Es konnte festgestellt werden, dass eine Endkappe zum Verschließen einer Hohlkammer einer Profilleiste eines Fensters, einer Tür und dergleichen, mit in die Hohlkammer eingreifenden Halteelementen, mit einem an die Profilleiste wenigstens teilweise axial anschließendem Außenumfang vorteilhafterweise wenigstens ein Funktionselement aufweist, welches wenigstens teilweise aus einem weichelastischen Werkstoff besteht. Dieses Funktionselement ist so ausgebildet, dass der zwischen der Profilleiste beispielsweise einem Stulpprofil zum Blendrahmen bzw. zum Flügelrahmen bestehende Spalt abgedichtet ist und gleichzeitig mögliche fertigungsbedingte Toleranzen ausgeglichen werden können.It has been found that an end cap for closing a hollow chamber of a profiled strip of a window, a door and the like, with retaining elements engaging in the hollow chamber, with an outer periphery at least partially axially adjacent to the profiled strip, advantageously has at least one functional element which at least partially consists of one soft elastic material. This functional element is designed such that the gap existing between the profile strip, for example a cuff profile to the window frame or the casement, is sealed and at the same time possible production-related tolerances can be compensated.
Dabei ist der weichelastische Werkstoff des Funktionselementes ausgewählt aus der Gruppe der Thermoplaste, der Duromere, der Silikone, der Elastomere, Gummi und dergleichen, was eine kostengünstige Herstellung der Endkappe ermöglicht.Here, the soft elastic material of the functional element is selected from the group of thermoplastics, thermosets, silicones, elastomers, rubber and the like, which allows a cost-effective production of the end cap.

Dabei ist das Funktionselement beispielsweise stoffschlüssig mit der Endkappe verbunden, was die Herstellungskosten reduziert und die Geometrievielfalt dieser Endkappen gleichzeitig erhöht.In this case, the functional element is, for example, materially connected to the end cap, which reduces the manufacturing costs and simultaneously increases the geometric diversity of these end caps.
Es liegt jedoch auch im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass das Funktionselement kraftschlüssig mit der Endkappe verbunden ist, sodass verschiedene Farbvarianten beispielsweise der Endkappe bzw. des Funktionselementes miteinander kombinierbar sind. Weiterhin ist es durch diese vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung möglich, bereits montierte Endkappen in Fenstern bzw. Türen durch die erfindungsgemäße Endkappe zu ersetzen bzw. durch das Funktionselement zu sanieren.However, it is also within the scope of the invention that the functional element is non-positively connected to the end cap, so that different color variants, for example, the end cap and the functional element can be combined. Furthermore, it is possible by this advantageous embodiment to replace already mounted end caps in windows or doors by the end cap according to the invention or to redevelop by the functional element.
Ein weiterer Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Endkappe wird darin gesehen, dass das Funktionselement wenigstens teilweise aus einem weichelastischen Werkstoff besteht. Dabei sind vor allem solche Werkstoffe vorteilhaft einsetzbar, die eine Härte von maximal Shore A 96 aufweisen.Another advantage of the end cap according to the invention is seen in that the functional element at least partially consists of a soft elastic material.

Durch diese vorteilhafte Geometrie ist das Toleranzausgleichselement in der Lage, im eingebauten Zustand auftretende Druckkräfte im Fenstersystem, beispielsweise durch öffnen bzw. Schließen eines Flügelrahmens trotz bestehender Fertigungstoleranzen, aufzunehmen und so das Fenstersystem abzudichten. Dabei kann das Toleranzausgleichselement der erfindungsgemäßen Endkappe über seine Längsachse aufgrund der weichelastischen Werkstoffe flexibel die Toleranzunterschiede der Profilleisten eines Fenstersystems ausgleichen.In a further advantageous embodiment, the tolerance compensation element is flexible relative to its longitudinal axis. By this advantageous geometry, the tolerance compensation element is able to absorb pressure forces occurring in the installed state in the window system, for example, by opening or closing a casement despite existing manufacturing tolerances, and thus seal the window system.
