Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sliding door with two leaves, in particular an elevator door for persons, of a freight elevator or the like, with a door frame and, associated with each leaf, an installation for hanging and guiding a leaf of the type avoiding, with the door closed, any protrusion of the guide rails laterally to the door frame, and consisting of rollers cooperating with at least one guide rail by means of which the leaf is supported by the door frame, the suspension installation and for guiding at least one leaf comprising a first guide rail carried by the leaf and movable on a fixed roller in position carried by the door frame and a second guide rail, provided with a counter rail in which s engages a movable roller housed at the end of an arm constituting an extension of the leaf in the direction of the door opening.
  • each leaf is carried by the door frame by means of a suspension and guide installation which comprises at least one guide rail disposed at the top of the door frame, on which are called to move the rollers carried by the leaf or by a support element fixed to the upper part of the leaf.
  • a suspension and guide installation which comprises at least one guide rail disposed at the top of the door frame, on which are called to move the rollers carried by the leaf or by a support element fixed to the upper part of the leaf.
  • This construction has the advantage of avoiding an overshoot of the guide rails laterally to the cross member thus allowing, with the door closed, the embedding of the leaves in the wall. From the interdependence of the leaves during the opening and closing operations, it follows however that in certain relative positions of the leaves there may be a tilting of the latter, in particular inwards, this by rotation of the leaf around corresponding fixed roller.
  • the present invention aims to provide a remedy to these difficulties.
  • the invention as characterized in the claims solves the problem of creating a method of hanging and guiding a sliding door leaf with which, both for a door with two leaves movable in two opposite directions as for a door with two telescopic leaves, an overhang of the guide rails laterally to the door frame is avoided with the door closed without a risk of tilting of the leaves can be established during the opening and closing operations.
  • the reference 1 designates a door frame obtained by assembling or welding elements of folded sheet.
  • the door frame 1 is intended to support the leaves 2 and 3 of an elevator landing door with two identical sliding leaves capable of being automatically moved, in opposite directions and at the same time as the car doors, by means of a mechanism not shown actuated by a drive device carried by the cabin.
  • At the upper part of the door frame 1 are arranged two guide rails 4.1, 4.2 which are in the form of a single continuous guide rail 4 fixed to the door frame 1.
  • a guide roller 5, 6 carried rotating by an axis fixed to the port frame 1.
  • each cross member 7, 8 designate cross members respectively fixed to the upper part of the leaves 2 and 3.
  • a guide rail 9, 10 which substantially covers the width of the corresponding leaf and slightly exceeds the latter, so as to be able to move, both in the open and closed position of the door, on the corresponding roller 5, 6 carried by the door frame 1.
  • each cross member 7, 8 comprises an extension in the form of an arm 11, 12, the length of which is slightly greater than the width of a leaf and at the end of which is housed rotating a roller 13, 14 which rests on the guide rail 4 fixed to the frame of door 1.
  • the arm 12 extending the cross 8 of one of the leaves 3 is offset rearward and overlaps the cross 7 attached to the other leaf, in which, to allow free displacement of the corresponding roller 14, an elongated opening 7 is provided .1.
  • the guide rail 4 fixed to the door frame 1 and the two guide rails 9, 10 movable with the leaves 2 and 3 each have a counter-rail portion 4.3, 9.1, 10.1 for the rollers 13, 14 and 5, 6 (fig. 3 and 4).
  • rollers fixed in position 5, 6 carried by the door frame 1, the guide rails 9, 10 movable with the leaves, the movable rollers 13, 14 carried by the arms 11 and 12 and the two fixed guide rails 4.1, 4.2 formed by the continuous rail 4 constitute two leaf suspension and guide installations with which, in the door closed position, no part of the guide rail projects beyond the door frame.
  • Figures 5 to 8 show an embodiment of the invention applicable to an elevator landing door with two telescopic leaves, that is to say with two leaves sliding in the same direction.
  • the reference 15 designates a door frame intended to support two leaves 16, 17 capable of being moved at different speeds by means of a mechanism (not shown) actuated from the elevator car.
  • a cross member 18 At the upper part of the slow leaf 16 is fixed a cross member 18 which, as in the previous embodiment, carries a guide rail 19 capable of moving on a roller 20 carried rotating by an axis fixed to the door frame 15.
  • the cross member 18 is also provided with an extension in the form of an arm 21, at the end of which is housed rotating a roller 22 movable on a fixed guide rail 23 carried by the door frame 15 in the same plane as the rail of movable guide 19.
  • the crosspiece 18 fixed to the slow leaf 16 On its face opposite to that carrying the guide rail 19, the crosspiece 18 fixed to the slow leaf 16 carries a guide rail 24, which extends over the width of the two leaves 16 and 17 and on which rollers 25 can move , 26 housed rotating on a cross-member 27 fixed to the upper part of the rapid leaf 17.
  • the rapid leaf 17 is of the sort carried sliding by the slow leaf 16.
  • Another advantage obtained thanks to the invention lies in the fact that, in all cases, the total length of guide rail required for each leaf does not exceed the width of the door frame. This results in a lighter door construction.
  • the invention is more particularly applicable to landing doors whose door frame must be fixed to the masonry of a duct opening, it also relates to cabin doors which are carried by means of the cabin chassis. Also, the expression “sliding door with two leaves” extends to doors provided with leaves movable in opposite directions, for which each leaf itself consists of two telescopic parts.
  • both the guide rails and the support elements can be provided from folded sheet profiles.
  • the necessary fixings between the elements can be made by assembly or by welding.
