• a second stop B2 limits the movement of the locking plate. If the actuator continues to push the chain, then the effect is to move the upper horizontal frame away from the upper horizontal beam, causing the movable panel to tilt gradually.
• the upper part of the movable panel is no longer in contact with the frame.
• it is shown in a single plane of the elements (18 ') belonging to the vertical section plane and the other elements belonging to a section plane comprising the pivot axis ⁇ 1 - ⁇ and parallel to the movable panel.
• this is the role of the second spring 56 * whose stiffness must be sufficiently high so that the elastic force caused by this spring is greater than the component of the weight of the panel brought back on the chain, taking into account the reaction of the pivot axis. Pivoting angles remain low (10 to 30 ° maximum), this dimensioning constraint is easily achievable.
• Ventilated hatches are in a "sealed" position when the movable panel is semi-open.
• the ventilation means can be activated or partially or completely closed by other means (such as the upper amount of the movable panel ). This has no effect, in fact, when the mobile panel is open or ajar ventilation function is provided by the opening of the panel.
• the different states of the closure device are determined by simple positions of the movable carriage relative to the frame of the closure device.
• it is easy to motorize such a closure device it is sufficient to motorize the movement of the carriage with the aid of the drive device and to teach the drive device the different particular positions of the carriage with respect to the frame which allow to define the desired states of the closure device.
• the control device 10 described above allows to maneuver and lock in position the movable panel. Nevertheless, the invention also relates to a control device whose function is only to maneuver the movable panel using a drive chain drive pushed and pulled. The invention further relates to a control device whose function is only to lock the movable panel in position using a chain drive device pushed and pulled. Thanks to the invention, the ventilation means is activated by the same means as those activating the locking means and / or by the same means as those resulting in the closing or opening of the movable panel.
• the chain 51 can be replaced by another flexible element pushed or pulled like a cable.
• the use of a flexible element pushed or pulled limits congestion.
• a closed chain can also be used to move the movable carriage.
• control device is integrated inside the closure device, the chain, the mobile carriage and the drive device being for example arranged inside a post vertical and horizontal crosspieces of a sliding window.
• these three elements are integrated into a subassembly attached to the frame of an existing sliding window. It is sufficient to have two stops on the movable panel so that it can be driven by the movable carriage while allowing relative movement of the movable carriage relative to the movable panel.
• the ventilation flap is operated during relative movement of the movable carriage relative to the movable panel. It can then cover an air duct outside the sliding window, for example made above the window, in the wall surrounding the window. Such an arrangement is particularly suitable for renovation and it has the advantage of maintaining the thermal and sound insulation properties of the initial closure device.
• the terms "first”, “second”, “third” and “fourth” have a distinctive meaning; they have no temporal or spatial meaning.
• the carriage is intended for:
