052204600 | Multiple panes within a sash | 11 |
20080245002 | Device and Method for Fixing Glass Windows to an Outer Wall Construction - The invention relates to a profile for fixing a glass window comprising an inner pane and an outer pane to an outer wall construction, wherein the inner pane and the outer pane are separated by an insulating cavity, wherein the profile comprises a spacing profile which is adapted to extend between the inner pane and the outer pane of the window on the periphery of the window, a fixing profile which is adapted for connection to at least one of the panes of the window and to the outer wall construction, wherein the spacing profile and the fixing profile are combined into a unitary profile comprising a spacing part and a fixing part. This measure results in a considerable cost reduction, particularly in respect of the mounting, since only one profile need after all be placed. | 10-09-2008 |

20110296775 | TOGGLE ASSEMBLY FOR RETAINING A PANEL MEMBER - The present invention relates to a toggle assembly that can be used with a curtain wall system to retain infills of panel members. A toggle assembly of the present invention is sufficiently designed to simultaneously retain in place a first infill of a first panel member and a first infill of a second panel member on both sides of a mullion, wherein at least a portion of the toggle assembly directly engages at least a portion of the first infill of the first panel member and at least a portion of the first infill of the second panel member. | 12-08-2011 |
20110296776 | SASH BINDER - Another exemplary embodiment relates to a sash assembly. The sash assembly includes an outer sash having at least one groove, an inner sash having at least one groove, and a removable binder extending along a perimeter of a surface of the outer sash and inner sash. The binder is configured to engage the outer sash and the inner sash and to mechanically couple the outer sash and the inner sash together. The binder includes a plurality of protrusions. Each protrusion is configured to mate with one of the groove in the inner sash and the groove in the outer sash. Each protrusion includes a plurality of flexible barbs that are compressed when the protrusion mates with one of the grooves. The flexible barbs provide a force on interior edges of the groove to couple the inner sash and outer sash together. The binder is configured for removal for service of the sash assembly. | 12-08-2011 |
20130000232 | LAMINATED GLASS RETENTION SYSTEM - A laminated glass retention system for securing a laminated glass subassembly within a window sash or frame member or door panel or similar component includes a retention member applied to the laminated glass subassembly. The retention member generally can include a leg portion that engages of the laminated glass subassembly, and can further include a base portion that is coupled to the frame member in which the laminated glass subassembly is seated. The retention member helps retain the insulating glass subassembly within its frame member when subjected to high winds and wind-borne debris. | 01-03-2013 |
20130232894 | WINDOW - A window with at least one leaf, which may be swiveled around a vertical axis, has at least two glass panels arranged one above the other in a vertical direction. The leaf is configured so that one of the glass panels is offset forwards in relation to the other glass panel or panels in the line of sight when looking at the window from outside. | 09-12-2013 |
20150020465 | FIELD MULLING SYSTEM FOR WINDOWS AND DOORS - A system for field mulling a plurality of fenestration assemblies in an opening includes a first fenestration assembly positioned in the opening. The first fenestration assembly has a mull halve. A second fenestration assembly is positioned in the opening adjacent to the first fenestration assembly. The second fenestration assembly has a mull halve and is positioned so that the second fenestration assembly mull halve is adjacent to the first fenestration assembly mull halve. At least one H-shaped mull connector is coupled to the first fenestration assembly mull halve and the second fenestration assembly mull halve. | 01-22-2015 |
20150308183 | DUAL GLAZING PANEL SYSTEM - Panel unit assemblies with first and second engagement members having panel-attachment members for retaining portions of the panels and pairs of opposed transparent or translucent panels with retaining portions attached to the panel-attachment members of the first and second engagement members to form adjacent interlocked panel units. The first engagement member has a first wall disposed between the first pair of panels and a male member projecting from the first wall with at least one catch rail and the second engagement member has a second wall disposed between the panels with a pair of sidewalls defining an interlock cavity for receiving the male member. The catch rail of the male member is disposed adjacent to an inner surface of the sidewalls to engage an interlock cavity sidewall inner surface and limit pivoting movement of the panels. | 10-29-2015 |
20150345207 | WINDOW FRAME SYSTEM FOR VACUUM INSULATED GLASS UNIT - A window assembly may include a vacuum insulated glass unit and a frame assembly. The vacuum insulated glass unit may include first and second glass substrates defining a space therebetween that is at a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure. One of the first and second glass substrates may include a vacuum port extending outward therefrom. The vacuum port may define a passage in communication with the space. The frame assembly supports the glass unit and may include a base member and a glazing member. The base member and the glazing member cooperate to define a slot in which an edge portion of the glass unit is received. The glazing member may include a cavity receiving the vacuum port. The glazing member and the base member may define a plurality of pockets that hinder thermal conductivity through the frame assembly. | 12-03-2015 |
20150354263 | Thermal Break Glazing Insulation and Infiltration Reduction System - A thermal break glazing insulation and infiltration reduction system is a system for minimizing heat loss and heat gain through an existing window. A second glazing panel is installed into an existing window unit with a first glazing panel that is installed into a window frame. The second glazing unit does not come into contact with the window frame or the first glazing panel. Additionally, the second glazing unit is offset from the first glazing unit in order to create a trapped air space through which thermal energy is unable to pass. The width of the trapped air space is determined on the basis of individual needs and may be widened through the use of an at least one L-shaped bracket. The second glazing panel is attached to the first glazing panel or the at least one L-shaped bracket via an at least one spacer. | 12-10-2015 |
20160102492 | INTEGRAL PLASTIC TRUE DIVIDED LIGHT WINDOW FRAME - An integral plastic true divide light (TDL) window frame to replace wood true divided light window frame and grilles which are composed of individual pieces of wood frames and grilles joined together chemically or mechanically. The integral plastic TDL window frame is preferably of one-piece molded plastic construction with a number of small windows for holding individual panes of insulating glass units (lights, preferably with beveled glass), and consequently the window frame and muntin grilles form an inseparable integrated unit. | 04-14-2016 |
