Abstract

The frame construction for fixed (3) or opening (2) windows comprises an exterior profile (4, 5) which clips on to the sides (10) of inserts (6) attached to the frame and is fixed to them with adhesive (7).

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Rahmenkonstruktion für Fenster und/oder Türen mit einem Rahmen, insbesondere Blendrahmen und/oder Flügelrahmen, einem Aufsatzprofil, welches an der Außenseite des Rahmens über eine Verbindungseinrichtung mit letzterem montierbar ist gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruch 1.The present invention relates to a frame construction for windows and / or doors with a frame, in particular frame and / or sash, an attachment profile which is mountable on the outside of the frame via a connecting device with the latter according to the preamble of claim 1.

Im Stand der Technik sind Fenster und Türen mit Blend- und Flügelrahmen aus Holz oder Kunststoff bekannt, bei denen der Blendrahmen sowie ggf. Flügelrahmen auf der Fassadenaußenseite mit einer Verkleidung aus Metallaufsatzprofilen, insbesondere Aluminiumaufsatzprofilen, abgedeckt sind. Die Verkleidung dient hierbei als Wetter- und Sichtschutz für den Blendrahmen sowie ggf. Flügelrahmen, wodurch der Witterungseinfluss am Blend- bzw. Flügelrahmen reduziert werden kann.In the prior art windows and doors with glare and sash made of wood or plastic are known in which the frame and possibly sash on the outside of the facade are covered with a panel of metal top sections, in particular aluminum top sections. The cladding serves as a weather and visual protection for the window frame and possibly casement, whereby the influence of weather on glare or sash can be reduced.

Zur Befestigung derartiger Verkleidungen werden herkömmlicherweise Halter eingesetzt, die entlang des Umfangs des Blend- bzw. Flügelrahmens an diesen vormontiert werden und mit der Verkleidung aus Aufsatzprofilen eine beispielsweise verrastende, verklemmende oder durch einen Hinterschnitt bewirkte Verbindung eingehen. Alle Halter müssen in exakter Ausrichtung am Blend- bzw. Flügelrahmen fixiert werden, um eine einwandfreie Verbindung, z.B. Verrastung der Verkleidung aus Aluminiumabschnittprofilen zu gewährleisten. Diese Art der Verbindung hat den Nachteil, dass eine Vielzahl von Haltern zur sicheren Fixierung des Aluminiumprofilrahmens benötigt wird. Daraus resultieren zum einen hohe Materialkosten, zum anderen aber auch hohe Montagekosten. Aus der GB 2 201 179 A ist eine Rahmenkonstruktion gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 bekannt. Ein schwalbenschwanzförmiger Einsatz wird hierbei seitlich in entsprechend geformte Nuten am Abdeckprofil eingeschoben. Anschließend wird Klebstoff auf den Einsatz aufgebracht und der Einsatz zusammen mit dem Abdeckprofil an der Außenseite des Rahmens befestigt.For the attachment of such panels holders are conventionally used, which are preassembled along the circumference of the glazing or sash to these and enter into the cladding of attachment profiles, for example, a latching, jamming or caused by an undercut connection. All holders must be fixed in the exact alignment of the sash or sash to ensure a perfect connection, eg locking the cladding of aluminum section profiles. This type of connection has the disadvantage that a plurality of holders for secure fixing of the aluminum profile frame is needed. This results in high material costs on the one hand and high assembly costs on the other. From the GB 2 201 179 A a frame construction according to the preamble of claim 1 is known. A dovetail-shaped insert is inserted laterally into correspondingly shaped grooves on the cover profile. Adhesive is then applied to the insert and the insert is fastened together with the cover profile to the outside of the frame.

Die DE OS 26 23 781 beschreibt ein Verfahren sowie Bauteile zum Ausrüsten insbesondere von Altbauten mit Kunststofffenstern. Innenseitig zu einem aus Holz bestehenden Fensterrahmen wird ein aus Kunststoff bestehender Blendrahmen befestigt. Zur außenseitigen Abdeckung des aus Holz bestehenden Fensterrahmens ist eine als Winkel ausgebildete Verkleidung vorgesehen, die sowohl über vorher am Fensterrahmen montierte Klemmleisten als auch über einen mit einem Rasterfuß ausgebildeten freien Schenkel, der in eine Nut des Blendrahmens eingreift und dort befestigt ist, fixiert wird. Die Klemmleisten gewährleisten ihre Klemmfunktion nur zusammen mit der äußeren Stirnseite des Fensterrahmens, auf dem sie befestigt werden.The DE OS 26 23 781 describes a method and components for equipping in particular old buildings with plastic windows. On the inside to a window frame consisting of wood, a plastic frame is attached. To the outside cover of the existing wooden window frame designed as an angle panel is provided which is fixed both via previously mounted on the window frame terminal strips as well as a trained with a grid foot free leg which engages in a groove of the frame and is fixed there. The terminal strips ensure their clamping function only together with the outer face of the window frame on which they are attached.

Die GB 2 398 336 A beschreibt eine Konstruktion, bei der ein über die gesamte Falztiefe verlaufender, einstückiger Rahmen mit einem in Innenbereich befindlichen Aufsatzprofil verklipst wird, welches mit einem fassadeninnenseitigen Holzrahmen verschraubt ist.
Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, eine gattungsgemäße Rahmenkonstruktion zur Verfügung zu stellen, welche bei sicherer Montage eines Aufsatzprofils am Rahmen eine Reduzierung der Materialkosten sowie Montagekosten ermöglicht.The GB 2 398 336 A describes a construction in which a running over the entire folding depth, one-piece frame is clipped with an in-line attachment profile, which is bolted to a facade inside wooden frame.
The object of the present invention is to provide a generic frame construction available, which allows for safe mounting of an attachment profile on the frame, a reduction of material costs and installation costs.

Die vorstehende Aufgabe wird bei der gattungsgemäßen Rahmenkonstruktion durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Die Erfindung ermöglicht es, auf einfache Weise ein Aufsatzprofil mit einem Rahmen zu verbinden, ohne das Halter verwendet werden müssen und ohne dass ausgiebige Ausrichtarbeiten bzw. Korrekturarbeiten notwendig sind. Mit dem Einsatz wird ferner eine definierte Anlagefläche für die Verklebung zwischen Aufsatzprofil und Rahmen geschaffen. Haltbarkeitsprobleme der Verklebung aufgrund unterschiedlichem Wärmeausdehnungskoeffizienten zwischen Rahmen, welcher aus Holz oder Kunststoff besteht, und Aufsatzprofil, welches aus Metall, insbesondere Aluminium besteht, können hierdurch vermieden werden. Der betreffende Einsatz ist am Aufsatzprofil einfach zu montieren.The above object is achieved in the generic frame construction by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1. The invention makes it possible to easily connect an attachment profile with a frame, without the holder must be used and without extensive alignment or correction work is necessary. With the use of a defined contact surface for the bonding between attachment profile and frame is also created. Durability problems of bonding due to different coefficients of thermal expansion between frame, which consists of wood or plastic, and attachment profile, which consists of metal, in particular aluminum, can be avoided thereby. The insert in question is easy to install on the attachment profile.

Erfindungsgemäß bilden das Aufsatzprofil und der Einsatz eine Montageeinheit. Sie können daher in vorteilhafter Weise vor dem Aufbringen des Aufsatzprofils von der Vorderseite des Aufnahmekanals aus mittels einer Klipsverbindung zusammengefügt werden. Dies erleichtert die Handhabung bei der Montage.According to the invention, the attachment profile and the insert form an assembly unit. They can therefore be advantageously assembled by applying a Klipsverbindung before applying the attachment profile from the front of the receiving channel. This facilitates handling during assembly.

Auch die Klebeschicht kann bereits Teil der vorgenannten Montageeinheit sein, so dass die Montageeinheit zur Verbindung mit dem Rahmen lediglich nur noch auf diesen aufgesetzt und mit Anpressdruck beaufschlagt zu werden braucht.Also, the adhesive layer may already be part of the aforementioned assembly unit, so that the mounting unit only needs to be placed on the latter and connected to contact pressure for connection to the frame.

Vorzugsweise ist der aus dem Aufsatzprofil aufgebaute, gesamte Rahmen einschließlich der Eckverbindungen als eine solche Montageeinheit vorgesehen.Preferably, the entire frame constructed of the attachment profile, including the corner connections, is provided as such an assembly unit.

Zweckmäßigerweise weist der Einsatz beidseitig eine Ausnehmung auf, in die ein Teil des Aufsatzprofils eingreift. Der Einsatz kann infolge dessen bei bereits bestehenden Aufsatzprofilen, ohne dass diese in ihrer Form geändert werden müssen, verwendet werden. Die Verbindung zwischen Aufsatzprofil und Einsatz ist derartig ausgeführt, dass eine Klemmwirkung vorgesehen ist derart, dass diese ein Herausfallen des Einsatzes am Aufsatzprofil verhindert, aber ein werkzeugloses Verschieben des Einsatzes entlang des Aufsatzprofils erlaubt. Demzufolge kann der Einsatz am Aufsatzprofil in einfacher Weise in Position gebracht werden, ohne dass zusätzliche Fixierungsmaßnahmen notwendig wären.Expediently, the insert has a recess on both sides, in which a part of the attachment profile engages. As a result, the insert can be used on already existing attachment profiles without having to change their shape. The connection between attachment profile and insert is designed such that a clamping action is provided such that it prevents falling out of the insert on the attachment profile, but allows a tool-free displacement of the insert along the attachment profile. As a result, the insert on the attachment profile can be easily positioned without the need for additional fixation measures.

Im montierten Zustand steht der Einsatz im Vergleich zum jeweiligen Haltesteg nur geringfügig in Richtung zur Fassadeninnenseite über. Die konstruktive Ausgestaltung der Rahmenkonstruktion ermöglicht es daher, geringfügige Aufbauhöhen zu erzielen.In the mounted state, the insert is only slightly opposite the respective retaining web in the direction of the façade inside. The structural design of the frame construction therefore makes it possible to achieve minor construction heights.

Zur Vermeidung einer nachteiligen Beeinträchtigung der Klebung im fertig montierten Zustand ist gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung es zweckmäßigerweise vorgesehen, dass der Einsatz eine Form aufweist, die einen Längenausgleich zwischen Aufsatzprofil und Klebeschicht im fertig montierten Zustand ermöglicht.To avoid an adverse effect on the bond in the assembled state, it is expediently provided according to the present invention for the insert to have a shape which enables a length compensation between the attachment profile and the adhesive layer in the completely assembled state.

Dies kann zweckmäßigerweise dadurch erfolgen, dass im fertig montierten Zustand zwischen dem inneren Ende der Ausnehmung und mindestens einem Steg ein Hohlraum zur Aufnahme des Längenausgleichs verbleibt.This can conveniently be done by leaving a cavity for receiving the length compensation in the finished assembled state between the inner end of the recess and at least one web.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung umfasst der Einsatz an seinem einen Ende einen Fuß mit einer Ausnehmung und an seinem gegenüberliegenden Ende eine Nase, insbesondere Rastnase. Hierdurch wird es möglich, den Einsatz im Bereich des Fußes entlang der einen Seite des Aufnahmekanals anzusetzen und mittels einer Verschwenkbewegung im Bereich der Nase zu verrasten.According to a further embodiment of the present invention, the insert comprises at one end a foot with a recess and at its opposite end a nose, in particular latching lug. This makes it possible to set the insert in the region of the foot along one side of the receiving channel and to lock by means of a pivoting movement in the region of the nose.

Aufgrund der Rastnase wird bereits ein Ausgleichseffekt bei Längenausdehnung des Aufsatzprofils erreicht.Due to the locking lug, a compensating effect is already achieved with longitudinal expansion of the attachment profile.

Zweckmäßigerweise kann der Fuß einen Hohlraum aufweisen, wodurch dieser Effekt noch verstärkt werden kann.Conveniently, the foot may have a cavity, whereby this effect can be enhanced.

Zweckmäßigerweise deckt der Einsatz einen Teil der Rahmenlänge entlang einer Seite, d.h. zwischen zwei Eckverbindungen, in einem Bereich von 20 % - 70 %, vorzugsweise 25 % - 60 % der diesbezüglich gesamten Rahmenlänge ab. Dies genügt für eine sichere Verbindung von Aufsatzprofil zu Rahmen.Conveniently, the insert covers part of the frame length along one side, ie between two corner joints, in a range of 20% -70%, preferably 25% -60%, of the total frame length in this regard. This is sufficient for a secure connection of attachment profile to frame.

Als Klebeschicht ist zweckmäßigerweise ein beidseitig klebendes Klebeband vorgesehen. Dieses erlaubt eine einfache Vormontage bei sicherer Verbindung und guter Handhabbarkeit.As an adhesive layer, a double-sided adhesive tape is expediently provided. This allows easy pre-assembly with secure connection and good handling.

Der Einsatz besteht zweckmäßigerweise aus Kunststoff, vorzugsweise aus PVC. Wenn der Rahmen ebenfalls aus Kunststoff besteht, wird hierdurch eine gewisse Anpassung der Ausdehnungseigenschaften der wärme- bzw. kältebedingten Ausdehnungseigenschaften erreicht. Ein Lösen der Klebung aufgrund großer Wärmeschwankungen kann daher wirksam ausgeschlossen werden.The insert is suitably made of plastic, preferably PVC. If the frame is also made of plastic, this achieves a certain adaptation of the expansion properties of the heat or cold-caused expansion properties. A release of the bond due to large heat fluctuations can therefore be effectively excluded.

Bezugsziffer 1 in Fig. 1 kennzeichnet einen Flügelrahmen 2 sowie Blendrahmen 3 umfassendes Fenster. Sowohl der Flügelrahmen 2 als auch der Blendrahmen 3 bestehen bei der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Ausführungsform aus Kunststoff.Reference numeral 1 in Fig. 1 indicates a sash 2 and window frame 3 comprehensive window. Both the sash 2 and the frame 3 are in the in Fig. 1 illustrated embodiment of plastic.

Im jeweiligen Außenbereich von Flügelrahmen 2 sowie Blendrahmen 3 ist ein Aufsatzprofil 4 bzw. 5, z.B. ein Aluminiumaufsatzprofil, am Flügelrahmen 2 sowie Blendrahmen 3 befestigt, so dass das Aufsatzprofil 4 bzw. 5 den Außenbereich sowie Überschlagbereich des Flügelrahmens 2 bzw. Blendrahmens 3 vor Witterungseinflüssen schützt.In the respective outer area of wing frame 2 and window frame 3, an attachment profile 4 or 5, e.g. an aluminum attachment profile, attached to the casement 2 and frame 3, so that the attachment profile 4 and 5 protects the outdoor area and rollover area of the casement 2 and the frame 3 from the weather.

Zur Befestigung von Aufsatzprofil 4 bzw. 5 ist ein Einsatz 6, der ebenfalls aus Kunststoff, vorzugsweise PVC, besteht, als Montagehilfe vorgesehen. Der Einsatz 6 bildet eine Anlagefläche 10, so dass der Einsatz 6 unter Zwischenlage einer Klebeschicht 7 an der jeweiligen Außenseite des Flügelrahmens 2 bzw. Blendrahmens 3 anliegt.For attachment of attachment profile 4 and 5, an insert 6, which is also made of plastic, preferably PVC, provided as an assembly aid. The insert 6 forms a contact surface 10, so that the insert 6 rests with the interposition of an adhesive layer 7 on the respective outer side of the sash frame 2 or window frame 3.

Bei der Klebeschicht 7 handelt es sich zweckmäßigerweise um ein zweiseitig klebendes Klebeband.The adhesive layer 7 is expediently a double-sided adhesive tape.

Der Einsatz 6 ist als Strangpressprofil vorgesehen. Er weist beidseitig angeordnete Ausnehmungen 11 auf, in die jeweils das Ende der abgewinkelten Stege 13 eingreift. Im Bereich der jeweiligen Ausnehmung 11 ist im montierten Zustand ein Leerraum 19 vorgesehen, der dazu dient, eine Längenänderung, z.B. eine Verkürzung des Abstandes der Stirnseite der beiden Stege 13 zueinander aufzunehmen. Hierdurch wird eine nachteilige Beeinträchtigung der Klebung aufgrund temperaturbedingter Längenänderungen vermieden.The insert 6 is provided as an extruded profile. It has recesses 11 arranged on both sides, in each of which the end of the angled webs 13 engages. In the region of the respective recess 11, a void 19 is provided in the mounted state, which serves to a change in length, e.g. a shortening of the distance of the end face of the two webs 13 to receive each other. As a result, an adverse effect on the bond due to temperature-induced changes in length is avoided.

Der Einsatz 6 befindet sich zum Teil innerhalb des durch die beiden Stege 13 gebildeten Aufnahmekanals 12. Er überragt diesen Aufnahmekanal zur Fassadeninnenseite hin nur geringfügig.The insert 6 is located partly within the receiving channel 12 formed by the two webs 13. It projects beyond this receiving channel to the facade inside only slightly.

Konstruktionsbedingt kann der Einsatz 6 in einfacher Weise seitlich auf das Aufsatzprofil 4 bzw. 5 aufgeschoben werden. Dieses Aufschieben erfolgt unter Einsatz einer gewissen per Hand aufzubringenden Kraft, so dass ein gegen Herausfallen sichernder Halteeffekt gewährleistet wird.Due to the design of the insert 6 can be pushed laterally on the attachment profile 4 and 5 in a simple manner. This postponement takes place under Use of a certain applied by hand force, so that a secure against falling out holding effect is guaranteed.

Aufgrund der beidseitigen Ausnehmungen 11 kann der Einsatz 6 mit herkömmlichen Aufsatzprofilen 4, 5 verbaut werden. An der Außenseite des nach innen orientierten Einsatzes 6 ist die Klebeschicht 7 in Form eines beidseitig klebenden Klebebandes aufgebracht.Due to the two-sided recesses 11, the insert 6 with conventional attachment profiles 4, 5 are installed. On the outside of the inwardly oriented insert 6, the adhesive layer 7 is applied in the form of a double-sided adhesive tape.

Das Aufsatzprofil 4 bzw. 5, der Einsatz 6 sowie die Klebeschicht 7 bilden zweckmäßigerweise eine gemeinsame Montageeinheit, die in vorteilhafter Weise vormontierbar werden kann.The attachment profile 4 or 5, the insert 6 and the adhesive layer 7 expediently form a common assembly unit, which can be pre-assembled in an advantageous manner.

In Fig. 3A wird eine andersartige Ausgestaltung des Einsatzes 6 beschrieben. Der Einsatz 6 umfasst an seinem einen Ende eine Nase 14 in Form einer Rastnase und an seinem gegenüberliegenden Ende einen Fuß 17, so dass der Einsatz 6 mit der Nase 14 an einem Steg 13 und mit dem gegenüberliegenden Fuß 17 am anderen Steg 13 anliegt.In Fig. 3A another embodiment of the insert 6 is described. The insert 6 comprises at its one end a nose 14 in the form of a latching nose and at its opposite end a foot 17, so that the insert 6 rests with the nose 14 on a web 13 and with the opposite foot 17 on the other web 13.

Der Einsatz 6 wird gemäß der Ausgestaltung nach Fig. 3B zur Montage zunächst in Fig. 3B im unteren Steg 13 mittels der Ausnehmung 16 am Fuß 17 angesetzt und anschließend zum Aufsatzprofil 4 hin verschwenkt, wobei der Einsatz 6 im Bereich der Nase 14 am Steg 13 einrastet. Der eine Steg 13 befindet sich dann innerhalb der durch die Nase 14 gebildeten Ausnehmung 15, der gegenüberliegende Steg in der Ausnehmung 16 am Fuß 17.The insert 6 is according to the embodiment according to Fig. 3B for assembly first in Fig. 3B in the lower web 13 by means of the recess 16 attached to the foot 17 and then pivoted to the attachment section 4, wherein the insert 6 engages in the region of the nose 14 on the web 13. The one web 13 is then located within the recess 15 formed by the nose 14, the opposite web in the recess 16 on the foot 17th

Die Nase 14 gewährleistet eine längenausgleichenden Effekt. Dieser kann noch dadurch verstärkt werden, dass im Bereich des Fußes 17 ein Hohlraum 18 vorgesehen ist. Die Konstruktion des Einsatzes 6 bewirkt, dass temperaturbedingte Längenänderungen des Aufsatzprofils 4 vom Einsatz 6 formbedingt absorbiert werden und sich daher nicht nachteilig auf die Qualität der Klebung auswirken.The nose 14 ensures a length-compensating effect. This can be further enhanced by the fact that in the area of the foot 17, a cavity 18 is provided. The construction of the insert 6 causes temperature-induced changes in length of the attachment profile 4 from the insert 6 be absorbed due to the shape and therefore not adversely affect the quality of the bond.

Fig. 2 zeigt die Rückseite eines Rahmens aus einem Aufsatzprofil 4 für Flügel. Das Aufsatzprofil 4 ist in den Ecken auf Gehrung geschnitten, so dass sich eine Gehrungsfuge 8 einstellt. Die Verbindung der Teilabschnitte des Aufsatzprofils 4 erfolgt über Eckwinkel 9. Fig. 2 shows the back of a frame of an attachment profile 4 for wings. The attachment profile 4 is mitred in the corners so that a miter joint 8 is established. The connection of the sections of the attachment profile 4 via corner bracket. 9

An jeder Seite des Aufsatzprofils 4 wird vor der Montage des Aufsatzprofils und vor der Verbindung der einzelnen Abschnitte des Aufsatzprofils 4 ein Einsatz 6 seitlich in den Aufnahmekanal 12 eingeschoben. Wie in Fig. 2 dargestellt, befindet sich an jeder Seite des umlaufenden Aufsatzprofils 4 ein Einsatz 6. Der Einsatz 6 deckt im Wesentlichen etwa einen Bereich von 20 % - 70 %, vorzugsweise 25 % - 60 % der Länge der jeweiligen Seite des Aufsatzprofils 4 entlang des Aufnahmekanals 12 bis zur Gehrungsfuge 8 ab. Anschließend werden die Einzelteile des Aufsatzprofils 4 über die Eckwinkel 9 verbunden und ein Klebeband auf die innere Oberfläche des jeweiligen Einsatzes 6 aufgebracht. Anschließend wird die Montageeinheit, bestehend aus Aufsatzprofil 4, Eckwinkel 9, Einsatz 6 sowie Klebeschicht 7 an dem Flügelrahmen 2 des Fensters angepresst, wodurch eine geeignete Verbindung hergestellt wird.On each side of the attachment profile 4, an insert 6 is laterally inserted into the receiving channel 12 prior to assembly of the attachment profile and before the connection of the individual sections of the attachment profile 4. As in Fig. 2 The insert 6 covers substantially a range of 20% - 70%, preferably 25% - 60% of the length of the respective side of the attachment profile 4 along the receiving channel 12 bis to the miter 8 from. Subsequently, the individual parts of the attachment profile 4 are connected via the corner angle 9 and an adhesive tape is applied to the inner surface of the respective insert 6. Subsequently, the mounting unit consisting of attachment section 4, corner bracket 9, insert 6 and adhesive layer 7 is pressed against the casement 2 of the window, whereby a suitable connection is made.

Die Erfindung ermöglicht es, mit Hilfe einer einfachen Konstruktion eine schnell durchzuführende Montage unter gleichzeitiger Gewährleistung einer sicheren Verbindung durchzuführen. Die Erfindung stellt daher einen ganz besonderen Beitrag auf dem einschlägigen Gebiet der Technik dar.The invention makes it possible, with the help of a simple construction to perform a quick installation while ensuring a secure connection. The invention therefore represents a very special contribution in the relevant field of technology.
