Description

L'invention concerne un ensemble de profilés destiné à la réalisation d'un montant et/ou d'une traverse d'un ouvrant apte à être associé à un dormant, un ouvrant réalisé à partir d'un tel ensemble de profilés, ainsi qu'une ouverture, telle qu'une fenêtre notamment, comprenant un tel ouvrant.The invention relates to a set of profiles intended for the production of a upright and / or cross member of an opening adapted to be associated with a frame, a opening made from such a set of profiles, as well as an opening, such as a window in particular, comprising such an opening.

L'invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication et d'assemblage d'un ouvrant à partir d'un tel ensemble de profilés.The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing and assembling a opening from such a set of profiles.

L'invention se rapporte plus spécifiquement à un ensemble de profilés comportant :

  • un premier profilé en aluminium comprenant, en section transversale, une première branche comportant des premiers moyens d'encliquetage vers sa partie extrême libre et une deuxième branche, sensiblement perpendiculaire à la première branche, apte à coopérer avec le dormant ;
  • un deuxième profilé en matière plastique, comprenant des deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage complémentaires des premiers moyens d'encliquetage du premier profilé.
The invention relates more specifically to a set of profiles comprising:
  • a first aluminum profile comprising, in cross section, a first branch comprising first latching means towards its free end part and a second branch, substantially perpendicular to the first branch, capable of cooperating with the frame;
  • a second plastic profile, comprising second latching means complementary to the first latching means of the first profile.

Un tel ensemble de profilés est notamment connu des documents FR 2 802 968 et FR 2 802 969.Such a set of profiles is known in particular from documents FR 2 802 968 and FR 2 802 969.

Ces documents décrivent une fenêtre, ou une porte-fenêtre, comprenant un ouvrant dont les montants et/ou les traverses sont réalisés à partir d'au moins d'un premier profilé en aluminium et d'un deuxième profilé en matière plastique, tels que précédemment décrits. Un troisième profilé, en matière plastique, formant parclose, peut également être prévu.These documents describe a window, or a French window, comprising a opening whose uprights and / or crosspieces are made from at least a first aluminum profile and a second plastic profile, as previously described. A third profile, made of plastic, forming a glazing bead, can also be provided.

Le premier profilé présente sensiblement la forme d'un T en section transversale, et comprend donc, en plus de la première et de la deuxième branches précitées, une troisième branche s'étendant perpendiculairement à la première branche, dans le prolongement de la deuxième branche.The first profile has substantially the shape of a T in section transverse, and therefore includes, in addition to the first and second aforementioned branches, a third branch extending perpendicular to the first branch, in the extension of the second branch.

Le deuxième profilé, ou, dans un autre mode de réalisation, l'ensemble constitué du deuxième et du troisième profilés, présente sensiblement la forme d'un L en section transversale, comprenant un premier et un deuxième segments. Le premier segment du L porte les deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage vers sa partie extrême libre.The second profile, or, in another embodiment, the assembly consisting of the second and third profiles, has substantially the shape an L in cross section, comprising a first and a second segments. The first segment of the L carries the second means latching towards its free end.

Les deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage sont agencés de sorte que le premier segment du L puisse être associé au premier profilé sensiblement dans le prolongement de la première branche.The second latching means are arranged so that the first segment of the L can be associated with the first profile substantially in the extension of the first branch.

Lorsque les premier et deuxième profilés sont assemblés, un espace en forme de gorge est ménagé entre la troisième branche du premier profilé et le deuxième segment du deuxième profilé. La gorge ainsi formée est apte à recevoir un panneau, tel qu'un vitrage.When the first and second profiles are assembled, a shaped space groove is formed between the third branch of the first profile and the second segment of the second profile. The throat thus formed is suitable for receive a panel, such as glazing.

Ainsi, le vitrage de l'ouvrant est inséré entre le profilé en aluminium, très mauvais isolant, et le profilé en matière plastique. Par conséquent, l'isolation de la fenêtre, entre l'intérieur et l'extérieur, n'est pas optimale, tant du point de vue thermique que du point de vue acoustique. Cette isolation imparfaite engendre un surcoût pour l'utilisateur de telles fenêtres, notamment en termes de chauffage ou de climatisation, et n'apporte pas tout le confort souhaité.Thus, the glazing of the opening is inserted between the aluminum profile, very poor insulation, and the plastic profile. Therefore, the isolation of the window, between the interior and the exterior, is not optimal, both from the point of view thermal than acoustically. This imperfect isolation creates an additional cost for the user of such windows, in particular in terms of heating or air conditioning, and does not provide all the desired comfort.

En outre, les premier et deuxième profilés, du fait de l'emploi de l'aluminium et d'une matière plastique traditionnelle telle que le PVC, ne possèdent pas les mêmes coefficients de dilatation. En conséquence, des contraintes peuvent naítre dans l'ouvrant, ce qui peut s'avérer préjudiciable pour la qualité et la durée de vie de la fenêtre.In addition, the first and second profiles, due to the use of aluminum and of a traditional plastic material such as PVC, do not have the same expansion coefficients. As a result, constraints may be in the opening, which can be detrimental for the quality and window life.

Par ailleurs, le montage de la fenêtre décrite dans les documents FR 2 802 968 et FR 2 802 969 présente un certain nombre d'inconvénients.Furthermore, the mounting of the window described in documents FR 2 802 968 and FR 2 802 969 has a number of drawbacks.

D'une part, l'assemblage des premier et deuxième profilés est réalisé par sertissage. Cette technique est assez longue et délicate à mettre en oeuvre, et nécessite une installation de fabrication relativement lourde. On the one hand, the assembly of the first and second profiles is carried out by crimping. This technique is quite long and delicate to implement, and requires a relatively heavy manufacturing facility.

D'autre part, l'assemblage d'un montant et d'une traverse adjacents pour réaliser la fenêtre se fait par l'intermédiaire d'équerres traditionnelles de la menuiserie aluminium. Ces équerres sont insérées dans les profilés et simplement fixées par des vis.On the other hand, the assembly of an adjacent upright and crosspiece to the window is made using traditional brackets of the aluminum joinery. These brackets are inserted in the profiles and simply fixed with screws.

Ce mode de fixation ne permet pas d'assurer un maintien et un serrage optimaux des montants et traverses entre eux, la qualité de la fenêtre pouvant s'en trouver altérée.This method of attachment does not provide support and tightening optimal amounts and crossbeams between them, the quality of the window can be altered.

L'invention a pour but de résoudre ces problèmes.The invention aims to solve these problems.

A cet effet, et selon un premier aspect, l'invention concerne un ensemble de profilés tel que précédemment décrit, dans lequel le deuxième profilé présente en coupe transversale la forme générale d'un U et comprend une paroi formant un fond, ainsi qu'une première et une deuxième ailes délimitant une gorge. La première aile dudit deuxième profilé porte, sur sa face extérieure à la gorge, les deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage et est destinée à être associée au premier profilé sensiblement dans le prolongement de la première branche de sorte que le fond de la gorge s'étende sensiblement parallèlement à la première branche du premier profilé et que l'ouverture de la gorge soit dirigée à l'opposé de la deuxième branche du premier profilé. La gorge est destinée à recevoir un panneau, tel qu'un vitrage, sensiblement perpendiculairement à la première branche.To this end, and according to a first aspect, the invention relates to a set of profiles as previously described, in which the second profile has in cross section the general shape of a U and includes a wall forming a bottom, as well as first and second wings defining a gorge. The first wing of said second section carries, on its face external to the groove, the second latching means and is intended to be associated with the first profiled substantially in the extension of the first branch so that the bottom of the groove extends substantially parallel to the first branch of the first profile and that the opening of the groove is directed opposite the second branch of the first profile. The throat is intended to receive a panel, such as glazing, substantially perpendicular to the first plugged.

Ainsi, le vitrage est inséré dans une gorge en matière plastique, et n'est pas en contact avec le profilé en aluminium. L'isolation de l'ouvrant obtenu à partir de cet ensemble de profilés est bien supérieure à celle que présentent les ouvrants de l'art antérieur.Thus, the glazing is inserted into a plastic groove, and is not in contact with the aluminum profile. The insulation of the opening obtained from this set of profiles is much greater than that presented by the openings of the prior art.

De plus, l'assemblage des premier et deuxième profilés est réalisé de façon très rapide et très simple par simple encliquetage.In addition, the assembly of the first and second profiles is carried out very fast and very simple with a simple click.

Selon une réalisation possible, le premier profilé comprend une paroi saillante s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement à la première branche depuis la partie extrême libre de ladite première branche, et le deuxième profilé comprend une paroi de maintien s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement au fond de la gorge et à distance dudit fond, à l'opposé de la gorge. Ainsi, un espace est ménagé entre le fond de la gorge et la paroi de maintien, ledit espace étant apte à coopérer avec la paroi saillante du premier profilé.According to a possible embodiment, the first profile comprises a projecting wall extending substantially parallel to the first branch from the part free end of said first branch, and the second section comprises a retaining wall extending substantially parallel to the bottom of the groove and spaced from said bottom, opposite the groove. Thus, a space is provided between the bottom of the groove and the retaining wall, said space being able to cooperate with the projecting wall of the first profile.

L'invention permet ainsi d'assurer un très bon maintien du deuxième profilé sur le premier profilé.The invention thus makes it possible to ensure very good maintenance of the second profile on the first profile.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques, le deuxième profilé est réalisé en PVC (polychlorure de vinyle) comprenant des fibres de verre. Le coefficient de dilatation de ce matériau est plus faible que celui du PVC traditionnel, et est plus proche de celui de l'aluminium, ce qui améliore la tenue de la fenêtre aux variations de température. De plus, ce matériau est plus rigide que le PVC traditionnel.According to other characteristics, the second profile is made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) comprising glass fibers. The coefficient of expansion of this material is lower than that of traditional PVC, and is more close to that of aluminum, which improves the resistance of the window to temperature variations. In addition, this material is more rigid than PVC traditional.

Selon un deuxième aspect, l'invention concerne un profilé en aluminium - respectivement en matière plastique -agencé pour coopérer avec un profilé en matière plastique - respectivement en aluminium - en vue de former un ensemble de profilés tel que précité.According to a second aspect, the invention relates to an aluminum profile - respectively in plastic material-arranged to cooperate with a profile in plastic - respectively aluminum - to form a set of profiles as mentioned above.

Selon un troisième aspect, l'invention se rapporte à un ouvrant comprenant deux montants et deux traverses associés transversalement deux à deux vers leurs extrémités, ainsi qu'un panneau, tel qu'un vitrage, porté par et dans le cadre formé par les montants et les traverses, le dit ouvrant étant apte à être associé à un dormant, au moins un montant ou une traverse dudit ouvrant étant réalisé à partir de l'ensemble de profilés précité.According to a third aspect, the invention relates to an opening comprising two uprights and two cross members associated transversely two to two lines their ends, as well as a panel, such as glazing, carried by and in the frame formed by the uprights and the crosspieces, the said opening being able to be associated with a frame, at least an upright or a crosspiece of said opening being made from the aforementioned set of profiles.

Selon un quatrième aspect, l'invention se rapporte à un procédé de fabrication et d'assemblage d'un ouvrant à partir d'un ensemble de profilés tel que précédemment décrit. Les premier et deuxième profilés, réalisés séparément par filage ou extrusion, sont assemblés par encliquetage. Les montants et les traverses de l'ouvrant sont découpés dans l'ensemble de profilés ainsi assemblés, selon un plan formant un angle voisin de 45° avec l'axe dudit ensemble de profilés. Des organes rigides en forme d'équerre sont mis en place dans les montants ou traverses appropriés, tandis que le panneau est engagé dans la gorge du deuxième profilé des traverses ou montants appropriés. Ensuite, les équerres sont insérées dans les traverses ou montants portant le panneau, dans la deuxième branche du premier profilé, de sorte à former un cadre.According to a fourth aspect, the invention relates to a manufacturing process and assembling a sash from a set of profiles such as previously described. The first and second profiles, produced separately by spinning or extrusion, are assembled by snap-fastening. The amounts and sash cross members are cut from the profile assembly as well assembled, according to a plane forming an angle close to 45 ° with the axis of said set of profiles. Rigid square-shaped members are put in place in the appropriate uprights or crosspieces, while the panel is engaged in the groove of the second profile of the appropriate crosspieces or uprights. Then the brackets are inserted in the crosspieces or uprights carrying the panel, in the second branch of the first profile, so as to form a frame.

Le procédé de fabrication et d'assemblage peut comprendre une étape supplémentaire dans laquelle un montant et une traverse adjacents sont rapprochés l'un de l'autre au moyen de goupilles excentriques coopérant avec des trous pratiquées d'une part dans l'équerre et d'autre part dans le premier profilé constitutif dudit montant et de ladite traverse. On obtient ainsi un montage serré, particulièrement satisfaisant.The manufacturing and assembly process may include a step additional in which an adjacent upright and cross member are brought closer to each other by means of eccentric pins cooperating with holes made on the one hand in the square and on the other hand in the first section constituting said upright and said crosspiece. We thus obtain a tight fitting, particularly satisfactory.

Enfin, selon un cinquième aspect, l'invention concerne une ouverture, telle que notamment fenêtre, porte-fenêtre, porte, ou analogue, comprenant au moins un ouvrant tel que précité, et un dormant apte à être associé audit ouvrant.Finally, according to a fifth aspect, the invention relates to an opening, such that in particular window, French window, door, or the like, comprising at least one opening as above, and a frame adapted to be associated with said opening.

On se réfère tout d'abord aux figures 1 à 3.We first refer to Figures 1 to 3.

Un ouvrant 1 comprend deux montants et deux traverses - inférieure et supérieure - associés transversalement deux à deux vers leurs extrémités, ainsi qu'un panneau, tel qu'un vitrage 2, porté par et dans le cadre formé par les montants et les traverses.An opening 1 comprises two uprights and two crosspieces - lower and upper - associated transversely two by two towards their ends, as well that a panel, such as a glazing 2, carried by and in the frame formed by the uprights and sleepers.

L'ouvrant 1 est associé à un dormant 3 fixé à une maçonnerie, de sorte à former une ouverture telle que notamment fenêtre, porte-fenêtre, porte ou analogue. Cette association est assurée via un organe de rotation 4, tel que des gonds. Selon la réalisation représentée sur les figures, l'ouvrant 1 est caché par le dormant 3.The opening 1 is associated with a frame 3 fixed to a masonry, so as to form an opening such as in particular window, French window, door or the like. This association is ensured via a rotation member 4, such as hinges. According to the embodiment shown in the figures, the opening 1 is hidden by the sleeping 3.

Les figures 1 et 2 représentent en coupe transversale la traverse inférieure de l'ouvrant 1 associée au dormant 3, l'ouvrant 1 étant en position fermée, la figure 3 représentant en coupe transversale un montant de l'ouvrant 1. L'ouvrant 1 est apte à être ouvert vers l'intérieur I d'une construction recevant l'ouverture. Toutefois, l'invention pourrait s'appliquer à un ouvrant 1 apte à être ouvert vers l'extérieur E de la construction.Figures 1 and 2 show in cross section the lower cross member of the opening 1 associated with the frame 3, the opening 1 being in the closed position, the Figure 3 showing in cross section an amount of the opening 1. The opening 1 is capable of being open towards the interior I of a construction receiving the opening. However, the invention could be applied to an opening 1 capable of being open to the outside E of the building.

Dans la suite de la description, et pour plus de commodité, on considère que l'ouvrant 1 est fermé.In the following description, and for convenience, it is considered that the opening 1 is closed.

Le vitrage 2 est un double vitrage isolant comprenant une vitre intérieure 5, une vitre extérieure 6, un espace 7 séparant les deux vitres 5, 6, et une entretoise périphérique 8. Le vitrage 2 définit un plan P médian. The glazing 2 is an insulating double glazing comprising an interior glass 5, a exterior window 6, a space 7 separating the two windows 5, 6, and a spacer peripheral 8. The glazing 2 defines a median plane P.

Au moins un montant ou une traverse de l'ouvrant 1 est réalisé à partir d'un ensemble de profilés selon l'invention. Dans la suite de la description, on se placera dans le cas où les deux montants et les deux traverses de l'ouvrant sont réalisés à partir du même ensemble de profilés, bien que cette réalisation ne soit pas la seule possible.At least one amount or a cross member of the opening 1 is made from a set of profiles according to the invention. In the following description, we will place in the case where the two uprights and the two crosspieces of the opening are made from the same set of profiles, although this realization does is not the only possible one.

L'ensemble de profilés comprend un premier profilé 9, en aluminium, et un deuxième profilé 10, en matière plastique, notamment en PVC comprenant des fibres de verre. Les profilés 9, 10 sont creux et obtenus par exemple par filage ou extrusion.The profile set includes a first profile 9, made of aluminum, and a second profile 10, made of plastic, in particular PVC comprising glass fibers. Profiles 9, 10 are hollow and obtained for example by spinning or extrusion.

On décrit dans un premier temps le premier profilé 9.The first section 9 is first described.

Le premier profilé 9 présente, en coupe transversale, la forme générale d'un L présentant une première branche 11 et une deuxième branche 12, sensiblement perpendiculaires. Les angles au niveau du raccordement entre les deux branches 11, 12 sont arrondis. Le premier profilé 9 est destiné à conférer une bonne rigidité à l'ensemble de profilés.The first profile 9 has, in cross section, the general shape of an L having a first branch 11 and a second branch 12, substantially perpendicular. The angles at the connection between the two branches 11, 12 are rounded. The first profile 9 is intended to give a good rigidity to the profile assembly.

On définit une direction D1 sensiblement parallèle à la première branche 11 et une direction D2 sensiblement parallèle à la deuxième branche 12 du premier profilé 9 constitutif d'une traverse, lorsque l'ouvrant 1 est en position fermée (figures 1 et 2). Les directions D1, D2 sont fixes par rapport à la maçonnerie, les branches 11, 12 du premier profilé 9 n'étant plus parallèles à D1, respectivement à D2, lorsque l'ouvrant 1 est en position ouverte. On définit enfin une troisième direction D3, perpendiculaire à D1 et D2. D3 est la direction dans laquelle s'étendent les profilés 9, 10. Les références aux directions D1, D2, D3 sont à considérer par rapport aux figures 1 et 2.A direction D1 is defined which is substantially parallel to the first branch 11 and a direction D2 substantially parallel to the second branch 12 of the first profile 9 constituting a cross member, when the opening 1 is in the closed position (Figures 1 and 2). The directions D1, D2 are fixed relative to the masonry, the branches 11, 12 of the first profile 9 no longer parallel to D1, respectively at D2, when the door 1 is in the open position. We finally define a third direction D3, perpendicular to D1 and D2. D3 is the direction in which extend the sections 9, 10. References to directions D1, D2, D3 are to be considered in relation to Figures 1 and 2.

La première branche 11 présente tout d'abord une première paroi latérale 13, et une seconde paroi latérale 14, située entre la première paroi latérale 13 et la deuxième branche 12 du premier profilé, lesdites parois latérales 13, 14 étant sensiblement parallèles à la direction D1. The first branch 11 firstly has a first side wall 13, and a second side wall 14, located between the first side wall 13 and the second branch 12 of the first profile, said side walls 13, 14 being substantially parallel to direction D1.

En outre, une troisième paroi 15 s'étend depuis l'extrémité libre de la seconde paroi latérale 14 dans la direction D2, vers la deuxième branche 12 du premier profilé 9.In addition, a third wall 15 extends from the free end of the second side wall 14 in direction D2, towards the second branch 12 of the first profile 9.

De plus, une paroi saillante 16, formant paroi de support, s'étend depuis la troisième paroi 15 dans la direction D1, en s'éloignant de la deuxième branche 12. La paroi de support 16 est située sensiblement au milieu de la troisième paroi 15.In addition, a projecting wall 16, forming a support wall, extends from the third wall 15 in direction D1, moving away from the second branch 12. The support wall 16 is located substantially in the middle of the third wall 15.

La première branche 11 comprend également une paroi intérieure 17 s'étendant entre les première et seconde parois latérales 13, 14.The first branch 11 also includes an interior wall 17 extending between the first and second side walls 13, 14.

Selon un premier et un deuxième modes de réalisation, représenté sur les figures 1 et 2, la paroi intérieure 17 est sensiblement parallèle à la direction D1, et située à distance des extrémités libres des parois latérales 13, 14.According to a first and a second embodiment, shown in the FIGS. 1 and 2, the interior wall 17 is substantially parallel to the direction D1, and located at a distance from the free ends of the side walls 13, 14.

Selon un troisième mode de réalisation, représenté sur la figure 3, la paroi intérieure 17 comprend, en partant de la première paroi latérale 13 et en allant vers la seconde paroi latérale 14, une première portion 17a sensiblement parallèle à la deuxième branche 12, située à distance des extrémités libres des parois latérales 13, 14, et une deuxième portion 17b oblique, reliant l'extrémité libre de la première portion à l'extrémité libre de la seconde paroi latérale 14.According to a third embodiment, shown in FIG. 3, the wall interior 17 comprises, starting from the first side wall 13 and going towards the second side wall 14, a first portion 17a substantially parallel to the second branch 12, located at a distance from the free ends of the side walls 13, 14, and a second oblique portion 17b, connecting the end free from the first portion to the free end of the second side wall 14.

Ainsi, la première branche 11 du premier profilé 9 présente, vers sa partie extrême libre, une cavité 18 délimitée par la paroi intérieure 17 et par les première et seconde parois latérales 13, 14. Dans les premier et deuxième modes de réalisation, la cavité 18 présente une section transversale sensiblement rectangulaire.Thus, the first branch 11 of the first profile 9 has, towards its part extreme free, a cavity 18 delimited by the inner wall 17 and by the first and second side walls 13, 14. In the first and second embodiments, the cavity 18 has a cross section substantially rectangular.

La première paroi latérale 13 - ainsi que la seconde paroi latérale 14 dans le premier mode de réalisation - comporte des premiers moyens d'encliquetage 19, dirigés vers l'intérieur de la cavité 18. The first side wall 13 - as well as the second side wall 14 in the first embodiment - includes first latching means 19, directed towards the interior of the cavity 18.

Selon les premier et deuxième modes de réalisation, la paroi de support 16 comprend également des moyens d'encliquetage 20, destinés à absorber les tolérances de réalisation des premier et deuxième profilés 9, 10, en vue d'un meilleur maintien.According to the first and second embodiments, the support wall 16 also comprises latching means 20, intended to absorb the production tolerances of the first and second profiles 9, 10, for a better support.

Enfin, la première branche 11 comprend, sur sa face interne, un logement 21, de section transversale sensiblement circulaire, s'étendant longitudinalement, ledit logement 21 étant situé à l'intérieur de la première branche 11, à proximité de la paroi intérieure 17, et étant destiné à recevoir un organe de fixation.Finally, the first branch 11 comprises, on its internal face, a housing 21, of substantially circular cross section extending longitudinally, said housing 21 being located inside the first branch 11, near of the inner wall 17, and being intended to receive a fixing member.

La deuxième branche 12 du premier profilé 9 est apte à coopérer avec le dormant 3. A cet effet, la deuxième branche 12 comporte une paroi d'extrémité 22, sensiblement parallèle à la direction D1, apte à être traversée par l'organe de rotation 4 (figure 3). De plus, la deuxième branche 12 comporte, vers sa partie extrême libre, et sur sa face extérieure destinée à être placée en regard du dormant 3, une gorge 23 apte à recevoir un joint d'étanchéité 24.The second branch 12 of the first profile 9 is able to cooperate with the standing 3. For this purpose, the second branch 12 has a wall end 22, substantially parallel to direction D1, capable of being crossed by the rotation member 4 (Figure 3). In addition, the second branch 12 comprises, towards its free end part, and on its external face intended to be placed in gaze of the frame 3, a groove 23 capable of receiving a seal 24.

En outre, la deuxième branche 12 comprend une cloison intérieure 25, sensiblement parallèle à la direction D1. Une cavité 26 est ainsi définie entre la cloison 25 et la paroi d'extrémité 22.In addition, the second branch 12 comprises an interior partition 25, substantially parallel to direction D1. A cavity 26 is thus defined between the partition 25 and the end wall 22.

On décrit à présent le deuxième profilé 10.The second section 10 is now described.

Le deuxième profilé 10 est rigide. Il présente, en coupe transversale, la forme générale d'un U et comprend une paroi formant un fond 27, ainsi qu'une première et une deuxième ailes 28, 29 délimitant une gorge 30.The second profile 10 is rigid. It has, in cross section, the shape general of a U and comprises a wall forming a bottom 27, as well as a first and second wings 28, 29 defining a groove 30.

La première aile 28 du deuxième profilé 10 comprend, sur sa face extérieure à la gorge 30, des deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage 31 complémentaires des premiers moyens d'encliquetage 19 du premier profilé 9.The first wing 28 of the second profile 10 comprises, on its outside face the groove 30, second latching means 31 complementary to the first latching means 19 of the first profile 9.

Les deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage 31 comprennent au moins une paroi d'accrochage 32 s'étendant depuis la première aile 28 du deuxième profilé 10 vers l'extérieur de la gorge 30. The second latching means 31 comprise at least one wall attachment 32 extending from the first wing 28 of the second profile 10 out of throat 30.

Selon un premier mode de réalisation (figure 1), les deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage 31 comprennent deux parois d'accrochage 32, sensiblement parallèles au fond 27. Selon un deuxième mode de réalisation (figure 2), les deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage 31 comprennent une paroi d'accrochage 32 formant sensiblement un U avec la première aile 28. Enfin, selon un troisième mode de réalisation (figure 3), les deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage 31 comprennent une paroi d'accrochage 32 oblique par rapport à la première aile 28.According to a first embodiment (Figure 1), the second means latching 31 comprise two hooking walls 32, substantially parallel to the bottom 27. According to a second embodiment (FIG. 2), the second latching means 31 comprise a hooking wall 32 substantially forming a U with the first wing 28. Finally, according to a third embodiment (Figure 3), the second latching means 31 include a hooking wall 32 oblique to the first wing 28.

La ou les parois d'accrochage 32 comportent un bec d'encliquetage 33 (figures 1 et 3), ou une rainure (figure 2), destiné(e) à coopérer avec les premiers moyens d'encliquetage 19 du premier profilé 9.The attachment wall (s) 32 have a snap-fit spout 33 (Figures 1 and 3), or a groove (Figure 2), intended (e) to cooperate with the first latching means 19 of the first profile 9.

Le deuxième profilé 10 comprend également une paroi de maintien 34 s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement au fond 27 de la gorge 30 et à distance de celui-ci, à l'opposé de la gorge 30. La paroi de maintien 34 est liée au fond 27 au niveau d'une zone de liaison 35 située sensiblement au milieu dudit fond 27, transversalement. La paroi de maintien 34 s'étend sensiblement jusqu'au droit de la première aile 28.The second profile 10 also includes a retaining wall 34 extending substantially parallel to the bottom 27 of the groove 30 and at a distance of the latter, opposite the groove 30. The retaining wall 34 is linked to the bottom 27 at a connecting zone 35 located substantially in the middle of said bottom 27, transversely. The retaining wall 34 extends substantially to the right of the first wing 28.

Un espace est ainsi ménagé entre le fond 27 de la gorge 30 et la paroi de maintien 34, ledit espace étant apte à coopérer avec la paroi de support 16 du premier profilé 9. A cet effet, la paroi de maintien 34 peut comprendre des moyens d'encliquetage complémentaires des moyens d'encliquetage 20 de la paroi de support 16.A space is thus created between the bottom 27 of the groove 30 and the wall of holding 34, said space being able to cooperate with the support wall 16 of the first profile 9. For this purpose, the retaining wall 34 may include complementary latching means latching means 20 of the support wall 16.

Le deuxième profilé 10 comprend en outre un orifice 36 situé dans la paroi formant fond 27, au niveau de la zone de liaison 35. L'orifice 36 s'étend longitudinalement et est destiné à recevoir un organe de fixation.The second profile 10 further comprises an orifice 36 located in the wall forming bottom 27, at the level of the connection zone 35. The orifice 36 extends longitudinally and is intended to receive a fixing member.

Enfin, le deuxième profilé 10 comprend une paroi de séparation 37 s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement au fond 27 de la gorge 30 dans le sens opposé aux ailes 28, 29. Finally, the second profile 10 comprises a partition wall 37 extending substantially perpendicular to the bottom 27 of the groove 30 in the direction opposite the wings 28, 29.

Une lèvre souple 38 saillant depuis l'extrémité libre de la paroi de séparation 37, réalisée par coextrusion avec le deuxième profilé 10, est également prévue.A flexible lip 38 projecting from the free end of the partition wall 37, produced by coextrusion with the second profile 10, is also provided.

Le deuxième profilé 10 est destiné à être associé au premier profilé 9 sensiblement dans le prolongement de la première branche 11, de sorte que le fond 27 de la gorge 30 s'étende sensiblement parallèlement à la seconde paroi latérale 14 de la première branche 11, et que l'ouverture de la gorge 30 soit dirigée à l'opposé de la deuxième branche 12 du premier profilé 9.The second profile 10 is intended to be associated with the first profile 9 substantially in the extension of the first branch 11, so that the bottom 27 of groove 30 extends substantially parallel to the second wall lateral 14 of the first branch 11, and the opening of the groove 30 is directed opposite the second branch 12 of the first section 9.

L'assemblage des premier et deuxième profilés 9, 10 est effectué par coopération des premiers et deuxièmes moyens d'encliquetage 19, 31.The first and second sections 9, 10 are assembled by cooperation of the first and second latching means 19, 31.

La gorge 30 est destinée à recevoir le vitrage 2, de sorte que le plan P soit sensiblement parallèle à la direction D2. Lorsque les premier et deuxième profilés 9, 10 sont associés l'un à l'autre, la paroi de support 16 du premier profilé 9 est engagée dans l'espace ménagé entre le fond 27 de la gorge 30 et la paroi de maintien 34. Ceci permet d'assurer un meilleur support du vitrage 2.The groove 30 is intended to receive the glazing 2, so that the plane P is substantially parallel to direction D2. When the first and second profiles 9, 10 are associated with each other, the support wall 16 of the first profile 9 is engaged in the space formed between the bottom 27 of the groove 30 and the retaining wall 34. This ensures better support for the glazing 2.

Sur chacune des ailes 28, 29 du deuxième profilé 10, un joint d'étanchéité 39, 40 saille vers l'intérieur de la gorge 30.On each of the wings 28, 29 of the second profile 10, a seal 39, 40 protrudes towards the inside of the throat 30.

Sur la figure 1, le joint 39 est coextrudé et forme une butée, tandis que le joint 40 est un joint à bourrer ou à clamer, mis en place après l'insertion du vitrage 2 dans la gorge 30, par enfoncement. Le vitrage est représenté en traits pointillés, dans la position qu'il est destiné à occuper, le joint 40 étant alors comprimé.In FIG. 1, the seal 39 is coextruded and forms a stop, while the seal 40 is a seal to be stuffed or clammed in place after the glazing 2 has been inserted in the throat 30, by depression. The glazing is represented in dotted lines, in the position it is intended to occupy, the seal 40 then being compressed.

Sur les figures 2 et 5, les joints 39, 40 sont clipés, collés ou coextrudés sur les ailes 28, 29, et comprennent une lèvre 41 souple recouverte d'une pellicule 42 de glissant, ainsi qu'une portion 43 de mousse de polyuréthane compressible destinée, lorsque le vitrage 2 est inséré dans la gorge 30, à être appliquée contre la face des ailes 28, 29 dirigée vers l'intérieur de la gorge 30. Les joints 39, 40 peuvent comprendre des crans 44 rigides permettant un meilleur maintien sur les ailes 28, 29. In FIGS. 2 and 5, the seals 39, 40 are clipped, glued or coextruded on the wings 28, 29, and include a flexible lip 41 covered with a film 42 slippery, as well as a portion 43 of compressible polyurethane foam intended, when the glazing 2 is inserted in the groove 30, to be applied against the face of the wings 28, 29 directed towards the inside of the groove 30. The seals 39, 40 may include rigid notches 44 allowing better holding on the wings 28, 29.

Sur la figure 3, les joints 39, 40 peuvent être réalisés en PVC et coextrudés avec le deuxième profilé 10. Ils sont destinés à être fléchis lors de l'insertion du vitrage 2. L'un des deux joints 39, 40 assure plus spécifiquement le rôle de calage du vitrage 2. Un élément complémentaire 39', formant également joint, peut être prévu, et mis en place par clipage.In FIG. 3, the seals 39, 40 can be made of PVC and coextruded with the second profile 10. They are intended to be bent during the insertion of the glazing 2. One of the two seals 39, 40 more specifically ensures the role of setting the glazing 2. An additional element 39 ′, also forming a seal, can be planned, and put in place by clipping.

Sur les figures 2 et 3, le joint 40 situé sur l'aile 29 non liée au premier profilé 9 comprend également une partie supplémentaire 45, située à l'extérieur de la gorge 30, et destinée à venir en appui sur le dormant 3.In FIGS. 2 and 3, the seal 40 located on the wing 29 not linked to the first profile 9 also includes an additional part 45, located outside the groove 30, and intended to come to bear on the frame 3.

On décrit maintenant le procédé de fabrication et d'assemblage d'un ouvrant 1 à partir d'un tel ensemble de profilés, en référence aux figures 4 et 5.The process of manufacturing and assembling an opening 1 to starting from such a set of profiles, with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

Les premier et deuxième profilés 9, 10 sont réalisés séparément par filage ou extrusion, puis assemblés par encliquetage, comme précédemment décrit. Les montants et les traverses de l'ouvrant 1 sont ensuite découpés dans l'ensemble formé par les profilés 9, 10 ainsi assemblés, selon un plan formant un angle voisin de 45° avec l'axe desdits profilés 9, 10.The first and second sections 9, 10 are produced separately by spinning or extrusion, then snap-on, as previously described. The uprights and crossbars of the opening 1 are then cut in the assembly formed by the profiles 9, 10 thus assembled, along a plane forming an angle close to 45 ° with the axis of said sections 9, 10.

Dans chacune des parties extrêmes de chacune des deux traverses - respectivement de chacun des deux montants - on engage une branche d'un organe rigide en forme d'équerre 46 dans la deuxième branche 12 du premier profilé 9, dans la cavité 26.In each of the extreme parts of each of the two sleepers - respectively of each of the two amounts - a branch of a rigid square-shaped member 46 in the second branch 12 of the first profile 9, in the cavity 26.

On engage ensuite le vitrage 2 dans la gorge 30 du deuxième profilé 10 de chacun des deux montants - respectivement des deux traverses. Enfin, on engage les branches libres des équerres 46 liées aux traverses - respectivement aux montants - dans les parties extrêmes des montants - respectivement des traverses - portant le vitrage 2, dans la deuxième branche 11 du premier profilé 9, de sorte à former un cadre.The glazing 2 is then engaged in the groove 30 of the second profile 10 of each of the two uprights - respectively of the two crosspieces. Finally, we engages the free arms of the brackets 46 linked to the crosspieces - respectively to the uprights - in the extreme parts of the uprights - sleepers respectively - carrying glazing 2, in the second branch 11 of the first profile 9, so as to form a frame.

Un montant et une traverse adjacents sont rapprochés l'un de l'autre au moyen de goupilles excentriques 47 comprenant des crans et coopérant, d'une part, avec des trous 48 pratiqués dans l'équerre 46 et, d'autre part, avec des trous 49 pratiqués dans la deuxième branche 12 du premier profilé 9 constitutif dudit montant et de ladite traverse. Ainsi, par action sur les goupilles excentriques 47, on rapproche progressivement la montant et la traverse adjacents, et on obtient un montage parfaitement serré, comme illustré sur la figure 5.An adjacent upright and crosspiece are brought together by means of of eccentric pins 47 comprising notches and cooperating, on the one hand, with holes 48 made in the square 46 and, on the other hand, with holes 49 practiced in the second branch 12 of the first section 9 constituting said amount and said cross. So, by acting on the eccentric pins 47, we gradually bring the adjacent upright and crossbar closer together, and we get a perfectly tight assembly, as illustrated in figure 5.

Les équerres 46 et les goupilles 47 peuvent être réalisées en polyamide ou en Nylon ®, et inclure des fibres de verre.The brackets 46 and the pins 47 can be made of polyamide or Nylon ®, and include glass fibers.

Enfin, on fixe le montant et la traverse adjacents l'un à l'autre au moyen d'organes d'assemblage, tels que des vis 50, engagés dans des moyens de réception prévus sur les premier et deuxième profilés 9, 10. Ces moyens de réception comprennent d'une part des orifices 51 prévus sur le montant - respectivement la traverse - et d'autre part l'orifice 36 et le logement 21 de la traverse - respectivement du montant - adjacent(e).Finally, the amount and the crosspiece adjacent to each other are fixed by means of assembly members, such as screws 50, engaged in means of reception provided on the first and second profiles 9, 10. These means of reception include on the one hand orifices 51 provided on the upright - respectively the cross - and on the other hand the orifice 36 and the housing 21 of the crosspiece - respectively of the upright - adjacent (e).

Le montage et la fixation s'effectuent par trois points régulièrement répartis, à savoir la cavité 26 recevant l'équerre 46, l'orifice 36 et le logement 21 recevant les vis 50, ce qui permet un très bon positionnement et un excellent maintien.The mounting and fixing are carried out by three regularly distributed points, at know the cavity 26 receiving the bracket 46, the orifice 36 and the housing 21 receiving the screws 50, which allows very good positioning and excellent support.

On décrit maintenant le dormant 3, en référence aux figures 1 à 3.We will now describe the frame 3, with reference to Figures 1 to 3.

Au moins un montant ou une traverse du dormant comprend :

  • un troisième profilé 52, sensiblement parallélépipédique, apte à coopérer avec la deuxième branche 12 du premier profilé 9 constitutif d'un montant ou d'une traverse de l'ouvrant 1. Le troisième profilé 52 est ainsi lié à l'organe de rotation 4, lui-même lié à la deuxième branche 12 ;
  • un quatrième profilé 53 comprenant un premier segment 54 s'étendant selon la direction D1 et situé en regard du troisième profilé 52, et un deuxième segment 55 s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement au premier segment, selon la direction D2, apte à coopérer avec la deuxième aile 29 du deuxième profilé 10. A cet effet, un joint 56 peut être prévu sur le deuxième segment 55, en regard de la deuxième aile 29, dans le cas où le joint 40 du deuxième profilé 10 ne comprend pas de partie supplémentaire 45, située à l'extérieur de la gorge 30 ;
  • des moyens d'isolation, tels que des barrettes 57 en polyamide, reliant les troisième et quatrième profilés 52, 53. Ces barrettes permettent d'assurer, à l'intérieur du dormant 3, une isolation entre l'extérieur E et l'intérieur I de la construction recevant l'ouverture.
At least one upright or cross member of the frame includes:
  • a third section 52, substantially parallelepiped, capable of cooperating with the second branch 12 of the first section 9 constituting an upright or a cross member of the opening 1. The third section 52 is thus linked to the rotation member 4 , itself linked to the second branch 12;
  • a fourth profile 53 comprising a first segment 54 extending in the direction D1 and located opposite the third profile 52, and a second segment 55 extending substantially perpendicular to the first segment, in the direction D2, able to cooperate with the second wing 29 of the second profile 10. For this purpose, a seal 56 can be provided on the second segment 55, opposite the second wing 29, in the case where the seal 40 of the second profile 10 does not include an additional part 45, located outside the groove 30;
  • insulation means, such as bars 57 made of polyamide, connecting the third and fourth sections 52, 53. These bars make it possible to ensure, inside the frame 3, insulation between the outside E and the inside I of the building receiving the opening.

Enfin l'ouverture peut comprendre des moyens aptes à coopérer d'une part avec les barrettes 57 du dormant 3 et d'autre part avec la lèvre souple 38 du deuxième profilé 10 constitutif d'un montant ou d'une traverse de l'ouvrant 1. Ces moyens peuvent être constitués par un joint 58 (figures 1 et 2) ou par une paroi 59 saillant d'une barrette 57 vers le deuxième profilé 10.Finally, the opening may include means capable of cooperating on the one hand with the bars 57 of the frame 3 and on the other hand with the flexible lip 38 of the second profile 10 constituting an upright or a cross member of the opening 1. These means can be constituted by a seal 58 (Figures 1 and 2) or by a wall 59 projecting from a bar 57 towards the second profile 10.

Ainsi, lorsque l'ouvrant 1 est en position fermée, il existe, entre l'extérieur E et l'intérieur I de la construction recevant l'ouverture, et selon la direction D1, deux chambres 60, 61, séparées par un moyen 58, 59 isolant. On obtient ainsi une meilleure isolation thermique, et également une meilleure isolation acoustique, par diminution du volume de résonance, et ce bien que l'aluminium soit un matériau acoustiquement et thermiquement mauvais isolant.Thus, when the opening 1 is in the closed position, there exists, between the exterior E and the interior I of the building receiving the opening, and in the direction D1, two chambers 60, 61, separated by an insulating means 58, 59. We thus obtain a better thermal insulation, and also better acoustic insulation, by reducing the resonance volume, even though aluminum is a acoustically and thermally poor insulating material.

Selon la direction D2, il existe également deux couples de chambres 60, 62 et 61, 63, ce qui améliore encore la qualité de l'ouverture.According to direction D2, there are also two couples of rooms 60, 62 and 61, 63, which further improves the quality of the opening.
