Abstract

A double rebate-effect panel, hingeable to a surround for rotation about one side, comprising a framework of generally rectangular cross-section supporting a pair of skins, at least one external edge of which framework bears a moulding the trailing edge of which protrudes proud of the interior skin of the panel and extends laterally outwardly from the panel so that, in service, it covers the gap between the edge of the panel and the surround in which it is mounted.

Description

DOUBLE REBATE-EFFECT PANEL
THIS INVENTION relates to double rebate-effect panels.
5 Conventional wooden door assemblies, especially exterior door assemblies, can be made with a double rebate; that is, with a conventional rebate in the door surround between the perimeter of the exterior face of the door and the door surround and also with a rebate in the edge of the door such that the interior face of the door overlaps the interior door surround. tAS used herein "exterior" as in "exterior face" 10 or "exterior skin" means that side generally presented to the environment and remote from the hinges or pivots of the door while "interior" refers to that side adjacent the hinges or pivots of the door. "External" is used for any surface of the panel or panel assembly that is, or can be, presented to view). Furthermore, the "trailing edge" of the moulding of this invention is that proximate to the interior skin 15 of the panel while the "leading edge" is proximate to the exterior skin of the panel.
However, the craftsmanship and time required to hang such doors correctly and pleasingly means that they are expensive and appeal only to a niche market.
Furthermore, wooden exterior door assemblies require regular maintaining and can be prone to decay.
uPVC exterior doors are increasingly being used, being easier to fit, furnishing good weather seals and requiring minimal maintenance. However, on occasion, they can be indifferently hanged which detracts from their appearance.
25 This invention seeks to provide an improved panel (such as a door) which inevitably gives a pleasing appearance.
Accordingly, therefore, to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a double rebate-effect panel, hingeable to a surround for rotation about one side, comprising 30 a framework of generally rectangular crosssection supporting a pair of skins, at least one external edge of which framework bears a moulding the trailing edge of which protrudes proud of the interior skin of the panel and extends laterally
- 2 outwardly from the panel so that, in service, it covers the gap between the edge of the panel and the surround in which it is mounted. Preferably the panel may be a door, preferably an exterior door.
5 Suitably the panel of the invention is one in which the edge may include a rebate or a groove and the moulding may include a location groove dimensioned so that the leading edge of the moulding fits flush on the edge. Desirably, the moulding may be present on three of the four edges.
10 Suitably, the trailing edge of the moulding may carry a strip seal which, in service, is urged against the interior surface of the surround on closure of the panel assembly. Furthermore the surround may carry a strip seal which, in service, is urged against the exterior skin on closure of the assembly.
15 Preferably, the framework of the panel is of wood, preferably a laminated wood such as spruce. It is found desirable that at least one skin may comprise a glass reinforced resin or PVC. Suitably the presented face of at least one skin may be pigmented. 20 The moulding may be fabricated from metal; for example, aluminium, Suitably, the moulding may be fabricated by extrusion, Desirably, the moulding may match the colour of the presented face of the skin.
According to another aspect of the invention, there is provided a panel assembly 25 wherein a panel of the invention may be hinged to a surround. Suitably, the surround may be fabricated from moulded plastics material; for example uPVC. Preferably, the moulding was fabricated by extrusion. Preferably, the plastics material may be moulded around a reinforcing member; the reinforcing member may comprise extruded steel.
In a panel or panel assembly according to this invention the panel may have a core comprising foamed plastics material.
- 3 According to a third aspect, this invention also provides a kit of parts including a panel according to the invention and hinges/pivots and/or fastenings. Suitably, the kit of parts also includes surroundforming members.
5 By utilising the present invention, the moulding (which is a species of bolection) will present to the eye at least one and usually two perimeter edges (neither of which is, in fact, the actual edge of the panel) which are as faultless as the fabrication process permit; and this regardless of the quality of the workmanship of the panel hanging which is concealed on closure of the panel assembly.
Indeed, the inner edge (when in situ) of the moulding may be formed to simulate a door gap. The bolection nature of the moulding ensures that a double rebate-effect door may be obtained with a traditional (eg. 1 3/4") thickness.
15 The invention will now be further described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which: Figure 1: shows a part cross-section through a preferred door according to the present invention together with surrounding associated framework; 20 Figure 2: shows a part cross-section of another design of door according to the present invention; and Figure 3: shows a cross-section of a simplified moulding.
With reference to the drawing, there is disclosed a door 1 which comprises a 25 rectangular frame 2, typically of a traditional hardwood, filled with a foamed resin (not shown) and faced on both sides with a pair of skins 3, 3', typically of polyester-
impregnated fibre glass (GAP). The edge 4 of the door may be rebated on the interior side of the door 5, as in Figure 1, or may include a groove 5', as in Figure 2.
30 The surrounding framework 6 includes an extruded uPVC moulding 7 strengthened internally with a rectangular steel extrusion 8 held in place by protrusions 9. The side of the uPVC moulding remote from the door 10 has strengthening ribs 11, 11'. The
-4 exterior side of the moulding 12 extends proud of the door and bears a captive elastomeric strip seal 13 against which the closed door is urged. The jamb 14 is dimensioned to receive a push-fitable plastics strip 15, held in position by tines 16, 16' and bearing one or more (one is shown) brush strip draught excluders 17.
Secured to the frame 2 is a metal extrusion 18 which includes a locating groove 19 dimensioned, both in width and height, to be received in the rebate 5 or groove 5' so that the extrusion may be secured to the frame 2, for example by screws (not shown), with the end 20 proximal to the exterior flush with the edge 4 of the door.
10 When secured, the distal end 21 of the extrusion is formed as a second rebate 22 which extends proud of the surrounding framework and bears a captive elastomeric strip seal 23 which, on closure of the door, is urged against the framework. Groove 24 acts as a tromps d'oeil, simulating the edge of the door.
15 It will be understood that this arrangement may extend about the top and both sides of the door, the corners of the several mouldings and extrusions suitably being mitred.
