Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de guidage d'un portail, ainsi qu'un portail équipé d'un tel dispositif de guidage.The present invention relates to a device for guiding a gate, and a gate equipped with such a guiding device.

Un tel dispositif de guidage est connu du document FR 2 843 993 A1 , qui divulgue les caractérisques du préambule de la revendication 1.Such a guiding device is known from the document FR 2 843 993 A1 which discloses the features of the preamble of claim 1.

On connaît un portail se déplaçant horizontalement dans un plan vertical lors de son ouverture et de sa fermeture. Le portail comprend un tablier monté sur une poutre inférieure prenant la forme d'un profilé creux, rectangulaire et ouvert vers le bas. Afin de guider le portail lors de son déplacement, deux dispositifs de guidage sont disposés à distance l'un de l'autre. Chaque dispositif de guidage comprend une base fixée au sol et un ensemble de galets monté sur un mât solidaire de la base. Chaque galet est monté libre en rotation sur la base et est disposé à l'intérieur de la poutre inférieure afin de la guider. Pour guider au mieux le portail, les dispositifs de guidage sont disposés de manière à être toujours en prise avec la poutre inférieure, et ceci quelle que soit la position du portail.A gate is known to move horizontally in a vertical plane when it is opened and closed. The gate comprises an apron mounted on a lower beam in the form of a hollow profile, rectangular and open downward. In order to guide the gate during its movement, two guiding devices are arranged at a distance from one another. Each guiding device comprises a base attached to the ground and a set of rollers mounted on a mast integral with the base. Each roller is rotatably mounted on the base and is disposed within the lower beam to guide it. To best guide the gate, the guiding devices are arranged to be always in engagement with the lower beam, and this regardless of the position of the gate.

Lors de la fermeture du portail, l'extrémité du tablier se réceptionne dans un montant vertical. Du fait des imprécisions lors du montage du portail, il arrive que l'extrémité du tablier ne se réceptionne pas correctement dans le montant. Pour remédier à ce problème, au moins l'un des dispositifs de guidage, en particulier le dispositif de guidage le plus éloigné du montant, est réglable.When closing the gate, the end of the deck is received in a vertical amount. Due to inaccuracies when mounting the gate, it happens that the end of the deck does not receive properly in the amount. To remedy this problem, at least one of the guiding devices, in particular the guiding device furthest from the upright, is adjustable.

Afin de réaliser ce réglage, le dispositif de guidage comprend une première plaque fixée sur la base et une deuxième plaque fixée sur la première plaque. Le mât qui porte les galets est alors solidaire de la deuxième plaque.In order to achieve this adjustment, the guiding device comprises a first plate fixed on the base and a second plate fixed on the first plate. The mast which carries the rollers is then secured to the second plate.

Pour permettre un réglage transversal par rapport au plan du tablier, la première plaque est percée de quatre trous oblongs disposés transversalement à ce plan. La fixation de la première plaque sur la base est réalisée par l'intermédiaire de vis. Chaque vis traverse l'un des trous oblongs et se visse dans la base. Le réglage s'effectue alors de la façon suivante : les vis sont positionnées dans les trous oblongs et sont légèrement vissées dans la base, le réglage transversal de la première plaque est effectué à la main, puis les quatre vis sont serrées à fond afin de maintenir la première plaque.To allow a transverse adjustment relative to the plane of the deck, the first plate is pierced with four oblong holes arranged transversely to this plane. The fixing of the first plate on the base is carried out by means of screws. Each screw passes through one of the oblong holes and screws into the base. The adjustment is then made as follows: the screws are positioned in the oblong holes and are slightly screwed into the base, the transverse adjustment of the first plate is done by hand, then the four screws are tightened to the bottom to maintain the first plate.

Pour permettre un réglage vertical, la deuxième plaque est fixée à la première plaque par l'intermédiaire de quatre tiges filetées et de huit écrous. Chaque tige filetée est fixée dans un trou fileté de la première plaque, puis sur chaque tige filetée est vissé un premier écrou, puis la deuxième plaque est emmanchée sur les quatre tiges filetées et positionnée sur les quatre premiers écrous, et, enfin, sur chaque tige filetée est vissé un deuxième écrou. La deuxième plaque est ainsi prise en sandwich entre les quatre premiers écrous et les quatre deuxièmes écrous. Le réglage de la hauteur des galets s'effectue alors par vissage et dévissage des huit écrous.To allow vertical adjustment, the second plate is attached to the first plate by means of four threaded rods and eight nuts. Each threaded rod is fixed in a threaded hole of the first plate, then on each threaded rod is screwed a first nut, then the second plate is fitted on the four threaded rods and positioned on the first four nuts, and finally on each Threaded rod is screwed a second nut. The second plate is thus sandwiched between the four first nuts and the four second nuts. The adjustment of the height of the rollers is then done by screwing and unscrewing the eight nuts.

Ces différents réglages ne sont pas faciles à réaliser.These different settings are not easy to achieve.

En particulier, le réglage transversal n'est pas stable puisque le serrage final des vis peut engendrer un déplacement de la première plaque et donc un déréglage du dispositif de guidage.In particular, the transverse adjustment is not stable since the final tightening of the screws can cause a displacement of the first plate and thus a maladjustment of the guide device.

Le réglage vertical est difficile à réaliser puisqu'il est nécessaire de manipuler huit écrous pour parvenir à optimiser ce réglage.The vertical adjustment is difficult to achieve since it is necessary to manipulate eight nuts to optimize this setting.

La Fig. 1 représente un portail 100 comprenant un tablier 104 monté sur une poutre inférieure 102. Le portail 100 est mobile horizontalement dans le plan du tablier 104 pour s'ouvrir et se fermer. Lors de la fermeture du portail 100, l'extrémité libre du tablier 104 vient se loger dans un montant vertical.The Fig. 1 represents a gate 100 comprising an apron 104 mounted on a lower beam 102. The gate 100 is movable horizontally in the plane of the deck 104 to open and close. When closing the gate 100, the free end of the deck 104 is housed in a vertical upright.

Pour assurer le guidage de la poutre inférieure 102 lors de son déplacement, deux dispositifs de guidage 200 et 300 sont disposés à l'intérieur de la poutre inférieure 102. Chaque dispositif de guidage 200, 300 peut être un dispositif de guidage conforme à l'invention telle qu'elle est décrite ci-après, mais il est également possible qu'un seul d'entre eux le soit. L'autre, et en particulier le dispositif de guidage 300, c'est-à-dire le plus proche du montant, peut être fixe et non réglable. Le dispositif de guidage 300 non réglable comprend alors classiquement une base fixée au sol et un ensemble de galets monté sur un mât solidaire de la base.In order to guide the lower beam 102 as it moves, two guiding devices 200 and 300 are arranged inside the lower beam 102. Each guiding device 200, 300 may be a guiding device in accordance with FIG. invention as described below, but it is also possible that only one of them is. The other, and in particular the guiding device 300, that is to say the closest to the amount, can be fixed and not adjustable. The non-adjustable guide device 300 then conventionally comprises a base fixed to the ground and a set of rollers mounted on a mast integral with the base.

La Fig. 2 représente le dispositif de guidage 200 selon l'invention.The Fig. 2 represents the guiding device 200 according to the invention.

Le dispositif de guidage 200 comprend une base 202, un dispositif de réglage transversal 206, un dispositif de réglage vertical 208 et un ensemble de galets 204.The guiding device 200 comprises a base 202, a transverse adjustment device 206, a vertical adjustment device 208 and a set of rollers 204.

Comme cela est mieux vu sur la Fig. 5a qui est une vue du dispositif de guidage 200 dans l'axe de la poutre inférieure 102, l'ensemble de galets 204 est monté à l'intérieur de la poutre inférieure 102 afin de coopérer avec le portail 100 lors de son déplacement. Afin d'assurer le guidage de la poutre inférieure 102, l'ensemble de galets 204 comprend des galets verticaux 212, des galets horizontaux 210 et un châssis 214. Les galets verticaux 212 et les galets horizontaux 210 sont montés sur le châssis 214 et viennent rouler sur les parois intérieures de la poutre inférieure 102.As is best seen on the Fig. 5a which is a view of the guide device 200 in the axis of the lower beam 102, the set of rollers 204 is mounted inside the lower beam 102 to cooperate with the gate 100 during its movement. In order to ensure the guidance of the lower beam 102, the roller assembly 204 comprises vertical rollers 212, horizontal rollers 210 and a frame 214. The vertical rollers 212 and the horizontal rollers 210 are mounted on the frame 214 and come roll on the inner walls of the lower beam 102.

La base 202 est ici constituée d'une plaque qui se fixe au sol par l'intermédiaire de vis qui traversent des trous 216 de la base 202 prévus à cet effet.The base 202 is constituted by a plate which is fixed to the ground by means of screws passing through holes 216 of the base 202 provided for this purpose.

Le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 est fixé à la base 202 et permet de réaliser un réglage de l'ensemble de galets 204 perpendiculairement au plan du tablier 104. La fixation du dispositif de réglage transversal 206 sur la base 202 s'effectue par l'intermédiaire de quatre vis de solidarisation 222 qui se vissent dans la base 202, dans des trous prévus à cet effet. A cette fin, le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 est ici formé d'une plaque 224a, 224b (Fig. 3) qui est percée de quatre trous oblongs de réglage 220 traversés par les vis de solidarisation 222. Les surfaces planes des trous oblongs de réglage 220 sont parallèles à la direction transversale, c'est-à-dire perpendiculaires au plan du tablier 104.The transverse adjustment device 206 is fixed to the base 202 and makes it possible to adjust the set of rollers 204 perpendicular to the plane of the deck 104. The fixing of the transverse adjustment device 206 on the base 202 is effected by the intermediate four fastening screws 222 which are screwed into the base 202, in holes provided for this purpose. For this purpose, the transverse adjustment device 206 is here formed of a plate 224a, 224b ( Fig. 3 ) which is pierced by four oblong adjustment holes 220 traversed by the fastening screws 222. The flat surfaces of the oblong adjustment holes 220 are parallel to the transverse direction, that is to say perpendicular to the plane of the deck 104.

Le dispositif de réglage vertical 208 se fixe sur le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 et réalise un réglage vertical de l'ensemble de galets 204. A cet effet, comme cela est mieux vu sur la Fig. 4, le dispositif de réglage vertical 208 comprend un socle 306 et un mât 308. Le socle 306 est prévu pour se fixer sur le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 et il est mobile en rotation par rapport au dispositif de réglage transversal 206 autour d'un axe sensiblement vertical. Le mât 308 comprend une base 546 et son extrémité supérieure est fixée à l'ensemble de galets 204. La base 546 et le socle 306 forment une liaison hélicoïdale d'axe vertical.The vertical adjustment device 208 is fixed on the transverse adjustment device 206 and makes a vertical adjustment of the set of rollers 204. For this purpose, as is better seen on the Fig. 4 the vertical adjusting device 208 comprises a base 306 and a mast 308. The base 306 is provided for attachment to the transverse adjustment device 206 and is rotatable relative to the transverse adjustment device 206 about an axis. substantially vertical. The mast 308 comprises a base 546 and its upper end is attached to the roller assembly 204. The base 546 and the base 306 form a helical connection with a vertical axis.

Afin de permettre un débattement angulaire du châssis 214, la fixation du mât 308 à l'ensemble de galets 204 s'effectue au travers d'une liaison pivot d'axe sensiblement orthogonal au plan du tablier 104. A cette fin, l'extrémité supérieure du mât 308 prend la forme d'un étrier percé de deux trous 310 coaxiaux dont l'axe est sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan du tablier 104 et qui permettent la mise en place d'un axe entre le mât 308 et le châssis 214.In order to allow an angular displacement of the frame 214, the attachment of the mast 308 to the set of rollers 204 is effected through a pivot connection axis substantially orthogonal to the plane of the deck 104. To this end, the end upper mast 308 takes the form of a stirrup pierced by two coaxial holes 310 whose axis is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the deck 104 and which allow the establishment of an axis between the mast 308 and the frame 214.

La Fig. 3 représente une vue éclatée d'un mode de réalisation du dispositif de réglage transversal 206 selon l'invention.The Fig. 3 represents an exploded view of an embodiment of the transverse adjustment device 206 according to the invention.

Le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 est constitué d'une plaque 224a, 224b percée d'un trou nervuré 450 qui permet la mise en place du socle 306. La circonférence du trou nervuré 450 comporte une nervure 404 qui vient s'insérer dans une rainure d'emmanchement 312 du socle 306. Cette insertion permet le maintien du socle 306 et donc du dispositif de réglage vertical 208 sur le dispositif de réglage transversal 206. En outre, la forme générale circulaire du trou nervuré 450 et du socle 306 autorise une libre rotation du socle 306 et donc du dispositif de réglage vertical 208 autour de l'axe vertical. La rainure d'emmanchement 312 se trouve de préférence dans un plan horizontal.The transverse adjustment device 206 consists of a plate 224a, 224b pierced with a ribbed hole 450 which allows the base 306 to be put in place. The circumference of the ribbed hole 450 comprises a rib 404 which is inserted into a groove. 306 and thus the vertical adjustment device 208 on the transverse adjustment device 206. In addition, the general circular shape of the ribbed hole 450 and the base 306 allows a free rotation of the base 306 and thus of the vertical adjustment device 208 around the vertical axis. The fitting groove 312 is preferably in a horizontal plane.

Pour permettre une mise en place aisée du socle 306 dans le trou nervuré 450, la plaque constituant le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 est formée de deux pièces symétriques 224a et 224b. Chaque pièce symétrique 224a, 224b a une forme générale de parallélépipède dont l'une des faces est arrondie pour former une partie de la circonférence du trou nervure 450. Les deux pièces symétriques 224a et 224b sont solidarisées l'une à l'autre grâce à deux languettes 402a et 402b, chacune d'elles étant fixée simultanément aux deux pièces symétriques 224a et 224b par l'intermédiaire de vis de fixation 406.To allow easy placement of the base 306 in the ribbed hole 450, the plate constituting the transverse adjustment device 206 is formed of two symmetrical parts 224a and 224b. Each symmetrical part 224a, 224b has a general parallelepiped shape, one of whose faces is rounded to form a part of the circumference of the rib hole 450. The two symmetrical parts 224a and 224b are secured to one another by means of two tabs 402a and 402b, each of them being fixed simultaneously to the two symmetrical parts 224a and 224b by means of fixing screws 406.

Chaque pièce symétrique 224a, 224b comprend ici deux trous oblongs de réglage 220 dans le prolongement de chacun desquels est réalisé un trou débouchant de réglage prévu pour recevoir une vis de réglage 218. L'axe de chaque trou débouchant de réglage est parallèle aux surfaces planes du trou oblong de réglage 220 correspondant et il débouche à la fois à l'intérieur du trou oblong de réglage 220 et à l'extérieur de la pièce symétrique 224a, 224b considérée. De préférence, chaque trou débouchant de réglage est centré par rapport au trou oblong de réglage 220 correspondant.Each symmetrical part 224a, 224b here comprises two oblong adjustment holes 220 in the extension of each of which is formed an opening opening hole designed to receive a set screw 218. The axis of each opening opening hole is parallel to the flat surfaces corresponding oblong hole 220 setting and it opens both inside the oblong hole adjustment 220 and outside the symmetrical part 224a, 224b considered. Preferably, each opening opening hole is centered relative to the corresponding oblong hole setting 220.

D'une manière plus générale, le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 comprend :

  • la plaque 224a, 224b percée d'au, moins deux trous de réglage oblongs 220. dont les surfaces planes sont perpendiculaires au plan du tablier 104,
  • pour chaque trou de réglage 220, une vis de solidarisation 222 qui est prévue pour se visser dans la base 202 en traversant le trou de réglage 220 correspondant,
  • pour chaque vis de solidarisation 222, une vis de réglage 218 qui se visse dans un trou de la plaque 224a, 224b, débouchant dans le trou de réglage 220 correspondant, de manière à ce que, d'une part, au moins l'une des vis de réglage 218 vienne en pression à gauche contre la vis de solidarisation 222 correspondante par rapport à un plan parallèle au plan du tablier 104 passant par l'axe de ladite vis de solidarisation 222 et, d'autre part, au moins une autre vis de réglage 218 vienne en pression à droite contre la vis de solidarisation 222 correspondante par rapport à un plan parallèle au plan du tablier 104 passant par l'axe de ladite vis de solidarisation 222.
More generally, the transverse adjustment device 206 comprises:
  • the plate 224a, 224b pierced with at least two oblong adjustment holes 220 whose flat surfaces are perpendicular to the plane of the deck 104,
  • for each adjusting hole 220, a securing screw 222 which is provided for screwing into the base 202 through the corresponding adjustment hole 220,
  • for each fastening screw 222, a set screw 218 which screws into a hole of the plate 224a, 224b, opening into the corresponding adjusting hole 220, so that, on the one hand, at least one adjusting screws 218 come into pressure on the left against the securing screw 222 corresponding to a plane parallel to the plane of the deck 104 passing through the axis of said securing screw 222 and, on the other hand, at least one other Adjusting screw 218 comes into pressure on the right against the securing screw 222 corresponding to a plane parallel to the plane of the deck 104 passing through the axis of said securing screw 222.

Bien que l'invention puisse fonctionner avec deux trous de réglage oblongs 220, il est préférable d'utiliser quatre trous de réglage oblongs 220 comme cela est décrit ci-dessus. Cela permet d'équilibrer le positionnement de l'ensemble de galets 204, en particulier les quatre trous de réglage oblongs 220 répartis de manière sensiblement symétrique par rapport au plan du tablier 104, d'une part, et par rapport à un plan perpendiculaire au plan du tablier 104, d'autre part.Although the invention can operate with two oblong adjustment holes 220, it is preferable to use four oblong adjustment holes 220 as described above. This makes it possible to balance the positioning of the set of rollers 204, in particular the four oblong adjustment holes 220 distributed substantially symmetrically with respect to the plane of the deck 104, on the one hand, and with respect to a plane perpendicular to the deck plane 104, on the other hand.

Le réglage transversal s'effectue alors de la façon suivante.The transverse adjustment is then carried out as follows.

Après que le dispositif de réglage vertical 208 ait été placé dans le dispositif de réglage transversal 206, celui-ci est placé sur la base 202 à laquelle il est fixé par les vis de solidarisation 222. Avant que les vis de solidarisation 222 ne soient vissées à fond, chaque vis de réglage 218 est insérée dans le trou débouchant de réglage correspondant. Chaque vis de réglage 218 est alors vissée de manière à venir en appui contre la vis de solidarisation 222 qui traverse le trou oblong de réglage 220 correspondant et de manière à ce que le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 soit placé dans la position désirée.After the vertical adjustment device 208 has been placed in the transverse adjustment device 206, it is placed on the base 202 to which it is fixed by the securing screws 222. Before the securing screws 222 are screwed thoroughly, each adjusting screw 218 is inserted into the corresponding setting through hole. Each adjustment screw 218 is then screwed so as to bear against the fastening screw 222 which passes through the corresponding oblong adjusting hole 220 and so that the transverse adjustment device 206 is placed in the desired position.

En effet, lorsqu'une vis de réglage 218 appuie contre une vis de solidarisation 222, le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 est déplacé en conséquence et la mise en butée des différentes vis de réglage 218 contre les vis de solidarisation 222 correspondantes permet de positionner correctement et de manière stable et précise le dispositif de réglage transversal 206.Indeed, when a set screw 218 bears against a fastening screw 222, the transverse adjustment device 206 is moved accordingly and the abutment of the various adjustment screws 218 against the corresponding fastening screws 222 makes it possible to position correctly and stably and accurately the transverse adjustment device 206.

Les vis de solidarisation 222 peuvent alors être serrées à fond sans que le réglage du dispositif de réglage transversal 206 ne soit perturbé.The securing screws 222 can then be fully tightened without the adjustment of the transverse adjustment device 206 being disturbed.

La Fig. 5a et la Fig. 5b représentent des exemples de positionnement du dispositif de réglage transversal 206.The Fig. 5a and the Fig. 5b are examples of positioning of the transverse adjustment device 206.

Sur la Fig. 5a, les vis de réglage 218 sont vissées de manière à ce que le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 soit centré et sur la Fig. 5b, les vis de réglage 218 sont vissées de manière à ce que le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 soit décalé vers la droite d'une distance "db". Dans ce deuxième exemple, les vis de réglage 218 de gauche sont plus vissées que les vis de réglage 218 de droite et les vis de réglage 218 de droite sont par conséquent plus dévissées que les vis de réglage 218 de gauche.On the Fig. 5a the adjusting screws 218 are screwed in such a way that the transverse adjustment device 206 is centered and on the Fig. 5b the adjusting screws 218 are screwed in such a way that the transverse adjustment device 206 is shifted to the right by a distance "db". In this second example, the left adjustment screws 218 are screwed more than the right adjustment screws 218 and the right adjustment screws 218 are therefore more unscrewed than the left adjustment screws 218.

La Fig. 4 représente une vue éclatée d'un mode de réalisation particulier du dispositif de réglage verticale 208.The Fig. 4 represents an exploded view of a particular embodiment of the vertical adjustment device 208.

Le socle 306 comprend un fût 516 d'axe sensiblement vertical et un premier moyen de liaison 518 de même axe que celui du fût 516. La base 546 comprend un deuxième moyen de liaison 550 de même axe que celui du fût 516, et le premier moyen de liaison 518 et le deuxième moyen de liaison 550 forment la liaison hélicoïdale d'axe vertical.The base 306 comprises a shaft 516 of substantially vertical axis and a first connecting means 518 having the same axis as that of the shaft 516. The base 546 comprises a second connecting means 550 of the same axis as the shaft 516, and the first connecting means 518 and the second connecting means 550 form the vertical axis helical connection.

Le premier moyen de liaison 518 se présente ici sous la forme d'une tige filetée et le deuxième moyen de liaison 550 se présente ici sous la forme d'un trou taraudé.The first connecting means 518 is here in the form of a threaded rod and the second connecting means 550 is here in the form of a threaded hole.

Le fut 516 est de préférence cylindrique.The was 516 is preferably cylindrical.

Le socle 306 comprend également ici une semelle 506 qui se présente sous la forme d'un disque dont le diamètre est supérieur au diamètre du fût 516 afin de réaliser la rainure d'emmanchement 312.The base 306 also includes here a sole 506 which is in the form of a disk whose diameter is greater than the diameter of the barrel 516 in order to make the fitting groove 312.

Pour limiter l'encombrement du dispositif de réglage vertical 208, le fût 516 est creux et ses dimensions intérieures sont supérieures aux dimensions extérieures de ladite base 546. Cette configuration permet à la base 546 de pénétrer dans le fût 516 lorsqu'elle se déplace.To limit the size of the vertical adjustment device 208, the barrel 516 is hollow and its internal dimensions are greater than the outer dimensions of said base 546. This configuration allows the base 546 to enter the barrel 516 as it moves.

Le fait que la base 546 soit à l'intérieur du fût 516 permet également d'avoir un accès aisé au fût 516 afin de le faire tourner.The fact that the base 546 is inside the barrel 516 also allows easy access to the barrel 516 to rotate it.

Ici, le fût 516 se présente sous la forme d'un cylindre creux qui s'étend à partir de la semelle 506. La tige filetée 518 est concentrique avec le fût 516 et s'étend à partir de la semelle 506. Un espace libre 532 s'étend donc entre la tige filetée 518 et la paroi intérieure du fût 516 et la base 546 pénètre dans l'espace libre 532 et se visse sur la tige filetée 518.Here, the barrel 516 is in the form of a hollow cylinder which extends from the sole 506. The threaded rod 518 is concentric with the barrel 516 and extends from the sole 506. A free space 532 thus extends between the threaded rod 518 and the inner wall of the barrel 516 and the base 546 enters the free space 532 and is screwed onto the threaded rod 518.

Ici, la base 546 du mât 308 se présente sous la forme d'un cylindre dont le diamètre est inférieur au diamètre intérieur du fût 516 et qui présente un trou taraudé prévu pour recevoir la tige filetée 518.Here, the base 546 of the mast 308 is in the form of a cylinder whose diameter is smaller than the inside diameter of the barrel 516 and which has a threaded hole provided for receiving the threaded rod 518.

Le fût 516 présente sur sa périphérie des trous 534 qui s'étendent radialement et qui sont prévus pour recevoir des vis de blocage 512 (Fig. 5a) qui servent de moyens d'arrêt en rotation pour arrêter la rotation du socle 306.The barrel 516 has on its periphery holes 534 which extend radially and which are provided to receive locking screws 512 ( Fig. 5a ) which serve as rotation stop means for stopping the rotation of the base 306.

Dans le mode de réalisation de l'invention représenté sur la Fig. 4, le mât 308 comprend sa base 546 et une plaque intermédiaire 504 qui vient solidariser la base 546 et la partie supérieure du mât 308 qui forme l'étrier.In the embodiment of the invention shown in the Fig. 4 the mast 308 comprises its base 546 and an intermediate plate 504 which joins the base 546 and the upper part of the mast 308 which forms the stirrup.

Bien sûr, dans un autre mode de réalisation non représenté, la tige filetée peut faire partie de la base 546 du mât 308 et le trou taraudé peut faire partie du socle 306.Of course, in another embodiment not shown, the threaded rod may be part of the base 546 of the mast 308 and the threaded hole may be part of the base 306.

Lorsque la semelle 506 est disposée sous la plaque 224a, 224b du dispositif de réglage transversal 206, elle est libre de tourner autour de l'axe de la tige filetée 518. Lorsque le trou taraudé de la base 546 du mât 308 et la tige filetée 518 sont en prise, une rotation du socle 306 dans un sens va faire monter le mât 308 et une rotation dans le sens inverse va le faire descendre.When the sole 506 is disposed under the plate 224a, 224b of the transverse adjustment device 206, it is free to rotate about the axis of the threaded rod 518. When the tapped hole of the base 546 of the mast 308 and the threaded rod 518 are engaged, a rotation of the base 306 in one direction will raise the mast 308 and a rotation in the opposite direction will make it go down.

Lorsque la position verticale désirée de l'ensemble de galets 204 est atteinte, les vis de blocage 512 sont serrées contre la paroi de la base 546 du mât 308 afin de bloquer sa rotation. Une vis de blocage 512 est suffisante, mais pour renforcer l'effet de blocage, il est préférable d'en utiliser plusieurs.When the desired vertical position of the roller assembly 204 is reached, the locking screws 512 are clamped against the wall of the base 546 of the mast 308 to block its rotation. A locking screw 512 is sufficient, but to enhance the locking effect, it is preferable to use several.

Bien sûr, tout autre type de moyen de blocage peut être utilisé pour empêcher la rotation du mât 308.Of course, any other type of locking means may be used to prevent rotation of the mast 308.

Le dispositif de réglage vertical 208 permet ainsi un réglage facile et précis et ne nécessite que la manoeuvre du fût 516 et le vissage des vis de blocage 512.The vertical adjustment device 208 thus allows an easy and precise adjustment and requires only the operation of the barrel 516 and the screwing of the locking screws 512.

La Fig. 6a représente un exemple dans lequel le dispositif de réglage vertical 208 est au plus bas et la Fig. 6b représente un exemple dans lequel le dispositif de réglage vertical 208 est dans une position médiane. Ces deux positions présentent une différence de hauteur "hb".The Fig. 6a represents an example in which the vertical adjustment device 208 is at the lowest and the Fig. 6b represents an example in which the vertical adjustment device 208 is in a median position. These two positions have a difference in height "hb".

Sur la Fig. 6a, la plaque intermédiaire 504 vient en butée contre le fût 516.On the Fig. 6a the intermediate plate 504 abuts the barrel 516.

Sur la Fig. 6b, la plaque intermédiaire 504 est soulevée par rapport au fût 516 et laisse apparaître la base 546.On the Fig. 6b the intermediate plate 504 is raised relative to the barrel 516 and reveals the base 546.

Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples et modes de réalisation décrits et représentés mais elle est susceptible de nombreuses variantes accessibles à l'homme de l'art.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the examples and embodiments described and shown, but it is capable of numerous variants accessible to those skilled in the art.

Le dispositif de réglage transversal 206 et le dispositif de réglage vertical 208 ont été décrits comme fonctionnant en combinaison mais ils peuvent être utilisés indépendamment l'un de l'autre.The transverse adjustment device 206 and the vertical adjustment device 208 have been described as operating in combination but they can be used independently of one another.

Le dispositif de guidage 200 de l'invention a été plus particulièrement décrit dans le cadre d'un portail ayant une poutre inférieure pour y loger ledit dispositif de guidage 200 mais il peut être utilisé avec d'autres types de portail.The guiding device 200 of the invention has been more particularly described in the context of a portal having a lower beam for accommodating said guiding device 200 but it can be used with other types of portal.
