Definitions
- ABSTRACT Glazed, weathertight assemblies particularly adapted for use as closures, e.g, windows, in wall openings comprise an exterior stop, L-shaped in cross-section, framing the opening, a ridge of pressure sensitive resilient tape framing the exterior stop, a toe bead of silicone rubber around the outer periphery of the ridge of tape, an impervious sheet member in weathertight engagement against the tape and the toe bead of silicone rubber and an interior stop having a resilient surface biased against the impervious sheet member, framing the exterior stop and the impervious sheet member and secured to the exterior stop. Also disclosed is a method for the glazing of outside walls from the inside only, in which such a weathertight assembly is produced.
- GLAZED IMPERVIOUS SHEET ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF GLAZING The present invention relates to glazed, weathertight impervious sheet assemblies, comprising windows, opaque sheets, such as spandrel glass or metal or plastic panels which, depending on the material, function to admit light and/or to provide resistance to the passage therethrough of moisture, air, gases, and selective resistance to some forms of radiant energy, and the like. Also crossmplated are methods for the installation of such sheets into outside walls from the inside only.
- the present invention provides improved weathertight assemblies in which the sheet members comprise glass, plastic, metal, etc., without the need for an externally applied seal.
- the present invention also provides a method of glazing in which such assemblies are produced entirely from the interior side of the wall.
- the method uses a toe bead of sealant which is not exposed to the weather.
- an integral compression gasket on the inner stop eliminates the need to install a full perimeter shim, as in some glazing methods.
- Non-light admitting sheet members or panels can also be glazed.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 are perspective views, the former exploded, of a weathertight assembly of the present invention, the latter showing its supporting structure in phantom;
- FIGS. 3 6 are fragmentary perspective end views, illustrating the steps used in glazing an opening in a wall from the inside, according to the present invention
- FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of a seal assembly to be described, using a laminated glass (or an insulating glass, glass plastic laminate, etc.), light admitting member and a compression gasket as part of the interior stop;
- FIG. 8 is a modification of a seal assembly as shown in FIG. 7 which includes an interior sealant bead.
- FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view of a seal assembly to be described, using a plastic light admitting means and a spline or compression gasket as part of the interior stop.
- a glazed weathertight impervious sheet assembly for a wall opening comprising:
- an exterior stop adapted to engage the marginal edges about an opening in an outside wall, the stop being L-shaped in cross-section, the vertical leg of the stop extending into the opening and the horizontal leg of the exterior stop extending from the wall toward the inside;
- a toe bead of silicone rubber composition around the outer periphery of the ridge of the resilient tape, the bead bridging the tape edge and the inside face of the vertical leg of the exterior stop;
- an interior stop framing the exterior stop and the impervious sheet member, the interior stop being affixed to the exterior stop and having a resilient surface biased against the impervious sheet member so as to prevent inward displacement of the member from the opening.
- the assemblies of this invention permit the wet seal to be placed closer to the weather as a toe bead, providing a greater degree of watertightness than possible with a heel bead.
- the toe bead eliminates any possibility of water entering the glazing channel and pooling in front of the impervious sheet.
- Resilient tapes and silicone rubber beads as used herein are not temperature sensitive, and there is no need to delay construction while waiting for the materials to become fluid and resilient enough for glazing.
- the assembly operation may be carried out with little fear of breakage as may be the case with sealants which harden as the temperature decreases, e.g., acrylic, vinyl acrylic or polysulfide, and the like.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 show and assembly for installation in outside wall 2, having outer surface 4 and inner surface 6.
- Exterior stop 8 is substantially L-shaped in cross-section, vertical leg 10 of the stop extending into the opening and horizontal leg 12 extending from wall 2 toward the inside.
- Resilient tape 14 is in the form of a compressed continuous ridge affixed to the inside face of vertical leg 10.
- Toe bead 16 of silicone rubber is disposed at the outer periphery of resilient tape 14 and bridges the tape and vertical leg 10 of exterior stop 8.
- Impervious sheet member 18, of glass or plastic (metal or the like can also be used) is in weathertight engagement with tape ridge l4 and toe bead 16.
- Interior stop 20 is fixed to horizontal leg 12 of exterior stop 8 by being engaged in detents or by being affixed with screws (not shown) and it has an intergral formed-to-fit resilient face comprising, for example, compression gasket 22, which bears against impervious sheet member 18 and holds it in position, e.g., during and after cure.
- Tape 14 and sealant 16 are compressed to about 25-75%, preferably 25-50%, of the tape thickness with spacers or shims, as necessary.
- FIGS. 3 through 5, inclusive show the stepwise installation of glass or a similar impervious sheet material into an exterior stop framing an opening.
- the exterior stop 8 and sheet 18 should be inspected to determine that they meet conventional construction requirements for proper and uniform face and edge clearances.
- the framed opening should be square "and plumb. It is desirable to seal any miter and butt joints with a silicone rubber sealant prior to beginning the installation steps. All weeps, or drain holes, should be located and noted to prevent plugging or inadvertent sealing during glazing.
- All glass, metal and plastic surfaces to which the tape and sealants are to be applied should be cleaned, with methyl ethyl ketone solvent on glass and metal surfaces; and isopropyl alcohol or naphtha on plastic surfaces.
- Continuous ridge 14 of resilient tape is formed by applying pressure-sensitive tape from a roll against the horizontal head and sill parts of exterior stop 8.
- the tape should not be pre-cut into strips, and flexible sheet backing 15 should not be stripped before installation as this may cause stretching of the tape.
- the tape should be aligned evenly at the sight line.
- tape is affixed to the vertical portions of exterior stop 8, butting the tape ends against the head and sill portions of the tape.
- Release sheet 15 is then removed to expose a clean, impervious sheet member-receiving surface.
- the corners of the tape should not be lapped as this can create voids. Although the corners can be turned by running a continuous strip of tape around the opening, it is preferred not to do so as the tape may be dislodged during the glazing sequence.
- the width of the tape should be sized to allow a %inch (6.4 mm.) space between the tape and the sheet edge for placement of toe bead 16.
- %inch 6.4 mm.
- Spacers or spacer shims should also be installed to allow the tape and sealant to be compressed to 25-75%, preferably 25-50%, of the tape thickness. Then full toe bead 15 of a silicone rubber composition is applied around the perimeter of tape 14, bridging the edge of the tape and the inside surface of exterior stop 8 (FIG. 4).
- Impervious sheet member 18 is set on the setting blocks (usually not used if plastic is being glazed), the
- interior stop 20 is snapped into the detents on horizontal leg 12 of exterior stop 8.
- Compression gasket 22 which is keyed into stop 20 bears against impervious sheet member 18 to prevent lateral displacement and to maintain its position (FIG. 6).
- FIG. 7 illustrates an assembly adapted for laminated glass sheet 18, the assembly comprising exterior stop 8, tape ridge l4, toe bead 16, interior stop 20 and compression gasket 22.
- FIG. 8 illustrates another assembly adapted for laminated sheet glass 18, the assembly comprising exterior stop 8, tape ridge 14, toe bead 16, interior stop 20 and compression gasket 22. It also includes optional interior bead 24, which is preferably a silicone sealant composition.
- Preferred light admitting members are sandwiches of glass with an aromatic polycarbonate resin interlayer, e.g., LEXGUARD, a product of General Electric Company, Pittsfield, Mass.
- FIG. 9 shows an assembly adapted for plastic sheet 18, the assemby comprising exterior stop 8, tape ridge 14, which should be at least 1/16 inch thick (after compression), toe bead l6, interior stop 20 and compression gasket 22.
- Plastic sheets as well as other impervious sheets used for glazing purposes can all be used.
- the present assemblies are superior to prior art systems because there are no solvents or other volatiles to attack the sealants used to seal insulating sheet members, affect the resinous interlayers in laminated glass, or cause stress crazing in acrylic sheets or polycarbonate sheets. Moreover, even if water should accidentally gain entrance into any glazing channel, because the critical seals are made of silicone rubber, the presence of water will not cause deterioration or failure.
- the pressure sensitive tapes used in the present methods and assemblies can be prepared by techniques well known to those skilled in the art.
- Typical properties of a useful tape are as follows:
- tempe rature ASTM refers to an American Society of Testing Materials Test.
- PSTC is a test method of the Pressure Sensitive Tape Council.
- the tapes can be made by casting onto a nonadhesive paper liner a suitable weatherand waterresistant flexible foam of rubber or plastic, such as a plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) foam of 5 to 20 lbs/cubic ft. density, in thickness of about A inch or /8 inch. Then a weatherand water-resistant adhesive comprising a solvent solution of a natural or synthetic rubber or a resin, such as an acrylate resin or a silicone resin,-
- the adhesive coated foam-paper composite is rolled and is slit into ribbons, e.g., of inch or inch in width, to provide tape in convenient rolls for storage and application. Obviously, other methods can be used to prepare suitable tapes.
- a suitable silicone-adhesive tape can be made as follows: a pressure sensitive adhesive is obtained according to the procedure disclosed in US. Pat. No. 2,857,356, incorporated herein by reference, by intercondensing at about 140C. for l-2 hours a 65% xylene solution of a methylpolysiloxane resin having about 1.12 silicon-bonded methyl groups and chainterminated with about equal parts of hydroxy and isopropoxy groups, and having a viscosity of about 12 centipoises as a 60% solids solution in xylene, with a silanol endstopped methylphenylpolysiloxane gum having a viscosity of about 12 million centipoises and containing a mole ratio of dimethylsiloxy groups to diphenylsiloxy groups of 95:5.
- the relative amount of resin to gum is about 1:1.
- the solids content is then adjusted to about 60% solids in xylene, and about 1% by weight, based on solids of benzoyl peroxide catalyst is added.
- the solution is cast on one of the major faces of a plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) foam ribbon, density lbs./ft. inch thick X inch wide and the coated ribbon, backed by a non-adhesive paper liner, is heated at about 140C. for 10 minutes to evaporate the solvent, and then heated for 2 minutes at 175C. in a forced draft oven to advance the cure.
- Such coating is pressure-sensitive and is 1 mil thick.
- the composite is rolled, then split into tape rolls of suitable widths, e. g., A to inch.
- silicone rubber sealants used in the present methods and assemblies can be prepared by techniques well known to those skilled in the art.
- Typical properties of a useful sealant, after curing for 21 days at 73F. and 50% relative humidity are as follows:
- a suitable sealant can be applied from cartridges and is obtained as follows: a base compound is prepared under anhydrous conditions, comprising the following (by weight):
- a catalyst comprising (by weight):
- crosslinker methyltrimethoxysilane
- crosslinker 0.5 parts 1 ,3-dioxypropanetitanium-bisethyl acetoacetate (catalyst) 1.8 do.
- the water infiltration resistance of a glazed assembly prepared according to this method is measure by testing, as follows:
- a glazing sealant and a inch X A. inch glazing tape are prepared as described above and used to glaze a fixed glass light (V4 inch thick, tempered) in a millfinish aluminum frame with the glass set from the interior. All surfaces to receive the sealant are cleaned with methyl ethyl ketone.
- the glazing tape is applied to the fixed stops, flush with the edges, with the corners tightly butted. A full toe bead of silicone glazing sealant is applied to the fixed stop against the glazing tape.
- the glazed frame is installed in a strong test chamber and subjected to static pressure water tests in accordance with the techniques required by the NAAMM Metal Curtain Wall Manual and by ASTM-E 331-70.
- the tests utilize a water spray at the rate of gallons per hour per square foot (equal to rain at the rate of 8 inches per hour).
- the glazed unit is subjected to the static pressures of water indicated, each pressure is maintained for minutes, and the results are as follows:
- a glazed, weathertight sheet assembly for a wall opening comprising:
- an exterior stop adapted to engage the marginal edges about an opening in an outside wall, said stop being L-shaped in cross-section, the vertical leg of said stop extending into the opening and the horizontal leg of said exterior stop extending from the wall toward the inside;
- a toe bead of silicone rubber composition around the outer periphery of the ridge of said resilient tape, said bead bridging the tape edge and the inside face of the vertical leg of said exterior stop;
- an interior stop framing the exterior stop and the impervious sheet member, said interior stop being affixed to the exterior stop and having a resilient surface biased against the impervious sheet member so as to prevent inward displacement of said member from said opening and to maintain its position in said opening.
- An assembly as defined in claim 1 which also includes an interior bead of silicone rubber composition around the inner periphery of the interior stop, said bead bridging the edge of the interior stop and the inside face of the impervious sheet member.
- said light admitting member comprises a sandwich of outer layers of glass with an aromatic polycarbonate resin interlayer.
- a method for the weathertight installation from the inside of an impervious sheet member into an opening in an outside wall comprising:
- said opening with a continuous exterior stop, L-shaped in cross-section, the vertical leg of said exterior stop extending into the opening and the horizontal leg of said exterior stop extending from the wall toward the inside; framing said exterior stop with a continuous ridge of resilient tape having an inwardly presented impervious sheet member-receiving face by affixing a resilient pressure sensitive tape to the inside face of the vertical leg of said exterior stop adjacent to the inner periphery of said exterior stop, the inwardly presented face of said tape having a superjacent releasible protective sheet backing, and then removing said protective sheet backing;
- a method as defined in claim 8 including the step of applying an interior bead of silicone rubber composition around the inner periphery of the interior stop, said head bridging the edge of the interior stop and the inside face of the impervious sheet member.
