Arrangement for sealing glass panes in wooden window or door leaves

An arrangement for sealing a glass pane in a wooden frame opening defined by a plurality of peripherally extending sections of said frame, at least one section comprising a glass rebate chamfer on an outside portion of said frame and at least another section comprising a glass retaining strip on an inside portion of the frame and serving as an inner boundary for said frame opening, said glass pane being disposed in said wooden frame opening between the glass rebate chamfer and said glass retaining strip and spaced from each of the rebate chamfer and strip to define a first space between the glass rebate chamber and one side of the glass pane and a second space between an opposite side of the glass pane and said glass retaining strip, the improvement residing in that the frame includes a radially directed surface, serving as an outer boundary for said frame opening, peripherally bounding said glass rebate chamfer and extending outwardly therefrom in a direction away from said one side of the glass pane, said radially directed surface in cross section being a generally smooth surface excepting for its inner end portion adjacent said one side of the glass pane whereat said surface is stepped out of a plane containing said smooth surface to define a protruding web, said web having an inner portion which merges with a wall delimiting said glass rebate chamfer facing and generally parallel to said one side of said glass pane, said web protrusion from said radially directed surface being small compared to an overall extend of the merged inner end of said web with said delimiting wall of the glass rebate chamfer, a first elastic strand seal in said first space and having a profile projection overlapping said web in form of a cap, said profile projection having an end face engaging a portion of said radially directed surface adjacent said web and being elastically pressed against a face of said stepped web remote from the glass pane, a second elastic strand seal in said second space having a sealing section having a convexity of essentially banana-shape in cross-section in its unmounted state and being disposed in said second space with its convexity toward the glass retaining trip so that when thus mounted pretensioning forces are applied by the second elastic strand seal against said opposite side of said glass pane for bracing said glass pane in said wooden frame.
