Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the coating of the metal frames constituting the bay windows of buildings, in particular windows, with a rigid heat-insulating lining, made of wood or the like.
  • the first, relatively expensive and generally not very easy to implement, consists in eliminating the thermal bridges inside the framework itself.
  • the connecting elements are members adapted to the configuration of the grooves intended to receive them by their ends and having for this purpose a general "I" shape.
  • the connecting element thus defines an axial core connecting in their middle two wings parallel to each other and perpendicular to said core.
  • These wings having a rectangular conformation of width equal to that of the opening of the groove and of length close to the width of the receiving cavity, constitute, after introduction into the groove, clamping pads by pivoting of the element d '' a quarter turn around its axis.
  • the core has in its middle, a prominence acting as a spacer for maintaining the distance of the profiles to be joined and whose two flat side faces, perpendicular to the axis, constitute bearing surfaces against which strongly come s '' apply the lips of the grooves under the clamping effect of the pads.
  • This central prominence also serves as a grip by its front surface to a tightening tool allowing the rotation of the element around its axis.
  • the second known technique succeeds in eliminating direct contact between the atmosphere of the room and the metal frame by using the latter as a support for a rigid insulating lining, for example a wooden or plastic covering, which is fixed on the metal wall facing the room.
  • the fixing of the lining on the support frame is generally carried out by gluing.
  • This fixing is ensured by two-part fixing means, a simple “T” part, engaged in a corresponding groove in the metal profile and held at the other end, in a second part formed by a metal eyelet fixed by screwing in the “wood” part and serving as a joint to compensate for expansion.
  • the composite structure thus proposed appears unsuitable for replacement quick and easy glazing if necessary, since the frame function is provided by the wooden part which then serves as a support by fixing the metal profile.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a means for fixing the linings which avoids the drawbacks and handicaps of known insulation solutions.
  • Another object of the invention is to be able to produce a simple, robust assembly, within the reach of all and requiring no special equipment or tools.
  • Yet another object is to allow great speed and simplicity of the operations necessary for replacing the glazing.
  • the invention relates to a composite structure for window frames of buildings, in particular windows, comprising a metal support profile forming a frame for the glazing and a rigid thermal insulation liner fixed at a distance on the profile to using a plurality of detachable connecting elements in the form of which the end wings engage in “T” shaped recesses formed opposite on the profile and on the lining and constitute pads tightening by pivoting around the axial core of the connecting element connecting the two wings and having a prominence which acts as a spacer for keeping the lining away from the connecting elements has lateral faces projecting from the limits of the volume defined between the end wings, in that said wings have, on their two internal lateral half-faces turned opposite the prominence, an obliquity so that the spacing e defined between the protuberance and an end wing goes narrowing when it is traversed in the opposite direction to that of the tightening, and in that the lining constitutes a glazing bead by its edge portion adjacent to the glazing.
  • the obliquity of the inner half-faces of the end wings extends over the entire width of said wings.
  • the prominence on the middle part of the central core is in an offset position towards the shoe intended to engage in the metal frame.
  • the central core has a diameter equal to the width of the end wings.
  • the heart of the invention resides in a remote assembly between the metal frame and an insulating lining forming a glazing bead using a part designed both as a wedge spacing by its central part and a clamping cam function acting separately but simultaneously on the profiles to be assembled by its two end wings cooperating with its central part.
  • the central spacer also serves as a gripping member for a tightening tool and, in a preferred embodiment, a quarter turn operation of the axis of the connecting piece is sufficient to complete the assembly of properly positioned elements.
  • the tightening tool can also be a simple flat wrench quite banal.
  • the liner removably attached to the metal frame acts as a glazing bead.
  • the spacing between the metal frame and the insulating lining is of great thermal interest. This spacing defines, in fact, an air space, further confined by the play of the various metal seals and baffles and which, as is known, is therefore the best thermal insulator after the vacuum.
  • the first characteristic mentioned specifically aims to compensate for even temporary deformations of the assembly which could result from the cantilever effect of the heavy lining (wood several centimeters thick) fixed at a distance on the metal profile.
  • the second characteristic aims to allow the operator to benefit from a high sensitivity during tightening, which also allows him to properly balance his effort and easily detect the end of tightening.
  • the connecting element as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, consists of a single piece 1 molded from reinforced plastic, such as a polyamide (PVC for example) loaded with glass fibers.
  • reinforced plastic such as a polyamide (PVC for example) loaded with glass fibers.
  • This part has a general "I" conformation, the central cylindrical core 3 of which connects in the middle two end wings 4 and 5, mutually parallel and perpendicular to the core 3.
  • the axis of rotation of the element has been symbolized at 6 and the arrow in FIG. 1 indicates the direction of rotation.
  • the central core comprises, in a position slightly offset towards the wing 4, a protrusion consisting of a square plate having two large flat side faces 21 and 22 perpendicular to the core 3 and a front surface 23 sufficiently wide to offer a correct grip with a tool, such as a wrench, intended to rotate the element around the axis 6.
  • the wings 4 and 5 which, as said, constitute clamping pads, have inner faces shaped as a double clamping cam 7, 7 'and 8, 8'.
  • the inclination is kept in the same direction between the half-faces placed opposite one another on the same side of the core 3, on the two pads, namely the two half-faces 7 and 8 of on the one hand and the two half-faces 7 ', 8' on the other.
  • FIG. 1 An essential characteristic of the invention clearly appears in FIG. 1 in particular, where it can be seen that the lateral faces 21 and 22 of the plate are largely projecting with respect to the end pads, or if one prefers with respect to the volume limits defined between these two pads.
  • the end pads are intended to be engaged and then rotated in receiving means provided for this purpose on the metal support profile and on the heat-insulating lining and which are formed by undercuts.
  • undercuts can follow one another at more or less regular intervals on the parts to be joined together or more advantageously consist of a continuous “T” groove, as is the case for the fine assembly with composite structure shown in the figure. 5.
  • This figure shows, in partial section, a window whose metal frame is an aluminum profile in two parts, respectively constituting the frame 11 taken in the masonry 12 by sealing lugs 13 and the opening frame 14 on which is fitted with triple glazing 15.
  • the exterior and the enclosure of the room fitted with the window have been represented respectively by the letter (E) on the left of the figure and by the letter (I) on the right.
  • the metal framework 11, 14 is coated at a distance on the inner face with a rigid heat-insulating lining 16 which, in the example considered, is made of wood.
  • This lining consists of a part 17 attached to the frame and a part 18 attached to the opening.
  • the part 18 of the opening cooperates with the part 17 of the frame by means of an elastic seal 19 which ensures the seal.
  • the part 18 constitutes, by its end close to the glazing, a glazing bead, where a seal 20 cooperates with its counterpart 24 fixed opposite on a bearing surface of the metal frame to ensure the maintenance of the triple glazing 15.
  • a central seal 25 is also provided between the opening and the frame.
  • This seal is taken in the space separating the frame 11 from its lining 17 and is supported at its end on a metal surface 26 of the opening.
  • the seal 25 creates a watertight partition between a first pneumatic isolation chamber 27 adjacent to the exterior (E) and a second pneumatic isolation chamber 28 separated from the interior 1 by the insulating lining 16.
  • the two wooden parts 17 and 18 constituting the insulating lining are fixed at a distance on the frame and on the opening respectively using the connecting elements 1 described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • receiving means constituted in the example considered by "T" grooves 32 and 33, have been provided facing each other respectively in the metal profile and in the part 18 of the lining to each receive an end wing 4 or 5 of the element 1.
  • the lips 34 and 35 of the grooves define an opening whose width is slightly greater than the width of the end wings 4 and 5 which engage therein.
  • the difference in width is limited to the simple functional clearance necessary to allow the introduction of the wings.
  • the thickness of the lips is dimensioned as a function of the spaces 9 or 10 which receive them respectively so as to be, on the one hand, slightly less than the maximum width of the spaces to allow the engagement of the wings 4 and 5 on the inner face of the lips by rotation about the axis 6, and, on the other hand, slightly greater than the minimum width of the spaces to ensure the desired tightening effect during rotation in the direction indicated by the arrow.
  • the half-faces 7, 7 'and 8, 8' of the wings, or pads, 4 and 5 are shaped as an inclined ramp along the entire width of the pads, so that, as will already be the case understood, the minimum and maximum widths of each space 9 and 10 are defined by the distances separating the central support plate 2 from the edge closest to the faces 7, 7 ′, 8, 8 ′ of the pads and from the furthest edge respectively.
  • the difference between these two edges can advantageously be of the order of 0.3 to 0.5 mm for a shoe about 1 cm wide.
  • the wooden insulating piece 18 is then placed in the engagement by its “T” groove 33 around the shoe 5 of each element 1 until the outer surface of the lips 35 comes into contact with the lateral face 22 of the plates. support 2.
  • the cavities of the grooves 32 and 33 advantageously have a width at least equal to the length of the pads that they receive, a maximum clamping effect is achieved, and therefore an optimal connection, when the element has pivoted 90 °.
  • This arrangement allows for a relatively lower mechanical strength of the wood compared to that of the metal frame.
  • the spacings between the plate 2 and the two end pads 4 and 5 can be freely chosen and independently for the frame and the lining.
  • the connecting element 1 is a part of relatively simple shape, which can be produced, at low cost, in large series and at high rate using multi-cavity molds.
  • the assembly and disassembly of the lining is carried out with extreme simplicity and ease, both by the tools to be used and by the operating mode itself.
  • Analogous to a building kit, assembly (or disassembly) can be carried out both directly in the manufacturing workshops and at and by the user himself, and this for both new windows and for existing windows.
  • the “metal-plastic-wood” composite structure obtained by the invention is very solid and responds perfectly to all the contractual charges in the construction of building bays.
  • Figure 3 shows in this regard, a remote connecting element whose central prominence of the core is no longer constituted by a plate, but by a thick radial bulge 41 of the core 3, the lateral support faces are in the form flat crowns 42, 43 and whose circular front surface 44 has been knurled to ensure a good grip on a tool, which in this case is a pliers.
  • the bulge has been replaced by two plates 45 and 46 (similar to plate 2 in Figures 1 and 2) separated by a neck 47 of square section and serving as a grip to a flat key.
  • the end pads 4 and 5 are not necessarily parallel to each other, but may very well be angularly offset by 90 degrees, in which case the preassembly operation must be carried out by orienting the receiving grooves at 90 ° one in relation to the other.
  • the invention relates to the fixing of thermal insulation lining of any shape or nature, not only of wood, but also of plastic or other material, insofar as this lining has a certain rigidity giving it sufficient mechanical strength to allow the remote fixing using connecting elements.
  • the application of the invention is not limited to windows, but also extends to doors, skylights, etc., and in general to any bay window with metal frames both on the exterior facades of buildings than on interior partitions.
  • connection obtained is reversible, therefore non-final and easily removable.
  • the removable nature of the connecting element makes it possible to offer customers a wide choice of metal profile-lining combinations, both in the quality or nature of the materials and in their respective colors, and this within minimum manufacturing and without requiring excessive stock.
  • customers will be able to exercise a well-considered choice, thanks to tests that they can perform on multiple combinations from a single set of profiles and a single set of presentation liners.
