Description

L'invention est relative à une pièce d'articulation et de maintien d'un panneau tel qu'une porte sur un autre tiennent, en particulier un cadre lui servant de support.The invention relates to a hinge and holding part of a panel such as a door on another hold, in particular a frame serving as a support.

Elle s'applique plus particulièrement à des types de panneaux qui sont susceptibles d'être soumis à des contraintes accidentelles lors de leur utilisation, et a pour but d'éviter leur détérioration suite à ces contraintes.It applies more particularly to types of panels which are liable to be subjected to accidental stresses during their use, and is intended to prevent their deterioration following these stresses.

Il est connu que lorsqu'une porte est forcée accidentellement au-delà de sa position maximum d'ouverture, la porte ou bien encore les éléments qui la soutiennent, tels que les pivots ou les charnières, sont détériorés, suite aux contraintes qui s'exercent sur tout ou partie de ces éléments à proximité de l'axe d'articulation. Il arrive parfois que ce soit également l'élément auquel la porte est arti- . culée, par exemple le cadre support, qui soit détérioré.It is known that when a door is accidentally forced beyond its maximum opening position, the door or even the elements which support it, such as the pivots or the hinges, are damaged, due to the stresses which exert on all or part of these elements near the axis of articulation. It sometimes happens that this is also the element to which the door is articulated. abutment, for example the support frame, which is damaged.

Afin de remédier à ces inconvénients, on a inventé des systèmes de butée qui limitent les contraintes mécaniques exercées à proximité de l'axe d'articulation lorsque la porte est forcée au-delà de sa position maximum d'ouverture.In order to overcome these drawbacks, stop systems have been invented which limit the mechanical stresses exerted near the hinge pin when the door is forced beyond its maximum opening position.

Cependant, il est parfois impossible de placer des butées pour empêcher le déplacement de la position maximale, pour des raisons d'esthétique et/ou d'encombrement. C'est le cas, par exemple des meubles de rangement tels que les armoires frigorifiques, dans lesquelles la fermeture est assurée par une porte principale et à l'intérieur desquelles on trouve parfois des compartiments qui possèdent chacun leur propre porte, afin de les isoler de l'extérieur lorsque la porte principale est ouverte.However, it is sometimes impossible to place stops to prevent displacement of the maximum position, for reasons of aesthetics and / or size. This is the case, for example, storage units such as refrigerated cabinets, in which the closure is ensured by a main door and inside which there are sometimes compartments which each have their own door, in order to isolate them. from the outside when the main door is open.

Dans un réfrigérateur, par exemple, le compartiment de production de glace est isolé à l'aide d'une telle porte, et dans certains congélateurs à chargement frontal qui possèdent plusieurs compartiments, chaque compartiment est fermé par sa propre porte.In a refrigerator, for example, the ice-making compartment is isolated using such a door, and in some front-loading freezers that have more than one compartment, each compartment is closed by its own door.

Dans ces différents types de meubles, l'articulation des portes des divers compartiments est assurée soit à l'aide de charnières, soit à l'aide de pivots et s'effectue soit autour d'un axe horizontal, soit autour d'un axe vertical.In these different types of furniture, the articulation of the doors of the various compartments is ensured either by means of hinges or by means of pivots and is carried out either around a horizontal axis or around an axis vertical.

Dans le cas des armoires frigorifiques, ces portes n'ont qu'un rôle d'isolation et, de ce fait, sont souvent réalisées dans un matériau fragile. Il peut arriver qu'une telle porte soit forcée au-delà de sa position maximale normale d'ouverture, et alors une contrainte anormale survient à proximité de l'axe d'articulation, entraînant la détérioration.In the case of refrigerated cabinets, these doors have only an insulation role and, therefore, are often made of a fragile material. It may happen that such a door is forced beyond its normal maximum opening position, and then an abnormal stress occurs near the hinge pin, causing deterioration.

Il arrive fréquemment, par exemple, que la porte principale de l'armoire frigorifique se referme alors que la porte d'un compartiment est ouverte : c'est alors la porte principale qui exerce la contrainte anormale sur la porte du compartiment.It often happens, for example, that the main door of the refrigeration cabinet closes while the door of a compartment is open: it is then the main door which exerts the abnormal stress on the door of the compartment.

Ce type d'incident est fréquent dans le cas des armoires frigorifiques et, lorsqu'il survient, il est nécessaire de changer la porte qui a été détériorée.This type of incident is frequent in the case of refrigerated cabinets and, when it occurs, it is necessary to change the door which has been damaged.

La pièce de l'invention remédie à ces inconvénients en évitant, lorsqu'elle est utilisée sur une porte qui risque d'être soumise à des contraintes, la détérioration de la porte ou bien encore sa propre détérioration.The part of the invention overcomes these drawbacks by avoiding, when it is used on a door which risks being subjected to stresses, the deterioration of the door or even its own deterioration.

Selon l'invention, une pièce d'articulation et de maintien d'un panneau sur un autre élément comporte une assise pour assurer sa fixation sur le panneau, un pivot pour coopérer avec un orifice ménagé dans l'élément support du panneau et assurer l'articulation, et une partie de liaison entre le pivot et l'assise et est caractérisée en ce que l'un de ces éléments constitutifs est déformable par élasticité.According to the invention, an articulation and holding piece of a panel on another element comprises a seat to ensure its attachment to the panel, a pivot to cooperate with an orifice formed in the support element of the panel and ensure the articulation, and a connecting part between the pivot and the seat and is characterized in that one of these constituent elements is deformable by elasticity.

Ainsi, lorsqu'un panneau tel qu'une porte est articulé sur un autre élément à l'aide d'une telle pièce, si une contrainte anormale est exercée, il s'ensuit une déformation de la pièce qui évite la détérioration de la porte ou bien de l'élément support ou bien de la pièce de liaison elle-même.Thus, when a panel such as a door is hinged to another element using such a part, if an abnormal stress is exerted, it results in a deformation of the part which prevents deterioration of the door either the support element or the connecting piece itself.

Puisqu'il s'agit d'une déformation élastique, lorsque la contrainte cesse, la pièce reprend sa forme initiale.Since it is an elastic deformation, when the stress ceases, the part returns to its initial shape.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, c'est la partie de liaison entre le pivot et l'assise qui est déformable par élasticité. Ainsi, il n'existe absolument plus aucune contrainte dans la zone de jonction entre la porte et la pièce, c'est-à-dire au niveau de l'assise et dans la zone de rotation entre le pivot et l'élément support du panneau.According to another characteristic of the invention, it is the connecting part between the pivot and the seat which is deformable by elasticity. Thus, there is absolutely no longer any constraint in the junction zone between the door and the room, that is to say at the level of the seat and in the rotation zone between the pivot and the support element of the sign.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention apparaîtront avec la description de quelques modes de réalisation faite en regard des figures ci-annexées sur lesquelles :

  • - La figure 1 représente un type de porte de compartiment d'armoire frigorifique de l'art antérieur,
  • - La figure 2 est une vue d'une armoire frigorifique possédant divers compartiments isolés par des portes munies de pièces d'articulation selon l'invention,
  • - La figure 3 montre une pièce de l'invention montée sur une porte lorsqu'aucune contrainte n'est exercée,
  • - La figure 4 montre la pièce de l'invention montée sur une porte lorqu'elle subit une contrainte,
  • · - La figure 5 est une vue en perspective d'une pièce d'articulation selon l'invention.
Other characteristics and advantages of the present invention will become apparent with the description of some embodiments made with reference to the appended figures in which:
  • FIG. 1 represents a type of door of a refrigeration cabinet compartment of the prior art,
  • FIG. 2 is a view of a refrigeration cabinet having various compartments insulated by doors provided with articulation parts according to the invention,
  • FIG. 3 shows a part of the invention mounted on a door when no constraint is exerted,
  • FIG. 4 shows the part of the invention mounted on a door when it is under stress,
  • · - Figure 5 is a perspective view of a hinge part according to the invention.

La figure 1 représente une porte 1 munie de deux pièces 2 , 3 d'articulation de l'art antérieur. Cette porte est destinée, par exemple, à la fermeture d'un compartiment interne de réfrigérateur.Figure 1 shows a door 1 provided with two parts 2, 3 of articulation of the prior art. This door is intended, for example, for closing an internal refrigerator compartment.

Les éléments d'articulation sont deux pivots 2 , 3 situés sur deux bords opposés de la porte, et destinés à être engagés dans des orifices ménagés dans les parois du réfrigérateur. L'axe de rotation de la porte est l'axe des pivots. Dans l'exemple représenté, cet axe est horizontal.The articulation elements are two pivots 2, 3 located on two opposite edges of the door, and intended to be engaged in orifices formed in the walls of the refrigerator. The axis of rotation of the door is the axis of the pivots. In the example shown, this axis is horizontal.

On constate que si d'une façon quelconque, une contrainte particulière est exercée sur la zone de jonction entre l'un des pivots 2,3 et la porte 1, le pivot et/ou la porte cassent ou sont détériorés.It is noted that if in any way, a particular constraint is exerted on the junction zone between one of the pivots 2,3 and the door 1, the pivot and / or the door break or are damaged.

La figure 2 représente l'intérieur d'une armoire frigorifique 4, fermée par une porte principale 5 et comportant plusieurs compartiments accessibles par des portes 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 munies de pièces d'articulation selon l'invention. Dans cet exemple, chacune des portés pivote autour d'un axe horizontal. Un compartiment supérieur est fermé par une porte 6 articulée grâce à deux pièces 61 et 62 de l'invention. Ces pièces, montrées plus en détail sur les figures 3 , 4 , 5 sont fixées sur la porte 6 et pivotent dans des orifices ménagés dans les parois de l'armoire. Cette porte 6 est représentée dans une position entrouverte.FIG. 2 represents the interior of a refrigeration cabinet 4, closed by a main door 5 and comprising several compartments accessible by doors 6, 7, 8, 9 provided with articulation parts according to the invention. In this example, each of the staves rotates around a horizontal axis. An upper compartment is closed by a door 6 articulated by two parts 61 and 62 of the invention. These parts, shown in more detail in FIGS. 3, 4, 5 are fixed to the door 6 and pivot in orifices made in the walls of the cabinet. This door 6 is shown in a half-open position.

Une seconde porte 7, située au-dessous de la porte 6, est articulée grâce à deux pièces 71 et 72. Cette porte est représentée dans une position ouverte, et en butée contre une porte 8 qui est située sous la porte 7 et représentée dans une position fermée. Cette porte 8 est articulée grâce à deux pièces 81 et 82.A second door 7, located below the door 6, is articulated by means of two parts 71 and 72. This door is shown in an open position, and in abutment against a door 8 which is located under the door 7 and shown in a closed position. This door 8 is articulated by two parts 81 and 82.

Sur cette figure, on aperçoit encore une partie d'une porte 9 située sous la porte 8 et l'une de ses pièces 91 d'articulation.In this figure, we can still see part of a door 9 located under door 8 and one of its articulation parts 91.

La figure 3 montre en détail l'une des pièces 71 d'articulation de la porte 7 en butée contre la porte 8, située dessous.Figure 3 shows in detail one of the parts 71 of articulation of the door 7 in abutment against the door 8, located below.

La pièce 71 d'articulation comporte une assise plate 71a qui est fixée, dans l'exemple représenté, sous le bord inférieur de la porte 7. Cette fixation est assurée soit par des vis, soit par des languettes coopérant avec des orifices ménagés sur le bord inférieur de la porte.The articulation part 71 comprises a flat seat 71 a which is fixed, in the example shown, under the lower edge of the door 7. This fixing is ensured either by screws or by tongues cooperating with orifices provided on the bottom edge of the door.

Dans le prolongement de cette assise 71 , en direction de l'arête déterminée par l'intersection du bord inférieur et du bord latéral de la porte, on trouve une partie 71b qui relie l'assise 71a au pivot non visible sur cette figure.In the extension of this seat 71, in the direction of the edge determined by the intersection of the lower edge and the side edge of the door, there is a part 71 b which connects the seat 71 a to the pivot not visible in this figure .

Le pivot se trouve donc à l'extrémité de la partie 71., et il est engagé dans un orifice ménagé à l'intérieur de la paroi de l'armoire 4.The pivot is therefore at the end of part 71 . , and it is engaged in an orifice formed inside the wall of the cabinet 4.

Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, représenté sur cette figure, le pivot est porté par un méplat 71 c parallèle à la paroi de l'armoire, et situé à l'extrémité de la partie 71b opposée à l'assise 71a.In a preferred embodiment, shown in this figure, the pivot is carried by a flat 71 c parallel to the wall of the cabinet, and located at the end of the part 71 b opposite the seat 71 a .

Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, c'est la partie 71b qui relie l'assise 71a au pivot qui est déformable par élasticité.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is the part 71b that connects the seat to the pivot 71a which is deformable by elasticity.

Sur cette figure, on a également représenté la porte 8 située au-dessous de la porte 7 lorsque cette dernière est fermée. On a également représenté, entre le méplat 71c auquel est fixé le pivot et la paroi de l'armoire 4, une rondelle 10 dont le rôle est de limiter les frottements entre le méplat et la paroi.This figure also shows the door 8 located below the door 7 when the latter is closed. There has also been shown, between the flat 71 c to which the pivot is fixed and the wall of the cabinet 4, a washer 10 whose role is to limit the friction between the flat and the wall.

Sur cette figure, la porte 7 est ouverte et en butée contre le bord supérieur de la porte 8 mais cependant sans contrainte.In this figure, the door 7 is open and in abutment against the upper edge of the door 8 but however without constraint.

La figure 4 permet de visualiser la déformation que subit la pièce d'articulation lorsqu'une contrainte est exercée sur la porte qu'elle soutient. Dans l'exemple représenté, la porte 7 est plaquée contre la porte 8.FIG. 4 makes it possible to visualize the deformation which the articulation part undergoes when a stress is exerted on the door which it supports. In the example shown, the door 7 is pressed against the door 8.

L'assise 71a ne se déforme pas. Par contre, la partie 71b de liaison entre l'assise et le pivot subit une flexion, ce qui évite que la porte 7 soutenue par la pièce d'articulation, ou bien encore la porte 8 contre laquelle cette porte 7 est plaquée, ou bien encore la paroi dans laquelle est engagée le pivot soient détériorées.The seat 71 a does not deform. On the other hand, the connecting part 71 b between the seat and the pivot undergoes bending, which prevents the door 7 supported by the articulation piece, or even the door 8 against which this door 7 is pressed, or although the wall in which the pivot is engaged are deteriorated.

Ainsi la déformation de la pièce d'articulation compense les contraintes subies par les divers éléments constitutifs du dispositif.Thus the deformation of the articulation piece compensates for the stresses undergone by the various constituent elements of the device.

Lorsque la contrainte cesse, l'ensemble reprend sa position initiale sans qu'aucun élément ne soit détérioré.When the stress ceases, the assembly returns to its initial position without any element being damaged.

La figure 5 représente en perspective une pièce d'articulation selon l'invention. Sur cette figure, on aperçoit le pivot 11 en extrémité du méplat 71 porté par la partie déformable 71., assurant la liaison entre le pivot et le méplat et l'assise 71 a de fixation à la porte.Figure 5 shows in perspective a hinge part according to the invention. In this figure, we can see the pivot 11 at the end of the flat 71 carried by the deformable part 71 . , ensuring the connection between the pivot and the flat and the seat 71 a for fixing to the door.

Sur cette figure, on aperçoit également un ensemble de languettes et de reliefs 12 qui est prévu pour assurer la fixation de l'assise 71a et donc de la pièce d'articulation à la porte ou bien encore à tout autre panneau qu'une telle pièce est destinée à articuler.In this figure, we can also see a set of tongues and reliefs 12 which is provided to secure the seat 71a and therefore the hinge part to the door or even to any panel other than such a part. is intended to articulate.

De préférence, la pièce d'articulation de l'invention est réalisée d'un seul bloc, par moulage ou bien encore par injection d'une matière plastique.Preferably, the articulation part of the invention is produced in a single block, by molding or else by injection of a plastic material.

Dans les modes d'utilisation et de fonctionnement décrits, la pièce d'articulation de l'invention permet de faire pivoter une porte autour d'un axe horizontal. De plus, la pièce est fixée sous le bord inférieur de la porte, ce qui entraîne une ouverture vers le bas. Cette utilisation n'est nullement limitative et il est possible d'utiliser les pièces d'articulation de l'invention pour réaliser une ouverture vers le haut, en disposant les pièces au-dessus du bord supérieur d'une porte, ou bien encore une ouverture en pivotement autour d'un axe vertical.In the modes of use and operation described, the articulation part of the invention makes it possible to pivot a door about a horizontal axis. In addition, the part is fixed under the lower edge of the door, which leads to a downward opening. This use is in no way limitative and it is possible to use the articulation parts of the invention to make an opening upwards, by placing the parts above the upper edge of a door, or even a opening in pivoting around a vertical axis.
