  • the drive mechanism of the deck such a roller shutter takes position inside a box arranged in the upper part of an opening corresponding to a door, window, French window or the like.
  • the manual traction member which is wound up, at the less partially, around a pulley fitted to one of the ends of said winding shaft, falls down, through a opening provided for this purpose at the level of said box, on the side internal to the house with respect to said door, French window Or other.
  • this traction member has tendency to interfere with the maneuver by getting caught in the rebate between the sash and the frame, which can, in the long run, cause damage to the carpentry, especially if we just force, however, the closing of the door, window or the like.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to respond to the aforementioned problem, that is to avoid that a traction, of the cord, strap, chain or other type, does not falls, for reasons of space requirement of the device for driving a roller shutter, in front of an opening door, window or the like, while at the same time avoiding any return device which would prevent the user from acting, directly, through this traction member on the pulley supra.
  • the present invention relates to a rolling shutter comprising a manual drive device in the form of a pulley provided suitable for rotating a shaft of winding an apron, on this pulley coming to wind at least partially, a manual traction member, such a strap, a chain, a cord or the like, of which less one strand is made accessible to a user, characterized by the fact that it further comprises means of recall designed elastic capable of repelling, elastically, the strands defined by the manual traction member outside the plane passing through said pulley, while allowing this or these strands to reposition themselves in this plane, against action elastic return means, under the effect of a traction printed on this strand or at least one of them during a control when deploying or folding the shutter curtain rolling.
  • the aforementioned elastic return means may arise in different embodiments and be implemented, depending on the case, inside or outside of a box receiving the roller shutter deck, or even in the thickness of a wall of this box.
  • the present invention relates to the field of roller shutters operated manually by a user.
  • Such a rolling shutter 1 is intended to equip a door 2, window or the like, comprising a sleeping frame 3 on which is articulated at least one opening 4 possibly provided with a glazing 5.
  • This roller shutter 1 comprises a box 6 surmounting this door 2, window or the like and comprising, essentially, a outer wall 7, an inner wall 8, a wall upper 9 as well as an opening for the passage of a apron 12 able to wind around a winding shaft 13 disposed inside said box 6.
  • This rolling shutter 1 in fact comprises a device manual drive 14 consisting of a pulley 15 in engagement with the winding shaft 13, at one of the ends 16 of this latest.
  • a manual traction member 17 such as a cord 18, a strap, chain or the like by defining one or two strands 19, 19 'made accessible to a user.
  • this rolling shutter 1 comprises means for elastic return 21 designed capable of elastically repelling the or the strands 19, 19 'defined by the manual traction member 17 outside the plane P passing through the pulley 15.
  • Such means elastic return 21 also allow this or these strands 19, 19 'to reposition themselves in this plane P, against the action of the elastic return means 21 under the effect of a traction printed on these strands 19, 19 'or at least one of them during an order for deployment or folding of the apron 12 of the roller shutter 1.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 have been shown, a first mode of realization corresponding to elastic return means 21 located at the inner wall 8 of the box 6, at outside of the latter.
  • these elastic return means 21 are in the form of a spring 22, here shown in helical form, arranged near the opening 20 by which the manual traction member 17 emerges from the box 6 crossing the inner wall 8 from which said spring 22 is, moreover, made integral through suitable fixing means 23.
  • Such a spring 22 comprises, on the one hand, an end 25 kept fixed relative to the box 6 and, on the other hand, a free end 24 capable of moving, elastically relative to said fixing means 23, in front of opening 20 of which at least part is located in the plane P of the pulley 15.
  • This free end 24 of the spring can advantageously receive a roller 26 capable of entering contact with the manual traction unit 17.
  • this spring 22 and, more particularly, its end free 24 possibly provided with the roller 26, is designed capable of elastically push the strand (s) 19, 19 'out of the plane P passing through said pulley 15, in particular when the member 17 is not requested.
  • a situation is, more precisely, represented in FIGS. 3 and 4 corresponding, respectively, in an elevation view and from below the box 6 of the rolling shutter 1.
  • the manual traction member 17 is, advantageously, moved outside the glazing 5 and generally outside of the opening 4.
  • This spring 22 is also designed capable of allowing this or these strands 19, 19 'to position themselves in the plane P of the pulley 15 under the impulse of a traction exerted on the organ of manual traction 17. In fact, such traction can be exerted on one 19 or the other 19 'of the strands of said organ traction 17 during a deployment or folding command of the roller shutter deck 12 1. This situation has, more in particular, was shown in Figure 2.
  • this roller shutter 1 can be completed by a housing 27 inside which are arranged, at least in part, the elastic return means 21. Such a housing 27 is then located near the opening 20 and secured to the box 6 of the roller shutter 1 by means suitable fixing 28.
  • Such a housing 27 has a function, essentially, aesthetic intended, more particularly, to obscure the presence of elastic return means 21.
  • this box 27 can also have a technical function consisting in guiding the strands 19, 19 'and in maintaining these last constantly in contact with the free end 24 of the spring 22, in particular with the roller 26.
  • this housing 27 has walls, at least one of which is suitable for constitute a stop against which comes to rest and come to rest on the fixed end 25 of a spring 22 of the type helical.
  • such a housing 27 is in the form of a simple cover 29 attached to the box 6, after the introduction of the return means elastic 21, over the latter.
  • this housing 27 is in the form of a box provided with a certain number of orifices allowing passage of the traction member manual 17 and inside which are pre-assembled the elastic return means 21.
  • a box can, for example, be designed to be reported later on an already existing roller shutter box 6 1.
  • these elastic return means 21 can still be located at the underside 10 of the box 6 and this inside, outside or in the thickness of this underside 10.
  • Such elastic return means 21 are then presented under the shape of a drawer 31 provided with at least one orifice 32 for the passage of the manual traction member 17 and mounted sliding through slides 33 at the right of a window 34 formed in the inner wall 8 or in the underside 10 of the box 6 and, this, enters a position in which the orifices 32 lie, substantially, in the plane P of the pulley 15 and a position offset from this plane P.
  • this drawer 31 is subjected to the action of a spring 35 in order to repel elastically the strand (s) 19, 19 ′ defined by the manual traction 17 outside this plane P passing through said pulley 15, while allowing this or these strands 19, 19 'of come to reposition in this plane P, against the action of said spring 35, under the effect of a traction imparted to one of them at least during a deployment command or folding up of the apron 12 of the rolling shutter 1.
  • Such elastic return means 21 in the form of a drawer 31 can be installed inside, outside or even in the thickness of the underside 10 or the inner wall 8 of the box 6.
