Definitions
- the present invention relates to an inwardly opening tilting door with a new double elevation system and more particularly to a door of the type designed to close the entrances to garages and similar premises in which the door tilts from a vertical closed position into an upper horizontal open position, and is provided with a structure and means which enable it to be maintained stably in these two limit positions, and having the particular characteristic that the door opens inwardly without guide tracks leading to the ceiling and using a spring compensated system by means of which no space is lost, the door does not obstruct the street and, since it has lateral arms, it does not wobble as in the case of other sprung doors.
- Counter-balanced tilting doors used for the entrances of certain premises such as garages and the like are in some cases provided with two hinged parts which, in the closed position, are arranged vertically one above the other thereby closing the entrance, whilst in the open position these two parts of the door fold on each other such that a quarter of the door projects outside.
- the door consists of a single piece and tilts from a vertical closed position into an upper horizontal open position.
- the tilting door consists of two hinged parts
- said parts suffer from the drawback that in the open position they partially protrude outwards, and because of the current requirement that the outermost edge of the tilting doors of garages and the like should be in line with the innermost part of the pavement, this means that the entrance to the premises or garage fitted with this type of door must be set back so that the door never protrudes beyond the limits established by current requirements, i.e. such that the projecting part does obstruct the pavement where pedestrians pass.
- the door proposed by the present invention has been designed to solve the problem described above in a simple, efficient and fully satisfactory way, said door being constituted such that in the closed position it is perfectly co-planar with the frame in which it is mounted, whilst in the open position it is situated in a horizontal upper position and is set back inside the premises, without the use of aesthetically undesirable guide tracks leading to the ceiling, such that a car can approach the door without said door obstructing the street as it is opened.
- the door of the invention is mounted between a pair of lateral arms and wheels which slide along lateral guides designed for the purpose, said door being held by said lateral arms and rollers, which only allow it to move so as to open and close the door, i.e. up and down, thereby preventing wobbling and other irregular movements.
- a pulling spring is situated between each of the two main arms which comprise the lateral structure and the corresponding upper corner of the frame, in such a way that when the operator pushes the door towards the open position, and said door is no longer vertical, said springs tend to push the door constantly towards said open position, another spring being positioned between the same upper corner, provided on each side, and a lever attached to a lug joined to the upper arm, said spring acting only when the door nears the fully raised position in which the lever attached to said spring moves from a position which constitutes a continuation of the lug on which it pivots into a position perpendicular thereto.
- adjusting means consisting of a movable element, on which is mounted the roller or wheel of each of the sliding sides of the door (said roller or wheel constituting the weight stop of the door), together with an element for securing the guide loop of the main arm, thereby making it possible to adjust the general structure of the door relative to the corresponding frame both laterally and horizontally.
- figure 4 is a rear elevation of the door in the closed position.
- the door of the invention is designed to be mounted in the entrance or opening of a premises such as a garage or the like, said entrance or opening being fitted with a corresponding frame 1 on each of whose lateral or vertical columns are fixed corresponding shapes 2 with a U-shaped cross section such that their open faces are opposed.
- the door 3 is held between a pair of upper, lateral arms 4 and number of support rollers 5 which slide along the shapes 2.
- the door 3 is provided on its lower edge, when in the closed position, with a number of lateral rollers 5 which slide along the shapes 2 joined to the frame 1, said rollers 5 being removably mounted on corresponding elements 6 which, as can be seen in figure 1, are provided with elongated holes for adjusting the position of the rollers 5 so that, if necessary, the general structure of the door with all of its mechanisms can be levelled within the frame 1.
- Supports 7 are provided at each of the upper corners of the frame 1, one end of said supports constituting pivoting means for the lateral and upper arms 4, said supports 7 being provided with transverse axes or rollers 8 for joining or pivoting a strap 9 to which is fixed a spring 10 whose opposite end pivots on a lever 11 which in turn pivots on a tab 12 that emerges from the door 3 itself and on which in turn pivots the other end of the arm 4.
- the door 3 is mounted between the lateral arms 4 and the sliding guide rollers or wheels 5 which slide vertically along the lateral vertical shapes 2.
- the main arm 14 is also attached to a spring 18 which pivots between a tab 19 fixed to the arm 14 itself and the upper support 7 of each corner, being further provided with a roller 20 made of nylon or the like on which runs the strap 21 or metal band to which the spring 18 is attached.
- both of the springs 10 and 18 are fixed via straps 9 and 21 or metal bands which run over rollers, 8 and 20 respectively, made of nylon or the like.
