Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a skylight window for being installed in a roof of a building, the skylight window comprising:
  • Inclined roof windows are typically built into an opening in an inclined roof structure with an angle above 15 degrees with a substantial part of the inclined roof window positioned within the inclined roof structure in an installed position.
  • Flat roof skylight windows are generally installed on top of the exterior side of flat roofs of buildings, where the inclination of the roof is less than 5 degrees with respect to the horizontal plane.
  • flat roof skylight windows are installed to cover an opening in the roof, i.e. a substantial part of the flat roof skylight window extends above an exterior side of the flat roof structure in an installed position.

  • the skylight window may be more compact i.e. with a lower total height in the height direction, whilst still comprising a motor-driven actuator for opening and closing the skylight window.
  • a skylight window that is compact in the height direction may improve insulation properties as less thermally conducting sash or frame material may need to be provided.
  • the skylight window may further have better entry of light as the motor-driven actuator is positioned outside the periphery of the IGU and so may not block light entering through the IGU.

  • the skylight window 1 further comprises a motor-driven actuator in the form of a chain actuator 100 positioned between the IGU 5 and the frame 7 in a direction parallel with the exposed interior major surface 5b of the IGU 5 in the closed position of the skylight window 1 and between the lining panel protrusion 10e and the outer side of the first frame side member in the lateral direction. Positioning the chain actuator 100 outside the periphery of the IGU 5 improves the light entry and view through the skylight window.
  • the motor-driven actuator 100 comprises an elongated lifting element in the form of a chain 101 connecting between the frame 7 and the sash 6, in this embodiment between a first frame side and sash side member 10 and 14, for moving the sash between the open position and the closed position of the skylight window.
  • the chain 101 has a top end 101a, in this case a top end of a top joint of the chain.
  • the motor-driven actuator 100 has a first position in which the skylight window 1 is in the closed position and a second position in which the skylight window is in the open position.
  • the top end 101a In the closed position of the skylight window, the top end 101a is positioned above the height level of the interior major surface 5b and above the height level of the exterior major surface 5g of the IGU 5 in the height direction. In other embodiments the top end 101a is only positioned above the interior major surface 5b of the IGU 5.
  • the chain actuator 100 Approximately 80 % of the total height HM of the chain actuator 100, as well as the top element 100a thereof, are positioned above the exposed interior major surface 5b of the IGU 5 in the height direction, so providing a compact skylight window 1.
  • the lifting element may alternatively be a lifting rod, a stem, a spindle, a telescopic lifting element, a screw, or the like.
  • the chain actuator 100 unrolls the chain 101 from the first position to the second position, thereby pushing the sash 6 together with the IGU 5 in the exterior direction and into the open position of the skylight window 1.
  • FIG. 3 which shows a cross-section of an embodiment similar to the embodiment in FIG. 2 , the elongated lifting member in the form of a lifting rod (not shown) is fully retracted inside the actuator housing 102.
  • the motor-driven actuator 100 is positioned within the insulating member 21. Approximately 70 % of the total height HM of the motor-driven actuator 100 is positioned above the exposed interior major surface 5b of the IGU 5 in the height direction.
  • An opening (not shown) in the insulatung member 81 for lifting rod to extend through is provided.
  • a sash covering leg 80 is further provided on the first sash side member 14 to cover and hide part of the sash from sight when viewing through the skylight window 1 from the interior of the building.
  • the cover leg 80 also comprises a side guide rail 42a for guiding a screening body (as seen in FIG. 4 ).
  • FIG. 4 shows a perspective view from above of an embodiment of the skylight window 1 according to the present invention installed in a roof 2, where a part of the window has been removed for illustration purposes.
  • the window frame 7 and the window sash 6 correspond to the ones shown in FIG. 3 , the motor-driven actuator 100 being hidden from view as it is positioned within an insulating member cavity of the insulating member 81.
  • the weather shield pane 8 here has been removed for clarity.
  • FIG. 4 also shows a screening device 34, which is mounted in a spacing delimited in the width direction W by the first 14 and second 13 sash side members.
  • the second sash member 13 is substantially identical to the first sash side member 14 so that the exterior sides of the sash side members together define an exterior side of the sash 6 which extends substantially in parallel to the exterior major surface 5g of the IGU 5.
  • the screening device 34 is here depicted as a roller curtain in which the screening body 36 is a covering cloth, which is at least partially rolled up on a collection device 35 in the form of a collection roller in the first non-screening, end position, but which is here shown in a second, screening end position, where it is extended towards the second sash side member 13 for covering the IGU 5.
  • the screening device 34 might, however, also be another type of blind or a shutter.
  • a fixation member 39 is also attached to the first sash side member 14 and extends towards the second sash side member 13. The fixation member 39 contributes to retaining a top casing of the screening device 34 by preventing it from moving upwards, away from the exterior major surface 5g of the IGU 5.
