Definitions

  • the invention concerns a method for opening elements that are installed in buildings.
  • opening element means any opening structure installed in buildings, like for example a skylight.
  • the invention concerns a method for opening skylights and similar elements that are installed in buildings to let in light and air and that are operated via electric motors powered with direct current supplied by batteries of electric accumulators with photovoltaic recharge.
  • the invention concerns also an independent control unit for opening and closing the above mentioned skylights, of the type comprising a battery of electric accumulators with photovoltaic recharge, suited to carry out the opening of said skylights according to the method described above.
  • skylights are installed on the roofs of buildings to let in light and ensure air change in the rooms.
  • each skylight comprises a dome delimited by a frame applied to a base arranged on the perimeter of an opening made in the structure of the building.
  • the frame can even be hinged to the base and actuator means connected to the frame provide for opening and closing the skylight by rotating the dome around the hinge means.
  • the actuator means comprise a direct current electric motor that is powered and controlled by an independent unit provided with batteries of accumulators with photovoltaic recharge.
  • the opening and closing of the skylight are manually controlled by the user via a button or remote control, while closing can also be performed automatically via atmospheric sensors that detect the presence of rain or wind.
  • the rain sensor Since the rain sensor is activated also by the presence of humidity, it is associated with a resistor that keeps it at a temperature sufficient to prevent the formation of frost or dew over it.
  • the senor would consider the presence of frost or dew as if it were rain and consequently the independent unit that feeds and controls the skylight would not execute an opening command given by the user.
  • Another recognized drawback lies in that the independent opening and closing units of known type do not signal the charge status of the accumulators to the user in any way, with the risk of the skylight remaining open or closed after the last opening or closing operation without the user being aware of that.
  • the present invention intends to overcome the drawbacks listed above.
  • the opening method and the independent unit that implements it which are the subjects of the present invention, allow the accumulator charge to be extended.
  • the opening method and the independent control unit that implements it make the operation of the skylights to which they are applied more reliable.
  • the invention makes it possible to limit the risk of the skylight remaining open or closed after the opening and closing manoeuvres due to the running down of the accumulators.
  • said method and said independent control unit can be applied to skylights of known type even if they have already been installed.
  • the above mentioned opening method can be applied to any type of opening element and not only to a skylight.
  • the skylight as shown in the above mentioned Figures 1 to 4 , comprises a cover 2 provided with a frame 2a hinged to a base 3 that delimits an opening A made in a building indicated as a whole by B.
  • the cover 2 is connected to an electric opening and closing motor 4 operated via control means, indicated as a whole by 10 and comprising:
  • the first sensor 6' is “active” in the presence of rain or simply humidity and analogously the second sensor 6" is “active” in the presence of wind.
  • the sensors are "inactive” if there is no rain or humidity or wind, respectively.
  • An independent control unit indicated as a whole by 8 and electrically connected to the electric motor 4 and to the automatic control means 6 is responsible for opening and closing the cover 2 of the opening element 1.
  • active means that the sensor detects the presence of rain, humidity or wind and does not enable the independent control unit 8 to open the cover 2.
  • active means that the sensors enable the independent control unit 8 to open the cover 2.
  • the first sensor 6' is active, which means that there is rain or humidity
  • the second sensor 6" is inactive, which means that there is no wind
  • the cover 2 remains lifted from the base 3 and remains in this position until the user closes it by means of the control provided for this purpose.
  • the cover 2 is automatically closed, immediately or after a predefined interval.
  • the method of the invention includes the use of the independent control unit, indicated as a whole by 8 and represented in detail in Figure 5 , which comprises a programmable logic unit 9 and an independent power supply unit indicated as a whole by 11, and which is connected to the electric motor 4 and the electric motor control means, indicated as a whole by 10.
  • the independent control unit 8 preferably but not necessarily comprises a casing 8a which encloses the programmable logic unit 9 and the independent power supply unit 11 and in which it is possible to identify:
  • the programmable logic unit 9 is connected to the connection ports 12 and 13 and to the manual control means 5 of the electric motor 4, while the independent power supply unit 11 is connected to the programmable logic unit 9, to the automatic control means 6 and to the electric motor 4.
  • first port 12 it is possible to identify a first contact 12a connected to the programmable logic unit 9 through a first conductor 14 and a second contact 12b connected to the output 11a of the independent power supply unit 11 through a second conductor 15.
  • a fuse 16 is arranged in series to the second conductor 15.
  • the second port 13 in said port it is possible to identify a first contact 13a and a second contact 13b connected via an external line 17 to the automatic control means 6, in particular to the first rain or humidity sensor 6' and to the second wind sensor 6".
  • Both the above mentioned contacts 13a, 13b are also connected via an internal line 18 to the programmable logic unit 9 through the interposition of a communication interface 19.
  • a radio receiver 21 interposed between the manual control means 5 and the programmable logic unit 9 allows opening and closing of the opening element through the manual control means 5 that in this case consist of a remote control 5a to be used by the operator.
  • the radio receiver 21 may even not be provided and the manual control means 5 may comprise buttons directly connected to the programmable logic unit 9.
  • the independent power supply unit 11 comprises a battery of electric accumulators 22 electrically connected to an electronic management unit 23 that checks the charge status of the above mentioned accumulators 22 as ensured by the presence of a photovoltaic panel 24 to which it is connected via a first connection line 25.
  • photovoltaic panel 24 can be placed in any position.
  • the accumulators 22 are arranged in a remote position with respect to the independent control unit 8, in which case a second connection line 26 electrically connects them to the electronic management unit 23.
  • a third connection line 27 connects the electronic management unit 23 to the programmable logic unit 9 through the interposition of a regulating unit 30.
  • the electronic management unit 23, the regulating unit 30 and the programmable logic unit 9 are connected to the power supply neutral wire.
  • the programmable logic unit 9 is of the type known per se and available on the market and is programmed in such a way as to signal any status of insufficient charge of the accumulators through suitable acoustic or luminous indicators 31 or other types of indicator.
  • the programmable logic unit 9 independently of the condition of the first sensor 6' and therefore independently of the presence of rain or humidity, prevents power supply to the motor 4 and thus the cover 2 remains closed as shown in Figure 1 .
  • the programmable logic unit 9 allows power supply to the motor 4 for a time sufficient to lift the cover 2 to the predefined height X from the base 3 in order to arrange it in the configuration shown in Figures 2 and 3 .
  • the electric motor 4 is then stopped and the programmable logic unit 9 permits power supply to the electric heating means 7 of the first sensor 6' through electric energy provided by the independent power supply unit 11.
  • the electric heating means 7 of the first sensor 6' are powered for a lapse of time that is predefined on programming of the programmable logic unit 9 and is sufficient to ensure the evaporation of any frost or dew present on the first sensor 6' .
  • the programmable logic unit 9 supplies power again to the electric motor 4 for a time sufficient to allow the complete opening of the cover 2 that is thus brought to the open position shown in Figure 4 .
  • the programmable logic unit 9 does not allow the motor 4 to be started and consequently the cover 2 remains locked in the lifted position with respect to the base 3, as can be observed in Figures 2 and 3 .
  • the programmable logic unit 9 may authorize the start of the motor 4 in order to bring the cover 2 back to the closed position, as shown in Figure 1 .
  • the object of making the charge of the accumulators 22 last longer is thus achieved, since the electric heating means 7 of the first rain sensor 6', which are the elements characterized by the highest power absorption, are powered only for a limited lapse of time, only after the partial lifting of the cover 2.
  • the battery of accumulators 22 supplies power only for a limited time, and this differentiates the invention from the systems of known type, where the electric heating means of the rain sensor are constantly powered.
  • the presence of the indicators 31 reduces the risk of putting the system out of order due to the unexpected running down of the battery of accumulators 22.
