Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a wall guide device for a sliding door, in accordance with the introduction to the main claim.
  • a sliding door is known to be used for many applications, such as closures for apertures in walls of common environments (dwellings), of sterile environments (such as those in hospitals, laboratories or the like) or of environments at controlled temperature and/or atmosphere, such as cold-storage rooms.
  • Such doors generally comprise a body with opposing flat surfaces defining an (inner) first face of the door which moves frontally to the wall and an outer second face distant from the wall, lateral faces connecting this first and second surface or face together, and a top side and bottom side which move along a plane or floor extending upwards from which there is the wall provided with the access aperture to said environment.
  • a seal element is usually present which, when the door is closed, rests against the wall in proximity to the aperture, to thus form a seal along the edge thereof.
  • the door generally moves along an upper guide (positioned to correspond with the upper side of the door) fixed to the wall or to an upper surface (ceiling) parallel to the floor, and along a lower guide which can be associated with the wall, more or less close to the floor.
  • the lower guide can be a guide associated with the floor.
  • the door is coupled to this lower guide by a pin, possibly associated with a bracket projecting from the body of the door and slidable within the guide itself.
  • This latter also presents in proximity to the aperture a terminal portion curved towards the wall and inclined to the floor, to guide the door during closure onto the aperture and to withdraw it therefrom during opening.
  • any seal element is hermetically pressed against the wall.
  • a terminal guide element associated with the floor or wall finally carries the door into its closure position against the wall and onto the aperture of this latter.
  • the ground lower guide (associated with the floor) has instead the problem of interfering with the movement of trucks which pass through the aperture in the wall, and can collect dirt.
  • DE25337665 describes a door slidable relative to the plane of a wall, in particular for vehicles; it is connected to a trolley slidable along a guide rigid with this wall via a double acting hinge member.
  • This hinge member comprises a first part fixed to the door at one end and hinged at a second end to a second part connected by an independent hinge to the trolley. This hinge member is therefore unable to rotate about the point at which it is fixed to the door.
  • the hinge member of the prior patent comprises a spring disposed within it to assume a position lying in the plane containing the two hinges of this member connecting its parts, when the door is closed onto the wall.
  • This spring is of considerable size, which affects the size of the hinge member.
  • DE2218678 describes a sliding door system in which two doors are mounted on parallel guide tracks. A first of these doors can move along only one track, while the second can pass from one track to the other by a mechanism comprising a pair of arms supporting the door and each hinged at a first end to this latter and at a second end to a support element slidable along one of these tracks. This is provided in union with each arm, and is connected to the support element.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a lower guide device of the wall type for a sliding door, which represents an improvement over existing similar devices.
  • a particular object of the device is to provide a small-dimension device of the aforesaid type which can be adapted to different door dimensions and sizes.
  • Another object is to provide a device of the aforesaid type which can be used on apertures which are not provided with a counter-frame for the sliding door, said device hence being universally usable independently of the type of construction of the wall (and aperture) along which the door slides.
  • Another object is to provide a device of the aforesaid type which enables the door to be withdrawn while being opened and during sliding, to a distance sufficient to prevent its inner first surface, or the seal element carried by it, from rubbing against the wall, to prevent damage to this surface or wear to said element.
  • a further object is to provide a device of the stated type which ensures hermetic closure of the wall aperture.
  • a further object is to provide a device of the stated type which is of adjustable assembly and use, to ensure simple utilization on every type of door and/or seal element.
  • a device according to the invention is indicated overall by 1 and is arranged to slidably secure a door 2 to a guide or wall lower guide element 3 associated with a wall 4 provided with an aperture 5 to be closed by said sliding door 2.
  • This latter comprises a body 8 having an inner first surface or face 9 facing the wall 4 and an outer surface or face 10 opposing the first.
  • the body 8 comprises vertical opposing lateral faces connecting the surfaces 9 and 10 together (only the face 11 is shown in the figures), an upper side and a lower side (neither shown), this latter being close to a surface or floor (also not shown) along which the door slides.
  • a seal element or gasket 13 of known type is associated with the inner surface 9 to sealedly close the aperture 5 (by deformedly resting on the wall 4) when the door is closed thereonto.
  • the guide 3 comprises a body 3K of small thickness substantially close to the diameter of a pin 15 of the device 1 which is movable (slidingly and about its longitudinal axis) within a guide recess 16 closed at a free end 17 of the guide by a closure piece 18.
  • the pin 15 can rotate within the guide 3 as will be described and as is apparent from Figure 4 .
  • the guide 3 is fixed to the wall 4 in known manner, for example by as screw or similar threaded piece 20.
  • the device 1 comprises a connection member 21 to connect the door 2 to the wall 4.
  • this member 21 comprises an L-shaped body 22 presenting a first and second free end 23 and 24.
  • the first end 23 is fixed to the pin 15, while a pin 26 is fixed to the other (second) end to rotatably connect the member 21 to the door 2.
  • the pin 26 is rigid with a support 27 presenting a flat portion 28 to be adjustably fixed, for example by screws 29 inserted through elongated holes 60 perpendicular to the longitudinal plane of the door, to the lateral face 11 of the door 2; from the portion 28 two parallel spaced elements 30 and 31 project, provided with coaxial holes 33 and 34 (containing members such as bearings or antifriction bushes) into which corresponding opposing ends 26A and 26B of the pin 26 are inserted. Said ends are axially locked in these holes by known restraining means, such as split rings or the like 35.
  • the pin 26 is fixed in known manner to the second end 24 of the body 22.
  • This end pertains to a first portion 22A of said body fixed adjustably to a second portion 22B of the body presenting the first end of this latter to which the pin 15is connected.
  • These first and second portions are connected together in an adjustable manner. The adjustment is achieved by providing in one of said portions (for example the second 22B) slots or elongated through holes 39 through which screws 40 are inserted into corresponding holes in the other portion (for example the first portion 22A), these screws being locked by nuts 41 (or by a plate with threaded holes) to hence clamp said portions one against the other.
  • the distance of the first portion 22A from the end 23 of the body 22 can be varied, hence varying the distance of the door 2 (rigid with this first portion 22A) from the wall 4 (to which the second portion 22B is secured by the pin 15 in the guide 3).
  • At least one elastic return element is provided about the pin 26.
  • this return element is defined by a pair of spiral springs 45, 46 disposed about the pin 26 in proximity to its opposing ends 26A, 26B.
  • Each spring 45, 46 comprises a first end 49 resting against the portion 28 of the support 27 and a second end 50 positioned along the second end 24 of the body 22.
  • the springs 45 and 46 urge it open, without force by the user.
  • the second portion 22B of the body 22 presents a travel stop 53 at its end 24 to block further door opening when in a position, parallel to the closed position (attained by a movement which maintains the door always parallel to itself), at a predetermined distance from the wall 4.
  • This opening is obtained by virtue of the rotation of the pins 15 and 26 respectively within the guide 3 and in the holes 33 and 34, as can be appreciated from the different positions assumed by the end 23 and the end 24 of the member 21 in Figures 3 and 4 .
  • This rotation brings said member from a position with the end 23 disposed in a plane inclined to the wall 5 to a position in which this end lies in a plane perpendicular to said wall, positions attained by said rotations of the pins 15 and 26.
  • a single elastic element can be used, for example a single spiral spring positioned about the pin 26 or another type of spring disposed between the body 22 and the door.
  • a wall lower guide device for a sliding door is obtained which is of very small overall dimensions compared with known guides, and is of easy and universal assembly (in this respect, the door does not require a backing frame on the wall).
  • the invention also enables amplification of the door movement relative to the wall, and allows easy adjustment of its open and closed position relative to be wall.
