Abstract

A metallic framework, in particular for a metal-glass building façade or the like, has vertical upright members (1) and horizontal locking elements (2). Both upright members (1) and locking elements (2) have T-shaped cross-sections. The locking elements (2) have nose-shaped projections (9) designed in such a way that the end areas of the locking elements (2) lie flush everywhere with the upright members (1). The upright members (1) and the locking elements (2) may be joined by pins or screws (10, 11, 12) which are not or hardly visible from the front side of the framework. An extremely stable, light to mount and aesthetically neat connection between the locking elements (2) and the upright members (1) of the metallic framework is thus obtained.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Metallgerüst, insbesondere für eine Metall-Glas-Gebäudefassade oder dergleichen.The invention relates to a metal frame, in particular for a metal-glass building facade or the like.

Zunehmend werden Gebäudefassaden als Metall-Glas-Konstruktionen ausgebildet. Diese Metall-Glas-Fassaden weisen als Grundkonstruktion ein Metallgerüst auf, in welches die einzelnen Fassadenelemente, wie Glasfenster und die Bereiche zwischen diesen ausfüllenden Metall- oder Kunststoffelemente eingesetzt werden. Darüber hinaus können auch Sonnenkollektoren in ein solches Metallgerüst eingesetzt werden.Building facades are increasingly being constructed as metal-glass structures. As a basic construction, these metal-glass facades have a metal frame in which the individual facade elements, such as glass windows and the areas between these filling metal or plastic elements, are inserted. In addition, solar collectors can also be used in such a metal frame.

Derartige Metallgerüstkonstruktionen sind in vielfältiger Weise bekannt. Ein solches Metallgerüst besteht in der Regel aus vertikal verlaufenden Pfostenelementen und horizontal verlaufenden Riegelelementen, welche die Querverstrebung bilden. In der Regel findet Stahl als Werkstoff Verwendung.Such metal framework constructions are known in many ways. Such a metal frame usually consists of vertically extending post elements and horizontally extending locking elements which form the cross strut. As a rule, steel is used as a material.

Metallgerüste entsprechen dem Stand der Technik, weisen jedoch den Nachteil auf, daß die Verbindung zwischen den Pfostenelementen und den Riegelelementen von außen sichtbar ist und in diesem Bereich kein ästhetisch ansprechendes Aussehen erreicht wird. Darüber hinaus sind die Verbindungen zwischen den Pfostenelementen und den Riegelelementen entweder einem hohen Montageaufwand unterworfen oder zeichnen sich nicht durch eine hohe Stabilität aus.Metal frameworks correspond to the prior art, but have the disadvantage that the connection between the post elements and the locking elements is visible from the outside and no aesthetically pleasing appearance is achieved in this area. In addition, the connections between the post elements and the locking elements are either subject to high assembly costs or are not distinguished by high stability.

Aus US-A-3,176,806 ist ein Metallgerüst mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffes des Anspruches 1 bekannt. Die Verbindung der Riegelelemente mit den Pfostenelementen erfolgt dabei über Schrauben, die Öffnungen in den Längsschenkeln des T-Querschnittprofils der Pfostenelemente durchsetzen und in die entsprechenden Stirnseiten der Längsschenkel der T-Querschnittsprofils der Pfostenelemente eingreifen. Zwar sind dadurch keine Verbindungselemente von der Betrachtungsseite (mit Blick auf die Querschenkel der T-Querschnittsprofile) erkennbar, jedoch können nur Anordnungen aus zwei Pfostenelementen mit dazwischen befindlichen Riegelelementen geschaffen werden. Bei Aneinanderreihung, wie sie insbesondere für Gebäudefassaden zwingend erforderlich ist, müssen daher zwei Pfostenelemente stets miteinander verbunden werden, was zweifellos aufwendig ist und kein ästhetisch ansprechendes Aussehen ermöglicht.From US-A-3,176,806 a metal frame with the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known. The locking elements are connected to the post elements by means of screws which penetrate openings in the longitudinal legs of the T cross-sectional profile of the post elements and engage in the corresponding end faces of the longitudinal legs of the T cross-sectional profile of the post elements. Although no connecting elements can be seen from the viewing side (with a view of the cross legs of the T cross-sectional profiles), only arrangements of two post elements with locking elements located in between can be created. When stringing together, as is absolutely necessary for building facades, two post elements must always be connected to each other what is undoubtedly complex and does not allow an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Andere bekannte Metallgerüste benötigen zusätzliche Verriegelungselemente und daher zusätzlichen Montageaufwand (vgl. EP-A-0 375 089, DE-U-86 037 90).Other known metal structures require additional locking elements and therefore additional assembly effort (cf. EP-A-0 375 089, DE-U-86 037 90).

Ausgehend hiervon ist es daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Metallgerüst der aus der US-3,176,806 bekannten Art so weiterzubilden, daß die Verbindung zwischen den Pfostenelementen und den Riegelelementen von der Betrachtungsseite her gesehen unscheinbar ist und zudem eine schnelle Montage und eine stabile Verbindung ermöglicht wird.Proceeding from this, it is therefore an object of the invention to develop a metal frame of the type known from US Pat. No. 3,176,806 in such a way that the connection between the post elements and the locking elements is inconspicuous when viewed from the viewing side and, moreover, quick assembly and a stable connection is made possible.

Die Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst.The object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1.

Dabei wird dies unter der Verwendung der bekannten Pfosten- und Riegelelemente mit dem wesentlichen T-förmigen Querschnittsprofilen erreicht, bei denen die Riegelelemente durch einen nasenförmigen Fortsatz in ihren Endbereichen überall bündig an dem jeweiligen Pfostenelementen anliegen. In dem hierdurch gebildeten verdeckten Überlappungsbereich wird eine von der Betrachtungsseite nicht bzw. kaum sichtbare Verbindung erzielt. Die Festigkeit und die Biegesteifigkeit der Pfostenelemente als auch der Riegelelemente ist durch die Verwendung der T-förmigen Querschnittsprofile wesentlich erhöht, wobei die durch die Erfindung erzielte Verbindung außerordentlich stabil ist. Die Stiftelemente sind dabei von außen entweder nicht sichtbar oder können, falls sie von außen eingeschoben werden, zumindest nach einer entsprechenden Nachbehandlung, wie z. B. Schleifen, bündig mit der Stirnfläche (der Betrachtungsseite) der Pfosten- bzw. Riegelelemente abschließen. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, daß zumindest eines der Stiftelemente im Bereich des nasenförmigen Fortsatzes des Riegelelementes und zumindest ein weiteres Stiftelement außerhalb dieses Bereiches angeordnet ist. Die Stabilität wird dadurch erhöht, daß eine zueinander senkrechte Anordnung zumindest einiger der Stiftelemente vorgesehen ist. So ist zumindest ein im Bereich des nasenförmigen Fortsatzes angeordnetes Stiftelement senkrecht zu mindestens einem Stiftelement im Bereich Außerhalb des nasenförmigen Fortsatzes angeordnet, wodurch ein Lösen der Verbindung weitgehend verhindert wird.This is achieved using the known mullion and transom elements with the essential T-shaped cross-sectional profiles, in which the transom elements are flush with the respective post elements everywhere in their end regions by means of a nose-shaped extension. In the concealed overlap region formed in this way, a connection that is not or hardly visible from the viewing side is achieved. The strength and the bending stiffness of the post elements as well as the locking elements is significantly increased by the use of the T-shaped cross-sectional profiles, the connection achieved by the invention being extremely stable. The pin elements are either not visible from the outside or, if they are inserted from the outside, at least after a corresponding after-treatment, such as. B. grinding, flush with the end face (the viewing side) of the mullion or transom elements. This is achieved in that at least one of the pin elements is arranged in the area of the nose-shaped extension of the locking element and at least one further pin element outside of this area. The stability is increased in that a mutually perpendicular arrangement of at least some of the pin elements is provided. At least one pin element arranged in the area of the nose-shaped extension is arranged perpendicular to at least one pin element in the area outside the nose-shaped extension, thereby largely preventing the connection from being released.

Die Erfindung wird durch die Merkmale der Unteransprüche weitergebildet.The invention is further developed by the features of the subclaims.

Nach den Ansprüchen 2 bis 4 können die Querschnittsprofile der Riegelelemente und/oder der Pfostenelemente jeweils durch zwei Flachelemente gebildet sein, wobei diese Flachelemente z. B. mittels Schweißens oder Verschrauben fest miteinander verbunden sind. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, die T-förmigen Querschnittsprofile einstückig, z. B. mittels eines Gieß- oder Ziehverfahrens zu fertigen. Eines der Flachelemente des Riegelelementes kann den mit den T-förmigen Pfostenelementen überlappenden nasenförmigen Fortsatz bilden.According to claims 2 to 4, the cross-sectional profiles of the locking elements and / or the post elements can each be formed by two flat elements, these flat elements, for. B. are firmly connected by welding or screwing. However, it is also possible to integrally form the T-shaped cross-sectional profiles, e.g. B. by means of a casting or drawing process. One of the flat elements of the locking element can form the nose-shaped extension overlapping with the T-shaped post elements.

Ferner kann es vorteilhaft sein, die Riegelelemente und die Pfostenelemente entsprechend den Ansprüchen 4 und 5 fest, aber lösbar miteinander zu verbinden.Furthermore, it can be advantageous to connect the locking elements and the post elements according to claims 4 and 5 firmly but releasably.

Die Erfindung wird anhand der in der Zeichnung in den Figuren 2 bis 4 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert, es zeigen:

Figur 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Darstellung des Verbindungsbereiches zwischen einem Pfostenelement 1 und einem Riegelelement 2 des Metallgerüstes. Während das Pfostenelement 1 über die gesamte Fassade hinweg durchlaufend ausgebildet ist, verbinden die Riegelelemente 2 jeweils zwei benachbarte Pfostenelemente 1. Es ist jedoch auch möglich die Riegelelemente 2 durchlaufend auszubilden und die Pfostenelemente 1 im Bereich der Riegelelemente 2 zu unterbrechen.Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the connection area between a post element 1 and a locking element 2 of the metal frame. While the post element 1 is designed to run continuously across the entire facade, the locking elements 2 each connect two adjacent post elements 1. However, it is also possible to design the locking elements 2 continuously and to interrupt the post elements 1 in the area of the locking elements 2.

Der mit dem Bezugszeichen 3 versehene Pfeil kennzeichnet die Blickrichtung auf die nach außen gerichtete Stirnfläche des Metallgerüstes. Sowohl die Pfostenelemente 1 als auch die Riegelelemente 2 weisen ein T-förmiges Querschnittsprofil auf, so daß auf der der Blickrichtung 3 abgewandten Seite des Metallgerüstes ein umlaufender Rahmen entsteht, in welches die Fassadenelemente, wie Fenster oder Verkleidungselemente und dgl., eingesetzt werden können. Bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Pfostenelemente 1 und die Riegelelemente 2 jeweils aus zwei Flachelementen 4 und 5 bzw. 6 und 7 ausgebildet. Die Flachelemente können aus Flachstahl ausgebildet und miteinander verschweißt oder verschraubt sein. Im Verbindungsbereich 8 der Pfostenelemente 1 und der Riegelelemente 2 weisen die Riegelelemente 2 einen nasenförmigen Fortsatz 9 auf. Dieser nasenförmige Fortsatz 9 kann in einfacher Weise dadurch entstehen, daß die Flachelemente 4 und 5 unterschiedlich lang sind. Der nasenförmige Fortsatz 9 ist derart bemessen, daß das Riegelelement 2 überall bündig an dem Pfostenelement 1 anliegt.The arrow provided with the reference number 3 indicates the direction of view of the outward-facing end face of the metal frame. Both the post elements 1 and the transom elements 2 have a T-shaped cross-sectional profile, so that on the side of the metal frame facing away from the viewing direction 3 a circumferential frame is formed in which the facade elements, such as windows or cladding elements and the like, can be used. In the illustrated embodiment, the post elements 1 and the locking elements 2 are each formed from two flat elements 4 and 5 or 6 and 7. The flat elements can be made of flat steel and welded or screwed together. In the connection area 8 of the post elements 1 and the locking elements 2, the locking elements 2 have a nose-shaped extension 9. This nose-shaped extension 9 can be created in a simple manner in that the flat elements 4 and 5 are of different lengths. Of the nose-shaped extension 9 is dimensioned such that the locking element 2 is flush with the post element 1 everywhere.

Figur 2 zeigt ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Verbindung zwischen den Riegelelementen und den Pfostenelementen 1. Die Verbindung wird mittels der Stiftelemente 10, 11 und 12 vorgenommen. Die Riegelelemente bzw. die Pfostenelemente weisen entsprechende Bohrungen 13 bis 15 bzw. 16 bis 18 auf. Bei der Montage werden zunächst die Stiftelemente 16 und 11 in die Bohrungen 13 und 14 des Riegelelementes eingeschlagen. Nachfolgend wird das Riegelelement 2 an dem Pfostenelement 1 montiert, indem die Stifte 10 und 11 in die Bohrungen 16 und 17 eingeführt werden. Schließlich wird das Stiftelement 12 in die Bohrungen 18 des Pfostenelementes und 15 des Riegelelementes eingeführt. Insbesondere das Stiftelement 12 kann auch als Schraube ausgebildet sein, um eine leicht lösbare Verbindung zwischen den Pfostenelementen und den Riegelelementen zu erreichen. Aufgrund der senkrechten Stellung des Stiftelementes 12 zur Montagerichtung des Riegelelementes ist das Lösen des Riegelelementes blockiert und gleichzeitig wird die Stabilität der Verbindungskonstruktion erhöht.Figure 2 shows an embodiment of the connection between the locking elements and the post elements 1. The connection is made by means of the pin elements 10, 11 and 12. The locking elements or the post elements have corresponding bores 13 to 15 or 16 to 18. During assembly, the pin elements 16 and 11 are first hammered into the bores 13 and 14 of the locking element. Subsequently, the locking element 2 is mounted on the post element 1 by inserting the pins 10 and 11 into the bores 16 and 17. Finally, the pin element 12 is inserted into the bores 18 of the post element and 15 of the locking element. In particular, the pin element 12 can also be designed as a screw in order to achieve an easily detachable connection between the post elements and the locking elements. Due to the vertical position of the pin element 12 to the mounting direction of the locking element, the release of the locking element is blocked and at the same time the stability of the connecting structure is increased.

Lediglich das Bohrloch 18 ist auf der Stirnseite des Metallgerüstes angeordnet. Dieses wird jedoch durch das Stiftelement 12 verschlossen. Schließt das Stiftelement 12 z. B. aufgrund einer Nachbehandlung (z. B. Schleifen) mit dem Bohrloch 18 bündig ab, wirken sowohl das Bohrloch 18 als auch das Stiftelement für den Betrachter unscheinbar.Only the borehole 18 is arranged on the end face of the metal frame. However, this is closed by the pin element 12. Closes the pin element 12 z. B. due to a post-treatment (z. B. grinding) from the borehole 18, both the borehole 18 and the pin element appear inconspicuous to the viewer.

Figur 3 zeigt ein erstes Ausführungsbeispiel des Verbindungsbereiches zwischen den Riegelelementen 2 und dem Pfostenelement 1 sowohl in Aufsicht als auch im Aufriß. Die Flachelemente 4 und 5 der Riegelelemente 2 sind durch Schweißnähte 23 und 24 verbunden. In gleicher Weise sind die Flachelemente 6 und 7 des Pfostenelementes 1 durch Schweißnähte 25 und 26 verbunden. Die Verbindung zwischen den Pfostenelementen 1 und Riegelelementen 2 wird durch die in Montagerichtung der Riegelelemente 2 angeordneten Stiftelemente 10, 11 bzw. 20, 21 und die senkrecht zur Montagerichtung der Riegelelemente 2 angeordneten Stiftelemente 12 bzw. 22 vorgenommen, wie dies obenstehend beschrieben ist. Dieses Ausführungsbeispiel zeichnet sich durch eine besonders kurze Montagezeit bei der Herstellung einer Verbindung zwischen einem Riegelelement und einem Pfostenelement aus. Bei der Vielzahl der zu erstellenden Verbindungen zwischen Riegelelementen und Pfostenelementen bei der Montage einer großflächigen Gebäudefassade kommt dieser Montagezeit ein besonders Augenmerk zu.Figure 3 shows a first embodiment of the connection area between the locking elements 2 and the post element 1 both in supervision and in elevation. The flat elements 4 and 5 of the locking elements 2 are connected by weld seams 23 and 24. In the same way, the flat elements 6 and 7 of the post element 1 are connected by welds 25 and 26. The connection between the post elements 1 and locking elements 2 is made by the pin elements 10, 11 or 20, 21 arranged in the mounting direction of the locking elements 2 and the pin elements 12 or 22 arranged perpendicular to the mounting direction of the locking elements 2, as described above. This embodiment is characterized by a particularly short assembly time in the production of a connection between a locking element and a post element. Given the multitude of connections to be made between locking elements and Post elements when installing a large-scale building facade pay particular attention to this installation time.

Figur 4 zeigt ein zweites Ausführungsbeispiel der Verbindung zwischen einem Pfostenelement 1 und den Riegelelementen 2 sowohl in Aufsicht als auch im Aufriß. Die Verbindung zwischen den Flachelementen 6 und 7 des Pfostenelementes ist wie bei dem in Figur 3 gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel, mittels Schweißen entlang der Schweißnähte 25 und 26 realisiert. Die Verbindung zwischen den Flachelementen 4 und 5 der Riegelelemente 2 wird jedoch mittels einer Verschraubung durch die Schrauben 30 bis 35 gebildet. Dieses Ausführungsbeispiel weist den Vorteil der Lösbarkeit der Verbindung zwischen den Riegelelementen 2 und den Pfostenelementen 1 auf. Das gezeigte Ausführungsbeispiel kann jedoch auch in der Weise variiert werden, daß die Verbindung zwischen den Flachelementen 4 und 5 statt durch Verschrauben mittels Verschweißen hergestellt wird und nur die Stifte 12 und 22 des Ausführungsbeispiels nach Figur 3 durch die Schrauben 31 und 34 ersetzt werden. Selbstverständlich ist es auch denkbar, die Flachelemente 6 und 7 des Pfostenelementes 1 durch Verschrauben zu verbinden oder die Verbindung zwischen den Flachelementen in anderer Weise, z. B. durch Löten oder Vernieten, vorzunehmen.Figure 4 shows a second embodiment of the connection between a post element 1 and the locking elements 2, both in a top view and in elevation. The connection between the flat elements 6 and 7 of the post element is realized, as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, by means of welding along the weld seams 25 and 26. However, the connection between the flat elements 4 and 5 of the locking elements 2 is formed by means of a screw connection using the screws 30 to 35. This embodiment has the advantage of releasability of the connection between the locking elements 2 and the post elements 1. However, the exemplary embodiment shown can also be varied in such a way that the connection between the flat elements 4 and 5 is produced by welding instead of by screwing and only the pins 12 and 22 of the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 3 are replaced by the screws 31 and 34. Of course, it is also conceivable to connect the flat elements 6 and 7 of the post element 1 by screwing or the connection between the flat elements in another way, for. B. by soldering or riveting.

Darüber hinaus kann ein weiteres Stiftelement 36 vorgesehen sein, welches die Riegelelemente 2 durch das Pfostenelement 1 hindurch zusätzlich verbindet.In addition, a further pin element 36 can be provided, which additionally connects the locking elements 2 through the post element 1.
