Definitions

  • the invention relates to profiled plastic blades for curtain closure for furniture. She also relates to furniture including such curtains.
  • the profiled blades for curtain closure for furniture usually have a blade body of polygonal cross section comprising on its sides of male and female connection and articulation means respectively, ensuring a connection of each blade with its neighbors so that the blades can have a relative movement of rotation with respect to other.
  • the blade body can be provided in several modules each of polygonal cross section connected by hinges for example in flexible plastic.
  • the blades When making a curtain, the blades are connected to each other by the connecting means and of articulation.
  • This curtain is arranged at its two ends in slides fixed around the opening to be closed. When opening, we slide the curtain in the slides configured to cause the curtain to rotate backwards and ensure its storage out of the opening.
  • the rigid part of the blades for curtain closure for furniture is made by extrusion of a single plastic material.
  • the rigid part blades is therefore of a single color in all its mass.
  • the plastic chosen must be of good quality quality to give a beautiful finish to the curtain, which leads to significant raw material costs.
  • the present invention is specially intended for furniture type curtain blades. She aims therefore to overcome the drawbacks relating to the blades of curtains of this type.
  • the invention provides a profiled blade for furniture curtain closure according to claim 1.
  • the part of the blade made with the first plastic material is substantially consisting of the visible main wall and the adjacent primers of the transverse walls.
  • the part of the blade made with the first plastic material includes the visible main wall and the adjoining parts visible in the closed state.
  • the first plastic material constitutes the thickness of the visible part of the blade in position closed.
  • the first plastic material is of noble material and the second plastic material is economic material, including recovery.
  • the attachment means male comprises a cylinder rigidly connected to a wall transverse substantially to the edge of the wall main, by a curved arm extending the wall, a step separating it, a bracket adjoining the arm opposite the step, a semi-annular free space existing between the cylinder and the wall as well as the arm;
  • the female attachment means comprises a sector of open cylinder of shape substantially complementary to that of the semi-annular free space;
  • Wall main not visible, the setback, the arm and at least the primer of the transverse wall being made at least for their face up facing outward in the first noble plastic material.
  • At least the wall main not visible, the transverse wall, the stem, the cylinder, a substantial part of the transverse wall, and the open cylinder sector of the female means are realized in the second economical plastic material, in particular of recovery.
  • the blade comprises one or more modules each of cross section transverse trapezoidal and one or more bands of connection of two neighboring modules;
  • the means of attachment male include a cylinder connected to a transverse wall by a connecting strip;
  • female attachment means include a cylinder;
  • the main wall (s) being made of noble material, as well as at least the primers of the walls transverse while the rest of the blade is made in an economical material, especially recycled.
  • plastic recovery materials economical plastic, which further reduces costs and to reuse scrap material.
  • the invention also relates to a piece of furniture comprising a opening with a movable curtain, formed by the blades assembled together, the blades are found in the opening being in the closed position and those located outside the opening and invisible in open or closed position.
  • the blade shown in section in Figure 1 is formed of a module 1, hollow, of cross section generally polygonal or pseudo polygonal comprising two main walls 10, 11 connected in part and on the other by two transverse walls 13, 14.
  • the wall 10 defines, with regard to its face outside the visible part of the blade when it is incorporated in a curtain 50 of slats.
  • the wall 10 is substantially flat.
  • transverse walls 13, 14 also form those of the blade. They also have a profile general with convexity turned towards the interior of module 1.
  • Each of the transverse walls 14, 13 of the blade, and therefore of module 1 includes next to its part median attachment means, male 2 and female 3.
  • the male attachment means 2 comprises a cylinder closed axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of module 1 (i.e. perpendicular to the drawing plane).
  • This closed cylinder 2 is mechanically and rigidly connected to the transverse wall 14, substantially towards the edge of the main wall 10, by a recess 23a, short, directed towards the wall 11 and substantially perpendicular to the wall 10.
  • the cylinder 2 is also connected by an arm 23 which is directed towards the outside of module 1 according to a general direction substantially parallel to the wall 10.
  • This arm 23 is curved with a concavity turned towards the side of the wall 11 and is located in extension of the wall 14, the recess 23a separating them.
  • cylinder 2 is connected by a bracket 24 adjoining the arm 23, opposite 23a.
  • the stem 24 is directed towards the angle of the transverse wall 14 and of the wall 11 as well as towards the axis of cylinder 2.
  • the wall 14, like the arm 23, are curved around the axis of cylinder 2 which is coaxial to them. Of plus, there is between cylinder 2 and wall 14 as well that arm 23 a closed semi-annular free space of a side by the bracket 24 and open on the opposite side.
  • the female attachment means 3 comprises a sector of open cylinder, of shape substantially complementary to that of the semi-annular free space surrounding the cylinder 2. Part of the cylinder area is formed by a portion 25 of the wall 13. The opening of the cylinder 3 is directed towards the extension of the wall 10.
  • the cylinder 3 is connected to the wall transverse 13, towards the edge of the wall 1C, first place by a first section 27a of the wall 13, of form complementary to that of arm 23 and in the same direction. And, secondly, by a second section 28a, adjoining the first section 27a and of form complementary to that of the gallows 24 and according to the same direction.
  • the second section 28a adjoins the portion 25 of the wall 13.
  • This portion 25 is connected to the main wall 11 by a third section 25 of the wall 13, which is inclined on the wall 11 to form with it an obtuse angle.
  • the third section 26 is therefore directed substantially towards the axis of cylinder 3.
  • male attachment means and female 2, 3 are of a type such that two neighboring blades assembled to each other by these attachment means cooperating with each other can pivot relatively relative to each other around the common axis of attachment means 2, 3 without possibility of sliding relative to each other along an axis orthogonal to the common axis of the fastening means 2, 3.
  • Two neighboring blades can be found one by relative to each other in two extreme positions.
  • the rolled up portions of the curtain so the slats are, in the furniture produced, invisible or almost invisible.
  • the blades described are intended to be assembled by cooperation of the male and female means 2, 3 to form a movable curtain 50.
  • This curtain presents the blades with their horizontal longitudinal axis (case) or vertical (not shown).
  • the curtain 50 is intended for close the opening 51 of the cabinet 52.
  • slides 53 are provided. These slides 53 define a part, in the opening 51, where the blades provide the closed and are in the closed position.
  • a 54 elbow slides is hidden by a part 55 of the cabinet.
  • the slides 53 also have a hidden part located under part 55 located near a roller winding 56. On the elbow 54 and the roller 56, the blades are in the open position. But then they are invisible.
  • the wall 10, and possibly the arm 23, is (are) made of a first material, while the rest of the blade, including the hooking means 2, 3, is made of another material.
  • the rest of the blade remains invisible, including in the piece of furniture produced is made of less noble material, therefore more economical. This part can be, if necessary, of a neutral color.
  • the two materials respectively constituting the visible part and the non-visible part of the blade are coextruded in a die to make the blade in one single operation.
  • the noble material is used to make the visible main wall throughout its thickness.
