A support frame for a window frame is provided to address the problem of unwanted entry of moisture, such as condensation, into a building in which the window frame is mounted. The support frame includes four sections of flashing. Each section of flashing has a window frame support plate that has a window frame side and building framework side. A first longitudinal wall extends from the window frame side of the support plate. One or more longitudinal stiffening box sections continuous with the plate are provided for imparting rigidity to the flashing. Two of the sections comprise sill and header flashings spaced apart at either end by the remaining two sections, which comprise jamb flashings. Joiners connect adjacent ends of the four sections.

A corner bracket assembly for use in an associated frame assembly is provided. The corner bracket assembly comprises a body, a first leg and second leg. The first leg extends from the body and is adapted to be connected to a first frame member of the associated frame assembly. The second leg extends from the body in a direction approximately normal to the first leg and is adapted to be connected to a second frame member of the associate frame assembly. The corner bracket assembly further comprises a roller element rotatably mounted within one of at least two axially spaced positions in at least one of the body, the first leg, and the second leg. The roller element protrudes outward a selected distance relative to at least one of the body, the first leg, and the second leg.
摘要:
A nodal assembly for connecting at least two adjacent frame members of a perimeter frame, the nodal assembly comprising a central portion having parallel first and second sides and an opening in the second side, a first leg extending from the central portion in a first direction parallel to the first side and having a cavity within it in communication with the opening, a second leg extending from the central portion in a second direction different from the first direction but also parallel to the first side, and a retainer slidably received in the cavity and movable between a retracted position substantially within the central portion and the first leg and an extended position in which the retainer extends substantially outwardly of the opening in the second side of the central portion and away from the second side.

A stile and rail forming a corner, are connected by a unitary corner connector having a first upright portion disposed in a channel of the stile, a laterally extending portion, and a second upright portion spaced from and extending in the same direction as the first upright portion and disposed in an opening in the rail spaced laterally from the stile. The first upright portion includes a shoulder and the channel includes a shoulder, with the shoulders being in engagement to lock the corner connector to the stile. The second upright portion includes a shoulder engaging a shoulder defining the rail opening to lock the corner to the rail. When the connector is an upper connector a member is adjustably connected to the second upright portion which suspends the connector to an upper track. When the connector is a lower connector, an elongated guide element is slidably connected to the second upright portion which guides the connector on a lower track. Other details to the corner connector guide element, and adjustable member are embodied herein.
