Definitions
- the present invention concerns an extension for a building provided with at least one front wall and one or several side walls.
- the invention in particular concerns an extension designed for apartment buildings having several floors, whereby every floor is provided with its own balcony.
- the known extensions are usually provided with several windows and/or glass doors and possibly a transparent roof.
- An advantage of such extensions is that the covered space in the building can be enlarged without too many investments.
- the structure that is obtained is very open but nevertheless protected from weather conditions.
- a disadvantage of the known extensions is that, in case of good weather conditions and a blazing sun, because of the many windows and the large amount of incident light, an uncomfortable hothouse is created.
- Such balconies or terraces offer the occupants of the higher floors the occasion to get a breath of fresh air for example, or to enjoy some nice weather.
- the present invention aims to remedy one or several of the above-mentioned and other disadvantages.
- the present invention aims to use the available space as efficiently as possible, whereby a pleasant climate is created for the occupants, under good as well as bad weather conditions, or a good relation is obtained between the available open space and the available screened space.
- the present invention concerns an extension for a building which is at least provided with one front wall and one or several side walls, whereby this extension is erected such that it can move in relation to the building between a restricted position and an extended position and whereby the covered space inside the building is smaller in the restricted position than in the extended position.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention concerns an extension for a building provided with at least one front wall and one or several side walls.
- Without restricting the invention thereto, the invention in particular concerns an extension designed for apartment buildings having several floors, whereby every floor is provided with its own balcony.
- Naturally, according to the present state of the art, many extensions for buildings are already known in the form of fixed constructions, such as for example a veranda or a built-on sun room or even a garage or the like.
- The known extensions are usually provided with several windows and/or glass doors and possibly a transparent roof.
- An advantage of such extensions is that the covered space in the building can be enlarged without too many investments.
- Moreover, thanks to the many window frames, the structure that is obtained is very open but nevertheless protected from weather conditions.
- There is also much incidence of light, which also contributes to the quality of life inside the building, in particular when the weather conditions are bad.
- A disadvantage of the known extensions is that, in case of good weather conditions and a blazing sun, because of the many windows and the large amount of incident light, an uncomfortable hothouse is created.
- It is also known that apartment buildings with several floors are often provided with balconies or terraces surrounded by railings, which balconies or terraces serve as a sort of garden or open space for the higher floors.
- Such balconies or terraces offer the occupants of the higher floors the occasion to get a breath of fresh air for example, or to enjoy some nice weather.
- A disadvantage of such balconies and terraces, however, is that little use can be made of them in countries with a bad climate, since the weather conditions seldom allow for it, as a result of which a considerably large volume of the building is hardly or not at all used.
- The present invention aims to remedy one or several of the above-mentioned and other disadvantages.
- In particular, the present invention aims to use the available space as efficiently as possible, whereby a pleasant climate is created for the occupants, under good as well as bad weather conditions, or a good relation is obtained between the available open space and the available screened space.
- To this end, the present invention concerns an extension for a building which is at least provided with one front wall and one or several side walls, whereby this extension is erected such that it can move in relation to the building between a restricted position and an extended position and whereby the covered space inside the building is smaller in the restricted position than in the extended position.
- An advantage of such an extension according to the invention is that, under bad weather conditions, the covered space of the building which is screened from the weather conditions can be enlarged by simply putting the extension in the extended position.
- The other way round, more open space can be created when the weather is fine, such as for example on a terrace or balcony or the like, by putting the extension in the restricted position.
- In this way is obtained an optimal relation between the available open space and the available screened space under all weather conditions.
- It is clear that such a moving extension is particularly appropriate to be applied in apartment buildings, since the available space is usually rather limited there.
- According to a preferred embodiment of an extension according to the invention, the front wall of the extension is part of the front of the building in the restricted position, whereas this front wall is situated at a certain distance from the front of the building in the extended position, typically for example against the railing or the edge of a balcony or terrace of the building.
- An extension according to the invention in accordance with this embodiment is very suitable to be applied in buildings with terraces and balconies, since such a terrace or balcony can be easily screened from the weather conditions and can be transformed into an open space again by moving the extension from its respective extended into its restricted position.
- Moreover, as the front wall of the extension is part of the front of the building in the restricted position and connects to the railing or the edge in the extended position, a perfectly finished view is obtained under all circumstances.
- According to an even more preferred embodiment of an extension according to the invention, the walls of the extension are rigidly connected to one another, whereby the extension as a whole can shift inside the building.
- The side walls of the extension can hereby shift inside the building, for example over the side walls of the building, whereby the latter side walls serve as a guide for the aforesaid side walls.
- The extension can hereby move for example in a rolling manner over the ground, but also suspended to the ceiling and/or moving over rails on the side walls.
- Other embodiments are not excluded either.
- Such an embodiment of an extension according to the invention with a rigid connection of the walls is particularly practical, since its construction can be made very robust and all sorts of provisions can be made so as to automate the movement of the extension between the restricted and the extended position, for example provisions in the shape of electric motors which are driven with a remote control or the like.
- Alternatively, an extension according to the invention can also be made with walls that are hinge-mounted, whereby the extension can be put in the restricted position or the extended position by making the walls hinge in relation to one another.
- In this manner, it is for example possible to make a cheaper version with which the same practical result is nevertheless obtained, namely an optimal relation between the available open space and the available screened space under all sorts of weather conditions.
- All sorts of materials can be used to manufacture an extension according to the invention, such as for example wood, aluminium, metal, plastic and glass, or a combination of said materials, or any other material whatsoever.
- In order to better explain the characteristics of the invention, the following preferred embodiments of an extension for a building according to the invention are described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
figure 1 shows a first embodiment of an extension according to the invention, seen in perspective; -
figures 2 and3 represent the extension fromfigure 1 applied in an apartment building for use on a balcony and on a terrace respectively; -
figure 4 is a section according to the plane indicated by IV-IV infigure 1 when the extension is put in the extended position; -
figures 5 and6 are sections analogous tofigure 4 , when the extension is situated in an intermediate position and in the restricted position respectively; -
figure 7 shows an alternative embodiment of an extension according to the invention, seen in perspective, in particular of an embodiment with hinge-mounted panels; -
figures 8 to 10 are sections analogous tofigures 4 to 6 included representing the use of the embodiment with hinge-mounted panels on a balcony, in the extended position, an intermediate position and in the restricted position respectively; -
figures 11 and12 represent alternative situations in which an extension according to the invention is applied in the embodiment with hinge-mounted panels, put in the extended and in the restricted position respectively; and, -
figure 13 shows an extension according to the invention, seen in perspective, analogous tofigure 1 , in an embodiment with a number of provisions. - The
extension 1 according to the invention represented infigure 1 is provided with afront wall 2 and twoside walls - In the
front wall 2 are further providedwindows 5 anddoors 6, in thiscase sliding doors 6, which is also already known according to the present state of the art. - As is clearly shown in
figures 2 to 6 included, anextension 1 according to the invention is special in that theextension 1 can move in relation to a building 7. - In the case of
figure 2 , the building 7 is formed ofseveral floors 8 of which every upper floor is provided with abalcony 9 and whereby everyfloor 8 is provided with such a movingextension 1 according to the invention. - The
actual front 10 of the building 7 is hereby provided with anopening 11 over its entire width B on everyfloor 8, in which theextensions 1 are provided in a moving manner. - Every
extension 1 can hereby maximally move in theopening 10 between a restricted position, as represented infigure 2 for example for theextension 1 on the lower threefloors 8, and an extended position, as is represented infigure 2 for theextension 1 of thetop floor 8. - The
extension 1 is open on theside 12 opposite thefront wall 2. - Naturally, the idea is that persons can move as such inside the building 7 in the covered and screened
space 13 formed by thewalls 14 of the building 7 and thewalls extension 1. - For clarity's sake, the sections of
figures 4 to 6 included represent the transition between the two extreme positions, starting from the extended position via an intermediate position to the restricted position respectively. - Naturally, the covered and/or screened
space 13 in the building 7 is more limited in the restricted position than in the extended position, or vice versa, said covered and/or screenedspace 13 is larger in the extended position of theextension 1 than in the restricted position. - According to a preferred embodiment of an
extension 1 according to the invention, thefront wall 2 of theextension 1 is part of thefront 10 of the building 7 in the restricted position, whereas thefront wall 2 of theextension 1 is situated at a certain maximal distance D from thefront 10 of the building 7 in the extended position, preferably for example in the utmost position against the railing or the edge 17 of abalcony 9 of the building 7. - With such an embodiment, the
balcony 9 of the building 7 will be entirely open in the restricted position of theextension 1, whereas it will be entirely screened in the extended position of theextension 1. - Moreover, in the restricted position, the
front wall 2 of theextension 1 will be situated in the plane of thefront 10 of the building 7, such that the outlook of the building 7 is not harmed. - Other embodiments are not excluded, however, whereby the minimally restricted position is situated for example more inward in the building 7 and the maximally extended position does not reach up against the railing 17, for example.
- In the embodiment of
figure 1 as discussed above, theextension 1 is also provided with aroof wall 15, but this is not strictly necessary according to the invention. - Moreover, it is not excluded to provide a floor wall on the
extension 1 between theside walls front wall 2. - In this first embodiment of an
extension 1 according to the invention, the walls, in particular thefront wall 2, theside walls roof wall 15 of theextension 1 are rigidly connected to one another, whereby the entire rigid construction of theextension 1 can shift inside the building 7. - The
side walls extension 1 can hereby shift inside the building 7 over theside walls 16 of the building 7, whereby saidside walls 16 serve as a guide for theaforesaid side walls extension 1 is obtained having about the same width B as the building 7. - To this end, the
extension 1 can be provided for example with a mechanism with collapsible wheels under theside walls side walls 16 serves as the actual guide. - The
extension 1 may be designed such that its shifting in and out can be done entirely manually. - However, it is not excluded to provide electric motors to that end, for example, which may be either or not operated via a remote control.
- The example of
figure 3 is entirely analogous to the example offigure 2 , but in this case theground floor 8 is already provided with afixed extension 18, whereby theroof 19 of saidextension 18 serves as aterrace 20 for the apartment on thefirst floor 8. - In the example of
figure 3 , anextension 1 according to the invention is placed on thefirst floor 8. Saidextension 1 can in this case move between a restricted position whereby thefront wall 2 is situated in the plane or practically in the plane of thefront 10 of the building 7 and an extended position whereby theextension 1 has been provided up against the edge 17 of theterrace 20. - Apart from the fact that a
terrace 20 is usually larger than abalcony 9 and, consequently, also theextension 1 must be larger in a case as infigure 3 than in a case as infigure 2 , there is no further difference between the applications offigures 2 and3 . - According to an alternative embodiment of an
extension 1 according to the invention, it is for example possible to realise theextension 1 without aroof wall 15. - Naturally, there will be a problem with this embodiment in that, in the extended position of the
extension 1, thespace 13 in the building 7 will not be entirely screened as there is noroof wall 15. - This problem can be simply solved by making sure, for example, that the
side walls front wall 2 fit closely onto thebalcony 9 lying on top in the extended position of theextension 1, such that the roof of theextension 1 is formed of saidbalcony 9 lying on top of the latter. - In this manner, the same effect can be obtained with a simpler or cheaper construction, namely that the relation between the space of the building 7, which is screened from any weather conditions, and the open space can be freely adjusted, for example as a function of the weather.
-
Figure 7 shows yet another embodiment of anextension 1 according to the invention, whereby the walls of theextension 1 are hinge-mounted to one another by means ofhinges 21 this time. - In particular, the
front wall 2 of theextension 1 consists of four hingedpanels 22 in the given example, whereby saidfront wall 2 is hinge-mounted on its side edges 23 as well with each time one hingedside panel 22 forming one of theside walls extension 1. - The hinged panels are again provided with
windows 5 anddoors 6, whereby the most varying alternatives are possible. - The use of such an
extension 1 according to the embodiment offigure 7 is somewhat different from that of the preceding embodiments as theextension 1 must be put in the restricted position or in the extended position by making the walls orpanels 22 hinge in relation to one another. - This is illustrated by means of
figures 8 to 10 included. -
Figure 8 , for example, represents theextension 1 in its extended position, whereby thepanels 22 enclose the edge 17 of abalcony 9. - For a good sealing, it is best made sure that a connection is provided on the top side with a
balcony 9 lying on top. - In order to put the
extension 1 in its restricted position, theside wall 4 must in this case be disconnected from the building 7 first. - To this end, this
side wall 4 is provided with appropriate coupling means 25 on itsfree edge 24. - The
other side wall 3 is hinge-mounted in a fixed manner to the building. - Next, the
panels 22 are hinged towards one another, which is represented for a certain intermediate position infigure 9 , and thepanels 22 forming theside walls - Finally, the result of
figure 10 is obtained whereby theside walls side walls 16 in the building 7 and thefront wall 2 is moved inward over a certain distance in relation to the original extended position. -
Figures 11 and12 represent an alternative to the embodiment offigure 7 , whereby theextension 1 is this time only formed of afront wall 2 formed of apanel 22 which is connected to anotherpanel 22 by means ofhinges 21, which panel serves as aside wall 3 to theextension 1. - The
front wall 2 is hereby connected in a detachable manner to aside wall 16 of the building 7 by means of coupling means 25, whereas theside wall 3 is hinge-mounted in a fixed manner to thefront 10 of the building 7. - In the given example of
figures 11 and12 , a part 26 of thebalcony 9 is always open. -
Figure 11 represents the extended position of theextensions 1, whereasfigure 12 shows the restricted position. - Starting from the extended position of
figure 11 , an additionalopen part 27 may be created on thebalcony 9 by successively first detaching thefront wall 2 from theside walls 16, then swinging back theside panel 3 to the inside of the building 7 and finally fixing thefront wall 2 to theside walls 16 again, however somewhat more inward in relation to the original fastening points. - In the
side wall 3 is in this case provided adoor 6 which makes it possible, in the extended position as well as in the restricted position, to reach thebalcony 9 as of the building 7. - Naturally, innumerable variations on the embodiments with the hinged
panels 22 as shown here are possible. -
Figure 13 show a more detailed version of anextension 1 analogous to the embodiment offigure 1 , with a number of practical provisions which make the use of anextension 1 according to the invention even more interesting. - For example, it is easy to provide a
bench 28 on anextension 1 according to the invention which can move along with the extension between the extended position and the restricted position. - Moreover, it could be interesting for example if this
bench 28 could shift out through thefront wall 2, such that thebench 28 can be easily shifted onto theopen balcony 9 in the restricted position of theextension 1. - Another interesting provision might consist for example of a little sliding table 29 provided in a sliding manner under a
bench 30 of theextension 1. - An alternative to such a sliding table 29 is for example a collapsible table 31 which is hinge-mounted to the
front wall 2 between a folded-out horizontal position and a folded-in position parallel to the plane of thefront wall 2. - An advantage of such a
bench 28 or such tables 29 and 30 is that they can be easily installed and stored again, whereby optimal use is made of the available space. - Another additional provision, also represented in
figure 13 , might for example be anawning 32 provided on the top side of thefront wall 2 of theextension 1. - Such an
awning 32 could for example serve as a sunblind when theextension 1 is put in its restricted position. - Naturally, many other possibilities are conceivable as well.
- The invention is by no means restricted to the embodiments of an
extension 1 for a building 7 according to the invention described by way of example and represented in the accompanying drawings; on the contrary, such anextension 1 can be made in many other ways while still remaining within the scope of the invention.
