ADAPTABLE DRAUGHT EXCLUDER FOR A DOOR OR A WINDOW
An adaptable draught-excluder (1) for a fixture hinged to a frame having a jamb (S), that can be automatically actuated by interaction with the jamb (S) and comprises an outer profile (2) adapted to be secured to a bottom edge of the fixture, a movable inner profile (3) slidingly housed in the outer profile (2) and having a sealing member (6) designed to interact with a sill, actuation means (7) for the inner profile (3), which are designed to displace the sealing member (6) between a raised position and a lowered position relative to the sill, at least two guide elements (8, 8') interposed between the profiles (2, 3) for keeping them parallel as they move. The profiles (2, 3) have the same length ( l ), encompassing all door widths, such length ( l ) being susceptible of being reduced by cutting an end portion, for the profiles (2, 3) to fit the actual width of the fixture upon which the device (1) is mounted. Connection means (9) are provided for securing one of the guide elements (8) to the profiles (2, 3) in an end position proximate to the jamb (S) and the other (8') in a safe position, at a distance from the end portion to be cut, to prevent the guide element (8') from being damaged upon cutting. A method of adapting and mounting a draught excluder device (1).
