- Electrical actuators for automating doors or windows, i.e., which allow to open and close automatically a leaf of a door or window with respect to its casing, are currently known and widespread.
- These actuators comprise, within a box-like container which is fixed to the frame of the casing or of the leaf, an electric motor and a series of gears for reduction and transmission of the torque to a push-pull element, which can be a chain or a bar with a rack.
- The push element also is contained at least partially within the box-like container, where it engages the last corresponding gear of the series of reduction and transmission gears.
- A typical box-like container which has been used up to now is composed of at least three shell portions: a first outer shell portion, an intermediate shell portion, and a second outer shell portion.
- The intermediate shell portion coupled to the first shell portion forms with the latter a first chamber for accommodating the electric motor, the associated electronic components for management, and the gear train for reduction and torque transmission.
- The second outer shell portion, which together with the first outer shell portion forms the actual outer box-like enclosure, forms with the intermediate shell portion a second chamber for the push-pull element.
- A sealing gasket is arranged between the first outer shell portion and the intermediate shell portion in order to seal the chamber in which the electric motor and the electronic components are fitted.
- A box-like container such as the one described has aspects which can be improved.
- Such container is in fact constituted by such shell portions, each of which has to be provided by molding, and then mutually assembled with a certain number of screws, an operation which requires an amount of time which is proportional to the number of elements to be assembled and of threaded elements to be screwed.
- The number of components and the complexity of the assembly inevitably affect the overall production costs of the container.
- The aim of the present invention is to provide a box-like container for electrical actuators for automating doors or windows which has a simplified structure with respect to known box-like containers.
- Within this aim, an object of the present invention is to provide a box-like container for electrical actuators for automating doors or windows which is simple and quick to assemble.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a box-like container in which the hermetic seal of the chamber which accommodates the electric motor and the electronic components is ideal.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a box-like container which can be manufactured at lower costs than known box-like containers.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a box-like container for electrical actuators for automating doors or windows which can be manufactured with known systems and technologies.
- This aim and these and other objects, which will become better apparent hereinafter, are achieved by a box-like container for electrical actuators for automating doors or windows, which contains internally an electric motor, the associated electronic components, at least part of a push-pull element for moving the leaf of the door or window, and a gear train for reduction and torque transmission, which is interposed between said motor and said push-pull element, characterized in that it is constituted by two shell portions which form the outer enclosure and have corresponding internal partitions, which when juxtaposed when the shell portions are closed onto each other, provide a first chamber for the motor, the electronic components and at least part of the gear train, and a second chamber for at least part of said push-pull element, a gasket being interposed between said two shell portions and being shaped so as to cover the facing perimetric edges of the two shell portions and the edges of the juxtaposed partitions which divide said first chamber from said second chamber.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become better apparent from the following detailed description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment thereof, illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, wherein:

like container 10 is constituted by twoshell portions - The two shell portions, the first one 17 and the second one 18, form the outer enclosure of the
container 10 and are provided with correspondinginternal partitions 24, which, juxtaposed with respect to mutually closedshell portions first chamber 20 for themotor 14, theelectronic components 15 and at least part of thegear train 16, and asecond chamber 21, which contains part of thebar 12, which passes through it; thebar 12 with therack 13 which does not protrude at the front from the actuator 11 and is not in thesecond chamber 21 lies inside atubular container 22 which is fixed to the box-like container 11. - A
gasket 23 is interposed between the twoshell portions perimetric edges shell portions edges 24a of thejuxtaposed partitions 24 which divide thefirst chamber 20 from thesecond chamber 21. - The
partitions 24 are substantially flat. - In particular, in the exemplary embodiment of the invention described here, the
gasket 23 is provided by a frame-like portion 23a which lies so as to affect theperimetric edges shell portions intermediate portion 23b, which extends from afirst side 23c to a secondopposite side 23d of theframe 23a in the direction of the length of thegasket 23. - The
intermediate portion 23b is intended to be interposed, as mentioned, between theedges 24a of thepartitions 24, which in thecentral region 24b of thecontainer 10 are shaped like a circular arc in order to allow to accommodate the last-but-onegear 25 of the gear train within thefirst chamber 20; the last-but-onegear 25 is keyed onto ashaft 26 which passes through thefirst chamber 20 and thesecond chamber 21 and transmits motion to thelast gear 27, which is arranged in thesecond chamber 21 and engages directly therack 13 to move thebar 12. - At the
central region 24b shaped like a circular arc of thepartitions 24, thegasket 23 has a complementary shaped arc-like portion 23e. - Each portion of the
gasket 23 has two lips in order to surround theedges 24a of thepartitions first shell portion 17, while on the opposite side, on theperimetric portion 23a, there are grooves for the correct arrangement of theedges 18a of thesecond shell portion 18. - The hermetic seal of the
first chamber 20 with respect to thesecond chamber 21 and with respect to the outside is ensured by two annular seals, designated by thereference numerals - The first
annular seal 28 is arranged between acorresponding collar 25a of the last-but-onegear 25 and the complementarily shaped facing edge of the hole through which thecollar 25a faces thesecond chamber 21; thefirst seal 28 ensures protection of thefirst chamber 20 against water and moisture which might enter thesecond chamber 21, which is inevitably open onto the outside for the passage of thebar 12. - The second
annular seal 29 surrounds the end of the shaft that lies opposite to the end onto which thelast gear 27 is keyed, and is pressed between ashoulder 30 provided outside thefirst shell portion 17 and anopposite abutment 31 which is formed on acovering element 32 which is associated externally with thefirst shell portion 17. - The hermetic seal of the
first chamber 20 is completed by theconical rubber grommet 32 for thepower supply cable 33, which is pressed against thecorresponding locking collar 34 on thefirst shell portion 17 by anannular lid 35, which together with theedge 35a of its own hole clamps thegrommet 32 against thecable 33. - In an embodiment of the invention which has not been shown, the push-pull element can be a chain, which is designed to wind inside a second suitably contoured chamber.
- In practice it has been found that the invention thus described achieves the intended aim and objects.
