ABSTRACT:
The bead comprises a frame having front and rear longitudinally extending spaced-apart flanges. The front flange faces the windowpane when the bead is interlocked with a lateral projection of a framework. A weatherstrip is connected and extends along the frame before the front flange. The weatherstrip has a portion overlapping at least an end portion of the front flange for preventing direct contact of the front flange with the framework. Two flexible portions project from the weatherstrip. The first flexible portion presses against the periphery of the windowpane and the second flexible portion presses against the framework. A securing device interlocks the bead with the lateral projection of the framework. Heat losses are reduced because the bead has no direct contact with the framework and with the air surrounding the periphery of the weatherstrip.
