Definitions
- the present invention relates to a skylight window for being installed in a roof of a building, the skylight window comprising:
- Inclined roof windows are typically built into an opening in an inclined roof structure with an angle above 15 degrees with a substantial part of the inclined skylight window is positioned within the inclined roof structure in an installed position.
- Flat roof skylight windows are generally installed on top of the exterior side of flat roofs of buildings, where the inclination of the roof is less than 5 degrees with respect to horizontal.
- flat roof skylight windows are installed to cover an opening in the roof, i.e. a substantial part of the flat roof skylight window extends above an exterior side of the flat roof structure in an installed position.
- This roof window comprises a standard VELUX ® outwardly openable window, to the sash of which a dome-shaped weather shield is attached.
- Window sashes have typically comprised box structures consisting of hollow spacings providing structural support and thermal insulation through cavities. A typical example of such structures is presented in US2010269426 . Windows comprising such sashes have typically a quite rough appearance, and are limiting the view. What is more, these windows are usually associated with high materials and processing costs in terms of manufacturing the window sash.
- EP 2500 488 discloses a skylight window according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a skylight window according to the introduction, characterized in that the first frame side member extends above the exposed exterior major surface of the IGU in the height direction.
- the positioning of the IGU close to the frame side members may make it possible to fit an IGU in the frame with larger dimensions, in a plane of at least one of the major surfaces of the IGU, than the dimensions of the roof opening, i.e. the only obstacle for the influx of light may be a part of the frame and potentially a part of the sash supporting the peripheral sides of the IGU.
- the IGU being larger than the roof opening may increase the influx of light and can improve the view through the skylight window.
- the interior pane of the IGU may be a glazing pane.
- the interior pane may define a most interior part of the IGU.
- the interior pane may constitute a layer of glazing of the IGU.
- the interior pane may be of substantially the same size as one or more or all other layer(s) of glazing of the IGU.
- the interior pane or an exterior pane of the IGU may be of a larger size than one or more of the other layer(s) of the glazing of the IGU.
- the interior pane may be substantially identical to one or more of the other layer(s) of glazing of the IGU.
- the interior pane may be different to one or more of the other layer(s) of glazing of the IGU.
- the interior pane may comprise a first side surface extending substantially along the first frame and sash side members.
- the glazing panes of the IGU having substantially the same size may allow almost all of the light travelling through the exterior major surface to travel through the interior major surface of the skylight IGU and thus, may improve the influx of light through the skylight window.
- the exterior pane may be a flat pane or a curved pane or a domed pane or a spherical pane.
- the interior pane may comprise a first side surface extending substantially along the first frame side member which extends in the longitudinal direction, and an opposite second side surface extending along a second frame side member, in the longitudinal direction, substantially parallel with the first side surface.
- the total width of the interior major surface may be a total length of a third side surface of the interior pane extending in the lateral direction from the first side surface and to the second opposite, parallel side surface of the interior pane.
- the IGU may comprise an exterior-most layer of glazing of the skylight window.
- the exterior-most layer of glazing of the skylight window may be an interior or top pane of the IGU.
- the exposed exterior major surface of the IGU may be the exterior-most layer of glazing of the skylight window.
- the exterior-most layer of glazing may be substantially identical to the one or more or all other layer(s) of glazing of the IGU.
- the IGU may have multiple layers of glass which define a volume comprising an inert gas or aerogels or vacuum.
- the IGU may in a conventional manner comprise one or, preferably two, three or more layers of glazing, i.e. layers of glass, polycarbonate or the like or glass panels, positioned at a distance from each other to form one or more spacings or cavities between them. This spacing may be filled with a gas or may hold a vacuum to improve insulation.
- the exposed interior major surface of the IGU is in that case a lower major surface of a lowermost of the layers of glazing.
- Sealing and/or supporting members may be provided at one or more of four peripheral sides of the IGU between the layers of glazing. The sealing and/or supporting members may distance adjacent layers of glazing from each other and may together with the window glazing layers' peripheral sides form side surfaces of the IGU. These side surfaces may be substantially plane and extend substantially in the height dimension.
- the second, third and fourth frame side members may have an inner side facing respective second, third and fourth peripheral sides of the IGU, wherein the first distance between the respective inner sides of the frame side members and the respective peripheral sides of the IGU is equal to or less than 20 mm, 18 mm, 16 mm, 14 mm, 12 mm, 10 mm, 8 mm, 6 mm, 5 mm, 4 mm, 3 mm, 2 mm or 1 mm.
- the sash or part of the sash may be positioned between the first frame side member and the IGU, which may allow the sash to support the IGU on the interior major surface and may allow for the sash to lift the IGU when lifting the sash.
- the sash or part of the sash can be positioned above the exterior major surface of the IGU and may be adhered to the exterior major surface, which may provide a space between the inner side of the first frame side member and the first peripheral side of the IGU
- the first sash side member may comprise a second leg.
- the second leg may extend substantially in the height direction.
- the first or second leg may be substantially plate-shaped and/or substantially solid.
- a supporting leg may extend from the second leg.
- the supporting leg may extend from an end of the second leg.
- the supporting leg may extend in the lateral direction from the second leg.
- the supporting leg may extend substantially perpendicularly from the second leg.
- substantially solid is understood as there being no holes and/or hollow spacings comprised in the material structure and/or holes or cavities on the surface.
- Having a substantially plate shaped or solid second sash leg and a short distance from the first frame side member to the IGU may make it possible to position the IGU low, in the height direction, in the frame i.e. closer to a most interior side of the window frame and closer to the interior of the building.
- a lower mounting of the IGU close to the first frame side member may increase the relative proportion the IGU takes up of a thermal energy exchange interface between the building and the skylight.
- thermal energy exchange interface refers to the areas and parts of a skylight window where the thermal energy exchange occurs i.e. the frame, the sash and the IGU.
- the IGU may have better insulating properties than other components of the skylight window. Therefore, increasing its relative proportion of the thermal energy exchange interface may improve insulating properties of the skylight window as a whole.
- the positioning of the IGU close to the first frame side member allows an increase of the dimensions of the major surfaces of the IGU, in the plane of at least one of the major surfaces, relative to a size of the skylight window i.e. a larger IGU can be fitted in an unchanged roof opening, which may increase the influx of light and can improve the view through the skylight window. Furthermore, a high influx of light and good view through the skylight window may also be achieved as less light and/or view obstructing elements of the skylight window is not positioned between the IGU and the frame side members.
- a low positioned IGU may further provide more space for an IGU with a larger height, potentially with several or higher layers of glazing or a higher gas-filled spacing between the panes, which may further improve insulation properties of the skylight window.
- the insulation properties may also be improved as less thermally conducting sash or frame material may need to be provided. The reduced the need for the sash being a certain size and/or frame being a certain size for insulation purposes, it may be possible to have a more compact frame and/or sash and thus allow for a more compact skylight window as a whole, i.e. with a lower total height and/or width.
- one or more of the frames and/or sash side members may comprise or be made substantially of polymer materials, such as plastic, specifically PVC (polyvinyl chloride), chlorinated PVC, PUR (polyurethane), fibre reinforced PUR such as glass fibre reinforced PUR, pultruded polymers, polyester, and/or glass fibre and/or wood and/or metal such as steel or aluminium or composites or combinations thereof.
- polymer materials such as plastic, specifically PVC (polyvinyl chloride), chlorinated PVC, PUR (polyurethane), fibre reinforced PUR such as glass fibre reinforced PUR, pultruded polymers, polyester, and/or glass fibre and/or wood and/or metal such as steel or aluminium or composites or combinations thereof.
- the four frame side members may together form a substantially rectangular shape. Additionally or alternatively, the four sash side members may together form a substantially rectangular shape. A rectangular shape of the four sash side members may be smaller than a rectangular shape of the four frame sash side members, in the plane of at least one of the major surfaces, which may allow the sash to be embedded within the frame.
- the first frame side member of the skylight window extends, in a height direction which is substantially perpendicular to at least one of the major surfaces of the IGU, above the exposed exterior major surface of the IGU, in a closed position of the skylight window.
- a first frame side member extending above the exposed exterior major surface improves the insulation properties of the skylight window as the IGU can be positioned in a more interior position in the skylight window.
- Another advantage of the first frame side member extending above the IGU in the height direction is that, in an installed position, the first frame side member can protect the skylight window from weather and guide water on the roof surface away/around the IGU and thus, avoid accumulation of precipitation and dirt on the IGU.
- the weather shield is a weather shield without a sealed gas-filled spacing between the weather shield and the IGU. Without the sealed gas-filled spacing the weather shield and the IGU may be considered as two separate components of the skylight window.
- the spacing between the IGU and the weather shield can be more than 1 mm, 2mm, 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, 35, mm, 40 mm, 45 mm, 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm, 90 mm, 100 mm, 110 mm, 120 mm, in the height direction. Without the sealed gas-filled spacing between the weather shield and the IGU, the IGU can be positioned more interior in the skylight window and thus, improve the insulation of the skylight window as a whole.
- the weather shield may be provided as a unitary structure, which is detachably attached to the sash so as to protect a window portion of the skylight window, the window portion comprising the sash, the frame, and the IGU, the weather shield comprising a weather shield pane.
- the weather shield may be attached detachably to the sash, providing for access to clean the IGU. This may also be of advantage during installation of the skylight window, e.g. when positioning or attaching the window portion or when attaching roofing felt to cover a potential gap between the frame and the roof structure. Further, it allows for the weather shield to be replaced if damaged.
- the weather shield may be mounted on the window portion to protect it from the weather and preventing rain and other precipitation from entering into gaps or slots in the roof or the window portion.
- the exterior major surface of the IGU may act as a weather shield as it is exposed to the exterior.
- the exterior major surface of the IGU acting as weather shield can allow for a shorter skylight window in the height direction as it eliminates the need for a separate weather shield.
- the first frame side member has a total frame member width which is a largest width of the first frame side member in the outwards direction, wherein said first distance is equal to or less than 50%, 45%, 40%, 35%, 30%, 25%, 20%, 15%, 10% of the total frame member width.
- These embodiments may add to improved insulating properties of the skylight window as they may define a smaller spacing between the first frame side member and the first peripheral side of the IGU, which potentially may comprise elements in the spacing such as the sash and thus, the relative area of the superior insulating IGU is increased relative to other parts in the spacing of the skylight window.
- the first sash side member and the first frame side member comprise upper sections, the upper sections being a part located above the interior major surface of the IGU in the height direction extends substantially away from the peripheral side of the IGU.
- the upper sections extending substantially away from the peripheral sides of the IGU may improve the influx of light and the view out of the skylight window, as no obstacles are blocking light from the exterior. Having the sections extending away from the IGU may even improve the light further as it can work as a funnel for light from the exterior towards the interior.
- a maximum height distance in the height direction from the interior major surface of the IGU to a lowermost interior side of the first frame side member is equal to or less than 100 mm, 90 mm, 80 mm 70 mm, 60 mm, 50 mm, 40 mm, 35 mm. This may position the IGU closer to or beneath the plan of a roof surface in an installed position of the skylight window, which may reduce the thermal conductivity of the skylight window. Thus, allowing the IGU to be positioned at a low position in the window frame may improve the insulating properties of the skylight window.
- the weather shield may comprise a skirt that extend on an outer side of one or more or all four sides of the frame, i.e. of the respective frame side members.
- the skirt may be manufactured from or include metal.
- the weather shield pane may curve upwardly in relation to the window portion or the IGU to allow for rain and snow to slide or flow off the weather shield pane.
- the weather shield pane is a transparent or translucent weather shield pane that is made of a transparent or translucent material e.g. of glass or hardened glass or polymer.
- the weather shield pane may comprise only one single layer of glazing, no further layers of glazing besides those of the weather shield potentially being provided in the skylight window.
- the weather shield pane may be dome-shaped or substantially flat.
- the weather shield pane may be of glass or of a plastic polymer.
- the skylight window is an inclined skylight window.
- Inclined skylight windows are typically built into an opening in an inclined roof structure with an angle above 15 degrees relative to horizontal with a substantial part of the inclined skylight window positioned within the inclined roof structure in an installed position.
- the skylight window is installed in a flat roof, which may have an inclination equal to or less than 5 degrees relative to horizontal.
- the skylight is installed in an inclined roof, with an inclination equal to or more than 15 degrees relative to horizontal.
- the skylight is to be installed in a roof with an inclination between 5 and 15 degrees relative to horizontal.
- the skylight window further comprises a lining panel protrusion located lower than the exposed interior major surface of the IGU in the height direction, wherein the interior pane comprises a side surface extending substantially along the first frame and sash side members,
- Such protrusion can help an installer install a lining panel at the skylight window by guiding an upper end of the lining panel into contact with a first side of the protrusion, and may further ease the installation by hiding the upper end of said lining panel e.g. if the upper end is not flush with the interior side of the skylight window.
- the lining panel can be used to hide the skylight frame, for viewers, including insulation elements such as an insulting block and can thus, allow for improving the insulating properties of the skylight window as a whole.
- the skylight window may further comprise a second protrusion next to the first protrusion to create a lining panel recess for receiving a lining panel to be installed. Said lining panel recess would add to the guidance and ease of installation of the lining panel.
- the distance, in the height direction, from the interior major surface of the IGU to the lining panel protrusion is equal to or less than 50 mm, 40 mm, 30 mm or 20 mm in a closed position of the skylight window.
- the short distance from the lining panel protrusion on the interior side of the skylight window to the IGU may position the IGU low in the frame, and thus add to the influx of light and insulation properties of the skylight window as a whole, as the IGU is closer to the roof element and fewer inferior insulating elements can be between the frame and the IGU.
- the window porting comprising the sash, IGU and weather shield is hinged to rotate around a hinge axis in relation to the plane of the roof in an installed position.
- the window portion may preferably be made movable in relation to the window frame by the sash being outwardly openable, i.e. being rotatable around an axis extending along one of the sash side members.
- outwardly openable it is to be understood that the sash moves outwards from the frame during opening. This is contrary to centre hung skylights which have elements moving towards the interior and exterior during opening and employ a different design.
- the sash being outwardly hung may be achieved by using a rotary hinge positioned at the first sash side member and connecting the first sash side member with the associated, adjacent first frame side member.
- the sash may be parallel-displaceable so that all four sash side members shift upwardly or downwardly between the open and closed positions of the window in which case further or other hinges or the like connect the sash with the frame.
- the skylight window may be openable by a combination of a rotary movement and a shifting movement or other movement paths of the sash in relation to the frame.
- the hinge axis is located above the exterior major surface of the IGU in the height direction in a closed position of the skylight window. Having the skylight window opening outwards can add to the ability of the skylight window to guide water away from the roof opening even in an open position.
- the hinge axis is located above the frame in the height direction in the closed position of the window.
- the skylight window may comprise one or more thermal breaks in the sash.
- Thermal breaks can be manufactured from a material of a lower thermal conductivity than other parts of the first sash side member. This may have the advantage of improving the insulation properties of the skylight window as a lower thermal conductivity through a sash side member may be achieved.
- the thermal break may be substantially made from or comprise a polymer or foam or a foamed polymer material.
- the thermal breaks may be located on the sash side member, so that thermal bridges are avoided.
- the thermal break may be positioned above the exterior major surface of the IGU when seen in the height direction, i.e. on the exterior side of the IGU.

- the reveal or lining panel 50 covering the first frame side member 10 to provide a seamless and clean aesthetic when viewing through the skylight window 1 from an interior of the building.
- a lining panel recess 10b which is an empty spacing that accommodates an upper part or upper end of a reveal panel or lining panel 50 in the installed position of the skylight window 1.
- Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 does not comprise a lining panel recess, but just comprise a lining panel protrusion 10e.
- the weather shield 3 has a dome shaped pane 8 so as to protect the window portion.
- the weather shield is attached to the sash side member 14 above the first frame side member 10 in the height direction.
- a portion of the first sash side member extends in the height direction in a spacing, defined by the first distance.
- the first sash side member 14 is generally plate-shaped, consists of one single section of substantially solid material and at least a portion of the sash side member 14 has a thickness of 10 mm.
- the substantially plate shaped first sash side member allows for the first distance D to be 18 mm in the width direction, in the closed position of the skylight window shown as shown in Fig. 2 .
- a part of the sash extends beneath the interior major surface 5b and extends in the lateral direction substantially parallel with the interior major surface to support the IGU on the interior major surface.
- the bottom surface of the first frame side member 10a is installed on a substantially flat roof 2.
- a part of the bottom surface stretches into the roof opening, this part of the bottom surface comprises a recess 10b for a lining/reveal panel.
- the recess is to assist the installation of a lining panel after installing the skylight window.
- a first surface 10c of the recess is for abutting a lining panel to be installed.
- the embodiment depicts the skylight window with a flat pane 8 weather shield 3 and a first frame side member 10.
- the first sash side member 14 of Fig. 3 is only located above the IGU 5 and extends parallel to or away from the peripheral side 5a of the IGU.
- the first sash side member 14 is adhered to the exterior major surface of the IGU 5g e.g. by glue or a sealing member. In this way, the first sash side member 14 carries the IGU 5 in the open position (not shown) of the skylight window 1.
- the adherence provided by the first sash leg being adhered to the exposed exterior major surface 5g of the IGU may be the substantially only attachment of the first sash side member 14 to the IGU 5.
- the first sash side member 14 being above the IGU 5 allows the IGU 5 to be placed closer to the first frame side member 10.
- the first distance D between the first frame side member and the IGU is in this embodiment 1 mm.
- a single sealing member 22 is the only element between the interior major surface of the IGU 5b and the first frame side member 10, only having one element connecting the IGU and the frame improves the insulation of the skylight window as a whole.
- the bottom surface 10a of the first frame side member comprises a protrusion 10e for installation of a lining panel.
- the protrusion can provide guidance for a top end of a lining panel (not shown) and can hide the top end of said lining panel.
- the few elements between the interior major surface of the IGU 5b and the first frame side member 10 makes it possible to position the IGU 5 low in the skylight window and thus, the height distance DH between the interior major surface and the bottom surface 10a of the first frame side member is 35 mm in the height direction.
- the distance between the interior major surface 5b and the most interior surface of the frame side member would thus be 35 mm or less.
- the embodiment depicts the invention with a wide frame potentially comprising insulation members or elements in the first frame member 10.
- the frame side member 10 and the first sash side member 14 has a stepped profile in the cross-section view.
- a design cover 63 is mounted to reflect light, repel dust and to hide the stepped profile of the sash 14.
- the design cover could be replaced with a screening device such as a shade and mounted to the sash 14. The shade could be electronically controlled and in a closed position be hidden when looking out the window from the interior towards the exterior.
- the sash leg 14 further comprises a thermal break 75 to reduce the thermal conductivity of the sash leg.
- the sash leg could comprise several thermal breaks.
- the sash 14 is supporting the IGU on the major interior surface 5b and thus extends in the spacing defined by the first distance D between a peripheral side of the IGU 5a and the first frame side member 10.
- the smallest first distance D between the peripheral side of the IGU 5a and the frame side member 10 is in this embodiment 10% of the maximum width W of the frame side member 10.
- the smallest first distance D in this embodiment is 15% of the width distance DW from the first frame side member 10 to the peripheral side 5a of the IGU in a lateral direction.
- the sash 14 could be adhered to the exterior major surface of the IGU 5g to reduce the first distance D between the peripheral side of the IGU and the frame.
- the first frame side member may not be solid and allow for insulation elements or installation of e.g. a motor-driven actuator (not shown) in the first frame side member.
- a part of the motor-driven actuator could come into contact with the sash and move it between a closed and an open position.
- the frame side member 10 and/or the sash 14 may comprise or be made substantially of polymer materials, such as plastic, specifically PVC (polyvinyl chloride), chlorinated PVC, PUR (polyurethane), fibre reinforced PUR such as glass fibre reinforced PUR, and/or wood and/or metal such as aluminium or composites or combinations thereof.
- polymer materials such as plastic, specifically PVC (polyvinyl chloride), chlorinated PVC, PUR (polyurethane), fibre reinforced PUR such as glass fibre reinforced PUR, and/or wood and/or metal such as aluminium or composites or combinations thereof.
- the IGU 5 in this embodiment comprises three layers of glazing 5c, 5e, 5d in the form of glass panels, positioned at a distanced from each other by sealing members 24 located at peripheral sides of the IGU between the layers of glazing to form two spacings 51. These spacings 5l are filled with inert gas to improve insulation.
- the IGU further has an exposed interior major surface 5b facing downwards towards an interior of the building in the shown installed and closed position of the skylight window 1 and an exposed exterior major surface 5g facing in an opposite direction towards an exterior.
- the exposed interior major surface 5b is of an interior pane 5d of the IGU 5.
- the exposed interior and exterior major surfaces 5b, 5g of the IGU 5 are substantially parallel with each other and a plane defined by the roof surface, i.e. the exterior roof surface level.
- the interior pane 5d comprises a side surface 5s extending substantially along the first frame and sash side members 10, 14. It should also be noted that the top layer of glazing 5c in this embodiment is larger than the other layers of glazing 5e, 5d of the IGU 5 and extends farther in the width direction, the layers of glazing however, may be of equal size in other embodiments.
- the frame side member 10 is a box structure with a bottom surface 10a for installation on a roof surface and a recess 10b on the bottom surface positioned above the plane of said roof surface in the height direction.
- the recess 10b is for receiving a top end of a lining panel (not shown), which can abut at least one of the recess surfaces. Further, the recess 10b is for hiding the window frame 10 in an installed position when viewing the window from the interior towards the exterior.
- the sash 14 comprises a thermal break 75 to reduce the thermal conductivity of the window.
- the sash 14 supports the interior major surface of the IGU 5b and extends in the height direction in the spacing S between the frame side member 10 and a peripheral side of the IGU 5a.
- the spacing S between the peripheral side of the IGU 5a and an inner surface 10i of the frame side member in a direction substantially parallel with the interior major surface is 15 mm.
- the spacing S could be reduced by moving the sash 14 and IGU closer to a surface of the frame member in a lateral direction.
