Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an angular foldable partition wall, and in particular to an indoor or outdoor partition wall which can be folded in a bellows-like manner and is provided with two series of foldable vertical panels forming a corner when the partition wall is closed.
  • Italian patent 1312771 discloses a partition wall comprising a plurality of panels hinged two by two by means of pairs of upper and lower hinges, some of which provided with carriages or cursors for sliding in rails or guides, so that the panels can be folded in a bellows-like manner on one side of the wall.
  • Two partition walls of this kind can be arranged perpendicularly for closing the corner of a room, however the panels of either wall can be folded only at the ends of the respective rails and guides and not all together on one side, since the rails are formed by aluminum section bars which cannot be easily bent for obtaining curves which deviate the direction of the carriages in correspondence with said corner without locking problems of the carriages in the section bars.
  • all panels of the angular partition wall according to the present invention can be folded together on one side of the same wall.
  • connections can be easily adapted and fixed to the corner to be closed, without spoiling the aesthetics of the partition wall.
  • the panels, the rails, the guides and/or the carriages of the partition wall are provided with particular technical arrangements for allowing their handy, smooth and reliable use.
  • the partition wall according to the present invention comprises in a known way one or more series of panels 1, 2, which are hinged two by two by means of pairs of first upper and lower hinges, which first hinges are alternated with pairs of second upper and lower hinges, wherein the first upper hinges are pivoted under carriages 3 (shown with broken lines) which can run in two upper rails 4 and 5 forming an angle a, in particular equal to 90°, but which can also be acute or obtuse, in particular greater than 90°, and can be fixed for example to the ceiling of a room.
  • the first lower hinges are provided with cursors 6 which can run in two lower guides 7 and 8 which form substantially the same angle a and can be fixed for example to the floor of said room under the upper rails 4, 5.
  • the second upper and lower hinges are not restrained to the upper rails 4, 5 or to the lower guides 7, 8, so that panels 1, 2 can be folded in a bellows-like manner, for example toward the inside of said room.
  • Panels 1, 2 generally comprise a central transparent portion, made up of a glass pane.
  • the present embodiment comprises two separate series of panels 1, 2, wherein the two adjacent panels 1', 2' of either series are restrained only to a pair of upper and lower hinges, so that they can freely rotate around a vertical axis passing through these hinges.
  • the upper rails 4, 5 are suitably connected to each other by an upper connection 9 suitable for deviating carriages 3 from an upper rail to the other, so that panels 1, 2 can be folded together in an upper rail.
  • the lower guides 7, 8 are suitably connected to each other by a lower connection 10 suitable for deviating cursors 6 from a lower guide to the other.
  • the movement of the two series of panels 1 and 2 is shown by arrows 11 and 12 of figure 1.
  • Figures 4 and 5 show the upper connection 9 which comprises a curved wall 9a fixed between the side walls of the upper rails 4, 5 which are turned inwards, i.e. on the sides of the rails which delimit angle a, wherein the two tangents to the ends of the curved wall 9a are parallel to the upper rail 4 and to the upper rail 5, respectively.
  • the lower edge of the curved wall 9a is joined to a curved tongue 9b which follows the profile of the curved wall 9a and is turned toward the upper rails 4, 5, so that its ends are partially arranged under these rails.
  • the upper connection 9 also comprises a lower plate 9c which is fixed under the intersection of the upper rails 4, 5 and is provided with an inner curved edge which follows the profile of the curved wall 9a and/or of the curved tongue 9b.
  • angle a is equal to 90°
  • the curved wall 9a has the shape of a quarter of cylinder
  • the outer edge of the curved tongue 9b and the curved inner edge of the lower plate 9c have the shape of a quarter of a circle.
  • the upper rails 4, 5 are formed by section bars, generally made of aluminum, and comprise a longitudinal duct 13 in which carriages 3 (shown with broken lines in figure 4) can run.
  • the longitudinal duct 13 is open downwards through a longitudinal slit 14 which is narrower than the longitudinal duct 13 and allows a shaft 15 (shown with broken lines in figure 4) to connect carriages 3 to the first upper hinges of panels 1, 2.
  • the tangents to the two ends of the curved inner edge of the lower plate 9c and of the outer edge of the curved tongue 9b are aligned with the outer edge and the inner edge, respectively, of the longitudinal slits 14 of the upper rails 4, 5, so that the distance between the curved inner edge of the lower plate 9c and the outer edge of the curved tongue 9b is substantially equal to the width of the longitudinal slits 14.
  • the outer side walls of the upper rails 4, 5 are preferably prolonged downwards and bent inwards so as to form seats 4a and 5a for housing the outer edges of the lower plate 9c.
  • the upper connection 9 further comprises two vertical plates 9d and 9e which join the curved wall 9a to the upper rail 4 and to the upper rail 5, respectively.
  • the upper rails 4, 5 are provided with lateral and lower openings 16 and 17 in correspondence with the ends of the curved wall 9a of the upper connection 9, so that carriages 3 can come out of the longitudinal ducts 13 of the upper rails 4, 5 through these openings and go into the upper connection 9, thereby following the trajectory of arrow 18.
  • the lateral and lower openings 16 and 17 are obtained by removing a portion of the inner side wall and of the lower wall adjacent to the longitudinal slits 14 of the upper rails 4, 5.
  • Figures 7 and 8 show a carriage 3 which comprises a substantially parallelepiped-shaped central body 3a and a plurality of wheels 3b pivoted to the sides of the central body 3a for rotating around horizontal axes and running both on the edges of the longitudinal slits 14 and on the edges of the curved tongue 9b and of the lower plate 9c of the upper connection 9 (as it is clearly shown in figure 8).
  • the central body 3a is provided with a vertical hole in which shaft 15 is inserted.
  • the front and rear sides of carriage 3 are preferably provided with flexible fins 3c acting as bumpers for the adjacent carriages when panels 1 and 2 are folded.
  • the lower portion of the central body 3a protrudes under wheels 3b and/or is provided with cursors 3d (shown with broken lines only in figure 8) which protrude under wheels 3b, so that said lower portion and/or said cursors 3d are arranged in the slit comprised between the edges of the curved tongue 9b and of the lower plate 9c of the upper connection 9 for guiding carriage 3 when it is in this connection.
  • said cursors 3d can consist of rollers which are pivoted under the central body 3a of carriage 3 for rotating around vertical axes.
  • the width of the central body 3a and/or of cursors 3d is narrower than the width of the longitudinal slits 14 of the upper rails 4, 5.
  • the lower connection 10 comprises a curved section bar which has a U-shaped cross-section and is fixed to the floor between the near ends of the lower guides 7, 8.
  • the curved section bar has the shape of a quarter of a circle.
  • the lower guides 7, 8 are also formed by section bars, generally made of aluminum, and comprise a longitudinal groove 19 in which cursors 6 can run.
  • the hermetic closure between the two adjacent panels 1', 2' of either series is obtained by means of a gasket 20, preferably transparent, in particular with a minuscule h-shaped cross-section, which is arranged astride the free vertical edge of the first adjacent panel, for example panel 1'.
  • Gasket 20 has a shape suitable for the hermetic coupling with a shaped rod 21, also preferably transparent, which protrudes from one side of the free vertical edge of the second adjacent panel, for example panel 2'.
  • the two adjacent panels 1', 2' are preferably provided with latches 22 suitable for penetrating into holes made in the floor.
