Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for fixing and protecting the motor element of accordion doors.
  • motor element is meant the motor, the motor control means, the strap winding shaft, the limit switch element, the electrical cabinet, etc. Thanks to their design, accordion doors can have a large surface area and are ideal for industrial installations, warehouses, hangars, etc.
  • an accordion door comprises a flexible curtain rigidified at regular intervals by horizontal reinforcing bars or a series of articulated horizontal panels; lifting straps fixed at one end to the lower rebar of the flexible curtain or at the base of the lower panel and at the other end to a winding shaft whose rotation is controlled by a motor.
  • the lifting straps are preferably passed through guides arranged on some of the rebar, or on some of the joints connecting two consecutive panels.
  • the base of the lower panel in the case of an accordion door with panels, or some of the reinforcing bars, the lower bar of which in the case of an accordion door with flexible curtain, has a roller at each of their ends which slides in a lateral guide made in the door jambs.
  • the strap winding shaft which overhangs the door, pivots in bearings fixed inside a U-shaped metal beam, - the base of the U being horizontal and placed towards the top -, which forms the lintel.
  • the motor causing the rotation of the strap winding shaft is fixed along one of the door jambs near the top of the door. Its shaft is perpendicular to the strap winding shaft and the two shafts are made integral by a bevel gear optionally including a gear reduction.
  • An accordion door assembly according to the preamble of claim 1 is already available to the public.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks. It consists of a device for fixing and protecting the motor element of the accordion doors.
  • the subject of the invention is an accordion door assembly, of the industrial type for a hangar, warehouse, etc. comprising a portico formed by two vertical lateral uprights joined at their upper ends by a horizontal crosspiece constituted by a U-shaped metal beam to frame a curtain. flexible with horizontal reinforcing bars arranged at regular intervals, lifting straps fixed to the lower bar, a motor element comprising a belt winding shaft, an electric actuating motor and electric motor control members, said drive element being contained in said U-shaped metal beam, characterized in that the horizontal U-shaped beam opens on a face other than the underside and receives a removable cover.
  • FIG 1 is shown schematically the driving element of an accordion door, without its support.
  • This motor element comprises a geared motor 1, a strap winding shaft 2 pivoting in bearings 3, a limit switch assembly 4.
  • the geared motor 1, the axis of which is parallel to the strap winding shaft 2 drives the latter via a transmission chain 5.
  • the limit switch assembly 4 which controls the stopping of the motor when the door reaches its point of maximum opening or its point of total closure , comprises a screw 6 parallel to the winding shaft of the straps 2 and whose rotation is controlled by that of said shaft by means of a transmission chain 7; a cursor 8 for controlling the top and bottom limit switches, movable on the screw 6 and moving to the right or to the left depending on the direction of rotation of the strap winding shaft 2; two top and bottom limit switches 9 and 10, cutting the power to the gear motor 1 when the cursor 8 presses on them; an electrical cabinet 18.
  • FIG. 2 represents a schematic perspective view of the motor element of an accordion door described above, fixed inside a metal beam profiled in U 11, the base of the U being horizontal and oriented downwards .
  • the gearmotor 1 the winding shaft of the straps 2 and the bearings 3 which support it, the end of stroke element 4, the transmission chains 5 and 7.
  • the beam 11 rests at each of its ends on amounts 12 and 13 of the door. It comprises in its horizontal part, a certain number of rectangular openings 14 parallel to its axis, intended for the passage of the lifting straps 15. Inside the beam, these rectangular openings are surrounded by a flange 17, intended to stop falling parts or any fragments of parts.
  • the beam can be lined internally with insulating material 16. It receives a removable cover not shown here, also lined with insulating material. Its two ends are closed.
  • a heating resistor can be placed in the isolated parallelepiped volume thus defined, preferably with a thermostat control.
  • FIG. 3 shows a schematic perspective view of the drive element of an accordion door described in Figure 1 fixed inside a metal beam profiled in U 11, the base of the U being vertical.
  • this second arrangement of the beam two variants are possible as regards the passage of the straps. Either we take the solution adopted on the installation described in Figure 2 by making rectangular openings in the horizontal part of the beam facing down, or, - this is the case shown in Figure 3 -, we have the bearings 3 of the strap winding shaft 2 so that the straps 15 pass tangentially to the edge of the horizontal part of the beam facing downwards.
  • the arrangement of the various members of the driving element in the beam is the same as previously.
  • the beam can also be lined with insulating material 16, it receives a removable vertical cover (not shown in Figure 3) lined with insulating material, and is closed at both ends.
  • the rollers 19 are housed in the notches 20 of a vertical plate 21 in which the ends of the axis of each of them are held.
  • the plate 21 is fixed to a horizontal plate 22, the ends of which rest on the uprights 12, 13.
  • a fixing is provided allowing the position of the plate 21 to be adjusted at will by a directional translation perpendicular to the winding shaft 2: the plate 22 can for example, as shown in FIG. 4, include transverse slots 23 intended to cooperate with bolts 24 welded to lugs 25 of the plate 21.
  • the plate 21 is then secured to the plate 22 by nuts 26.
  • the advantage of this arrangement is that one can, by moving the plate 21, modify the position of the flexible curtain and shift it inside the uprights 12, 13 forwards or backwards, in particular to ensure a better seal depending on whether the curtain is subjected to a dominant pressure coming from the inside or outside.
  • the beam 11 can be covered with an insulating material 16, it receives a removable vertical cover (not shown in the figure) itself lined with insulating material and is closed at both ends.
