Description

Profile for receiving pane The present invention relates to a profile for sealing a pane, wherein the profile comprises: -a main body comprising three sections, i) a base section, ii) a first section extending from the base section, the first section comprising a first inside face and a first outside face, and, iii) a second section extending from the base section, the second section comprising a second inside face and a second outside face; wherein the base section, the first inside face and the second inside face define a pane receiving groove with an opening for receiving the pane - a first lip extending along the length of the first section, a distal end of the first lip located in the pane receiving groove and facing away from the opening.

The Dutch patent application NL2009047 discloses such a profile with lips. The application describes a pressure-distributing element provided between flanges of a ridge section, at least substantially in abutment with said flanges and with a web of the ridge section that interconnects the flanges, wherein the pressure-distributing element comprises at least one spring tongue which extends inward from a part of the pressure-distributing element that abuts against one of the flanges.

A disadvantage of a prior art profile according is that when placing panes or panels in such a profile, said profile seated in spaces of frame elements forming a window, such as ridge, a gutter, a sash bar, or a purlin, the panes when not properly aligned may cause the displacement, rolling up of or damage to the profile. A rolled up, displaced or damaged profile forces construction workers to take out the pane, reposition or replace the profile and try to insert the pane again. This happens frequently as a typical pane is 1 to 2 by 2 to 3 meters large and thus cumbersome or difficult to handle due size and weight.

The profile according the invention is intended to alleviate this problem.

To this end, a profile according to the preamble is characterized in that the first lip is of a different material with respect to the material of the main body, said different material allowing more elastic deformation of the lip than the material of the main body.

In this way the chance of deformation, rolling up of or causing damage to the profile for sealing panes in greenhouse frame elements is reduced resulting in a faster fitting of panes, typically glass panes, in greenhouse frame elements facilitating a faster construction. The profile according the invention comprises at least one lip, but preferably comprises two lips. The first section comprising the lip may be located at either side of the pane the profile receives. In the case of two lips a second lip is extending along the length of the second section, a distal end of the second lip located in the pane receiving groove and facing away from the opening.

A lip of said different more elastic material allows more elastic deformation than a identically sized prior art lip made of the same material as the main body. This provides for the lip according the invention that gives in more than lips comprised in prior art profiles so the chance of displacement, rolling up or causing damage to the profile according the invention is reduced upon installing the pane. The relatively rigid main body ensures together with the flexibility of the lip, provided by the elastic material of the lip, that forces are less well transferred and the main body resists deformation and rolling up better than prior art profiles.

Suitable materials for a profile according the invention is relatively rigid Polyvinylchloride (PVC) or high density polyethylene (HDPE) in combination with relatively flexible elastomer such as polyvinylchloride comprising plasticizers, (low density) polyethylene (LDPE or PE), polypropylene (PP), or other synthetic rubbers or thermoplastic elastomers (IPE's). Preferred is that the materials can be coextruded and having the desired rigidity and elasticity after the extrusion.

This is particularly advantageous in roof structures of a greenhouse, which need to resist ingress of water. Large quantities of rain may accumulate in the gutter and on top of the roof panes if the gutter is not able to dispose of the rain sufficiently. This happens for example when the gutter is clogged or when a torrential rain occurs. If a deformed, rolled up or damaged profile goes unnoticed upon installation of a pane ingress of water at these sites is likely. Ingress of water may cause for example damage to electrical equipment. Ingress of water may also introduce pests and/or diseases into the greenhouse compartment causing damage to crops cultivated within. According to a favourable embodiment, wherein the first lip extends along the length of the first inside face.

In this way when a pane is inserted into the profile the chance of deforming or rolling up of or causing damage to, in particular damage to the lip, the profile is further reduced.

According to a favourable embodiment, a first guide is located on the first inside face in between a distal end of the first section and a proximal end of the first lip.

In this way when the pane is inserted into the profile the chance of deforming or rolling up of or causing damage to, in particular damage to the first lip, the profile is further reduced. The first guide is of such a proportion relative to the first lip to ensure guidance of the pane to touch the first lip close to a distal end and not near the proximal end of the first lip connected to the first section.

In a preferred embodiment a second guide is located on the second inside face in between a distal end of the second section and a proximal end of the second lip. The second guide is of such a proportion relative to the second lip to ensure guidance of the pane to touch the second lip close to a distal end and not near the proximal end of the second lip connected to the second section.

According to a favourable embodiment, the first guide comprises a first guide surface portion inclined towards the distal end of the first section.

In this way when the pane is inserted into the profile the chance of deforming or rolling up of or causing damage to the profile is reduced. The first guide surface portion provides for a reduced engagement of a pane to be inserted with the first guide allowing the pane to slide in more easily when the pane is not properly aligned with the pane receiving groove.

According to a favourable embodiment, the first outside face and the second outside face taper towards each other in direction of the base section.

In this way the chance of displacing or rolling up of the profile is further reduced. The first outside face and the second outside face when inserted are thus biased against opposite walls of a profile receiving groove in a greenhouse frame element, such as ridge, a gutter, a sash bar, or a purlin. The acute angle between the first outside face and the second outside face is typically between 2 and 45 degrees, preferably between 3 and 30 degrees more preferably between 4 and 25 degrees and even most preferable between 5 and 20 degrees.

According to a favourable embodiment, an acute angle between the first lip and the first section is between 10 and 60 degrees, preferably between 10 and 45 degrees and even most preferably between 10 and 30 degrees.

In this way the chance of displacing or rolling up of the profile is further reduced because when the pane is inserted into the profile it is less likely to latch onto the first lip. in a preferred embodiment comprising a second lip an acute angle between the second lip and the second section is between 10 and 60 degrees, preferably between 10 and 45 degrees and even most preferably between 10 and 30 degrees.

According to a favourable embodiment, at least one male element and/or female element is located at the first outside face and/or the second outside face at a distance from the base section.

In this way the chance of displacing or rolling up of the profile is further reduced. The male element and/or female element engage in a snaplock manner with corresponding respective female element and/or male element present in profile receiving grooves comprised in greenhouse frame elements, such as a ridge, a gutter, a sash bar, or a purlin. To provide a good snaplocking function the male or female element 1s located at a distance from the base section to which the sections hinge for snaplocking in position.

According to a favourable embodiment, the at least one male element is a rib along the length of the first section and/or the second section.

In this way the chance of displacing, rolling up of or causing damage to the profile is further reduced. A male element does not weaken the structure of the main body like a groove would. Male elements also allow more easy insertion of the profile in greenhouse frame elements, because male elements in a profile receiving groove of a greenhpouse frame element may engage with the base section when the profile is inserted. Additionally it provides a better sealing between the profile and greenhouse frame elements by extending along the length of the profile.

According to a favourable embodiment, the at least one male 5 element or the rib is of a dimension smaller than a dimension of a corresponding female element for receiving the male element or corresponding groove for receiving the rib in a profile receiving groove of a greenhouse frame element.

In this way the sash bar seals better to profile receiving grooves of greenhouse frame elements. production tolerances cause slight deviations of sizes of male and female dimensions, i.e. they can be slight bigger or smaller than desired. Providing a male element or rib on the profile that is smaller than desired can accomodate for these production tolerances allowing the first outside face and/or the second outside face of the profile to abut and thus abut against the corresponding walls of a corresponding profile receiving groove in a greenhouse frame element.

According to a favourable embodiment, the at least one male element on the first outside face and/or the second outside face comprises a male element surface portion with a decline towards the outside face in direction from the distal end towards the proximal end of the section at which the male element is located.

in this way the profile can be inserted more easily into a profile receiving groove of a greenhouse frame element. The inclined surface portion of the male elements reduces engagement of the male elements with the edges and the inside walls of the profile receiving groove upon insertion.

The present invention also relates to a method for production of the profile according any of claims 1 to 7, wherein the profile is produced in a single step using coextrusion.

In this way a profile according the invention is produced with a reduced occurence of faulty connections between lips and main bodies resulting in a profile better resisting deformation, rolling up and damage when used in construction of green houses.

Finally, the present invention relates to a method of construction of a greenhouse comprising greenhouse frame elements defining a window, wherein at least one greenhouse frame element comprises a profile receiving groove for accomodating a profile for sealing a pane to said greenhouse frame element, wherein the method comprises the steps of: - inserting the profile according any of claims 1 to 7 in the profile receiving groove of said greenhouse frame element, and - inserting the pane in the profile.

In this way the chance of deformation, rolling up of or causing damage to the profile during insertion of a pane is reduced resulting in a faster and more reliable fitting of panes, in particular glass panes, in greenhouse frame elements, facilitating a faster and thus cheaper construction.

According to a favourable embodiment, the method further comprises the step of snapping the profile in the profile receiving groove, said profile receiving groove comprising a female element and/or a male element for engaging with a respective corresponding male element and/or a corresponding female element located at/in the first outside face of the profile.

In this way the chance of deformation, rolling up or otherwise displacing the profile is further reduced resulting in a faster fitting of panes, in particular glass panes, in greenhouse frame elements facilitating a faster construction.

According to a favourable embodiment, the method further comprises a step of positioning the profile in abutment with a further section of a further profile near or preferably against a proximal end of a further lip of said further profile.

In this way sealing of a glass pane in the frame element using profiles is improved and leakage of water into the greenhouse compartment will be reduced.

According to a favourable embodiment, a pane bearing plane is defined, when a pane is supported, by the interface between the pane and a part of the profile that supports the pane, said pane bearing plane running parallel to a longitudinal direction of the further profile; and wherein the step of positioning the profile comprises that the pane bearing plane prior positioning the pane intersects only with the further lip but not with a further guide, a further inside face and a further pane support.

In this way if leakage is to occur it will be at a preferred place above a gutter, in particular a lateral gutter, preventing further damage in the greenhouse compartment. Damage includes damage to electrical equipment, damage through flooding or damage to plants caused by pathogens carried by the water leaking into the greenhouse compartment. The present invention will now be illustrated with reference to the drawing where Fig. 1 illustrates an isometric view of a greenhouse roof section comprising profiles according the invention; Fig. 2 illustrates a detail view of a sash bar, profiles and a pane according the embodiment illustrated in figure 1; Fig. 3 illustrates a detail view of the connection between the sash bar, profiles and gutter according the embodiment illustrated in figure 1; Fig. 4a illustrates a transverse section of a profile with a biased first section and a biased second section according the invention; and Fig. 4b illustrates a transverse section of a biased profile according figure 4a positioned in a sash bar.

Figure la illustrates an isometric view of a greenhouse roof section 100 comprising the following greenhouse frame elements: a gutter 101 is defined by an elongated tube like structure, comprising a top gutter 102 located at the top surface of the tube like structure, a lower gutter 103 defined by the lumen within the tube like structure, and a lateral gutter 104 defined by a walled flange attached to a side of the tube like structure, the lateral gutter 104 fluidly connected to the lower gutter 103 by through holes (not shown) in the wall of the tube like structure in between the lumen of the walled flange and the lumen of the tube like structure, a glass pane 110 and a sash bar 120 held in position by clip 130 fixed to a lower flange 105. The sashbar is being supported by the lower flange 105 and the glas pane 110 is being supported by an upper flange 106, the distal edges of the lower flange 105 and the distal end of the upper flange 106 being located above the lateral gutter 104 so leaked in or condensated water collected at the upper flange 106 or lower flange 105 runs of via the lateral gutter 104 and the through holes into the lower gutter 103. The sash bar 120 accomodates a profile 140 according the invention in a profile receiving groove for holding said profile. The sash bar 120 also shows a profile receiving groove accomodating a profile 140', identical to profile 140, with a pane received in a pane receiving groove of said profile 140'. The profile according this embodiment is discussed in more detail here below.

Figure 2 illustrates a detail view of the embodiment according figure 1, more particular a detail isometric view comprising a transverse section of the profile 140, 140' and the glass pane 110 positioned in the sash bar 120. The profile receiving grooves for holding profiles 140, 140' are defined by a sash bar upper part 221 and a sash bar lower part 222 connected by a sash bar web 223. The profile 140, 140' according the invention is formed by a main body comprising three sections: a base section 241 positioned parallel to the sash bar web 223, a first section 242 with a first outside face and a first inside face, and a second section 243 with a second inside face and a second outside face.

The base section 241, the first inside face of the first section 242 and the second inside face of the second section 243 define a groove for receiving a pane, the pane receiving groove 244 having an opening for receiving a pane opposite to the base secti on 241. The pane receiving groove 244 is lined by the first inside face and the second inside face, comprising a first lip 245 and a second lip 246 respectively.

The first lip 245 and the second lip 246 are connected with their respective proximal end to a first inside face 247 of the first section 242 and a second inside face 248 of the second section 243 respectively.

The distal ends of the first lip 245 and the second lip 246 face away from the opening for receiving a pane forming an acute angle with the first section 242 and the second section 243 respectively, defining a vertex of each acute angle at the proximal end of each respective lip.

The first lip 245 and the second lip 246 are made from a different material than the main body, the material of the first lip 245 and the second lip 246 is more elastic than the material of the main body.

The improved flexibility, provided by the elastic material of the lips, allows the first lip 245 and the second lip 246 to yield to the glas pane edge and glass pane surface when the glass pane is being inserted.

In contrast the more rigid material of the main body ensures that the profile 140 does not deform readily when a force is exerted on the first lip 245 and/or the second lip 246 when a glass pane is being inserted in the pane receiving groove 244. Additionally, when the pane 110 is positioned in the profile receiving groove of the sash bar 120 comprising the profile

140 according the invention and the greenhouse is in use, dirt will primarily accumulate in between the surface of the glass pane 110 and the first lip 245' and eventually in between the surface of the glass pane and the second lip 246'. The elasticity of the first lip 245' and second lip 246' allows the lips to yield to dirt particles that precipitate and accumulate in contact with the first lip 245' and/or the second lip 246' without the surounding lip area releasing from the pane surface. The elasticity of the first lip 245' and the second lip 246' thus also allows the surface of the lip to better follow the contours of the glass pane with or without the accumulated dirt on its surface sealing in the pane 110 in the sash bar 120 more effectively than prior art profiles. The coextruded profile according the invention also provides improved sealing of glass panes compared to prior art profiles due the elasticity of material used for coextrusion of the lip.

The first lip 245 and the second lip 246 are connected with their respective proximal end at the first inside face 247 and the second inside face 248 respectively. The distal ends of the first section 242 and the second section 243 define the opening of the pane receiving groove 244. A first guide 251 is located on the first inside face 247 in between the distal end of the first section 242 and the first lip

245.

The first guide 251 comprises a first guide surface portion 253 directed towards the distal end of the first section 242. A second guide 252 is located on the second inside face 248 in between the distal end of the second section 243 and the second lip 246. When a pane is inserted through the opening into the pane receiving groove 244 the first guide 251 and the second guide 252 prevent engagement of a pane to be inserted with the proximal end of the first lip 245 and the proximal end of the second lip 246 respectively. The first guide surface portion 253 provides for a reduced engagement of a pane to be inserted with the first guide 251 when the pane is not properly aligned with the groove receiving groove 244. Thus a pane can be smoothly inserted and chance of damage to the elastic material of the first lip 245 and/or the second lip 246 is reduced ensuring the integrity of both the lips and the connection of the lips to the main body. The second inside face 248 also contains additional pane supports 255, 255' located in between the second lip 243 and the base section 241 for supporting a pane when it is received in the pane receiving groove 244.

The first section 242 has a first outside face 249 comprising a first section rib 261. The second section 243 has a second outside face 250 comprising a second section rib 262. The sash bar 120 comprises rib receiving grooves 263, 264 for receiving and engaging with the first section rib 261 and a second section rib 262 respectively. In this embodiment the male elements the first section rib 261 and the second section rib 262 are slightly smaller than a volume the female elements the rib receiving grooves 263, 264 can accomodate allowing proper abutment of the first outside face 249 and the second outside face 250 against the walls of the profile receiving groove in the sash bar 120. The first section rib 261 comprises a surface portion with a decline towards the outside face in direction from the distal end of the first section 242 towards the proximal end of the first section 242. The first section rib 261 also comprises a surface portion with a decline towards the outside face in direction from the distal end of the second section 243 towards the proximal end of the first section 243. These declining surface portions facilitate entry of the profile into the profile receiving groove in the sash bar 120 by reducing engagement of the male elements with the edges of the opening and the walls of the profile receiving groove. The profile 140 is snaplocked in place in the sash bar 120 reducing the chance that when a pane is inserted in the profile receiving groove 244 the profile 140 deforms, rolls up or moves out of position.

Figure 3 illustrates a detail view of the connection between the sash bar, profiles and gutter according the embodiment illustrated in figure 1. The sash bar 120 is oriented transverse with its longitudinal direction relative to the longitudinal direction of the gutter 101. In this embodiment a pane bearing plane is defined, when a pane is supported, by the interface between the pane and the second guide 252, the second lip 246 and the additional pane supports 255, 255' of the profile, said pane bearing plane running parallel to a longitudinal direction of a further profile 340. The pane bearing plane intersects or interfaces only with the further lip 346 but not with a further guide 352, a further inside face 348 and a further pane support 355. This provides a bias of the further lip 346 to eventually give in first to pressure of a volume of water on top of the greenhouse roof and let water leak in at a preferred location so water leaking in may be collected in the lateral gutter 104 (not shown, see figure 1) located below the further section 343.

The profiles 140, 140' extend along the profile receiving grooves S in the sash bar 120 and the assembly of profiles 140, 140' and the sash bar 120 abuts perpendicularly against the further profile 340 in a cutout to ensure proper sealing. Because profiles 140, 140' and thus the lips of profiles 140, 140' abut perpendicularly in a cutout against a further lip 346 of the further profile 340 a gap between the second lip 246, the further lip 346 and a pane to be placed is smaller and sealing is improved. Due the smaller size of the gap dirt carried along with water eventually leaking in between the pane and profiles will clog the gap quicker and further reduce leaking with the progress of time.

Figure 4a illustrates a transverse section of a profile 440 with a biased first section 442 and a biased second section 443. The bias is such that the distal ends, which are free to move relative to each other, of the biased first section 442 and the biased second section 443 are relatively far from each other, while the proximal ends of the biased first section 442 and the biased second section 443 are relatively close to each other. In effect the first outside face 449 and the second outside face 450 taper toward each other in direction of the base section 441 that is in the direction from the distal ends towards the proximal ends of the biased first section 442 and the biased second section 443. Hence the opening of the pane receiving groove 444 is thus wider compared to when it 1s positioned in a sash bar, see figure 4 as discussed next.

Figure 4b illustrates a transverse section of a biased profile according figure 4a positioned in a profile receiving groove of sash bar 120. The first outside face 449 of the biased first section 442 and second outside face 450 of the biased second section 443 abut against opposite walls of the profile receiving groove. Additionally the first section rib 461 and the second rib 462 are engaged with respective rib receiving grooves 463, 464 located within the opposite walls of the profile receiving groove providing and securing a snaplocked position of the profile 440 in the profile receiving groove.
