Description

The present invention relates to a fastening device for producing a connection between a transom profile and a frame, a method for equipping a frame part with a transom profile by means of a fastening device and a profile arrangement.

In the field of facade construction, in particular in the field of the construction of window and door frames, there are basically two different approaches in the area of the surface elements used in the frame, in particular the glazings used. On the one hand, it is known to use large area elements in the frame, which are each bounded laterally by the frame parts, in particular frame profiles. On the other hand, it is also common to construct so-called lattice windows, wherein transversely running rungs, in particular rungs profiles are provided between the outer frame parts, in particular the outer frame profiles. A common example here is a cross-shaped rung arrangement between the outer lateral frame profiles. Such a window or door frame is thus divided (in such an exemplary cross-shaped rung arrangement) into four individual compartments, each compartment each having its own inserted surface element, in particular in each case a glass pane.

Such arrangements now have the disadvantage that conventionally there is no margin for the design of such frame profiles after installation has taken place once. So one is basically on a once chosen variant - full glazing compared with rung glazing - set; At the same time in the choice of rung glazing a subsequent removal or replacement of sprouts and / or a displacement of sprouts in known from the prior art solutions are not possible.

The present invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a fastening device for producing a connection between a transom profile and a frame, in particular a frame profile, and a method for providing a frame part with a transom profile by means of such a fastening device, with increased flexibility is ensured.

The object is achieved by a fastening device having the features of independent claim 1. Relative to the method, the object is achieved by a method having the features of independent patent claim 11.

Relative to the fastening device, the object is achieved in particular by the fact that a fastening device according to the invention for producing a connection between a transom profile and a frame part, in particular between a light metal center rung profile and a light metal frame profile of a window door frame, connectable with a rung-side part frame-side part wherein the rung-side part is adapted to be attached to the frame profile, and wherein the rung-side part is adapted to be associated with the frame-side part in such a way that the relative position and orientation of the rung profile defined with respect to the frame part is.

Based on the inventive method, the object is achieved in that the method for equipping a frame part, in particular a light metal frame profile of a window or door frame with a transom profile, in particular with a light metal center rung profile, the use of a fastening device provides, wherein the fastening means a With a process-step of positioning the rung-side part relative to the frame-side part such that a fastening profile of the rung-side part with a mounting portion of the frame-side part in Has engaged engagement and the process step of establishing a connection between the mounting portion of the rung-side part and the mounting portion of the frame-side part.

The advantages of the solution according to the invention are obvious.

Thus, the fact that the rung-side part is attached to the transom profile and only then brought into connection with the frame-side part, ensures that even if accidentally or deliberately a window or door frame, for example, at the installation was not yet equipped with a transom profile, a Retrofitting such a sprout profile is easily possible.

It should be noted at this point that the frame can be in particular a casement with a frame-sash combination. Otherwise, however, it is also possible to provide a frame of a general type (in particular in the case of direct glazing or the like) by means of the solution according to the invention with a transom profile.

The rung-side part is in this case arranged in particular on an end face of the rung profile, ie on an end face or end face with respect to the longitudinal extension direction of the rung profile. According to the intended use of the fastening device according to the invention, the arrangement of the frame-side part is usually rather central, but in any case spaced from the frame edge, so that after connecting the rung-side part with the frame-side part results in a more centrally arranged central rung. The rung profile then runs substantially perpendicular to the frame part, ie in particular to the frame profile, on which the frame-side part is arranged, ie in particular perpendicular to the frame profile to which the rung profile can be fastened or fastened by connecting the rung-side part with the frame-side part , Both in relation to the invention Fastening device, as well as in relation to the inventive method for equipping the frame part with the rung profile further results in the particular advantage that a simple installation directly at the installation, ie a retrofitting an already installed door or window frame with a transom profile under help the fastening device according to the invention, is easily possible.

Advantageous developments of the solution according to the invention are specified in the subclaims.

So it is based on the fastening device according to the invention, for example, possible to design the frame-side part connected to the rung-side part by means of at least one fixing element and in this case in particular by means of at least one connecting pin connected or connectable. This solution is particularly suitable if a corresponding channel for such a connecting pin is defined by the fact that at least one corresponding fastening area is formed both on the rung-side part and on the frame-side part, the fastening area or the respective fastening areas of the rung-side part and the frame-side part with a corresponding arrangement of the rung-side part relative to the frame-side part interlock or axially adjacent to each other, that a common channel for receiving and / or guiding the connecting pin is formed.

In this case, it is conceivable, in particular, to configure such a connection by means of at least one fixing element, in particular by means of at least one connecting pin, in particular by equipping the fastening channel of the fastening areas and / or the at least one connecting pin with corresponding latching devices.

Just as well, it is also conceivable to design the connection detachable in order to enable a later separation of frame part and transom profile, for example, to offset the transom profile later. In this case, it is in particular conceivable to expel the at least one connecting pin again by means of a suitable, for example, a hollow tool. For this purpose, it is expedient, the interlocking or axially adjacent mounting areas externally accessible to have access to the fixing element.

In an advantageous development of the solution according to the invention, it is provided that the rung-side part has at least one flexible position-retaining element. Such a position retaining element may in particular be at least one position spring. This at least one flexible position-retaining element is designed to ensure that the rung-side part is held in position during at least one temporally limited step of an assembly process. This simplifies the assembly process again considerably. Thus, the rung profile can be provided in particular in a frontal end region with such a further developed rung-side part and then the rung profile relative to the frame part, d. H. in particular to the frame profile, without disturbing the rung-side part during this step of positioning.

Then, in overcoming the holding force of the at least one flexible position-retaining element of the rung-side part, d. H. In particular, by overcoming the spring force, the rung-side part arranged on the transom profile can be moved into a position, so that in this next step the attachment region of the transom-side part engages with the attachment region of the frame-side part. As a result, a simple mounting of the transom profile on the frame part with the aid of the fastening device according to the invention is possible without a special locking or Entriegelungsproblematik would result.

A profile arrangement provided with a fastening device according to the invention with at least one frame part and at least one rung profile has the particular advantage of flexibility of the rungs arranged on the frame part, in particular with respect to the position of the rung, whereby it is possible by using the fastening device according to the invention Rung profile also be retrofitted related to its position. Even with a possible damage to the transom profile thus a simple exchange is given.

In such a profile arrangement with at least one frame part and at least one rung profile, the profile arrangement having at least one fastening device according to the invention, it can be provided that the rung-side part is at least partially inserted into the rung profile. In this case, it is particularly possible to at least partially insert the rung-side part of the fastening device into a cavity formed in the transom profile inner shell and / or in a transom profile outer shell so that the transom-side part runs at least partially concealed in the cavity of the transom profile and thus does not have an additional one Space required. It can also be provided that an attachment of the rung-side part takes place on the transom profile when the rung-side part is at least partially inserted into the transom profile. In this case, it lends itself in particular to provide an access opening in the transom profile, through which both a displacement of the rung-side part within the transom profile is possible, as well as after a successful displacement operation, for example by means of a locking element attachment to the transom profile is possible.

In addition to increased stability of the attached to the frame part rung profile and increased torsional stiffness, which results from the at least partially introducing the rung-side part in the rung profile, the assembly process is simplified and improved by such a development.

According to a further aspect of the invention it is provided that the rung-side part is at least partially inserted both in the inner profile half-shell of the rung profile and in the outer profile half shell of the rung profile. In this case, the at least one frame part has an inner profile half shell of a frame profile and an outer profile half shell of the frame profile. The frame-side part of the fastening device is in this case designed to be fastened to the inner profile half-shell of the frame profile on the outer profile half shell of the frame profile. In other words: The frame-side part of the fastening device is connected by attachment both to the inner and to the outer half shell of the frame profile. By such a console solution the maintenance of a rung profile attached to the frame profile is again improved; At the same time, the torsional stiffness of the entire assembly is increased.

Advantageously comes for the interaction between frame-side part and rung-side part a rail-like training for use, the positioning of the rung profile relative to the frame profile is absolutely improved relative to the offset and rotation.

The expression according to which the rung-side part is at least partially inserted both into the inner half shell of the rung profile and into the outer profile half shell of the rung profile is to be understood as meaning that the rung-side part is partially or substantially completely inserted into the rung profile.

In an advantageous development of the solution according to the invention it is provided that the frame-side part is an integral part of the frame part. In particular, if the frame part is a frame profile, such an integral part forming the frame-side part is preferably designed as a profile shell projection. The at least one fixing element, which establishes the connection between the rung-side part and the now integrally formed frame-side part, in this case is a rotatable hook arranged on the rung-side part, which can be brought into locking connection with the profile half-shell projection when a rotational movement is carried out.

Such a profiled shell projection can be designed, in particular, in the form of a folded projection or possibly several folds which define a fastening channel. In particular, if such a profile shell projection is already present in the frame profile and preferably full length, a mounting of the rung profile is easily possible; a subsequent change of the rung profile position or a subsequent replacement of the rung profile is possibly easily possible in this case. In particular, when the profile arrangement has two oppositely disposed end-side first frame profiles and at least a first rung profile of the profile arrangement between these arranged opposite parallel frame profiles, it may be provided according to a further aspect of the invention that the at least one first rung profile with its respective end face by means of one of the fastening devices on the respective frame profiles opposite each other attached or fastened.

In other words, it is both a compound of a front side of the at least one first rung profile made with one of the two mutually parallel end-side first frame profiles, as well as a connection of the at least one first rung profile with its respective other end face by means of one of the fastening means with the other of the opposite end-side first frame profiles produced. As a result, a particularly stable attachment is given.

In a further development of the profile arrangement described above, it may be provided that in addition two oppositely disposed end side second frame profiles are provided which extend perpendicular to the first frame profiles, wherein at least a second rung profile of the profile arrangement with an end face by means of one of the fastening means on the rung profile attached and attachable. In other words, one of the end faces of such a further at least one second transom profile of the profile arrangement is in turn centrally fastened to the first transversely extending first transom profile, whereby the frame is subdivided into further compartments. By arranging at least one further second rung profile on the opposite side of the fastening area between the above-described second rung profile and the at least one first rung profile, a window or a door with a cross-shaped rung division can thus be obtained.

With regard to the method according to the invention, it can be provided in a further development of the method that the frame-side part is fastened to the frame profile relative to the frame-side part before the method step of positioning the rung-side part. In particular, when the fastening device is loosely formed in several parts, if the frame-side part is not integrally formed with the frame profile, thus a flexible positioning of the frame part, ie in particular to be arranged on the frame profile rung in the form of the rung profile is possible.

In a further development of the method according to the invention, it is provided that, for the purpose of positioning the rung-side part, firstly an alignment of the end face of the rung profile to be mounted on the frame-side part takes place. Subsequently, an at least partial insertion of an assembly tool into an access opening of the rung profile takes place. In this case, it makes sense for the rung-side part, which is at least partially inserted into the rung profile, to have at least one flexible position-retaining element in order to ensure positional alignment of the rung-side part in the rung profile during the alignment of the end face of the rung profile to be mounted on the frame-side part. Subsequently, moving the mounting tool from a first position to a second position causes the rung-side part to be displaced relative to the rung profile and in particular longitudinally within the rung profile, so that the attachment area of the rung-side part engages with the attachment area of the frame-side part. As a result, the assembly process is simplified again.

In a further embodiment of the method according to the invention, if the method for retrofitting a frame part with a transom profile is used, it is additionally provided that a possibly existing surface element, in particular a possibly present glass pane, is first removed from the frame part in order to or to prepare door frames for retrofitting. Subsequently, the method described above for equipping the frame part with the at least one rung profile can be used.

The solution according to the invention will be explained in more detail below on the basis of exemplary embodiments.
