Description

L'invention est relative à une gâche destinée à être posée en applique, sur un bord d'encadrement de porte, du genre de celles qui compor­tent au moins un logement destiné à recevoir un pêne d'une serrure montée sur la porte, ce logement étant ménagé dans un coffre extérieur propre à être fixé sur l'encadrement.The invention relates to a keeper intended to be applied as a wall light, on a door frame edge, of the kind which includes at least one housing intended to receive a bolt of a lock mounted on the door, this housing being arranged in a clean external trunk to be fixed on the frame.

L'invention concerne plus particulièrement, parce que c'est dans ce cas que son application semble devoir présenter le plus d'intérêt, mais non exclusivement, une gâche à plusieurs points, destinée à être utilisée avec une serrure à plusieurs pênes.The invention relates more particularly, because it is in this case that its application seems to be of most interest, but not exclusively, a strike at several points, intended to be used with a lock with several bolts.

L'efficacité d'une serrure, dépend, notam­ment, du réglage de la gâche. Il faut, lorsque la porte est fermée et que les pênes sont engagés dans la gâche en position de fermeture, que les appuis prévus dans cette gâche pour les pênes soient en contact avec ces derniers, de manière qu'il n'y ait pas de jeu entre le ou chaque pêne et l'appui correspondant de la gâche.The effectiveness of a lock depends, in particular, on the adjustment of the strike. When the door is closed and the bolts are engaged in the strike in the closed position, the supports provided in this strike for the bolts must be in contact with the latter, so that there is no clearance between the or each bolt and the corresponding support of the strike.

Une telle exigence rend délicat le montage correct de la gâche et nécessite, actuellement, un certain nombre d'essais qui prennent du temps. La pose de la gâche est d'autant plus délicate lorsqu'il y a des décalages à rattrapper entre l'encadrement et la porte elle-même.Such a requirement makes it difficult to assemble the keeper correctly and currently requires a certain number of tests which take time. The installation of the strike is all the more delicate when there are offsets to catch up between the frame and the door itself.

Dans le cas d'une serrure à plusieurs pênes, le problème est encore plus compliqué car une pose correcte exige que tous les pênes, en position de fer­meture, soient simultanément au contact des appuis correspondants de la gâche.In the case of a lock with several bolts, the problem is even more complicated because a correct installation requires that all the bolts, in the closed position, be simultaneously in contact with the corresponding supports of the strike.

L'invention a pour but, surtout, de fournir une gâche permettant un réglage simple et rapide, même s'il s'agit d'une gâche à plusieurs points, de sorte que le temps de pose de cette gâche soit considérablement réduit tout en permettant de satis­faire aux exigences évoquées ci-dessus. On souhaite, en outre, que cette gâche reste d'une fabrication sim­ple et économique.The object of the invention is, above all, to provide a strike allowing a simple and rapid adjustment, even if it is a strike at several points, so that the exposure time of this keeper is considerably reduced while making it possible to meet the requirements mentioned above. It is further desired that this keeper remains simple and economical to manufacture.

Selon l'invention, une gâche destinée à être posée en applique, du genre défini précédemment, est caractérisée par le fait qu'elle comporte, au niveau de chaque logement prévu pour un pêne, une butée montée mobile à l'intérieur du logement, à l'aide de moyens de réglage pouvant être actionnés de l'extérieur du coffre, ces moyens de réglage étant agencés de manière à permettre la mise en pression de la butée contre le pêne correspondant en position de fermeture, et le blocage de la butée dans cette posi­tion à l'encontre d'un effort d'ouverture de la porte qui serait transmis au pêne.According to the invention, a keeper intended to be applied as a wall light, of the kind defined above, is characterized by the fact that it comprises, at each housing provided for a bolt, a stop mounted mobile inside the housing, using adjustment means which can be actuated from outside the boot, these adjustment means being arranged so as to allow the abutment to be pressurized against the corresponding bolt in the closed position, and the stop to be blocked in this position against an effort to open the door which would be transmitted to the bolt.

Généralement, la gâche comporte plusieurs points correspondant à des pênes horizontaux et/ou verticaux, et chaque logement de la gâche correspon­dant à un pêne est équipé de la butée mobile et des moyens de réglage de cette butée.Generally, the keeper has several points corresponding to horizontal and / or vertical bolts, and each housing of the keeper corresponding to a bolt is equipped with the movable stop and means for adjusting this stop.

De préférence, la gâche présente, au niveau de chaque logement, une section transversale ayant une paroi propre à se trouver sensiblement parallèle à la porte lorsqu'elle est fermée, et les moyens de réglage de la butée comprennent des moyens de traction prenant appui sur ladite paroi et propres à exercer une trac­tion de la butée vers la paroi, et des moyens de poussée, prenant également appui sur la paroi, propres à résister à un effort d'ouverture qui serait transmis au pêne.Preferably, the keeper has, at each housing, a cross section having a wall capable of being substantially parallel to the door when it is closed, and the means for adjusting the stop comprise traction means supported on said wall and capable of exerting traction from the stop towards the wall, and thrust means, also bearing on the wall, capable of withstanding an opening force which would be transmitted to the bolt.

Avantageusement, le coffre de la gâche a une section transversale sensiblement en U, constante sur toute sa longeur.Advantageously, the trunk of the strike has a substantially U-shaped cross section, constant over its entire length.

Les susdits moyens de traction peuvent comprendre une vis traversant une ouverture de la paroi du coffre, et engagée dans un trou taraudé prévu dans la butée, cette vis comportant une tête située à l'extérieur du coffre, cette tête étant propre à pren­dre appui contre la paroi.The above traction means can comprise a screw passing through an opening in the wall of the trunk, and engaged in a tapped hole provided in the stop, this screw comprising a head located outside the trunk, this head being able to bear against the wall.

Les moyens de poussée comprennent, avan­tageusement, une vis entièrement située à l'intérieur du coffre, cette vis coopérant avec un autre trou taraudé prévu dans la butée, tandis qu'une ouverture est prévue dans la paroi du coffre, dans l'alignement de la vis, cette ouverture ayant un diamètre inférieur au diamètre de la tête de la vis, mais permettant l'introduction d'un outil pour commander cette vis intérieure de manière à amener sa tête en appui contre la face intérieure de la paroi du logement.The pushing means advantageously comprise a screw entirely located inside the trunk, this screw cooperating with another tapped hole provided in the stop, while an opening is provided in the wall of the trunk, in alignment with the screw, this opening having a diameter less than the diameter of the head of the screw, but allowing the introduction of a tool for controlling this internal screw so as to bring its head into abutment against the internal face of the wall of the housing.

De préférence, une vis de traction et une vis de poussée sont prévues de part et d'autre du pêne.Preferably, a pulling screw and a pushing screw are provided on either side of the bolt.

La butée est avantageusement constituée par un bloc comportant un évidement formant logement pour le pêne tandis que les parties situées de part et d'autre de cet évidement comportent les trous taraudés pour les susdites vis.The stop is advantageously constituted by a block comprising a recess forming a housing for the bolt while the parts situated on either side of this recess include the tapped holes for the aforementioned screws.

Avantageusement, les vis de poussée sont du type à tête cylindrique à six pans creux ; les vis de poussée sont à haute résistance mécanique.Advantageously, the pushing screws are of the cylindrical head type with hexagon socket; the push screws are of high mechanical strength.

L'invention est également relative à une serrure équipée d'une telle gâche.The invention also relates to a lock equipped with such a strike.

L'invention consiste, mises à part les dispositions exposées ci-dessus, en un certain nombre d'autres dispositions dont il sera plus explicitement question ci-après à propos d'un exemple de réalisation particulier décrit avec référence au dessin ci-annexé, mais qui n'est nullement limitatif.

  • La figure 1, de ce dessin, est une vue par­tielle, en élévation, d'une gâche à plusieurs points, conforme à l'invention, posée sur l'encadrement d'une porte, munie d'une serrure à plusieurs pênes.
  • La figure 2 est une section horizontale à plus grande échelle de la gâche au niveau d'une butée non réglée, suivant la ligne II-II, figure 1.
  • La figure 3 est une section semblable à la figure 2, mais avec la butée réglée.
  • La figure 4, enfin, est une coupe suivant la ligne IV-IV, figure 3.
The invention consists, apart from the arrangements set out above, of a certain number of other arrangements which will be more explicitly discussed below in connection with a particular embodiment described with reference to the attached drawing, but which is in no way limiting.
  • FIG. 1, of this drawing, is a partial view, in elevation, of a striker at several points, according to the invention, placed on the frame of a door, provided with a lock with several bolts.
  • Figure 2 is a horizontal section on a larger scale of the keeper at an unadjusted stop, along line II-II, Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 is a section similar to Figure 2, but with the stop set.
  • Figure 4, finally, is a section along the line IV-IV, Figure 3.

En se reportant à la figure 1 on peut voir une gâche 1 à plusieurs points posée en applique sur un encadrement 2 d'une porte 3. Cette porte est articulée sur des gonds d'axe vertical (non représentés) prévus le long du côté vertical de l'encadrement opposé à celui muni de la gâche. La porte 3 est munie sur son bord venant au voisinage de la gâche 1, lorsque la porte est fermée, de la serrure 4 à plusieurs pênes ; deux pênes horizontaux 5, 6 et un pêne vertical haut 7 ont été représentés. D'autres pênes horizontaux et un pêne vertical bas peuvent être prévus.Referring to Figure 1 we can see a striker 1 at several points placed on a frame 2 on a door 3. This door is hinged on hinges of vertical axis (not shown) provided along the vertical side of the frame opposite to that provided with the strike. The door 3 is provided on its edge coming in the vicinity of the keeper 1, when the door is closed, of the lock 4 with several bolts; two horizontal bolts 5, 6 and a high vertical bolt 7 have been shown. Other horizontal bolts and a low vertical bolt can be provided.

La gâche 1 comporte une partie verticale 1a à plusieurs points, fixée sur le bord vertical de l'encadrement 2, pour les pênes horizontaux tels que 5, 6 et au moins une partie horizontale telle que 1b prévue sur le bord supérieur de l'encadrement pour le pêne vertical 7 haut. Une partie horizontale semblable serait prévue pour un pêne vertical bas.The keeper 1 has a vertical part 1 a at several points, fixed on the vertical edge of the frame 2, for horizontal bolts such as 5, 6 and at least one horizontal part such as 1 b provided on the upper edge of the frame for the vertical bolt 7 high. A similar horizontal part would be provided for a low vertical bolt.

Les parties 1a et 1b sont agencées de la même manière, au niveau des logements destinés à recevoir le pêne, de sorte que la description qui suit ne concernera que la partie 1a pour les pênes horizon­taux, mais les mêmes explications sont valables pour une partie telle que 1b associée à un pêne vertical.Parts 1 a and 1 b are arranged in the same way, at the level of the housings intended to receive the bolt, so that the description which follows will only concern part 1 a for horizontal bolts, but the same explanations are valid for a part such as 1 b associated with a vertical bolt.

La gâche 1 comporte, au niveau de chaque pêne, par exemple le pêne 5, un logement tel que 8 destiné à recevoir ce pêne ; une ouverture 9 est prévue dans la paroi latérale de la gâche 1 pour per­mettre au pêne de pénétrer dans le logement 8.The strike 1 includes, at each bolt, for example the bolt 5, a housing such as 8 intended to receive this bolt; an opening 9 is provided in the side wall of the keeper 1 to allow the bolt to enter the housing 8.

Ce logement 8 est ménagé dans un coffre 10 avantageusement constitué par une pièce à section transversale en forme de U dont les ailes 11 et 12 sont verticales et orthogonales au plan moyen de la porte 3 lorsque cette porte est fermée.This housing 8 is formed in a trunk 10 advantageously constituted by a part with a U-shaped cross section whose wings 11 and 12 are vertical and orthogonal to the mean plane of the door 3 when this door is closed.

L'aile 11 la plus éloignée de la porte 3 est en appui par sa tranche 13 contre l'encadrement 2. L'aile 12 a une largeur supérieure à celle de l'aile 11 de manière à présenter une partie 14 propre à être fixée contre la face de l'encadrement 2 qui est en regard de la tranche de la porte 3 lorsque celle-ci est fermée.The wing 11 furthest from the door 3 bears by its edge 13 against the frame 2. The wing 12 has a width greater than that of the wing 11 so as to have a part 14 suitable for being fixed against the face of the frame 2 which is opposite the edge of the door 3 when the latter is closed.

Les ailes 11 et 12 sont reliées, à leur extrémité éloignée de l'encadrement 2, par une paroi 15 sensiblement parallèle à la porte 3 lorsqu'elle est fermée. Des vis de fixation (non représentées) traver­sent cette paroi 15 suivant une direction orthogonale et sont vissées dans l'encadrement 2.The wings 11 and 12 are connected, at their end remote from the frame 2, by a wall 15 substantially parallel to the door 3 when it is closed. Fixing screws (not shown) pass through this wall 15 in an orthogonal direction and are screwed into the frame 2.

La gâche comporte, au niveau de chaque loge­ment tel que 8 pour un pêne, une butée 16 prévue à l'intérieur du logement et montée de manière à pouvoir être déplacée, suivant une direction sensiblement orthogonale au plan moyen de la porte 3 lorsqu'elle est fermée, à l'aide de moyens de réglage R pouvant être actionnés de l'extérieur du coffre 10.The strike includes, at each housing such as 8 for a bolt, a stop 16 provided inside the housing and mounted so as to be able to be moved, in a direction substantially orthogonal to the mean plane of the door 3 when it is closed, using adjustment means R which can be actuated from outside the boot 10.

Les moyens de réglage R comprennent des moy­ens de traction T prenant appui sur la paroi 15 et propres à exercer une traction de la butée 16 vers ladite paroi 15, et des moyens de poussée P prenant également appui sur la paroi 15, propres à résister à un effort d'ouverture qui serait transmis au pêne 5.The adjustment means R comprise traction means T bearing on the wall 15 and suitable for exerting traction from the stop 16 towards said wall 15, and pushing means P also bearing on the wall 15, suitable for resisting an opening effort which would be transmitted to the bolt 5.

Les moyens de traction T comprennent, pour chaque butée 16, des vis 17 par exemple au nombre de deux situées de part et d'autre du pêne 5 et dont les axes sont situés dans un plan orthogonal à l'axe du pêne 5. Ces vis 17 traversent une ouverture 18 prévue dans la paroi 15, et comportent une tête 19 ayant un diamètre supérieur à celui de l'ouverture 18 de manière à pouvoir prendre appui contre la zone extérieure de la paroi 15 entourant cette ouverture 18. La vis 17, à l'intérieur du logement 8, est engagée sur une partie de sa longueur dans un trou taraudé 20 prévu dans la butée 16.The traction means T comprise, for each stop 16, screws 17 for example the number of two located on either side of the bolt 5 and whose axes are located in a plane orthogonal to the axis of the bolt 5. These screws 17 pass through an opening 18 provided in the wall 15, and comprise a head 19 having a diameter greater than that of the opening 18 so as to be able to bear against the external zone of the wall 15 surrounding this opening 18. The screw 17, inside the housing 8, is engaged over part of its length in a hole threaded 20 provided in the stop 16.

Les moyens de poussée P comprennent, pour chaque butée 16, des vis 21, à haute résistance mécanique, par exemple au nombre de deux, situées de part et d'autre du pêne 5 et sensiblement orthogonales au plan moyen de la porte 3 lorsqu'elle est fermée. Les axes des vis 21 sont situés dans un même plan orthogonal à l'axe du pêne 5 en position de fermeture. Le plan des axes des vis 21 dans l'exemple de réalisation montré sur le dessin est parallèle au plan des axes des vis 17. En variante, ces deux plans pour­raient être confondus auquel cas les vis 21 seraient situées, de préférence, entre les vis 17.The pushing means P comprise, for each stop 16, screws 21, with high mechanical strength, for example two in number, located on either side of the bolt 5 and substantially orthogonal to the mean plane of the door 3 when it's closed. The axes of the screws 21 are located in the same plane orthogonal to the axis of the bolt 5 in the closed position. The plane of the axes of the screws 21 in the embodiment shown in the drawing is parallel to the plane of the axes of the screws 17. As a variant, these two planes could be combined in which case the screws 21 would preferably be located between the screws 17.

Les vis 21 sont du type à tête 22 cylin­drique à six pans creux. Chaque vis 21 est engagée dans un trou taraudé 23 de la butée 16. Une ouverture 24 est prévue dans la paroi 15 de manière à se trouver en face du logement à six pans creux de la tête 22. Le diamètre de cette ouverture 24 est inférieur à celui de la tête 22, mais suffisant pour permettre le pas­sage d'une clé à six pans pour manoeuvrer, depuis l'extérieur, la vis 21. La tête 22 peut ainsi prendre appui contre la zone de la surface intérieure de la paroi 15 qui entoure l'ouverture 24.The screws 21 are of the cylindrical head type 22 with hexagon socket. Each screw 21 is engaged in a tapped hole 23 of the stop 16. An opening 24 is provided in the wall 15 so as to be opposite the hexagon socket of the head 22. The diameter of this opening 24 is smaller to that of the head 22, but sufficient to allow the passage of a hexagon wrench to maneuver, from the outside, the screw 21. The head 22 can thus bear against the zone of the interior surface of the wall 15 surrounding the opening 24.

Un évidement 25 peut être prévu dans la butée 16 au débouché du trou taraudé 23 du côté de la paroi 15, pour recevoir la base de la tête 22.A recess 25 may be provided in the stop 16 at the outlet of the tapped hole 23 on the side of the wall 15, to receive the base of the head 22.

La butée 16 est constituée par une sorte de bloc métallique sensiblement en forme de parallélépipède rectangle, qui comporte un évidement 26 ouvert en direction de l'encadrement 2 et dont la paroi 27, opposée à cette ouverture, a une forme qui épouse sensiblement celle du pêne 5 lorsqu'il se trouve dans cet évidement.The stop 16 is constituted by a kind of metal block substantially in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, which has a recess 26 open in the direction of the frame 2 and whose wall 27, opposite this opening, has a shape which substantially matches that of the bolt 5 when it is in this recess.

Ceci étant, l'utilisation et le réglage d'une gâche conforme à l'invention sont les suivants.That said, the use and adjustment of a keeper according to the invention are as follows.

La gâche 1 est montée sur l'encadrement 2 de la porte avec les butées 16, associées à chaque loge­ment 8, dans leur position la plus reculée représentée sur la figure 2.The keeper 1 is mounted on the frame 2 of the door with the stops 16, associated with each housing 8, in their most remote position shown in FIG. 2.

La vis 21 est vissée au maximum dans la butée 16 de sorte que la base de la tête 22 est en appui contre le fond du logement 25. L'existence de ce logement 25 permet de réduire la saillie de la tête 22 par rapport à la face de la butée 16 d'une distance égale à la profondeur dudit logement 25. Les vis 17 sont également vissées au maximum dans la butée 16 de manière à appliquer la tête 22 contre la face intérieure de la paroi 15.The screw 21 is screwed as far as possible into the stop 16 so that the base of the head 22 is in abutment against the bottom of the housing 25. The existence of this housing 25 makes it possible to reduce the projection of the head 22 relative to the face of the stop 16 by a distance equal to the depth of said housing 25. The screws 17 are also screwed as much as possible into the stop 16 so as to apply the head 22 against the inner face of the wall 15.

La serrure 4 ayant été installée sur la porte 3, on ferme cette porte et on agit sur la ser­rure 4 de manière à la mettre en position fermée afin que les différents pênes tels que 5, 6 et 7 pénètrent dans les logements 8 correspondants de la gâche et les évidements 26 des butées 16 associées.The lock 4 having been installed on the door 3, this door is closed and action is taken on the lock 4 so as to put it in the closed position so that the various bolts such as 5, 6 and 7 enter the corresponding housings 8 of the keeper and the recesses 26 of the associated stops 16.

Du fait que la butée 16 occupe sa position la plus reculée, il existe un jeu j (figure 2) entre le fond de l'évidement 26 et le pêne associé tel que 5. Pour régler la butée 16, associée à ce pêne 5, on commence par dévisser suffisamment la vis 17 de manière à éloigner sa tête 19 de la paroi 15, comme représenté en trait mixte sur la figure 2.Because the stop 16 occupies its most remote position, there is a clearance j (FIG. 2) between the bottom of the recess 26 and the associated bolt such as 5. To adjust the stop 16, associated with this bolt 5, we start by sufficiently unscrewing the screw 17 so as to move its head 19 away from the wall 15, as shown in phantom in FIG. 2.

Ensuite, à l'aide d'une clé introduite à travers l'ouverture 24, on agit sur la vis 21, dans le sens d'un dévissage, de manière à écarter la butée 16 de la paroi 15 jusqu'à ce que le jeu j soit totalement rattrapé et que le pêne 5 soit mis en pression contre le fond 27, la tête 22 étant en appui contre la face intérieure de la paroi 15.Then, using a key introduced to through the opening 24, one acts on the screw 21, in the direction of unscrewing, so as to move the stop 16 from the wall 15 until the clearance j is completely caught up and the bolt 5 is set in pressure against the bottom 27, the head 22 being in abutment against the inner face of the wall 15.

On revisse alors la vis 17 jusqu'à ce que la tête 19 vienne en appui contre la face extérieure de la paroi 15 comme représenté sur la figure 3.The screw 17 is then tightened again until the head 19 comes to bear against the external face of the wall 15 as shown in FIG. 3.

On opère de la sorte pour toutes les vis 21 et 17 associées à une butée 16.We operate in this way for all the screws 21 and 17 associated with a stop 16.

Lorsque ces opérations sont terminées, le réglage de la butée 16 est effectué. En position de fermeture, le pêne 5 est en appui contre le fond 27 de la butée 16.When these operations are completed, the adjustment of the stop 16 is made. In the closed position, the bolt 5 bears against the bottom 27 of the stop 16.

Lorsque le pêne 5 est retiré du logement, la butée 16 reste dans sa position de réglage puisqu'elle ne peut s'éloigner de la paroi 15 en raison de la retenue exercée par les vis 17, ni s'approcher de cette paroi 15 du fait de l'action des vis 21.When the bolt 5 is removed from the housing, the stop 16 remains in its adjustment position since it cannot move away from the wall 15 due to the restraint exerted by the screws 17, nor approach this wall 15 of the makes the action of the screws 21.

Lorsque ces opérations ont été effectuées au niveau de toutes les butées 16 associées aux différents pênes, aussi bien sur les parties 1a que 1b de la gàche 1, le réglage est terminé.When these operations were carried out at all 16 stops associated with the various bolts, both parts 1 only 1 b of the striker 1, the setting is completed.

Comme il apparaît des explications qui précèdent, le réglage est effectué porte fermée, sans prendre de mesures, et d'une manière extrêmement rapide, sans avoir à démonter une pièce.As appears from the foregoing explanations, the adjustment is made with the door closed, without taking any measures, and in an extremely rapid manner, without having to dismantle a part.

La solution de l'invention peut convenir à tous types de gâches en applique, même monopoint. Les vis à haute résistance mécanique 21 permettent d'encaisser les efforts susceptibles d'être exercés sur le pêne lors d'une tentative d'ouverture par effraction de la porte 3.The solution of the invention can be suitable for all types of surface mounted strikes, even single point. The high mechanical strength screws 21 allow the forces likely to be exerted on the bolt to be cashed during an attempt to break into the door 3.

La course de réglage de la butée 16 est choisie de manière à être suffisante pour les cas les plus défavorables. On estime qu'une course de réglage (distance entre la position la plus reculée représentée sur la figure 2 et la position la plus avancée) d'environ 12 mm permet de satisfaire pra­tiquement à toutes les situations susceptibles d'être rencontrées au moment de la pose de la serrure et de la gâche.The adjustment stroke of the stop 16 is chosen so as to be sufficient for the most more unfavorable. It is estimated that an adjustment stroke (distance between the most distant position shown in FIG. 2 and the most advanced position) of approximately 12 mm makes it possible to satisfy practically all the situations likely to be encountered at the time of fitting the lock and strike.

La solution de l'invention est particulièrement intéressante pour des portes à recouvrement, ou dans le cas de décalages entre porte et huisserie. Cette solution permet, en outre, de rat­traper l'affaissement d'un joint, dans le cas où un tel joint est prévu sur la porte.The solution of the invention is particularly advantageous for doors with overlap, or in the case of offsets between door and frame. This solution also makes it possible to compensate for the collapse of a seal, in the event that such a seal is provided on the door.
