Description

2339589 DESCRIPTION fzlazing DEX Joints The invention relates to the
treatment ofjoints between panes of glass.
The glazing industry has used mastic or silicone to seal gaps between frameless panes of glass. Such techniques suffer from a number of disadvantages, such as:- - specialist wet site applied operation, - non re-usability of joints in case of reconfiguration of glass layout.
- inconsistency in quality of finish, dependent on site conditions and skill of labour.
- yellowing and ageing of materials.
- high cost of installation.
The object of this invention is to simplify the installation of glazed partitions, providing transparent seals to join adjacent panes of glass. The main advantages are:
- installation by non-specialist labour.
- complete re-usability ofjoints.
- consistent factory finish.
- use of transparent non-yellowing materials.
- very low cost of installation.
The invention relies on the use of extruded transparent profiles with integral sealing finns or soft edges to seal against the glass edges.
The use of polycarbonates is recommended for a higher transparent effect, but alternative materials such as PVCs and polyurethanes can be used. For special effects, solid non transparent materials can be used, such as wood, metal and plastics.
An important application of this invention is in the use of double lazing, where the central joint is transparent throughout, without the need of an internal solid section, as used currently in the industry.
A preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying, drawings:

Claims (7)

  1. Glazing Dry Joints a. Transparent extrusion to provide prefabricated Joints between glass panes as shown in example 1.
    b. Transparent extrusion with sealing firins, to provide effective seal between glass I I panes, as shown in examples 2, 3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and 10.
    c. Transparent extrusion with male-female parts to achieve single module demountability in single or double -lazed assemblies, as shown in examples 5,6 and 7.
    d. Transparent extrusion to incorporate double glazing construction linking the two outer panes of glass to allow 'seeing' through the joint, as shown in examples 6,7 and e, Transparent extrusion to provide 90' comers between glass panes, as shown in example 8.
    f. Transparent extrusions to provide "T" Junctions between glass panes, as shown in example 9.

  3. 3. A joint as claimed in claim 1 with a transparent profile having sealing fins as shown in any of example 2-10.
  4. 4. A joint as claimed in claiml with a transparent profile formed from male and female parts to achieve single module demountability in single or double glazed assemblies as shown in examples 5-7.
  5. 5. A joint as claimed in claim 1 with a transparent profile linking two outer panes of glass to allow a see-through joint as shown in any one of examples 6,7 & 11.
  6. 6. A joint as claimed in claim I with a transparent profile providing a 90 degree corner between glass panes as shown in example 8.
  7. 7. A joint as claimed in claim 1 with a transparent profile providing a Tshaped junction between glass panes as shown in example 10.
