Description

La présente invention concerne un coffre-tunnel pour volet roulant destiné à reposer sur la traverse supérieure d'un dormant pourvu de coulisses, le coffre-tunnel comprenant un caisson fermé à ses extrémités latérales par une paire de joues, celles-ci étant pourvues respectivement de deux pattes d'ancrage prévues pour être montées dans les coulisses.The present invention relates to a tunnel box for roller shutter intended to rest on the upper cross member of a frame provided with slides, the tunnel box comprising a box closed at its lateral ends by a pair of cheeks, the latter being respectively provided two anchors provided to be mounted behind the scenes.

Un coffre-tunnel pour volet roulant est un accessoire qui est placé au-dessus d'une embrasure réalisée dans un mur pour recevoir une fenêtre ou une porte afin d'occulter, par l'intermédiaire d'un tablier, au moins partiellement ladite embrasure.A tunnel box for roller shutter is an accessory that is placed above an embrasure made in a wall to receive a window or a door in order to conceal, by means of an apron, at least partially said embrasure .

Le coffre-tunnel comprend ainsi un caisson constitué d'un profilé de section en U inversé, fermé à ses extrémités libres par deux joues entre lesquelles est tenu un tambour d'entraînement autour duquel peut s'enrouler ou se dérouler le tablier.The tunnel box thus comprises a box consisting of an inverted U section section, closed at its free ends by two cheeks between which is held a drive drum around which can roll or unfold the deck.

Le caisson peut être intégré à la construction de la maçonnerie, au dessus de l'embrasure ou être posé ultérieurement. L'invention s'intéresse à cette dernière configuration.The box can be integrated in the construction of the masonry, above the embrasure or be placed later. The invention is concerned with this latter configuration.

Pour poser un caisson, et de manière générale un coffre-tunnel à l'issue de la construction du mur, on peut le fixer sur un dormant d'une huisserie que l'on vient ensuite solidariser dans l'embrasure. Le dormant comporte en particulier deux montants verticaux réunis à leurs extrémités par une traverse inférieure et une traverse supérieure. Deux coulisses sont accolées aux montants verticaux, à l'arrière du dormant, pour permettre le coulissement des extrémités des lames constitutives du tablier.To install a box, and generally a tunnel box after the construction of the wall, it can be fixed on a frame of a frame that is then secured in the doorway. The frame includes in particular two vertical uprights joined at their ends by a lower cross and an upper cross. Two slides are contiguous to the vertical uprights, at the back of the frame, to allow the sliding of the ends of the constituent blades of the deck.

Pour permettre sa fixation, le coffre-tunnel est habituellement pourvu sur ses joues de deux pattes comme cela est présenté dans la demande de brevet FR-A-2 343 117 . Ces pattes, qui font saillie vers le bas, sont prévues pour s'encastrer dans les deux coulisses. Le montage du coffre-tunnel dans les coulisses est réalisé par un déplacement vertical de celui-ci afin que les pattes puissent s'encastrer dans les coulisses. Le coffre-tunnel repose alors sur la traverse supérieure du dormant. L'ensemble, c'est-à-dire le dormant pourvu de son coffre-tunnel, est ensuite monté dans l'embrasure. Pour cela, et compte tenu de la masse de l'ensemble, on pose la traverse inférieure du dormant sur la paroi inférieure de l'embrasure et on fait basculer l'ensemble dans ladite ouverture.To allow fixation, the tunnel box is usually provided on its cheeks with two legs as shown in the patent application. FR-A-2,343,117 . These legs, which project downward, are planned to fit into two scenes. The installation of the tunnel box in the wings is achieved by a vertical movement of the latter so that the legs can be embedded in the wings. The tunnel box then rests on the upper cross member of the frame. The assembly, that is to say the frame provided with its tunnel box, is then mounted in the doorway. For this, and taking into account the mass of the assembly, the lower cross member of the frame is placed on the lower wall of the recess and the assembly is tilted in said opening.

La fixation du coffre-tunnel sur le dormant n'est pas toujours satisfaisante car bien que tenu par ses pattes fixées dans les coulisses, le coffre-tunnel est monté en porte à faux à l'arrière du donnant afin qu'il demeure caché autant que faire ce peut à l'issue de sa pose. Par ailleurs, du fait de son montage en porte à faux, il dépasse de la partie arrière du dormant si bien qu'il faut prévoir une hauteur plus grande de l'embrasure afin de pouvoir loger le dormant et le coffre-tunnel dans celle-ci. L'espace résiduel entre la paroi supérieure de l'embrasure et la paroi du caisson du coffre-tunnel, de hauteur relativement importante, doit être rempli par un liant pour fixer le coffre-tunnel également avec le mur. Une épaisseur de liant plus fine serait meilleure pour obtenir une bonne adhésion du caisson contre la paroi supérieure de l'embrasure.The fixation of the tunnel box on the frame is not always satisfactory because although held by its legs fixed behind the scenes, the tunnel-box is mounted cantilevered at the back of the giving so that it remains hidden as much what can be done at the end of his pose. Moreover, because of its cantilevered mounting, it protrudes from the rear part of the frame so that it is necessary to provide a greater height of the doorway in order to accommodate the frame and the tunnel box in that frame. this. The residual space between the upper wall of the embrasure and the wall of the box of the tunnel box, of relatively large height, must be filled by a binder to fix the tunnel box also with the wall. A thinner binder thickness would be better to obtain a good adhesion of the box against the upper wall of the embrasure.

Le but de l'invention est donc de proposer un coffre-tunnel qui puisse apporter une solution à ces différents problèmes.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a tunnel box which can provide a solution to these various problems.

A cet effet, est proposé un coffre-tunnel de volet roulant destiné à être assemblé à un dormant d'une huisserie, le dormant étant susceptible d'être encastré dans une embrasure, le dormant étant pourvu de coulisses, le coffre-tunnel comprenant un caisson fermé à ses extrémités latérales par une paire de joues, celles-ci étant pourvues respectivement de deux pattes d'ancrage prévues pour être montées dans les coulisses. Selon l'invention, les pattes d'ancrage sont assemblées de manière articulée sur les joues.For this purpose, is proposed a shutter tunnel box for assembly to a frame of a frame, the frame being capable of being embedded in an embrasure, the frame being provided with slides, the tunnel box comprising a box closed at its lateral ends by a pair of cheeks, the latter being provided respectively with two anchors provided to be mounted behind the scenes. According to the invention, the anchoring tabs are articulately assembled on the cheeks.

On peut de la sorte faire basculer le coffre-tunnel pendant le montage des pattes d'ancrage dans les coulisses ce qui présente l'avantage de pouvoir faciliter son montage avec la traverse supérieure du dormant à l'aide d'un moyen de fixation annexe pour améliorer sa fixation ou faciliter le montage du dormant pourvu de son coffre-tunnel dans une embrasure.In this way, the tunnel box can be tilted during the mounting of the anchoring tabs in the slides, which has the advantage of being able to facilitate its assembly with the upper cross member of the frame by means of an additional fastening means. to improve its fixation or facilitate the mounting of the frame provided with its tunnel box in an embrasure.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, le dormant comprend une traverse supérieure, le caisson comprenant une paire de branches réunies par une paroi de voûte, une languette étant fixée sous une branche de manière à pouvoir coopérer avec un logement prévu sur la traverse supérieure du dormant pour fixer ledit coffre-tunnel sur ladite huisserie.According to an additional feature of the invention, the frame comprises an upper rail, the box comprising a pair of branches joined by an arch wall, a tongue being fixed under a branch so as to cooperate with a housing provided on the upper rail the frame to fix said tunnel box on said frame.

Ainsi, à l'issue du montage des pattes d'ancrage dans les coulisses, le coffre-tunnel est également assemblé avec la traverse supérieure du dormant.Thus, after mounting the anchors in the wings, the tunnel box is also assembled with the upper cross member of the frame.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, le logement est constitué d'un emplacement compris entre une lame pliée et la traverse supérieure, la lame pliée comprenant une première branche fixée sur ladite traverse supérieure, une branche intermédiaire inclinée par rapport à la première et qui la prolonge ainsi qu'une troisième branche qui prolonge la branche intermédiaire parallèlement à la première, la partie saillante de la languette pouvant être encastrée entre la troisième branche de la lame et la traverse supérieure.According to an additional feature of the invention, the housing consists of a location between a folded blade and the upper cross member, the folded blade comprising a first branch attached to said upper cross member, an intermediate branch inclined relative to the first and which extends as well as a third branch which extends the intermediate branch parallel to the first, the projecting portion of the tongue being recessed between the third branch of the blade and the upper cross.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, le caisson comporte une paroi de voûte, celle-ci étant pourvue d'une butée adaptée à coopérer avec la paroi intérieure d'un mur encadrant une embrasure.According to an additional feature of the invention, the box comprises a vault wall, the latter being provided with a stop adapted to cooperate with the inner wall of a wall flanking an embrasure.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, la butée est constituée d'un profilé de section triangulaire.According to an additional feature of the invention, the abutment consists of a section of triangular section.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, les coulisses sont fixées contre les montants verticaux du dormant et chaque coulisse est pourvue d'un logement adapté à recevoir la partie saillante d'une patte d'ancrage.According to an additional feature of the invention, the slides are fixed against the vertical uprights of the frame and each slide is provided with a housing adapted to receive the projecting portion of an anchoring tab.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, chaque patte d'ancrage est assemblée à l'extérieur d'une joue correspondante par l'intermédiaire d'une articulation.According to an additional feature of the invention, each anchor tab is assembled outside a corresponding cheek via a hinge.

The tongue 420 projects at the rear of the first branch 202.

A la Fig. 2a, on a représenté un coffre-tunnel 100 en cours de montage sur une paire de coulisses Co et sur la traverse supérieure Ts du dormant D d'une huisserie.In FIG. 2a, there is shown a tunnel box 100 being mounted on a pair of slides Co and on the upper rail Ts of the frame D of a frame.

A l'issue de son montage, l'ensemble ainsi constitué peut être monté en une seule opération dans l'embrasure, ce qui permet de réduire le temps de pose de l'ensemble.At the end of its assembly, the assembly thus formed can be mounted in a single operation in the doorway, which reduces the exposure time of the assembly.

Le moyen de fixation 400 comprend encore un logement 430 prévu sur la traverse supérieure Ts du dormant D et qui est apte à réceptionner la partie saillante de la languette 420. Le logement 430 est constitué ici d'un emplacement compris entre une lame pliée et la traverse supérieure Ts sur laquelle elle est fixée. La lame pliée comprend ainsi une première branche fixée sur la traverse supérieure Ts, une branche intermédiaire inclinée par rapport à la première et qui la prolonge, ainsi qu'une troisième branche qui prolonge la branche intermédiaire parallèlement à la première. La partie saillante de la languette 420 peut ainsi être encastrée entre la troisième branche de la lame et la traverse supérieure Ts.The fixing means 400 further comprises a housing 430 provided on the upper cross member Ts of the frame D and which is able to receive the protruding portion of the tongue 420. The housing 430 is constituted here of a location between a folded blade and the upper crossbar Ts on which it is fixed. The folded blade thus comprises a first branch attached to the upper cross member Ts, an intermediate branch inclined relative to the first and which extends, and a third branch which extends the intermediate branch parallel to the first. The protruding portion of the tongue 420 can thus be embedded between the third branch of the blade and the upper cross member Ts.

Les deux coulisses Co sont accolées aux montants verticaux Mv du dormant D. Une seule de ces coulisses est visible sur cette Fig. Elles sont conçues pour permettre le coulissement du tablier enroulé sur le tambour d'enroulement 310 en guidant les extrémités des lames qui le constituent.The two wings Co are contiguous to the uprights Mv of the frame D. Only one of these slides is visible in this FIG. They are designed to allow the sliding of the rolled apron on the winding drum 310 guiding the ends of the blades that constitute it.

Chaque coulisse Co est pourvue à la Fig. 2b d'un logement Lo adapté à recevoir l'extrémité libre d'une patte d'ancrage. Le logement Lo est disposé dans le fond de la coulisse Co pour que le tablier puisse coulisser entre les branches libres desdites coulisses.Each slide Co is provided in FIG. 2b of a housing Lo adapted to receive the free end of an anchor lug. The housing Lo is arranged in the bottom of the slide Co so that the apron can slide between the free branches of said slides.

Le montage du coffre-tunnel 100 est de préférence réalisé en usine et de la manière suivante. A la Fig. 2a, on fait descendre suivant un mouvement combiné les pattes d'ancrage 410 dans les extrémités libres des coulisses Co comme le montre la flèche F1 et l'on tourne le coffre-tunnel 100 suivant la flèche F2 de manière à ce que la languette 420 puisse être tenue dans le logement 430. On peut ainsi livrer la fenêtre ou la porte équipée de son coffre-tunnel.The mounting of tunnel box 100 is preferably done in the factory and in the following manner. In FIG. 2a, the anchoring lugs 410 are lowered in a combined movement in the free ends of the wings Co as shown by the arrow F1 and the tunnel box 100 is turned according to the arrow F2 so that the tongue 420 can be held in the housing 430. It can thus deliver the window or door equipped with its tunnel box.

A la Fig. 3, l'ensemble comprenant le coffre-tunnel 100, le dormant D de l'huisserie ainsi que les coulisses Co est installé suivant les règles de l'art dans une embrasure E réalisée dans un mur M. On réalise ensuite les finitions. Pour cela, on introduit un liant Li tel que du ciment entre le mur M et la paroi de voûte 206 du caisson 200 pour le solidariser également au mur M. On applique un enduit Ep de protection sur la paroi du caisson tournée vers l'extérieur. On dépose encore du plâtre Pl présenté sous la forme de plaques contre la paroi interne du mur M par-dessus un isolant Is et de manière à masquer le caisson 200.In FIG. 3, the assembly comprising the tunnel box 100, the frame D of the frame and the slides Co is installed according to the rules of art in an embrasure E made in a wall M. The finishing is then carried out. For this, a binder Li such as cement is introduced between the wall M and the arch wall 206 of the box 200 to also secure it to the wall M. A protective coating Ep is applied to the wall of the box facing outwards. . Plaster Pl is still deposited in the form of plates against the inner wall of the wall M over an insulator Is and so as to mask the casing 200.

Le coffre-tunnel de l'invention peut de la sorte être fixé simplement et de manière efficace sur le dormant d'une huisserie. Son montage sur le dormant est avantageusement réalisé en usineThe tunnel box of the invention can thus be simply and effectively fastened to the frame of a frame. Its mounting on the frame is advantageously done in the factory

Dans une variante de réalisation représentée à la Fig. 4, le coffre-tunnel 100 est toujours pourvu d'un moyen de fixation 400' comprenant une paire de pattes d'ancrage 410 montées respectivement de manière articulée sur les deux joues 300, mais celui-ci ne comporte plus de languette. Le caisson 200 est pourvu en revanche sur sa paroi de voûte 206 d'une butée 450. Celle-ci est constituée à cette Fig. d'un profilé de section triangulaire fixé, de préférence par collage sur ladite paroi de voûte 206.In an alternative embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the tunnel trunk 100 is always provided with a fastening means 400 'comprising a pair of anchoring lugs 410 respectively hingedly mounted on the two cheeks 300, but it no longer has a tongue. On the other hand, the casing 200 is provided on its arch wall 206 with a stop 450. This is constituted in this FIG. a section of fixed triangular section, preferably by gluing on said arch wall 206.

Dans cette construction le coffre-tunnel 100 n'est plus monté en usine mais est monté en cours de pose de la fenêtre dans l'embrasure.In this construction the tunnel box 100 is no longer factory mounted but is mounted during the installation of the window in the recess.

A la Fig. 5, on a monté les pattes d'ancrage 410 du coffre-tunnel 100 dans les coulisses Co. A cette Fig. 5, l'ensemble comprenant le coffre-tunnel 100, le dormant D de l'huisserie ainsi que les coulisses Co est en cours de pose dans l'embrasure E. Pour cela on a placé au préalable le pied du dormant D sur la paroi inférieure de l'embrasure E, puis on fait basculer l'ensemble suivant un arc matérialisé par la flèche F3 pour l'encastrer dans ladite embrasure. On remarquera que le coffre-tunnel 100 est basculé légèrement vers l'avant autour de ses articulations 412 pendant cette opération de manière à ce que sa partie la plus saillante puisse passer sous la paroi supérieure Ps de l'embrasure E. Ce basculement est matérialisé par la flèche F4.In FIG. 5, the anchor tabs 410 of the tunnel box 100 were mounted in the wings. In this FIG. 5, the assembly comprising the tunnel box 100, the frame D of the frame as well as the slides CC is being placed in the recess E. For this we placed beforehand the foot of the frame D on the wall bottom of the recess E, then we rock the assembly following an arc materialized by the arrow F3 to embed it in said embrasure. It will be noted that the tunnel box 100 is tilted slightly forwards around its hinges 412 during this operation so that its most protruding part can pass under the upper wall Ps of the embrasure E. This tilting is materialized by the arrow F4.

A la Fig. 6, l'ensemble est monté dans l'embrasure E. Pendant le mouvement de basculement de l'ensemble, le caisson 200 a été mis en butée contre la paroi intérieure du mur M, par l'intermédiaire de sa butée 450, pour le redresser. La butée 450 est positionnée de sorte que la branche destinée à être tournée vers l'extérieur du mur M, ici la seconde branche 204, soit placée pratiquement à l'aplomb de la paroi extérieure du mur M.In FIG. 6, the assembly is mounted in the recess E. During the tilting movement of the assembly, the box 200 has been abutted against the inner wall of the wall M, via its stop 450, for the straighten. Stop 450 is positioned so that the branch intended to be turned towards the outside of the wall M, here the second branch 204, is placed substantially in line with the outer wall of the wall M.

On réalise ensuite les finitions. Pour cela, on introduit un liant Li tel que du ciment entre le mur M et la paroi de voûte 206 du caisson 200 pour le solidariser également au mur M. On applique un enduit Ep de protection sur la paroi du caisson tournée vers l'extérieur. On dépose encore du plâtre Pl présenté sous la forme de plaques contre la paroi interne du mur M par-dessus un isolant Is de manière à masquer le caisson 200.We then realize the finishes. For this, a binder Li such as cement is introduced between the wall M and the arch wall 206 of the box 200 to also secure it to the wall M. A protective coating Ep is applied to the wall of the box facing outwards. . Plaster Pl is still deposited in the form of plates against the inner wall of the wall M over an insulator Is so as to mask the casing 200.

On remarquera que compte tenu du basculement du coffre-tunnel 100 pendant le montage de l'ensemble dans l'embrasure E, l'espace entre la paroi supérieure du mur M et la paroi supérieure du caisson 200 peut être réduit si bien que l'épaisseur e de la couche de liant Li est plus faible que dans un assemblage incorporant un coffre-tunnel de l'art antérieur, procurant ainsi une meilleure fixation du caisson avec le mur M.It will be noted that, in view of the tilting of the tunnel box 100 during assembly of the assembly in the recess E, the space between the upper wall of the wall M and the upper wall of the box 200 can be reduced so that the Thickness e of the binder layer Li is lower than in an assembly incorporating a tunnel box of the prior art, thus providing better fixing of the box with the wall M.

Le montage du coffre-tunnel sur le dormant est avantageusement réalisé pendant la pose de celui-ci dans l'embrasure.The mounting of the tunnel box on the frame is advantageously carried out during the installation thereof in the recess.

Aux Figs. 2a et 5 l'huisserie est déjà pourvue, avant sa pose, d'un ouvrant Ov. Dans ces conditions le réglage du dormant dans l'embrasure est simplifié puisqu'il n'est plus nécessaire de procéder au réglage de sa planéité.In Figs. 2a and 5 the frame is already provided, before its installation, an opening ov. In these conditions the adjustment of the frame in the doorway is simplified since it is no longer necessary to adjust its flatness.
