Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a set of frames or "frame assembly" for fixtures
which can be effectively used to perform selectively opening and closing of fixtures
which can be opened in leaf and tilting fashion.
Background art
[0002] As is known, windows, or fixtures, which can be opened in leaf or tilting fashion,
comprise a fixed surrounding frame mounted integrally on a wall and a closure member
which is provided with a movable frame sealed by a sheet of transparent material -
generally standard glass or plate glass - and which is normally called a leaf. The
latter is supported by the fixed frame so as to be rotatable freely about a vertical
axis which is lateral for the movable frame, and a horizontal axis which extends along
a bottom side of the same fixed frame across a frame assembly.
[0003] As is known, there are frame assemblies of the fixed type, of the type comprising
two or more fixed hinges, which are installed on leaves which are to be opened solely
in leaf fashion. There are also frame assemblies of the adjustable type, which are
installed on windows which can be opened as required in leaf or tilting fashion according
to the existing needs. Both assemblies mentioned comprise a handle which serves to
perform opening and closure of the leaf on the fixed frame and which, only in assemblies
which can also be opened in tilting fashion, also allows the type of opening to be
selected.
[0004] The frame assemblies for leaf and tilting-type opening comprise devices for controlling
the method of opening the leaf, arranged on the handle side and on the upper side
of the leaf. The handle performs the changeover in a known fashion via a transmission
for the rectilinear motion, comprising an elongated body mounted on the leaf in a
position facing the handle so as to be movable solely with a rectilinear movement
as a result of the thrust of a tenon of the handle which is housed in a transverse
seat of the same elongated body. Therefore the elongated body acts as an interface
between the handle and an angular transmission mounted on the leaf at the vertex between
the handle side and the upper side, so as to change over the configuration of the
hinged mechanism; and, on the opposite side, between the handle and a push-rod which
is designed to support the leaf on the handle side in conditions where the leaf is
open in tilted fashion. The elongated body is connected to the push-rod and to the
angular transmission via thin flat bars, these bars having the sole function of transmitting
the linear motion of the tenon. Given what is described above, the elongated body
is movable through a specific linear interval corresponding to a rotation of 90° of
the handle, and the push-rod and the hinged mechanism are movable therewith. Such
a Frame assembly is known from GB 2 164 382 which corresponds to the preamble of claim
1.
[0005] The elongated body, the push-rod and a movable member of the angular transmission,
which are only movable in a longitudinal direction along the respective side of the
leaf, support in rigid fashion, and normally in an end position, longitudinal keys
or projections. The frame assembly also comprises a plurality of L-shaped transverse
locking members, called closing wedges, each of which is installed rigidly on the
fixed frame in a position facing the position assumed by each key when the handle
is in the respective closed leaf position. The L-shaped closing wedges are accessible
longitudinally with respect to the keys and are installed on the fixed frame in a
position such as to have, in plan view, the transverse striker consisting of the bent
end of the wedge partially overlapping the lateral face of the key directed inwards.
For this reason, longitudinal insertion of the keys in the closing wedges is only
possible after deformation of the L-shaped portion of the closing wedge. This deformation
of the L-shaped portion corresponds, obviously, to a transverse force on the keys
directed against the fixed frame and, therefore, the creation of a given pressure
value to which the leaf is subject and which keeps the same leaf in contact with the
fixed frame. The greater the pressure which acts on the leaf, the better the fluid
tightness provided by the window as a whole.
[0006] It should also be remembered that, in many applications, the elongated body has,
above the handle, a plurality of transverse seats open outwards for a transverse key
of a member known as false operation device, which is mounted rigidly on the leaf
above the same handle and which locks movement of the handle for safety reasons. The
transverse seats of the elongated body are arranged in series and spaced at intervals,
so that they can be engaged by the transverse key upon separation of the leaf from
the fixed frame of the window in a manner known from patent no. IT 1,266,241 in the
name of the Applicant.
[0007] As is known, upon assembly of the fixtures it may be necessary to make adjustments
to the fixed frames and/or leaves to allow assembly itself and correct closure. A
parameter which is often unsatisfactory and difficult to optimise during assembly
with the frame assemblies described above is the closing pressure, as a result of
unsatisfactory engagement between keys and closing wedges, in that it is excessive
or non-existent. In the first case the result is the impossibility of turning the
handle without damaging the frame assembly and in the second case the result is the
probable seepage of fluids.
[0008] This disadvantage has been partly solved by replacing, where possible, the keys with
cylindrical pins which have eccentric holes and a diameter comparable to the transverse
thickness of the keys and which are installed on associated movable members via a
threaded connection. In this way members designed to resist transverse forces have
been provided, said members having a locating surface whose distance from the axis
of the respective hole can be adjusted. It should be pointed out that the threaded
connection which keeps the pin in an optimum angular position is not designed to withstand
high torque values and therefore this solution is only admissible where the shearing
forces which the keys exchanges with the closing wedges are smaller. In particular
this replacement has been performed at the vertices of the leaf, and therefore on
the movable member of the angular transmission, and on the push-rod. This replacement
is not possible in the region of the elongated body, where the closing forces are
decidedly higher, owing to the greater rigidity of the middle portion of the handle
side.
[0009] In the light of that described above, it is easy to understand that in very high
leaves the closing pressure may not be even over the whole of the window frame. In
fact, even after adjustment of the angular position of the pins with eccentric hole,
the pressure could be correct at the vertices and too high or too low in the region
of the elongated body.
Disclosure of the invention
[0010] The object of the present invention is to provide a frame assembly for fixtures which
does not have the disadvantage described above and which is therefore able to guarantee
a substantially uniform closing pressure on the handle side.
[0011] A further object of the present invention is to provide a frame assembly for fixtures
which does not require substantial alterations to the leaf structure and fixed frame,
which operates in an easily understandable manner, is easy to install and is low-cost.
[0012] An additional object of the present invention is to provide a frame assembly which
is resistant to careless users and which can be installed according to the needs of
the user without requiring structural modifications to the members of the same assembly.
[0013] According to the present invention a frame assembly for fixtures is provided, the
characteristics of which are defined in Claim 1 below.
Brief description of the drawings
[0014] The invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings,
which illustrate a non-limiting example of embodiment thereof and in which:
- Figure 1 is an exploded, schematic, perspective view of a preferred embodiment of
a frame assembly according to the present invention;
- Figure 2 is an exploded view, on a larger scale and with parts removed for clarity,
of Figure 1 according to two methods of installation;
- Figure 3 is a side view, on a larger scale, of some methods of assembly of details
taken from Figure 2; and
- Figure 4 illustrates, in plan and side elevation views and on a larger scale, a detail
taken from Figure 1.
Description of the preferred embodiment(s)
[0015] 1 in Figure 1 denotes, as a whole, a set of frames or "frame assembly" for fixtures,
windows or French doors, intended to close off openings. The explicit reference to
a window 2 made by assembling extruded parts normally made of metal or the like has
been made for the sake of convenience and cannot nor must not be interpreted as an
intention to limit the general nature of the following description.
[0016] Still with reference to Figure 1, the window 2 comprises a fixed frame 3 and a movable
frame or leaf 4 which can be opened in leaf and tilting fashion. The assembly 1 comprises
support members designed to connect the leaf 4 so as to support it rotatably about
a vertical side and a horizontal side, in particular a pair of hinges 10 and a push-rod
11 mounted on opposite and vertical sides 12 and 13 in Figure 1. On the side where
the push-rod 11 is located, the assembly has an actuating handle 14 which is mounted
on the side 12 and is designed to determine the method of opening of the leaf 4. The
assembly 1 comprises, mounted on the leaf 4 on a respective upper side 16, a hinged
device 17 for controlling the slant of the leaf 4 in relation to said fixed frame
3. This device 17 is known as regards all its features, being normally used for example
in frame assemblies known as KAJ and produced by the Applicant; therefore it was decided
to represent it schematically in Figure 1 by means of a parallelepiped block and to
omit a description thereof, considering that the description of this device would
not add anything to the understanding of the present invention.
[0017] The push-rod 11 is mounted on the side 12 so as to slide axially from and towards
a position of engagement with a seat 18 formed in a bottom side 19 in Figure 1 of
the fixed frame 3, which is opposite the side 16 of the leaf 4. A hinge 10a of the
two hinges 10 is mounted on the fixed frame 3 in the region of the side 13 adjacent
to the corresponding upper vertex 20 of the leaf 4 and has an arm 21 which is coupled
prismatically to the leaf 4 in an end position via the device 17. The remaining lower
hinge 10b is mounted on the fixed frame 3 in the region of the side 13 adjacent to
the bottom vertex of the leaf 4.
[0018] The assembly 1 also comprises a first elongated body or pull-piece 25 which is coupled
to the side 12 prismatically in a known manner and not illustrated so as to be freely
slidable axially. The pull-piece 25 has a transverse housing 26 for an actuating member
or tenon 27 of said handle 14. As is known, the tenon 27 is connected to the grip
of the handle 14 by means of the arrangement, in between, of a sprocket-rack pair,
known and not illustrated, so as to be movable with pauses in two opposite directions
along the side 12. The pull-piece 25 is made by pressure die-casting or pressing and
is delimited axially (see Figure 4) by respective top and bottom free ends 28 and
29 and arranged symmetrically in relation to a transverse axis 33, The top end 28
has a coupling seat 30 which is transverse to the side 12 and is designed to couple
the pull-piece 25 with an upper arm 35 of a device 37 for transmission of the movement
of the tenon 27, and the bottom end 29 has a coupling pin 31 which is transverse to
the side 12, and is designed to couple the pull-piece 25 with a lower arm 36 of the
transmission device 37. In particular, the upper arm 35 is designed to actuate the
control device 17, changing it over, so as to differentiate between leaf-type opening
or tilting-type opening of the same leaf 4, while the lower arm 36 is designed to
actuate the movement of the push-rod 11 from and towards the respective position of
engagement with the seat 18. The pin 31 has a respective central axis 32.
[0019] With reference to Figure 2, the upper arm 35 comprises a second elongated body 40
which is coupled prismatically to the side 12 above the handle 14 in a known manner
not illustrated in Figure 1, so as to be freely slidable axially. In particular this
body 40, which is made by pressure die-casting or pressing, has at the bottom a pin
41 similar to the pin 31, by means of which the body 40 is coupled with the pull-piece
25 via the arrangement, in between, of at least one connecting bar 43. The body 40
has at the top a transverse hole 39 for coupling with an angular transmission 42,
to be described in greater detail hereinbelow. According to Figure 2, the bar 43 has,
for each of the respective end positions, a transverse hole 44 for the pin 31 of the
pull-piece 25 or for the pin 41 of the body 40, similar to the pin 31. In this way
the angular transmission 42, the second body 40, the bar 43 and the pull-piece 25
are connected together in series so as to transmit the movement of the tenon 27 to
the hinged device 17 and therefore differentiate between the type of opening of the
leaf 4.
[0020] Still with reference to Figure 2, the assembly 1 comprises a false operation device
50 mounted rigidly on the side 12, below the angular transmission 42, so as to co-operate
with seats 51 formed frontally in the body 40, arranged linearly at intervals, and
accessible transversely. Co-operation of the false operation device 50 with the seats
51 can take place via a transverse key 52 which is mounted on the false operation
device 50 and is movable transversely by means of the thrusting action of a spring
member 54 known and not illustrated, which member is contained inside the false operation
device 50 itself, as described in patent No. IT1,266,241 in the name of the Applicant,
and for this reason only illustrated schematically in Figure 1 alone. The interval
which separates the seats 51 corresponds to a rotation through 90° of the handle 14.
The key 52 is designed to engage transversely with any one of the seats 51 and therefore
block movement of the tenon 27 and the handle 14, through the locking in position
of the upper arm 35 of the transmission 37. The key 50, moreover, has internally an
end 53 bent in an L shape which is designed to strike against an internal face of
the fixed frame 3 while the leaf 4 is brought against the fixed frame 3 to close the
window 2. The key 52, therefore, is designed to be moved backwards against the thrust
of the spring member 54 until it frees the seat 51 currently engaged. Vice versa,
during opening of the leaf 4, according to any one of the types of opening, the key
52 is pushed into a position of engagement with one of the seats 51, on condition
that the body 40 has one of the respective seats 51 in a position facing the key 52.
In respect of that described above, this occurs if and only if the handle 14 is in
one of the three known and not illustrated working positions, and in particular the
closed position, where the grip 55 is vertical downwards; the position for leaf-type
opening, where the grip 55 is horizontal; and the position for leaf-type opening,
where the grip 55 is vertical upwards. In the light of that described above, it can
be said that the false operation device 50 is a safety device, designed to disable
selectively rotation of the handle 14 and actuation of the two transmission arms 35
and 36 by means of engagement of the transverse safety key 52 with one of the seats
51.
[0021] The angular transmission 42 comprises a bracket 56 mounted rigidly on the leaf 4
at the respective vertex 57, arranged between the sides 12 and 16, and a flexible
bar 58 which engages with the bracket 56 in freely sliding fashion so as to transmit
a movement of translation between the two concurrent sides 12 and 16, and therefore
between the handle 14 and the device 17, and therefore perform, selectively, actuation
thereof. The flexible bar 58 has at the bottom a coupling pin 59 - similar to the
pin 31 - designed to engage with the upper hole 44 of the bar 43 or the hole 39 of
the body 40.
[0022] As shown in Figure 2, the body 40 and the bar 43 are axially interchangeable with
each other so as to allow assembly of the false operation device 50, and therefore
of the respective key 52, in any of the positions adjacent to the angular transmission
42 or adjacent to the tenon 27. As already mentioned, the fact that the key 52 can
be positioned at a considerable distance from the handle 14 means that any actuation
of the key 52 positioned there can only be the result of an action performed in a
deliberate manner. In fact, since the false operation device 50 is positioned adjacent
to an upper vertex of the window 2, immediately below the transmission 42, the key
52 can only be reached by using a ladder. Therefore the frame assembly 1 which has
the separate pull-piece 25 and the body 40 separated physically and located at a considerable
distance from one another, solves the technical problems originally proposed effectively,
economically and without the need for any special action. Therefore the use of a frame
assembly 1 frees the installer from the obligation to place the false operation device
50 in a position facing the handle 14.
[0023] With particular reference to Figure 4, the pull-piece 25 has the housing 26 for the
tenon 27 in the middle and, at the respective upper end 28, a longitudinal key 60
which has a given transverse thickness S1 and is designed to engage internally with
an L-shaped striker or closing wedge 61, mounted on the fixed frame 3, so as to determine,
during use with the leaf 4 closed, a closing pressure with a first given value between
the leaf 4 and the fixed frame 3. The fixed frame 3 has a plurality of closing wedges
61 in the region of a respective internal L-shaped surface 62 which faces the sides
12 and 16, of which only three can be seen in Figure 1. In particular, Figure 1 shows
a first closing wedge 61 mounted facing the push-rod 11, a second wedge 61 mounted
facing the key 60, and a third wedge 61 mounted facing the flexible bar 58 of the
angular transmission 42.
[0024] The pull-piece 25 also has, on an opposite side to the longitudinal key 60, an additional
longitudinal key 63 which differs from the key 60 in terms of the value of the transverse
thickness S2, which is distinct from S1, so as to determine, in association with the
wedge 61, a closing pressure with a second given value, distinct from the first value
mentioned above. It should be noted that the thickness S1 is greater than the thickness
S2 and that the housing 26 of the tenon 27 is of the through type, in such a way that
the pull-piece 25 can be coupled with the tenon 27 itself in two possible orientations.
In particular the pull-piece 25 can be selectively oriented with the respective key
60 arranged at the top so as to co-operate with the respective closing wedge 61 and
determine a higher closing pressure, or with the key 63 arranged at the top, so as
to determine a lower closing pressure. The two orientations are therefore reciprocally
angled at 180°, in such a way as to determine, during use, a given closing pressure
value, chosen as required from the first and second given pressure values. It should
be noted that the pull-piece 25 is symmetrical, both in relation to the transverse
axis 33 and in relation to a longitudinal axis 64, and that the difference in pressure
upon closure is defined by the half difference S1-S2, which represents the distance
between the two positions of the leaf 4 in closed conditions.
[0025] So as to facilitate use of the pull-piece 25, and distinguish, without possibility
of confusion, between the two keys 60 and 63, and consequently the required thickness
from the two thicknesses S1 and S2, the two end portions 28 and 29 have been denoted
respectively by the symbols + and -, respectively indicating the greater and smaller
thickness of the keys 60 and 63.
[0026] As regards that described above, it should be noted that the pull-piece 25 has, on
opposite sides of the housing 26, mechanical elements 60 and 63 which are designed
to perform the same functions, and therefore the pull-piece 25 is functionally symmetrical
in relation to a longitudinal axis 64 of the same housing 26.
[0027] For reasons of completeness it should be pointed out that, with reference to Figure
4, the pull-piece 25 has, on opposite sides of a respective longitudinal central axis
70, slide elements 71 arranged in pairs on opposite sides of the housing 26 of the
tenon 27. The pull-piece 25 is coupled with the leaf 4 between two longitudinal ribs
72 with an overturned L shape, parallel one to the other and of the known type, formed
in the side 12 of the leaf 4. Only one of these ribs 72 is visible in Figure 1 for
reasons of clarity. Moreover this rib 72 has been deliberately interrupted in the
region of the handle 14, again for reasons of clarity.
[0028] The use of the assembly 1 can be easily understood from what has been described above
and does not require further explanations.
[0029] It should be noted that the assembly 1 comprises at least two other closing wedges
61 mounted on the fixed frame 3. The first wedge 61 is installed in a position facing
an adjustable and eccentric pawl 80 fixed via a threaded connection to the bar 58
between the hole 59 and the vertical arm of the bracket 56, and the second wedge 61
is installed in a position facing an adjustable and eccentric pawl 81, substantially
identical to the pawl 80 and fixed via a threaded connection to the push-rod 11. Actuation
of the two transmission arms 35 and 36 causes simultaneous movement, by equal amounts,
of the upper end 28 of the pull-piece 25 and the pawls 80 and 81 from and towards
a position of engagement with the respective closing wedges 61, so as to maximise
tightness between the leaf 4 and fixed frame 3.
[0030] Finally it is clear that modifications and variations can be made to the frame assembly
for fixtures described and illustrated here without thereby departing from the scope
of protection of the present invention.
