DESCRIPTION

Frame beam, frame provided therewith as a procedure for fastening a similar frame beam

The invention relates to a frame beam for fastening to a wall according to the preamble of the attached claim 1, a frame provided therewith as well as a method for fastening a similar frame beam.

The frames serve for the retention of a door leaf in a door opening of a wall. For this, the frames generally have at least three frame stringers that are connected to each other so that two frame stringers are arranged to be arranged vertically and parallel to each other and a horizontal frame frame stringer that joins each other in cross direction both vertical frame stringers. The door leaf is suspended in one of the frame beams to be arranged vertically by means of door hinges. In addition, many frames have a recess that is configured as a step and signals in the direction of the door leaf, to form a stop surface for the door leaf in the closed state.

The frames can be made up of wood or steel, being steel in the majority of cases the frames available in the market. On these steel frames or metal frames the main attention is given here.

The frames can be held differently in a jamb on a wall. Depending on the reality to be found, different clamping devices are used. The majority of the times the fastening of the frame beams in the jamb of the wall is carried out with fastening by screws.

For this, the frame stringers as a rule have openings, through which a fastening means is carried by screw and connected to the wall jamb. For fixing the fastening means by screw with the wall jamb, holes are drilled in the jamb and provided with plugs. Next, the frame stringer is positioned with its holes in front of the drilled holes so that a screw can be introduced through the opening of the frame stringer and screwed into the hole.

A problem is represented by the openings for passage through a screw clamping means, which affect the visual appearance.

In document DE 10 2007 024 994 A1 a frame stringer is disclosed, in which jamb area an opening is made to pass through a screw clamping means. To close the opening a plug is provided, which is inserted into the opening.

To ensure sufficient stability due to the weight of the door leaf and a constant request for opening and closing it, it is preferably to position the screw fastening means as close as possible to the door hinges. In addition, the screw fastening means must be positioned close to the wall of the recess, to ensure sufficient stability for the stop surface of the door leaf.

The problem of providing a frame beam for secure attachment in a jamb area, with a visually high quality appearance, is therefore based on the invention.

This problem is solved by a frame beam with the characteristics of the attached claim 1.

A frame having at least one similar frame member as well as a method for securing a similar frame member is subject to the secondary claims.

Advantageous configurations of the invention are subject to the dependent claims.

The invention proposes a frame stringer that is attached in a jamb area of a door opening in a wall and is provided with an opening for the passage and / or for access to a fastener to be introduced in the jamb area , and a closure cap to close the opening. The closure cap has a cover and a fastening area. The opening for the passage through a fastening element is configured so that a secure fastening of the frame beam in a wall is possible. In addition, a simple disassembly of the frame beam is guaranteed.

The closure cap allows an advantageous closure of the opening, so that a visually pleasing appearance of the frame beam is guaranteed. In addition, the closure cap provides that the space in the frame gap does not get dirty.

The opening has a continuous edge, the edge being arranged in a cavity for the total housing of the lid. The holding area grips the edge of the cavity. A similar frame beam is distinguished by its visually pleasing appearance, since the openings provided for passage through an element of

fastener can be closed by means of a closure cap. Consequently, the frame stringer in the assembled state no longer has any openings that affect the visual appearance.

The openings closed with the closure cap can advantageously be overpainted, over-varnished or oversized. Especially preferred is the cavity so that the overpainted or oversized can be made on the lid, so that after this it is no longer recognizable in any way that there is an opening.

In an advantageous configuration the frame beam is formed of a metal profile, in particular of a steel profile, which has at least one bend.

The bending configured in the metal profile advantageously provides a stop for the door leaf installed in the frame stringer.

Apart from this, a long frame durability is guaranteed by means of a frame beam of a metal profile, as well as sufficient stability to hold a door leaf.

Advantageously, the opening is positioned adjacent to the bending. In this way a fastening means can be introduced and positioned close to bending. Consequently, sufficient stability is provided, since a large force effect on the frame member acts in the stop zone of the door leaf during the closing process. Also frequently in the stop zone are the door hinges for fastening the door leaf to the frame member, so that high stability must also be provided. Consequently, it is advantageous for the fastening means to be positioned as close as possible to the bending.

The frame beam is advantageously configured so that the cavity is practiced on one side away from the wall. This gives easy accessibility to insert the closure cap.

Advantageously, the cavity is formed by ejection of material inwards, in particular by die cutting. A similar manufacturing process makes it possible to prepare the favorable cost cavity. In addition, the material displaced inwardly can configure a rib surrounding the opening, which serves as a contact surface for the closure cap.

In another advantageous configuration of the invention, the development of the cavity pen at least on one side presents a flattening.

The flattening allows a positioning of the cavity close to bending.

Consequently, as already mentioned, a fastening means can be introduced close to bending, so that sufficient stability is achieved as well as fixing the frame beam on a wall.

Advantageously, the development of the cavity penimeter on at least two opposite sides presents a flattening. A similar cavity is distinguished by the possibility of positioning the opening near the bent. Consequently, the cavity has the aforementioned advantages. Accordingly, covers with two flattening can be manufactured, which, on one or both sides, can be positioned very close to the bends. Accordingly, the cavities are configured.

Advantageously, the holding area is configured to grab behind the opening. This ensures a more fixed adjustment of the closure plug in the opening, so that it cannot fall out of the opening. The development of the lid penimeter is advantageously configured corresponding to the development of the cavity penimeter. Consequently, the closure cap can be inserted into the opening with shape adjustment.

Between the closure cap and the cavity, only a small set is provided, so that there is only a small slit, which visually does not disturb and also easily overpainted or over-plated / plaster with only a small expense of material can be made completely invisible.

Advantageously, the closure cap for closing the opening rests on the edge so that the lid forms an in-depth plane with respect to a surface of the frame stringer jamb that can be moved away from the wall. The in-depth plane allows the application of a covering layer on the closure cap, to provide a flat surface with the frame stringer surface. Consequently, on one hand, the cracks between the frame beam and the plug can be coated and on the other hand a flat smooth surface can be provided, so that a visually pleasing appearance is produced.

In addition, the invention proposes a frame that is configured for fastening in a jamb area of a door opening in a wall, which comprises at least one frame stringer that concerns the invention. A similar frame takes advantage of the advantages of the frame beam mentioned above.

In another advantageous configuration the frame is a U-frame or an E-frame. A U-frame enables an advantageous coating of a jamb in a wall. An E-frame occupies only one corner area and is correspondingly thin with only little room for openings.

The configuration of the cavity according to the invention is advantageous for both types of frame. In a preferred refinement, a strategy of equal parts is possible (equal closure caps for U and E frames)

Examples of embodiment of the invention are explained in detail below with the help of the drawings. Here they show:

Figure 16 an enlarged representation of an inserted closure cap; and Figure 17 an enlarged representation of an oversized closure cap.

Figure 1 shows a cross-section through a frame member 10 of a U-frame 1, which is installed in a wall jamb 4. The frame member 10 comprises a metal profile 12 and a back plate 13.

The metal profile 12 can be divided into three zones, namely, on a bridge 14, a left wing 15 and a right wing 16. Bridge 14 comprises a jamb zone 17 and a bending zone 18.

In the jamb zone 17 two openings 20 are made. At one end of the jamb zone 17 the right wing 16 joins.

At the other end of the jamb zone 17 the bending zone 18 is arranged, which from the jamb zone 17 becomes a U-shaped bent 22. A vertical section 23 is attached to the U-shaped bent 22, followed by a folded 24 in the form of a staircase, which becomes a horizontal section 25. To the horizontal section 25 a projection 26 is attached, which borders the left wing 15.

Both the left wing 15 and the right wing 16 have at their ends a bent edge area 28, which serves to join the back plate 13 with the metal profile 12. Aqrn the back plate 13 is either glued, or welded, or welded to the 12 metal profile with soft welding. Holes 30 are made in the back plate 13, which are used to hold the frame member 10 in the wall jamb 4 by means of fastening means 31.

As can be seen in Figures 2 and 3, the openings 20 made in the jamb area 17 comprise a continuous edge 29, which is arranged in a cavity 33 and is provided with an opening 34 arranged in the center. He

continuous edge 29 is shaped so that it has two flattening 36 and two curved zones, in particular circular zones 37.

As shown in Figures 4, 5, 6 and 7, the openings 20 are formed by die-cutting, in particular by ejection of material inwards, in the jamb area 17 of the bridge 14, being formed on one side of the bridge 14 which a flange 35 that surrounds the opening 34 can be directed towards the wall.

To close the opening 20, a closure cap 40 shown in Figures 8, 9, 10 and 11 is used. The closure cap 40 comprises a cover 42, which corresponds to the development of the continuous edge penimeter 29 of the cavity 33, and a holding area 44, which is configured as a hollow cylinder with a wrapping surface that develops convex. The closure cap 40 is inserted into the opening 20 so that the lid 42 of the closure cap 40 comes to rest on the continuous edge 29 of the cavity 33 and at the same time the fastening area 44 with its convex development grabs behind the flange 35 that surrounds the opening 34. In this way a union with forced adjustment is achieved between the closure cap 40 and the opening 20. Therefore, a frame stringer 10 is provided which has a visually pleasing outward direction. .

For the fastening of the frame stringer 10 in the wall jamb 4 first, drills are made in the wall jamb 4. Next, the frame stringer 10 is positioned with its holes 30 aligned in front of the drills. In the next step, fastening means 31 are inserted through the openings 34 in the holes 30 of the back plate 13 and joined with the wall jamb 4. Finally, the openings 20 are closed with the closure plug 40.

The closure plugs 40 relative to one side of the jamb area 17 of the bridge 14 which faces in the opposite direction to the wall are arranged displaced in the direction of the wall. To form a uniform plane of inserted closure plugs 40 and the jamb area 17, as shown in Figures 16 and 17, is applied or a covering layer and then an enamel layer or only an enamel layer. Consequently, on the one hand, the slits that are possibly existing between the opening 20 and the closing cap 40 are covered and, on the other hand, a visually pleasing frame frame surface 10 is provided.

In another embodiment according to Figures 12, 13, 14 and 15, the frame is configured as an E 50 frame. The E 50 frame comprises a metal profile 52 and a back plate 54. The metal profile 52 of the E 50 frame It differs from that of the U-1 frame in that a bridge 56 is shorter than bridge 14 and only has an opening 20. In addition, a shorter right wing 58 is configured. The back plate 54 is held between an outer surface 59 of the right wing 58 and a contact surface 60 of the bending area 18 of the bridge 56. Such frames are found primarily in corner areas of a wall jamb.

Advantageously, the frame member 10 according to the invention distinguishes itself by means of flattening 36 of the continuous edge 29, the opening 34 for passing through a fastening means 31 can be positioned close to the bending area 18. The bending area 18 serves before all as a stop surface for a door leaf. Also in the bending area 18, door hinges are placed for the fastening of a door leaf in the frame member 10. Consequently, large forces are produced in this area, so that high stability must be provided.

This is taken into consideration by positioning as close as possible to the fastening means to the bending area 18 with the help of the geometric configuration of the continuous edge 29. In addition, the closure plug 40 provides a visually pleasing appearance, since the openings 20 can be closed with this. Outside of this, a similar opening can be made at a favorable cost for the expulsion of material inwards, in particular by punching.
