Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sill, such as, for example, for an outside door or an outside window, provided with a drain.
  • NL 2002323 shows a sill provided with a drainage duct having an inlet passage situated in the upper surface of the duct.
  • a problem which may occur with known sills is that the height of known sills requires additional structural measures, such as, for example, lowering the floor on which the sill is fitted in order to comply with various regulations. Thus, for example, it is a requirement of the Buildings Decree that the sill should protrude a maximum of 20 mm above street level. In order to meet this requirement using a known sill with a height greater than 20 mm, it may therefore be necessary to partly recess the sill into the floor, and to lower a part of the floor for this purpose, for example. Although this may be provided for straightaway in the construction of new buildings, the exact dimensions of the sill to be used will, however, have to be taken into account at an early stage. However, in case of renovation, some structural alterations will have to be carried out in order to lower the section of the wall. It is therefore desirable to provide a sill having a lower height than the known sills.
  • sills are secured from the floor side. Once the sill has been placed and secured, the securing means can no longer be reached from the outside. When a known sill has to be removed, for example when it has to be replaced, this can only be done after the necessary demolition work has been carried out. It may therefore also be desirable to make it possible to secure the sill in a simple manner which, for example, still allows the simple removal of the sill.
  • NL 1027966 shows a sill in which the water is drained off via a drainage duct along the sloping upper side of the sill.
  • the sloping part is the walking surface of a door sill, this may result, for example, in the walking surface becoming slippery.
  • the invention provides a sill provided with a drainage duct with a front longitudinal wall, a rear longitudinal wall, an upper wall and a lower wall, as well as a collection channel which, on a side of the rear longitudinal wall which faces away from the drainage duct, extends parallel to the drainage duct and is delimited by the rear longitudinal wall and by a bottom channel wall, wherein at least one respective passage opening is provided in each of the front and rear longitudinal walls of the drainage duct, as a result of which the collection channel is in liquid communication, via the drainage duct, with a drainage zone situated outside the drainage duct.
  • the sill In use, it is therefore possible to collect water from outside in the collection channel, from where the water is discharged to the drainage duct and from there to the drainage zone situated outside the drainage duct.
  • the drainage zone is, for example, the environment outside the wall in which the sill is situated.
  • the collection channel is situated next to the drainage duct.
  • a sill having a relatively low height, for example compared to the sill known from NL 2002323 , in which the inlet passage mentioned therein is situated on top of the drainage duct.
  • the bottom channel wall and the bottom wall are substantially in line with one another, thus making it possible to minimize the height of the sill.
  • the bottom channel wall is provided with a fastening element which is situated at a distance from the side of the rear longitudinal wall which faces away from the drainage duct, and which fastening element serves for fastening a stop element, preferably made of resilient material.
  • the sill can thus be provided with a stop element, which, for example, adjoins the closed door or window during use and thus provides a seal against water and/or draught.
  • the stop element may define a boundary of the collection channel.
  • the fastening element comprises a T-shaped recess for accommodating a complementary engagement means of the stop element.
  • the T-shaped recess can be used to mount a fitting without having to screw or drill holes in the sill in order to be able to mount the fitting.
  • the T-shaped recess extends parallel to the drainage duct and thus forms a receiving groove. This further simplifies the fastening of a stop element or a fitting.
  • the receiving groove is, for example, shaped so as to conform to the Euronut standard for fittings.
  • the collection channel is furthermore delimited by an elevation situated at a distance from the rear longitudinal wall.
  • the outwardly facing side of the collection channel is then delimited by the rear longitudinal wall of the drainage duct and delimited on the inwardly facing side by the elevation. This may contribute to preventing the ingress of water from the collection channel.
  • the sill on the side of the bottom wall, is provided with a support part for resting on a securing surface, wherein the upper wall extends beyond the front longitudinal wall up to a front covering wall which extends from the upper wall in the direction of the securing surface.
  • the front covering wall thus ensures that the front longitudinal wall is at least partially visually screened off, as a result of which the passage apertures in the front longitudinal wall can be hidden from view. In use, it is thus possible for an opening to form between the lower side of the front covering wall and the securing surface, as a result of which the water can be carried away further, away from the drainage duct.
  • the drainage zone comprises a discharge space which is situated between the upper wall, the front covering wall and the front longitudinal wall.
  • the passage opening from which the drainage duct thus drains off to the discharge space and from there to the environment.
  • the discharge space is largely hidden from view by the front covering wall.
  • the upper wall comprises a sloping part which slopes down to the front longitudinal wall. Water which lands on the upper side of the upper wall from above can thus be drained off via the upper wall. In addition, water which builds up between the outside and the inside can be collected in the collection channel via the upper side of the upper wall, via the at least partly sloping part.
  • the upper wall comprises a horizontal part which, during use, lies substantially flat.
  • a sealing strip or sealing brush on the lower side of the door or the window, it is thus possible to obtain an additional between the sealing strip or sealing brush and the horizontal part, as a result of which the ingress of water from outside is prevented.
  • the dimensions of the horizontal part may be adapted to the thickness of the wall.
  • a screw passage is provided in the bottom channel wall of the collection channel which extends through the bottom channel wall.
  • the screw passage makes it possible to attach the sill to the floor to which it is being fitted, for example by means of screws, from the collection channel. If the sill has to be removed, for example if it is to be replaced, the sill can then be detached again by unscrewing the screws via the collection channel. This makes it possible to achieve removal without having to cause any structural damage. Moreover, the screws can then be invisible from outside during normal use, with the door or window closed.
  • the sill is furthermore provided with screw openings at the head ends of the sill.
  • the screw openings may extend in the longitudinal direction of the sill. The screw openings make it possible to screw additional parts onto the head ends of the sill.
  • the sill is formed integrally. As a result thereof, a strong sill is obtained.
  • the sill is, for example, made by injection-moulding, pultrusion or extrusion.
  • the sill is made of a metal, such as aluminium or an aluminium alloy, or a plastic, such as a glass-fibre reinforced plastic.
  • a metal such as aluminium or an aluminium alloy
  • a plastic such as a glass-fibre reinforced plastic.
  • Such materials can be readily processed to form a sill, for example by metal extrusion of, for example, an aluminium alloy, or pultrusion of a glass-fibre reinforced plastic. It is also relatively easily possible to drill holes into such materials, for example, in order to produce the passage apertures in the sill.
  • Such materials can be readily sawn, usually even with a hand saw, and it is relatively easy to screw screws into them.
  • the sill may, for example, be produced by means of metal extrusion of an element of a certain length, which is sawn to the required length for the respective door or window opening during fitting.
  • the invention furthermore provides an assembly of a sill according to the invention and a stop element.
  • the stop element may, in particular, be configured in order to adjoin, during use, the closed door or window, thus forming a seal against water and/or draught and preventing both from entering the building.
  • the stop element is provided with a complementary engagement means.
  • the engagement means in the receiving groove and the complementary engagement means of the stop element thus establish the connection, such as a snap-fit connection or a clamping connection.
  • this connection makes it possible to remove the stop element from the sill again, so that the stop element can, for example, be replaced or can, for example, be removed temporarily during dismantling of the sill.
  • the stop element may be configured in order to adjoin, in use, the closed door or window, thus forming a seal against water and/or draught and preventing both from entering the building.
  • the stop element forms a further boundary of the collection channel, thus making it possible to prevent water from the collection channel from reaching the interior.
  • the stop element is adapted to cover the screw passage during use. This makes it possible to prevent the ingress of water into the building, for example into the floor, via the screw passage.
  • the assembly is connected to a floor of a building by means of screws which have been fitted into the screw passage via the collection channel, the screws are, in addition, not in contact with any water which may be present in the collection channel.
  • the stop element is made substantially from a rubber material, preferably from an EPDM material. This results in a strong, yet slightly elastic stop element, thus producing a good seal.
  • the invention furthermore provides a further assembly of a structural element, such as a floor or a wall, provided with a pivotable or displaceable passage element, such as a door or a window, as well as an assembly which is provided on the structural element according to the invention of a sill and a stop element.
  • a structural element such as a floor or a wall
  • a pivotable or displaceable passage element such as a door or a window
  • an assembly which is provided on the structural element according to the invention of a sill and a stop element can thus provide a good seal for the passage element as well as good drainage, with no water entering or moving past the structural element.
  • the sill with the passage element closed, extends under the passage element, the lower side of the passage element being provided with a first sealing strip which, with the passage element closed, forms a seal with the stop element of the assembly. This contributes further to preventing the ingress of water and/or dirt.
  • the lower side of the passage element is furthermore provided with a second sealing strip or sealing brush which, with the passage element closed, forms a seal with the upper wall.
  • a second sealing strip or sealing brush which, with the passage element closed, forms a seal with the upper wall.
  • a further embodiment provides a further assembly according to the invention, in which: the sill, with the passage element closed, extends under the passage element, and the passage element is provided on the inside with a lip which, with the passage element closed, forms a seal with the longitudinal side of the stop element of the assembly facing the lip.
  • the sill with the passage element closed, extends under the passage element
  • the passage element is provided on the inside with a lip which, with the passage element closed, forms a seal with the longitudinal side of the stop element of the assembly facing the lip.
  • the assembly comprises a sill which is provided with a support part on the side of the bottom wall for resting on a securing surface, with the upper wall extending beyond the front longitudinal wall up to a front covering wall which extends from the upper wall in the direction of the securing surface, the upper wall extends outside the structural element and the front covering wall is at a distance from the structural element.
  • the water can thus drain away, out of the collection channel, via the drainage duct and the discharge space to somewhere outside the structural element, such as to the environment.
