Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device or mounting component for fixing a building structure such as a window or a door element in an opening bounded by a support surface.
  • a spacer element which can be attached to the support surface, such as a profiled rail and a separate guide part or insert with a sleeve-shaped shaft which can be introduced into a passage of the structural body.
  • the shaft has an opening which serves to guide a fastening element such as a screw, which allows to produce a frictional connection between the spacer element and the structure.
  • the present invention further relates to a method for fixing a structure with the device according to the invention.
  • a fastener is first performed for this purpose by aligned holes in the structure and a support member to produce a frictional connection between the structure and the support element. Subsequently, the support member relative to the building opening on a support surface which defines the opening fixed. It proves to be a disadvantage that the fixation of the structure relative to the support element by means of the fastening element a high precision with regard to the aligned arrangement of the holes in the structure and the support element requires.
  • Such a device for fixing a structure is for example from the DE 20 2006 014 335 U1 known.
  • the task of simplifying the attachment of a structure with respect to an opening delimited by a bearing surface was therefore as from DE 10 2013 004 044 A1 described by a device for fixing a structure with respect to an opening bounded by a support surface, with a mountable on the support surface spacer element and a headed fastener, wherein the spacer element has a guide member which during a pre-assembly in a passage of the building is insertable.
  • the guide member has in a longitudinal axis on a through hole and the fastener is dimensioned so that the fastener extends after mounting the device in the guide member in the through hole and allows a frictional connection between the spacer element and the building.
  • spacer element and guide part are designed in one piece and realized as a plastic injection molded part. This allows a simple production and also an optimization of the heat transfer between building and building opening.
  • this embodiment has according to DE 10 2013 004 044 A1 also disadvantages.
  • the installation position of building structures such as windows, doors etc. is usually individual depending on the design, insulation thickness and architectural specifications. Therefore, in one-piece assembly components a correspondingly large variety of parts must be kept to cover the needs of the market. This is reflected, especially in injection molding, in high tooling costs.
  • the known assembly parts made of plastic reach their load limit, especially for structures mounted far in front of the supporting building elements.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device according to DE 10 2013 004 044 A1 to improve, especially in terms of handling and use.
  • the device according to the invention builds on the generic state of the art in that the mounting part is constructed at least two pieces of guide member and spacer element. They can thus be designed, optimized and kept separately.
  • a spacer selected for the individual construction situation is selected and equipped with a guide part, that is to say detachably or non-detachably connected.
  • the connection can be made by clamping, plugging, gluing, (on or on) clipping, friction welding, screwing or by mechanical fasteners such as a bayonet lock or similar.
  • the spacer serves primarily to be able to make the distance between the building and the supporting structure of the building envelope variable. For this purpose, it must derive the loads that act on the structure in the supporting structure and provide safe Ableitis for these forces.
  • the burdens include, among other things, the dead weight of the structure, wind pressure and suction, as well as loads caused by operating the structure (such as opening, closing and tilting windows / doors).
  • the spacer element can be designed as a profile rail with a C, U, double T or I or approximately W-shaped cross section.
  • the spacer element can also be a flat iron, so a band-shaped spacer element made of solid material with rectangular cross section be possible.
  • Suitable materials include metals such as steel, aluminum (extruded profiles), plastics, fiber reinforced plastics or composites, e.g. plastic-coated metal parts.
  • Profile rails can be produced favorably by cold forming or forming rolls. Depending on the static design, a specialist will choose a suitable profile / material combination.
  • Such a spacer element will preferably have openings such as holes, slots or holes with which the spacer can be anchored to a support surface of an opening in a building envelope. These openings may have different diameters and shapes, and allow the passage of fasteners (screws, nails, dowels, clips) into the structural structure of the building envelope.
  • the spacer element also preferably has a further passage opening into which the fastening element engages during assembly of the structure.
  • this engagement will be done non-positively, so that the guide member in the connection of the structure and spacer fuse technology plays a lesser role than the fastener itself.
  • the opening may be a mere bore into which a fastener selected as a screw when mounting the structure cuts a thread.
  • the opening could also itself have a molded / pressed thread and thus facilitate assembly.
  • parts of the guide element engage in the opening and act as dowels in the spacer element when the fastener is driven.
  • the fastening element will thus preferably be a screw, a self-tapping, self-tapping screw and / or a self-tapping screw in the applications described.
  • the spacer is, as described above, assembled with a guide member in a pre-assembly step.
  • the guide member consists essentially of a shaft-shaped sleeve with a foot part, which enters into the connection with the spacer.
  • the sleeve has an opening, preferably a passage opening or passage opening extending axially in the longitudinal direction of the sleeve.
  • the cross section of this opening is preferably circular, but may also be performed polygonal.
  • the diameter is chosen so that a fastener, which must ensure the permanent connection of the structure and spacer element, is aligned when inserting in the guide part and thus an alignment of the various holes in the building is achieved.
  • the geometric orientation of (passage) opening of the spacer element and the longitudinal axis of the opening in the guide part are coordinated so that the fastener when passing through the opening of the spacer element at least partially can cut a thread or achieved the fasteners described above.
  • the connectivity of spacer element and guide member can be made detachable or non-detachable, which is reflected in the nature of the connecting elements.
  • retaining elements are provided on the guide part on its foot part, which correspond with corresponding technical features of the spacer element such that a detachable or non-detachable connection can be achieved.
  • the retaining elements are designed as noses, clamps, bars, brackets, pins or tabs.
  • projections, retaining lugs or openings are provided which interact with said retaining elements.
  • the connection can be made by clamping, gluing, clipping, locking (eg by means of bayonet lock), friction welding or a combination thereof (eg clamping and gluing, clamping plus locking).
  • Non-releasable compounds can, for example, in a known manner by self-locking or self-locking Rotary fasteners are achieved with snap locking pins.
  • self-locking or self-locking Rotary fasteners are achieved with snap locking pins.
  • connecting elements can also be provided on the spacer element and vice versa.
  • the guide part has two or more formations with locking hooks, which engage in holes or holes of the spacer element and engage there.
  • the guide member may preferably be made of metal or plastic, molded plastic, metal diecast or fiber-reinforced plastic or composite materials.
  • the described embodiments of fastening elements in spacer elements and guide parts allow an optimized assignment to the application.
  • Depending on the design of the structure may require a longer or shorter version of the sleeve-like shaft.
  • the mounting position in the building envelope may require different lengths of the rail (spacer).
  • two-piece design of the mounting part a combinability is achieved as needed.
  • the number of catalog parts can be reduced, which simplifies warehousing and distribution.
  • An inventive method for mounting the mounting part described above is characterized by substantially four steps.
  • a first step the intended mounting part of a spacer element and guide member is assembled.
  • This connection can be detachable or fixed again.
  • the types of connection may preferably include: gluing, clamping, locking, friction welding or clipping, and possibly also combinations thereof.
  • this joining can take place immediately before step 2 on the construction site, but could also take place ahead of time.
  • the guide part more precisely, the sleeve-shaped shaft thereof, introduced into a passage of the building.
  • This passage is preferably a bore in the building, which is made so large that the insertion of the shaft is just made possible, but little leeway exists.
  • step 1 and 2 the spacer is then fastened with a fixing element (screw, nail, anchor, ...) to the support surface of the opening.
  • a fixing element screw, nail, anchor, ...) to the support surface of the opening.
  • This attachment can, for example, through a hole or slot through the spacer element take place and preferably takes place so that an adjustment or fine adjustment of the installation position of the building later still possible.
  • the spacer element is anchored at a safety distance from the edge of the support surface with at least one fixing element.
  • the fastener is then introduced into the guide member and advanced so far that it passes through the axial shaft or the opening therein reaches the connection area with the spacer element and there, as described above, lockingly engages in the spacer element.
  • the fastener cuts a thread in a designated opening in the spacer element.
  • the head of the fastener strikes when screwing to the building, when the mounting member is mounted, so that the head of the adjoining shaft portion of the fastener is fixed along the longitudinal axis in the guide member.
  • the guide member achieves two functions during assembly - it allows the spacer on the one hand on / in the building loose, but adjustable to install and in a further step, it passes the fastener through the building in the spacer element.
