  • this fastening system is more cost-effective and is particularly advantageous in terms of thermal or acoustic insulation and the tightness of insulating glass.
  • the almost punctiform application of the holding forces to the disks and the problems when adjusting the position of adjacent disks are disadvantageous, since the holder always holds and adjusts two disks at the same time, which necessitates precise positioning of the holders.
  • DE 195 42 040 AI describes a glass pane which has a groove or recess on its end face which serves to arrange glass panes arranged next to one another in a sealing manner and at the same time to ensure that the glass panes are fixed to a substructure.
  • the dimensions of the grooves or recesses are formed by milling, grinding or sawing such that the groove is made with a depth of at least one third of the thickness of the glass pane.
  • a rounded groove can also be produced.

  • the facade outer surface is formed by glass panes, each of which has holding rails glued to their vertical inner edges. These holding rails can be positively connected to support profiles.
  • the edges of the glass panes are chamfered towards the outside in order to close the joint thus formed by form-fitting anchoring bodies.
  • the support profiles are glued behind the glass panes in both a vertical and a horizontal orientation. It is not possible to replace individual glass panes.
  • EP 0 655 543 B1 discloses the mechanical fastening of a glass pane, which is held in a punctiform manner, wherein in the case of single glazing holes are drilled inside the glass panes, which are countered by a holding element to be inserted from the outside, which has a conical collar, against an inner one flat holding element is fixed. The same procedure is followed for the insulating glass panes, in which bores are also provided within the glass panes.
  • Glass panes which are provided with grooves on their end faces of the edges and are assembled to form flat facades or corners and edges, can be found in US Pat. No. 3,672,107 A. Rigid profiles that engage in the grooves are used to hold the glass panes. The profile formations that capture the grooves are continuously backed with a permanently elastic material. Since this is a structure with rigid elements, it is not possible to replace individual glass panes. In addition, the glass panes can be damaged in the case of larger surfaces by thermal stresses or wind loads.

The interaction of the holder and the disk is essentially based on the holder having a head which can be rotated about an axis essentially normal to the disk plane and has a shape which deviates from the circular shape, so that it depends on the angular position of the head interacts with the profiled edge of the pane and thus holds the pane or releases it, so that the pane can be mounted, removed or exchanged.
Dieses Befestigungssystem ist im Vergleich zu anderen Systemen, bei denen die Scheiben durchlocht werden müssen, kostengünstiger und im Hinblick auf die thermische bzw. akustische Isolierung sowie die Dichtheit speziell von Isoliergläsern vorteilhaft. Nachteilig ist aber die nahezu punktförmige Aufbringung der Haltekräfte auf die Scheiben und die Pro- bleme beim Justieren der Position benachbarter Scheiben, da ja der Halter immer zwei Scheiben gleichzeitig hält und justiert, was eine genaue Positionierung der Halter notwendig macht.Compared to other systems in which the panes have to be perforated, this fastening system is more cost-effective and is particularly advantageous in terms of thermal or acoustic insulation and the tightness of insulating glass. However, the almost punctiform application of the holding forces to the disks and the problems when adjusting the position of adjacent disks are disadvantageous, since the holder always holds and adjusts two disks at the same time, which necessitates precise positioning of the holders.
Als weiterer Stand der Technik kann angesehen werden:Another state of the art can be considered:
In der DE 195 42 040 AI wird eine Glasscheibe beschrieben, die an ihrer Stirnseite eine Nut oder Ausnehmung aufweist, die dazu dient, nebeneinander angeordnete Glasscheiben untereinander dichtend anzuordnen und gleichzeitig eine Festlegung der Glasscheiben an einer Unterkonstruktion zu gewährleisten. Dabei werden die Nuten bzw. Ausnehmungen durch Fräßen, Schleifen oder Sägen in ihren Abmaßen so ausgebildet, dass die Nut mit einer Tiefe von wenigstens einem Drittel der Dicke der Glasscheibe ausgeführt wird. Ne- ben einer kantigen Ausführung kann auch eine verrundet ausgebildete Nut hergestellt werden. In die Nut wird bei der Montage eine Dichtung, Führung oder Halterung über die gesamte Länge und Breite der Scheibe eingelegt. Als Dichtungsmaterial können dabei Gummidichtungen, Bürstendichtungen, Silikondichtungen oder dergleichen verwendet werden.DE 195 42 040 AI describes a glass pane which has a groove or recess on its end face which serves to arrange glass panes arranged next to one another in a sealing manner and at the same time to ensure that the glass panes are fixed to a substructure. The dimensions of the grooves or recesses are formed by milling, grinding or sawing such that the groove is made with a depth of at least one third of the thickness of the glass pane. In addition to an angular design, a rounded groove can also be produced. A seal, guide or bracket is placed in the groove during assembly entire length and width of the disc inserted. Rubber seals, brush seals, silicone seals or the like can be used as the sealing material.
Einen Bausatz für eine Glasfassade offenbart die EP 0 410 993 Bl. Die Fassadenaußenflä- ehe wird durch Glasscheiben gebildet, die an ihren senkrechten inneren Rändern jeweils angeklebte Halteschienen aufweisen. Diese Halteschienen sind mit Tragprofilen formschlüssig verbindbar. Die Glasscheiben sind an ihren Kanten nach außen hin angeschrägt, um die so gebildete Fuge durch formschlüssige Verankerungskörper zu verschließen. Bei diesem System sind die Tragprofile sowohl in vertikaler als auch in horizontaler Ausrich- tung hinter den Glasscheiben verklebt angebracht. Ein Auswechseln einzelner Glasscheiben ist nicht möglich.EP 0 410 993 B1 discloses a kit for a glass facade. The facade outer surface is formed by glass panes, each of which has holding rails glued to their vertical inner edges. These holding rails can be positively connected to support profiles. The edges of the glass panes are chamfered towards the outside in order to close the joint thus formed by form-fitting anchoring bodies. In this system, the support profiles are glued behind the glass panes in both a vertical and a horizontal orientation. It is not possible to replace individual glass panes.
Die mechanische Befestigung einer Glasscheibe, die punktförmig gehalten wird, offenbart die EP 0 655 543 Bl, wobei bei Einfachverglasungen Bohrungen innerhalb der Glasscheiben eingebracht sind, die durch ein von außen einzusetzendes Halteelement, das einen ko- nischen Kragen aufweist, gegen ein von innen gegenzuziehendes flächiges Halteelement fixiert wird. Ebenso wird bei den Isolierglasscheiben verfahren, bei denen ebenfalls Bohrungen innerhalb der Glasscheiben vorhanden sind.EP 0 655 543 B1 discloses the mechanical fastening of a glass pane, which is held in a punctiform manner, wherein in the case of single glazing holes are drilled inside the glass panes, which are countered by a holding element to be inserted from the outside, which has a conical collar, against an inner one flat holding element is fixed. The same procedure is followed for the insulating glass panes, in which bores are also provided within the glass panes.
Glasscheiben, die an ihren Stirnseiten der Kanten mit Nuten versehen sind, und zu flächigen Fassaden bzw. Ecken und Kanten zusammengesetzt sind, sind der US 3,672,107 A zu entnehmen. Zur Halterung der Glasscheiben werden starre Profile verwendet, die in die Nuten eingreifen. Die Profilausbildungen, die die Nuten erfassen, sind durchgehend mit einem dauerelastischen Material hinterlegt. Da es sich hierbei um einen Aufbau mit starren Elementen handelt, ist das Auswechseln einzelner Glasscheiben nicht möglich, darüber hinaus kann es bei größeren Flächen durch auftretende Wärmespannungen bzw. Windla- sten zu Beschädigungen der Glasscheiben kommen.Glass panes, which are provided with grooves on their end faces of the edges and are assembled to form flat facades or corners and edges, can be found in US Pat. No. 3,672,107 A. Rigid profiles that engage in the grooves are used to hold the glass panes. The profile formations that capture the grooves are continuously backed with a permanently elastic material. Since this is a structure with rigid elements, it is not possible to replace individual glass panes. In addition, the glass panes can be damaged in the case of larger surfaces by thermal stresses or wind loads.
Eine Plattenkonstruktion für die Ausgestaltung einer Fassade kann der EP 0 319 695 AI entnommen werden. Dabei werden die Glasscheiben, hier insbesondere Isolierglasscheiben, von einer nicht in Erscheinung tretenden Stützkonstruktion, die mit den Glasscheiben durch Verkleben kraft- und formschlüssig verbunden ist, gehalten. Darüber hinaus ist eine Absturzsicherung vorhanden, die durch ein zusätzliches Profil gebildet wird. Dabei kann dieses Profil zum einen in Nuten, Ausfräsungen oder Anfasungen der Glasscheiben eingreifen. In gleicher Art und Weise offenbart die EP 0 280 832 AI eine Konstruktion für Fassaden oder Dächer, bei der ebenfalls die Glasscheiben durch eine Verklebung mit Profilen hinter den Glasscheiben und damit Halterung erreicht wird. Auch hier ist beim Versagen der Klebeverbindung eine Absturzsicherung vorhanden, die so ausgebildet ist, dass wie bei der EP 0 319 695 AI die Glasscheiben an ihren Randbereich Nuten aufweisen, in die ein Absturzprofil eingesetzt wird.A plate construction for the design of a facade can be found in EP 0 319 695 AI. The glass panes, here in particular insulating glass panes, are held by a support structure that does not appear, which is connected to the glass panes in a non-positive and positive manner by gluing. There is also a fall protection system that is formed by an additional profile. On the one hand, this profile can engage in grooves, millings or chamfers on the glass panes. In the same way, EP 0 280 832 AI discloses a construction for facades or roofs, in which the glass panes are also achieved by gluing with profiles behind the glass panes and thus holding. Here too, if the adhesive connection fails, there is a fall protection device which is designed such that, as in EP 0 319 695 AI, the glass panes have grooves on their edge region into which a fall profile is inserted.
Die Ausführung einer Außenwand bzw. einer Dachverglasung in Isolierglas gibt die DE 3 439 436 AI wieder, bei der die Isolierglasscheiben durch Halter, die zwischen den Scheiben angeordnet sind, gehalten werden. Dabei wird zwischen den Isolierglasscheiben ein zusätzliches Profil eingesetzt, in welches der Kopf eines Halters, der Flansche beinhaltet, eingesetzt wird. Der Halter ist dabei so gestaltet, dass er einen Ansatz hat, der durch eine Drehbewegung mit einem hinter den Glasscheiben befindlichen Profil in Eingriff gebracht werden kann. Die Ränder der Isolierglasscheiben sind glatt ausgeführt, und die zwischen den Isolierglasscheiben befindliche Fuge wird durch eine dauerelastische Masse ver- schlössen.The execution of an outer wall or a roof glazing in insulating glass is given by DE 3 439 436 AI, in which the insulating glass panes are held by holders which are arranged between the panes. An additional profile is inserted between the insulating glass panes, in which the head of a holder that contains flanges is inserted. The holder is designed so that it has an approach that can be brought into engagement with a profile located behind the glass panes by a rotary movement. The edges of the insulating glass panes are smooth and the joint between the insulating glass panes is closed by a permanently elastic compound.
Bei Glasfassaden sind Punkthalter für die verwendeten Glasplatten bekannt, die mit Abstand vom Plattenrand die Glasplatte entsprechend durchgreifen und mit einer davor oder dahinter liegenden Tragkonstruktion verbunden sind. Für eine solche Befestigungsart muss die Glasplatte durchbohrt werden. Dieses ist schon bei Einfachglasscheiben durch die er- höhte Bruchgefahr nachteilig, bei Isolierglasscheiben resultiert durch die Bohrungen eine erhebliche Beeinträchtigung der bei Dichtheit technisch möglichen sehr guten Wärmedämmung.In the case of glass facades, point holders for the glass plates used are known, which reach through the glass plate at a distance from the edge of the plate and are connected to a supporting structure located in front or behind. The glass plate must be drilled for such a type of fastening. Even with single glass panes, this is disadvantageous due to the increased risk of breakage. With insulating glass panes, the bores result in a considerable impairment of the very good thermal insulation that is technically possible with tightness.
Es sind aus den genannten Gründen auch Glasfassaden bekannt, bei denen die Platten randseitig durch Profilschienen gefasst und mittels dieser Schienen gehalten sind. So ist beispielsweise aus der DE 3 734 576 AI bekannt, dass die Ränder winkelförmige Tragleisten aufgeklebt bekommen. Dabei weisen die Tragleisten innenseitige Kupplungsstege zum Angreifen von Klemmspannern auf. Diese Plattenhalterung mittels angeklebter Halteschienen ohne formschlüssige Sicherung der Glasscheiben bringt ein Gefahrenpotential mit sich, da das Langzeitverhalten von Klebungen unter den gegebenen Umweltbedingungen oft nicht bekannt ist. Infolgedessen werden derartige Glasfassaden ohne formschlüssige, mechanische Sicherung im Allgemeinen behördlich nicht genehmigt. Die Erfindung hat das Ziel, eine Befestigung für scheibenförmige Wandelemente der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, insbesondere für einfache Glasscheiben und besonders auch für Isolierglasscheiben, das die genannten Nachteile nicht aufweist, sondern eine zuverlässige Positionierung und Fixierung der Scheiben auf einfache Weise ermöglicht. In einer Ausgestaltung soll es auch möglich sein, benachbarte Scheiben nicht miteinander fluchtend, sondern im Winkel zueinander zu positionieren und zu halten, das insbesondere von Architekten immer wieder gefordert wird und heute nur mit hohem Aufwand machbar ist.For the reasons mentioned, glass facades are also known in which the plates are gripped by profiled rails on the edge and held by means of these rails. For example, it is known from DE 3 734 576 AI that the edges are given angular support strips. The support strips have coupling webs on the inside for engaging clamping clamps. This plate holder by means of glued-on holding rails without form-fitting securing of the glass panes entails a risk potential, since the long-term behavior of bonds under the given environmental conditions is often unknown. As a result, glass facades of this type are generally not approved by the authorities without positive mechanical locking. The object of the invention is to provide a fastening for disk-shaped wall elements of the type mentioned at the outset, in particular for simple glass panes and in particular also for insulating glass panes, which does not have the disadvantages mentioned, but rather enables reliable positioning and fixing of the panes in a simple manner. In one embodiment, it should also be possible to position and hold adjacent panes not in alignment with one another, but rather at an angle to one another, which is repeatedly required, in particular, by architects and can only be done today with great effort.
Erfindungsgemäß werden diese Ziele dadurch erreicht, dass der Halter einen Zentralteil und zumindest zwei Scheibenhalter aufweist, die jeweils eine der dem Halter zugeordneten Scheiben im Bereich von deren Rand kontaktieren und dass zumindest einer der Scheibenhalter bezüglich des Zentralteiles unabhängig vom anderen verschieblich und an jeder Stelle des Verschiebeweges fixierbar ist.According to the invention, these objectives are achieved in that the holder has a central part and at least two disc holders, each of which contacts one of the discs assigned to the holder in the region of the edge thereof, and that at least one of the disc holders can be displaced with respect to the central part independently of the other and at any point on the Displacement is fixable.
Auf diese Weise erreicht man, dass die Scheibenhalter mit der Scheibe eine Kontaktfläche haben können, die deutlich größer ist als es beim Stand der Technik der Fall ist und man erreicht weiters, dass jede Scheibe für sich befestigt wird, da ja bei jedem Halter für jede der beiden zugeordneten Scheiben ein eigener Scheibenhalter vorhanden ist, der unabhängig von anderen funktioniert und festgelegt werden kann. Darüberhinaus können dadurch die bei der Herstellung der Scheibe unvermeidlichen Toleranzen ausgeglichen werden. Schließlich ist dies auch die Voraussetzung dafür, dass in einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung die Montage zueinander nicht fluchtender Scheiben möglich ist, es besteht in diesem Fall erfindungsgemäß der Zentralteil aus einem wandfesten Teil, in dem zwei Zwischenteile um eine gemeinsame Achse verdrehbar angeordnet und fixierbar sind, wobei die Scheibenhalter bezüglich dieser Zwischenteile entlang von Keilflächen verschieblich sind. Die Erfindung wird im folgenden an Hand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Dabei zeigt die Fig. 1 eine erste erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform in einer Art Explosionsdarstellung, die Fig. 2 die Situation am Eckpunkt vierer zusammenstoßender Scheiben, die Fig. 3 und 4 eine zweite erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform in zwei unterschiedlichen Positionen und die Fig. 5 und 6 eine dritte Ausführungsform der Erfindung, die Fig. 7 und 8 Varianten von Haltern gemäß Fig. 5 für unterschiedliche Scheibenstärken in Ansichten gemäß den Fig. 3 und 4, die Fig. 9 einen Montagevorgang, die Fig. 10 und 11 eine bevorzugte Variante der Erfindung. die Fig. 12 ein Detail und die Fig. 13 eine andere Ausführungsform der Grundidee der Erfindung.In this way, it is achieved that the disc holder can have a contact surface with the disc that is significantly larger than is the case in the prior art, and it is also achieved that each disc is fastened separately, since each holder for each the two assigned discs has its own disc holder, which works independently of others and can be fixed. In addition, the tolerances that are unavoidable in the manufacture of the disc can be compensated. Finally, this is also the prerequisite for the fact that in one embodiment of the invention it is possible to install disks that are not aligned with one another. In this case, according to the invention, the central part consists of a wall-fixed part in which two intermediate parts can be rotated about a common axis and can be fixed, the disc holder being displaceable along wedge surfaces with respect to these intermediate parts. The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing. 1 shows a first embodiment according to the invention in a kind of exploded view, FIG. 2 shows the situation at the corner of four colliding disks, FIGS. 3 and 4 show a second embodiment according to the invention in two different positions, and FIGS. 5 and 6 show a third Embodiment of the invention, FIGS. 7 and 8 variants of holders according to FIG. 5 for different pane thicknesses in views according to FIGS. 3 and 4, FIG. 9 an assembly process, FIGS. 10 and 11 a preferred variant of the invention. 12 shows a detail and FIG. 13 shows another embodiment of the basic idea of the invention.
In Fig. 1 ist rein schematisch eine erste Ausfuhrungsform der Erfindung dargestellt. Ein an einer Tragkonstruktion (Mauerwerk, Träger od. ähnl.) passend fixierter Halter 1 trägt einen Zentralteil 2, auf dem ein oberer und ein unterer Scheibenhalter 3 entlang einer schrägen Fläche 4 verschieblich aufgesetzt sind. Um hier eine Justierbarkeit zu erreichen, sind Gegenflächen 5 der schrägen Flächen 4 nicht fest am Zentralteil 2 montiert, sondern auf Ein- satzteilen 6 vorgesehen, die in Ausnehmungen 7 des Zentralteiles 2 mittels Stellschrauben 8 einzeln und unabhängig voneinander verschoben werden können, wodurch die Scheiben- halter 3 vom Zentralteil 2 weggedrückt oder näher an ihn herangeholt werden. Dieses Heranholen besorgen O-Ringe oder Spiralfedern 9, die über passende Fortsätze 10 der Scheibenhalter 3 laufen. Um die minimalen Änderungen bei der thermischen Ausdehnung od.dergl. auszugleichen und die Ränder der Scheiben 11 zu schonen, sind elastische Einlageblätter 12 zwischen den scheibenseitigen Oberflächen der Scheibenhalter 3 und den Rändern 13 der Scheiben 11 eingelegt.In Fig. 1, a first embodiment of the invention is shown purely schematically. A suitably fixed holder 1 on a supporting structure (masonry, support or the like) carries a central part 2, on which an upper and a lower pane holder 3 are slidably mounted along an inclined surface 4. In order to achieve adjustability here, counter surfaces 5 of the inclined surfaces 4 are not fixedly mounted on the central part 2, but are provided on insert parts 6, which can be displaced individually and independently of one another in recesses 7 of the central part 2 by means of set screws 8, as a result of which the disks - Holders 3 pushed away from the central part 2 or brought closer to it. This approach is provided by O-rings or coil springs 9, which run over suitable extensions 10 of the disk holder 3. To the minimum changes in thermal expansion or the like. to compensate and protect the edges of the discs 11, elastic insert sheets 12 are inserted between the disc-side surfaces of the disc holder 3 and the edges 13 of the discs 11.
Wenn nun beispielsweise die untere der beiden dargestellten Scheiben 11 montiert werden soll, so ist ursprünglich die Stellschraube 8 des zugehörigen unteren Scheibenhalters 3 soweit herausgeschraubt, dass der Einsatzteil 6 seine innerste (gesehen vom Gebäude) Lage einnimmt und durch die O-Ringe 9 der untere Scheibenhalter 3 in seine oberste Lage gezo- gen ist, in der er am Zentralteil anliegt oder jedenfalls die dem Zentralteil 2 engst benachbarte Lage einnimmt. In dieser Position ist seine Höhenerstreckung so gering, dass es möglich ist, die Scheibe 11 an ihre Stelle zu bringen, beispielsweise mittels eines passenden Kranes od.dgl. und üblicherweise mit Saugnäpfen od.ähnl. Montagehilfen für Glasscheiben oder Steinplatten od.dgl.. Die Scheibe 11 wird in der gewünschten Lage justiert, auf bekannte Weise, beispielsweise mittels Klötzen od.dgl. und sodann wird die zugehörige Stellschraube 8 angezogen, der Einsatzteil 6 wird so mittels der Gegenfläche 5 gegen die schräge Fläche 4 des unteren Scheibenhalters 3 gepreßt und drückt so den Scheiben- halter 3 nach unten, bis er an den Rand 13 der Scheibe 11 stößt und diese mit der vorbestimmten Kraft fixiert und hält.If, for example, the lower of the two disks 11 shown is to be mounted, the set screw 8 of the associated lower disk holder 3 is originally unscrewed so far that the insert part 6 assumes its innermost position (as seen from the building) and through the O-rings 9 the lower one Disk holder 3 is pulled into its uppermost position, in which it rests on the central part or in any case assumes the position that is closest to the central part 2. In this position, its height is so small that it is possible to bring the disk 11 in its place, for example by means of a suitable crane or the like. and usually with suction cups or similar. Assembly aids for glass panes or stone slabs or the like. The disk 11 is adjusted in the desired position in a known manner, for example by means of blocks or the like. and then the associated set screw 8 is tightened, the insert part 6 is pressed by means of the counter surface 5 against the inclined surface 4 of the lower disc holder 3 and thus presses the disc holder 3 down until it hits the edge 13 of the disc 11 and fixes and holds it with the predetermined force.
Es ist unmittelbar ersichtlich, dass der obere Scheibenhalter 3 während des gesamten Vorganges bewegungslos bleibt und völlig unabhängig vom unteren Scheibenhalter 3 in der Folge nach dem Anbringen der oberen Scheibe 11 aktiviert und gegen den Rand dieser Scheibe gedrückt wird.It is immediately apparent that the upper pane holder 3 remains motionless during the entire process and is activated completely independently of the lower pane holder 3 after the upper pane 11 has been attached and is pressed against the edge of this pane.
Die Fig. 1, um 90° gedreht, gibt ein Bild der Situation beim Halten zweier Scheiben im Bereich einer vertikalen Fuge. Man erkennt unmittelbar,- dass der erfmdungsgemäße Scheibenhalter für Fugen in beliebiger Richtung verwendet werden kann. Die Fig. 2 stellt die Situation im Bereich des Zusammenstoßes vierer Scheiben dar, man erkennt, dass jede einzelne Scheibe von ihren Haltern freigegeben und sodann entnommen werden kann, ohne dass dies die benachbarten Scheiben in irgendeiner Weise tangieren würde. Wenn auch beim Stand der Technik durch das Verdrehen des pilzförmigen Kopfes des Halters ein Freigeben einer Scheibe möglich war, so wurde doch dadurch auch die je- weils benachbarte Scheibe in ihrer Lage, Halterung, Fixierung und Justierung beeinträchtigt, da sich ja der pilzförmige Kopf auch entlang des Randes dieser benachbarten Scheibe bewegte.1, rotated by 90 °, gives an image of the situation when two panes are held in the region of a vertical joint. It can be seen immediately that the pane holder according to the invention can be used for joints in any direction. FIG. 2 shows the situation in the area of the collision of four disks, it can be seen that each individual disk can be released from its holders and then removed without this affecting the adjacent disks in any way. Even if in the prior art it was possible to release a disk by rotating the mushroom-shaped head of the holder, the position, mounting, fixing and adjustment of the adjacent disk was also impaired, since the mushroom-shaped head also changed moved along the edge of this adjacent disc.
Die Fig. 3 stellt eine Variante der Erfindung dar, bei der die Keilfläche nicht im wesentlichen normal zur Scheibenebene bewegt werden, sondern parallel zum Rand 13 der zugehö- rigen Scheibe 11. Es sind auch bei der Beschreibung und Zeichnung dieser Ausführungsform die Bezugszeichen der ersten Ausführuhgsform soweit sie analoge Teile betreffen; übernommen worden, um das Verständnis zu erleichtern.3 shows a variant of the invention, in which the wedge surface is not moved essentially normal to the plane of the disc, but parallel to the edge 13 of the associated disc 11. The description and drawing of this embodiment also have the reference numerals of the first Execution form as far as they concern analog parts; has been adopted to facilitate understanding.
Bei dieser Ausführungsform trägt der Halter 1 einen Zentralteil 2, der parallel zu den ihm zugeordneten Rändern 13 der Scheiben 11, die er hält, verlauft. Im Zentralteil sind Einsät- ze 6, die Gegenflächen 5 tragen und deren Fahimen in der bzw. parallel zur Scheibenebene verlaufen, verschieblich angeordnet. Die Scheibenhalter 3 verfügen über den Gegenflächen 5 zugeordnete und sie flächig kontaktierende schräge Flächen 4. Wenn nun die Einsätze 6 durch Verdrehen der zugehörigen Stellschraube 8 in Richtung des Randes 13 bewegt wird, so werden die Scheibenhalter 3 dadurch Bewegung normal zum Rand 13 ausführen, die ihnen das Halten bzw. Freigeben der Scheiben 11 erlaubt. In Fig. 3 ist beispielsweise der linke Scheibenhalter mittels einer Stellschraube 8 in eine etwa mittlere Position gebracht worden, in der er den unteren Rand 13 der oberen Scheibe 11 positioniert und hält. Zur Illustration ist der rechte Scheibenhalter 3 mit seiner Stellschraube 8 ganz ausgefahren gezeigt, somit in der niedrigsten Bauhöhe und es ist die unte- re Scheibe 11, wie aus der rechten Schnittdarstellung ersichtlich ist, freigegeben und kann ein- bzw. ausgebaut werden.In this embodiment, the holder 1 carries a central part 2, which runs parallel to the associated edges 13 of the disks 11 which it holds. Inserts 6, which support counter surfaces 5 and whose surfaces run in or parallel to the disk plane, are arranged displaceably in the central part. The disk holders 3 have the mating surfaces 5 assigned to them and contacting them flat. If the inserts 6 are now moved in the direction of the edge 13 by turning the associated set screw 8, the disk holders 3 will thereby perform movement normal to the edge 13, which allows them to hold or release the disks 11. 3, for example, the left pane holder has been brought into an approximately middle position by means of an adjusting screw 8, in which it positions and holds the lower edge 13 of the upper pane 11. For illustration, the right pane holder 3 is shown fully extended with its adjusting screw 8, thus in the lowest overall height, and the lower pane 11 is released, as can be seen from the sectional view on the right, and can be installed or removed.
Die Fig. 4 zeigt die Situation bei der maximalen Fugenbreite, beide Scheibenhalter 3 sind zur Gänze ausgefahren, es können auf diese Weise auch extrem breite Fugen sicher überbrückt werden. Gleichzeitig erkennt man, dass es selbstverständlich möglich ist, die Schei- ben 11 auch dann sicher zu halten, wenn, aus welchen Gründen auch immer, der Zentralteil 2 nicht genau symmetrisch in der Fugenmitte angeordnet ist.4 shows the situation at the maximum joint width, both pane holders 3 are fully extended, and extremely wide joints can also be bridged in this way. At the same time, it can be seen that it is of course possible to hold the disks 11 securely even if, for whatever reason, the central part 2 is not arranged exactly symmetrically in the middle of the joint.
Die Betätigung der Stellschrauben 8 ist mittels Inbussen od.dgl. leicht möglich, die Einziehbewegung der Scheibenhalter 3 kann auch hier mittels Federn, O-Ringen od.dgl. gefördert und unterstützt werden. Die Stellschrauben selbst sitzen mittels entsprechender Federringe in den Einsätzen, so dass sie diese nicht nur schieben, sondern auch ziehen können.The actuation of the adjusting screws 8 or the like is by means of busses. easily possible, the retracting movement of the disc holder 3 can also here or by means of springs, O-rings. be promoted and supported. The set screws themselves are seated in the inserts by means of appropriate spring washers, so that they can not only push them, but also pull them.
Eine besonders bevorzugte Variante, die insbesondere beim Aufbau von Fassaden mit nicht durchgehend fluchtender Oberfläche verwendbar ist, zeigen die Fig. 5 und 6. Dabei trägt der Zentralteil 2 um eine Achse 15 verdrehbare und in beliebiger Winkellage mittels Verdrehsicherungen 16 fixierbare Zwischenteile 14, die wiederum verstellbare und fixierbare Einsätze 6, die Gegenflächen 5- aufweisen, tragen. Der weitere Aufbau mit den Scheibenhaltern 3 und deren schrägen Flächen 4 ist analog zu der Ausführungsform gemäß den Figuren 3 und 4.5 and 6 show a particularly preferred variant, which can be used in particular in the construction of facades with a surface which is not continuously flush. The central part 2 carries intermediate parts 14 which can be rotated about an axis 15 and can be fixed in any angular position by means of anti-rotation means 16, which in turn adjustable and fixable inserts 6, which have counter surfaces 5- wear. The further structure with the disk holders 3 and their inclined surfaces 4 is analogous to the embodiment according to FIGS. 3 and 4.
Die Verdrehsicherung erfolgt bevorzugt so, dass in der „richtigen" Winkellage des Zwi- schenteils 14 bezüglich des Zentralteils 2 diese Lage durch Wurmschrauben mit spitzem und bevorzugt gehärtetem Ende, provisorisch fixiert wird und dass anschließend durch bestehende Löcher im Zentralteil 2, die vorteilhafterweise nahe den Wurmschrauben vorgesehen sind, ein Sackloch (oder auch Durchgangsloch) in den Stift des Zwischenteils 14 gebohrt wird, der in der Ausnehmung des Zentralteiles steckt und dass in diese Bohrung eine Fixierschraube 16 (Fig. 7), bevorzugt ebenfalls eine Wurmschraube, geschraubt wird, die so die beiden Teile 2, 14 auch bei großen angreifenden Drehmomenten gegen jede Bewegung, auch gegen jede axiale, sichert. Besonders bevorzugt wird dabei, dass die erstgenannten Wurmschrauben, die die vorläufige Fixierung übernehmen, mit ihrer Spitze auch im „freigebenden" Zustand in eine Ringnut des Zentralteiles 2 ragen und so den Zusammenhalt der einzelnen Bauteile sichern. Es kann die Ringnut nur über einen Teil des Umfanges ausgebildet sein, um sicherzustellen, dass die von den Scheiben ausgeübte Belastung, die auf den Halter 1 als Drehmoment wirkt, stets in „Anziehrichtung" belastet.The anti-rotation is preferably carried out in such a way that, in the “correct” angular position of the intermediate part 14 with respect to the central part 2, this position is provisionally fixed by worm screws with a pointed and preferably hardened end and then by existing holes in the central part 2, which advantageously close to the Worm screws are provided, a blind hole (or also through hole) is drilled into the pin of the intermediate part 14, which is in the recess of the central part and that a fixing screw 16 (FIG. 7), preferably also a worm screw, is screwed into this hole thus secures the two parts 2, 14 against any movement, even against any axial, even with large attacking torques. It is particularly preferred that the worm screws mentioned above, which take over the provisional fixation, also protrude with their tip into an annular groove of the central part 2 in the "releasing" state and thus ensure the cohesion of the individual components. The annular groove can only over part of the Be circumferentially designed to ensure that the load exerted by the disks, which acts as a torque on the holder 1, is always loaded in the “tightening direction”.
Die Fig. 6 zeigt an einem Beispiel mit konkaver Ausbildung der Gebäudeoberfläche entlang einer vertikalen Kante, wie es durch die letztgenannte Variante der Erfindung möglich ist, eine derartige Ausbildung auf einfache Weise herzustellen. Es ist ohne weiteres mög- lieh, zu Winkeln bis zu 25° und auch mehr zwischen benachbarten Scheiben zu kommen. Diese Ausführungsform der Halterungen ist natürlich mit Halterungen nach den anderen Ausführungsformen kombinierbar.6 shows an example with a concave design of the building surface along a vertical edge, as is possible by the latter variant of the invention to produce such a design in a simple manner. It is easy to borrow angles of up to 25 ° and more between adjacent panes. This embodiment of the brackets can of course be combined with brackets according to the other embodiments.
Die Fig. 7 und 8 zeigen Varianten von Haltern gemäß Fig. 5 für unterschiedliche Scheibenstärken in Ansichten gemäß den Fig. 3 und 4. Man erkennt, dass die Scheibenhalter 3 bzw. die Zwischenteile 14 gemäß der Fig. 7 auch in den Zentralteil 2 gemäß der Fig. 8 passen, sodass Änderungen des Aufbaues und insbesondere der Stärke der Scheiben problemlos berücksichtigt werden können.FIGS. 7 and 8 show variants of holders according to FIG. 5 for different pane thicknesses in views according to FIGS. 3 and 4. It can be seen that the pane holder 3 or the intermediate parts 14 according to FIG. 7 also in the central part 2 according to FIG 8 fit so that changes in the structure and in particular the thickness of the panes can be taken into account without any problems.
Es ist in der Praxis günstig, wenn die einzelnen Teile des erfindungsgemäßen Halters unverlierbar miteinander verbunden sind, ohne dass ihre Beweglichkeit relativ zueinander darunter leidet. Dies kann beispielsweise durch die in den Ausführungsbeispielen gezeigte Schwalbenschwanzführung entlang der beiden verschieblichen Flächen 4, 5 geschehen, wobei der Einsatz 6 durch die Stellschraube 8 mit dem Zentralteil verbunden ist. Selbstverständlich sind andere Maßnahmen möglich, wie aus dem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel ersichtlich ist. Die Figur 9 zeigt auf schematische Weise die Montage eines Scheibenhalters, wie er in verschiedenen Ausführungen in den Figuren 5 bis 8 dargestellt ist. Dabei wird der Zwischenteil 14 samt dem eigentlichen Scheibenhalter 3 und den zugehörigen Bauteilen im Abstand vom Zentralteil 2 und im Vergleich zu seiner endgültigen Lage um die Achse 15 (Fig. 5) verschwenkt zwischen die benachbarten Scheiben 11 eingeführt und, wenn die in der rechten Teilfigur eingezeichnete Lage erreicht ist entlang der Achse 15 in den Zentralteil 2 eingeschoben und dort beispielsweise mittels Wurmschrauben zumindest provisorisch fixiert. Es können dies die Wurmschrauben 16 (Fig. 7 und 8) sein, die in Ringnuten der Zwischenteile 14 eingreifen und so den Zusammenhalt mit dem Zentralteil 2 sichern auch wenn sie nicht so fest angeschraubt sind, dass sie die beiden Teile gegen eine Rela- tiwerdrehung um die Achse 15 sichern.In practice it is advantageous if the individual parts of the holder according to the invention are captively connected to one another without their mobility relative to one another suffering as a result. This can be done, for example, by the dovetail guide shown in the exemplary embodiments along the two displaceable surfaces 4, 5, the insert 6 being connected to the central part by the set screw 8. Of course, other measures are possible, as can be seen from the first embodiment. FIG. 9 shows, in a schematic manner, the assembly of a pane holder, as shown in different versions in FIGS. 5 to 8. Here, the intermediate part 14 together with the actual disc holder 3 and the associated components at a distance from the central part 2 and compared to its final position about the axis 15 (FIG. 5) is pivoted between the adjacent discs 11 and, if the in the right part figure reached position is inserted along the axis 15 into the central part 2 and at least provisionally fixed there, for example by worm screws. These can be the worm screws 16 (FIGS. 7 and 8), which are in annular grooves of the intermediate parts 14 engage and thus ensure cohesion with the central part 2 even if they are not screwed on so tightly that they secure the two parts against a relative rotation about the axis 15.
Die Figur 10 stellt eine Weiterentwicklung der Erfindung dar, deren Grundlage in einer Zusammenschau mit der Fig. 6 kurz erläutert werden soll: Die Fig.6 zeigt die Situation am Zusammenstoß von vier Belagsplatten die jeweils nahe ihrer Ecke von einem Halter in vertikaler und einem weiteren Halter in horizontaler Richtung gehalten werden. Die so insgesamt notwendigen vier Halter 1 werden nun üblicherweise nicht getrennt voneinander an der Tragkonstruktion befestigt, sondern es wird eine Zwischenbefestigung (nicht darge- stellt) vorgesehen, sodass die Montage an der eigentlichen Tragkonstruktion nur einen Teil betrifft an dem wiederum die vier Halter 1 passend justiert und fixiert werden. Diesen sowohl für die Montage als auch für die Kraftübertragung komplexen Aufbau zu vereinfachen und dabei zu einer auch kostengünstigen Lösung zu gelangen, ist die Aufgabe der Ausbildung der Erfindung gemäß Fig. 10: Der Aufbau dieser Ausgestaltung soll an dem am häufigsten vorkommenden Fall, nämlich an der Befestigung im Eckbereich der Scheiben, somit an den Stellen einer Fassade, an denen vier Scheiben zusammenstoßen, erläutert werden, wobei den Fachmann aber klar ist, dass durch einfache Abwandlungen die unterschiedlichsten Sonderfälle und Ausgestaltungen möglich sind. Ein Halter 1, der an der Tragkonstruktion passend befestigt ist trägt ei- nen Zentralteil 2, der vier parallel zu den Rändern 13 (bzw. Achsen 15) verlaufenden zylindrischen Fortsätze 20 aufweist. Auf diese Fortsätze werden fixe Scheibenhalter 21 geschoben, die analog zu der oben beschriebenen Methode mittels Fixierschrauben 16 in passender Lage gegenüber einer Verdrehung auf den zylindrischen Fortsätzen 20 gesichert werden können. Diese fixen Scheibenhalter 21 weisen ebenfalls Einlageblätter 12 auf, um die Ränder 13 der Scheiben 11 zu schonen.FIG. 10 represents a further development of the invention, the basis of which is to be briefly explained in a synopsis with FIG. 6: FIG. 6 shows the situation at the collision of four covering plates, each of which is close to its corner by a vertical holder and another Holders are held in the horizontal direction. The four brackets 1 required in this way are now usually not fastened separately to one another on the supporting structure, but an intermediate fastening (not shown) is provided, so that the assembly on the actual supporting structure only affects a part on which the four brackets 1 in turn fit be adjusted and fixed. The task of designing the invention according to FIG. 10 is to simplify this complex structure, both for assembly and for power transmission, and to arrive at a cost-effective solution: The structure of this configuration is intended to address the most frequently occurring case, namely the attachment in the corner area of the panes, thus at the locations of a facade where four panes meet, are explained, but it is clear to the person skilled in the art that a wide variety of special cases and configurations are possible through simple modifications. A holder 1 which is suitably fastened to the supporting structure carries a central part 2 which has four cylindrical extensions 20 running parallel to the edges 13 (or axes 15). Fixed disc holders 21 are pushed onto these extensions, which can be secured in a suitable position against rotation on the cylindrical extensions 20 by means of fixing screws 16, analogously to the method described above. These fixed disk holders 21 also have insert sheets 12 in order to protect the edges 13 of the disks 11.
Die axiale Länge der fixen Scheibenhalter 21 in Richtung der Achse 15 ist kleiner als die Länge der zylindrischen Fortsätze 20. Auf dem Teil der zylindrischen Fortsätze 20, der über die fixen Scheibenhalter 21 hinaus ragt, werden Zwischenteile 24 befestigt, deren markantester Unterschied zu den Zwischenteilen 14 darin besteht, dass sie an ihrem dem Zentralteil 2 zugewandt dem Ende keinen Stummel besitzen der in den Zentralteil einschiebbar ist, sondern eine zylindrische Ausnehmung, in die das Ende 22 des zylindrischen Fortsatzes 20 einschiebbar ist. Dieses Ende 22 kann nun in völliger Analogie zur Ausbil- dungsform der Fig. 5 mit einer Ringnut versehen sein um den Zwischenteil 24 beweglich, aber unverlierbar mittels einer Wurmschraube mit ihm zu verbinden und im Zuge der Montage einer Scheibe 11 zumindest provisorisch zu sichern, bis durch die Verdrehsicherung 16 eine endgültige Fixierung in der gewünschten Lage gegeben ist. Am Zwischenteil 24 sitzt der eigentliche Scheibenhalter 23, der im Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 10 bei gleicher Funktion etwas anders aufgebaut ist als der Scheibenhalter 3 des Ausführungsbeispieles gemäß Fig. 5: Der Scheibenhalter 23 weist nämlich die schräge Fläche 4 nicht einstückig mit ihm ausgebildet auf, sondern diese schräge Fläche 4 ist auf einem eigenen Wippenteil 25 angeordnet. Die Kontaktfläche zwischen dem Wippenteil 25 und dem Glasträger 23 ist eine zylindrische Fläche, deren Achse normal auf die Scheibenebene, somit parallel zur Achse 19 verläuft und es so ermöglicht, dass der Glasträger 23 sich in seiner Winkellage stets genau an den Verlauf des Randes 13 der Scheibe anpaßt.The axial length of the fixed disc holder 21 in the direction of the axis 15 is smaller than the length of the cylindrical extensions 20. On the part of the cylindrical extensions 20 which protrudes beyond the fixed disc holder 21, intermediate parts 24 are fastened, the most striking difference to the intermediate parts 14 consists in that at their end facing the central part 2 there is no stub which can be inserted into the central part, but a cylindrical recess into which the end 22 of the cylindrical extension 20 can be inserted. This end 22 can now be used in complete analogy to the training 5 with an annular groove to connect the intermediate part 24 movably, but captively by means of a worm screw with it, and at least provisionally secure it in the course of the assembly of a disc 11 until a final fixation in the desired position by the anti-rotation device 16 given is. The actual pane holder 23 is seated on the intermediate part 24, which in the exemplary embodiment of FIG. 10 is constructed somewhat differently with the same function as the pane holder 3 of the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 5: namely, the pane holder 23 does not have the inclined surface 4 formed integrally with it, but this inclined surface 4 is arranged on its own rocker part 25. The contact surface between the rocker part 25 and the glass support 23 is a cylindrical surface, the axis of which runs normal to the plane of the pane, thus parallel to the axis 19, and thus enables the glass support 23 to always align exactly with the course of the edge 13 of the lens Adapts disc.
Der Scheibenträger 23 umgreift den Zwischenteil 24 seitlich mittels zweier Rippen sodass er, auf seiner dem Zwischenteil 24 zugewandten Seite, einen etwa U-förmigen Querschnitt aufweist. In diesem Bereich weist er eine Öffnung 26 auf, in die Schrauben, Bolzen oder Stifte 27 zu liegen kommen, die im Zwischenteil 24 an passender Stelle befestigt sind. Die Öffnung 26 hat in der Richtung, in der der Scheibenträger 23 verschieblich ist, eine Abmessung, die deutlich größer ist als der Durchmesser des Stiftes 27. Durch diese Maßnahme wird der Scheibenhalter 23 und der zwischen ihm und dem Einsatz 6 befindliche Wip- penteil 25 unverlierbar gehalten ohne dass seine Beweglichkeit eingeschränkt wäre. Die Verschiebung selbst erfolgt durch eine Stellschraube 8, die den Einsatzteil 6 mit der Gegenfläche passend bewegt, dadurch den Wippenteil 25 mit der schrägen Fläche normal zum Rand 13 verschiebt und damit auch den Scheibenhalter 23, der sich im Zuge dieser Verschiebung durch Verdrehen um die Achse der Zylinderfläche der genauen Orientierung des Randes 13 anpasst.The disk support 23 surrounds the intermediate part 24 laterally by means of two ribs so that it has an approximately U-shaped cross section on its side facing the intermediate part 24. In this area it has an opening 26 into which screws, bolts or pins 27 come to rest, which are fastened in the intermediate part 24 at a suitable point. In the direction in which the disk carrier 23 is displaceable, the opening 26 has a dimension which is significantly larger than the diameter of the pin 27. This measure makes the disk holder 23 and the rocker part 25 located between it and the insert 6 held captive without its mobility being restricted. The displacement itself is carried out by an adjusting screw 8, which moves the insert part 6 with the counter surface in a suitable manner, thereby displacing the rocker part 25 with the inclined surface normal to the edge 13 and thus also the disk holder 23, which in the course of this displacement is rotated about the axis the cylindrical surface of the exact orientation of the edge 13 adapts.
Es ist klar, dass jede (viereckige) Scheibe 11 an zwei benachbarten Seiten von einem fixen Scheibenhalter 21 gehalten werden kann, wenn nur die beiden anderen Seiten von beweglichen Scheibenhaltern 23 gehalten werden. Dies wird durch die Anordnung der Scheibenhalter wie sie die Fig. 10 zeigt, ermöglicht, wobei bevorzugt die fixen Scheibenhalter 21 an der Unterseite jeder Scheibe vorgesehen sind, da dann die Fixierung der Scheibe nicht gegen deren Gewicht vorgenommen werden muss und da dann das Scheibengewicht mit geringem Hebelarm über die zylindrischen Fortsätze 20 auf den Zentralteil 2 geleitet wird und so die zylindrischen Fortsätze weniger auf Biegung beansprucht als wenn das Scheibengewicht auf die im größeren Abstand zum Halter 1 befindlichen beweglichen Scheibenhalter übertragen wird.It is clear that each (square) disc 11 can be held on two adjacent sides by a fixed disc holder 21 if only the other two sides are held by movable disc holders 23. This is made possible by the arrangement of the disc holders as shown in FIG. 10, the fixed disc holders 21 preferably being provided on the underside of each disc, since then the disc does not have to be fixed against its weight and since the disc weight is then included low lever arm is passed via the cylindrical extensions 20 to the central part 2 and so the cylindrical extensions are less stressed on bending than when the weight of the disc is transferred to the movable disc holder located at a greater distance from the holder 1.
Die Fig. 11 zeigt in Draufsicht die Situation im montierten Zustand und die Fig. 12 zeigt den Bereich der beweglichen Scheibenhalter 23 in zwei unterschiedlichen Stellungen im Schnitt, dabei ist mit strichlierten Linien die Schrägstellung des Randes 13 angedeutet, die durch die zylindrische Ausbildung der Kontaktfläche zwischen dem Scheibenhalter 23 und dem Wippenteil 25 ausgeglichen werden kann. Die kreisförmige Ausnehmung 26 und der Haltestift 27 sind strichliert angedeutet, aus dem Vergleich der oberen und der unteren Ab- bildung der Fig. 12 ist ersichtlich, wie sich die Lage dieser beiden Teile zueinander ändert und dabei zwar die Beweglichkeit der Teile zueinander erlaubt, ihr Auseinanderfallen aber verhindert. Es kann selbstverständlich statt der großen kreisförmigen Ausnehmung 26 ein Langloch vorgesehen sein, doch ist die Herstellung der kreisförmigen Ausnehmung in den meisten Fällen kostengünstiger als die Herstellung eines Langloches. Es ist leicht ersichtlich, dass am Zentralteil noch zumindest ein weiterer zylindrischer Fortsatz, nämlich aus der Papierebene heraus, vorgesehen sein kann, wodurch eine Vielzahl von architektonischen Möglichkeiten geschaffen werden.Fig. 11 shows a top view of the situation in the assembled state and Fig. 12 shows the area of the movable disk holder 23 in two different positions on average, the slanted position of the edge 13 is indicated by dashed lines, which is due to the cylindrical design of the contact surface can be compensated for between the disc holder 23 and the rocker member 25. The circular recess 26 and the holding pin 27 are indicated by dashed lines, from the comparison of the upper and lower illustration in FIG. 12 it can be seen how the position of these two parts changes with respect to one another and thereby allows the parts to move with respect to one another But falling apart prevented. An elongated hole can of course be provided instead of the large circular recess 26, but in most cases the production of the circular recess is less expensive than the production of an elongated hole. It is easy to see that at least one further cylindrical extension, namely out of the plane of the paper, can be provided on the central part, thereby creating a multitude of architectural possibilities.
Eine weitere Variante, bei der nicht auf schräge Flächen zum Verschieben der Scheibenhalter bezüglich des Zentralteiles zurückgegriffen wird, ist aus der Fig. 13 ersichtlich: Die- se zeigt einen Biegeteil 18, der durch die Stellschraube 8 mehr oder weniger elastisch gebogen -wird und dadurch denr' Scheibenhalter 3 normal zum Rand -13 bewegt. »Bei dieser Variante ist es, so wie dargestellt, möglich, einen Kontaktbereich 17 vorzusehen: Dieser liegt am Biegeteil 18 in dessen Scheitelbereich und trägt, verschwenkbar um eine Achse 19, die normal zur Scheibenebene (ist Papierebene) verläuft, den eigentlichen Scheiben- halter 3. Auf diese Weise erreicht man es, dass der Scheibenhalter 3 sich stets völlig parallel zum Rand 13 einstellen kann und sowohl Fertigungstoleranzen als auch nachträgliche Änderungen von dessen Lage ausgleicht. Dadurch kann eine flächige Kontaktierung zwischen Scheibe und Scheibenhalter erreicht und jede Kantenpressung vermieden werden.A further variant, in which inclined surfaces are not used for displacing the pane holder with respect to the central part, can be seen in FIG. 13: This shows a bent part 18 which is bent more or less elastically by the adjusting screw 8 and thereby the r 'disk holder 3 moved normally to the edge -13. »In this variant, as shown, it is possible to provide a contact area 17: this lies on the bent part 18 in its apex area and, pivotable about an axis 19 which runs normal to the pane plane (is the paper plane), carries the actual pane holder 3. In this way it is achieved that the disc holder 3 can always be set completely parallel to the edge 13 and compensates for both manufacturing tolerances and subsequent changes in its position. This enables a flat contact between the pane and the pane holder and any edge pressure can be avoided.
Es kann statt der elastischen Deformation des Biegeteiles 18 eine Winkeländerung zwi- sehen zwei gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Schenkeln vorgenommen werden und es sind auch gänzlich andere Mechanismen für die Verschiebung des Scheibenhalters denkbar, beispielsweise das Verdrehen einer Nockenscheibe oder eines Exzenters. Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die dargestellten und beschriebenen Ausführungsformen beschränkt, sondern kann verschiedentlich abgewandelt werden, wesentlich ist nur, dass ein Scheibenhalter bewegt werden kann, ohne dass ein anderer, am gleichen Zentralteil befindlicher Scheibenhalter dadurch seine Lage ändert. So sind Kombinationen der unter- schiedlichen Ausführungen möglich und es sind auch „Zwitterformen" denkbar, um Spezi- alfallen gerecht werden zu können. Darunter sind insbesondere Fälle zu verstehen, bei denen ein Halter Scheiben unterschiedlicher Stärken hält. Dies wird durch die Erfindung leicht möglich, da nur unterschiedliche Scheibenhalter, gegebenenfalls mit unterschiedlichen Zwischenteilen auf einem gemeinsamen Zentralteil montiert werden müssen. Dabei können die Scheibenhalter und Zentralteile diejenigen sein, die für die entsprechende Scheibenstärke vorgesehen sind und müssen keine Spezialanfertigungen sein.Instead of the elastic deformation of the bent part 18, an angle change can be carried out between two limbs which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, and entirely different mechanisms for displacing the disk holder are also conceivable, for example the rotation of a cam disk or an eccentric. The invention is not limited to the illustrated and described embodiments, but can be modified in various ways; the only important thing is that a disk holder can be moved without another disk holder located on the same central part thereby changing its position. Combinations of the different designs are possible and “hermaphrodite forms” are also conceivable in order to be able to do justice to special cases. These are to be understood in particular as cases in which a holder holds disks of different thicknesses. This is easily possible by the invention , since only different disc holders, possibly with different intermediate parts, have to be mounted on a common central part. The disc holders and central parts can be the ones that are intended for the corresponding disc thickness and do not have to be custom-made.
Die erfindungsgemäße Halterung kann aus den Materialien bestehen, die üblicherweise im Stand der Technik verwendet werden, insbesondere aus Edelstahl (korrosionsfester, austenitischer Stahl), Aluminium, Aluminiumlegierungen, Kunststoff etc., wesentlich ist die mechanische Stabilität und die Korrosionsfestigkeit des Materials. Für die Einlageblätter können Gummi, Silikon, Kunststoff od.dergl. verwendet werden, in Kenntnis der Erfindung ist es für den Fachmann auf dem Gebiete des Fassadenbaus leicht möglich, die entsprechende Auswahl zu treffen. Dies gilt auch für die Dimensionierung der einzelnen Teile, wobei durch die erfindungsgemäßen Merkmale eine flächige Kontaktierung und somit eine wesentliche Verbesserung der Halterung erreicht wird, die wiederum eine deutliche Verkleinerung der Halterung erlaubt. Dies ist sowohl aus Kostengründen als auch aus ästhetischen Gründen von großer Bedeutung.The holder according to the invention can consist of the materials that are usually used in the prior art, in particular stainless steel (corrosion-resistant, austenitic steel), aluminum, aluminum alloys, plastic, etc., the mechanical stability and the corrosion resistance of the material are essential. Rubber, silicone, plastic or the like can be used for the insert sheets. are used, knowing the invention, it is easily possible for a person skilled in the field of facade construction to make the appropriate selection. This also applies to the dimensioning of the individual parts, with the features according to the invention achieving a flat contact and thus a substantial improvement in the holder, which in turn allows the holder to be significantly downsized. This is of great importance both for cost reasons and for aesthetic reasons.
In den gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen haben die Scheibenhalter Backenform, dies ist zwar bevorzugt, muß aber nicht sein. Es ist durchaus möglich, Scheiben mit Nuten an ih- rem Rand zu verwenden und die Scheibenhalter mit einer Nase oder ähnlichem zu versehen, die in die Nut eingreift. Es ersetzt dann quasi das Verschieben der Nase das Verdrehen des Kopfes des eingangs erläuterten Halters. Da es dabei aber zu wesentlich kleineren Kontaktflächen und zu Zugspannungen im Eingriffsbereich kommt, und darüberhinaus die Fertigung der Nut im Rand der Scheibe teuer ist, ist diese Variante nur in Spezialfällen, beispielsweise wenn völliges optisches Zurücktreten der Halter verlangt wird, vorteilhaft. Es ist auch möglich, statt der Fase einen Falz vorzusehen und die Form des Scheibenhai- ters daran anzupassen. Auch diese Variante wird wegen der höheren Kosten nur in Sonderfällen gewählt werden.In the exemplary embodiments shown, the disk holders have a cheek shape, although this is preferred, it does not have to be. It is entirely possible to use washers with grooves on their edge and to provide the washer holders with a nose or the like which engages in the groove. It then virtually replaces the shifting of the nose and the turning of the head of the holder explained at the beginning. However, since this results in significantly smaller contact areas and tensile stresses in the engagement area, and in addition the production of the groove in the edge of the disk is expensive, this variant is only advantageous in special cases, for example when the holder is required to withdraw completely. It is also possible to provide a rebate instead of the chamfer and the shape of the disc shark to adapt to it. This variant will only be chosen in special cases due to the higher costs.
Auch die Lagerung der Einsatzteile in den Zwischenteilen bzw. dem Zentralteil muß nicht auf die dargestellte Weise erfolgen sondern kann abgewandelt werden. Dabei kann durch- aus der Einsatzteil einen Abschnitt des Zwischenteil bzw. des Zentralteils umgreifen bzw. umfassen, sodass hier die Bezeichnung „Einsatzteil" nur mehr im übertragenen Sinn verstanden werden kann. Man kann sich dies veranschaulichen, wenn man sich in Fig. 5 den Zwischenteil 14 als stabförmiges Gebilde denkt und den Einsatzteil 6 als etwa ringförmiges Gebilde mit einer die Gegenfläche tragenden Nase. Dabei wäre der Ring über den Stab geschoben und axial verschieblich zu denken.The storage of the insert parts in the intermediate parts or the central part does not have to take place in the manner shown but can be modified. The insert part can encompass or encompass a section of the intermediate part or the central part, so that the term “insert part” can only be understood in a figurative sense here. This can be illustrated if one looks at FIG Intermediate part 14 thinks as a rod-shaped structure and insert part 6 as an approximately ring-shaped structure with a nose supporting the counter surface, whereby the ring would be slid over the rod and axially displaceable.
Es kann selbstverständlich auch eine andere Form der Verdrehsicherung verwendet werden, wobei bis hin zum Punktschweißen alle dafür bekannten Maßnahmen zur Verfügung stehen.Another form of anti-rotation device can of course also be used, with all known measures being available, including spot welding.
Die Erfindung wurde anhand der Situation beim Zusammenstoß von vier rechteckigen Scheiben beschrieben, doch ist es für den Fachmann in Kenntnis der Erfindung selbstverständlich ein Leichtes, die Halter, die am Rand, an räumlichen Ecken, beim Übergang von einer Scheibengröße (bzw. -stärke) auf eine andere, und in ähnlichen Sonderfallen verwendet werden, entsprechend zu adaptieren. Relativ häufig wird die Situation auftreten, bei der größere Scheiben in ihrem unteren Bereich entlang des Randes mehrfach unterstützt werden. In diesen Fällen kommt es bei Verwendung der Ausgestaltung gemäß Fig. 10 und 11 dazu, dass die erfindungsgemäßen Halter nur einen zylinderförmige Fortsatz 20 tragen. The invention has been described on the basis of the situation when four rectangular panes collide, but it is of course easy for the person skilled in the art, knowing the invention, to hold the holders, which are on the edge, at spatial corners, when changing from a pane size (or thickness). to adapt to another, and used in similar special cases. The situation will occur relatively frequently, in which larger panes are supported several times in their lower region along the edge. In these cases, when using the configuration according to FIGS. 10 and 11, the holders according to the invention only carry a cylindrical extension 20.
