Abstract
Description
[0001] The present invention relates to a holder for attaching a surface element of a sun, insect, rodent, dust, and / or pollen protection device to a frame of a window or door. The holder has a connection area for connection to the surface element. In addition, the holder forms a fastening space into which a section of the frame is to be inserted. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a sun, insect, rodent, dust, and / or pollen protection device, comprising a surface element for covering an opening of a window or door and at least one holder for attaching the surface element to a frame of the window or door.
[0002] Such a sun, insect, rodent, dust, and / or pollen protection device is typically attached to a window or door to protect the interior space defined by the window or door, particularly the interior of a building. Typically, the flat, extending surface element of the sun, insect, rodent, dust, and / or pollen protection device comprises a covering material, particularly designed as a mesh, mesh fabric, knitted fabric, and / or knitted fabric, as well as a surface element frame that holds and surrounds the covering material. The surface element frame can be designed as a tensioning frame.
[0003] Brackets of the type mentioned above can be used to attach the surface element to the frame. In practice, such a bracket is often designed as a single piece and made, for example, from flat steel. The bracket can have a Z-shape in cross-section, where the Z-shape refers to a three-leg arrangement in which each of the three legs is arranged at right angles to the adjacent leg and in which two outer legs branch off in opposite directions and at opposite ends from a middle leg. One of the outer legs forms the connection area for a particularly firm connection to the surface element. The connection area can, for example, have recesses for a screw connection to the surface element. The other two legs delimit, in particular together with the surface element, the fastening space into which a section of the frame is to be inserted.
[0004] However, brackets of the type described above are only suitable for certain frame thicknesses, which is why these brackets are comparatively inflexible in their use. Furthermore, the connection of such a bracket to the frame is often unstable and results in undesirable movement of the panel element and the associated noise. Furthermore, sun, insect, rodent, dust and / or pollen protection devices are relatively complex to install using such brackets. Due to the often fixed connection between the bracket and the panel element, such brackets regularly result in damage to the panel element, in particular the panel element frame, for example due to screws penetrating it. Furthermore, in the case of brackets that are to be screwed to the panel element, these brackets are only suitable for use with panel elements that actually allow such a screw connection.The range of applications of the brackets as well as the flexibility of the sun, insect, rodent, dust and / or pollen protection device are therefore limited.
[0005] The present invention is therefore based on the object of providing a holder in which the disadvantages of the prior art are at least partially reduced. Furthermore, the present invention is an object of providing a sun, insect, rodent, dust, and / or pollen protection device in which the disadvantages of the prior art are at least partially reduced.
[0006] The object is achieved by a holder according to claim 1 and a sun, insect, rodent, dust and / or pollen protection device according to claim 15. Advantageous further developments of the invention can be found in the respective dependent claims, the following description and the figures.
[0007] According to the invention, the bracket has a two-part construction with a separate first bracket part and a separate second bracket part that engages with the first bracket part when the bracket is in the mounted position. The first bracket part and the second bracket part are designed to be adjustable relative to one another in an adjustment direction to adapt the mounting space to different frame thicknesses.
[0008] With the mounting device according to the invention, the surface element is preferably arranged on the outside of the frame, i.e., on a side of the frame facing away from an interior space defined by the window or door. For this purpose, the connecting area, in particular the part of the mounting device forming the receiving space, is preferably designed such that it is arranged on the outside of the frame when the mounting device is in the mounted position.
[0009] The frame is understood to be the permanently mounted frame of the window or door. The frame preferably has a web protruding towards the center of the frame, which, viewed from the outside of the window or door, partially conceals a sash of the window or door. In particular, the frame web is to be inserted into the mounting space. The frame thickness preferably refers to the extension of the frame web in the adjustment direction. The mounting space is understood to be a space that is bounded on at least two sides but not closed.
[0010] The adjustment direction is, in particular, a dual direction, along which the first mounting part and the second mounting part can be adjusted both toward and away from each other to adapt the mounting space. The adjustment direction is, in particular, perpendicular to a plane spanned by the surface element.
[0011] The adaptation of the fastening space is understood to mean a change in the extent of the fastening space in the adjustment direction, ie in particular along a direction running perpendicular to the surface element plane in the mounted position of the holder.
[0012] The mounting parts are preferably designed to be adjustable relative to one another, allowing them to be connected to one another in different positions. Preferably, the boundaries of the fastening space located in the adjustment direction can be changed by adjusting the mounting parts, in particular, they can be displaced toward one another and / or away from one another in the adjustment direction.
[0013] Preferably, the bracket has a length of 10 millimeters to 70 millimeters, preferably 20 millimeters to 60 millimeters, particularly preferably 30 millimeters to 50 millimeters, and especially 40 millimeters, in a direction transverse to the adjustment direction and in particular parallel to a longitudinal extension of the frame profile. This makes the bracket particularly stable.
[0014] The bracket according to the invention is therefore suitable for attachment to frame thicknesses of various thicknesses and is therefore flexible. The bracket is also easy to install. Furthermore, the bracket enables a detachable, damage-free, and / or residue-free connection to the frame.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting region forms a receiving space into which a section of the surface element is to be inserted, in particular wherein the receiving space is a receiving groove delimited, in particular, on three sides by the first mounting part. The receiving space is understood to be a space delimited on at least two sides. The part of the mounting forming the receiving space preferably forms a clip for a particularly clamped connection to the mounting part. Thus, the mounting can be easily detachably and damage-freely connected to the surface element.
[0016] In a further preferred embodiment, the first mounting part forms a receiving stop that delimits the receiving space, up to which the surface element can be inserted in its insertion direction through a receiving opening of the receiving space opposite the receiving stop. The receiving stop is formed, in particular, by a base of the first mounting part. By means of the receiving stop, a defined position of the surface element relative to the mounting is achieved in the mounted position of the mounting.
[0017] The first mounting part preferably has an additional stiffening base, which is arranged in particular parallel to the receiving stop and stiffens the receiving stop. For this purpose, the stiffening base is preferably connected to the receiving stop, in particular via connecting webs. The stiffening base is preferably arranged at a distance from a base of the first mounting part that forms the receiving stop. The stiffening base additionally stiffens the base forming the receiving area. If the mounting part heats up, for example due to solar radiation, undesirable deformation of the mounting, in particular deformation of the receiving space, is at least reduced. The part of the mounting forming the receiving space is thus more stable. The mounting of the surface element is comparatively stable and secure.
[0018] The receiving space preferably has an at least partially curved and, in particular, circular-arc-shaped contour in cross-section. The cross-section is viewed transversely to a longitudinal center axis of the receiving space or of a frame profile present in the installed state. The curved, in particular circular-arc-shaped, shape of the receiving space is advantageous, in particular for the positive reception of surface elements with surface element frames that are also curved in cross-section, in particular circular-arc or circular. This is the case, for example, with surface element frames made of a wire with a circular cross-section. An opening into the receiving space preferably accounts for a proportion of less than 50 percent, particularly preferably less than 40 percent, further particularly preferably less than 30 percent of a circumference of the receiving space.Thus, the surface element can be easily inserted through the opening in its insertion direction into the receiving space and can be held there, in particular, in a form-fitting manner. In a preferred embodiment, the receiving space is open in cross-section, in particular wherein a boundary section of the first holding part that bounds the receiving space has an angled handle section at one of its ends. The receiving space, which is open in cross-section, enables, as described above, the insertion of the surface element into the receiving space through the particularly lateral opening of the receiving space in its insertion direction. The particularly circular arc-shaped boundary section of the first holding part bounds the receiving space. At the end of this boundary section, the handle section runs away from this boundary section, in particular at an angle to it. This is preferably the section facing away from the frame in the mounted position, iethe end of the boundary section further away from the frame. The handle section preferably extends in a direction away from the boundary section in the assembled position. In this case, the handle section in the assembled position has an angle of between 0 degrees and 90 degrees, 0 degrees and 45 degrees, or 0 degrees and 30 degrees to the surface element, in an increasingly preferred order. Thus, the receiving space of the in particular elastically deformable first holding part can be elastically deformed in a simple manner via the handle section and, for example, a clamping connection between the first holding part and the surface element can be established or released. In addition, such a handle section can serve as an insertion ramp for the surface element into the receiving space, thus avoiding damage to the surface element.Likewise, the grip portion enlarges the surface area of the first mounting part that can be brought into contact with the surface element, thereby preventing damage to the surface element caused by comparatively small, sharp-edged sections of the first mounting part. For this purpose, at least one edge of the grip portion facing the surface element can be formed with a rounded or chamfered portion.
[0019] In a further preferred embodiment, the first mounting part has a constriction in the receiving space for fixing the surface element in the mounted position. The constriction preferably narrows the receiving space at least in some areas, in particular in the adjustment direction. A section of the surface element, in particular the preferably present surface element frame, is thus fixed in a region of the receiving space delimited by the constriction upon insertion into the receiving space after passing through the constriction. The end point is preferably formed by at least one additional web projecting into the receiving space or at least one bulge of the mounting parts delimiting the receiving space. The part of the mounting forming the constriction, in particular a wall delimiting the receiving space and forming the constriction, is preferably designed to be at least partially elastically bendable.Thus, the constriction can be temporarily enlarged to allow passage of the section of the surface element to be fixed and, after passing the section to be fixed, reduced again to a smaller size, in particular to its original size. The size of the constriction is, in particular, smaller in the adjustment direction than the extension of the section of the surface element to be fixed, in particular the thickness of the surface element frame, in this direction. Thus, the holder is designed for a locking connection to the surface element. The connection between the holder and the surface element is therefore damage-free and secure. Undesired detachment of the holder from the surface element is avoided.
[0020] Preferably, the fastening space is a fastening groove, preferably bounded on three sides, and in particular by both the first fastening part and the second fastening part. The fastening space is preferably bounded on three sides by the bracket, in particular by the bracket parts together. In particular, the part of the bracket forming the fastening space forms a clip for clamping the connection to the frame. This easily achieves a detachable connection to the frame, in particular to the web of the frame.
[0021] The bracket preferably has a fastening stop that delimits the fastening space, up to which the frame can be inserted in its insertion direction through an insertion opening of the fastening space opposite the fastening stop. The fastening stop is preferably designed to rest against the frame in the mounted position of the bracket. In particular, the fastening stop delimits the fastening space on a central side of the three sides. This achieves a defined position of the frame relative to the bracket in the mounted position of the bracket. Furthermore, the bracket is comparatively easy to install.
[0022] In a preferred embodiment, a receiving opening of the receiving space and an insertion opening of the fastening space are arranged on opposite sides of the bracket. Preferably, an insertion direction of the surface element to be inserted into the receiving space is opposite to an insertion direction of the frame to be inserted into the fastening space. This increases the ease of installation of the bracket.
[0023] In a further preferred embodiment, the fastening space is delimited on a first side by the first holding part and on a second side opposite the first side by the second holding part. The first side and the second side are preferably located opposite one another in the adjustment direction. In addition, the first side and the second side are preferably each arranged adjacent to the central side forming the fastening stop. The frame is to be arranged, in particular in the adjustment direction, between the first side and the second side. The first holding part is preferably designed to bear against the outside of the frame. The second holding part is preferably designed to bear against the inside of the frame.The part of the first mounting part forming the first side, with its side facing away from the fastening space, preferably forms the connection area, in particular the part of the mounting part that delimits the receiving space. This facilitates a structurally simple implementation of the adjustability of the mounting.
[0024] Preferably, the first mounting part and the second mounting part are slidably connected to one another in the adjustment direction to adapt the mounting space to different frame thicknesses. To shift the boundaries of the mounting space in the adjustment direction, the parts of the mounting that delimit the mounting space, in particular the first mounting part and the second mounting part, are slidably connected to one another in the adjustment direction when the mounting is in the mounted position. This provides a simple, movable connection between the mounting parts.
[0025] Preferably, the second mounting part has a holding arm extending transversely to the adjustment direction, which, when the mounting is in the mounted position, is designed to engage over the frame on the side facing away from the surface element. "Transverse" is understood to mean either diagonally or vertically. In the mounted position of the mounting part, the frame is engaged over, in particular at least in certain areas. This provides a simple connection to the frame.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a part of the holding arm protrudes relative to a remainder of the holding arm in a direction directed towards the center of the fastening space and is designed in particular to at least partially encompass a seal arranged on the inside of the frame when the holder is in the mounted position. The seal is preferably designed as a stop seal for a stop of the window or door sash on the frame. The protruding part of the holding arm preferably protrudes increasingly with increasing distance from the remainder of the second holding part. In particular, the holding arm is curved or angled in a direction directed towards the center of the fastening space, i.e. the fastening space initially widens from the insertion opening. The holding arm thus hooks onto the seal of the frame. The connection of the holder to the frame is particularly secure.
[0027] For this purpose, the retaining arm can be designed to extend, in particular, toward the center of the mounting space. The retaining arm can be curved, at least in sections. Thus, in the mounted position, the retaining arm can follow the circumference of the seal, at least in sections, and in this section, can bear against it in a form-fitting manner.
[0028] In a further preferred embodiment, the retaining arm has at least one projection, particularly designed as a rib, on its side facing the fastening space for improved connection to the frame. This improves adhesion between the bracket and the frame. In particular, at least two, at least three, at least four, or at least five such projections are provided in an increasingly preferred order for further improved connection. Furthermore, the at least one projection is arranged, in particular, at the end of the retaining arm for preferentially enclosing a seal of the frame.
[0029] Preferably, the fastening stop is formed by a connecting section of the holder, in which the first holder part and the second holder part are connected to one another. The connecting section is formed in particular by a first connecting section of the first holder part and a second connecting section of the second holder part connected to the first connecting section. A longitudinal extension of the connecting section preferably runs in the adjustment direction. Thus, the holder has a simple design.
[0030] Preferably, one of the holding parts forms a guide for the other of the holding parts in the connecting section, in particular wherein one of the holding parts at least partially engages around the other of the holding parts. In the connected position, the second holding part preferably at least partially engages around the first holding part. The engagement preferably takes place in the respective preferably present first or second connecting section of the holding part. By engaging, the connection between the holding parts, which is in particular designed as a latching connection, is preferably fixed to one another and an unintentional release of the connection is prevented. In particular, at least a part of the engaging holding part is designed to be elastically bendable for adjusting the holder. By means of the elastic bending, this part can release space for the movement of the other holding part and thus for adjustment.This ensures a secure connection of the mounting parts and easy adjustability.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, one of the holding parts has at least one first locking element formed integrally therewith, and the other holding part has a plurality of second locking elements formed integrally therewith for adjustably locking connection to the first locking element. Preferably, the first holding part, in particular the first connecting section, has at least one first locking element, in particular designed as a locking lug. The second holding part, in particular the second connecting section, preferably has a plurality of second locking elements, each designed as a locking lug. Preferably, at least one of the holding parts, in particular both holding parts, has a plurality of first and second locking elements arranged one behind the other in the adjustment direction.In the mounted position of the bracket, at least one of the locking elements of one of the bracket parts engages with at least one other locking element of the other bracket part in an adjustable, locking manner. The locking elements preferably prevent the bracket parts, in particular the sides defining the fastening space, from moving away from each other along the adjustment direction. The locking connection can thus be installed particularly quickly and easily. Furthermore, it allows for particularly quick and easy adaptation to different frame thicknesses.
[0032] The mounting part, with a plurality of second locking elements formed integrally therewith, is designed to be shortened, particularly in the adjustment direction. For this purpose, the second locking elements are arranged at an end of the mounting part located in the adjustment direction. Furthermore, the mounting part preferably has at least one separation aid, particularly designed as a notch. The separation aid is arranged, particularly in the adjustment direction, between two second locking elements. Thus, a separation point of the mounting part is reliably marked.
[0033] The locking elements preferably enable relative movement of the mounting parts transversely to the adjustment direction. Thus, to simplify mounting of the mounting, the first mounting part and the second mounting part can be connected laterally, i.e., transversely to the adjustment direction, in a first step, in particular pushed into one another. Subsequently, in a second step, the mounting can be finally adapted to the frame thickness by moving the mounting parts toward one another in the adjustment direction and thereby adjusting the locking elements. To ensure a secure connection between the two mounting parts, the mounting preferably has centering means for centering the mounting parts relative to one another transversely to the adjustment direction.The centering means can, for example, be designed as a projection formed integrally with one of the holding parts and a recess in the other holding part which cooperates with the projection for centering purposes.
[0034] In a further preferred embodiment, the first mounting part and the second mounting part each have at least one first locking plane with at least one first of the respective locking elements, and at least one second locking plane with at least one second of the respective locking elements. In particular, at least one of the mounting parts has multiple locking elements per locking plane. The connection of the mounting parts to one another is thus particularly secure.
[0035] Preferably, at least one of the mounting parts forms a section for contact with the frame on a side of the frame lying in the adjustment direction, wherein the section is designed to be elastically bendable, in particular wherein the mounting parts can be braced against the frame by elastically bending the section in the mounted position of the mounting for clamping connection to the frame. The bracing is achieved in particular by elastically bending the section relative to another part of the mounting. Before bracing, the section is arranged at an angle, in particular to the frame side, and after bracing is angled at least to a lesser extent to the frame, in particular arranged parallel to the frame.Preferably, the angle between the connecting section forming the fastening stop and the section to be bent before clamping is less than 90 degrees, preferably 50 to 89 degrees, particularly preferably 60 to 89 degrees, and even more particularly preferably 70 to 89 degrees. This ensures a tight fit of the bracket on the frame. Relative movements between the bracket and the frame and the resulting noise are reduced.
[0036] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the first holding part and the second holding part can be displaced relative to one another in a direction transverse to the adjustment direction in order to release them from one another when the holder is in the mounted position. The holder then has at least one limiting element, designed in particular as a projection of one of the holding parts and / or as a separate holding element of the holder, for limiting unwanted displacement of the holding parts relative to one another in this direction. The locking elements, which are present in particular, generally only limit displacement in one direction, here in the adjustment direction. To prevent or at least limit unwanted detachment of the two holding parts from one another, it is therefore advantageous to provide such a limiting element.
[0037] A limiting element designed as a projection can be formed as a section of at least one of the holding parts that projects transversely to the adjustment direction. The projection can be arranged on at least one, in particular both, of the holding parts at a respective end of the holding part that lies transversely to the adjustment direction. In the mounted position of the holder, the projection projects in particular in a direction directed towards the center of the window frame and thus covers the other holding part in this direction, at least in regions. The movement of this holding part is thus limited. In the case of an elastically deformable holder, the limitation created by the projection can be overcome by applying a certain force and the holding parts can then be released from one another.
[0038] A limiting element designed as a separate holding element preferably surrounds both holding parts, in particular in the connecting section of the holder, on at least three sides. It can also surround the holding parts at least in sections on a fourth side lying transversely to the adjustment direction. For this purpose, the holding element can be designed, for example, to be C-, U-, O-shaped or similar in cross-section. However, a holding element with an open, i.e., approximately C-shaped, circumference has the advantage that it can be assembled and disassembled particularly easily. For this purpose, the holding element is designed, in particular, to be elastically deformable and is preferably made of a plastic.
[0039] Preferably, the holder is made of a plastic, for example, polyurethane. This allows the above-described features, which depend on the elasticity of the holder, to be easily implemented.
[0040] The bracket is manufactured primarily by deep drawing or injection molding. This makes it relatively simple and cost-effective to manufacture.
[0041] The sun, insect, rodent, dust, and / or pollen protection device according to the invention comprises a surface element for covering a window or door and at least one bracket of one of the previously described embodiments for attaching the surface element to a frame of the window or door. Thus, the sun, insect, rodent, dust, and / or pollen protection device benefits from the advantages described above in connection with the bracket.
[0042] Further advantages and details of the invention can be found in the following description of the figures.
[0043] The figures show schematically: Fig. 1 a front view of a window with a sun, insect, rodent, dust and / or pollen protection device according to the invention and a holder according to the invention, Fig. 2 a sectional view of the article from Fig. 1 according to line II-II from Fig. 1 , Fig. 3 a detailed view of the object from Fig. 2 according to Detail III Fig. 2 , Fig. 4 a perspective view of a further embodiment of a first holding part of a holder according to the invention, Fig. 5 a side view of the first holding part of Fig. 4 , Fig. 6 a perspective view of a further embodiment of a first holding part of a holder according to the invention, Fig. 7 a side view of the first holding part of Fig. 6 , Fig. 8 a perspective view of a further embodiment of a first holding part of a holder according to the invention, Fig. 9 a side view of the first holding part of Fig. 8, Fig. 10 a perspective view of a further embodiment of a first holding part of a holder according to the invention, Fig. 11 a side view of the first holding part of Fig. 10 , Fig. 12 a perspective view of a further embodiment of a second holding part of a holder according to the invention, Fig. 13 a side view of the second holding part of Fig. 12 , Fig. 14 a perspective view of a further embodiment of a second holding part of a holder according to the invention, Fig. 15 a side view of the second holding part of Fig. 14 , Fig. 16 a perspective view of a further embodiment of a second holding part of a holder according to the invention, Fig. 17 a side view of the second holding part of Fig. 16, Fig. 18 a perspective view of a further embodiment of a second holding part of a holder according to the invention, Fig. 19 a side view of the second holding part of Fig. 18 , Fig. 20 a side view of another embodiment of a holder according to the invention and Fig. 21 a perspective view of the holder from Fig. 20 .
[0044] Parts with the same or similar functions are provided with identical reference numerals where appropriate. The features and details of the invention described below may also be incorporated into the invention in combinations other than those shown in the exemplary embodiments.
[0045] Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show a window 10 with a frame 8 and a window sash 13 (cf. Fig. 2). A sun, insect, rodent, dust, and / or pollen protection device 6, comprising a surface element 4 and, in this case, a plurality of brackets 2, is attached to the frame 8 by means of the brackets 2. In this case, two brackets 2 are provided on each circumferential side of the surface element, thus a total of eight brackets 2.
[0046] Fig. 3shows in detail one of the brackets 2 for fastening the flatly extending surface element 4. In this case, the surface element 4 comprises a covering material designed as a protective grille 7 and a surface element frame 13 surrounding the protective grille 7. The surface element 4 is attached to the frame 8 of the window 10 by means of the bracket 2. The bracket 2 has a connecting area 12 for connection to the surface element 4 and forms a fastening space 14 into which a section 9 of the frame 8, in particular a frame web protruding towards the interior of the window, is to be inserted. The bracket 2 has a two-part structure with a separate first bracket part 16 and a separate second bracket part 18 which, in the illustrated, mounted position of the bracket 2, engages with the first bracket part 16.The first mounting part 16 and the second mounting part 18 are designed to be adjustable relative to one another in an adjustment direction 22 to adapt the mounting space 14 to different frame thicknesses 20. Thus, the mounting part 2 can be mounted easily and without damage and can be flexibly adapted to different frame thicknesses 20.
[0047] In the present case, the connecting area 12 forms a receiving space 24 into which a section 5 of the surface element 4 is to be inserted. The receiving space 24 is, as shown, in particular a receiving groove delimited by the first mounting part 16 on three sides 25, 27, 29. The first mounting part 16 forms a clip for connection to the surface element 4. This enables a damage-free connection of the mounting 2 to the surface element 4.
[0048] In this case, the first mounting part 16 forms a receiving stop 26 delimiting the receiving space 24, up to which the surface element 4 is to be inserted in its insertion direction 3 through a receiving opening 32 of the receiving space 24 opposite the receiving stop 26. Thus, in the mounted position, the surface element 4 rests against the receiving stop 26 and in a defined position.
[0049] The fastening space 14 is a fastening groove defined on three sides 15, 17, 19 and by both the first mounting part 16 and the second mounting part 18. Thus, the bracket 2 can be placed on the web of the frame 8 using this fastening groove for easy assembly with the frame 8.
[0050] The fastening space 14 is limited on its central side 17 by a fastening stop 38, up to which the frame 8 is to be inserted in its insertion direction 30 through an insertion opening 40 of the fastening space 14 opposite the fastening stop 38.
[0051] The receiving opening 32 of the receiving space 24 and the insertion opening 40 of the fastening space 14 are arranged on opposite sides 42, 44 of the holder 2 for easy assembly of the holder 2.
[0052] The fastening space 14 is delimited on a first side 46 by the first support part 16 and on a second side 48 opposite the first side 46 by the second support part 18. Thus, the extent of the fastening space 14 in the adjustment direction 22 can be easily influenced by the position of the support parts 16, 18 relative to one another.
[0053] The first mounting part 16 and the second mounting part 18 can be slidably connected to one another in the adjustment direction 22 to adapt the mounting space 14 to different frame thicknesses 20. Thus, the position of the mounting parts 16, 18 relative to one another can be easily changed.
[0054] The second mounting part 18 has a holding arm 50 extending transversely to the adjustment direction 22, which, in the mounted position of the mounting 2, is designed to engage over the frame 8 on its side 52 facing away from the surface element 4. This easily achieves a positive connection between the mounting 2 and the frame 8.
[0055] A portion 51 of the retaining arm 50 protrudes relative to a remainder 53 of the retaining arm 50 in a direction 55 directed toward the center of the mounting space 14. In particular, the portion 51 is designed to at least partially encompass a seal 54 arranged on the inside of the frame 8, in particular a stop seal for the window sash 11, when the bracket 2 is in the mounted position. In the present case, the portion 51 of the retaining arm 50 is curved toward the interior of the mounting space 14. The connection between the bracket 2 and the frame 8 is thus particularly secure.
[0056] The security of the connection between the bracket 2 and the frame 8 can be further improved by the holding arm 50, as in Fig. 12 and Fig. 13shown, has at least one projection 58 designed as a rib on its side 56 facing the fastening space 14 for improved connection to the frame 8. Alternatively or additionally, the second holding part 18 can have an additional bend 59 for at least partially engaging behind the seal 54. In the present case, the bend 59 is arranged at one end of the holding arm 50 and is connected to the seal 54 (cf. Fig. 3 ) directed wall.
[0057] The Fig. 3The fastening stop 38 shown is formed by a connecting section 60 of the holder 2, in which the first holder part 16 and the second holder part 18 are connected to one another in a locking and adjustably manner. The connecting section 60 extends with its longitudinal extent in the adjustment direction 22. In this connecting section 60, one of the holder parts 16, 18 forms a guide for the other of the holder parts 16, 18, wherein one of the holder parts 16, 18 partially engages the other of the holder parts 16, 18 for secure connection to one another. In the present case, the second holder part 18 engages the first holder part 16, in particular also the second locking elements 64 of the first holder part 16, which engage with the second holder part 18, in the connecting section 60.
[0058] One of the mounting parts 16, 18, in this case the second mounting part 18, has at least one first locking element 62 formed integrally therewith. For an adjustably locking connection with this first locking element 62, the other of the mounting parts 16, 18, in this case the first mounting part 16, has a plurality of second locking elements 64 formed integrally therewith. Thus, depending on which of the second locking elements 64 engages with the first locking element 62, different positions of the mounting parts 16, 18 relative to one another and thus different extensions of the fastening space 14 in the adjustment direction 22 can be realized.
[0059] At least one of the mounting parts 16, 18 forms a section 70 for contact with the frame 8 on a side 72 of the frame 8 located in the adjustment direction 22, wherein the section 70 is designed to be elastically bendable. For easy bending, the section 70 is connected to the rest of the mounting part 16 via a circular segment- or circular arc-shaped bending section 73. The mounting parts 16, 18 can thus be clamped against the frame 8, particularly in the mounted position of the mounting 2, for a clamping connection to the frame 8 by elastically bending the section 70. For this purpose, for example, by manually pressing the mounting parts 16, 18 together in the adjustment direction 22, an angle 80 between section 70 and connecting section 60 can be increased, and at the same time an angle between section 70 and the side 72 of the frame 8 can be reduced.The connection is therefore movement and noise reduced and comparatively secure.
[0060] Fig. 4 and 5 show an embodiment of a first holding part 16 with a constriction 36 of the receiving space 24 for fixing the surface element 4 (cf. Fig. 3 ) in the assembled position. The constriction 36 is formed by bulges 37 in the parts of the first holding part 16 that delimit the receiving space 24. The bulges 37 are directed towards the interior of the receiving space 24 and narrow the receiving space 24 in certain regions. Thus, the surface element 4, which in some sections has an extension in this direction that exceeds the size of the constriction 36 in the adjustment direction 22, in particular the surface element frame thickness, is held in the mounted position in the receiving space 24 by the bulges 37. The surface element frame 13 is thus held in the receiving space 24.
[0061] Alternatively or in addition to the Fig. 4 and 5shown embodiment, the constriction 36, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7 shown, are formed by webs 39 projecting into the receiving space 24. The webs 39 are inclined in the insertion direction 3 of the surface element 4, so that insertion of the surface element 4 is facilitated and detachment of the first holding part 16 from the surface element 4 counter to the insertion direction 3 is made more difficult.
[0062] The mounting part 16, 18, in this case the first mounting part 16, which has a plurality of second locking elements 64 formed integrally therewith, is designed to be shortenable in the adjustment direction 22. For this purpose, the second locking elements 64 are arranged at an end of the first mounting part 16 lying in the adjustment direction 22. In addition, the first mounting part 16 in this case has at least one separating aid 74 designed as a notch. The separating aid 74 is arranged between two second locking elements 64 in the adjustment direction 22. This allows the first mounting part 16 to be easily shortened at the point marked by the separating aid 74. The mounting 2 can thus be flexibly adapted to relatively small frame thicknesses. Figs. 8 and 9show a further embodiment of a first mounting part 16 with an additional stiffening base 34 arranged parallel to the receiving stop 26 and stiffening the receiving stop 26. Thus, the part of the first mounting part 16 forming the receiving space 24 is particularly stable. Alternatively or additionally, the outer side, which is connected to the frame 8 (cf. Fig. 3 ) in the mounted position facing away from the side 29 of the receiving space 24 has an increased wall thickness relative to the rest of the holder 2.
[0063] As in Figs. 10 and 11 As shown in Figures 14 to 19, the first mounting part 16 and the second mounting part 18 each have at least one first locking plane 66 with at least one first of the respective locking elements 62, 64 and at least one second locking plane 68 with at least one second of the respective locking elements 62, 64. The connection of the mounting parts to one another is thus particularly secure.
[0064] Figs. 10 and 11 show an embodiment of a first holding part 16 with a central web 76 running in the adjustment direction 22 and two locking planes 66, 68 arranged on opposite sides of the central web 76. Each of the locking planes has a plurality of second locking elements 64.
[0065] In addition, the first holding part has a support element 78 which is formed in one piece therewith and is designed in particular as a web for resting on the frame 8 (cf. Fig. 3 ) on its side parallel to the adjustment direction 22. Thus, both mounting parts 16, 18 preferably have a defined stop on the frame 8 transverse to the adjustment direction 22.
[0066] At the Figs. 14 and 15In the embodiment of a second mounting part 18 shown, a first locking element 62 is provided for each locking plane 66, 68. For this purpose, the second mounting part 18 has two walls arranged parallel to one another, each of which forms one of the locking planes 66, 68. The first locking elements 62 of the locking planes 66, 68 face one another. Thus, for a simple connection of the mounting parts 16, 18, the first mounting part 16 can be arranged between the two walls of the second mounting part 18.
[0067] The Figs. 16 and 17 show a further second mounting part 18 with a plurality of locking planes 66, 68, wherein at least one of the locking planes 66, 68, in this case the second locking plane 68, has a plurality of first locking elements 62. As shown, the first locking elements 62 can be arranged spaced apart from one another in the adjustment direction 22 such that, in the mounted position of the mounting 2, at least one of the second locking elements 64 (cf. Fig. 3) is arranged therebetween and is not engaged with the first locking elements 62.
[0068] Figs. 18 and 19 show a further second support part 18 with several locking planes 66, 68, wherein each of the locking planes 66, 68 has a plurality of first locking elements 62. The connection of the support parts 16, 18 to one another is thus particularly secure.
[0069] Figs. 20 and 21 show a further embodiment of a holder 2 according to the invention with a first holder part 16 and a second holder part 18. For form-fitting adaptation to surface elements 4 with a surface element frame 13 of circular cross-section (cf. Fig. 3) a boundary section 82 of the first mounting part 16, which here runs in a circular arc shape, forms a receiving space 24 with a circular arc-shaped boundary or contour in cross-section. At the outer end of the boundary section 82 in the adjustment direction 22, i.e. the end facing away from the frame 8, the latter has a handle section 84. This handle section 84 serves both as an insertion ramp for the careful insertion of the surface element 4 into the receiving space 24 and for enlarging a surface in contact with the surface element 4, whereby the surface element 4 is protected from damage. At a section of the first mounting part 16, which is to be arranged in particular parallel to the surface element 4, from which section a support element 78 extends in the direction directed towards the fastening space 14, the first mounting part 16 has, in the present case, on the side facing the receiving space 24, i.e.The side facing away from the fastening space 14 has a taper and is thus designed to be particularly material-saving.
[0070] The second holding part 18 has a holding arm 50 which is curved in this case and which is designed to at least partially encompass a seal 54 arranged on the inside of the frame 8 (cf. Fig. 3 ) in the mounted position of the bracket 2, increasingly extends in a direction directed toward the center of the fastening space 14, and is particularly curved in this direction. At its end, the holding arm 50 has several, here four, projections 58 for improved grip on the seal 54. This ensures that the bracket 2 fits particularly securely on the frame 8.
[0071] In a connecting section 60, the holder 2 has Figs. 20 and 21 a limiting element 86 designed as a separate holding element of the holder 2 (for improved clarity in Fig. 20(shown transparently) to limit any unwanted displacement of the mounting parts 16, 18 relative to one another transversely to the adjustment direction 22 and parallel to the frame profile. The limiting element 86 is designed here as an approximately C-shaped clip and encloses the mounting parts 16, 18 on four sides, here at the top, left, right, and in sections at the bottom.
[0072] In Fig. 20It can also be seen that the second mounting part 18 here has a web running in the adjustment direction 22, in particular a curved or arcuate web, which engages over the first mounting part 16 in the connecting section 60, in particular on the side facing the center of the frame 8. Thus, the mounting 2 is seamless and advantageously smooth in a contact area with a door or window sash. Furthermore, in the present case, the first mounting part 16 is formed with a greater material thickness, in particular a wall thickness, relative to the second mounting part 18, in particular at least in the limiting section 82, and is thus advantageously designed with regard to the loads occurring during operation of the mounting 2.
