Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Fensterbankmontagekelle für den Einbau von Fensterbänken unter einem Fensterrahmen; die Erfindung betrifft ferner ein Verfahren zur Montage einer Fensterbank unter einem Fensterrahmen unter Verwendung einer solchen Fensterbankmontagekelle.The invention relates to a window sill assembly trowel for installing window sills under a window frame; The invention further relates to a method for assembling a window sill under a window frame using such a window sill assembly trowel.

Der Einbau von Fensterbänken in die dafür vorgesehenen Öffnungen am Bau ist mit erheblichem Aufwand verbunden. Die Fensterbank ist mit leichtem raumseitigen Gefälle und lückenlos zum unteren Teil des Fensterrahmens exakt einzubauen. Es ist bislang üblich, die einzubauenden Fensterbänke mit Hilfe einer Wasserwaage in der Bauöffnung auszurichten und unter Verwendung von Kunststoffkeilen oder Kunststoffunterlegplättchen auf der Brüstung zu unterfüttern und zu fixieren. Diese Kunststoffunterleger verbleiben unter der einzubauenden Fensterbank.Installing window sills in the openings provided in the building requires considerable effort. The window sill must be installed precisely with a slight slope on the room side and without any gaps to the lower part of the window frame. To date, it has been common practice to align the window sills to be installed in the building opening using a spirit level and to lining and fixing them on the parapet using plastic wedges or plastic shims. These plastic underlays remain under the window sill to be installed.

Mit dieser bisher üblichen Vorgehensweise ist jedoch eine exakte Ausrichtung der einzubauenden Fensterbänke nur sehr umständlich und nur mit hohem Aufwand möglich. Bei langen Fensterbänken ist eine genaue Ausrichtung nur unter Einsatz von mindestens zwei Arbeitskräften zu erreichen. Nachteilig ist weiterhin, dass die Ausrichtung und Fixierung mittels Kunststoffkeilen bzw. -plättchen nur geringen Belastungen standhält und bereits leichte Erschütterungen bei der Montage zur Lageveränderung oder zum Kippen der Kunststoffunterfütterungen führen. Dies erfordert wiederum eine Korrektur, so dass diese Prozedur ggf. mehrfach wiederholt werden muss. Ferner ist es in der Baupraxis der Regelfall, dass zwischen Brüstung und unterem Fensterrahmen erhebliche Abstandunterschiede vorliegen und auszugleichen sind. Unebenheiten auf den Brüstungen, wie herausgebrochenes Mauerwerk, bieten keine geraden Auflageflächen, und häufig müssen an einigen Stellen mehrere Unterfütterungselemente aufeinander gestapelt werden, was typischerweise zu instabilen Unterfütterungen führt. Aufgrund von kaum zu vermeidendem Umkippen der Unterfütterungen muss daher dieser Vorgang in der Praxis häufig wiederholt werden.With this usual procedure, however, an exact alignment of the window sills to be installed is very complicated and only possible with a lot of effort. For long window sills, precise alignment can only be achieved using at least two workers. Another disadvantage is that the alignment and fixation using plastic wedges or plates can only withstand small loads and even slight vibrations during assembly lead to a change in position or to the plastic linings tipping. This in turn requires correction, so this procedure may have to be repeated several times. Furthermore, in construction practice it is the rule that there are significant differences in distance between the parapet and the lower window frame exist and need to be balanced. Unevenness on the parapets, such as broken masonry, does not provide straight support surfaces, and several relining elements often have to be stacked on top of each other in some places, which typically leads to unstable relinings. Because it is difficult to avoid tipping over of the relinings, this process often has to be repeated in practice.

Ist es gelungen, die Fensterbänke in die gewünschte Einbauposition zu bringen, werden die Hohlräume zwischen Fensterbank und Brüstung zumeist mit Montageschaum oder mit anderen Füllmaterialien gefüllt und somit auch fixiert, wobei die Kunststoffunterleger, wie eingangs erwähnt, unter der Fensterbank verbleiben. Beim Verfüllen, insbesondere Einschäumen, muss die Fensterbank vorne leicht angehoben werden, um dabei in ausreichendem Maße unter die Fensterbank gelangen zu können. Hierbei jedoch können die Unterlegelemente wiederum verwackeln und ihre Position verlieren. Da der Montageschaum oder ähnliches Füllmaterial dann unkontrolliert Druck auf die Fensterbank ausübt, gerät diese nun in eine inakzeptable Schiefstellung. Der Vorgang ist dann zu wiederholen, was einen erhöhten und mithin wirtschaftlich nachteiligen Aufwand bedeutet.If it has been possible to bring the window sills into the desired installation position, the cavities between the window sill and the parapet are usually filled with assembly foam or other filling materials and thus fixed, with the plastic underlays, as mentioned at the beginning, remaining under the window sill. When filling, especially foaming, the window sill must be raised slightly at the front in order to be able to reach sufficiently under the window sill. However, the supporting elements can become wobbly and lose their position. Since the assembly foam or similar filling material then exerts uncontrolled pressure on the window sill, it now becomes unacceptably crooked. The process then has to be repeated, which means increased and therefore economically disadvantageous effort.

In der US-Patentschrift US 6,578,837 B1 wird eine Schraubzwinge mit einem manuell bedienbaren Feststellmechanismus gelehrt. Schraubzwingen eignen sich zum längeren Aneinanderpressen von Werkstücken.In the US patent specification US 6,578,837 B1 A screw clamp with a manually operated locking mechanism is taught. Screw clamps are suitable for pressing workpieces together for longer periods of time.

In der österreichischen Gebrauchsmusterschrift AT 004 959 U1 wird ein aus Kunststoff bestehendes Montageprofil für eine Fensterbank offenbart. Das Montageprofil wird unterhalb des Fensters am Mauerwerk fixiert und dient zur Aufnahme des Fensterbretts für den Zeitraum der Fixierung durch weitere Baustoffe.In the Austrian utility model specification AT 004 959 U1 A plastic mounting profile for a window sill is disclosed. The mounting profile is fixed to the masonry below the window and is used to hold the window sill while it is fixed by other building materials.

Es sind zum Zeitrang der vorliegenden Patentanmeldung keine mechanischen Montagehilfen bzw. Werkzeuge im Bauhandwerk für den Einbau von Fensterbänken im Innen- und Außenbereich bekannt, mit denen der beschriebene Aufwand beim Einbau von Fensterbänken, insbesondere bei deren Unterfütterung, deutlich gesenkt werden kann.At the time of the present patent application, there are no known mechanical assembly aids or tools in the building trade for installing window sills indoors and outdoors, with which the described effort when installing window sills, especially when relining them, can be significantly reduced.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Montagewerkzeug vorzuschlagen, das für den Einbau von Fensterbänken, unabhängig von deren Größe und Länge, unterhalb eines Fensterrahmens unter den typischen Bedingungen einer Baustelle geeignet ist und den Arbeitsaufwand dieses Einbauvorganges vermindert. Ein weiterer Aspekt der Aufgabe besteht darin, ein Verfahren zur raschen Montage einer Fensterbank unter Verwendung dieses Montagewerkzeuges anzugeben.The invention is therefore based on the object of proposing an assembly tool that is suitable for installing window sills, regardless of their size and length, underneath a window frame under the typical conditions of a construction site and reduces the amount of work involved in this installation process. Another aspect of the task is to provide a method for quickly assembling a window sill using this assembly tool.

Die erfindungsgemäße Aufgabe wird durch eine Fensterbankmontagekelle für den Einbau von Fensterbänken unter einem Fensterrahmen mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1, durch ein Montageset mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 3 sowie durch ein Verfahren zur Montage einer Fensterbank unter einem Fensterrahmen nach Anspruch 4 gelöst. Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung ist im Unteranspruch 2 angegeben.The object of the invention is achieved by a window sill mounting trowel for installing window sills under a window frame with the features of claim 1, by a mounting set with the features of claim 3 and by a method for mounting a window sill under a window frame according to claim 4. An advantageous embodiment is specified in subclaim 2.

Nach der Erfindung ist also vorgesehen, dass die Fensterbankmontagekelle für den Einbau von Fensterbänken unter einem Fensterrahmen aus einem Abstandselement, das eine obere Seite geeignet zur Anlage an eine untere Seite des Fensterrahmens aufweist, aus einem Griffelement und aus einem Klemmelement, das mit dem Griffelement verbunden ist, besteht. Erfindungsgemäß ist dabei das Abstandselement mit einer Aussparung versehen, wodurch es unterschiedlich hohe seitliche Seiten für die Montage unterschiedlich starker Fensterbänke hat, und auf dem Klemmelement angebracht. Ferner ist das Klemmelement leicht überstehend in Bezug auf das Abstandselement angeordnet, und das Klemmelement und das Abstandselement sind so angeordnet, dass ein Montagewinkel zwischen Klemmelement und Abstandselement steckbar ist.According to the invention it is therefore provided that the window sill assembly trowel for installing window sills under a window frame consists of a spacer element which has an upper side suitable for contact with a lower side of the window frame, a handle element and a clamping element which is connected to the handle element is, exists. According to the invention, the spacer element is provided with a recess, whereby it has side sides of different heights for the installation of window sills of different thicknesses, and is attached to the clamping element. Furthermore, the clamping element is arranged to protrude slightly in relation to the spacer element, and the clamping element and the spacer element are arranged such that a mounting bracket can be inserted between the clamping element and the spacer element.

In einer Ausführungsform dieser Fensterbankmontagekelle ist vorgesehen, dass das Abstandselement mit mehreren Innengewindebohrungen versehen ist und dadurch auf dem Klemmelement mittels lösbarer Hülsenschrauben in einer ersten Anordnung und in einer zweiten, dazu entgegengesetzten Anordnung wechselbar - je nach Fensterbankstärke - befestigbar istIn one embodiment of this window sill assembly trowel it is provided that the spacer element is provided with several internally threaded holes and is thereby secured to the clamping element by means of releasable sleeve screws in a first Arrangement and can be changed in a second, opposite arrangement - depending on the thickness of the window sill

In einer anderen, nicht erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass die Fensterbankmontagekelle für den Einbau von Fensterbänken unter einem Fensterrahmen ebenfalls aus einem Abstandselement, das eine obere Seite geeignet zur Anlage an eine untere Seite des Fensterrahmens aufweist, aus einem Griffelement und aus einem Klemmelement, das mit dem Griffelement verbunden ist, besteht. Hierbei ist vorgesehen, dass das Abstandselement fest mit dem Klemmelement verbunden ist, so dass die Anpassung an die je gegebene gängige Fensterbrettstärke durch Wahl der Fensterbankmontagekelle mit der geeigneten Höhe erfolgt. Ferner ist das Klemmelement leicht überstehend in Bezug auf das Abstandselement angeordnet, und es ist ein Montagewinkel zwischen Klemmelement und Abstandselement steckbar.In another embodiment not according to the invention, it is provided that the window sill assembly trowel for installing window sills under a window frame also consists of a spacer element, which has an upper side suitable for contact with a lower side of the window frame, a handle element and a clamping element is connected to the handle element. It is provided here that the spacer element is firmly connected to the clamping element, so that the adaptation to the prevailing window sill thickness is carried out by selecting the window sill assembly trowel with the appropriate height. Furthermore, the clamping element is arranged to protrude slightly in relation to the spacer element, and a mounting bracket can be plugged in between the clamping element and the spacer element.

Die Verwendung einer erfindungsgemäßen Fensterbankmontagekelle ermöglicht als erfindungsgemäßes Verfahren zur Montage einer Fensterbank unter einem Fensterrahmen ein Verfahren, das die folgenden Arbeitsschritte aufweist: Es wird ein Montagewinkel zwischen Abstandselement und Klemmelement einer erfindungsgemäßen Fensterbankmontagekelle gesteckt und an dem Montagewinkel ein rückseitiger Klebestreifen entfernt. Sodann erfolgt ein Andrücken des Montagewinkels mit Hilfe der Fensterbankmontagekelle an einen Fensterbankanschlag, wobei die obere Seite des Abstandselementes an der unteren Seite des Fensterrahmens anliegt. Hiernach erfolgen ein Montieren der Fensterbank und ein Fixieren der Fensterbank mit Montageschaum oder einem anderen Fixierungsmittel. Das eingangs beschriebene instabile und aufwändige Ausrichten und Fixieren mit, ggf. aufeinandergeschichteten, Kunststoffunterfütterungen entfällt mithin beim erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren.The use of a window sill mounting trowel according to the invention enables a method according to the invention for mounting a window sill under a window frame, which has the following work steps: A mounting bracket is inserted between the spacer element and clamping element of a window sill mounting trowel according to the invention and an adhesive strip on the back is removed from the mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is then pressed against a window sill stop using the window sill mounting trowel, with the upper side of the spacer element resting on the lower side of the window frame. This is followed by assembling the window sill and fixing the window sill with mounting foam or another fixing agent. The unstable and complex alignment and fixing described at the beginning with plastic linings, possibly stacked on top of each other, is no longer necessary with the method according to the invention.

Die Erfindung umfasst ferner ein Montageset, bestehend aus einer erfindungsgemäßen Fensterbankmontagekelle und einem Montagewinkel, der eine selbstklebende Rückseite aufweist. Vorzugsweise weist der Montagewinkel auch eine Bohrung auf, so dass der Montagewinkel zusätzlich durch Schrauben auf dem Fensterbankanschlag fixiert werden kann.

Die in Figur 1 dargestellte Ausführungsform einer erfindungsgemäßen Fensterbankmontagekelle besteht aus einem, leicht überstehenden, Klemmelement 4 mit Griffelement 2. Der überstehende Teil kann dabei leicht, vorzugsweise in Richtung auf das Abstandselement 1, angekantet sein (nicht abgebildet). Auf diesem Klemmelement 4 befindet sich das Abstandselement 1. Das Abstandselement 1 hat mehrere, an verschiedenen Seiten angeordnete, Innengewindebohrungen 3. Die Innengewindebohrungen 3 nehmen Hülsenschrauben 5 auf, um Abstandselement 1 und Klemmelement 4 miteinander zu verbinden. Die Hülsenschrauben 5 sind lösbar, um das Abstandselement 1 auf dem Klemmelement 4 positionieren zu können. Das Abstandselement 1 besitzt eine Aussparung 1.1 und hat dadurch zwei unterschiedlich hohe Seiten (seitlich, in der Abbildung am linken und rechten Ende des Abstandselementes 1). Diese unterschiedlichen Höhen des Abstandselementes 1 ermöglichen die Montage unterschiedlich starker Fensterbänke 15. Es gibt verschiedene, gängige Fensterbankdicken (typischerweise 16-18 mm sowie 18-21 mm). Mit Hilfe der Positionierung der Aussparung 1.1. und der unterschiedlich hohen Seiten des Abstandselementes 1 können bei der Montage unterschiedliche Fensterbankdicken überbrückt und mithin Fensterbänke 15 unterschiedlicher Fensterbankstärke montiert werden.In the Figure 1 The illustrated embodiment of a window sill assembly trowel according to the invention consists of a slightly protruding clamping element 4 with a handle element 2. The protruding part can be slightly bent, preferably in the direction of the spacer element 1 (not shown). The spacer element 1 is located on this clamping element 4. The spacer element 1 has several internally threaded holes 3 arranged on different sides. The internally threaded holes 3 accommodate sleeve screws 5 in order to connect the spacer element 1 and clamping element 4 to one another. The sleeve screws 5 can be removed in order to be able to position the spacer element 1 on the clamping element 4. The spacer element 1 has a recess 1.1 and therefore has two sides of different heights (on the side, in the illustration at the left and right ends of the spacer element 1). These different heights of the spacer element 1 enable the installation of window sills 15 of different thicknesses. There are different, common window sill thicknesses (typically 16-18 mm and 18-21 mm). With the help of the positioning of the recess 1.1. and the different heights of the sides of the spacer element 1, different window sill thicknesses can be bridged during assembly and window sills 15 of different window sill thicknesses can therefore be installed.

Die in Figur 2 dargestellte Ausführungsform einer erfindungsgemäßen Fensterbankmontagekelle zeigt das gleiche Werkzeug wie in Figur 1, aber mit entgegengesetzter Anordnung des Abstandselementes 1 auf dem Klemmelement 4. Die Aussparung 1.1. befindet sich hier auf dem hinteren (in der Abbildung rechts gelegenen) Teil des Klemmelementes 4. Beim Abstandselement 1 wurde in diesem Beispiel die höhere Seite nach vorne angeordnet, so dass eine stärkere Fensterbank 15 montiert werden kann.In the Figure 2 The illustrated embodiment of a window sill assembly trowel according to the invention shows the same tool as in Figure 1 , but with the opposite arrangement of the spacer element 1 on the clamping element 4. The recess 1.1. is located here on the rear part of the clamping element 4 (on the right in the illustration). In this example, the higher side of the spacer element 1 was placed towards the front so that a stronger window sill 15 can be mounted.

Statt der in Fig. 1 und Fig. 2 dargestellten Ausführungsform mit einer durch mindestens eine Hülsenschraube 5 und mindestens eine korrespondierende Innengewindebohrung 3 hergestellten lösbaren Verbindung zwischen Abstandselement 1 und Klemmelement 4 kann in einer anderen Variante vorgesehen sein, dass Abstandselement 1 und Klemmelement 4 fest miteinander verbunden sind und dementsprechend keine Hülsenschrauben 5 und Innengewindebohrungen 3 vorhanden sind. Dabei braucht nicht notwendig eine Aussparung 1.1 vorgesehen sein. In einer Ausführungsform dieser Variante kann vorteilhaft im vorderen Bereich eine Aussparung 1.1 zur besseren Aufnahme eines Montagewinkels 6 vorgesehen sein. Bei der Fensterbankmontage wird dann je nach Fensterbankstärke eine Fensterbankmontagekelle mit geeigneter Höhe, gegeben durch die Höhe des Abstandshalters, als Montagewerkzeug gewählt.Instead of the in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 illustrated embodiment with a detachable connection between spacer element 1 and clamping element 4 produced by at least one sleeve screw 5 and at least one corresponding internally threaded hole 3, it can be provided in another variant that spacer element 1 and clamping element 4 are firmly connected to one another and accordingly no sleeve screws 5 and internally threaded holes 3 available. A recess 1.1 does not necessarily need to be provided. In one embodiment of this variant, a recess 1.1 can advantageously be provided in the front area to better accommodate a mounting bracket 6. When installing the window sill, depending on the thickness of the window sill, a window sill installation trowel with a suitable height, given by the height of the spacer, is selected as the installation tool.

Figur 3 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Fensterbankmontagekelle in drei verschiedenen Perspektiven. Die in den oberen beiden Abbildungen dargestellten Zustände der Fensterbankmontagekelle zeigen von vorne die beiden Anordnungsvarianten des Abstandelementes 1 auf dem Klemmelement 4. Die untere Abbildung stellt aus der entgegengesetzten Perspektive, also von Seiten des Griffelementes 2 her, eine Rückansicht der Fensterbankmontagekelle dar. Figure 3 shows a window sill assembly trowel according to the invention in three different perspectives. The states shown in the top two figures The window sill assembly trowel shows the two arrangement variants of the spacer element 1 on the clamping element 4 from the front. The figure below shows a rear view of the window sill assembly trowel from the opposite perspective, i.e. from the side of the handle element 2.

Figur 4 zeigt einen Montagewinkel 6 mit selbstklebender Rückseite 7. In der dargestellten Ausführungsform ist ferner eine Bohrung 8 für eine zusätzliche Befestigungsmöglichkeit am Fensterbankanschlag 10 vorgesehen. Im Zusammenwirken mit der Fensterbankmontagekelle ist der Montagewinkel 6 unerlässlich beim erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren der Fensterbankmontage. Für seine Funktion des Aufnehmens der Fensterbank 15 ist der Montagewinkel 6 vorzugsweise nicht völlig starr, sondern etwas flexibel; ferner verfügt er vorzugsweise über eine hinreichende Verstärkung an seiner Aufnahmefläche. Der vom Montagewinkel 6 gegebene geometrische Winkel ist vorzugsweise ein spitzer Winkel, nahe 90°. Figure 4 shows a mounting bracket 6 with a self-adhesive back 7. In the embodiment shown, a hole 8 is also provided for an additional fastening option on the window sill stop 10. In cooperation with the window sill assembly trowel, the mounting bracket 6 is essential in the window sill assembly method according to the invention. For its function of receiving the window sill 15, the mounting bracket 6 is preferably not completely rigid, but rather somewhat flexible; Furthermore, it preferably has sufficient reinforcement on its receiving surface. The geometric angle given by the mounting bracket 6 is preferably an acute angle, close to 90°.

Figur 5 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Fensterbankmontagekelle in Verbindung mit dem Montagewinkel 6. Der Montagewinkel 6 wird zwischen Klemmelement 4 und Abstandselement 1 gesteckt. Dargestellt ist eine vordere Positionierung der Aussparung 1.1 des Abstandselementes 1, wobei es für die Funktion unerheblich ist, ob die Aussparung 1.1 vorn oder hinten auf dem Klemmelement 4 positioniert ist. Die Lage der Aussparung 1.1 ist nur für die Montage von unterschiedlich starken Fensterbänken 15 relevant. Der Halt des Montagewinkels 6 zwischen Abstandselement 1 und Klemmelement 4 ist trotz Aussparung 1.1, vorzugsweise durch Klemmwirkung, gegeben. An seiner Rückseite 7 weist der Montagewinkel 6 einen Klebestreifen 7' zur Fixierung am Fensterbankanschlag 10 auf. Figure 5 shows a window sill mounting trowel according to the invention in connection with the mounting bracket 6. The mounting bracket 6 is inserted between the clamping element 4 and the spacer element 1. Shown is a front positioning of the recess 1.1 of the spacer element 1, whereby it is irrelevant for the function whether the recess 1.1 is positioned at the front or rear on the clamping element 4. The location of the recess 1.1 is only relevant for the installation of window sills 15 of different thicknesses. The mounting bracket 6 between the spacer element 1 and the clamping element 4 is held despite the recess 1.1, preferably by clamping action. On its back 7, the mounting bracket 6 has an adhesive strip 7 'for fixing it to the window sill stop 10.

Figur 6 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Fensterbankmontagekelle in Verbindung mit dem Montagewinkel 6 wie in Figur 5. Im Unterschied hierzu ist jedoch die Aussparung 1.1 in diesem Beispiel auf dem hinteren Teil des Klemmelementes 4 angeordnet. Figure 6 shows a window sill mounting trowel according to the invention in connection with the mounting bracket 6 as in Figure 5 . In contrast to this, however, the recess 1.1 in this example is arranged on the rear part of the clamping element 4.

Figur 7 zeigt einzelne Arbeitsschritte beim Anbringen des Montagewinkels 6 an einen Fensterbankanschlag 10 auf einem Mauerwerk 9. Im dargestellten Beispiel ist die Aussparung 1.1 auf dem Klemmelement 4 im hinteren Teil, da eine stärkere Fensterbank 15 eingebaut wird und somit die höhere Seite des Abstandselementes 1 vorn ist. Figure 7 shows individual work steps when attaching the mounting bracket 6 to a window sill stop 10 on a masonry 9. In the example shown is the recess 1.1 on the clamping element 4 in the rear part, since a stronger window sill 15 is installed and thus the higher side of the spacer element 1 is at the front.

Beim erfindungsgemäßen Montageverfahren wird der Montagewinkel 6 zwischen Abstandselement 1 und Klemmelement 4 gesteckt. Es wird der rückseitige Klebestreifen 7' entfernt und der Montagewinkel 6 an den Fensterbankanschlag 10 gedrückt. Wie dargestellt liegt dabei die obere Seite des Abstandselementes 1 unmittelbar an der unteren Seite des Fensterrahmens 11 an, um den korrekten Abstand herzustellen. Es empfiehlt sich die Montage von mindestens zwei Montagewinkeln 6. Der Montagewinkel 6 ist bereit für die Aufnahme der Fensterbank 15. Je nach Größe und Schwere der Fensterbank 15 können die Montagewinkel 6 mittels Bohrung und durch Schrauben auf dem Fensterbankanschlag 10 fixiert werden. Dazu kann sich eine Bohrung 8 auf dem Montagewinkel 6 befinden. Bei kurzen und dadurch leichteren Fensterbänken reicht auch die Klebekraft mittels Klebestreifen 7' aus, um die Fensterbank 15 für die Montage zu fixieren.In the assembly method according to the invention, the assembly bracket 6 is inserted between the spacer element 1 and the clamping element 4. The adhesive strip 7' on the back is removed and the mounting bracket 6 is pressed onto the window sill stop 10. As shown, the upper side of the spacer element 1 rests directly on the lower side of the window frame 11 in order to create the correct distance. It is recommended to install at least two mounting brackets 6. The mounting bracket 6 is ready to accommodate the window sill 15. Depending on the size and weight of the window sill 15, the mounting brackets 6 can be fixed on the window sill stop 10 using a hole and screws. For this purpose, there can be a hole 8 on the mounting bracket 6. For short and therefore lighter window sills, the adhesive strength using adhesive strips 7' is sufficient to fix the window sill 15 for installation.

Figur 8 zeigt die fertig montierte Fensterbank 15. Die Montage der Fensterbank 15 erfolgt also ohne Unterlegeklötzchen und mit enormer Zeiteinsparung. Klemmt die Fensterbank 15 zwischen Fensterrahmen 11 und Montagewinkel 6 kann diese je nach Anforderung befestigt werden. In dieser Abbildung wird die Fixierung mit Montageschaum 14, die am häufigsten verwendete Fixierung, dargestellt. Figure 8 shows the fully assembled window sill 15. The assembly of the window sill 15 is carried out without shims and with enormous time savings. If the window sill 15 is clamped between the window frame 11 and the mounting bracket 6, it can be attached depending on requirements. This figure shows fixation with mounting foam 14, the most commonly used fixation.
