Eine erfindungsgemäße Pfosten-Riegel-Fassade umfasst im Wesentlichen mindestens einen Pfosten 1, mindestens einen Riegel 2, mindestens einen Träger 3 und mindestens ein Flächenelement 4, beispielsweise eine Glasscheibe. In der Regel umfasst die erfindungsgemäße Pfosten-Riegel-Fassade eine Mehrzahl der vorgenannten Komponenten, die eine Fachwerkkonstruktion ausbilden, die wiederum als Fassade vor eine Hauswand o.ä. montiert wird. Dabei verlaufen die Riegel 2 in einem montierten Zustand in der Regel waagerecht, während die Pfosten 1 senkrecht verlaufen. Die Träger 3 sind in der Regel an den Riegeln befestigt und die Flächenelemente 4 sind in den sich bildenden Ausfachungen angebracht und stehen dort auf den Trägern 3 auf.A mullion-transom facade according to the invention essentially comprises at least one post 1, at least one transom 2, at least one carrier 3 and at least one surface element 4, for example a glass pane. As a rule, the mullion-transom facade according to the invention comprises a plurality of the aforementioned components, which form a framework construction, which in turn is mounted as a facade in front of a house wall or the like. The bolts 2 run horizontally in an assembled state, while the posts 1 run vertically. The carriers 3 are usually attached to the bars and the surface elements 4 are attached in the infills that are being formed and stand there on the carriers 3.

Bei den Pfosten 1, wie auch den Riegeln 2, handelt es sich in der Regel um längliche Hohlprofile, vorzugsweise mit einem im Wesentlichen rechteckförmigen Querschnitt. Der Riegel 2 weist mindestens eine Seitenwand, vorzugsweise eine erste Seitenwand 21, eine zweite Seitenwand 22, eine dritte Seitenwand 23 und eine vierte Seitenwand 24 auf. In einer montierten Position des Riegels 2 soll davon ausgegangen werden, dass die erste Seitenwand 21 und die dritte Seitenwand 23 senkrecht und die zweite Seitenwand 22 und die vierte Seitenwand 24 waagerecht verlaufen. Im Falle eines rechteckigen Querschnitts sollen die erste Seitenwand 21 und die dritte Seitenwand 23 die kürzeren Seiten und die zweite Seitenwand 22 und die vierte Seitenwand 24 die längeren Seiten bilden. Bevorzugtes Material für die Pfosten 1 und Riegel 2 ist Aluminium. Denkbar sind aber auch andere Materialien, wie Kunststoff oder Stahl. Der Riegel 2 weist einen Schraubkanal 25 zum Anschluss des Trägers 3 auf. Der Schraubkanal 25 verläuft in der Regel in Längsrichtung des Riegels 2 und umfasst erfindungsgemäß eine erste Schraubkanalwand 251 und eine zweite Schraubkanalwand 252, die zwischen sich eine Nut 253 ausbilden, in die Schrauben 36 eingeschraubt werden können. Vorzugsweise ist die Nut 253 mit Rillen in Längsrichtung ausgestattet, so dass die Schrauben hier einen besseren Halt haben. Der Schraubkanal 25 ist vorzugsweise an einer Seitenwand, insbesondere der ersten Seitenwand 21, angeordnet bzw. wird aus einer Seitenwand, insbesondere der ersten Seitenwand 21, heraus gebildet.The posts 1, as well as the bars 2, are generally elongated hollow profiles, preferably with a substantially rectangular cross-section. The bolt 2 has at least one side wall, preferably a first side wall 21, a second side wall 22, a third side wall 23 and a fourth side wall 24. In a mounted position of the bolt 2, it should be assumed that the first side wall 21 and the third side wall 23 run vertically and the second side wall 22 and the fourth side wall 24 run horizontally. In the case of a rectangular cross section, the first side wall 21 and the third side wall 23 should form the shorter sides and the second side wall 22 and the fourth side wall 24 should form the longer sides. The preferred material for the posts 1 and 2 bars is aluminum. However, other materials, such as plastic or steel, are also conceivable. The bolt 2 has a screw channel 25 for connecting the carrier 3. The screw channel 25 usually runs in the longitudinal direction of the bolt 2 and, according to the invention, comprises a first screw channel wall 251 and a second screw channel wall 252, which form a groove 253 between them, into which screws 36 can be screwed. The groove 253 is preferably provided with grooves in the longitudinal direction, so that the screws have a better hold here. The screw channel 25 is preferably arranged on a side wall, in particular the first side wall 21, or is formed from a side wall, in particular the first side wall 21.

Der Träger 3 ist vorzugsweise als längliches Profil ausgestaltet, weist aber in der Regel nicht die gleiche Länge wie der Riegel 2 auf, an dem der Träger 3 anschließt. Vielmehr ist der Träger 3 vorzugsweise örtlich angeordnet, so dass mehrere Träger 3, vorzugsweise zwei Träger 3, an einem Riegel 2 in Längsrichtung angebracht werden können. Der Träger 3 weist eine Auflage 31 als Anschluss für das Flächenelement 4 auf.The carrier 3 is preferably designed as an elongated profile, but generally does not have the same length as the bolt 2 to which the carrier 3 adjoins. Rather, the carrier 3 is preferably arranged locally, so that several carriers 3, preferably two carriers 3, are attached to a bolt 2 in the longitudinal direction can. The carrier 3 has a support 31 as a connection for the surface element 4.

Der Träger 3 ist vorzugsweise mit mindestens einer Schraube, vorzugsweise mehreren Schrauben, an dem Riegel 2, insbesondere dem Schraubkanal 25, befestigt. Hierzu weist der Träger 3 vorzugsweise mindestens eine Bohrung 32 zum Hindurchstecken der Schraube 36 oder eines ähnlichen Befestigungsmittels auf. Vorzugsweise weist der Träger mehr als eine Bohrung, insbesondere drei Bohrungen auf, die entsprechend zum Hindurchstecken von Schrauben bzw. zum Verschrauben des Trägers 3 mit entsprechend vielen Schrauben an dem Riegel, insbesondere dem Schraubkanal 25, benutzt werden können.The carrier 3 is preferably fastened to the bolt 2, in particular the screw channel 25, with at least one screw, preferably several screws. For this purpose, the carrier 3 preferably has at least one bore 32 for the screw 36 or a similar fastening means to be inserted through.

Erfindungsgemäß weist der Träger einen Vorsprung 33 auf, der in einem montierten Zustand des Trägers in den Schraubkanal 25 eingreift. Der Vorsprung 33 stellt ein zusätzliches Auflager dar, so dass insgesamt mit dem Träger 3 tendenziell größere Lasten aufgenommen werden können.According to the invention, the carrier has a projection 33 which engages in the screw channel 25 when the carrier is in an assembled state. The projection 33 represents an additional support, so that overall with the carrier 3, greater loads can tend to be absorbed.

Als vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der vorgenannten Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass diejenige Seitenwand des Riegels welche den Schraubkanal trägt bzw. ausbildet, insbesondere die erste Seitenwand 21 des Riegels 2, eine Wandstärke w von 1,8 bis 6mm, vorzugsweise 4mm, insbesondere der Riegel 2 umlaufend, also auch die Seitenwände 22, 23, 24 eine Wandstärke w von 1,8 bis 6mm, vorzugsweise 4mm, aufweisen. Eine derartige Wandstärke ermöglicht die Aufnahme von hohen Lasten, die durch das Flächenelement 4 über den Träger 3 in den Riegel 2 eingeleitet werden.As an advantageous further development of the aforementioned invention it is provided that that side wall of the bolt which carries or forms the screw channel, in particular the first side wall 21 of the bolt 2, has a wall thickness w of 1.8 to 6 mm, preferably 4 mm, in particular the bolt 2 all around, thus also the side walls 22, 23, 24 have a wall thickness w of 1.8 to 6 mm, preferably 4 mm. Such a wall thickness enables the absorption of high loads which are introduced into the bolt 2 by the surface element 4 via the carrier 3.

Der Träger 3 kann ferner einen Abschnitt 34 aufweisen, der im montierten Zustand des Trägers auf dem Schraubkanal 25, vorzugsweise der ersten Schraubkanalwand 251, aufliegt.The carrier 3 can also have a section 34 which, in the assembled state of the carrier, rests on the screw channel 25, preferably the first screw channel wall 251.

Auch kann der Träger 3 einen Abschnitt 35 aufweisen, der zwischen einem Vorsprung 26 des Riegels 2 und einer Schraubkanalwand, vorzugsweise der ersten Schraubkanalwand 251, angeordnet ist.The carrier 3 can also have a section 35 which is arranged between a projection 26 of the bolt 2 and a screw channel wall, preferably the first screw channel wall 251.

Der Schraubkanal 25 kann hinsichtlich der Ausgestaltung seines Querschnitts vorzugsweise konisch ausgestaltet sein. Insofern weisen die erste Schraubkanalwand 251 und/oder der zweite Schraubkanalwand 252 vorzugsweise eine leicht abfallende äußere Kontur in Richtung ihres freien Endes auf.The screw channel 25 can preferably have a conical configuration with regard to the configuration of its cross section. In this respect, the first screw channel wall 251 and / or the second screw channel wall 252 preferably have a slightly sloping outer contour in the direction of their free end.

Die vorgenannten Maßnahmen können einzeln oder in Kombination zur Erhöhung der Tragfähigkeit des Trägers 3 und letztendlich der Pfosten-Riegel-Fassade beitragen.The aforementioned measures can contribute individually or in combination to increasing the load-bearing capacity of the carrier 3 and ultimately the mullion-transom facade.

In dem Riegel 2 kann ferner mindestens ein sogenannter T-Verbinder 5 vorgesehen sein. Im Wesentlichen umfasst ein T-Verbinder einen quaderförmigen Grundkörper 51. Der T-Verbinder ist mit mindestens einer Bohrung 52 zum Hindurchführen einer Schraube 56 ausgestattet. Vorzugsweise können mehrere Bohrungen 52 vorgesehen sein, um entsprechend mehrere Schrauben 56 durch den T-Verbinder hindurchstecken zu können.
