Description

Description of the invention

[0001] The invention relates to the construction of a canopy with a holding assembly with a supporting profile, which can be attached to a building.

State of the art

[0002] Canopy structures are known, such as, for example, canopies with holding assemblies, in which cantilever supports are used to fasten plate construction parts, especially those made of glass, which are attached to the wall and on which the plate construction part rests.

[0003] Furthermore, it is known that the glass canopy is attached to the wall on one side by means of supporting profiles. In doing so, the plates are connected to the supporting profile by means of holes in the glass and screwing in the screws.

[0004] The glass canopy can also be clamped by clamping within the two supporting arms and can be joined, for example, by means of a permanently elastic adhesive.

[0005] DE 102011000991 A1 describes a wall bracket, which enables such a type of clamping, without a bracket, of a self-supporting plate structural element in a holder that is attached to the wall. At the same time, the holder is connected to the wall at least on one side and can be mounted on the wall independently of the self-supporting plate construction element.

[0006] For these purposes, the wall support has two flat bearing surfaces, with a gap formed between both bearing surfaces. The lower side of the plate structural element rests with its edge area on a flat surface, while the upper side of the plate structural element is acted upon by the opposite force, by means of which the structural element should be held. Thanks to this, the plate structural part is clamped in the support.

[0007] In AT 413413 B a "bearing system with one-sided clamping of one span of the Glas Meinhart type" is described. In doing so, an inherently stable intermediate panel for canopy structures is clamped in the system profiles and system elements using a continuous flat hard rubber profile to form a single-span system that is clamped on one side.

[0008] US 2007/175119 A1 describes a system for windows, or. awnings/weather shields for windows during storms. The system serves to cover the window and therefore has a top and bottom plate which are secured against impact, as well as a pivot assembly around which the top side of the top plate moves in the direction of the building, and a locking assembly to secure the top plate in the installed position and a series of bolts, nuts and fasteners to secure the storm plate window/awning system to the building and to mechanically operate the system.

[0009] As follows, in WO 2004/016877 A1 a floor covering board is described, which by means of a tongue and groove system can be connected to another covering board. In order to better connect the tongue and groove system, in addition, a line of glue is placed in the recess, either in the groove or on the tongue, so that both cladding panels are firmly connected to each other in the assembled state.

[0010] In JP 2006348708 A, a canopy is described, where one plate is shown that is clamped in profile with the upper and lower walls. The upper wall has a number of drilled holes for receiving screws, which should engage in one groove. In doing so, elastic elements are used, so that a pressure element can be placed on those elastic elements, whereby the elastic elements are pushed into that groove.

[0011] DE 20109739 U1 describes a point support for a perforated glass plate with two screws between which disks with a central slot are attached, whereby each screw rests on one disk, which are threaded through the opening of the glass plate with a nut that rests on the next disk. Wings with eyelets are placed on one or both sides of the point support, whereby the wings with eyelets are made on the head of the bolt or on the head of the nut.

[0012] DE 2601136 A1 describes a built-in assembly for a glass canopy. The canopy has a single panel of prestressed silicate glass without a frame, on which openings are made. As follows, the canopy has two supporting arms for the glass panel, which are to be fixed to the building, and are supplied with brackets, where on the supporting side the supporting arms are provided with threaded holes for fixing the glass panel.

[0013] The disadvantage of known assemblies for holding canopies is that openings must be made in the glass of the canopy that weaken the material and which do not ensure the stability of the connection, or that gluing must be performed to firmly connect the glass canopy and the support, whereby the gluing during assembly is complicated and is not resistant to the effects of weather over a long period of time.

[0014] The clamping itself is prone to movement and does not ensure a permanent reliable connection. If the plate structural element breaks, it will slide out and there will be a risk of falling out.

[0015] Therefore, the goal of the invention is to realize a structure of the canopy that enables simple assembly, as well as a reliable and safe connection of the structure of the canopy by mechanical fastening with the supporting profile and is cost-effective for production.

The essence of the invention

[0016] A canopy construction with a holding assembly according to claim 1 is proposed, wherein the canopy panels are particularly on one side mounted on the building by means of a supporting profile on one side.

[0017] For the safe connection of the supporting profile with the canopy plate, on each side of the canopy plate that faces the building, one notch is made on its side edges. Especially when performing the canopy panel as a double panel, or. laminated plates, these cuts can be made in both, or in several plates that are placed so that they lie on top of each other, or only in one of the two, or multiple sheets of laminated glass. The notch can be made in only one part of the plate. The notches are arranged in the canopy plate so that they are positioned inside the bearing surface of the bearing arm of the bearing profile.

[0018] The notches serve for the insertion of a suitable safety element in the shape of the letter L. This ensures a secure position of the canopy panels in the canopy construction.

[0019] At the same time, the canopy plate has at least two notches, that is, at least one on one side edge of the canopy plate, in the area of the supporting profile.

[0020] Here, for example, the supporting profile for fastening to the building itself is made of aluminum and in particular has two supporting arms. The angle between these two supporting arms in relation to the rear side, or. the wall of the building can be freely chosen.

[0021] At least one supporting arm of the supporting profile has at least one depression and/or at least one elevation. This serves to secure the position of the safety element.

[0022] Making recesses, or. elevation may be different.

[0023] The canopy board can be made as a laminated board and has at least two individual boards with at least one intermediate layer.

[0024] In doing so, the supporting profile is attached to the building, for example, by means of a screw connection. In the supporting profile, supporting elements are placed that are stable under pressure and should prevent contact between glass and metal. Bearing elements that are stable under the influence of pressure are installed in advance or inserted during assembly. They are placed especially under the canopy plate, on the lower supporting arm. A pressure-stable front support element mounted on the lower support arm also serves to prevent pull-out.

[0025] On the front side of the upper supporting arm, at least one sealing element is placed in order to seal from the upper side of the canopy plate.

[0026] Safety elements are inserted into the grooves of the canopy plate in the assembled state for mechanical fastening. The safety element itself can be made in different configurations. It can be made as a wedge, a wedge, in the shape of the letter T, with protrusions, elements in the form of a cuff or the like.

[0027] Placing the safety elements in the notch during assembly is quick and can be done simply, since a sufficiently large notch forms an air gap around the safety element. If the canopy panel is pulled, then the safety element rests on the edge of the corresponding support arm and, if necessary, on the edge of the glass and thanks to this it holds the canopy panel. If the canopy panel is exposed to a stronger pull, then the safety element tilts and wedges so that the canopy panel is held securely.

[0028] The assembly of the canopy structure is carried out as follows: the canopy plate, which is especially made of laminated glass, is inserted from the outside between the two supporting arms of the supporting profile.

[0029] Then, on both sides of the canopy plate, one safety element is inserted into the side notches. This can be done from the side. Seals are inserted before or after, or protection against withdrawal.

[0030] Lateral slippage of safety elements is prevented thanks to the use of enclosing elements. If several canopy panels are installed next to each other, then an adjustable selection of the distance between the individual canopy panels prevents lateral slippage.

[0031] Accordingly, the structure of the canopy according to the invention is cantilevered and therefore, thanks to the inserted safety elements, ensures a firm and reliable holding of the canopy panel in the holding assembly.

[0032] The holding assembly according to the invention, which contains a safety element, has the advantage that in case of breakage of one or both/more glass plates of the canopy plate, it is ensured that the canopy plate does not slip out of its holding assembly.

[0033] The structure of the canopy according to the invention is therefore more cost-effective, since the simple assembly of the structure does not require complicated drilling of the glass.

[0034] Mechanical fastening by means of a safety element in the construction is easier to press, screw or glue, since it is no longer necessary to stand on top of the plate in order to, for example, make a screw connection.

[0035] Also, reliable suspension of the canopy plate is provided even under the influence of strong weather influences, such as wind, snow, etc.

[0036] Other advantages and preferred embodiments of the invention can be understood from the following description of the drawings, drawings and patent claims.

[0037] In the following, one example of the implementation of the solution according to the invention will be described in more detail on the basis of the attached schematic drawings. Here it shows:

where Fig. 11.a shows a cross-section through the supporting profile, canopy plate, security element made in the shape of the letter L, as well as one supporting element and several pressure elements,

Fig.11.b: shows a cross-section through the supporting profile and canopy plate under the action of traction force,

Fig.11.c: shows a cross-section through the supporting profile and canopy plate under the action of a strong traction force.

[0038] Fig. 1 shows the plate 10 of the canopy from above. It has a first notch 12 and a second notch 14, whereby the first notch 12, viewed from above, is located on the left side edge 16 of the canopy plate 10 and the second notch 14, viewed from above, is located on the right side edge 18 of the canopy plate 10. There is at least one notch 12 in the plate 10 of the canopy.

[0039] "Up" in this context means the direction towards the upper side, or. towards the roof of the building on which the canopy plate 10 should be placed. In this view, the canopy plate 10 is not yet installed in the holding assembly.

[0040] Fig.2 shows the structure 20 of the canopy with the plate 10 of the canopy and the supporting profile 22. The supporting profile 22 has the first supporting arm 24, as well as the second supporting arm 26, between which the plate 10 of the canopy is inserted.

[0041] At the same time, the plate 10 of the canopy has a first glass plate 28, as well as a second glass plate 30, which together form a laminated glass plate. The canopy panel 10 has one notch 12, which in this embodiment is made in both glass panels 28 and 30.

[0042] The canopy plate 10 shown is connected to the structure 32 via a holding assembly, in this example of the carrying profile 22.

[0043] Fig.3 shows the views of different sections of the supporting profile 22.

[0044] Fig.3.a shows a supporting profile 22 with an upper 24 and a lower supporting arm 26. Both supporting arms 24, 26 are placed at right angles, at a distance corresponding to the plate 10 of the canopy to be inserted, approximately centrally on the back plate 34 of the supporting profile 22.

[0045] Fig.3.b shows the supporting profile 22 with the upper 24 and the lower supporting arm 26, whereby both supporting arms are placed approximately at a right angle in the area of the edges of the back panel 34 at a mutual distance, whereby the distance of the supporting arms is such that it is approximately equal to the distance of the clear width corresponding to the canopy panel to be inserted.

[0046] Fig.3.c shows the axonometric view of the supporting profile 22 according to Fig.3.a, 3.b in a section from the side. In this context, "from the side" means viewed from the side in the state mounted on the structure 32.

[0047] Fig.3.d shows a supporting profile 22 with an upper 24 and a lower 26 supporting arm, whereby both supporting arms 24, 26, which are placed approximately centrally in relation to the rear panel 34, are located at a distance corresponding to the canopy panel to be inserted, bent downwards relative to the horizontal.

[0048] In this case, "lower", or the lower supporting arm 26 in the assembled state is directed in the direction of the ground.

[0049] Fig. 3.e shows the supporting profile 22, similar to Fig. 3.b, whereby, unlike Fig. 3.b, the supporting arms 24, 26 are placed at an angle in relation to the back plate 34.

[0050] Fig.3.f shows an axonometric view of the supporting profile 22, similar to Fig.3.d, 3.e, in a partial section from the side.

[0051] The angle between the back plate 34 of the supporting profile 22 and both supporting arms 24, 26 can vary as needed and depending on the desired slope of the canopy construction. Thus, the supporting profile 22 can be made so that the canopy plate to be inserted into it has a slope towards its front side.

[0052] Fig.4 shows a canopy panel 10 which is made as a laminated glass panel with a first glass panel 28 and a second glass panel 30, as well as an intermediate layer 36 in a side view. The canopy panel 10 may contain other glass panels and/or other intermediate layers. The middle layer 36 is made, for example, of PVB or SGP foil.

[0053] Fig.5 shows the first example of the execution of the plate 10 of the canopy with a notch 12, whereby this notch is performed in both glass plates 28, 30.

[0054] Fig.6 shows another example of the design of the plate 10 of the canopy with a notch 12, whereby the notch 12 is made here in the upper, first glass plate 28. The notch 12 can also be made only in the lower glass plate 30. The notch 12 can also be made only in one part of the glass plate 28 and/or 30. In this case, the notch 12 is made approximately perpendicular to the direction of the thickness of the glass plates 28, 30.

[0055] Fig.7 shows the supporting surface 38 of the structure 20 of the canopy with the plate 10 of the canopy, which has two glass plates 28, 30, with the supporting profile 22, which has a back plate 34, an upper support arm 24 and a lower support arm 26. The back plate 34 is connected to the structure 32.

[0056] Fig.8 shows the holding assembly 22 with inserted safety element 40 and the corresponding design of the supporting arms 24, 26. The holding assembly 22 with the back plate 34 is mounted on the structure 32, for example, by means of a screw connection. The plate 10 of the canopy with both glass plates 28, 30 is inserted between both supporting arms 24, 26. The first supporting arm 24 has a recess 42 on its lower side. The second supporting arm 26 has a recess 44 on its upper side. they can be performed in both supporting arms 24, 26 or also only in one supporting arm.

[0057] Between the supporting arms 24, 26, a safety element 40 is inserted on the plate 10 of the canopy. This safety element 40 serves for the safe connection of the holding assembly 22 and the plate 10 of the canopy.

[0058] On the front side 46 of the support arm 26, between the support arm 26 and the glass plate 30 of the canopy plate 10, a support element 48 is placed. The support element 48 can be made, for example, as an EPDM pressure part. This supporting element 48 serves to support the plate 10 of the canopy. In this context "front side" 46 refers to the direction forward, i.e. away from the building 32.

[0059] On the front side 50 of the supporting arm 24, a sealing element 52 is placed, which can also serve as an insurance against pulling out. The sealing element 52 can be made, for example, as an EPDM sealing and pressure profile. At the end of the structure 20 of the canopy, which faces the structure 32, between the supporting arms 24, 26 and the plate 10 of the canopy, other pressure parts can be placed, especially those made of plastic.

[0060] Fig.9 shows different embodiments of the second supporting arm 26. These embodiments can represent the implementation of the first supporting arm 24 as in a mirror around the central axis located between both supporting arms. Either one, or both of the supporting arms can be performed in a suitable manner. The execution depends on the shape of the security element to be inserted.

[0061] Fig.9.a shows the supporting arm 26 from the side with the step 54,

[0062] Fig.9.b shows the supporting arm 26 with a protrusion 56, as well as a beveled surface 58,

[0063] Fig.9.c shows the supporting arm 26 with the projection 60,

[0064] Fig.9.d shows the supporting arm 26 with one first extension 62 and one second extension 64,

[0065] Fig.9.e shows the support arm 26 with the third extension 66 as well as with the beveled surface 68.

[0066] The embodiments shown in Fig. 9 are only examples. Also, any other suitable design of the corresponding engagement openings may be selected for each suitable form of security element to be inserted.

[0067] Fig. 10 shows, as an example, different versions of the security element 40, in a cross-section from the side.

[0068] Fig. 10.a shows the canopy plate 10 with the supporting profile 22, placed on the building 32. The upper supporting arm 24, the lower supporting arm 26 with the corresponding front areas 50 and 46 are shown, whereby a sealing element 52 is placed between the front area 50 and the upper glass plate 28, and between the front area 46 and the lower glass plate 30 plates 10 of the canopy, a supporting element 48 is placed. The supporting element 48 is made so that it is stable under the effect of pressure, thus preventing the contact of the glass plate 30 with the metal of the lower supporting arm 26. The supporting arms 24, 26 can be made with the same or different length.

[0069] On the lower supporting arm 26, there is a step 54, in which a safety element 40 is inserted. Seen from the side, the safety element 40 is made in the shape of the letter L and rests on the step 54 so that the lateral movement of the canopy plate 10 is no longer possible. In this embodiment, the safety element 40 is inserted only in the lower glass panel 30.

[0070] In contrast, in Fig. 10.b the safety element 40 is inserted in both glass plates 28, 30, as well as in the middle layer 36. The safety element 40 has a longitudinally derived outlet 70 on its lower side.

The formation of protrusions 60 on the lower support arm 26 ensures the retention of the safety element 40.

[0071] Fig.10.c shows the safety element 40 with the first protrusion 72 and the second protrusion 74, whereby the first protrusion 72 engages inside the first extension 62, and the second protrusion 74 inside the second extension 64 the protrusions formed by them, and thanks to this, a firm hold of the safety element 40 is provided.

[0072] Fig.10.d shows the safety element 40, which in this embodiment has a side outlet 76 on its lower side. This side outlet 76 can also be made laterally. The side outlet 76 thereby engages under the third extension 66 in the lower supporting arm 26 and thanks to this it is held. On the smooth side 78, which lies opposite the side outlet 76, the safety element 40 abuts the formed edge 80 of the lower support arm 26.

[0073] Fig.10.e shows the execution of the security element 40 for application in the notch of the canopy plate, which is executed in both glass plates, as well as in the middle layer.

[0074] Accordingly, the position of the security element 40 is also variable. This makes it easier to insert.

[0075] Fig.11.a shows the canopy plate 10 with one notch 12. The notch 12 is made only in the second glass plate 30. The canopy plate 10 is held in the supporting profile 22 and rests on the supporting element 48.

[0076] A safety element 40, which is made in the shape of the letter L, is inserted into the notch 12. The back side of the plate 10 of the canopy, which is directed in the direction of the back plate 34 of the supporting profile 22, rests on the lower pressure element 82, while it is held by the upper pressure element 84. On the front side of the first support arm 24, between it and the first glass plate 28, a sealing element 52 is placed. Thanks to the weight of the plate. 10 of the canopy on the supporting arms 24, 26 and the arrangement of the supporting elements 48, as well as the lower pressure element 82 and the holding of the upper pressure element 84, the plate 10 is held reliably. The safety element 40 provides protection against movement or falling out of the canopy plate 10 under the influence of particularly heavy loads.

[0077] In order to introduce the safety element 40, an air gap 88 is made. Thanks to this, the easy insertion of the safety element 40 is enabled.

[0078] Fig. 11.b shows, in comparison with Fig. 11.a, the plate 10 of the canopy, which is affected by pulling in the direction of the arrow. One edge 86 of the glass of the second glass plate 30 presses the safety element 40. It, for its part, presses, or rests on the edge 80 of the supporting arm 26 and thanks to this the canopy plate 10 is held in place.

[0079] In Fig. 11.c, in comparison with Fig. 11.a, the plate 10 of the canopy is shown, which is affected by an even stronger pull in the direction of the arrow. This causes the safety element 40 to tilt and wedge so that the canopy panel 10 is held securely. Wedging is also achieved if the safety element 40 is designed as a wedge, wedge or the like. without bent foot.

[0080] Thanks to this, the safety element 40 can be easily inserted during assembly, since the air gap 88, as well as the design of the glass plates 28, 30, as well as the supporting arms 24, 26 of the supporting profile 22 provide a clearance. Thanks to this construction and arrangement of the supporting element 48, as well as the pressure elements 82, 84, tilting is ensured, as well as the associated tamping, and thus stable holding of the safety element 40 for the canopy plate 20 in the assembly 22 for holding under the effect of strong traction forces, in order to keep the canopy plate 10 securely in place. Thanks to the mechanical fastening of the canopy panels in the structure, the canopy is held firmly and reliably.
