Definitions

  • the invention relates to the technical sectors of so-called sectional doors, that is to say including several panels hinged to each other and likely to slide along guide profiles to ensure opening or closing various places, which can be moved or not, such as transport vehicles goods, or garages or other storage places.
  • sectional panel doors are well known in many closure applications and is described in particular in document US-A-4,979,553. These doors are arranged with a plurality of wooden, metal, plastic or other material that will mate with each other through shapes particular interlocking allowing their movement along guide rails presenting several profiles allowing to pass from a vertical plane to a plane horizontal and vice versa for opening or closing allowing access to the desired location.
  • guide rails are fixed vertically on the interior uprights of the vehicle chassis platform. These rails include a vertical part corresponding to the height of the opening, a radius of curvature with an extension of a horizontal rail part.
  • the different panels of the doors are for example in wood material and have complementary profiles in rebate allowing the installation of a seal between the sections successive panels. Furthermore, it is provided at the ends of the panel upper, lower panel, and some intermediate panels to position guide rollers capable of sliding in the raceway formed on rails.
  • These casters include an axle which is fixed externally to the section Signs.
  • the sectional closing door is of the type comprising a plurality of panels each arranged with one or two profiled end shapes allowing, after coupling together according to two consecutive panels, the formation of an unclosed ball joint of the panels together, said panels panels being associated with means allowing their displacement from one position vertical to a horizontal position to allow the opening or closing of door, and it is characterized in that said shapes, arranged on all or part of the length of the panels, are internally profiled to allow all or part of their length, the positioning and housing of connecting axes associated with the means on the one hand, and in this that said forms are arranged to authorize the reception and nesting of a profiled complementary piece constituting a jumper made in one or more parts along the length of the various panels and forming a cover ensuring the finish closed of the ball joint, on the other hand.
  • FIGS. 1A, 1B, 1C show the principle of articulation of the panels between them and their mounting in a schematic illustration illustrated in the title of the prior art defined by patent application FR 96.15407.
  • each panel (2) with the exception of the end panels upper and lower is made with two end shapes (2a), (2b) particular and complementary allowing the formation of an unclosed ball joint panels between them.
  • These forms (2a) - (2b) are established on all or part of the panel length.
  • a first form (2a) is produced with a part partially spherical not closed, revealing an opening (2a-1).
  • Moon (2a-2) of the ends is connected to the plane (2a-3) outside of the panel, the other end (2a-4) projects beyond the side edge (2a-5).
  • Said spherical part is established to constitute externally and internally housing.
  • the other end (2b) of the panel (2) is arranged with an interior profile curvilinear (2b-1) established according to a radius corresponding to the spherical part of the first end (2a) of the panel to form a support and return plane.
  • This curvilinear profile (2b-1) is extended externally by an overhanging part in shape of sphere (2b-2) not closed by making appear an opening (2b-3) in a slot (2b-4) or housing of said first end (2a-2) of the panel.
  • This shape in sphere lies substantially in the same plane as the previous one so that the coupling of two consecutive panels is carried out by the introduction of the first spherical end (2a-4) in the aforementioned slot (2b-4) of the second (2b) end of the panel.
  • the openings (2a-1) and (2b-2) established on each of said said spherical parts are identical and come opposite one another when the consecutive panels are strictly in axial alignment.
  • the inner diameter of said second sphere is advantageously established to allow positioning, centering and holding the axis (7a) of guide rollers (7) of the aforementioned type.
  • the bottom interior (2b-5) of said second sphere has a curvilinear projecting shape may constitute the seat of the aforementioned roller axis.
  • a part is attached (8) complementary forming a cover and incidentally constituting the support for casters.
  • This part is established in the form of a substantially shaped jumper with curvilinear U-shaped to be engaged inside the spherical parts mentioned above formed on the panels.
  • This jumper piece thus presents wings (8a) forming lips capable of being articulated by thickness reductions (8b) with the bottom face (8c) of the jumper. This thus offers a certain elasticity.
  • Its external face (8d) is also of spherical profile to come to fit and close the complementary parts of the device precisely.
  • the roller axle is perfectly maintained between the rider's lips and the bottom of the spherical part of the sign.
  • each panel of the door sectional except for the upper and lower panels are arranged with complementary profiles fitting and being guided on complementary profiles adjacent panels, in the manner of a ball joint and in that said guide said sections between them is effected at an angle such that in position 90 ° angular orientation of a panel relative to the adjacent panel the connection is effective, and in that the jumper piece is arranged with a profile ensuring a connection and integration into one of the profiles of the end parts during maximum tilting of one panel with respect to the adjacent one.
  • the shapes of the profiled end parts panels are of the type likely to receive at least one part forming rider and cover, U-shaped with wings forming lips with capacity deformation elastic with a bottom and connection face and the face of which outer with spherical profile fitting into spherical shapes complementary and forming the joint, the rider part being remarkable in that it is arranged between its wings with a curvilinear connection profile of thin and a long curved profile leg in the base begins at the connection zone between one of the wings and the bottom face, and the end being projecting very substantially beyond the plane of the junction between the other wing and the bottom face, and in that said tab defines with the bottom face a curvilinear profile gap or cavity
  • the sectional door includes several panels (3) mounted and coupled consecutively.
  • Each panel (3) except the end panels upper and lower is arranged with profiled end shapes complementary fitting and being guided on complementary profiles of adjacent panels in the manner of a ball joint, guiding being carried out according to a angulation such that in a 90 ° angular orientation position of a panel by report to the adjacent panel the link is made.
  • each panel (3) comprises at a first end an upper end zone (3a) and at the second end an end zone lower (3b) which are likely to nest in the shapes of the panel adjacent (3b - 3a) while ensuring continuity over a wide angular section binding and guiding.
  • the first end form (3a) is arranged with a reference face (3a1) forming a curvilinear seat having one or more protruding rods (3a2) projecting inwards from which a zone (3a3) is arranged curvilinear fork, not closed, defining with the seat shape a space (3a4) also curvilinear.
  • the connecting and projecting zones (3a2) are rigid.
  • the second end zone (3b) is arranged with a face of reference (3b1) forming a seat of curvilinear configuration and having at a end adjacent to the tilting plane of the panels relative to the others, a connection area (3b2) from which a profile (3b3) is established curvilinear capable of cooperating with the first end shape (3a). More in particular, this non-closed profile (3b3) is established according to an angular sector of around 260 ° with an opening (3b4) around 100 °.
  • the profile (3b3) defines with the reference face (3b1) an interval (3b5) forming a housing capable of receive the corresponding part (3a3a) from the fork part established at the other end of the panel, as shown in Figure (3A) of the drawings.
  • the profile (3b3) is arranged with two protruding projections (3b6) and constituting zones stop of the wings of the rider (4) shutter.
  • the interior cavity (3b7) established at from the profile (3b3) allows the reception, the guidance of the wings (4a) of the rider (4).
  • This the latter is arranged between its wings (4a) with a curvilinear connection profile (4b) of small thickness and a tab (4c) of curvilinear profile of great length
  • the base (4d) originates at the connection zone between one of the wings (4a) and the bottom face (4th) and the end (4f) being projecting very substantially beyond the junction plane between the other wing (4a), and the bottom face.
  • said tab (4c) defines with the bottom face (4th) an interval or cavity of curvilinear profile.
  • This curvilinear tab (4c) of great length is capable of engaging and be guided in the interval (3a4) established on the profiled form (3a) of the end of the sign.
