Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a system for guiding a door sliding between two side walls of a storage volume of parallelepipedic box type, using a conventional system to guide rails, the door fitting into the volume of the box when in the open position.
  • Boxes with doors obeying such a system are commonly used in the field of furniture office. These furniture elements are closed either by shutters sliding mobiles, formed of successive slats that provide a deformability at the door, and allow its winding / unwinding to inside the volume of the box, either by rigid doors.
  • the invention relates to said rigid doors, generally formed of a plane element deformable blocking, in the closed position, the opening of the caisson.
  • elements of the type stud or roller are guided in a slide having a vertical section connected to a section of pace horizontally placed near and often parallel to the ceiling of the caisson.
  • these side edges are therefore placed in front of the vertically-shaped portions of the slide, which are then masked.
  • the axis of displacement of said protruding elements is, in fact, included in the middle plane of the door or in the immediate vicinity of this one.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to propose a configuration in which it It is possible to shift the door forward of the slides, for example to meet such an aesthetic requirement.
  • the guidance system of the invention applies more specifically to a sliding door between two side walls of a box each provided with a two-section slide rail communicating rectilinear, and allows the movement of said door by means of pins laterally projecting from level of its lateral songs, arranged symmetrically on both sides of the door and sliding in the slides at the rate of two pawns per slide.
  • the pivot axis preferably remains in or in the vicinity immediate of this average plan. From a functional point of view, this axis of pivoting must also be close to the singing upper door, to allow the "storage" of the door nearby the ceiling of the box.
  • the pivot axis of the door and the axis of the upper pions are arranged relatively in the pivoting part, so that when the door is closed, said upper pieces are already placed in the portions straight-running slides oriented substantially parallel to the ceiling.
  • the position of these is preferably axially adjustable surplus so to allow an optimal operation of the sliding by bringing the free ends of the pawns of the bottom of the slides, to avoid any movement "crabbing" when moving the door.
  • the pins form the axial end of parts the other end consists of two parallel branches whose external surfaces are in contact with external walls, one of the surface or wall being provided with notches intended to cooperate with a relief of the other in a rack-type operation allowing, by deformation elastic branches, a discreet axial adjustment between several positions.
  • said relief is actually also constituted by notches counterparts to the first and interacting with them.
  • This part is further guided axially by at least one orifice cylindrical housing a central portion of the pawn.
  • the guidance is carried out simultaneously by a orifice made in the side edge of the door and through a coaxial orifice in a paw parallel to said song and located towards the inside of the door.
  • FIG. 1 represents only a part of the box (C), to facilitate the explanation of the guidance system of the invention.
  • This allows, to the opening, the insertion of the door (P) parallel and in the vicinity of the ceiling (1) the box (C).
  • Guiding is carried out by means of a slide (2) having two rectilinear sections interconnected, one of which is oriented parallel to the ceiling (1), while the other is oriented parallel to the opening of the box, that is to say the plane of the door when closed.
  • the two sections are in this case perpendicular to each other.
  • Each slide (2) is traversed by two lateral pins, one of which (3) is directly attached to the side edge of the door, while the other (4) is integral with a part (5) pivotally mounted on the door (P).
  • the method of fixing the pin (3) to the door (P) appears more clearly in FIG. 2. It constitutes in fact the axial end of a part (6) (see FIG. the other end has two branches (7, 7 ').
  • the pawn (3) is guided by two coaxial orifices made in one leg (8) and the side edge (9) of the door (P).
  • the branches (7, 7 ') cooperate with two walls (10, 10'). They have, on their external surfaces, notches (15, 15 ') which cooperate with homologous notches (16, 16 ') protruding from each wall (10, 10') for perform rack-and-pinion operation allowing discrete axial adjustment thanks to the elasticity of the branches (7, 7 ').
  • the same type of pin (4) cooperates with a piece (5) (see Figure 5) allowing the pivoting of the door (P).
  • This piece (4) is always housed in the section of the slide (2) which is parallel to the ceiling (1) of the box (C), and it is guided axially, in order to adjust it, in a cylindrical housing (14) of the pivoting part (5).
  • This housing (14) in fact separates two parts distinct from the pivoting part: a part comprising the parts (10, 10 ') with their notches (16, 16 '), and a carriage part (13) guided in the slide (2) .
  • La wall (10) is further extended by a wing (17) provided of orifices (18) capable of housing a shaft (19) (see FIGS. 1, 2 and 3) materializing the axis around which the rotation takes place.
  • Housing (14) surrounds the part central pawn (4), located near the branches (7,7 ').
  • the axial adjustment of each piece (3,4) makes it possible to ensure its correct positioning at the bottom of slides to prevent said movement "crab".
  • the discreet setting of each peg is made for example in steps of 0.5 mm, said step being in fact fixed by notching the branches (7,7 ') and the walls (10,10').
  • FIG. 3 clearly shows that in a box configuration (C) such that shown, with a peripheral opening frame made of a sheet folded into bevel (11), it is not possible to arrange the slide (2) close to the outer edge (12) of said frame.
  • a solution such as that of the invention, with a part (5) distinguishing the axis of the pin (4) and the pin (19) from the pivoting with pins (3, 4) which are shifted towards the inside of the box (C).
  • FIGS. 6a to 6e which illustrate the opening operation of the door
  • the axis of the pin (4) and that of the pivot (19) are doubly offset, along a vertical axis and along a horizontal axis.
  • the room (5) undergoes only a translation movement during the opening operation and, in the configuration shown, so that the door (P) can be inserted into the near the ceiling (1) of the box (C), it is necessary that its axis of pivoting is shifted upwards, that is to say located close to said ceiling (1).
  • This meets a dual aesthetic and functional need, this last being in the realization of a maximum surface opening.
  • FIG. 6 c shows that in the next phase, when accentuating the pivoting of the door (P), the pin (4) and the piece (5) sink into the slide (2) towards the bottom of the box (C), and the pin (3) takes off from the end bottom of the slide (2).
  • the door (P) When it reaches the upper end of the said section vertically, the door (P) is in a horizontal position, that is to say parallel to the ceiling (1) of the box (C).
  • the counter (3) located at the left end of the horizontal section of the slide (2), while the pawn (4) is almost halfway through this slide (2).
