Definitions

  • the exemplary and non-limiting embodiments of this invention relate generally to skylights and more particularly to a motorised skylight which opens by parallel vertical displacement.
  • Skylights are used for transmission of outdoor natural lighting through roofs to building interiors.
  • There exist two types of skylights one type for sloping roofs and other type skylights for flat/horizontal roofs.
  • the horizontal skylight may open by a hinge and rotation, by linear guide which enable sideway sliding or by vertical parallel displacement where the skylight is vertically raised.
  • EP0979333B1 shows a motorised skylight which opens vertically by parallel displacement.
  • DK174562 shows a vertical window which opens by sideways displacement, however vertical windows are not suitable for roof use.
  • JP60-29835 shows a skylight with 4 scissor mechanisms i.e. one on each side of the skylight.
  • Such skylights conventionally open little (small opening height) which is not suitable for smoke ventilation.
  • skylights are used for smoke ventilation. Such skylights must be able to open even when covered by snow and this requires the opening mechanism to handle about 3 times more weight than the sole skylight weight.
  • spindle or cylinder operators are usually used, but these operators often also extend below the frame of skylight i.e. the spindle or cylinder operator extends into the free air. Consequently spindle and cylinder operators do not have a nice appearance and the assembly and transport is not optimal.
  • a spindle or cylinder operator may use a link mechanism, but transmitting force trough link mechanisms requires a mechanism with large dimensions, more parts and consequently costs, maintenance and appearance is affected.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates an example of a motorised skylight with a parallel vertical displacement opening mechanism.
  • the skylight opens by vertically raising the sash 2 and pane 3.
  • vertical and/or parallel displacement is understood, that the sash is raised vertically while the frame 1 and sash 2 remain substantially parallel. So the sash moves in one dimension only.
  • the opening of the skylight is understood as raising the sash or moving the sash.
  • the skylight has a frame 1 configured for horizontal mounting on a roof.
  • the frame 1 may be placed on a curb (not shown).
  • Both the frame 1 and sash 2 each consist of 4 respective sides.
  • the opening of the skylight is provided by two means: a guide mechanism means which guide the raising and keep the frame and sash substantially parallel and operator drive means which carry the load (sash 2) when it is raised.
  • the guide mechanism means may be provided by scissors mechanisms 4.
  • the guide mechanism means may be provided as a linear guide mechanism.
  • the guide mechanism means 4 may also be provided by a telescopic guide for example located in each corner of the skylight.
  • the operator drive means may be a rigid chain operator 5a,12. Both single and/or double chain operators (where 2 chains mesh to create stiff column) may be employed.
  • the 4 guide mechanisms each comprise a first profile attached to the sash and a second profile attached to the frame wherein the first and second profile is connected by a collapsible mechanism 4.
  • Fig 2 illustrates a scissors mechanism linkage 4.
  • the scissor mechanism 4 comprises a first rail 6 and a second rail 7.
  • the rails 6,7 are connected by crossing scissor links 8,9.
  • the rails may be C shaped to guide a sled 10 which supports one end of the links.
  • the mechanism has one first end 11 where the links 8,9 are fixed and a second end where the links may travel.
  • the first rail 6 is secured to the sash 2 and the second rail 7 is secured to the frame 1.
  • Fig 3 illustates a rigid chain operator 12 with a collapsed chain 5.
  • the chain is driven by a sprocket and after the exit the chain is rigid 5a.
  • the chain operator 12 has a self locking gear, for example by using a worm gear or a gear lock.
  • the rigid chain 5a is secured to the sash 2.
  • the sash may be raised without applying any load forces to the guide or scissor mechanisms 4.
  • Fig 4 illustrate the scissor mechanism 4 and operator drive 5 viewed from above.
  • the guide mechanism is configured to control and guide the substantially vertical displacement of the sash.
  • the sash/frame each have 4 sides 4a-4d. On each respective side 4a-4d there is provided a scissor mechanism.
  • the scissor mechanisms 4 and operator 5 are also shown on fig. 5 and fig. 6 (note the chains are not extended on fig. 5 and 6 ).
  • the rigid chain operator 5a,12 raises and carries the load of the sash 2 e.g. the skylight.
  • at least two rigid chain operators 12 are used and the operators 12 are provided substantially symmetrically about the centre and the rigid chain operators 5a,12 are configured to carry the load of the skylight e.g. sash 2.
  • the rigid chain operators 5a,12 substantially carry the load of the sash in the open position.
  • the skylight has open position, closed position and position in between.
  • the rigid chain operators 5a,12 are configured to move the sash 2 and carry the load of the sash in at least one position.
  • the rigid chain operators 5a,12 support load of the sash 2 in at least one position.
  • the extended rigid chains may bend in one direction and in one example the operators are arranged so the direction in which the chains bend point mutually towards eachother or away from eachother.
  • the sum of the chains creates a structure which better resist bending.
  • the operator 12 motors comprise feedback to a controller, which controls the motors synchronously in order to raise the load parallel.
  • the at least two rigid chain operator motors have feedback and are driven synchronous.
  • the 4 scissor mechanisms 4a-4d each individually restrict movement in the longitudinal direction (e.g. along the rails 6,7).
  • the scissors are not individually configured to cope with torsion and transversal forces in the plane of the frame/sash.
  • Each scissor shaped mechanism substantially confines the movement in one dimension only.
  • By providing 4 scissor mechanisms, one on each respective side a configuration is provided which is suitable to cope with torsion and transversal forces.
  • the dimensions of the 4 scissor mechanisms may be very small. For example it has proven that 4 scissors, where each scissor link 8,9 is less than a cm thick may support a skylight weighting more than 200kg.
  • the thickness is defined as the cross section seen from above fig 4 ).
  • fig. 6 illustrates that by using slim scissor mechanisms 4, one on each respective side, the mechanisms occupy little space and provide a firm guide and/or support. Both the height and the thickness of the scissor mechanisms 4 may be compact.
  • the 4 scissor mechanisms are identical.
  • the 4 scissor mechanisms 4 are provided substantially on the centre of each of the 4 respective sides.
  • the 4 scissor mechanisms 4 are provided substantially symmetrically about the centre of gravity. By these examples the load is evenly distributed and the raising motion is smooth etc.
  • this configuration provides an enhanced skylight support which is compact and may be integrated in the sash/frame.
  • This configuration also provides an opening which is independent of the wind direction.
  • the configuration of 4 scissor mechanisms also provides a large aperture because the sash may be lifted highly.
  • the skylight sash may be lifted more than 0,3 x W, where W is the width of the skylight sash (for example as seen on fig. 6 ).
  • W is the width of the skylight sash (for example as seen on fig. 6 ).
  • the skylight sash is lifted between 0,4 to 0,8 x W.
  • each scissor mechanism 4 longitudinal length in the collapsed position is more than 50% of the skylight sash width.
  • the scissor mechanism longitudinal length is more than more than 60% of the skylight sash width.
  • Fig. 7 and 8 show a cross section of the skylight in closed and open positions.
  • the sash 2 substantially covers the frame 1 located beneath the sash 2.
  • the operators 12 are integrated in the frame 1.
  • the two operators 12 are provided substantially symmetrically about the centre to substantially support the centre of gravity.
  • the two operators 12 are offset from the centre to provide room for the winding chain 5.
  • the chain 5 is wound up inside the frame 1 profile.
  • the four guide scissor mechanisms provide low dimensions, which enable the scissor mechanism 4 in the collapsed position to fit inside the frame 1.
  • the scissor mechanism 4 take up less than 50% of the frame cross section width.
  • the scissor mechanism 4 cross section width is less than 4 cm.
  • the scissor mechanism may be used in a frame from a regular skylight and this enables the re-use of components and also provides a consistent look.
