Definitions

  • This invention relates to a building glass facade of a building, which facade comprises a plurality of glass elements or panels covering at least a portion of the building.
  • This invention further relates to a clamping arrangement in a facade for holding a glass panel on a facade. More particularly, the invention relates to a glass panel clamping arrangement for clamping a building glass panel in a facade to a building.
  • This invention also relates to a brace to hold safety glass panels.
  • the safety glass panels thereby consist of at least two glass plates that are positively and non-positively connected to each other by a separating or connecting film.
  • the brace is provided on one hand with a mounting device that can be attached to a building and on the other hand with a device that runs through the glass panel with flanges that simultaneously hold the glass plates.
  • German Patent No. 195 19 527 A1 describes a device in which a beam provided with the building-side mounting is supported on a building-side clamp element.
  • the support is thereby provided by means of a bearing head of the beam that is mounted so that it yields elastically in the axial direction of the beam, whereby the bearing head is also mounted with lateral play or clearance in a bearing compartment. Consequently, when wind pressure is applied, it becomes possible for the beam and/or the bearing head to move parallel to the plane of the glass panel.
  • the elastic flexibility of the bearing head is thereby created by spring washers or by a permanently elastic material. This permanently elastic material or the spring washers apply a continuous restoring force to the beam or to the glass panel in the sense of repositioning the beam.
  • this system results in the introduction of stresses in the glass panel, whereby greater tolerances between the borings in the glass panel and the connection point to the building-side mounting cannot be compensated.
  • German Patent No. 44 00 979 A1 also describes a device in which the mounting bearing on the inside of the building has a spherical surface on the external surface that faces the mounting, and against which a compensating part with a complementary spherical cap surface is in contact.
  • the clamping element thereby has a boring that runs all the way through to hold a clamp screw that connects the clamping elements and a retaining screw that penetrates a shim part and the compensator part, and is inserted into the clamping element.
  • VSG compound glass panels
  • Such compound glass panels are manufactured by first providing the individual plates of glass with the necessary borings and then, in a single manufacturing process, introducing the separating or connecting film.
  • there are unavoidable manufacturing tolerances that are also of the type that cause the normally overlapping holes of two neighboring plates of glass to be misaligned.
  • German Patent No. 39 18 158 C1 discloses a fire-protection glass unit which has a metal frame with an encircling mounting groove, in which, with the interposition of a compensating adapter, a glass panel is fastened.
  • the compensating adapter has two glued-on expanded metal strips, the edges of which are in the mounting groove, whereby a strip-shaped non-metallic spacer is located between the edges.
  • the compensating adapter ensures that in the event of a fire, a destructive temperature gradient will not occur between the large surface of the glass panel and the edge of the glass panel, and also prevents any mechanical stresses caused by differential thermal expansion in the metal frame and in the glass panel from having negative effects.
  • An object of the invention resides in a building glass facade of a building having a fastening assembly to attach and hold glass panels.
  • the invention permits an installation free of tension on the fastening assembly during assembly, and permits a sufficient elasticity between the fastening assembly and the glass panel after installation.
  • An additional object of the invention is to fasten safety glass panels so that on one hand, no stresses occur in the glass panels during installation, and on the other hand so that, after installation, the safety glass panels retain a certain freedom or room of movement to adapt to their fastening point, and can also be used, for example, in overhead glazing applications without the need for additional safety-relevant devices.
  • This object can be achieved in a building glass facade of a building comprising a plurality of glass elements covering at least a portion of a building, which at least one of the elements comprises a glass panel and a brace or fastening device.
  • the invention also teaches that this object can be accomplished in a brace to hold safety glass panels.
  • a brace In order to secure the glass plates, there is an invisible protection against falling out, which is achieved by a separating or connecting film in connection with the braces, and a permanently elastic medium is provided between the brace parts and the glass plates for stress-free installation. Additional characteristics of the invention are disclosed herein below.
  • the invention teaches that to secure the glass panels, an invisible protection against falling is provided and is accomplished by the separating or connecting film in connection with the punctiform braces used. Simultaneously, there is a permanently elastic medium between the brace and the glass plates to guarantee stress-free installation and subsequent mobility, and thus the elasticity of the glass panels being held.
  • the punctiform braces are designed so that in their center clamping area they firmly clamp the separating or connecting film, and simultaneously, as a result of the use of the permanently elastic medium, do not reduce the freedom of movement of the safety glass panel.
  • a reinforced separating or connecting film is used on the highly-sensitive glass sheets in the vicinity of the borings.
  • the film can also contain a network of appropriate materials, such as Keflar or carbon fibers, for example, which also spread out in a sunburst pattern around a punctiform brace.
  • Keflar or carbon fibers for example, which also spread out in a sunburst pattern around a punctiform brace.
  • To be able to clamp the separating or connecting film rather large borings must be introduced inside the safety glass panels. As noted above, these borings are introduced before the process of connecting the individual glass sheets by means of the separating or connecting film. Thus, the separating or connecting film must project into the area of the boring.
  • the above mentioned materials can also be used to provide reinforcement in the vicinity of the clamping. It is also possible, in the vicinity of the punched-out portions of the separating and connecting film, to introduced flat lugs, for example, that are connected positively and non-positively with the connecting film. This measure improves the transmission of forces between the film and the brace.
  • the film can be clamped directly by the brace, and on the other hand, the lug that has been introduced is clamped by the brace.
  • the braces are preferably realized in the form of punctiform braces, so that they consist at least of two simple rotating parts that can be screwed into each other.
  • the two rotating parts after they have been screwed into each other, have a clamping area that is formed by clamp surfaces that are flat. Between these clamping surfaces, the projecting separating or connecting film or lug is then connected positively and non-positively with the brace.
  • This system can also be used, for example, on multiple-plate or laminated safety glass panels.
  • spacer rings are used for the center sheet, whereby the height of these spacer rings is equal to the thickness of the middle glass plate.
  • two films project into the area of the boring, which on one hand are kept apart by the spacer ring and on the other hand, as a result of the screwing together of the two brace parts, positively and non-positively clamp the spacer ring on one hand and the separating and connecting film on the other hand.
  • the above mentioned lugs can also be used on multiple-plate safety glass panels. These lugs would then simultaneously surround the spacer ring.
  • the two brace parts which are screwed into each other each have flanges which extend beyond the edge of the boring inside the safety glass panels.
  • a dimensional coordination between the brace and the borings inside the safety glass panels is necessary to guarantee the elastic clamping of the glass panel.
  • This clamping is achieved because a permanently elastic medium is introduced between the flanges of the brace parts and the edges of the glass panels and the boring.
  • This permanently elastic medium can consist of rubber, silicone, etc., for example.
  • braces can be mounted on any type of substructure and can also be made without additional effort from stainless steel or light alloy.
  • inventions include “inventions”, that is, the plural of “invention”.
  • inventions the Applicants do not in any way admit that the present application does not include more than one patentably and non-obviously distinct invention.
  • disclosure of this application may include more than one invention, and, in the event that there is more than one invention, that these inventions may be patentable and non-obvious one with respect to the other.

  • a permanently elastic medium in the form of an insert 6 , 8 is inserted, which thus fills up the open space inside the boring 30 of the glass plates 2 , 3 and the brace parts 13 , 14 .
  • This space can be designed as a function of the loads that such safety glass panels are required to withstand. It is clear, however, that as a result of the clamping of the separating and connecting film 1 , the brace parts 13 , 14 have achieved an invisible protection against the safety glass panel falling out, and a clamping of the safety glass panel is simultaneously achieved to a certain degree as a result of the fact that the safety glass panel can be adjusted as a function of outside factors, and there is a neutralization of force in the event of the application of external loads.

  • a spacer ring 23 is required, which is inserted between the two films. Then the two brace parts 20 , 26 can be connected to each other via the thread 25 , and then the two separating and connecting films 1 with the spacer ring 26 located between them can be positively and non-positively connected to each other.
