Abstract
According to the invention a hardware set for coplanar and sliding closet doors is obtained. Said hardware set comprises an upper element (6) attached to the upper part of a door (2) and sliding along horizontal tracks (7) attached to the ceiling (8) of the closet (3) and a lower element (9) attached to the lower part of the same door (2) and sliding along a horizontal track 10 attached to the bottom (11) of the closet (3). The connection between the upper and lower elements (6; 9) and the door (2) is obtained by means of articulated arms (61, 62; 91, 92) which, thanks to their pantograph-like movement, allow the displacement of the door (2) in relation to the sliding plane on the front of the closet when a force stresses the door orthogonally to the longitudinal sliding direction, while sliding elements (64; 84, 85) which are present on the upper element (6) and on the lower element (9) and which match the tracks (7; 10) allow the longitudinal displacement of the door (2) in the front of the closet when a force stresses it in that direction.
An elastic telescopic element (58) connected with the upper element (6) of the hardware set (1) and with the door (2), which is pre-loaded during the opening of the door (2) causes the return of the door to its coplanar position because of its elastic reaction. Means having the purpose of aligning the door, of locking it and of overcoming eventual dead centers during the opening and closing are also present.
Description
- The invention concerns a type of hardware for coplanar sliding doors of clothes closets.
- The word "closet" will be used hereinafter to indicate all pieces of furniture acting in general as containers.
- Closets with sliding doors are special types of closets wherein the doors are sliding horizontally on the front side of the closet, instead of being hinged on its lateral sides. Said doors, which in the known models move on two planes parallel with each other, are supported by suitable hardware which is attached on the bottom and top parts of the closet and allows the sliding motion and the guiding of the doors.
- The use of said type of closets is convenient in all those cases where the space in front of the closet is insufficient to permit the opening of the traditionally hinged doors. They are also used when reasons of an aesthetic nature require it.
- The closets of the known type made according such criterions present however the main inconvenience that, since the doors are not coplanar but, as has already been mentioned, they are arranged on two vertical sliding planes, which are parallel with each other, their aesthetical aspect does not always satisfy the user, who, in most cases prefers a closet presenting an outer flat frontal surface without recesses.
- In order to eliminate the lamented inconvenience and to meet the requirements of the user, closets with coplanar sliding doors have been realized. When the closet is closed, said doors are arranged on a single vertical plane; the opening of the closet occurs by first pushing one of the doors inward in relation to the others, and then by causing it to slide horizontally behind one of the other doors, or by causing one of these to slide in front of the receded door.
- Said closets present the inconvenience that the hardware supporting the doors can only be manufactured at extremely high costs and offers a much limited working reliability. In fact, all the solutions employed for the recession of the door use systems with an excentric or systems with motion transmission pulleys and cables which are elaborate to manufacture, difficult to assemble and very unreliable in their operation. The present invention proposes to eliminate the mentioned inconveniences.
- The main purpose of the invention is to realize a hardware set for coplanar sliding closet doors which is easy to manufacture, to assemble and to adjust and which offers high operating reliability.
- Another purpose of the invention is to realize a hardware set allowing the installation of coplanar sliding doors on closet structures with traditional sliding doors.
- Yet another purpose of the invention is to realize a hardware set allowing the easy opening and closing of the door which it supports even when the weight of said door is considerable.
- Not the least purpose of the invention is that of realizing a hardware set permitting to overcome possible dead centers when the door is being opened and closed.
- All the above mentioned purposes and others, which will be better described hereafter, are obtained through a hardware set for coplanar sliding closet doors, which, in accordance with the patent claims, comprise a fixed upper element permanently attached to the upper part of a door and sliding along horizontal tracks attached to the closet ceiling and a lower element permanently attached to the bottom part of the same door and sliding along a horizontal track attached to the floor of the closet and it is characterized in that both the upper and the lower elements have the shape of frame members, preferably made of metal, each supporting at least two articulated arms, each of which presents one end which is hinged to the door, while the other end is hinged to the frame member, wherein said arms together with the door and the frame member constitute an articulated quadrilateral with a pantograph-like motion in order to obtain the displacement of the door in relation to the sliding plane, when a force stresses the door orthogonally in relation to the longitudinal sliding direction on the front side of the closet and wherein the frame members have sliding elements which match the rails and allow the longitudinal displacement of the door on the front side of the closet when a force stresses it in that direction, a mechanical junction being present between the articulated set of the upper element and the articulated set of the lower element, said mechanic junction granting the simultaneity of the rigid displacement of the articulated quadrilaterals. Moreovers, the articulated set of the upper element causes also the door to return to its coplanar position in relation to the other doors thanks to the elastic reaction of on elastic telescopic element which is connected with it. There are suitable means allowing the alignement of the door following the assembly, the overcoming of its dead centers during the opening and closing operation and the locking of the door in its closed position.
- The advantages arising from the hardware set for coplanar sliding doors according to the invention are a door which can easily be assembled in the closet, a reliable operation, even when the hardware set supports heavy doors, such as those sliding doors on the outer surface of which there are full-size mirrors.
- Moreover, since the hardware set according to the invention consists of a few, easy-to-manufacture elements, it is particularly economic and unexpensive.
- Further scope of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description, and from the drawings, wherein:

- With reference to the mentioned drawings it will be observed in Fig. 1 that the hardware set according to the invention, which is indicated as a whole with 1, is mounted on the
middle door 2 of acloset 3 with three sliding doors, the remaining two being indicated with 4 and 5 respectively. - It will be remarked that the choice of a three-door closet is purely indicative, since the following description applies to closets presenting any number of sliding doors, provided said number is in excess of two.
-
Hardware 1 according to the invention comprises anupper element 6, which is permanently attached to the top part ofdoor 2 and slides along thehorizontal tracks 7, which are attached to theceiling 8 ofcloset 3, and alower element 9, which is permanently attached to the bottom part of thesame door 2 and slides within thehorizontal guide 10, which is attached to thebottom 11 ofcloset 3. - When the closet is closed, the
middle door 2 and theside doors closet 3. - In order to open the closet, it will be necessary first to force the
middle door 2, complete with the hardware set 1 of the invention, in thedirection 12 which is orthogonal to the sliding plane, as shown in Fig. 2. Thus themiddle door 2 is caused to recede in relation to the horizontal sliding plane thanks to the pantograph-like movement of the articulatedarms upper element 6 and of the articulatedarms lower element 9. - The
upper element 6 and thelower element 9, together withdoor 2, thus constitute each an articulated quadrilateral. - After the thrust in
direction 12 has broughtdoor 2 into the space comprised between thesliding tracks lateral doors door 2 can be opened by pushing it horizontally in the direction indicated by arrow 13, as can be observed in Fig. 3. - Thus
door 2 slides horizontally behinddoor 5 until the former it completely disappears behind the latter. - By performing the same operation in reversed order, i.e. by pulling
door 2 in the direction opposed to arrow 13,door 2 slides back to the receded position shown in Fig. 2 and then to the closed position shown in Fig. 1, thanks to the action of the elastic elements which have been pre-loaded during the opening phase. - As can be observed in Fig. 5, the
upper element 6 of the hardware set according to the invention comprises aframe member 63 which supports at its rearsliding rollers 64, which are also visible in the longitudinal cross-section of Fig. 4, while at its front it supports the articulatedarms pivots 65. Each of the articulated arms in turn supports at its free end thestructural supports door 2 through thescrews 68. - In the same way the
lower element 9 comprises aframe member 93 at whose end there are thewheels track 10 visible in Fig. 1, and which is attached to thebottom 11 of the closet. Moreover, to theframe member 93 are connected, through thebearings 95, the articulatedarms structural supports door 2 by means of thescrews 98. - From what has been described it is easy to understand how the
upper element 6 and thelower element 9 together constitute ahardware set 1 which, when connected withdoor 2 allows it to slide horizontally by means of therollers 64 and of thewheels tracks arms door 2 can also move with a rigid vertical movement in the orthogonal direction in relation to its sliding direction. - In the middle of the
upper element 6 there is an elastically articulatedset 51 comprising a L-shaped square 52, which, as can be observed in the Figs. 6 and 7, is attached todoor 2 by means of thescrews 54. - On the shorter arm of the L-
shaped square 52 is connected thearticulated linkage 55 whoselarger plate 56 is attached through a rotatingpivot 57 to theframe member 63 through aslide 53. On the longer arm of the L-shaped square 52 is attached anelastic element 58, visible also in the detail in Fig. 8, whose free end is connected throughpivot 59, which acts as its fulcrum, with theframe member 63 and has the function of granting elasticity to the opening and closing movements ofdoor 2. - The elastic
telescopic element 58, as can be observed in Fig. 8, consists of twosprings 29 slipped over twocylinders 28 which are joined together telescopically and it is activated when the slidingdoor 2 is being opened. - When the sliding
door 2 is closed, the situation is represented in Fig. 6, wherein it can be observed thatdoor 2 is in the coplanar position with thelateral doors telescopic element 58 is completely unloaded, i.e. its twosprings 29 are free. As has already been explained, in order to opendoor 2, it is necessary first to push it in the direction marked with 30, orthogonally in relation to the sliding direction. - When
door 2 is pushed in the above-mentioned direction, it approaches thesliding tracks 7 but can not yet begin any horizontal sliding motion, since it is prevented from doing so by the presence of the guidingrollers 100, which are connected with thelower structure 101 supporting the lateral doors of the closet, as can be observed in Fig. 4. In fact, saidrollers 100 by interfering with the lateral vertical edges ofdoor 2 allow it only to move towards the tracks, i.e. orthogonally in relation to the opening direction. During this operating phase, because of the presence of the articulated quadrilateral, theframe member 63 moves horizontally alongtrack 7 and compresses thesprings 29 of the elastictelescopic element 58 which reaches its maximum stress whendoor 2 is positioned, as can be observed in Fig. 7, in the free space comprised between thesliding track 7 anddoor 5. - At this
point door 2 can slide horizontally and threfore open, since, as can be observed in Fig. 4, the guidingroller 100 no longer constitutes a hindrance for the door, since said roller positions itself within theterminal rabbet 102, thereby freeing the door and even acting as a guiding element. - The elastic
telescopic element 58 with itssprings 29 which in this position are under their maximum stress and therefore exert their maximum force, does not perform however any action, since said force is discharged horizontally between the binding points ofelement 58, i.e. between the square 52 and it articulatedpoint 59. - In order to proceed from this position to the return of door to its coplanar position, it would be sufficient to lightly pull it in the direction orthogonal to the sliding direction. Thus, the elastic
telescopic element 58, which no longer arranges itself horizontally, as shown in Fig. 7, but in a slightly slanted position, would allow its springs to develop their elastic back stroke, whose direction orthogonal to the sliding direction ofdoor 2 would cause the latter to go back automatically to its coplanar position to theother doors - The stress force of the
springs 29 is adjustable as a function of the compenetration of their windings in thecommon area 17. - In order to make the initial movement easier, thus avoiding to exert traction force on
door 2, aspring 99 is connected with theframe member 93. - Said
spring 99 is compressed between theframe member 93 anddoor 2, when the latter is in the position represented in Fig. 7. It is the presence of thisspring 99 which by overcoming the resistence of the initial separation allowsdoor 2 to go back immediately to the position coplanar with theother doors rollers 100. - In order the upper and lower articulated quadrilaterals to work simultaneously on
door 2, thelower element 9 belonging to the hardware set 1 also presents in its middle an articulatedset 61 comprising a L-shapedsquare 62. It is attached to the lower part ofdoor 2 by means of thescrews 64 and it presents at its shorter arm an articulatedlinkage 65 connected through aplate 106 with theframe member 93 by means of arotating pivot 107. The upper articulated set 51 and thelower one 61 are connected with their respective articulatedlinkages vertical rod 40 which guarantees their simultaneous rigid movement, thereby guaranteeing also the rigid movement ofdoor 2 connected with them. - On the basis of what has been described so far it can be understood that the purpose of obtaining a hardware set for a coplanar sliding door, allowing an easy operation has been reached. In fact, it has been demonstrated that it is sufficient to operate even with a single hand in order to open and close the door, while exerting limited efforts.
- In order to make easier the assembly of the hardware set on
door 2 ofcloset 3 and in order to allow an easy adjustment permitting the recovery of possible clearances or differences in the alignment with theother doors lower frame member 93 presents thewheel 85 which is connected with theframe member 93 itself throughbracket 83 andpivot 81, around which it can turn, while thewheel 84 is attached through bracket 82. Therefore, the vertical position ofwheel 85 can vary in relation to the longitudinal axis of theframe member 93, thereby permitting the alignment ofdoor 2 with the remainingdoors - This is done by adjusting an
appropriate screw 86 which besides acting as an element for the adjustment of the height ofwheel 85 in relation to the longitudinal axis of theframe member 93, also acts as a contrasting element preventing the complete revolution ofbracket 83 aroundpivot 81, since its axis in relation to pivot 81 is out of alignment by avalue 87. - It can therefore be understood that the hardware set according to the invention allows an easy assembly of the door in the closet and just as easy an adjustment of its alignment.
- When the
middle door 2, which is part of the three-door closet 3, has been assembled into position, its configuration is that shown in detail in Fig. 10, wherein the three doors, themiddle one 2 and thelateral ones door 2 it is necessary to exert on it a force in the direction indicated byarrow 30, visible in Fig. 11, by means of whichdoor 2 positions itself between the slidingtracks 7 and thelateral doors arrow 31, as can be observed in Fig. 12, it is moved to the right until it is completely hidden from sight behind thelateral door 4; thus thecentral part 32 ofcloset 3 is accessible, as can be observed in Fig.12. If, on the other hand, the left-hand space 33 is to be made accessible, as can be observed in Fig. 13, it will be necessary first to push inward themiddle door 2 by applying aforce 30, as represented in Fig. 11 and then, by applyng on door 5 a lateral force to the right 34, bring it into the position represented in Fig. 13, such as to completely hidedoor 2 and open the access tospace 33, as can be observed in Fig. 13. - If, on the other hand the
space 35 is to be made accessible, as can be seen in Fig. 14, it will be necessary to apply on door 2 aforce 30, as represented in Fig. 11 and then pushdoor 4 to the left by applying aforce 36, as shown in Fig. 14. - By following what has been described, it will be possible to obtain closets having more than three doors, and in that case it will be necessary to provide more than one sliding door with the hardware set according to the invention.
- Thus, for instance, the Figs from 15 to 21 show a
closet 120 comprising fourdoors doors - By operating in the manner described before, i.e. by appropriately acting on the
middle doors lateral doors space 130 represented in Fig. 16, or tospace 131 represented in Fig. 17, or tospace 132 of Fig. 18, or yet to space 133 represented in Fig. 19. It is also possible to have simultaneously access to the twocentral spaces lateral spaces - On the basis of what has been described, it can be understood that the hardware set according to the invention permits to obtain closets with a plurality of doors and with the possibility of combined openings of the doors.
- In order to make easier the operations of opening and closing
door 2 by overcoming the dead centers, the hardware set according to the invention presents a shock-absorbingset 20, which is visible in the Figs. 6, 7 and 9 and which is mounted on the slidingtrack 7 of theupper element 6 in the position opposite to the sliding and opening direction ofdoor 2. The presence of said shock-absorbing set facilitates the overcoming of the dead centers whiledoor 2 is being moved. - More specifically, it facilitates the beginning of the lateral sliding motion of
door 2 and, therefore, of its opening operation, afterdoor 2 has been brought into its receded position in relation to thelateral doors door 2, it is necessary to push it back in relation to the plane of thelateral doors pressure 30, as shown in Fig. 6. It has also been said that during thisdisplacement motion door 2 is bound by therollers 100, so that its displacement occurs exactly orthogonally to the direction of the lateral sliding. The articulatedarms entire frame member 63 with which they are connected is displaced to the right in the direction ofarrow 21, as shown in Fig. 6. This causes the compression ofclamp 22 which will loadspring 23 of the shock- absorbingset 20, which pushes againstclamp 24, which is fixed within the slidingtrack 7. When the door has reached the end of its backward movement in relation to the plane of thedoors rollers 100, in relation to which it can even slide more easily thanks to the presence ofrabbet 102 obtained in its lower edge and visible in Fig. 4. The situation is now represented in Fig. 7, whereinspring 23 is free to expand and unloads the force accumulated during the compression, thereby displacing theframe member 63 and, as a consequence,door 2, which is attached to it, in the opening direction indicated byarrow 25. - The shock-absorbing
set 20 also performs the action of overcoming the dead center ofdoor 2 during its return movement to its coplanar position during the closing phase. If, in fact, because of the application of an excessive closing force,door 2 were horizontally displaced too far the right in the direction shown byarrow 26 of Fig. 9, it would enter into the area of interference of guidingroller 100 and would not go back to its coplanar position with thedoor set 20 prevents this from happening. In fact, in this case, an excessive opening force indirection 26 would compressspring 23, which would then, by unloading itself after this compression force has ceased, causedoor 2 to move to the left in the direction ofarrow 27, through the interference of themobile clamp 22 against theupper frame member 63. As soon asdoor 2 arranges itself in the space comprised between the guidingrollers 100, it goes back to its coplanar position thanks first to the action ofspring 99 and then to the action of thetelescopic element 58. - The hardware set according to the invention also presents a
lock 70 represented in the Figs 22 to 25. By preventing the rotation of thevertical rod 40, saidlock 70blocks door 2 in its coplanar position in relation to thelateral doors door 2 and, therefore, the access tocloset 3. - As can be observed in Fig. 22,
lock 70 comprises acylindrical block 71, which is inserted through the thickness ofdoor 2 and presents at the exterior of the door anescutcheon 72 through which it is operated by inserting theremovable key 74. Thecylindrical block 71 presents a crescent-shapedarea 73 which is obtained by cutting off part of the surface of thecylindrical block 71, thus obtaining a right-angle flat undercut 75. When thecylindrical block 71 is arranged with the crescent-shapedarea 73 in the position shown in the Figs. 22 and 23, thevertical rod 40 can perform a 360 degrees rotation in any direction, since thescrew 41, which is attached to it does not interfere with thecylindrical block 71 of the lock. Under theseconditions door 2 can be opened. When, on the other hand, by turningkey 74block 71 is rotated by 90 degrees, as represented in the Figs. 24 and 25,screw 41 is prevented from rotating bycrescent 73, so that thevertical rod 40, which can not rotate, prevents any movement ofdoor 2. Thus the closet can not be opened. On the basis of the foregoing description it can be understood that the invention reaches all the proposed purposes. First of all the main purpose of the invention has been reached, i.e. a hardware set for coplanar sliding doors of closets, which is easy to manufacture, easy to assemble and adjust and which offers a high working reliability. In fact, on the basis of what has been described, it has been possible to observe that the hardware set according to the invention consists of structural or tubular elements, preferably made of metal and joined together by means of joining elements, such as, for instance, pivots. Such a construction is easy to manufacture and also offers a high working reliability, particularly when one considers that rotating elements, such as pulleys or excentrics are completely eliminated, as are transmission means or ropes which jeopardize the working reliability, as is the case of hardware sets manufactured according to the known technique. - On the contrary, it has been observed that the operation of the hardware set according to the invention is based solely on the relative movement of elements which are rigidly joined together by pivots.
- It has also been observed how easy the assembly of the hardware set on the doors as well as the assembly of the doors in the closet are and how easy it is to adjust the coplanar position of the door through a simple screw adjustment.
- Moreover, it has been observed that advantagesously according to the invention a hardware set has been obtained which also reaches the the purpose of improving the overcoming of dead centers which the door encounters while it is being opened and closed, without requiring any effort on the part of the operator. This fact is extremely important when doors supporting full-size mirrors extending to the their entire height and width are mounted on the closet.
- During the manufacturing phase the hardware set according to the invention may undergo various changes and modifications both on an aesthetic and a functional nature with a purpose to improve its functionality or reliability or even to make its manufacture easier; said changes and modifications will however not exceed the scope of the present invention.
