  • Patent number: 9212514
    Abstract: In order to pivot the encasement provided with glass panes about the pivotal axis thereof in an opening frame, a mobile blade at the bottom of the frame is pressed down and the pivotal movement is initiated in one direction or the other after unlocking the spring blocks bearing the blades covering the grooves of the vertical profiles of the frame. The seal having a U profile slightly lifts the blade and the covering blade of the upper profile of the frame, whereby the pivoting of the frame is continued until, if the lower blade has been released in the meantime, the ledge of the flange of the upper profile of the encasement abuts the side edge of this same blade while the ribbed blade enters the opening of the U seal of the upper profile.

  • Patent number: 8806808
    Abstract: The sliding panel (1) comprise on at least one of sides thereof in the direction of the movement thereof, the reinforcing member (4) consisting of two aluminum sections (4a and 4b) connected by a polyamide thermal break (4c) and having two edges (4d and 4e) that define the longitudinal groove (22) having the same width from one end of the member (4) to the other end thereof. The guides (10) and the longitudinal inverted channel section (11) are placed in stationary positions on the benches (8 and 9) belonging to the profile sections of the frame (2) of the sliding window or sliding glass door. Each guide (10) comprises, in the center of the block (12), the vertical rod (20) having, on the top end thereof, ball bearings (21) that are located exactly between the edges (4d and 4e) and are located in the longitudinal channel (22) through which the panel (1) is guided in the movements thereof.

  • Patent number: 8578668
    Abstract: The invention relates to a framing for panels sliding in a opening in particular for windows and French windows. The invention provides a framing in which the different constituent elements of the fixed frame are entirely positioned above or below the outer surface of the opening so that the fixed frame does not disclose any element protruding to the outside of the opening. The opening comprises at least two trough slots. The framing comprises a fixed frame comprising displacement means and an intermediate element fixed to the panel, the intermediate element comprising at least two main longitudinal wings passing through the at least two through slots and cooperating with the displacement means so as to permit the displacement of the panel along the fixed frame.
