Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verbinder für Rahmen von Fenstern, Türen, Fassaden und dergleichen Konstruktionen, insbesondere zum Anschluß eines als Hohlprofil ausgebildeten Riegels an einem Pfosten, mit einem Verbindungselement sowie einem schraubenförmigen Befestigungselement zum Anschluß des Verbindungselements am Pfosten, wobei das Verbindungselement mit einem Angriffselement zum Ansetzen eines Montagewerkzeugs versehen ist.The invention relates to a connector for frames of windows, doors, facades and the like constructions, in particular for connecting a hollow profile designed as a bolt on a post, with a connecting element and a helical fastening element for connecting the connecting element to the post, wherein the connecting element with an engagement element for Attaching an assembly tool is provided.

Derartige Verbinder werden insbesondere dann eingesetzt, wenn am Riegel höhere Belastungen auftreten oder zumindest zu erwarten sind, so daß die übliche Befestigung des Riegels am Pfosten durch Verschraubungen in einem gegenseitigen Überlappungsbereich diese Kräfte nicht oder nur unter Materialverformung aufnehmen könnten. Derartige Belastungen treten vor allem bei tiefen Profilen auf, insbesondere bei großen, schweren Ausfachungselementen. Dann fängt der Verbinder das auftretende Drehmoment ab. Da diese Verbinder bedarfsweise auch an der Baustelle anzubringen sind, muß die Montage einfach möglich sein.Such connectors are used in particular when higher loads occur on the bolt or at least are expected, so that the usual attachment of the Bolt on the post by screwing in a mutual overlap area these forces could not or only absorb material deformation. Such loads occur especially in deep profiles, especially in large, heavy Ausfachungselementen. Then the connector intercepts the torque occurring. Since these connectors are also necessary to install at the site, the installation must be easy.

Aus der GB-A-2103327 ist ein Verbinder bekannt, bei welchem das Verbindungselement von der einen Seite her an den Pfosten angelegt wird, während die Befestigung von der entgegengesetzten Seite her durch die durch eine Bohrung im Pfosten geführte Schraube erfolgt.From GB-A-2103327 a connector is known in which the connecting element is applied from one side to the post, while the fastening from the opposite side takes place through the screw guided through a hole in the post.

Das Verbindungselement und das Befestigungselement müssen also getrennt voneinander sein, um die Montage überhaupt zu ermöglichen. Dies erschwert die Montage, zumal die Schraube zunächst durch eine weitere Bohrung eingeführt werden muß.The connecting element and the fastening element must therefore be separated from one another in order to allow the assembly at all. This complicates the assembly, especially since the screw must first be inserted through a further hole.

Die DE-A-19752619 beschreibt einen Verbinder, bei welchem das Verbindungselement und das Befestigungselement ebenfalls zwei getrennte Teile sind. Im übrigen sind dort zwei Befestigungselemente vorgesegen, wodurch die Montage noch zeitaufwendiger ist.DE-A-19752619 describes a connector in which the connecting element and the fastening element are also two separate parts. Moreover, there are two fasteners vorgesegen, making installation even more time consuming.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Verbinder der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, der beim Aufbau bzw. der Montage eines Rahmens auf möglichst einfache Weise angebracht werden kann und für verschiedene Bautiefen der Riegelprofile verwendbar ist.The invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a connector of the type mentioned, which can be mounted in the simplest possible way during the construction or assembly of a frame and is suitable for different depths of the bolt profiles.

Diese Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß das Befestigungselement mit dem Verbindungselement unlösbar verbunden ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the fastening element is permanently connected to the connecting element.

Der durch die Erfindung erreichte Vorteil besteht im wesentlichen darin, daß das Verbindungselement zusammen mit dem Befestigungselement eine kompakte Einheit darstellt, ferner ein Angriffselement für ein geeignetes Montagewerkzeug vorhanden ist, so daß grundsätzlich eine "Einhandmontage" möglich ist und - neben dem Montagewerkzeug - keine zusätzlichen Teile erforderlich sind. Die Größe ist dabei zweckmäßigerweise so zu wählen, daß - bei gleicher Riegelbreite - unabhängig von der Riegeltiefe ein einheitliches Verbindungselement eingesetzt werden kann.The advantage achieved by the invention consists essentially in the fact that the connecting element together with the fastener is a compact unit, also an attack element for a suitable assembly tool is present, so that in principle a "one-hand assembly" is possible and - in addition to the assembly tool - no additional Parts are required. The size is expediently to be chosen so that - with the same bolt width - regardless of the depth of the bolt, a uniform connection element can be used.

In bevorzugter Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist das Befestigungselement einstückig mit dem Verbindungselement ausgebildet. Dabei können das Verbindungselement und das Befestigungselement zweckmäßigerweise als gemeinsames Gußteil ausgebildet sein.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the fastening element is formed integrally with the connecting element. In this case, the connecting element and the fastening element can be expediently designed as a common casting.

Es besteht jedoch ebenso auch die Möglichkeit, daß das Befestigungselement als fest im Verbindungselement angeordnete Schraube ausgebildet ist, also beispielsweise eingeklebt, eingepreßt oder in ähnlicher Weise unlösbar am Verbindungselement angeordnet ist.However, there is also the possibility that the fastener is designed as fixedly arranged in the connecting element screw, so for example, glued, pressed or arranged in a similar manner insoluble on the connecting element.

Das Angriffselement kann in bevorzugter Ausgestaltung von einer Aufnahmeöffnung für einen Vierkant- oder Sechskantschlüssel gebildet sein.The engagement element may be formed in a preferred embodiment of a receiving opening for a square or hex wrench.

Das Verbindungselement kann in seiner Umfangsgestalt weitestgehend dem Querschnitt des hohlprofilförmigen Riegels angepaßt sein; bevorzugt weist das Verbindungselement im Umriss die Gestalt eines Vielecks auf, ist also insbesondere quadratisch, rechteckig, sechseckig oder achteckig gestaltet. Dabei besteht insbesondere auch die Möglichkeit, daß das Verbindungselement - jedenfalls beim Riegelprofil der kleinsten Bautiefe - unter Formschluß in den Riegel greift.The connecting element can be largely adapted in its peripheral shape to the cross section of the hollow profile-shaped bolt; Preferably, the connecting element in the outline in the shape of a polygon, so in particular square, rectangular, hexagonal or octagonal designed. In particular, there is also the possibility that the connecting element - at least in the bolt profile of the smallest depth - engages under positive engagement in the bolt.

Um bei dieser Formgestaltung beim Einschrauben des Verbinders in den Pfosten Beschädigungen im Bereich der später sichtbaren Flächen am Pfosten zu vermeiden, die durch die Kanten bzw. Ecken des Verbindungselement entstehen können, weist das Verbindungselement auf seiner dem Befestigungselement zugewandten, also zur Anlage am Pfosten kommenden Seite einen zylindrischen Vorsprung auf.In order to avoid damage to this form when screwing the connector into the post damage in the area of the later visible surfaces on the post, which may be caused by the edges or corners of the connecting element, the connecting element facing on its fastening element, ie to rest on Post coming side a cylindrical projection on.

Schließlich besteht jedoch auch die vorteilhafte Möglichkeit, daß das Verbindungselement im Umriß zylindrische Gestalt aufweist.Finally, however, there is also the advantageous possibility that the connecting element has an outline cylindrical shape.

Im folgenden wird die Erfindung an in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert; es zeigen:

Der in der Zeichnung dargestellte Verbinder 1 ist vorgesehen für Rahmen von Fenstern, Türen, Fassaden und dergleichen Konstruktionen. Insbesondere dient der Verbinder zum Anschluß eines als Hohlprofil ausgebildeten Riegels 2 an einem Pfosten 3.The connector 1 shown in the drawing is intended for frames of windows, doors, facades and the like constructions. In particular, the connector is used to connect a bolt 2 designed as a hollow profile to a post 3.

Im einzelnen besteht der Verbinder 1 aus einem Verbindungselement 4 sowie einem schraubenförmigen Befestigungselement 5, das zum Anschluß des Verbindungselements 4 am Pfosten 3 dient.In detail, the connector 1 consists of a connecting element 4 and a helical fastening element 5, which serves to connect the connecting element 4 on the post 3.

Wie sich aus den Figuren 1 und 2 ergibt, weist der Riegel 2 eine Freischneidung 6 auf, so daß er überlappend am Pfosten 3 mittels üblicher Schraubbefestigungen 7 angeschlossen werden kann.As is apparent from Figures 1 and 2, the bolt 2 has a cutout 6, so that it can be connected overlapping the post 3 by means of conventional screw fasteners 7.

Die zusätzliche Anbringung des Verbinders 1 ermöglicht die Aufnahme höherer auf den Riegel 2 einwirkender Kräfte und dient insbesondere bei tiefen Riegelprofilen zum Auffangen des dann auftretenden Drehmoments, jedenfalls bei solchen Konstruktionen, die eine Basisverbindung zwischen Pfosten und Riegel aufweisen.The additional attachment of the connector 1 allows the inclusion of higher acting on the bolt 2 forces and is used in particular for deep bolt profiles to capture the torque then occurring, at least in those constructions that have a basic connection between posts and bars.

Um die Montage des Verbinders 1 möglichst einfach zu gestalten, ist das Befestigungselement 5 fest mit dem Verbindungselement 4 verbunden. Darüber hinaus ist das Verbindungselement 4 mit einem Angriffselement 8 zum Ansetzen eines Montagewerkzeugs versehen.In order to make the installation of the connector 1 as simple as possible, the fastening element 5 is firmly connected to the connecting element 4. In addition, the connecting element 4 is provided with an engagement element 8 for attaching a mounting tool.

Dabei kann das Befestigungselement 5 in in der Figur 3 dargestellter Weise einstückig mit dem Verbindungselement 4 ausgebildet sein. Insbesondere können das Verbindungselement 4 und das Befestigungselement 5 dabei als gemeinsames Gußteil gestaltet sein.In this case, the fastening element 5 may be integrally formed with the connecting element 4 in the manner shown in FIG. In particular, the connecting element 4 and the fastening element 5 can be designed as a common casting.

Es besteht jedoch auch die in der Figur 4 dargestellte Möglichkeit, daß das Befestigungselement 5 als fest im Verbindungselement 4 angeordnete Schraube ausgebildet ist.However, there is also the possibility shown in FIG. 4 that the fastening element 5 is designed as a screw which is fixedly arranged in the connecting element 4.

Das Angriffselement 8 muß zur Montage des Verbinders 1 einen Drehantrieb ermöglichen und ist daher beispielsweise von einer Aufnahmeöffnung für einen Vierkant- oder Sechskantschlüssel gebildet.The engagement element 8 must allow a rotary drive for mounting the connector 1 and is therefore formed for example by a receiving opening for a square or hex wrench.

Das Verbindungselement 4 kann im Umriss entweder die Gestalt eines Vielecks aufweisen, wobei sich beispielsweise eine quadratische oder rechteckige Gestalt, wie dies aus der Figur 1 zu ersehen ist, anbietet. Um beim Einschrauben des Befestigungselements 5 das Auftreten von durch die Ecken des Verbindungselements 4 verursachte Riefen zu vermeiden, weist das Verbindungselement 4 auf seiner dem Befestigungselement zugewandten Seite einen aus der Figur 3 ersichtlichen kreisförmigen Vorsprung 9 in der Art eines Absatzes auf, der eine Berührung der Ecken mit der Oberfläche des Pfostens 3 verhindert.The connecting element 4 may have in outline either the shape of a polygon, which, for example, a square or rectangular shape, as can be seen from the figure 1, offers. In order to avoid the occurrence of grooves caused by the corners of the connecting element 4 when screwing the fastener 5, the connecting element 4 on its side facing the fastener on a visible from Figure 3 circular projection 9 in the manner of a paragraph, the touch of the Corners with the surface of the post 3 prevented.

Das Verbindungselement 4 kann jedoch auch gemäß Figur 2 im Umriß eine zylindrische Gestalt aufweisen, wodurch eine Ausrichtung seiner Drehlage bezüglich dem Riegel entfällt.However, the connecting element 4 can also according to Figure 2 in outline have a cylindrical shape, whereby an alignment of its rotational position with respect to the bolt deleted.
