Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verbindungssteg für ein Verbundprofil nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Die Erfindung betrifft außerdem ein Verbundprofil mit mindestens einem derartigen Verbindungssteg und ein Verfahren zu seiner Herstellung.The invention relates to a connecting web for a composite profile according to the preamble of claim 1. The invention also relates to a composite profile with at least one such connecting web and a method for its production.

Verbindungsstege der eingangs genannten Art werden zur Verbindung von z.B. aus Aluminium bestehenden äußeren und inneren Profilen eines Verbundprofils eingesetzt, das z.B. für die Herstellung von Fenstern, Türen oder Fassaden verwendet wird. Um bei derartigen Verbundprofilen eine gute Wärmedämmung zu erreichen, werden vielfach zwischen die zur Isolation aus Kunststoff bestehenden Verbindungsstege zusätzliche Dämmelemente aus Schaumstoff oder anderen geeigneten Dämmstoffen eingesetzt. Da jedoch die Montage solcher Dämmelemente relativ aufwändig ist, wurden bereits Verbindungsstege vorgeschlagen, auf denen das Dämmmaterial angebracht ist.Connecting webs of the type mentioned are used for the connection of e.g. aluminum outer and inner profiles of a composite profile used e.g. used for the production of windows, doors or facades. In order to achieve good thermal insulation in such composite profiles, additional insulating elements made of foam or other suitable insulating materials are often used between the insulation of plastic connecting webs. However, since the installation of such insulation elements is relatively expensive, have already been proposed connecting webs on which the insulating material is mounted.

Aus der EP 1 347 141 A1 ist ein Isolier- und Verbindungssteg bekannt, der aus einem Kunststoffprofil und einer damit verbundenen Dämmleiste besteht. Dieser Isolier- und Verbindungssteg wird dadurch hergestellt, dass zunächst das Kunststoffprofil als im Querschnitt wannenförmiges Kunststoffprofil extrudiert wird und danach in den wannenförmigen Bereich ein Isolierschaum im flüssigen Bereich eingebracht und anschließend unter gleichzeitiger Verbindung mit dem Kunststoffprofil zu einer über den wannenförmigen Bereich hinaus vorstehenden Dämmleiste aufgeschäumt wird. Die aus Polyurethan-Schaum bestehende Dämmleiste ist allerdings relativ empfindlich, so dass die Montage der Isolier- und Verbindungsstege entsprechend sorgfältig erfolgen muss. Außerdem steht die aufgeschäumte Dämmleiste relativ weit gegenüber dem Kunststoffprofil vor, was einen entsprechenden Aufwand bei der Lagerung und dem Transport solcher Isolier- und Verbindungsstege bedeutet.From the EP 1 347 141 A1 is an insulating and connecting web is known, which consists of a plastic profile and an associated insulating strip. This insulating and connecting web is produced by first extruding the plastic profile as a cross-section trough-shaped plastic profile and then introduced into the trough-shaped region an insulating foam in the liquid region and then foamed with simultaneous connection to the plastic profile to an over the trough-shaped area beyond the insulating strip becomes. However, the insulating strip made of polyurethane foam is relatively sensitive, so that the installation of the insulating and connecting webs must be done accordingly carefully. In addition, the foamed Dämmleiste is relatively far in front of the plastic profile, which means a corresponding effort in the storage and transport of such insulating and connecting webs.

Aus der DE19504601 ist ein Isolier- und Verbindungssteg bekannt, wobei Dämmaterial in komprimiertem und/oder nicht expandiertem Zustand von einer Umhüllung eingeschlossen ist.From the DE19504601 is known an insulating and connecting web, wherein insulating material is enclosed in a compressed and / or unexpanded state of a sheath.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Verbindungssteg für ein Verbundprofil, ein Verbundprofil mit mindestens einem solchen Verbindungssteg und ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Verbundprofils zu schaffen, die bei einfacher Herstellung und Handhabung eine optimierte Wärmedämmung ermöglichen.The object of the invention is to provide a connecting web for a composite profile, a composite profile with at least one such connecting web and a method for producing a composite profile, which allow for simple production and handling an optimized thermal insulation.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Verbindungssteg mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1, durch ein Verbundprofil mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 8 und durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 9 gelöst. Zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen und vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This object is achieved by a connecting web having the features of claim 1, by a composite profile having the features of claim 8 and by a method having the features of claim 9. Advantageous developments and advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungssteg besteht das Dämmelement aus einem festen Schaumstoff-Formkörper aus Formgedächtnisschaum, der einen gegenüber seiner Ursprungsform komprimierten und bei Raumtemperatur in diesem komprimierten Zustand verbleibenden Zustand einnimmt und erst durch Erwärmung über eine vorbestimmte Temperatur wieder in seine Ursprungsform zurückkehrt. Der Schaumstoff-Formkörper ist in dem komprimierten Zustand vergleichsweise unempfindlich und nimmt relativ wenig Platz ein, so dass die Verbindungsstege einfach und problemlos montiert werden können. Der Schaumstoff-Formkörper kann z.B. in der komprimierten Form schnell und einfach an dem in der Regel aus Kunststoff bestehenden Profilkörper festgeklebt werden und benötigt wenig Raum, so dass die Verbindungsstege auch einfacher gelagert und transportiert werden können. In der komprimierten Form ist der Schaumstoff-Formkörper auch vergleichsweise stabil und kann daher nicht so einfach beschädigt werden. Erst wenn der Verbindungssteg an den Außen- und Innenprofilen befestigt ist und das so hergestellte Verbundprofil einer Wärmebehandlung unterzogen wird, dehnt sich der Schaumstoff-Formkörper aus und nimmt seine Ursprungsform ein. Dabei füllt er einen Hohlraum im Inneren des Verbundprofils vollständig aus, wodurch sich die Wärmedämmeigenschaften erheblich verbessern. Der Schaumstoff-Formkörper kann aus einem einzigen Teil bestehen und kann einfach hergestellt sein.In the connecting web according to the invention, the insulating element consists of a solid foam molded body made of shape memory foam, which occupies a compressed relative to its original shape and remaining at room temperature in this compressed state and only returns to its original form by heating over a predetermined temperature. The foam molding is comparatively insensitive in the compressed state and occupies relatively little space, so that the connecting webs can be easily and easily mounted. The foam molding may e.g. be glued quickly and easily to the generally made of plastic profile body in the compressed form and requires little space, so that the connecting webs can also be stored and transported easier. In the compressed form of the foam molding is also relatively stable and therefore can not be easily damaged. Only when the connecting web is attached to the outer and inner profiles and the composite profile produced in this way is subjected to a heat treatment, the foam molding expands and takes its original form. He fills a cavity in the interior of the composite profile completely, which significantly improves the thermal insulation properties. The foam molding may consist of a single part and may be easily manufactured.

In besonders zweckmäßiger Weise ist der Schaumstoff-Formkörper in Form eines an dem Profilkörper befestigbaren Streifens ausgebildet, der z.B. am dem Profilkörper festgeklebt werden kann. Der Schaumstoff-Formkörper ist so ausgebildet, dass er im komprimierten Zustand aufgewickelt werden kann. Dadurch kann er auf großen Spulen bereitgestellt und bei der Herstellung der Verbindungsstege einfach zugeführt werden.In a particularly expedient manner, the foam molding is designed in the form of a strip which can be fastened to the profile body, which strip is e.g. can be glued to the profile body. The foam molding is designed so that it can be wound up in the compressed state. As a result, it can be provided on large coils and easily fed in the production of the connecting webs.

Der Schaumstoff-Formkörper besteht z.B. aus einem Polyurethanschaum, der bis zu 1/20 seiner Ursprungsform komprimierbar ist und bei einer Erwärmung über 50° wieder seine Ursprungsform einnimmt.The foam molding consists for example of a polyurethane foam, which is compressible up to 1/20 of its original form and resumes its original form when heated above 50 °.

Ein erfindungsgemäßes Verbundprofil besteht aus einem Außenprofil und einem Innenprofil, die über Verbindungsstege miteinander verbunden sind, wobei das Dämmelement bei mindestens einem der Verbindungsstege aus einem gegenüber seiner Ursprungsform komprimierten und bei Raumtemperatur in diesem komprimierten Zustand verbleibenden festen Schaumstoff-Formkörper besteht, der erst durch Erwärmung über eine vorbestimmte Temperatur wieder in seine Ursprungsform zurückkehrt.An inventive composite profile consists of an outer profile and an inner profile, which are interconnected via connecting webs, wherein the insulating element in at least one of the connecting webs from a compressed compared to its original form and remaining at room temperature in this compressed state solid foam molded body, the first by heating returns to its original form over a predetermined temperature.

Ein erfindungsgemäßes Verfahren zur Herstellung eines solchen Verbundprofils ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Schaumstoff-Formkörper vor dem Zusammenfügen der Verbindungsstege mit dem Außenprofil und dem Innenprofil in komprimierter Form auf mindestens einem Verbindungssteg aufgebracht wird und dass das Verbundprofil nach dem Zusammenfügen der Verbindungsstege mit dem Außenprofil und dem Innenprofil einer Wärmebehandlung unterzogen wird.An inventive method for producing such a composite profile is characterized in that the foam molding is applied before joining the connecting webs with the outer profile and the inner profile in compressed form on at least one connecting web and that the composite profile after joining the connecting webs with the outer profile and the inner profile is subjected to a heat treatment.

Die Wärmebehandlung kann zweckmäßigerweise im Rahmen eines Pulverbeschichtungs-Verfahrens erfolgen, bei dem ein Pulver auf das Verbundprofil aufgebracht und dieses eingebrannt wird. Die Wärmebehandlung kann aber auch im Rahmen eines Eloxalverfahrens erfolgen.The heat treatment may conveniently be carried out in a powder coating process in which a powder is applied to the composite profile and this is baked. The heat treatment can also be carried out in the context of an anodizing process.

Weitere Besonderheiten und Vorzüge der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der folgenden Beschreibung eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels anhand der Zeichnung. Es zeigen:

FIG. 2
a composite profile with an in FIG. 1 shown connecting web before a heat treatment and

In Figur 1 ist ein Verbindungssteg 1 zur Verbindung eines in Figur 2 gezeigten Außenprofils 2 mit einem Innenprofil 3 eines Verbundprofils 4 gezeigt. Ein derartiges Verbundprofil 4 wird z.B. für Fenster-, Türen- und Fassadenkonstruktionen eingesetzt.In FIG. 1 is a connecting bridge 1 for connecting a in FIG. 2 shown outer profile 2 with an inner profile 3 of a composite profile 4 shown. Such a composite profile 4 is used for example for window, door and facade constructions.

Der Verbindungssteg 1 umfasst einen vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff bestehenden stegförmigen Profilkörper 5, an dem ein im Folgenden noch näher beschriebener Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 als Dämmelement angeordnet ist. Zur Verbindung mit dem Außenprofil 2 und dem Innenprofil 3 enthält der Profilkörper 5 endseitige Anschlussprofile 7, die hier als Anschlussstege mit trapezförmigem Querschnitt ausgebildet sind. Die Anschlussprofile 7 weisen einen sich schwalbenschwanzförmig nach außen erweiternden Querschnitt auf. An der einen Seitenfläche 8 des Profilkörpers 5 sind hakenförmig ausgebildete Seitenstege 9 zur Bildung von Aufnahmenuten 10 angeformt. In diese Aufnahmenuten 10 sind z.B. Dichtungen oder andere Einbauteile einsetzbar. An der anderen Seitenfläche 11 des Profilkörpers 5 ist der Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 befestigt. Bei der gezeigten Ausführung ist der Profilkörper 5 als Hohlkörper mit mehreren Hohlräumen 12 ausgeführt. Der Profilkörper 5 kann aber auch als Vollkörper ausgebildet sein.The connecting web 1 comprises a web-shaped profile body 5, preferably made of plastic, on which a foam molded body 6, which will be described in more detail below, is arranged as an insulating element. For connection to the outer profile 2 and the inner profile 3 of the profile body 5 contains end-side connection profiles 7, which are formed here as connecting webs with trapezoidal cross-section. The connection profiles 7 have a dovetail-shaped outwardly widening cross-section. On one side surface 8 of the profile body 5 hook-shaped side webs 9 are formed to form receiving grooves 10. In these receiving grooves 10 are e.g. Seals or other built-in parts can be used. On the other side surface 11 of the profile body 5 of the foam molding 6 is attached. In the embodiment shown, the profile body 5 is designed as a hollow body with a plurality of cavities 12. However, the profile body 5 may also be formed as a solid body.

Der auf dem Profilkörper 5 aufgebrachte Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 ist zunächst gegenüber seiner Ursprungsform komprimiert und behält bei normaler Umgebungstemperatur diesen komprimierten Zustand bei. Erst wenn der in komprimierter Form auf dem Profilkörper 5 befestigte Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 über eine vorgegebene Temperatur hinaus erwärmt wird, dehnt er sich aus und nimmt wieder seine Ursprungsform ein. Der Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 kann z.B. aus einem sogenannten Formgedächtnisschaum bestehen, der die Fähigkeit besitzt, eine komprimierte temporäre Form einzunehmen und nach einer Erwärmung oberhalb einer vorbestimmten Temperatur wieder zu expandieren und in seine Ursprungsform zurückzukehren. Der Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 besteht bei dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel aus einem offenzelligen Polyurethanschaum, der auf bis zu 1/20 seiner Ursprungsform komprimierbar ist und bei einer Erwärmung über ca. 70° seine Ursprungsform wieder einnimmt. Er weist einen sehr hohen Dämmwert von 0,03 bis 0,04 W/m2K auf und ist temperaturbeständig bis ca. 180°C. Der Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 kann in Form eines Streifens hergestellt werden und ist derart flexibel, dass er aufwickelbar ist und zur Herstellung der Verbindungsstege auf großen Spulen oder Rollen zugeführt werden kann. Bei der gezeigten Ausführung ist der Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 mit einem Klebeband versehen, so dass er an dem Profilkörper 5 festgeklebt werden kann.The foam molding 6 applied to the profile body 5 is initially compressed relative to its original shape and maintains this compressed state at normal ambient temperature. Only when the foam molded body 6 fastened in compressed form on the profile body 5 is heated above a predetermined temperature, it expands and resumes its original shape. The foam molding 6 may, for example, consist of a so-called shape memory foam, which has the ability to take a compressed temporary shape and to expand after heating above a predetermined temperature and return to its original form. The foam molded body 6 consists in the embodiment shown of an open-cell polyurethane foam which is compressible to up to 1/20 of its original form and resumes its original shape when heated to about 70 °. It has a very high insulation value of 0.03 to 0.04 W / m 2 K and is temperature resistant up to 180 ° C. The foam molded body 6 can be made in the form of a strip and is so flexible that it can be wound up and fed to large bobbins or rollers for the production of the connecting webs. In the embodiment shown, the foam molding 6 is provided with an adhesive tape, so that it can be glued to the profile body 5.

Bei dem in den Figuren 2 und 3 dargestellten Verbundprofil 4 sind die beiden aus Aluminium bestehenden Außen- und Innenprofile 2 und 3 durch einen erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungssteg 1 und einen konventionellen Verbindungssteg 13 miteinander verbunden. Der konventionelle Verbindungssteg 13 unterscheidet sich von dem erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungssteg 1 dadurch, dass auf diesem kein Schaumstoff-Formkörper angebracht ist und dass der Profilkörper 5 spiegelverkehrt angeordnet ist. Das Außenprofil 2 und das Innenprofil 3 könnten aber auch durch zwei erfindungsgemäße Verbindungsstege 1 miteinander verbunden sein.In the in the FIGS. 2 and 3 composite profile 4 shown are the two existing aluminum outer and inner profiles 2 and 3 by an inventive Connecting web 1 and a conventional connecting web 13 connected to each other. The conventional connecting web 13 differs from the connecting web 1 according to the invention in that no foam molded body is mounted on it and that the profile body 5 is arranged mirror-inverted. The outer profile 2 and the inner profile 3 could also be interconnected by two connecting webs 1 according to the invention.

Das Außen- und Innenprofil 2 bzw. 3 weisen für jeden der Anschlussstege 1 und 13 zwei voneinander beabstandete stegförmige Ansätze 14 und 15 zur Aufnahme und Fixierung der Verbindungsstege 1 bzw. 13 auf. Die Ansätze 14 und 15 stehen zunächst gerade von dem Außen- und Innenprofil vor und werden zur Befestigung der Verbindungsstege 1 und 3 z.B. durch einen Rollvorgang oder ein anderes geeignetes Formverfahren nach innen in Richtung der Anschlussprofile 7 gebogen. Dadurch wird eine form- und kraftschlüssige Verbindung zwischen dem Außen- und Innenprofil 2 bzw. 3 und den Verbindungsstegen 1 und 13 erreicht.The outer and inner profile 2 and 3 have for each of the connecting webs 1 and 13, two spaced web-shaped projections 14 and 15 for receiving and fixing the connecting webs 1 and 13 respectively. The lugs 14 and 15 initially protrude straight from the outer and inner profiles and are used for fastening the connecting webs 1 and 3, e.g. bent inwards in the direction of the connection profiles 7 by a rolling process or another suitable molding process. As a result, a positive and non-positive connection between the outer and inner profile 2 and 3 and the connecting webs 1 and 13 is achieved.

Vor dem Zusammenfügen der Verbindungsstege 1 und 13 mit dem Außen- und Innenprofil 2 bzw. 3 wird auf den Verbindungssteg 1 der vorkomprimierte Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 aufgeklebt. Dies kann bereits beim Herstellungsprozess des Verbindungsstegs im Rahmen des Herstellungsverfahrens erfolgen, da der Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 in Form eines Streifens oder Bands aufgewickelt und auf großen Spulen zugeführt werden kann. Der Verbindungssteg 1 kann dann mit dem komprimierten Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 an dem Außen- und Innenprofil 2 bzw. 3 montiert werden, wie dies in Figur 2 gezeigt ist.Before joining the connecting webs 1 and 13 with the outer and inner profile 2 and 3, the precompressed foam molding 6 is glued to the connecting web 1. This can already take place in the production process of the connecting web in the context of the manufacturing method, since the foam molded body 6 can be wound in the form of a strip or tape and fed on large coils. The connecting web 1 can then be mounted with the compressed foam molding 6 on the outer and inner profile 2 and 3, as in FIG. 2 is shown.

Durch eine anschließende Wärmebehandlung des Verbundprofils 4 nimmt der an dem Verbindungsprofil 1 angeordnete Schaumstoff-Formkörper 6 wieder seine ursprüngliche Form ein und füllt die Innenkammer 16 bis hin zum Verbindungsprofil 13 aus, wodurch sich die Wärmedämmeigenschaften wesentlich verbessern. Die Wärmebehandlung kann z.B. im Rahmen eines Pulverbeschichtungs- Verfahrens erfolgen, bei dem ein Pulver elektrostatisch oder tribostatisch aufgesprüht und anschließend bei Temperaturen zwischen 140 und 180°C eingebrannt wird.By a subsequent heat treatment of the composite profile 4, the arranged on the connecting profile 1 foam molding 6 again assumes its original shape and fills the inner chamber 16 up to the connection profile 13, which significantly improves the thermal insulation properties. The heat treatment may e.g. be carried out as part of a powder coating process in which a powder is sprayed electrostatically or tribostatically and then baked at temperatures between 140 and 180 ° C.
