Definitions

  • This patent application concerns an automatic window shutter stop.
  • window shutter stops which are fixed to the external walls of the building and which automatically catch the lower edge of the window shutter when this is opened in full, have for years existed on the market.
  • These window shutter stops are in fact fitted with a "U" shaped bracket with curved elements turned upwards which is pivoted, with respect to a horizontal pin, to a support square fixed to the wall by means of a sturdy screw; it is worth mentioning that the bracket in question is box-shaped thus permitting the same to house and conceal the square which allows the same to be fixed to the wall.
  • bracket can automatically and stably lock in this horizontal position; this feature is in fact indispensable to ensure the stable locking of the window shutter in fully open position.
  • the edge of the window shutter would be released from the obstacle created by the front curved element and the window shutter would thus be free to close, even simply by the force of the wind.
  • the ratchet gear is in fact housed in the body of the "U” shaped bracket and is pivoted with respect to a horizontal pin positioned slightly forwards and parallel to the above pin which ensures pivoting between the "U” shaped bracket and square.
  • hooking between the tooth of the square and said ratchet gear occurs at the end of the backward oscillation of the "U” shaped bracket when the ratchet gear, during its upward rise - together with the "U" shaped bracket - passes over and securely hooks the tooth of the support square.
  • This operation can in fact be carried out by releasing the ratchet gear from the tooth of the support square; this may be done by means of a trigger fitted to the ratchet gear and which projects from the front section of the "U" shaped bracket immediately under the front curved element.
  • a window shutter stop of type described above is illustrated in FR 2496746 belonging to the same applicant who, by means of the present invention, aimed at overcoming the inconveniences mentioned here below which prejudiced the device described in the FR 2496746 patent.
  • the purpose of this invention is to realise a window shutter stop having a similar basic structure to that of the above window shutter stops, without the risk however that the ratchet gear in the "U" shaped bracket, breaks.
  • the locking system between the box-shaped bracket and the relevant square has been re-designed, eliminating the reciprocally stopping elements subject to bending strain, but hooking the elements subjected to more supportable compression strain.
  • the window shutter stop according to the invention generally consists of an oscillating box-shaped bracket (1) provided with two curved elements (1a and 1b) joined by a horizontal wall (1c) and pivoted, with respect to a horizontal transverse pin (2), to a shaped square (3) provided at the rear end with a screw (4) used to fix the same to the wall.
  • the front end of the square (3), housed in the box-shaped square (1) terminates at the top with a short nib (5) having a rectilinear upper wall (5a) and a lower sloping wall (5b).
  • an "L" shaped lever (7) having vertical wing (7a) turned upwards and subject to the thrust of a spring (8) fitted between said wing (7a) and a transverse section (1d) in the longitudinal wall (1c) of the bracket (1), is pivoted with respect to a second transverse pin (6).
  • This slider (11) being able to translate alternatively with respect to the longitudinal axis of the bracket (1) according to the positions of the relevant operating lever (7), while keeping parallel and in contact with the inner face of the longitudinal wall (1c) of the bracket (1).
  • the block (11) fitted at the top of the lever (7) moves back briefly and passes over the nib (5) of the square (3) thanks to the thrust of the spring (8), so that it positions itself exactly between the inner face of the longitudinal wall (1c) of the bracket (1) and the upper rectilinear wall (5a) of the nib (5).
  • bracket (1) It is the very provision of said block (11) between bracket (1) and the square (3) as a spacer, which is the feature that prevents the bracket (1) from rotating freely downwards around its pivoting pin (2).
  • the number (12) refers to a piston having horizontal axis with relevant spring (12a) provided at the top of the rear curved element (1a) of bracket (1) which cushions the impact of the edge of the window shutter, while the number (13) refers to a cap which can be fitted into different positions on the top of the front curved element (1b) in order to regulate the centre to centre distance between the two curved elements of the device according to the invention.
