Definitions
- the present invention relates, in general, to a frame element for wings, to the frame that use such elements and to the wing that can be realised by means of such a frame.
- the present invention relates to frames for wings to be used in folding accordion doors of great dimensions to be installed in industrial buildings.
- Folding accordion doors and frames are known in the art, typically made of metal, that allow to realise the several wings that constitute folding doors.
- each type of wing is obtained by associating to a certain frame a certain panelling.
- association of panels to the frame is made at least in three different modes and, for each of such modes, typically it is provided that the frame has frame elements (components) having each a different shape.
- a first example of wing manufacturing mode provides, for instance, use of prefabricated panels of predefined cross-section and suitably shaped to be applied to a frame having frame elements shaped in a predefined mode.
- the frame elements or components 100 (Fig. 1), viewed in cross-section, comprise a base 110 dovetail shaped so as to accommodate, for instance, lateral fastening elements or hinges, first side faces 112, arranged to define the external profile of the frame and second side faces 115, joined to the first ones through sloped parts 114. Second side faces 115, parallel each other are separated in a predefined mode, so as to contain a prefabricated panel 118 of predefined cross-section.
- wing manufacturing mode provides, for instance, that a solidifiable plastic material 218, for instance polyurethane, is inserted in a complete frame having four components 200 (exemplified in Fig. 2 by means of a median cross-section of the frame) shaped in a second predefined mode, so as to obtain by means of a single operation a wing of predefined dimensions.
- a press 210 suitably shaped with two press elements 210a and 210b, arranged to contain the components 200 of the frame and the plastic material 218, and a device 215 arranged to inject the plastic material between the surfaces of the press 210 are provided.
- a further example of wing manufacturing mode provides, for instance, to apply to a frame, having corresponding components shaped in a third mode, laminate sheets arranged to cover the frame.
- a first problem, common to the background art, is that the known frame elements have configurations that typically do not introduce high solidity characteristics and such to grant an optimal and long-lasting in time behaviour.
- the frames made with known frame elements introduce a typical weakness in the right angle joints between the several frame elements.
- each wings panelling embodiment requires frame elements having shapes each other diversified.
- a first consequence to such a problem is that the company or firm that constructs frame elements for wings must have a catalogue of frame elements for wings diversified as a function of the type of wings demanded by customers.
- Object of the present invention is, therefore, to overcome the problems outlined above of the background art in manufacturing panelled wings to be used, in particular, for large-sized folding doors.
- the present invention relates also to a frame for wings that uses frame elements according to the invention, to the wing that uses the frame according to the invention and to the related method.
- the frame element has a cross-section that comprises at least a first recess arranged to contain, for instance, hinges for moving the wing, at least a second recess, opposed to the first recess and arranged to contain fastening devices of the wing, for instance to a column, and an intermediate space between the two recesses arranged to contain elements or devices arranged to reinforce the anchorage.
- the profile of the frame elements is shaped so as frames may be panelled in the several modes provided in the art without the necessity of any adaptation.
- a frame for instance for folding doors, comprises, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, four frame elements (components) 10, each having, for instance, the same shape and cross-section, and a length definable at will.
- each frame element (component) 10 for instance realised in a known way by means of a rolled metal section, is shaped, in the preferred embodiment, so as to comprise a dovetail surface (dovetail) 12 (Fig. 3a, Fig.
- Dovetail 12 preferably, has a face 22, in particular the central face of the dovetail, substantially parallel to respective pairs of faces 23a, 23b and 26a, 26b pertaining, respectively, to L surfaces 14a, 14b, 15a and 15b; moreover, preferably, the face 22 is substantially orthogonal to respective pairs of faces 24a, 24b and 25a, 25b pertaining, respectively, to L surfaces 14a, 14b, 15a and 15b of component 10.
- the shape of the cross-section of component 10 is preferably symmetrical relative to a median plane orthogonal to the dovetail 12; faces 25a 25b of the surfaces 15a and 15b, preferably, are folded internally to the faces 24a and 24b, and have both equal length and lower than the length of the faces 24a and 24b and are arranged to determine a predetermined distance "D2" between such faces 25a and 25b, for instance a distance apt to accommodate a prefabricated panel of predetermined width.
- Faces 26a and 26b of surfaces 15a and 15b have too, a length, preferably each other identical; the above length is such to leave a gap "D1" of predetermined width between the ends of the faces 26a and 26b, for instance a width apt to grant a threaded rod of a bolt to pass there-between.
- the cross-section of component 10 is shaped so that the dovetail surface 12 realises a first recess "A", that represents or determines a first side of component 10, and that is apt to contain, in a known way, devices like hinges arranged to grant wings movement.
- the surface defined by the "L" specular surfaces respectively 15a and 15b and opposed to the dovetail surface represents or determines a second recess "B" apt to contain, for instance, fastening elements, as it will be disclosed later on in detail.
- the first and second recess, respectively "A” and “B” are separated by a free area or space “C” having a predetermined thickness "D3" apt to allow to insert, for instance, elements as counterplates arranged to strengthen anchorage of locking mechanical elements, as fastening angle bars or plates for columns.
- the inner faces 25a and 25b being substantially in contact with the respective external faces 24a and 24b determine two lateral surfaces having substantially a single surface usable, as it will be disclosed later on in detail, for executing panelling of wings in different modes, still being identical the component 10.
- Components 10 are arranged to realise, in the preferred embodiment, a rectangular frame for an accordion door, by connecting each other the same components and taking advantage, for instance, of the presence of the second recess "B" as disclosed.
- the end of a first component 10 can be, for instance, joined to the end of a second component 10, identical to the first one, by placing an angular module (angle bar) 31, of known type, having a width "DM" greater than the D1 gap, on the faces 26a and 26b of the two components 10, and by placing respective counterplates 33, 33', of known type, having width "DC" greater than the D1 gap, in the free area having predetermined thickness D3.
- the angle bar 31 comprises, for instance, a pair of threaded holes by side and the counterplates, 33 and 33', and, in an equivalent way, faces 22 of two components 10, equivalent each other, comprise through holes in corresponding positions so as to allow fastening the angle bars by means of threaded bolts and the consequent locking of the two components 10 in orthogonal position.
- fastening of two components 10 can be also realised in other ways, for instance by modifying the number or direction of the locking bolts, or in equivalent modes, for instance by welding the ends of the two components at 45° without for this departing from the scope of the invention as disclosed.

- panel 40 in this manufacturing mode rests on the second recess "B” and therefore it does not interfere with the first recess "A” so as to allow use of the first recess "A” and of the free area having predetermined thickness "D3" for fastening the angle bars by means of counterplates 33 and 33'.
- the rectangular shaped frame can also be used for realising panelled wings by means of solidifiable plastic material (solidifiable material) 50 (Fig. 5), as for instance expanded polyurethane.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates, in general, to a frame element for wings, to the frame that use such elements and to the wing that can be realised by means of such a frame. In particular, the present invention relates to frames for wings to be used in folding accordion doors of great dimensions to be installed in industrial buildings.
- Folding accordion doors and frames are known in the art, typically made of metal, that allow to realise the several wings that constitute folding doors.
- It is also known that each type of wing is obtained by associating to a certain frame a certain panelling. For instance, according to current state of the art, association of panels to the frame is made at least in three different modes and, for each of such modes, typically it is provided that the frame has frame elements (components) having each a different shape.
- A first example of wing manufacturing mode provides, for instance, use of prefabricated panels of predefined cross-section and suitably shaped to be applied to a frame having frame elements shaped in a predefined mode. In such an embodiment, the frame elements or components 100 (Fig. 1), viewed in cross-section, comprise a
base 110 dovetail shaped so as to accommodate, for instance, lateral fastening elements or hinges,first side faces 112, arranged to define the external profile of the frame andsecond side faces 115, joined to the first ones throughsloped parts 114.
Second side faces 115, parallel each other are separated in a predefined mode, so as to contain aprefabricated panel 118 of predefined cross-section. - Another example of wing manufacturing mode provides, for instance, that a solidifiable
plastic material 218, for instance polyurethane, is inserted in a complete frame having four components 200 (exemplified in Fig. 2 by means of a median cross-section of the frame) shaped in a second predefined mode, so as to obtain by means of a single operation a wing of predefined dimensions.
In such a type of embodiment use of apress 210, suitably shaped with twopress elements components 200 of the frame and theplastic material 218, and adevice 215 arranged to inject the plastic material between the surfaces of thepress 210 are provided. - A further example of wing manufacturing mode provides, for instance, to apply to a frame, having corresponding components shaped in a third mode, laminate sheets arranged to cover the frame.
- A first problem, common to the background art, is that the known frame elements have configurations that typically do not introduce high solidity characteristics and such to grant an optimal and long-lasting in time behaviour.
In particular, the frames made with known frame elements introduce a typical weakness in the right angle joints between the several frame elements. - A further problem common to the known solutions is that each wings panelling embodiment requires frame elements having shapes each other diversified.
A first consequence to such a problem is that the company or firm that constructs frame elements for wings must have a catalogue of frame elements for wings diversified as a function of the type of wings demanded by customers. - The Applicant, in conclusion, has noticed that the requirement exists to have available frame elements for wings and respective frames simple, particularly solid, less expensive and usable in the several possible panelling manufacturing modes.
- Object of the present invention is, therefore, to overcome the problems outlined above of the background art in manufacturing panelled wings to be used, in particular, for large-sized folding doors.
- The object is achieved by means of the frame element for wings as claimed.
- The present invention relates also to a frame for wings that uses frame elements according to the invention, to the wing that uses the frame according to the invention and to the related method.
- Claims are an integral part of the teaching of the present invention.
- According to a preferred embodiment the frame element has a cross-section that comprises at least a first recess arranged to contain, for instance, hinges for moving the wing, at least a second recess, opposed to the first recess and arranged to contain fastening devices of the wing, for instance to a column, and an intermediate space between the two recesses arranged to contain elements or devices arranged to reinforce the anchorage.
- According to a further feature of the present invention, the profile of the frame elements is shaped so as frames may be panelled in the several modes provided in the art without the necessity of any adaptation.
- These and further features and advantages of the present invention will appear more clearly from the following detailed description of preferred embodiments, provided by way of non-limiting examples with reference to the attached drawings, in which components designated by same or similar reference numerals indicate components having same or similar functionality and construction and wherein:
- Fig. 1 shows a frame element for accordion door and a first panelling method according to the background art;
- Fig. 2 shows a second panelling method according to the background art;
- Fig. 3a shows a perspective view of frame elements according to the invention;
- Fig. 3b shows a cross-section view of a frame element according to the invention;
- Fig. 4 shows a first embodiment of a wing realised by using the frame elements according to the invention;
- Fig. 5 shows a second embodiment of a wing realised by using the frame elements according to the invention;
- Fig. 6 shows a third embodiment of a wing realised by using the frame elements according to the invention.
- With reference to Fig. 3a a frame, for instance for folding doors, comprises, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, four frame elements (components) 10, each having, for instance, the same shape and cross-section, and a length definable at will.
In particular, each frame element (component) 10, for instance realised in a known way by means of a rolled metal section, is shaped, in the preferred embodiment, so as to comprise a dovetail surface (dovetail) 12 (Fig. 3a, Fig. 3b), one pair of specular surfaces at "L" (L external surfaces), respectively 14a and 14b, joined to the sides ofdovetail 12 and a further pair of specular surfaces at "L" (L inner surfaces), respectively 15a and 15b, folded, as it will be disclosed later on in detail, inside to the respective L external surfaces, 14a and 14b.
Dovetail 12, preferably, has aface 22, in particular the central face of the dovetail, substantially parallel to respective pairs offaces L surfaces face 22 is substantially orthogonal to respective pairs offaces L surfaces component 10.
The shape of the cross-section ofcomponent 10 is preferably symmetrical relative to a median plane orthogonal to thedovetail 12; faces25a 25b of thesurfaces faces faces such faces
Faces surfaces faces - In summary, the cross-section of
component 10 is shaped so that thedovetail surface 12 realises a first recess "A", that represents or determines a first side ofcomponent 10, and that is apt to contain, in a known way, devices like hinges arranged to grant wings movement.
The surface defined by the "L" specular surfaces respectively 15a and 15b and opposed to the dovetail surface, represents or determines a second recess "B" apt to contain, for instance, fastening elements, as it will be disclosed later on in detail.
The first and second recess, respectively "A" and "B" are separated by a free area or space "C" having a predetermined thickness "D3" apt to allow to insert, for instance, elements as counterplates arranged to strengthen anchorage of locking mechanical elements, as fastening angle bars or plates for columns.
Advantageously, theinner faces external faces component 10. -
Components 10 are arranged to realise, in the preferred embodiment, a rectangular frame for an accordion door, by connecting each other the same components and taking advantage, for instance, of the presence of the second recess "B" as disclosed.
In particular, the end of afirst component 10 can be, for instance, joined to the end of asecond component 10, identical to the first one, by placing an angular module (angle bar) 31, of known type, having a width "DM" greater than the D1 gap, on thefaces components 10, and by placingrespective counterplates 33, 33', of known type, having width "DC" greater than the D1 gap, in the free area having predetermined thickness D3.
Still more in particular, preferably, theangle bar 31 comprises, for instance, a pair of threaded holes by side and the counterplates, 33 and 33', and, in an equivalent way, faces 22 of twocomponents 10, equivalent each other, comprise through holes in corresponding positions so as to allow fastening the angle bars by means of threaded bolts and the consequent locking of the twocomponents 10 in orthogonal position.
Obviously, in further connection configurations, fastening of twocomponents 10 can be also realised in other ways, for instance by modifying the number or direction of the locking bolts, or in equivalent modes, for instance by welding the ends of the two components at 45° without for this departing from the scope of the invention as disclosed. - On the basis of the above disclosure it is therefore possible to realise rectangular shaped frames preferably usable for constructing wings 30 (Fig. 7), for instance doors wings, in particular wings of industrial type accordion doors.
- For instance, the rectangular shaped frame can be used for making
panelled wings 30 by means of prefabricated panels 40 (Fig. 4, Fig. 7).
In particular, for obtaining a wing by means ofprefabricated panels 40 having, for instance, width equal to the distance "D2" between theinner faces components 10 of the frame interconnected in one of the described modes so as to define a structure in which, by inserting theprefabricated panel 40 and by subsequently fastening thefourth component 10, it is possible to realise the intended wing having aprefabricated panel 40.
Further more in particular, it is also possible to provide in the panel 40 a central flaring arranged to accommodate, for instance,angle bars 31. - As easily comprehensible to a technician in the field,
panel 40, in this manufacturing mode rests on the second recess "B" and therefore it does not interfere with the first recess "A" so as to allow use of the first recess "A" and of the free area having predetermined thickness "D3" for fastening the angle bars by means ofcounterplates 33 and 33'. - The rectangular shaped frame can also be used for realising panelled wings by means of solidifiable plastic material (solidifiable material) 50 (Fig. 5), as for instance expanded polyurethane.
In this embodiment, it is sufficient to realise a complete frame having fourcomponents 10 interconnected each other and to insert the frame, in a known way, in a press of the type represented in Fig. 2.
Such an embodiment is feasible because the external faces, 24a and 24b (Fig. 2, Fig. 3a, Fig. 3b) respectively, are apt to adhere to thesurfaces press 210, and the second recess "B" comprising a void gap "D1" allows the plastic material to enter in the free area of predetermined thickness "D3" so as to guarantee a good seal to the solidified plastic material.
In particular, as easily comprehensible to a technician in the field, according to this embodiment an injection hole is provided in at least one of thecomponents 10 on at least one surface, for instance on thedovetail surface 12; such an injection hole is apt to allow to adevice 215, of known type, to inject theplastic material 50 between thesurfaces press 210 and in the frame.
Also in such an exemplary embodiment the injectedplastic material 50 does not interfere with the first recess "A" so as to allow use of the recess "A" for fastening, for instance, in a known way, the necessary hinges required for mutually moving the wings.
Moreover, the presence of the two recesses "A" and "B" allows to fasten the angle bars before the injection of the plastic material, by interposing, for instance, in the free area of predetermined thickness "D3", one or more counterplates apt to strengthen or support the angle bar fastening. - The rectangular shaped frame can also be used for realising panelled wings by means of
laminate sheets 60 apt to cover the frame itself.
In this embodiment it is provided that the frame comprises aninner panel 61, for instance made of polystylene (or similar materials), fastened to the frame by the same modes as provided for the prefabricated panels, and that to thisinner panel 61laminate sheets 60 are glued. Obviously, the laminate sheets are also fastened, for instance by gluing, to the frame so as to realise the wing. - Also according to this exemplary embodiment, as easily comprehensible to a technician in the field, the
panel 61 andlaminate sheets 60 do not interfere to a suitable and strength fastening of both the angle bars and hinges, in a way equivalent to that already described for the wings realised by means of prefabricated panels. - In summary the components according to the present invention allow to realise any type of wings, for instance for industrial accordion doors.
- The
component 10, as described, by comprising two opposed recesses, allows also to use one of the recesses, for instance the recess "B", for fastening the wing to a column. As a matter of fact, as easily comprehensible to a technician in the field, it is sufficient for realising a door wing to be fastened to a column, to provide a counterplate inserted in the free area of predetermined thickness "D3", to fasten to the counterplate a fastening or anchorage element ormodule 38 apt to be fastened or anchored to the column, and to use the first recess "A" for fastening one or more hinges 35. - In the description the
component 10 has been shown as obtained by a single rolled section, but, as easily comprehensible to a technician in the field, the suggested section can also be obtained in other ways without modifying the characteristics of the described matter. - In the description, for the cross-section of the component, surfaces preferably parallels or orthogonal each other have been suggested, but, as easily comprehensible to a technician in the field, the surfaces may have also angles little different from those suggested as preferable.
- Obvious changes and/or variations to the above disclosure are possible, as regards dimensions, shapes, materials, components and connections as well as details of the described construction and operation method without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the claims that follow.
