(54) ONE-PIECE WINDOW


(57) The invention relates to a one-piece window consisting of a frame or sash (2) and closure sheet(s) (3) which are obtained by means of moulding inside a mould that is suitably dimensioned for the final configuration thereof, and comprising closure and immobilising means.




Description

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION



[0001] The present specification refers to a Patent of Invention application corresponding to a one-piece window, the object of which is based on being configured as a window which may be applied in any appropriate space, according to the size of the window itself, which may vary its dimensions according to the type of mould used for the dimensions thereof, being configured as a window which is established and manufactured in accordance with the pertinent casting of the material which makes up said window in a mould, which when unlocked brings about a window body which may be circular, rectangular or square, obtained in a single piece, in which the pertinent opening and closure elements are fixed, equally obtained in a one-piece manner, without the use of any type of profiling to configure the window frame or sash, as well as for the closure elements.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION



[0002] This invention has its application within the industry dedicated to the manufacture of windows and the like.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION



[0003] The applicant is aware of the current existence of a great number of windows, made in wood, and iron, plastic and aluminium profiling, which are manufactured by welding or fixing them together and even by tongue and grooving in the case of wooden windows, resulting after installation in the formation of the window frame or sash to which the closure elements made up of the sliding or tilting sheets are fixed.

[0004] However, the applicant is not aware of the current existence of any window configured in one-piece, that is, that both the frame and the closure sheets thereof are manufactured in a single body, forming the body on the one hand, and the closure elements on the other, and all these obtained within a mould, with the possibility of being manufactured in aluminium, plastic or any other suitable material, and which permits the moulding thereof.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION



[0005] The one-piece window set forth by the invention is configured as a solution to the existing current drawbacks, specifically facilitating both the assembly of the window itself and the elements forming it.

[0006] More specifically, the one-pieces window object of the invention is made up of a frame, sash or ring, obtained according to the required measurements within a mould, which after mould release results in obtaining said frame to which the closure elements are fixed in the form of latches or retaining links, fixing the parts constituting the closure itself, such as the sheets, and consequently obtaining a one-piece body which is fixed on the face of the wall or suitable site by conventional means.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS



[0007] In order to complement the description being made and with the object of aiding towards a better understanding of the features of the invention, a set of drawings is enclosed with the present specification as an integral part thereof, in which in an illustrative and non-limiting manner the following has been represented:

Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the object of the invention, corresponding to a one-piece window, in which the closure part is partially open.

Figure 2 shows a front elevational view of the object shown in Figure 1, in which the closure part is totally open and in an upright position.

Figure 3 finally shows a view of the invention with the closure part in its locking position, and the fixing elements equally coupled.


PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION



[0008] In view of these figures, it can be observed how the one-piece window (1) is made up of a frame or sash (2) made of a one-piece body and obtained within a mould by casting of the constituting material, independently from whether this is plastic or metal, resulting in the inner area of a closure part or sheet (3), and arranging the frame or sash (2) with stepping (4) and (4') cooperating to maintain the sheet in an open position and preventing the displacement thereof towards the lower portion, limiting the rotation thereof.

[0009] Fixed on the frame (2) is a retention element (6) which in cooperation with the closure body (5) having a latch (7), generates the immobilisation of part (3) on the frame or sash (2), having a handle in order to facilitate both mobilisation of the latch (7) and for the pulling and opening of the part (3).

[0010] Finally, it must be indicated that the frame or sash (2) has projections (9) on two opposite areas in the way of semicircular areas preventing part (3) from moving outwardly on either side, remaining perfectly locked by the cooperation of the latch (7) projecting from the carrying element (5).


Claims

1. A one-piece window, intended for being fixed over existing spaces in inner walls, exterior walls and wall faces, characterised by being made up of a frame or sash (2) and a closure part (3), both manufactured in metallic or plastic materials, obtained by moulding inside an appropriately sized mould, the frame or sash (2) having two projections of semicircular configuration located at opposite points within the frame or sash (2), internally coupling a closure sheet (3), provided with an element (5) carrying a latch (7) which is mobilised by means of a pulling element (8) and is coupled in a retaining part (6) fixed to the frame or sash (2).
