  • COMPONENT
    Publication number: 20090277093
    Abstract: The invention concerns a constituent element, in particular a window or a door, comprising a casement sash and a pane, in particular a glass surface. The invention is characterized in that, the pane has an inner surface and an outer surface. A plane perpendicular to the surfaces intersects a grooved region designed to receive fittings.

  • Structural support member for window frames or the like
    Patent number: 4907391
    Abstract: A structural support or connecting member for window frames achieves an improved transmission of forces effective on a window frame, a simplified and less expensive manufacture and installation, an improved reliable sealing against infiltration of water and air, and an improved thermal insulation. In the system a window frame component to be connected to the connecting member has at least one lengthwise extending slot on its side facing support member. The support member or connecting member is assembled of two similar or mirror-symmetrical essentially flat sectional elements (9, 9') attached to each other in a mirror-symmetrical fashion to form two hollow chambers (7a, 8a) which extend in parallel to and at a spacing from each other, and which are open laterally through open lengthwise channels (6, 6').

  • Reinforcing and mounting structure for frames
    Patent number: 4894973
    Abstract: A reinforcing and mounting structure for frames, especially window frames, has an inner metal sectional insert fitting into a hollow channel frame member and frame cover elements surrounding the hollow channel frame member on at least three sides. The sectional insert is wedged into the hollow channel frame member and attached at its end faces by screws to frame elements of the frame such as a window frame. The improved mounting structure is less expensive to produce, easier to install, and achieves a considerably increased strength and loadability with the same cross-sectional dimensions relative to prior structures. The sectional insert includes two sectional insert halves (1a, 1b) arranged back-to-back in a mirror image fashion. Each sectional insert half (1a, 1b) essentially has a configuration with a U-shape cross-section with a base shank and two leg shanks.
