Description

[0001] Balcony, building with this balcony and method for installing this balcony

[0002] Technical area

[0003] The invention relates to a building, a method and a balcony for a window in a building wall of this building, with a plate, with at least one support element provided below the plate and, in particular, movable relative to this, for supporting the balcony on the outside of the building, in particular on the outside of the building wall and / or on the outside of the window frame of the window, and with a tensioning device for fastening the balcony.

[0004] State of the art

[0005] Balconies for mounting on an open window in a building wall as an external wall are known from the prior art (US4445459A), which are also referred to as mobile balconies, for example due to their use for cats, also as mobile cat balconies. These balconies have a panel that can be provided on a window frame, which is supported in position by a variety of support elements. This can be done, for example, with a support element provided below the panel and movable relative to it for supporting the balcony on the outside of a window frame or on the outside of the building wall. In addition, such balconies have several clamping devices - such as screw clamps - with which the balcony can be attached, for example on the inside to a windowsill of the window.

[0006] The disadvantage of such balconies is their relatively complex design and their handling. In particular, the successive provision of several screw clamps poses the risk of an unintentional fall of the not yet fully secured balcony, which can lead to a high risk of injury or accident. Description of the invention

[0007] The invention therefore aims to simplify the construction and handling of a balcony of the type described above. Furthermore, the installed balcony should be safe to use.

[0008] The invention solves the problem by the features of claim 1.

[0009] By having the tensioning device with at least one stop provided below the plate for supporting the balcony on the inside of the building, namely on the inside of the window frame, another option for supporting the balcony on the window is created. This is particularly advantageous because it allows the support element and stop to be used to attach the balcony. The tensioning device also has a tension element that is mechanically connected to the support element and / or the stop in order to brace the stop and the support element against each other to attach the balcony to the building. This creates a structurally simple solution that also provides a stable attachment of the balcony to the window with a single movement. The balcony according to the invention can therefore be installed safely, in contrast to the prior art.This can be done quickly and without interfering with the building structure.

[0010] Handling the balcony during assembly and / or disassembly can be further simplified if the stop is firmly connected to the panel and if the tension element is mechanically connected to the support element. For example, the support element can be moved relative to the panel, allowing the stop and support element to be clamped against each other, for example, on the window frame.

[0011] Preferably, the tension element comprises a cable and a tensioner that tightens the cable, for example, to further facilitate handling of the balcony by reducing the weight of the mechanical coupling, which is particularly advantageous for assembly and disassembly. The tensioner can, for example, be a cable ratchet to further simplify the construction.

[0012] For example, the mechanism for operating the tensioning device on the balcony may be less important if the rope runs below the surface of the slab at least in part and / or if the tensioner is arranged in an edge area of ​​the slab.

[0013] If the support element is mounted on a carriage that is movably mounted on the panel via a linear guide, the clamping of the stop and clamping element can be achieved with comparatively high clamping forces. This allows for a mechanically extremely resilient balcony attachment. It is conceivable for the support element to be movably mounted on the carriage and relative to it, for example, via at least one first pivot joint.

[0014] If the carriage can be tensioned by the tensioning device against a spring force, in particular a tension spring, this can further facilitate the dismantling of the balcony - in addition, the spring force contributes to the carriage being moved by the tensioning device against or with the spring force, which can, among other things, further facilitate the movement sequence of the assembly and dismantling of the balcony.

[0015] For example, the support element has at least two individual supports that are inclined relative to each other to further improve support. The individual supports are preferably inclined at a 45-degree angle to each other, which ensures a more even distribution of force across the bearing points / bearing surfaces and can, for example, prevent damage there.

[0016] This anchoring of the balcony to the interior geometry of the window frame can be further improved if the stop, especially an L-shaped one, has at least two offset stop surfaces for a lower rebate of the window frame and for an inner side of the window frame. The balcony can therefore be clamped to the window frame with exceptional stability.

[0017] As an alternative to a cable and a tensioner, it is conceivable for the tension element to have a first bar with at least one locking element and at least one counter-locking element that interacts with the locking element, thereby clamping the stop and the support element against each other. This can be done quickly, easily, and reliably thanks to the locking mechanism, which can further increase the handling and stability of the balcony.

[0018] It is conceivable that this bar with the locking element could be a first toothed bar, for example. It is also conceivable that the counter-locking element could be provided on a second bar, which could also be a second toothed bar, for example.

[0019] For example, the counter-locking element is firmly connected to the plate and / or the stop or is formed by it. For example, the strip is firmly connected to the support element or is formed by it. This allows the support element to be moved via the strip in order to clamp the stop and support element against each other, for example, on the window frame.

[0020] Preferably, the locking mechanism can exert comparatively high unlocking forces on the clamped state between the stop and the support element if the counter-locking element is provided on a receptacle for the first bar. Handling the locking mechanism can be facilitated, for example, if a laterally open receptacle has two longitudinal legs between which the first bar is guided.

[0021] It is conceivable that the receptacle has the counter-locking element on the inside of a longitudinal leg, in particular that this longitudinal leg forms the second bar, in order to make the locking process more reliable and / or further simplify the construction. The latter can be achieved by this longitudinal leg forming the second bar, for example, forming it in one piece. For example, the handling of the locking mechanism can be further facilitated if a longitudinal leg, in particular one free of a counter-locking element, is designed to be bendable for the locking process between the locking element and the counter-locking element. This allows the selection of the locking point to be adjusted quickly and reliably in order to ensure a sufficiently high clamping force between the stop and the support element.

[0022] It is conceivable that the support element is or are connected to the first strip and / or the stop is or are connected to the counter-locking element, in particular the second strip, in particular by merging or merging in one piece, in order to further simplify the construction of the balcony. Furthermore, this construction can also further improve its stability.

[0023] The clamping of the stop and support element to the window frame can be achieved regardless of the profile if the stop and / or the support element each have a web with comb-like support legs on the web. This increased number of support legs ensures contact with a wide variety of window frames, which improves the versatility of the balcony. This is even more so if the support legs are designed to run parallel. It is also conceivable for these support legs to be of unequal length. It is also conceivable for the support legs to be flexible. The support legs are preferably made of plastic.

[0024] It is conceivable that the stop and the support element form a U-shaped clamp via the tension element, the width of which can be adjusted via the tension element in order to further simplify the construction and make the handling of the balcony easier.

[0025] The safety of the balcony can be further improved if, in addition to its attachment to the building, the balcony also features an assembly comprising a support element and a tensioning device with a stop and a tension element for bracing the stop and support element against each other. This assembly is arranged laterally to and / or above the slab. This additional assembly can further improve the attachment of the balcony to the window frame and withstand even high force loads more reliably. This is especially true if these additional assemblies are provided laterally on both sides and also above the slab.

[0026] The balcony can also be further secured to the window if it has at least two telescopic supports, each located on the side of the panel, to provide additional support to the window frame. This can, for example, represent an initial securing measure for the balcony to the window frame and thus further facilitate the bracing of the stop and the support element against each other.

[0027] It is conceivable that the telescopic supports each have a base at one end for insertion into a lower rebate of the window frame.

[0028] Alternatively or additionally, the telescopic supports can each have at least one support head at another end for insertion into an upper rebate of the window frame. This allows the balcony to be securely anchored to the interior geometry of the window frame.

[0029] The base and / or the support head are preferably T-shaped in cross-section.

[0030] The fastening of the balcony can be improved, for example, if the balcony has at least one telescopic support provided above the plate in order to provide additional support for the balcony on the window frame. The telescopic supports, which are connected via pivot joints, are designed to be connectable to the plate together with the plate to form a closed frame on the window frame. The balcony therefore adjoins the window frame in the form of an inner frame, which further improves the stability of the fastening to the window. Preferably, at least one lateral telescopic support is movable relative to the plate via a telescopic horizontal guide, in particular on the plate, in order to be able to extend it according to the width of the window frame. This can further facilitate the assembly and fastening of the balcony.

[0031] Preferably, two telescopic horizontal guides are provided on the panel, which can further facilitate the positioning of the panel on the window and thus the installation and fastening of the balcony.

[0032] It is conceivable that, to form the frame, a lateral telescopic support can be connected to a telescopic horizontal guide via a detachable connection.

[0033] For example, the assembly of the balcony can be further facilitated by having at least two panel sections connected to each other via a second pivot joint, as well as at least one locking element. The locking element is designed to fix the two panel sections at at least one pivot angle, in particular 180 degrees, relative to each other. Furthermore, this allows the balcony to be converted into a compact size when not assembled, which further facilitates its storage.

[0034] A stable locking of the plate parts to one another can be achieved if the locking element has a slider displaceably mounted on the first plate part and a hollow profile fastened to the second plate part, wherein the slider is designed to run into the hollow profile for locking.

[0035] A simple design solution for the installed balcony also provides fall protection by including a mesh netting between the telescopic supports and the slab. This arrangement of the mesh netting also allows for easy tensioning during installation. If the netting is connected to the telescopic supports along their entire length and to one edge of the slab section that protrudes from the telescopic supports, this can close off the balcony from the outside and thus ensure safe use.

[0036] The balcony according to the invention is preferably suitable for a building with one window.

[0037] The invention also has the object of simplifying a method for attaching a balcony to an open window in a building wall of a building.

[0038] The invention solves the problem by the features of claim 26.

[0039] Easy handling can be achieved when using the balcony according to the invention if it is inserted into a window frame of the open window and detachably attached to the building.

[0040] The process can be further simplified with the following steps in the order given:

[0041] First, at least one stop is attached to the window frame, for example the lower rebate, of the open window.

[0042] Then, if necessary, the position of the telescopic supports relative to the slab is adjusted to the window opening width using at least one telescopic horizontal guide. This allows the balcony to be supported across the entire window width.

[0043] The length of the telescopic supports is then adjusted to the height of the window frame of the open window.

[0044] The stop, which is located on the inside of the window frame, is then clamped together with the support element, which is located on the outside of the building, using the clamping device. For this purpose, the support element can, for example, be located on the outside of the building wall and / or on the outside of the window frame. Furthermore, the stop, for example, can be located on the inside of the window frame.

[0045] This means that the balcony is mounted on the building in a relatively easy-to-handle manner - and can also be removed again in the reverse order.

[0046] It is also conceivable that the telescopic supports could be anchored in the rebate of the window frame. Alternatively, it could be conceivable that the telescopic supports and the panel could be connected to the window frame of the open window to form a closed frame.

[0047] In addition, the panel parts can be folded out and fixed to each other using the locking element at a 180-degree swivel angle in order to create an enlarged, flat platform for the balcony.

[0059] Ways to implement the invention

[0060] Figures 1 to 5, for example, show a balcony 1 according to a first exemplary embodiment. The balcony 1 is arranged at an open window 2, namely a window 2 with an open window sash 2a, in a building wall 3, namely the exterior wall, of a building 14. The building wall 3 has a masonry 3a and, on its exterior, thermal insulation 3b. Such a balcony 1 is often also referred to as a mobile balcony, since it can be mounted and dismounted on the building 14. The balcony 1 can be used as a balcony for cats—such a balcony 1 is often also referred to as a, for example, mobile, cat balcony.

[0061] For the arrangement of the balcony 1, it has a plate 4, a support element 5 and a tensioning device 6.

[0062] The plate 4 serves as a load-bearing, flat support element of the balcony 1 and, as can be seen in Fig. 1, projects outward from the building wall 3 with its free end 4b. The plate 4 is depicted as rectangular, but other geometries are also conceivable, although not shown. For example, the plate 4 can be rounded at the inwardly and / or outwardly projecting ends 4a, 4b. The plate 4 serves as a stepping surface and / or a lying area for a cat.

[0063] The support element 5 is provided below the plate 4 and is movably mounted relative to this plate 4. This support element 5 serves to support the balcony 1 on the outside of the building 14, namely, in the embodiment according to Fig. 1a, on the outside of the building wall 3 or, according to Fig. 1b, on the outside of the window frame 10 (often referred to as the frame) of the window 2.

[0064] The tensioning device 6 is used to fasten the balcony so that it can be securely arranged on the open window 2.

[0065] This is achieved according to the invention in that the tensioning device 6 has two stops 8 and a tension element 9 with which the balcony 1 is clamped against each other between the stop 8 and the support element 5 in order to fasten the balcony 1 to the building 14.

[0066] Thus, according to Fig. 1a, balcony 1 is braced between window frame 10 (often referred to as the frame) of window 2 and the outer building wall 3 of building 14 to keep it stable and sturdy in the installed position. According to Fig. 1b, as an alternative to Fig. 1a, balcony 1 is braced to the window frame 10 of window 2 to keep it stable and sturdy in the installed position.

[0067] For this purpose, the stops 8 provided below the plate 4 serve to support the balcony inside the building 14, namely inside the lower window frame 10 of the window 2. The stops 8 are firmly connected to the plate 4 and thus fixed in their position on the plate 4. The stops 8 are arranged along a common straight line that runs transversely to the longitudinal direction L of the plate 4.

[0068] In addition, the tension element 9 of the clamping device 6 is mechanically connected to the support element 5 for its movement in the direction of the stops 8. For this purpose, the tension element 9 is mechanically connected directly to a carriage 12, which is movably mounted on the underside of the plate 4 via a linear guide 13. The support element 5 is mounted on the carriage 12 via two first pivot joints 7, allowing it to be folded in the direction of rotation D.

[0069] According to the mechanically applied tensile force, the carriage 12 is moved in the direction of the stops 8 and is directed in the longitudinal direction L of the plate toward these stops 8. This allows the stops 8 and the support element 5 to be clamped against each other in a user-friendly manner in order to clamp the balcony 1 to the support inside the building 14, namely inside the window frame 10 of the window 2, and outside the building, either to the building wall 3 according to Fig. 1 a or outside the window frame 10 of the window according to Fig. 1 b, and thus to fasten it to the building 14.

[0070] The balcony 1 according to the invention is therefore not only securely mounted but also easy to handle.

[0071] The tension element 9 has a simple design and comprises a cable 9a and a tensioner 9b that tightens the cable 9a, which is preferably designed as a cable ratchet, as shown in Fig. 2. The cable 9a enters the tensioner 9b at one end and is directly and firmly connected to the slide 12 at the other end. This makes it possible to hold the balcony 1 firmly against the window with one hand and to fasten or release the balcony with the other hand by operating the cable ratchet. This considerably simplifies assembly and / or disassembly.

[0072] The cable 9a also runs below the surface of the plate 4 and connects to the tensioner 9b, which is arranged in an edge region of the plate 4, namely at its freely inwardly projecting end 4a.

[0073] The carriage 12 can be tensioned by the tensioning device 6 against the spring force of a tension spring 11. This tension spring 11 engages the carriage directly. Thus, when the balcony 1 is dismantled, the carriage 12 returns to its rest position, in which the support element 5 rests against the carriage 12. If the support element 5 is tensioned externally against the building wall 3 according to Fig. 1a or against the window frame 10 according to Fig. 1b, the tension spring 11 stretches in accordance with the tensioning force of the tensioning device 6 applied to the carriage 12.

[0074] Furthermore, it can be seen in Fig. 2 that the support element 5 has two individual supports 5a, 5b, which run at a 45 degree angle to one another and are each mounted on the carriage 12 via a pivot joint 7 of the two first pivot joints 7. In addition, the shape of the stops 8 gives the fastening of the balcony 1 improved stability. This is achieved in that the L-shaped stops 8 each have two stop surfaces 8a, 8b arranged offset from one another, as can be seen, for example, in Fig. 4. The first stop surface 8a rests vertically on the lower rebate 10a of the window frame 10. The second stop surface 8b rests horizontally on an inner side of the window frame 10. This enlarges the surface area for clamping to the window frame 10 and thus reduces the risk of damage to the window due to excessive surface pressure during clamping.

[0075] Balcony 1 is also secured against tilting at window 2. For this purpose, balcony 1 has two telescopic supports 15, 16 located on the sides of panel 4. By extending the telescopic supports 15, 16, they can be anchored to the upper window frame 10, as shown in Fig. 1. For this purpose, the telescopic supports 15, 16 each have a T-shaped support head 15b, 16b for insertion into the upper rebate 10b of the window frame 10.

[0076] At the lower end, the telescopic supports 15, 16 are each provided with a T-shaped base 15a, 16a, which can be inserted into the lower rebate 10a of the window frame 10. This braces the telescopic supports 15, 16 in the window frame 10.

[0077] The support heads 15b, 16b and the feet 15a, 16a can also be seen in particular in Fig. 5.

[0078] In addition, the telescopic supports 15, 16 are each provided so as to be horizontally movable relative to the plate 4. This allows the telescopic supports 15, 16 to be positioned accordingly to the width of the window frame 10. This improves the applicability of the balcony to a wide variety of window sizes, both in height (vertical) and width (horizontal), and thus increases its versatility. The balcony 1 can offer compact dimensions in that the plate 4 has at least two plate parts 4a, 4b connected to one another via a second pivot joint 17, as this allows the plate 4 to be folded together. To ensure that the plate 4 remains stable in the unfolded position, it has a locking element 19 with which the two plate parts 4a, 4b can be fixed at at least a 180-degree pivot angle to one another.The split plate 4 also offers the advantage that the center of gravity of the balcony is located near the window frame during assembly, making it easier to handle. This also facilitates bracing the telescopic supports 15, 16 before the balcony is secured using the tensioning device 6.

[0079] For this purpose, the locking element 19 comprises a slider 18 slidably mounted on the first plate part 4a and a hollow profile attached to the second plate part 4b. The slider 18 is designed to extend into the hollow profile for locking. In the rest position, the slider 18 is entirely located in the first plate part 4a and, in the inserted and thus locked position, half of the slider 18 is located in each of the first and second plate parts 4a, 4b, as shown in Fig. 1a.

[0080] In addition, the balcony 1 has a net 20, namely a grid net 20. The net 20 is arranged between telescopic supports 15, 16 and plate 4 and delimits the balcony 1 to the outside, thus forming a fall protection device.

[0081] For this purpose, the net 20—as can be seen in the figures—connects, on the one hand, to the telescopic supports 15, 16 along their entire length and, on the other hand, to a panel edge, running completely along the section of panel 4 that projects beyond the telescopic supports 15, 16. This completely closes off the open window 2 and also the balcony 1 to the outside.

[0082] Balcony 1, for example, can be constructed in the following steps:

[0083] First, you start by inserting the balcony into the window frame of the open window 2. This is followed by adjusting the telescopic supports 15, 16, which are arranged to the left and right of the plate 4, to the window opening or in the window frame 10 of the open window 2. To do this, these telescopic supports 15, 16 are first extended horizontally either to the left or right and then vertically upwards and clamped to the window frame 10. The plate parts 4a, 4b are then folded out and fixed in the pivoted position at a pivot angle of 180 degrees to one another via the locking element 19.

[0084] Then, the fixed stops 8 and the support element 5, which is movable towards them, are clamped against each other by means of the clamping device 6. This also spreads the support element 5 against its spring load.

[0085] This ensures a stable and simple installation. Disassembly of Balcony 1 is carried out in the reverse order of assembly. This creates a mobile Balcony 1 that is easy to assemble and disassemble.

[0086] Figures 6 to 10 show a balcony 101, for example, also a cat balcony, according to a second embodiment. This balcony 101 differs from the balcony 1 according to the first embodiment essentially in the assembly 150 for attaching the balcony 101 to the window frame 10. This assembly 150 consists of a support element 105 and a tensioning device 106 with a stop 108 and a tension element 109, with which the stop 108 and the support element 105 can be tensioned against each other.

[0087] The plate 4, which has normally angled ends, also serves here as a load-bearing, flat support element of the balcony 101 and, as can be seen in Fig. 1, projects beyond the window frame 10 on both sides. Here, too, the support element 105 is provided below the plate 4 and is movably mounted relative to this plate 4. This support element 105 serves to support the balcony 101 on the outside of the window frame 10 (often referred to as the frame) of the window 2. The stop 108, arranged transversely to the longitudinal direction L of the plate 4, is firmly connected to the plate 4 and thus fixed in its position on the plate 4. In addition, the tension element 109 is mechanically connected to the support element 105.

[0088] For this purpose, the tension element 109 has both a first bar 110 with several locking elements 111 in the form of a toothed bar and several counter-locking elements 112 in the form of a second toothed bar that interact with the locking elements 111. This creates a locking mechanism in the form of a U-shaped clamp, the mouth width of which can be adjusted via the tension element 109 in order to clamp the stop 108 and the support element 105 against one another. Here, too, the stop 108 is firmly connected to the plate 4. For clamping, the support element 105, which is movable relative to the plate 4, is pulled over the bar 110. Locking elements 111 and counter-locking elements 112 clamp the stop 108 and the support element 105 against one another. The balcony 101 according to the invention is therefore not only securely mounted but also easy to handle.

[0089] As can also be seen in detail in Fig. 7, the stop 106 forms a laterally open receptacle 113 with two opposing longitudinal legs 113a, 113b, in which receptacle 113 the first strip 110 is guided. The counter-locking elements 112 are also provided in the receptacle 113, specifically on a first longitudinal leg 113a, which thus forms the second strip, namely the toothed strip. This allows the bracing to be adjusted almost continuously by fixing the set mouth width between the stop 108 and the support element 105. Bracing is achieved, for example, by manually pushing the support element 105 towards the stop 108. This bracing can be released by manually pushing the support element 105 away from the stop 108. This allows the balcony 101 to be assembled and disassembled in a user-friendly manner.

[0090] The receptacle 113 is specially designed for this adjustment of the jaw width or the distance between the stop 108 and the support element 105. Specifically, the second longitudinal leg 113b is free of counter-locking elements 112, namely, it is smooth. Furthermore, the second longitudinal leg 113b is designed to be flexible. This allows the two toothed strips to be easily moved relative to each other, which facilitates handling. Furthermore, the locking force between the locking elements 111 and the counter-locking elements 112 can be adjusted depending on the flexural rigidity of the second longitudinal leg 113b. This ensures the secure attachment of the balcony 101 to the window frame 10.

[0091] The construction of the clamping device 106 is particularly simplified in that the support element 105 merges integrally into the first bar 110 together with the locking elements 111.

[0092] Support legs 106b, 105b ensure sufficient hold of the support element 105 and the stop 108 on the window frame 10.

[0093] Thus, a web 105a of the support element 105 is provided with several comb-like, parallel, unequal-length, and flexible support legs 105b. This allows the support element 105 to reproducibly adapt to any cross-sectional contour of the window frame 10.

[0094] The same applies to the stop 108, which also has a web 106a of the stop 108 provided with several comb-like, parallel, unequal-length and bendable support legs 106b.

[0095] The flexibility of the support legs 105b, 106b can be achieved, for example, by using plastic as their material. Stop 108 and support element 105 are designed to be mirror-symmetrical. For the sake of simplicity, these parts are made of plastic, for example.

[0096] In addition, the balcony 101 according to the second embodiment is additionally supported on the window frame 10 via three telescopic supports 115, 116, 117. Thus, two telescopic supports 115, 116 are arranged laterally of the panel 4, as is already known for the balcony 1 according to the first embodiment. In addition, however, the balcony 101 has a third telescopic support 117, which is arranged above the panel 4 and between the lateral telescopic supports 115, 116. The first lateral telescopic support 116 is connected via a pivot joint 126 to the upper third telescopic support 117, which is connected via another pivot joint 126 to the second lateral telescopic support 115. The first lateral telescopic support 116 is also connected to the panel 4 via a pivot joint 126. This allows the telescopic supports 115, 116, 117 together with the plate 4 to be connected to a closed frame 120 on the window frame 10 for mounting the balcony 101.

[0097] In this respect, the structure of balcony 101 differs from the structure of balcony 1 according to the first embodiment.

[0098] All three telescopic supports 115, 116, 117 also have at least one assembly 150, which has already been described for plate 4. This ensures that the balcony 101 is particularly firmly attached to the building 14. The aforementioned closed frame

[0099] 120 is particularly clearly visible in Figures 9 and 10.

[0100] This frame 120 is also easy to adapt to the window width by providing telescopic horizontal guides 21 on the panel, as already described for balcony 1 according to the first embodiment. In this embodiment, however, only the first lateral telescopic support 116 connects to a first horizontal guide 21 via the pivot bearing 126. The other, second lateral telescopic support 115 connects to a detachable connection shown in the diagram.

[0101] 121 to the second horizontal guide 21. This connection can be created when the second lateral telescopic support 115 is moved in direction L, as shown in Fig. 8.

[0102] In general, it is noted that "in particular" can be translated into English as "more particularly." A feature preceded by "in particular" is to be considered an optional feature that can be omitted and thus does not constitute a limitation, for example, of the claims. The same applies to "vorzugsweise," translated into English as "preferably."
