Definitions
- the present invention relates to a wing sliding supporting device for a sliding door, or the like, which allows to fix the wing to a wall or to a structure of a piece of furniture in its upper part and which further allows the closing and opening movement by sliding along the plane of the wing.
- Many devices for supporting a sliding wing or door so that it is fixed with the upper part thereof to a building structure or to the body of a piece of furniture over the compartment or opening to be opened and closed are known.
- One type of device made so as to allow the wing to slide along the laying plane thereof so as to move between two extreme opening and closing positions is known.
- Such devices consist, in general, of one of more guides kinematically connected to one another in various manners, which combine the function of supporting the wing with that of sliding.
- Doors sliding along the plane thereof are used particularly in environments in which sufficient space for installing a door allowing the door, if it were of the type hinged to the wall, to turn about its hinges is not available. Furthermore, doors of this kind are used not only in working environments but, above all, in residential environments for reasons of appearance. Indeed, there are customers who prefer to have sliding doors instead of hinged doors in their homes considering the first more functional or of better appearance. However, many supporting and sliding mechanisms of the doors suggested in the prior art are not very suitable for residential use having been mainly designed for use in working or industrial environments.
- Partial extraction supporting devices which approximately consist of two parts reciprocally sliding by means of rails and pads or sliding wheels, one part of which is fixed to the wall and a second part of which is fixed to the wing, have the disadvantage that the wing they support must be wider than the width of the passage in order to cover the supporting and sliding device when the door is closed, otherwise parts of the mechanism would protrude from the side of the opening riser of the wing. Furthermore, when the wing is completely open, by width, the door occupies by several centimeters with opening from the side of the opening riser in order to provide a greater support to the wing.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a sliding wing supporting device which has a high loading capacity so as to be used also for heavy doors, which is simple to construct and which can be applied indifferently to fixtures the wing of which opens either rightwards or leftwards with respect to the opening.
- a sliding door wing supporting device for closing and opening a passage compartment which, in accordance with claim 1, defines a sliding direction of the supporting device and comprises a fixing plate, adapted to be fixed to a structure in which the passage compartment is present, constituting a first member of a first kinematic sliding pair, an intermediate rail, arranged by the side of the fixing plate, forming a second member of the first kinematic sliding pair and also forming a first member of a second kinematic sliding pair, an outer rail for fixing a wing of said sliding door, arranged by the side of the intermediate rail and forming a second member of the second kinematic sliding pair, the fixing plate having a maximum length equal to the length of the intermediate rail, and the outer rail having a length substantially equal to the intermediate rail in the sliding direction, wherein the first kinematic sliding pair allows the intermediate rail to slide with respect to the fixing plate along the sliding direction through first sliding means, and the second kinematic sliding pair allows the outer rail to slide
- the door supporting device of the invention thus consists in a telescopic mechanism consisting of two total extraction kinematic sliding pairs of the compartment to be closed, in which no predetermined opening sense is provided and which may be used for wings intended to open either rightwards or leftwards. It may be used for external wings hanging from a wall, without there being a protrusion of the mechanism from the door side when the door is closed.
- FIG. 1 there is shown the use of a sliding and supporting device of the invention, indicated globally by reference numeral 1, on a sliding door consisting of a single wing 4.
- a fixed guide or base rail 5 may be provided to improve stability and/or sliding of the door.
- the door 4 has the function of closing the passage compartment 3 in the building structure 2 by sliding along the laying plane thereof.
- the supporting device 1 is shown in greater detail in its position mounted on a wing 4, e.g. made of wood, in which a seat is made in the thickness of the door, e.g. by L-shape or C-shape milling or other method, to accommodate part of the supporting device 1 itself, thus reducing the protrusion of the door from the surface of the wall.
- the supporting device 1 is better described in greater detail in the following figures. It comprises a fixing plate 10, preferably having the shape of elongated parallelepiped with the length, in the sliding direction of the device, much longer than the other two directions (thickness and height), but other shapes of the device are possible providing they are structurally compatible with the intended use of the device and the width of the wing to be supported.
- the fixing plate 10 has, fixed thereto, wheels 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d and 14a, 14b, 14c, 14d which can turn about the axes thereof and which are grouped to form two friction pads.
- the wheels may be alternatively arranged aligned and grouped in different manner, preferably arranged at regular distances along the extension of the fixing plate 10.
- the fixing plate 10 also includes the presence of fixing means to the wall, not shown in detail in the figures, which may be chosen according to the weight of the door to be supported and to the material of the structure.
- the fixing plate 10 is fixed to the building wall by means of fixing means, such as nails, screws, glue or similar fixing means, while if the wall is made of wood the fixing means may be of the type most appropriate to this type of material.
- An intermediate rail 11 is arranged by the side of the plate 10 and is slidingly fixed to the latter.
- the fixing plate 10 works as sliding guide for the intermediate rail 11 by means of wheels 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d and 14a, 14b, 14c, 14d which are engaged in two parallel grooves 15 and 16 which guide them, determining the sliding direction of the entire device 1.
- the intermediate rail 11 slides along the longitudinal direction thereof defined by the two guides 15 and 16 with respect to the fixing plate 10.
- the plate 10 In mounted position on the wall the plate 10 remains immobile and the intermediate rail 11 may slide between two extreme positions defined by the stroke end stops 17 and 18 arranged on the opposite ends of the intermediate rail 11 on which the wheels of the fixing plate 10 stop at the two ends of the sliding stroke.
- the device 1 may be such that the position of all stroke end stops used thereon are adjustable in addition to being removable to facilitate the assembly and adjust the maximum stroke of the two pairs of kinematic sliding pairs which form it.
- the wheels of the fixing plate 10 are arranged so that during the sliding of the intermediate rail along the guides 15 and 16 the fixing plate 10 never protrudes from the ends of the rail 11, choosing in this case a particularly short length of the plate 10, e.g. a fraction of the length of the entire supporting device 1, considered in the direction of sliding.
- the intermediate rail 11 on the opposite side of which the grooves 15 and 16 are obtained, has a plurality of wheels 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d and 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d, grouped so as to form rolling pads.
- the figures show embodiments with pads formed by groups of four wheels, but also a lower or preferably higher number may be provided so as to have, for instance, pads consisting of six or eight wheels, although higher numbers of wheels are not excluded.
- This intermediate rail 11 has the shape of a very elongated parallelepiped with respect to width, the length of which is determined by the maximum width of the wing to be supported which, preferably, must cover the intermediate rail 11 when the door is closed.
- the supporting device 1 of the wing 4 comprises an outer rail 12 which is used to fix the wing 4.
- the outer rail 12 has the shape of an elongated parallelepiped and small thickness, of length substantially equal to the intermediate rail 11 which, on one side, has two longitudinal grooves 21 and 22 which constitute the guides.
- the intermediate rail 11 works, in turn, as an outer rail 12 by means of the kinematic coupling of the wheels 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d e 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d with the grooves 21 and 22 within which they slide.
- the maximum sliding of the outer rail 12 with respect to the intermediate rail 11 is determined by the end stops 23 and 24, which are preferably removable to allow easy assembly and disassembly of the two rails 11 and 12 on one another in addition to being as mentioned adjustable in position.
- the outer surface 25 of the outer rail 12 is flat to receive the surface of a wing 4, however also other different shapes from flat may be chosen if the shape is more appropriate for creating a shape or force coupling, shape and material of the door to be suspended.
- the wing 4 is fixed to the outer rail 12 by means of appropriate fixing means, not shown in the figures, chosen according to the type of material forming the wing, e.g. nails, screws, glue etc.
- the sliding guides 15 and 16 and the sliding means comprise, for example wheels or friction pads or a series of balls or other equivalent means are arranged only on the side of the intermediate rail 11, 11', 11" not in sight or in the intermediate rail surface portion 11, 11', 11" which always remains covered by the outer rail 12, 12', 12" also when the device 1 is in its maximum extension position the accumulation of dirt on the parts constituting the sliding means and the guides is greatly either avoided or reduced.
- the same advantage is provided for the particular conformation of the outer rail 12, 12', 12".
- the intermediate rail segment of length X is the maximum segment in which the device of the invention remains in sight and is, in all cases, smaller than the part remaining in sight when used on sliding doors devices of the prior art which show elements extending beyond at least the opening length of the door and sometimes extend further beyond.
- the device 1 In the open door position, as shown in figure 1 , corresponding to the position of the device 1 shown in figure 8 , the device 1 is only visible for a part of the intermediate rail 11 which covers the fixing plate 10 in the extended position corresponding to a length V, indicated in the figures.
- a length V is defined by the position of the outermost wheels 19a and 19c and which, in the maximum extension position of the two intermediate 11 and outer rails 12, abut against the end stop 23 of the outer rail 12.
- Stroke stop means which are not constituted by the friction pads but which are separated therefrom may be provided.
- Figure 8 also shows by how much the intermediate rail 11 protrudes beyond the fixing plate 10.
- the segment of rail 11 which protrudes beyond the end of the fixing plate 10 has a length X comprised between 1/3 and 2/3 of the length of the intermediate rail 11, and even still more preferably equal to half the length of the intermediate rail 11.
- the figure 7 shows instead the position of the supporting device 1 corresponding to the closed door position.
- the intermediate 11 and outer 12 rails are covered perfectly also because they are preferably, but not necessarily of the same length.
- the relative position between the fixing plate 10 and the intermediate rail 11 is with the plate resting by abutting on the end stop 18 opposite to the stop 17 against which it rests in the maximum opening position of the door.
- the intermediate rail 11 and the outer rail 12 fixing the wing are made of metallic material chosen according to the rigidity and strength required by the supporting device and, not last, also according to the appearance required by the market.
- the fixing plate 10, may be made of either the same or different material, while the plate 10 remains visible when the device 1 is fitted on the wall 2, with the door 4 fitted on the device 1.
- the three main elements 10, 11, 12 may be made by means of machining of various type, including milling, molding, extrusion, fusion etc. according to the use which is required and to the appearance effect which derives after assembly.
- the embodiment in figure 9 shows a supporting device 1 like the one described above to which a closing or opening movement damping device 31 is associated, according to the position in which it is arranged.
- a closing or opening movement damping device 31 is associated, according to the position in which it is arranged.
- Such a door sliding damping device is actuated by an element 3 fixed to the building structure or to the fixing plate 10 or to the outer rail 12 in the position most suited to damping.
- FIG. 10 A further embodiment which may be combined to each of the embodiments of the supporting device 1 already described above, by either partially or totally eliminating the elements which have the same functions, is shown in figures 10 and 11 .
- the device 1 instead of comprising sliding wheels which allow the intermediate rail to slide with respect to the fixing plate and the outer rail to slide with respect to the intermediate rail, includes the replacement of the wheels with friction pads 40, 41.
- These friction pads 40 and 41 fixed to the plate 10' and inserted in guides 45 and 46 and/or central guides of appropriate shape, visible in the section view in figure 11 , obtained in the body of the rail 11', allowing the intermediate rail 11' to slide in relation to the fixing plate 10'.
- the pads have further central T-shaped sliding guides 36, 37, 38, 39 in the middle of the guide transversal to the extension plane of the wing which contribute to the vertical support of the wing 4.
- a series of balls 50, 51, 60, 61 are provided which are inserted in specific guides 52, 53, 54, 55, 62, 63, 64, 65 obtained in part in the thickness of the fixing plate 10", in part in the thickness of the intermediate rail 11 " and in part in the outer rail 12".
- This embodiment shows in section in figure 12 and, also in this case, the balls allow the relative sliding between the intermediate rail 11" and the fixing plate 10" and between the outer rail 12" and the intermediate rail 11 ".
- the pads 40, 41, 42, 43 are made of specific low coefficient self-lubricating material so as to allow a relative sliding of the various sliding parts without particular effort of intensity similar to that needed when wheels and balls are used.
- the embodiments described above may also be combined in variable manner to one another, choosing the various sliding means described or other equivalent means not described in detail, and therefore it is possible to arrange the pads in various manners consisted by wheels along with friction pads and/or rolling balls.
- Length V is preferably chosen in case of use of the support device for the doors of homes, for structural reasons equal to, or close to the length of the fixing plate 10, 10', 10".
- This length V corresponds to the part of intermediate rail 11, 11', 11" which remains in sight, not covered by the body of the door 4, when the door is open.
- the length V of the portion of intermediate rail 11, 11', 11" in sight is determined by appropriately positioning the stroke end stops 23 on the intermediate rail which abut against the wheels 19a, 19c when the outer rail 12, 12', 12" is in its maximum extension with respect to the intermediate rail 11, 11', 11 ".
- the position of the stroke end stops 23 along the outer rail and/or the position of the wheels 19a and 19c along the intermediate rail may be adjustable so as to determine the length V of the segment of intermediate rail which remains in sight.
- this length V is comprised between 1/3 and 2/3 of the total length of the intermediate rail 11, 11', 11", and is generally equal to the length of the fixing plate 10, 10', 10" for reasons of structural stability of the door. Even more preferably, the V is equal to approximately half the length of the intermediate rail 11, 11', 11 ".
- the fixing plate 10"' has a portion 100 of length which corresponds to the plate 10 in figure 1 , having the same supporting functions, and additionally has a second portion 101 which extends beyond the wheel assembly 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d by a given length chosen, for example, according to appearance criteria.
- the portion 101 which remains covered when the door 4 is closed and remains uncovered when the door 4 is in the open position and the intermediate rail 11 is entirely extracted produces the appearance effect of providing continuity of the structural element arranged over the passage compartment, if this is preferred by the buyer.
- this embodiment of the invention is entirely equivalent to that described above, being the opening width of the intermediate 11 and outer rails 12 determined only by the position in which the stroke ends 18 and the wheels 13a and 13c are arranged.
- the fixing plate 10"' in the retracted position the fixing plate 10"', the intermediate rail 11 and the outer rail 12 have essentially the same length, as shown in figure 14 or have slightly different lengths.
- a further embodiment of the supporting and sliding device of the invention includes the presence of mechanical catches operating by friction or snapping.
- Such an embodiment, two embodiments of which are shown in figures 16a and 16b may be used in combination with each of the other embodiments of the device of the invention.
- a first embodiment of the catch in figure 16a is constituted by a piston or pad 71 which is maintained in a seat obtained in the body of the intermediate rail 11 by a plaque 72.
- the spring 70 presses on the pad 71 and when it comes into contact with one of the friction wheels of the outer rail 12, or of the fixing plate 10, not shown here, the sliding of the intermediate rail makes the wheel go beyond the wheel against which it abuts, thus generating a block which prevents the door from moving from the open or closed position in which it is in that moment.
- a pressure simply needs to be exerted by hand against the door, which overcomes the pressure force exerted by the spring 70 on the pad 71 which overcomes the wheel against which it abuts in other sense.
- the catch shown in figure 16b consists of a disc 73, e.g. made of rubber or natural rubber or other material with a high friction coefficient, fixed to the intermediate rail 11 covered by a plaque, which engages a surface segment of a guide of the outer rail 12 or of the adjacent fixing plate preventing an undesired sliding of the door.
- Figure 16c is a partial section view of a detail of the device of the invention showing the catch of the embodiment in figure 16b in the braked engaged position.
- the disc 73 presses on the wheel 41 c, which is fixed to the fixing plate 10, thus braking the rotation thereof.
- the disc 73 makes the reciprocal sliding of the fixing plate 10 and of the intermediate rail 11 subject to a force which exceeds the friction forces between disc 73 and wheel 14c.
- the pad 71 or the disc 73 are jammed in specific cavities obtained in specific protrusions made in appropriate points of the surface of one of the elements of the aforesaid devices.
- stops 71, 72 and 73, 74 which in these figures are advantageously arranged in chosen points of the intermediate 11 and outer 12 rail, are activated when the door is in the all open and/or all closed state, so that in case of imperfect leveling of the supporting device the door does not move along moving from the mentioned end positions due to its weight, but it is easily moveable by a person.
- the catches can also have calibration devices of the spring 70, e.g. a register which works on the spring 70 by increasing or decreasing the preload of the same in order to increase or decrease the braking force.
- the braking force between the elements of the device 1 is adjusted by replacing parts 73 or 70 or by changing its shape.
- catch just described may be used both by applying them in different positions or on different faces of the fixing plate, of the intermediate rail or of the outer rail, by preferably choosing a position in which the catch remains not in sight when the supporting device is in the all extended position or all retracted position when it is mounted on the door.
- the device allows easy application to standard thickness doors made of wood without there being thickening on the upper edge of the door.
- the device allows total opening of the door with respect to the door passage compartment or opening thus the wing does not engage at all the passage opening on the side of the opening riser with the door all open.
- the device of the invention is that of having a door centered in closed position with respect to the passage opening.
- the width of the door exceeds that of the door compartment only by few millimeters on each side, otherwise the door can be dimensioned as wide as the width of the device of the invention or may be a slightly wider or slightly shorter according to needs.
- the end user may have sliding door or wing made of any material with the two "joined" vertical side edges, i.e. not provided with "L” or “C”-shaped grooved sides, thus it is possible to cover, on the sides of the wing, the part of the supporting and sliding device which is fixed to the wing itself.
- the device after having been mounted on the wall and the door is fixed thereto, occupies only approximately half the width of the door passage, and is thus particular acceptable from the point of view of appearance by the market because the plate fixed to the wall is not as long as the length of the device in folded position, and, as a whole, is particularly compact with respect to the devices of the prior art.
- the device of the invention may be used to support doors made of wood or glass or metal or any other material with which doors of homes or furniture are made. According to the type of material used for the fixtures, the fixing means provided on the fixing rail may be different and the flexibility offered by the supporting device of the invention in use is apparent to a person skilled in the art.
- Another advantage of the device is that, due to its construction simplicity, it may be provided with mechanical catches like those described above which are not very conspicuous and which are simple to mount, thus ensuring a greater safety in sliding door activation.
- a decelerated recalling mechanism can be added on the sliding door supporting device, as described above, which is activated in the final closing and/or maximum opening position of the door for reducing the violence of the collisions which are produced during the final closing or opening.
- a further advantage is that of being able to use the sliding of the reciprocal sliding of the wheels/bearing with tapered ring for stabilizing the movement on the profiles provided with specifically shaped guides or ball systems or friction pads as explained above to reduce production costs, if needed.
