TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of windows, and in particular
to a mounting and fixing structure for an outer frame and an inner frame of a window.
BACKGROUND
[0002] There are various types of windows and frames for motorhomes. In the prior art, a
frame consists of an inner frame and an outer frame that are made separately. In addition
to the installation environment and other factors, a mounting and fixing system and
method of a window usually depend on the budge.
[0003] The outer frame is fixed to a wall opening of the motorhome from the exterior. The
inner frame is fixed to the wall from the interior. Then, the inner frame is fixed
to the outer frame through screws. For aesthetic needs, caps are usually used to cover
the screws in the inner frame.
[0004] However, the caps can be easily disconnected due to vibration during traveling. In
addition, the caps can be seen even though they are well mounted in the frame.
SUMMARY
[0005] To solve the problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a mounting
and fixing structure of an outer frame and an inner frame of a window. In the present
invention, parts are closely fitted to prevent from losing, and the inner frame and
the outer frame of the window are firmly mounted.
[0006] To achieve the objective, the present invention provides the following solution:
the present invention provides a mounting and fixing structure of an outer frame and
an inner frame of a window, which includes an outer frame part and an inner frame
part. The outer frame part is mounted at a wall opening while the inner frame part
is fitted to the outer frame part. U-shaped angle brackets are fixedly connected with
an upper crossbeam of the outer frame part. Recessed angle brackets are fixedly connected
with two side vertical beams and a lower crossbeam of the outer frame part. T-shaped
profiles are fixedly connected with an upper crossbeam of the inner frame part. O-shaped
profiles are fixedly connected with two side vertical beams and a lower crossbeam

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] A clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of
the present invention will be given below, in combination with the accompanying drawings
in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently, the embodiments described
below are a part, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other
embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments
of the present invention without inventive efforts fall within the scope of protection
of the present invention.
[0016] To solve the problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a mounting
and fixing structure of an outer frame and an inner frame of a window. In the present
invention, parts are closely fitted to prevent from losing, and the inner frame and
the outer frame of the window are firmly mounted.
[0017] To make the above objective, characteristics and advantages of the present invention
more understandable, the present invention will be further described below in detail
in combination with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0018] As shown FIG. 1 to FIG. 15, the present invention provides a mounting and fixing
structure of an outer frame and an inner frame of a window, which includes an outer
frame part and an inner frame part. The outer frame part is mounted at a wall opening
1 while the inner frame part is fitted to the outer frame part. U-shaped angle brackets
3 are fixedly connected with an upper crossbeam 2 of the outer frame part. Recessed
angle brackets 5 are fixedly connected with two side vertical beams 6 and a lower
crossbeam 7 of the outer frame part. T-shaped profiles 13 are fixedly connected with
an upper crossbeam of the inner frame part. O-shaped profiles are fixedly connected
with two side vertical beams and a lower crossbeam of the inner frame part. The T-shaped
profile 13 and the U-shaped angle bracket 3 are fitted together. The O-shaped profile
and the recessed angle bracket 5 are fitted together.
[0019] The U-shaped angle bracket 3 is fitted to an outer side of the upper crossbeam of
the outer frame part through a screw 4. The U-shaped angle bracket 3 includes a slot
8 located in one side of a main body of the U-shaped angle bracket. One side of the
slot 8 is a tilted side plate 9. The T-shaped profile 13 is inserted into the slot
8. One side of a main body of the T-shaped profile 13 is integrally connected with
a hanging plate 11. The hanging plate 11 is inserted into the slot 8 of the U-shaped
angle bracket 3.
[0020] The recessed angle brackets 5 are fitted to outer sides of the two side vertical
beams and an outer side of the lower crossbeam of the outer frame part through screws
4. A snapslot 10 is integrally arranged on one side of the recessed angle bracket
5. The O-shaped profile is inserted into the snapslot 10. An O-shaped bulge 12 is
integrally connected with one side of a main body of the O-shaped profile. The O-shaped
bulge 12 is fitted to the snapslot 10.
[0021] The slot 8 and the snapslot 10 are female connectors while the hanging plate 11 and
the O-shaped bulge 12 are male connectors. When the female connectors of the outer
frame part are right connected with the male connectors of the inner frame part, all
connectors are hidden in the inner frame and are invisible, thereby avoiding a problem
that a cap is lost due to the fact that the cap is exposed in the exterior in the
background.
[0022] To meet mounting requirements of the window, multiple U-shaped angle brackets 3 or
recessed angle brackets 5 can be respectively and uniformly distributed on the upper
crossbeam, the two side vertical beams and the lower crossbeam of the outer frame
part according to different specifications of the wall opening. The T-shaped profile
13 and the O-shaped profiles of the upper crossbeam, the two side vertical beams and
the lower crossbeam of the inner frame part are arranged respectively corresponding
to the U-shaped angle brackets 3 and the recessed angle brackets 5. When the windows
need to be mounted in the same specification of the wall openings but on different
thicknesses of walls of a motorhome, only different U-shaped angle brackets 3 and
the recessed angle brackets 5 need to be changed.
[0023] The mounting and fixing structure of an outer frame and an inner frame of a window
in the present invention has the following mounting steps:
a required specification of the outer frame of the window is mounted in the wall opening
of the motorhome from the exterior of the wall; the U-shaped angle brackets 3 and
the recessed angle brackets 5 are respectively fixed to the outer frame through the
screws 4 from the interior of the motorhome; the T-shaped profile 13 on the upper
portion of the inner frame is hung in the slots 8 of the U-shaped angle brackets 3
fixed to the upper portion of the outer frame; the O-shaped profiles of the inner
frame are snapped into the recessed angle brackets 5 fixed to the outer frame by properly
pressing the two sides and the lower portion of the inner frame, respectively (as
shown in FIG. 13/14). Therefore, the inner frame and the outer frame of the window
are mounted.
[0024] Several examples are used for illustration of the principles and implementation methods
of the present invention. The description of the embodiments is used to help illustrate
the method and its core principles of the present invention. In addition, a person
of ordinary skill in the art can make various modifications in terms of specific embodiments
and scope of application in accordance with the teachings of the present invention.
