Definitions

  • the present patent application refers to an electrical connection unit for motorised systems of shades, roll-up blinds and rolling shutters in general
  • Shades, roll-up blinds and rolling shutters in general are normally provided with electrical motorised systems used to roll them up or down.
  • each motorised system is provided with a geared motor housed in a metal cylindrical case inserted in the hollow take-up roll of a shade, roll-up blind and similar item; it being also provided that the geared motor is equipped with an end-of-travel assembly housed inside the same metal case.
  • a special plastic moulded plate is permanently fixed to the wall with suitable supports, the most common being a central pin with horizontal axis.
  • the central pin is normally one of the two wall fixing points of the take-up roll.
  • the shaft of the geared motor axially protrudes from the most internal part of the cylindrical case and is coupled with the central hole of a driving pulley fixed on the inside of the take-up roll.
  • the actuation of the geared motor in either direction determines alternate rotations of the take-up roll, which correspond to the rolling up or down of the shade or roll-up blind fixed to it.
  • the operation of the geared motor is obviously determined by the presence of electrical power supply.
  • the power supply cables have to pass through the support plate that covers the opening of the case and through the end-of-travel assembly located immediately behind it.
  • end-of-travel assembly support and take-up roll plate has been recently modified in order to make it compatible with a fast coupling connector mounted at the ends of the cable used for connection to the electrical mains.
  • the support plate has been provided with a hole for the connector, and the support of the end-of-travel assembly has been provided with a socket for the connector; it is worthless saying that the socket is electrically connected with the geared motor so that, once connected, the connector can provide mains power to the geared motor.
  • the electrical connection can also be carried out after the installer has completed the assembly of the take-up device, that is to say when the cables that connect the take-up roll to the electrical mains no longer interfere with the installer's movements.
  • Such a connection is shown in EP 1 207 266 .
  • a metal insert has been embedded in the plastic structure of the end-of-travel assembly support that houses the socket for connection with the connector.
  • the insert has been designed in such as way as to act as conducting bridge between the earth contact of the socket mounted on the end-of-travel assembly support and the metal structure of the cylindrical case.
  • the ending section of the claw comes into direct contact with the external wall of the metal case, thus creating earth continuity between the two components.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to provide a practical, safe and economic means to create the connection between a power supply connector and the actuation unit of the take-up roll of shades, roll-up blinds and similar items; in particular, this connection can advantageously provide the necessary continuity between the earth contact of the connector and the metal case that usually houses the geared motor with accessories.
  • the purpose of the invention has been achieved by providing a completely metal structure of the front support of the end-of-travel assembly housed in the case and coupled with the support plate of the take-up roll.
  • the support of the end-of-travel assembly has a basically cylindrical shape and is provided with longitudinal ribs on the perimeter. Once the end-of-travel assembly is inserted in the metal cylindrical case, the longitudinal ribs come in contact with the internal walls of the case, thus creating an electric bridge connection between the case and the metal support of the end-of-travel assembly.
  • the connector of the present invention has a flat, elongated shape that has been especially designed to reduce volumes; this allows for minimising the dimensions of the socket incorporated on the metal support of the end-of-travel assembly and the dimensions of the through hole on the support plate of the take-up roll.
  • Another characteristic of the connector of the invention is represented by the internal presence of a metal sheet connected to the earth wire and provided with two lateral wings that protrude out of the plastic structure of the connector on opposite sides.
  • the female elements (of faston type) of the connector When the connector is engaged in the end-of-travel assembly support, after passing through the opening on the support plate, the female elements (of faston type) of the connector are coupled with the male elements of the socket, and the external wings of the connector interfere with the lateral walls of the niche that houses the socket.
  • the interference creates earth continuity between the metal case and the external lateral wings of the connector of the invention.
  • the take-up roll (1) is supported by two ending pins (2, 3) fixed to the wall, with the possibility of rotating around its longitudinal axes, as shown in Fig. 1 .
  • a metal cylindrical case (4) is inserted in the take-up roll (1) and supported by an ending plate (5) and a pulley (6) joined to the take-up roll and splinted on the shaft (7) of the geared motor (8) housed in the cylindrical case (4).
  • the case (4) also houses the end-of-travel assembly (9) associated with the geared motor (8) in order to interrupt power supply when the shade or roll-up blind fixed to the take-up roll (1) reaches the end of the ascending or descending travel.
  • the end-of-travel assembly (9) is provided with a front support (10) on which a driving ring (11) located on the back of the plate (5) is inserted, with possibility of rotation.
  • the driving ring (11) is externally joined to the take-up roll and internally engaged with the gears (9a) of the end-of-travel assembly (9).
  • Fig. 2 shows the metal cylindrical case (4) designed to be axially inserted in the take-up roll (1) of a shade or roll-up blind; the end-of-travel assembly (9) is in turn inserted in the case (4) and provided with a front support (10) with basically cylindrical configuration, characterised in that it is provided with a completely metal structure.
  • the front support (10) is provided with two sections (10a, 10b) with different cross-section joined by an intermediate annular step (10c); in particular, the tapered front section (10a) is characterised in that it incorporates frontally the niche (12) that houses a socket, whose elements are electrically connected with the geared motor (8) inserted in the case (4).
  • the back section (10b) with higher cross-section is characterised in that it has an external regular series of longitudinal ribs (13) capable of interfering with the internal walls of the cylindrical case (4) and creating an electric bridge connection when the end-of-travel assembly (9) is inserted in the case (4).
  • the plate (5) is provided with a through opening (5a) exactly in the same position as the niche (12) of the socket incorporated in the support (10) of the end-of-travel assembly (9).
  • the plate (5) has a rather complicated, yet traditional, structure with holes (5b) for fixing to the support (10) of the end-of-travel assembly (9), the pin with horizontal axis (3) to support the take-up roll to the wall, and housings (5c) to access the adjustment screws used to adjust the mechanisms provided on the end-of-travel assembly (9) to select the correct end point of the geared motor (8) that actuates the take-up roll (1 ).
  • the connector (14) is characterised by the presence on opposite sides of flexible metal wings (15) that protrude from a metal sheet embedded in the plastic structure of the connector (14) and connected with the earth wire.
  • the connector (14) is inserted in the through opening (5a) on the plate (5) and coupled with corresponding elements of the socket housed in the niche (12) of the end-of-travel assembly (9).
  • the back of the connector (14) incorporates a longitudinal pair of shaped springs (16) that tend to spread apart and are designed to interfere with the lateral walls of the opening (5a) of the plate (5).
  • the springs (16) are provided with undercuts that allow for coupling to the lateral walls of the opening (5a) in order to prevent the accidental release of the connector (14) from the socket.
  • the connector (14) can be released by pressing the springs (16) one against the other in order to uncouple them from the lateral walls of the opening (5a).
