Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of mounting a frame on a building structure, as well as a frame for a building structure.
  • a frame e.g. for a window or for a door on a building structure, such as in an opening in the building structure
  • the method of mounting a frame on a building structure may be time consuming and difficult when a high quality is to be maintained.
  • An increased difficulty and thus an increased time consumption may arise when e.g. frames of one size is to be mounted in openings of varying size.
  • the user needs to consider e.g. which types of attachment means, such as bolts or similar, to use, and in what distance from the frame they are to be provided in the building structure.
  • the frame may be at least partly destroyed during the dismounting so that one or more parts of the frame have to be replaced.
  • EP0756044 A1 relates to a carrying structure comprising two uprights formed by structure parts. On their faces, the structure parts have a channel or a C-shaped groove. A panel is fitted on the uprights by two invisible fasteners. Each fastener comprises a panel button with a cylindrical body extended by a projecting head and a screw fastening hole. A button support, which engages in the upright channel, has a passage for the button head and a cradle against which the button abuts. A head holder ensures, after engagement of the button body, anchoring of the button in its support. The button support has a support fixing. The button support has a wedging ramp which guides the button head and ensures the bringing together of the panel and the structure during engagement of the button.
  • the mounting assembly comprises a mounting plate provided with a hollow bracket for receiving the head of a fastening member and with a groove for receiving a threaded rod. Additionally, the mounting assembly comprises a vertical guide, and the mounting plate is installed on the guide in such a way as to be capable of vertical movement.
  • the rear side of the mounting plate is provided with fastening brackets, with the aid of which the mounting plate is installed on the guide.
  • the hollow bracket for receiving the head of a fastening member and the groove for receiving a threaded rod are both open at two opposite ends.
  • Mounting a frame on a building structure may comprise installing e.g. a door frame on the building structure in an opening of the building structure.
  • the opening may have been adapted to fit in size with the door frame.
  • little room may be available for installing the door frame in the opening which may result in a complicated and time-consuming working process.
  • providing a method of mounting/installing a frame in a simple and fast manner is advantageous.
  • a frame which comprises a frame element and a coupling member, and an attachment member may not be directed towards a specific use, i.e. whether the frame is used for a door, window, wall etc.
  • the method provided in the present invention may be carried out independently of what the frame is used for.
  • the user may only need to know one method of mounting a frame to install different types of frames.
  • Arranging a coupling member slidably on the outer periphery of the frame element facilitates that the user does not initially need to determine and consider the exact position of the coupling member relative to the frame element. This is because the coupling member may be slid in a direction parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element and thus may subsequently be adjusted to the correct final position relative to the attachment member.
  • the subsequent adjustment may be carried out either before or after arrangement of the frame relative to the building structure. However, advantageously the adjustment may be carried out after said arrangement e.g. if the frame is to be installed in an opening in a building structure, and the clearance between the frame and the opening is minimal.
  • the user only has to consider providing attachment member(s) vertically on top of each other in the building structure. The adjustment of the frame follows subsequently.
  • a coupling member comprising a receiving portion, which is adapted to receive an attachment member
  • the receiving portion may surround the attachment member at least partly which may result in that the frame and coupling member being fixed relative to the attachment member.
  • the user wants the frame to be fixed (at least temporarily or in a releasable manner) relative to the attachment member(s) and thus to the building structure so that the frame does not move, unless if intended, and e.g. keep its vertical orientation.
  • the receiving portion provided in the present invention may have the form of an indentation, opening, recess or similar in the coupling member.
  • the receiving portion may e.g. be formed as an indentation starting from an edge of the coupling member.
  • the two sides of the receiving portion may converge from the edge and meet a certain distance from the edge, i.e. the receiving portion may have the shape of a triangle.
  • the user when sliding the coupling member in a direction parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element after arranging the frame element adjacent to the attachment member, the user does not have to arrange the frame element precisely relative to the attachment member in the direction orthogonal to the extension of the frame element, only within the vicinity of the attachment member.
  • the two converging sides of the receiving portion may guide the attachment member towards the point at which said sides meet, and the receiving portion surrounds the attachment member at least partly and fixes the frame and coupling member relative to the attachment member.
  • the receiving portion may guide the attachment member towards the point at which said sides meet, and the receiving portion surrounds the attachment member at least partly and fixes the frame and coupling member relative to the attachment member.
  • other shapes of receiving portions and other methods of how the receiving portion receives the attachment member and fixes the frame and coupling member to the attachment member are foreseen within the present invention.
  • an attachment member comprising a first end attached to a building structure and a second free end does not limit the attachment member to e.g. a linear extension.
  • the attachment member may also initially have a linear extension, but has been bent on the middle, so that the two open ends of the attachment member are attached to the building structure, while the bent end protrudes from the building structure and thus is the second free end of the attachment member.
  • other shapes of attachment members such as non-linear, substantially circular, multiple bent-shaped, etc. are foreseen within the present invention.
  • the present invention provides an easy, simple and thus time-efficient method of mounting a frame on a building structure.
  • the receiving portion can be adapted to receive the attachment member in a releasable manner.
  • the user may then easily release the frame from its attachment/installation/mount on the building structure if wanted which may be desirable if another type of e.g. window or wall is to be installed without destroying the frame or coupling member.
  • the frame and coupling member may be used again.
  • the provision of a coupling member on an outer periphery of the frame element can comprise applying a force on the coupling member in a direction orthogonal to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element until the coupling member and the frame element engage.
  • the coupling member when providing the coupling member on said outer periphery, the user simply has to apply a pressure on the coupling member in a direction orthogonal to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element until the coupling member and the frame element engage.
  • the step of providing the coupling member on said outer periphery is simple and fast.
  • the engagement may be provided in steps where the coupling member and the frame element move closer for each step which means that the user may have to apply a pressure on the coupling member for reaching each step of engagement.
  • the coupling member may also be provided on the outer periphery of the frame element by the user applying a pressure in a direction e.g. parallel to the first longitudinal axis A or in any other direction.
  • the size and shape of the frame element and of the coupling members may be constant no matter what the frame is meant to be used for, e.g. for a window, a door, or something else.
  • one size and type of coupling member and frame element may fit any type of frame.
  • a coupling member and a frame element can engage in a releasable manner, when providing the coupling member on the outer periphery of the frame element. If e.g. the user changes his mind about providing the coupling member on said outer periphery of the frame element, or if the frame has to be removed from the building structure, the coupling member may advantageously engage with the frame element in a releasable manner, so that the coupling member may be removed from or manipulated relative to the frame element. Removing the frame from the building structure may comprise sliding the coupling member in a direction parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element so that the coupling member and the attachment member do no engage anymore. The coupling member may also have been worn down or may even have been destroyed for which reason engagement in a releasable manner is advantageous.
  • the provision of a coupling member on an outer periphery of the frame element can comprise arranging the coupling member relative to the frame element so that a first longitudinal axis B of the coupling member is parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element.
  • arranging the coupling member relative to the frame element so that a first longitudinal axis B of the coupling member is parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element may be a simple and easy way to arrange a coupling member on an outer periphery of the frame element without the need for a manual or such.
  • the sliding of the coupling member in a direction that is parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element can comprise applying a force on the coupling member in the direction that is parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element, where the force exceeds a frictional resistance between the coupling member and the frame element.
  • the coupling member may be easily adjusted relative to the frame element by arranging the coupling member slidably and moreover, may easily be readjusted if necessary.
  • the sliding may be resisted by a frictional resistance between the coupling member and the frame element.
  • the receiving portion of the coupling member may receive the attachment member.
  • the frame may be fixed relative to the attachment member and may therefore hang/suspend stationary on the attachment member as long as the stationary frictional force between the coupling member and the frame element exceeds the gravitational force on the frame.
  • the total stationary frictional force between the coupling members and the frame element(s) is taken into account.
  • the point of contact between the coupling member and the frame element may e.g. be sides of the coupling member and of the frame element.
  • the sides may be either mutually parallel or not, and/or the sides of the coupling member may be elastically mounted on the body of the coupling member so that the sides of the coupling member and of the frame element are not mutually parallel before engagement, but may be arranged parallel after engagement.
  • the frictional force to be exceeded for the coupling member to be able to slide may be the frictional force between the contacting/engaging sides of the coupling member and the frame element.
  • a frame for being mounted on a building structure, said frame comprising a frame element with a first longitudinal axis A and a coupling member, the coupling member being adapted to be slidably arranged on an outer periphery of the frame element in a direction parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element, and where the coupling member comprises a receiving portion adapted to receive an attachment member, such as a bolt, and adapted to surround the attachment member at least partly and to fix the frame and coupling member relative to the attachment member.
  • an attachment member such as a bolt
  • Having a frame, which comprises a frame element and a coupling member for mounting the frame, results in a minimum number of elements for the user to consider.
  • the frame element and coupling member may have constant sizes independent of the specific use of the frame, i.e. whether the frame is applied for a door, window, wall etc. Thus, if a coupling member has to be replaced, the user does not have to consider what the specific use of the frame is. However, it is foreseen within the present invention that the frame elements and the coupling members may have varying sizes and shapes.
  • the coupling member may be adjusted relative to the frame element at any time during mounting of the frame.
  • the adjustment may be carried out either before or after the frame has been arranged relative to the building structure.
  • the adjustment may be carried out after the arrangement e.g. if the frame is to be installed in an opening in the building structure, and the clearance between the frame and the building structure is minimal.
  • a coupling member comprising a receiving portion, which may surround an attachment member at least partly and which may facilitate fixing the frame and coupling member relative to the attachment member, results in that the frame does not move unless intended.
  • the receiving portion provided in the present invention may have the form of an indentation, opening, recess or a combination thereof in the coupling member.
  • the receiving portion may e.g. be formed as an indentation starting from an edge of the coupling member.
  • the two sides of the receiving portion may converge from the edge and meet a certain distance from the edge by bending towards each other in a circular path. For example, when sliding the coupling member in a direction parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element after arranging the frame element adjacent to the attachment member, the user does not have to arrange the frame element precisely relative to the attachment member in the direction orthogonal to the extension of the frame element, only within the vicinity of the attachment member.
  • the two converging sides of the receiving portion may guide the attachment member towards the point at which said sides meet, and the receiving portion surrounds the attachment member at least partly and fixes the frame and coupling member relative to the attachment member.
  • the receiving portion may guide the attachment member towards the point at which said sides meet, and the receiving portion surrounds the attachment member at least partly and fixes the frame and coupling member relative to the attachment member.
  • other shapes of receiving portions and thus other methods of the receiving portion receiving the attachment member and fixing the frame and coupling member to the attachment member are foreseen within the present invention.
  • the receiving portion of the coupling member can be adapted to receive an attachment member, such as a bolt, in a releasable manner. Having the receiving portion receive the attachment member in a releasable manner ensures that the user may remove the frame from its mount, if desired, or may alter the position of the frame relative to the attachment members, if wanted, without destroying the frame, the frame element, the coupling member, the receiving portion or the attachment member(s).
  • an attachment member such as a bolt
  • the coupling member can be adapted to engage with the frame element by use of an engagement means.
  • an engagement means for providing a connection between the coupling member and the frame element is known to be reliable.
  • the engagement means may e.g. be arranged at the point of contact between the coupling member and the frame element.
  • the coupling member may comprise a first part of the engagement means and the frame element may comprise the corresponding second part of the engagement means, or vice versa.
  • the coupling member or the frame element may comprise the engagement means.
  • the engagement means may be accountable for at least part of a frictional resistance between the coupling member and the frame element so that the coupling member will not slide freely on an outer periphery of the frame element in a direction parallel to the first longitudinal axis A, and so that the complexity of the frame structure is minimal.
  • the coupling member can be adapted to engage with the frame element in a releasable manner.
  • the user may want to rearrange or even entirely remove the coupling member relative to the frame element, if e.g. the frame is to be mounted on another building structure in which the attachment member is arranged differently, or the coupling member needs to be replaced due to wear.
  • the engagement means can comprise at least one protrusion arranged on the coupling member and/or on the frame element.
  • Engagement means may comprise various different shapes and sizes and may be arranged on either the coupling member or the frame element or on both.
  • Providing an engagement means comprising at least one protrusion arranged on the coupling member and/or on the frame element results in a reliable, easy-functioning and simple to produce engagement means.
  • the at least one protrusion may take the shape of e.g. a tap or a ridge. If arranged on both the coupling member and the frame element, the protrusions may have corresponding shapes. If e.g. arranged only on the coupling member, the frame element may comprise a corresponding hole/recess or edge for facilitating the engagement.
  • the engagement means may e.g. be arranged on the coupling member such that at least part of the protrusions is protruding in a direction opposite the direction of the provision of the coupling member on an outer periphery of the frame element.
  • the engagement means may e.g. be arranged on the frame element such that at least part of the protrusions is protruding in the same direction as the provision of the coupling member on an outer periphery of the frame element.
  • the taps may be arranged such that at least two taps are arranged on a line being parallel with a longitudinal axis of the coupling member or of the frame element to facilitate easy sliding of the coupling member relative to the frame element.
  • the at least one protrusion can extend at least part of the length of the coupling member and/or of the frame element in a direction parallel with a longitudinal axis B of the coupling member and/or with the longitudinal axis A of the frame element, respectively.
  • Protrusions which extend at least part of the length of the coupling member and/or of the frame element, such as ridges or several protrusions on a line, may facilitate the sliding of the coupling member relative to the frame element.
  • Such protrusions may be used to slide the coupling member relative to the frame element.
  • the protrusions provide stability to the engagement/connection between the coupling member and the frame element when the at least one protrusion extends at least part of the length of the coupling member and/or the frame element, compared to if the protrusions take the shape of e.g. single taps or similar.
  • the majority of the force is then converted to sliding the coupling member, and the user does not have to consider wobble/play in the engagement/connection between the coupling member and the frame element.
  • said protrusions may be used as a guiding means for the user to provide the coupling member on an outer periphery of the frame element if said protrusions are arranged on both the coupling member and the frame element as the user merely has to orient said protrusions parallel to each other.
  • the engagement means can comprise two or more protrusions arranged on the coupling member and/or on the frame element, where the two or more protrusions are spaced apart with a predefined value.
  • the user cannot always be certain that the clearing/space between the frame and the building structure is a predefined value. Sometimes, it will be more and sometimes it will be less than what is expected.
  • providing two or more protrusions on the coupling member and/or the frame element is advantageous as the user has the possibility of adjusting the distance between the coupling member and the attachment member if e.g. the two or more protrusions are spaced apart and arranged with varying distance from the receiving part of the coupling member.
  • the two or more protrusions may take the shape of protrusions, such as ridges, extending at least part of the length of the coupling member and/or the frame element in a direction parallel to their respective longitudinal axes B and A.
  • a predefined value e.g. with steps of 1 or 2 mm
  • the user may adjust the distance between the coupling member and the attachment member by rearranging the engagement between the coupling member and the frame element.
  • providing two or more protrusions may lead to increased stability of the engagement.
  • the extension of the frame element can be longer than the extension of the coupling member, and/or the width of the frame element can be equal to or larger than the width of the coupling member. If the extension of the frame element is longer than the extension of the coupling member, the coupling member may be slid along the frame element. Thus, the orientation of the coupling member(s) may be adjusted relative to the orientation of the attachment member(s). Furthermore, when the width of the frame element is equal to or larger than the width of the coupling member, the coupling member may be provided at least partly within the frame element. Thus, when the frame has been mounted on the building structure, the coupling member(s) is not visible. Only the frame is visible which may improve the visual presentation of the frame.
  • said frame element can be mounted on or produced as part of the frame.
  • the frame element may advantageously be mounted on already existing frames for windows, doors etc.

  • the distal points/edges of said two or more protrusions 15,15',15",15"',15”” may protrude away from said outer surfaces 16,16' in a direction defined by an angle being less than 90° relative to said outer surfaces 16,16' and directed away from the open second ends 11 ",12" of the respective first 11 and second side 12 of the coupling means 3.
  • the two or more protrusions 15,15',15",15"',15”” may be spaced apart with a predefined value.
  • Fig. 2b illustrates that the frame element 2 may comprise a bottom surface 5 and a first 6 and second side surface 7 together defining at least part of an outer periphery 4 of the frame element 2.
  • the first 6 and second side surface 7 may be mutually parallel and may both be orthogonal to the bottom surface 5.
  • the frame element 2 may comprise at least one protrusion arranged on the frame element 2, which is illustrated in the embodiment of Fig. 2b by a first 8 and second protrusion 9 arranged on the first 6 and second side surface 7 of the frame element 2 and protruding into an inner opening 10 of the frame element 2 defined by the bottom surface 5 and first 6 and second side surfaces 7 of the frame element 2.
  • Fig. 2c illustrates that the coupling member 3 may be provided on the outer periphery 4 of the frame element 2 by applying a force F illustrated by the arrow on the coupling member 3 in a direction that is orthogonal to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element 2.
  • the coupling member 3 and the frame element 2 engage by use of an engagement means which may comprise the two or more protrusions 15,15',15",15"',15”" of the coupling member 3 and the first 8 and second protrusion 9 of the frame element 2.
  • the distance between the front side 13 and the bottom surface 5 may be varied.
  • the distance between the front side 13 and the bottom surface 5 may be decreased by applying a further force F on the coupling member 3 so that a pair of protrusions 15,15' further away from the open second ends 11 ",12" engage with the first 8 and second protrusion 9 of the frame element 2.
  • Fig. 3 shows an exemplary embodiment of a frame 1 comprising a window 19, where the frame 1 is mounted on a building structure 20 within an opening 21 of the building structure 20.
  • a first 22, second 23, third 24 and fourth attachment member 25 is provided in the building structure 20, said attachment members 22,23,24,25 comprising first ends 22',23',24',25', which are attached to the building structure 20, and second free ends 22",23",24",25".
  • the frame 1 has been arranged in the opening 21 of the building structure 20 at the desired position relative to the building structure 20 adjacent the attachment members 22,23,24,25.
  • a first 3, second 3', third 3" and fourth coupling member 3'" may initially each be arranged above an attachment member 22,23,24,25. Then, each of the coupling members 3,3',3",3'” may have been slid in a direction (i.e. vertically down) parallel to the first longitudinal axis A of the frame element 2 e.g. by use of a hammer to exceed a frictional resistance between the coupling members 3,3',3",3"' and the frame element 2 until the receiving parts 17 of the coupling members 3,3',3",3"' surround the attachment members 22,23,24,25 at least partly and fix the frame 1 and coupling members 3,3',3",3"' relative to the attachment members 22,23,24,25.
  • the frame 1 is mounted on the building structure 20.
