Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building technology, and in particular to a balcony-type window adapted for the renovation of attic floors in buildings. Background Technology

[0002] An attic is an additional space located under the roof of a building, usually on the top floor. It is typically an extra living or storage area created by converting the space of a sloping roof. It is structurally connected to the roof. In a pitched roof building, the attic consists of the space between the sloping roof and the roof slab. The roof is the highest part of the building, serving to cover and bear the weight. To meet the needs of living, working, or relaxing in the attic, windows are usually installed on the top of the attic, that is, on one side of the sloping roof, to improve the lighting and ventilation inside the attic. Currently, most rooftop windows are conventional windows with fixed structures, offering limited ventilation and lighting, and serving a single function. When rooftop windows are designed to be flush with the roof, the lighting area in the attic is limited and singular. When conventional windows are designed, their protruding shape compromises the roof's overall wind resistance. As usage demands increase, there are corresponding requirements for both roof lighting and usable area. Adding balconies improves both lighting and usable space, but when it comes to modifying rooftops to include balconies, it's difficult to simultaneously address the issues of the original roof's structural flatness, wind resistance stability, and the need for improved lighting. Even with rear-mounted balconies, the process is cumbersome and the configuration methods vary. There is no standardized way to add balconies. Furthermore, the current methods for adding balconies are inconsistent, requiring significant modifications to the roof and involving complex procedures. There is no standardized and simple way to modify existing windows. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a balcony-style window that is suitable for the renovation of attic floors in buildings.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A balcony-style window adapted for attic renovation includes an upper sliding window sash and a lower sliding window sash located at the attic level. A rectangular opening is provided in the attic level, and fixed frames are installed on the inner walls of both sides of the rectangular opening. The upper and lower sliding window sashes are rotatably installed between the two fixed frames. An adjustable sliding mechanism is provided at the bottom of the upper sliding window sash. Tracks are provided on the outer walls of the two fixed frames away from the attic walls. A main slider is pre-installed inside each of the two tracks. Handrails are rotatably installed at the ends of the two main sliders away from the tracks. Multiple guardrails are also rotatably installed inside the two tracks. The tops of the guardrails are rotatably connected to their corresponding handrails. The ends of the two handrails away from the fixed frames are hinged to the top ends of the lower sliding window sash. The upper and lower sliding window sashes can switch between an outward-opening balcony mode and an inward-closing window mode through the cooperation of the adjustable sliding mechanism, tracks, and main sliders.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment: the adjustable push-pull mechanism includes two slide grooves opened at the bottom of the upper push-pull window sash, and a slider is installed inside each of the two slide grooves. A limit mechanism is provided on the outer wall of the side where the two sliders are close to each other.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, both sliders are equipped with telescopic rods at their bottom ends, and both telescopic rods are provided with fasteners for limiting and fixing the length of their telescopic ends.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the telescopic ends of the two telescopic rods are jointly equipped with a fixing rod, and the bottom end of the fixing rod is equipped with two handles.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom end of the fixing rod is also equipped with multiple first fixing rings, all of which can be used to hang clothes hangers.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment: a plurality of second fixing rings of the same size as the first fixing ring are installed on one side of the outer wall of the lower sliding window sash, a plurality of connecting rods are provided between the upper sliding window sash and the lower sliding window sash, and hooks are installed at both ends of the plurality of connecting rods. The plurality of connecting rods are connected to the first fixing ring and the second fixing ring that are close to each other through the hooks at both ends, and suspension rods are installed on the outer wall of the plurality of connecting rods.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment: the limiting mechanism includes two fixed plates installed at the bottom of the upper sliding window sash. Each of the two fixed plates has a through groove inside. Each of the two sliders has a screw installed on the outer wall of the side that is close to each other. Both screws can reciprocate along the length of the corresponding through groove. Each of the two screws has a nut threaded on the end away from the slider.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model enables the modification of existing building windows. Without altering the original window's position, the existing window frame is replaced with this utility model. The upper and lower sliding window sashes, through an adjustable sliding mechanism, track, and main slider, allow for conversion between an outward-opening balcony mode and an inward-closing window mode. This improves the original flatness and basic wind resistance of the building roof. It allows for the conversion of windows into balconies or balconies into windows to meet varying needs for lighting and expanded usable area. Specific advantages include: In this utility model, by utilizing the cooperation between multiple components such as the upper sliding window sash and the lower sliding window sash, when both the upper and lower sliding window sashes are in the outward-opening state, natural light can be introduced to the maximum extent. This allows for the conversion of the balcony and window to suit different weather conditions and usage needs, forming a standardized renovation process for the attic window, making the attic more livable. After the renovation, the roof space can be transformed into a usable area, increasing the indoor usable area, improving the transparency of the roof space, enhancing natural light, and improving the sense of space.

[0012] In this utility model, the adjustable push-pull mechanism allows users of different heights to manually push and pull the upper push-pull window sash, ensuring good performance and user experience after the upper push-pull window sash is rotated outwards and unfolded; it can also be used as a clothes rack, allowing users to hang clothes that need to be dried inside the multiple first fixing rings, thus improving the versatility of the adjustable push-pull mechanism.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0016] Reference Figures 1 to 11 A balcony-style window adapted for the renovation of building attic floors. The balcony structure of this utility model is a modified design that utilizes the original window position on the roof for concealed deformation, realizing a standardized conversion process for the use of a balcony and a window. This utility model includes an upper sliding window sash 3 and a lower sliding window sash 4 installed on the attic floor 1. A rectangular opening is provided on the attic floor 1, and fixed frames 2 are installed on the inner walls of both sides of the rectangular opening. The upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4 are rotatably installed between the two fixed frames 2. The bottom of the upper sliding window sash 3 is provided with an adjustable sliding mechanism to facilitate the sliding of people of different heights.

[0017] As a technical optimization of this utility model, each of the two fixed frames 2 has a track 2-1 on the outer wall away from the wall of the attic floor 1. Each track 2-1 has a pre-set main slider 2-2. A handrail 5 is rotatably mounted on the end of each main slider 2-2 away from the track 2-1. Multiple guardrails 6 are also rotatably mounted inside the two tracks 2-1. The tops of the guardrails 6 are rotatably connected to their corresponding handrails 5. The ends of the two handrails 5 away from the fixed frame 2 are hinged to the top ends of the lower sliding window sash 4. When the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4 are normally used as windows in the attic floor 1, they are... Figure 2As shown, when it needs to be unfolded for use as a leisure balcony, the user, located inside attic floor 1, first pushes the upper sliding window sash 3 outward to a horizontal position. The upper sliding window sash 3 can then be secured by its built-in limiter into the corresponding slot, preventing it from being blown back by the wind. Next, the lower sliding window sash 4 is pushed outward to a vertical position. This causes one end of each of the two handrails 5 to slide downward within track 2-1, and the multiple folded and retracted railings 6 gradually unfold outward to a vertical position. Simultaneously, the built-in limiter secures the lower sliding window sash 4 to its vertical position, thus achieving the desired vertical orientation. Figure 1 As shown, the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4, when unfolded, are located outside the attic floor 1, forming a leisure balcony, allowing users to rest below the upper sliding window sash 3.

[0018] During installation, the top of track 2-1 can be equipped with a strip-shaped baffle or a protective shell to protect it from rain or debris. This facilitates the reciprocating movement of the main slider 2-2 and allows for regular cleaning of track 2-1 to ensure its durable and stable performance.

[0019] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the adjustable push-pull mechanism includes two sliding grooves 7 opened at the bottom of the upper push-pull window sash 3. A slider 12 is installed inside each of the two sliding grooves 7, and a limiting mechanism is provided on the outer wall of the side of the two sliders 12 that are close to each other. With the help of the limiting mechanism, the slider 12 can be limited and fixed after sliding to a designated position.

[0020] As a technical optimization of this utility model, each of the two sliders 12 has a telescopic rod 13 installed at its bottom end, and each of the two telescopic rods 13 is provided with a fastener 14 for limiting and fixing the length of its telescopic end. Both telescopic rods 13 are telescopic round rods that are manually adjusted at their telescopic ends in the prior art; after adjusting the telescopic length of the telescopic rod 13, the telescopic end of the telescopic rod 13 can be limited and fixed by rotating the fastener 14.

[0021] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a fixing rod 9 is installed at the telescopic ends of the two telescopic rods 13, and two handles 10 are installed at the bottom of the fixing rod 9. The upward sliding window sash 3 can be pushed and pulled by manually holding the two handles 10 with both hands at the same time.

[0022] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a plurality of first fixing rings 15 are also installed at the bottom end of the fixing rod 9, and all of the plurality of first fixing rings 15 can be used to hang clothes hangers. Figure 1As shown, when the upper sliding window sash 3 is in the unfolded state, the fixing rod 9 and multiple first fixing rings 15 located at the bottom of the upper sliding window sash 3 can be used as a clothes rack, making it convenient for users to hang the clothes rack inside the first fixing rings 15.

[0023] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a plurality of second fixing rings 20 of the same size as the first fixing ring 15 are installed on one side of the outer wall of the lower sliding window sash 4. A plurality of connecting rods 18 are provided between the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4. Hooks 21 are installed at both ends of the plurality of connecting rods 18. The plurality of connecting rods 18 are connected to the first fixing ring 15 and the second fixing ring 20 that are close to them through the hooks 21 at both ends. That is, each connecting rod 18 is connected to the first fixing ring 15 and the second fixing ring 20 that are close to it through its corresponding hooks 21. A suspension rod 19 is installed on the outer wall of the plurality of connecting rods 18. Multiple connecting rods 18 are installed between the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4. When the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4 are unfolded and used as a leisure balcony, other lighter items such as gloves and socks can be placed on the multiple hanging rods 19 for drying, according to actual needs, further improving the leisure balcony's drying space for household items and clothes. It also prevents children playing on the balcony from attempting to climb down from the top of the lower sliding window sash 4. Moreover, the multiple connecting rods 18 also have the effect of assisting in supporting and limiting the upper sliding window sash 3, which is in a horizontal state, further improving the pressure resistance of the upper sliding window sash 3 when unfolded and used, preventing it from rotating downwards and returning to its original position, thus avoiding the risk of injury to people below the upper sliding window sash 3.

[0024] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the limiting mechanism includes two fixing plates 8 installed at the bottom of the upper sliding window sash 3. Each fixing plate 8 has a through groove 11 inside. A screw 16 is installed on the outer wall of the side of each of the two sliders 12 that are close to each other. Both screws 16 can move back and forth within their respective through grooves 11. A nut 17 is threaded onto the end of each screw 16 away from the slider 12. While the slider 12 moves back and forth within the slide groove 7, it can drive the corresponding screw 16 to move back and forth synchronously within the through groove 11. Once the slider 12 has moved to the appropriate position, the nut 17 is threaded onto and tightened with the screw 16, thus simultaneously limiting and fixing the positions of the screw 16 and the slider 12 within the through groove 11 and slide groove 7, facilitating the use of the fixing rod 9 and other components below.

[0025] In this utility model, such as Figure 2As shown, at this time, the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4 are located on one side of the attic floor 1 and are used as ordinary windows. When they need to be unfolded for use as a leisure balcony, the user, inside the attic floor 1, first pushes the upper sliding window sash 3 outward to a horizontal position. The upper sliding window sash 3 can then be locked into the corresponding slot by its built-in limiter to limit and fix it, preventing the upper sliding window sash 3 from being blown back by the wind. Then, the lower sliding window sash 4 is pushed outward to rotate into a vertical position. This causes one end of the two handrails 5 to slide downward inside the track 2-1, and the multiple folded and retracted railings 6 gradually follow and rotate outward to unfold into a vertical position. At the same time, the built-in limiter limits and fixes the vertical position of the lower sliding window sash 4, i.e., it is in a vertical position. Figure 1 As shown, the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4, when unfolded, are located outside the attic floor 1, forming a leisure balcony, allowing users to rest below the upper sliding window sash 3.

[0026] If the user is short or is a child, to ensure that the upper sliding window sash 3 can rotate outward to the specified horizontal position, the user can adjust the length of the telescopic ends of the two telescopic rods 13 inside the attic floor 1. After the two telescopic rods 13 are adjusted to a longer position, the user can then hold the two handles 10 with both hands to push and pull the upper sliding window sash 3. This ensures that the upper sliding window sash 3 can accurately rotate to a horizontal position after it is rotated outward, so that the built-in limiter can limit and fix the upper sliding window sash 3 when it is rotated to a horizontal position, ensuring that the upper sliding window sash 3 has a good usage effect and user experience after it is rotated outward.

[0027] When it is necessary to fold it back, the user can first release the limiting device of the sliding window sash 4, and then manually pull the sliding window sash 4 from inside the attic floor 1. This will cause the two horizontal handrails 5 and the multiple vertical guardrails 6 to slowly rotate towards the track 2-1 until the multiple guardrails 6 are rotated and stored inside the track 2-1, and the two handrails 5 are rotated to a state parallel to the two fixed frames 2. At this time, the sliding window sash 4 is rotated and stored between the two fixed frames 2. Then, the user can hold the two handles 10 with both hands and pull the sliding window sash 3 until the sliding window sash 3 is pulled and stored between the two fixed frames 2. Ensure that the sliding window sash 3 presses against the sliding window sash 4 synchronously, and use the built-in limiting device to limit and fix the sliding window sash 3 after it has been rotated and stored.

[0028] When the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4 are rotated outwards and unfolded for use as a leisure balcony, the adjustable sliding mechanism located below the upper sliding window sash 3 is idle. By loosening the two nuts 17, the fixed rod 9 is pushed to drive the two sliders 12 and the screw 16 to move and adjust inside the corresponding slide groove 7 and through groove 11. After determining the position of the fixed rod 9 and the two sliders 12, the position of the fixed rod 9 can be limited and fixed by tightening the two nuts 17, so that the adjustable sliding mechanism can be used as a clothes rack, making it convenient for users to hang clothes that need to be dried inside the multiple first fixing rings 15, thus improving the practicality of the adjustable sliding mechanism.

[0029] At the same time, users can connect the hooks 21 at both ends of multiple connecting rods 18 to their corresponding first fixing rings 15 and second fixing rings 20 respectively, so that users can also place other lighter items such as gloves and socks on multiple hanging rods 19 for drying, further improving the drying space for household items and clothes on the leisure balcony. Furthermore, it can prevent children playing on the balcony from attempting to climb down from the top of the lower sliding window sash 4, which is dangerous. In addition, the multiple connecting rods 18 also have the effect of supporting and limiting the upper sliding window sash 3, which is horizontal above, further improving the pressure resistance of the upper sliding window sash 3 when it is unfolded and used, preventing it from rotating downwards and resetting, thus avoiding the risk of injury to people below the upper sliding window sash 3.

[0030] When the upper sliding window sash 3 and the lower sliding window sash 4 are in the normal window usage state, the adjustable sliding mechanism is located inside the attic floor 1. Users can still hang clothes or other household items on the surface of the fixing rod 9 and inside the multiple first fixing rings 15, which can further improve the versatility of the adjustable sliding mechanism's functions.
