Abstract

The plug (1) is pushed into the ends of the hollow plastics bars and is attachable to the window frame. The body of the plug is waffle shaped between two outer walls joined by a thin central cross wall (14). The breadth (B) of the dividing walls (6) of the plug is narrower than the plug and provide reinforcement without reducing the elasticity of the plug unduly. The plug can be forced into the free ends of the hollow frame members without splaying same or distorting the frame. The width of the reinforcing cross profiles (B) is about a third of the total width (D) of the plug. The end of the plug has a locating flange (7) to define the end position of the fitted plug.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Abstandshalterstopfen aus Kunststoff für aus hohlen Profilstäben bestehende Fenstersprossen von Isolierglasscheiben gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a plastic spacer plug for window bars of insulating glass panes consisting of hollow profiled bars according to the preamble of claim 1.

Der bekannte Abstandshalterstopfen (G 89 06 630) ist in der Stopfenoberfläche mit wabenartigen Vertiefungen versehen, deren Böden insgesamt eine sich in Richtung der Stopfenlängsachse erstreckende Längswand bilden, die die Stopfen damit in zwei Teile unterteilt und die Stabilität des Stopfens beim Einschlagen in die hohlen Profilstäbe sowie beim Anschießen nach dem Einschlag erheblich verbessern, indem sie die umgebenden Wände abstützen und dadurch verhindern, daß sich diese Wände in einer die Befestigungsqualität beeinträchtigenden Weise verformen. Andererseits hat sich herausgestellt, daß das elastische Verhalten des Stopfens für seinen ordnungsgemäßen Einbau in den Sprossenprofilhohlraum von wesentlicher Bedeutung ist, insbesondere wenn die Sprossenwandung sehr dünn ist, wie dies bei den heutzutage vielfach verwendeten Ziersprossen oftmals der Fall ist. Hier hat es sich gezeigt, daß die Wabenkonstruktion zwar dem Stopfen die gewünschte Festigkeit verleiht, jedoch aufgrund des gewünschten Preßsitzes zwischen Stopfen und Sprossen zu einer Verformung der Sprossenwandung beim Einschlagen des Stopfens führen kann, die das Aussehen der Sprosse im Verbindungsbereich Sprosse/Abstandsprofil beeinträchtigt. Darüber hinaus soll der Stopfen aber auch so beschaffen sein, daß er nach dem Einstecken oder Einschlagen in den Profilstabholraum nicht wieder herausrutscht, bevor die Sprosse angeschossen wird.The known spacer plug (G 89 06 630) is provided in the plug surface with honeycomb depressions, the bottoms of which form a longitudinal wall extending in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the plug, which thus divides the plug into two parts and the stability of the plug when it is driven into the hollow profile rods as well as when firing after the impact, by supporting the surrounding walls and thereby preventing these walls from deforming in a manner that affects the quality of the fastening. On the other hand, it has been found that the elastic behavior of the stopper is essential for its correct installation in the rung profile cavity, especially if the wall of the rung is very thin, as is often the case with the decorative rungs frequently used today. It has been shown here that the honeycomb construction gives the stopper the desired strength, but due to the desired press fit between stopper and rungs, it can lead to a deformation of the rung wall when the stopper is knocked in, which affects the appearance of the rung in the connection area of the rung / spacer profile. In addition, the stopper should also be such that it does not slip out again after being inserted or hammered into the profile rod cavity before the rung is shot.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht deshalb darin, einerseits die durch die Wabenkonstruktion der Sprosse erreichte Festigkeit zu erhalten, andererseits die Federungseigenschaften oder Elastizität des Stopfens in den Bereichen zu verbessern, in denen er mit der Innenwandung der Fenstersprosse in direkte Berührung tritt.The object of the invention is therefore on the one hand to maintain the strength achieved by the honeycomb structure of the rung, and on the other hand to maintain the suspension properties or elasticity to improve the plug in the areas in which it comes into direct contact with the inner wall of the window rung.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die quer zur Stopfenlängsrichtung gemessene Breite B der Querwände des Stopfens wesentlich kleiner ist als die über die beiden parallelen äußeren Randkanten gemessene Stopfenbreite, wobei sich ein Breitenverhältnis von 1 : 3 als zweckmäßig erwiesen hat.This object is achieved in that the width B of the transverse walls of the stopper measured transversely to the longitudinal direction of the stopper is substantially smaller than the stopper width measured over the two parallel outer edge edges, a width ratio of 1: 3 having proven to be expedient.

Die Querwände sind dabei zweckmäßigerweise durch eine sich in Richtung der Stopfenlängsachse erstreckende Längswand miteinander verbunden, die zusammen mit den Querwänden die Bodenwand und Deckenwand des Stopfens, die wenigstens teilweise parallel zueinander verlaufen, abstützt.The transverse walls are expediently connected to one another by a longitudinal wall extending in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the stopper, which together with the transverse walls supports the bottom wall and top wall of the stopper, which at least partially run parallel to one another.

Für die Anordnung dieser Längswand hat sich die Symmetrieebene des Stopfens als geeignet erwiesen, und die Querwände sind entlang der Längswand vorteilhafterweise in gleichem Abstand voneinander verteilt angeordnet.The plane of symmetry of the plug has proven to be suitable for the arrangement of this longitudinal wall, and the transverse walls are advantageously distributed along the longitudinal wall at an equal distance from one another.

Durch diese Bemessung der Breite der Querwände in bezug auf die Breite des Stopfens läßt sich insbesöndere in Verbindung mit der besonderen Ausbildung, daß die über die seitlichen Außenränder der Querwände überstehenden Teile der Deckenwand und der Bodenwand elastisch verformbar sind und daß die unmittelbar auf den Querwänden aufliegenden Teile der Deckenwand und Bodenwand starr sind, dem Stopfen in Richtung seiner Höhe H eine Elastizität verleihen, die eine Anpassung der Längsränder der Bodenwand und Deckenwand des Stopfens an den Innenquerschnitt der Sprosse ermöglicht und damit einerseits ein Ausbeulen der Sprosse im Verbindungsbereich vollständig verhindert und andererseits einen federnden Einbausitz des Stopfens in der Sprosse sicherstellen. Dabei läßt sich diese Anpassung und damit die gewünschte Elastizität von Deckenwand und Bodenwand an deren Längsrändern zeckmäßigerweise dadurch fördern, daß sich die Dicke der Deckenwand und der Bodenwand zu ihren parallelen Rändern hin verringert.This dimensioning of the width of the transverse walls in relation to the width of the stopper, in particular in connection with the special design, makes it possible for the parts of the ceiling wall and the bottom wall which protrude beyond the lateral outer edges of the transverse walls to be elastically deformed and for those which lie directly on the transverse walls Parts of the top wall and bottom wall are rigid, give the stopper an elasticity in the direction of its height H, which enables the longitudinal edges of the bottom wall and top wall of the stopper to be adapted to the inner cross-section of the rung and thus on the one hand completely prevents buckling of the rung in the connection area and on the other hand prevents one Ensure that the plug is resilient in the rung. This adaptation and thus the desired elasticity of the top wall and bottom wall at the longitudinal edges can be favorably promoted by reducing the thickness of the top wall and the bottom wall towards their parallel edges.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Further advantageous refinements are characterized in the subclaims.

The invention is explained in more detail below by way of example using the embodiment shown in the drawing. The drawing shows:

Fig. 2
a longitudinal sectional side view of the plug of Fig. 1 and
Fig. 3
2 shows a cross-sectional view of the plug from FIG. 1 along the line AA in FIG. 1.

Der in den Fig. 1 bis 3 dargestellte Abstandshalterstopfen 1 besteht aus Kunststoff und ist bezüglich seines Umrisses an den Innenquerschnitt der Fenstersprosse angepaßt, in der er verwendet werden soll. Zu diesem Zweck wird der Stopfen in das betreffende Sprossenende eingesteckt und an dem Rahmenprofilkörper der Isolierglasscheibe durch Anschießen befestigt, wodurch die Sprosse an diesem Profilkörper, also dem Abstandsprofil der Scheibe, festgelegt wird.The spacer plug 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is made of plastic and is adapted in terms of its outline to the inner cross section of the window rung in which it is to be used. For this purpose, the stopper is inserted into the respective rung end and fastened to the frame profile body of the insulating glass pane by means of shooting, whereby the rung is fixed to this profile body, that is to say the spacing profile of the pane.

Hierzu weist der Stopfen 1 an seinem hinteren Ende 7 einen Stirnflansch 13 auf, der im in das Sprossenende eingesteckten Zustand des Stopfens einerseits auf der Sprossenstirnseite und andererseits auf der dieser gegenüberliegenden Rahmenprofilkörperoberfläche aufliegt. Der Stirnflansch ist mit seitlichen Aussparungen 9, 10 versehen, die ihrer Form nach an den in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellten Sprossenprofilquerschritt angepaßt sind.For this purpose, the stopper 1 has at its rear end 7 an end flange 13 which, when the stopper is inserted into the end of the rung, rests on the one hand on the end face of the rung and on the other hand on the frame profile body surface opposite this. The end flange is provided with lateral recesses 9, 10, which are adapted in shape to the cross section of the rung profile, not shown in the drawing.

Die Stopfenoberfläche ist mit wabenartigen Vertiefungen 21 versehen, die durch sich quer zur mit dem Pfeil C angedeuteten Einsteckrichtung des Stopfens erstreckende parallele Zwischenwände 6 voneinander getrennt sind, deren quer zur Stopfenlängsrichtung und damit Einsteckrichtung gemessene Breite B wesentlich kleiner ist als die über die beiden parallelen äußeren Randkanten 4, 5 gemessene Breite D des Stopfens. Bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel beträgt die Breite B der Zwischenwände 6 etwa ein Drittel der Stopfenbreite D, was bedeutet, daß die parallel zueinander verlaufende Bodenwand 2 und Deckwand 3 des Stopfens, die durch die äußeren Randkanten 4, 5 begrenzt werden, von den Zwischenwänden 6 im Bereich ihrer über die seitlichen Außenränder 15, 16 der Zwischenwände überstehenden Teile 17, 18 nicht abgestützt und deshalb elastisch verformbar sind, während die unmittelbar auf den Zwischenwänden 6 aufliegenden Teile 19, 20 der Deckenwand 2 und Bodenwand 3 abgestützt und deshalb starr sind.The stopper surface is provided with honeycomb-like recesses 21, which are separated from one another by parallel intermediate walls 6 extending transversely to the direction of insertion of the stopper indicated by arrow C, the width B of which, measured transversely to the longitudinal direction of the stopper and thus the direction of insertion, is substantially smaller than that of the two parallel outer ones Edge edges 4, 5 measured width D of the plug. In the illustrated embodiment, the width B of the partitions 6 is about one third of the plug width D, which means that the parallel bottom wall 2 and top wall 3 of the plug, which are delimited by the outer edge edges 4, 5, of the partitions 6 in Area of their parts 17, 18 projecting beyond the lateral outer edges 15, 16 of the intermediate walls are not supported and therefore elastically deformable, while the parts 19, 20 of the top wall 2 and bottom wall 3 lying directly on the intermediate walls 6 are supported and therefore rigid.

Die Abstützung der Deckwand 2 und Bodenwand 3 wird durch die sich in Richtung der Stopfenlängsachse erstreckende Längswand 14 noch unterstützt, deren beidseitige Oberflächen den Boden der Waben 21 bilden und die mit den Zwischenwänden 6 verbunden ist. Dabei ist die Anordnung so getroffen, daß die Längswand in der Symmetrieebene des Stopfens liegt und die Zwischenwände 6 bezüglich ihrer Breite B symmetrisch zur Längswand ausgebildet sind, wobei die Zwischenwände einen gleichen Abstand E voneinander aufweisen.The support of the top wall 2 and bottom wall 3 is further supported by the longitudinal wall 14 extending in the direction of the plug longitudinal axis, the surfaces of which on both sides form the bottom of the honeycomb 21 and which is connected to the intermediate walls 6. The arrangement is such that the longitudinal wall lies in the plane of symmetry of the plug and the intermediate walls 6 are formed symmetrically with respect to their width B to the longitudinal wall, the intermediate walls being at the same distance E from one another.

Das elastische Verhalten der Deckenwand 2 und Bodenwand 3 im Bereich ihrer über die Zwischenwände 6 überstehenden Teile 17, 18 wird noch dadurch gesteigert, daß, wie aus Fig. 3 ersichtlich, sich die Dicke der Deckenwand 2 und der Bodenwand 3 zu ihren parallelen Rändern 11, 12 verringert.The elastic behavior of the top wall 2 and bottom wall 3 in the region of their parts 17, 18 projecting beyond the intermediate walls 6 is further increased by the fact that, as can be seen from FIG. 3, the thickness of the top wall 2 and the bottom wall 3 increases relative to their parallel edges 11 , 12 reduced.

Das vordere Ende 8 des Stopfens 1 ist von einer Zwischenwand 6 abgeschlossen und konisch zugespitzt ausgebildet, während das hintere Stopfenende 7, das den Stirnflansch 13 aufweist, Teil der letzten Zwischenwand 6 ist.The front end 8 of the stopper 1 is closed off by an intermediate wall 6 and tapered, while the rear stopper end 7, which has the end flange 13, is part of the last intermediate wall 6.

Die in Stopfenlängsrichtung und damit in Einsteckrichtung C gemessene Länge L der Zwischenwände 6 ist üblicherweise kleiner als der Abstand E der Zwischenwände voneinander und damit deren Länge, und die Stopfenhöhe H ist so bemessen, daß sie dem Profilhöhenquerschnitt der Sprosse entspricht.The length L of the intermediate walls 6 measured in the longitudinal direction of the stopper and thus in the insertion direction C is usually smaller than the distance E of the intermediate walls from one another and thus their length, and the stopper height H is dimensioned such that it corresponds to the profile height cross section of the rung.
