Description

Sash profile for windows and doors with anal attachment for additional elements

The invention relates to a wing profile, in particular for doors and windows, the cross section of which has at least:

an outer wall area with an outer wall and at least one central wall parallel thereto, which are connected to one another by at least two webs to form at least one outer hollow chamber, an inner wall area with an inner wall and at least one central wall parallel to it, which is formed by at least two webs with at least one web inner hollow chamber are interconnected,

a glass support area with a glass support profile web and a connecting web arranged below it, via which webs the outer wall area and the inner wall area are connected to one another to form a central hollow chamber.

Such window profiles have been well known for a long time and are produced by various manufacturers. Sections of these window profiles are put together to form a frame that surrounds one or more glass panes. Below is a glass support area

BESTATIGUNGSKOPIE large hollow chamber is provided, in which a stiffening metal profile is inserted. A narrow groove on the underside of the hollow chamber allows the inclusion of a turn-tilt fitting with which the sash can be stored and locked in a compatible frame.

A disadvantage of the known window profiles, however, is that, apart from the narrow and flat metal strips of a turn-tilt fitting, no larger additional elements can be integrated into such a frame. It is therefore not possible to equip windows, doors or other building openings with additional elements such as sensors and drives in order to achieve automated ventilation, for example. Placing such additional elements on the inner wall on the inside of the window sash profile is not acceptable for residential and business premises for aesthetic reasons.

From DE 101 48 793 AI a device for closing or opening an opening is known. In addition to the known turning and tilting of the sash, a plane-parallel lifting of the sash from the frame is also possible. The resulting slot, which is the same width all the way round, enables improved ventilation behavior. ^'' •

From DE 101 13 784 AI, a window or door structure with a frame and a wing movably attached to the frame, which can be actuated by a motor, is known. The hardware modules provided between the frame and sash can be driven by a single motor so that the opening and closing movements of the sash be carried out, with the motor drive also giving the possibility of remote control.

In the aforementioned designs of a window or a door, the additional fittings, drive and control elements are, for example, thereby converted into conventional ones

Wing profiles used that part of the wing profile below the glass support area milled out and thus a receiving recess is made. However, since a hollow chamber is provided below the glass support area in the known wing profiles, into which a stiffening metal profile, in particular a square tube, is inserted, the manual reworking leads to a severing of the chamber and the reinforcement profile and to the fact that the heat insulation, rigidity and Wing strength is deteriorated.

It is therefore the task of improving a sash profile for windows and doors of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that it can be equipped with additional elements such as motors, sensors, force deflection elements and high-build hardware components without manual intervention in its basic structure. In addition, the sash profile should correspond to known sash profiles in its external dimensions to such an extent that it is compatible with known frame profiles and can therefore be replaced by an existing window sash while maintaining the frame.

This object is achieved according to the invention in a wing profile with the features of the preamble of claim 1 in that the outer wall area, the inner wall area and the glass support area have a U-shaped configuration and between the middle walls and the Connecting web is a receiving area open on one side for additional elements is formed.

Due to the U-shaped configuration with the narrow outer and inner wall areas, which extend parallel to the plane of the glass pane, a high degree of flexural rigidity is achieved, which is particularly advantageous for the use of the profile on the top and bottom of a wing, where the frame profile is subjected to heavy loads by the weight of the glass pane used.

With the wing profile according to the invention, a wing can be formed which has a circumferential receiving channel with a large cross-sectional area. The structural structure of the sash profile must no longer be interfered with when installing drive, control and operating devices. At most, a few holes for screws etc. have to be drilled.

The advantages achieved by the invention also lie in the fact that the receiving area is enclosed on three sides by insulating hollow chambers and is only open to the underside of the profile, ie to the outside in the case of a finished window sash. Cold bridges are avoided in this way. The side of the receiving area that is open to the outside is sealed against a frame profile in a window, so that thermal insulation is guaranteed by the frame-sash combination.

Further advantageous refinements of the inventions are contained in the subclaims and are explained in more detail below on the basis of an exemplary embodiment illustrated in the drawing. The figures show in detail: Figure 1 is a schematic cross section of a wing profile according to the invention. and

Fig. 2 shows a wing profile system according to the invention with wing and compatible frame in cross section.

The wing profile 100 according to the invention is shown in a very simplified manner in FIG. 1 in order to show the U-shaped basic configuration comprising an outer wall region 10, an inner wall region 20 lying opposite one another and a glass support region 40 arranged transversely thereto.

The above-mentioned assemblies 10, 20, 40 enclose a receiving area 30 open on one side in the cross-sectional profile, through which a channel is formed on the outside of the wing in a profile section of the wing profile 100 according to the invention, in which additional elements 301 ... 304 (cf. FIG. 3) are attached can be.

The following can be integrated as additional elements:

- drive motors and power lines;

- control devices and control lines; - Sensors, especially wind and precipitation sensors;

- CCD cameras;

- Manual operations for window or door leaf adjustment; - Power transmission elements such as chains, cables or link bars; and or

- Force deflection elements such as slide rails, rollers, especially at the corners of a wing.

The outer wall area 10 is at least formed by an outer wall 11 and at least one central wall 12 parallel thereto. The outer and middle walls 11, 12 are connected to one another at a distance by at least two webs 15.1, 15.2 and enclose at least one outer hollow chamber 14 which is air, gas or plastic for insulation purposes. is filled with foam.

The inner wall area 20 is formed by an inner wall 21 and at least one central wall 22 parallel thereto, which are connected to one another by at least two webs 25.1, 25.2 and form at least one inner hollow chamber 24, which in turn is used for heat and / or sound insulation.

The hollow chambers 14, 24 and all other hollow chambers in the inner and / or outer wall area 10, 20 have the additional advantage, in addition to the insulating function, that they can be used as a cable duct to drive, sensors or the like. , which are installed in the recording area 30, to be connected via electrical, pneumatic or other lines. Provision can furthermore be made to attach a separate cable duct to the middle walls 12 or 22 within the chamber 30 towards the outer wall area 10 or also towards the inner wall area 10.

The glass support area 40 essentially consists of a glass support profile web 41 and a connecting web 42 arranged underneath. These webs 41, 42 connect the outer wall area 10 to the inner wall area 20. A middle hollow chamber 44 is enclosed between them.

The glass support area 40 preferably adjoins the T-shaped outer wall area 10, which is above of the glass support area 40 can continue in a glass holding area 19.

In contrast, the glass support area 40 preferably adjoins the inner wall area 10 at a right angle, in an L-shape. A separate can then be in the corner area

Glazing beads for clamping a glass pane against the glass holding area 19 of the wing profile 100 are used.

A connecting element 50 can be attached to the downward-pointing free ends 13, 23 of the inner wall region 10 and the outer wall region 20 in order to hold additional elements which may be arranged in the receiving region 30. In addition, a stiffening in the region of the free ends 13, 23 can be brought about by means of a bow-shaped or plate-shaped connecting element 50.

2 shows a specific embodiment of a wing profile system according to the invention using the example of a window with glass element 400. The wing profile system comprises at least:

a wing profile 100, in particular made of plastic, at least one reinforcing profile 60, in particular made of metal, which is inserted into a hollow chamber 44, and

- a frame profile _. 200, in particular made of plastic, which can also be provided with a reinforcing profile. In addition, the wing profile system includes sealing strands, fittings and the like in a known manner.

In the outer wall area 10 of the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 2, four webs 15.1,..., 15.4 are present, by means of which the outer wall 11 and the central wall 12 are connected to one another. These webs 15.1, ..., 15.4 can NEN can be pierced with holes, grooves, etc., which extend from a lower free end 13 of the outer wall region 10 to through the glass support profile web 42, whereby drainage for condensate that has penetrated into the glass support region 40 is made possible to the outside. Sensor and control lines can also be routed through such openings.

In the same way as in the outer wall area 10, the webs 25.1, 25.2, 25.3 of the inner wall area 20 can be broken.

A positioning groove 28 is preferably provided on the central wall 22 at the free end 23 of the inner wall area 20 which projects further downward beyond the receiving area 30. One or more thread guide webs 29 are provided above and / or below the positioning groove 28. A self-tapping screw can be screwed into the inner wall 22 in the positioning groove 28. The thread guide webs 29 result in an extended guidance of the screw thread in the hollow chamber formed between the middle wall 22 and the inner wall 21.

A reinforcing profile 60 according to the invention is inserted into the hollow chamber 44 between the glass support profile web 41 and the connecting web 42. Since the cross-sectional area of the wing profile 100 according to the invention is largely required for the receiving area 30, there is no longer a large hollow chamber available in which a metal tube profile can be inserted, as is present, for example, in the large hollow chamber of the frame profile 200 in FIG. 2.

Instead, according to the invention, the stiffening of the wing profile 100 against forces that are perpendicular to the plane of the Glass element 400 act, caused by the two long reinforcement profile sections 61, 62 of the reinforcement profile 60.

These are close together in order to utilize the space available in the hollow chamber 44. To protect against buckling under heavy loads, the reinforcement profile sections 61, 62 are connected to one another with a small bend. In addition, the lower reinforcement profile section 62 continues in a stabilization section 63 arranged at right angles thereto. This in particular braces the sash profile section lying at the bottom of a window against the line load caused by the weight of the glass element 400.

It is also possible for the stabilization section to adjoin the inner reinforcement profile section 61, that is to say extend in FIG. 2 to its right edge.

Furthermore, the reinforcement profile section 62 is used to fasten additional elements in the receiving area 30. Self-tapping screws can be driven through the reinforcement profile section 62 in order to ensure secure anchoring of the additional elements than would be possible solely by screwing in the material of the wing profile 100. If a fastening screw hits penetration of the reinforcement profile section 62 and the hollow chamber 44 on the reinforcement profile section 61, which is spaced parallel and opposite, there is a noticeable resistance for the craftsman, which signals that the intended screw-in depth has been reached. The arrangement of the parallel reinforcement profile sections 61, 62 at the same time as protection of the glass support area 40 with the sealing and glass elements present there.

In addition to the arch that connects the reinforcement profile sections 61, 62, a left-hand region 44.1 of the hollow chamber 44 is exposed, so that cables and the like are also in the region 44.1. can be guided into the receiving space 30. Bores 44.1, 44.3 (cf. FIG. 4) are provided for the vertical passage of cables through the hollow chamber 44 as well as for the removal of moisture, which adjoin the left-hand area 44.1 of the hollow chamber 44.

To accommodate the stabilizing section 63, the hollow chamber 44 extends in an L-shape into the inner wall region 20. A first web 25.1 runs from the inner wall 21 only to an intermediate wall; the stabilizing section 63 of the reinforcing profile 60 can be inserted between the intermediate wall and the inner central wall 22.

The stabilizing section 63 extends only partially over the inner wall area 20, so that between its outer edge and the free end 23 there is a sufficient length of the inner wall area 20 which is free of metallic reinforcement profiles and which is thus suitable for holding handles and / or other additional elements can be easily drilled through.

In the preferred embodiment of the window frame profile 100 according to FIG. 2, the inner hollow chamber 24 is preferably divided into individual hollow chambers 24.1, ..., 24.4 in the inner wall area 20. The hollow chambers 24.1 and 24.2 are next to the receiving area for the stabilization 004/055311

11

tion section narrow, as is the hollow chamber 24.4 next to the thread guide webs 29. For hinge fittings to be attached to the end face at the free end 23 of the inner wall region 20, a screw can be driven through the hollow chambers 24.1,..., 24.4, as indicated by the dashed line 52 then anchored to the webs 25.1, 25.3, 25.3 several times.

The receiving area 30 is essentially rectangular, in which case rail-like projections can protrude on the open side of the receiving area 30 and serve to hold additional elements inserted into the receiving area 30. The cross-sectional width of the receiving area 30 is approximately 1/2 to 2/3 of the cross-sectional width of the airfoil 100. The height of the receiving area 30 is preferably 0.5 times to 1 times its width.

Two opposite webs 31, 32 are preferably arranged in the receiving area 30 facing the frame. These can serve as a guide for rolls of fittings that run in the receiving area 30. In addition or in place of the connecting element 50, a cover element 51 can be snapped onto the webs 31, 32 or fastened in some other way in order to completely or partially cover the receiving area 30 after the installation of drives and / or fittings and thus on the one hand to protect it against contamination and on the other hand, to provide protection for persons against injuries to hardware components.

The cross-sectional width of the wing profile 100 is preferably 58 mm to 90 mm, so that the wing profile 100 according to the invention fits into existing profile systems for windows and doors can be integrated and that even a wing constructed from the wing profile 100 according to the invention can be inserted into existing frames.

The cross-sectional width of the wing profile 100 in a wing profile system is preferably selected such that the gap width in an outer wing contact area 210 is approximately 3 to 5 mm and in the inner wing contact area 220 is approximately 6 to 10 mm. Due to the larger gap width, pressure-sensitive sensor tapes can be used in the seals or instead of them in order to be able to automatically interrupt a motorized closing movement of the sash if foreign bodies or limbs are jammed between the frame profile 200 and the sash profile 100.

FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of the outer edge of a window sash which is formed from the sash profile 100 according to the invention. The receiving area 30 runs in a channel-like manner between the inner wall area 20 and the outer wall area 10. A motor 301, which actuates a locking fitting 302, is inserted therein. A cable deflecting element 303 for two cable pulls 304 is arranged in the corner. With the motor 301 304 additional locking elements of the window sash can be actuated by the cables on the other ^sides'.

FIG. 4 shows, based on the profile according to FIG. 2, an additional embodiment of a wing profile system according to the invention, in which the cover element 51 is provided with rollers 53. The cover element 51 can be moved along the wing profile 100 by the rollers 53, for which purpose the rollers 53 are preferably provided with shoulders through which the cover element 51 with the rollers 53 is positively held on the projections 31, 32. However, it can also be provided that the cover element 51 is fixedly connected to the wing profile 100 and provided with several pairs of rollers 53 along its length, thereby creating a roller conveyor on the cover element 51 by means of any additional elements within the receiving area 30 can be shifted, as indicated by the dash-dotted line 307.

In addition, it can also be provided to attach a cable duct element 306 within the receiving area 30 and thus to facilitate the attachment of cables and / or to protect cables from the additional elements 307 which are movable within the receiving area 30.
