The invention also concerns the use of said pin hinge for mounting a rotating panel and the door unit comprising it.

Description

La présente invention concerne un bloc-porte comportant une paumelle réglable en hauteur.The present invention relates to a door unit comprising a hinge adjustable in height.

Les paumelles utilisées en menuiserie dans le bâtiment et dans l'industrie du meuble sont, de façon classique, constituées d'un gond associé à des moyens de fixation sur une partie fixe ou huisserie et d'une penture associée à des moyens de fixation sur un panneau mobile, par exemple une porte. Le gond et la penture sont généralement reliés en rotation par une fiche mâle de forme allongée, qui pénètre, d'une part, dans un alésage ménagé dans le gond et, d'autre part, dans un logement ménagé dans la penture.The hinges used in carpentry in the building and in the furniture industry are, conventionally, made up of a hinge associated with fixing means on a fixed part or frame and a hinge associated with fixing means on a panel mobile, for example a door. The hinge and the hinge are generally connected in rotation by an elongated male plug, which penetrates, on the one hand, into a bore made in the hinge and, on the other hand, in a housing provided in the hinge.

Il est avantageux que ces paumelles soient réglables, de façon à pouvoir modifier ou ajuster la hauteur du panneau mobile sans avoir à recourir à des travaux relativement longs tels que le démontage du panneau mobile, pour ajouter des rondelles autour de la fiche mâle, le rabotage du haut ou du bas du panneau mobile, ou la dépose ou la repose des paumelles.It is advantageous that these hinges are adjustable, so that the height of the movable panel can be changed or adjusted without having to resort to relatively long work such as dismantling of the movable panel, to add washers around the male plug, planing the top or bottom of the movable panel, or removing or rests on the hinges.

Dans ce but, on a proposé dans FR-A 2 408 024, FR-A 2 479 884 et FR-A 2 533 615 des paumelles à réglage à vis susceptibles d'être réglées, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de démonter le panneau mobile. Dans ces paumelles, l'alésage du gond est taraudé de façon à pouvoir coopérer avec une partie filetée de la fiche mâle et la fiche mâle comporte, dans une zone intermédiaire, un épaulement coopérant avec un épaulement disposé dans un logement de la penture, un moyen de vissage et dévissage étant, de préférence, disposé à l'extrémité de la fiche mâle opposée à la partie filetée ; ce moyen de vissage et dévissage est accessible par une ouverture ménagée dans le fond du logement de la penture, ce logement étant ainsi ouvert à ses deux extrémités. En agissant, par exemple à l'aide d'un outil emmanché à empreinte six pans, du type connu sous la marque commerciale "TORX" introduit par l'ouverture du logement de la penture, on peut donc visser ou dévisser la partie filetée de la fiche mâle dans l'alésage taraudé du gond, de sorte que, grâce à la coopération de l'épaulement de la fiche mâle et de l'épaulement du logement de la penture, la penture s'élève ou s'abaisse par rapport au gond. Le panneau mobile, sur lequel est fixée la penture, peut ainsi être remonté ou abaissé par rapport à l'huisserie.To this end, it has been proposed in FR-A 2 408 024, FR-A 2 479 884 and FR-A 2 533 615 of the hinges with adjustable screw adjustment to be adjusted, without the need to dismantle the panel mobile. In these hinges, the hinge bore is tapped so as to ability to cooperate with threaded part of plug and plug male has, in an intermediate zone, a cooperating shoulder with a shoulder disposed in a hinge housing, a means screwing and unscrewing being preferably arranged at the end of the male plug opposite the threaded part; this means of screwing and unscrewing is accessible through an opening in the bottom of the hinge housing, this housing thus being open to both ends. By acting, for example using a tool fitted to hexagon imprint, of the type known under the trademark "TORX" introduced by opening the hinge housing, we can therefore screw or unscrew the threaded part of the male plug into the bore threaded on the hinge, so that thanks to the cooperation of the shoulder the male plug and the shoulder of the hinge housing, the hinge rises or falls in relation to the hinge. The movable panel, on which the hinge is fixed, can thus be raised or lowered by report to the frame.

Cependant, les paumelles réglables de ce type présentent un inconvénient : le poids du panneau mobile porte entièrement sur la paumelle réglable, lorsqu'une seule paumelle de ce type est utilisée pour le montage du panneau mobile ou sur une seule de ces paumelles réglables, si plusieurs paumelles de ce type sont utilisées. Dans ces conditions, on risque, après l'opération de montage, une détérioration de l'huisserie et/ou des fixations de la paumelle chargée, telle que le panneau vienne frotter sur le sol, que les fermetures ne fonctionnent plus parce que les pènes de serrure ne peuvent plus rentrer dans les gâches, ou même, que l'on aboutisse à un arrachement de la paumelle. Ce risque est particulièrement important dans le cas des bloc-portes ; de tels bloc-portes sont constitués d'une huisserie en bois, d'une porte, le plus souvent une porte isoplane à revêtement contreplaqué, et de paumelles reliant la porte à l'huisserie : de tels bloc-portes sont, par exemple, décrits dans FR-A 2 409 366. Or, dans ces bloc-portes, d'une part, les portes isoplanes sont facilement déformables et, d'autre part, au moment du montage du bloc-porte, les paumelles peuvent subir des efforts non contrôlés.However, adjustable hinges of this type have a disadvantage: the weight of the movable panel relates entirely to the adjustable hinge, when only one hinge of this type is used for mounting the movable panel or on one of these hinges adjustable, if several hinges of this type are used. In these conditions, there is a risk, after the assembly operation, of deterioration door frame and / or loaded hinge fasteners, such as panel come to rub on the ground, that the closures do not work more because the lock bolts can no longer enter the strikes, or even, that it leads to a tearing of the hinge. This risk is particularly important in the case of door units; such door units consist of a wooden frame, a door, most often an isoplane door with plywood coating, and hinges connecting the door to the frame: such door blocks are, for example, described in FR-A 2 409 366. However, in these door units, of a on the other hand, the isoplane doors are easily deformable and, on the other hand, when mounting the door unit, the hinges may be uncontrolled efforts.

Pour éviter cet inconvénient, selon l'invention, pour la fixation d'un panneau mobile sur une huisserie, on utilise au moins une paumelle comportant un réglage compensé incluant un organe élastique, plus particulièrement un ressort, dont la force de poussée compense une partie du poids du panneau mobile de sorte que le poids du panneau mobile se répartisse entre au moins deux paumelles associées au panneau mobile. Bien entendu, il est possible d'utiliser plusieurs paumelles selon l'invention pour une même porte ; on peut avantageusement utiliser une paumelle selon l'invention en l'associant avec une paumelle réglable à vis telle que celle décrite dans FR-A-2 533 615.To avoid this drawback, according to the invention, for the fixing of a mobile panel on a frame, at least one hinge comprising a compensated adjustment including an elastic member, more particularly a spring, whose thrust force compensates part of the weight of the movable panel so that the weight of the panel mobile is distributed between at least two hinges associated with the movable panel. Of course, it is possible to use several hinges according to the invention for the same door; we can advantageously use a hinge according to the invention by associating it with an adjustable screw hinge like that described in FR-A-2 533,615.

La présente invention a donc pour objet un bloc-porte avec une paumelle pour la fixation d'un panneau mobile sur une huisserie fixe comportant, d'une part, un gond portant des moyens de fixation sur l'huisserie, dans lequel est ménagé un alésage cylindrique axial ouvert à au moins une de ses extrémités, d'autre part, une penture portant des moyens de fixation sur le panneau mobile, dans laquelle est ménagé un logement cylindrique axial ouvert à au moins une de ses extrémités, un premier épaulement étant prévu à l'intérieur dudit logement et, enfin, une fiche mâle cylindrique reliant en rotation la penture au gond, l'une des extrémités de la fiche mâle étant disposée dans l'alésage du gond et l'autre extrémité dans le logement de la penture, la fiche mâle étant susceptible de coopérer avec le premier épaulement ménagé dans le logement de la penture, caractérisée par le fait que l'alésage du gond contient un organe élastique propre à exercer sur la fiche mâle, quand il est comprimé, une force de poussée susceptible d'équilibrer le poids du panneau mobile, qui s'applique par l'intermédiaire de ladite penture sur ladite fiche mâle.The present invention therefore relates to a door block with a hinge for fixing a movable panel on a fixed frame comprising, on the one hand, a hinge carrying fixing means on the frame, in which an open axial cylindrical bore is provided at least at one of its ends, on the other hand, a hinge carrying fixing means on the movable panel, in which a axial cylindrical housing open at at least one of its ends, a first shoulder being provided inside said housing and, finally, a cylindrical plug connecting in rotation the hinge to the hinge, one the ends of the male plug being disposed in the bore of the hinge and the other end in the hinge housing, the male plug being likely to cooperate with the first shoulder formed in the hinge housing, characterized in that the bore of the hinge contains a suitable elastic member to exert on the male plug, when it is compressed, a pushing force capable of balancing the weight of the movable panel, which is applied via said hinge on said male plug.

L'organe élastique est, de préférence, un ressort, notamment hélicoïdal ; ce ressort est avantageusement disposé entre le fond de l'alésage du gond et une surface formant butée de la fiche mâle ; il peut être solidarisé de la fiche mâle par au moins un point de soudure au niveau de sa spire d'extrémité qui s'appuie sur ladite fiche mâle.The elastic member is preferably a spring, in particular helical; this spring is advantageously disposed between the bottom of the hinge bore and an abutment surface of the plug male ; it can be secured to the male plug by at least one point of welding at its end turn which rests on said plug male.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de la paumelle du bloc-porte selon l'invention, la fiche mâle comporte un épaulement, dit deuxième épaulement, susceptible de coopérer avec le premier épaulement ménagé à l'intérieur du logement de penture, ledit deuxième épaulement séparant, sur la fiche mâle, une partie médiane cylindrique, qui pénètre partiellement dans l'alésage du gond, et une tige de centrage, de diamètre plus taible, qui est disposée totalement dans le logement de la penture lorsque le premier épaulement est en appui sur le second épaulement : le diamètre de la tige de centrage est sensiblement égal, au jeu près, à celui d'une première zone du logement de penture, où elle est mise en place ; le diamètre de la partie médiane de la fiche mâle est avantageusement sensiblement égal, au jeu près, à celui du logement de penture dans une deuxième zone séparée de ladite première zone par le premier épaulement. En outre, la fiche mâle peut comporter une queue du guidage disposée du côté de sa partie médiane où ne se trouve pas la tige de centrage, cette queue de guidage étant destinée, lorsque l'organe élastique est un ressort, à guider le ressort dans l'alésage au cours de sa compression ; la queue de guidage peut être cylindrique et avoir un diamètre inférieur à celui de la partie médiane de la fiche mâle.According to a preferred embodiment of the hinge of the door unit according to the invention, the male plug has a shoulder, said second shoulder, capable of cooperating with the first shoulder formed inside the hinge housing, said second shoulder separating, on the male plug, a cylindrical middle part, which partially penetrates the hinge bore, and a rod centering, of smaller diameter, which is disposed completely in the hinge housing when the first shoulder is supported on the second shoulder: the diameter of the centering rod is substantially equal, apart from play, to that of a first zone of the hinge housing, where it is installed; the diameter of the part center of the male plug is advantageously substantially equal to the clearance close to that of the hinge housing in a second separate area of said first zone by the first shoulder. In addition, the sheet male may have a guide tail disposed on the side of its middle part where the centering rod is not, this tail guide being intended, when the elastic member is a spring, to guide the spring in the bore during its compression; tail guide may be cylindrical and have a diameter smaller than that of the middle part of the male plug.

On peut prévoir que le logement comporte une troisième zone, dont le diamètre est supérieur à celui de la deuxième zone, cette troisième zone étant définie à l'intérieur d'une jupe qui vient à recouvrement sur l'extrémité terminale adjacente du gond, quand l'organe élastique est comprimé ; de préférence, l'extrémité terminale du gond est extérieurement cylindrique et le diamètre de la troisième zone du logement est sensiblement égal, au jeu près, au diamètre extérieur de l'extrémité terminale du gond.It can be expected that the housing has a third zone, the diameter of which is greater than that of the second zone, this third zone being defined inside a skirt which comes to overlap on the adjacent terminal end of the hinge, when the elastic member is compressed; preferably the terminal end of the hinge is externally cylindrical and the diameter of the third housing area is substantially equal, apart from play, to the diameter outside the terminal end of the hinge.

L'alésage du gond peut avantageusement comporter deux zones successives, une première zone, qui reçoit la partie médiane de la fiche mâle, et une deuxième zone de diamètre plus faible, les deux zones étant séparées par un épaulement, dit troisième épaulement : le troisième épaulement peut limiter la course de la fiche mâle dans l'alésage et, par conséquent, limiter la compression de l'organe élastique ; quand l'organe élastique est un ressort hélicoïdal, le diamètre de la deuxième zone de l'alésage est supérieur au diamètre de la queue de guidage pour ménager la place du ressort entre la queue de guidage et la paroi de la deuxième zone de l'alésage.The bore of the hinge can advantageously comprise two successive zones, a first zone, which receives the middle part of the male plug, and a second area of smaller diameter, both zones being separated by a shoulder, called the third shoulder: the third shoulder can limit the stroke of the plug in the bore and therefore limit the compression of the organ elastic ; when the elastic member is a helical spring, the diameter of the second zone of the bore is greater than the diameter of the guide shank to save the place of the spring between the shank guide and the wall of the second zone of the bore.

La paumelle du bloc-porte selon l'invention fonctionne de la façon suivante. Lorsque l'on met en place le panneau mobile sur la fiche mâle, le premier épaulement ménagé dans le logement de la penture coopère avec le deuxième épaulement ménagé sur la fiche mâle et la charge enfonce la fiche mâle dans l'alésage du gond ; la fiche mâle écrase le ressort jusqu'à ce que la force exercée par le ressort équilibre le poids du panneau mobile.The hinge of the door unit according to the invention operates in the same way next. When placing the movable panel on the plug male, the first shoulder in the hinge housing cooperates with the second shoulder provided on the male plug and the load pushes the male plug into the hinge bore; the male plug crushes the spring until the force exerted by the spring balances the weight of the movable panel.

Il faut noter que, selon la présente invention, l'alésage ne comporte pas de filetage et la fiche mâle ne comporte pas de tige filetée ; le réglage compensé de la paumelle se fait donc uniquement par action du ressort. Lorsque l'on utilise pour un même panneau mobile plusieurs paumelles à réglage élastiquement compensé, les forces exercées par les ressorts permettent de répartir le poids du panneau sur l'ensemble des paumelles à réglage élastique.It should be noted that, according to the present invention, the bore does not has no thread and the male plug has no rod threaded; the compensated adjustment of the hinge is therefore only done by spring action. When using for the same panel mobile several hinges with elastically compensated adjustment, the forces exerted by the springs allow the weight of the panel on all hinges with elastic adjustment.

L'alésage du gond et le logement de la penture peuvent être borgnes. Cependant, de préférence, pour des facilités d'usinage, leur fond présente une ouverture, l'alésage et le logement étant alors ouverts à leurs deux extrémités. Dans ce cas, un élément de fermeture, tel qu'un bouchon de fermeture ou un vase de style, peuvent être vissés pour fermer le fond de l'alésage et/ou du logement.The hinge bore and the hinge housing can be one-eyed. However, preferably, for ease of machining, their bottom has an opening, the bore and the housing then being open at both ends. In this case, a closure element, such as a closure cap or a style vase, can be screwed to close the bottom of the bore and / or housing.

Lorsque l'alésage du gond et le logement de la penture sont des trous borgnes, des bouchons de fermeture, notamment décoratifs, peuvent néanmoins, de façon connue, être vissés dans des trous taraudés dans les fonds de l'alésage et du logement.When the hinge bore and the hinge housing are blind holes, closing plugs, in particular decorative plugs, can, however, in known manner, be screwed into holes tapped in the bore and housing bottoms.

Les moyens de fixation du gond et de la penture peuvent être des vis disposées perpendiculairement à l'axe du gond ou de la penture ou des plaquettes également disposées dans un plan parallèle à l'axe du gond ou de la penture et munies de trous pour leur fixation par vissage sur l'huisserie fixe ou le panneau mobile.The means of fixing the hinge and the hinge can be screws arranged perpendicular to the axis of the hinge or hinge or plates also arranged in a plane parallel to the axis of the hinge or the hinge and provided with holes for their fixing by screwing on the fixed frame or the movable panel.

Lors de l'utilisation d'au moins une paumelle à réglage compensé élastique décrite ci-dessus en association avec au moins une paumelle à réglage à vis pour le montage rotatif d'un panneau mobile sur une huisserie fixe, la paumelle à réglage à vis est avantageusement du type comportant, d'une part, un gond portant des moyens de fixation sur l'huisserie, dans lequel est ménagé un alésage cylindrique axial ouvert à au moins une de ses extrémités, d'autre part, une penture portant des moyens de fixation sur le panneau mobile, dans laquelle est ménagé un logement cylindrique axial ouvert à ses extrémités, un premier épaulement étant prévu à l'intérieur dudit logement, et, enfin, une fiche mâle cylindrique reliant en rotation la penture au gond, l'une des extrémités de la fiche mâle étant disposée dans l'alésage du gond et l'autre extrémité dans le logement de la penture, la fiche mâle étant susceptible de coopérer avec le premier épaulement ménagé dans le logement de penture, l'alésage du gond étant fileté et coopérant avec un filetage porté par une tige de la fiche mâle, la partie de la fiche mâle, qui est opposée à la tige comportant en bout un moyen de réglage accessible de l'extérieur par une extrémité du logement. Quand on associe une paumelle à réglage compensé élastique et une paumelle à réglage à vis telles que ci-dessus définies, la présence d'une paumelle à réglage à vis permet de régler la hauteur du panneau mobile par rapport à l'huisserie et la présence de la paumelle à réglage compensé élastique permet de répartir la charge du panneau mobile sur les deux paumelles ; il suffit que la fiche mâle filetée ne soit pas trop basse, ce qui ferait porter tout le poids sur la paumelle à réglage compensé élastique, ni trop haute, ce qui déchargerait totalement le ressort de la paumelle à réglage élastique et ferait donc porter tout le poids du panneau sur la paumelle à réglage à vis. Bien entendu, s'il y a plusieurs paumelles à réglage compensé élastique, la répartition de charge s'effectue sur l'ensemble.When using at least one hinge with elastic compensated adjustment described above in combination with at least one hinge with screw adjustment for rotary mounting of a mobile panel on a fixed frame, the hinge with screw adjustment is advantageously of the type comprising, on the one hand, a hinge carrying fixing means on the frame, in which an open axial cylindrical bore is provided at least at one of its ends, on the other hand, a hinge carrying fixing means on the movable panel, in which a axial cylindrical housing open at its ends, a first shoulder being provided inside said housing, and, finally, a plug cylindrical male connecting in rotation the hinge to the hinge, one of the ends of the male plug being disposed in the bore of the hinge and the other end in the hinge housing, the male plug being likely to cooperate with the first shoulder formed in the hinge housing, the bore of the hinge being threaded and cooperating with a thread carried by a rod of the male plug, the part of the male plug, which is opposite to the rod comprising at the end an adjusting means accessible from the outside by one end of the housing. When we combines a hinge with elastic compensated adjustment and a hinge with screw adjustment as defined above, the presence of a hinge screw adjustment adjusts the height of the movable panel by compared to the door frame and the presence of the compensated adjustment hinge elastic to distribute the load of the movable panel on the two hinges; it is sufficient that the threaded male plug is not too low, this which would put all the weight on the compensated adjustment hinge elastic, neither too high, which would completely discharge the spring from the hinge with elastic adjustment and would therefore carry the full weight of the panel on the hinge with screw adjustment. Of course, if there are several hinges with elastic compensated adjustment, load distribution takes place on the whole.

Le bloc-porte selon la présente invention est constitué par un assemblage comportant une huisserie fixe, un panneau mobile et au moins deux paumelles reliant en rotation l'huisserie et le panneau mobile caractérisé par le fait qu'au moins une des paumelles est une paumelle à réglage compensé élastique.The door unit according to the present invention is consisting of an assembly comprising a fixed frame, a panel mobile and at least two hinges rotatingly connecting the frame and the movable panel characterized in that at least one of the hinges is an elastic compensated adjustment hinge.

Dans un mode préféré de réalisation d'un tel bloc-porte, au moins une autre paumelle est une paumelle à réglage à vis telle que ci-dessus définie et telle que décrite dans FR-A-2 533 615. La structure d'un tel bloc-porte est avantageusement celle définie dans FR-A-2 409 365 ou 2 409 366 : l'huisserie est constituée de trois éléments, à savoir deux montants et une traverse de même section droite ; chacun des trois éléments de l'huisserie est constitué de trois pièces assemblées, la première de ces pièces constituant une entretoise disposée entre les deux autres pièces, lesquelles comportent, chacune, une face plane pourvue d'une rainure dans laquelle est insérée un élément de l'entretoise.In a preferred embodiment of such a door unit, at minus one other hinge is a hinge with screw adjustment as above defined and as described in FR-A-2 533 615. The structure such a door unit is advantageously that defined in FR-A-2 409 365 or 2 409 366: the frame is made up of three elements, know two uprights and a crosspiece of the same cross section; each of the three elements of the frame consists of three parts assembled, the first of these parts constituting a spacer disposed between the two other parts, which each have a flat face provided with a groove in which is inserted a spacer element.

Dans une première variante, l'entretoise a une section droite en T pour présenter une âme et une barre transversale, dont les extrémités constituent des languettes mises en place dans les rainures des deux autres pièces, l'ensemble étant assemblé par collage. Dans une seconde variante, permettant d'assembler l'huisserie sur des cloisons d'épaisseurs diverses, l'entretoise est une languette dont on choisit la largeur en fonction de l'épaisseur de la cloison, les deux autres pièces étant serrées de part et d'autre de la cloison et de l'entretoise grâce à des vis.In a first variant, the spacer has a section straight in T to present a core and a transverse bar, whose ends constitute tabs placed in the grooves of the other two parts, the assembly being assembled by gluing. In a second variant, allowing the frame to be assembled on partitions of various thicknesses, the spacer is a tongue which choose the width according to the thickness of the partition, both other parts being tightened on both sides of the partition and the spacer using screws.

Sur la figure 1, un a représenté une paumelle à réglage à vis désignée, dans son ensemble, par la référence 1. Cette paumelle est constituée par une penture 2 et un gond 3 reliés entre eux en rotation par une fiche mâle 4.In Figure 1, one shows a hinge with adjustment to screw designated, as a whole, by the reference 1. This hinge is constituted by a hinge 2 and a hinge 3 linked together in rotation by a male plug 4.

La penture 2 est constituée par un corps de forme générale cylindrique 5 muni d'une jupe 6 ; sur ce corps est fixée, perpendiculairement à l'axe, une tige filetée 7 destinée à être vissée dans un trou d'une huisserie fixe, sur laquelle on doit monter à rotation un panneau mobile. Dans la penture 2 est ménagé un logement 8. Le logement 8 est ouvert à ses deux extrémités ; il comporte trois zones cylindriques : une zone de plus faible diamètre 9, une zone de diamètre intermédiaire 10, et une zone de plus grand diamètre 11 correspondant à la jupe 6. Les zones 9 et 10 définissent entre elles un épaulement 12. Hinge 2 is made up of a body of general shape cylindrical 5 provided with a skirt 6; on this body is fixed, perpendicular to the axis, a threaded rod 7 intended to be screwed in a hole of a fixed frame, on which one must mount with rotation a movable panel. In the hinge 2 is provided a housing 8. The housing 8 is open at both ends; it has three zones cylindrical: a smaller diameter area 9, a diameter area intermediate 10, and a corresponding larger diameter area 11 to the skirt 6. The zones 9 and 10 define between them a shoulder 12.

La fiche mâle 4 est constituée de deux tiges 13 et 14 séparées par une partie cylindrique intermédiaire 15 de plus grand diamètre que les tiges 13 et 14. La tige 13 est lisse et a un diamètre externe égal, au jeu nécessaire près, au diamètre de la zone cylindrique 9 du logement 8 ; elle se termine par une surface munie d'une empreinte creuse à six pans 16. La partie médiane cylindrique 15 a un diamètre égal, au jeu nécessaire près, à celui de la zone 10 du logement 8. La partie cylindrique intermédiaire 15 et la tige 13 définissent entre elles un épaulement 17. La tige 14 est filetée.The male plug 4 consists of two rods 13 and 14 separated by a larger intermediate cylindrical portion 15 diameter as rods 13 and 14. Rod 13 is smooth and has a diameter external equal, to the required clearance, to the diameter of the cylindrical zone 9 of housing 8; it ends with a surface provided with a hexagonal hollow impression 16. The cylindrical middle part 15 has a diameter equal, to the required clearance, to that of zone 10 of the housing 8. The intermediate cylindrical part 15 and the rod 13 define between they a shoulder 17. The rod 14 is threaded.

Le gond 3 est constitué d'un corps de forme générale cylindrique que traverse un alésage 20. Cet alésage 20 est divisé en deux zones de diamètres différents 21 et 22. La zone de plus grand diamètre 21 est située du côté tourné vers la penture 2 ; son diamètre est égal, au jeu nécessaire près, au diamètre de la partie médiane 15 de la fiche mâle 4, de façon que ladite partie médiane 15 puisse coulisser librement dans la zone 21 de l'alésage. La zone 22 a un plus petit diamètre et elle est taraudée, le diamètre de la zone 22 et le taraudage étant tels que l'on puisse visser la tige filetée 14 dans la zone 22 de l'alésage. Les zones 21 et 22 de l'alésage définissent entre elles une surface de butée 23, qui limite la course de la partie médiane 15 et, par conséquent, celle de la tige filetée 14 et celle de la fiche mâle 4. Au niveau de la zone 22 et à proximité de la surface (le butée 23, on a pratiqué dans la paroi latérale du gond 3, un alésage radial fileté, qui débouche dans la zone 22 ; dans cet alésage, on a prévu une vis-pointeau 40 constituée d'une partie filetée et d'une tête, la partie filetée pouvant se visser dans l'alésage fileté pour venir bloquer la rotation de la fiche mâle 4 par rapport au filetage de la zone 22. La tête de cette vis-pointeau 40 comporte une empreinte creuse à six pans et peut donc être manoeuvrée en vue du blocage de la fiche mâle 4 après réglage, grâce à l'utilisation d'un outil adapté. Sur le corps du gond 3, est fixée perpendiculairement à l'axe, une tige filetée 24 destinée à être vissée dans un trou du panneau mobile, qui doit être monté à rotation sur l'huisserie fixe.The hinge 3 consists of a body of general shape cylindrical through which a bore 20. This bore 20 is divided into two zones of different diameters 21 and 22. The larger zone diameter 21 is located on the side facing the hinge 2; its diameter is equal to the required clearance, the diameter of the middle part 15 of the male plug 4, so that said middle part 15 can slide freely in zone 21 of the bore. Zone 22 has a smaller diameter and it is tapped, the diameter of zone 22 and the tapping being such that the threaded rod 14 can be screwed into the zone 22 of the bore. Zones 21 and 22 of the bore define between them a abutment surface 23, which limits the stroke of the middle part 15 and, by Consequently, that of the threaded rod 14 and that of the male plug 4. Au level of zone 22 and close to the surface (the stop 23, we have made in the side wall of hinge 3, a threaded radial bore, which leads into zone 22; in this bore, a needle screw is provided 40 consisting of a threaded part and a head, the threaded part can be screwed into the threaded bore to block the rotation of the male plug 4 with respect to the thread of zone 22. The head of this needle screw 40 has a hexagonal hollow impression and can therefore be operated in order to block the male plug 4 after adjustment, through the use of a suitable tool. On the body of the hinge 3, is fixed perpendicular to the axis, a threaded rod 24 intended to be screwed in a hole in the movable panel, which must be rotatably mounted on the fixed door frame.

Pour régler la paumelle 1 en hauteur, lorsque celle-ci est fixée, on dévisse le vase de style 28 mis en place pour boucher l'extrémité du logement, de façon à pouvoir atteindre la fente 16 située à l'extrémité de la tige 13 de la fiche mâle 4. A l'aide d'un outil à six pans approprié, on agit sur l'empreinte 16, de façon à faire tourner la fiche mâle dans un sens ou dans l'autre après avoir débloqué la vis-pointeau 40. On visse ou dévisse ainsi la tige filetée dans la zone taraudée 22 de l'alésage. L'épaulement 12 du logement 8 coopère avec l'épaulement 17 de la fiche mâle 4 et la penture 2 s'écarte ou se rapproche du gond 3. On abaisse ou remonte ainsi le panneau mobile par rapport à l'huisserie fixe et on bloque la position choisie pour la fiche mâle 4 en vissant la vis-pointeau 40.To adjust the hinge 1 in height, when it is fixed, we unscrew the style 28 vase set up to stop the end of the housing, so that it can reach the slot 16 located at the end of the rod 13 of the male plug 4. Using a six-sided tool appropriate sides, we act on the impression 16, so as to rotate the male plug in one direction or the other after having unlocked the needle screw 40. The threaded rod is screwed or unscrewed in the area threaded 22 of the bore. The shoulder 12 of the housing 8 cooperates with the shoulder 17 of the plug 4 and the hinge 2 moves apart or brings the hinge closer together 3. The movable panel is lowered or raised relative to the fixed frame and the position chosen for the male plug 4 by screwing the needle screw 40.

La figure 2 représente un premier mode de réalisation de la paumelle à réglage élastique pour un bloc-porte selon la présente invention.FIG. 2 represents a first embodiment of the hinge with elastic adjustment for a door unit according to the present invention.

Selon ce mode de réalisation, la paumelle est identique extérieurement à la paumelle à réglage à vis représentée sur la figure 1, ce qui permet de les utiliser, sans problème d'esthétique, sur un même ensemble huisserie fixe-panneau mobile. La paumelle représentée sur la figure 2 est désignée dans son ensemble par la référence 101. La paumelle 101 est constituée par une penture 102 et un gond 103 reliés entre eux en rotation par une fiche mâle 104.According to this embodiment, the hinge is identical externally to the screw adjustment hinge shown in FIG. 1, which allows them to be used, without aesthetic problems, on the same fixed frame and movable panel assembly. The hinge shown on the Figure 2 is designated as a whole by the reference 101. The hinge 101 consists of a hinge 102 and a hinge 103 connected between them in rotation by a male plug 104.

La penture 102 a la même forme que la penture 2 de la paumelle 1 : elle comporte un corps 105 sur lequel est fixée, perpendiculairement à son axe, une tige filetée 107 et porte, à sa base, une jupe 106. Le corps 105 est traversé par un logement cylindrique axial 108, qui est ouvert à ses deux extrémités et présente un premier épaulement interne 112. Le logement 108 présente trois zones successives : une première zone est située au delà de l'épaulement 112, quand on s'éloigne du gond ; une deuxième zone est adjacente à l'épaulement 112 et a un diamètre supérieur à la première ; une troisième zone, de diamètre supérieur à la seconde, est séparée de la deuxième zone par un épaulement et est délimitée par la paroi d'une jupe 106. Le diamètre de la troisième zone permet à la jupe 106 de venir recouvrir la bordure terminale cylindrique du gond 103.Hinge 102 has the same shape as hinge 2 of the hinge 1: it comprises a body 105 on which is fixed, perpendicular to its axis, a threaded rod 107 and carries, at its base, a skirt 106. The body 105 is crossed by a cylindrical housing axial 108, which is open at both ends and has a first internal shoulder 112. The housing 108 has three zones successive: a first zone is located beyond the shoulder 112, when one moves away from the hinge; a second area is adjacent to the shoulder 112 and has a diameter greater than the first; a third zone, with a diameter greater than the second, is separated from the second zone by a shoulder and is delimited by the wall of a skirt 106. The diameter of the third zone allows the skirt 106 to cover the cylindrical end edge of hinge 103.

La fiche mâle 104 est constituée d'une partie cylindrique médiane 115, qui sépare une tige de centrage 114 et une queue de guidage 113, toutes deux cylindriques ; la partie médiane 115 définit avec la tige de centrage 114 un deuxième épaulement 117 et avec la queue de guidage 113 une surface de butée 118. Le diamètre de la tige de centrage 114 est égal, au jeu près, à celui de la première zone du logement 108 et celui de la partie médiane 115 est égal, au jeu près, à celui de la deuxième zone du logement 108.The male plug 104 consists of a cylindrical part median 115, which separates a centering rod 114 and a tail guide 113, both cylindrical; the middle part 115 defines with the centering rod 114 a second shoulder 117 and with the guide rod 113 a stop surface 118. The diameter of the rod of centering 114 is equal, apart from play, to that of the first zone of the housing 108 and that of the middle part 115 is equal, apart from play, to that of the second zone of housing 108.

Le gond 103 est constitué par un corps cylindrique 119 sur lequel est fixée radialement une tige filetée 124 et qui est traversé par un alésage 120 divisé en deux zones de diamètres différents 122 et 123, séparées l'une de l'autre par un troisième épaulement 121 : ce troisième épaulement 121 constitue une limitation de course pour la partie médiane 115 de la fiche mâle 104. Un ressort 130 est disposé dans l'alésage 120 autour de la queue de guidage 113 entre la surface de butée 118 de la fiche mâle 104 et le fond de l'alésage ; le ressort 130 est logé dans l'anneau cylindrique subsistant entre la queue de guidage 113 et la paroi de l'alésage 120 ; sa spire d'extrémité est conformée pour être sensiblement plate et est soudée, par trois points, sur la surface de butée 118. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, un vase de style 129 est vissé sur l'extrémité tournée vers l'extérieur de l'alésage 120 ; le fond de l'alésage, sur lequel s'appuie le ressort 130, est constitué par une surface 131 de ce vase de style 129. Le logement 108 est également fermé à son extrémité tournée vers l'extérieur par un i vase de style 128 identique au vase de style 129.The hinge 103 is constituted by a cylindrical body 119 on which is radially fixed a threaded rod 124 and which is crossed by a bore 120 divided into two zones of different diameters 122 and 123, separated from each other by a third shoulder 121: this third shoulder 121 constitutes a stroke limitation for the middle part 115 of plug 104. A spring 130 is arranged in bore 120 around guide tail 113 between surface stop 118 of the male plug 104 and the bottom of the bore; the spring 130 is housed in the cylindrical ring remaining between the tail of guide 113 and the wall of the bore 120; its end turn is shaped to be substantially flat and is welded, by three points, on the abutment surface 118. In the embodiment shown, a style vase 129 is screwed on the outward facing end of bore 120; the bottom of the bore, on which the spring 130 rests, consists of a surface 131 of this style vase 129. The housing 108 is also closed at its end facing outwards by a i style 128 vase identical to style 129 vase.

La paumelle 101 fonctionne de la façon suivante. Lorsque le poids du panneau mobile s'exerce sur la penture 102, le ressort 130 exerce une poussée sur la fiche mâle 104 par l'intermédiaire de la surface formant butée 118 et tend à faire sortir la fiche mâle de l'alésage 120 du gond 103. L'épaulement 117 de la fiche mâle 104 coopère avec l'épaulement 112 de la penture 102. La penture 102 s'écarte donc du gond 103 et a tendance à faire remonter le panneau mobile jusqu'à ce que la force exercée par le panneau mobile sur l'épaulement 117 de la fiche mâle par l'iniennédiaire de l'épaulement 112 de la penture 102 soit en équilibre avec la force exercée par le ressort 130 sur la fiche mâle 104 par l'intermédiaire de la surface de butée 118.The hinge 101 operates as follows. When the weight of the movable panel is exerted on the hinge 102, the spring 130 pushes the male plug 104 through the surface forming a stop 118 and tends to push the male plug out of the bore 120 of the hinge 103. The shoulder 117 of the male plug 104 cooperates with the shoulder 112 of the hinge 102. The hinge 102 therefore deviates from hinge 103 and tends to raise the panel mobile until the force exerted by the mobile panel on the shoulder 117 of the male plug via the shoulder 112 of the hinge 102 is in balance with the force exerted by the spring 130 on the male plug 104 through the surface of stop 118.

La figure 3 représente un autre mode de réalisation d'une paumelle pour un bloc-porte selon l'invention qui est désigné, dans son ensemble, par la référence 201. Dans ce mode de réalisation, la penture 202, le gond 203 et la fiche mâle 204 sont sensiblement identiques à ceux représentés sur la figure 2 ; en conséquence, tous les éléments correspondants ont été désignés par les mêmes références que pour la figure 2, augmentées de 100. La seule différence est que, d'une part, les tiges filetées 124 et 107 de fixation à l'huisserie fixe et au panneau mobile, respectivement, sont remplacées par des plaques 224 et 207 parallèles à l'axe du gond et de la penture, ces plaques étant munies de trous 232, qui permettent de visser la paumelle sur l'huisserie fixe et sur le panneau mobile, et que, d'autre part, les vases de style 128 et 129 représentés sur la figure 2 sont remplacés par de simples couvercles de graissage 228 et 229. Il est clair que l'amovibilité des vases de style 128, 129 ou des couvercles 228, 229 permet un graissage aisé de la paumelle.Figure 3 shows another embodiment of a hinge for a door unit according to the invention which is designated, as a whole, by the reference 201. In this embodiment, the hinge 202, the hinge 203 and the male plug 204 are substantially identical to those shown in Figure 2; as a result, all of the elements correspondents have been designated by the same references as for the figure 2, increased by 100. The only difference is that, on the one hand, threaded rods 124 and 107 for fixing to the fixed frame and to the panel mobile, respectively, are replaced by plates 224 and 207 parallel to the axis of the hinge and the hinge, these plates being provided with holes 232, which allow the hinge to be screwed onto the fixed frame and on the movable panel, and that, on the other hand, the 128 style vases and 129 shown in Figure 2 are replaced by simple grease covers 228 and 229. It is clear that the removability of style vases 128, 129 or lids 228, 229 allows lubrication easy from the hinge.

Le fonctionnement de la paumelle 201 est identique à celui de la paumelle 101.The operation of the hinge 201 is identical to that of hinge 101.

Pour la fixation en rotation d'un panneau mobile sur une huisserie fixe, on utilise avantageusement une paumelle 1 à réglage à vis, selon la figure 1 et plusieurs paumelles à réglage élastique, telles que représentées sur les figures 2 ou 3. La paumelle à réglage à vis est, de préférence, fixée au milieu du panneau, les paumelles selon l'invention étant disposées à intervalles réguliers à des niveaux inférieur et supérieur. De cette façon, on évite que le poids du panneau porte uniquement sur la paumelle à vis de la figure 1, l'action des ressorts à l'intérieur des paumelles selon l'invention permettant de répartir le poids du panneau mobile sur toutes les paumelles.For the rotational fixing of a mobile panel on a fixed frame, advantageously use a hinge 1 with adjustment to screw, according to FIG. 1 and several hinges with elastic adjustment, such as as shown in Figures 2 or 3. The hinge with screw adjustment is, preferably fixed in the middle of the panel, the hinges according to the invention being arranged at regular intervals at levels lower and upper. In this way, we avoid that the weight of the panel relates only to the screw hinge of Figure 1, the action of springs inside the hinges according to the invention making it possible to distribute the weight of the movable panel over all the hinges.

La figure 4 représente un bloc-porte dont l'huisserie est constituée par deux montants verticaux 301, 302 et une traverse 303, horizontale reliant les deux montants. Cette huisserie coopère avec une porte 304 qui est supportée sur le montant 302 par l'intermédiaire de trois paumelles 305, 306 dont l'une 305 est une paumelle selon la figure 1 et les deux autres 306 des paumelles selon la figure 3. La figure 5 représente une coupe horizontale d'un montant de l'huisserie pour une première variante de réalisation de ce bloc-porte alors que la figure 6 représente une coupe analogue pour une deuxième variante.Figure 4 shows a door unit whose frame is consisting of two vertical uprights 301, 302 and a crosspiece 303, horizontal connecting the two uprights. This frame cooperates with a door 304 which is supported on the upright 302 by means of three hinges 305, 306 one of which 305 is a hinge according to the Figure 1 and the other two 306 hinges according to Figure 3. The Figure 5 shows a horizontal section of a frame amount for a first variant of this door unit while the Figure 6 shows a similar section for a second variant.

En se référant à la figure 5, on voit que chaque montant 301, 302 ainsi que la traverse 303 de l'huisserie de la figure 4 est formé de deux éléments ; la figure 5 ne représente que la constitution du montant 301 formé de deux éléments de montant 301a et 301b. Les éléments de montant 301a, 301b sont identiques et disposés symétriquement par rapport au plan vertical médian du bloc-porte.Referring to FIG. 5, it can be seen that each upright 301, 302 as well as the cross-member 303 of the frame of FIG. 4 is formed of two elements; Figure 5 shows only the constitution of the amount 301 formed of two amount elements 301 a and 301 b . The upright elements 301 a , 301 b are identical and arranged symmetrically with respect to the median vertical plane of the door unit.

L'élément de traverse 301a comporte deux faces parallèles 310a et 311a. Le côté tourné vers l'intérieur de l'huisserie, qui relie les deux faces parallèles 310a et 311a, comporte une feuillure 312 qui ménage un épaulement 313 dans l'épaisseur duquel est pratiquée, du côté opposé à la feuillure 312, une rainure 314. La feuillure 312 est destinée à recevoir la porte 391, qui est représentée en traits mixtes sur la figure 5. L'autre côté de l'élément de montant reliant les faces parallèles 310a et 311a, qui est adjacent à la cloison 390, est pourvu d'une feuillure 315 dont le bord raccordé aux faces 311a, 311b est muni d'une gorge 316. La face 310a est percée, à intervalles réguliers, de trous 317 destinés à être traversés par des vis 318 pour l'assemblage des deux éléments de montant 301a et 301b.The cross member 301 a has two parallel faces 310 a and 311 a . The side facing the interior of the frame, which connects the two parallel faces 310 a and 311 a , has a rebate 312 which provides a shoulder 313 in the thickness of which is formed, on the side opposite to the rebate 312, a groove 314. The rebate 312 is intended to receive the door 391, which is shown in phantom in Figure 5. The other side of the upright element connecting the parallel faces 310 a and 311 a , which is adjacent to the partition 390, is provided with a rebate 315, the edge of which is connected to the faces 311 a , 311 b is provided with a groove 316. The face 310 a is pierced, at regular intervals, with holes 317 intended to be crossed by screws 318 for the assembly of the two upright elements 301 a and 301 b .

L'élément 301b comporte également deux faces parallèles 310b et 311b, la face 311b de l'élément 301b étant destinée à être disposée en vis-à-vis de la face 311a de l'élément 301a après assemblage. La face 311b comporte des trous disposés après assemblage en vis-à-vis des trous 317 de l'élément de montant 301a de façon à être susceptible de recevoir les extrémités filetées des vis 318. Le côté de l'élément 301b, qui relie les faces parallèles 310a et 311b et qui est adjacent à la cloison 390, comporte une gorge et une feuillure de sections respectivement identiques à la gorge 316 et à la feuillure 315 de l'élément de montant 301a, cette gorge et cette feuillure étant symétriques respectivement de la gorge 316 et de la feuillure 315 par rapport au plan de joint des deux éléments 301a et 301b. Le côté de l'élément 301b, qui est tourné vers l'intérieur de l'huisserie et qui relie les faces 310b et 311b, est pourvu d'un profilage décoratif 322 et d'une rainure 323 complémentaire de la rainure 314 de l'élément 301a.The element 301 b also has two parallel faces 310 b and 311 b , the face 311 b of the element 301 b being intended to be arranged opposite the face 311 a of the element 301 a after assembly. . The face 311 b has holes arranged after assembly opposite the holes 317 of the upright element 301 a so as to be capable of receiving the threaded ends of the screws 318. The side of the element 301 b , which connects the parallel faces 310 a and 311 b and which is adjacent to the partition 390, has a groove and a rebate of sections respectively identical to the groove 316 and to the rebate 315 of the upright element 301 a , this groove and this rebate being symmetrical respectively of the groove 316 and the rebate 315 with respect to the joint plane of the two elements 301 a and 301 b . The side of the element 301 b , which faces the interior of the frame and which connects the faces 310 b and 311 b , is provided with a decorative profiling 322 and a groove 323 complementary to the groove 314 of element 301 a .

Les rainures 323 et 314 reçoivent, lors de l'assemblage, une languette 324 qui masque le plan de joint.The grooves 323 and 314 receive, during assembly, a tongue 324 which masks the parting line.

Ce type d'huisserie peut être utilisé, en particulier, pour des cloisons d'épaisseur supérieure à 50 mm. Il est également indiqué pour des travaux de rénovation où l'on se trouve en présence de cloisons, ou de murs, d'épaisseurs très diverses. Dans ce cas, il suffit de prévoir des languettes 324 de largeur appropriée afin de cacher le plan de joint, les feuillures 312 et 322 portant contre le nu fini de la cloison ou du mur considéré, et les vis 318 ayant, bien entendu, une longueur adaptée.This type of frame can be used, in particular, for partitions thicker than 50 mm. It is also indicated for renovations where you are in the presence of partitions, or walls, of very different thicknesses. In this case, it suffices to provide tabs 324 of appropriate width in order to hide the parting line, the rebates 312 and 322 bearing against the finished bare part of the partition or wall considered, and the screws 318 having, of course, a suitable length.
