Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a corner connector for door or window hollow sections according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • corner joints When connecting mitred hollow sections for door and window frames, in particular hollow profiles made of weldable plastic, so-called corner joints are inserted into the two colliding hollow sections, which have an entering into the hollow sections shank and one of the miter plane of the two hollow profiles corresponding oblique welding surface.
  • corner connectors By welding the two corner connectors, the connection of the hollow profiles obtains the desired rigidity and stability.
  • the connection between the tension member and clamping wedge is destroyed by deformation or breakage. In this way it can be ensured that the bracing with a sufficient tensile force, but limited to a level that prevents damage to the parts of the corner connector.
  • the tensile force is transferred over the entire width of the wedge surface on the cover.
  • a uniform distortion in the hollow profile in this case requires a completely uniform cross-section of the same.
  • the free cross-section is somewhat irregular and e.g. on one side slightly lower than on the opposite side, a uniform distortion no longer takes place. Rather, the applied clamping force is higher on one side than on the other. Desirable, however, is a possible uniform clamping, in which the tensile force is transmitted as evenly as possible from the clamping wedge on the cover on the hollow section.
  • the document DE 200 13 894 U describes a corner connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the clamping wedge of the corner connector according to the invention is divided along its longitudinal direction into two parts, which are to be referred to below as runners.
  • Each of these runners has a wedge-shaped cross-section in the longitudinal direction, the cross-sections of the runners corresponding to one another.
  • these runners are relatively narrow and are parallel to each other at a distance next to each other. They are connected by connecting webs over the distance, with some play, so that the skids are parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction, ie in the pulling direction of the clamping wedge are displaced. This means that the connecting webs indeed ensure the cohesion of the runners, but must allow the displaceability of the runners against each other.
  • the tension member is positively connected to each of the runners in each case by compounds having predetermined breaking points.
  • a predetermined tension when a predetermined tension is exceeded, the connection should be released. Due to the displaceability of the runners against each other, however, an optionally occurring difference between the tensile stresses on the two skids can be compensated first. If, in fact, the tension on one of the runners is higher so that it can no longer be pulled further, the other runner, on which a lower tension force acts, can be pulled a little further, until finally a force balance takes place. If the tensile force is further increased, it spreads evenly on both runners until the above-described tearing of the tension member takes place at the predetermined breaking point. Both skids are then braced with a predetermined clamping force acting on the opposite sides of the cover.
  • the connecting webs are diamond-shaped and formed with opposite corners of the rhombus on the inner side walls of the runners, such that the connections of the Rautenecken allow with the respective runner a pivoting movement.
  • the joints on the corners of the corners thus act as a hinge, which allows the game described above in the longitudinal direction of the skids. If the skids are shifted against each other, the rhombus makes a slight turn.
  • the tension member is connected to the runners by a likewise diamond-shaped connecting element, which is connected to two opposite corners and one of the runners and with another corner to the tension member.
  • the corner joints of this rhombus are also so flexible that with a displacement of the skids against each other a slight rotation of the diamond can take place.
  • the diamond-shaped connecting element has a central opening.
  • the connecting element has the form of a diamond-shaped frame, the frame webs represent predetermined breaking points at the connections to the runners.
  • Fig. 1 and 2 show a corner connector 10 according to the invention with a shaft 12 and an oblique welding surface 14.
  • the shaft 12 has substantially the shape of a box profile for insertion into a not-shown hollow profile of a door or a window.
  • the shaft 12 On its upper side, the shaft 12 is open and has a box-shaped recess, the bottom of which forms a horizontal sliding surface, on which a clamping wedge 16 rests, as will be shown in more detail below.
  • On the Clamping wedge 16 is a cover 18, the top of the shaft 12 closes at the top.
  • the clamping wedge 16 is arranged on the bottom of the recess 12 of the shaft 12, that it tapers in the direction of the welding surface 14, ie the wedge ridge 20 is located on the side facing away from the welding surface 14.
  • the clamping wedge 16 thus widened in the insertion direction of the corner connector 10 in the hollow profile, and its upper Keilf kaue 22 is slightly inclined in the direction of the welding surface 14 from the wedge back 20 from.
  • the inclination of this upper wedge surface 22 corresponds to a slope of the bottom 24 of the cover 18, while the top 26 of the cover 18 is horizontal and parallel to the bottom 28 of the shaft 12.
  • the upper wedge surface 22 of the clamping wedge 16 and the bottom 24 of the cover 18 have a ratchet profile that allows the displacement in the above-described direction, but prevents slipping back of the clamping wedge 16 or a release of the tension of the cover 18 in the hollow profile. Once reached a clamping position can not be solved easily again.
  • a tension member 32 is formed, which is accessible through an opening 34 in the welding surface 14 and exposed there.
  • the tension member 32 is provided with an eyelet on which a tool (Not shown in detail) can act to transfer a tensile force on the clamping wedge 16, even if the corner connector 10 is already completely, that is pushed to the welding surface 14 in the hollow profile.
  • the clamping wedge 16 is namely along its longitudinal direction, which corresponds to the pulling direction of the clamping wedge 16 in the fitting in the shaft 12 mounting position, divided into two respective wedge-shaped parts, which will be referred to hereinafter as runners 36,38.
  • These skids 36,38 are parallel to each other with an intermediate distance 40.
  • the runners 36,38 have exactly the same wedge shape in the present embodiment, ie, they have the same wedge angle.
  • both skids are 36,38 in the position in Fig. 3 under the cover 18 such that their two upper sides in the stress-free state uniformly rest against the bottom 24 of the cover 10.
  • the runners 36,38 are connected by two connecting webs 42,44, which bridge the distance 40 between the runners 36,38.
  • a first connecting web 42 is located at the end of the clamping wedge 16, which faces away from the tension member 32, and a second connecting web 44 is located between the first connecting web 42 and the tension member 32 approximately in the longitudinal center of the clamping wedge 16.
  • Both tension members 42,44 are formed identically in the present embodiment and have the shape of a rhombus with a central opening, ie, substantially the shape of an approximately diamond-shaped frame. These diamonds of the connecting webs 42, 44 are with their opposite corners against the respective inner walls 46, 48 of the skids 36, 38 formed.
  • the joints at the corners of the lozenges effectively form hinges which allow a slight pivotal movement of the connecting web 42, 44 with respect to the runner 36, 38 formed thereon. In this way, it is possible that the interconnected runners 36,38 are shifted in the longitudinal direction against each other. During this displacement, the diamonds of the connecting webs 42, 44 make a slight turn.
  • This flexibility of the connecting webs 42,44 which allows a displacement of the runners 36,38 with play against each other, can be ensured by a suitably selected material from which the runners 36,38 are made in one piece around the connecting webs 42,44, so typically one correspondingly flexible plastic material.
  • the tension member 32 with the eyelet 50 is connected to the two skids 36,38 via a further diamond-shaped connecting element 52 which corresponds in shape approximately to the connecting webs 42,44.
  • Two opposite corners of the diamond-shaped connecting element 52 are connected to one of the skids 36,38, wherein a further, the clamping wedge 16 facing away from the corner is connected to the tension member 32 and formed on this.
  • the respective connections of the connecting element 52 with the skids 36,38 and the tension member 32 are as flexible as those of the connecting webs 42,44 with the runners 36,38, so that the connecting element 52, the above-described displacement of the runners 36,38 parallel to each other allows and during this shift can perform a slight pivoting movement.
  • the connecting element 52 has a central opening, so that it has approximately the shape of a diamond-shaped frame.
  • this split clamping wedge 16 is the following. Is in the in-position of the clamping wedge 16 below the cover 18, as in Fig. 3 shown, a pulling force via the eyelet 50 on the tension member 32 in the direction of the weld surface 14 exerted (direction A in Fig. 3 and 4 ), the clamping wedge 16 first slides away with two runners 36, 38 under the cover part 18 and raises it at the same time, as above already described. If the cover member 18 abuts with its upper side 26 against the upper wall of the hollow profile, not shown, the clamping wedge 16 is put under tension on further exertion of the tensile force on the tension member 32.
  • this clamping force does not act simultaneously on both runners 36, 38, but first one of the runners experiences a greater resistance than the other. For example, if this is the left skid 36 in FIG Fig. 4 , The further applied tensile force causes a further displacement of the other right runner 38 in the direction of the welding surface 14 until a compensation of the difference in tension on both runners 36,38 has taken place. This means that this compensation of the tension can take place by the game of runners 36,38 against each other. This is an advantage over conventional clamping wedges, which are rigid over their entire width and thus allow no tension compensation.
  • the tensile force is further increased, tearing of the connection between the tension member 32 and clamping wedge 16 on the connecting element 52 takes place, namely at predetermined breaking points, which are formed by the frame webs of the diamond-shaped connecting element 52 between the respective runners 36, 38 and the tension member 32. Tearing these webs, the tensile force is limited to both runners 36,38, and the runners 36,38 remain in their cocked position.
  • the diamond-shaped connecting element 152 is enlarged to connect the tension member 32 with the runners 36,38.
  • the width of the connecting element 52 in this case is greater than the distance 40 between the skids 36,38. Therefore, the connecting element 152 is fitted in a diamond-shaped recess 154 between the runners 36, 38, wherein the opposite corners of the connecting element 152 are integrally formed on the runners 36, 38 at the points of the maximum width of the recess 154.
  • the size of the recess 154 is dimensioned such that the connecting element inserted therein 52 can perform a slight rotation within the recess 154 in a parallel displacement of the runners 36,38 against each other. Between the outer sides of the diamond-shaped connecting element 152 and the walls delimiting the recess 154 thus remains a slight gap which allows this pivoting movement.
