Definitions

  • the invention relates to watertight sliding doors of cold rooms, acoustics, clean rooms or other and it relates more precisely to a suspension device implementing a set of rollers of particular profile cooperating with a profiled rail.
  • a new suspension device has therefore been developed in which the guide rail, the ramps serving as a notch, and the rollers themselves have a particular and original profile thanks to which the sliding of the rolling part of the roller are completely eliminated and the wear of the material is very greatly reduced.
  • the invention more specifically relates to a suspension device with profiled rollers for sliding watertight door comprising a suspension rail with inflection zones, a roller with central groove, the latter serving as a tread during the translation of said roller on said suspension rail, device according to which the roller has on either side of said groove two lateral sides inclined towards the outside intended to come into abutment against the lateral edges of ramps interposed in said inflection zones of the suspension rail, said lateral edges constituting a rolling track for the lateral sides of the rollers in the zone of the ramps, the central groove of said roller being released from the rail in said zone, one of the lateral edges bending outwards to allow the rollers to slide towards the bottom of the ramps, allowing a transverse movement of the roller relative to the longitudinal axis of the rail.
  • the central groove of the roller has a rounded shape corresponding to a central rounding of the tread of the suspension rail.
  • the central groove of the roller is framed by two small flats, followed by the two lateral sides inclined towards the outside.
  • the ramps have the shape of troughs, the bottom of which is below the top of the rounded part of the suspension rail and the lateral edges of which are inclined relative to the horizontal. at an angle equal to the inclination of the outer sides of the roller.
  • the suspension rail 2 is profiled, its tread consisting of a central rounded 3 framed by two flat areas 4.
  • This rail roll rollers designated as a whole by the reference 1 whose shape appears more clearly in Figure 2.
  • the outer part of the roller has a central groove 10 which has a rounded shape of course corresponding to the rounded 3 of the rail.
  • the central groove is framed by two small flats 11 followed by two side panels 12 inclined outward.
  • the internal chamber 13 of the roller contains two ball bearings 14 mounted on the axis 15 and locked by a washer 16.
  • the axis 15 passes through an internal flange 17, the seal being ensured by a ring 18.
  • An external flange 19 closes the internal chamber of the roller.
  • a carriage designated as a whole by the reference 5 is attached to the axis 15 of the roller 1. It consists of a vertical bracket 6 and a main body 7 of the carriage, of generally parallelepipedal shape which is located under the rail suspension 2. A sealed door not shown is fixed to the body of the carriage through the openings 8 by a conventional set of screw-nut fixing. A heel 9 has been mounted on the top of the body 7 of the carriage, which forms a stop, which is a little away from the bracket 6.
  • a vertical lip 20 of the profile rail 2 provided at its lower part extends longitudinally between the stop 9 of the carriage and its suspension bracket. It prevents the carriage from escaping from the suspension rail.
  • An area of the suspension rail 2, near the opening of the wall, is fixed to the frame by means of a central support 21 and at this level the upper part of the tread is interrupted and replaced by a central ramp 22 fixed to said support.
  • Said ramp has the shape of a trough whose bottom 23 is below the top of the rounded part 3 of the tread, and whose internal lateral edges (24a, 24b) are inclined relative to the horizontal by an angle equal to the inclination of the sides 12 of the roller 1. It will be noted that these lateral edges (24a, 24b) bend outwards, from the cut in the rail 2, and this up to the middle of the ramp, to return symmetrically to the other section of the rail.
  • a cover 25 fits under the rail 2 to hide the notch.
  • the end of the rail (on the right in FIG. 1) is fixed to the wall by means of an end support 26 similar to the central support 21, but equipped at its lower part with a closure stop 27 made of elastomer .
  • An end ramp 28 is attached to the rail at this end support 26 in the same way as the central ramp 22 at the support 21.
  • the end ramp 28 has the same profile as that of the ramp central but with only one inflection of its lateral edges 24.
  • the rollers are therefore supported only by means of one of their lateral sides 12, on the corresponding lateral edge 24 which constitutes their raceway and their sliding face. Due to the inflection of this lateral edge 24 of the ramp, on the side opposite the wall, the corresponding lateral panel 12 of each roller will slide on said ramp which will have the effect of both lowering the roller, and therefore the door, but also to move the support carriages 5 towards the wall and thus press the door against the opening.
  • the flats 11 may possibly come to bear on the bottom 23 of the ramp.
  • the roller then occupies a low position shown in dotted lines in FIG. 3. It shows the central ramp and the face opposite to the sliding face, which constitutes the peeling face of the roller.
  • each ramp has an action on a single inclined lateral face 12 of the roller.
  • Each ramp was produced with two lateral edges 24, which allows the ramps to operate for any configuration configuration of the device. This sliding operation of the roller is supported only by the external zone formed by its inclined side panel 12. The possible wear of this external part of the roller has no effect on the rounded central groove 10, the rolling qualities of which remain intact after numerous repeated door opening and closing operations.
  • the opening and closing stops 27 are intended to stop the door. They also prevent the door from bouncing in the event of a violent impact.
  • a safety heel 20 which can be supported on another heel 9 secured to the carriage 5. They are intended to prevent the door from derailing in the event of an impact in the latter.
  • the roller 1 could have a shape different from that illustrated in the figures from the moment it has a normal rolling face and an inclined face for sliding.
