Abstract

A roller unit comprises a connector assembly secured to a structure or to a door. The connector assembly comprises a spindle. The roller assembly has a wheel having a rolling-element bearing mounted to the spindle, and an annular wheel body mounted to the rolling-element bearing for rotation about the spindle. The annular wheel body has a pair of flanges separated by a groove on a circumferential surface of the annular wheel body. The circumferential surface defines a shape corresponding to the shape of an edge portion of the door or structure engaged in the annular wheel body. The connector assembly is connected to one of the door and the structure, while the wheel receives an edge portion of the other of the door and the structure, whereby the roller unit holds the door and structure face to face while allowing sliding movement of the door with respect to the structure by rotation of the wheel about the spindle. A
sliding door system is also described.

Claims (11)

1. A roller unit for a sliding door comprising:
a connector assembly adapted to be secured to a structure or to a door, the connector assembly comprising a spindle; and an annular wheel body operationally mounted to the spindle of the connector assembly for rotation about the spindle, the annular wheel body defined by a first wheel ring, a second wheel ring and a spacer between the first wheel ring and the second wheel ring to define a pair of flanges separated by a groove on a circumferential surface of the annular wheel body, the circumferential surface defining a shape corresponding to the shape of an edge portion of the door or structure engaged in the annular wheel body by the spacer selected as a function of a desired width of the annular wheel body, the connector assembly being connected to one of the door and the structure while the wheel receives an edge portion of the other of the door and the structure, whereby the roller unit holds the door and structure face to face while allowing sliding movement of the door with respect to the structure by rotation of the wheel about the spindle.
2. The roller unit according to claim 1, further comprising a rolling-element bearing, with the first wheel ring having an inner shoulder to define a seat for the rolling-element bearing, the rolling-element bearing being held axially captive between the first wheel ring, the spacer and the second wheel ring.
3. The roller unit according to claim 1, wherein the first wheel ring, the second wheel ring and the spacer are interconnected by countersunk-head fasteners.
4. The roller unit according to claim 1, wherein the connector assembly comprises a pair of end caps connected through a bore in the door or structure, with the spindle projecting concentrically from one of the end caps.
5. The roller unit according to claim 4, wherein the connector assembly further comprises a disk interconnected to the end caps, the disk being positioned between the end cap, with the disk and one of the end caps being on opposite sides of the door or structure and connected through the bore, and with the disk and the other of the end caps being on opposite sides of the wheel.
6. The roller unit according to claim 5, wherein the disk and the end cap on the opposite side of the door or structure each have a groove or shoulder in a surface facing the door or structure, and the roller unit further comprising a ring of resilient material in each of the groove or shoulder to interface the disk and the end cap to the door or structure.
7. The roller unit according to claim 5, wherein the disk has a throughbore, and the end caps have concentric bores, the roller unit further comprising a single threaded rod to interconnect the end caps with the disk.
8. The roller unit according to claim 5, wherein the disk and the end cap on the opposite of the rolling-element bearing each have a neck facing toward the rolling-element bearing to contact the rolling-element bearing when the roller unit is assembled, to prevent axial movement of the rolling-element bearing on the spindle of the end cap.
9. The roller unit according to claim 5, wherein the disk and the end cap on the opposite of the door or structure each have a neck facing toward the door or structure to contact one another through the door or structure when the roller unit is assembled.
10. The roller unit according to claim 1, wherein the roller unit is secured to the door and the wheel receives an edge portion of a transom of the structure.
11. The roller unit according to claim 1, wherein the roller unit is secured to the structure and the wheel receives an edge portion of a slot in the door.
