Description

La présente invention concerne une ferrure de verrouillage pour ouvrant coulissant de porte, fenêtre ou analogue.The present invention relates to a locking fitting for opening sliding door, window or the like.

Une ferrure de verrouillage du type ci-dessus a été décrite dans le brevet français 2761724 au nom de la demanderesse.
Les figures 1, 2, 3 annexées illustrent la ferrure de verrouillage décrite dans le brevet français ci-dessus.
A locking fitting of the above type has been described in French patent 2761724 in the name of the applicant.
Figures 1, 2, 3 attached illustrate the locking fitting described in the French patent above.

Les figures 1 à 3 ci-dessus montrent une ferrure 101 de verrouillage pour ouvrant coulissant 2 de porte, fenêtre ou analogue, comprenant un assemblage coulissant 4 mobile dans la direction longitudinale 5 d'un boítier 3 et portant un pêne, un organe de manoeuvre 7 pour actionner l'assemblage coulissant 4 depuis la paroi 17 du côté intérieur de l'ouvrant 2, et des moyens pour actionner l'assemblage coulissant 4 depuis la paroi 102 du côté extérieur de l'ouvrant 2 au moyen d'un barillet 46 de serrure entraíné par une clé 45. Cette ferrure comprend en outre une plaque d'entraínement 103 mobile dans la direction longitudinale du boítier 3 par rapport audit boítier 3 et comportant, d'une part, des moyens adaptés à coopérer avec des moyens complémentaires solidaires du barillet 46 pour permettre de déplacer ladite plaque d'entraínement 103 dans un sens 13 ou dans l'autre au moyen de la clé 45, d'autre part, sur sa face 110 tournée vers l'ensemble coulissant 4 des tétons 126 présentant un bord incliné 111 adapté à venir en prise avec une conformation complémentaire 53 de l'ensemble coulissant 4.
Ces dispositions permettent de transformer un déplacement de la plaque d'entraínement 103 suivant la direction longitudinale 5 en un déplacement de l'ensemble coulissant 4 dans une direction 15 perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale 5 vers l'intérieur dudit boítier 3.
Dans la réalisation décrite sur les figures 1 à 3, la plaque 103 est adaptée à être introduite dans la direction transversale 18 du boítier 3 entre le boítier 3 et l'organe de guidage 115. A cet effet, les parois latérales longitudinales du boítier 3 comportent des encoches 128 pour le passage des tétons 126.
Figures 1 to 3 above show a locking fitting 101 for a sliding door 2 window, window or the like, comprising a sliding assembly 4 movable in the longitudinal direction 5 of a housing 3 and carrying a bolt, an operating member 7 for actuating the sliding assembly 4 from the wall 17 on the inside of the opening 2, and means for actuating the sliding assembly 4 from the wall 102 on the outside of the opening 2 by means of a barrel 46 lock driven by a key 45. This fitting further comprises a drive plate 103 movable in the longitudinal direction of the housing 3 relative to said housing 3 and comprising, on the one hand, means adapted to cooperate with complementary means integral barrel 46 to allow to move said drive plate 103 in one direction 13 or the other by means of the key 45, on the other hand, on its face 110 facing the sliding assembly 4 of the nipples ons 126 having an inclined edge 111 adapted to engage with a complementary conformation 53 of the sliding assembly 4.
These arrangements make it possible to transform a displacement of the drive plate 103 in the longitudinal direction 5 into a displacement of the sliding assembly 4 in a direction 15 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction 5 towards the interior of said housing 3.
In the embodiment described in Figures 1 to 3, the plate 103 is adapted to be introduced in the transverse direction 18 of the housing 3 between the housing 3 and the guide member 115. For this purpose, the longitudinal side walls of the housing 3 have notches 128 for the passage of nipples 126.

Le but de la présente invention est de perfectionner la ferrure décrite dans le brevet français 2761724, notamment en facilitant le montage de la plaque d'entraínement ci-dessus par rapport à l'ensemble coulissant.
L'invention vise ainsi une ferrure de verrouillage pour ouvrant coulissant de porte, fenêtre ou analogue comprenant un assemblage coulissant mobile dans la direction longitudinale d'un boítier et portant un pêne, un organe de manoeuvre pour actionner l'assemblage coulissant depuis la paroi du côté intérieur de l'ouvrant, et des moyens pour actionner l'assemblage coulissant depuis la paroi du côté extérieur de l'ouvrant au moyen d'un barillet de serrure entraíné par une clé, comprenant une plaque d'entraínement mobile dans la direction longitudinale du boítier par rapport audit boítier et comportant, d'une part, des moyens adaptés à coopérer avec des moyens complémentaires solidaires du barillet pour permettre de déplacer ledit organe d'entraínement dans un sens ou dans l'autre au moyen de la clé, d'autre part, sur sa face tournée vers l'ensemble coulissant des tétons présentant un bord incliné adapté à venir en prise avec une conformation complémentaire de l'ensemble coulissant, pour transformer un déplacement de la plaque d'entraínement suivant la direction longitudinale en un déplacement de l'ensemble coulissant dans une direction perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale vers l'intérieur dudit boítier.
The object of the present invention is to improve the fitting described in French patent 2761724, in particular by facilitating the mounting of the above drive plate with respect to the sliding assembly.
The invention thus relates to a locking fitting for a sliding door, window or the like opening comprising a sliding assembly movable in the longitudinal direction of a housing and carrying a bolt, an operating member for actuating the sliding assembly from the wall of the inner side of the opening, and means for actuating the sliding assembly from the wall on the outer side of the opening by means of a lock cylinder driven by a key, comprising a drive plate movable in the longitudinal direction of the housing relative to said housing and comprising, on the one hand, means adapted to cooperate with complementary means integral with the barrel to allow said drive member to be moved in one direction or the other by means of the key, d on the other hand, on its face turned towards the sliding assembly of the nipples having an inclined edge adapted to engage with a complementary conformation of the sliding assembly, to transform a displacement of the drive plate in the longitudinal direction into a displacement of the sliding assembly in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction inward of said housing.

Suivant l'invention, cette ferrure est caractérisée en ce que le bord de chaque téton opposé audit bord incliné est conformé de façon que lesdits tétons de la plaque d'entraínement puissent s'engager dans lesdites conformations complémentaires de l'ensemble coulissant par déplacement de la plaque dans une direction parallèle à ladite direction perpendiculaire.According to the invention, this fitting is characterized in that the edge of each nipple opposite said inclined edge is shaped so that said nipples of the drive plate can engage in said conformations complementary to the sliding assembly by moving the plate in a direction parallel to said perpendicular direction.

Cette disposition facilite le montage de la plaque d'entraínement dans le boítier de la ferrure et supprime la nécessité de créer des encoches sur la paroi latérale du boítier, comme décrit dans le brevet français 2761724.This arrangement facilitates the mounting of the drive plate in the housing hardware and eliminates the need to create notches on the wall side of the housing, as described in French patent 2761724.

D'autres particularités et avantages de l'invention apparaítront encore dans la description ci-après. Other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent in the description below.

Aux dessins annexés donnés à titre d'exemple non limitatifs :

  • la figure 4 est une vue en élévation d'une plaque d'entraínement
  • la figure 5 est une vue de détail à échelle agrandie d'un téton de la plaque selon l'invention et de la conformation correspondante de l'ensemble coulissant de la ferrure.
In the appended drawings given by way of nonlimiting example:
  • Figure 4 is an elevational view of a drive plate
  • Figure 5 is a detail view on an enlarged scale of a stud of the plate according to the invention and the corresponding conformation of the sliding assembly of the fitting.

On voit sur les figures 3 et 4 que le bord 111a de chaque téton 126 opposé audit bord incliné 11 est conformé de façon que lesdits tétons 126 de la plaque d'entraínement 103 puissent s'engager dans lesdites conformations complémentaires 53 de l'ensemble coulissant 4 par déplacement de la plaque 103 dans une direction D parallèle à ladite direction 15.It can be seen in FIGS. 3 and 4 that the edge 111a of each opposite stud 126 said inclined edge 11 is shaped so that said pins 126 of the plate 103 can engage in said conformations 53 of the sliding assembly 4 by displacement of the plate 103 in a direction D parallel to said direction 15.

De façon plus précise, comme indiqué sur les figures 4 et 5, le bord opposé 111a de chaque téton 126 présente une partie parallèle à la direction 15 qui est raccordée par un chanfrein 111b au bord inférieur 111c de chaque téton 126 qui s'étend dans ladite direction longitudinale 5.More precisely, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the opposite edge 111a of each stud 126 has a part parallel to the direction 15 which is connected by a chamfer 111b to the lower edge 111c of each stud 126 which extends in said longitudinal direction 5.

Grâce à ce chanfrein 111b, comme montré par la figure 5, il est possible de monter la plaque d'entraínement 103, par déplacement de cette dernière dans la direction D.Thanks to this chamfer 111b, as shown in FIG. 5, it is possible to mount the drive plate 103, by moving the latter in direction D.

Cette disposition facilite considérablement le montage et supprime la nécessité de prévoir des ouvertures sur la paroi latérale du boítier 3.This arrangement considerably facilitates assembly and eliminates the need to provide openings on the side wall of the housing 3.

Bien entendu l'invention n'est pas limitée à l'exemple que l'on vient de décrire et on peut apporter à celui-ci de nombreuses modifications sans sortir du cadre de l'invention. Ainsi, le chanfrein 111b pourrait être remplacé par une découpe de forme différente, pourvu que celle-ci permette l'engagement du téton 126 dans la conformation 53 par un déplacement dans la direction D.Of course, the invention is not limited to the example which has just been described and many modifications can be made to it without going beyond the ambit of the invention. Thus, the chamfer 111b could be replaced by a cut of different shape, provided that it allows engagement of the nipple 126 in the conformation 53 by a displacement in the direction D.
