Description

Closure device, at least double-tapped, in particular for

  The present invention relates to closure devices, at least double-strike, in particular for

  windows, French windows or doors, mainly

  stowed by a frame and at least one opening, made by means of profiled elements, if necessary reinforced

  by elements of reinforcing profiles.

  It is known that the sealing of the multi-hit closure devices currently known is achieved by means of rubber seals or a similar material, partly fixed on the frame and partly

  on the opening of the window, French window or door

  flabbergasted. In the case, for example, of double-striking closure devices, it is carried out by means of

  two compression joints, one of which, inside, is

  placed in the opening and the other, outside, in the

  mant. With regard to the known triple-tap closure devices, the seal is achieved by means of two inner seals fixed on the sash and

  an optional outer seal fixed to the frame.

  However, when opening the window,

  window or door, the establishment of one or more joints in the frame has the major disadvantage of making them very vulnerable because of their arrangement in an exposed area. Indeed, during the installation

  sleepers or during repair work, projec-

  mortar or plaster may deteriorate

  these joints. In addition, their arrangement in a place of passage (the frame) inevitably causes their damage by deformation or tearing during the

passage of people or objects.

  For the most sophisticated existing systems capable of receiving the same glazing beads in the opening and in the frame, the rebates of the frame and the counter-rebates of the openings are simply reversed, hence important functional concessions, namely, reduced overlap surfaces, because of the need to have between the frame and the door with a clearance of 12 mm for the fitting of the fittings, and a practical impossibility to quickly clean the

  concerned, because of the presence of many

  its grooves and fixing ribs, especially on the

mant.

  The problem posed by the present invention

  is therefore to design a closure device, at least double-strike, allowing, on the one hand, the implementation

  place all the joints on the opening and, in particular,

  the outer seal, and, on the other hand, the installation of glazing on both the frame and the sash,

  using the same fasteners and

  as well as the same profile for the realization of the

  dormant and opening it and without it being necessary

  not to invert the cuts when cutting the different profile elements, or to switch the frames

  welded sashes or frames to deburring.

  This problem is precisely solved thanks to

  closing device, at least double-tapped, in particular

  for windows, French windows and doors

  consisting of a frame and at least one opening, made by means of profiled elements, where appropriate

  reinforced by reinforcing profile elements,

  characterized in that the profile elements 9 of the openings 1, 1 'comprise, at their outer covering surfaces 7 with the profile elements 10 of the frame 2, fastening means 3 of at least one

attached 5.

  The invention will be better understood, thanks to the

  description below, which relates to a method of

  preferred embodiment, given by way of non-limiting example, and explained with reference to the attached schematic drawings, in which: Figure 1 is a top view in section of a frame and a double-sided opening in accordance with the known state of the art; Figure 2 is a top view and in section of an opening and a triple knockdown frame according to the state of the art; Figure 3 is a top view in section of a frame and an opening provided with the device according to the invention; Figure 4 is a top view and in section of a frame and an opening from the same profile and provided with the device according to the invention; FIG. 5 is a view from above and in section

  of an opening and a frame shown in Figure 4 and

  lined by a support profile; FIG. 6 is a view from above and in section

  of an opening and a frame shown in Figure 4 and

  lined by a sliding shutters; FIG. 7 is a view from above and in section

  of an opening and a frame shown in Figure 4 and

  along a widening member, and Figure 8 is a top view and in section

  mullions of two opening windows equipped with

tif according to the invention.

  According to the invention, the device of

  closure is characterized in that the elements of

  9 of the doors 1, 1 'have, at their outer covering surfaces 7 with the elements -profile 10 of the frame 2, fastening means 3 of the

minus one gasket 5.

  The fastening means 3 may, of course, be in the most various forms, namely, complementary parts or profiles, ribs, grooves, etc., and may be implemented according to different modes of attachment. such as, for example,

  collage, coextrusion, clipping, etc ...

  In addition, because of the many different forms of existing seals, such as, for example, lip seals, tubular seals, foam seals, hollow or solid seals, etc., the securing means 3 may

  be arranged in very different ways, namely in

  frontal, lateral or oblique position.

  In the rest of the description, we will limit ourselves

  example of a closing device according to the

  applied to a frame 2 equipped with two doors 1

  and 1 '; but, of course, such a closure device

  re, whose other characteristics are developed further, is also applicable to a frame 2 provided with one or more two openings 1, 1 'according to a feature of the invention, and as shown in Figure 3 of the accompanying drawings , the fastening means 3 are in the form of a groove 3 allowing, in particular, the attachment of a seal 5 to the openings 1, 1 '. As also shown in FIG. 3 of the accompanying drawings, the profiled elements forming the dormant 2 comprise, in addition, each, at the level of

  their external covering surfaces 7 'with the elements

  9 of the doors 1, 1 'and in close proximity

  mediate the groove 3, also a groove 11 of

  to allow either the attachment of a seal 19 on the frame 2, or the attachment of the seal 5 on the openings

1, 1 '.

  Thus, according to the invention, it is pos-

  sible to achieve the closure device, either with an outer seal 19 on the frame 2, or with an outer seal 5 on the opening 1, 1 ', according to the wishes of the user or according to manufacturing constraints

or construction.

  Moreover, when the doors 1, 1 'are in

  closed position, that is to say when the two grooves 3 and 11 are in close proximity to one another, their configuration and positioning are such that, firstly, in the case of the setting in place of a seal 19 in the groove 11, it leans on the wall 27 of the profile 9 of the opening 1 or 1 'above the groove 3 and that, secondly, in the case of the establishment of a seal 5 in the groove 3, it is supported on the wall 28 of the profile 10 of the frame 2, below the

groove 11.

  In the particular case of a

  double strike, the inner seal 6 is, for example, a compression lip seal, fixed on the profile elements 9 of the openings 1, 1 'by means of the

  groove 4, thus ensuring the sealing at the level of

  cover faces 8 and 8 ', respectively

  9 of the opening elements 1, 1 'and elements of

  profile 10 of the frame 2. Thus, a decompression chamber

  29 is made between the frame 2 and the openings

1, 1 '.

  For multi-tap closure devices

  tiple, for example with a triple strike, 'the establishment of

  joints on the opening 1, 1 'at all the surfaces

  these covering the profile elements of said opening

  1, 1 'with the profile elements of the frame 2 and,

  - in accordance with the invention, the establishment of the

  outer seal 5 on the opening 1, 1 ', allows delimitation

  several decompression chambers 29,

and independent.

  The establishment of all the joints 5, 6 of the closure device on the opening 1, 1 'can significantly facilitate the production of dormant 2, being reminded that it is normally significantly more difficult to achieve than that opening, because of

  larger dimensions of the constituent elements.

  According to another characteristic of the invention, the outer seal 5 disposed in the groove

  3 is, for example, a tubular compression joint.

  Such a tubular seal 5 has the advantage, on the one hand, of providing a large contact surface at the frame 2 of o excellent sealing and,

  on the other hand, to easily withstand

  load bearing and variable compressions, allowing in certain cases to make up for the defects of parallelism

  may occur between the opening 1, 1 'and the frame 2.

  As further shown in Figure 3 of the accompanying drawings, the groove 11 of the frame 2 is delimited in its upper part by an outer flange 12, thus protecting the seal 5 disposed in the groove 3 of the openings 1, 1 'The outer flange 12 therefore substantially covers the seal 5 and, in particular, the contact surface of

  this one with the frame 2, that is to say the place pre-

  cis o determines the quality of the seal between the frame 2 and the opening 1, 1 'Moreover, because of its configuration, the outer wing 12' prevents, on the one hand, the penetration of virtually any object in the groove 11 and, in other

  on the other hand, direct external access to joint 5 and,

  end, the direct exposure of said seal 5 to the weather or solar radiation that could, over time,

  harden the outer shell of said gasket 5 and thereby

  compromise the watertightness at the level of the

  mant 2 / opening 1, 1 'According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the rabbets 13', 13, respectively of the frame 2 and the openings 1, 1 ', advantageously have an identical configuration, namely an internal groove

  14 for the attachment of glazing beads 18, a surface of

  glazing port 17, a collection groove 16 for infiltration water and a groove 11 for fixing a seal 19, said identical configuration permitting, in addition to the fixing of a glazing 17, that of glazing beads 18 and joints 19 glazing, either on the opening 1, 1 'in the case of windows, French windows or doors, or on the frame 2 in the case of windows,

French windows or fixed doors.

  As a result, it is easy to

  inventory management, as well as a rationalization of the

  of the various fastening elements 18, 19 of

  17, and thus lower production costs.

ble.

  With a view to further rationalizing

  production of dormant 2 and doors 1, 1 'and as

  shown in FIG. 4 of the accompanying drawings, the profile 10

  dormant 2 is strictly identical to that

  9 constituting the opening 1, 1 ', without the elements

  compared to those constituting the opening 1, 1 ',

  1, 1 'are then provided with the same profiling profile.

  The use of the same profile 9 for the realization

  sation of the openings 1, 1 'and the frame 2, without the profile elements 9 of the frame 2 and the sash 1 or

  Thus, the covering surfaces 7, 7 'and 8, 8' are no longer, in such a case, limited by

  the standardized dimensions of the rabbets 13, and in particular

by the height of these.

  It is then possible, in accordance with

  5 and 6 of the accompanying drawings, to extend the profile elements 9 constituting the frame 2, either by at least one slide 22 of the shutter, or by at least one element of the invention. support profile 23, either by at least one expanding element 24 or by at least one tap, said elements being fixed to the frame 2 to

  means of a fastening wing 21 engaging in the rai-

nure 3 of said frame 2.

  The frame 2 is very easily adjustable,

  and its configuration adapts to the wishes of the user.

  without using additional fastening means

  to extend the frame 2, in particular

  by extension elements 22, 23 or 24.

  The clipping link of said wing of

  21 with the groove 3 of the frame 2, can be

  tended to be reinforced by bonding surfaces in

  tact. In the case where, as shown in Figure 8 of the accompanying drawings, the frame 2 is provided with two openings 1 and 1 ', it is also possible to implement the closure device according to the invention, at the surfaces covering the two openings 1 and 1 ', making the relevant side of the opening 1' in a corresponding profile 25 and providing it with a profile

  flap 26 having a groove 11 and an outer flange

  12 identical to those of the profile 9 of the frame 2

  and the opening 1, the two sections 9 and 25 being for-

  seen from the same reinforcement section 20.

  According to an additional characteristic

  of the invention, the sections 9, 10 constituting the frame 2 and the openings 1, 1 'are advantageously

  polyvinyl chloride. They are, therefore, practically

  imputrescible and very insensitive to variations

  temperature or hygrometry.

  Moreover, by assembling said profile elements together, by thermal welding of the ends

  corresponding, to realize a frame 2 or

  1, 1 ', we make the latter 2, 1 and 1 perfect.

  watertight. Thus, the reinforcing section 20 may advantageously be made of steel, no corrosion being able in this case to occur.

  Compared with closing devices con-

  forms in the state of the art, of which FIG. 1 of the attached drawings shows a double-tap example and FIG. 2-a triple-tap example, the device according to the invention has the following advantages, namely, On the one hand, the possibility of having all

  seals 5, 6 on the sashes 1, 1 ', particularly

  the outer seal 5 and, on the other hand, the possibility

  to realize the frame 2 and the doors 1, 1 'in

  a single section 9, thus rendering said frame 2 modu-

  lable, without however covering surfaces

  7, 7 'and 8, 8' are reduced.

  Of course, the invention is not limited to

  embodiment described and shown in the drawings

  the accompanying. Modifications remain. possible, in particular from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without leaving

  for all that the field of protection of the invention.
