Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sill assembly.
  • the sill assembly may for example be used for a window or door.
  • an adhesive such as glue may be applied to abutting surfaces of the plinth block and sill, in order to enhance the connection therebetween.
  • Integrally formed connecting means may provide a strong and/or easy and/or quick connection of the sill and the plinth block to each other.
  • the sill is made of a solid plastic material, and said sill is made by machining and/or milling.
  • a (pressed) plastic starting material for example in the form of a plate or beam, is provided that is machined and/or milled into the shape of a sill.
  • a relatively thick plastic starting material may be required, which is relatively expensive in comparison to separate, multiple starting material parts that together have a same thickness. If said sill is made of a basic sill part and a stop block, said sill parts may be made separately of separate starting materials, thereby creating less waste and/or lower production costs and/or less production time.
  • An advantage of this embodiment is that said basic sill part my require only one type of connecting means to which both the stop block(s) and the plinth block(s) may connect, which results in a relatively simple basic sill part that may in particular be suitable for different applications.
  • the connecting means may be arranged as a substantially continuous type of connection means extending over at least a large part of the length of the basic sill part.
  • the stop block and the plinth block may be connected to the basic sill part at any location along the length thereof.
  • the plinth block and stop block may in particular be connected to the basic sill part adjacent to each other, optionally with a sealing therebetween.
  • the recess functions as a female connection part and the projection as a male connection part.
  • the sill may comprise one of the recess and the projection, and the plinth block may comprise the other one of the recess and the projection.
  • the basic sill part may comprise one of the recess and the projection, and the plinth block and the stop block may comprise the other one of the recess and the projection.
  • the snap projection preferably comprises outward extending gripping elements and is preferably arranged to be moved from a normal, spread position to a squeezed position during connection of the sill to the plinth block, or during connection of the basic sill part to the plinth block or stop block, and to move back to its spread position after connection thereof, such that the gripping elements engage to the recess of the other connecting means.
  • the basic sill part comprises a continuous recess or projection extending over substantially the entire length thereof.
  • the other one of the recess or projection is also a continuous recess or projection extending over substantially the entire length of the plinth block and/or the stop block.
  • the length of the plinth block and/or stop block is defined parallel to the length of the basic sill part when the basic sill part is connected to the plinth block and/or stop block.
  • the sill is made of a solid plastic material.
  • said plinth block is made of a solid plastic material.
  • a solid plastic material has the advantage that it is rigid without being heavy and prevents a cold bridge. Additionally a solid plastic material may be weather and/or moisture resistant.
  • the solid plastic material may increase the structural rigidity of the connecting means, and allows for a machining or milling operation to produce the connecting means.
  • the solid plastic material may be chosen from the group comprising polyvinylchoride (PVC) and polyolefines, for example Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (HMWPE) or Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE).
  • PVC polyvinylchoride
  • LDPE Low Density Polyethylene
  • LLDPE Linear Low Density Polyethylene
  • HMWPE High Molecular Weight Polyethylene
  • UHMWPE Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene
  • Both PVC and polyolefines are suitable materials.
  • the polyethylenes as listed can be recycled very well, so that preferably such recycled material is included in the sill and/or plinth blocks.
  • the material is very suitable for use in the "Sustainable building" program in the Netherlands.
  • the recycled material can in an advantageous manner -at last partly- consist of visible particles, which particles preferably have a different colour.
  • Most of the material of the sill and/or plinth blocks may for instance be black, with in it lighter pieces of recycled material, which gives it a natural appearance, when a stone-like appearance is wanted.
  • a wood pattern could also be realized in a similar manner.
  • the material has a higher ignition temperature than wood: in order to ignite permanent contact with a flame is necessary.
  • the sill is made by means of machining and/or milling.
  • said plinth block is made by means of machining and/or milling.
  • Machining and/or milling provide the advantage of being versatile so that many different shapes of sill assemblies can be made without having to invest in different moulds. Furthermore machining and/or milling may be cheap and/or quick and/or require little energy.
  • the basic sill part and the stop block may be made of solid plastic, preferably by machining and/or milling.
  • the sill is made of solid plastic by machining or milling, it is advantageous to provide the basic sill part and the stop block in order to decrease waste material and/or productions costs and/or time.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show a window and door frame 1.
  • Said frame 1 comprises a basic sill part 2 that extends along a bottom side of the frame 1 in a longitudinal direction.
  • End plinth blocks 3 are connected to both longitudinal end zones of the basic sill part 2.
  • An intermediate plinth block 4 is connected to an intermediate part of the basic sill part 2, in this example to the middle of the basic sill part 2 as seen in the longitudinal direction thereof.
  • the plinth blocks 3, 4 connect to respective posts 5 of the frame 1, which posts 5 extend substantially vertical in use of the frame 1.
  • the posts 5 may be connected to the plinth blocks 3, 4 in a conventional way, for example using screws, bolts or glue.
  • a window stop block 6 is provided between the plinth blocks 3, 4 on one side of the basic sill part 2 as seen in the longitudinal direction thereof and is connected thereto.
  • a door stop block 7 is provided between the plinth blocks 3, 4 on the other side of the basic sill part 2 as seen in the longitudinal direction thereof and is connected thereto.
  • the window stop block 6 and the door stop block 7 are hereby arranged adjacent to the plinth blocks 3, 4, optionally with a sealing provided there between (not shown in figures 1 and 2 ).
  • the basic sill part 2 comprises a continuous snap projection 8 extending over the entire length thereof, in particular along the upper side thereof.
  • the plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7 each comprise a respective recess 9 at there bottom sides for receiving the snap projection 8 of the basic sill part 2.
  • the plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7 may be connected to the basic sill part 2 using these mutually cooperating projection 8 and recesses 9.
  • the position and orientation of the plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7 with respect to the basic sill part 2 is defined in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the basic sill part 2.
  • the position of the plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7 along the length of the basic sill part 2 are suitably chosen, such that these are in their longitudinal position as described above.
  • the recesses 9 of the plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7 are in this example also formed as continuous recesses 9 extending over the entire lengths of the respective plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7.
  • the length of the plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7 is hereby defined parallel to the length of the basic sill part 2.
  • the basic sill part 2 further comprises a continuous recess 10 extending over the entire length thereof, in particular along the bottom side thereof.
  • Said recess 10 is suitable for connecting to a snap projection 11 of a water bar 12, which water bar 12 may thereby be connected to the bottom of the basic sill part 2 along and side end zone thereof.
  • the snap projection 11 hereby extends along the entire length of the water bar 12, in particular along the upper side thereof.
  • a sill assembly of the window and door frame 1 comprises said basic sill part 2, said plinth blocks 3, said stop 6, 7 and said water bar 12. It is noted however that said sill assembly may comprise any suitable parts and is not limited to this example. In particular it may comprise less or additional parts, which additional parts may be similar or different parts. It is also possible that said basic sill part is formed as one integral sill with said stop blocks 6, 7 and/or said water bar 12, to which sill said plinth blocks may be connected using mutually cooperating connecting means.
  • the basic sill part 2, stop blocks 6, 7, plinth blocks 3, 4 and water bar 12 are made of a solid plastics material, for example by machining and/or milling a starting plastic material.
  • the projection 8 and recesses 9 thereof may for example be made by milling.
  • the posts 5 are hollow profiles made of any suitable material.
  • Figure 3 is a simplified view of the frame 1 of figures 1 and 2 in which the vertical posts are not shown. The adjacent and in particular abutting relationship of the plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7 is clearly shown in this figure 3 .
  • This figure 3 further shows that the plinth blocks 3, 4 provide a flat upper surface for connecting the vertical posts thereto.
  • Figure 3 further shows that the upper surfaces of the plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7 are arranged in the same horizontal plane, i.e. extend at the same height and form one continuous, flat surface.
  • Figure 4 shows the mutually cooperating connecting means in the form of snap projection 8 of the basic sill part 2 with recesses 9 of plinth blocks 3, 4 and stop blocks 6, 7, and recess 10 of the basic sill part 2 with snap projection 11 of the water bar 12 in more detail.
  • the snap projections 8, 11 comprise outward extending gripping elements 13.
  • the snap projections 8, 11 are inserted in respective recesses 9, 10, the snap projections 8, 11 are pressed inwards by a relatively small, neck part 15 of the recesses 9, 10 from their normal, spread position as shown in figure 4 into a squeezed position (not shown). After passing the neck part 15 the snap projections 8, 11 move back to their spread position, in which position the gripping elements 13 engage onto engaging surfaces 14 of the recesses 9, 10.
  • a strong connection between the basic sill part 2 with plinth blocks 3, 4, stop blocks 6, 7, and water bar 12 is hereby made.
  • Figure 5 shows the plinth block 3 that is connected to basic sill part 2 using the mutually cooperating connecting means in the form of recess 9 and projection 8 thereof.
  • the vertical post 5 is to be connected to the plinth block 3 using conventional means as described above.
  • This figure 5 shows that the shape of the upper surface of the plinth block 3 is in this example adapted to and in particular identical to the shape of the lower surface of the post 5.
  • the post 5 is thereby to be fixed to the plinth block 3 in one determined way, in which the mating surfaces of the plinth block 3 and post 5 are aligned.
  • Figure 6 shows a door 17 which is closed against the stop block 7 of the sill assembly with a stop 16, which stop block 7 is connected to the basic sill part 2 as described above.
  • Figure 7 shows a window 18, in particular the lower, horizontal frame part thereof, which is closed against the stop block 6 of the sill assembly with a stop 19, which stop block 6 is connected to the basic sill part 2 as described above.
  • Figure 8 shows the post 5 that is attached to the plinth block 3, which plinth block 3 is connected to the basic sill part 2 as described above.
  • FIGS 9A and 9B show a basic sill part 102 according to a second embodiment. Only the differences with the basic sill part 2 of figures 1 - 8 will be described here. For a further description of the basic sill part 102 the reader is referred to the description of figures 1-8 .
  • the basic sill part 102 comprises a recess 132 along a longitudinal side surface thereof. Said recess 132 is arranged to receive a projection 131 of an extension element 130.
  • the extension element 130 increases the width of the basic sill part 102.
  • the extension element 130 shown in figure 9A has a smaller width than the extension element 130 of figure 9B . As such, the total width of the sill formed by the basic sill part 102 and extension element 130 is smaller for the sill of figure 9A than the sill of figure 9B . This shows that by connecting suitable elements to the basic sill part the dimensions and/or shape of the sill may be suitably chosen.
