Claim:
A sash for a sliding door or a sliding window, the sash comprising: a main body ( 1 ) comprising an insulating chamber ( 2 ) located between a pair of glazing panels ( 3 , 4 ), each glazing panel having, in use, a vertical dimension and a horizontal dimension, the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the glazing panels being larger than the corresponding dimensions of the chamber ( 2 ) so as to form a perimetric housing ( 5 ) which is open towards an outside; three rigid profiles ( 6 ) forming a frame inside three respective sides of the main body ( 1 ), the three rigid profiles ( 6 ) being accommodated stably in the housing ( 5 ); the three rigid profiles ( 6 ) forming an accessory zone which is open towards the outside; each of the three rigid profiles ( 6 ) being made up of three parts, of which two are sides ( 6 a , 6 b ) whose geometry assists in forming the accessory zone, and of which one is a central head portion comprising a first sealing insulating element ( 17 ) that is bilaterally associated with the two sides ( 6 a , 6 b ) and that forms an innermost surface in the housing ( 5 ); each of the three rigid profiles ( 6 ) forming at least one channel ( 11 ) in use accommodating at least one operating rod ( 8 ) for operating a main means ( 9 ) and an accessory means ( 10 ); each channel ( 11 ) extending parallel with and adjacent to the corresponding first sealing insulating element ( 17 ) and along a full length of the channel's corresponding rigid profile ( 6 ); a first rigid profile ( 6 m ) of the three rigid profiles forming a sash bottom crosspiece ( 6 m ) which accommodates at least one pair of sliding carriages ( 9 ) which are partly inserted in the respective channel ( 11 ) of the first rigid profile ( 6 m ) and which can be connected to the respective operating rod ( 8 ), thus in use slidably supporting the main body ( 1 ); the three rigid profiles ( 6 ) forming, together with the housing ( 5 ), an upright ( 103 ) and two crosspieces ( 6 m , 105 ) of the sash ( 100 ), each of the three rigid profiles having at least one contiguous end shaped so that said end is angled, allowing the ends of the rigid profiles to be joined and to form a continuous cover for corners of the frame; the ends of the rigid profiles ( 6 ) being joined by respective angled elements ( 12 ), each angled element ( 12 ) being associated with corresponding innermost surfaces of its respective rigid profiles ( 6 ) so that the channels ( 11 ) define a single channel that runs uninterruptedly along the three sides of the main body ( 1 ).
