Description

Field Related To Invention

The invention is a high-security movable panel system also known as a guillotine, that moves in the vertical direction and is driven by using an engine, manual, chain, belt, rack, worm gear, etc., that can be used as a railing with the lower panel keeping fixed, that can be used on the ground or a place higher than the ground and in which the outer surface of all panels can be easily cleaned from the interior as well as known glass balcony systems.

The State of Art Related to the Invention (Prior Art)

In existing guillotine systems, when used in a place higher than the ground, such as a balcony, cleaning cannot be performed on the outer surfaces of the windows. Existing systems have tried to solve this problem by using only techniques such as transom opening to the lower panel and pivot opening to the middle panel. However, none of these methods can provide an easy and safe cleaning opportunity. Trying to wipe the outer surface of the middle panel from the lower side by extending from the transom opening of the lower panel in systems with only the lower panel opening transom makes the users tired, and also not every part of the surface of the middle panel can be cleaned. In systems with a pivot opening in the middle panel, the user takes the pivot opened glass panel on its back to wipe the outer surface of the lower panel and reaches the bottom side. In such systems, fully safe detailed cleaning and cleaning comfort cannot be provided in any way.

Purposes of Developing the Invention

The aim of the invention is to design a guillotine system consisting of comfortable and high-security vertical panels, in which each surface of the panels installed at places higher than the ground, such as balconies can be easily cleaned from the interior.

Summary of the Invention

This system is a moveable panel system or a guillotine system that operates automatically or manually on the vertical axis and generally consists of three panels. One of the panels is fixed and the other panels are moved. When the guillotine is closed, all panels overlap each other, completely separating the interior from the exterior. When the guillotine is opened, the movable panels come to the level of the fixed panel, opening the gap between the interior and the exterior.
In automatic systems, the system provides the motion energy from the electric engine. Chain, belt, rack or worm gear are used to transmit the motion. When the chain is used, a chain gear is placed on the pipe at both ends of the octagonal pipe, enabling it to rotate together with the octagonal pipe. As the chain gear rotates, it pushes the chain back and forth and moves the chain. One counter-weight is used at both ends to give tension to the chain. In the belt system, it is attached to the pipe at both ends of the octagonal pipe using a pulley. As the engine rotates, the pulley rotates and wraps the belt thereon.
The chain and belt are connected to the profile on the side of the upper panel. As the chain or belt moves, the upper panel also moves. At the point where each panel joins the other panel, the carrier and insulated clamp profile extend horizontally. The teeth of this profile are interlocked with the teeth of the carrier profile of the other panel. When the upper panel raises up to its length, it grips the carrier profile of the middle panel and moves the middle panel. Two panels rise up at once and bring the movable panel system into the closed position.
The upper panel is the outermost panel and the lower panel is the interior facing panel. This arrangement was made to prevent rainwater from penetrating the interior and for the drops hitting the panel to flow outside.
The lower panel in this system is fixed and can be opened inwards. In this way, the outer surface of the lower panel can be wiped from the interior. The middle panel is a movable panel, and with this invention, it can be opened inwards, unlike other systems, so its outer surface can be wiped from the interior. The outer surface of the upper panel can be easily wiped from the interior when the system is open and all panels are on the floor, since its front part is not blocked. When the system is closed and the entire upper panel pulls the middle panel and is closed, the inner surface of all panels can be wiped from the interior. This invention is suitable for use in places above ground level, such as balconies, wherein users can wipe all surfaces of all panels from the interior without difficulty.
Since this invention will be used in high places, the wind load was taken into account, and the profiles and the whole system were designed to be windproof.

Detailed Description of The Invention

The closed view of the movable panel system, all sides of which can be safely cleaned from the interior, is shown in Figure 1. The upper panel (1) is at the top and is the panel facing the outside. The middle panel (2) is in the middle and it is the panel between the interior and the exterior. The upper panel (1) holds the middle panel (2) and lifts it up. The lower panel (3) is at the bottom and is the panel facing the interior. In Figure 2, the opened state of the movable panel system is shown. When the system is turned on, all panels go down. Figure 3 shows the opened state of the lower panel (3). By opening the lower panel (3), it is possible to clean the outer side of the lower panel (3) from inside. Figure 4 shows the situation where the middle panel is opened. In this case, it is possible to clean the outer surface of the middle panel (2) from the interior. In the outer surface of the upper panel, the outer surface of the upper panel (1) can be easily wiped from the inside in the position where the system shown in Figure 2 is fully open. When the system shown in Figure 1 is closed, the inner surface of all panels can be wiped from the interior. With this invention, the interior and exterior surfaces of all panels can be easily and safely wiped from the interior.
The movable panel system, which can be safely cleaned on all sides, includes a rain shield profile (4) under the system so that the opened panels can rotate easily and rainwater and cleaning water do not enter the interior. Under the lower panel (3) and the middle panel (2), there is a rotation profile (6) that allows the panels to rotate easily. The rotation hole (13) at the lower part of the rotation profile (6) performs a rotational movement on the rotation bulge (7) located on the rain shield profile (4). In order to make this rotation more comfortable, there is a rotation gasket (10) extending along with the rotation profile (6) inside the rotation hole (13). Again, the holding bulge (8) on the rain shield profile (4) holds the holding protrusion (9) under the rotation profile (6) under the lower panel (3) in order to ensure that the lower panel (3) does not open further after a certain angle during the opening and ensures that the lower panel does not open further. In this way, the protection of the panel from falling over is provided throughout the entire floor. Figure 5a shows the situation of the lower panel (3) when it is opened. When the lower panel (3) is opened, it makes a soft contact with the rain shield profile (4) by means of the comfort gasket on the rotating profile (6).
When the middle panel (2) is opened, the rotation hole (13) under the rotation profile (6) under the middle panel (2) opens by performing a rotational movement on the rotation bulge (7) on the rain shield profile (4) with the comfort provided by the rotation gasket (10). Figure 5b shows the situation where the middle panel (2) is opened. When the middle panel (2) is opened, it fits into the lower panel (3) and does not open further. When the upper panel (1) is lowered, the puller profile (5) under the panel sits on the rain shield profile (4). The puller bristle brush (12) is inserted into the puller profile (5) and provides insulation between the panels when the system is turned off.
The water draining channels (14) inside the rain shield profile (4) serve to drain the water leaking from the holes drilled on the rain shield profile (4) towards the outside.
As seen in Figure 6 and Figure 8, the lower panel (3) movable truss (17) connects the lower panel (3) to the counterpart profile (22) from the right and left. In this way, extra safety precautions are taken against falling. In order to open the lower panel, the shaft of any window arm is inserted through the lower cover (21) of the opening/closing mechanism arm and the opening/closing mechanism (18) is opened. When the heads (19) of the opening/closing mechanism (18) are separated from the counterpart (24) of the opening/closing mechanism shown in Figure 8 and become free, so the lower panel (3) can be opened. When the lower panel (3) is closed, the counterpart gasket (23) tightly presses the counterpart profile (22) to provide thermal insulation. The opening/closing mechanism arm upper cover (20) covers aesthetically the lower cover (21) of the opening/closing mechanism arm when there is no opening/closing mechanism arm. One end of the opening/closing mechanism (18) and the movable truss (17) are connected to the opening/closing mechanism profile (28) and the other end of the opening/closing mechanism counterpart (24) and the moveable truss (17) to the counterpart profile (22). In this system, there is no arrangement to close the four sides of the panel used in other systems with the base profile-panel profile profile relationship. The base profile-panel profile relationship is only provided by the counterpart profile (22) on the side and the opening/closing mechanism profile (28). Since there is no base profile-panel profile relationship on the lower panel (3), the middle panel (2) can be opened easily.
In Figure 7 and Figure 9, the situation in which the middle panel (2) is opened is shown. Since the middle panel (2) is movable, there is no opening/closing mechanism (18) and opening/closing mechanism counterpart (24) in the middle panel (2). Since the center of gravity of the panel is on the part of the rotation bulge (7) facing the exterior, the middle panel (2) does not rotate without a force and it is opened by the user by pulling it towards the interior. When the middle panel (2) is opened, it presses on the lower panel (3) as seen in Figure 7. In addition, the holding part (25) seen in Figure 10 prevents the middle panel (2) from falling when the middle panel (2) is opened, pressing the side post double-channel profile (26) as seen in Figure 11a, and acts as a truss. Thus, an extra safety measure is provided against falling.
As seen in Figure 10a, the lower corner coupling piece (29) has the same lines as the rotating profile (6), and fits into the rain shield profile (4) as in the rotating profile. In this way, the insulation under the system continues throughout the panel without interruption. The lower corner coupling piece (29) connects the rotating profile (6) under the lower panel (3) and the opening/closing mechanism profile (28) with at least two screws. Although the lower corner coupling piece (29) is a connection piece between profiles, it is a part that has a surface that allows the lower panel (3) to open and maximizes the insulation.
In Figure 10a, the opened state of the lower panel (3) inside the side posts is shown. In Figure 10b, the opened state of middle panel (2) inside the side posts is shown. The middle panel lower corner coupling piece (30) connects the rotating profile (6) of the middle panel (2) and the panel profile (31) with at least two screws. The balance wheel (27) located at the end of the middle panel lower corner coupling piece (30) presses the side post double-channel profile (26) when the middle panel is closed, allowing the middle panel (2) to move up and down in a balanced manner. When the middle panel (2) is lowered and opened, it is released, the holding part (25) is activated and the holding part (25) presses the side post double-channel profile (26) and prevents the middle panel (2) from being opened too much. The balance wheel (27) is connected to the middle panel lower corner coupling piece (30) with a square nut (56) fitting into the middle panel lower corner coupling piece (30) and with a bolt (57) connecting the square nut (56) and the balance wheel (27) as seen in Figure 23a. When the middle panel (2) is closed and moves upwards, the holding part (25) always moves parallel to the side post double-channel profile (26) as seen in Figure 10a and does not rub anywhere and it does not interfere with the movement of the middle panel (2).
The arrangement of the side posts was shown in Figure 12a. The side post single channel profile (34) is connected to the side post main profile (16) from the interior and exterior. The side post double-channel profile (26) is connected to the side post main profile (16) from the middle part. As seen in Figure 11b, the side post double-channel profile (26) close to the interior is cut and separated from the profile in order to open the middle panel (2). An edge of the opening/closing mechanism profile (28) provides the location of the cut portion. When the lower panel (3) is closed, the opening/closing mechanism profile (28) forms integrity with the side post single channel profile, preserving the aesthetic integrity of the system.
As seen in Figure 11b, the upper corner coupling piece (32) connects the opening/closing mechanism profile (28) and the windproof profile (35) with at least two screws. In Figure 12b, the detailed view of the upper corner coupling piece (32) is available. There is an upper corner insulating gasket (36) and an upper corner insulating bristle brush (37) on the upper corner coupling piece (32). When the lower panel (3) is closed, the upper corner insulating gasket (36) located on the upper corner coupling piece (32) firmly presses to the upper corner connecting insulation seal counterpart (38) located at the lower part of the counterweight holder (33) part shown in Figure 13a. At the same time, the counterweight holder gasket (39) meets the upper corner insulation bristle brush (37). Thus, double-layer insulation is provided. The counterweight of the chain that provides the movement of the system sits on the counterweight holder (33) when the system is turned off.
The windproof profile (35) seen in Figure 13b is the profile located on the upper part of the lower panel (3). The transverse part is higher than its height in order to be resistant to high wind loads and to give less deflection. A reinforcement part profile (40) made of iron can be placed into the windproof profile as seen in Figure 13b. If the reinforcement part profile (40) is placed, the windproofing is further increased. In order to prevent the placed reinforcement part profile (40) from moving inside the windproof profile (35), it is fixed to the windproof profile (35) with the reinforcement part fixing screw (41). In order that the head of the reinforcement part fixing screw (41) does not come into contact with the glass, there is a reinforcement part fixing screw channel (42) inside the windproof profile (35). When the system is fully opened and lowered, the movable handrail profile (43) covers other profiles and the spaces between the profiles. Thus, an aesthetic appearance is obtained.
When windproofing is desired on the upper part of the system, the handrail profile (43) can be canceled, and the non-geared puller profile (44) and the "U" profile (46) can be replaced, and the windproofing can be increased in the upper part of the system. The "U" profile side insulating gasket (47) located on the inner side of the "U" profile (46) provides thermal insulation from the side part by pressing the non-geared puller profile (44) and the "U" profile upper insulating gasket (48) provides thermal insulation from the top part by pressing the non-geared puller profile (44) from the top part. The U profile (46) is connected to the engine cover profile (45) from the lower side with u profile screw (49).
This invention can be made with 2 panels without losing the insulation and the ability to clean each side safely from the interior. Figure 15 shows the opened state of the lower panel (3) of a movable panel system consisting of two panels. In the system with two panels, the lower panel (3) can be opened and its outer surface can be wiped. The outer surface of the upper panel (1) can be wiped after all panels are lowered with the help of the engine. In Figure 16, the closed state of the movable panel system consisting of two panels that can be cleaned on each side can be seen. As seen in Figure 17b, only the lower panel (3) can be opened, the upper panel (1) moves up and down from its own channel without distorting its angle. Since there is no middle panel (2), the projection of the middle panel (2) on the rain shield profile (4) remains empty. While the lower panel (3) is opened, it rotates around the rotation bulge (7) with the comfort provided by the rotation gasket (10). The holding protrusion (9) at the end of the rotating profile (6) prevents the lower panel (3) from being opened too much by attaching to the holding bulge (8) on the rain shield profile (4). In the 2-panel system, just like the 3-panel system, the lower panel (3) has the movable truss (17) shown in Figure 15. The movable truss (17) prevents the lower panel (3) from opening too much. Thus, two security mechanisms, which prevent the lower panel (3) from being opened too much, are provided. Since there is no middle panel (2) in the 2-panel system, the extended puller profile (50), which can be seen in Figure 17a, provides the connection between the lower panel (3) and the upper panel (1). The extended puller profile (50) contacts the puller profile (5) located under the upper panel (1) by bypassing the area corresponding to the middle panel (2). Puller bristle brushes (12), which can be seen in Figure 17a, located on the tabs of the puller profile (5) and the extended puller profile (50) provide insulation between the panels when the system is closed. Since the width of the extended puller profile (50) is more than its length, it also has a high resistance to wind load. Due to the structure of the extended puller profile (50), a reinforcement part profile (40) can be placed inside, as seen in Figure 17a, thus its resistance to wind load can be further increased. The extended puller profile cover (51), which can be seen in Figure 18a, is located at the right and left ends of the extended puller profile (50), and when the lower panel (3) is closed, the upper corner insulating gasket (36) located on the extended puller profile (50) presses firmly against the upper corner connecting insulating gasket counterpart (38) located at the lower part of the counterweight holder (33) part. At the same time, the counterweight holder gasket (39) meets the upper corner insulation bristle brush (37). Thus, double-layer thermal insulation is provided. Figure 18b shows the extended puller profile cover (51) in contact with the counterweight holder (33).
Even when the system has 3 panels and the panels do not have equal heights, the present invention provides the opportunity to clean the outer surface of each panel from the interior by opening the lower panel (3) and the middle panel (2). Some users desire the lower panel (3) to have a fixed height. In some cases where the lower panel (3) is at a fixed height, the height of the lower panel (3) may be higher than the height of the middle panel (2) and the upper panel (1). In this case, when the system is turned off, the middle panel (2) and the upper panel (1) must remain fixed at a higher position than the floor in order for the upper part of all panels to be in equal alignment and the handrail profile (43) to cover all panels. The part that will provide this task is the stopper (52) part shown in Figure 22a. The stopper (52) is screwed to the side posts with the screw placed through the stopper screw holes (54) shown in Figure 22a. By means of the stopper rotation bulge (53) located on the stopper (52), the middle panel (2) fitting thereon can be opened by rotating around this rotation bulge (53). In Figure 22b, there is a close-up view of the stopper (52) screwed to the side posts and with the middle panel (2) opened. The area of the middle panel (2) in contact with the stopper (52) is the middle panel lower corner connecting part (30) as seen in Figure 22b. Under the middle panel lower corner coupling piece (30), there is the middle panel lower corner coupling piece recess (55), which corresponds perfectly to the rotation bulge (53) shown in Figure 23a. In Figure 19, the closed state of the movable panel system, which has the lower panel (3) having a height longer than the others, can be seen. In Figure 20, the opened state of the movable panel system, which has the lower panel (3) having a height longer than the others, can be seen. In order to fit the middle panel (2) onto the stopper (52), the rotation bulge (53) of the stopper (52) must be positioned upwards. This situation is seen in Figure 22b. In order to fit the upper panel (1) onto the stopper (52), the rotation bulge (53) must be positioned downwards. Since the lower surface of the stopper (52) does not have a rotation bulge (53), it has a flat surface. Figure 21 shows the view of the movable panel system with its lower panel (3) and middle panel (2) in an open state. Even if the middle panel (2) does not fit onto the rain shield profile (4), it can be opened by the stopper (52) and the rotation bulge (53) of the stopper. To prevent the middle panel (2) from opening too much, there is a holding part (25) shown in Figure 10a. This holding part (25) prevents the middle panel (2) from opening too much when the middle panel (2) is opened by pressing the side post double-channel profile (26) as seen in Figure 11a.
The present invention can also be performed in hinged form without losing the ability to clean every surface from the interior. As seen in Figure 25, it includes at least two hinges (62) that are attached to the rotation profile (6) with at least two screws so that the opened lower panel can rotate easily. These hinges (61) can be fixed to the floor (66) or rain shield profile (4) with at least two screws as shown in Figure 26a and Figure 26b. In Figure 27, the opened form of the lower panel (3) can be seen. As shown in Figure 28a, the middle panel (2) on the horizontal side must have the middle panel horizontal base profile (63) to which at least two hinges (62) can be attached, and the middle panelpanel profile (65) or the middle panel rotation base profile (67) that will serve as a hinge, and the middle panel rotationpanel profile (68). The middle panel (2) must have the middle panel vertical base profile (64) that will press the middle panelpanel profile (65) vertically as seen in Figure 28b. One end of the opening/closing mechanism (18) and the movable truss (17) are connected to the middle panelpanel profile (65) and the other end of the opening/closing mechanism counterpart (24) and the movable truss (17) to the middle panel base profile (63). Thus, as seen in Figure 29, when the middle panel (2) is opened from the lowest or any desired height, the outer surface can be cleaned from the interior.
The opening/closing mechanism arm lower cover (21) shown in Figure 23b is screwed to the opening/closing mechanism profile (28). The opening/closing mechanism arm upper cover (20) is fitted into the opening/closing mechanism arm cover channel (59) and it is connected with the opening/closing mechanism arm lower cover (21). The opening/closing mechanism arm upper cover (20) can be slid up and down on the opening/closing mechanism arm cover channel, but the opening/closing mechanism arm upper cover tab (60) shown in Figure 24a is attached to the opening/closing mechanism arm lower cover stopper (61) shown in Figure 24b, and it does not allow moving upwards further. The lower panel (3) can be opened by rotating 90 degrees by inserting any window arm into the opening/closing mechanism armhole (58) shown in Figure 23b. After the lower panel (3) is closed and the window arm is removed, the upper cover of the opening/closing mechanism arm (20) is slid down as shown in Figure 23c and covers the opening/closing mechanism arm lower cover (21). Thus, when the movable panel system is not opened, an aesthetic appearance that does not damage the appearance is provided.
The present invention can also be used on profiles other than the opening/closing mechanism profile (28) of the opening/closing mechanism (18) without losing the insulation and the ability to clean each side safely from the interior. The opening/closing mechanism can be an espagnolette lock or mortise lock. As seen in Figure 30a and Figure 30b, it can also be used by attaching the opening/closing mechanism arm (69) to the windproof profile (35) on the lower panel (3). The lower panel (3) can be opened by rotating the opening/closing mechanism arm (69). Thus, the outer surface of the lower panel (3) and the outer surface of the middle panel (2) that can be opened later can be cleaned easily and safely. In addition, as seen in Figure 31a and Figure 31b, the opening/closing mechanism lock (70) can be attached to the windproof profile (35) on the lower panel (3). The opening/closing lock (70) can be locked on the counterweight holder piece (33) on the side post and when the lock is unlocked, the lower panel (3) can also be opened. Thus, the outer surface of the lower panel (3) and the outer surface of the middle panel (2) that can be opened later can be cleaned easily and safely. As seen in Figure 32a and Figure 32b, an opening/closing mortise lock (71) can be mounted on the single-channel profile (34).
