Abstract

Dispositif (1) de fermeture automatique d'un ouvrant coulissant, notamment une porte (2) de placard, comprenant au moins un boitier (4) fixé en bas ou en haut de la porte (2), et un axe sur lequel est montée une roue (3) coopérant avec un rail de guidage (5) de la porte (2), caractérisé en ce que la roue est intégrée au boitier (4) et est assujettie à un ressort spiral (6) dont une extrémité externe (6a) est solidaire d'un point fixe (7) du boitier (4), et dont l'autre extrémité (6b) est solidaire d'un point (8) de la roue (3), ou inversement, de manière que lors d'une rotation de celle-ci dans un sens d'ouverture de la porte (2) s'effectuant manuellement, le ressort (6) s'enroule et emmagasine de l'énergie, qu'il restitue à la roue (3) qui devient motrice, pour un retour en fermeture automatique de la porte (2).

Figure imgaf001
Device (1) for automatically closing a sliding leaf, in particular a door (2) of cupboard, comprising at least one housing (4) fixed at the bottom or top of the door (2), and an axis on which is mounted a wheel (3) cooperating with a guide rail (5) of the door (2), characterized in that the wheel is integrated in the housing (4) and is subject to a spiral spring (6), an outer end (6a ) is secured to a fixed point (7) of the housing (4), and whose other end (6b) is secured to a point (8) of the wheel (3), or vice versa, so that when a rotation thereof in a manually opening direction of the door (2), the spring (6) wraps and stores energy, which it returns to the wheel (3) which becomes motor, for a return in automatic closing of the door (2).
