Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mechanical connection with a rod.
  • the invention relates to a mechanical interconnection device with a rod for mounting door handles.
  • door handles are generally mounted on respective rods by inserting the rods in interconnecting openings afforded on the body of the handles and then fastening the handles on the rods using fastening screws which are inserted and screwed into respective holes realised on the body of the handles. The screw is then screwed up to constraining the rod internally of the door handle, possibly in a housing seating afforded in the rod, thus fastening handle and rod together.
  • the handle rod is then coupled to a respective rotation mechanism housed internally of the door and another handle is mounted to the other end of the rod.
  • the technical objective underlying the present invention is to make available a device for mechanical interconnection with a rod which obviates the above-cited drawbacks.
  • a particular aim of the present invention is to realise a mechanical interconnection device with a rod for mounting door handles.
  • one of the aims of the present invention is to provide a device for door handles which is able to accelerate and considerably simplify the mounting and/or demounting operations of door handles.
  • a further aim of the present invention is to provide a device which can be used with any handle.
  • a still further aim of the present invention is to make available a device which is simple and economical to manufacture.
  • the invention relates to a device as in any one of the claims in which the through-opening exhibits a main central axis that coincides with a main central axis of a coupling opening in a first operating position, inclined with respect to the main central axis of the coupling opening in a second operating position.
  • the invention relates to a device of any one of the claims wherein the passage opening and/or the coupling opening are substantially complementarily-shaped to the section of the rod.
  • the invention relates to a device of any one of the claims, characterised in that it further comprises a rod which is insertable in the body.
  • the invention relates to a device as in any one of the claims wherein in the first operating position the through-opening exhibits a projection on the plane that is perpendicular to the insertion direction which projection is larger than the section of the rod and in the second position the projection of the coupling opening on the plane exhibits at least a smaller dimension that the corresponding of the rod section.
  • the invention relates to a method as in claim 10 which further comprises a stage of removing the rod by acting on the activating portion of the retaining element in order to displace the retaining element towards the first opening position, thus freeing the rod, enabling its extraction from the coupling opening.
  • a mechanical interconnecting device with a stem for mounting door handles of the present invention is denoted in its entirety by reference number 1.
  • the device 1 comprises a body 2 provided with a coupling opening 3 destined to enable insertion of a rod 4 internally thereof, in an insertion sense 26a along an insertion direction 26, for coupling the body 2 to the rod 4.
  • the device 1 further comprises a retaining element 5 provided with a through-opening 6 having a profile 7 destined to be crossed by the rod 4.
  • the retaining element 5 is housed in a seating 8 afforded in a portion of the coupling opening 3 of the body 2 configured such as to enable displacement of the retaining element 5 internally of the body 2.
  • the displacement is made between a first operating position in which the retaining element 5 exhibits the through-opening 6 arranged such as to enable passage of the stem 4 and a second operating position in which at least a portion of the profile 7 of the through-opening 6 interferes with the rod 4 in order to prevent extraction thereof from the body 2.
  • At least two portions of profile 7 enter into contact with the surface of the stem 4 in the second operating position.
  • the through-opening 6 preferably exhibits a projection on the plane that is perpendicular to the insertion direction having at least a predetermined dimension which is destined to enable passage of the rod 4, while in the second position the dimension of the projection of the coupling opening on the plane is smaller than the predetermined dimension.
  • the retaining element 5 is advantageously arranged perpendicular to the insertion direction of the rod 4 when in the first operating position and is instead inclined when in the second operating position.
  • the retaining element 5 is displaceable from the second operating position to the first operating position by effect of the thrust exerted by the rod 4 during the insertion of the body 2 and is displaceable towards the second operation position by effect of the thrust exerted by the rod 4 in extraction from the coupling opening 3.
  • the body 2 further comprises a closing element 9 destined to contain the retaining element 5 internally of the body 2 and provided with a central opening 10 which enables the rod 4 to cross.
  • the closing element 9 exhibits a first external surface 12 and a second rest surface 13 facing towards the inside of the seating 8 and complementarily-inclined with respect to the inclination assumed by the retaining element 5 when in the second operating position.
  • a first rest surface 11 on the seating 8 is defined at the coupling opening 3, defining the first operating position of the retaining element 5, while the second rest surface 13 of the closing element 9 defines, for the retaining element 5, the second operating position and is inclined with respect to the first rest surface 11.
  • the body 2 preferably further comprises a stop ring 14, for example a common seeger ring, destined to insert in a seating afforded in the body 2 and to maintain the closing element 9 internally of the body 2 and to prevent exit thereof, especially during the stages of insertion and extraction of the rod 4 from the body 2 of the device 1.
  • a stop ring 14 for example a common seeger ring, destined to insert in a seating afforded in the body 2 and to maintain the closing element 9 internally of the body 2 and to prevent exit thereof, especially during the stages of insertion and extraction of the rod 4 from the body 2 of the device 1.
  • the body 2 advantageously further comprises an elastic element 15 housed internally thereof for pushing the retaining element 5 towards the second operating position.
  • the elastic element 15 is preferably positioned at an axial slot 16 in the body 2. With reference to figures 3 and 4 , the elastic element 15 is positioned such as not to interfere with the passage of the rod 4. It extends from the seating 8 towards the closing element 9 and acts in an axial direction.
  • the elastic element 15 is a helix spring housed at a first end 18a in a hole 27 afforded in the body 2 and having a second end 18b which is operatively active on the retaining element 5.
  • the elastic element 15 could be constituted by a different element suitable for the purpose.
  • the retaining element 5 is substantially plate-shaped and exhibits an activating portion 17 which is preferably constituted by a radially-extending protuberance.
  • the activating portion 17 rests on the second end 18b of the elastic element 15, as can be seen in figure 2 .
  • the retaining element 5 moves internally of the seating 8 and the activating portion 17 slides internally of the axial slot 16.
  • the body 2 advantageously affords a further axial slot 19 for housing a pin 20 that is solidly constrained to the closing element 9.
  • the pin 20 guarantees correct orientation of the closing element 9 (e.g. the correct angular position of the closing element 9) and the second rest surface 13 on which the retaining element 5 rests in the second operating position.
  • the retaining element 5 is advantageously inclined at an angle comprised between 3° and 30°, and preferably between 5° and 10°, with respect to the first operating position.
  • the body 2 is insertable in a cavity 21 afforded in a handle 22.
  • the body 2 is further fastenable to the handle 22 by means of a fastening screw 23.
  • the body 2 is additionally provided with an activating opening 24 destined to enable displacement of the retaining element 5 from the second to the first operating position, overcoming the resistance of the elastic element 15.
  • the activating portion 17 is activatable through the activating opening 24 by means of a specially-shaped key 25 (visible in figure 4 , in which it is shaped such as to displace the activating portion 17 following a rotation thereof), in order to enable extraction of the rod 4 inserted in the body 2 from the body 2 itself.
  • the activating opening 24 is defined by a portion of the slot 16 and is further associated and aligned to an additional activating opening 24' defined in the handle 22.
  • a further embodiment of the present invention illustrated in figures 5 and 6 , comprises the body 2 of the device 1 fashioned in a single piece from the handle 22, and therefore integral there-with.
  • the fastening screw 23 is not present, as the body 2 is already solidly constrained to the handle 22.
  • the functioning is entirely similar to what is described for the first embodiment.
  • activating opening 24 is defined directly in the body 2, solidly with the handle 22, and an additional activating opening 24' is not required.
  • the rod 4 is represented solidly associated to a second handle 28.
  • the shape of the section of the rod 4 and the cited openings can be any, for example square, rectangular, circular, elliptical, triangular, polygonal, etc.
  • the invention further relates to a method for rapid mounting of a door handle by means of the above-described device, comprising steps of mounting the rod 4 for door handles to a door, inserting a free end of the rod 4 in the coupling opening 3, pushing the stem 4 internally of the body 2 such as to displace, by means of the rod 4, the retaining element 5 from the second operating position to the first operating position and pushing the free end of the rod 4 through the through-opening 6 of the retaining element 5.
  • the rod 4 is inserted in the coupling opening 3, and pushed internally of the body 2, such as to displace the retaining element 5 from the second operating position to the first operating position.
  • the retaining element 5 is newly pushed towards the second operating position by the elastic element 15, maintaining the rod 4 coupled with the body 2.
  • the retaining element 5 prevents extraction of the rod 4 from the body 2 as the extraction force exerted in an extraction direction 26b opposite the insertion direction 26a determines a push on the retaining element 5 towards the second operating position and a consequent interference with the rod 4, which remains in a coupling with the body 2.
  • the present invention attains the set aims, obviating the drawbacks in the prior art.
  • the device is structurally simple and thus involves only contained costs.
  • the assembly or deassembly of the handle is done following a simple push of the rod in the coupling opening, and is thus simple and rapid.
