Abstract
In a window for installation in an inclined roof (1) the main frame (2; 3) includes a top-hinged upper window frame (12) and a bottom-hinged lower window frame (4) to be opened outwards into horizontal and vertical positions to form a shedroof above and a breast wall of a balcony-like enlargement. The lower frame (4) is hinged to the main frame (2; 3) in such a manner that its bottom section (4') in the open position is displaced downwards from the bottom section (2 ) of the main frame to reduce the height of the top edge of the frame above the latter bottom section.
Claims2
A window for installation in an inclined roof (1), comprising a main frame (2;
- 3) and upper and lower openable window frames (4;
- 12) journalled in the main frame one above the other to cover the main frame opening in their closed position, said upper openable frame being pivotally hinged to the main frame at its top side and said lower openable frame being pivotally hinged to the main frame at its bottom side to permit outwards turning of said upper and lower frames into substantially horizontal and vertical open positions, respectively, characterized in that the lower frame (4) includes a bottom section which is pivotally hinged to a supporting means which is connected with the main frame (2;
- 3) to allow downwards displacement of said bottom section (4') away from a bottom section (2) of the main frame in a direction substantially parallel to the plane of the main frame towards said vertical open position of the lower frame.
