Definitions

  • Glass railing constructions today often weigh some 20-25 kg per running metre. If two persons without lifting equipment shall be able to handle such constructions, they can be no more than 2 m each, which is a drawback for different reasons, among other things that the horizontal aluminium profiles will have many joints. This is not acceptable neither from an aesthetic nor from a user viewpoint.
  • Panels of glass or the like are provided at two opposite sides with special panel profiles by tape or adhesive indoors in a clean, dry and warm environment.
  • the other two sides do not have any profiles.
  • Other panel materials can be used, the requisite being that there are plane surfaces for attaching the panel profiles.
  • the length of the elements is determined by the weight of the facing material and by architectural desires and may preferably be 1.5-3 m.
  • the balcony railings are manufactured in long lengths, and the two mounting profiles, of which one is situated at the lower edge of the facing panel and the other one at the upper edge of the facing panel, are so constructed that the facing panels can be carried thereby via the panel profiles.
  • the balcony railings are first mounted to the balcony slab, whereupon one facing panel at a time is mounted.
  • the panel mounting can easily be accomplished by two persons from the balcony slab, and no scaffold, crane or skylift is needed.
  • suction cups may be used, so that the risk for loosing panels is avoided.
  • Figs 1 and 2 illustrate an example of a facing arrangement for a balcony according to the prior art.
  • Glass panels 1 are mounted in respective frameworks 2, for example of aluminium profiles, to form facing elements. These elements are mounted to a balcony railing 3, for example in the way illustrated in Fig 2 .
  • a glass panel 1 is in Fig 2 shown mounted in an aluminium profile framework 2 by means of rubber elements 4.
  • the framework 2 is attached by means of rivets or screws 5 to mounting brackets 6 attached to the balcony railing 3.
  • Fig 3 is a view corresponding to Fig 1 of a facing arrangement for a balcony according to the invention. It appears that the glass panels 1 here are not individually mounted in any framework and accordingly that their vertical side edges can be in direct contact with each other.
  • Fig 4 shows a balcony slab 10 with a balcony post 11 (attached by an attachment element 12) and a handrail 13.
  • the balcony railing thus consisting of several balcony posts 11 and a handrail 13 is preferably premounted in a factory.
  • horizontal profiles 14 are attached to the balcony posts 11 and carry one or more glass panels 1.
  • Figs 5-8 show a first embodiment of the invention and illustrate consecutive steps in the mounting of glass panels 1. (It is to be understood that these panels 1 can be manufactured of different materials and that the continued use of the term glass panel has no limiting effect on the scope of this description.) For the sake of clarity, reference numerals are sparsely used in these Figures.
  • an upper mounting profile 15 and a lower mounting base profile 16 are mounted to the balcony posts 11 by means of screws 17 or the like.
  • These profiles - like all other profiles mentioned below - are preferably made of aluminium. Alternatively, however, these profiles may be made of PVC, composite material or even stainless steel plate.
  • These mounting profiles 15 and 16 may have the same length as the balcony railing or the handrail 13 up to a maximum length of say 7 m. The limiting factor for the length may be the possibility to paint or surface treat long profiles.
  • the positions of the mounting profiles heightwise may vary depending on the circumstances.
  • the upper mounting profile 15 may be mounted up to the handrail 13 but probably not more than 800 mm over the balcony slab 10, whereas the lower one 16 can be placed higher up on the balcony posts 11, probably however not higher than at the upper surface of the balcony slab 10.
  • a bottom mounting profile 18 is snapped onto the lower mounting base profile 16. By the use of the bottom mounting profile over the lower mounting profiles 16, 18 it will be possible to conceal the mounting screw 17.
  • the two lower mounting profiles 16, 18 can below be referred to collectively as the lower mounting profile 16, 18.
  • the bottom mounting profile 18 may preferably be provided as shown with an internal rubber strip 19 for sealing purposes.
  • Each glass panel 1 is at a factory provided with an upper panel profile 20 and a lower panel profile 21. These panel profiles 20, 21 are attached at room temperature by means of tape 22, adhesive or the like. If another panel material than glass is used, a mechanical attachment may be provided.
  • the length may be limited to 1-2 m, so that the weight of each panel does not exceed 50 kg, which is the maximum allowable weight for two persons to handle. Longer lengths are possible for lighter materials.
  • the prefabricated balcony railing is mounted on the edge of the balcony slab 10, as shown in Fig 4 , or on top of the slab. As the facing elements are not mounted, it will be easy to mount the railing by the balcony posts, in spite of the fact that the lower mounting profile 16, 18 may be situated below the attachment element 12.
  • Traditional balcony railings have their facings factory mounted. In this case the attachment element 12 must be premounted on the post 11, which means that three persons instead of two are needed, because two persons must carry the balcony railing, whereas the third person attaches the attachment element 12 to the balcony slab. Alternatively, distance elements for the facing must be used, but this gives the railing a clumsy and ugly appearance.
  • glass panels 1 can be mounted one by one by being lifted over the handrail 13 and lowered down towards the lower mounting profile 16, 18.
  • the premounted rubber strip 19 is designed so as not to be folded down during this insertion, and it can also be treated for providing as little friction as possible.
  • the lower panel profile 21 and the lower mounting profile 16, 18 may as shown be provided with cooperating beveled surfaces for guiding and for forcing the glass panel 1 towards the rubber strip 19, so that an adequate water sealing will be provided.
  • the upper edge of the glass panel 1 is now brought in against the upper mounting profile 15, so that the upper panel profile 20 may engage a ball shaped part thereof as shown and may be hooked on.
  • the glass panel 1 comes to rest against the bottom of the mounting profile 16, 18, as shown in Fig 7 , and does not hang on the upper mounting profile 15, because the tape 22 cannot withstand high shear forces.
  • the upper mounting 15, 20 accordingly only holds the glass panel 1 to the balcony post 11 and negotiates horizontal forces.
  • Fig 7 the mounting of the glass panel 1 is completed in itself.
  • the mounting is preferably supplemented with a cover profile 23.
  • This cover profile 23 may or may not be provided with a sealing rubber strip 24.
  • the cover profile 23 can be snap locked to the upper mounting profile 15 by the respective appearances, as is shown in Figs 7 and 8 .
  • the cover profile 23 has the double purpose of locking the construction and to provide a better appearance.
  • Corners of the horizontal aluminium profiles can be mitered or be mounted together by means of special corner fittings.
  • the horizontal aluminium profiles may be provided with end covers, that are connected by screws or snap locking.
  • Vertical joints between the facing elements may be open with a 2-3 mm distance between neighboring panels of stable materials, like glass, but it is also possible to use sealing strips of plastic or metal for obtaining a closed construction. Joints are normally placed at the balcony posts.
  • the shown and described construction may also be used on the inside of the balcony posts.
  • the lower edge of the balcony facing should preferably be 30-50 mm over the balcony slab.
  • FIG. 9 A second embodiment is shown in Fig 9 .
  • the background is the same as for the first embodiment.
  • the second embodiment there is an upper mounting profile 30 and a lower mounting profile 31, both horizontal and both attached to balcony posts 11 by screws 32.
  • the upper mounting profile 30 is preferably provided with a cap 30', both for giving a better appearance and for protecting the construction.
  • the glass panel 1 is provided at a factory with an upper panel profile 33 and a lower panel profile 34. These profiles 33, 34 are preferably attached by means of tape 35 or adhesive.
  • the mounting is easily performed in that the glass panel 1 with its panel profiles 33, 34 is brought towards and slightly above the mounting profiles 30, 31 on the balcony railing and is then lowered somewhat, so that the profiles come into engagement with each other to the position shown in Fig 9 .
