Device for fixing frame on spacer especially of insulated glass unit uses heating unit to heat spacer and/or fixing member when introducing fixing member into spacer in order to eliminate stress cracks

摘要

The fixing device has a fixing unit (4) for introducing the fixing member (5) into the spacer and frame (1) whereby the spacer and/or fixing member is heated through a heating unit (18) which can interact with a heating duct (19). The heating unit and/or heating duct and/or contact face (21) of the fixing unit can be designed so that different temperatures are possible for same. Independent claim describes method for fitting frame on spacer which involves heating the spacer and inserting the fixing member in the spacer and frame. Independent claim describes spacer consisting at least in part of fibre-reinforced plastics with woven combination of cross fibres and long fibres wherein the carbon fibre proportion is between 10 and 100 percent of the fibre content.
