Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Pfosten-Riegel-Konstruktion, insbesondere für Fassaden oder Lichtdächer, mit einem oberen Pfosten, der auf einem unteren Pfosten abgestützt ist, wobei an dem oberen Pfosten ein Entwässerungskanal ausgebildet ist, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The present invention relates to a mullion and transom construction, in particular for facades or light roofs, with an upper post which is supported on a lower post, a drainage channel being formed on the upper post, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Die EP 1 959 067 offenbart eine Fassade ein Lichtdach für Gebäude, bei dem metallische Pfosten- und Riegelprofile eingesetzt werden. Hierbei ist es bekannt, dass an den Pfostenprofilen benachbart zu einer Schraubnut Entwässerungsnuten ausgebildet sind. Werden zwei Pfosten übereinander angeordnet, so fluchten die Entwässerungsnuten, so dass eindringende Feuchtigkeit über die gesamte Höhe der Pfostenprofile geführt wird. Gerade bei längeren Pfosten ist eine Ableitung von Wasser aus dem Entwässerungskanal auch oberhalb einer unteren Sammelstelle wünschenswert.The EP 1 959 067 discloses a facade a light roof for buildings in which metallic post and transom profiles are used. Here it is known that drainage grooves are formed on the post profiles adjacent to a screw groove. If two posts are placed on top of each other, the drainage grooves are aligned so that penetrating moisture is guided over the entire height of the post profiles. Especially with longer posts, it is desirable to drain water from the drainage channel above a lower collection point.

Die EP 846 832 offenbart eine Pfosten-Riegel-Konstruktion mit einem in Entwässerungsnuten von außen einsteckbaren Entwässerungsteil.The EP 846 832 discloses a post-and-beam construction with a drainage part which can be inserted into drainage grooves from the outside.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Pfosten-Riegel-Konstruktion zu schaffen, die eine Ableitung von Wasser aus einem Entwässerungskanal auch an einer Verbindungsstelle zwischen zwei Pfosten ermöglicht.It is therefore the object of the present invention to create a post-and-beam construction which enables water to be drained from a drainage channel even at a connection point between two posts.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit einer Pfosten-Riegel-Konstruktion mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with a post-and-bar construction with the features of claim 1.

Erfindungsgemäß umfasst die Pfosten-Riegel-Konstruktion einen oberen Pfosten und einen unteren Pfosten, zwischen denen zumindest im Bereich des Entwässerungskanals ein Dichtungselement angeordnet ist, und das Wasser in dem Entwässerungskanal oberhalb des Dichtungselementes aus dem Entwässerungskanal abgeleitet wird. Dadurch kann an einer Verbindungsstelle zwischen zwei Pfosten eine Ableitung von Wasser aus dem Entwässerungskanal erfolgen, so dass an einer darunter liegenden (unteren) Sammelstelle das anfallende Wasser reduziert wird. Zudem kann bei einem etwaigen Eindringen von Wasser dieses kurz unterhalb des Eindringungsortes wieder abgeleitet werden, ohne dass es durch die ganze Konstruktion nach unten läuft.According to the invention, the post-and-bar construction comprises an upper post and a lower post, between which a sealing element is arranged at least in the area of the drainage channel, and the water in the drainage channel above the sealing element is drained from the drainage channel. As a result, water can be drained from the drainage channel at a connection point between two posts, so that the accumulating water is reduced at a (lower) collecting point below. In addition, if water penetrates, it can be drained off again just below the point of penetration without running down through the entire structure.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist der Entwässerungskanal an dem oberen Pfosten als geschlossene, in Längsrichtung des Pfostens verlaufende Hohlkammer ausgebildet und oberhalb des Dichtelementes ist mindestens eine Entwässerungsöffnung vorgesehen. Die im Querschnitt geschlossene Ausbildung des Entwässerungskanals hat den Vorteil, dass das Wasser im nicht sichtbaren Bereich abgeführt wird, wobei zur Ableitung des Wassers mindestens eine Entwässerungsöffnung vorgesehen wird, insbesondere an einer Außenseite des Pfostens.According to the invention, the drainage channel is on the upper post as a closed, running in the longitudinal direction of the post Hollow chamber is formed and at least one drainage opening is provided above the sealing element. The closed cross-section of the drainage channel has the advantage that the water is drained away in the non-visible area, at least one drainage opening being provided for draining the water, in particular on an outside of the post.

Das Dichtelement ist vorzugsweise aus einem elastischen Material ausgebildet, das zwischen den Wänden des oberen und unteren Pfostens eingefügt ist. Hierfür kann das Dichtelement plattenförmig ausgebildet sein und beispielsweise eine Dicke zwischen 0,1 mm bis 4 mm, insbesondere 1 mm bis 3 mm, besitzen. Das Dichtelement dichtet den Entwässerungskanal so weit ab, dass das in dem oberen Pfosten nach unten laufende Wasser nicht weiter durch den Entwässerungskanal und/oder weiteren Kammern, Kanäle und Nuten läuft, sondern über die mindestens eine Entwässerungsöffnung abgeleitet wird.The sealing element is preferably formed from a resilient material which is inserted between the walls of the upper and lower posts. For this purpose, the sealing element can be designed in the form of a plate and, for example, have a thickness between 0.1 mm to 4 mm, in particular 1 mm to 3 mm. The sealing element seals the drainage channel so far that the water running down in the upper post no longer runs through the drainage channel and / or further chambers, channels and grooves, but is drained off via the at least one drainage opening.

Vorzugsweise ist das Dichtelement an einem Dichtungsstück angeformt, an dem ein Einspritzkanal für Dichtmasse ausgebildet ist. Dann kann nach der Montage des Dichtungselementes Dichtungsmasse in den Entwässerungskanal eingespritzt werden, beispielsweise um einen Abstand zwischen dem Dichtungselement und der Entwässerungsöffnung an dem oberen Pfosten zu überbrücken. Die Dichtungsmasse wird dann in der bevorzugten Ausführung bis zu der Entwässerungsöffnung in den oberen Pfosten injiziert, so dass herunterlaufendes Wasser in dem Entwässerungskanal auf die Dichtungsmasse auftrifft und dann durch die Entwässerungsöffnung abgeleitet wird.The sealing element is preferably molded onto a sealing piece on which an injection channel for sealing compound is formed. Then, after assembly of the sealing element, sealing compound can be injected into the drainage channel, for example in order to bridge a distance between the sealing element and the drainage opening on the upper post. In the preferred embodiment, the sealing compound is then injected into the upper post up to the drainage opening, so that water running down in the drainage channel hits the sealing compound and is then drained through the drainage opening.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung ist das Dichtungselement an einem Dichtungsstück angeformt, das mit mindestens einer Leiste an einer Nut des oberen und/ oder unteren Pfostens fixiert ist. Dabei kann an einer Leiste an dem oberen Pfosten eine Ablaufschräge ausgebildet sein, um das aus der Entwässerungsöffnung austretende Wasser abzuleiten.In a further embodiment, the sealing element is molded onto a sealing piece, which is fixed with at least one strip on a groove of the upper and / or lower post. In this case, a drainage slope can be formed on a bar on the upper post in order to drain off the water emerging from the drainage opening.

Für eine einfache Montage können der obere Pfosten und der untere Pfosten ein identisches Querschnittsprofil aufweisen, so dass die Pfosten in der gewünschten Länge abgeschnitten und wieder zusammengesetzt werden können. Dabei kann ein Verbinder an der Verbindungsstelle zwischen dem oberen und dem unteren Pfosten eingesetzt werden, insbesondere ein Verbinder zum Einfügen in eine Hohlkammer.For easy assembly, the upper post and the lower post can have an identical cross-sectional profile, so that the posts can be cut to the desired length and reassembled. A connector can be used at the connection point between the upper and lower posts, in particular a connector for insertion into a hollow chamber.

The invention is explained in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings. Show it:

Bei einer in Figur 1 gezeigten Pfosten-Riegel-Konstruktion 1 ist ein oberer Pfosten 2 mit einem unteren Pfosten 2' verbunden. Die Pfosten 2 und 2' können aus Metall, insbesondere aus Aluminium, hergestellt sein und weisen eine oder mehrere Hohlkammern und Nuten auf, wobei in einer Hohlkammer ein Verbinder 3 eingefügt ist, um den oberen Pfosten 2 stabil an dem unteren Pfosten 2' zu fixieren. Die Pfosten 2 und 2' können für eine Pfosten-Riegel-Konstruktion 1 bei einer Fassade, einem Lichtdach, einem Schrägdach oder anderen Konstruktionen eingesetzt werden. Meist werden in einer solchen Pfosten-Riegel-Konstruktion Füllungselemente, wie Isolierglasscheiben, randseitig an Dichtleisten fixiert. Hierfür sind an den Pfosten 2 und 2' Nuten vorgesehen, in die an einer Außenseite zwei parallele und beabstandete Dichtleisten 5 eingezogen sind.With an in Figure 1 An upper post 2 is connected to a lower post 2 '. The posts 2 and 2 'can be made of metal, in particular aluminum, and have one or more hollow chambers and grooves, a connector 3 being inserted in a hollow chamber in order to fix the upper post 2 in a stable manner on the lower post 2' . The posts 2 and 2 'can be used for a post-and-beam construction 1 in a facade, a light roof, a sloping roof or other structures. In such a post-and-rail construction, filling elements, such as insulating glass panes, are usually fixed to the edge of sealing strips. For this purpose, grooves are provided on the posts 2 and 2 ', into which two parallel and spaced-apart sealing strips 5 are drawn on an outside.

Zwischen den Dichtleisten 5 ist an den Pfosten 2 und 2' eine Nut 6 ausgebildet, die zur Fixierung von Befestigungsmitteln dient, insbesondere um eine Andruckleiste an den Pfosten 2 und 2' zu montieren, um die Füllungselemente klemmend an den Dichtleisten 5 zu fixieren.Between the sealing strips 5, a groove 6 is formed on the posts 2 and 2 ', which is used to fix fastening means, in particular to mount a pressure strip on the posts 2 and 2' in order to fix the filling elements to the sealing strips 5 in a clamping manner.

In Figur 2 ist eine Schnittansicht durch den Pfosten 2 gezeigt, der eine im Wesentlichen rechteckförmige Hohlkammer aufweist, in die der Verbinder 3 eingefügt ist. An einer Außenseite sind Nuten 4 zur Fixierung der Dichtleisten 5 sowie ein mittige Nut 6 ausgebildet. Hinter dem Nutboden der Nut 6 ist ein Entwässerungskanal 7 ausgebildet, der in einer geschlossenen Hohlkammer verläuft. Benachbart zu dem Entwässerungskanal 7 sind weitere Hohlkammern 8 ausgebildet, die jeweils benachbart zu den Nuten 4 vorgesehen sind.In Figure 2 a sectional view through the post 2 is shown, which has a substantially rectangular hollow chamber into which the connector 3 is inserted. Grooves 4 for fixing the sealing strips 5 and a central groove 6 are formed on an outer side. A drainage channel 7 is formed behind the groove bottom of the groove 6 and runs in a closed hollow chamber. Further hollow chambers 8, which are each provided adjacent to the grooves 4, are formed adjacent to the drainage channel 7.

Um an dem Übergang zwischen dem oberen Pfosten 2 und dem unteren Pfosten 2' etwaiges Wasser aus dem Entwässerungskanal 7 abzuleiten, ist ein Dichtungsstück 10 vorgesehen. An dem Dichtungsstück 10 ist ein plattenförmiges Dichtungselement 11 angeformt, das zumindest im Bereich des Entwässerungskanals 7 für eine Abdichtung sorgt. Das plattenförmige Dichtungselement 11 besitzt eine Dicke zwischen 0,1 und 4 mm, insbesondere 1 mm bis 3 mm, und ist aus einem harten oder elastischen, bevorzugt dichtenden Material hergestellt, beispielsweise EPDM, Kunststoff oder Gummi. Das Dichtungselement 11 ist dabei nicht nur innerhalb des Hohlraumes des Entwässerungskanals 7 angeordnet, sondern zwischen den Wänden der Pfosten 2 und 2', so dass das Dichtungselement 11 klemmend zwischen dem oberen Pfosten 2 und dem unteren Pfosten 2' fixiert wird. Das Dichtungselement 11 ist dabei in vertikaler Sicht T-förmig ausgebildet, so dass die Dichtleisten 5 durchgängig zwischen dem oberen und dem unteren Pfosten 2 bzw. 2' verlaufen können.In order to discharge any water from the drainage channel 7 at the transition between the upper post 2 and the lower post 2 ', a sealing piece 10 is provided. A plate-shaped sealing element 11 is formed on the sealing piece 10 and ensures a seal at least in the area of the drainage channel 7. The plate-shaped sealing element 11 has a thickness between 0.1 and 4 mm, in particular 1 mm to 3 mm, and is made of a hard or elastic, preferably sealing material, for example EPDM, plastic or rubber. The sealing element 11 is not only arranged within the cavity of the drainage channel 7, but between the walls of the posts 2 and 2 ', so that the sealing element 11 is clamped between the upper post 2 and the lower post 2'. The sealing element 11 is T-shaped in the vertical view, so that the sealing strips 5 can run continuously between the upper and lower posts 2 and 2 '.

Das Dichtstück 10 und/oder das Dichtelement 11 können auch aus hartem Material, beispielsweise einer Folie hergestellt sein, wobei die Abdichtung wahlweise durch die Dichtmasse oder aber durch das Dichtelement 11 erfolgen. Es ist auch möglich, zwei oder mehr unterschiedliche Materialien für das Dichtstück 10 und/oder das Dichtelement 11 einzusetzen. Beispielsweise könnte ein formstabiler Kern mit einer weichen oder elastischen Umhüllung oder partiellen Abdeckung versehen sein, um dann an dem Pfosten 2 montiert zu werden.The sealing piece 10 and / or the sealing element 11 can also be made of a hard material, for example a film, the sealing either being effected by the sealing compound or by the sealing element 11. It is also possible to use two or more different materials for the sealing piece 10 and / or the sealing element 11. For example, a dimensionally stable core could be provided with a soft or elastic covering or partial covering in order to then be mounted on the post 2.

Das Dichtungsstück 10 weist ferner eine obere Leiste 12 und in einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung eine optional vorgesehene untere Leiste 13 auf. Die untere Leiste 13 ist in die Nut 6 an dem unteren Pfosten 2' eingesteckt, während die obere Leiste 12 in die Nut 6 des oberen Pfostens 2 eingesteckt ist. An der oberen Leiste 12 ist an der Oberseite eine Ablaufschräge 16 ausgebildet, die sich von dem Boden der Nut 6 abfallend zu einer Außenseite erstreckt.The sealing piece 10 also has an upper bar 12 and, in a preferred embodiment, an optionally provided lower bar 13. The lower bar 13 is inserted into the groove 6 on the lower post 2 ′, while the upper bar 12 is inserted into the groove 6 of the upper post 2. A drainage slope 16 is formed on the upper side of the upper strip 12 and extends downwardly from the bottom of the groove 6 to an outside.

Im Bereich der oberen Leiste 12 ist ferner ein Einspritzkanal 14 ausgebildet, der über einen rohrförmigen Abschnitt 15 in den Entwässerungskanal 7 des oberen Pfostens 2 geführt ist.In the area of the upper bar 12, an injection channel 14 is also formed, which is guided into the drainage channel 7 of the upper post 2 via a tubular section 15.

Für die Montage wird das Dichtungsstück 10 zwischen dem unteren Pfosten 2' und dem oberen Pfosten 2 montiert, wobei der rohrförmige Abschnitt 15 in eine Öffnung 20 an dem oberen Pfosten 2 eingesteckt wird. Die Öffnung 20 durchgreift dabei den Boden der Nut 6 und mündet in dem Entwässerungskanal 7.For the assembly, the sealing piece 10 is mounted between the lower post 2 ′ and the upper post 2, the tubular section 15 being inserted into an opening 20 on the upper post 2. The opening 20 extends through the bottom of the groove 6 and opens into the drainage channel 7.

Eine weitere Öffnung 21 an dem oberen Pfosten 2 ist oberhalb der Öffnung 20 angeordnet und durchgreift ebenfalls den Boden der Nut 6 und mündet im Entwässerungskanal 7.Another opening 21 on the upper post 2 is arranged above the opening 20 and likewise extends through the bottom of the groove 6 and opens into the drainage channel 7.

Das Dichtungsstück 10 wird an dem oberen Pfosten 2 so fixiert, dass der rohrförmige Abschnitt 15 in die untere Öffnung 20 eingesteckt wird, so dass nun Dichtmasse über den Einspritzkanal 14 in den Entwässerungskanal 7 des oberen Pfostens 2 eingespritzt werden kann. Durch das Dichtungselement 11 wird verhindert, dass die Dichtmasse in den Entwässerungskanal 7 an dem unteren Pfosten 2' gelangen kann. Vielmehr wird die Dichtmasse beim Injizieren nach oben gedrückt, bis diese an der Unterkante der Öffnung 21 sichtbar wird, so dass der Injiziervorgang beendet wird.The sealing piece 10 is fixed to the upper post 2 in such a way that the tubular section 15 is inserted into the lower opening 20 so that sealing compound can now be injected via the injection channel 14 into the drainage channel 7 of the upper post 2. The sealing element 11 prevents the sealing compound from being able to get into the drainage channel 7 on the lower post 2 '. Rather, the sealing compound is pressed upward during the injection process until it becomes visible at the lower edge of the opening 21, so that the injection process is ended.

Sollte sich in dem Entwässerungskanal 7 des oberen Pfostens 2 Wasser ansammeln, wird dieses nach unten bis zu der Öffnung 21 geleitet und trifft dort auf die Dichtmasse, die den Entwässerungskanal 7 verschließt. Dadurch wird das Wasser zu der Öffnung 21 geleitet und trifft dort auf die Ablaufschräge 16 an der Leiste 12, die in die Nut 6 eingreift und zumindest bereichsweise an dem Nutboden anliegt. Das Wasser kann nun in dem Zwischenraum zwischen benachbarten Füllungselementen weiter nach unten gelangen oder durch Führungseinrichtungen weiter nach außen abgeführt werden.If water collects in the drainage channel 7 of the upper post 2, it is directed down to the opening 21 and there meets the sealing compound which closes the drainage channel 7. As a result, the water is conducted to the opening 21 and there meets the drainage slope 16 on the strip 12, which engages in the groove 6 and rests at least in some areas on the groove bottom. The water can now get further down in the space between adjacent filling elements or be discharged further to the outside by means of guide devices.

In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist das Dichtungselement 11 an einem Dichtungsstück 10 angeformt. Es ist natürlich auch möglich, das Dichtungselement 11 als Folie, Platte oder anderes Element zwischen den oberen Pfosten 2 und den unteren Pfosten 2' im Bereich des Entwässerungskanals 7 anzuordnen. Das Dichtungselement 11 kann beispielsweise als Formteil ausgebildet sein, dass klemmend in den Entwässerungskanal 7 eingefügt wird und dann wahlweise unmittelbar zur Ableitung des Wassers oder als Begrenzungselement beim Einfüllen von Dichtmasse dient. Es ist daher nicht erforderliche, dass das Dichtelement exakt in der Trennungsebene zwischen dem oberen Pfosten 2 und dem unteren Pfosten 2' angeordnet wird.In the exemplary embodiment shown, the sealing element 11 is molded onto a sealing piece 10. It is of course also possible to arrange the sealing element 11 as a film, plate or other element between the upper post 2 and the lower post 2 ′ in the area of the drainage channel 7. The sealing element 11 can, for example, be designed as a molded part that is inserted into the drainage channel 7 in a clamping manner and then serves either directly to drain the water or as a limiting element when filling in sealing compound. It is therefore not necessary for the sealing element to be arranged exactly in the plane of separation between the upper post 2 and the lower post 2 '.

Zusätzlich kann das Injizieren von Dichtmasse nicht nur über den Einspritzkanal 14 erfolgen, sondern auch durch eine Öffnung 20 an dem Boden der Nut 6 des Pfostens 2, wobei das Werkzeug zum Injizieren unmittelbar an die Öffnung 20 angelegt wird.In addition, the injection of sealing compound can take place not only via the injection channel 14, but also through an opening 20 at the bottom of the groove 6 of the post 2, the injection tool being placed directly on the opening 20.

Falls auf ein Injizieren von Dichtmasse verzichtet werden soll, kann auch unmittelbar oberhalb des Dichtungselementes 11 eine Öffnung zu dem Entwässerungskanal 7 hergestellt werden, so dass das durch den Entwässerungskanal 7 herabströmende Wasser auf das Dichtelement 11 auftrifft und an einer benachbarten Öffnung nach außen abgeleitet werden kann.If you do not want to inject sealing compound, an opening to the drainage channel 7 can also be made directly above the sealing element 11 so that the water flowing down through the drainage channel 7 hits the sealing element 11 and can be drained to the outside at an adjacent opening .
