Press fit storm window system
A system for mounting a panel within an existing window frame. The system includes an elongated fin portion and an elongated carrier. The fin portion has a ridge section, an extension extending from the base end of the ridge section, and a crosspiece coupled to a distal end of the extension. The ridge section tapers from its base end to a deflectable and compressible tip of the ridge section. The crosspiece includes a pair of shoulders at opposite ends of the crosspiece. Each shoulder protrudes laterally beyond the extension. The elongated carrier has a receiving slot opposite a panel gap. The receiving slot has a neck laterally narrower than an interior cavity of the receiving slot. The receiving slot is configured to securely receive the crosspiece of the bulb and to confine the shoulders of the crosspiece.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IMPROVED LOUVER WINDOWS
The system includes a series of operable louvers mounted on a four-sided frame and connected on each side to the operating mechanism that allows for easy opening and closing of the louvers. Every part of the system that is exposing to the exterior of the building is separated from the interior part of the system by a low heat conductivity material as a thermal barrier. Each operable louver is composing of a four-sided main frame, two panes of glass (inner and outer) and a coupling mechanism on each side that connects to the operating mechanism. The main frame acts as the thermal break as well as a system that absorbs the energy created when an outside object impacts the window from the outside. The system incorporates sealing devices between all moving parts to eliminate water and air infiltration. The operating system allows for easy opening and closing of the window by rotating each louver with the crank mechanism assisted by springs.
Profiled arrangement, particularly for a refrigerator and/or freezer device
The invention relates to a profiled arrangement (1) particularly for a refrigerator and/or freezer device (10), comprising at least one base (8), at least one securing arrangement (2), at least one sealing arrangement (3) and at least one profiled element (5), characterised in that at least one free end (51) of the profiled element (5) is arranged on the sealing arrangement (3), and that at least one additional free end (52) of the profiled element (5) is connected to the base (8) by means of at least one movement arrangement (4) that at least partially projects into the sealing arrangement (3), said movement arrangement comprising two movement sections (40, 41) arranged approximately opposite one another. The invention also relates to a closing element (20) for a refrigerator and/or freezer device (10) having such a profiled arrangement (1), and to a refrigerator and/or freezer device (10) comprising such a profiled arrangement (1).
PRESSURE-TIGHT DOOR ALLOWING MOVEMENT OF HINGES
A pressure-tight door allowing movement of hinges includes: a hinge fixating part including a fixed member having one surface with a movable groove formed therein and the other surface fixed to a door frame, and a movable member having one surface inserted into the movable groove so as to slide bidirectionally on the movable groove and a hinge attached to the other surface of the movable member, connected to a door and sliding together with the movable member. The movable member of the hinge fixating part slides inwardly together with the hinge only when the pressure due to flooding or explosion is applied to the pressure-tight door, whereby the pressure-tight door is able to effectively block any leakage by compressing the gasket.
LOW COMPRESSION-FORCE TPE WEATHERSEALS
A weatherseal has a stiffener and a foam profile. A first portion of the foam profile is connected to the stiffener. A second portion of the foam profile is joined to the first portion at a hinge. The first and second foam profile portions have inner surfaces facing substantially towards each other and outer surfaces facing substantially away from each other. The foam profile defines at least one continuous elongate lumen. A portion of the foam profile has a resin coating.
SHOWER DOOR
An apparatus for providing a seal between a door jamb and a hinged door leaf of a shower, the apparatus having a flexible body configured to be attached to the door jamb and configured to contact the door leaf when the door leaf is in a closed position.
VEHICLE WEATHER STRIP
A vehicle weather strip according to the present invention includes a base that is attached to a door, a protrusion (a first elastic contact section) that comes into elastic contact with a sash of the door further in a door outer side direction than the base, a protrusion (a second elastic contact section) that comes into elastic contact with the sash further in the door outer side direction than the protrusion (the first elastic contact section). The protrusion (the second elastic contact section) is in contact with at least a molding in the sash.
HINGE-SIDED FINGER PROTECTION DEVICE
The invention relates to a hinge-sided finger protection device for a wing door, comprising at least a protective profile (1) and at least a fastening means (3) for fastening the protective profile (1) to a door frame (R) of the wing door. The protective profile (1) can be plugged onto the fastening means (3), wherein the protective profile (1) accommodates in itself the fastening means (3) in the plugged-on state. The protective profile (1) is non-destructively removable from the fastening means (3) and can be again plugged thereon. The at least one fastening means is preferably a clip (3).
SLIDING ELEMENT WITH SEALING DEVICE AND SEALING ELEMENT
The sliding element includes a sliding plate and a sealing device that includes at least one sealing element, which forms a sealing frame that is arranged on a rear side of the sliding plate and that extends peripherally along an edge of the sliding plate. The sliding plate includes a base plate and a flange plate, which is offset from the base plate, which is connected in one piece to the base plate and which is separated at its edge from the base plate by a circumferential anchor groove, which anchor groove serves for holding the at least one sealing element, which at least one sealing element includes an anchor member that is inserted into the anchor groove and that is connected via a connection body to a compression member.
PRESS FIT STORM WINDOW SYSTEM
A system for mounting a panel within an existing window frame. The system includes an elongated fin portion and an elongated carrier. The fin portion has a ridge section, an extension extending from the base end of the ridge section, and a crosspiece coupled to a distal end of the extension. The ridge section tapers from its base end to a deflectable and compressible tip of the ridge section. The crosspiece includes a pair of shoulders at opposite ends of the crosspiece. Each shoulder protrudes laterally beyond the extension. The elongated carrier has a receiving slot opposite a panel gap. The receiving slot has a neck laterally narrower than an interior cavity of the receiving slot. The receiving slot is configured to securely receive the crosspiece of the bulb and to confine the shoulders of the crosspiece.
