Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector for spacer hollow profiles for insulating glass with U- or box-shaped cross-section, which is designed as a straight, angled, corner or crossing connector.
  • This connector is provided with a bottom part and two longitudinal side webs, which may be formed as upstanding leg from the ground.
  • the bottom part forms together with the longitudinal side webs the body of the connector, wherein on the longitudinal sides outwardly projecting, preferably elastically deformable lamellae are arranged for each male portion, which can be made inclined or bent, the inclination or bending can be formed in the insertion direction to the rear ,
  • the document DE 20 2004 004 933 U1 discloses a connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • connectors of this type are known, but cause problems especially in modern, very thin-walled and often made of multiple materials spacer hollow sections. These problems include, above all, that the hold of the connector in the spacer hollow profile can not always be guaranteed, since the spacer hollow profiles often have significant tolerances on their inside.
  • pressure through the connector on the spacer hollow profile must not be too large, since this is otherwise deformed.
  • the invention is therefore an object of the invention to overcome these problems and to propose a connector on the one hand holds securely in the spacer hollow profile, but this does not deform.
  • This object is achieved in that are provided in the region of the technological ends of the legs elevations.
  • elevations are formed as longitudinal webs whose ends can be formed bevelled.
  • the connector can slide very well into the respective hollow profile end.
  • the elevations are arranged on the edges of the legs facing away from the ground.
  • a further embodiment of the invention which is very advantageous according to the invention is when the elevations are arranged on the outwardly protruding lamellae and / or at the transition between the legs and the lamellae.
  • transition between bottom and leg is rounded at least in the interior of the connector.
  • a further very advantageous development of the invention is when the edge of the slats pointing away from the legs are formed obliquely and / or that the slats at the level of the free end of the legs has a greater extension in terms of connector width, as in the direction of the bottom.
  • This space can be created for any seams in the spacer hollow profile.
  • Another very advantageous embodiment of the invention is also present when in the region of the transition between the bottom and leg on the outside sealing ribs are provided, which can be adapted to the contour of a spacer hollow profile.
  • sealing ribs are part of individual slats.
  • Another very advantageous development of the invention is when a supporting and / or stabilizing device is provided in the region of the free ends of the legs, preferably in the region of the middle of the longitudinal extent of the connector between the two legs.
  • the supporting and / or stabilizing device is designed as a grid, strut combination or the like.
  • the supporting and / or stabilizing device is arranged below the maximum height of the connector.
  • An extremely advantageous embodiment of the invention is when a sealing device for sealing the joint of the spacer hollow profile ends to be joined is arranged on the supporting and / or stabilizing device.
  • a very advantageous development of the invention is also present when the plug-in stops are arranged in the region of the middle of the longitudinal extent of the connector, wherein the stops can be provided on the outer sides of the side webs.
  • a U-shaped connector for spacer hollow sections for Mehrissuenisoliergläser designated.
  • This connector 1 consists essentially of a bottom 2 and two attached to the edges of the bottom 2 longitudinal side webs 3 and 4, so that the U-shaped profile of the connector 1 is defined.
  • a center stop 6 are likewise provided on the outer sides of the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4 for each insertion direction, which limits the insertion depth of the connector 1 into the hollow profiles.
  • the center stops 6 are each assigned a compensation element 7, which is provided opposite the center stops 6 on the other longitudinal side web 3 and 4, respectively.
  • the center stop 6 is elastically resilient and on the one hand ensures that the hollow profile ends are not pushed over the center of the connector and also that the hollow profile ends rest against the compensating elements 7. on the other hand Any manufacturing tolerances of the hollow profile are compensated. A wobble of the connector 1 in the hollow profile is avoided.
  • the Mitteneau 6 can also experience a partial plastic Umfonmung. In general, a superposition of plastic and elastic deformation will be provided, as it also forces acting on the spacer hollow profile from the inside can be reduced to a minimum and so unwanted deformation thereof is avoided.
  • the compensating elements 7 can additionally stiffen the connector in the radial direction and also in the transverse direction.
  • the bottom 2 may have one or more openings (not shown) and / or depressions on the outside of the bottom 2 in each insertion direction. In these wells and in the openings in certain pinned hollow profiles can be caulked, creating a solid mechanical connection is created. However, this is just one of the many design possibilities.
  • the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4 are formed starting from the bottom 2 tapered.
  • the transition between the bottom 2 and the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4 are each rounded. This embodiment increases the stability with respect to transverse forces. Nevertheless, the upper ends of the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4 are flexible.
  • the outwardly projecting slats 5 can, as shown in the embodiments, be inclined and extend in the direction of the free ends of the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4 to the outside. This means that the upper ends of the slats 5 produce a larger overall width of the connector 1 than the lower ends.
  • the slats 5 occupy the entire height of the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4. Thus, it is quite sufficient, as shown in the embodiments, that they occupy only half the height of the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4.
  • the lamellae 5 are arranged at the upper end of the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4.
  • the lamellae 5 may be formed tapering starting from the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4, whereby even at the ends of a further improved flexibility is produced and thus there is a very good adaptation to width tolerances of the spacer hollow profiles.
  • sealing ribs 8 are still provided, which are designed to be resilient against the slats 5. These can prevent a flow of drying agent to the joints of the spacer hollow profiles below the slats 5.
  • the sealing ribs 8 can leave a space for any connecting seams of the spacer hollow profiles free.
  • elevations 9 are formed comparatively narrow and can be removed or bent at a too high a height from the spacer hollow profile when pushed onto the connector 1. This adjustment of the connector height ensures that the pressure on the spacer hollow profile is not too great, so that it can be deformed. In addition, even with larger manufacturing tolerances of the spacer hollow profile, these occur mainly by the multi-component construction of the spacer hollow profile, especially metal and plastic, on, an optimal adjustment of the connector and so a good fit of the same.
  • the elevations 9 are connected only to a part of the respective slats 5.
  • connector 1 For easier insertion of the connector 1 in spacer hollow sections of the connector 1 may be formed beveled at its ends.
  • the connector body formed by the bottom 2 and the longitudinal side webs 3 and 4 can be reinforced or stabilized on the open side.
  • a stiffener 11 is conceivable, as shown in the second embodiment.
  • the stiffener 11 is constructed of intersecting struts 12.
  • other strut combinations can be used.
  • the stiffener 11 is preferably provided in the middle of the longitudinal extension of the connector 1, ie in the abutting region of the spacer hollow profile ends.
  • the stiffener 11 is mounted below the greatest height extent of the connector 1, wherein the maximum height is defined by the elevations 9.
  • stiffener 11 A flat design of the stiffener 11 is conceivable.
  • a sealing device 13 can still be arranged, which is able to provide a seal of the joint of the spacer hollow profile ends.
  • the sealing device 13 is preferably formed by a comparatively soft material, which conforms very well to the roof surfaces of the spacer hollow profiles. Rubber or gunumiähnliche materials are just as conceivable as soft plastics, which can easily be deformed elastically or partially elastic.
