Description

L'invention a trait à un caisson monobloc pour volet roulant conforme au préambule de la revendication 1.The invention relates to a monobloc box for a rolling shutter in accordance with the preamble of claim 1.

En fait, on connaît déjà, notamment, par le document FR-A-2.403.445, un caisson pour volet roulant comportant un profilé formant coffre qui, dans ce cas, présente une section carrée et est constitué de profilés en équerre dont l'un constitue la paroi supérieure et la paroi frontale et l'autre la paroi arrière et la paroi inférieure. En fait, ces profilés sont reliés, l'un à l'autre, par l'intermédiaire de moyens d'emboîtement associés, respectivement, à la paroi supérieure et à la paroi arrière de ce caisson.In fact, we already know, in particular, from document FR-A-2,403,445, a box for rolling shutter comprising a section forming a box which, in this case, has a square section and is made up of square sections, the one constitutes the upper wall and the front wall and the other the rear wall and the lower wall. In fact, these sections are connected to each other by means of interlocking means associated, respectively, with the upper wall and with the rear wall of this box.

Selon d'autres modes de réalisation connus, ce dernier peut être réalisé par un profilé de section en "U" et un couvercle frontal permettant d'obturer le quatrième côté dudit caisson.According to other known embodiments, the latter can be produced by a "U" section profile and a front cover making it possible to close the fourth side of said box.

En fait, ce couvercle ou encore un profilé en forme d'équerre est nécessairement amovible pour permettre l'accès à un arbre logé dans le caisson et sur lequel s'enroule ou duquel se déroule un tablier formé de lames enfilées les unes dans les autres. Cet arbre est maintenu en rotation, à chacune de ses extrémités, par l'intermédiaire de joues supports constituant en outre, des flasques latéraux obturant le caisson du volet roulant, au niveau de ses extrémités.In fact, this cover or a profile in the form of a square is necessarily removable to allow access to a shaft housed in the box and on which is wound or from which takes place an apron formed of blades threaded into each other. . This shaft is kept in rotation, at each of its ends, by means of support cheeks further constituting side flanges closing the casing of the rolling shutter, at its ends.

Dans le cadre du document FR-A-2.403.445, ces joues supports se présentent sous forme de boîtiers constitués, d'une part, d'un flasque de dimension ajustée à l'espace interne du caisson et définissant un logement susceptible d'accueillir un moyen d'entraînement, tel qu'une poulie. D'autre part, ce boîtier est défini par un couvercle lequel est rendu solidaire du flasque précité de manière à refermer le logement constitué par ce dernier, tout en venant obturer les extrémités du ou des profilés composant le caisson.In the context of document FR-A-2,403,445, these support cheeks are in the form of housings consisting, on the one hand, of a flange of dimension adjusted to the internal space of the box and defining a housing capable of accommodate a drive means, such as a pulley. On the other hand, this box is defined by a cover which is made integral with the aforementioned flange so as to close the housing formed by the latter, while closing off the ends of the section or sections making up the box.

Plus précisément, la flasque est rendu solidaire du caisson par l'intermédiaire de moyens de fixation appropriés et se situe, sensiblement, dans le même plan vertical que des coulisses latérales s'étendant sous ledit caisson et rendus solidaires du cadre dormant de la porte, fenêtre ou analogue. En fait, dans ces coulisses latérales se déplacent les extrémités latérales des lames composant le tablier du volet roulant.More specifically, the flange is made integral with the box by means of suitable fixing means and is located, substantially, in the same vertical plane as lateral slides extending under said box and made integral with the frame of the door, window or the like. In fact, in these lateral slides move the lateral ends of the blades making up the roller shutter deck.

Le couvercle obturant le logement défini par ce flasque, assure, également, le maintien en rotation d'une des extrémités de l'arbre sur lequel et duquel s'enroule et se déroule le tablier dans la mesure où il reçoit, soit un palier dans lequel est insérée cette extrémité de l'arbre soit un tenon mâle s'engageant dans un alésage réalisé dans ce dernier ou encore le moteur électrique dont l'arbre de sortie est engagé dans une extrémité de l'arbre creux support du tablier.The cover closing the housing defined by this flange, also ensures the maintenance in rotation of one of the ends of the shaft on which and from which the apron is wound and unwound insofar as it receives, i.e. a bearing in which is inserted this end of the shaft is a male stud engaging in a bore made in the latter or the electric motor whose output shaft is engaged in one end of the hollow support shaft of the deck.

Finalement, l'on observe que ce couvercle jouant le rôle, tel qu'indiqué, de flasque latéral refermant le caisson à hauteur de l'une de ses extrémités, remplit, en soi, la fonction de joue support. En effet, le flasque, disposé à l'intérieur du caisson, n'a pour but que de délimiter, par rapport audit couvercle, un logement susceptible d'accueillir des moyens d'entraînement ainsi protégés des lames composant le tablier.Finally, it is observed that this cover playing the role, as indicated, of a side flange closing the box at one of its ends, fulfills, in itself, the function of support cheek. In fact, the flange, disposed inside the box, only aims to delimit, with respect to said cover, a housing capable of accommodating drive means thus protected from the blades making up the deck.

Ainsi, ce caisson de volet roulant, décrit dans le document FR-A-2.403.445 présente un certain nombre d'inconvénients liés à sa commodité d'utilisation.Thus, this roller shutter box, described in document FR-A-2,403,445 has a number of drawbacks related to its convenience of use.

Notamment, il convient d'observer que la position des moyens d'entraînement et, plus particulièrement, du dispositif de manoeuvre tel que chaîne, courroie ou analogue, peut être variable par rapport à la joue support, puisque ce dispositif de manoeuvre doit être plus ou moins écarté du plan médian vertical du tablier selon que les montants du cadre dormant sont plus ou moins larges. Or, en raison de la disposition de la joue support, sous forme d'un boîtier, nécessairement à l'extrémité du caisson du volet roulant, il est nécessaire, en cas d'adaptation de la position de ladite joue support et, par conséquent, du dispositif de manoeuvre par rapport au plan médian vertical du tablier, de modifier, également, la longueur du profilé composant ledit caisson.In particular, it should be observed that the position of the drive means and, more particularly, of the operating device such as chain, belt or the like, can be variable relative to the supporting cheek, since this operating device must be more or less apart from the vertical median plane of the deck depending on whether the uprights of the sleeping frame are more or less wide. However, due to the arrangement of the support cheek, in the form of a box, necessarily at the end of the casing of the rolling shutter, it is necessary, in the event of adaptation of the position of said support cheek and, consequently , of the operating device with respect to the vertical median plane of the deck, also to modify the length of the section making up said box.

En outre la position de cette joue support, sous forme de boîtier, et la profondeur dudit boîtier sont dépendants du type de mécanisme d'entraînement utilisé.In addition, the position of this support cheek, in the form of a housing, and the depth of said housing are dependent on the type of drive mechanism used.

L'invention telle qu'elle est caractérisée dans les revendications a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients et, pour cela, consiste en un caisson monobloc pour volet roulant composé d'un profilé de section en "U", formant coffre et réalisé, de préférence, en matière plastique ou en métal dont chaque extrémité est obturée par un flasque latéral solidaire des chants latéraux dudit profilé et d'un couvercle frontal amovible permettant d'accéder à au moins un arbre logé dans le profilé et sur lequel s'enroule ou duquel se déroule un tablier formé d'une pluralité de lames, chaque arbre présentant des bouts d'arbres maintenus par des joues supports situées dans le même plan vertical que les coulisses solidaires du cadre dormant et d'une fenêtre, porte-fenêtre ou analogue et servant de guide aux extrémités latérales des lames, l'un de ces bouts d'arbres étant muni d'un dispositif de manoeuvre placé, par rapport au tablier au-delà de la joue support correspondante, lesdites joues supports étant pourvues de moyens assurant une liaison directe entre elles et le cadre formant de la fenêtre, porte-fenêtre ou analogue, ces joues supports étant, par ailleurs, indépendantes des flasques latéraux.The invention as characterized in the claims aims to remedy these drawbacks and, for this, consists of a one-piece box for rolling shutter composed of a sectional section in "U" shape forming a trunk and produced, preferably plastic or metal, each end of which is closed by a lateral flange secured to the lateral edges of said profile and a removable front cover allowing access to at least one shaft housed in the profile and on which is wound or from which takes place an apron formed of a plurality of blades, each tree having tree ends held by supporting cheeks situated in the same vertical plane as the slides secured to the sleeping frame and to a window, French window or analogous and serving as a guide at the lateral ends of the blades, one of these ends of the shafts being provided with an operating device placed, with respect to the apron beyond the cheek support corre spondant, said support cheeks being provided with means ensuring a direct connection between them and the window-forming frame, French window or the like, these support cheeks being, moreover, independent of the lateral flanges.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les moyens assurant la liaison entre les joues-supports et le cadre dormant sont une embase périphérique perpendiculaire au corps de la joue-support contre laquelle prennent appui les faces internes du profilé de section en "U" et du couvercle frontal amobile.According to another characteristic of the invention, the means ensuring the connection between the support cheeks and the sleeping frame are a peripheral base perpendicular to the body of the support cheek against which the internal faces of the sectional section in "U" shape bear. and the movable front cover.

Selon une autre caractéristique, l'embase périphérique comporte deux ailes disposées de part et d'autre du corps de la joue-support et situées dans un même plan perpendiculaire au corps de la joue-support, ces ailes étant munies d'orifices pour le passage d'éléments de fixation dont une partie assure la fixation des joues supports sur la traverse du cadre dormant et dont l'autre partie assure la fixation du profilé en "U" sur les joues-supports.According to another characteristic, the peripheral base comprises two wings arranged on either side of the body of the cheek-support and located in the same plane perpendicular to the body of the cheek-support, these wings being provided with orifices for the passage of fasteners, one part of which secures the support cheeks on the cross member of the frame and the other part of which ensures the fixing of the "U" profile on the support cheeks.

Les avantages de l'invention consistent essentiellement en ce que les joues-supports sont indépendantes des flasques latéraux, ce qui permet de rallonger, à volonté, l'écart entre les joues-supports et les flasques latéraux pour loger dans cet espace le dispositif de manoeuvre à un emplacement déterminé par la largeur des montants du cadre dormant et, par conséquent, en fonction de la position du dispositif de commande actionnant le dispositif de manoeuvre.The advantages of the invention essentially consist in that the support cheeks are independent of the lateral flanges, which makes it possible to lengthen, at will, the gap between the support cheeks and the lateral flanges to accommodate in this space the device for maneuver at a location determined by the width of the uprights of the sleeping frame and, consequently, as a function of the position of the control device actuating the operating device.

Par ailleurs, en raison de la symétrie de l'embase périphérique par rapport au corps vertical de la joue-support, il suffit de fabriquer un seul type de joue-support permettant indifféremment une utilisation à droite ou à gauche pour un bout d'arbre muni ou non du dispositif de manoeuvre.Furthermore, due to the symmetry of the peripheral base relative to the vertical body of the cheek-support, it suffices to manufacture a single type of cheek-support allowing either a right or left use for a shaft end with or without the operating device.

Du fait qu'il existe entre le cadre dormant et les joues-support une liaison directe, les efforts du volet roulant sont transmis directement au cadre dormant et le rôle du profilé est limité à un simple rôle d'habillage.Because there is a direct connection between the sleeping frame and the supporting cheeks, the forces of the roller shutter are transmitted directly to the sleeping frame and the role of the profile is limited to a simple covering role.

On se réfère aux trois figures.We refer to the three figures.

On dispose sur la traverse supérieure 1 d'un cadre dormant 2 contre lequel vient prendre appui l'ouvrant 3 d'une fenêtre, porte-fenêtre ou analogue 4, un caisson monobloc 5 d'un volet roulant 6.There is on the upper cross member 1 a frame 2 which bears against the opening 3 of a window, French window or the like 4, a one-piece box 5 of a rolling shutter 6.

Ce caisson monobloc 5 comporte un profilé de section en "U" 7 formant coffre et réalisé, de préférence, en matière plastique ou en métal. Les deux ailes parallèles 8, 9 sont disposées horizontalement, alors que la paroi 10 reliant ces dernières est disposée verticalement. Les extrémités libres 11, 12 des deux ailes parallèles 8, 9 sont reliées entre elles par un couvercle frontal 13. Des moyens de clipage assurent la liaison entre le profilé 7 et le couvercle frontal 13.This one-piece box 5 has a "U" section profile 7 forming a trunk and preferably made of plastic or metal. The two parallel wings 8, 9 are arranged horizontally, while the wall 10 connecting the latter is arranged vertically. The free ends 11, 12 of the two parallel wings 8, 9 are interconnected by a front cover 13. Clipping means provide the connection between the profile 7 and the front cover 13.

On obture les extrémités latérales 14, 15 du profilé 7 par un flasque latéral 16, 17 présentant sur sa face interne 18 un cadre 19 s'emboîtant dans le profilé 7, alors que le bord périphérique 20 vient prendre appui contre le chant 21 du profilé 7.The lateral ends 14, 15 of the profile 7 are closed off by a lateral flange 16, 17 having on its internal face 18 a frame 19 which fits into the profile 7, while the peripheral edge 20 comes to bear against the edge 21 of the profile 7.

Le maintien de ce flasque latéral 16, 17 est assuré par des éléments de fixation (non représentés) traversant des trous 22, 23 réalisés dans le bord périphérique 20 et s'engageant transversalement dans l'âme des deux ailes parallèles 8, 9 de la paroi 10 et du couvercle frontal 13. Du fait que, conformément à l'invention, aucun effort du volet roulant 6 n'est transmis aux flasques latéraux 16, 17, les éléments de fixation ne servent qu'au maintien des flasques latéraux 16, 17.This lateral flange 16, 17 is maintained by fixing elements (not shown) passing through holes 22, 23 made in the peripheral edge 20 and engaging transversely in the web of the two parallel wings 8, 9 of the wall 10 and the front cover 13. Because, in accordance with the invention, no force from the rolling shutter 6 is transmitted to the side flanges 16, 17, the fastening elements only serve to hold the side flanges 16, 17.

Dans ce profilé 7 est logé au moins un arbre 25 sur lequel s'enroule ou se déroule un tablier 26 formé de lames 27, 28 enfilées les unes dans les autres. Les extrémités latérales 29, 30 des lames 27, 28 sont guidées par des coulisses 31, 32 solidaires du chant interne 33 des montants 34 du cadre dormant 2.In this section 7 is housed at least one shaft 25 on which is wound or unwound an apron 26 formed of blades 27, 28 threaded into each other. The lateral ends 29, 30 of the blades 27, 28 are guided by slides 31, 32 integral with the internal edge 33 of the uprights 34 of the frame 2.

On engage dans les extrémités latérales de l'arbre 25 des bouts d'arbre maintenus par des joues-supports 36, 37. L'un des bouts d'arbre 35, traversant la joue-support 36, est pourvu à son autre extrémité d'un dispositif de manoeuvre 38. Ainsi, ce dernier est disposé par rapport au tablier 26 au-delà de la joue-support 36.The ends of the shaft 25 are engaged in the lateral ends of the shaft 25 held by support cheeks 36, 37. One of the shaft ends 35, passing through the support cheek 36, is provided at its other end d 'an operating device 38. Thus, the latter is arranged relative to the apron 26 beyond the cheek-support 36.

Conformément à l'invention, les joues-supports 36, 37 sont indépendantes des flasques latéraux 16, 17 et, de ce fait, il est possible de rallonger le profilé 7 et de le faire dépasser plus ou moins par rapport au montant 34 du cadre dormant 2. Ainsi, on peut agrandir ou diminuer l'espace 39 situé entre les joues-supports 36, 37 et les flasques latéraux 16, 17 et déplacer le dispositif de manoeuvre 38 en fonction de la position d'un dispositif de commande (non représenté) permettant d'actionner le dispositif de manoeuvre 38, la position du dispositif de commande dépendant de la largeur des montants 34 du cadre dormant 2. Ainsi, l'espace 39 est fonction du plan de liaison entre le dispositif de commande et le dispositif de manoeuvre 38 par rapport aux coulisses 31, 32.According to the invention, the support cheeks 36, 37 are independent of the lateral flanges 16, 17 and, therefore, it is possible to lengthen the profile 7 and to make it exceed more or less relative to the upright 34 of the frame dormant 2. Thus, it is possible to enlarge or reduce the space 39 situated between the supporting cheeks 36, 37 and the lateral flanges 16, 17 and to move the operating device 38 according to the position of a control device (not shown) for actuating the operating device 38, the position of the control device depending on the width of the uprights 34 of the sleeping frame 2. Thus, the space 39 is a function of the connection plane between the control device and the device maneuver 38 relative to the slides 31, 32.

Du fait que les joues-supports 36, 37 sont indépendantes, il est nécessaire de prévoir des moyens assurant un maintien solide de celles-ci, maintien solide nécessaire du fait que lesdites joues-supports 36, 37 doivent absorber les efforts du volet roulant 6.Due to the fact that the support cheeks 36, 37 are independent, it is necessary to provide means ensuring a solid support for these, solid support necessary because said support cheeks 36, 37 must absorb the forces of the roller shutter 6 .

Selon l'invention les joues-supports 36, 37 sont reliées au cadre dormant 2 par des moyens de liaison 40. Un de ces moyens de liaison est constitué par une embase périphérique 41 solidaire du pourtour 42 du corps 43 de la joue-support 36, 37 et disposée perpendiculairement audit corps 43. Sur cette embase périphérique 41 prennent appui les faces internes 44, 45, 46 des ailes parallèles 8, 9 et de la paroi 10 ainsi que la face interne 47 du couvercle frontal 13. De ce fait, le rôle du profilé 7 et du couvercle frontal 13 est limité à un rôle d'habillage des différents éléments 25, 26, 35, 36, 37, 38 logés dans le profilé 7.According to the invention the support cheeks 36, 37 are connected to the sleeping frame 2 by connection means 40. One of these connection means consists of a peripheral base 41 secured to the periphery 42 of the body 43 of the support cheek 36 , 37 and disposed perpendicularly to said body 43. On this peripheral base 41 are supported the internal faces 44, 45, 46 of the parallel wings 8, 9 and of the wall 10 as well as the internal face 47 of the front cover 13. As a result, the role of the profile 7 and of the front cover 13 is limited to a role of covering the various elements 25, 26, 35, 36, 37, 38 housed in the profile 7.

Cette embase périphérique 41 comporte deux ailes 48, 49 disposées de part et d'autre du corps 43 de la joue-support 36, 37 et situées dans un même plan perpendiculaire audit corps 43 de la joue-support 36, 37.This peripheral base 41 comprises two wings 48, 49 arranged on either side of the body 43 of the support cheek 36, 37 and located in the same plane perpendicular to said body 43 of the support cheek 36, 37.

Chaque aile 48, 49 présente des orifices 50, 51 pour le passage d'éléments de fixation (non représentés).Each wing 48, 49 has orifices 50, 51 for the passage of fastening elements (not shown).

Selon un premier mode de réalisation, les orifices de l'aile intérieure 49 permettent la fixation du profilé 7 sur les joues-supports 36, 37 alors que les orifices de l'aile extérieure 48 permettent une fixation solide des joues-supports 36, 37 sur la traverse supérieure 1 du cadre dormant 2.According to a first embodiment, the orifices of the inner wing 49 allow the fixing of the profile 7 on the cheeks-supports 36, 37 while the orifices of the outer wing 48 allow a solid fixation of the cheeks-supports 36, 37 on the upper cross member 1 of the frame 2.

Selon un second mode de réalisation, on fixe les deux ailes 48, 49 des joues-supports 36, 37 sur la traverse supérieure 1 du cadre dormant 2 par l'intermédiaire d'éléments de fixation traversant simplement le profilé 7, le nombre de ces éléments de fixation étant fonction de la largeur de ladite traverse supérieure 1. Dans ce cas, le profilé 7 est fixé sur le tronçon vertical de l'embase périphérique 41.According to a second embodiment, the two wings 48, 49 of the support cheeks 36, 37 are fixed to the upper cross member 1 of the fixed frame 2 by means of fixing elements simply passing through the profile 7, the number of these fastening elements being a function of the width of said upper cross member 1. In this case, the profile 7 is fixed to the vertical section of the peripheral base 41.

Pour consolider la fixation des joues-supports 36, 37, on prévoit, pour chacune des joues, un second moyen de liaison formé par une patte de liaison 52 dont l'extrémité supérieure 53 est solidaire de la joue-support 36, 37 et l'extrémité inférieure 54 s'engage dans une lumière 55 pratiquée dans l'extrémité supérieure 56 des coulisses 31, 32. Ainsi, les joues-supports 36, 37 sont disposées dans le même plan vertical que les coulisses 31, 32 assurant un guidage constant des extrémités latérales 29, 30 des lames 27, 28 du tablier 26 et ceci, depuis l'arbre 25.To consolidate the fixing of the supporting cheeks 36, 37, a second connecting means is provided for each of the cheeks, formed by a connecting tab 52 whose upper end 53 is integral with the supporting cheek 36, 37 and l the lower end 54 engages in a slot 55 formed in the upper end 56 of the slides 31, 32. Thus, the support cheeks 36, 37 are arranged in the same vertical plane as the slides 31, 32 ensuring constant guidance lateral ends 29, 30 of the blades 27, 28 of the deck 26 and this, from the shaft 25.

L'extrémité inférieure 54 de la patte de liaison 52 comporte un retour de rigidification 57 dont la largeur 58 correspond à la largeur 59 de la lumière 55 pour assurer un contact franc entre la patte de liaison 52 et la coulisse 31, 32. Cette dernière présente au moins un orifice 60 permettant le passage d'au moins un élément de fixation 61 traversant également au moins un orifice 62 réalisé dans la patte de liaison 52. Ainsi, la fixation de la joue-support 36, 37 est assurée, d'une part, par les éléments de fixation engagés dans les orifices 50, 51 de l'aile extérieure 48 de l'embase périphérique 41, assurant la fixation des joues-supports 36, 37 sur la traverse 1 du cadre dormant 2, et, d'autre part, par les éléments de fixation 61 assurant la fixation de la patte de liaison 52, solidaire de la joue-support 36, 37, à la coulisse 31, 32.The lower end 54 of the connecting lug 52 has a stiffening return 57 whose width 58 corresponds to the width 59 of the opening 55 to ensure frank contact between the connecting lug 52 and the slide 31, 32. The latter has at least one orifice 60 allowing the passage of at least one fixing element 61 also passing through at least one orifice 62 produced in the connecting lug 52. Thus, the fixing of the support cheek 36, 37 is ensured, on the one hand, by the fastening elements engaged in the orifices 50, 51 of the outer wing 48 of the peripheral base 41, ensuring the fixing of the support cheeks 36, 37 on the cross-member 1 of the frame 2, and, d on the other hand, by the fastening elements 61 ensuring the attachment of the connecting lug 52, integral with the cheek-support 36, 37, to the slide 31, 32.

En conclusion, un caisson monobloc pour volet roulant intégrant les caractéristiques de la présente invention s'avère de tenue mécanique meilleure ce qui lui confère un gain considérable du point de vue de la fiabilité.In conclusion, a monobloc box for a roller shutter incorporating the characteristics of the present invention proves to be of better mechanical strength which gives it a considerable gain from the point of view of reliability.
