Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a blade for the production of furniture doors, curtains, shutters or the like.
  • curtain doors that is to say doors having a plurality of blades hinged on each other, and likely either to be located in the same plane in the closed position, either to undergo a winding in the lower part or in the upper part of the cabinet to release the central opening, or else in the lower part and in the upper part.
  • the advantage of such an arrangement lies in the fact that in the open position, the door or doors do not project beyond the piece of furniture, which saves space, and makes it possible, during the working period, to leave them in the open position without these constituting an embarrassment.
  • Such a piece of furniture is, for example, in conformity with that shown in FIG. 1 of the appended schematic drawing, representing a cabinet 2 comprising a door produced from two panels, respectively upper 3 and lower 4, closing in a horizontal plane at mid-height. , each of the panels consisting of blades 5 hinged on each other.
  • the blades used in the constitution of such doors can be produced in different ways. According to a first possibility, these are wooden blades glued to a textile strip forming a support and allowing the assembly of the assembly. Another possibility is to use metal blades joined to each other by axes, or plastic blades shaped so that one of their edges has a rounded tongue, while their opposite edge has a shaped groove complementary. The engagement of a tongue of a blade in the groove of an adjacent blade ensures both the holding and the articulation of the two blades relative to each other.
  • plastic blades are entirely satisfactory, as regards their mode of operation, and in particular the absence of noise during the operation of the doors, they have the disadvantage of being of a very high cost price, because of the cost of the raw materials they are made of
  • Such blades are also used for other applications such as the production of curtains or shutters.
  • US Patent 3,437,126 relates to a blade for a furniture door, of the type set out in the preamble of claim 1.
  • This blade is produced from an open metal profile, of U-shaped section, the horizontal upper wing of which has a vertical extension upwards, the horizontal lower wing of which is extended by square-shaped hooks, each capable of penetrating into a lumen formed in the profile located immediately below, at the junction of the upper wing and the vertical extension thereof.
  • These blades have the drawback of having protruding parts inside the cabinet, capable of catching the elements contained therein, and in addition of leaving a certain vertical clearance between the blades, generating significant noise during the period. for operating the curtain, during successive "falls" of the blades on top of each other.
  • the FR patent. 1,213,885 relates to a shutter with tubular blades of synthetic material, assembled to each other by independent hooks situated substantially in the longitudinal median plane of the blades.
  • the hooks or assembly staples protrude from one of the small faces of a blade.
  • longitudinal slots In the opposite face of the adjacent blade are formed longitudinal slots, the number of which corresponds to the number of hooks, each slot having a length equal to that of a staple, and being offset with respect to the latter by a length substantially equal to that of the connection zone between a staple and the blade.
  • the staples of a blade are engaged in the corresponding slots of an adjacent blade, the two blades having undergone an axial shift, after which the two blades are brought back into alignment so that the projecting part of each staple is inside of the adjacent blade and behind the wall thereof.
  • the present invention aims to provide a metal blade for the production of doors, overcoming these drawbacks.
  • This blade is of the type comprising, on the one hand, tabs in the form of staples projecting from the small face of the blade forming the lower edge and, on the other hand, longitudinal slots formed on the upper edge of said blade and which are suitable for receiving the aforementioned clips in the form of staples from the blade situated immediately above, in order to attach and articulate the two blades considered, according to the invention, this blade forms a tubular element of substantially section rectangular, the two parallel edges of the metal strip from which it is made being joined and being located at an angle of the blade facing the interior of the cabinet, the tabs in the form of staples being formed by the extension of the face grade of the blade facing the interior of the cabinet, the longitudinal slots being formed in the other small face of the blade corresponding to its upper edge, near the large face of the blade extended by the staples, each lumen having a length equal to that of a staple and being offset with respect thereto ci on the side of the connection zone between the staple and the blade, of a length substantially equal to the length of said zone.
  • the staples of one blade are engaged in the slots opposite an adjacent blade, the two blades having a slight axial offset, after which the two blades are brought back into alignment, so that the protruding part of each clip is inside the adjacent blade, and behind the wall thereof.
  • the assembly thus produced ensures very good resistance of the blades relative to each other, preventing them from colliding during the operation of the curtain that they constitute.
  • the fact that the blades are tubular ensures an excellent presentation of these, on their two faces, without any projecting part risking to hang the files or other objects contained in the piece of furniture equipped with this curtain, and allows the sparing of a hollow volume capable of receiving fireproof and / or soundproofing foams.
  • a method of manufacturing this blade consists in first making the cut to the length of the metal strip intended for the formation of a blade, in making by punching, notching and lumièrage the tabs in the form of staples at one of the edges of the strip, the lights oriented longitudinally to the strip, and the end cutouts, then proceed to the shaping of the blade by several successive stampings, ensuring the formation of longitudinal folds, one of which is arranged near the series of lights, and which are made so that the two parallel edges of the metal strip from which the blade is made are contiguous and located at an angle to said blade.
  • Each blade 5 constituting the door is in the form of a metal section of generally rectangular section having, projecting from one of its small faces, arranged along the length, a tab 6 in the form of a clip having a zone 7 integral with said face, and an extension 8 parallel to the latter.
  • longitudinal slots 9 In the other small face of the blade are provided longitudinal slots 9, the number of which corresponds to that of the staples and the length of each of which corresponds to the length of a staple.
  • the slots 9 are offset longitudinally with respect to the staples 6 by a value corresponding to the length of the area 7 between a staple 6 and the blade itself.
  • the zone in which the two parallel edges of the blank constituting the blade are joined is situated at the level of an angle of the profile, turned towards the interior of the cabinet, the staples 6 constituting the extension of the face 10 of the blade facing the inside of the cabinet.
  • each blade if the visible front face 12 of each blade is substantially planar, the rear face 10 thereof has a longitudinal and central rib 13 giving this rear face good nervousness, and ensuring its plating against the other edge of the profile.
  • each blade also has a cutout 14 in its rear face 10 at its two ends. This cutting is made with care of a tongue 15 allowing the fixing of a bar 16 intended to come to bear on the guide path of the door, not shown in the drawing.
  • Each bar 16 is made of synthetic material, so as to provide good damping and to avoid as much as possible the noise due to the operation of the door.
  • the assembly of the various blades relative to each other is carried out by engagement of a clip 6 of a blade in a longitudinal opening made in the adjacent blade.
  • This assembly ensures the holding of the blades relative to each other, while allowing their articulation, as shown in particular in Figure 4, in order to allow the retraction of the doors 3 and 4 respectively at the top and bottom of the 'cabinet.
  • FIGS. 5 to 9 of the accompanying schematic drawing show the different phases of an embodiment of the method of manufacturing a blade according to the invention.
  • This process consists in starting from a blank 17 of rectangular shape shown in FIG. 5, then in providing therein by notching, lumièrage and punching, the cutouts 14, the lights longitudinal 9 and staples 6.
  • the blank is then in the state shown in Figure 6. It is then carried out two simultaneous stamping operations respectively at 18 and 19 providing two folds at 90 °.
  • the invention brings a great improvement to the existing technique by providing a metal blade of simple design offering exactly the same functional and aesthetic advantages as the blades of synthetic material, and not requiring additional elements. assembly, such as axes.
