Definitions

  • a metal frame for a door or window having bushes screwable outwardly to support the frame in an opening and a seal on each side of the support bushes, each seal comprising an elastic sealing strip disposed in a groove in the frame which can be forced outwards to engage the masonry with two spaced sealing lips by the introduction of a sealing compound into the corresponding groove through openings in the frame, the sealing strip having channels through which the sealing compound can flow to fill the space between the sealing lips.
  • the invention relates to a metal window or door with a casing adapted to be inserted without a mortar joint in an opening in masonry or brickwork.
  • the hygroscopic dressing mortar absorbs this condensation water and carries it further into the masonry, which becomes wet through at these points of contact with the metal structures.
  • frost occurs, the dressing and the masonry are destroyed.
  • black fungi appear and cannot be eliminated, because they appear again after being removed.
  • Aluminum has the property of expanding considerably on being heated and of contracting considerably on being cooled. This behavior of aluminum makes it impossible to install aluminum windows or door frames in masonry with dressing mortar so that they are watertight. In fact, with the action of cold, the dressing mortar is torn away from the masonry by the contracting metal frames. When wind and rain occur, water therefore penetrates into the gaps produced between the masonry and the metal frame and this results in further saturation of the building with moisture. Attempts have been made to produce a joint between the metal frames and the masonry be means of Thyokol compounds and similar elastic sealing compounds. This sealing method can be undertaken only in favorable weather. It presupposes laboratory conditions which do not exist on a building site.
  • the sealing material does not adhere to the masonry and immediatelybecomes detached. Moreover, the sealing material becomes brittle in time through the action of ozone, ultraviolet rays, sunlight and substances in the atmosphere and thereby also gives rise to leaks. In addition, the use of this sealing material also has an extremely disadvantageous effect because of its high cost.
  • the problem underlying the invention is to avoid the abovementioned disadvantages and provide a metal window or door which makes simple, strong and watertight installation possible without dressing mortar, permits expansion through heat without any detrimental efiect and substantially reduces heat losses.
  • a metal window or door which, according to the invention, has the following essential features:
  • a casing section having two outer grooves arranged on the two sides of the section, sealing sections of permanently elastic material which are movable outwardly in these grooves and which each have two outer sealing lips and a plurality of channels leading outwardly between these lips, closable openings on the inside of the casing section which pennit the forcing of a sealing compound into the two outer grooves, and cylindrical externally threaded supporting bushes which can be screwed outwardly in the middle portion of the casing section and serve to support the casing section on the masonry.
  • FIG. 1 is a view of a metal window inserted in an opening in a wall and having a pivoting or hinged casement;
  • FIG. 2 is an associated vertical section on a larger scale
  • FIG. 3 is an associated horizontal section
  • F IG. 4 is a view of a metal window inserted in an opening in a wall and having a swing casement
  • FIG. 5 is an associated vertical section
  • FIG. 6 is an associated horizontal section
  • FIG. 7 is a view of a revolving window inserted in an opening in a wall
  • FIG. 8 is an associated horizontal section
  • FIG. 9 is a view, partly in section, of a comer of a window
  • FIG. 10 shows another construction in horizontal section.
  • the frame 2 comprises a casing section having two outer grooves 4 arranged on the two sides of the section.
  • Outwardly movable sealing sections 5 of permanently elastic material (synthetic rubber) are arranged in these grooves and each of these sealing sections has a wet and two outer sealing lips 6 and a plurality of channels or apertures 7 arranged at intervals and leading outwardly between these lips.
  • Closable openings 8 are moreover provided on the inside of this casing section and enable a sealing compound (for example butyl mastic) to be forced into the two outer grooves 4.
  • cylindrical externally threaded supporting bushes 10 are provided and can be screwed outwardly in the middle portion 9 of the casing section and serve to support the casing section on the masonry. As can be seen in the drawing, each.
  • sealing section 5 advantageously has two inwardly directed lips 11 which rest against the groove wall.
  • the supporting bushes 10 are pot shaped, the base 12 of the bush supported against the masonry having a hole for the passage of a fixing bolt 13.
  • the casing section moreover has an intermediate inwardly directed groove 14. Furthermore, a plastics strip closing this joining these sections, all the parts of the section having ap-' proximately the same wall thickness.
  • the casing section has in outline a narrow rectangular cross section the wide side b of which is a multiple of the narrow side s.
  • This form not only has the substantial advantage that the casing frame 3 of the window can be bent into the form shown with a simple bending device from a single length of section, but that this frame also has a very small area in view of the very small narrow side 5, so that the transfer of heat from the internal space to the outside through this window casing and also the radiation of cold towards the internal space are thereby considerably reduced.
  • the pivoting or swingable window frame 3 or 3a, 3b mounted on the window casing consists of a section which corresponds substantially to the casing section in form and dimensions.
  • this window frame i.e. this window frame can also be produced in simple manner by bending lengths of section and, in consequence of the small narrow side s, likewise has a small area which reduces the transfer of heat.
  • the arrangement is advantageously such that the window casing 2 and the window frame 3, 3a, 3b are flush on the internal space side and on the outside.
  • the window which is completely assembled and glazed in the factory, is inserted in the finished opening 1 in the masonry.
  • the casing frame 2 is adjusted at an even distance from the masonry, the threaded bushed being supported firmly on the masonry by their bases 12.
  • a hole 20 is drilled into the masonry through the hole in the base of the supporting bush and a plastics plug is pushed into the first-mentioned hole.
  • the sealing sections 5 not only produce a permanently elastic, watertight joint between the masonry and the window or door casing frame, but they also even out irregularities and dimensional inaccuracies of the building-or structure. Not lastly, they assist the external and internal appearance of the installed metal window in an advantageous manner by the black sealing sections 5 extending round the casing frame 2 (see FIGS. 1, 4 and 7). As can be seen in the drawings and in particular also in FIG.
  • each sealing section 5 extends over the entire casing frame 2 and therefore also passes .over the circularly bent corners of the frame. So as also to close and seal the wall corners, profiled comer pieces 24 of permanently elastic material are provided, said comer pieces engaging by means of a corresponding arcuate rib 25 in the groove 21 of the sealing section 5.
  • both hinged and swing easements can be arranged in the same casing section frame 2.
  • the above-described window frame section 3 to 3b which corresponds in form to the casing section 2, has the advantage that the inner intermediate groove 26 of said section serves for inserting a double pane of glass 40, while the outer grooves 27 serve for securing bearing elements.
  • the window hinges 28 are secured in an outer groove 27 of the casement 3, this casement being adapted to pivot about the pin 29.
  • a bearing drum 31 is fixedly connected to the casing frame 2.
  • the rotary disc 32 supported on this bearing drum has two retaining bars 33 which are inserted in the grooves 27 of the casement 3a and secured by means of screws 34. Said bars 33 serve at the same time to connect securely the parts abutting at 35 from which the casement frame is made. In accordance with FIG. 6, one and the same section provided with an abutment or stop ridge 36 may be employed for these frame parts.
  • the revolving window according to FIGS. 7 and 8 may likewise be mounted in the casing frame 2 in the manner hereinbefore described.
  • a sealing strip 37 which advantageously has two sealing lips 38 arranged at a distance from one another. Since there is an airspace between these two lips, the passage of heat is reduced thereby at this point and, consequently, freezing of these lips to the sealing section 16 when it is extremely cold is also prevented.
  • FIG. 10 shows a window casement made from lengths of hollow section 39.
  • the casing frame 30 is constructed substantially in the manner hereinbefore described and has a stop ridge 40 for the window casement.
  • a metal casing for a door or window said casing having a plurality of supporting bushes spaced about the outer periphery of said casing in threaded engagement therewith, said bushes being screwable outwardly with respect to the casing to bear against the wall of an opening in which the casing is to be secured to thereby center said casing in said opening, two outwardly facing spaced parallel grooves extending around the outer periphery of said casing, one on each side of said supporting bushes, and sealing members of elastic material located in said grooves and movable outwardly thereof, each sealing member including an apertured web and a pair of spaced sealing lips projecting outwardly of said web around its outer periphery said web and spaced lips defining channels extending outwardly between the lips from the inner periphery of the sealing member, and said casing having closable openings communicating with said grooves whereby a sealing compound may be forced into said grooves through the apertured web to press said sealing members against the wall of the opening and to fill the space between said
  • each sealing member has two inwardly directed lips which rest against the walls of the groove.
  • each supporting bush has an opening therein for the passage of a fixing bolt.
  • each bush is tubular with a base wall at its outer end, said opening being formed in said base wall.
  • a metal casing as claimed in claim 1 having an inwardly facing groove between said outwardly facing grooves and a plastic strip closing said inwardly facing groove.
  • a metal casing as claimed in claim 5 in which the cross section of the casing is rectangular with a depth in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the casing which is a multiple of the width.
