A window includes an insulated glass unit and a frame supporting the insulated glass unit. The insulated glass unit includes a first glass pane and a second glass pane spaced from the first glass pane. A central plane extends through a pocket defined between the first glass pane and the second glass pane. The frame includes a first material visible on a first side of the window. The window also includes cladding connected to the frame. The cladding includes a second material visible on a second side of the window. The frame defines a cavity that extends between the first side and the second side and inhibits moisture from the first side contacting the second material. The window includes a thermal cavity defined by the frame and aligned with the pocket.

Extruded plastic profiles with integrated insulation, the method for extruding such products, and the windows and doors made with such plastic extrusions. The plastic extrusions may additionally include a low heat build-up capstock system comprising an acrylic cap and pigment system that is substantially IR transparent. The extruded plastic profiles with integrated insulation are recyclable using conventional plastic extrusion process and are fully weldable in conventional window and door manufacturing.

Disclosed is a door leaf including a frame and a door panel with a front leaf, a back leaf and a filler plate. The frame includes conventional profiles with a lip oriented inwards to form a groove. The front leaf is affixed against the front of the frame, and at least partially covers the front of the frame. The door panel is fastened to the back of the frame by panel slats. The front leaf is provided with clamp that enable the front leaf to be pulled against the front of the frame, whereby these clamps are formed by one or more clamps along the periphery of the frame with a basic element that is fastened on the front leaf and a clamping slat affixed thereon that hooks behind an aforementioned lip and can be tightened on the basic element towards the front leaf.
摘要:
A window having a window frame, a leaf frame nested in the frame, the leaf frame framing a double-glass pane; a reservoir entirely disposed in a horizontal element of the leaf frame of the double-glass pane, the reservoir being filled with a tinting substance; horizontal axes disposed at midpoints of a height of vertical elements of the leaf frame, the horizontal axes serving to couple the leaf frame with the window frame; the leaf frame being configured to rotate about said horizontal axes by 180° relative to the window frame to cause the tinting substance to move by gravity from the reservoir into the double-glass pane, wherein a capacity of the reservoir is hermetically coupled to an internal capacity of the double-glass pane. The tinting substance is liquid or solid homogeneous powdery mass consisting of spherical crumbs.

A window includes a vacuum insulating glass (VIG) window unit in a window frame. The window frame includes at least one vacuum insulated structure (VIS) for improving the insulating functionality of the frame, so that the frame can adequately insulate the periphery of the VIG unit. Such windows may be used in residential and/or commercial window applications for buildings. The use of a window frame having at least one VIS is advantageous in that allows for improved window frame thermal performance and a narrow frame design if desired for improved aesthetics.

A curtain wall system includes a plurality of laminated glass sections or insulated-laminated glass sections, held within a plurality of horizontal extrusions and vertical extrusions. Each laminated glass section includes glass reinforcing bars having a flat bar shape. For insulated-laminated glass, the reinforcing bars have a cross-sectional shape of a ‘Z’ such that a top cap of the glass reinforcing bars extends over the glass section and a bottom cap of the glass reinforcing bars extends over an opposing side. The laminate glass has a layer of glass, a layer of thermoplastic polymer, another layer of glass and a safety shield. The insulated-laminated glass has an outer layer of glass, a gap, a first inner layer of glass, a layer of thermoplastic polymer, a second inner layer of glass and a safety shield. Such curtain wall systems resist wind loads and wind borne debris from ultimate hurricanes and tornadoes.

A sealed translucent glass glazing unit includes two lites of spaced translucent glass to define a gap which contains an absorptive filler. A spacer around the perimeter of the unit seals the unit and maintains the gap. A vent tube is mounted within the spacer with one end open to the filler and one end open to the exterior.
