Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a roof window comprising a stationary frame adapted to be built into a structure and having a top frame member, two side frame members and a bottom frame member, and defining a frame plane, a first direction extending between and perpendicular to the top frame member and the bottom frame member, a second direction extending between and perpendicular to the side frame members, and a third direction extending perpendicular to both the frame plane, the first direction and the second direction, a sash having a top sash member, two side sash members and a bottom sash member, and defining a sash plane, an intermediate frame, at least one first hinge connection for connecting the sash and the intermediate frame to the stationary frame, and at least one second hinge connection for connecting the sash to the intermediate frame, the sash being rotatable about the first hinge connection between a closed position and an open position, the sash plane being parallel with the frame plane in the closed position.
  • EP 2 770 148 A2 describes a roof window of this type in which the rotation about the first hinge connection and the rotation about the second hinge connection, respectively, follows in opposite directions of rotation.
  • the first hinge connection is arranged such that the hinge axis of the first hinge connection is arranged in line with the top sash member and within the outer delimitations of the top frame member.
  • the sash and stationary frame are arranged flush with one another seen from the outside of a building in which the window is mounted, i.e. such that the sash rests within the central opening in the stationary frame.
  • FR 2 581 119 A1 describes another roof window of this type in which the rotation about the first hinge connection and the rotation about the second hinge connection, respectively, follows in the same direction of rotation.
  • the first hinge connection is arranged such that the hinge axis of the first hinge connection is arranged in line with the top sash member and within the outer delimitations of the top frame member.
  • the sash and stationary frame are arranged flush with one another seen from the outside of a building in which the window is mounted, i.e. such that the sash rests within the central opening in the stationary frame.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a window of the type mentioned in the introduction which has improved insulating properties and which has an improved imperviousness both to air and to moisture when the sash is in the closed position.
  • this is obtained by a window of the type described in the introduction, in which the top sash member and the first hinge connection are, when seen in the closed position of the sash, positioned such that a hinge axis of the first hinge connection and the top sash member are positioned at a distance from one another in the first direction, such that a space is provided between the top sash member and the hinge axis of the first hinge connection.
  • a window is provided in which the sash may be rotated from the closed position to the open position about both the first hinge connection and the second hinge connection whilst being fully above or outside the frame plane as well as, where provided, a sealing arrangement provided on the stationary frame.
  • This in turn provides for a window with which more space is provided for the rotation of the sash with respect to the intermediate frame.
  • the sash during rotation of the sash with respect to the intermediate frame, is always located outside the frame plane of the stationary frame and in the closed position the sash is arranged on top of the stationary frame when seen in the third direction.
  • a window allows for a reduced overall frame dimension while keeping an unchanged pane area, which in turn allows for an increased U-value of the window.
  • a window comprises a larger area of contact between the sash and the stationary frame and thus an improved imperviousness both to air and to moisture when the sash is in the closed position.
  • a further advantage lies in that such a window allows for a more simplistic and taut design of the window.
  • a window in which, in the closed position, the sash is arranged on top of the stationary frame when seen in the third direction, a window is obtained with which, in addition to the above-mentioned advantages, the forces arising from the impact between sash and stationary frame when closing the window may be distributed across the whole stationary frame. Thereby a more robust and durable window construction is obtained.
  • a sealing arrangement is provided at a surface of at least one of the sash and the stationary frame abutting the stationary frame and the sash, respectively, in the closed position. Thereby a window with a high imperviousness both to air and to moisture when the sash is in the closed position is provided.
  • the sealing arrangement is provided extending along substantially the whole circumferential extension of the at least one of the sash and the stationary frame. Thereby a window with a particularly high or even complete imperviousness both to air and to moisture when the sash is in the closed position is provided.
  • the stationary frame further comprises a first further side frame member and a second further side frame member, the first and second further side frame member extending beyond the top frame member opposite to the bottom frame member when seen in the first direction and wherein the first hinge connection is for connecting the sash and the intermediate frame to the first and second further side frame member of the stationary frame.
  • a window is provided which enables a rotation of the sash from the closed position all the way to a position in which the sash is rotated approximately 180 degrees with respect to the closed position in one continuous movement and thus in a very simple manner.
  • the space provided between the top sash member and the first hinge connection is adapted for receiving a screening arrangement. This provides for an optimum utilisation of the space.
  • means for receiving a screening arrangement may be provided in the space provided between the top sash member and the first hinge connection.
  • means for attaching a screening arrangement to the roof window may be provided in the space provided between the top sash member and the first hinge connection.
  • a window is provided with which suitable and/or desired a screening arrangement may be arranged and/or mounted on the window in a simple manner in such a way that it is hidden from view.
  • Suitable screening arrangements include but are not necessarily limited to roller shutters, blinds, awnings, curtains and insect screenings.
  • insect screening or net it is also feasible to arrange the insect screening or net in or on the stationary frame, particularly as the sash in the closed position is arranged on top of the stationary frame when seen in the third direction and thus will not interfere with the insect screening or net and as the rotation of the sash takes place outside the frame plane.
  • the space provided between the top sash member and the first hinge connection may be adapted for receiving a ventilation arrangement.
  • a window is provided with which suitable and/or desired a ventilation arrangement may be arranged and/or mounted on the window in a simple manner in such a way that it is hidden from view.
  • Suitable ventilation arrangements include but are not necessarily limited to air conditioners, heat exchangers and air filtering devices.
  • the window further comprises a cover element adapted for closing the space towards the surroundings.
  • a screening arrangement or a ventilation arrangement mounted in the space provided on the window may be protected from undesired outside influences, such as rain, snow, wind and dust or other impurities.
  • the cover element may comprise, or be, a solar panel.
  • electrical energy for driving a screening arrangement or a ventilation arrangement mounted in the space provided on the window may be harvested in a simple and environmentally friendly manner.
  • the first hinge connection is positioned such that a hinge axis of the first hinge connection, when seen in the first direction, is arranged on a side of the top frame member opposite to the bottom frame member when seen in the first direction such as to extend outside the outer delimitation of the top frame member.
  • first hinge connection is positioned such that the hinge axis of the first hinge connection is arranged flush with a surface of the top frame member opposite to the bottom frame member.
  • first hinge connection is positioned such that the hinge axis of the first hinge connection is arranged at a distance from the top frame member.
  • Either of these above-mentioned two embodiments provides for a window with which sufficient space is provided for the rotation of the sash with respect to the intermediate frame, to ensure that during the rotation of the sash with respect to the intermediate frame the sash cannot interfere with the space provided between the top sash member and the first hinge connection.
  • FIG. 1 For embodiments, the second hinge connection is arranged in such a way that, in the closed position of the sash, the hinge axis of the second hinge connection is arranged at a distance from the sash and on a side of the sash opposite to the frame when seen in the third direction.
  • a window is provided in which the sash during rotation with respect to the intermediate frame is elevated further with respect to the stationary frame, thus providing a further contribution to that the sash may be rotated from the closed position to the open position about both the first hinge connection and the second hinge connection whilst being fully above the frame plane as well as, where provided, a sealing arrangement provided on the stationary frame.
  • Figs. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of a window according to the invention.
  • the window comprises a stationary frame 1 adapted to be built into an inclined roof structure (not shown).
