Definitions
- This invention relates to vents.
- vents wherein an opening member moves relative to a fixed frame member between a position closing the vent and an open position. Often the opening member is supported by two hinges on opposite sides of the opening member and one free side of the opening member swings outwardly from the fixed frame whilst the other free side of the opening member remains close to the fixed frame. Such arrangements are satisfactory in most instances and are well known.
- vent requires the opening member to move away from the fixed frame whilst remaining substantially parallel at all times to the fixed frame.
- Parallel hinges are known which, when attached to opposite sides of the opening member, enable both free sides of the opening member to move away from the fixed frame during opening of the vent.
- a drive means such as a motor driven plunger
- misalignment and crabbing of the opening member can occur due to only three sides of the opening member being supported.
- the present invention aims to improve upon the known prior art vents of the parallel hinge type. More particularly, the present applicant has found that a relatively simple alternative arrangement overcomes the problems associated with the prior art without incurring significant expense. More particularly, the present invention provides a vent comprising a fixed frame and an opening member attached to the fixed frame by hinges, the opening member being movable between a position closing the vent and an open position by drive means, wherein three hinges support three sides of the opening member and a fourth side is driven by the drive means. As a result, smoother opening of such a vent occurs without the need for a second drive means.
- the opening member is four sided. In theory, however, an opening member with more sides, and perhaps with more hinges but only one drive means, could also take advantage of the present invention.
- the drive means is motor driven.
- the drive means could be activated by a manual drive device, for example, or by hand. If the drive means is motor driven, it preferably has an electric motor.
- the hinges are preferably parallel hinges such that the opening member, when moving, is constantly substantially parallel to the fixed frame.
- the present invention further provides a hinge comprising a pair of parallel tracks and a pair of diagonally crossing links which are pivotally connected to each track and to each other, wherein each track accommodates a sliding shoe which carries a pivot connected to a respective link.
- a vent comprising a fixed frame and an opening member attached to the fixed frame by parallel hinges, the opening member being movable between a position closing the vent and an open position, wherein three hinges support three sides of the opening member such that the opening member, when moving, is constantly substantially parallel to the fixed frame.
- each hinge preferably comprises two mounts and a pair of diagonally crossing links which are pivotally connected to each mount and to each other. More preferably, the mounts are tracks, possibly C- sectioned, which each accommodate a sliding shoe (or lipped slider) which carries the pivot connected to the respective link. If a slider is used in a track or mount, the friction between the slider and the track or mount is preferably adjustable.
- one or more of the hinges may begin to sag, thereby placing unwanted stresses in the vent system.
- an adjustment means for repositioning at least one of the hinges after initial installation, thereby assisting smooth operation of the hinges.
- a guidance means is preferably included for guiding the opening member during closing of the vent to assist in weathersealing of the vent.
- Such a guidance means may comprise a roller and keep mechanism which assists in valing-in the opening member during closing of the vent.
- a roller may be provided on the opening member and a keep provided on the fixed frame or hinge to guide the roller via a camming action.
- the opening member is preferably a window, but other forms of vent, such as a simple air vent, could also take advantage of the present invention.
- the drive means acts, in use, on the lower or bottom side of the opening member.
- the drive means could alternatively act on the top or upper side of the opening member.
- the drive means preferably acts on the upper or lower side of the opening member, rather than the right or left side of the opening member.
- Figure 2 is a schematic perspective view of a vent according to the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a schematic plan view of a parallel hinge for use in a vent according to the present invention.
- a prior art vent 1 comprises a fixed frame
- the parallel hinges 7 are mounted between the fixed frame 3 and the opening member 5 on the right and left sides of the vent.
- the two motor drives 9 are mounted on an upper and lower edges of the fixed frame 3 and engage upper and lower sides of the opening member 5.
- the parallel hinges 7 obviously assist in this regard.
- FIG. 2 of the drawings A vent 10 according to the present invention is shown in Figure 2 of the drawings.
- the general arrangement of the fixed frame 3, opening member 5 and parallel hinges 7 mounted on opposite sides of the opening member 5 are substantially the same as the corresponding components in the prior art vent 1 shown in Figure 1 , the two motor drives 9 of the prior art are not included. Rather, the upper and lower sides of the opening member 5 are attached to the fixed frame 3 by means of only one motor drive 9 and a third parallel hinge 12.
- This third parallel hinge 12 is the same type of hinge as the parallel hinges 7 used elsewhere in the vent 10.
- a typical parallel hinge for use in a vent 10 according to the present invention comprises two mounting plates 13 joined by two links 15 which are both pivotally attached to each mounting plate 13 and pivotally attached to each other at a central pivot 17.
- One of the mounting plates 13 is for attachment to the fixed frame 3 and the other mounting plate 13 is for attachment to the opening member 5.
- a preferred novel form of parallel hinge 12, which helps to improve the performance of a vent 10 according to the present invention, has mounting plates 13 which are C-shaped in section. These C-shaped tracks 13, which are shown in Figure 3 of the drawings, each carry a sliding shoe 19 (or slider), which carries one end of a link 15. More particularly, one end of each link 15 is pivotally mounted to a sliding shoe 19, thereby allowing the end of the link 15 to move back and forth along the track 13 during use of the hinge 12.
- Each sliding shoe 19 includes a device (not shown) for adjusting the friction between the sliding shoe 19 and its respective track 13. As a result, the opening and closing of the hinge 12 can be controlled more accurately.
