Definitions
- the subject of the invention is a two-function roof window - tilting and turning - with a tilting axis at the upper element of the window frame, and a turning axis at the central part of the window sash.
- This window enables only one of these functions to be applied at a time when opening. When pulling the upper part of the sash it is tilting, while when pressing its bottom part its is turning.
- the window when opened to act in any function, is locked against intended or accidental starting the other function or changing its function during that opening.
- a known two-function tilting and turning roof window has a window frame in which the sash is fitted into an intermediate frame. That intermediate frame consists of three elements connected together under straight angles and lies between the window frame and the sash when the window is closed.
- the intermediate frame swings about a tilting hinge at the upper part of the side elements of the window frame.
- the window sash In the intermediate frame, at the free ends of its side parts, swings the window sash so that the swinging hinge is located at half sash height and does not change its position when the sash is turned, remaining at a constant small distance from the glazing surface.
- the sash is blocked against turning about the intermediate frame by a lock which is placed at the upper elements of the sash and the intermediate frame.
- the tilting function of the roof window is being actuated upon unlocking a handle at the bottom part of the window, which frees the connection of the intermediate frame to the window frame by exerting a pressure on the lower part of the sash.
- the intermediate frame connected with the sash by the locking element moves then together with the sash. Pulling the handle of the element locking the sash to the intermediate frame, when the window is already tilted, causes that both functions of the window are then active, and the sash can be turned between the arms of the intermediate frame lifted above the roof surface. In such a situation the connection of the window parts loses its required stiffness and stability, which loss is undesirable and can be dangerous to the user.
- the turning function of the roof window is being actuated by unlocking the handle at the lower part of the window and releasing the connection of the sash to the intermediate frame by pulling the grip of the locking element at the upper element of the sash.
- the sash can be swung about both the window frame and the intermediate frame resting within the window frame under the weight of the sash. Exerting then a pressure on the central part of the sash will cause raising the sash on the intermediate frame above the roof surface, like on an outrigger. In such a situation the interconnection of the window parts loses the necessary rigidity and stability, like in the case described above.
- the construction two-function, tilting and turning roof window - as described above - enables applying the tilting function of the window when pressing on to the lower part of the sash, or applying its turning function when pulling the grip on the upper part of the sash, but that window has no safety device against actuating both opening functions at the same time when the window is open.
- the aim of the invention is achieving a two-function tilting and turning roof window in which the wanted tilting function is achieved by pressing on to the bottom part of the sash, and the turning function by pulling the upper part of the sash, but enabling only one usage function at a time, because the other function is then automatically locked and cannot be started when the window is opened.
- the two-function tilting and turning window according the invention has a window frame in which the sash is set by way of intermediate arms.
- the upper ends of the intermediate arms tilt in the side elements of the window frame about an axis close at its upper element, and the sash swings about its central axis at the bottom ends of the intermediate arms.
- the window is fitted at its both sides with symmetrical self-locking systems, each of which has a set of elements automatically locking the tilting function when the sash is slightly displaced from the window frame due to swinging the sash, and a set of elements automatically locking the turning function when the sash is slightly moved from the window frame due to tilting it.
- Both locking sets are interconnected by connecting means, which warrant their alternative function.
- Each of the self-locking sets has also a retaining mechanism which locks one usage function - by stopping the movable element of that locking set, the elements of which remain in mutual contact when the window is closed - when the window is being opened in order use the other function.
- the two-function tilting and turning window according the invention is shown in examples of execution, in which Rg. 1, 5, and 9 describe the operating principle of the self-locking system in three execution variants, Rg. 2, 6, and 10 present the same self-locking systems in exploded view, Fig. 3, 7, and 11 show the same self-locking systems fitted to the elements of the roof window when seen from the window frame side, and Rg. 4, 8, and 12 when seen from the side of the sash.
- the double-function tilting and turning window has its window frame 1 connected along its side elements with the fixture 2 by means of the fixing parts M and screws W, and the sash 3 connected by the intermediate arms 4 with the window frame 1.
- the intermediate arms 4 are at one end connected with the Mure 2 in a tilting way about the axis 5 located close to the upper element of the window frame 1.
- the sash 3 is connected 6 with the other ends of the intermediate arms 4 in a turning wav. about the turning axis.
- the turning axis 6 is located at the central part of the sash 3, not far from the glazing surface and does not change its position in respect to the window frame 1 within some ranges of the opening angle of the window.
