Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de couverture d'une surface extérieure, telle une terrasse.The present invention relates to a device for covering an outer surface, such as a terrace.

Mais plus particulièrement, l'invention est relative à un dispositif de couverture permettant d'assurer une protection variable suivant les conditions climatiques. En effet, il est appréciable de pouvoir adapter la protection en fonction de l'inclinaison du soleil ou de retirer le dispositif de couverture lorsque la pluie a cessé.But more particularly, the invention relates to a cover device for providing a variable protection according to the weather conditions. Indeed, it is appreciable to be able to adapt the protection according to the inclination of the sun or to remove the cover device when the rain has stopped.

Un premier dispositif de l'art antérieur couramment utilisé pour remplir ces fonctions prend la forme d'un store extérieur comprenant un élément de couverture enroulable autour d'un axe d'enroulement.A first device of the prior art commonly used to perform these functions takes the form of an external blind comprising a covering element wound around a winding axis.

Une fois déroulé, l'élément de couverture peut se situer dans un plan horizontal ou dans un plan légèrement incliné par rapport à l'horizontale.Once unwound, the cover element may be in a horizontal plane or in a plane slightly inclined relative to the horizontal.

Ce store extérieur est généralement fixé le long de la façade extérieure du bâtiment ou de l'habitation devant lequel ou laquelle se trouve la surface extérieure à couvrir, l'axe d'enroulement étant maintenu par des supports rapportés sur la façade extérieure.This outer awning is generally fixed along the outer facade of the building or the house in front of which is the outer surface to be covered, the winding axis being maintained by supports reported on the outer facade.

Afin de faire varier la surface couverte, l'élément de couverture est déroulé ou enroulé par des moyens d'entraînement électrique ou plus simplement à l'aide d'une manivelle.In order to vary the covered area, the cover element is unwound or wound by electric drive means or simply by means of a crank.

Selon un premier inconvénient des dispositifs du type store extérieur, l'élément de couverture ne peut être retiré qu'en direction de l'axe d'enroulement, soit dans la largeur de la surface à couvrir.According to a first disadvantage of the outer awning type devices, the cover element can only be removed in the direction of the winding axis, or in the width of the surface to be covered.

Par conséquent, il n'est pas possible de couvrir une zone éloignée dans la largeur de la surface extérieure sans couvrir la zone la plus proche de la façade et de l'axe d'enroulement de l'élément de couverture.Therefore, it is not possible to cover an area remote in the width of the outer surface without covering the area closest to the facade and the winding axis of the cover element.

Selon un autre inconvénient, ces dispositifs du type store extérieur ne permettent pas d'adapter la longueur de l'élément couvrant.According to another drawback, these external blind type devices do not allow to adapt the length of the covering element.

Donc, il n'est pas possible de découvrir totalement une première partie prise dans la longueur de la surface extérieure tout en maintenant l'autre partie couverte.Therefore, it is not possible to fully discover a first portion taken in the length of the outer surface while maintaining the other portion covered.

Un deuxième dispositif de l'art antérieur permettant d'adapter la protection aux conditions extérieures est décrit dans le brevet français FR-2.935.723 .A second device of the prior art for adapting the protection to external conditions is described in the French patent FR-2935723 .

Le dispositif de couverture décrit dans ce document FR-2.935.723 comprend des volets orientables montés en rotation autour de leurs axes longitudinaux et rapportés parallèlement sur un cadre porteur.The cover device described in this document FR-2935723 comprises orientable flaps mounted in rotation about their longitudinal axes and reported in parallel on a support frame.

Afin de former une couverture variant entre une configuration fermée, étanche et translucide, et une configuration opaque en passant par des configurations ouvertes et partiellement opaques, chaque volet comprend un profilé en matériau translucide s'étendant le long d'un axe longitudinal autour duquel ledit volet est monté en rotation, et au moins une lame en matériau opaque montée en rotation par rapport audit volet le long d'un axe longitudinal parallèle à l'axe longitudinal du profilé.In order to form a cover varying between a closed, sealed and translucent configuration, and an opaque configuration through open and partially opaque configurations, each shutter comprises a profile of translucent material extending along a longitudinal axis about which said shutter is rotatably mounted, and at least one blade of opaque material mounted to rotate relative to said shutter along a longitudinal axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the profile.

Bien que permettant de mieux adapter la protection aux conditions d'ensoleillement par un agencement discontinu, ce deuxième dispositif de l'art antérieur présente sensiblement les mêmes inconvénients que le premier dispositif de l'art antérieur.Although allowing a better adaptation of the protection to sunlight conditions by a discontinuous arrangement, this second device of the prior art has substantially the same disadvantages as the first device of the prior art.

En effet, il présente aussi une surface de protection non modifiable en longueur ou en largeur.Indeed, it also has a protective surface that can not be modified in length or width.

Par conséquent, il n'offre ni la possibilité de découvrir totalement une zone prise dans la largeur de la surface extérieure couverte, ni la possibilité de découvrir totalement une partie prise dans la longueur de la surface extérieure à couvrir. De plus, la fabrication et surtout le montage des lames orientables dans les volets augmentent considérablement les coûts de réalisation de ce deuxième dispositif, qui doit pourtant être vendu à des prix compétitifs vis-à-vis des autres équipements extérieurs d'appoint d'une habitation ou d'un bâtiment. Enfin, les documents AT-007.687 , EP-1.029.445 et DE-20.2010.015864 décrivent des dispositifs de couverture dans lesquels des éléments de couverture prenant la forme de panneaux sont montés coulissants dans des cadres intermédiaires juxtaposés mais fixes relativement à leur cadre support. Par conséquent, et en raison du montage fixe des cadres intermédiaires, les dispositifs de couverture décrits dans ces documents de l'art antérieur ne permettent pas de découvrir de façon maximale la surface extérieure couverte. La présente invention vise à pallier les inconvénients de l'art antérieur.Therefore, it offers neither the possibility of totally discovering an area taken in the width of the covered exterior surface, nor the possibility of totally discovering a portion taken in the length of the outer surface to be covered. In addition, the manufacture and especially the mounting of the adjustable blades in the shutters considerably increase the costs of making this second device, which must nevertheless be sold at competitive prices vis-à-vis other outdoor equipment of a dwelling or building. Finally, the documents AT-007 687 , EP-1029445 and DE-20.2010.015864 disclose cover devices in which panel-shaped cover elements are slidably mounted in intermediate juxtaposed but fixed frames relative to their support frame. Consequently, and because of the fixed mounting of the intermediate frames, the cover devices described in these documents of the prior art do not make it possible to discover, to a maximum extent, the covered exterior surface. The present invention aims to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif de couverture formant une surface de protection de longueur et/ou de largeur variables, le dispositif de couverture comprenant des éléments de couverture formant la surface de protection et agencés de manière à faire varier la largeur et/ou la longueur de la surface de protection en coulissant l'un par rapport l'autre, le dispositif de couverture comprenant en outre :

  • un cadre support de longueur et de largeur prédéfinies,
  • au moins deux cadres intermédiaires de longueur et de largeur prédéfinies et supportés par le cadre support,
  • chaque cadre intermédiaire supportant au moins deux desdits éléments de couverture montés de façon à pouvoir coulisser l'un sous l'autre indifféremment dans l'une ou l'autre de deux directions de coulissement opposées prises dans la longueur ou dans la largeur de ce cadre intermédiaire.
To this end, the subject of the invention is a covering device forming a protective surface of variable length and / or width, the covering device comprising cover elements forming the protective surface and arranged so as to vary the width and / or length of the protective surface sliding relative to each other, the covering device further comprising:
  • a support frame of predefined length and width,
  • at least two intermediate frames of predefined length and width and supported by the support frame,
  • each intermediate frame supporting at least two of said cover elements slidably mounted one underneath the other indifferently in one or the other of two directions of sliding opposite taken in the length or width of this intermediate frame.

Selon l'invention, le dispositif de couverture se caractérise en ce que les cadres intermédiaires sont montés sur le cadre support de façon à pouvoir coulisser l'un sous l'autre indifféremment dans l'une ou l'autre de deux directions de coulissement opposées prises dans la longueur ou dans la largeur du cadre support.According to the invention, the covering device is characterized in that the intermediate frames are mounted on the support frame so as to slide one underneath the other indifferently in one or the other of two opposite sliding directions. taken in the length or width of the support frame.

Grâce au montage coulissant des cadres intermédiaires, le dispositif de couverture selon l'invention permet de réduire de façon maximale la largeur et la longueur de la surface de protection.Thanks to the sliding assembly of the intermediate frames, the covering device according to the invention makes it possible to reduce the width and the length of the protective surface to a maximum extent.

Comme illustré en figure 1, la présente invention est relative à un dispositif de couverture 10 formant une surface de protection 12 de longueur L12 et/ou de largeur W12 variables.As illustrated in figure 1 the present invention relates to a cover device 10 forming a protective surface 12 of variable length L12 and / or width W12.

A cet effet, le dispositif de couverture 10 comprend des éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6,...) formant la surface de protection 12 et agencés de manière à faire varier la largeur W12 et/ou la longueur L12 de la surface de protection en coulissant l'un par rapport l'autre.For this purpose, the covering device 10 comprises cover elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6,...) Forming the protective surface 12 and arranged in so as to vary the width W12 and / or the length L12 of the protective surface by sliding relative to each other.

Comme illustré par quatre flèches en figure 1, le dispositif de couverture 10 comprend au moins deux éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6...) coulissant l'un sous l'autre indifféremment dans l'une ou l'autre de deux directions de coulissement opposées ((C1,C2)(C3,C4)) prises dans la longueur L12 et/ou dans la largeur W12 de la surface de protection 12.As illustrated by four arrows in figure 1 , the covering device 10 comprises at least two cover elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, ...) sliding one underneath the other indifferently in one or the other of two directions of opposed sliding ((C1, C2) (C3, C4)) taken in the length L12 and / or in the width W12 of the protective surface 12.

Plus en détails, le dispositif de couverture 10 selon l'invention comprend :

  • un cadre support 14 de longueur L14 et de largeur W14 prédéfinies,
  • au moins deux cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,...) de longueur (LI1,LI2) et de largeur (WI1,WI2) prédéfinies et supportés par le cadre support 14,
  • chaque cadre intermédiaire (I1,I2,...) supportant au moins deux éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6...) montés de façon à pouvoir coulisser l'un sous l'autre indifféremment dans l'une ou l'autre de deux directions de coulissement opposées ((C1,C2)(C3,C4)) prises dans la longueur (LI1,LI2) ou dans la largeur (WI1,WI2) de ce cadre intermédiaire.

Avantageusement, grâce au coulissement des éléments de couverture, le dispositif de couverture selon l'invention permet par exemple de découvrir totalement l'une ou l'autre de deux zones latérales (ZL1,ZL2) d'une surface à couvrir SC.Advantageously, thanks to the sliding of the covering elements, the covering device according to the invention makes it possible, for example, to completely discover one or the other of two lateral zones (ZL1, ZL2) of a surface to be covered SC.

Afin de former une surface de protection 12 continue au niveau de chaque cadre intermédiaire, les éléments de couverture ((E1,E2,E3),(E4,E5,E6),...) de chaque cadre intermédiaire (I1,I2,...) couvrent la totalité de la surface définie par la largeur (WI1,WI2) et par la longueur (LI1,LI2) de ce cadre intermédiaire lorsqu'ils sont écartés l'un par rapport à l'autre suivant les directions de coulissement opposées ((C1,C2)(C3,C4)) et mis bord à bord dans la longueur (LI1,LI2) ou dans la largeur (WI1,WI2) de ce cadre intermédiaire.In order to form a continuous protective surface 12 at each intermediate frame, the covering elements ((E1, E2, E3), (E4, E5, E6), ...) of each intermediate frame (I1, I2, ...) cover the entire area defined by the width (WI1, WI2) and the length (LI1, LI2) of this intermediate frame when they are spaced relative to each other in the directions of opposite sliding ((C1, C2) (C3, C4)) and brought side by side in the length (LI1, LI2) or in the width (WI1, WI2) of this intermediate frame.

Afin de réduire au maximum la surface de protection 12 lorsque les éléments de couverture ((E1,E2,E3),(E4,E5,E6),...) de chaque cadre intermédiaire (I1,I2,...) sont superposés les uns sous les autres, les cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,...) peuvent aussi être montés sur le cadre support 14 de façon à pouvoir coulisser l'un sous l'autre indifféremment dans l'une ou l'autre de deux directions de coulissement opposées ((C1,C2)(C3,C4)) prises dans la longueur L14 ou dans la largeur W14 du cadre support.In order to minimize the protection surface 12 when the covering elements ((E1, E2, E3), (E4, E5, E6), ...) of each intermediate frame (I1, I2, ...) are superposed one under the other, the intermediate frames (I1, I2, ...) can also be mounted on the support frame 14 so as to slide one underneath the other indifferently in one or the other of two opposite sliding directions ((C1, C2) (C3, C4)) taken in the length L14 or in the width W14 of the support frame.

Avantageusement, grâce au coulissement des cadres intermédiaires, le dispositif de couverture selon l'invention permet par exemple de découvrir totalement l'une ou l'autre de deux parties longitudinales (PL1,PL2) de la surface à couvrir SC. Afin de former une surface de protection 12 maximale et continue au niveau du cadre support, les éléments de couverture ((E1,E2,E3),(E4,E5,E6),...) couvrent la totalité de la surface définie par la largeur W14 et par la longueur L14 du cadre support 14 lorsque les cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,...) sont écartés l'un par rapport à l'autre suivant les directions de coulissement opposées ((C1,C2)(C3,C4)) et mis bord à bord dans la longueur L14 ou dans la largeur W14 du cadre support, et lorsque les éléments de couverture ((E1,E2,E3),(E4,E5,E6),...) sont écartés l'un par rapport à l'autre suivant les directions de coulissement opposées ((C1,C2)(C3,C4)) et mis bord à bord dans la longueur (LI1,LI2) ou dans la largeur (WI1,WI2) des cadres intermédiaires.Advantageously, thanks to the sliding of the intermediate frames, the cover device according to the invention allows for example to completely discover one or the other of two longitudinal portions (PL1, PL2) of the surface to be covered SC. In order to form a maximum and continuous protective surface 12 at the support frame, the covering elements ((E1, E2, E3), (E4, E5, E6), ...) cover the entire area defined by the width W14 and the length L14 of the support frame 14 when the intermediate frames (I1, I2, ...) are spaced relative to each other in the opposite sliding directions ((C1, C2) (C3 , C4)) and abutted in the length L14 or in the width W14 of the support frame, and when the covering elements ((E1, E2, E3), (E4, E5, E6), ...) are spaced relative to each other in opposite sliding directions ((C1, C2) (C3, C4)) and abutted in length (LI1, LI2) or in width (WI1, WI2) middle managers.

Dans un premier mode de réalisation illustré par les vues en coupe longitudinale et transversale des figures 2 et 3, le cadre support 14 supporte deux cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2) supportant chacun trois éléments de couverture ((E1,E2,E3),(E4,E5,E6)).In a first embodiment illustrated by the views in longitudinal and transverse section of the figures 2 and 3 , the support frame 14 supports two intermediate frames (I1, I2) each supporting three cover elements ((E1, E2, E3), (E4, E5, E6)).

Comme illustré par la vue de détail de la figure 5, les éléments de couverture ((E1,E2,E3),(E4,E5,E6)) sont montés coulissant dans la longueur (LI1,LI2) des cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2) sur trois niveaux différents ((N1,N2,N3),(N4,N5,N6)) et superposés en hauteur.As illustrated by the detail view of the figure 5 , the cover elements ((E1, E2, E3), (E4, E5, E6)) are slidably mounted in the length (LI1, LI2) of the intermediate frames (I1, I2) on three different levels ((N1, N2) , N3), (N4, N5, N6)) and superimposed in height.

Et comme illustré par la vue de détail de la figure 4, les cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2) sont montés coulissant dans la largeur W14 du cadre support 14 sur deux niveaux différents (N8,N9) et superposés en hauteur.And as illustrated by the detail view of the figure 4 , the intermediate frames (I1, I2) are slidably mounted in the width W14 of the support frame 14 on two different levels (N8, N9) and superimposed in height.

Dans un deuxième mode de réalisation illustré par la vue en perspective en figure 6, le cadre support 14 supporte trois cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,I3) supportant chacun trois éléments de couverture ((E1,E2,E3),(E4,E5,E6),(E7,E8,E9)), les éléments de couverture ((E1,E2,E3),(E4,E5,E6),(E7,E8,E9)) étant montés coulissant dans la longueur (LI1,LI2,LI3) des cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,I3) sur trois niveaux différents et superposés en hauteur, et les cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,I3) étant montés coulissant dans la largeur W14 du cadre support 14 sur deux niveaux différents et superposés en hauteur, deux cadres intermédiaires (I1,I3) se situant sur un même niveau.In a second embodiment illustrated by the perspective view in figure 6 , the support frame 14 supports three intermediate frames (I1, I2, I3) each supporting three cover elements ((E1, E2, E3), (E4, E5, E6), (E7, E8, E9)), the elements cover ((E1, E2, E3), (E4, E5, E6), (E7, E8, E9)) being slidably mounted in the length (LI1, LI2, LI3) of intermediate frames (I1, I2, I3) on three different levels and superposed in height, and the intermediate frames (I1, I2, I3) being slidably mounted in the width W14 of the support frame 14 on two different levels and superimposed in height, two intermediate frames (I1, I3) lying on the same level.

Ce deuxième mode de réalisation propose un agencement visant à affiner le profil du cadre support 14 du dispositif de couverture 10.This second embodiment proposes an arrangement for refining the profile of the support frame 14 of the covering device 10.

Bien entendu, l'invention couvre aussi d'autres modes de réalisation pouvant être agencés de façon similaire aux modes précédents avec plus ou moins d'éléments de couvertures et de cadres intermédiaires.Of course, the invention also covers other embodiments that can be arranged similarly to the previous modes with more or less elements of covers and intermediate frames.

Pour la réalisation du montage coulissant dans les différents modes de réalisation de l'invention, les bords longitudinaux (16,18) des éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6,E7,E8,E9,...) sont équipés de galets 20 reçus dans des glissières 22 prévues le long des montants longitudinaux (24,26) de chaque cadre intermédiaire (I1,I2,I3,...), et les montants latéraux (28,30) des cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,I3,...) sont équipés de galets 32 reçus dans des glissières (34,36) prévues le long des supports latéraux (38,40) du cadre support 14. Toujours dans les différents modes de réalisation de l'invention, afin de former une surface de protection 12 sensiblement étanche lorsque les cadres intermédiaires et les éléments de couverture sont déployés bord à bord, les éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6,E7,E8,E9,...) sont pleins et conçus de manière à déverser les eaux de pluie vers des rigoles (40,42) prévues le long des montants longitudinaux (24,26) de chaque cadre intermédiaire (I1,I2,I3,...), et les cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,I3,...) sont conçus de façon à déverser les eaux de pluie vers des chenaux (44,46) prévus le long des supports latéraux (38,40) du cadre support 14.For the realization of the sliding assembly in the various embodiments of the invention, the longitudinal edges (16, 18) of the covering elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8, E9, .. .) are equipped with rollers 20 received in slides 22 provided along the longitudinal uprights (24,26) of each intermediate frame (I1, I2, I3, ...), and the lateral uprights (28,30) of the frames intermediate (I1, I2, I3, ...) are equipped with rollers 32 received in slides (34,36) provided along the lateral supports (38,40) of the support frame 14. Still in the various embodiments of in order to form a substantially watertight protective surface 12 when the intermediate frames and the covering elements are deployed edge-to-edge, the cover elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8, E9, ...) are solid and designed to discharge the rainwater to channels (40,42) provided along the longitudinal pillars (24,26) of each intermediate frame (I1, I2, I3, ...), and the middle frames (I1, I2, I3, ...) are designed to discharge the rainwater to channels (44,46) provided along the lateral supports (38,40) of the support frame 14.

En complément, les bords longitudinaux (16,18) des éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6,E7,E8,E9,...) et les montants latéraux (28,30) des cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,I3,...) par lesquels sont déversées les eaux de pluie peuvent comprendre un profil inférieur casse-goutte.In addition, the longitudinal edges (16, 18) of the covering elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8, E9,...) And the lateral uprights (28, 30) of the intermediate frames (I1, I2, I3, ...) through which rainwater is discharged may include a lower drip profile.

Selon différentes variantes de réalisation, les éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6,E7,E8,E9,...) peuvent être fabriqués dans un matériau plus ou moins opaque, plus ou moins transparent ou plus ou moins translucide.According to different embodiments, the cover elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8, E9,...)

Dans une autre variante plus perfectionnée, les éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6,E7,E8,E9,...) peuvent aussi être composés d'éléments brise soleil orientables.In another more advanced variant, the covering elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8, E9,...) May also be composed of directional sun-breakable elements.

Pour une meilleure résistance à la flexion, les éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6,E7,E8,E9,...) peuvent présenter un profil légèrement bombé, de préférence vers le haut pour éviter l'accumulation des eaux de pluie.For a better resistance to bending, the covering elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8, E9,...) Can have a slightly curved profile, preferably upwards to avoid accumulation of rainwater.

Les éléments de couverture (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5,E6,E7,E8,E9,...) du dispositif de couverture 10 selon l'invention sont quadrilatéraux, ainsi que les cadres intermédiaires (I1,I2,I3,...) et le cadre support (14).The covering elements (E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8, E9, ...) of the covering device 10 according to the invention are quadrilateral, as well as the intermediate frames (I1, I2, I3 , ...) and the support frame (14).
