PANEL Application led'une 4, 1925, Serial No.
The object of the present invention is a panel frame, for instance for window and door panels, furniture walls, ballustrade lillings, grate-railings and the like, which o by way of eXample may be combined to a window-frame securing all the advantages of the wooden or the iron windows or sashes, said panel trame vbeing characterized by the fact, that at least one cover member suriu rounds at least one enclosure provided with a groove, said cover member and enclosure being thus arranged and combined with one another as to constitute a rigid unit adapted toreceive and hold a panel.
The main advantages of this design consist in the saving ot' space and material owing to the fact that even with small cross sections a great rigidity may be obtained.
lThe attached drawing shows by way of example two embodiments oi the invention. p Figure l is an elevation of a double window.
Figure 2-is a vertical section according to line a-a. Y
Figure 3 is a horizontal section on line owe.
Figure 4 shows a corner joint by way ot example. n
Figure 5 is a side view according to Fig- 30 ure 4 and Figure 6 is a perspective view of another embodiment Voit the invention. f
According to the first Working example (Figs. l to 5) the. panel :trame comprises an outer cover member l, whose bottom leg is provided with a weather-rail 1EL and an inner 'cover member 2. These cover members l and 2 may be made from proliled metal bars. An enclosure 3 is fitting tightly against at least two sides on the cover and. may be adapted for determining the prolile height ol the cross section. This enclosure C3 is provided with a groove 4 and is to be made from a material into which nails may be driven, such aswood, libre or the like, in order to allow the glazing of the window in the usual manner by means of pins or tacks 5 and a putty packing G.
The corner joints of the proled bars may be made in the usual Way either by riveting, soldering7 welding etc., and it is evident that the cover members may be connected at convenient places between themselves in a similar manner. It one of the cover members is to surround the enclosure to such a degree FRAME.
34,969, and mswitzeriana Jun@ e, 1924.
that the latter may be jammed into the cover member and thereby will be gripped tightly by the sides ot the latter an intermediary connection of, the cover members amongst themselves will not be necessary.
In the case that the enclosures are to partake in increasing the rigidity of the individual panel frames and of the whole structure, it isadvisable to interconnect the covers and the enclosures by means of pins 7 and the corner joints of the enclosures themselves as shown by way of 4example in Figs. 4 and 5. By interconnecting the covers andthe enclosures the frame parts are constituting combined girders since the pins 7 are submitted tol longitudinal thrusts, Whilst the arrangement of the corner joints of the enclosures evidently reinforces trame against warping.
i the panels are of a certain size a suitable number of horizontal and vertical intermediary muntins may be arranged, which are fixed iior instance yby means of tenons 9 which engage in corresponding mortices l0 of the enclosure 3. By means of pins l1 the 9 connection may be secured in a very simple manner. is a matter of course the muntins may consist of a material in which nails may be driven or may be constituted in part by such materials and a corresponding cover of metal.
The panel frame shown in Figs. l to 5 is adapted owing to its cross section for Adouble jointing and since its form of the iframe remains virtually unchangeable owing` to the metallic cover members, it will always fit tightly with unaltered eXactness against the sash-frame 12, thereby warranting a perfectly tight closing of the window.
It is possible to provide for a small stuit'- ing joint 13 for receiving apacking, say of putty, i4 which renders the connection between the panel iframe and the sash trame even more tight than it is already. lt is also possible to provide for a putty groove l5 by simply chamfering the edge of the enclosure and to thereby facilitate the adherence of the glaziers putty. 1
Fig. 6 shows a second embodiment of the invention constituting a fire-proof sash.
The panels are of wire glass and the covers l and 2 are connected by pins 7 traversing the enclosure 3. -The muntins are made of metal. Occasional notches are provided for in the llets for allowing to fasten the bentlll) itl
down Web of the fillet against its support. The notches are to be filled in With putty after glazing.
If the panel frame is made use of for a door7 the door panel may, in a similar inanner as above described for the ease of a. Window, be inserted into the groove 4 and be connected to the frame by nailing it on the enclosure or by securing 'it by means of a fixing illet or the like.
In the ease that the panel frame is to serve for manufacturing ballustrades or furnitures or for making Walls etc., the `frames proper may be replaced by single bars Constituting for instance Corneiposts, Which impart the required rigidity tothe said panels.
It is evident that the cover might he constituted by a. single piece of a box-like eross section, suoli for example that the enclosure 3 is entirely covered, leaving only the groove ft free, the saidenclosure being thus adapted to be slid longitudinally into the Cover meinbers. It would also be possible to use cover members of U- or Z-crossV section which might be slidover the top or bottom side of the enclosure.
If the panel frame is used for a double Vglass window a plurality of grooves a may be provided in the enclosures 3. The same holds good for double doors, double `Walls, ete. In the ease of two adjacent panel frames as for instance is the ease of the closed Window according to Fig. l it may be VWell to provide for a covering'tillet 16 with an abutment I7 Which is rigidly connected With one or the other of the panel frames. In the ease of corner-posts of Walls the enclosure l may be provided with a double groove corresponding to the two panels.
The main advantages of the Window aocording to the examples-shown are Great increase of light and unaltered tightness as compared With Wooden Window 'l'rainesg` and great' saving in \\f'eight,rpossi bility of nailing down the glass panels and` pleasing aspect as compared With iron Window frames. y x
lVliat I claim is:
l.- A panel frame structure, including a filler and a covering material encasing the saine having' angularly disposed non-engaging portions slitted at predetermined points to provide tongues bendable into engagement with the panel framelilleryand fastenfraine filler and the tongues.
In a panel frame structure, inner filler elements and a covering eneasing the saine having the major portion thereof in Contact with the fillers and angularly disposed out of Contact with the fillers to Vdenne shoulders for engaging and holdingl the panel Within the frame,the angularly disposed portions being slitted to provide tongues bendable Vinte engagement With'tlie` fillers, and fastening means passing through the fillers and said tongues.`
3. 'A panel p wooden filler frame and a fabricated outer sheet metal covering therefor comprising complete sections of angular cross-sectional construction having integral flanges, the innei' surfaces of which are completely engaged by the filler frame. y
