Description
L'invention concerne un seuil de guidage pour ouvrant coulissant de porte ou fenêtre, sous forme d'un profilé comportant une rainure de guidage et des moyens de fermeture et d'étanchéité refermant au moins partiellement cette rainure, moyens constitués par un joint de recouvrement conçu apte à s'étendre au dessus de ladite rainure en prenant appui sur les bordures longitudinales de cette dernière, notamment après ouverture de l'ouvrant.The invention relates to a guiding threshold for sliding door or window opening, in the form of a profile comprising a guide groove and closing and sealing means at least partially closing this groove, means constituted by a lap joint designed adapted to extend above said groove by bearing on the longitudinal edges of the latter, especially after opening of the opening.
La présente invention concerne le domaine des systèmes de fermeture de bâtiment, plus particulièrement, celui des ouvrants coulissants de type porte de garage ou similaires.The present invention relates to the field of building closure systems, more particularly, that of sliding doors of the garage door type or the like.
Il existe différents systèmes d'ouverture pour portes de garage ou analogue, sachant que le système auquel s'attache la présente invention est le coulissement horizontal.There are different opening systems for garage doors or the like, knowing that the system to which the present invention is attached is the horizontal sliding.
Précisément, l'ouvrant d'une telle porte coulissante horizontale est maintenu, en partie supérieure, au moyen d'un rail fixé à hauteur du linteau de la porte. Très fréquemment, mais non exclusivement, l'ouvrant est suspendu à ce rail au travers de galets de roulement, tandis qu'en partie inférieure seul un guidage est assuré.Specifically, the opening of such a horizontal sliding door is maintained, in the upper part, by means of a rail fixed at the height of the lintel of the door. Very frequently, but not exclusively, the opening is suspended from this rail through rollers, while in the lower part only guidance is provided.
En réalité, une configuration inverse peut se rencontrer pour des ouvrants de grande taille. Dans ce cas, tout en étant guidé dans sa partie inférieure l'ouvrant repose au sol à l'aide de moyens de roulement adaptés. Dans ce cas, le rail à hauteur du linteau n'a qu'une fonction de maintien de l'ouvrant dans le plan vertical tout en assurant son guidage.In reality, an opposite configuration can be encountered for large openings. In this case, while being guided in its lower part the opening rests on the ground using suitable rolling means. In this case, the rail at the lintel height has a function of maintaining the opening in the vertical plane while ensuring its guidance.
Quoi qu'il en soit, la fonction de guidage au sol est assurée au moyen d'un seuil sous forme d'un profilé comportant une rainure de forme générale en « U » à l'intérieur de laquelle peut stagner l'eau de pluie, mais aussi et surtout, des saletés susceptibles d'entraver le bon fonctionnement de la porte.In any case, the ground guidance function is provided by means of a threshold in the form of a profile having a generally U-shaped groove inside which can stagnate rainwater, but also and especially, dirt that could hinder the proper functioning of the door.
Pour cette raison, il est assez courant de concevoir les éléments de guidage associés à l'ouvrant et venant se déplacer dans le rail de telle manière qu'en cours d'ouverture et de fermeture, ils repoussent, naturellement, les saletés aux extrémités de la rainure du profilé. Pour en assurer l'évacuation, ce dernier peut être pourvu, à ses extrémités, d'ouvertures adaptées.For this reason, it is quite common to design the guide elements associated with the opening and coming to move in the rail in such a way that during opening and closing, they push, naturally, the dirt at the ends of the groove of the profile. To ensure the evacuation, the latter can be provided at its ends with suitable openings.
Pour limiter l'infiltration des saletés dans la rainure, il est connu d'équiper ce type de seuil de guidage pour porte coulissante de moyens de fermeture et d'étanchéité conçus aptes à refermer au moins partiellement ladite rainure et notamment après ouverture de l'ouvrant.In order to limit the infiltration of dirt into the groove, it is known to provide this type of guide threshold for a sliding door with means for closing and sealing designed to close at least partially said groove and in particular after opening the opening.
De tels moyens de fermeture et d'étanchéité empruntent habituellement la forme de balais venant s'étendre au-dessus de la rainure lorsque l'ouvrant se retire.Such closure and sealing means usually take the form of brushes extending above the groove when the opening withdraws.
Toutefois de tels balais n'empêchent pas les saletés de retomber dans la rainure sous l'influence du passage, notamment d'un véhicule au-dessus du seuil de la porte.However, such brushes do not prevent dirt from falling into the groove under the influence of the passage, including a vehicle above the threshold of the door.
En effet, les roues du véhicule ont tendance à repousser les gravillons entre les brins des balais. Il est également très fréquent que les saletés accumulées au-dessus des balais pendant la période d'ouverture de la porte retombent dans la rainure sous l'influence de la fermeture de l'ouvrant.Indeed, the wheels of the vehicle tend to push the chippings between the strands of the brushes. It is also very common that the dirt accumulated above the brooms during the opening period of the door fall back into the groove under the influence of the closing of the opening.
On notera encore qu'en raison du jeu de fonctionnement indispensable existant entre les moyens de guidage de l'ouvrant et la rainure du seuil de porte, cet ouvrant peut battre au vent ce qui est particulièrement gênant et la présence de balais ne permet souvent que d'atténuer ce phénomène sans l'éviter.Note also that due to the essential operating clearance between the guide means of the opening and the groove of the door sill, this opening can beat the wind which is particularly troublesome and the presence of brushes often only allows to mitigate this phenomenon without avoiding it.
On relèvera qu'il est également connu par les documents
La présente invention a pour but de remédier aux inconvénients précités.The present invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
A cet effet, l'invention concerne un seuil de guidage pour ouvrant coulissant de porte ou fenêtre, sous forme d'un profilé comportant une rainure de guidage et des moyens de fermeture et d'étanchéité refermant au moins partiellement cette rainure, moyens constitués par un joint de recouvrement conçu apte à s'étendre au dessus de ladite rainure en prenant appui sur les bordures longitudinales de cette dernière, notamment après ouverture de l'ouvrant. Tout particulièrement, ce joint de recouvrement est rendu solidaire, de manière articulée ou flexible, de l'une des bordures longitudinales de la rainure.For this purpose, the invention relates to a guiding threshold for sliding door or window opening, in the form of a profile comprising a guide groove and closing and sealing means at least partially closing this groove, means constituted by an overlap designed designed to extend above said groove bearing on the longitudinal edges of the latter, especially after opening of the opening. In particular, this lap joint is made integral, in an articulated or flexible manner, with one of the longitudinal edges of the groove.
Selon une autre particularité de l'invention, sur l'une des bordures longitudinales de la rainure de guidage est ménagée une rainure d'accrochage conçue apte à coopérer par emboîtement transversal ou engagement longitudinal avec un rebord d'accrochage que comporte ledit joint de recouvrement.According to another feature of the invention, on one of the longitudinal edges of the guide groove is provided a fastening groove designed adapted to cooperate by transverse engagement or longitudinal engagement with a hooking flange that includes said lap joint .
Selon encore une autre particularité de l'invention, sur l'une et/ou l'autre des bordures longitudinales de la rainure, le profilé, définissant le seuil de guidage, comporte un décrochement correspondant, sensiblement, à l'épaisseur du joint de recouvrement.According to yet another feature of the invention, on one and / or the other of the longitudinal edges of the groove, the profile, defining the guide threshold, comprises a recess substantially corresponding to the thickness of the seal of recovery.
Les avantages découlant de la présente invention consistent en ce qu'une fois l'ouvrant ouvert, le joint de recouvrement recouvre, sur la totalité de la largeur, la rainure de guidage. Aucune saleté ne peut donc s'infiltrer dans cette dernière.The advantages deriving from the present invention are that once the door opens, the lap joint covers, over the entire width, the guide groove. No dirt can infiltrate the latter.
Par ailleurs, lors de la fermeture de l'ouvrant, le joint de recouvrement est progressivement soulevé et basculé dans une position verticale sous l'influence dudit ouvrant et les saletés qui se seraient accumulées sur le joint sont évacuées vers l'extérieur sans pouvoir retomber dans la rainure.Furthermore, when the sash is closed, the lap joint is progressively raised and tilted in a vertical position under the influence of said sash and the dirt which would have accumulated on the seam are evacuated to the outside without being able to fall back in the groove.
La présente invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre se rapportant à un exemple de réalisation.The present invention will be better understood on reading the following description relating to an exemplary embodiment.

La présente invention concerne le domaine des portes ou fenêtres coulissantes, plus particulièrement de type portes de garage ou similaires.The present invention relates to the field of sliding doors or windows, more particularly of type garage doors or the like.
Comme visible sur les figures des dessins ci-joints, l'invention a trait à un seuil de guidage 1 destiné à contribuer au guidage au sol de l'ouvrant 2 de cette porte ou fenêtre.As shown in the figures of the accompanying drawings, the invention relates to a
Ce seuil de guidage 1, sous forme d'un profilé, comporte, au niveau de sa face supérieure 3, une rainure de guidage 4 qui est sensiblement en forme de « U » dans laquelle est prévue apte à se déplacer l'extrémité inférieure de l'ouvrant 2, voire des tenons ou des galets de guidage équipant cette dernière en partie inférieure.This guiding
A noter, en ce qui concerne cet ouvrant 2, qu'il peut être composé d'un ou plusieurs ventaux en forme de panneaux rigides ou articulés, voire de lames repliables ou empilables.Note, with respect to this
Pour en revenir au seuil 1, celui-ci comporte encore des moyens 5 de fermeture et d'étanchéité conçus aptes à refermer, au moins partiellement, la rainure de guidage 4, notamment après ouverture de l'ouvrant 2.To return to the
Ces moyens de fermeture 5 sont constitués par un joint de recouvrement 6 conçu apte à s'étendre au-dessus de la rainure 4 de manière à prendre appui sur les bordures longitudinales 7, 8 de cette rainure 4.These closure means 5 consist of a
Le joint de recouvrement 6 est rendu solidaire, de manière articulée ou flexible, de l'une 7 de ces bordures longitudinales de la rainure 4.The
Tout particulièrement, selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, au niveau de cette bordure longitudinale 7 de la rainure 4, est prévue une rainure d'accrochage 9, notamment de section en T, avec laquelle est prévue apte à coopérer par emboîtement transversal et/ou engagement longitudinal, une languette d'accrochage 10 que comporte le bord longitudinal 11 correspondant du joint de recouvrement 6, cette languette d'accrochage 10 s'étendant plus particulièrement sous ce dernier.More particularly, according to an advantageous embodiment, at this
Ainsi, cette languette d'accrochage 10 peut présenter une forme en « T » adaptée à celle de la rainure d'accrochage 9.Thus, this hooking
A ce propos, dans la mesure où le seuil de guidage 1 vient généralement s'intercaler entre les tableaux de l'encadrement de la porte ou fenêtre, si le joint de recouvrement 6 est prévu pour être inséré longitudinalement dans la rainure d'accrochage 9, ce joint de recouvrement 6 sera mis en place avant la pose du seuil.In this respect, insofar as the guiding
Toutefois, au cas où ce joint de recouvrement 6 était susceptible de s'user dans le temps et qu'il convenait de pouvoir le remplacer, le cas échéant, sa languette d'accrochage 10 sera préférentiellement conçue de manière apte à être emboîtée latéralement, c'est-à-dire depuis le dessus dans la rainure d'accrochage 9.However, in case this
On peut encore prévoir en remplacement ou en combinaison de cette solution d'emboîtement transversal qu'au niveau d'au moins l'une des parties d'extrémités de ce seuil 1, la rainure d'accrochage 9 communique avec des ouvertures de dégagement (non représentées) ouverture au travers de laquelle la languette d'accrochage 10 puisse être dégagée ou enfilée longitudinalement dans la rainure d'accrochage 9 sans que les tableaux de l'encadrement de la porte ou fenêtre, contre lesquels aboute le seuil 1 ne gênent ce dégagement et cette insertion.It can also be provided as a replacement or combination of this transverse nesting solution that at at least one of the end portions of this
D'ailleurs, celle-ci sera facilitée, dans ces conditions, au travers de l'emploi d'un joint de recouvrement souple et par ailleurs élastique.Moreover, it will be facilitated, in these conditions, through the use of a flexible overlap and otherwise elastic.
Tout particulièrement, au travers de cette souplesse et de cette élasticité, ledit joint de recouvrement 6 s'il se trouve naturellement en position étendue au-dessus de la rainure de guidage 4, en appui sur les bordures longitudinales 7, 8 de cette dernière, il est susceptible de se relever, pour libérer le passage en cette rainure 8 de l'ouvrant 2 comme cela est visible dans la
A noter, en ce qui concerne les propriétés de ce joint de recouvrement 6, plus sa souplesse est grande, plus courte sera la longueur entrebâillée 12 de ce joint de recouvrement 6 à l'approche de l'ouvrant 2.More particularly, through this flexibility and elasticity, said
It should be noted that, with regard to the properties of this
En effet, à l'avant de ce dernier, ce joint de recouvrement passe, par élasticité et grâce à sa souplesse depuis une position de fermeture de la rainure de guidage 4 dans une position sensiblement verticale d'ouverture en appui sur l'ouvrant 2.Indeed, at the front of the latter, this lap joint passes, by elasticity and thanks to its flexibility from a closed position of the
D'ailleurs, on observera que ce joint de recouvrement 6 est préférentiellement rendu solidaire du bord longitudinal 7 se situant du côté externe par rapport à l'ouvrant 2.Moreover, it will be observed that this
Cette configuration a l'avantage de rendre étanche la porte ou fenêtre coulissante aux infiltrations de saletés et d'eau depuis l'extérieur dans la mesure où en position de fermeture de l'ouvrant 2, le joint de recouvrement 6 étant sous contrainte, est maintenu en applique contre ce dernier d'où résulte, non seulement, cette étanchéité mais encore un parfait maintien de l'ouvrant 2 évitant que celui-ci ne batte sous l'effet du vent.This configuration has the advantage of sealing the door or sliding window to infiltrations of dirt and water from the outside to the extent that in the closed position of the
Comme cela est expliqué précédemment, la souplesse du joint de recouvrement 6 est une propriété essentielle pour réduire la longueur entrebâillée 12. Toutefois, un matériau offrant une telle souplesse procure, généralement, une force de frottement élevée.As explained above, the flexibility of the
Pour réduire cette force de frottement que procure le joint de recouvrement 6 en appui sur le côté externe 13 de l'ouvrant 2, ledit joint de recouvrement 6 comporte, préférentiellement, au niveau de sa face inférieure 14, des éléments d'appui 15 en matériau à coefficient de frottement plus réduits.To reduce the friction force provided by the
Ainsi, ces éléments d'appui 15 peuvent se présenter sous forme de picots ou d'au moins un bossage longitudinal 16 en matériau dur. Ainsi, ce ou ces bossages longitudinaux 16 peuvent se présenter sous forme d'inclusion métallique ou en matériau synthétique dur coextrudé avec le joint de recouvrement 6, lui-même conçu en un matériau synthétique souple et élastique.Thus, these
De manière tout particulièrement avantageuse, au moins un bossage longitudinal 16 est ainsi défini au niveau de la face inférieure 14 du joint de recouvrement 6 à hauteur de son bord longitudinal 17 libre, c'est-à-dire non solidarisé au seuil 1.In a particularly advantageous manner, at least one
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, ce bossage longitudinal 16 en bordure longitudinale 17 du joint de recouvrement 6, peut être défini apte à être accueilli dans une goulotte 18 en bordure longitudinale 8 de la rainure 4, ceci lorsque ce joint de recouvrement 6 vient refermer cette dernière.According to an advantageous embodiment, this
Cette coopération entre la goulotte 18 et ledit bossage longitudinal 16 conduit à un accrochage dudit joint de recouvrement 6 au niveau de cette bordure longitudinale 8 de la rainure de guidage 4.This cooperation between the
Selon une autre particularité de l'invention, au niveau des bordures longitudinales 7, 8 de la rainure 4, le seuil 1 comporte des décrochements 19, 20 définissant des zones d'appui pour le joint de recouvrement 6 en retrait par rapport au contour supérieur 21 du seuil 1.According to another feature of the invention, at the
Avantageusement, ces décrochements 19, 20 sont sensiblement de hauteur égale, voire supérieurs à ladite épaisseur 22 de ce joint de recouvrement 6 de manière à ce que celui-ci soit confondu, au niveau de sa face supérieure avec ce contour externe supérieur 21 du seuil 1, évitant l'accrochage de ce joint ou encore une usure prématurée.Advantageously, these
Comme cela a déjà été expliqué plus haut, si le joint de recouvrement 6 peut être rendu solidaire du seuil 1 au travers d'une liaison assimilable à un encastrement, visible dans les
En outre, l'on peut imaginer intégrer, à ce joint, des moyens d'articulation pour lui permettre de passer depuis sa position de recouvrement, dans sa position relevée en appui contre l'ouvrant 2.In addition, it is conceivable to integrate, at this joint, hinge means to enable it to pass from its covering position, in its raised position against the
Tel qu'il ressort de la description qui précède, la présente invention vient remédier, de manière avantageuse, aux inconvénients et solutions jusqu'alors connues.As can be seen from the foregoing description, the present invention advantageously overcomes the disadvantages and solutions hitherto known.
