Definitions
- the subject of the present invention is a drive device for a Venetian blind comprising a box open downwards in which is mounted a motor driving, by means of a speed reducer, a drive shaft on which are mounted two pulleys located near the ends of the box and at least one intermediate pulley, pulleys intended for winding the laces of the awning and for opening its blades, each of these pulleys being rotatably mounted in a cradle.
- the motor equipped with its reducer, and rigidly fixed to the bottom of the box, at an intermediate point between the ends of the box and has two drive shafts on which are mounted the pulleys whose cradles are rigidly fixed to the walls of the box by screws.
- the motor equipped with its reducer, and rigidly fixed to the bottom of the box, at an intermediate point between the ends of the box and has two drive shafts on which are mounted the pulleys whose cradles are rigidly fixed to the walls of the box by screws.
- Alignment faults result in vibrations which are transmitted by all the elements to the box, giving rise to significant noise.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a drive device for a Venetian blind obviating the above-mentioned drawbacks, that is to say silent, easy to make and to install.
- the drive device is characterized in that the motor is a tubular motor mounted inside said drive shaft and whose head is rigidly connected to the box, that said drive shaft is supported at its ends and at least the intermediate cradle is mounted floating in the box.
- the intermediate cradle respectively the intermediate cradles, being mounted floating in the box, the axis of their pulley is automatically aligned with the axis of the drive shaft.
- the use of a tubular motor makes it possible to have a single drive shaft of large cross section. These features help suppress vibrations and make the drive unit quiet.
- the device shown in Figures 1 and 2 comprises a metal box 1 formed of a rectangular profile open downwards and two end flanges 2 and 3.
- the drive shaft 4 is tubular and of hexagonal section. Inside the shaft 4 is mounted a tubular motor 5 associated with a reduction gear, motor whose head 6 is rigidly fixed to the flange 3, while the end 7 of the drive shaft 4 is journalled in the flange 2 which serves as a bearing.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif d'entraînement pour store vénitien comprenant un caisson ouvert vers le bas dans lequel est monté un moteur entraînant, par l'intermédiaire d'un réducteur de vitesse, un arbre d'entraînement sur lequel sont montées deux poulies situées près des extrémités du caisson et au moins une poulie intermédiaire, poulies destinées à l'enroulement des lacettes du store et à l'ouverture de ses lames, chacune de ces poulies étant montée rotativement dans un berceau.The subject of the present invention is a drive device for a Venetian blind comprising a box open downwards in which is mounted a motor driving, by means of a speed reducer, a drive shaft on which are mounted two pulleys located near the ends of the box and at least one intermediate pulley, pulleys intended for winding the laces of the awning and for opening its blades, each of these pulleys being rotatably mounted in a cradle.
Dans les dispositifs d'entraînement connus et utilisés à ce jour, le moteur, équipé de son réducteur, et fixé rigidement au fond du caisson, en un point intermédiaire entre les extrémités du caisson et présente deux arbres d'entraînement sur lesquels sont montées les poulies dont les berceaux sont fixés rigidement aux parois du caisson au moyen de vis. Dans une telle exécution, où plusieurs éléments indépendants sont fixés individuellement et rigidement, il est difficile d'assurer un alignement correct des arbres d'entraînement et des axes des poulies. Les défauts d'alignement se traduisent par des vibrations qui sont transmises par tous les éléments au caisson, donnant lieu à un bruit important.In the drive devices known and used to date, the motor, equipped with its reducer, and rigidly fixed to the bottom of the box, at an intermediate point between the ends of the box and has two drive shafts on which are mounted the pulleys whose cradles are rigidly fixed to the walls of the box by screws. In such an embodiment, where several independent elements are fixed individually and rigidly, it is difficult to ensure correct alignment of the drive shafts and the axes of the pulleys. Alignment faults result in vibrations which are transmitted by all the elements to the box, giving rise to significant noise.
La présente invention a pour but de réaliser un dispositif d'entraînement pour store vénitien obviant aux inconvénients susmentionnés, c'est-à-dire silencieux, facile à réaliser et à installer.The object of the present invention is to provide a drive device for a Venetian blind obviating the above-mentioned drawbacks, that is to say silent, easy to make and to install.
Le dispositif d'entraînement selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que le moteur est un moteur tubulaire monté à l'intérieur dudit arbre d'entraînement et dont la tête est reliée rigidement au caisson, que ledit arbre d'entraînement est soutenu à ses extrémités et qu'au moins le berceau intermédiaire est monté flottant dans le caisson.The drive device according to the invention is characterized in that the motor is a tubular motor mounted inside said drive shaft and whose head is rigidly connected to the box, that said drive shaft is supported at its ends and at least the intermediate cradle is mounted floating in the box.
Le berceau intermédiaire, respectivement les berceaux intermédiaires, étant montés flottant dans le caisson, l'axe de leur poulie s'aligne automatiquement sur l'axe de l'arbre d'entraînement. L'utilisation d'un moteur tubulaire permet d'avoir un arbre d'entrai- nement unique de grande section. Ces caractéristiques concourent à supprimer les vibrations et à rendre le dispositif d'entraînement silencieux.The intermediate cradle, respectively the intermediate cradles, being mounted floating in the box, the axis of their pulley is automatically aligned with the axis of the drive shaft. The use of a tubular motor makes it possible to have a single drive shaft of large cross section. These features help suppress vibrations and make the drive unit quiet.

Le dispositif représenté aux figures 1 et 2 comprend un caisson métallique 1 formé d'un profil rectangulaire ouvert vers le bas et de deux flasques d'extrémité 2 et 3. L'arbre d'entraînement 4 est tubulaire et de section hexagonale. A l'intérieur de l'arbre 4 est monté un moteur tubulaire 5 associé à un réducteur, moteur dont la tête 6 est fixée rigidement au flasque 3, tandis que l'extrémité 7 de l'arbre d'entraînement 4 est tourillonnée dans le flasque 2 qui lui sert de palier.The device shown in Figures 1 and 2 comprises a
L'arbre d'entraînement 4 traverse deux poulies d'extrémité 8 et 9 et une poulie intermédiaire 10 qui sont bien entendu solidaires en rotation de l'arbre 4. Chacune de ces poulies présente une gorge médiane pour l'enroulement des lacettes du store vénitien et deux gorges latérales pour l'entraînement d'échelles destinées à l'orientation des lames du store. Les poulies 8, 9 et 10 sont montées rotativement respectivement dans un berceau 11, 12 et 13 représenté schématiquement. Ces berceaux sont montés flottant dans le caisson 1 dans le sens vertical. A cet effet, chaque berceau présente deux tenons latéraux 14 et 15 engagés avec un jeu vertical dans des découpes 16 et 17 du caisson 1.The drive shaft 4 passes through two
La position de l'arbre d'entraînement 4 est déterminée par les flasques d'extrémité 2 et 3. Les berceaux 11, 12 et 13 étant flottants, les poulies 8, 9 et 10 peuvent s'aligner automatiquement sur l'arbre d'entraînement. Cette forme d'exécution est intéressante en ce qu'elle permet de rapporter facilement l'arbre d'entraînement motorisé. Le store peut donc être pré-monté et même pré-installé.The position of the drive shaft 4 is determined by the
La seconde forme d'exécution, représentée aux figures 3 et 4, se distingue de la première forme d'exécution en ce que l'arbre d'entraînement 4 est soutenu par les berceaux d'extrémité 11 et 12 au lieu d'être soutenu par les flasques d'extrémité 18 et 19, ces flasques pouvant être par conséquent réalisés de façon plus légère et fixés sur le caisson par simple emboîtement. Les berceaux 11 et 12 sont par conséquent fixés rigidement aux parois latérales du caisson 1, de préférence par emboîtement sans jeu de tenons fendus 20 et 21 dont les deux bras viennent s'accrocher automatiquement de manière connue sur la face extérieure du caisson. Le berceau intermédiaire 13 est par contre monté flottant comme dans la première forme d'exécution. Il en serait de même d'autres berceaux intermédiaires.The second embodiment, shown in Figures 3 and 4, differs from the first embodiment in that the drive shaft 4 is supported by the
La tête 6 du moteur est fixée rigidement à un support intermédiaire 22 lui-même fixé rigidement au berceau 12. L'extrémité 7 de l'arbre d'entraînement est, de façon analogue, tourillonnée dans un support intermédiaire 23 fixé rigidement au berceau 11.The motor head 6 is rigidly fixed to an
Comme ceci est représenté de façon plus précise aux figures 5 et 6, le support intermédiaire 22 présente une forme adaptée à la tête 6 du moteur et enveloppant partiellement cette tête. La tête 6 du moteur est fixée à la pièce 22 par deux vis telle que la vis 24, le support 22 étant lui-même fixé au berceau 12 par trois oreilles telles que 25 et 26 munies d'un trou par lequel elles sont engagées sur des ergots 27 du berceau 12 sur lesquels elles sont maintenues par des clips.As this is shown more precisely in FIGS. 5 and 6, the
