end face of the surface support element and is advantageously provided with a protective film which can only be released when the window or door is installed and which activates the adhesive accordingly.
  • the adhesive is arranged on the side of the frame opposite the end face of the surface support element. This adhesive can also have a protective film on its surface, which can be removed before the surface support element is installed and which activates the adhesive. It is also seen as an advantage that the adhesive can be processed thermoplastically and can therefore already be attached by the manufacturer to the appropriate place and in the appropriate dimensions during the manufacture of the frame.
  • FIG. 1 a sectional view of the window according to the invention is shown, which consists of there is a frame 1 and a frame 2.
  • the frames 1,2 have different inside Hollow chambers 12, 22, in which, for example, additional insulation material or fitting parts can be brought in.
  • the frame 1 is connected to the frame 2 via the seal 21.
  • the surface support element 3 can be seen, which in this embodiment is an insulating glass element consisting of two interconnected panes.
  • a receiving space 10 can be seen in which the adhesive 4 is introduced.
  • a further receiving space 11 can be seen, in the one Adhesive 41 is introduced.
  • this adhesive 41 serves to support the surface 3 also fix in frame 1 and also has sealing properties because the otherwise usually positioned in the known prior art seal made of an elastomer Material is no longer required.
  • a so-called glass strip 6 is attached, which takes the receiving space 10 to the interior seals off.
  • the receiving space 10 has an approximately parallel to the end face 30 of the surface support element 3 extending corrugation 18, which on the one hand is optimal Distribution of the adhesive 4 allows and on the other hand, the adhesion between the end face 30 of the surface support element 3 and the frame 1 by increasing the surface improved.
  • Another advantage of the invention Window is seen in the fact that the material and frictional connection between the Face 30 of the surface support element 3 and the frame 1, the weight of the invention Window can be drastically reduced accordingly.
  • the adhesive used 4 there is also no additional exposure to weathering or in the receiving space 10 Humidification exposed, so that the material and non-positive bond between the front 30 of the surface support element 3 and the frame 1 is permanently stable.
  • Another advantage of the window according to the invention consists in that in the known prior art Blocking used in the assembly of windows or doors in the area between the front 30 of the surface support element 3 and the frame 1 can be omitted, since these for load transfer used blocks are unnecessary by introducing the adhesive 4.
  • FIG. 2 shows a sectional view through a further window according to the invention.
  • This window consists of the frame 1 and the frame 2, which are sealed together are connectable.
  • the frame 2 has a hollow chamber 22, in this embodiment a structure 71 is introduced, which roughly corresponds to the inner contour of the hollow chamber 22 adapts.
  • This structure 71 can be made of a foamed polymeric material, for example consist of or from a ceramic material.
  • a surface support element 3 is introduced, which in this embodiment is an insulating glass element with 3 interconnected panes. Opposite the outside Disc 31 of the surface support element 3, a groove 11 is arranged in the frame 1, which in is approximately L-shaped.
  • an adhesive 41 is introduced the disc 31 of the surface support element 3 connects to the frame 1 and at the same time has sealing properties, so that when it starts raining the water over the Disc 31 of the surface support element 3, the adhesive 41 over the frame 1 and the frame 2 can run to corresponding water intake devices.
  • the surface support element 3 is materially and non-positively connected to the frame via the end face 30 1 connected.
  • the inner pane 32 of the surface support element 3 is connected via a glass strip 6 the frame 1 sealingly connected.
  • the receiving space 10 one arranged opposite the end face 30 of the surface support element 3 Opening 16 on.
  • This opening 16 communicates with a further opening 15 via the hollow chamber 12 of the frame 1.
  • the window according to the invention in this embodiment was manufactured in such a way that the adhesive 41 was already extruded into the groove 11 of the frame 1 and was manufactured with a protective film. When mounting the surface support element 3 was the protective film, not shown, from that of the disc 31 of the surface support element 3 opposite side of the adhesive 41 peeled off and the surface support element 3 positioned in frame 1.
  • the adhesive 4 which in this embodiment is approximately has the same basic chemical structure as the frame 1, leads to a material and non-positive connection of the end face 30 of the surface support element 3 to the frame 1.
  • a structure 7 is introduced in the hollow chamber 12 of the frame 1, which is selectively opened between the openings 15, 16 of the frame 1.
  • this structure 7 also simultaneously leads to a further stabilization of the frame 1. It is also part of the invention that a window or door produced in this way can also be produced without the glass strip 6 previously used, since through the This additional component can be saved by a material and non-positive connection between the end face 30 of the surface support element 3 and the frame 1. This material and non-positive connection between the end face 30 of the surface support element 3 and the frame 1 makes it possible to realize windows with a significantly lower installation height, which nevertheless have the same stability and strength properties as those from the known prior art.
  • the adhesive 4 can already be applied all around on the end face 30 of the surface support element 3, so that the installation of the window or the door can be carried out significantly faster, cleaner and more cost-effectively.
