(18) as being installed between the window frame portion 1110, 1310, 1500, 1120, 1220 that supports the three sides (an upper side, a lower side, and an outer one side (but not a middle bar side)) of the fixed window and a window glass panel 100 provided as pair glass, the installation structure comprising;

(19) an outer segment insulation support 1320a inserted into the window frame 1110 of an outer portion and a central portion of the window glass, and an inner segment insulation support 1320b inserted into the window frame 1310, 1500 of an inner portion of the window glass;

(22) a window glass panel fixing bracket 1330k made of an expanded plastic-based material having a fitting protrusion 1330ka (referring to FIG. 6e) which is fitted to a second fitting groove 1330b formed on an inner portion of the insulating glass pedestal 1330, wherein the window glass panel fixing bracket 1330k is installed in a wedge method to respond to the static pressure of the wind pressure by supporting the inner side of the window glass panel 100; and

(24) the installation structure having an additional characteristic in that, an inner shape of the insulating glass pedestal 1330 has a reduced cross-section so as not to interfere with the central support surface 1320b-2 of the inner segment insulation support 1320b, when a rotational fitting end 1320b-1 of the inner segment insulating support 1320b to be subsequently coupled is rotated by a set angle and fitted to an inner locking protrusion 1111 of the window frame 1110 of the outer portion and the central portion of the window glass.

(25) Wherein, the outer segment insulating support 1320a and the inner segment insulating support 1320b may also be provided as a foamed plastic (Expanded Plastic) material.

(26) The insulating glass pedestal 1330 is not installed to support the window glass panel 100 only at a portion of the edge, but is a member to be installed with continuously contacting the window glass panel 100 on the upper surface, the lower surface, and one side of the window glass panel 100. In some cases, a plurality of segmented pedestal may be continuously installed on one side.

(27) In addition, it is more preferable that a glass height adjustment pedestal 1330s is interposed between the insulating glass pedestal 1330 and the window glass panel 100.

(28) Components forming such an installation structure complete the installation of the fixed window of the sliding window system by going through the steps shown in FIGS. 6a to 6f. Hereinafter, FIGS. 6a to 6f, which sequentially illustrate steps A to F will be described.

(29) First, as shown in STEP A illustrated in FIG. 6a, the outer segment insulation support 1320a is inserted and installed inside the window frame 1110 at the outer and central parts of the window glass. And, as shown in STEP B shown in FIG. 6b, adjacent to the outer segment insulation support 1320a in the center portion of the insulation glass pedestal 1330 (1330-u, 1330-d, 1330-s) made of expanded plastic-based material are fitted and installed using the installation clip 1330c. On the upper surface of the insulating glass pedestal 1330, a glass height adjustment pedestal 1330s having an appropriately selected height for correcting the height difference is installed before the window glass panel 100 is placed. An outer glass fixing gasket 1120ge made of an expanded rubber material is coupled to the first fitting groove 1330a formed on the outer side of the insulating glass pedestal 1330. Herein, the foam structure contributes greatly to expanding the thermal insulation properties.

(30) Next, the windowpane panel 100 is placed as shown in STEP C shown in FIG. 6c. In addition, as shown in STEP D shown in FIG. 6D, the inner segment insulation support 1320b is inserted into the window frames 1310 and 1500 at the inner side of the window glass. At this time, a shape of the inner portion 1330e of the insulating glass pedestal 1330 has a reduced cross-section so as not to interfere with the central support surface 1320b-2 of the inner segment insulation support 1320b, when a rotational fitting end 1320b-1 of the inner segment insulating support 1320b to be subsequently coupled is rotated by a set angle and fitted to an inner locking protrusion 1111 of the window frame 1110 of the outer portion and the central portion of the window glass. And, as shown in STEP E shown in FIG. 6e, a window glass panel fixing bracket 1330k made of foamed plastic (Expanded Plastic)-based material, having a fitting protrusion 1330ka coupled to the second fitting groove 1330b formed on the inner side of the insulating glass pedestal 1330, supports the inner side of the window glass panel and is installed in a wedge manner to respond to the static pressure of the wind pressure.

(31) Then, finally, an inner glass fixing gasket 1220ge made of an expanded rubber material is coupled to the fitting groove 1330ka formed in the window glass panel fixing bracket 1330k. Thus, by completing the fixing of the inner surface of the window glass panel 100 of the fixed window, the assembly work of the main components for installing the fixed window is completed.

(32) Here, the outer glass fixing gasket 1120ge and the inner glass fixing gasket 1220ge made of expanded rubber material are a first fitting groove 1330a formed on the outer side of the insulating glass pedestal 1330 and the window glass panel, respectively. It is coupled to the fitting groove 1330ka formed in the fixing bracket 1330k. As shown in the drawings, an outer upper cap 1120 made of aluminum is provided on the upper part of the outer segment insulating support 1320a, and an outer upper cap 1220 made of aluminum is provided on the upper part of the inner segment insulating support 1320b. And for a more stable fixed coupling, the outer glass fixing gasket 1120ge and the inner glass fixing gasket 1220ge may be fixedly coupled to the coupling grooves 1120a and 1220a provided on the corresponding surfaces of the outer upper cap 1120 and the outer upper cap 1220, respectively.

(33) In addition, the foamed plastic-based material described in the present invention is an insulating material in which a plastic resin is foamed with a foaming agent, and has poor thermal insulation properties compared to expanded rubber (Foam Rubber), but it is possible to maintain its shape as a single body, so it is useful as a building material requiring weather resistance. Representative examples include extruded expanded polystyrene, rigid urethane foam, polyethylene foam, expanded PVC, and expanded polyurethane, and the thermal conductivity may be in the range of approximately 0.020 to 0.1 kcal/mh? C. at an average temperature of 20? C.

(34) Numerical analysis test result obtained by simulating the temperature of the window system component by configuring the configuration according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention as a numerical analysis model (outdoor temperature ?18? C., room temperature 21? C.: temperature difference ?T=39? C.) is shown in FIG. 7a of the accompanying drawings. According to the analysis results, the effect of maintaining a high temperature of 15.2? C. at the reference point of the inner part 110 of the window frame 100, thus indicating high energy efficiency and further preventing condensation was confirmed. And in Comparative Example 2 of a different configuration (the shape and arrangement of the components are the same, but the comparative state using EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) instead of foam rubber), as shown in the accompanying drawings FIG. 7b, relatively low temperature of 10.4? C. is maintained at the reference point of the inner part 110 of the window frame 100. Compared with the preferred embodiment of the present invention, it can be seen that a temperature drop of 4.8? C. appears.

(35) As described above, in the drawings showing the preferred embodiments of the present invention for the sliding window to which the present invention is applied, a plurality of glass panels are formed by overlapping at a predetermined interval, but by bonding with a sealing member to realize a vacuum in the gap. Although it has been described by exemplifying that it is applied to a window with a pair of glass to be formed, the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and includes cases applied to various types of sliding windows (doors or windows). Various modifications and improvements of those skilled in the art using the basic concept of the present invention defined in the following claims also belong to the scope of the present invention.
