Definitions
- the invention relates to a guide or slide for sliding leaf, comprising a relatively rigid plastic monobloc core intended to be fixed to the leaf and to move in a profiled rail having two opposite and parallel guiding side bands.
- the invention is more particularly applicable to a high guide for an unsprung sliding door such as a closet door or the like.
- the object of the invention is therefore to overcome these disadvantages.
- the subject of the invention is a guide for sliding leaf as defined by claim 1.
- the core has two opposite sides intended respectively to be in contact with the two lateral bands of the guide rail and these two opposite sides of the soul are connected to each other by a profiled elastic section of the soul forming a kind of C which allows adjustment of the spacing of the two opposite sides of the core relative to each other by means of a screw.
- the invention extends to a sliding door comprising at least one high guide as defined above, said web of the high guide being fixed flat on the upper edge of the door.
- the invention also extends to a cabinet or cabinet element comprising a sliding door as defined above and a high guide rail in which slides said high guide which is disposed above the sliding door.
- the guide 1 for leaf here a high guide for sliding cabinet door, comprises a core 2 made of one-piece plastic material which is relatively rigid and flat so as to define two opposite sides 2A, 2B which here correspond to two parallel lateral sides of a parallelogram.
- the core 2 has a profiled structure with plates 3A, 3B reinforced by ribs 3C but this structure is arranged in such a way that the two opposite sides 2A, 2B of the core are connected to each other by a profiled elastic section 4 of the soul which is here a free rib which forms a kind of C.
- the side 2A of the core is provided with a train of two rollers 5A, 5B mounted on one end of the elastic section 4 C-shaped while the side 2B of the core is provided with a only roller 5C mounted on the other end of the elastic section 4 C-shaped, the three rollers being mounted here in an isosceles triangle arrangement.
- the end of the elastic section 4 which carries the roller 5C forms a kind of shoe with a ramp 6 on which is supported a set screw 8 which is adapted to move in the core (the other end of the C) to separate or move the roller 5C of the rollers 5A and 5B.
- the core 2 is provided with several holes 7 relatively aligned on a longitudinal axis A of the guide. These holes 7 serve for the passage of fixing screws for fixing the top guide 1 flat on the upper edge of a sliding door as visible on the figure 2 .
- the top guide 1 is thus fixed flat at one end of the upper edge of a sliding door 9.
- the high guide is also engaged in a profiled guide rail 10 fixed above the door and having two opposite parallel strips 10A , 10B guide.
- the rail 10 is here a rail with two guide ways. We see on the figure 2 that the rollers 5A and 5B come into contact with one of the two guide strips and that the roller 5C comes into contact with the other guide strip of the profiled rail.
Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne un guide ou coulisseau pour vantail coulissant, comprenant une âme monobloc en matière plastique relativement rigide destinée à être fixée au vantail et à se déplacer dans un rail profilé présentant deux bandes latérales opposées et parallèles de guidage.The invention relates to a guide or slide for sliding leaf, comprising a relatively rigid plastic monobloc core intended to be fixed to the leaf and to move in a profiled rail having two opposite and parallel guiding side bands.
L'invention s'applique plus particulièrement à un guide haut pour un vantail coulissant non suspendu telle qu'une porte de placard ou analogue.The invention is more particularly applicable to a high guide for an unsprung sliding door such as a closet door or the like.
On connaît déjà des guides hauts pour porte de placard coulissante qui sont réalisés par exemple en acier et qui comportent un ou plusieurs trains de galets roulants ou similaire. En général, on fixe deux guides hauts respectivement aux deux extrémités du chant supérieur de la porte et on engage ces deux guides hauts dans un rail profilé de guidage fixé au plafond d'une pièce pour fermer un espace de rangement dans la pièce. Dans cet agencement, la porte est portée par un autre jeu de guides support bas coulissants dans un autre rail profilé de guidage fixé au sol de la pièce.Already known high guides for sliding cabinet door which are made for example of steel and which comprise one or more trains of rollers or the like. In general, two high guides are fixed at both ends of the upper edge of the door and these two high guides are engaged in a profiled guide rail fixed to the ceiling of a room to close a storage space in the room. In this arrangement, the door is carried by another set of sliding low support guides in another profiled guide rail fixed to the floor of the room.
Outre que ce type de guide haut est couteux à réaliser, son déplacement dans le rail peut être bruyant du fait qu'il peut flotter dans ce rail.Besides this type of high guide is expensive to achieve, its movement in the rail can be noisy because it can float in this rail.
On connaît aussi un autre type de guide haut pour porte coulissante réalisé simplement sous la forme d'un galet en matière plastique fixé au chant supérieur de la porte. Ce type de guide haut présente également les inconvénients indiqués ci-dessus.Another type of high guide for a sliding door is also known, which is simply in the form of a plastic roller attached to the upper edge of the door. This type of high guide also has the drawbacks indicated above.
On connaît par exemple du document de brevet
Le but de l'invention est donc de pallier ces inconvénients.The object of the invention is therefore to overcome these disadvantages.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un guide pour vantail coulissant tel que défini par la revendication 1. Dans ce guide, l'âme présente deux côtés opposés destinés respectivement à être en contact avec les deux bandes latérales du rail de guidage et ces deux côtés opposés de l'âme sont reliés l'un à l'autre par une section élastique profilée de l'âme formant une sorte de C qui autorise un réglage de l'écartement des deux côtés opposés de l'âme l'un par rapport à l'autre par l'intermédiaire d'une vis.To this end, the subject of the invention is a guide for sliding leaf as defined by claim 1. In this guide, the core has two opposite sides intended respectively to be in contact with the two lateral bands of the guide rail and these two opposite sides of the soul are connected to each other by a profiled elastic section of the soul forming a kind of C which allows adjustment of the spacing of the two opposite sides of the core relative to each other by means of a screw.
L'invention s'étend à une porte coulissante comprenant au moins un guide haut comme défini ci-dessus, ladite âme du guide haut étant fixée à plat sur le chant supérieur de la porte.The invention extends to a sliding door comprising at least one high guide as defined above, said web of the high guide being fixed flat on the upper edge of the door.
L'invention s'étend encore à un élément de placard ou d'armoire comprenant une porte coulissante telle que définie ci-dessus et un rail de guidage haut dans lequel coulisse le dit guide haut qui est disposé au-dessus de la porte coulissante.The invention also extends to a cabinet or cabinet element comprising a sliding door as defined above and a high guide rail in which slides said high guide which is disposed above the sliding door.
L'invention sera encore mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui suit d'un exemple de réalisation d'un guide haut pour porte de placard coulissante illustré par les dessins.
- La
figure 1 représente en perspective un guide haut selon l'invention. - La
figure 2 représente en perspective une porte de placard coulissante équipée d'un guide haut selon l'invention.
- The
figure 1 represents in perspective a high guide according to the invention. - The
figure 2 represents in perspective a sliding cupboard door equipped with a high guide according to the invention.

Globalement, le côté 2A de l'âme est muni d'un train de deux galets de roulement 5A, 5B montés sur une extrémité de la section élastique 4 en forme de C tandis que le côté 2B de l'âme est muni d'un seul galet de roulement 5C monté sur l'autre extrémité de la section élastique 4 en forme de C, les trois galets de roulement étant montés ici selon une disposition en triangle isocèle.Overall, the

Sur la
On comprend qu'en déplaçant la vis 8 en avant par exemple, on écarte les extrémités de la section élastique 4 en forme de C de sorte qu'on vient serrer davantage le guide 1 entre les bandes 10A, 10B du rail. Cette manipulation permet donc de régler le guide haut dans le rail pour éviter un flottement du guide haut dans le rail et donc pour diminuer les bruits lors du coulissement de la porte 9.It is understood that by moving the
