Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de fixation d'un moteur tubulaire pour l'entraînement d'un store, volet roulant ou analogues, dans une embrasure, constitué, d'une part, d'un moyen destiné à être fixé à l'embrasure et, d'autre part, d'un moyen solidaire du moteur venant s'accrocher au moyen fixé à l'embrasure dans une position angulaire choisie parmi plusieurs positions possibles.The present invention relates to a device for fixing a tubular motor for driving a blind, rolling shutter or the like, in a doorway, consisting, on the one hand, of a means intended to be fixed to the doorway and, on the other hand, a means secured to the motor coming to hook onto the means fixed to the doorway in an angular position chosen from among several possible positions.

Les moteurs tubulaires pour l'entraînement de stores, volets roulants ou analogues, sont montés à l'intérieur d'un tube d'enroulement et ils doivent être fixés, par l'une de leurs extrémités à l'embrasure de la fenêtre ou de la porte. Ces moteurs comportent généralement un dispositif d'arrêt en fin de course qui doit pouvoir être réglé au moyen d'un tourne-vis une fois le store installé. A cet effet, les vis de réglage doivent être accessibles. Or, notamment lors de réfection d'immeubles, le moteur doit occuper une position angulaire différente de cas en cas pour assurer cette accès aux vis de réglage.Tubular motors for driving blinds, roller shutters or the like are mounted inside a winding tube and must be fixed by one of their ends to the window or window frame. the door. These motors generally include an end-of-travel stop device which must be able to be adjusted by means of a screwdriver once the blind is installed. For this purpose, the adjusting screws must be accessible. However, especially when repairing buildings, the engine must occupy a different angular position from case to case to ensure this access to the adjustment screws.

Il a déjà été proposé un dispositif permettant de fixer le moteur dans différentes positions angulaires. Ce dispositif est constitué d'une plaque fixée dans l'embrasure et pourvue, d'une part, de deux nervures verticales parallèles et, d'autre part, de deux dents verticales, entre et en-dessous des nervures. Le moteur est pourvu d'une sorte de flasque portant une couronne munie de crans destinés à venir s'engager dans les dents de la plaque fixée à l'embrasure, entre les nervures verticales de celle-ci. Cette couronne est retenue verticalement par un loquet articulé sur la plaque. Le moteur peut prendre autant de positions angulaires différentes qu'il y a de crans dans la couronne solidaire du moteur.A device has already been proposed for fixing the motor in different angular positions. This device consists of a plate fixed in the doorway and provided, on the one hand, with two parallel vertical ribs and, on the other hand, with two vertical teeth, between and below the ribs. The motor is provided with a kind of flange carrying a crown provided with notches intended to come to engage in the teeth of the plate fixed to the doorway, between the vertical ribs thereof. This crown is held vertically by a latch articulated on the plate. The motor can take as many different angular positions as there are notches in the crown secured to the motor.

La présente invention a pour but de réaliser un dispositif permettant également une orientation angulaire du moteur, mais plus compacte, permettant de fixer le moteur plus près du mur afin de gagner de la place et ne présentant pratiquement pas de jeu angulaire. L'invention a également pour but de réaliser un dispositif plus facile à utiliser et permettant la transmission d'un couple moteur élevé.The object of the present invention is to provide a device which also allows angular orientation of the motor, but is more compact, making it possible to fix the motor closer to the wall in order to save space and having practically no angular play. The invention also aims to provide a device which is easier to use and which allows the transmission of a high engine torque.

Ces buts sont atteints par le dispositif selon l'invention qui est caractérisé en ce que l'un des moyens est constitué, d'une part, d'une plaque munie de saillies perpendiculaires à la plaque, réparties régulièrement sur un cercle et dans lesquelles est formée une rainure annulaire extérieure commune interrompue entre les saillies, lesdites saillies définissant un profil femelle, et, d'autre part, d'un organe de verrouillage constitué d'une bague montée librement dans ladite rainure et en ce que l'autre moyen est constitué d'une pièce profilée constituant un profil mâle complémentaire dudit profil femelle et venant s'engager entre les saillies de ladite plaque, les saillies de ladite pièce profilée mâle étant également pourvues d'une rainure extérieure interrompue analogue à celle des saillies de ladite plaque et coïncidant avec cette dernière lorsque ladite pièce profilée mâle est emboîtée dans ladite plaque, ladite bague pouvant occuper au moins deux positions particulières, l'une, de verrouillage, dans laquelle elle est engagée dans les rainures de la plaque et de la pièce profilée mâle, et l'autre, dans laquelle elle n'est pas engagée dans la rainure de la pièce profilée mâle.These objects are achieved by the device according to the invention which is characterized in that one of the means consists, on the one hand, of a plate provided with projections perpendicular to the plate, distributed regularly on a circle and in which is formed a common external annular groove interrupted between the projections, said projections defining a female profile, and, on the other hand, a locking member consisting of a ring mounted freely in said groove and in that the other means consists of a profiled part constituting a male profile complementary to said female profile and engaging between the projections of said plate, the projections of said male profiled part also being provided with an interrupted external groove similar to that of the projections of said plate and coinciding with the latter when said male profiled part is fitted into said plate, said ring being able to occupy at least two in. particular positions, one, locking, in which it is engaged in the grooves of the plate and the male profiled part, and the other, in which it is not engaged in the groove of the male profiled part.

La pièce profilée mâle est de préférence solidaire du moteur, mais elle pourrait également constituer la pièce fixée à l'embrasure. Les pièces profilées mâle et femelle peuvent être réalisées en matière synthétique.The male profiled part is preferably secured to the motor, but it could also constitute the part fixed to the doorway. The male and female profiled parts can be made of synthetic material.

Selon un mode d'exécution, le verrouillage et le déverrouillage s'effectuent par une légère rotation d'une bague rigide présentant des segments de largeurs différentes.According to one embodiment, the locking and unlocking is carried out by a slight rotation of a rigid ring having segments of different widths.

Selon un autre mode de réalisation, la bague de verrouillage est une bague fendue élastique et la fixation du moteur se fait simplement par emboîtement axial.According to another embodiment, the locking ring is an elastic split ring and the motor is fixed simply by axial interlocking.

Le moteur est fixé sur tout son pourtour par son profil. La plaque, de préférence métallique, fixée au mur, peut être de faible épaisseur, de telle sorte que le moteur est très près du mur. Le contour extérieur de la plaque peut être confondu avec l'enveloppe des saillies, de manière à former une pièce très compacte. Le moteur étant tenu sur tout son pourtour par l'emboîtement de deux profils conjugués, le couple transmis au tube d'enroulement peut être élevé.The motor is fixed around its entire periphery by its profile. The plate, preferably metallic, fixed to the wall, can be thin, so that the motor is very close to the wall. The outer contour of the plate can be confused with the envelope of the projections, so as to form a very compact part. The motor being held over its entire periphery by the interlocking of two conjugate profiles, the torque transmitted to the winding tube can be high.

Le dessin annexé représente, à titre d'exemple, deux modes d'exécution de l'invention.The accompanying drawing shows, by way of example, two embodiments of the invention.

La figure 1 est une vue de face d'une plaque fixée à l'embrasure selon un premier mode d'exécution.Figure 1 is a front view of a plate fixed to the doorway according to a first embodiment.

La figure 2 est une vue de face de l'extrémité du moteur selon un premier mode d'exécution.Figure 2 is a front view of the end of the engine according to a first embodiment.

La figure 3 est une vue éclatée de la fixation, selon le premier mode d'exécution, la plaque à l'extrémité du moteur étant représentée en coupe selon III-III des figures 1 et 2.FIG. 3 is an exploded view of the attachment, according to the first embodiment, the plate at the end of the motor being shown in section along III-III of FIGS. 1 and 2.

La figure 4 représente la même fixation réalisée, en coupe selon IV-IV de la figure 5..FIG. 4 represents the same attachment made, in section along IV-IV of FIG. 5.

La figure 5 est une vue en coupe selon V-V de la figure 4.FIG. 5 is a sectional view along V-V of FIG. 4.

La figure 6 représente un second mode d'exécution vu en coupe selon VI-VI de la figure 7.FIG. 6 represents a second embodiment seen in section along VI-VI of FIG. 7.

La figure 7 est une vue en coupe selon VII-VII de la figure 6.Figure 7 is a sectional view along VII-VII of Figure 6.

La figure 1 représente une plaque circulaire 1 présentant six saillies profilées 2 à 7 réparties régulièrement dans la zone périphérique de la plaque 1 et s'étendant parallèlement à l'axe du disque constitué par la plaque. La plaque est munie d'une rainure périphérique annulaire 8 s'étendant dans les sailles 2 à 7. Cette rainure 8 est donc interrompue entre les saillies. La plaque 1 présente en outre deux trous 9 et 10 pour sa fixation au moyen de vis, telles que la vis 11 (figure 3), dans une embrasure 12.FIG. 1 represents a circular plate 1 having six profiled projections 2 to 7 distributed regularly in the peripheral zone of the plate 1 and extending parallel to the axis of the disc formed by the plate. The plate is provided with an annular peripheral groove 8 extending in the projections 2 to 7. This groove 8 is therefore interrupted between the projections. The plate 1 also has two holes 9 and 10 for its fixing by means of screws, such as the screw 11 (FIG. 3), in a recess 12.

Le moteur 13 (figure 3) est muni d'une tête profilée 14 telle que représentée aux figures 2 et 3. Cette tête 14 est une pièce massive fixée au moteur 13 à travers une bague tournante 15 destinée à supporter un tube d'enroulement, de manière connue en soi. Elle présente un contour ondulé 16 dont la forme est conjuguée à la forme femelle définie par les saillies 2 à 7 de la plaque 1. La tête 14 est également pourvue d'une rainure périphérique annulaire 17 interrompue dans les creux de l'ondulation 16. En 18 est représenté le câble d'alimentation du moteur.The motor 13 (FIG. 3) is provided with a profiled head 14 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. This head 14 is a solid part fixed to the motor 13 through a rotating ring 15 intended to support a winding tube, in a manner known per se. It has a wavy outline 16 whose shape is combined with the female shape defined by the projections 2 to 7 of the plate 1. The head 14 is also provided with an annular peripheral groove 17 interrupted in the hollows of the corrugation 16. At 18 is shown the motor supply cable.

Le dispositif de fixation est complété par une bague métallique 19 représentée à la figure 5. Cette bague est incomplète de manière à pouvoir être ouverte pour sa mise en place dans la rainure 8. Elle présente des segments 20 et 21 de largeurs différentes et s'étendant alternativement sur un arc de 30°. La bague 19 est en outre munie de trois oreilles 22, 23 et 24 percées d'un trou.The fixing device is completed by a metal ring 19 shown in FIG. 5. This ring is incomplete so that it can be opened for its positioning in the groove 8. It has segments 20 and 21 of different widths and s' alternately extending over an arc of 30 °. The ring 19 is further provided with three ears 22, 23 and 24 pierced with a hole.

Entre la rainure 17 et l'extrémité de la tête 14, l'enveloppe du profil ondulé 16 présente un diamètre inférieur au diamètre de l'enveloppe du profil en arrière de la rainure et légèrement inférieur au diamètre intérieur de la bague 19, entre deux segments étroits 21 , alors que le diamètre intérieur de la bague 19 entre deux parties larges est compris entre le diamètre de l'enveloppe de petit diamètre et le diamètre intérieur de la gorge 17.Between the groove 17 and the end of the head 14, the envelope of the corrugated profile 16 has a diameter less than the diameter of the envelope of the profile behind the groove and slightly less than the inside diameter of the ring 19, between two narrow segments 21, while the internal diameter of the ring 19 between two large parts is between the diameter of the small-diameter casing and the internal diameter of the groove 17.

La plaque 1, munie de la bague 19, est fixée à l'embrasure 12. La bague 19 est tout d'abord positionnée angulairement, de telle sorte que ses parties larges 20 sont escamotées dans les saillies 2 à 7. Dans cette position, la tête 14 du moteur peut être introduite axialement entre les saillies de la plaque 1 sans être gênée par les parties étroites 21 de la bague. Après emboîtement, la bague 19 est entraînée en rotation, par l'une de ses oreilles 22 à 24, d'un angle de 30°, ce qui a pour effet d'amener les parties larges 20 de la bague dans les segments existants de la rainure 17 de la tête 14. Cette tête 14 est alors verrouillée dans la plaque 1. L'un des trous des oreilles 22 à 23 est utilisé pour fixer la bague 19, par exemple au moyen d'une attache plombée.The plate 1, provided with the ring 19, is fixed to the embrasure 12. The ring 19 is first of all angularly positioned, so that its wide parts 20 are retracted into the projections 2 to 7. In this position, the head 14 of the motor can be introduced axially between the projections of the plate 1 without being hindered by the narrow parts 21 of the ring. After fitting, the ring 19 is rotated by one of its ears 22 to 24, by an angle of 30 °, which has the effect of bringing the wide parts 20 of the ring in the existing segments of the groove 17 of the head 14. This head 14 is then locked in the plate 1. One of the holes of the ears 22 to 23 is used to fix the ring 19, for example by means of a leaded fastener.

Le dispositif décrit ci-dessus est susceptible de nombreuses variantes sans sortir du cadre de l'invention comme définie dans les revendications. En particulier, le nombre et la forme des saillies de la plaque 1 pourraient être différents. La plaque fixée dans l'embrasure pourrait être munie d'une seule saillie massive analogue à la tête 15, le moteur étant muni d'une plaque analogue à la plaque 1. Dans ce cas, la bague 19 serait sur le moteur.The device described above is susceptible of numerous variants without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the claims. In particular, the number and the shape of the projections of the plate 1 could be different. The plate fixed in the doorway could be provided with a single massive projection similar to the head 15, the motor being provided with a plate similar to the plate 1. In this case, the ring 19 would be on the motor.

Le verrouillage de l'outil sur la pièce terminale peut être assuré par d'autres moyens que ceux représentés aux figures 4 et 5. Un second mode d'exécution des moyens de verrouillage sera décrit, à titre d'exemple, en relation avec les figures 6 et 7.The locking of the tool on the end piece can be ensured by means other than those shown in FIGS. 4 and 5. A second embodiment of the locking means will be described, by way of example, in relation to the Figures 6 and 7.

Ce second mode d'exécution diffère essentiellement du premier mode d'exécution en ce que la bague 19 est remplacée par un simple jonc circulaire et élastiquement déformable 25. Pour le reste, la plaque et la tête 14 ne diffèrent que par des détails, de sorte que, par mesure de simplification, on a utilisé dans les figures 6 et 7 les mêmes références que dans les figures 1 à 5.This second embodiment differs essentially from the first embodiment in that the ring 19 is replaced by a simple circular and elastically deformable rod 25. For the rest, the plate and the head 14 differ only in details, from so that, for the sake of simplification, the same references have been used in FIGS. 6 and 7 as in FIGS. 1 to 5.

La plaque 1 diffère de la plaque 1 du premier mode d'exécution en ce que les saillies 2 à 7 de section de forme lenticulaire sont remplacées par des saillies 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 en forme de parois concaves présentant une concavité tournée vers l'extérieur. Quant à la tête 14 du moteur 13, sa section se termine, sur les ondulations, par un arrondi 32. Le jonc 25 présente un pli ouvert 33 constituant un aménagement destiné à sa saisie pour le tirer radialement. Le jonc 25 présente en outre une ondulation 34 dirigée vers l'intérieur et dont la courbure et la grandeur correspond à la concavité des saillies 26 à 31.The plate 1 differs from the plate 1 of the first embodiment in that the projections 2 to 7 of lenticular section are replaced by projections 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 in the form of concave walls having a concavity facing outwards. As for the head 14 of the motor 13, its section ends, on the undulations, by a rounding 32. The rod 25 has an open fold 33 constituting an arrangement intended for gripping it in order to pull it radially. The rod 25 also has a corrugation 34 directed inwards and the curvature and size of which corresponds to the concavity of the projections 26 to 31.

Avant la mise en place de la tête 14 sur la plaque 1, le jonc élastique 25 est dans la position de verrouillage dans la gorge 8 de la plaque 1. La mise en place de la tête 14 se fait en force, par simple pression, la tête venant écarter le jonc 25 et la pénétration de la tête 14 étant facilitée par ses arrondis 32. Une fois la tête engagée, le jonc 25 se referme dans les rainures 17 de la tête 14. L'ondulation 34 du jonc est engagée dans la concavité de l'une des saillies 26 à 31, immobilisant le jonc 25 en rotation et laissant libre le passage du câble 18.Before the establishment of the head 14 on the plate 1, the elastic ring 25 is in the locking position in the groove 8 of the plate 1. The establishment of the head 14 is done by force, by simple pressure, the head coming aside the rod 25 and the penetration of the head 14 being facilitated by its rounded 32. Once the head engaged, the rod 25 closes in the grooves 17 of the head 14. The undulation 34 of the rod is engaged in the concavity of one of the projections 26 to 31, immobilizing the rod 25 in rotation and leaving the passage of the cable 18 free.

Pour séparer la tête 14 de la plaque 1, il suffit de dégager le jonc 25 des rainures 17 de la tête 14, comme représenté en traits mixtes à la figure 7, en tirant celui-ci radialement par son aménagement 33, par exemple à l'aide d'un tournevis. Le jonc 25 est ensuite repoussé dans la rainure 8.To separate the head 14 from the plate 1, it suffices to release the rod 25 from the grooves 17 of the head 14, as shown in phantom in Figure 7, by pulling it radially by its arrangement 33, for example at using a screwdriver. The rod 25 is then pushed back into the groove 8.
