ABSTRACT:
A shutter assembly is disclosed for the selective covering of a wall opening. The shutter assembly includes at least one set of shutter elements with each set having at least first and second shutter elements. Each shutter element includes a pair of spaced panel members and end elements interconnecting the panel members to form top and bottom ends members and oppositely disposed side members and to define an enclosed interior chamber therewithin. A member is interposed between the panel members within the interior chamber for providing thermal insulation and to define enclosed air spaces between the thermal insulating member and each of the panel members. Reflective elements are disposed on each side of the thermal insulating member for preventing thermal radiation energy loss. The shutter assembly also includes a jamb structure disposed adjacent the wall opening for mounting each set of shutter elements. Joint structures are disposed along the side members of the shutter elements and the jamb element to afford positive interengagement therebetween when the shutter elements and the jamb element are aligned with each other in a closed position to cover the wall opening. Insulation is disposed along the joint structures and the top and bottom end members of each shutter element for thermally sealing the shutter elements when in a closed position. Finally, an arrangement is included for permitting movement of the shutter elements of each set of elements away from the wall opening to an open position.
