Description
- The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a movable gate intended for closing a passage, wherein an elongated carrier functions to support railings or the like closing means forming part of the gate as well as to connect said gate to a support anchored with respect to the ground, relative to which the gate is movable. From European Patent No. 0 128 248 a gate is known which is provided with a carrier, which is made up of a single beam, in which pretensioned wires are provided, by means of which a pressure load is applied to the beam in order to prevent vertically downward deflection of the beam.
- Generally this construction is satisfactory per se, but one drawback is inter alia the fact that tensioning of said wires usually has to take place on the site where the gate is to be placed, which involves extra cost and which furthermore implies the risk that the pretension is not optimally set up.
- Furthermore there is always the risk of breaking of the pre-tensioned wires. A further drawback is that an eccentric arrangement of the rollers will lead to a disadvantageous loading of the carrier.
- According to the invention a gate is manufactured in which the carrier is built up of two vertically spaced-apart beams extending substantially horizontal and parallel to each other, whereby a stress is first set up in at least one of the beams, whereupon the stressed beam is fixedly connected to the other beam by means of plate-shaped parts symmetrically positioned on either side of the beams, said plate-shaped parts being spaced-apart in horizontal direction, at least over part of their height, by a distance which is larger than the width of the beams, after which the stress of the stressed beam(s) is released.
- When at least one of the beams is correctly stressed the carrier thus obtained will be slightly concave after the stress is released. Upon assembly of the gate it is then possible to arrange that the carrier is positioned in such a manner that the centre of curvature of the slightly concave carrier is located vertically above the carrier. If the carrier should slightly sag under the influence of the weight of the gate, the carrier will take up an at least substantially horizontal position, so that a light-weight an yet easily operated gate has been obtained. It is thereby possible to manufacture the carrier under optimal circumstances, for example in an air-conditioned room, so that the carrier is capable of optimally meeting the requirements made. Furthermore the completed carrier does not contain any pretensioned wires or the like, whilst the work which needs to be carried out on the site where the gate is to be placed is reduced to a minimum. The plate-shaped parts of the carrier thereby provide the required stiffness in horizontal direction as well as a good torsional stiffness.
- A further aspect of the invention relates to a gate for closing a passage manufactured by carrying out the above described method as claimed in
claim 5. - The invention will be explained in more detail hereafter with reference to parts of the gate according to the invention diagrammatically illustrated in the accompanying Figures.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a part of a carrier for a gate according to the invention, with a few railings connected thereto and a few rollers guiding the carrier.
- Figure 2 is a larger-scale cross-sectional view of Figure 1.
- Figure 1 shows part of a
carrier 1 arranged horizontally in use, said carrier together with thevertical railings 2 connected thereto forming a gate, in a similar manner as described in the aforesaid European Patent No. 0 128 248. When used as a gate which can be opened and closed the carrier is guided by a plurality ofrollers 3 secured to supports anchored in the ground, a few of said rollers being shown in Figures 1 and 2. Also with regard to a support of the movable gate of this type reference may be made to the aforesaid European Patent No. 0 128 248, which is why it is not considered necessary to discuss this in more detail herein. - As is apparent from Figures 1 and 2 the carrier is provided with two
beams 4 and 5, one being positioned directly above the other, which are of rectangular section in the illustrated embodiment and which are arranged in such a manner that their long sides extend vertically. - The two
beams 4 and 5 are interconnected by two plate-shaped parts shaped parts plate portion 8, which is joined at its upper edge by aplate portion 9 sloping upwards in the direction of the beam 4, whilst each plate portion is joined at its lower edge by aplate portion 10 sloping downwards in the direction of thebeam 5. - A double-folded
plate portion 11 joins the upper edge of theplate portion 9 remote from theplate portion 8, saidplate portion 11 abutting against one side of the upper beam 4. - Similarly a double-folded
plate portion 12 joins the lower edge of theplate portion 10 remote from theplate portion 8, saidplate portion 12 abutting against one side of thelower beam 5. - The plate-
shaped parts plate portions 11 to the beam 4 by means of rivets or the like. Similarly the lower double-foldedplate portions 12 are fixed to thelower beam 5 by means of rivets or the like. - As is furthermore shown in the Figures regularly spaced-apart
bars 13 are provided between thebeams 4 and 5 in order to keep thebeams 4 and 5 the desired distance apart, in particular during assembly of thecarrier 1. For this purpose the ends of thebars 13 may for example be threaded and be screwed into corresponding threaded holes provided in thebeams 4 and 5. Furthermore it is possible to provide thebars 13 with shoulders (not shown), which abut against the boundary surfaces of thebeams 4 and 5 facing each other, whilst the ends of thebars 13 extending beyond said shoulders are inserted into corresponding holes provided in thebeams 4 and 5. - Furthermore vertically aligned holes are provided in the plate-
shaped part 7, more in particular in theplate portions shaped part 7, through whichbars 2 forming the railings of the gate are passed, which are secured against shifting in their longitudinal direction by means not shown. - When the
carrier 1 is to be assembled a stress will be set up in at least one of thebeams 4 and 5, preferably a tensile stress in the upper beam 4. Then thebeam 5 will be mounted at the desired distance from the beam 4 by interposing the bars 4, whereupon thebeams 4 and 5 are interconnected by securing the plate-shaped parts beams 4 and 5. Then the tensile stress on the beam 4 may be released. Upon releasing of the tensile stress on the beam 4 the carrier thus formed will tend to become slightly concave, in such a manner that the centre of curvature of said hollow carrier, seen in Figures 1 and 2, will be located above the carrier. During normal use the carrier, which is only supported near one end, at least in certain positions, will tend to deflect slightly under the influence of the weight of the gate, which will eventually result in a substantially straight position of the carrier. Another possibility to achieve a similar effect is to apply a pressure load to thebeam 5 prior to assembling thebeam 5 and the beam 4 into a carrier in the above-described manner. A third possibility is to apply a tensile load to the beam 4 as well as a pressure load to thebeam 5 before interconnecting the twobeams 4 and 5 in the above-described manner in order to form thecarrier 1. - As is apparent from the Figures a symmetric construction of the carrier has been obtained, which carrier is supported in its central longitudinal plane by means of
rollers 3 rolling on the upper side of the beam 4 and on the bottom side of thebeam 5 respectively, as a result of which good running qualities of the beam are obtained. - Both the
beams 4 and 5 and the plate-shaped parts shaped parts - For the
beams 4 and 5 zinc-plated sections may be used, on which therollers 3 roll. Wear-resistant running surfaces for the runners are thereby obtained, namely shining borders formed by the parts of thebeams 4 and 5 extending beyond the plate-shaped parts shaped parts - By using the construction according to the invention it is thus possible to obtain an inexpensive gate having good running qualities and a beautiful appearance, which is retained also after prolonged use.
- In addition to that the construction of the carrier is such that it is very strong and readily made of steel, as a result of which an economical manufacture of the carrier can be realized.
