Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a roof window comprising a window frame of a substantially rectangular outline having four longitudinal frame members, wherein at least one frame member is provided with at least one longitudinal mounting groove extending along the external surface of this member in the neighbourhood of its end, a window sash mounted in the frame, and at least one corner bracket for mounting said window frame to a roof construction.
  • Rigid Tie Angle (RTA) bracket for rectangular frame constructions that works as a gusset wrapping around two adjacent perpendicular members of the frame construction.
  • RTA Rigid Tie Angle
  • This bracket comprises a first leg portion for connection with an associated window frame member and a second leg portion which is essentially perpendicular to the first leg portion and is to be fastened to the roof structure, wherein said first leg portion is formed as two leg sections essentially perpendicular to each other for connection with adjacent frame members at the joint hereof.
  • Polish utility model PL 65 207 Y1 (app. no. 117857) discloses a corner bracket having two arms to be fastened to a roof structure, wherein each arm is provided with overpressed projections to be fixed to a mounting groove in a window frame member and perpendicular member to be fastened to an external surface of the window frame member.
  • EP 2 055 859 A1 discloses a roof window with mounting brackets arranged on the edges of the window frame. Although the brackets described above improve positioning of the window within the roof construction, there is still a need of providing a roof window having a bracket of a simpler construction, more economical and easier to manufacture which would also require less material to be produced and these issues have been an object of the present invention.
  • Another object of the present invention has been to provide a roof window having brackets that would enable for mounting at least two windows in an adjacent manner with their side frame members adjacent to each other and/or would enable for mounting roof windows in narrow clearances provided with insufficient space to employ known mounting brackets.
  • a roof window as defined in claim 1.
  • a product of uniform and compact structure is obtained, which in turn increases the strength of the bracket and enables manufacturing of the bracket from a raw material with low specific rigidity, e.g. aluminium, with no need of forming drawing beads.
  • the thickness of said corner bracket corresponds substantially to the height of said frame member mounting groove and/or the width of said projection is equal or smaller than the depth of the mounting groove.
  • At least one substantially rectangular projection is coplanar to said second member.
  • substantially rectangular projection may also be connected with the second member.
  • corner bracket comprises more than one rectangular projection, wherein the distances between the projections correspond to the distances between the mounting grooves of the window frame.
  • the second bracket member is provided with at least one flap to stabilise the position of the window frame.
  • Fig. 1 shows a fragment of a typical roof construction 2 on which roof windows are being mounted adjacently to each other.
  • the roof construction 2 comprises of a set of oblique rafters 21 parallel to each other and a set of horizontal battens 22, 23 parallel to each other and perpendicular to the rafters 21. Rafters 21 are fixedly connected with battens in a typical manner e.g. by means of nails or woodscrews.
  • Each window frame 1 is of a rectangular outline and comprises two side members 11, 12 extending parallel to the rafters 21 and two horizontal members 13, 14 extending parallel to the battens 22, 23.
  • Each window frame member 11-14 is provided with two mounting grooves 15, each extending circumferentially along the external surface of the window frame 1. Two sets of the mounting grooves 15 enable to differentiate the position of the frame within the roof construction along the normal axis perpendicular to the plane defined by the frame members.
  • Each window frame 1 is mounted by means of four corner mounting brackets 3 fixed to the battens 23.
  • each roof window comprises two "left" brackets (bottom left and top right corners of the frame 1 shown in Fig. 1 ) and two symmetrical “right” brackets (bottom right and top left corners of the frame 1 shown in Fig. 1 ).
  • the brackets 3 enable to mount roof window frames 1 in an adjacent manner with their side members 11, 12 almost in contact with each other thus enabling for forming continuous panels of adjacent roof windows.
  • the bracket 3 is a single-element metal shape of substantially the same thickness and comprises a flat first member 31 connected to the external surface of the window frame 1 side member 11 and a flat second member 32, perpendicular to said first member 31, and connected to the battens 23 of the roof construction 2.
  • Bracket members 31, 32 are fastened respectively to the roof construction 2 and to the frame member 11 by means of screws 16 passing through openings 311, 321.
  • the second bracket member 32 is also provided with two punched rectangular flaps 322.
  • the flaps 322 define the clearance between the frame members 14 and the battens 23 and stabilise the position of the window frame 1 prior screwing the brackets to the battens 23.
  • Fig. 4 shows details of the "right" bracket of Figs. 1-3 .
  • the first member 31 comprises a main part 313 and a linking part 312.
  • the main part 313 is of a substantially rectangular shape with rounded corners while the linking part 312 comprises rectangular section 3121 having constant height and a section 3122 with a height increasing arcuately toward the main part 313 starting from a height of the section 3121 to a height of the main part 313.
  • the second bracket member 32 extends perpendicularly from the linking part 312 of the first bracket member 31 over the whole length of this edge.
  • the second bracket member 32 is also of a rectangular shape with rounded corners.
  • the main part 313 is provided with a longitudinal, rectangular projection 3131 formed in a central section of the bottom edge of the main part 313 and bent off perpendicularly relative to the surface of the main part 313 in the direction of and coplanarly relative to the second member 32.
  • the width (w) of the projection 3131 is slightly smaller than the depth (d) of the mounting groove 15 (cf. Fig. 3 ).
  • Fig. 5 depicts an embodiment of the corner mounting bracket 3a according to the present invention, which comprises an additional projection 3132a located below the bottom surface of the second member 32, however, similarly as in embodiment of Fig. 4 , this projection is bent off perpendicularly relative to the surface of the first member main part 313a and in the direction of the second member 32.
  • the second projection 3131a is formed here as a longitudinal rectangular flap punched in the central section of the surface of the main part 313a of the first member 31a and perpendicularly bent off from the surface in the direction of and coplanarly relative to the bracket second member 32. As shown the bottommost edge of the main part 313a of the first member 31 is located below the bottom surface of the additional projection 3132a.
  • the distance (d) between projection 3131a and 3132a corresponds to the distance (s) between adjacent mounting grooves 15 of each window frame member 11-14.
  • the linking part 312 a of the first member 31a extends over the whole length of an edge of the second member 32 and comprises two sections 3121a, 3123a having constant but different heights, wherein the upper edge of the section 3123a is collinear with the upper edge of the main part 313a, and an inner section 3122a arcuately linking sections 3121a and 3123a.
  • FIG. 6 Another embodiment of the bracket according to the present invention, shown in Fig. 6 comprises the linking part 312b that extends on about 70% of a length of an edge of the second member 32b and comprises a section 3121b of a constant height and a section 3122b with a height increasing linearly toward a main part 313b of the first member 31b.
  • the main part 313b is provided with only one projection 3131b formed as a longitudinal rectangular flap punched in the surface of the main part 313b of the first member 31b and perpendicularly bent off from the surface in the direction of and coplanarly relative to the bracket second member 32b.
  • the second member 32b has only one centrally positioned punched flap 322b.
  • Production of the corner mounting brackets according to the present invention may in a simple implementation comprise only two stages: in the first stage a prefabricated sheet defining outlines of the first and second bracket members is cut out from a metal sheet, and in the second stage such a prefabricated sheet is folded along a line separating first and second members to provide its perpendicular relationship relative to the second member. Obviously the line of fold may be additionally grooved in the first stage of the production process.
  • Fig. 7 shows an embodiment of the bracket 3c having the shape that has been optimised with respect to byproduct minimization during the above described manufacturing process.
  • the optimisation has been obtained by appropriate construction of the main part 313c of the first member 31c.
  • a projection 3131c protrudes perpendicularly relative to the first member 31c and coplanarly relative to the second member 32c over the whole length of the bottom edge of the main part 313c.
  • the projection 3131c has perpendicular shape and joins with the second member 32c.
  • part of the shape of the bottom edge of the main part 313c combined with the shape of the end part of the projection 3131c substantially matches the shape of the upper edge of the linking part 312c.
