Definitions

  • the invention relates to a ventilation device, comprising a ventilation housing that is provided with one or more profiles that are contiguous to an indoor environment and one or more profiles that are contiguous to an outdoor environment, comprising an air through-flow channel, and comprising a rebate of a window, the ventilation housing being provided for installation in said rebate, the rebate comprising a stop and/or a glazing bead, and the window being provided so as to screen off the abovementioned indoor environment from the abovementioned outdoor environment.
  • a known problem in the case of ventilation devices in dwellings is that when it rains and when the air pressure of the indoor environment is lower than that of the outdoor environment, for example as a result of a wind force upon the ventilation device, water enters by way of the ventilation device, either going into the ventilation device itself, or going into the building. This water penetration is undesirable. Similarly, water penetration is also a problem also in the case of, for example, ventilation devices in vehicles.
  • a ventilation device usually comprises a provision (a valve, slide etc.) making it possible for the air through-flow channel to be closed off in order to prevent water penetration.
  • NL 1 025 600 discloses a ventilation device provided with a pivoting valve equipped to regulate the maximum airflow rate at a given pressure difference over the ventilation unit, or to shut off the airflow completely.
  • a sealing element is provided here, which sealing element ensures that the air through-flow channel is airtight and watertight when the pivoting valve is closed.
  • closing the ventilation device prevents the achievement of the initial aim of the ventilation device, namely the permanent supply of fresh air. Consequently, a solution is needed to avoid water penetration in any open position of the ventilation device.
  • a controllable ventilation device for natural air supply must be watertight in the fully open position up to a pressure difference of 20 Pa and in the closed position up to 150 Pa.
  • the term controllable ventilation device is meant to convey a ventilation device in the case of which the flow of fresh air being supplied by means of the ventilation device at a given pressure difference can be adjusted.
  • European standard EN 13141-1 which in turn refers to one of the methods described in European standard EN 1027.
  • the pressure difference over the ventilation device is raised in stages to the pressure difference at which water goes through the grille. This final pressure difference determines the pressure difference up to which the ventilation device is watertight.
  • a known way of increasing the watertightness of ventilation devices is to screen off the inlet opening of the ventilation device sufficiently.
  • Such a screen can be in the form of an external cap.
  • Embodiments of such an external cap can be found in, for example, NL 1 018 166 , WO 03/060387 A1 , EP 0 730 126 A2 , EP 0 327 186 and EP 1 050 659 .
  • a screen is provided in each case on the outside of the ventilation device, in both WO 03/060387 A1 and EP 0 730 126 A2 it being stated in the description of the figures that said screen serves as a weather screen. It is stated in EP 0 327 186 that water penetration into the ventilation device is limited by the fact that the inlet opening is directed downwards.
  • Another screen is in the form of an external grille, comprising a set of horizontal slats that are downwardly inclined towards the outside.
  • a grille is described in, for example, GB 2 276 235 A and GB 2 285 860 .
  • this grille is furthermore provided on the bottom with downwardly directed teeth to drain off the rainwater easily.
  • the grille of GB 2 285 860 is provided with grooves for each slat, with openings connected to respective drainage channels and a common vertical drainage pipe.
  • Such external grilles are, however, an expensive solution for increasing the watertightness of ventilation devices.
  • Another way of increasing the watertightness of ventilation devices is to increase the internal flow resistance of the ventilation device. When the resistance is increased for the airflow, it stands to reason that the resistance to water penetration is also increased.
  • the internal flow resistance of ventilation devices in the case of known solutions is increased by increasing the length of the air through-flow channel.
  • the internal flow resistance of ventilation devices in the case of known solutions can be increased by making the air through-flow channel less streamlined, for example by providing projecting edges or lips, or by providing rising parts.
  • the Z-shaped cross section of the slats of GB 1 045 132 provides, for example, not only an extension of the air through-flow channel, but also a less streamlined through-flow channel, since with the Z-shape the streamlining is disrupted abruptly a number of times.
  • the air through-flow channel is not only extended, but is also less streamlined.
  • the zigzag path formed by slats in DE 103 52 113 also combines these two solutions.
  • GB 1 202 450 , BE 1012000 and JP 11336442 disclose ventilation devices in which the internal flow resistance is increased solely by making the air through-flow channel less streamlined.
  • GB 1 202 450 and BE 1012000 projecting edges are provided on the slats that together form an air through-flow channel.
  • JP 11336442 a less streamlined air through-flow channel is obtained by providing said air through-flow channel with rising parts.
  • the object of this invention is therefore to provide a ventilation device comprising a ventilation housing that is provided with one or more profiles that are contiguous to an indoor environment and one or more profiles that are contiguous to an outdoor environment, comprising an air through-flow channel, and comprising a rebate of a window, the ventilation housing being provided for installation in said rebate, the rebate comprising a stop and/or a glazing bead, and the window being provided so as to screen off the abovementioned indoor environment from the abovementioned outdoor environment, which ventilation device can satisfactorily prevent water penetration from the outdoor environment to the indoor environment at various degrees of inclination of the ventilation device.
  • a ventilation device comprising a ventilation housing that is provided with one or more profiles that are contiguous to an indoor environment and one or more profiles that are contiguous to an outdoor environment, comprising an air through-flow channel, and comprising a rebate of a window, the ventilation housing being provided for installation in said rebate, the rebate comprising a stop and/or a glazing bead, the window being provided so as to screen off the abovementioned indoor environment from the abovementioned outdoor environment, and the abovementioned one or more profiles of the ventilation housing that are contiguous to the indoor environment running on in their longitudinal direction until behind the corresponding glazing bead or stop of the rebate.
  • said ventilation device is provided with end pieces, which are provided so as to at least partially screen off the ventilation housing at the level of the rebate, said end pieces screening off the ends of the ventilation housing at the level of the one or more profiles that are contiguous to the outdoor environment, and said end pieces running on into the respective rebate in which the ventilation housing is installed.
  • the end pieces at least partially screen off the ends of the ventilation housing in the rebate.
  • the part of the end pieces that at least partially screens off the ends of the ventilation housing in the respective rebate is preferably made narrower than the width of the stop or the glazing bead that is contiguous to the indoor environment.
  • said ventilation device comprises a rotating or sliding valve, by means of which the air through-flow channel can be closed off.
  • a rotating or sliding valve apart from its function of regulating the airflow through the air through-flow channel, has the additional function of preventing water penetration.
  • the air through-flow channel of yet a further embodiment of a ventilation device according to this invention is provided with obstructions that disrupt the airflow through the air through-flow channel.
  • Yet another embodiment of a ventilation device according to this invention comprises an external cap, which screens off the air through-flow channel on the side of the outdoor environment.
  • a ventilation device according to this invention is preferably provided with one or more drainage grooves.
  • the rebate of a ventilation device of the type described above preferably forms part of a vertical or sloping window.
  • Said sloping window can in this case be provided specifically for fitting in a veranda roof.
  • the embodiment of a ventilation device (1) according to this invention comprises the rebate (7) of a window that screens off an indoor environment (2) from an outdoor environment (3).
  • the abovementioned rebate (7) comprises a stop (8) on the side of the indoor environment (2).
  • This ventilation device (1) comprises a ventilation housing that is provided for installation in the abovementioned rebate.
  • Said ventilation housing is provided with a profile (4) that is contiguous to the indoor environment (2).
  • Said profile (4) that is contiguous to the indoor environment (2) runs on in the longitudinal direction until behind the stop (8), so that any connection between this profile (4) and an end piece (9) is in the rebate (7), and water therefore cannot penetrate into the indoor environment (2) along this route.
  • This ventilation housing furthermore comprises a number of profiles (5) that are contiguous to the outdoor environment (3) and said ventilation housing is provided with end pieces (9) that partially screen off the ends of the ventilation housing at the level of the rebate (7).
  • Said end pieces (9) here screen off the ends of the ventilation housing at the level of the profiles (5) that are contiguous to the outdoor environment (3) and run on into the rebate (7) in which the ventilation housing is installed.
  • Said end pieces (9) could also be designed here in such a way that they likewise at least partially screen off the ends of the ventilation housing in the rebate (7).
  • the part of said end pieces (9) that then at least partially screens off the ends of the ventilation housing in the rebate (7) is preferably made narrower than the width of the stop (8), so that the connection between the end pieces (9) and the ventilation housing on the side of the indoor environment (2) is in the rebate (7), with the result that water cannot penetrate into the indoor environment (2) by way of this connection.
  • said ventilation device is furthermore provided with a number of aids from the prior art, namely a rotating valve (10), an external cap (11) and drainage grooves (12).
