Abstract
A joint structure for two juxtaposed thermally-insulated window units, includes cooperating pairs of plug and socket members disposed on and along opposite inner edges of the window units. The plug members are resiliently received in the mating socket members and are movable with respect to the same to thereby take up or accommodate a relative displacement between the window units, thermal deformation and manufacturing tolerances created in the window units. A resilient block of thermal insulating material is disposed in a space between the opposite inner edges so as to increase the mechanical strength and the thermal insulation of the joint between the window units.
