ABSTRACT:
A spacer frame assembly for an insulating glass panel is disclosed which is constructed by arranging a plurality of spacer frame segments end to end in substantial alignment, with adjacent frame ends being connected together, and supplying sealant to the aligned spacer frame segments substantially continuously along opposite sides. The adjacent frame segments are then pivoted about axes extending transversely to the opposite sides to form a generally planar polygonal frame configuration and the free ends of the frame are joined.
A connector for adjacent ends of the spacer frame segments is disclosed which includes first and second body portions secured to first and second frame segments, respectively, and hinge structure connecting the body portions for enabling movement of one frame segment relative to the other. The connector body portions are secured relative to each other by connecting structure with the first frame segment in a predetermined angular position with respect to the second frame segment. Free ends of the frame segments are joined by a two part connector.
