EXTERNAL ALUMINUM FRAME.

Description

DESCRIPTION Of the Utility Model Title: MARCHESE HP On behalf of: I NOBILI Srl With registered office at: SS 170 Km. 22,250 - Andria (BT) STRUCTURE The windows and doors will be built using aluminum / ABS / aluminum profiles from the I NOBILI Marchese HP series. The width of the fixed frame is 68 mm, while the overlapping sash of doors and windows measures 93 mm. The rebate of the aluminum profile of the fixed frame can be 22 mm. All profiles, both frame and sash, will consist of external aluminum profiles, with tubular ABS intermediate profiles, including in the insulation area, to ensure good mechanical resistance and good alignment for stable 45° and 90° joints. The assembly of the external aluminum profiles and intermediate ABS profiles will be carried out by mechanical rolling to ensure better resistance to sliding. ALUMINUM The external and internal profiles will be made using extruded EN AW 6060-T6 aluminum alloy, with thicknesses and dimensional tolerances compliant with the UNI EN 12020-2:2008 standard. They must be anodized or powder coated in RAL, metallic, and wood-colored colors. The connection between the aluminium profiles and the intermediate ABS profiles will be made using a special seat designed to accommodate the joint created on the ABS profile. ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) The intermediate insulation profiles will be made of ABS, one of the finest resin-elastomer blends. They comply with the EN 14024 standard, with thicknesses and dimensional tolerances compliant with the ISO 3302 standard. ABS is a copolymer derived from styrene polymerized with acrylonitrile in the presence of polybutadiene, and can therefore be defined as a thermopolymer. The proportions can vary from 15% to 35% acrylonitrile, 5% to 30% butadiene, and 40% to 60% styrene. It is easily recyclable and has excellent technical properties: it is, in fact, a light, rigid and tough material even at low temperatures. Acrylonitrile provides rigidity and surface hardness, resisting scratches, while Butadiene provides high impact resistance. ACCESSORIES The 45° aluminum / ABS corner joints will be made using special die-cast aluminum alloy crimping brackets, equipped with channels for proper distribution of the two-component polyurethane glue along the entire joint. The frame features a sturdy alignment bracket on the rebate fin, while the sash features an internal alignment bracket on the glass rebate fin. The T-joints will be made with self-tapping steel screws in the profile fixing locations. The system will involve the use of multi-point, galvanized perimeter strip hardware, mounted directly on the ABS profile. The secondary door, also of the multi-point type, can be closed with a lever rod. The movement and closing systems must be chosen based on the dimensions (width and height) and weight of the element, from those specified by the system manufacturer. The hinges have a load capacity of 100 kg per door (including glass) and can be adjusted along three orthogonal axes. The hinge covers will be available in the colors: polished brass, satin silver, white, ivory, satin gold or brown. SEALING, DRAINAGE AND VENTILATION The windows and doors will feature the so-called "open joint" sealing system, guaranteed by a central gasket with direct attachment to the frame at two points. The special profile design of the mobile sash, which approaches the frame, creates pressure on the central gasket. All frames, both fixed and opening, will be treated with the necessary processes to ensure water drainage around the glass and rapid moisture balance in the air surrounding the double-glazed unit. The aluminum / ABS frame profiles will have slightly sloped crosswalls to facilitate water drainage. Ventilation of the sash within the double-glazed unit must be achieved through drainage slots that allow moisture to escape. The drainage slots opening to the outside are staggered by 2050 mm from the slots in the inclined groove. Ventilation of the frame must also be achieved through slots that allow controlled drainage of any water that should appear in the inclined groove of the frame. On the outside, the slots in the frame are protected with special black or white slot covers. Meanwhile, in the fixed glazing frame, the ventilation slots in the double-glazed unit's containment area allow moisture to escape. The coupling between the external aluminium / ABS and the internal aluminium will take place via a connector and insulating element (screw-free interlocking nylon locking dowel), which allows the two types of materials to expand, freeing them from tension. GASKETS The window frame includes different types of gaskets, each with its own function and characteristics. The external frame-sash gasket, used to increase acoustic and thermal insulation and sealing, will be made of co-extruded EPDM. It will be inserted seamlessly into the profile, with a single joint cut. The profile attachment base, made of compact EPDM, will be black, while the visible sealing portion will be made of expanded EPDM. Available in black, brown, and white. The external window seal, which separates the infill panel from the aluminum frame by 4 mm, will be made of co-extruded EPDM. It will be inserted seamlessly into the profile, with a single joint cut. The profile attachment base will be made of black compact EPDM, and the gasket extension will be designed to improve the thermal insulation of the product. The visible sealing section will be made of expanded EPDM, available in black, brown, and white. The material is designed to avoid visual obstruction. The central gasket for the open joint seal will be made of compact ELAPRENE (heat-sealable thermoplastic elastomer) and will be available in Black, brown, and white colors. The central gasket will attach to the frame in two places. Its honeycomb structure will be designed to improve thermal insulation and hide the screws fixing the frame to the masonry or under-casing. It will be made in vulcanized frames with a continuous insertion, without any joint cuts. The central gasket has a 5.2 mm overlap, which allows for greater machining and adjustment tolerances. Furthermore, the external part is designed to cover the mating gap between the aluminum and ABS. The floor insulation gasket will be made of compact EPDM, slightly recessed on the outside to facilitate sealing. The internal seal between the door and frame, housed on the wooden frame of the door and used to increase the acoustic and thermal insulation and sealing of the window frame, will be made of co-extruded EPDM. The profile attachment base will be in black compact EPDM, while the visible sealing part will be in expanded EPDM, available in black, brown and white. GLASS The profiles will allow for the insertion of double glazing with a maximum thickness of 35 mm. Window with 5-25-BE4 double glazing with argon gas and thermally enhanced spacer. Balcony with 4BE-25-6 / 7 double glazing with argon gas and thermally enhanced spacer. The wooden door profiles must be shaped to support the internal PVC glass seal (brown, black, white, ivory, transparent), designed to allow optimal pressure between the double glazing and the profile. The double glazing supports will be made with a length of 100 mm and designed so as not to impede proper drainage and ventilation of the double glazing containment area.

Claims

CLAIMS Of the Utility Model Title: MARCHESE HP On behalf of: I NOBILI Srl With registered office at: SS 170 Km. 22,250 - Andria (BT) The new-generation MARCHESE HP series windows and doors feature a revolutionary aluminum-ABS-aluminum thermal break system. They represent a reliable, durable, and eco-friendly solution. The core of MARCHESE HP is made up of intermediate insulation profiles in ABS, one of the most valuable mixtures between a resin and an elastomer. ABS is a copolymer derived from styrene polymerized together with acrylonitrile in the presence of polybutadiene, and therefore can be defined as a thermopolymer. Acrylonitrile provides rigidity and surface hardness, resisting scratches, while Butadiene provides high impact resistance. I NOBILI is the first manufacturer in Italy to use intermediate ABS insulation profiles in the construction of window frames. The use of this material guarantees a significant reduction in the thermal transmittance value. The advantages of ABS are: • high impact resistance maintained almost unchanged when cold; • high heat resistance temperature; • good chemical resistance; • it is a non-hygroscopic product, meaning it does not absorb humidity.
