Aluminum window structure
Abstract
The present invention is a kind of joint structure in the
aluminum window, and in particular is designed for the awning typed
aluminum window. It is mainly to design an internally laid joint
plate with a simple structure to joint the window frames together
directly. It is different from the prior art that needs to add an
additional externally laid and large sized joint plate to joint the
adjacent window frames. It is not only achieve the purposes of the
large scaled material saving and also have the outside appearance
of the whole aluminum window become more concise and not too
disordered.

3. A joint structure for aluminum windows comprising: a first
vertical frame plate having a first side provided with two joint
grooves, and a sliding support bar arranged at a center of said
first side and between said first joint grooves; a second vertical
frame plate having a first side provided with two second joint
grooves, and a sliding support bar arranged at a center of said
first side and between said two joint grooves; and a joint plate
having two sides each provided with two joint bars and a support
sliding rail between said two joint bars, each of said joint bars
being adapted to engage with a respective one of said joint
grooves, said support sliding rail being adapted to engage with
said sliding support bar, said joint plate having two ends each
provided with an accommodating groove; and a leak proof rubber
fitted in said accommodating groove; wherein when said first
vertical frame plate is engaged with said joint plate which is then
engaged with said second vertical frame plate, said joint plate
will be hidden between said first and second vertical frame plates.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] Please refer to those shown in FIGS. 1, 2 that are structure
forms of ordinary awning typed aluminum window. It mainly joints
the glass frames 20 with the window frames 10 inwardly. While in
practical application, this kind of aluminum windows often are set
by adopting the forms of side by side or top-down-left-right
similar as the glass window curtain. And, the ordinary joint
assembling method is to further form a joint bar plate 13 on the
vertical frame plate 11 and horizontal frame plate 12 of the window
frame 10. While the window frames 10 are left-right side by side
assembled, an out laid vertical joint frame plate 30 is formed by
jointing the joint bars 13 on the vertical frame plates 11 of these
two window frames 10 as a whole. While the window frames 10 adopt
the top-down joint assembling, a horizontal joint frame plate 40 is
used by jointing the joint bars 13 on the horizontal vertical frame
plates 12 of these two window frames 10 together as a whole. Such
set up not only requires the extra joint bar 13, but have also the
larger volume in the said vertical and horizontal joint frame
plates 30, 40. Relatively, the used aluminum material becomes more
thus increases the cost. At the same time, because the out laid
joint method in the said vertical and horizontal joint plates 30,
40 is adopted, a complex sense of disorder has been created in the
whole outside appearance of frames after assembling. This kind of
assembling design is thus not an ideal one.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The present invention is to provide a kind of technology
improvement in the aluminum window structure, and in particular is
for the awning typed aluminum window, such that the improved
aluminum window structure can achieve not only the large scaled
material saving but also increase the sense of beauty in the
outside appearance of the window frames after joint assembling. The
characteristics and effects of the present invention will be
described hereafter in conjunction with the drawings.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0003] FIGS. 1 and 2 are joint assembly diagrams of window frames
in the prior art.
[0004] FIG. 3 is a structural diagram of a frame plate of the
window frame and a joint plate in the present invention.
[0005] FIG. 4 is a joint assembly diagram of a frame plate of the
window frame and a joint plate in the present invention.
[0006] FIGS. 5 and 6 are mutual joint-assembled configuration
diagrams of the window frames in the present invention.
[0007] FIG. 7 is a mutual joint-assembled configuration diagram of
the window frames in another embodiment.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0008] Please refer to FIG. 3. The major design point of the
present invention is in the vertical/horizontal frame plates 11, 12
of the window frame. Simultaneously, an internally laid joint plate
50 is designed. The said vertical/horizontal frame plates 11, 12
have the same structural design with a sliding support bar 111, 121
formed in the center of the outside plate surface of the frame
plates 111, 121. And, a joint groove 112, 122 is formed separately
on the plate surfaces in two sides of the sliding support bar 111,
121. A support sliding rail 51 is formed in the center of the
positive and negative plate surfaces of the joint plate 50, and
joint bars 52 are formed separately on the plate surfaces located
in two sides of the supporting slide rail 51 matched with the joint
groove 112, 122 at relative locations. And, an accommodating groove
53 is separately formed on the front and back end faces of the
joint plate. Through the conjugation between the supporting slide
bar 51, joint bar 52 in the joint plate 50, and the sliding support
bar 111, joint groove 112, 122 in the vertical and horizontal
frames 11, 12, these two frames 10 can be jointly assembled as a
whole in the left and right manner or top and down manner. And the
joint plate 50 can be hidden between these two jointed frames.
[0009] Please refer to those shown in FIGS. 4 to 6. The present
embodiment is described with assembly of the vertical frame 11 and
the joint plate 50 in the frame 10. The said supporting slide rail
51 has adopted a V typed design, and the joint bar 52 has adopted a
two-tailed inward hooking and V formed design (it can also be a T
formed or circular opening cut or other forms which can perform a
clip-sleeve joint, and are not shown here), and the sliding support
bar 111 in the vertical frame 11 has also a V form. And, the joint
groove bar 112 also has the same two-tailed inward hooking V form
and the inside groove dimension as those of the joint bar 52. While
joint assembling, each joint bar 52 in the said joint plate 50 is
sleeved into the relative joint groove bar 112 from upper or lower
ends of the vertical frame plate 11 to form a sleeve-fit between
the joint bar 52 and the joint groove bar 112. And, the sliding
support bar 111 has stayed a close contact with the supporting
slide rail 51 then slide-pushed those to joint assemble these two
window frames together as a whole, and the joint plate 50 can be
internally laid and hidden between these two jointed frames. While
the frames are about to be joint assembled by a top and down
manner, it can be completed by using the same manner of joint
assembly between the joint plate 50 and the horizontal frame plate
12 of the window frame 10.
[0010] Please refer to those shown in FIG. 7 which is an implement
method to further prevent the rain from outdoor from leaking into
the indoor space, such that a leak proof rubber bar 60 can be
separately set in the accommodating grooves 53 located on the front
and back end faces of the joint plate 50 to have a complete close
in the joint locations between frames. Through the above assembly
structure, the cost required for the mutual joint assembling of
this kind of awning window frames is greatly reduced and the
outside appearance of the whole aluminum window after joint
assembling become more concise and not too disordered.
