Abstract

A brush sealing fitment for the lower edge of a door and which is fitted into a rebate in the bottom of the door. The height of the brush seal can be altered by virtue of a toothed track 8 which locates the seal at selected different heights. <IMAGE>

Description

DRAUGHT SEALING DEVICES FOR DOORS The present invention relates to draught sealing devices for doors.
Various kinds of draught sealing device are known for doors, some of which are arranged to be screwed on a front lower face edge of the door, while others are rebated into the door frame so as to be virtually invisible in use.
The present invention is concerned with the rebated kind of door seal where a fitment including a brush or other flexible compression strip for sealing with the floor or other surface below the door is arranged to fit accurately within a previously cut rebate in the door frame.
The problem with this kind of arrangement is that the fitment has to be very accurate in order to ensure that the sealing strip extends the correct amount below the door in order to provide the appropriate sealing.
The present invention solves this problem by allowing for adjustment of the fitment to enable the sealing strip to locate at different levels below the door. Thus, the door rebate can be cut, the door can be hung, and subsequently when fitting the seal fitment, the amount of extension of the sealing strip can be adjusted prior to final securing of the arrangement.
Accordingly the present invention provides a draught sealing fitment for a door comprising a pair of ends caps to fit at opposing lower end edges of a door, an outer elongate carrier frame to locate with each of said end caps and fit within a rebate in a lower edge of the door, an inner elongate carrier to carry a brush or other compression sealing strip for sealing the lower edge of the door, the inner and outer elongate carriers each carrying an elongate toothed track which can mutually enmesh at different relative dispositions to enable the sealing strip to locate at different levels below the door.
Preferably each of the end caps has a pair of inwardly extending lugs for location with the outer elongate carrier frame. Normally the end caps will be screwed in position to retain the remainder of the components in place.
An embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying diagrammatic drawings in which: Figure 1 is a part broken away part sectioned front view of the lower part of a door.
Figure 2 is a part broken side view of the door with the fitment in position, and Figure 3 is a sectioned side view on the lines III - III of Figure 1.
Referring to Figure 1, a brush seal fitment consists of a brush fibre sealing strip 1, held in place by an outer elongate carrier 2 of aluminium, an inner elongate carrier 3 also of aluminium and within the inner aluminium carrier 3, a metal elongate channel and core wire 4 which holds the fibres of the brush strip together.
The whole unit fits snugly within a rebate in the lower edge of a door, (see Figure 3) and is held in place by two end caps 5 (see Figure 2) each of which is held in place by a screw 6. Each end cap has a pair of inwardly directed lugs 7 which serve to locate the outer elongate carrier frame 2. The outer elongate carrier frame 2 has rebated channels on each side which match with the lugs 7 so that the elongate carrier frame is firmly held in position.
A principal feature of the invention is that the inner elongate carrier is held in position in respect of the outer elongate carrier by virtue of a mutually enmeshing toothed track 8.
The enmeshing of the inner and outer elongate carrier frames enables the sealing brush to be located at any appropriate height dependent on the location of the door with respect to the floor or other surface underneath that door.
In use, the fitment is assembled by first fitting one end cap, then assembling the inner and outer elongate carrier frames relative to one another at the correct positioning for the brush unit, the two carrier frames are then slid into place into the rebate in the door so as to locate with the end cap which is already in place, and the second end cap is then put into position and screwed firmly in place.
