Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a curtain wall system .
  • the invention is intended for curtain wall systems with a bearing structure composed of mul lions and transoms mounted in between in the form of aluminium profiles and glazing supports for bearing panels , said glazing supports being intended to be mounted in or on the transoms along the outward facing front side of the curtain wall system .
  • the panels are for example glass panels , but alternatively can also be acrylate panels or panels made from another material .
  • the transoms are provided with an open screw channel , the opening of which extends from the front side over the length of the transoms .
  • the transom is traditionally provided with a hook detail for hooking in the glazing support .
  • the glazing support After assembly, the glazing support will consequently rest on the upper wall of the screw channel , whereas tilting of the glazing support is prevented by a hook detail of the glazing support that engages in the hook detail of the transom .
  • the panels are af fixed by means of a clamping strip which is clamped through the agency of a seal against the outer edge of the panel by means o f screws in the screw channel and whereby the edges of the panel are clamped between seals on the transom and the seals on the clamping strip .
  • the heads of the screws of the clamping strip are subsequently concealed by an ornamental frame which is typically snapped onto the clamping strip .
  • tubular glazing supports are also known, whereby the glazing support is provided with a protruding lip which at the bottom rests on the inside of the screw channel .
  • a disadvantage of these known glaz ing supports is that said glazing supports are not fixedly anchored to the transoms and consequently may shi ft during transport or fall out of the transoms . Furthermore , the position of said glazing supports is not fixed such that they can shi ft laterally during assembly and consequently may be installed in a wrong position .
  • the known curtain wall systems use screw channels with a double function .
  • the screw channels form a support for the glazing supports
  • the screw channels are used for af fixing the clamping strips by means of the aforementioned screws .
  • the screw channels are applied in the front side of the transoms to support the glazing support .
  • the protruding part of the screw channel is part of the profile of the transoms and is thus also made from aluminium, the disadvantage being that this forms a thermal bridge which has a negative influence on the insulation value of the curtain wall system .
  • the purpose of the present invention is to provide a solution to the aforementioned and other disadvantages .
  • the invention relates to a curtain wal l system comprising transoms and mullions in the form of profiles made from aluminium and glazing supports which are intended to be mounted in or on the transoms along the outward facing front side of the curtain wall system, the transom being provided with a channel that extends lengthways from the front side in the profile perpendicular to the front side whereby the channel is provided with at least one groove which extends from the channel in a direction diagonal or perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the channel and whereby the glazing support is executed as a component which from the free end of the transom can be slid into the channel and into the groove in the longitudinal direction of the profile , whereby the glazing support is provided with at least one laterally protruding part which in mounted condition engages in said groove .
  • the groove in the channel and the cooperating laterally protruding part of the glazing support ensures that the glazing support cannot fall out of the transom from the front side , for example , during transport .
  • the glazing support according to the invention is not resting on the upperside of the channel , the total height of the glazing support and the channel can be restricted such that less space is used between the panels which simpli fies installation of the panels and which also means greater tolerances of the panels are possible .
  • the glazing supports can be mounted in the transoms prior to the transport . Indeed, the glazing supports cannot fall out of the transoms , but thanks to the locking means said glazing supports will also not unintentionally shi ft such that their pos ition remains guaranteed .
  • the upper panel 17 in this figure is borne by the shown glazing support 4 .
  • the panels 17 are af fixed all around by means of clamping strips 18 which through the agency of a seal 13 are clamped against the outer edge of the panel 17 by means of screws in such a way that the edges of the panel 17 are clamped between the aforementioned seals 13 on the transom 2 and the seals 13 on the clamping strip 18 .
  • the seals 13 ensure a waterproof and windproof seal of the curtain wall 1 .
  • the assembly of the glazing support 4 or glazing supports 4 in a relevant transom 2 is executed by sliding during the assembly along one end of the transom 2 while at least one free end of the channel 7 of the transom 2 is still open .
