- the free end portion 23 of the tongue 14, beyond the shoulder 16, is curved so as to form an acute angle with it.
- the flap 11 meets this curved portion 23 at the end of its travel and causes the tongue 14 to flex (shown in broken lines in this position in FIG. 1), until the lower end of the flap 11 exceeds the shoulder 16. From this moment, the tongue returns to its position and the flap is immobilized between the shoulder 16 and the spring 17.
Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne un système de blocage d'un panneau pivotant tel qu'un volet ou une porte; elle a plus particulièrement pour objet un tel système conçu pour une mise en oeuvre plus simple que par le passé, pour améliorer le maintien dudit panneau et pour éviter toute possibilité de battement au vent.The invention relates to a locking system for a pivoting panel such as a shutter or a door; it more particularly relates to such a system designed for a simpler implementation than in the past, to improve the maintenance of said panel and to avoid any possibility of flapping in the wind.
On connaît, par le document de brevet FR-2 496 744, un système de blocage pour immobiliser un panneau pivotant, par exemple un volet, en position ouverte le long d'une paroi, essentiellement composé d'une languette flexible, fixée à la paroi, faisant saillie par rapport à elle et placée au voisinage du trajet pivotant d'un bord du panneau, cette languette étant munie d'un moyen de retenue adapté. Le moyen de retenue est, le plus souvent, un simple trou pratiqué dans la languette et dans lequel vient se loger la tête d'une vis fixée sur le champ du panneau. Un tel dispositif constitue un progrès indéniable par rapport à la classique patte montée pivotante à l'extrémité d'un axe scellé au mur, mais le jeu nécessaire entre la tête de vis et le bord du trou de la languette laisse au panneau la possibilité d'osciller légèrement sous l'effet du vent, ce qui peut être à l'origine de bruits gênants. En outre, la fixation de la vis sur le champ du panneau requiert une certaine précision et la tenue de cette vis peut poser des problèmes suivant la nature ou l'état du panneau (volet en matière plastique ou en bois légèrement pourri, par exemple). Par ailleurs, le brevet US n° 2 590 423 décrit un système de blocage du type selon le préambule de la revendication 1 évitant les bruits dus au vent. Ce système comprend un ressort arrière de sorte que le panneau se trouve toujours immobilisé sans jeu. Cependant un tel système est compliqué techniquement et coûteux de par la variété et la nature des pièces à fabriquer et à stocker. L'objet de l'invention consiste à supprimer ces inconvénients. Cet objet est atteint en prévoyant un système de blocage selon le préambule de la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que le ressort arrière constitue avec la languette une seule pièce en matière plastique souple, en ce que ledit ressort comprend une partie inclinée flexible et une extrémité recourbée destinée à entrer en contact avec ledit panneau, en ce que ladite languette flexible comporte une partie sensiblement à profil en U avec une base et deux branches, en ce que l'une des branches constitue ledit épaulement, en ce que l'autre branche formant partie de fixation à ladite paroi comporte un trou de fixation, en ce que la base est plus large que l'épaisseur dudit panneau auquel ledit panneau est destiné et en ce que ledit ressort en forme de lame souple prolonge ladite autre branche.Known from patent document FR-2 496 744, a locking system for immobilizing a pivoting panel, for example a flap, in the open position along a wall, essentially composed of a flexible tongue, fixed to the wall, projecting from it and placed in the vicinity of the pivoting path of an edge of the panel, this tab being provided with a suitable retaining means. The retaining means is, most often, a simple hole made in the tongue and in which is housed the head of a screw fixed to the field of the panel. Such a device constitutes an undeniable progress compared to the classic tab pivotally mounted at the end of an axis sealed to the wall, but the necessary clearance between the screw head and the edge of the hole in the tongue leaves the panel with the possibility of '' oscillate slightly under the effect of the wind, which can be the source of annoying noises. In addition, the fixing of the screw on the field of the panel requires a certain precision and the holding of this screw can cause problems according to the nature or the state of the panel (plastic or slightly rotten wooden shutter, for example) . Furthermore, US Pat. No. 2,590,423 describes a blocking system of the type according to the preamble of claim 1 avoiding wind noise. This system includes a rear spring so that the panel is always immobilized without play. However, such a system is technically complicated and costly due to the variety and nature of the parts to be manufactured and stored. The object of the invention is to eliminate these drawbacks. This object is achieved by providing a blocking system according to the preamble of claim 1, characterized in that the rear spring constitutes with the tongue a single piece of flexible plastic material, in that said spring comprises a flexible inclined part and an end. curved intended to come into contact with said panel, in that said flexible tongue comprises a part that is substantially U-shaped with a base and two branches, in that one of the branches constitutes said shoulder, in that the other branch forming part for fixing to said wall has a fixing hole, in that the base is wider than the thickness of said panel for which said panel is intended and in that said spring in the form of a flexible blade extends said other branch.
Par la structure particulière revendiquée des moyens élastiques de maintien et de l'emploi de la matière plastique souple, il est possible, par la forme en une seule pièce de parvenir aux mêmes fonctions par des moyens de fabrication simples permettant en outre une grande facilité de stockage et de mise en place.By the particular claimed structure of the elastic means for holding and using the flexible plastic material, it is possible, by the form in a single piece to achieve the same functions by simple manufacturing means further allowing great ease of storage and placement.
On peut en outre envisager la fabrication d'un tel système en très grande série avec seulement un petit nombre de modèles de dimensions différentes pour couvrir toute la gamme des épaisseurs possibles de volets, persiennes, portes, fenêtres, etc.We can also consider the manufacture of such a system in very large series with only a small number of models of different dimensions to cover the whole range of possible thicknesses of shutters, shutters, doors, windows, etc.
Plus précisément, la languette flexible comporte une partie sensiblement en forme de U dont une branche verticale constitue ledit épaulement. La base de la portion en forme de U est plus large que l'épaisseur du panneau auquel ledit système est destiné et le ressort prend place au-dessus de cette base. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le ressort est un ressort-lame situé dans le prolongement de l'autre branche verticale de la partie sensiblement en forme de U, de sorte que le ressort-lame et la languette ne forment qu'une seule pièce en matière plastique souple.More specifically, the flexible tongue has a substantially U-shaped portion, a vertical branch of which constitutes said shoulder. The base of the U-shaped portion is wider than the thickness of the panel for which said system is intended and the spring takes place above this base. According to a preferred embodiment, the spring is a leaf spring located in the extension of the other vertical branch of the substantially U-shaped part, so that the leaf spring and the tongue form a single piece made of flexible plastic.
L'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront mieux à la lecture de la description qui va suivre d'un mode de réalisation possible d'un système conforme à son principe, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en référence au dessin annexé, dans lequel:
- - la figure est une vue de profil d'un mode de réalisation actuellement préféré d'un système de blocage conforme à l'invention, le panneau étant représenté immobilisé dans ledit système.
- - The figure is a side view of a currently preferred embodiment of a locking system according to the invention, the panel being shown immobilized in said system.
En se référant plus particulèrement à la figure 1, on a représenté la partie inférieure d'un volet 11 monté pivotant verticalement par rapport à une paroi 12. La trajectoire du chant lia de ce volet s'effectue donc dans un plan horizontal 13. Pour immobiliser le volet en position d'ouverture, parallèlement à la paroi 12, on prévoit, selon l'invention, un système de blocage essentiellement composé d'une languette flexible 14 conformée pour présenter des moyens de retenue du volet 11 et d'un ressort arrière 17. La languette est en matière plastique souple, elle a une largeur constante dans le sens perpendiculaire au plan du dessin. Elle est fixée à la paroi 12 par tous moyens convenables, comme par exemple une vis 15, de façon à faire saillie par rapport à ladite paroi, au voisinage du trajet pivotant du chant 11 a, dans le plan 13. Les moyens de retenu précités sont essentiell définis par un épaulement 16 de la languette, sensiblement perpendiculaire à la direction générale de celle-ci, et par le ressort arrière 17. Dans l'exemple de la figure 1, ce ressort est un ressort-lame formant une seule pièce avec la languette. Il comporte une partie inclinée flexible 18 faisant saillie à partir de la paroi 12 et une extrémité recourbée 19 destinée à entrer en contact avec le volet 11. La partie inclinée 18 prolonge une partie de fixation 20, commune à la lanquette et au ressort-lame. Cette partie de fixation 20 comporte un trou oblong 21 pour la fixation de l'ensemble à la paroi 12 et son réglage vertical.Referring more particularly to FIG. 1, there is shown the lower part of a
La languette 14 comporte une partie sensiblement en forme de U dont la branche verticale la plus éloignée de la paroi constitue l'épaulement 16 précité, tandis que l'autre branche verticale est la partie de fixation 20. La base 22 de cette partie en forme de U est plus large que l'épaisseur du panneau auquel le système est destiné, c'est-à-dire ici l'épaisseur du volet 11. Au montage, il suffit de veiller à ce que la partie supérieure de l'épaulement 16 soit située au-dessus du plan 13, pour que le volet puisse être immobilisé entre ledit épaulement et le ressort-lame 17, sans possibilité de battement au vent et ceci pour des volets d'épaisseurs très différentes. En effet, suivant l'épaisseur du volet, le ressort 17 se redresse plus ou moins mais reste en contact avec le volet 11, et sa force augmente avec la largeur du volet.The
D'autre part, de façon connue en soi, la portion d'extrémité libre 23 de la languette 14, au-delà de l'épaulement 16, est recourbée de façon à former un angle aigu avec celui-ci. Ainsi, le volet 11 rencontre cette portion recourbée 23 en fin de course et fait fléchir la languette 14 (représentée en trait interrompu dans cette position sur la figure 1), jusqu'à ce que l'extrémité inférieure du volet 11 dépasse l'épaulement 16. A partir de ce moment, la languette reprend sa position et le volet est immobilisé entre l'épaulement 16 et le ressort 17.On the other hand, in a manner known per se, the
