Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a closure joint between a first element constituted by a movable panel of a folding door and a second element articulated angularly with respect to each other about an axis, by means of articulation.
  • the articulation of the panels with one another is effected by a longitudinal hinge, part of which is disposed on a field of a panel, while the other part is arranged on a respective field of another adjacent panel.
  • These hinges of a special type are complex because indeed, during their rotation, corresponding to an angular movement of the panels relative to each other, at no time should there be any angular spacing of the fields of two successive panels, which would present obvious dangers of pinching on closing, for the user.
  • the aforementioned constituent parts of the hinge are produced in a straight profile comprising a groove with circular section in which cooperates in angular rotation a profile of corresponding section capable of being housed therein and being retained therein.
  • This type of hinges therefore ensures both the articulation of the panels together, while providing protection against pinching between two consecutive articulated panels.
  • the profiles constituting the hinge can be attached to the field of the panels, or else be produced directly from the latter, but in both cases this will involve expensive machining operations, all the more so as these parts being visible, they will have to be more often undergo treatments such as anodization, varnishing, painting, to meet aesthetic imperatives.
  • the invention overcomes these various drawbacks and for this purpose relates to a closure joint between a first element constituted by a movable panel a folding door and a second element, articulated angularly with respect to each other about an axis, by articulation means.
  • the seal is constituted by a flexible profile disposed on a field of at least one of the elements, without mechanical connection with the other element, to occupy a substantially corresponding space formed between said elements, the articulation means being located outside said space.
  • the articulation means usually arranged in the joint plane of the panels are here arranged completely external thereto, which allows the use of flexible joint of a particular type according to the invention, obtained by extrusion and 'a low cost price.
  • the present invention also relates to the characteristics below, considered in isolation or in all their technically possible combinations.
  • the second element is a second movable panel adjacent to the first and constituting at least part of the folding door.
  • the second element is a fixed wall adjacent to the folding door.
  • the first and second elements consist of two end panels, of two complementary parts constituting the folding door.
  • the seal is constituted by a flexible tubular profile comprising a semi-rigid zone and an elastically deformable zone.
  • the semi-rigid and elastically deformable zones correspond respectively to reinforced or thinned parts of the tubular section of the profile giving it a shape oblong asymmetrical.
  • the seal comprises on its face directed towards the field of a door element, at least one linear groove capable of conforming to the profile of said field.
  • the face of the seal facing the field of a door element comprises a linear groove in the form of a dovetail in which an adhesive material is interposed. This has the effect of perfecting and making effective the fixing of the joint.
  • the invention also relates to a folding door implementing the aforementioned seal, characterized in that the semi-rigid zone of a seal of a first door panel, is adjacent to the semi-rigid zone of another seal a second door panel adjacent to the first, said zones being capable of simultaneously gravitating with respect to one another around the axis of articulation, at a minimum distance from each other, during the folding of the door, while the elastically deformable zone of the seal of the first panel is adjacent to the elastically deformable zone of the other seal of the second panel, said zones being capable of deviating angularly from one another relative to to the hinge axis, when the door is folded, so that said joints produce a fictitious flexible hinge without contact, the sides of the opening angle of which correspond to the elastically deformable zones.
  • the other side of the door is to be considered against closing, that is to say during unfolding. Areas elastically deformable then approach after being angularly separated at the opening, but this approximation can not represent a danger of pinching because the parts involved are precisely elastically deformable.
  • the semi-rigid zone of a joint of an end panel of a part of the folding door is adjacent to the elastically deformable zone of another joint of another panel end of a complementary part, constituting the folding door.
  • the joints thus mounted head to tail in this particular case of application, on opening panels, have the advantage of offering no point of resistance to closing, thus avoiding pinching, since each semi-rigid zone of a joint is facing an elastically deformable area of the other joint.
  • Such an arrangement of the seals also offers the advantage of allowing the use of the same seals used in the above-mentioned cases. In other words, the same type of seal according to the invention covers all cases.
  • the folding door shown comprises a part 1 and a part 2 designed as a whole and mechanically independent from one another although controlled simultaneously in opening or closing.
  • Part 1 of the folding part itself consists of a first mobile panel 3 adjacent and angularly articulated to a second mobile panel 4.
  • the articulation of part 1 of the door is carried out with respect to a lower fixed support 5 and an upper support 6 constituting, in this case, an elevator car.
  • the lower articulation disposed on the support 5 consists of a ball joint 7 housed in a corresponding seat 8 of a lower flange 9 of the panel 3.
  • the ball joint 7 is located on a hinge pin XX 'on which is also disposed the upper articulation constituted by a second ball joint 10 housed in a corresponding seat 11 of an upper sole 12 of said panel 3.
  • the ball 10 is integral with a drive arm 13 capable of oscillating angularly and driving the panel 3, by means of a drive cleat 14 housed in a hole 14 a in the upper sole 12.
  • the panel 3 drives in its angular movement, in the manner of an accordion, the panel 4 by means of upper articulation means 15 and lower 16, designated as a whole.
  • These means 15 and 16 are constituted identically by a metal plate 17, 17A, secured by a screw 18, 18A, of the sole 9, 12 of the panel 3; the plate 17, 17A being articulated with a plate 19, 19A of a sole 20, 21 of the panel 4 by means of a pin 22, 23 passing through said plates 17, 19 and 17A, 19A. Consequently, the articulation of the panels 3 and 4, one with respect to the other, takes place around the axis YY 'which can be angularly displaced with respect to the fixed axis XX'. Ways articulation 15 and 16 are therefore located outside the joint plane of the panels 3 and 4.
  • a closure joint is interposed between all the elements present, without any mechanical connection between them, other than the upper and lower connection means 15 and 16.
  • Said connecting means 15 and 16 define between two panels 3 and 4 a space "e" capable of being occupied by two identical seals 24, 25 arranged symmetrically opposite one another on the adjacent fields 26, 27 of the panels 3 and 4.
  • the seals 24 and 25 are constituted by a flexible tubular profile, obtained by extrusion, and each comprising a semi-rigid zone 28 and an elastically deformable zone 29.
  • the semi-rigid zones 28 correspond to reinforced parts of the tubular section of the profile, while the elastically deformable zones 29 correspond to thinned parts of said tubular section.
  • Such a configuration of the latter gives it an asymmetrical oblong shape.
  • the seals 24, 25 also have, on their face directed respectively to the fields 26, 27 of the panels 3 and 4, two linear grooves 30 capable of matching the profile of the fields 26, 27.
  • the panels 3 and 4 advantageously consist of three sheets of glass forming three layers 31, 32, 33 including that of the middle 32 and of smaller dimension to constitute on the fields 26, 27 a slot 34 in which is housed a longitudinal tooth 35 separating the grooves 30.
  • tooth 35 comprises a linear groove 36 in the form of a dovetail in which an adhesive material is arranged, so as to improve the anchoring of the latter between the fields 26, 27 and the seals 24, 25.
  • the semi-rigid area 28 of a seal 24 of a first door panel 3 is adjacent to the semi-rigid area 28 of another seal 25 of a second door panel 4 adjacent to the first; said zones 28 being capable of gravitating simultaneously with respect to one another around the axis of articulation YY 'at a minimum distance from each other equal to a clearance "J", during the folding of the door.
  • the elastically deformable zone 29 of the seal 24 of the first panel 3 is adjacent, in closing, to the elastically deformable zone 29 of the other seal 25 of the second panel 4.
  • Said zones 29 being capable of deviating angularly from each other with respect to the axis of articulation YY ', in opening.
  • the seals 24, 25 produce a fictitious flexible hinge without contact, the sides of the opening angle of which correspond to the elastically deformable zones 29.
  • a seal 36 of an end panel constituted by the second panel 4 of the door, is disposed on a field 37 opposite the field 27 of the same panel 4, opposite in closing, of another seal. 38 disposed on a field 4 of another end panel 39, of another complementary part constituting the folding part.
  • the seals 36, 38 disposed between the panels 4 and 39 deviating from one another in opening and approaching in closing, although identical to the previous ones, are mounted head to tail so as to obtain between them a zone "L" which is constantly flexible at least via their elastically deformable zone 29. In fact, in this way, two rigid zones 28 are never opposite.
  • a joint 40 identical to the previous ones is disposed between a fixed wall 41 of the elevator car and a field 42 opposite the field 26 of the panel 3.
  • the joint 40 here revolves around the axis XX ′ with respect to a fixed plane, in this case the aforementioned wall 41.
  • the gravitation is done around the axis by the semi-rigid zone 28, the angular spacing relative to the wall 41 being effected by the elastically deformable zone 29, thus also avoiding any accidental pinching.
