Description

La présente invention se rapporte à toute ouverture de type porte, porte-fenêtre, ou analogue, comportant une serrure dotée d'une têtière métallique, encastrée dans un profilé à rupture de pont thermique comportant un profilé extérieur, un profilé intérieur par définition thermiquement conducteurs, essentiellement métalliques, et des moyens isolants de liaison pour une liaison rigide entre lesdits profilés intérieur et extérieur.The present invention relates to any door-type opening, French door or the like, comprising a lock with a metal headrest, embedded in a thermal break profile having an outer profile, a thermally conductive inner profile by definition. , essentially metallic, and insulating connecting means for a rigid connection between said inner and outer sections.

L'art antérieur enseigne une telle ouverture. On connaît par exemple un mode de réalisation tel qu'illustré sur la figure 1 de manière schématique, qui représente une coupe transversale d'un montant de porte 1, comportant une serrure 2 dotée d'une têtière 3 métallique, encastrée dans un profilé 4 à rupture de pont thermique comportant un profilé extérieur 5, un profilé intérieur 6 et des moyens isolants de liaison 7, 8 pour une liaison rigide entre les profilés intérieur 6 et extérieur 5. La serrure 2 est encastrée dans l'ouvrant 9, et le pêne 10 de la serrure 2 est prévu pour se loger dans une gâche 11 du dormant 12. La serrure 2 est fixé dans le profilé 4 par l'intermédiaire de sa têtière 3 au moyen de vis 13, en général deux vis, dont la tête est noyée dans l'épaisseur de la têtière, en prise dans une barrette isolante 7 comme représenté, du fait de la position sensiblement centrale de la serrure et des moyens isolants de liaison 7, 8 constituant la rupture de pont thermique. Un tel montage présente un inconvénient essentiel en ce que la têtière métallique rétablit un pont thermique local entre le profilé extérieur 5 et le profilé intérieur 6. Un deuxième inconvénient important du montage décrit ci-dessus réside dans le fait que la fixation de la serrure 2 tombe dans la zone des moyens de rupture de pont thermique du profilé 4 dans lequel elle est encastrée, ce qui ne confère pas à cette fixation les meilleures qualités du fait que ces moyens restent peu résistants devant les profilés 5, 6 eux-mêmes.The prior art teaches such an opening. For example, an embodiment is shown schematically in FIG. 1, which represents a cross-section of a door jamb 1, comprising a lock 2 provided with a metal headrest 3 embedded in a profile 4. thermal break with an outer profile 5, an inner profile 6 and insulating connecting means 7, 8 for a rigid connection between the inner and outer profiles 6 and 6. The lock 2 is embedded in the opening 9, and the bolt 10 of the lock 2 is provided to be housed in a striker 11 of the frame 12. The lock 2 is fixed in the section 4 via its headrest 3 by means of screws 13, generally two screws, whose head is embedded in the thickness of the headrest, engaged in an insulating strip 7 as shown, due to the substantially central position of the lock and the insulating connecting means 7, 8 constituting the thermal break. Such an assembly has an essential disadvantage in that the metal headrest restores a local thermal bridge between the outer profile 5 and the inner profile 6. A second major disadvantage of the assembly described above lies in the fact that the fixing of the lock 2 falls into the area of the thermal bridge breaking means of the section 4 in which it is embedded, which does not give this attachment the best qualities because these means remain weak in front of the profiles 5, 6 themselves.

On connaît en outre le document GB 2 384 511 qui se rapporte à une ouverture de type porte, porte-fenêtre, ou analogue, comportant :

  • une serrure dotée d'une têtière métallique, encastrée dans un profilé à rupture de pont thermique comportant un profilé extérieur, un profilé intérieur et des moyens isolants de liaison pour une liaison rigide entre lesdits profilés intérieur et extérieur,
  • une rainure, dite "euro-rainure", formée dans les moyens isolants de liaison entre lesdits profilés intérieur et extérieur, et destinée à loger la têtière de la serrure.
In addition, the document is known GB 2,384,511 which relates to an opening of the type door, French window, or the like, comprising:
  • a lock with a metal headrest, embedded in a thermal break profile having an outer profile, an inner profile and insulating connecting means for a rigid connection between said inner and outer sections,
  • a groove, called "euro-groove", formed in the insulating connecting means between said inner and outer sections, and for housing the headrest of the lock.

Une telle ouverture permet de supprimer le pont thermique crée par une têtière fixée sur les profilés extérieur et intérieur du profilé à rupture de pont thermique, mais présente un inconvénient majeur qui est de procéder à la fixation de la serrure sur des pièces dont la résistance est faible du fait de leur fonction isolante, en général des pièces plastiques. Ainsi, une telle solution n'est pas satisfaisante d'un point de vue de la tenue mécanique. En outre, une telle ouverture minimise les moyens isolants assumant la fonction de rupture de pont thermique dans la zone de fixation de la têtière en diminuant les distances séparant les parties métalliques intérieure et extérieure dans cette zone. D'où une diminution des performances de la rupture de pont thermique dans la zone de la têtière. En outre, d'une manière générale, les moyens isolants reliant les profilés intérieur et extérieur métalliques d'un profilé à rupture de pont thermique, sont réalisés dans un matériau de type polyamide chargé en fibres de verre afin de réunir des performances d'isolation et de tenue mécanique. Le chargement de la matière plastique en fibres réduit les performances d'isolation, ce qui vient affaiblir encore l'isolation dans la zone de la têtière selon ce document. Ainsi, une telle solution n'est également pas satisfaisante d'un point de vue de l'isolation thermique.Such an opening eliminates the thermal bridge created by a headrest attached to the outer and inner profiles of the thermal break profile, but has a major drawback which is to proceed to the fixing of the lock on parts whose resistance is weak because of their insulating function, usually plastic parts. Thus, such a solution is not satisfactory from a point of view of the mechanical strength. In addition, such an opening minimizes the insulating means assuming the function of thermal break in the fastening area of the headrest by decreasing the distances separating the inner and outer metal parts in this zone. Hence a decrease in the performance of thermal break in the area of the headrest. In addition, in general, the insulating means connecting the inner and outer metal profiles of a thermal break profile, are made of a polyamide material filled with glass fibers to provide insulation performance and mechanical strength. Loading the fiber material reduces the insulation performance, further weakening the insulation in the headrest area according to this document. Thus, such a solution is also not satisfactory from a thermal insulation point of view.

La présente invention vise à pallier ces inconvénients et à apporter d'autres avantages. Plus précisément, elle consiste en une ouverture de type porte, porte-fenêtre, ou analogue, comportant une serrure dotée d'une têtière métallique, encastrée dans un profilé à rupture de pont thermique comportant un profilé extérieur, un profilé intérieur et des moyens isolants de liaison pour une liaison rigide entre lesdits profilés intérieur et extérieur,
caractérisée en ce que l'ouverture comprend :

  • des moyens de fixation de la serrure sur le profilé à rupture de pont thermique, via ladite têtière,
  • des moyens d'appui isolants interposés entre la têtière et le profilé à rupture de pont thermique dans lequel la serrure est logée et fixée, établissant une liaison thermiquement isolante entre les deux profilés intérieur et extérieur du profilé à rupture de pont thermique.
The present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages and to provide other advantages. More specifically, it consists of a door-type opening, French door or the like, comprising a lock with a metal headrest, embedded in a thermal break profile having an outer profile, an inner profile and insulating means. connection for a rigid connection between said inner and outer sections,
characterized in that the opening comprises:
  • means for fixing the lock on the thermal break profile, via said headrest,
  • insulating support means interposed between the headrest and the thermal break profile in which the lock is housed and fixed, establishing a thermally insulating connection between the two inner and outer profiles of the thermal break profile.

Le montage proposé selon l'invention permet de garantir la continuité de la rupture de pont thermique dans la zone de fixation de la serrure. En outre, grâce à l'interposition des moyens d'appui isolants entre la têtière et le profilé à rupture de pont thermique, établissant une liaison thermiquement isolante entre les deux profilés intérieur et extérieur, le montage de la serrure permet de bénéficier de l'appui solide sur les profilés extérieur et intérieur du profilé à rupture de pont thermique. En outre, la solution selon la demande examinée permet de conserver les qualités d'isolation thermique dans la zone de fixation de la têtière, en dissociant les moyens d'appui isolants interposés entre la têtière et le profilé à rupture de pont thermique d'une part, et les moyens isolants de liaison pour une liaison rigide entre lesdits profilés intérieur et extérieur d'autre part. Les moyens d'appui isolants interposés entre la têtière et le profilé à rupture de pont thermique peuvent ainsi être réalisés dans une matière plastique différente de celle constitutive des moyens isolants de liaison pour une liaison rigide entre les profilés intérieur et extérieur, par exemple une matière plastique non chargée, donc plus performante en terme d'isolation thermique que la même matière plastique chargée de fibres.The proposed assembly according to the invention makes it possible to guarantee the continuity of the thermal bridge break in the fastening zone of the lock. In addition, thanks to the interposition of the insulating support means between the headrest and the thermal break profile, establishing a thermally insulating connection between the two inner and outer profiles, mounting the lock allows to benefit from the solid support on the outer and inner profiles of the thermal break profile. In addition, the solution according to the application examined makes it possible to maintain the thermal insulation qualities in the fastening zone of the headrest, by dissociating the insulating support means interposed between the headrest and the thermal break profile of a on the one hand, and the insulating connecting means for a rigid connection between the said inner and outer sections on the other hand. The insulating support means interposed between the headrest and the thermal break profile can thus be made of a plastic material different from that constituting the insulating connecting means for a rigid connection between the inner and outer profiles, for example a material unloaded plastic, therefore more efficient in terms of thermal insulation than the same plastic material loaded with fibers.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, les moyens de fixation de la serrure via ladite têtière comportent des moyens en prise sur l'un au moins des profilés extérieur et intérieur du profilé à rupture de pont thermique.According to an advantageous characteristic, the fastening means of the lock via said headrest comprise means engaged on at least one of the outer and inner profiles of the thermal break profile.

Cette caractéristique permet avantageusement d'éviter une fixation en prise sur les moyens isolant du profilé à rupture de pont thermique d'une manière générale moins résistants que les profilés extérieur et intérieur essentiellement métalliques du profilé à rupture de pont thermique.This characteristic advantageously makes it possible to avoid a fastening in engagement with the insulating means of the thermal break profile generally less resistant than the essentially metallic outer and inner profiles of the thermal break profile.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, les moyens de fixation de la serrure via ladite têtière comportent :

  • des moyens de positionnement de la serrure, coulissant le long du profilé à rupture de pont thermique, conférant un moyen de réglage de la position de la serrure le long dudit profilé à rupture de pont thermique,
  • des moyens de liaison rigide desdits moyens de positionnement de la serrure, via la têtière, le long du profilé à rupture de pont thermique.
According to an advantageous characteristic, the fastening means of the lock via said headrest comprise:
  • means for positioning the lock, sliding along the thermal break profile, providing a means for adjusting the position of the lock along said thermal break profile,
  • rigid connection means of said lock positioning means, via the headrest, along the thermal break profile.

Cette caractéristique permet avantageusement un réglage en hauteur de la serrure, notamment par rapport à la partie correspondante de celle-ci fixée par exemple dans le dormant de l'ouverture.This feature advantageously allows a height adjustment of the lock, particularly with respect to the corresponding part thereof fixed for example in the frame of the opening.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, les moyens d'appui isolants coopèrent avec les moyens de positionnement de la serrure, en vue de conférer un moyen de réglage de la position de la serrure le long dudit profilé à rupture de pont thermique, établissant une liaison thermiquement isolante entre les deux profilés intérieur et extérieur du profilé à rupture de pont thermique, quelle que soit la position de la serrure par rapport à ce dernier.According to an advantageous characteristic, the insulating support means cooperate with the positioning means of the lock, in order to provide a means for adjusting the position of the lock along said thermal break profile, establishing a thermally insulating connection between the two inner and outer profiles of the thermal break profile, regardless of the position of the lock relative to the latter.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, les moyens d'appui isolants sont solidaires des moyens de positionnement de la serrure, et coulissants le long du profilé à rupture de pont thermique avec ces derniers.According to an advantageous characteristic, the insulating support means are integral with the means for positioning the lock, and sliding along the thermal break profile with the latter.

Les moyens de fixation 115 de la serrure 102 via la têtière 103 comportent avantageusement des moyens en prise sur chacun des profilés extérieur 105 et intérieur 106 du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique, comme cela va être expliqué plus loin.The fastening means 115 of the lock 102 via the headrest 103 advantageously comprise means engaged on each of the outer profiles 105 and inner 106 of the profile 104 thermal break, as will be explained later.

Les moyens de fixation 115 de la serrure 102 via la têtière 103 comportent avantageusement :

  • des moyens de positionnement 117 de la serrure 102 coulissant le long du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique, conférant un moyen de réglage de la position de la serrure 102 le long de ce profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique, ce moyen de réglage permettant d'affiner la position de la serrure 102 le long du profilé 104, dans le jeu laissé par l'ouverture de passage de la serrure 102 à travers la barrette isolante 107, en regard de la gâche (non représentée) placée dans le dormant 112, avant de procéder à la fixation définitive de la serrure 102 sur l'ouvrant 109 comme expliqué plus loin,
  • des moyens de liaison rigide 118 des moyens de positionnement 117 de la serrure 102, via la têtière 103, le long du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique.
The fixing means 115 of the lock 102 via the headrest 103 advantageously comprise:
  • positioning means 117 of the lock 102 sliding along the section 104 thermal break, conferring a means of adjusting the position of the lock 102 along the section 104 thermal break, this adjustment means allowing to refine the position of the lock 102 along the section 104, in the clearance left by the opening passage of the lock 102 through the insulating strip 107, facing the striker (not shown) placed in the frame 112 , before proceeding to the final fixing of the lock 102 on the opening 109 as explained below,
  • rigid connection means 118 of the positioning means 117 of the lock 102, via the headrest 103, along the section 104 thermal break.

Les moyens de positionnement 117 de la serrure 102 adoptent par exemple la forme d'un profilé 120, comme représenté sur la figure 3, réalisé dans une matière isolante rigide, par exemple une matière plastique, dont la section transversale adopte une forme générale de U, les parties supérieures des deux branches du U comportant respectivement un épaulement longitudinal 119 supérieur s'étendant latéralement vers l'extérieur du U pour servir de moyens d'appui 116 de la têtière 103 de la serrure 102, la têtière 103 étant ainsi avantageusement encastrée entre les branches du U, dans la partie supérieure de celles-ci, comme représenté sur la figure 2. Les parties supérieures des deux branches du U du profilé 120 comportent respectivement un épaulement longitudinal 121 inférieur s'étendant latéralement vers l'extérieur du U, en regard des épaulements supérieurs 119 respectivement, en vue de fournir un appui du profilé 120, et en conséquence de la serrure 102, sur chacun des profilés 105 et 106 du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique. La base du U formé par le profilé 120 est encastrée entre les profilé extérieur 105 et intérieur 106, et le profilé 120 est ainsi avantageusement guidé en translation entre ces derniers. Le profilé 120 sera munie d'une ouverture 123 de dimensions suffisantes pour le passage de la partie encastrée dans le profilé de la serrure 102; il n'est pas nécessaire de laisser du jeu entre la serrure 102 et l'ouverture 123 car le profilé 120 se déplace avec la serrure 102 le long du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique à l'intérieur de l'espace libre laissé par l'ouverture réalisée dans la barrette 107 extérieure de ce dernier, cette dernière ouverture étant réalisée en sorte de permettre un réglage de la position de la serrure si nécessaire. La serrure peut être centrée dans le profilé 120 soit entre les parties supérieures des branches du U, soit dans l'ouverture 123 réalisée dans le profilé 120.The positioning means 117 of the lock 102 adopt, for example, the shape of a profile 120, as represented in FIG. 3, made of a rigid insulating material, for example a plastics material, whose transverse section adopts a general U shape. , the upper parts of the two branches of the U respectively having a longitudinal shoulder 119 extending laterally towards the outside of the U to serve as support means 116 of the headrest 103 of the lock 102, the headrest 103 thus being advantageously embedded between the branches of the U, in the upper part thereof, as shown in Figure 2. The upper portions of the two branches of the U profile 120 respectively comprise a lower longitudinal shoulder 121 extending laterally outwardly of the U , facing the upper shoulders 119 respectively, in order to provide a support of the profile 120, and as a result of the lock 102 , on each of the profiles 105 and 106 of the section 104 thermal break. The base of the U formed by the profile 120 is embedded between the outer profile 105 and inner 106, and the profile 120 is thus advantageously guided in translation between them. The profile 120 will be provided with an opening 123 of sufficient size for the passage of the recessed portion in the profile of the lock 102; it is not necessary to leave play between the lock 102 and the opening 123 because the profile 120 moves with the lock 102 along the section 104 to thermal break within the free space left by the opening made in the outer bar 107 of the latter, the latter opening being made so as to allow adjustment of the position of the lock if necessary. The lock can be centered in the profile 120 either between the upper parts of the branches of the U, or in the opening 123 made in the profile 120.

Ainsi, les moyens d'appui isolants 116 coopèrent avec les moyens de positionnement 117 de la serrure 102, en vue de conférer un moyen de réglage de la position de la serrure 102 le long du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique, établissant une liaison thermiquement isolante entre les deux profilés intérieur 106 et extérieur 105 du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique, quelle que soit la position de la serrure 102 par rapport à ce dernier. Les champs longitudinaux de la têtière 103 font avantageusement bordés par les parties supérieures des branches du U du profilé 120 afin de garantir une bonne isolation thermique et éventuellement comme dit plus haut, un positionnement latéral de la serrure 102. Il sera noté que les moyens d'appui isolants 116 sont dans l'exemple représenté, solidaires des moyens de positionnement 117 de la serrure 102, et coulissants de ce fait le long du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique avec ces derniers.Thus, the insulating support means 116 cooperate with the positioning means 117 of the lock 102, in order to provide a means for adjusting the position of the lock 102 along the section 104 with a thermal break, establishing a connection thermally insulating between the two inner profiles 106 and outer 105 of the profile 104 thermal break, regardless of the position of the lock 102 relative thereto. The longitudinal fields of the headrest 103 are advantageously bordered by the upper parts of the branches of the U of the profile 120 to ensure good thermal insulation and possibly as mentioned above, a lateral positioning of the lock 102. It will be noted that the means of insulating supports 116 are in the example shown, secured to the positioning means 117 of the lock 102, and thus sliding along the section 104 to thermal break with them.

Comme représenté dans l'exemple, les moyens de liaison rigide 118 des moyens de positionnement 117 de la serrure 102 le long du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique comportent avantageusement au moins une liaison 124 de type vis-écrou, de préférence au moins deux liaisons 124 placées aux deux extrémités de la têtière 103 respectivement, conférant une liaison complète rigide par adhérence de la serrure 102 le long du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique, comme cela va être expliqué ci-dessous. Un des éléments des deux liaisons 124 de type vis-écrou, par exemple les écrous 125, est lié au profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique selon une liaison comportant un degré de liberté en translation suivant la longueur du profilé. Par degré de liberté en translation, on entend ici une possibilité de déplacement en translation des écrous 125 le long du profilé 104 avant la fixation de la serrure 102, c'est à dire avant le serrage des écrous 125, lesquels, une fois serrés, se trouvent fixés rigidement au profilé 104. Les écrous 125 adoptent à cet effet chacun par exemple une forme de bride en U, s'emboîtant localement sur la base du U formé par le profilé 120 et à l'extérieur de celle-ci, comme représenté sur les figures 2 et 3, les écrous 125 étant prisonniers dans une rainure 126 du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique, et mobiles dans celle-ci le long du profilé 104. La rainure 126 est avantageusement formée par deux encoches en vis-à-vis réalisées respectivement dans les profilés extérieur 105 et intérieur 106 du profilé 104, en sorte que chacun des profilés 105 et 106 se trouve pris entre le profilé 120, plus exactement les épaulements inférieurs 121 de ce dernier, et les parties d'extrémités des branches de chaque écrou-bride 125 en forme de U. Les zones des profilés 105 et 106 respectivement en prises entre le profilé 120 et les écrou-brides 125 sont constituées par exemple par deux nervures 127, 128 en vis à vis et s'étendant respectivement l'une vers l'autre à partir des profilés 105 et 106, comme représenté sur la figure 2.As shown in the example, the rigid connection means 118 of the positioning means 117 of the lock 102 along the thermal break profile 104 advantageously comprise at least one connection 124 of screw-nut type, preferably at least two links 124 placed at the two ends of the headrest 103 respectively, conferring a complete rigid connection by adhesion of the lock 102 along the section 104 thermal break, as will be explained below. One of the elements of the two connections 124 of the screw-nut type, for example the nuts 125, is connected to the section 104 thermal break in a link having a degree of freedom in translation along the length of the profile. By degree of freedom in translation, here is meant a possibility of displacement in translation of the nuts 125 along the section 104 before the lock 102 is fixed, that is to say before the nuts 125 are tightened, which, once tightened, are fixed rigidly to the profile 104. The nuts 125 adopt for this purpose each for example a U-shaped flange, fitting locally on the base of the U formed by the profile 120 and outside thereof, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, the nuts 125 being trapped in a groove 126 of the section 104 thermal break, and movable in it along the section 104. The groove 126 is advantageously formed by two notches in vis- in-screw made respectively in the outer profiles 105 and 106 inside the profile, so that each of the profiles 105 and 106 is caught between the profile 120, more precisely the lower shoulders 121 of the latter, and the end portions of the branches of each U-shaped flange nut 125. The zones of the profiles 105 and 106 respectively engaged between the profile 120 and the flange nut 125 are constituted for example by two ribs 127, 128 facing each other and extending respectively towards one another from the profiles 105 and 106, as shown in FIG.

Chaque écrou-bride 125 est de préférence solidaire des moyens de positionnement 117 de la serrure 102 via une liaison 130 par emboîtement comportant au moins un degré de liberté en translation dans l'axe de la liaison 124 vis-écrou, avant serrage de la liaison 124 vis-écrou. Ce degré de liberté en translation peut être obtenu par un pion 133 saillant formé à l'intérieur de la base du U de l'écrou-bride 125, adapté à pénétrer dans un trou 132 correspondant réalisé dans le profilé 120. Un trou 132 est réalisé dans le profilé 120 en face de chaque trou de la têtière 103 destiné à loger une vis 131 de fixation qui doit se visser dans un écrou-bride 125.Each flange nut 125 is preferably secured to the positioning means 117 of the lock 102 via a connection 130 by interlocking having at least one degree of freedom in translation in the axis of the link 124 screw-nut, before tightening the connection. 124 screw-nut. This degree of freedom in translation can be obtained by a protruding pin 133 formed inside the base of the U of the flange nut 125, adapted to penetrate into a corresponding hole 132 formed in the profile 120. A hole 132 is made in the profile 120 opposite each hole of the headrest 103 for housing a fixing screw 131 which must be screwed into a flange nut 125.

Un èxèmple de mise en prise de la serrure 102 sur les deux profilés extérieur 105 et intérieur 106 du profilé à rupture de pont thermique s'effectue avantageusement de la manière suivante :

  • les écrous 125 sont insérés dans le profilé 104, plus particulièrement dans la rainure 126 de celui-ci prévue à cet effet, et le profilé 120 isolant de positionnement de la serrure 102 est emboîté sur les écrous 125 via les pions 133,
  • l'ensemble écrous 125 et profilé 120 est glissé le long du profilé 104 jusqu'à l'ouverture réalisée dans la barrette 107 du profilé 104 pour le passage de la serrure 102,
  • la serrure 102 avec sa têtière 103 est ensuite mise en place dans le profilé 120 de positionnement, et les vis 131 sont mises en place, approchées et serrées légèrement de sorte que la serrure 102 puisse se déplacer le long du profilé sous l'effort d'un opérateur, en frottant sur celui-ci,
  • dans cette état, la position de la serrure 102 est affinée pour être accordée avec la position de la gâche le cas échéant, puis les vis 131 sont serrées complètement, la serrure 102 étant alors fixée rigidement par adhérence contre les profilés 105 et 106; à cet effet, le serrage des vis 131 doit permettre un blocage des nervures 127 du profilé 104, en prise entre la têtière 103, via le profilé 120, et les écrou-brides 125.
An embodiment of engagement of the lock 102 on the two outer profiles 105 and inner 106 of the thermal break profile advantageously takes place in the following manner:
  • the nuts 125 are inserted in the profile 104, more particularly in the groove 126 thereof provided for this purpose, and the insulating positioning profile 120 of the lock 102 is fitted on the nuts 125 via the pins 133,
  • the set of nuts 125 and profile 120 is slid along the section 104 until the opening made in the bar 107 of the profile 104 for the passage of the lock 102,
  • the lock 102 with its headrest 103 is then put in place in the positioning section 120, and the screws 131 are put in place, approximated and tightened slightly so that the lock 102 can move along the profile under the force of 'an operator, rubbing on it,
  • in this state, the position of the lock 102 is refined to be tuned with the position of the keeper if necessary, then the screws 131 are tightened completely, the lock 102 then being rigidly fixed by adhesion against the sections 105 and 106; for this purpose, the tightening of the screws 131 must allow a locking of the ribs 127 of the profile 104, engaged between the headrest 103, via the profile 120, and the nut-flanges 125.

Ainsi, comme expliqué ci-dessus, les moyens d'appui isolants 116 et les moyens de fixation 115 de la serrure via la têtière 103 coopèrent avantageusement entre eux en vue de permettre un déplacement simultané des moyens d'appui isolants 116, des moyens de fixation 115 de la têtière 103, et de la serrure 102, afin de permettre un réglage de la position de la serrure 102 le long du profilé 104 à rupture de pont thermique.Thus, as explained above, the insulating support means 116 and the fastening means 115 of the lock via the headrest 103 advantageously cooperate with each other in order to allow simultaneous displacement of the insulating support means 116, means of fixing 115 of the headrest 103, and the lock 102, to allow adjustment of the position of the lock 102 along the section 104 thermal break.
