Abstract: The invention relates to a facade structure having an inner bearer for at least one plate element. Holders engage behind the plate element in its edge region, and they are mounted in the bearer so as to be adjustable relative thereto. To ensure constant centering of the plate element according to the invention, the holder is pivotable within a plane lying horizontally and perpendicularly to the vertical plate element and is pressed into its engagement position by a resilient member in such a way that a retaining projection thereof engages behind the edge of the plate element at a constantly equal depth.

Abstract: A facade system of metal sections which receive plate-shaped elements between them such as fixed glazing, sashes, panels or the like which are each provided with an encircling auxiliary frame located exclusively on the room side and connected by releasable connecting means to main frames having means for attachment to a structure, in which:(a) the facade system consists of several separately formed and individually manipulable main frames into each of which at least one auxiliary frame is inserted;(b) on the room side, the main and auxiliary frames form a flat reveal extending perpendicularly to the facade plane;(c) inside this flat reveal, the main and auxiliary frames are spaced a clearance distance from one another which is closed air-tight by an encircling first seal, which simultaneously covers the releasable connecting means between the main and auxiliary frames;(d) the main frames are air-tightly connected on the room side to the respectively adjacent main frames by a second seal; and(e) the weather se

Abstract: A frame structure consisting of two compound units provided with mutually facing grooves undercut on either side, in which the first compound unit can be attached in a desired position to the second compound unit via a detachable coupling which comprises a turning part which can be turned from the outside manually via a handle about its longitudinal axis by about 90.degree. into its coupling or decoupling position, and which in its coupling position positively engages by means of a T-head at its one end in one of the two grooves and by means of anchoring means at its other end in the other of the two grooves and can be locked in this coupling position by means of an anti-rotation device.

Abstract: A facade wall with a loadbearing skeleton of vertical posts and cross members inserted between the posts and connected at right angles thereto, which together form skeleton panels, provided with a seal, for receiving one plate element each, the post profile comprising in cross-section a room-side box profile portion and a weather-side head profile portion of smaller width and having on either side of the head profile a vertically extending seal retaining groove in the weather-side box profile surface. Lower and upper seal retaining grooves are provided in the cross member on the weather side. The cross member profile comprises a box profile portion and a head profile portion, which is arranged between the two horizontal seal retaining grooves and has horizontal seal retaining grooves in its upper and lower sides, each of which grooves is aligned with a vertical seal retaining groove in an associated side surface of the post profile head profile portion.
