Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a tilting support for a sliding tilting window or sliding tilting door, the tilting support having a frame-side hardware component and a sash-side hardware component, a base plate having one of the hardware components, a support arm pivotally supported in an elongated hole arranged in the translation direction of the base plate, and a control arm pivotally supported in the base plate and the support arm, wherein the control arm has an opening notch for a control slider movable by a movable transmission rod.

[0002] A hardware fitting for a sliding or tilting sash of a window, door, or similar object is known from DE 40 16 341 C1. This hardware fitting has a support arm that can be forcibly opened via a control arm using a lever. The support arm extends through a tongue-and-groove space between the frame and the sash via a vertical support arm. Therefore, when the window is closed, the support portion of the support arm at the frame is visible.

[0003] A hardware component for a fan that can be forcibly tilted and opened in parallel is known from DE 41 38 331 A1, wherein a support arm engages with an operating lever located at the fan component. The support arm extends through a tongue and groove in the fan component. This results in a very protruding structure for the hardware component.

[0004] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to improve the above-mentioned type of inclined support, so that its structure is particularly compact and particularly easy to install.

[0005] According to the present invention, the problem is solved by the following method: when the support arm swings to a position above the substrate, the retaining protrusion of the control slider engages with the rear retaining strip of the support arm from the rear, wherein the rear retaining notch has a widened portion on the side opposite to the rear retaining strip, such that the rear retaining notch is wider than the retaining protrusion.

[0006] With this design, the components of the tilting brace can be sequentially connected to each other in the mounting bracket. The control slider is preferably fixed to the drive rod in the final step, for example, by riveting. The widened portion in the brace arm allows the riveting tool to easily access the control slider. Thanks to this invention, no additional space is required to house the mounting tool. This makes the tilting brace structure particularly compact.

[0007] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the substrate has an increased portion that increases the thickness of the control arm material, and an elongated hole for the support arm is arranged in the increased portion, and the support portion of the control arm is arranged in front of the increased portion, it helps to further reduce the size of the tilting support.

[0008] With this design, the components of the tilting brace are arranged in a sandwich-like, overlapping manner. Therefore, all components can be concealed within the tongue and groove joints between the frame and the fan. The preset fan opening width can be easily adjusted by controlling the corresponding lengths of the control arm and the brace arm. This results in a particularly compact structure for the tilting brace.

[0009] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the support for the longitudinally guiding transmission rod is arranged below the notch for the opposing hardware when the support arm is swung above the base plate, it helps to further simplify the installation.

[0010] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the substrate has two bends to form the raised section, the formation of the raised section is structurally particularly simple. Preferably, the raised section has only the total height of the control arm, resulting in a particularly small overall structural height. The two bends ensure the stability of the substrate and the raised section.

[0011] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the substrate is fixed to the cover rail of the fan-side hardware component, and the control slider, operated by the drive rod, is movably guided at the cover rail, it helps to simplify the connection between the tilting support and the parallel opening, translation, and tilting hardware components. The control slider is fixed to the drive rod of the fan-side hardware component.

[0012] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, the stability of the tilting brace is high when the substrate is wider than the cover rail.

[0013] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the control slider protrudes from the cover rail on the side, it can be easily ensured that a large leverage effect is exerted when driving the control arm.

[0014] Uneven cover rails can cause the control slider to tilt. According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the cover rail has a flat track for supporting the control slider base, the control slider can withstand high support forces. Thus, the control slider has the largest possible contact area on the cover rail.

[0015] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the control slider has a control protrusion extending into the opening notch of the control arm, wherein the notch and the control protrusion are designed with complementary rounded corners, a control arm drive with particularly low friction can be achieved. Therefore, the notch of the control arm and the control protrusion form a joint socket, such that the control arm is driven by the control protrusion when the drive rod is driven.

[0016] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, the control slider is structurally particularly simple when the control protrusion is arranged on a base fixed to the drive rod. Here, the length of the base is a measure of the amount by which the control slider protrudes from the cover rail on the side.

[0017] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the base of the control slider, the control protrusion, and the retaining protrusion are integrally manufactured, it helps to further simplify the structural design of the tilting support.

[0018] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, the manufacture of the control slider is structurally particularly simple when the retaining protrusion protrudes from the control protrusion. Preferably, the retaining protrusion has the same outer contour as the control protrusion on one side and can therefore be arranged at its outer boundary.

[0019] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, the structure of the inclined support is particularly compact when the control protrusion has a stepped surface for receiving the rear buckle.

[0020] According to another advantageous improvement of the invention, when the support portion of the control arm in the stop arm is eccentrically offset relative to the control arm, the control arm can be reliably prevented from extending beyond the stop arm. This design also allows the control arm to be designed to be very short, which helps to further save material.

[0021] This invention allows for many implementations. One such implementation is shown in the accompanying drawings to further illustrate its basic principles, and will be described below. In the drawings: Figure 1 A partial area of ​​a sliding tilt window with sliding tilt hardware and tilt bracing is schematically shown; Figure 2 Shown in an enlarged perspective view when in an inclined position Figure 1 Inclined bracing; Figure 3 Shown in another perspective Figure 1 Inclined bracing; Figure 4 Significantly magnified Figure 2 The control slider of the tilting support; Figure 5 Showing the parallel open position Figure 2 Inclined bracing; Figure 6 Showing the locked position Figure 2 The inclined support.

[0022] Figure 1A partial area of ​​a sliding tilt window is shown, comprising sliding tilt hardware 1, tilt brace 2, and scissor brace 3. Tilting brace 2 has frame-side hardware 4 and sash-side hardware 5, which are interconnected via a brace arm 6. Scissor brace 3 also has a brace arm 7 for supporting the sash. For simplicity, only the hardware 4 and 5 connected to the frame and sash are shown. The sliding tilt hardware 1 is connected to the tilt brace 2 via a drive rod 9 guided movably at a cover rail 8. The drive rod 9 drives a plurality of locking elements 10 arranged around the periphery of the sash and the tilt brace 2.

[0023] Figure 2 Showing the fan in the tilted position Figure 1 The inclined support 2. The support arm 6 of the inclined support 2 connects the fan-side hardware 5 and the frame-side hardware 4. A retaining pin 11 of the frame-side hardware 4 is shown, which extends into a one-sided opening notch 12 at the free end of the support arm 6. The retaining pin 11 and the notch 12 form a support portion for the free end of the support arm 6 at the frame. When the support arm 6 swings above the cover rail 5, the notch 12 moves above the support body 37 connected to the cover rail 5.

[0024] The inclined support 2 has a base plate 13 fixed to the cover rail 8. This base plate has an extended section 14 with a support portion 15 for the support arm 6 in the elongated hole 16. The extended section 14 is separated from a lower section 19 flat against the cover rail 8 by two bends 17 and 18. The control arm 20 has a central support portion 21 on the lower section 19. One end of the control arm 20 is connected to the support arm 6 via a support portion 23, and the other end has an opening notch 24 for connecting to a control protrusion 25 of the transmission rod 9. When the transmission rod 9 moves longitudinally, the control protrusion 25 moves along a flat slide 38 of the cover rail 8, causing the control arm 20 to swing, as... Figure 5 and Figure 6 Detailed description. The support portion 23 of the control arm 20 in the support arm 6 is offset relative to the control arm 20 so that even in the tilted position shown, the control arm 20 does not extend beyond the support arm 6.

[0025] A retaining protrusion 26 extending beyond the control arm 20 is arranged on the control protrusion 25. The support arm 6 also has a rear retaining strip 27 with an introductory ramp 28 for retaining the protrusion 26. The rear retaining strip 27 restricts the rear retaining notch 29 of the support arm 6. Due to the widening portion 36, the rear retaining notch 29 is wider than the retaining protrusion 26.

[0026] Figure 3 Shown in another perspective Figure 2 The inclined support 2. The control protrusion 25 is part of the control slider 30. The control slider 30 protrudes from the cover rail 8 on the side. The base plate 13 also protrudes from the cover rail 8 on the side.

[0027] Figure 4 The control slider 30 is shown in a significantly enlarged perspective view. The control slider 30 has a base 31 with a retaining pin 32 for riveting to the drive rod 9. A control protrusion 25 protrudes from the base 31 and has a rounded corner on its outer side, which is complementary to the rounded corner of the single-sided opening notch 24 of the control arm 20. A retaining protrusion 26 protrudes from the control protrusion 25 and continues the rounded corner of the control protrusion 25 on one side. On the side opposite to this rounded corner, the retaining protrusion 26 has a flat direct contact surface 33 for sliding along the rear retaining strip 27 of the support arm 6. Figure 5 and Figure 6 In the position shown, the rear retaining bar 27 of the support arm 6 is supported by the stepped surface 34. The control arm 20 rests flat on the support surface 35 of the base 31 in any position.

[0028] Figure 5 This shows the effect after the drive rod 9 drives the control slider 30. Figure 2 The tilting support 2. By driving the control slider 30, the control arm 20 swings toward the cover rail 8 via the connection of the control protrusion 25 and the one-sided opening notch 24. The support arm 6 is partially located above the cover rail 8. The control protrusion 25 remains in the one-sided opening notch 24 of the control arm 20. This indicates the parallel open position of the tilting support 2. In this position, the fan opens parallel to the frame and is movable. The retaining protrusion 26 is located in front of the lead-in ramp 28 of the rear retaining strip 27 of the support arm 6.

[0029] Figure 6 Showing the locked position Figure 2 2. Inclined bracing.

[0030] and Figure 5 As can be seen from the position comparison, by driving the transmission rod 9, the slider 20 is controlled to move further, so that the retaining protrusion 26 is guided behind the rear buckle 27 of the support arm 6. At this time, the retaining protrusion 26 has passed the introduction slope 28 of the rear buckle 27, and the support arm 6 is positioned relative to... Figure 5 The position shown is further pulled above the cover rail 8. The control slider 30 supports the rear retaining bar 27 via the contact surface 33, keeping the support arm 6 above the cover rail 9. In this position, the fan is locked in the frame.

[0031] In addition, from Figure 6 As can be seen, due to the widened portion 36, the rear notch 29 is wider than the retaining protrusion 26, allowing the control slider 30 to be accessed by the installation tool. The notch 12 of the support arm 6 is located above the support body 37.
