Description

La présente invention concerne une porte destinée à équiper un emplacement de douche.The present invention relates to a door for fitting a shower location.

Dans le but de limiter, voire supprimer, les éclaboussures et autres projections d'eau pouvant toucher les abords directs d'un emplacement de douche lors d'une prise de douche, il est usuel d'installer, autour de ces emplacements, des parois de protection. En complément à ces parois, un emplacement de douche est également équipé, ceci pour le rendre accéssible à l'utilisateur tout en garantissant la protection contre les éclaboussures, d'une porte de douche.In order to limit or even eliminate the splashing and other splashing of water that may affect the direct surroundings of a shower site during a shower, it is customary to install, around these locations, walls protection. In addition to these walls, a shower area is also equipped, to make it accessible to the user while ensuring protection against splashing, a shower door.

Ce type d'installation comprend généralement un panneau de protection transparent relié par l'intermédiare de profilés sur une des parois de l'emplacement de douche. De manière à permettre de libérer l'accés à l'emplacement de douche, le panneau est articulé par rapport à la paroi. Cette articulation est généralement réalisée par l'utilisation d'au moins deux profilés, le premier profilé, dit profilé mural, servant de support mural et le second, supportant le panneau, tout en étant articulé sur le premier.This type of installation generally includes a transparent protective panel connected through profiles on one of the walls of the shower location. In order to allow free access to the shower location, the panel is articulated relative to the wall. This articulation is generally achieved by the use of at least two profiles, the first section, said wall profile, serving as a wall support and the second, supporting the panel, while being articulated on the first.

Une installation de type emplacement douche, lorsqu'elle est réalisée dans des habitations anciennes, ne présente que très rarement des ouvertures standard, une bonne verticalité des parois de l'emplacement de la douche et une bonne horizontalité de ce même emplacement. Ce type de défaut est généralement corrigé, soit par une combinaison de cales, soit par la réalisation de porte sur mesure. Dans les deux cas, cela occasionne une augmentation sensible des coûts et du temps d'intallation, ceci pour une installation qui ne donnera aucune possibilité de réglage ultérieur.A shower-type installation, when it is carried out in old dwellings, only very rarely presents standard openings, a good verticality of the walls of the shower location and a good horizontality of this same location. This type of defect is usually corrected, either by a combination of shims, or by the realization of customized door. In both cases, this causes a significant increase in costs and installation time, this for an installation that will not give any possibility of subsequent adjustment.

Il est connu de l'état de la technique que l'adaptation d'une porte destinée à un emplacement de douche sur une ouverture non standard peut également être réalisée en utilisant un profilé intermédiaire, de forme générale en U, entre le panneau et le second profilé. Avec une telle installation, le panneau est collé à l'intérieur du profilé intermédiaire de manière à compenser l'écart des dimensions de l'ouverture de l'emplacement de douche vis-à-vis du standard. Une telle installation, induit, de par la présence d'un profilé supplémentaire, une esthétique réduite puisqu'un tel montage n'a pas été prévu lors de la conception de la porte. Le montage ne permet pas un réglage ultérieur et donc toute correction après le montage nécessite un décollage du panneau pouvant occasionner un endomagement de ce dernier.It is known from the state of the art that the adaptation of a door intended for a shower location to a non-standard opening can also be carried out by using an intermediate profile, generally U-shaped, between the panel and the door. second section. With such an installation, the panel is glued inside the intermediate profile so as to compensate for the difference in the dimensions of the opening of the shower location vis-à-vis the standard. Such an installation induces, because of the presence of an additional profile, a reduced aesthetic since such an assembly was not envisaged during the design of the door. The assembly does not allow a subsequent adjustment and therefore any correction after assembly requires a takeoff of the panel may cause damage to the latter.

La présente invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients. Le problème technique à la base de l'invention consiste donc à fournir une porte pour un emplacement de douche adaptable sur des emplacements de douche non standard ceci avec des moyens de réglage réversibles.The present invention aims to remedy these disadvantages. The technical problem underlying the invention is therefore to provide a door for a shower location adaptable to non-standard shower locations this with reversible adjustment means.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne une porte destinée à équiper un emplacement de douche comprenant :

  • un premier profilé destiné à être fixé selon une direction sensiblement verticale sur une paroi de l'emplacement de douche,
  • un second profilé monté en rotation sur le premier profilé autour de l'axe longitudinal de celui-ci,
  • au moins un panneau de protection monté sur le deuxième profilé, le panneau est monté avec possibilité de coulissement sur le deuxième profilé, sensiblement perpendiculairement à l'axe de celui-ci, et le montage entre le panneau et le deuxième profilé comporte des moyens de réglage de l'angle entre ce profilé et le bord vertical correspondant du panneau.
For this purpose, the invention relates to a door for equipping a shower location comprising:
  • a first section intended to be fixed in a substantially vertical direction on a wall of the shower location,
  • a second profile rotatably mounted on the first profile around the longitudinal axis thereof,
  • at least one protection panel mounted on the second profile, the panel is slidably mounted on the second profile, substantially perpendicular to the axis thereof, and the mounting between the panel and the second section comprises means for adjusting the angle between this profile and the corresponding vertical edge of the panel.

Un tel montage du panneau sur le second profilé permet, en déplaçant le panneau par rapport au profilé, d'adapter la largeur de la porte à la largeur de l'ouverture à équiper pour ainsi éviter tout jour préjudiciable pour la protection des abords de l'emplacement de la douche. Le réglage de l'angle permet de parfaire cette adaptation.Such mounting of the panel on the second section allows, by moving the panel relative to the profile, to adapt the width of the door to the width of the opening to be equipped to avoid any day detrimental to the protection of the surroundings of the location of the shower. The adjustment of the angle makes it possible to perfect this adaptation.

Avantageusement, le second profilé comporte au moins deux glissières parallèles orientées perpendiculairement à l'axe du profilé dont chacune sert au montage d'un coulisseau sur lequel est montée une pièce de fixation du panneau, des moyens de blocage étant prévus pour réaliser le blocage de chaque coulisseau dans la position souhaitée de l'écran..Advantageously, the second profile comprises at least two parallel rails oriented perpendicularly to the axis of the profile, each of which serves to mount a slide on which is mounted a fastener of the panel, locking means being provided to achieve the blocking of each slider in the desired position of the screen ..

L'utilisation de glissières coopérant avec des coulisseaux pour le montage du panneau sur second profilé permet un réglage précis à la fois des dimensions de la porte et de l'angle de la porte vis-à-vis de l'emplacement de douche. Les moyens de blocage permettent, une fois le réglage réalisé, de fixer le panneau de façon réversible.The use of slides cooperating with sliders for mounting the panel on the second section allows precise adjustment of both the dimensions of the door and the angle of the door vis-à-vis the shower location. The locking means allow, once the adjustment is made, to fix the panel reversibly.

Préférentiellement, chaque pièce de fixation comprend un doigt fixé transversalement sur le coulisseau destiné, à traverser un orifice ménagé dans le panneau.Preferably, each fixing piece comprises a finger fixed transversely on the slide intended to pass through an orifice in the panel.

De tels doigts permettent un maintien fixe du panneau sur les coulisseaux tout en offrant la possibilité de rotation un panneau vis-à-vis de ces doigts. Une telle possibilité permet le réglage angulaire du panneau par rapport aux glissières et donc au second profilé.Such fingers allow a fixed retention of the panel on the slides while providing the possibility of rotation a panel vis-à-vis these fingers. Such a possibility allows the angular adjustment of the panel relative to the slides and thus to the second profile.

De manière avantageuse, les moyens de blocage comprennent un patin d'appui destinée à prendre appui sur la face du panneau opposée à celle tournée vers la glissière, ce patin comportant des éléments de fixation sur une glissière.Advantageously, the locking means comprise a bearing pad intended to bear against the face of the panel opposite that facing the slide, this pad having fastening elements on a slide.

L'utilisation de patins d'appui offre une répartition des forces d'appui sur une surface importante du panneau limitant ainsi les contraintes mécaniques appliquées sur ce dernier. Les moyens de fixation permettent de pérenniser les réglages réalisés entre le panneau et le second profilé.The use of support pads provides a distribution of the bearing forces on a large surface of the panel thus limiting the mechanical stresses applied to the latter. The fixing means make it possible to perpetuate the adjustments made between the panel and the second section.

Le patin comprend un embout fixé sur la glissière au-delà du panneau et en ce que, le patin sert d'appui d'une patte qui est traversée par une vis et qui est maintenue contrainte contre le patin lorsque la vis est vissée dans un trou taraudé ménagé dans le doigt.The pad comprises a tip attached to the slideway beyond the panel and in that, the pad serves as support for a leg which is traversed by a screw and which is held against the constraint of the shoe when the screw is screwed into a Tapped hole in the finger.

Avantageusement, le patin comporte une rainure longitudinale s'étendant parallèlement à l'axe de la glissière.Advantageously, the pad has a longitudinal groove extending parallel to the axis of the slide.

Un tel ménagement permet, lors du déplacement du coulisseau dans la rainure de la glissière, à la vis de fixation du patin de se déplacer dans la lumière de celui-ci.Such care allows, during the movement of the slide in the groove of the slide, the fixing screw of the pad to move in the light thereof.

De manière avantageuse, la glissière comporte une rainure et la glissière est équipée de par et d'autre de la rainure de cales d'appui souples.Advantageously, the slide has a groove and the slide is equipped with the groove of flexible support wedges by and by.

Ces cales, placées de part et d'autre de la rainure, permettent de réduire les contraintes mécaniques exercées sur le panneau limitant ainsi les risques d'endommagement de ce dernier lors de l'installation de la porte sur un emplacement de douche.These shims, placed on either side of the groove, reduce the mechanical stresses exerted on the panel thus limiting the risk of damage to the latter when installing the door on a shower location.

Préférentiellement, les extrémités de l'axe de pivotement du deuxième profilé sur le premier profilé sont engagées chacune dans une lumière horizontale et orientée perpendiculairement au plan d'appui du premier profilé sur la paroi de fixation, des moyens étant prévus pour réaliser le blocage de chaque extrémité dans la position choisie.Preferably, the ends of the pivot axis of the second profile on the first profile are each engaged in a horizontal light and oriented perpendicularly to the bearing plane of the first section on the fixing wall, means being provided to achieve the locking of each end in the chosen position.

Un tel montage autorise un réglage de l'angle l'axe de pivotement entre les deux profilés permettant ainsi de régler la verticalité de l'axe de pivotement, ceci, de par l'existence des moyens de blocage, de façons pérenne. Ce réglage pérennisé permet de rendre l'ouverture stable limitant ainsi les ouvertures non volontaire de la porte.Such an arrangement allows an adjustment of the angle of the pivot axis between the two sections thus making it possible to adjust the verticality of the pivot axis, this being because of the existence of the locking means in perennial ways. This permanent adjustment makes it possible to make the opening stable thus limiting the non-voluntary openings of the door.

Le second profilé présente une forme générale en U réalisé en deux parties dont la première partie comporte une branche du U, la face intérieure de la branche étant équipée des glissières et la deuxième partie qui, destinée à être fixée sur la première partie, forme le fond et la seconde branche du U.The second profile has a generally U-shaped shape made in two parts, the first part comprises a branch of the U, the inner face of the branch being equipped with the slides and the second part which, intended to be fixed on the first part, forms the background and the second branch of the U.

Un tel montage permet un accès aisé aux glissières facilitant ainsi le réglage du montage du panneau sur le second profilé.Such an assembly allows easy access to the slideways thus facilitating adjustment of the mounting of the panel on the second section.

Cette disposition des pivots 6 sur les pièces de support 10 forme l'articulation pivotante entre le premier 1 et le second profilé 2. L'axe de rotation de l'articulation ainsi formée peut être réglé en déplaçant respectivement, les pivots 6 et les pièces de support 10 dans les lumières 5,14 des pièces d'embouts 4,13 du respectivement premier 1 et second profilé 2. On peut ainsi régler la verticalité de l'axe de rotation en corrigeant une possible imperfection de la verticalité de la paroi sur laquelle est installé le premier profilé 1. Les vis de blocage 9, 17, présentes sur les deux types de pièces d'embout 4,13, permettent de fixer ce réglage.Thus during the mounting of the second section 2 on the first section 1, the two types of end pieces 4,13 are respectively placed on the ends of the corresponding profile section 1,2. The profiles 1, 2 are then engaged one inside the other, the pivots 6 and the support pieces 10 cooperating while being engaged respectively in the end pieces 4, 13 respectively of the first 1 and the second section 2. This arrangement of the pivots 6 on the support pieces 10 forms the pivoting joint between the first 1 and the second profile 2. The axis of rotation of the hinge thus formed can be adjusted by moving respectively the pivots 6 and the parts support 10 in the slots 5, 14 of the end pieces 4, 13 of the first and second profiles respectively 2. It is thus possible to adjust the verticality of the axis of rotation by correcting a possible imperfection of the verticality of the wall on which is installed the first section 1. The locking screws 9, 17, present on the two types of tip pieces 4,13, allow to set this setting.

La figure 4 décrit le montage du panneau 3 sur le second profilé 2. Ce montage est réalisé sur la première partie 11 du second profilé 2. Il comprend trois glissières horizontales 18 fixés sur le second profilé 2 par l'intermédiaire de boulons et placées respectivement sur le bas, le centre et le haut du second profilé 2. Chaque glissière 18 comprend une rainure 19 ainsi que deux cales souples 20 placées de part et d'autre de la rainure 19. Un coulisseau 21 est engagé coulissant dans la rainure 19 de chaque glissière 18. Chaque coulisseau 21 comprend un doigt 22 qui est taraudé en son centre et qui est destiné à être engagé dans un orifice 23 correspondant sur le panneau 3. Une fois introduit dans chaque glissière 18, les coulisseaux 21 sont maintenus dans les glissières 18 par, du coté destiné à recevoir le panneau 3, le rebord du second profilé 2 et du coté opposée, par des pièces de butée 24 montées vissées sur chaque glissière 18.The figure 4 describes the mounting of the panel 3 on the second section 2. This assembly is performed on the first portion 11 of the second section 2. It comprises three horizontal rails 18 fixed on the second section 2 by means of bolts and placed respectively on the bottom , the center and the top of the second profile 2. Each slide 18 comprises a groove 19 and two flexible wedges 20 placed on either side of the groove 19. A slide 21 is slidably engaged in the groove 19 of each slide 18 Each slider 21 comprises a finger 22 which is threaded at its center and which is intended to be engaged in a corresponding orifice 23 on the panel 3. Once introduced into each slide 18, the sliders 21 are held in the slideways 18 by on the side intended to receive the panel 3, the flange of the second section 2 and the opposite side, by stop pieces 24 mounted screwed on each slide 18.

Sur chaque coulisseau 21 est monté, un patin 25 et une patte d'appui 26. Le montage de ces deux pièces 25,26 sur le coulisseau 21 est réalisé par une vis de serrage 27 qui, passant au centre d'ouvertures ménagées dans ces deux pièces 25, 26, est vissée dans le trou taraudé du doigt 22 du coulisseau 21. C'est le serrage de cette vis 27 qui réalise la force d'appui du patin 25 et de la patte 26, sur le panneau 3 et le coulisseau 21. L'ouverture ménagée dans chaque patin 25 est une rainure longitudinale 28 qui permet, lors du réglage de la position du panneau 3 sur le second profilé 2, le déplacement de la vis 27 et de la patte d'appui 26 lors du glissement du coulisseau 21 dans la glissière 18. Chaque patin 25 est également muni, comme illustré sur la figure 6 d'un embout 29 qui vient se fixer au moyen de vis sur la pièce de butée 24. Chaque patte d'appui 26 vient s'emboiter sur le patin 25 correspondant. Elles sont munies, en leur centre, d'une ouverture sur laquelle vient s'appuyer chaque vis de serrage 29.On each slider 21 is mounted, a shoe 25 and a support lug 26. The mounting of these two parts 25,26 on the slider 21 is achieved by a clamping screw 27 which, passing through the center of openings in these two pieces 25, 26, is screwed into the threaded hole of the finger 22 of the slider 21. It is the tightening of this screw 27 which carries the bearing force of the pad 25 and the tab 26, on the panel 3 and the slider 21. The opening in each slider 25 is a longitudinal groove 28 which, when adjusting the position of the panel 3 on the second section 2, allows the displacement of the screw 27 and the support lug 26 during the sliding of the slider 21 in the slide 18. Each pad 25 is also provided, as illustrated in FIG. figure 6 a tip 29 which is fixed by means of screws on the abutment piece 24. Each support lug 26 comes to fit on the pad 25 corresponding. They are provided at their center with an opening on which each clamping screw 29 is supported.

Lors du montage du panneau 3 sur le second profilé 2, les doigts 22 des coulisseaux 21 sont introduits dans les orifices 23 du panneau 3, les glissières 18, équipées des cales souples 20, des coulisseaux 21 et des pièces de butée 24, ayant été préalablement installées sur le second profilé 2. Les patins 25 et les pattes d'appui 26 sont ensuite fixés sur les doigts 22 des coulisseaux 21 par les vis de serrage 29, ceci avec un enserrement limité de manière à laisser coulisser les coulisseaux 21. Le réglage de la porte aux dimensions et à l'angle voulus est alors réalisé, ceci en glissant les coulisseaux 21 aux emplacements adéquats. Le réglage effectué, les vis de serrage 29 sont alors vissées de manière à fixer la position du panneau 3 vis-à-vis du second profilé 2. Ce montage est finalisé par la fixation, au moyen de vis 30, de la deuxième partie 12 du second profilé 2 sur la première partie 11.When mounting the panel 3 on the second section 2, the fingers 22 of the sliders 21 are introduced into the orifices 23 of the panel 3, the slides 18, equipped with the flexible wedges 20, the sliders 21 and stop pieces 24, having been previously installed on the second section 2. The pads 25 and the support lugs 26 are then fixed on the fingers 22 of the sliders 21 by the clamping screws 29, this with a constriction limited so as to slide the sliders 21. adjustment of the door to the desired size and angle is then achieved, this by sliding the sliders 21 to the appropriate locations. The adjustment made, the tightening screws 29 are then screwed so as to fix the position of the panel 3 vis-à-vis the second profile 2. This assembly is finalized by fixing, by means of screws 30, the second portion 12 of the second section 2 on the first part 11 .
