Definitions
- This invention concerns a shutter with slats which may be rotated simultaneously from a completely open position to an air-tight closed one.
- shutters There are currently many types of shutters, ranging from traditional ones formed of two rotating wings on hinges fixed in the window frame, equipped either with fixed parallel slats from the top to the bottom or with moveable slats controlled by a vertical hinged rod, to so-called rolling shutters. All these types of shutters have protection from light as their major purpose, allowing the light penetration in the habitation to be varied. However, they also serve, especially at night, to protect from cold, wind, inclement weather in general, and in particular for inhabitants of apartments or houses at or near street level also to give greater protection from the outside.
- All of the above shutters are able to regulate the intensity of the light penetrating the living areas, but can only partially protect them from inclement weather, such as wind, rain, snow, or from smog, dust, cold and noise. Furthermore, they always require somewhat costly maintenance and are subject to frequent damage, especially in the case of rolling shutters.
- This invention aims to realize a type of shutter which, while allowing the light flow in the living areas to be regulated, also allows an absolutely air-tight seal with respect to the external environment. It absolutely guarantees thermal isolation, as well as isolation from. inclement weather, smog, dust, show and noise, while also ensuring that the slats are fixed and stable in each position intermediate between total opening and air-tight closing.
- said rotating supports of said slats are equipped on the side facing the longitudinal section of the framework with devices to connect via grooves with the swellings of said nylon supports pressure inserted in the respective longitudinal aluminum sections.
- These devices consist of two parallel grooves drawn in said rotating supports with the distance between them equal to that between the swellings formed by the nylon sections.
- said rotating supports have a protruding molding which penetrates a corresponding molding of the slat; the edge of the latter in turn penetrates a groove drawn in said supports which runs along the edge of said protruding molding, to form the seal.
- the shutter slats have identical angular moldings arranged opposite to one another. Upon closing, these penetrate the corresponding angular molding of the slat directly above or below the slat in question.
- the edges of said moldings are grooves containing strips of a plastic material like nylon to contribute to a better seal of the slats with one another.
- This invention also provides that said anodized or painted aluminum sections pressure inserted in the top and bottom transverse sections of the framework have the same right angle molding as the slats, placed opposite the. congruent angular molding of the top and bottom slat.
- the edges of the molding on these sections are also equipped with a gasket to form a groove seal with the angular molding of the respective slat once the slats are placed in the closed position.
- this invention also provides that the sides of said aluminum sections pressure inserted in the top and bottom transverse sections of the framework are equipped with nylon sealing slats with grooves on both sides to seal with the end of said transverse section as well as with the swellings of the nylon sections incorporated in the longitudinal sections of the framework.
- the air-tight seal of the shutter is due to the grooved elastic connection of the rotating supports of the slats with the swellings of the nylon sections incorporated in the longitudinal sections of the framework, to the grooved coupling of the slats with the rotating supports, to the hinges sealing these with the longitudinal sections of the framework, to the elastic rabbets of the angular molding of the slats with one another and of the slats with the sections on the transverse sections of the framework, as well as to the lateral groove-forming slats with said applied sections and with the swellings of the nylon sections along the longitudinal sections of the framework.
- Figure 1 shows a shutter according to this invention in the closed position, with two wings. Note how each wing is enclosed by a principal framework consisting of four sections 1. The left and right longitudinal and top - and bottom-sections of the wing are indicated as 2,2' and 3,3' respectively. The rotating slats are indicated with 4.
- Figure 2 shows one wing only of the shutter.
- the four sections 1 of the principal frame which, after the elements of the wing are assembled, are connected to one another in a known way through sections 1' blocked on the inside with peg 1 "' and locked with a countersunk head screw not shown in the drawing.
- Hinges 1" ensure that the wing is hinged to the window frame.
- Slat 4 is shown in figure 3 in its assembly position. This has angular moldings 4a,4b on its upper and lower edges which will join either with the congruent angular moldings immediately above and below or with the equal angular molding of the respective section 3a (fig. 4), respectively 3b, pressure inserted in top or bottom transverse section 3 or 3' of the framework. Note that molding 4a of the slat carries a gasket 4c in plastic, for example nylon, to form a better seal. Slat 4 consists of two walls 7,8 forming between them a suitable profile to act as a pressure groove with a corresponding protruding molding 6,6' of right and left rotating supports 5 and 5'.
- rotating supports 5,5' are hinge mounted on right and left longitudinal sections 2 and 2' (the latter is not shown in figure 3).
- rotating supports 5,5' On the side opposite moldings 6,6', rotating supports 5,5' have a circular hollow pin 9,9' at the bottom of which is a shallow circular cavity 10,10' in which base disk 12,12' is placed, with a sleeve 11,11' equipped with a stop pin 13,13'.
- Sleeve 11,11' fits on hollow pin 9,9'.
- Sleeves 11,11' are in turn inserted in the holes 14,14' provided in right and left longitudinal sections 2,2' of the framework, while stop pin 13,13' functions by entering holes 15,15' in said supports.
- nylon sections 18,19,18',19' protrude above the surface of sections 2,2' to form sewllings 22, 23,22',23'. These exert an elastic action against rotating supports 5,5', in which there are parallel grooves 10,21,20',21' the same distance apart as the distance between sections 18,19,18',19'; this is shown more clearly in figure 6.
- the elastic action is exerted when the shutter is closed (figure 4) since said nylon sections hold the slats in a fixed position, blocking them through the coupling with grooves 20,21,20',21', as well as when the shutter is open (figure 5) since they exert pressure on slat supports 5,5' to ensure they hold a fixed position.
- rotating supports 5,5' have upper and lower angular moldings 24,24' opposite to one another, such that they form a perfect reciprocally sealed connection when the shutter is closed (figure 4).

Abstract
Air-tight shutter with moveable slats. The shutter is made up of two longitudinal (2,2') and two transverse (3,3') aluminum sections to form a frame within which are arranged rotating slats operated by a single handle. The lateral hinges of the slats are air-tight. The seal between lateral supports (5, 5') of the slats and longitudinal sections (2, 2') is ensured by nylon sections (18, 19, 18', 19') incorporated in sections (2, 2') to function as springs. The seal between the slats (4) is ensured by their congruent angular molding (4a, 4b), equipped with plastic gasket (4c). The seal of the upper and lower slats of the shutter is ensured by the congruence of the respective angular molding (4a, 4b) with the corresponding angular molding (35) of sections (3a, 3b), equipped with plastic gasket (3a') and inserted in grooves in sections (3, 3'). The lateral seal of sections (3a, 3b) is ensured by slats (31) (figures 2, 3).
Description
- This invention concerns a shutter with slats which may be rotated simultaneously from a completely open position to an air-tight closed one.
- There are currently many types of shutters, ranging from traditional ones formed of two rotating wings on hinges fixed in the window frame, equipped either with fixed parallel slats from the top to the bottom or with moveable slats controlled by a vertical hinged rod, to so- called rolling shutters. All these types of shutters have protection from light as their major purpose, allowing the light penetration in the habitation to be varied. However, they also serve, especially at night, to protect from cold, wind, inclement weather in general, and in particular for inhabitants of apartments or houses at or near street level also to give greater protection from the outside.
- All of the above shutters are able to regulate the intensity of the light penetrating the living areas, but can only partially protect them from inclement weather, such as wind, rain, snow, or from smog, dust, cold and noise. Furthermore, they always require somewhat costly maintenance and are subject to frequent damage, especially in the case of rolling shutters.
- This invention aims to realize a type of shutter which, while allowing the light flow in the living areas to be regulated, also allows an absolutely air-tight seal with respect to the external environment. It absolutely guarantees thermal isolation, as well as isolation from. inclement weather, smog, dust, show and noise, while also ensuring that the slats are fixed and stable in each position intermediate between total opening and air-tight closing.
- This goal is achieved through the realization of a shutter with a framework of anodized or painted aluminum sections arranged in parallel longitudinal and transverse pairs and with slats which may be rotated simultaneously from a completely open to a completely closed air-tight position, wherein:
- - all the anodized or painted aluminum sections of the framework show the same internal and external molding;
- - two nylon sections are pressure inserted in each of the two longitudinal sections, such that due to elasticity they remain fixed in the position acquired through the internal molding of said aluminum section;
- - said nylon sections protrude slightly the entire length of the longitudinal aluminum section from the inside of the framework, to form parallel swellings;
- - along the mid-line of each longitudinal aluminum section, at equal intervals, rotating supports for the slats are applied to the inside of the framework with air-tight hinges; the slats in turn are equipped with devices to connect them tightly with one another as well as with the swellings of said nylon sections;
- - on the inside of the framework, an aluminum section is pressure inserted in each of the transverse sections, molded so as to form a hermetic seal with the bottom and top slats of the shutter, and is equipped with lateral sealing devices.
- The fundamental concept of the invention is thus based on the realization of a perfectly air-tight seal. To this end, according to this invention, said rotating supports of said slats are equipped on the side facing the longitudinal section of the framework with devices to connect via grooves with the swellings of said nylon supports pressure inserted in the respective longitudinal aluminum sections. These devices consist of two parallel grooves drawn in said rotating supports with the distance between them equal to that between the swellings formed by the nylon sections. When the shutter slats are opened, the rotating supports rotate with the slats to reach a position in which they form a 90° angle with the two longitudinal aluminum_sections; due to their elasticity, the swellings of the two nylon sections are then pressed against the surface of the rotating supports. When the shutter slats are in the closed position, said swellings lock into said grooves in the rotating supports to form a perfectly air-tight seal with them. Furthermore, on the opposite side of the longitudinal sections of the framework, said rotating supports have a protruding molding which penetrates a corresponding molding of the slat; the edge of the latter in turn penetrates a groove drawn in said supports which runs along the edge of said protruding molding, to form the seal.
- According to this invention, along each longitudinal edge, the shutter slats have identical angular moldings arranged opposite to one another. Upon closing, these penetrate the corresponding angular molding of the slat directly above or below the slat in question. Along the edges of said moldings are grooves containing strips of a plastic material like nylon to contribute to a better seal of the slats with one another.
- This invention also provides that said anodized or painted aluminum sections pressure inserted in the top and bottom transverse sections of the framework have the same right angle molding as the slats, placed opposite the. congruent angular molding of the top and bottom slat. The edges of the molding on these sections are also equipped with a gasket to form a groove seal with the angular molding of the respective slat once the slats are placed in the closed position.
- Finally, this invention also provides that the sides of said aluminum sections pressure inserted in the top and bottom transverse sections of the framework are equipped with nylon sealing slats with grooves on both sides to seal with the end of said transverse section as well as with the swellings of the nylon sections incorporated in the longitudinal sections of the framework.
- Therefore, the air-tight seal of the shutter is due to the grooved elastic connection of the rotating supports of the slats with the swellings of the nylon sections incorporated in the longitudinal sections of the framework, to the grooved coupling of the slats with the rotating supports, to the hinges sealing these with the longitudinal sections of the framework, to the elastic rabbets of the angular molding of the slats with one another and of the slats with the sections on the transverse sections of the framework, as well as to the lateral groove-forming slats with said applied sections and with the swellings of the nylon sections along the longitudinal sections of the framework.
- The advantages of this invention thus arise from the air-tight closure of the shatter. This allows perfect thermal isolation of the living area from the outside as well as protection from inclement weather. Because the shutter is very solid, made entirely of anodized or painted aluminum, and because its levers and hinges are all made of nylon, there is no danger of deterioration or breakage and so no maintenance is required. Finally, the shutter according to this invention may easily be assembled on site, with consequent savings of transportation and labour costs.

sections 1. The left and right longitudinal and top - and bottom-sections of the wing are indicated as 2,2' and 3,3' respectively. The rotating slats are indicated with 4. - Figure 2 shows one wing only of the shutter. Note the four
sections 1 of the principal frame which, after the elements of the wing are assembled, are connected to one another in a known way through sections 1' blocked on the inside withpeg 1 "' and locked with a countersunk head screw not shown in the drawing. Hinges 1" ensure that the wing is hinged to the window frame. Note also right and left longitudinal aluminum sections 2:2 and transverse top andbottom aluminum sections 3,3', rotatingsupports slats 4, top andbottom sections transverse sections 3 and 3' of the framework, and finally the respectivelateral sealing slats 31',31 . -

When joined with protrudingmolding 6,6', said slat penetratesgroove 25,25' to form a seal. - The above description of figure 3 shows how all the structural elements necessary for assembly and functioning of
slat 4 have been planned and designed with the aim of obtaining a perfectly air-tight seal. - This can be seen more clearly in figure 4, which shows a section of the wing with an internal view of the right side. Note how
angular moldings 24, congruent with rotating supports ofslat 4, are joined together with a perfect seal, further ensured bygasket 4c. On the top, the seal is ensured by the congruence of the angular moldings ofsection 3a fitted withgasket 3a' with the congruentangular molding 4a ofslat 4 fitted with gas-- ket-4c. Evidently,angular moldings 24,24' ofrotating supports slat 4 withangular moldings 4a and 4b of said slats. Also note howgrooves 20,21 (dashed lines) ofrotating support 5 are arranged to couple geometrically and seal withnylon sections rotating supports 5 androd 29 connecting them, between handle M andlever arm 30 and, respectively, between saidlever 30 and handle M. These hinges will be discussed in greater detail with reference to figures 9 and 10. - Figure 5 gives a sectional view of the position of the right side of the shutter, when opened. In this position,

The seal of these elements is completed bygasket 3a'. Naturally, the mirror image of this slat is applied to the left side oftop section 3a and to both sides ofbottom section 3b. - Figure 9 shows operating handle M hinged to
