Panel system

摘要

A panel system including a sheet-like movable panel; a lower profile carrying the panel weight and acting as a panel guide track; an upper profile supporting the panel from above and acting as a panel guide track; and an opening guide track placed in parallel with the lower profile, carrying the panel weight and acting as a panel guide track. The panel can move from the lower profile onto the opening guide track and simultaneously pivot to an open position, in which the panel weight is carried by both the lower profile and the opening guide track. In an embodiment, an opening angle of the panel with respect to the lower profile in the open position is smaller than 90° or 85°, or not greater than 45°, or is preferably from 10° to 15°. In an example, the panel system further includes a sheet-like immovable panel with an open position.

1. A panel system comprising:
a movable panel that is sheet-like and substantially vertical, a lower profile that is substantially horizontal, supports the weight of the movable panel, and acts as a first guide track for the movable panel; an upper profile that is substantially parallel with the lower profile, supports the movable panel from above, and acts as a second guide track for the movable panel; an immovable panel that is sheet-like, substantially vertical and supported by the upper profile, wherein the weight of the immovable panel is carried by the lower profile, and wherein the immovable panel has a closed position and the immovable panel is configured to pivot to an open position in which one vertical edge of the immovable panel is pivoted in a lateral direction with respect to the lower profile; and an opening guide track that is placed in parallel with the lower profile, supports the weight of the movable panel, and acts as a third guide track for the movable panel, wherein the movable panel can move from the lower profile on top of the opening guide track and simultaneously pivot to an open position, in which both the lower profile and the opening guide track support the weight of the movable panel; wherein, for moving the movable panel into the open position from a closed position, in which the movable panel is parallel with the lower and upper profiles, a leading vertical edge of the movable panel is configured to follow the lower profile, and further an opposite trailing vertical edge of the movable panel is configured to move from the lower profile to the opening guide track and to follow the opening guide track when the movable panel is moving into the open position; wherein the movable panel in the open position of the movable panel is placed in a space between the lower guide track and the immovable panel in the open position of the immovable panel; wherein an opening angle of the movable panel in the open position of the movable panel is not greater than 45° with respect to the lower profile.
