Patent number: 7546711Abstract: An explosion-resisting window with a window frame and a sash frame, which accommodates a panel and is mounted in hinges on the window frame, so as to be tiltable, the sash frame nesting in the window frame in closed position. In order to obviate the need for an outer front glazing of armored glass while guaranteeing adequate safety against explosion shocks and permit the function of continuous ventilation if necessary in open position of the sash frame, the panel is made of armored glass and the window is provided with at least one tilt-limiting element, by means of which explosion-induced tilting of the sash frame in the hinges beyond a tilt-limit position can be resisted. There is at least one shift-limiting element, by means of which explosion-induced shifting of the sash frame perpendicular to a tilt axis in the hinges can be resisted.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2004Date of Patent: June 16, 2009Assignee: Sälzer Sicherheitstechnik GmbHInventor: Heinrich Sälzer
