Description

FRICTION STAY WITH ANTI TAMPERING DEVICE
This invention relates to a friction stay for use in mounting a frame of a
moveable vent to the remainder of a window frame. The invention relates, in
particular, to a friction stay of improved ability to withstand loads applied thereto
in an attempt to gain unauthorised access to a building.
In order to gain unauthorised access to a building, it is known to introduce
a suitable tool between the frame of a moveable vent and the remainder of a
window frame, and to apply a force to the tool to attempt to move the vent frame,
and thereby to apply a sufficient load to the friction stay or to the locking
mechanism associated with the vent frame to cause the stay or the locking
mechanism to fail or to be weakened to such an extent that it is relatively easy
to open the vent.
It is an object of the invention to provide a friction stay whereby the risk
of unauthorised access to a building can be reduced. A further object is to
provide components for use with an existing friction stay whereby the ability of
the stay to withstand loads applied thereto is improved.
According to a first aspect of the invention there is provided a friction stay
comprising a vent arm moveable relative to a fixed component fixed, in use, to
a stationary part of a window frame, the vent arm and the fixed component each
having projections associated therewith co-operable with one another when the vent arm occupies a closed position to inhibit movement of the vent arm in the
direction of the longitudinal axis thereof.
One of the vent arm and the fixed component conveniently has, associated
therewith, a single projection, the other of the vent arm and the fixed component
having two projections defining therebetween a channel within which the said
single projection is received when the vent arm occupies its closed position.
The projections are conveniently provided on components securable to the
vent arm and the fixed component
The projections may be provided with ramped surfaces to assist in moving
the vent to a closed position.
According to another aspect of the invention there is provided a friction
stay comprising a vent arm moveable relative to a fixed component fixed, in use,
to a stationary part of a window frame, the vent arm carrying a projection which,
when the vent arm occupies its closed position, is out of alignment with the fixed
component, the projection co-operating with a stop, when the vent arm is in its
closed position, to restrain movement of the vent in a direction perpendicular to
the plane of the vent.
The projection and stop are conveniently shaped to co-operate with one
another as the vent is moved towards its closed position to guide the vent towards
the closed position. The projection may further be shaped to act as a stop, the projection
abutting at least one further component of the stay when the vent arm occupies
an open position.
Conveniently, the projection is securable to the vent arm.
The stay may further include co-operating projections in accordance with
the first aspect of the invention.
The stay is advantageous in that, when occupying its closed position,
movement of the vent arm in its longitudinal direction is restrained, thus the vent
is able to withstand increased loads, the risk of damage to the locking mechanism
is reduced, and hence the risk of unauthorised access to a building through the
vent is reduced. Further, levering of the vent to move the vent in a direction
perpendicular to the plane of the vent at the liinged' side of the vent is restrained,
again reducing the risk of unauthorised access being gained.
The invention will further be described, by way of example, with
reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figures 1 and 2 are perspective views illustrating a friction stay in
accordance with an embodiment of the invention in open and closed positions,
respectively;
Figure 3 is a plan view of the stay in its open position;
Figure 4 is an enlarged perspective view of part of the stay; Figures 5 to 8 are perspective views of some of the components of the
stay; and
Figures 9 to 14 are perspective views of some alternative components.
The friction stay illustrated in the Figures 1 to 8 comprises a fixed
component in the form of a track 10 arranged to be secured, for example using
screws, to a fixed part of a window frame. The friction stay is particularly
suitable for use with a window frame constructed from extruded lengths of
PVC-U material. It will be appreciated, however, that the friction stay may also
be used in other applications, for example window frames constructed from
aluminium. The track 10 defines a channel 12 within which a slide member 14
is located, the slide member 14 being slidable axially of the track 10. The lower
wall of the track 10 is deformed to define a projection 16 acting as a stop which
limits sliding movement of the slide member 14. The slide member 14 may be
provided with, for example, an adjustment screw 18 whereby the load resisting
sliding movement of the slide member 14 along the track can be adjusted to a
desired level.
First and second linkage arms 20, 22 are pivotally mounted upon the slide
member 14. The first arm 20 is pivotally connected, at its end remote from that
pivotally mounted upon the slide member 14 to a vent arm 24. The vent arm 24
is pivotally connected to a third linkage arm 26, the end of which remote from the vent arm 24 is pivotally mounted to the track 10. The end of the second
linkage arm 22 remote from the end mounted upon the slide member 14 is
pivotally connected to the third linkage arm 26. The lengths and positions of the
first, second and third linkage arms 20, 22, 26 are chosen to ensure that the vent
arm 24 is moveable between a closed position (as shown in Figure 2) in which
it overlies the track 10 and an open position (as shown in Figures 1 and 3) in
which it extends generally perpendicularly to the track 10.
In order to accommodate the various connections between the linkage
arms 20, 22, 26 and the vent arm 24, these components are bent to define steps
lying in different planes.
As shown in the drawings, the vent arm 24 is provided with a number of
openings 28 whereby the vent arm 24 may be secured, for example using screws,
to the frame of a moveable vent.
The friction stay described thus far is of generally conventional form.
In accordance with the invention, the track 10 has associated therewith a
component 30 provided with a pair of upstanding projections 32 defining
therebetween a channel 34. The vent arm 24 has associated therewith a
component 36 provided with a projection 38 receivable within the channel 34
when the vent arm 24 occupies its closed position, the projection 38 being co-
operable with the projections 32 such that movement of the vent arm 24 relative to the track 10 in its longitudinal direction is restrained. The projections 32, 38
are each provided with a ramped surface 40 arranged to ensure that, as the vent
arm 24 is moved towards its closed position, the vent arm 24 is lifted to a
position that ensures that the vent frame does not abut part of the fixed window
frame in such a manner as to prevent closure of the vent.
In order to make fitting of the component 30 and the component 36
relatively easy, these components are securing using the same fixing screws as
those used to secure the track 10 and the vent arm 24 in position. Additional
fixing screws are also used. In order to ensure that the component 36 extends
generally coaxially with the vent arm 24, the component 36 is provided with an
upstanding tang 42 which engages within a correspondingly shaped opening
provided in the vent arm 24.
In order to further enhance the security attainable using the friction stay,
a projection 44 is mounted upon the vent arm 24, the projection 44 being co-
operable, as the vent arm 24 is moved towards its closed position, with a stop 46
mounted upon the track 10. The stop 46 conveniently forms part of an end cap
shaped to co-operate with an end of the vent arm 24 to further ensure that
movement of that end of the vent arm 24 is resisted when the vent arm occupies
its closed position.
As illustrated most clearly in Figure 4, the projection 44 is arranged to protrude from a side of the vent arm 24 to a position in which it is out of
alignment with the track 10 when the vent arm 24 occupies its closed position.
The projection 44 includes an abutment surface 48 of curved form which co¬
operates with an abutment surface 50 provided on the stop 46. The abutment
surfaces 48, 50 are shaped to ensure that, when the vent occupies its closed
position, little or no movement of the vent arm 24 in a direction perpendicular
to the plane of the vent is permitted.
The projection 44 is further shaped such that when the vent arm 24
occupies its fully open position as illustrated most clearly in Figure 3, the
projection 44 engages both the second and third linkage arms 22, 26 to further
resist movement of the vent in the opening direction, assisting the engagement
between the slide member 14 and the stop 16 in resisting such movement. The
mounting of the projection 44 is conveniently achieved using at least one of the
screws used to secure the vent arm 24 to the vent. In addition, the projection 44
includes an integral tang 52 received within a correspondingly shaped opening
provided in the vent arm 24. An additional opening 54 is also provided in the
projection 44 whereby an additional mounting screw may be used to secure the
projection 44 to the vent.
In use, mounting of the friction stay is not a significantly more complex
process than the mounting of a conventional frictional stay, the main difference being that a few additional mounting screws are used to ensure that the various
components are secured rigidly in position. Once correctly mounted, opening
and closing of the vent in normal use is not impeded in any way. Indeed closing
of the vent is assisted to some extent as the co-operation between the projection
44 and the stop 46 as the vent approaches its closed position occurs relatively
early and from the commencement of the co-operation between the projection 44
and the stop 46, that part of the vent is guided towards its closed position. Also,
once the ramped surfaces 40 move into engagement with the opposing
components 30, 36 the vent will be moved to a position in which undesirable
abutment between the vent and the window frame can be avoided.
Once the vent is in its closed position, unauthorised access to the building
through the vent by levering of the vent is resisted. In particular, attempts to
lever the vent in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vent arm 24
will be resisted by co-operation between the projection 38 and the projections 32.
Levering of the side of the vent adjacent the projection 44 and stop 46 to try and
move the vent in a direction perpendicular to its plane will also be resisted by
engagement of the abutment surface 48 of the projection 44 with the abutment
surface 50 of the stop 46. The abutment surfaces 48, 50 are shaped such that the
spacing therebetween when the vent arm 24 occupies its closed position is very
small, thus levering of the vent is resisted to an extent better than that of a conventional stay. It will be appreciated that the ability of the friction stay of the
invention to withstand such levering, and hence to reduce the risk of
unauthorised access to a building being gained is improved.
If desired, the projection 44 may be omitted, in which case the stop 46
may be replaced by a conventional end cap.
Figures 9 and 10 illustrate a component 36 of alternative form in which
the projection 38 is of increased length. The component 36 of Figures 9 and 10
is intended for use with the component 30 of Figure 11 in which the channel 34
is of increased length to accommodate the projection 38.
Figures 12 and 13 illustrate an alternative form for the projection 44,
Figure 14 illustrating an alternative keep for use with the projection 44 of Figures
12 and 13.
