Abstract

Abstract A door frame with a lining having a step-shaped portion on each side, which includes two vertical cover parts separated from each other by the lining and extending at a substantially right angle thereto while having one side portion in engagement with the respective adjacent outermost end face section of the step-shaped portions. Each of the two vertical cover parts has a recess at the respective adjacent step-shaped portion of the lining. This recess has arranged therein a dummy strip corresponding in its dimensions substantially to the dimensions of this recess while screws detachably hold the dummy strip in the recess. The dummy strip is covered up toward the outside by cover means at least approximately flush with the adjacent surface of the respective adjacent step.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 214 words
A door frame with a lining having a step-shaped portion on each side, which includes: two vertical cover parts separated from each other by said lining and extending at a substantially right angle thereto while having one side portion in engagement with the respective adjacent outermost end face section of said step-shaped portions, each of said two vertical cover parts having a recess at the respective adjacent step-shaped portion, said recess being adapted to receive a closing plate with holes therethrough for connecting screws, a dummy strip corresponding in its dimensions substantially to the dimensions of said closing plate and detachably inserted into said recess, screw means detachably holding said dummy strip in said recess, and covering means covering up said dummy strip toward the outside and being at least approximately flush with the adjacent surface of the respective adjacent step, said cover parts having holes therein threadedly engaged by said screw means, the axes of said holes corresponding to the axes of the holes in the closing plate, said two vertical cover parts and the respective adjacent step-shaped portions of said lining being provided with aligned blind holes for receiving hinge bolts, said blind holes being closed toward the outside of said lining and said vertical cover parts prior to receiving hinge bolts.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 214 words
A door frame with a lining having a step-shaped portion on each side, which includes: two vertical cover parts separated from each other by said lining and extending at a substantially right angle thereto while having one side portion in engagement with the respective adjacent outermost end face section of said step-shaped portions, each of said two vertical cover parts having a recess at the respective adjacent step-shaped portion, said recess being adapted to receive a closing plate with holes therethrough for connecting screws, a dummy strip corresponding in its dimensions substantially to the dimensions of said closing plate and detachably inserted into said recess, screw means detachably holding said dummy strip in said recess, and covering means covering up said dummy strip toward the outside and being at least approximately flush with the adjacent surface of the respective adjacent step, said cover parts having holes therein threadedly engaged by said screw means, the axes of said holes corresponding to the axes of the holes in the closing plate, said two vertical cover parts and the respective adjacent step-shaped portions of said lining being provided with aligned blind holes for receiving hinge bolts, said blind holes being closed toward the outside of said lining and said vertical cover parts prior to receiving hinge bolts.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 206 words
A door frame on both sides comprising in combination two vertical lining members, one side edge of each of the lining members having a cutout step to form a door abutment, and two cover parts extending at a substantially right angle to said lining members and each having one end face adjacent the cutout step of the respective lining members, each of said two vertical cover parts having in its respective end face a recess, said recess being adapted to receive a closing plate, a dummy strip respectively corresponding in its dimensions substantially to the dimensions of each said recess and detachably inserted into saiD recess so that said recess is filled by said dummy strip which is removable therefrom, said cover part having its outer surface continuous to cover said recess and said dummy strip, and coating means forming the finished surface layer of said end face of said cover parts and covering up said dummy strip, said coating means of said end face being flush with said cutout step in said lining member, said coating means and the outer surface of each of said cover parts concealing said dummy strip so that the outer surface of said cover part is a continuous, uninterrupted surface.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 206 words
A door frame on both sides comprising in combination two vertical lining members, one side edge of each of the lining members having a cutout step to form a door abutment, and two cover parts extending at a substantially right angle to said lining members and each having one end face adjacent the cutout step of the respective lining members, each of said two vertical cover parts having in its respective end face a recess, said recess being adapted to receive a closing plate, a dummy strip respectively corresponding in its dimensions substantially to the dimensions of each said recess and detachably inserted into saiD recess so that said recess is filled by said dummy strip which is removable therefrom, said cover part having its outer surface continuous to cover said recess and said dummy strip, and coating means forming the finished surface layer of said end face of said cover parts and covering up said dummy strip, said coating means of said end face being flush with said cutout step in said lining member, said coating means and the outer surface of each of said cover parts concealing said dummy strip so that the outer surface of said cover part is a continuous, uninterrupted surface.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 162 words
A door frame comprising two vertical lining members, one side edge of the lining members having a cutout step to form a door abutment, and two vertical cover parts, extending at a substantially right angle to said lining members and having one end face adjacent to and aligned with the cutout step of the respective lining members, each of said two vertical cover parts having at its respective end face a recess, said recess being adapted to receive a closing plate, a dummy strip corresponding in its dimensions substantially to the dimensions of said recess and detachably inserted into said recess, and coating means forming the finished surface layer of said end face of said cover parts and covering up said dummy strip in an invisible manner toward the outside, said two vertical cover parts being provided with blind holes for receiving hinge bolts, said blind holes being closed toward the outside of said vertical cover parts prior to receiving hinge bolts.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 162 words
