Description

1. Domaine de l'invention1. Field of the invention

Le domaine de l'invention est celui du bâtiment, et, plus précisément, des menuiseries destinées à équiper les baies d'un bâtiment.The field of the invention is that of the building, and, more specifically, joinery intended to equip the bays of a building.

Plus précisément, l'invention concerne les portes, fenêtres et portes-fenêtres à ouverture à la française.More specifically, the invention relates to doors, windows and French doors to French opening.

Une telle menuiserie comprend un dormant, ou partie fixe solidarisée au bâtiment, et un ou plusieurs ouvrants. La plupart des menuiseries fabriquées de façon industrielle sont réalisées en PVC, en bois ou en aluminium ou, comme proposé par le déposant de la présente demande de brevet sous la marque M3D (marque déposée) en une combinaison de ces matériaux.Such carpentry includes a frame, or fixed part secured to the building, and one or more openings. Most of the industrially manufactured joinery is made of PVC, wood or aluminum or, as proposed by the applicant of the present patent application under the trademark M3D (registered trademark) in a combination of these materials.

2. Art antérieur2. Prior Art

On peut distinguer deux grands types d'ouvrants, illustrés par les vues en coupe des figures 1A et 1B :

  • les ouvrants visibles à parclose (figure 1A) ;
  • les ouvrants cachés extérieurs (figure 1B).
We can distinguish two main types of opening, illustrated by the sectional views of Figures 1A and 1B :
  • the visible openings at beading ( Figure 1A );
  • external hidden openings ( Figure 1B ).

Comme on le voit sur la figure 1A, l'ouvrant 11 s'étend, côté orienté vers l'extérieur, au-dessus du dormant 12, et est donc visible depuis l'extérieur. Une parclose intérieure 13 est rapportée côté intérieur de l'ouvrant pour recouvrir le bord du vitrage 14.As we see on the Figure 1A , the opening 11 extends, outwardly facing side, above the frame 12, and is therefore visible from the outside. An inner glazing bead 13 is attached inside the opening to cover the edge of the glazing 14.

Dans le cas d'un ouvrant caché, comme illustré sur la figure 1B, l'ouvrant 15 s'étend uniquement du côté intérieur, et porte une feuillure 16 recevant le vitrage 17. Une parclose 18 s'étend sur le bord du vitrage, du côté extérieur, et reste cachée, ou essentiellement cachée par le dormant 19. En d'autres termes, la mise en oeuvre d'ouvrants cachés permet de rendre invisible, ou quasi invisible, le cadre ouvrant, vu de l'extérieur, en augmentant le cadre dormant. Le vitrage parclosé par l'extérieur de l'ouvrant se trouve en avant de la quincaillerie.In the case of a hidden opening, as shown on the Figure 1B , the opening 15 extends only on the inside, and carries a rabbet 16 receiving the glazing 17. A glazing bead 18 extends on the edge of the glazing, on the outside, and remains hidden, or essentially hidden by the frame 19 In other words, the implementation of hidden openings makes it possible to make invisible, or almost invisible, the opening frame, seen from the outside, by increasing the sleeping frame. The glazing bored by the outside of the opening is in front of the hardware store.

Selon l'art antérieur, ce cadre ouvrant est réalisé par assemblage de deux montants et de deux traverses en coupe d'onglets et par l'intermédiaire de quatre équerres. La mise en oeuvre de telles équerres est notamment décrite dans le document de brevet GB477665 , qui indique que la liaison des traverses par soudure serait complexe, coûteuse et nécessiterait une finition spécifique. De ce fait, depuis au moins 80 ans, l'homme du métier est dissuadé de mettre en oeuvre un assemblage par soudure, pour des applications industrielles, et utilise systématiquement des équerres.According to the prior art, this opening frame is made by assembling two uprights and two cross-members in section of tabs and by means of four brackets. The implementation of such brackets is described in particular in the patent document GB477665 , which indicates that the connection of welded ties would be complex, expensive and require a specific finish. Therefore, for at least 80 years, the skilled person is dissuaded to implement a welded joint for industrial applications, and always uses brackets.

Cette approche permet d'obtenir des ouvrants cachés présentant certains avantages, par rapport aux ouvrants à parclose visible :

  • la bicoloration de la menuiserie, c'est-à-dire l'application d'une couleur extérieure différente de la couleur intérieure, est facilitée, du fait qu'il n'est pas nécessaire de gérer la couleur extérieure de l'ouvrant pour la rendre homogène avec celle du dormant ;
  • amélioration des performances thermiques, notamment pour les menuiseries en aluminium ;
  • augmentation du clair de jour, en optimisant la finesse des profilés du cadre ouvrant ;
  • possibilité d'utilisation d'une quincaillerie, plus économique, du type de celle utilisée pour les menuiseries PVC ;
  • parclose cachée en position fermée.
This approach makes it possible to obtain hidden openings with certain advantages, compared to opening with visible glazing:
  • the bicolor carpentry, that is to say the application of an external color different from the interior color, is facilitated, because it is not necessary to manage the external color of the opening for make it homogeneous with that of the frame;
  • improvement of thermal performance, particularly for aluminum joinery;
  • increased daylight, by optimizing the fineness of the opening frame profiles;
  • possibility of using a hardware, more economical, of the type used for PVC joinery;
  • hidden bead in closed position.

Ainsi, on sait que les menuiseries en aluminium à ouvrants cachés sont plus performantes et plus économiques que les menuiseries en aluminium à parclosage visible.Thus, we know that the aluminum windows with hidden openings are more efficient and more economical than the aluminum windows with visible hatching.

Un exemple de menuiserie de ce type est décrit dans le document de brevet DE8505873 .An example of carpentry of this type is described in the patent document DE8505873 .

Ces menuiseries présentent cependant des inconvénients, du fait de leur mode d'assemblage. En effet, comme illustré sur la figure 2, la fabrication du cadre laisse apparaître un trait de coupe 21 entre le montant 22 et la traverse 23. Ce trait est plus ou moins esthétique, suivant le soin apporté à la fabrication (précision de la coupe, éclats de peinture ou copeaux lors de la coupe, des affleurements des plans, ....). En outre, ce trait 21 a tendance à s'amplifier dans le temps, suite à la fatigue du produit, et les silicones utilisés pour masquer les imperfections peuvent jaunir dans le temps. De plus, ces coupes sont mal protégées contre la corrosion éventuelle.These joineries have disadvantages, however, because of their method of assembly. Indeed, as illustrated on the figure 2 , the manufacture of the frame reveals a cut line 21 between the upright 22 and the crossbar 23. This feature is more or less aesthetic, depending on the care taken in manufacturing (precision of the cut, splinters of paint or chips during cutting, outcropping planes, ....). In addition, this trait 21 tends to amplify over time, following the fatigue of the product, and silicones used to hide imperfections can turn yellow over time. In addition, these cuts are poorly protected against possible corrosion.

L'invention a notamment pour objectif de pallier au moins certains de ces inconvénients.The object of the invention is in particular to overcome at least some of these disadvantages.

3. présentation de l'invention3. presentation of the invention

Ceci est atteint à l'aide d'une menuiserie à ouvrant caché comprenant un cadre ouvrant équipé d'un vitrage. Selon l'invention, les montants et traverses dudit cadre ouvrant sont en acier et assemblés uniquement par soudage, sans pièce de liaison supplémentaire, de façon à former un cadre monobloc sans trait de coupe, après application d'une finition par peinture, et la face extérieure dudit cadre ouvrant se termine par une surface d'appui, parallèle audit vitrage, la mise en place dudit vitrage sur ladite surface d'appui étant effectuée par ladite face extérieure.This is achieved with the aid of a concealed opening joinery comprising an opening frame equipped with a glazing unit. According to the invention, the amounts and crosspieces of said opening frame are made of steel and assembled only by welding, without additional connecting piece, so as to form a single-piece frame without cutting line, after application of a paint finish, and the outer face of said opening frame ends with a bearing surface, parallel to said glazing, the establishment of said glazing on said bearing surface being performed by said outer face.

Ainsi, on réalise un ouvrant caché de façon particulièrement simple et efficace. Cette simplicité n'était cependant évidente, au vu des approches connues plus complexes, dans lesquelles l'homme du métier considérait nécessaire la mise en oeuvre d'équerres ou de moyens de solidarisation similaires, et procure un avantage important, en supprimant tous les traits de coupe et leurs défauts.Thus, it achieves a hidden opening in a particularly simple and effective manner. This simplicity was however obvious, in view of the more complex known approaches, in which the skilled person considered necessary the implementation of brackets or similar fastening means, and provides an important advantage, removing all the features cutting and their defects.

Le montage du vitrage est également simplifié, et l'ouvrant obtenu peut être léger, fin et esthétique. On réalise en effet une solidarisation directe du vitrage sur le cadre, sans parclosage intérieur et sans la feuillure habituelle selon l'art antérieur.The mounting of the glazing is also simplified, and the opening obtained can be light, thin and aesthetic. In fact, a direct fastening of the glazing unit to the frame is achieved, without interior parclosing and without the usual rabbet according to the prior art.

L'usage, inhabituel dans le domaine de la fabrication industrielle de menuiseries, permet d'obtenir de bonnes performances. La rigidité de l'acier permet de réaliser un cadre plus fin qu'un cadre classique et beaucoup moins conducteur thermique.The use, unusual in the field of industrial manufacture of joinery, makes it possible to obtain good performances. The rigidity of steel allows for a thinner frame than a classic frame and much less thermal conductor.

L'acier est en effet très peu utilisé, en menuiserie industrielle, et l'homme du métier lui préfère généralement l'aluminium, pour des questions de poids et de facilité d'industrialisation. L'approche de l'invention permet cependant d'obtenir un poids et une efficacité thermique au moins similaires aux solutions actuelles, tout en obtenant une rigidité et/ou une finesse améliorées.Steel is indeed very little used, in carpentry industry, and the skilled person usually prefers aluminum, for issues of weight and ease of industrialization. The approach of the invention, however, provides a weight and thermal efficiency at least similar to current solutions, while obtaining an improved rigidity and / or fineness.

De façon préférentielle, le dormant de la menuiserie est en aluminium.Preferably, the frame of the carpentry is aluminum.

Ce dormant peut être fabriqué selon les approches connues, et présente l'avantage d'être plus résistant à la corrosion que l'acier. Ainsi, on réalise une menuiserie métallique composée d'un ouvrant caché en acier et d'un dormant en aluminium. Il permet de combiner les avantages des deux matériaux au meilleur coût.This frame can be manufactured according to known approaches, and has the advantage of being more resistant to corrosion than steel. Thus, it achieves a metal carpentry composed of a concealed steel opening and an aluminum frame. It combines the advantages of both materials at the best cost.

L'ouvrant d'une fenêtre en acier par rapport à une fenêtre en aluminium a notamment pour avantages la finesse, la robustesse, la résistance au feu et la résistance à l'effraction.The opening of a steel window with respect to an aluminum window has particular advantages finesse, strength, fire resistance and burglar resistance.

Le dormant d'une fenêtre en aluminium par rapport à un dormant d'une fenêtre en acier a notamment pour avantages d'offrir plus de solutions de pose adaptées au bâti, d'être plus résistant en terme de corrosion, de permettre d'obtenir une meilleure performance thermique grâce à l'emploi de profilés à rupture de pont thermique, et d'être plus économique.The advantage of the frame of an aluminum window with respect to a frame of a steel window is that it offers more laying solutions adapted to the frame, to be more resistant in terms of corrosion, to make it possible to obtain better thermal performance thanks to the use of thermal break profiles, and to be more economical.

La combinaison nouvelle d'un ouvrant en acier et d'un dormant en aluminium s'avère donc particulièrement efficace.The new combination of a steel opening and an aluminum frame is therefore particularly effective.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, ledit vitrage est assemblé de façon étanche audit cadre ouvrant.According to a particular embodiment, said glazing is sealingly assembled to said opening frame.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, un joint d'étanchéité est monté entre ledit cadre ouvrant et ledit vitrage, par exemple sous la forme d'un adhésif double face, entre le vitrage et le cadre.According to a particular embodiment, a seal is mounted between said opening frame and said glazing, for example in the form of a double-sided adhesive, between the glazing and the frame.

Des moyens de reprise de charge dudit vitrage, assurée par au moins une cale reprise sur ledit cadre ouvrant, peuvent être prévus.Load recovery means of said glazing provided by at least one shim taken from said opening frame can be provided.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, lesdits moyens de reprise de charge peuvent comprendre, sur chacun de deux angles opposés dudit cadre ouvrant, deux pattes de support de cale solidarisées l'une à l'autre de façon à s'étendre respectivement le long de deux bords perpendiculaires dudit vitrage.According to a particular embodiment, said load taking means may comprise, on each of two opposite angles of said opening frame, two wedge support tabs secured to each other so as to extend respectively along two perpendicular edges of said glazing.

Cette approche, les deux pattes formant une équerre, permet d'augmenter la reprise de charge admissible sans augmenter son épaisseur et son encombrement.This approach, the two legs forming a square, increases the permissible load recovery without increasing its thickness and size.

De façon avantageuse, selon ce mode de réalisation, lesdites pattes peuvent être amovibles.Advantageously, according to this embodiment, said tabs can be removable.

Elles peuvent ainsi être mis en place après la pose du vitrage.They can be put in place after glazing.

Avantageusement, selon ce mode de réalisation, lesdites pattes présentent au moins une portion d'assemblage avec ledit cadre ouvrant, coopérant avec au moins une lumière formée sur celui-ci.Advantageously, according to this embodiment, said tabs have at least one assembly portion with said opening frame cooperating with at least one light formed thereon.

Selon une mise en oeuvre particulière, lesdites pattes peuvent être solidarisées l'une à l'autre à l'aide d'une vis.According to a particular embodiment, said tabs can be secured to one another by means of a screw.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, ledit ouvrant caché porte un capot maintenant en place ledit vitrage.According to a particular embodiment, said hidden opening door has a cover now in place said glazing.

L'invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication d'une telle menuiserie à ouvrant caché, comprenant les étapes suivantes :

  • obtention de montants et traverses en acier ;
  • assemblage desdits montants et traverses en acier uniquement par soudage, sans pièce de liaison supplémentaire, de façon à former un cadre monobloc se terminant, vers l'extérieur, par une surface d'appui plane et parallèle audit vitrage ;
  • peinture dudit cadre monobloc, de façon à obtenir un cadre peint sans trait de coupe ;
  • la mise en place dudit vitrage sur ladite surface d'appui étant effectuée par ladite face extérieure.
The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing such a concealed opening joinery, comprising the following steps:
  • obtaining steel posts and sleepers;
  • assembly of said uprights and steel crosspieces solely by welding, without additional connecting piece, so as to form a monobloc frame ending, outwardly, by a flat bearing surface and parallel to said glazing;
  • painting said monobloc frame, so as to obtain a painted frame without cutting line;
  • placing said glazing on said bearing surface being effected by said outer face.

On comprend que la fabrication du cadre, prêt à recevoir le vitrage, et le montage de ce dernier sont particulièrement simples.It is understood that the manufacture of the frame, ready to receive the glazing, and the mounting of the latter are particularly simple.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, le procédé de fabrication comprend également une étape de mise en place sur ledit cadre ouvrant d'au moins une cale de reprise de charge dudit vitrage.According to a particular embodiment, the manufacturing method also comprises a step of setting up on said opening frame of at least one load-bearing wedge of said glazing.

5. description d'un mode de réalisation5. description of an embodiment

L'invention propose donc une nouvelle approche des menuiseries à ouvrants cachés, particulièrement simple et efficace.The invention therefore proposes a new approach to concealed door frames, particularly simple and effective.

Comme illustré schématiquement sur les figures 3A et 3B illustrent schématiquement un cadre selon l'invention, respectivement vu depuis l'extérieur et depuis l'intérieur d'un bâtiment, l'ouvrant selon l'invention présente un cadre 31, présentant deux montants 32 et 33 et deux traverses 34 et 35, assemblés par soudage. Aucune équerre, ni autre pièce de liaison, n'est rapportée dans les angles du cadre.As illustrated schematically on Figures 3A and 3B schematically illustrate a frame according to the invention, respectively seen from the outside and from the inside of a building, the opening according to the invention has a frame 31, having two uprights 32 and 33 and two crosspieces 34 and 35, assembled by welding. No square or other connecting piece is reported in the corners of the frame.

Ce cadre est préférentiellement réalisé en acier, ce qui permet d'obtenir un cadre rigide mais fin, et en conséquence aisé à cacher par le dormant.This frame is preferably made of steel, which allows to obtain a rigid but thin frame, and therefore easy to hide by the frame.

Les montants 32 et 33 et les traverses 34 et 35 sont obtenus, directement à partir de barres brutes que l'on assemble en cadre 31, puis que l'on peint, par exemple par thermolaquage. Ainsi, le cadre est constitué de quatre pièces uniques, sans élément de liaison, et ne présente aucun trait de coupe au niveau de l'assemblage entre les montants et les traverses. On améliore ainsi l'esthétique du cadre, tout en supprimant les risques de détérioration et de mauvaise étanchéité.The uprights 32 and 33 and the crosspieces 34 and 35 are obtained directly from raw bars that are assembled in a frame 31, and then painted by example by powder coating. Thus, the frame consists of four single pieces, without connecting element, and has no cutting line at the assembly between the uprights and crosspieces. This improves the aesthetics of the frame, while eliminating the risk of deterioration and poor sealing.

Par ailleurs, toujours dans le but de simplifier la fabrication, réduire le poids et offrir un meilleur aspect esthétique, le cadre présente, vu de l'extérieur (figure 3B), une surface plane verticale 311 (plus précisément, parallèle au vitrage qu'il va recevoir), ce vitrage étant directement ou indirectement (par l'intermédiaire d'une feuillure) rapporté sur cette surface d'appui, depuis le côté extérieur. En d'autres termes, l'ouvrant est réalisé sans parclosage intérieur.Moreover, always with the aim of simplifying the manufacture, reducing the weight and offering a better aesthetic aspect, the present frame, seen from the outside ( figure 3B ), a vertical planar surface 311 (more precisely, parallel to the glazing it will receive), this glazing being directly or indirectly (via a rabbet) attached to this bearing surface, from the outside. In other words, the opening is made without interior parclosing.

Les figures 4A et 4B sont deux vues en coupe d'un exemple de menuiserie mettant en oeuvre le cadre de la figure 3.The Figures 4A and 4B are two sectional views of an example of carpentry implementing the framework of the figure 3 .

Comme on peut le constater sur ces figures 4A et 4B, le cadre 31 présente, du côté orienté vers l'extérieur, une surface plane 311, parallèle au vitrage 42. Ce vitrage 42 est rapporté sur cette surface d'appui 311, depuis le côté extérieur, puis maintenu par un capot 44.As can be seen from these Figures 4A and 4B , the frame 31 has, on the side facing outwards, a flat surface 311, parallel to the glazing 42. This glazing 42 is attached to this bearing surface 311, from the outside, then held by a cover 44.

Selon l'invention, et toujours dans le but de simplification de la fabrication, il n'est pas prévu de feuillure pour la reprise de charge du vitrage. Celle-ci est uniquement assurée par des cales 48, placées sur des supports de calage 49 en acier, solidarisées au cadre 31 de façon mécanique et/ou par soudage (figure 4B). Ces supports de calage 49 sont placés, sur une largeur de l'ordre de 10 cm par exemple, en quelques emplacements prédéterminés sur le cadre 31. Les cales 48, par exemple en matière plastique, sont choisies parmi plusieurs cales disponibles, d'épaisseurs différentes, pour s'adapter aux caractéristiques du cadre 31 et/ou du vitrage 42 et corriger les jeux variables d'une menuiserie à l'autre.According to the invention, and always for the purpose of simplification of manufacture, there is no provision for rebate for the load recovery of the glazing. This is only ensured by shims 48, placed on steel support 49, secured to frame 31 mechanically and / or by welding ( Figure 4B ). These wedging supports 49 are placed, for a width of the order of 10 cm for example, in a few predetermined locations on the frame 31. The wedges 48, for example made of plastic, are chosen from several spacers available, thicknesses different, to adapt to the characteristics of the frame 31 and / or the glazing 42 and correct the variable games from one joinery to another.

Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, les supports de calage sont formés par des pattes telles qu'illustrées par la figure 7, assemblées deux à deux en équerre.According to an advantageous embodiment, the wedge supports are formed by tabs as illustrated by the figure 7 , assembled two by two at right angles.

L'étanchéité est notamment assurée par un joint 43, adhésif ou non, placé entre le vitrage 42 et le cadre 31.The sealing is in particular ensured by a seal 43, adhesive or not, placed between the glazing 42 and the frame 31.

Enfin, le capot 44 est rapporté, depuis l'extérieur, pour assurer le maintien du vitrage 42, ainsi que l'évacuation d'eau. Ce capot 44 est repris mécaniquement sur le cadre en acier 31, par exemple par accrochage. Il peut porter un joint 45, qui coopère avec le dormant 46, lorsque l'ouvrant est fermé, pour assurer l'étanchéité.Finally, the cover 44 is attached from the outside, to maintain the glazing 42, as well as the discharge of water. This cover 44 is taken up mechanically on the steel frame 31, for example by hooking. It can carry a seal 45, which cooperates with the frame 46, when the door is closed, to seal.

On constate ici que la partie extérieure du dormant 46 cache intégralement, ou pratiquement intégralement, l'ouvrant, et que l'on dispose donc d'un ouvrant caché, en acier particulièrement simple à fabriquer, rigide et peu épais, et présentant une finition parfaite et durable, sans trait de coupe.It can be seen here that the outer portion of the frame 46 completely or almost completely hides the opening, and that there is therefore a concealed opening made of steel which is particularly simple to manufacture, rigid and of little thickness, and having a finish. perfect and durable, without cutting line.

Ce dormant 46 est réalisé préférentiellement en aluminium.This frame 46 is preferably made of aluminum.

Cette approche permet notamment de combiner les avantages des deux matériaux au meilleur coût :

  • l'ouvrant d'une fenêtre en acier par rapport à une fenêtre en aluminium a en particulier pour avantages la finesse, la robustesse, la résistance au feu et la résistance à l'effraction ;
  • le dormant d'une fenêtre en aluminium par rapport à un dormant d'une fenêtre en acier a en particulier pour avantages d'offrir plus de solutions de pose adaptées au bâti, d'être plus résistant en terme de corrosion, de permettre d'obtenir une meilleure performance thermique, grâce à l'emploi de profilés à rupture de pont thermique, et d'être plus économique.
This approach makes it possible to combine the advantages of both materials at the best cost:
  • the opening of a steel window with respect to an aluminum window has, in particular, the advantages of fineness, robustness, fire resistance and resistance to burglary;
  • the frame of an aluminum window with respect to a frame of a steel window has in particular the advantages of offering more laying solutions adapted to the frame, to be more resistant in terms of corrosion, to allow to obtain a better thermal performance, thanks to the use of thermal break profiles, and to be more economical.

La figure 5 illustre un organigramme simplifié d'un procédé de fabrication d'une telle menuiserie ouvrant caché.The figure 5 illustrates a simplified flowchart of a method of manufacturing such a concealed opening joinery.

A partir de barres d'acier brutes, on obtient (51) des montants et traverses en acier, coupés aux dimensions souhaitées.From raw steel bars, (51) are obtained steel posts and sleepers, cut to the desired dimensions.

Ces montants et traverses sont assemblés par soudage, sans aucune pièce de liaison supplémentaire, telles que des équerres, de façon à former un cadre monobloc 31.These uprights and crosspieces are assembled by welding, without any additional connecting piece, such as brackets, so as to form a monobloc frame 31.

Ensuite, ce cadre reçoit un traitement de surface, en particulier de peinture 53, ce qui permet d'obtenir un cadre ouvrant sans trait de coupe.Then, this frame receives a surface treatment, in particular paint 53, which allows to obtain a frame without cutting line.

Ensuite, une ou plusieurs cales 48 peuvent être rapportées sur des supports de calage, ou supports de cale, 49 prévus sur la surface d'appui 311 du cadre (étape 54). Ces supports de calage sont solidarisés au cadre par exemple de façon mécanique et/ou par soudage.Then, one or more shims 48 may be attached to the wedging supports, or wedge supports, 49 provided on the bearing surface 311 of the frame (step 54). These wedging supports are secured to the frame for example mechanically and / or by welding.

Une approche particulière de réalisation et de montage de supports de cale est décrite ci-après, en relation avec les figures 6 à 11.A particular approach for producing and mounting wedge supports is described below, in connection with the Figures 6 to 11 .

On place également (étape 55) un joint d'étanchéité 43 sur la surface d'appui, par exemple un adhésif double face, puis l'on rapporte, depuis l'extérieur le vitrage 42 en contact avec la surface d'appui 311 (étape 56).A seal 43 is also placed (step 55) on the bearing surface, for example a double-sided adhesive, and then, from the outside, the glazing 42 is brought into contact with the bearing surface 311 (FIG. step 56).

Enfin, on rapporte un capot 44 (étape 57), toujours depuis l'extérieur. Ce capot est accroché sur le cadre en acier 31, via des moyens d'accrochage prévus à cet effet.Finally, there is reported a hood 44 (step 57), always from the outside. This cover is hooked on the steel frame 31, via attachment means provided for this purpose.

Un mode de réalisation particulier et efficace de supports de cale est maintenant décrit.A particular and effective embodiment of wedge carriers is now described.

Afin d'assurer la reprise de charge du vitrage et d'éviter que l'ouvrant ne s'affaisse, il est connu qu'il est nécessaire de réaliser un calage 61 et 62 de deux angles opposés du cadre 31, comme illustré sur la figure 6 : les cales nécessaires sont placées manuellement sur des supports de cale prévus à cet effet. Plusieurs épaisseurs de cale, par exemple entre 1 et 5 mm, sont disponibles, que le monteur sélectionne en fonction des espaces constatés.In order to ensure the load recovery of the glazing and to prevent the opening from sagging, it is known that it is necessary to make a wedging 61 and 62 of two opposite angles of the frame 31, as shown in FIG. figure 6 : the necessary shims are placed manually on wedges provided for this purpose. Several thicknesses of shim, for example between 1 and 5 mm, are available, which the editor selects according to the spaces observed.

Dans le mode de réalisation décrit précédemment, et comme illustré sur la figure 7, le jeu disponible entre le vitrage 71 et le nez d'ouvrant 72 est très faible, par exemple 3,9 mm. Pour fournir une reprise de charge efficace malgré ce faible jeu, l'invention propose, selon un mode de réalisation particulier, un système de reprise de charge amovible, pouvant être mis en place après la pose du vitrage et suffisamment rigide pour reprendre la charge nécessaire du vitrage.In the embodiment described above, and as illustrated on the figure 7 , the clearance available between the glazing 71 and the opening nose 72 is very small, for example 3.9 mm. To provide efficient load recovery despite this low clearance, the invention proposes, according to a particular embodiment, a removable load recovery system, which can be put in place after the glazing is installed and sufficiently rigid to take up the necessary load. glazing.

Cette approche repose sur deux pattes métalliques 81 et 82, comme illustré sur la figure 8, mises en place sur le cadre ouvrant 31 et solidarisées entre elles, par exemple à l'aide d'une vis 83. La construction particulière de ce support de cale en forme d'équerre permet d'augmenter la reprise de charge admissible sans augmenter son épaisseur et son encombrement.This approach is based on two metal tabs 81 and 82, as illustrated on the figure 8 , placed on the opening frame 31 and secured to each other, for example by means of a screw 83. The particular construction of this wedge-shaped wedge support makes it possible to increase the permissible load recovery without increasing its thickness and its size.

Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, les deux pattes sont identiques. Comme illustré sur la figure 9, chaque patte présente une languette latérale 91, permettant son placement sur le cadre ouvrant.According to the illustrated embodiment, the two tabs are identical. As illustrated on the figure 9 each leg has a lateral tab 91, allowing its placement on the opening frame.

Celui-ci a été préalablement usiné, pour coopérer avec la patte. Comme illustré sur la figure 10, il présente des lumières 101 et 102, par exemple de 2 mm x 60 mm, aptes à recevoir chacune une languette 91.This one has been previously machined, to cooperate with the paw. As illustrated on the figure 10 it has lights 101 and 102, for example 2 mm x 60 mm, each capable of receiving a tongue 91.

Chaque patte comprend, à une première extrémité, deux doigts 93 et 94, venant s'inscrire dans des lumières 95 et 96 à la seconde extrémité d'une autre patte, pour assembler les deux pattes perpendiculairement l'une à l'autre, formant une équerre (figure 8).Each tab comprises, at one end, two fingers 93 and 94, fitting into the slots 95 and 96 at the second end of another tab, to assemble the two tabs perpendicularly to one another, forming a bracket ( figure 8 ).

La seconde extrémité présente également une lumière centrale 97, dans laquelle vient se placer la vis 83, comme ceci est encore illustré sur la vue en coupe de la figure 11 (sur laquelle on constate également le faible espace disponible pour ces supports de cale), une fois la parclose et les joints montés).The second end also has a central lumen 97, into which the screw 83 is placed, as is further illustrated in the sectional view of FIG. figure 11 (on which we also see the small space available for these supports of wedge), once the bead and the joints mounted).

La vis 83 rejoint deux lumières 98 et 99 de la première extrémité de l'autre patte, pour assurer un assemblage final efficace, une cale, de l'épaisseur requise, ayant été préalablement placé sur la surface de la cale correspondante, en cas de besoin.The screw 83 joins two lumens 98 and 99 of the first end of the other leg, to ensure an effective final assembly, a shim, of the required thickness, having been previously placed on the surface of the corresponding shim, in case of need.
