Description
- The invention relates generally to doors having multiple panels such as, for example, garage doors but more specifically to a mechanism which provides for better insulating properties.
- Vertically opening doors having multiple panels are mostly known for their use as car garage doors although they can be used for other applications. Over the years steel, aluminum or vinyl covered doors with an insulating core have been developed to increase insulating properties. No matter the insulating properties of the core, there remains heat loss due to the poor sealing characteristics of the perimeter seal which allows air to circulate. The problem is not so much that the seal is poor, it is because the constant friction of the door opening and closing against the seal makes it less efficient, plus the fact that, to begin with, in order not to cause too much of a hindrance to the operation of the door, the seal cannot create too much friction against the door so that it can open or close relatively effort free so as not to over work the motor doing the opening and closing operation or a user manually opening or closing the door.
US 2,039,296 discloses a door having the features of the preamble ofclaim 1 and which door shifts laterally when it reaches its closed position in order to fit tightly with the door frame. However, the mechanism has to be activated by a stop when the door reaches its closed position. - In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known devices now present in the prior art, the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide objects and advantages which are:
- To provide for an improved mechanism for the operation of a multiple panels door which improves insulating properties.
- To provide for an improved mechanism for the operation of a multiple panels door which does not create undue resistance on the door movement so as to require a more powerful motor or require unnecessary strain on the part of a user manually operating the door.
- To attain these ends, the invention provides for a mechanism for the operation of a vertically opening multiple panels door in accordance with
claim 1. The invention comprises a means that keeps the door panels away from the seal as they move up or down vertically and that brings the panels tightly against the seal when the panels have completed their vertical course. - The invention comprises a pair of hinge mechanism for each of the door panels and the hinge mechanism is further comprised of a clamshell module and a cam.
- The clamshell module having a first part on one of the panels and a second part on another panel. Each of the cams is associated with one of the clamshell modules by way of a plate fixedly attached to any one of the panels. The plate is located proximal to the clamshell module and the cam is rotationally attached to the plate at its proximal end and rotationally attached to a blade at its distal end. Each of the blades is connected to a caster and each of the caster rolls within the guide rail.
- A top cam, rotationally attached to the plate on its proximal end and the plate fixedly attached on one of the panels and the top cam is rotationally attached to a secondary cam on its distal end. An auxiliary cam is situated between a top caster and an attachment bracket.
- A « Y » configuration between the secondary cam, the cam and the top blade is able to change into a « T » configuration.
- There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
- In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
- As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception, upon which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
- These together with other objects of the invention, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the invention, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure. For a better understanding of the invention, its operating advantages and the specific objects attained by its uses, reference should be made to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter which contains illustrated preferred embodiments of the invention.

multiple panels door 10 works in conjunction with a pair of guide rails 12 (only one shown in dotted lines infigs.1ab ) as are commonly used in the art. Theguide rails 12 do not require any special modifications except that they are set back from adoor frame 14 in a distance greater than is usually used in the art. It is also recommended that theguide rails 12 have additional bracing (not shown) so that they can sustain more stress than normal in the art. - The
door panels 16 are also well known in the art and standard off theshelf panels 16 can be used in conjunction with standard off theshelf guide rails 12, where the invention mostly lies is in thehinge mechanism 18 which is substantially different from hinges of the prior art (not shown). - When the
panels 16 have run their course along the path of theguide rails 12, they are moved away from theguide rails 12 to be put against thedoor frame 14. which results in thedoor panels 16 applying pressure against aninsulating strip 20. Thisinsulating strip 20 can be derived from existing types known in the art or it can be specially created or adapted for this application since, by moving towards theinsulating strip 20, thedoor 10 applies pressure onto thestrip 20 which can thus be thicker and resiliently deformable which can provide for a better seal. A variety of elastomers could be used to perform that function. It is not, however, within the scope of this invention to give more details on the exact composition or properties of such a sealing strip. - The
hinge mechanism 18 is comprised of aclamshell module 22 and acam 24. For each twopanels 16, there is a pair ofsuch hinge mechanism 18 that is shared since theclamshell module 22 requires to have a first part 22' on onepanel 16 and asecond part 22" on another panel 16', this is obvious for anyone familiar with the workings of any hinge. - Each
cam 24 is associated with aclamshell module 22 by way of aplate 26 fixedly attached to apanel 16 proximal theclamshell module 22. Thecam 24 is rotationally attached to theplate 26 at itsproximal end 28 and rotationally attached to ablade 32 at itsdistal end 30. Eachblade 32 is connected to acaster 34 and eachcaster 34 rolls within theguide rail 12 as is known for any prior art multiple panel door except that in this case, theblades 32 act as if they weredoor panels 16. - As the
panels 16 move upwardly or downwardly, thecams 24 are in a substantially parallel relation with theguide rails 12 as perfig.1a . When a top caster 34' reaches the end of the guide rail 12', allpanels 16 are now parallel with theguide rails 12. A top cam 24' has the unique feature of being, on itsproximal end 28, rotationally attached to atop plate 27 on atop panel 16" wherein anotherplate 26 is also fixedly attached and, on itsdistal end 30, being rotationally attached to asecondary cam 36. - This arrangement induces all
cams 24 to move from a substantially parallel position in relation to theguide rails 12, to a substantially perpendicular relation to theguide rails 12. As can be seen infig. 1a , there is a « Y » configuration between thesecondary cam 36, thecam 24 and atop blade 38 whereas infig. 1b there is a « T » configuration between these same elements. - The arctuate shape of the
guide rails 12 forces this change in configuration between what is seen infig. 1 a andfig. 1b as atop panel 16" passes from a horizontal position into a vertical position. The top blade 38' being substantially longer than thecams 24 makes thetop panel 16" move faster which has the effect of changing that configuration and lift allother cams 24, which moves thedoor 10 away from theframe 14 when thedoor 10 is opening, and moving thedoor 10 against theframe 14 when it is closing. - Also, an
auxiliary cam 40 situated between the top caster 34' and an attachment bracket 26' contributes to the changing in the configuration by maintaining a relative distance between the attachment bracket 26' and the top caster 34' so as to force the change between the configuration offig. 1a and the that offig. 1 b. - As to a further discussion of the manner of usage and operation of the present invention, the same should be apparent from the above description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of usage and operation will be provided.
- With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.
- Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
