Definitions

• the invention relates to a window or sliding shutter comprising an adjusting device in order to move the window or sliding shutter from a first position parallel to a window into a second position without overlapping with the window, the window or sliding shutter being translucent.
• window or sliding shutters serve to achieve the desired darkening inside the room and, due to the reduction in the total energy transmittance through the window, to protect the interior from undesired heating by solar radiation.
• extensive darkening of the room is also accepted in order to reduce undesired heating of the room.
• the invention also relates to all shops in front of a transparent and thus light and energy-permeable section of the building, as can be achieved in the area of doors or glass elements that cannot be disclosed.
• the invention has for its object to propose a window or sliding shutter, the improved properties in Has reference to the total energy transmittance and the darkening of the room.
• the invention is based on the idea of designing a generic window or sliding shutter in such a way that the values of the light transmittance and the total energy transmittance are a function of the height of the window or sliding shutter.
• the shutter or sliding shutter can be a shutter that can be rotatably attached to the building, a sliding shutter that can be moved horizontally or vertically, or a folding sliding shutter.
• Such a window or sliding shutter which is arranged in front of a building window and thus parallel to a window, increasingly blocks the view upwards, while the view straight ahead and downwards remains largely undisturbed. In this way it is possible to save a significant portion of the
• the light transmission of the window or sliding shutter, as well as the g-value progressively decreases with height.
• the window or sliding shutter when the window or sliding shutter is closed, the view downwards or straight ahead is relatively unobstructed, while in the upper area of the window or sliding shutter there is a rapidly increasing reduction in the transparent area.
• the light transmittance of the window or sliding shutter and the g-value decrease linearly with increasing height of the window or sliding shutter.
• a progressive decrease in light transmission will be preferred for a window facing the south side, because the sun is relatively high in the south and therefore hits the building from above with a high angle of incidence.
• the linear decrease in light transmission can be the preferred alternative because the sun is lower in the east and west than in the south and a linear decrease in light transmission can achieve an improved overall effect of the variable sun protection ,
• the window or sliding shutter also has a strip in the upper end region, which has a high light transmittance and a high overall energy transmittance.
• This alternative design has the disadvantage that the solar energy input through the shop and into the room increases, but the advantage is that there is an increased incidence of daylight in the upper area of the window. An increased total energy transmittance is thus accepted in order to bring as much light as possible into the room in the area with the greatest incidence of daylight.
• This embodiment with an approximately 200 to 500 mm wide strip in the upper end region of the window or sliding shutter can be combined with the previously discussed design variants with an otherwise decreasing proportion of transparent surfaces below the strip.
• the window or sliding shutter is provided with a sun protection layer, the total energy transmittance of which changes over the height of the window or sliding shutter.
• the window or sliding shutter can have a screen printing layer.
• the screen printing layer can achieve the desired effect of a change in the light transmittance and the total energy transmittance as a function of the height of the window or sliding shutter via a variable proportion of enamel or a change in the screen printing color.
• the desired effect follows a reduction in light transmission with increasing height.
• the proportion of enamel in screen printing can increase above the height of the window or sliding shutter, as a result of which the proportion of transparent surfaces decreases with increasing height.
• a combination of a changing screen printing ink and a changing portion of enamel is also possible, for example to produce a progressive decrease in light transmission with the height as part of a linearly changing portion of enamel with the help of a color transition.
• a sheet metal can also be attached to the window or sliding shutter, the proportion of holes in which changes over the height.
• Another alternative design is to arrange a fabric on the window or sliding shutter that changes its density over height. This measure is also suitable for realizing the desired variation of the light transmittance and the total energy transmittance over the height of the window or sliding shutter.
• the shutter is designed as a sliding shutter and the adjusting device comprises at least one horizontally arranged adjustment rail
• the user can further vary the overall energy transmittance and the light transmission by closing the sliding shutter completely or only partially, i.e. is moved into a position parallel to the associated window. This can be done with a system with a rotatable or movable (vertical or horizontal) attachment of the store.
• FIG. 1 shows a schematic view of an embodiment of the invention with the sliding shutter closed
• FIG 2 shows the embodiment of Figure 1 with the sliding shutter partially open
• Fig. 3 is a schematic representation of various exemplary courses of the
• FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the window or sliding shutter according to the invention, which is designed in the form of a sliding shutter in front of a double-leaf window 12. Even if only one sliding shutter is shown in the following explanations, it should be clear that the same principles can also be implemented in a shutter that is pivotally attached to the window frame or the outside of the building.
• FIG. 1 shows a top view of the outside 10 of a building.
• Rails 14 are attached above and below the window sashes 12 in a conventional manner (not shown) on the outside of the building.
• the horizontally running rails 14 serve to guide and move the sliding shutters 16, which are provided with rollers 18, which in the present example engage on both sides of the rail and ensure smooth sliding guidance of the sliding shutters 16.
• the sliding shutters 16 can be operated by hand, but also with the aid of a motorized device.
• the sliding shutters 16 are each in front of the window sashes 12.
• the sliding shutters 16 have a height H and serve as variable sun protection.
• the sliding shutters 16 have transparent surfaces, the proportion of transparent surfaces falling above the height h of the sliding shutters 16.
• the sliding shutters are glass elements that become less permeable to sunlight with increasing height. Therefore, the TL value changes as a measure of the light transmittance over the height h of the sliding shutters 16 and also the g value as a measure of the total energy transmittance.
• the proportion can be set via the energy permeability of a sun protection layer and / or via the parameters of a screen printing layer located on the transparent surface of the sliding shutter.
• the screen printing color can change from light to dark with increasing height h and / or the enamel portion of the screen printing can increase above height h.
• FIG. 2 shows the arrangement according to FIG. 1 with the sliding shutters 16 partially open. It is clear how the rollers 18 move on the rails 14 and serve to open the sliding shutters. If this is desired by the user, intermediate positions between the closed state shown in FIG. 1 and an open state can also be set, depending on the weather or personal preferences. This measure allows the user to additionally adjust the light transmittance and, in connection with this, the total energy transmittance.
• Another embodiment is characterized by curve shape c.
• this exemplary embodiment there is an area with increased g-value and higher T L -value in the upper end area of the sliding shutter, while below this area there is a progressive decrease in the
