Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a roof window, particularly for installation in or on a roof surface having an inclination, comprising a primary frame, at least one secondary frame, such as a sash and/or an intermediate frame, and a lifting device comprising an adjustment system comprised in a sledge, the lifting device further comprising a spring assembly configured to be coupled to the sledge, and a linkage system being rotatably connected to the sledge through the adjustment system and connected to the secondary frame, wherein the linkage system comprises a lifting arm with a first end rotatably connected to the adjustment system, and the adjustment system is adapted to move the first end of the lifting arm upon activation of the adjustment system.
  • Windows for installation in an inclined roof surface may be provided in a number of varieties and include more or less complicated operational structures to allow opening of the sash and to fulfil other functions, such as ventilation.
  • Such roof windows include the type hinged at or near the centre, the top-hinged type, and finally the roof windows that are top-hinged during normal operation but in which the sash is able to perform a rotating movement substantially at a centre axis, either for cleaning or for providing an alternative manner of operation.
  • Roof windows of the top-hinged type have a first hinge axis provided by a top hinge arrangement to provide a first operational condition, whereas rotation of the sash in a second operational condition is performed by means of an intermediate frame in which the sash is hinged to provide a secondary hinge axis.
  • one hinge of the hinge arrangement will be located at either side of the roof window to define a substantially horizontal hinge axis.
  • top-hinged windows with a second operational condition are for instance disclosed in Applicant's WO-A-89/10460 , EP 0 733146 B1 , EP 1 873 323 B1 , EP 2 762 665 A2 , and WO 2019101281 A1 .
  • the sash structure is connected with an intermediate frame with frame arms, which in the closed position of the window are positioned between the upper parts of the frame and sash side members, and which during normal use of the window as a top-hung window follow the sash side members.
  • the opening of a roof window and the force required to operate the window is affected by the inclination of the roof in which the window is installed.
  • Such a lifting device is for instance disclosed in the Applicant's WO2019/101281 A1 where a spring assembly acts as a force balancing element to the pane-carrying frame by operating on a lifting arm attached to the frame.
  • a roof window of the kind mentioned in the introduction which is further characterised in that the sledge is slidably connected to the primary frame in a sledge guide.
  • This arrangement provides an alternative connection of the linkage system to the sledge and a versatile solution for adjusting to different roof inclinations. Furthermore, the linkage system has a simple structure which may minimize the cost of manufacturing and allow easy installation and assembly of the system.
  • the adjustment system comprises an adjustment screw and an adjustment bushing, and wherein the first end of the lifting arm is connected to the adjustment screw via the adjustment bushing.
  • the adjustment system provides a mechanism for adjusting the balance between the weight of the pane-carrying sash with the force provided by the spring assembly.
  • the weight of the pane-carrying sash is at least partially carried by the lifting arm when the roof window is in an open position and the lifting arm is arranged such that the weight of the pane-carrying sash acts as a pulling force on the spring in the spring assembly.
  • the stretched spring provides a spring force towards the equilibrium position of the spring which forces the pane-carrying sash towards an open position.
  • the weight carried by the lifting arm depends on the roof inclination of the roof in which the roof window is installed.
  • the balance between the spring force and the force from the weight of pane-carrying sash acting on the lifting arm may therefore change when the roof inclination is changed.
  • the adjustment system is arranged to adjust the balance between the force exerted by the lifting arm on the pane-carrying sash and the weight of the pane-carrying sash.
  • the adjustment system may be adjusted to balance roof window for roof inclinations in the range of 15 - 65°.
  • the adjustment screw acts as a connecting link between one or more elements of the roof window, where one element is the lifting arm, allowing the connected elements to be moved relative to each other when the adjustment screw is adjusted.
  • the adjustment screw comprises an adjustment screw shaft, an adjustment screw head, and an adjustment screw top.
  • the adjustment screw is connected to the lifting arm via the adjustment screw top and the adjustment screw is thereby stationary relative to the lifting arm when the adjustment screw is adjusted.
  • one or more elements of the roof window are connected to the adjustment screw shaft.
  • the position of the one or more elements on the adjustment screw shaft is arranged to be adjusted when the adjustment screw is manipulated.
  • the adjustment screw head is arranged to be manipulated by an external force such as the force from a screw bit in order to rotate the adjustment screw.
  • the one or more elements connected to the adjustment screw shaft is arranged to be moved relative to the lifting arm. This arrangement changes the balance between the weight of the pane-carrying frame and the force exerted by the lifting arm on the pane-carrying frame from the pull of the spring assembly.
  • a roof window 100 is shown.
  • the roof window 100 is intended to be installed in or on an inclined roof surface (not shown).
  • the roof window 100 comprises a primary frame 1, a secondary frame which in the following will be referred to as a sash 2 but which could also include an intermediate frame connected partly to the primary frame 1, partly to a separate, glass-carrying unit functioning as a sash, and a pane 4.
  • the roof window comprises a windowpane comprising at least two layers of glass, preferably at least three layers of glass.
  • the window may comprise an Insulating Glazing Unit (IGU).
  • IGU Insulating Glazing Unit
  • the primary frame 1 comprises a set of frame members including a top frame member, two side frame members and a bottom frame member.
  • the sash 2 comprises a set of sash members including a top sash member, two side sash members and a bottom sash member. While the primary frame 1 and sash 2 are described as rectangular structures, some principles of the presented concepts may be applicable to other geometrical shapes as well.
  • the pane 4 comprises a number of edge portions generally associated to members of the sash 2.
  • An exterior pane surface 4e defines a plane of the roof window 100 in an assembled condition of the roof window 100.
  • the assembled condition of the roof window 100 is achieved when main components of the primary frame 1 and sash 2 have been assembled and the primary frame 1 and sash 2 are connected to each other, for instance in an installed position when the roof window 100 is ready for use.
  • an assembled condition of the sash 2 is achieved once main components of the sash 2 have been assembled, and an assembled condition of the primary frame 1 when main components of the primary frame 1 are assembled.
  • main components is to be understood as encompassing primary parts of the roof window necessary to perform all operational functions, and not including accessories or auxiliary equipment.
  • An interior pane surface 4i faces the interior, typically a room of a building subjacent the roof surface in which the roof window 100 is installed.
  • the sash 2 is openable relative to the primary frame 1, to obtain one or more open positions. In such open positions, the sash 2 and pane 4 are moved out of the plane of the roof window 1.
  • the sash 2 is shown as being top-hung, i.e. during normal use, the sash 2 is rotated about a substantially horizontal hinge axis at or near the top frame member and top sash member at the top of the roof window 100. It is however conceivable to apply some principles of the presented concepts for roof windows on different types of windows having other opening patterns.
  • FIG 1A Further details shown in Fig 1A include an operating assembly 5, here shown as a handle. Other operating assemblies may be present as well.
  • a representative mounting bracket forming part of a plurality of mounting brackets forming a load-transferring connection between the roof window 100 and a surrounding roof structure (not shown).
  • a roof structure may include rafters and battens, plywood or other construction materials.
  • An insulating frame 7 is shown. Insulation by an insulating frame is optional and may be provided along only some of the frame members or as shown surrounding all four frame members.
  • Fig. 1C shows a top-hung roof window 100.
  • the roof window is top-hung, i.e., hinged at the top, by means of a hinge assembly (not shown) connecting the primary frame with the secondary frame.
  • the hinge assembly is configured in such a way that it allows the sash 2 to be top-hung in a first operational condition corresponding to normal use. That is, during normal use the sash 2 is rotated about a substantially horizontal first hinge axis at or near the top frame member and top sash member between a closed position and an open position.
  • the lifting device 10 comprises a lifting arm 14 inserted between the primary frame 1 and the at least one secondary frame, here the sash 2.
  • the lifting arm 14 comprises a first end 14a and a second end 14b (cf. Fig. 7 ).
  • the roof window 100 in Fig. 1C is shown with one lifting device 10 arranged between a side member of primary frame 1 and a side member of the sash 2.
  • the roof window also comprises a second lifting device between the other sash side member and frame side member.
  • a lifting device on each side ensures better support of the windowpane, improves the handling of the roof window and reduces the forces required in each lifting device.
  • the lifting device 10 is shown in greater details in Fig. 2 .
  • the sledge 30 of the lifting device 10 comprises an adjustment system 50.
  • the adjustment system slides with the sledge in the sledge guide 16. It is conceivable that the sledge may be exchanged with a sledge of a different kind comprising a different adjustment system.
  • the lifting device can in this way be tailored for specific requirements.
  • the sledge 30 is attached to a spring assembly 20 which is arranged to exert a force on the sledge 30.
  • the sledge 30 may be uncoupled from the spring assembly 20. This may, as an example, be an advantage during installation of the roof window where a spring force acting on the sledge 30 may make it difficult to handle the roof window.
  • the sledge 30 and the spring assembly 20 are initially in an uncoupled state.
  • the spring assembly 20 and the sledge 30 are then coupled by opening the roof window resulting in the sledge 30 sliding towards a coupling device such as a hook attached to a spring comprised in the spring assembly 20.
  • the pulling force of the spring and the weight of the roof window are preferably balanced such that the roof window can be positioned in an open position without closing due to its own weight or opening further due to the pull from the spring in the spring assembly. This balance is also influenced by the inclination of the roof that the roof window is installed in.
  • the spring in the spring assembly 30 may be adjusted to balance the roof window in a specific roof inclination.
  • the spring force acting on the sledge will not be balanced to the weight of the movable parts of the roof window.
  • the spring may exert too much force on the window thereby forcing the window to open further.
  • the spring may be too weak, and the window will close due to its own weight. In both cases, the window is difficult for the user to operate and potentially hazardous.
  • the adjustment system 50 provides a way to easily adjust the roof window according to a roof inclination in the range of 15 - 65°.
  • the adjustment system 50 is adapted to move the first end 14a of the lifting arm 14 upon activation of the adjustment system. Preferably, this movement is in a height direction H which is substantially perpendicular to the sliding direction. Moving the first end 14a of the lifting arm 14 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the sliding direction has the effect of changing the height position of the first end 14a of the lifting device 14 in the sledge guide.
  • the first end 14a of the lifting arm 14 holds this height position until the adjustment system 50 is activated again, but the lifting arm 14 is still capable of sliding in the sledge guide 16 via the sledge 30 regardless of the height position of the first end 14a of the lifting arm 14 within the meaning of the adjustment range of the adjustment system 50.
  • the adjustment system 50 preferably comprises an adjustment screw 51 and an adjustment bushing 54 as shown in Fig. 3 .
  • the adjustment screw 51 may be fastened to the sledge 30 by means of an adjustment base 56. Additionally and/or alternatively, the adjustment screw 51 penetrates the sledge 30 and sledge guide 16, as shown in Fig. 2 and 3 .
  • the sledge guide 16 comprises a track 43 configured for the adjustment screw 51, such as shown in Fig. 3 .
  • the adjustment screw 51 may be accommodated in an opening 15 in the sledge 30 such as shown in Figs 2 and 6 .
  • the adjustment screw is configured along the opening 15 and the adjustment bushing 54 is configured to move in the opening 15.
  • the adjustment screw 51 is accommodated on the sledge 30 such as on an extrusion of the sledge 30, as shown in Fig. 3 .
  • the lifting arm 14 may be connected to the adjustment bushing 54 via an adjustment arm 52.
  • the lifting arm 14 may be connected directly to the adjustment bushing 54.
  • the adjustment arm 52 is preferably rotationally fixed at a first end to the sledge 30, rotationally fixed at a second end to the lifting arm 14, and connected to the adjustment bushing 54 at a point between the first and second end.
  • the adjustment arm 52 may be elongate in shape. It may alternatively have a small angle giving it a hockey stick shape.
  • the adjustment arm 52 may comprise a first adjustment arm 521 and a second adjustment arm 522 configured on opposite sides of the sledge 30.
  • the lifting arm 14 has a first end 14a, which is rotatably connected to the sledge 30.
  • the lifting arm 14 is comprised in a linkage system 19 which connects the primary frame 1 with the secondary frame 2.
  • the lifting arm 14 is generally elongate in shape. It may have a bend giving it the general shape of a hockey stick.
  • the lifting arm 14 comprised in the linkage system 19 is rotationally fixed to the secondary frame 2 via a rivet and/or axle 41.
  • the lifting arm 14 extends from the sledge 30 in the sledge guide 16 of the primary frame 1 to the secondary frame 2, as shown in Figs 4 and 5 .
  • the linkage system 19 comprises an intermediate arm 45.
  • the intermediate 45 is generally elongated with a first end, a second end and a middle portion.
  • the intermediate arm is connected at a first point to the sledge guide 16. This first point may be at a first end of the intermediate arm 45.
  • the intermediate arm is connected at a second point to the lifting arm 14.
  • this second point is at an opposite end of the intermediate arm 45 compared to the first point.
  • the intermediate arm 45 is connected to the lifting arm 14 at a point between the first end 14a and a second end 14b of the lifting arm 14.
