Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an improved protection and safety device for automatic sliding gates.
  • Automatic gates for accessing private property are usually actuated by the users, from fixed posts, through opening or closing buttons or keys or by means of remote controls, which send a radio impulse to an electronic exchange, which takes care of actuating the gate in the desired direction.
  • the subsequent reclosing of the same gate takes place through sending a new command from the user or else it takes place automatically after a predetermined period of time.
  • Such ribs are positioned in correspondence with the most dangerous edges, they are made out of deformable material and they transmit, by means of pressure switches, an electrical signal to a contact of an electronic transmitter, each time the pressure inside them varies, for example in the case of accidental contacts and collisions caused by vehicles as they pass through.
  • the electronic transmitter immediately sends an impulse to a receiver, which can be activated through radio contact, which is displaced near to a fixed point and which immediately takes care of interrupting the electrical power supply to the system; consequently, if the gate is in movement, it instantly locks in the position reached.
  • ribs of the pneumatic type As an alternative to ribs of the pneumatic type, ribs also made out of deformable material, which contain inside of them a rigid steel thin cable which connects, by means of lever members, a contact of an electronic transmitter, each time the tension of the thin cable increases by a predetermined value.
  • the electronic transmitter immediately sends an impulse to a receiver, which can be activated through radio contact, which is displaced near to a fixed point and which immediately takes care of interrupting the power supply to the system.
  • the protection rib is mounted, through the application of a shaped aluminium profile, onto the front advancing surface of the gate itself.
  • a free space is left at the bottom of the profile so as to be able to fix it to the structure of the gate.
  • Such a space which is usually about 3-5 centimetres from the ground, has no deformable material, of which the protection ribs consist and, therefore, represents a serious danger to the user, especially if it is a child, at any time and, in particular, as the automatic gate is being moved.
  • the upper end of the profile also usually has a free space, so as to be able to fix it to the structure of the gate.
  • Such a space is generally also used to contain the lever members and the switches of a power shut-off mechanism.
  • the purpose of the present invention is therefore that of avoiding the aforementioned drawbacks and in particular that of realising an improved protection and safety device for automatic sliding gates which allows a fast and safe intervention for every type of collision with an obstacle or malfunction thereof.
  • Another purpose of the present invention is that of realising an improved protection and safety device for automatic sliding gates, the operation of which is, in all situations, reliable, precise and correct, even in the case of accidental failures or malfunctions of the electrical control apparatus.
  • a further purpose of the present invention is that of realising an improved protection and safety device for automatic sliding gates which is particularly simple, with relatively low manufacturing costs, in virtue of the advantages gained.
  • the protection and safety device, object of the present invention can also be used for automatic gates of a different type, for example tilting doors or double panel doors.
  • a protection rib for automatic sliding gates comprising a shaped profile 12, suitable for being fixed onto a front advancing surface of the gate and a respective protection 14, substantially shaped as a triangular prism and made out of rubber, plastic or in any case out of deformable material, which is annexed to the profile 12.
  • the profile 12 of the rib 10 is usually mounted on the front of the advancing surface of the automatic sliding gate.
  • the protection 14 reaches a predetermined level of the rib 10 and, in particular, as shown clearly in figure 1 , is inserted into a terminal 16, which is typically 3-5 centimetres off the ground, such as to leave a predetermined space, in which the profile 12 remains in view to be able to carry out the mounting thereof onto the surface of the gate, through an attachment screw 18 to be inserted into a through-hole.
  • a steel cable 22 slides, connected to a per se known intervention mechanism for interrupting the power supply to an actuation device of the sliding gate, in the case of collisions of a user against the rib 10.
  • a protective shell 30 is foreseen, preferably made out of rubber, plastic or another deformable material, which encloses inside of it a substantially L-shaped lever member 32 mounted, through the pin 34, in the support 36; the shell 30 is fixed to the lever member 32 through a screw 35.
  • a terminal part or end 23 of the cable 22 is housed in an end attachment 40 of the "L" of the lever member 32, which is opposite the pin 34.
  • the power supply to the actuation motor for the sliding gate is immediately switched off, by means of the power shut-off mechanism, so as to automatically stop it from moving, either open or closed, and to thus avoid worse problems.
  • lever member 32 In order to obtain a rapid and effective intervention, it is advantageous to arrange the lever member 32 at an angle, with respect to an imaginary vertical axis, which follows the longitudinal progression of the rib 10.
  • FIGS 3 , 4 and 5 illustrate a first possible practical embodiment of the invention, where the components which are the same as and/or equivalent to those illustrated in figures 1 and 2 have the same reference numbers increased by 100.
  • the protection and safety device is arranged at the top of the rib 110.
  • the intervention mechanism for shutting off the power supply to an actuation device of the sliding gate can be seen in figure 3 , and comprises a substantially L-shaped main lever 150 mounted on a fixed fulcrum 134, connected to a support 136, fixed at the top to the profile 112.
  • the fulcrum 134 is in a central position of the main lever 150, which carries at one end 152 the termination 123 of the cable 122.
  • An opposite end 154 of the lever 150 has a flat surface 156, and a spring 158 for countering the support 136.
  • the flat surface 156 is in contact with a tab 160, which is part of a microswitch or "micro” 159, which is suitable for actuating a button 161 of the "micro” 159 itself.
  • the end 152 of the main lever 150 is pulled towards the bottom, by means of the cable 122 ensuring that simultaneously the flat surface 156 acts upon the tab 160, which in turn actuates the micro 159.
  • the intervention of the micro 159 interrupts the power supply to the actuation device of the sliding gate.
  • the spring 158 forces the main lever 150 in a standing position, in conditions of normal working of the sliding gate.
  • the protection and safety device of the rib 110 essentially consists of the substantially L-shaped lever member 132 mounted inside the main lever 150 through the fixed fulcrum 134; at an opposite end, the lever member 132 carries a mobile pin or fulcrum 135, integral with the shell 130.
  • the present mechanism which can be associated with the aforementioned device inside of the protection rib itself, in order to protect upper portions thereof, operates as follows: when a collision takes place against the shell 130, the pin 135 is displaced integral with the shell 130 itself. actuating a displacement of the lever member 132, so that it presses against the tab 160, in turn responsible for the actuation of the button 161 and consequently of the micro 159, suitable for interrupting the power supply to the electric motor of the sliding gate.
  • FIGS 6 , 7 and 8 are illustrating an embodiment according to the prior art. which has in place of the lever member 132 and the main lever 150 fixedly connected to it, a single substantially U-shaped lever member 232.
  • a first end 252 of the lever member 232 carries a termination 223 of the cable 222, whereas a second end is rotatably fixedly connected to a pin 235, integral with the shell 230.
  • Figures 9 and 10 illustrate a further possible practical embodiment of the invention, alternative to the first one where the components which are the same as and/or equivalent to those illustrated in figures 3 , 4 and 5 have the same reference numerals increased by 200.
  • the intervention mechanism for switching off the power supply to an actuation device of the sliding gate comprises a substantially L-shaped main lever member 350 pivotally mounted on a fixed fulcrum 334, connected to a support 336, fixed at the top to the profile 312.
  • the fulcrum 334 is in a central position of the lever member 350, which carries at one end 352 the termination 323 of the cable 322.
  • An opposite end 354 of the lever member 350 has a flat surface 356 and a spring 358 for countering the support 336.
  • the flat surface 356 is in direct contact with a tab 360, which can be used for actuating the mechanism for shutting of the power supply to the sliding gate.
  • the spring 358 then takes the lever member 350 back into a rest position, in normal operating conditions of the sliding gate.
  • the protection and safety device comprises a spring or plate 337, substantially at an obtuse angle, and fixed at one of its ends onto a fixed fulcrum 339, mounted on the lever member 350 and, at its opposite end, onto a movable fulcrum 335, integral with the shell 330.
  • the movable fulcrum 335 When a collision takes place against the shell 330, the movable fulcrum 335 is displaced integral with the shell 330 itself, actuating a displacement of the spring or plate 337, which pushes the tab 360, which actuates the button 361 of the micro 359 to shut off the power supply to the actuation motor of the sliding gate.
  • the intervention mechanisms foreseen in the lower and upper portions of the rib and realised according to that which is described can be variously combined on the rib itself and used individually or in combination with each other, according to the user's needs.
  • the realisation according to the invention allows a complete protection to be realised on the entire length of each protection rib which can be realised for conventional sliding gates; furthermore, the fact that it foresees a deformable shell, both on the top and bottom of the rib, allows the use of rigid surfaces, which are particularly dangerous for whoever is in the vicinity, to be avoided.
