Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cremone bolt formed with a shell of plastic material, but having internal metal mechanisms.
  • cremone bolt systems for operating closure/opening of door and window frames or fixtures has been known since long.
  • they comprise a handle, an external shell and driving elements suitable for moving corresponding rods for closing/opening the fixture.
  • a motion-transmitting mechanism from the handle to the driving elements is accommodated inside the external shell.
  • IT 1 179 273 An example of this kind of devices is disclosed by IT 1 179 273 .
  • cremone bolts known in the art are usually fully made of die-cast metal. This involves large investments for equipping the dies for producing these articles of manufacture made of die-cast metal, also due to the continuous requirements of offering new aesthetic solutions on the market. In addition, the metal parts need to be surface-treated by appropriate painting processes, which brings about a further increase in the manufacturing costs.
  • cremone bolts fully made of plastic material. These solutions however have limits in terms of resistance to mechanical stresses generated by daily use, so that an appropriate lifetime is not ensured. To solve this drawback, the components' thickness is to be increased, but this can give rise to surface moulding faults due to shrinkage during the step of cooling the piece. In addition, with known plastic handles, there is the drawback that fastening to the fixture takes place inside the body of plastic material.
  • DE 3445170 A1 discloses a cremone bolt with an external shell made of plastic material. According to this solution, the efforts transmitted by the rack mechanism are discharged onto the plastic wall of said shell.
  • the present invention aims at obviating the above mentioned drawbacks by providing a cremone bolt that is of cheap manufacture and long lifetime.
  • Another aim of the invention is to provide a cremone bolt equipped with components that can be also used for cremone bolts of the known art.
  • Fig. 1 shown in Fig. 1 is a cremone bolt 11 designed to be applied to a fixture (a window frame, door frame or others) for operating closure/opening of same.
  • the cremone bolt 11 comprises a rotatable handle 12, two movable driving elements for opening/closing the fixture 13, 14 and a motion-transmitting mechanism from the handle to the driving element.
  • This mechanism comprises a toothed rotor 17 integral with handle 12 and suitable for engagement with two racks 18, 19, each of them being integral with a respective driving element 13, 14.
  • the driving elements are connected in use to suitable rods mounted along the fixture section bars to operate the closing/opening movement of known elements suitable for engagement with the fixed frame of the fixture.
  • the cremone bolt 11 is provided with an external shell 15 defining a cavity 16 inside which the components 17, 18, 19 of the motion-transmitting mechanism are housed.
  • the external shell 15 has an elongated shape, its major extension being parallel to the sliding direction of the at least one driving element.
  • the external shell 15 of the cremone bolt is made of plastic, while the rotor 17 and racks 18, 19 are made of metal.
  • the driving elements 13, 14 too are advantageously made of metal.
  • the outer shell 15 forms a hole for receiving the rod of rotor 17 fastened to the cremone bolt handle.
  • Cavity 16 defined by the external shell 15 is open on the side facing the fixture section bar in use.
  • the cremone bolt also comprises a cover 20 to be fastened to shell 15 to close the opening of cavity 16 at least partly.
  • Cover 20 is made of metal, advantageously with a body in the form of a plate.
  • each rib 40, 41 constitutes a holding and guide element for a respective rack 18, 19, being disposed on the opposite side of the rack relative to rotor 17, interposed between the rack and the external shell. Due to this expedient, the side wall of the external shell 15 will not be adversely affected by the efforts transmitted by the rack 18, 19 during opening/closing of the cremone bolt.
  • racks 18, 19 are almost in contact with opposite side walls of the cavity 16 of the external shell 15. This allows bulkiness of the cremone bolt in a direction transverse to the movement direction of the racks to be limited.
  • racks 18, 19 can be made with standard sizes to be also used in normal cremone bolts fully made of metal, since they are not to be inserted in a metal box of reduced sizes as it happened in the known art involving an external shell made of plastic material applied to the metal box by snap fixing.
  • Rack 18 as shown in Fig. 1 , comprises a sequence of teeth 34 for meshing with the rotor and on the opposite side is provided with a sequence of teeth 35 too, for engagement with rib 40 projecting from cover 20.
  • Rack 19 has the same structure.
  • the cremone bolt comprises a pair of metal inserts 21, 22, suitable for fastening to the inside of cavity 16 at two opposite ends of the external shell. Formed in the inserts are holes 28, 29 for fastening of the cremone bolt to the section bar of the fixture.
  • Inserts 21, 22 are also provided with holes 31 and 32 respectively, for fastening of cover 20 to the external shell. Holes 32 are in register with holes 37 on cover 20, while holes 31 are in register with holes 38 on the cover.
  • the external shell comprises consoles 24, 25 suitable for engagement with respective seats 26, 27 formed in inserts 21, 22 for fitting of the inserts on the shell.
  • Consoles 24, 25 (only two consoles are shown in the figure, but consoles are also formed on the opposite side for a total amount of four consoles) form an undercut in which the inserts are engaged, so that the latter cannot come out of cavity 16 in shell 15.
  • shell 15 could be moulded on said inserts 21, 22.
  • the external shell 15 consists of two pieces, a first piece 15a forming the external casing in sight of the cremone bolt, while the second piece 23 forms the seat for receiving rotor 17 and is disposed on the bottom of cavity 16.
  • Piece 23 embodies a guide surface for the rack on the bottom of cavity 16.
  • Advantageously formed in said guide surface are two ribs 33 (only one shown in Fig. 1 , the latter being a mirror image of the former), on opposite sides relative to rotor 17, jutting out towards the inside of cavity 16, parallel to the sliding direction of the driving elements 13, 14.
  • Each rib 33 is associated with a corresponding groove 54, 55 in a respective rack 18, 19 (see Figs. 3 and 4 ).
  • Ribs 33 are suitable for engagement into the grooves in the racks so as to promote correct running of same during the closing/opening movement.
  • Cover 20 is also provided with a central rib 50 (shown in Fig. 4 ) jutting out towards the inside of cavity 16, said rib being suitable for engagement into a groove 51 of the driving element parallel to the sliding direction thereof. This expedient too allows guiding of racks 18, 19 to be improved.
  • the driving elements 13, 14 are L-shaped. Referring to element 14 in Fig. 3 , a leg 14b is located at the inside of cavity 16 and is adapted to engage a respective rack 19. The second leg 14a projects outwardly of the cavity through a slot 36 in cover 20. The driving element 13 is shaped in the same manner as element 14.
  • Each rack 18, 19 comprises a planar portion at its ends close to the ends of the external shell 15, in which planar portion a hole is formed for engagement with a corresponding projection of the driving element. Shown in Fig. 3 is projection 53 of the driving element 14 that will engage in hole 39 of rack 19.
  • a cremone bolt which is made of materials enabling the production costs of same to be reduced.
  • the cremone bolt can have a different aesthetic appearance by merely changing the external shell made of plastic.
  • the cremone bolt has a satisfactory lifetime since the inner components of the mechanism are made of metal. These components have standard sizes, since they are not to be inserted in holding metal boxes of reduced sizes, and therefore they can also be used for assembling normal cremone bolts fully made of metal. This allows the production costs to be further reduced, thanks to economies of scale.
  • cremone bolt could also be provided with only one rack and not two racks as shown in the preferred embodiment of the invention.
