Abstract

The connector for a glazed door panel to a frame has a screw (101) recessed into the glass panel (4) and engaging a flanged bracket (100) with a nut (103). The bracket has a pivot (132) positioned extending from the thickness of the panel which supports a second flange which carries the movable door panel. The panel thus pivots about an axis between the two faces of the panel.

Description

L'invention concerne l'assemblage d'une plaque en verre avec une structure voisine pouvant être par exemple le sol ou une autre plaque éventuellement en verre, et consiste plus précisément en un panneau formé à partir d'une plaque en verre et muni d'au moins un dispositif d'assemblage à une telle structure, le mot « verre » désignant de manière générique non seulement le verre à vitres mais également le verre à glaces et analogues.The invention relates to the assembly of a glass plate with a neighboring structure which can be for example the ground or another plate possibly made of glass, and more precisely consists of a panel formed from a glass plate and provided with at least one assembly device to such a structure, the word "glass" meaning generically not only window glass but also ice glass and the like.

L'invention est utilisable notamment pour assembler, de manière fixe, pivotante, ou amovible, un battant de porte en verre à un bâti ou à des plaques voisines pouvant être également en verre.The invention can be used in particular for assembling, so fixed, pivoting, or removable, a glass door leaf to a frame or neighboring plates which can also be made of glass.

Actuellement, l'assemblage des plaques en verre à une structure voisine est réalisé au moyen d'un ou plusieurs dispositifs d'assemblage comprenant chacun deux flasques appliqués de part et d'autre de la plaque et dont au moins l'un est fixé à la structure, directement ou par l'intermédiaire d'une ou plusieurs autres pièces ; les flasques sont fixés l'un à l'autre par vissage ou par boulonnage, et l'organe fileté mâle, présentant généralement une tête prenant appui contre l'un des flasques, traverse la plaque dans le sens de son épaisseur, et est vissé dans un trou taraudé de l'autre flasque, ou traverse cet autre flasque et est vissé dans un écrou. Dans beaucoup de cas, l'assemblage à la structure nécessite la présence d'une pièce complémentaire entre les flasques; cela est notamment le cas pour assembler une plaque en verre à une structure fixe de manière pivotante avec un axe de pivotement parallèle à la plaque entre les faces de celle-ci, ou encore pour assembler la plaque à une structure fixe de manière amovible au moyen d'une serrure, la serrure étant en général une serrure dite « à encastrer » insérée entre les flasques pour des raisons d'esthétique, ou dite « à cylindre du type européen » traversant la plaque de part en part ; dans ces cas, on réalise dans la plaque en verre une découpe épousant le contour de la pièce complémentaire insérée entre les flasques, que ce soit un pivot, ou une serrure à encastrer ou à cylindre européen.Currently, the assembly of glass plates to a structure neighbor is made by means of one or more assembly devices each comprising two flanges applied on either side of the plate and at least one of which is fixed to the structure, directly or through one or more other pieces; the flanges are fixed to each other by screwing or bolting, and the male threaded member, generally having a head resting against one of the flanges, crosses the plate in the sense of its thickness, and is screwed into a tapped hole in the other flange, or crosses this other flange and is screwed into a nut. In many case, assembly to the structure requires the presence of a part complementary between the flanges; this is particularly the case for assembling a glass plate to a fixed structure pivotally with a pivot axis parallel to the plate between the faces of the latter, or to assemble the plate to a fixed structure removably by means of a lock, the lock generally being a lock known as " recessed ”inserted between the flanges for aesthetic reasons, or called "European type cylinder" going right through the plate; in these cases, a cut is made in the glass plate following the outline of the complementary part inserted between the flanges, whether a pivot, or a built-in or European cylinder lock.

Les flasques en saillie de part et d'autre de la plaque en verre confèrent un aspect inesthétique au dispositif d'assemblage des deux côtés de la plaque, et peuvent, lorsqu'ils sont placés dans des zones de passage, être à l'origine d'écorchures et de déchirures de vêtements ; de plus, l'assemblage nécessite un relativement grand nombre de pièces; enfin, l'éventuelle découpe épousant le contour de la pièce complémentaire est délicate donc onéreuse à réaliser de manière soignée dans une plaque en verre.The flanges projecting from either side of the glass plate give an unattractive appearance to the assembly device on both sides of the plate, and may, when placed in passage areas, be responsible for abrasions and tears in clothing; Moreover, assembly requires a relatively large number of parts; finally, the possible cut following the contour of the complementary part is delicate and therefore expensive to produce in a careful manner in a baking sheet glass.

L'invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients en créant, à partir d'une plaque en verre, un panneau destiné à être assemblé à une structure voisine, muni d'un ou plusieurs dispositifs d'assemblage simples, peu onéreux, et présentant une meilleure esthétique au moins d'un côté du panneau.The invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by creating, from a glass plate, a panel intended to be assembled to a neighboring structure, fitted with one or more simple assembly devices, inexpensive, and having better aesthetics at least on one side of the sign.

A cette fin, l'invention concerne un panneau comportant une plaque en verre et au moins un dispositif d'assemblage à une structure voisine, ce dispositif d'assemblage comprenant au moins un organe fileté traversant la plaque en verre, et un flasque dans lequel pénètre cet organe fileté et maintenu par lui en position fixe par rapport à la plaque en verre d'un côté de celle-ci, de telle sorte qu'une face du flasque soit en vis-à-vis d'une face de la plaque en verre, caractérisé en ce que l'organe fileté comporte, à l'une de ses extrémités, une tête présentant une surface d'appui disposée en regard de la face du flasque qui est en vis-à-vis d'une face de la plaque en verre, sans interposition d'un flasque entre la tête de l'organe fileté et la plaque en verre.To this end, the invention relates to a panel comprising a glass plate and at least one device for joining to a structure neighboring, this assembly device comprising at least one threaded member passing through the glass plate, and a flange into which this organ penetrates threaded and held by it in a fixed position relative to the glass plate of a side of it, so that one side of the flange is facing a face of the glass plate, characterized in that the threaded member comprises, at one of its ends, a head having a bearing surface arranged in look of the face of the flange which is opposite a face of the plate in glass, without interposition of a flange between the head of the threaded member and the glass plate.

On fait donc ainsi l'économie d'un flasque, généralement métallique et relativement lourd, pour chacun des dispositifs d'assemblage.We thus do the economy of a flask, generally metallic and relatively heavy, for each of the assembly devices.

La figure 1 montre des panneaux selon l'invention, formés à partir de plaques en verre 1, 2, 3, 4, assemblés mutuellement ainsi qu'à des éléments de structure d'un bâtiment, au moyen de dispositifs d'assemblage dont ils sont munis.Figure 1 shows panels according to the invention, formed from glass plates 1, 2, 3, 4, assembled together as well as structural elements of a building, by means of assembly devices with which they are provided.

Plus précisément, trois panneaux formés à partir de plaques en verre 1, 2, 3 constituant un encadrement de porte battante formée elle-même à partir d'une plaque en verre 4, sont assemblés de manière fixe l'un à l'autre ainsi qu'à un élément de sol S, à des éléments de mur M en maçonnerie et à un élément de plafond P, tandis que le panneau de porte est assemblé mobile en pivotement par rapport à l'élément de sol S et à l'un des panneaux fixes.More specifically, three panels formed from plates in glass 1, 2, 3 constituting a hinged door frame formed itself from a glass plate 4, are fixedly assembled to each other as well as a floor element S, wall elements M in masonry and a ceiling element P, while the door panel is assembled pivotally movable relative to the floor element S and to one of the panels fixed.

Les trois plaques en verre fixes 1, 2, 3 sont deux plaques latérales 1, 3 assemblées à l'élément de sol S et aux éléments de mur M par des dispositifs d'assemblage 11 comportant chacun un seul flasque 100 fixé à la plaque en verre, ce flasque 100 appartenant à une équerre munie d'un autre flasque fixé à l'élément de sol ou à l'élément de mur par des moyens de fixation appropriés. L'autre plaque 2 est une plaque d'imposte assemblée aux deux plaques latérales 1, 3 et à l'élément de plafond P par des dispositifs d'assemblage fixe 12 comportant chacun également un flasque 100 mais cette fois fixé dans des régions adjacentes à la plaque d'imposte et à la plaque latérale ; ce flasque 100 appartient également à une équerre munie d'un autre flasque fixé à l'élément de plafond.The three fixed glass plates 1, 2, 3 are two side plates 1, 3 assembled to the floor element S and to the wall elements M by assembly devices 11 each comprising a single flange 100 fixed to the glass plate, this flange 100 belonging to a bracket provided with another flange fixed to the floor element or to the wall element by means of suitable fixing. The other plate 2 is a transom plate assembled to the two side plates 1, 3 and to the ceiling element P by devices fixed assembly 12 each also comprising a flange 100 but this time fixed in regions adjacent to the transom plate and to the side plate; this flange 100 also belongs to a square provided another flange attached to the ceiling element.

La plaque 4 à partir de laquelle est formée la porte est assemblée à l'élément de sol S et à la plaque d'imposte 2 par des dispositifs d'assemblage mobile 13, 14 respectifs, à pivotement ; ces deux dispositifs 13, 14 comportent chacun également un seul flasque 100 fixé à la plaque en verre 4 ; le dispositif d'assemblage mobile 13 pour assembler le panneau de porte à l'élément de sol comporte un autre flasque s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement au flasque 100, en une seule pièce avec celui-ci, adapté pour être accouplé à un pivot de sol, comme on le verra dans la suite ; le dispositif d'assemblage mobile 14 pour assembler à pivotement le panneau de porte au panneau d'imposte est en deux parties et comporte notamment un autre flasque pour assembler dans une région supplémentaire la plaque 2 du panneau d'imposte à la plaque latérale 1, comme on le verra dans la suite. Par ailleurs, la plaque d'imposte 2 est assemblée dans encore une autre région à l'autre plaque latérale 3 par un dispositif d'assemblage 15 comportant un unique flasque 100 fixé aux deux plaques 2, 3 et formant butée pour le panneau de porte comme on le verra dans la suite.The plate 4 from which the door is formed is assembled to the floor element S and to the transom plate 2 by devices movable assembly 13, 14 respectively, pivotally; these two devices 13, 14 also each have a single flange 100 fixed to the plate in glass 4; the movable assembly device 13 for assembling the panel door to the floor element has another flange extending substantially perpendicular to the flange 100, in one piece with the latter, adapted to be coupled to a ground pivot, as will be seen below; the movable assembly device 14 for pivotally assembling the panel panel door panel is in two parts and includes another flange to assemble the plate 2 in an additional region from the transom panel to the side plate 1, as we will see in the after. Furthermore, the transom plate 2 is assembled in another other region to the other side plate 3 by an assembly device 15 comprising a single flange 100 fixed to the two plates 2, 3 and forming stop for the door panel as will be seen below.

D'autres dispositifs d'assemblage peuvent être créés conformément à l'invention, et notamment des dispositifs d'assemblage amovible par exemple à serrure ou à verrou.Other assembly devices can be created in accordance with the invention, and in particular assembly devices removable for example with lock or bolt.

De manière générale, les dispositifs d'assemblage, en vue d'être fixés à la plaque en verre (figure 2), comportent un organe fileté 101 traversant celle-ci et comprenant une tige filetée pénétrant dans le flasque 100 pour le maintenir en position fixe par rapport à la plaque en verre, de telle sorte qu'une face du flasque 100 soit en vis-à-vis d'une face de la plaque en verre d'un côté de celle-ci.In general, the assembly devices, with a view to being attached to the glass plate (Figure 2), have a threaded member 101 passing through it and comprising a threaded rod penetrating into the flange 100 to keep it in a fixed position relative to the glass plate, such that one face of the flange 100 faces a face of the glass plate on one side of it.

Selon l'invention, l'organe fileté 101 comprend également, à son extrémité opposée au flasque 100, une tête présentant une surface d'appui disposée en regard de la face du flasque qui est en vis-à-vis d'une face de la plaque en verre 4. En l'absence de flasque interposé entre la tête de l'organe fileté 101 et la face de la plaque en verre opposée à celle qui est en vis-à-vis d'une face du flasque 100, la surface d'appui de la tête de l'organe fileté peut être appliquée contre la plaque en verre directement ou par l'intermédiaire d'une rondelle-joint, ou mieux être au moins partiellement disposée dans un logement créé pour elle dans la plaque en verre. Ici, pour loger l'organe fileté, la plaque en verre comporte un trou traversant présentant une partie cylindrique lisse du côté du flasque 100 et une partie tronconique lisse du côté opposé permettant le logement total de la tête de l'organe fileté, elle-même tronconique (l'organe fileté pouvant être une vis dite« à tête fraisée à 90°») ; le contact verre-métal entre la plaque et au moins la surface d'appui tronconique de la tête de l'organe fileté est évité par le fait qu'une rondelle cuvette 102 est interposée dans le trou traversant de la plaque en verre, entre la paroi de ce trou et l'organe fileté. Cette rondelle 102 est en matériau synthétique et comporte une partie cylindrique pour le passage du corps de l'organe fileté et une partie tronconique épousant extérieurement la forme tronconique du trou traversant et intérieurement celle de l'organe fileté. La rondelle cuvette 102 affleure approximativement la face de la plaque en verre opposée à celle qui est en regard d'une face du flasque 100, et est légèrement en retrait dans le trou traversant du côté du flasque ; la tête de l'organe fileté 101 affleure également approximativement la face de la plaque en verre opposée à celle qui est en regard du flasque de manière à ne pas faire saillie hors du trou de la plaque en verre ; le corps fileté de l'organe fileté peut être vissé dans un trou fileté du flasque, mais de préférence, il traverse un trou lisse du flasque 100 avec un léger jeu sur le diamètre pour permettre un réglage de positionnement, et l'extrémité de l'organe fileté opposée à sa tête, en saillie au-delà du flasque du côté de celui-ci qui est à l'opposé de la plaque en verre, porte un écrou 103 auto-freiné, qui permet une fixation sûre. Le contact verre-métal entre le verre de la plaque et le flasque 100 est évité grâce à l'interposition d'un joint plat 104 entre la plaque et le flasque, de telle sorte que le joint et le flasque soient « en applique » contre la plaque en verre.According to the invention, the threaded member 101 also comprises, at its end opposite to the flange 100, a head having a bearing surface arranged opposite the face of the flange which is opposite one face of the glass plate 4. In the absence of a flange interposed between the head of the organ threaded 101 and the face of the glass plate opposite to that which is opposite on one side of the flange 100, the bearing surface of the head of the threaded member can be applied against the glass plate directly or through a seal washer, or better be at least partially arranged in a housing created for it in the glass plate. Here, to house the threaded member, the glass plate has a through hole having a part cylindrical smooth on the side of the flange 100 and a smooth frustoconical part of the opposite side allowing total housing of the head of the threaded member, itself frustoconical (the threaded member can be a so-called "countersunk head screw with 90 ° ”); the glass-metal contact between the plate and at least the bearing surface tapered head of the threaded member is avoided by the fact that a washer bowl 102 is interposed in the through hole of the glass plate, between the wall of this hole and the threaded member. This washer 102 is made of material synthetic and has a cylindrical part for the passage of the body of the threaded member and a frustoconical part which conforms to the outside frustoconical of the through hole and internally that of the threaded member. The bowl washer 102 is approximately flush with the face of the glass plate opposite to that which is opposite a face of the flange 100, and is slightly recessed in the through hole on the side of the flange; the head of the threaded member 101 is also approximately flush with the face of the plate opposite the one opposite the flange so as not to protrude out of the hole in the glass plate; the threaded body of the threaded member can be screwed into a threaded hole in the flange, but preferably passes through a smooth hole in the flange 100 with a slight play on the diameter to allow a positioning adjustment, and the end of the threaded member opposite its head, protruding beyond the flange on the side thereof which is opposite the glass plate, carries a self-locking nut 103, which allows a secure fixing. Glass-metal contact between the plate glass and the flange 100 is avoided thanks to the interposition of a flat seal 104 between the plate and the flange, such so that the gasket and the flange are "applied" against the plate in glass.

Les dispositifs d'assemblage étant destinés à assembler une plaque en verre à une structure voisine, comportent également des moyens appropriés pour leur solidarisation à cette structure. Si l'élément de structure est une autre plaque en verre, les moyens de solidarisation peuvent être des moyens de fixation identiques à ceux qui viennent d'être décrits, et à cette fin, si les plaques en verre sont juxtaposées, le flasque 100 peut présenter un ou plusieurs autres trous traversants destinés chacun à l'insertion d'un organe fileté ; si les plaques en verre sont perpendiculaires, le dispositif d'assemblage peut présenter en une seule pièce deux flasques agencés comme décrit précédemment, la pièce comportant les deux flasques étant réalisée en équerre ; de manière générale, les deux flasques présentent une orientation mutuelle correspondant à l'orientation des plaques en verre à assembler. Si l'élément de structure auquel la plaque en verre doit être assemblée n'est pas une autre plaque en verre, le flasque destiné à être fixé à cet élément est agencé de manière appropriée, mais les moyens qui ont été décrits pour la fixation à une plaque en verre sont également applicables pour la fixation à une plaque en métal ou en bois. Pour une solidarisation à pivotement, le dispositif d'assemblage comprend avantageusement un flasque comme décrit ci-dessus, et, en une seule pièce avec lui, un autre flasque portant les moyens appropriés pour permettre le pivotement.The assembly devices being intended to assemble a glass plate with a neighboring structure, also include means suitable for their attachment to this structure. If the structural element is another glass plate, the joining means can be fixing means identical to those which have just been described, and to this end, if the glass plates are juxtaposed, the flange 100 may have a or several other through holes each intended for the insertion of a threaded member; if the glass plates are perpendicular, the device assembly can present in one piece two flanges arranged as described above, the part comprising the two flanges being made square; in general, the two flanges have a mutual orientation corresponding to the orientation of the glass plates to to assemble. If the structural element to which the glass plate is to be assembly is not another glass plate, the flange intended to be fixed to this element is appropriately arranged, but the means which have been described for fixing to a glass plate also apply for fixing to a metal or wooden plate. For a solidarity with pivoting, the assembly device advantageously comprises a flange as described above, and, in one piece with it, another flange carrying the appropriate means to allow pivoting.

Quelques exemples particuliers sont décrits ci-après :Some specific examples are described below:

Les figures 3 et 4 montrent une pièce en équerre entrant dans la constitution d'un dispositif d'assemblage 11 pour assembler une plaque en verre à un élément de mur ou à un élément de sol s'étendant perpendiculairement à la plaque en verre ; cette pièce comporte un flasque 100 conforme à la description précédente pour la fixation de la pièce à la plaque en verre selon un mode de fixation décrit plus haut, et un flasque 110 s'étendant perpendiculairement au premier flasque 100 et comportant un trou fraisé adapté pour recevoir la tête et une partie du corps d'une vis à tête fraisée pour la fixation de la pièce à l'élément de mur ou de sol. Comme il s'agit ici, à titre d'exemple d'une pièce en métal moulé, l'équerre présente un congé intérieur de quelques millimètres. Naturellement, un joint plat est de préférence interposé entre le flasque 100 et la plaque en verre.Figures 3 and 4 show a square piece entering the constitution of an assembly device 11 for assembling a plate in glass to a wall element or extending floor element perpendicular to the glass plate; this piece has a flange 100 in accordance with the preceding description for fixing the part to the glass plate according to a method of attachment described above, and a flange 110 extending perpendicular to the first flange 100 and having a hole countersunk suitable for receiving the head and part of the body of a head screw countersunk for fixing the part to the wall or floor element. Like him here, as an example of a cast metal part, the square has a interior leave of a few millimeters. Naturally, a flat seal is preferably interposed between the flange 100 and the glass plate.

Les figures 5 et 6 montrent une pièce en équerre entrant dans la constitution d'un dispositif d'assemblage 12 pour assembler conjointement deux plaques en verre juxtaposées, à un élément de mur ou de plafond s'étendant perpendiculairement à la plaque en verre ; cette pièce comporte un flasque 100 conforme dans deux régions à la description précédente (c'est-à-dire comportant dans deux régions un trou lisse), de manière à pouvoir fixer la pièce à une plaque en verre respective dans chacune de ces deux régions, et un flasque 120 s'étendant perpendiculairement au premier flasque 100 et comportant au moins un trou fraisé (ici deux trous fraisés) pour recevoir la tête et une partie du corps d'une vis à tête fraisée pour la fixation de la pièce à l'élément de mur ou de plafond. Comme il s'agit ici, à titre d'exemple, d'une pièce en métal plié, les deux flasques sont raccordés par une région arrondie à l'extérieur comme à l'intérieur de l'équerre. Naturellement, un joint plat est de préférence interposé entre le flasque 100 et la plaque en verre correspondante.Figures 5 and 6 show a square piece entering the constitution of an assembly device 12 for joint assembly two glass plates juxtaposed to a wall or ceiling element extending perpendicular to the glass plate; this piece features a flange 100 conforming in two regions to the previous description (i.e. having a smooth hole in two regions), so that ability to attach part to respective glass plate in each of these two regions, and a flange 120 extending perpendicular to the first flange 100 and comprising at least one countersunk hole (here two countersunk holes) for receive the head and part of the body with a countersunk head screw for fixing from the room to the wall or ceiling element. As it is here, as example, from a bent metal piece, the two flanges are connected by a rounded region on the outside and inside of the square. Naturally, a flat seal is preferably interposed between the flange 100 and the corresponding glass plate.

La figure 7 montre une pièce plane sous la forme d'un simple flasque, entrant dans la constitution d'un dispositif d'assemblage 15 pour assembler entre elles deux ou trois plaques juxtaposées en verre ; le flasque 100 comporte donc, dans trois régions, un trou lisse permettant de fixer la pièce à une plaque en verre respective. Comme le dispositif d'assemblage 15 est ici destiné à assembler seulement une plaque d'imposte et une plaque latérale, la plaque d'imposte est fixée par un organe fileté traversant l'un des trous, et la plaque latérale est fixée par deux organes filetés traversant chacun l'un des deux autres trous. Ici, le flasque est de forme approximativement carrée (avec des coins arrondis), et les trous lisses sont chacun dans un angle du carré tandis que la région du quatrième angle permet de fournir une butée au panneau de porte en position haute de celui-ci ; afin d'amortir l'impact du panneau de porte et les dégâts et le bruit qui pourraient en résulter, le flasque 100 porte, dans l'angle du carré qui n'est pas percé, un organe amortisseur 151, par exemple un disque en caoutchouc ou en feutre, par exemple collé. Naturellement, un joint plat est de préférence interposé entre le flasque 100 et les plaques en verre.Figure 7 shows a flat part in the form of a simple flange, forming part of an assembly device 15 for join together two or three juxtaposed glass plates; the flaccid 100 therefore has, in three regions, a smooth hole for fixing the piece to a respective glass plate. As the assembly device 15 is here intended to assemble only a transom plate and a plate side, the transom plate is fixed by a threaded member passing through one of the holes, and the side plate is fixed by two threaded members passing through each one of the other two holes. Here, the flange is shaped approximately square (with rounded corners), and the smooth holes are each in an angle of the square while the region of the fourth angle provides a stop for the door panel in its high position ; in order to absorb the impact of the door panel and the damage and noise that could result, the flange 100 wears, in the angle of the square which is not not pierced, a damping member 151, for example a disc in rubber or felt, for example glued. Naturally, a flat joint is preferably interposed between the flange 100 and the glass plates.

La figure 8 montre un dispositif d'assemblage 13 comportant des moyens d'articulation par pivotement pour assembler à pivotement la plaque 4 du panneau de porte à l'élément de sol S. Ce dispositif d'assemblage est plus particulièrement destiné à assembler la plaque 4 à l'élément de sol S de telle manière que le pivotement de la plaque s'effectue autour d'un axe s'étendant parallèlement à cette plaque, positionné entre les deux faces de celle-ci.FIG. 8 shows an assembly device 13 comprising pivoting means for pivotally assembling the plate 4 from the door panel to the floor element S. This assembly device is more particularly intended to assemble the plate 4 to the ground element S of such that the pivoting of the plate takes place around an axis extending parallel to this plate, positioned between the two faces of this one.

A cette fin, le dispositif d'assemblage 13 comprend une pièce en équerre (représentée seule sur la figure 9) comportant un flasque 100 pour la fixation de la pièce à la plaque en verre et un flasque 130 s'étendant perpendiculairement et comportant un trou 131 adapté pour être accouplé à un pivot séparé, ici un pivot de sol 132, et plus précisément pour loger au moins une partie de la longueur du pivot. Ce pivot étant positionné dans le prolongement de l'épaisseur de la plaque, et le flasque de fixation 100 s'étendant parallèlement à la plaque 4, le second flasque 130 s'étend transversalement au chant inférieur de celle-ci de manière à passer au dessous d'elle pour s'articuler au pivot.To this end, the assembly device 13 comprises a piece in bracket (shown alone in FIG. 9) comprising a flange 100 for the fixing the part to the glass plate and a flange 130 extending perpendicularly and having a hole 131 adapted to be coupled to a separate pivot, here a ground pivot 132, and more precisely to accommodate the minus part of the length of the pivot. This pivot being positioned in the extension of the thickness of the plate, and the mounting flange 100 extending parallel to the plate 4, the second flange 130 extends transversely to the lower edge thereof so as to pass to the below it to articulate to the pivot.

Afin que la plaque 4 de porte ne puisse pas pivoter dans son propre plan, le dispositif d'assemblage 13 comporte deux organes filetés 101, et naturellement la pièce en équerre présente deux trous lisses correspondants, pour le passage des organes filetés, dans deux régions d'extrémités respectives du flasque 100.So that the door plate 4 cannot pivot in its own plan, the assembly device 13 comprises two threaded members 101, and of course the square piece has two smooth holes correspondents, for the passage of threaded members, in two regions respective ends of the flange 100.

Le trou 131 pour le pivot de sol est cylindrique ou tronconique ou autre en fonction de la forme du pivot 132, si celui-ci est un pivot conventionnel fixe. Le pivot 132 peut également être un pivot tournant à rappel automatique, en saillie hors d'un boítier noyé dans l'élément de sol ; les pivots de ce type sont généralement de forme prismatique ; dans ce cas, le trou 131 présente une forme prismatique correspondante de telle sorte que la pièce en équerre ne puisse pas tourner par rapport au pivot 132. Comme, pour des raisons pratiques et des raisons d'esthétique, l'axe de pivotement du panneau de porte, c'est-à-dire l'axe du pivot 132 et du trou 131, est positionné entre les deux faces de la plaque 4 du panneau de porte, le trou 131, qui s'étend dans le prolongement de l'épaisseur de la plaque, est le plus près possible de la face du flasque 100 qui est appliquée contre le joint plat interposé entre ce flasque 100 et la plaque 4 en verre, et, de préférence, l'orifice par lequel le trou 131 débouche du flasque 130 du côté du flasque 100 affleure ce plan. Pour éviter qu'il existe, entre le bas de la plaque 4 et le sol, un espace important destiné au passage du flasque 130 dans lequel est logé le pivot 132, la plaque comporte à sa base une découpe 133 dont la hauteur est supérieure à celle du flasque 130, servant de logement à celui-ci. Cependant, comme on l'a vu, la création de découpes de formes quelconques dans une plaque en verre est difficile, et ainsi longue et onéreuse ; ainsi, selon l'invention, la plaque en verre 4 est munie d'une découpe 133 en arc de cercle, de préférence en demi-cercle ; grâce à cette caractéristique, la découpe peut être réalisée par un outil tournant autour d'un axe central, très rapidement ; il est notamment possible de réaliser une découpe circulaire dans une plaque en verre destinée à être ensuite scindée en deux, dans l'axe d'un diamètre de la découpe, pour entrer dans la constitution de deux panneaux selon l'invention, ou encore de juxtaposer deux plaques en verre et de réaliser une découpe circulaire dont un diamètre passe par la ligne de juxtaposition des deux plaques. Afin de protéger les surfaces de contact du pivot 132 et du trou 131 contre les poussières, le flasque 130 porte un cache 134 de forme extérieure hémicylindrique qui s'inscrit ainsi approximativement dans la découpe 133. Pour faciliter le centrage du cache, la face supérieure 135 du flasque 130 comporte une ou plusieurs régions présentant une surface cylindrique dont les génératrices s'étendent perpendiculairement à la plaque en verre 4, et ce sont ces régions à surface cylindrique qui supportent la paroi hémicylindrique du cache 134. Un joint (non représenté) est interposé entre le flasque 100 et la plaque en verre 4.The hole 131 for the ground pivot is cylindrical or frustoconical or other depending on the shape of the pivot 132, if this is a pivot conventional fixed. The pivot 132 can also be a pivot rotating at automatic recall, protruding from a housing embedded in the floor element; pivots of this type are generally prismatic in shape; in that case, the hole 131 has a corresponding prismatic shape so that the square part cannot rotate relative to pivot 132. Like, for practical and aesthetic reasons, the pivot axis of the door panel, i.e. the axis of the pivot 132 and the hole 131, is positioned between the two faces of plate 4 of the door panel, the hole 131, which extends in line with the thickness of the plate, is the most as close as possible to the face of the flange 100 which is applied against the flat seal interposed between this flange 100 and the glass plate 4, and preferably the orifice through which the hole 131 opens from the flange 130 on the side of the flange 100 is flush with this plan. To avoid that it exists, between the bottom of the plate 4 and the floor, a large space for the passage of the flange 130 in which is housed the pivot 132, the plate has at its base a cutout 133, the height is greater than that of the flange 130, serving as a housing therefor. However, as we have seen, the creation of cut-out shapes whatsoever in a glass plate is difficult, and so long and expensive; thus, according to the invention, the glass plate 4 is provided with a cut 133 in an arc, preferably in a semicircle; thanks to that characteristic, the cutting can be carried out by a tool turning around a central axis, very quickly; it is in particular possible to carry out a circular cut in a glass plate to be then split in two, in the axis of a diameter of the cutout, to enter the constitution of two panels according to the invention, or of juxtaposing two glass plates and make a circular cut with a diameter goes through the line of juxtaposition of the two plates. In order to protect contact surfaces of pivot 132 and hole 131 against dust, the flange 130 carries a cover 134 of semi-cylindrical external shape which fits approximately in the cutout 133. To facilitate the centering of the cover, the upper face 135 of the flange 130 has one or more several regions with a cylindrical surface including the generatrices extend perpendicular to the glass plate 4, and these are the regions with cylindrical surface which support the semi-cylindrical wall of the cover 134. A seal (not shown) is interposed between the flange 100 and the plate in glass 4.

La figure 10 montre un dispositif d'assemblage pivotant 14 comportant également des moyens d'articulation par pivotement, pour assembler à pivotement la plaque 4 du panneau de porte à la plaque 2 d'imposte et de plus assembler celle-ci à la plaque latérale 1. Ce dispositif d'assemblage est destiné à assembler la plaque 4 à la plaque 2 d'imposte et à la plaque latérale 1 de telle manière que le pivotement de la plaque 4 s'effectue autour d'un axe s'étendant parallèlement à cette plaque, positionné entre les deux faces de celle-ci.FIG. 10 shows a pivoting assembly device 14 also comprising pivoting means of articulation, for pivotally assemble the plate 4 of the door panel to the plate 2 transom and further assemble it to the side plate 1. This device assembly is intended to assemble the plate 4 to the transom plate 2 and to the side plate 1 so that the pivoting of the plate 4 takes place around an axis extending parallel to this plate, positioned between the two sides of it.

A cette fin, ce dispositif d'assemblage 14 comporte deux parties 14A, 14B fixées l'une à la plaque 4 du panneau et l'autre à la plaque 2 d'imposte et à la plaque latérale 1, ainsi qu'un pivot séparé 142 dont l'axe est positionné entre les deux faces des plaques et qui est logé au moins partiellement dans des trous respectifs alignés des deux parties 14A, 14B.To this end, this assembly device 14 has two parts 14A, 14B fixed one to plate 4 of the panel and the other to plate 2 transom and side plate 1, as well as a separate pivot 142 whose axis is positioned between the two faces of the plates and which is housed at least partially in respective aligned holes of the two parts 14A, 14B.

La partie 14A est approximativement identique au dispositif d'assemblage 13 représenté sur la figure 8, à cela près que le pivot 142 étant de forme générale cylindrique, le trou qui s'étend dans le prolongement de l'épaisseur de la plaque, qui le reçoit (correspondant au trou 131 du dispositif d'assemblage 13) est lui-même cylindrique, que la partie 14A est montée retournée bas en haut par rapport au dispositif 13 de telle sorte que le trou pour le pivot soit en haut de la partie 14A puisque l'autre partie 14B est au-dessus de celle-ci et fixée à la plaque d'imposte 2, et que le pivot étant positionné dans le prolongement de l'épaisseur de la plaque, et le flasque de fixation 100 s'étendant parallèlement à la plaque 4, le second flasque s'étend transversalement au chant supérieur de celle-ci de manière à passer au-dessus d'elle pour s'articuler au pivot ; le reste de la partie 14A est identique au dispositif d'assemblage 13, et ainsi cette partie 14A ne sera pas davantage décrite ; simplement, on notera que le cache 144A s'inscrivant dans une découpe 143A de la plaque 4 du panneau de porte repose cette fois sur une face de flasque plane qui est en regard de la partie 14B du dispositif d'assemblage 14.Part 14A is approximately identical to the device assembly 13 shown in Figure 8, except that the pivot 142 being generally cylindrical, the hole which extends in the extension of the thickness of the plate, which receives it (corresponding to hole 131 of the device assembly 13) is itself cylindrical, that part 14A is mounted turned upside down relative to the device 13 so that the hole for the pivot is at the top of part 14A since the other part 14B is above from it and fixed to the transom plate 2, and the pivot being positioned in the extension of the thickness of the plate, and the flange of attachment 100 extending parallel to plate 4, the second flange extends transversely to the upper edge of it so as to pass over it from it to articulate to the pivot; the rest of part 14A is identical to the assembly device 13, and so this part 14A will not be further described; simply note that the cache 144A is inscribed in a cutout 143A of the plate 4 of the door panel rests this times on a flat flange face which is opposite part 14B of the assembly device 14.

La partie 14B du dispositif d'assemblage 14 présente également de nombreuses similitudes avec le dispositif d'assemblage 13 à cela près que là encore le trou pour le pivot 142 est cylindrique ; cette partie 14B est fixée sur la plaque 2 d'imposte de la même manière que le dispositif d'assemblage 13 sur la plaque 4 du panneau de porte, de telle sorte que les trous des deux parties 14A et 14B destinés au pivot 142 soient alignés axialement, le second flasque de la partie supérieure 14B s'étendant transversalement au chant inférieur de la plaque d'imposte 2 de manière à passer au dessous d'elle mais au-dessus du second flasque de la partie inférieure 14A pour s'articuler au pivot.The part 14B of the assembly device 14 also has many similarities with the assembly device 13 except that that again the hole for the pivot 142 is cylindrical; this part 14B is fixed on the transom plate 2 in the same way as the device 13 on the plate 4 of the door panel, so that the holes of the two parts 14A and 14B intended for the pivot 142 are aligned axially, the second flange of the upper part 14B extending transversely to the lower edge of the transom plate 2 so as to pass below it but above the second flange of the part lower 14A to articulate to the pivot.

La partie supérieure du pivot 142 étant logée dans le trou de la partie 14B supérieure et sa partie inférieure étant logée dans le trou de la partie 14A inférieure, ce pivot comporte éventuellement une ou plusieurs portées sous la forme de collerettes, et une ou plusieurs gorges de raccordement; un cache 144B protégeant les surfaces de pivotement s'inscrit dans une découpe 143B de la plaque d'imposte.The upper part of the pivot 142 being housed in the hole of the upper part 14B and its lower part being housed in the hole of the lower part 14A, this pivot possibly includes one or more worn in the form of flanges, and one or more throats of connection; a 144B cover protecting the pivoting surfaces is part of a 143B cutout in the transom plate.

La différence principale entre la partie 14B et le dispositif d'assemblage 13 est que son flasque 100 comporte un prolongement muni de moyens de fixation à la plaque latérale 1 ; ce flasque 100 de la partie 14B présente ici une forme en équerre plate à 90° dont une branche présente des trous lisses pour les organes filetés de fixation à la plaque d'imposte 2 et dont l'autre branche, s'étendant perpendiculairement dans le même plan présente un trou lisse pour un organe fileté de fixation à la plaque latérale 1, un autre trou lisse pour un organe fileté de fixation à la plaque latérale 1 étant réalisé dans le coude de l'équerre.The main difference between part 14B and the device assembly 13 is that its flange 100 has an extension provided means for fixing to the side plate 1; this flange 100 of part 14B here has a 90 ° flat square shape, one branch of which has smooth holes for the threaded members for fixing to the transom plate 2 and of which the other branch, extending perpendicularly in the same plane has a smooth hole for a threaded member for fixing to the side plate 1, another smooth hole for a threaded member for fixing to the side plate 1 being made in the elbow of the square.

Les moyens de fixation aux plaques sont les mêmes que ceux qui sont représentés sur la figure 2 et ont été décrits en référence à cette figure (on voit sur la figure 10 les organes filetés 101 et les écrous 103). Naturellement, un joint est interposé entre chaque flasque 100 et la plaque en verre correspondante.The means of attachment to the plates are the same as those which are shown in Figure 2 and have been described with reference to this figure (we see in Figure 10 the threaded members 101 and the nuts 103). Naturally, a seal is interposed between each flange 100 and the plate in matching glass.

Les figures 11 et 12 montrent un dispositif d'assemblage amovible 16 pour assembler amoviblement, au moyen d'une serrure 161, une plaque 4 de porte et un élément de mur M.Figures 11 and 12 show a removable assembly device 16 for removably assembling, by means of a lock 161, a plate 4 door and a wall element M.

Comme les précédents (les mêmes éléments portant les mêmes références numériques), ce dispositif comporte un flasque 100 disposé en applique contre une plaque en verre . Cependant, contrairement aux formes de réalisation précédentes, le flasque 100 n'est pas appliqué sur toute sa surface contre la plaque 4, mais seulement par sa région périphérique, car il comporte intérieurement une cavité pour le logement de la serrure 161. En revanche, toujours comme dans les dispositifs précédents, un joint plat 104 est disposé contre la plaque 4, et la face du joint plat qui est opposée à celle qui est contre la plaque est sur sa région périphérique appliquée contre le flasque 100 et sur le reste de sa surface contre la serrure 161. Egalement comme les dispositifs précédents, celui-ci comporte au moins un organe fileté 101 dont la tête fraisée est logée dans la plaque 4 avec interposition d'une rondelle cuvette 102 ; cependant, cette fois l'organe fileté est une vis qui est vissée dans un trou taraudé du flasque 100 après avoir traversé un trou lisse réalisé dans la serrure 161, au lieu de porter un écrou comme précédemment.Like the previous ones (the same elements bearing the same numerical references), this device comprises a flange 100 arranged in apply against a glass plate. However, unlike the forms of previous embodiments, the flange 100 is not applied over its entire surface against plate 4, but only by its peripheral region, because it internally has a cavity for housing the lock 161. In however, still as in the previous devices, a flat seal 104 is disposed against the plate 4, and the face of the flat seal which is opposite to that which is against the plate is on its peripheral region applied against the flange 100 and on the rest of its surface against the lock 161. Also like the previous devices, this comprises at least one threaded member 101 whose countersunk head is housed in plate 4 with the interposition of a bowl washer 102; however, this time the threaded member is a screw which is screwed into a tapped hole in the flange 100 after passing through a smooth hole made in lock 161, instead of wearing a nut like previously.

La serrure, du type à pêne dormant, n'est donc pas logée dans la plaque 4 en étant pincée entre deux flasques comme c'était le cas selon la technique antérieure, et ainsi la plaque 4 n'a pas besoin de comporter une grande découpe épousant le contour de la serrure ; ainsi, selon l'invention, il est seulement nécessaire de prévoir dans la plaque 4 le passage du cylindre 162 de la serrure; à cette fin, la plaque en verre 4 comporte un trou traversant de section circulaire, facile à réaliser, dans lequel est inséré un bouchon cylindrique 163 par exemple en matière synthétique, présentant lui-même une découpe épousant la forme extérieure de la section transversale du cylindre, ici un cylindre dit « du type européen », dans laquelle est inséré le cylindre ; la présence du bouchon 163 dans le prolongement de l'épaisseur de la plaque est même inutile dans le cas d'une serrure à cylindre de section circulaire, à condition que le trou de la plaque 4 soit d'un diamètre permettant l'ajustement de ce cylindre. Dans le cas représenté sur les figures, le cylindre 162 est fixé dans la serrure au moyen d'une vis 164 dont la tête est noyée dans un chant de la serrure. Le cylindre est solidarisé au bouchon également par une vis par exemple du type « sans tête » s'étendant perpendiculairement à la direction longitudinale du cylindre, schématisée par son axe 165 sur la figure 11. La présence du bouchon entourant le cylindre et le léger jeu entre celui-ci et la plaque 4 sont dissimulés par un enjoliveur 166.The deadbolt type lock is therefore not housed in the plate 4 by being pinched between two flanges as was the case according to the prior art, and thus the plate 4 does not need to include a large cut following the outline of the lock; thus, according to the invention, it it is only necessary to provide in the plate 4 the passage of the cylinder 162 of the lock; for this purpose, the glass plate 4 has a hole cross-section of circular section, easy to make, in which is inserted a cylindrical plug 163 for example made of synthetic material, presenting itself a cut following the external shape of the cross section of the cylinder, here a so-called "European type" cylinder, into which is inserted the cylinder; the presence of the plug 163 as an extension of the thickness of the plate is even useless in the case of a cylinder lock section circular, provided that the hole in the plate 4 is of a diameter allowing adjusting this cylinder. In the case shown in the figures, the cylinder 162 is fixed in the lock by means of a screw 164 whose head is embedded in a song from the lock. The cylinder is also secured to the cap by a screw for example of the "headless" type extending perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cylinder, shown schematically by its axis 165 in FIG. 11. The presence of the plug surrounding the cylinder and the slight clearance between the latter and the plate 4 are concealed by a hubcap 166.

De manière connue, à l'élément de mur, est solidarisé un boítier 167 (figure 11) présentant un logement 168 pour le pène lorsque celui-ci est en position fermée.In known manner, to the wall element, is secured a housing 167 (Figure 11) with a housing 168 for the bolt when it is in the closed position.

Si l'élément de structure auquel le panneau de porte doit être solidarisé amoviblement n'est pas un élément de mur mais par exemple un panneau en verre tel que le panneau latéral de la figure 1 constitué à partir d'une plaque en verre telle que la plaque en verre 3 de cette figure 1, la fixation du boítier peut également être conforme à l'invention, car bien entendu, celle-ci n'est pas limitée aux formes de réalisation ci-dessus décrites et représentées, et on peut en prévoir d'autres sans sortir de son cadre.If the structural element to which the door panel is to be secured removably is not a wall element but for example a glass panel such as the side panel of Figure 1 made from of a glass plate such as the glass plate 3 of this FIG. 1, the fixing the housing can also be in accordance with the invention, because understood, this is not limited to the above embodiments described and represented, and we can foresee others without going beyond its frame.
