Definitions

  • the present invention relates to posts and bars for window or door frames or z.
  • a mullion and transom construction for example, for a framework of a facade
  • a compound of such posts and bars for example, for a mullion and transom construction
  • Posts and bars as used in window and door frames and frameworks for facades, are usually separate components that are to be joined together. This is done for example in posts and bars made of wood by means of wooden dowels, which are pressed into holes of each other to be connected posts and bars and / or glued. It is desired that gaps between connecting surfaces of posts and bars are avoided and completely touch the connection surfaces. Further, it is desirable that act between connecting surfaces of posts and bars forces, press the connecting surfaces against each other or provide a bias between the posts and bars to connect these joints without joints.
  • post-and-bolt connections are used, in which metal threaded inserts are arranged in bores of a wooden post and are screwed into these connecting pins.
  • the connecting pins have heads at their free ends.
  • In the bolt bores for receiving the connecting pins are arranged starting from the surface provided for connection to the post.
  • Perpendicular to these holes bores are arranged in the latch, which are each in communication with a bore for receiving a connecting pin and in which extends in the assembled state, the head of a connecting pin.
  • eccentric elements are arranged, which receive the heads of the connecting pins. Upon rotation of the eccentric elements forces are exerted on the heads of the connecting pins, which bias the bolt and the post against each other.
  • the holes in the bolt for receiving the eccentric elements must have a large diameter, which is usually in the range between 15 and 25 mm. This is necessary to accommodate eccentric elements with dimensions that provide a desired bias during rotation. To avoid damage to the bolt and to ensure a uniform surface finish, the holes with the therein arranged eccentric elements closed after connection of the post and bolt with flat elements. This is necessary because the eccentric elements must be accessible until the finished assembly.
  • the surface of a bolt provided for connection to a post is provided with a recess in which a first fastening plate made of metal is screwed.
  • a second mounting plate made of metal is screwed to an associated surface of the post.
  • To connect the post and the bolt the bolt is pushed onto the post so that structures extending from one attachment plate engage in U-shaped receptacles of the other attachment plate.
  • a bias between the post and the latch is produced by the fact that the structures extending from the one fastening plate engage each other when the bolt is slid on an inclined surface, thereby generating forces when the bolt is pushed, which presses the post and the bolt against one another. It is disadvantageous that this is laborious to attach the mounting plate of the bolt.
  • the tolerances to be maintained in locating the mounting plates are tight to ensure that the desired preload is created when the latch is slid on.
  • this post-and-bolt connection can only be used where the bolt can be pushed onto the post.

  • Fig. 11 and 12 show schematic cross-sectional views of a mullion-transom construction according to Fig. 8a and 8b a window or a façade in the region of fastenings of window panes or facade elements 68.
  • a latch 48 is connected to a post 46 by means of a connecting body 2 and a fixing pin 36.
  • a base profile 70 is attached on an outer side 58 of the bolt 48.
  • the base profile 70 has a receptacle 72 extending from the latch 48, which serves to fasten a retaining profile (see below) to the base profile 70 by means of a screw.
  • the receptacle 72 comprises on its outer side structures which interact positively with an insulating profile 74.
  • connection according to the invention makes it possible to use prefabricated bars at least in this respect (ie bars with prefabricated connecting body receptacles 54 and bores 56). Furthermore, when using the gate and bolt connection according to the invention, it is possible to provide the latch 48 so prefabricated that the base profile 70 and optionally glazing gaskets 76 and / or the insulating profile 74 are attached thereto.
  • the fixing pin 36 can, as in Fig. 12 recognizable, are introduced by the pre-mounted on the latch 48 elements in a bore 56 and fixing pin 4. This can be achieved by pre-assembled elements provided with correspondingly sized and dimensioned openings and / or by providing pre-assembled elements with corresponding openings in the assembly of posts and latches.
  • connection of post 46 and latch 48 to be adjusted (by) by means of locating pin 36 by further or less inserting locating pin 36 into bore 56. Removal of the fixing pin 36 is also possible despite elements attached to the latch 48 (eg base profile 70, insulating profile 74). Regardless of the extent to which the latch 48 is prefabricated, the opening 56 and the fixing pin 36 are concealed in the assembled state.
  • the fixing pin 36 protrudes, as in Fig. 12 shown, not from the latch 48 out, but closes flush with the latch 48 or ends within the bolt 48 and the bore 56. This prevents the fixing pin 36 acts as a cold or thermal bridge and deteriorates the insulation properties.
  • the post 46 and the latch 48 connected in the desired manner for example by adjustment of the fixing pin 36, in the region of the base profile 70 and the damping profile 74 existing spaces, which serve for example for introducing the fixing pin 36 into the bore 56, with sealing material (eg silicone) are filled in order to further improve the insulating properties.
  • Fig. 13 shows a view of a post 46 and a bolt 48 in the assembled state to build a curved mullion-and-transom construction.
  • uprights and lobes form a single or multiple curved surface (eg, by using curved latches) to form a single or multiple curved window or door front or façade front.
  • an opening 56 is formed from the top of the bolt 48 (ie, substantially perpendicular to the direction of the bore 56 of FIG 8 and 9 ).
  • the bore 56 may also be provided starting from the underside of the bolt 48. Otherwise, the explanations given above apply here accordingly.
  • a cross connection of a post 46 with two latches 48 is also shown for a curved mullion and transom construction.
  • Holes 56 are also formed here starting from the tops of the latch 48 in this. Incidentally, the above explanations also apply to this embodiment.
  • holes 56 allow it, comparable to those in Fig. 5 and 10 Selected Fixierstattmayn to define a set of pins of different lengths regardless of the dimensions of the latch 48, which provide a curvature of the mullion-and-transom construction.
  • the lengths of fixing pins are substantially of bolt widths (ie dimensions of the latch 48 perpendicular to the drawing levels of FIGS. 13 and 14 ) certainly.
  • Another advantage of this embodiment of the bores 56 is that the connections of the posts 46 and the latch 48 can still be adjusted even if 48 further elements are arranged on the bars. The openings 56 and thus the fixing pins 36 remain accessible even then.
  • covers to be arranged in the opening areas of the bores 56 can be used. Such covers can be glued or secured to the fixing pins, if they have, for example, a hexagon socket.
  • Fig. 15 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a mullion-transom construction according to Fig. 13 of a window or a façade in the region of fastenings of window panes or façade elements 68.
  • the reference numerals used in this figure denote elements which correspond to the elements shown in FIG Fig. 11 and 12 shown elements with the same reference numerals are comparable.
  • a connecting body 2 is arranged and secured by a fixing pin 36 which extends through a bore 56 in the latch 48 and a fixing pin 4 formed in the connecting body 2.
  • the fixing pin 36 ends within the bolt 48. Otherwise, the statements made above apply accordingly.
  • FIGS. 16 and 17 show, comparable to FIGS. 13 and 14 Connections of posts 46 and latches 48 for a curved mullion and transom construction. Unlike the embodiments of FIGS. 13 and 14 are in the embodiments of FIGS. 16 and 17 , comparable to the embodiments of 8 and 9 , Holes 56 are arranged starting from outer sides of the latch 48 in this. As explained above, this arrangement of the bores 56 has the advantage that the bore 56 and fixing pins 36 for securing connecting bodies 2 in the bars 48 are covered by elements which are attached to the bars 48, for example for fixing glass panes or façade elements , The length of fixing pins to be used in such a construction is determined by the respective depth of the bolt in the area of a bore 56. Again, it is possible to define a set of fixation pins of different lengths.
