Abstract

A profiled seal made of elastic material for window profiles may be used in an advantageous manner, in particular at the weather side, if the sealing elements (12, 13) associated to the top side of the base body (10) of the profiled seal are provided with a decorative coating (33) made of a UV-resistant, non-cellular material. This decorative coating (33) makes it possible to give to the profiled seal a special appearance or a special design, and in addition allows very flexible materials to be used, in particular when the sealing elements (12, 13) are made of different materials, since the latter can be covered by the decorative coating (33).

Description

The invention relates to a sealing profile made of elasti chemical material for sealing the window panes against the window profiles made of plastic or metal, in particular on the weather side with a profile body, an attached formed anchoring wedge and on top of the profile molded sealing elements

Such sealing profiles are used in window construction used to replace the silicone or Putty seals the window panes once necessary to give the seat and the effective sealing. Today thermal insulation is of additional importance to, especially for window professionals made of metal len. The gasket made of elastic material files are known for example from EP-B-0 247 533. Here the seal on the weather side consists of one Profile body made of corresponding harder plastic, the Anchoring wedge formed on the profile side and that of two Sealing elements existing sealing area on the top of the Profile body, d. H. so on the window pane facing side. By arranging two Sealing elements ensure an optimal seal, with a special design of the outer seal continuous laying also possible in the corner area becomes. However, these sealing elements exist and therefore also the entire sealing profile mostly from a gray or even black material, so that it is particularly from the interior The window is always clear and optically as well are disruptively recognizable. To give them the necessary elasticity to give, however, it is necessary to fill soot or similar. to use, which in turn is the corresponding Coloring results. Would you use other material, would de the duration required for long-term use can not be guaranteed and thus  not the possibility of going through this material in the corner area going to bring in. On the other hand, such profiles even if they are made of different hard materials Regarding the sealing elements, penetration both in the intermediate area between the window pane and the profile prevent it even between the sealing elements. Because of this, only a certain material, for example with closed pores or with the same material throughout. Such but is particularly problematic in the corner area that then, in turn, the older technology is used which must be vulcanized or vulcanized on in the corner areas profiles are used. These vulcanization points or But glue spots bring with it uncertainty, so that after Possibility to work with continuous profiles.

The invention is therefore based on the object Form sealing bead so that a simple and safe Ver creation with optimal optical and functional adaptation the frame is possible.

The object is achieved according to the invention in that the sealing elements in whole or in part with a decor Layering are provided, which are made of a non-cellular material al exists and is UV-resistant.

This special design of the sealing profile enables First of all, the continued use of the advantageous processing elastic material without it Impair properties. So it is still possible if the sealing profile is designed accordingly this throughout in the corner area and on other Pro to lay blind spots continuously. In addition, one such decorative coating also inexpensive because only one there is little material requirement and because of that the possibility is given building on the usual seal Profile of the sealing exactly adapted to the application  to use profiles without the whole Sealing profile an appropriate color scheme or an ent must have a speaking appearance. It is coated in white substantial for decorative reasons, although the same ensures the effectiveness of the sealing profile at an early stage have to be. Since it's a non-cellular material, is excluded that through the decorative coating Moisture penetrates and then possibly this Coating peels off. UV resistance guarantees long life times without any change, so that a trained Sealing profile for the problematic area of application Particularly suitable on the weather side.

After an expedient training of the invention provided that the decorative coating of a thin skin vulcanized plastic film is formed. Such Film can be processed particularly well and at the same time also so that it fully covers the surface in the intended area constantly and safely covers. About the application process is ensured that a permanent connection between the Decorative coating and the actual sealing element achieved becomes. The plastic film or the decorative coating can tion are applied so that they fully the sealing elements constantly wrapped or the corresponding parts of the Pro fil basic body. This gives the opportunity, too open-pored or otherwise trained materials for the Bring sealing elements to use, which in turn have a particularly favorable processing property. This makes processing in problem areas like in the Corners and at T-joints u. much easier. Since the Decorative coating consists of a non-cellular material, can not penetrate moisture and this is leg flow of the internal material is not to be feared. The decorative coating therefore fulfills a double function, since it is not only for optical reasons, but also for securing the sealing element material is used.  

Training is to be regarded as a certain minimum requirement in which the decorative coating by the Window pane covering visible surfaces of the sealing elements is arranged, as this ensures that all view areas get the color or the training that it should have according to the predetermination. For example, it is given the opportunity for a white coated window sterprofil take a sealing profile that is in color exactly matches or has a certain effect calls, who can only be reached by appropriate coloring is.

Another embodiment of the invention provides that the the decorative coating forming colored plastic film and / or is transparent. This special requirement enables it is easy to produce different effects when this is desired for the visual impression. For those from on the other hand, it is sufficient to have a covering and securing effect if quite simply a thin-skinned decorative coating in non-zell structure is used. Also a transparent training dung can have a special optical effect, ins especially when an open-pored material for the Sealing elements or one of the sealing elements is used.

The invention can be implemented particularly well if the sealing elements from a sealing lip made of harder and a large-volume sealing bead made of softer, foamy Material are formed, with a V-shaped spread with respect to the center line of the profile body assigned anchoring wedge to represent and shaped at least the free areas of the sealing bead from the decor stratification covered or covered. This training is particularly suitable because of the decorative coating also with the special design of the sealing lip and sealing bead deformation is fully retained and thus preserving the overall impression given by the sealing element. Regardless of how far the sealing lip and sealing bead extend  Removing or deforming each other is always a similar or in particular optically the same Guaranteed surface and thus the desired optimal Overall impression. The cover by De basket coating here, as already mentioned, more open-pored Foam can be used for the large-volume sealing bead so that editing is also possible in the corner areas is Lich without deforming the white in particular cheren part of the sealing element a different impression can be called. In particular, however, is also the laying technology in the corners and in other problem areas the decorative coating in no way hindered.

While from EP-B-0 247 533 the use of hardness rem and less hard material for sealing lip and sealing bead is known, the invention provides that the large volume have a sealing bead from a 30 ° or less shore consists of the foam and with the profile body and Connected sealing lip and covered by the decorative coating is. With the decor coating, this ultimately becomes the Possibility given, even softer material than with for example, to use foam rubber in this way laying in corner areas and other problem areas even easier. This be made of very soft foam standing sealing bead is optimally suitable to deform, to push into the problem areas and still effectively seal, the through the foam or the Sealing bead caused spring action on the seal effect of the sealing lip has a very advantageous effect. Advantageous is further that the higher proportion of air in the For example, foam achieves better thermal insulation bar, so that especially in the field of metal aluminum windows also achieve better thermal insulation can be. The thermal insulation can specifically improve this be replaced by appropriate material or the Sealing lip or the profile body, the profiles in the also covers the visible area in this way  To improve thermal insulation effect.

To the processing of the sealing elements and in particular especially the sealing bead not to hinder or even possibly favor, it is advantageous if the decorative coating a similar, preferably the same Shore hardness as that Sealing elements, preferably having the sealing bead. Because of vulcanization is an intimate connection between ensured both elements without the risk of that the effect of the sealing elements is worse.

The spring action mentioned earlier, which the Provides sealing bead for the sealing lip, can according to the invention favored that the sealing bead with your much softer material up to the base of the sealing lip and designed to reach the foot area of the anchoring wedge is. This is when the window is placed or pressed on disc on the sealing elements the sealing lip shifted where in their movement over which are supported on the sealing bead the foot is cushioned. At the same time, the foot deforms the sealing bead, so that this in turn is advantageous evenly applied to the window pane and the total seals effectively.

In the case of aluminum windows in particular, thermal insulation improved by a specially designed sealing profile will. This is especially the case if the profile basic body with a solid underneath the sealing lip and equipped with a far-reaching approach the decorative coating also partially or completely covered. This allows the metal surface of the frame are more or less covered, so that here by the special type and the material of the sealing profile additional thermal insulation is achieved. The decor Layering leads to an additional seal in the especially when it reaches the end of the approach is also involved. The decorative coating can also be used  help to better design existing or remaining gaps fill or seen the same across the entire surface to ensure a moderate effect on the adjacent areas because seen over the entire area, the same material pre give is. Again, the coloring does not come special meaning, but rather that for the decor Layering used material, which is especially a has non-cellular structure.

The sealing profiles described in detail are before especially for use in the area of plastic and metal windows provided. You can with appropriate adjustment but can also be used in the area of wooden windows and this is particularly the case if the anchoring wedge is in two parts is formed, with a wedge part at the front to the free end of the profile body carrying the sealing bead and the other right wedge part at the opposite end of the profile body as a wedge that can be inserted into a groove in the wooden frame molded or the entire contact surface of the profile basic body is assigned in the form of an adhesive layer, wherein the entire visible area, at least that of the sealing bead with a decorative coating, preferably in a wooden handle adds. A sealing profile designed in this way can be expensive Advantageously replace silicone or other plastics, whereby actually only an additional groove is provided in the wooden profile must be around the two-part anchoring wedge in the end richly effective to connect with the wooden frame. Is not this if the case or it is a retrofit, it is Adhesive layer especially as a replacement for this second wedge part advantageous and enables such a sealing profile can also be used effectively in this processing area. It is also conceivable that both a groove in the wooden window in front seen as well as the described fixation on the Kle coated. Here is the sealing bead and possibly also the sealing lip covered by the decorative coating, which is more appropriate example, the same grain, coloring or the like. of the wooden frame, so as to adapt  enable. It is also conceivable, of course, here a decor to use a coating that specifically changes pretends to be the total we in this way kung such a window to optically advantageous rivers. Here, too, of particular importance Decorative coating regarding the optical and at the same time also the effect of securing materials. Last one res especially if the decorative coating the sealing elements te largely covers or envelops, so that it becomes a loading influence from the weather conditions does not come can.

The invention is characterized in particular by that a sealing profile is created that is simple and si can be relocated, which is highly functional especially in the problem areas of the corner and the T-An has conclusions and at the same time an optical one Adaptation of the sealing profile to any circumstances possible without huge amounts of sealing profile must be kept of a special kind. Rather, it will Sealing profile of whatever training in the decision , especially the visible areas with the decorative coating tion provided, as described, an optical and at the same time has a functional effect. The functional Effect makes it possible to increase the insulating effect of mate rialien to be used by the protection protected from the weather by the decorative coating and can be protected in the long term. Seen overall distinguished by the sealing profile according to the invention, that the same basic profile for all areas of application for ver is that only for the respective application, if necessary a special additional processing, d. H. just applying the decorative coating required. With this, the manufacturers Costs influenced only marginally, but at the same time the functionality of the sealing profiles is essential increases.

Further details and advantages of the invention counter stand out from the following description of the associated drawing, in the preferred embodiments with the necessary details and parts Darge represents are. Show it:

Fig. 1, a sealing profile with a V-shaped basic education and extended profile base,

Fig. 3 is a sealing profile in section for use on wooden windows and

Fig. 4 shows another embodiment of a sealing profile with a sealing bead and sealing lip made of different materials.

The sealing profile shown in FIG. 1 is a special version as far as this is essentially intended for aluminum windows. Regardless of this special area of application, a corresponding sealing profile 1 secures the slot between the window pane 2 and the frame 3 , with details being omitted here.

The sealing profile 1 consists of the basic profile body 4 , the anchoring wedge 6 molded onto the underside 5 and the sealing elements 8 , 9 assigned to the upper side 7 . The thread 10 has only stability tasks and facilitates the assembly of such a sealing profile.

The sealing element 9 is provided with a support wedge 11 which bears against the window pane 2 , so that the entire sealing profile 1 can be supported on the frame 3 or the aluminum frame part 12 .

The sealing profile shown in Fig. 1 has an extended extension 13 in order to insulate the aluminum frame part 12 as inexpensively as possible. The presentation of details has also been omitted here.

The sealing profile 1 is covered on the side assigned to the window pane 2 by a decorative coating 15 . In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, this decorative coating goes around the sealing bead 16 made of softer material up to the sealing lip 17 and even up to the shoulder 13 . This decorative coating 15 is of optical importance, since the entire side facing the viewer can be given a specific and uniform appearance, for example adapted to the frame 3 used . At the same time, however, there is also the possibility of using a softer material here, for example the sealing bead 16 , which does not necessarily have to be resistant to weather conditions as such. It gets the necessary durability from the decorative coating 15 , which is not cellular and is also UV-resistant.

The softer material is shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and also Fig. 3 to Hérange close to the foot 22 of the sealing lip 17 leads. The designation of the interface at 18 clearly shows that this course can also be selected so that the effect of the foot 22 and on the other hand of the anchoring wedge 6 can be guaranteed or influenced. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the foot 22 is effectively cushioned when the sealing lip 17 is pressed down, the anchoring wedge 6 at the same time having a high level of stability because the foot region 23 is sufficiently provided here.

Both in Fig. 1 and Figs. 2 and 3 are sealing bead and sealing lip designed so that it enables and specify a V-like spread to the center line 20 of the anchoring wedge 6 .

With 19 the incision is designated, which is to specify the separating surface when laying in the corner area, which facilitates laying in these problem areas. The same applies in principle to T-joints u. Areas.

Fig. 3 shows a special embodiment in that such a sealing profile 1 is provided for use on wooden frames. Therefore, another training of the anchoring wedge 6 has been used here, which is in two parts. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, a stepped wedge part 25 is provided on the side of the profile base body 4 assigned to the sealing bead 16 , while the remaining contact surface 29 of the profile base body 4 is provided with an adhesive layer 30 . This adhesive layer 30 acts as a second part of the wedge or anchoring wedge, where a second wedge can also be provided at the end region of the profile base body 4 if the wooden windows or frames also have a correspondingly adapted groove or if these are introduced into the frame can be. Ultimately, the same advantageous effect can be achieved via the adhesive layer 30 . Here, this second wedge part is provided with the reference numeral 28 in order to clarify that such a wedge part projecting downwards and pressing into a groove can be arranged here if necessary.

In the embodiment according to FIG. 3, the visible surface is in turn also covered by the sealing bead 16 , the decorative coating 15 also being able to be carried out via the cover strip 27 down to the cavity 26 if this is expedient for optical reasons.

In the embodiment according to FIG. 4, the sealing lip 17 and the sealing bead 16 are clearly separated from one another, the sealing lip 17 moving in the direction of the sealing bead 16 with a corresponding load through the window pane 2 ( not shown here ) . The sealing bead 16 as a whole is quasi molded onto the basic profile body 4 and can neither influence or cushion the movement of the sealing lip 17 nor any other part. Also in the embodiment according to FIG. 4, the entire surface of the sealing bead 16 and the sealing lip 17 is covered by a decorative laminate 15. The decorative coating 15 is still pulled around the sealing lip 17 in order to cover or cover the area which is visible even when the sealing lip 17 is moved or bent away with the decorative coating 15 .

All mentioned features, including those of the drawings alone to be extracted, alone and in combination, are invented considered essential.
