Description
- The invention relates to a device for operating the door of vehicle door units, comprising a structure rotatable about a vertical axis of rotation and operated by a fluid actuator able to move the door relative to the door aperture, in which the door is locked to the door frame by being moved upwards when in its closed position.
- For this purpose, especially for doors which move roto-translationally outwards of the vehicle, it is known to provide a rotatable column which supports the door by horizontal arms and is made to rotate inwards and outwards to close and open the door respectively, by means of a fluid actuator with the aid of a screw transmission. Said column can both rotate and move axially; when the door is opened or closed the column rotates whereas when the door is in its closed position the screw transmission mechanism raises the column through a short distance; this causes the door to rise relative to the door frame so that suitable locking elements provided on the one hand on the door and on the other hand on the door frame mutually engage to mechanically lock the door to the frame; to open the door it is again lowered to mutually disengage the locking elements.
- If the compressed air fails or if by accident pressure is removed from the actuator, the weight of the door and column causes them to fall spontaneously so that the door is no longer in a locked state, which can be dangerous for passengers especially during movement of the vehicle. To obviate this drawback, devices are known which safeguard the mechanically locked state of the door. These devices consist of very complicated mechanisms which position a mechanical stop element under an abutment rigid with the column to prevent this latter from falling after it has been raised, and also remove it therefrom. Besides being complicated and hence relatively costly such devices require very accurate installation within the door operating unit to prevent the door being able to descend slightly from its locked position because of too large clearances, and hence allow the locking elements to mutually disengage before the column is halted by the stop element.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a door operating device able to close the door, then raise it slightly into its locked position and to safely maintain it in this position even if pressurized fluid is absent from the actuator, which is constructionally simple, is reliable and does not require particular attention and accuracy in its installation with respect to the locking elements.
- This and further objects are attained by the device of the invention as characterised in the claims.
- The invention is described in detail hereinafter with reference to the accompanying figures which illustrate two embodiments thereof.
- Figure 1 is an overall view of a first embodiment of the device applied to a door.
Figures 2A and 2B together represent an axial section through a detail of the device of Figure 1 to an enlarged scale.
Figure 3 is a schematic view of a second embodiment of the detail of Figure 2A. - Figure 1 shows part of a vehicle, typically for transporting persons, which comprises a door 1 for closing an aperture in the
door frame 9. The door 1 is supported by asupport structure 10 rotatable about a vertical axis of rotation A and operated by a fluid actuator 2 in such a manner as to move the door 1 relative to the door aperture. The door 1 is locked to theframe 9 by being moved upwards when in its closed position. This is achieved bysuitable locking elements 8 of known type (shown summarily in the figures), for example by plates fixed both to the door 1 and to theframe 9 and engaging mutually in the manner of latches to prevent the door moving away from the door aperture in a horizontal direction. - According to the invention, the
support structure 10 comprises afirst support element 11 arranged to rotate about said axis of rotation A coaxial thereto, and fixed to thedoor frame 9 such as not to be able to undergo vertical movement. Thestructure 10 also comprises asecond support element 12 which is supported by saidfirst element 11 in such a manner as to be able to rotate about the axis A and to move vertically relative to theelement 11; saidsecond element 12 is fixed to the door 1 to move vertically therewith. In addition there are provided afirst piston 31 slidable under sealed conditions within a relativefirst chamber 33 filled with operating liquid and rigid with thefirst element 11, and asecond piston 32 rigid with saidsecond element 12 and slidable under sealed conditions within a relativesecond chamber 34 filled with operating liquid and rigid with thefirst element 11. Thefirst chamber 33 communicates with thesecond chamber 34 via apassage duct 35 such that compression of thefirst chamber 33 produces expansion of thesecond chamber 34, expansion of thesecond chamber 34 resulting in the raising of thesecond piston 32 relative to thechamber 34. Transmission means 20 operated by the actuator 2 are provided to rotate thefirst element 11 when this is free to rotate, and to make thefirst piston 31 undergo a compression stroke within thefirst chamber 33 when thefirst element 11 is prevented from rotating and the actuator 2 is operated in the sense of closing the door. - Valve means 40 are also provided to automatically close the
passage 35 for the operating liquid from thesecond chamber 34 to thefirst chamber 33, saidpassage 35 being able to be opened by external control. - Specifically, the
first element 11 is in the form of a column and comprises a cylindrical axial inner cavity closed upperly by awall 36, below which thefirst piston 31 slides under sealed conditions; the cavity region between thepiston 31 and theupper wall 36 defines saidfirst chamber 33. - According to a first embodiment, the
support structure 10 comprises a vertical upright 13 rigidly fixed totransverse arms 14 fixed to thecolumn 11. The upright 13 comprises an inner cylindrical axial cavity with a closedlower base 15, and in which thesecond piston 32 slides under sealed conditions; the cavity region between thelower base 15 and thepiston 32 defines saidsecond chamber 34. Thesecond support element 12 is rigidly joined to thepiston 32. - In the embodiment shown in Figure 1, the
piston 32 is of "plunger" type, its seal against thechamber 34 being formed bygaskets 341 rigid with the wall of thechamber 31 and positioned within the upper region thereof, saidgaskets 341 sealing against the smooth cylindrical surface of thepiston 32. - The
passage duct 35 is provided within one of thearms 14, this being internally hollow, and communicates with thechambers lateral holes arm 14 is fixed to thecolumn 11 and to the upright 13 respectively. Theelement 12 is integral with thepiston 32 and is upperly pivoted by apin 121 to abracket 122 fixed to the door 1. Within the lower part of the upright 13 there is amember 16 slidable vertically relative to the upright 13 and having its lower end constrained to the door 1 in a vertical direction by the fact of said lower end being pivoted by apin 161 to a bracket fixed to the door 1. Thrust means, for example aprecompressed spring 163, act on themember 16 to constantly urge themember 16 downwards relative to the upright 13. - The transmission means 20 are of the screw transmission type and are positioned in the lower region of the internal cavity of the
column 11. Said means 20 comprise atransmission element 21 coaxial to thecolumn 11 and having a cylindrical outer surface which exactly mates with the cylindricalinner surface 111 of thecolumn 11; theelement 21 is torsionally constrained to thecolumn 11 by the engagement between grooves andaxial projections 211 provided between the lower region of the outer surface of theelement 21 and the inner surface of thelower region 112 of thecolumn 11. Theelement 21 is free to slide axially relative to thecolumn 11. Thefirst piston 31 is fixed rigidly to the upper part of theelement 21. Theelement 21 is engaged by the actuator 2 in such a manner as to rotate about the axis A of thecolumn 11 when this is free to rotate, and instead to slide axially upwards relative to thecolumn 11 when this is prevented from rotating and the actuator 2 is operated in the sense of closing the door. - In the embodiment shown in Figure 2, to achieve the described movement of the
element 21, themeans 20 comprise acylindrical shaft 22 slidable within an axialcylindrical cavity 23 in the interior of theelement 21 and rigidly fixed to the mobile member (rod 3) of the actuator 2 which is of linear type (ie in which the stroke of the mobile member is rectilinear), and further being constrained to thedoor frame 9 in such a manner as to be able to move only in an axial direction thereto. This constraint is achieved by the engagement between axial projections andgrooves 221 provided between the lower region of the surface of theshaft 22 and the inner surface of abore 251 provided in afixing body 25 which rigidly fixes the actuator 2 to theframe 9. Thebody 251 extends upwards about thebore 251 to define asleeve 252 housed between the inner surface of the lower region of theelement 21 and the outer surface of theshaft 22. Thebore 251 within thesleeve 252 is traversed by the lower part of theshaft 22. On thebody 25, at the base of thesleeve 252 there is an upwardly facingsurface 253 on which the lower end of thecolumn 11 rests via an axial thrust bearing 26. Consequently thebody 25 supports not only the actuator 2 but also thecolumn 11 and all the members contained therein. The mutually facing cylindrical surfaces of theshaft 22 andaxial cavity 23 are provided with identical mutually facinghelical grooves 24 which together define one or more helicalchannels containing balls 241 which constrain theshaft 22 and the surface of theaxial cavity 23 and hence thetransmission element 21 to each other. The helix formed by these grooves has a relatively steep inclination such that during the closure of the door the movement (which is only axial) of theshaft 22 preferably causes theelement 21 to rotate and, only when thestructure 10 is no longer able to rotate, causes theelement 21 to move upwards relative to theshaft 22 andcolumn 11. In the figures thereference numeral 242 indicates a retainer positioned between the upper region of the cylindrical surface of theshaft 22 and the surface of theaxial cavity 23 to hold the balls together. Thegrooves 24 provided in theshaft 22 extend along the entire length thereof to enable the screw engagement to allow a relatively long axial movement of theshaft 22 relative to theelement 21. Thecolumn 11 is axially constrained (ie cannot be moved axially) to theframe 9 by being engaged at its upper end, by way of abearing 113, with abracket 114 fixed to theframe 9. - The valve means 40 shown in the figures comprise an electrically operated
unidirectional valve 41 of known type. Briefly, saidvalve 41 comprises a valvingmember 42 arranged to close achannel 353, forming part of theduct 351, only when fluid flows from thechamber 34 to thechamber 33. To open this passage anelectromagnet 43 is operated (in know manner) to raise aneedle element 44 to enable the action of the fluid to raise thevalving member 43. Thevalve 41 can be by-passed by asecond valve 45, operated manually by alever 451 and apull rod 452. Thevalve 45 is normally closed and allows fluid to pass only when thepull rod 452 is pulled. - It will be assumed that initially the door 1 is open and that the actuator 2 is not operated (ie with its movable member 3 retracted downwards). In this situation the
piston 32 is lowered within thechamber 33 and thepiston 31 is in its lower end position (as shown in Figure 2). - To close the door, pressure is applied to the actuator 2 so that it extends its rod 3 and urges the
shaft 22 upwards. This thrust is opposed by the downwardly directed thrust provided by the weight of the door 1 and of other members rigid therewith and by the force of thespring 163 transmitted to thepiston 31 via the liquid filling thechambers duct 35. In relation to the relatively steep inclination of thegrooves 24, said opposing thrusts cause the movement of theshaft 22 to initially produce only rotation of theelement 21 about the axis A without any axial movement. This produces integral rotation of thecolumn 11 and hence of thestructure 10, with consequent movement of the door 1 until it rests against the door aperture. The movement of the door 1 andstructure 10 is guided by one ormore levers 4 hinged to the door and to the frame such that the door undergoes roto-translational movement. - When the door 1 rests against the
frame 9, because of the fact that rotation of theelement 21 is prevented the further upward movement of the rod of the actuator 2 causes thepiston 31 to rise by virtue of the helical engagement between 22 and 21 (thecolumn 11 being axially fixed). This produces compression of thechamber 33, the liquid contained in it passing through theduct 35 and into thechamber 34 as thevalve 41 allows this passage. The expansion of thechamber 34 results in axial raising of thepiston 32 and hence of thesupport element 12 and with this the door 1 (against the action of the spring 163). This raising results in mutual engagement of thelocking elements 8 so mechanically locking the door 1 to theframe 9, this locking being protected even if the operating pressure fails in the actuator 2, in that the operating liquid cannot leave thechamber 34 as thevalve 41 prevents the liquid returning to thechamber 33, thepiston 32 hence being maintained constantly raised. - To open the door, the rod of the actuator 2 is moved downwards with simultaneous opening of the
valve 41 by controlled electromagnetic action. The operating liquid can hence pass from thechamber 34 to thechamber 33 and this, by virtue of the weight of the door 1, the action of thespring 163 and the suction action of thepiston 31, causes firstly the downward movement of thepiston 32 and hence disengagement of theelements 8, and then rotation of thecolumn 11 of thestructure 10 in the opening direction. - The second valve is used to release the door 1 from its closed position, for example if because of a fault or another reason it is not possible to open the
solenoid valve 41. In this case thepull rod 452 is used to manually operate thelever 451 which opens thevalve 45, so enabling the liquid to return to thechamber 33. - The locking system according to the present invention is simple and reliable. The installation of the door 1 and
structure 10 do not require particular precision in relation to the position of thelocking elements 8 because the door 1 moves upwards until thelocking elements 8 have mutually engaged and is then maintained automatically by the action of thevalve 41 in the position reached, whatever this position is. This also means that there is substantially no slack between the lockingmembers 8. - Figure 3 shows a second embodiment, which differs from the preceding in that the
second chamber 34 is formed within a second cylindrical axial cavity provided in thecolumn 11 above thewall 36, and thesecond support element 12 is defined by a cylindrical jacket, coaxial and external to thecolumn 11, which supports the door 1 both for rotation and for vertical movement. In this case thearms 14 are fixed to thejacket 12 and the door 1 is fixed to thearms 14 so as to move vertically with them. Thejacket 12 is constrained by axial grooves andprojections 191 to thecolumn 11 so that it rotates rigidly with it but is able to undergo vertical movement relative to it. Thesecond piston 32 is rigidly fixed to thecylindrical jacket 12 and thepassage duct 35 is provided within thewall 36, to which the valve means 40 are applied. - The operation of the device is substantially as heretofore described, with the difference that rotation of the
column 11 produces rotation of thejacket 12 and hence of thestructure 10, whereas upward movement of thepiston 31 produces consequent movement of thepiston 32 and hence the raising of thejacket 12 and thereby of the door 1.
