Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for joining two structural members by the aid of an adjustable fastener, and where the structural members comprise a door or window frame on one hand and a surrounding stationary building structure on the other hand, and where the building structure is displaced in such a manner relative to said frame that direct joining of both structural members is not possible.
- the invention furthermore, relates to a fastener for use with the method.
- adjustable fastening means in connection with the installation of frames, sashes or the like in adapted openings in building structures of various kinds.
- adjustable fastening means are, inter alia, disclosed in NO-PS Nos. 152,807, and 155,784, and in NO Patent
- the fastening means essentially consists of a hollow holder means, which is internally threaded and is mounted in an adapted through hole in a sash or a frame to be joined with a surrounding building structure, on the side facing said building
- the holder means is firmly locked into a desired position by the aid of an additional locking ring or by being provided with a locking means of its own.
- fastening means furthermore, comprises a force transmitting member, which is externally threaded to be screwed into said holder means, and which has a head to contact the surrounding building structure.
- the force transmitting member also has a through hole which is completely or partly designed with a polygonal cross
- the force transmitting member may be turned in one or the other direction by insertion of a tool into the hole on the inside of the frame and in
- adjustable fastening means which is the designation used in the following.
- One method was to use angular steel one arm of which is fastened to the internal wall, or an older existing facade, respectively, whereas the second projecting arm is used for fastening a window frame or the like.
- Another method was to provide the internal wall, or older existing facade, respectively, with a frame structure which then served to secure, e.g. the window frame.
- Said object according to the present invention is achieved with a method, according to which an adjustable fastening means is used, which is threaded into a frame, and which has a through hole in its longitudinal direction and where the end of said fastening means projecting from the frame may be designed with a stop for a screw head or the like.
- the method is essentially characterized by the fact that a mounting is secured to the building structure and projects from said building structure, and that the adjustable fastening means is rotatable secured to the completely or partly projecting portion of the mounting.
- the fastening means is firmly screwed onto the mounting by the aid of a screw which is inserted into the through hole of the fastening means, which is surrounded by a bead-like projection which is at the same time squeezed into and to engagement with an adapted recess in the end portion of the fastening means.
- Alternative embodiments may involve either firmy screwing the fastening means to the mounting, or only using a bead on the mounting, which is then squeezed into and in engagement with a reces adapted to said bead in the end portion of the fastening means.
- a mounting for use with the method is also provided, and said mounting is essentially characterized by comprising a disk which is provided with cut-outs for insertion of screws or the like to be fastened to- the building structure, and by the fact the said disk in its end projecting completely or partly from said building structure has a fastening member for the adjustable
- Said disk may be plane or shaped, e.g. with a bend in a desired manner.
- one or more of the cut-outs of the mounting may be designed like a slot/slots.
- a preferred embodiment of the fastening means will comprise a threaded hole surrounded by a bead.
- the advantage of such a design of the fastening means of the mounting will appear from the above disclosure.
- fastening means could also be just a threaded hole or just a bead adapted to a cut-out in one end of the adjustable fastening means.
- Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a mounting
- Figure 2 shows a sectional view of the fastening means and the mounting ready for joining a window frame and a building structure which is situated inside.
- Figure 1 shows mounting 1 with a slot-shaped cut-out 2 for insertion of a screw for attaching mounting 1 to a support.
- the slot-shaped cut-out permits a certain adjustability of the mounting when the screw is not too firmly tightened.
- Cut-out 3 serves for insertion of a screw and fastening of mounting 1 upon adjustment of the mounting into a desired position.
- 4 designates a threaded hole in the mounting, and 5 is a bead-like projection which is also threaded.
- Figure 2 shows an adjustable fastening means 6 which is mounted and ready for joining a window frame 15 to a
- Fastening means 6 is mounted in a through and partly or completely threaded hole 16 in window frame
- head 7 of the fastening means was screwed into and, thus, recessed in a self made groove 17 in frame 15.
- Head 7 of the fastening means is, in fact, provided with cutting edges 8.
- fastening means 6, which is provided with threads 9, is screwed slightly out of frame 15, so that bead 7 contacts mounting 1.
- Such turning/screwing of fastening means 6 is either achieved by insertion of a tool through hole 16 in frame 15 into engagement with the polygonal hole 10 of fastening means 6, or by the aid of a tool which is inserted through the space between mounting 1 and frame 15 to engage the polygonally shaped head 7 of fastening means 6.
- By the aid of a screw or the like through slot-shaped hole 2 mounting 1 is secured to building structure 18 in advance.
- mounting 1 it will be possible to adjust the position of mounting 1 slightly in that the mounting with a screw screwed into slot-shaped cut-out 2 may be displaced slightly in a desired direction.
- a screw or the like is inserted into cut-out 3 for final firm attachment of mounting 1 to building structure 18.
- the fastening means is in the shown embodiment provided with a cut-out 11 which is adapted so as to closely surround and engage with the bead-like projection 5 of mounting 1.
- Fastening means 6 is additionally secured to mounting 1 by having a threaded screw 13 inserted into its through hole 10, which screw 13 is screwed into threaded projection 5 as well as hole 4 of mounting 1, preferably in such a manner that head 14 of the screw is in contact with stop 12 in through hole 10 of fastening means 1. It will be understood that when fastening means 6 is
- fastening means 6 may still be turned about its axis for adjusting the space between window frame 15 and building structure 18. Readjustment of the position of mounting 1 will be possible as well, if desired, by temporary removal of the screw in hole 3 and slightly loosening the screw in slot-shaped hole 2. Now mounting 1 may be slightly
