- the main task of an upper guide usually containing two rollers is to stabilise the track of a door leaf in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the sliding door leaf. Upper guide rollers cooperate with the interior of an upper rail guiding a door leaf. Typically, an upper guide is not intended to hold the weight of a door leaf.
- the weight of a door leaf is usually carried by a bottom carriage cooperating with a bottom support rail, or in other embodiments, by an upper carriage by means of which a door leaf is hung with its weight on an upper support rail. Therefore, the upper guide of the present invention protects a sliding door leaf from transverse vibrations.
- An upper horizontal edge of a sliding door is guided in the described guideline which guiding channel is intended for cooperation with an upper guide of one door leaf.
- a guide stabilises a sliding door leaf.
- an sliding door upper guide usually comprises a flat perpendicular to the main plane of a door leaf, containing at least one roller on a vertical rotation axis. A flat is fixed on an upper edge of a door leaf.
- a known guide comprises two rollers with vertical rotation axes. The spacing of the rollers, with vertical rotation axes, corresponds to the width of a guiding channel of an upper guideline of a sliding door leaf. The rollers cooperate with internal vertical surfaces of the guideline walls and when the door is slid they prevent tilting of a door leaf.
- permanently fixed rollers to be able to freely move on said guideline tracks, must have a proper clearance between the rollers tracks and the cooperating guideline walls. In some cases this clearance causes an undesirable effect of wobbling of a sliding door.
- sliding a door synchronous vibrations of a door leaf may occur with amplitude equal to the size of the clearance between a guide roller and an internal surface of a guiding track.
- a guide comprises a housing fixed on an upper edge in which a vertical axle is arranged on which one roller contacting one of the inner walls of an upper guideline is pivotally mounted.
- the upper guide comprises, arranged in the housing, a resilient vertical torsion member containing a vertical torsion elongated bar. The lower end of the bar is attached to the housing.

- a wheel guide includes a mounting member and a body member of inverted L-shaped configuration. The vertical wall of the body member is secured to a door leaf, whereas the horizontal wall is secured to the upper edge of the sliding door leaf and extends horizontally above the door.
- a pair of wheels is rotatably mounted on the horizontal wall. Peripheral portions of both wheels extend beyond the contour of the opposite extreme edges of the horizontal wall.
- the axes of the wheels are oriented on an imaginary line extending at an angle of at least 30° to the main axis of the horizontal wall of the guide. Circumferential edges of the wheels rotatably contact the inner vertical walls of the track.
- a guide comprises a slider guiding the upper edge of a sliding door leaf in an upper guide channel.
- the slider comprises spaced cheeks between which extends a rib from one side which connects the cheeks on one side.
- On the other side of the cheeks there is a flexible tongue mounted between the cheeks which free edge is pressed to contact with the other inner wall of the guide channel.
- the upper guide has a pair of wheels whose rims cooperate with inner walls of the upper guide channel of the sliding door leaf.
- the wheels have a conical section, whereas one of the wheels is inverted to the other.
- the circumferential rim of one wheel is at a higher elevation than the circumferential rim of the other wheel.
- Both wheels are made of a material that is to some extent flexible and susceptible to pressure.
- substantially conical wheels are inverted relative to each other.
- an sliding door upper guide comprises a body in the form of an angle section.
- a vertical arm of the body is fixed to a vertical plane of a sliding door leaf, whereas a horizontal arm of the body rests with its inner surface on an upper edge of the sliding door leaf.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to an sliding door upper guide. The invention is particularly suitable for furniture sliding door systems.
- A guide is a member guiding and stabilising the track of a sliding door. A sliding door contains one or more sliding leaves. The term door leaf should be understood as a board which can be slid, covering or uncovering access to a room in a civil structure, or to the inside of furniture. The main task of an upper guide usually containing two rollers is to stabilise the track of a door leaf in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the sliding door leaf. Upper guide rollers cooperate with the interior of an upper rail guiding a door leaf. Typically, an upper guide is not intended to hold the weight of a door leaf. The weight of a door leaf is usually carried by a bottom carriage cooperating with a bottom support rail, or in other embodiments, by an upper carriage by means of which a door leaf is hung with its weight on an upper support rail. Therefore, the upper guide of the present invention protects a sliding door leaf from transverse vibrations.
- There are a number of known design solutions of an upper guide of a sliding door. Sliding door leaves are mounted in an upper guideline and a bottom guideline extending parallel to each other, where the guidelines are double, which makes that an inner leaf and an outer leaf of the door pass each other during opening and closing. Guidelines have the shape of sections with a cross-section similar to a channel section.
- An upper horizontal edge of a sliding door is guided in the described guideline which guiding channel is intended for cooperation with an upper guide of one door leaf. A guide stabilises a sliding door leaf.
- In these known solutions an sliding door upper guide usually comprises a flat perpendicular to the main plane of a door leaf, containing at least one roller on a vertical rotation axis. A flat is fixed on an upper edge of a door leaf. In a number of known solutions of this type, a known guide comprises two rollers with vertical rotation axes. The spacing of the rollers, with vertical rotation axes, corresponds to the width of a guiding channel of an upper guideline of a sliding door leaf. The rollers cooperate with internal vertical surfaces of the guideline walls and when the door is slid they prevent tilting of a door leaf. However, permanently fixed rollers, to be able to freely move on said guideline tracks, must have a proper clearance between the rollers tracks and the cooperating guideline walls. In some cases this clearance causes an undesirable effect of wobbling of a sliding door. When sliding a door synchronous vibrations of a door leaf may occur with amplitude equal to the size of the clearance between a guide roller and an internal surface of a guiding track.
- A known solution of a guide with two rollers, one of which is pressed to one of the guideline tracks is described in international application specification
WO 99/63190 - In another solution known from US patent specification No.
US 5,349,783 , a twin wheel guide for a sliding door leaf is disclosed. A support assembly for a sliding door leaf, according to this known solution, includes an elongated track with an inverted U-shaped cross-section. An upper wheel guide rides in this track. A wheel guide includes a mounting member and a body member of inverted L-shaped configuration. The vertical wall of the body member is secured to a door leaf, whereas the horizontal wall is secured to the upper edge of the sliding door leaf and extends horizontally above the door. A pair of wheels is rotatably mounted on the horizontal wall. Peripheral portions of both wheels extend beyond the contour of the opposite extreme edges of the horizontal wall. The axes of the wheels are oriented on an imaginary line extending at an angle of at least 30° to the main axis of the horizontal wall of the guide. Circumferential edges of the wheels rotatably contact the inner vertical walls of the track. - Another known solution of a sliding door guide is disclosed in US patent specification No.
US 4,722,150 . According to this known solution, a guide comprises a slider guiding the upper edge of a sliding door leaf in an upper guide channel. The slider comprises spaced cheeks between which extends a rib from one side which connects the cheeks on one side. On the other side of the cheeks there is a flexible tongue mounted between the cheeks which free edge is pressed to contact with the other inner wall of the guide channel. In another embodiment the upper guide has a pair of wheels whose rims cooperate with inner walls of the upper guide channel of the sliding door leaf. The wheels have a conical section, whereas one of the wheels is inverted to the other. The circumferential rim of one wheel is at a higher elevation than the circumferential rim of the other wheel. Both wheels are made of a material that is to some extent flexible and susceptible to pressure. In the embodiment, substantially conical wheels are inverted relative to each other. - The object of the invention is described in
claim 1 and in the subsequent claims. - According to the invention, an sliding door upper guide comprises a body in the form of an angle section. A vertical arm of the body is fixed to a vertical plane of a sliding door leaf, whereas a horizontal arm of the body rests with its inner surface on an upper edge of the sliding door leaf. The horizontal arm can be additionally fixed to the surface of an upper edge of the sliding door leaf. To said horizontal body arm of the guide two rollers on vertical rotation axes are attached. The contour of the outer circumference of the first roller extends beyond the edge of contact of the body arms from one side of the edge of the door leaf, and the contour of the outer circumference of the second roller extends beyond the opposite edge of the horizontal body arm from the other side of the edge of the sliding door leaf. As a result of the extension of both rollers, the rollers cooperate with the interior of the rail in the upper guideline, and not upper parts of the surface of the sliding door leaf.
- The solution according to the invention is characterised in that the rotation axis of at least one roller is fixed to the horizontal body arm by means of an arm tiltingly fixed on its own axis to the horizontal body arm. An extreme arrangement of said tilting arm is fixed by a spring.
- The spring in the solution according to the invention is preferably mounted on the axis of the tilting arm. One catch of said spring is coupled with the horizontal arm of the guide body, whereas the other catch of the spring is coupled with said tilting arm. The term coupling in this patent specification should be understood as resting the end spring member referred to as a catch on the edge of the member or threading the catch through an opening in the member or connecting the catch with the respective member in a different way.
- In a preferred embodiment of the solution according to the invention, one spring catch rests on the edge of the horizontal body arm, and the other spring catch rests on the edge of the tilting arm.
- Another advantageous feature of the solution according to the invention is a circumferential extrusion in the horizontal body arm around the clamping of the tilting arm axis.
- As another preferred embodiment of the invention a similar circumferential extrusion is proposed in the horizontal body arm around the clamping of the first roller axis.
- The solution of the upper guide according to the invention makes it possible to obtain constant tension of the rollers adjacent with their circumference to inner walls of the upper guideline rail. This makes it possible to obtain complete stabilisation in a direction perpendicular to the surface of a sliding door leaf when the leaf moves. At the same time, owing to the proposed solution an additional effect is obtained involving preventing the uncontrolled tilting of the roller when the guide is pulled out from the interior of rail in the upper guideline. This makes that it is easier to put the leaf with the upper guide in the interior of the rail in the upper guideline after finishing maintenance or repair work. In addition, the manufacturing cost of the upper guide is reduced.
- The object of the invention is shown in an embodiment in the accompanying drawings where subsequent figures show:

- - a view of the guide, according to
Fig. 6 , shown with scattered parts. - An sliding door upper guide comprises a
body 1 in the form of an angle section. Thebody 1 is shown inFig. 7 . Avertical arm 2 of thebody 1 is fixed in a known manner to a vertical plane of a slidingdoor leaf 23. In this embodiment thevertical arm 2 of thebody 1 is fixed by means ofscrews using openings 3 shown inFig. 1 andFig. 7 . - A
horizontal arm 3 of thebody 1 rests with its inner surface on an upper edge of the sliding door leaf. Thehorizontal arm 3 can be additionally fixed to the surface of the upper edge of the slidingdoor leaf 23 with a screw using anopening 5. The saidhorizontal body 1arm 4 of the guide tworollers Fig. 7 . The contour of the outer circumference of thefirst roller 6 extends beyond the edge of contact of thebody 1arms 10 from one side of the edge of thedoor leaf 23, whereas the contour of the outer circumference of thesecond roller 7 extends beyond theopposite edge 11 of thehorizontal body 1arm 4 from the other side of the edge of the slidingdoor leaf 23. As a result of the extension of bothrollers edges horizontal body 1arm 4, therollers upper guideline 12rail 13, and not upper parts of the surface of the slidingdoor leaf 23. This is shown inFig. 4 and Fig. 5 . These figures show theupper guideline 12 stabilising the upper edge of the slidingdoor leaf 23. In the embodiment shown in the accompanying figures, theupper guideline 12 inFig. 4 and Fig. 5 comprises in one body two parallel inner guideline rails 13, 14. The figures show the upper guide, according to the invention, of one slidingdoor leaf 23 in theguideline rail 13, while theother guideline rail 14 is free and can carry the upper guide of the other sliding door leaf. This is shown inFig. 5 . In other embodiments theupper guideline 12 can contain only oneguideline rail 13 or more than two guideline rails for more than two sliding door leaves. - The
rollers vertical axes rotation axis 8 of theroller 6 is mounted in thehorizontal body 1arm 4, near the edge of contact of thevertical arm 2 with thehorizontal arm 4, near one end of theguide body 1. - However, the
rotation axis 9 of thesecond roller 7 is fixed to thehorizontal body arm 4 by means of a tiltingarm 15. The tiltingarm 15 containing on a free end theaxis 9 with theroller 7, is mounted on itsown axis 16 to thehorizontal arm 4 near the other end of theguide body 1. This is shown inFig. 1, Fig. 2 ,Fig. 4 ,Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 . In other embodiments the spacing of these rollers with respect to thehorizontal body 1arm 4 can be different. - The tilting
roller 7arm 15 comprises a shapedlimiter 17 of the extreme position of said tiltingarm 15. In the embodiment shown in the accompanying figures, particularly inFig. 6 and Fig. 7 , thelimiter 17 of the extreme position of the tiltingarm 15 has the form of a catch cooperating with theedge 11 of thehorizontal body 1arm 4. Thelimiter 17 prevents thearm 15 from full rotation under the pressure of aspring 18, when the slidingdoor leaf 23 together with the guide of the invention is removed from the interior of theupper guideline 12rail 13. - Said tilting
arm 15 is extremely tilted under the pressure of aspring 18. - The
spring 18 in this embodiment of the guide of the invention is mounted on a tiltingroller 7arm 15axis 16 between thearm 15 and thehorizontal body 1arm 4 of the guide. Under the pressure of thespring 18 the tiltingarm 15 with theroller 7 is extremely tilted, limited by thelimiter 17. In order for thespring 18 to fulfil its role, onecatch 19 of saidspring 18 in this embodiment rests on theedge 11 of thehorizontal body 1arm 4 of the guide. On the other end of thespring 18 theother catch 20 is formed in this embodiment which is in the form of a straight end section of thespring 18. This is shown inFig. 7 . As show in this figure, the tiltingarm 15 at the base has a formed offset 21 under which during installation of the guide theother catch 20 is fixed in the form of a straight end section of thespring 18. This is also shown inFig. 1 . Initial tension of bothcatches arm 15. - In the upper guide of the invention, before inserting it to the
upper guideline 12rail 13, the outer distance between therollers Fig. 2 as a1 is bigger than the distance defined inFig. 4 as a2 between side walls of theupper guideline 12rail 13. After inserting the upper guide mounted on the upper edge of the slidingdoor leaf 23 to theguideline 12rail 13, said distance a1 is decreased to the distance a2 by tilting the tiltingarm 15, and the tension of thespring 18 is increased, which leads to full stabilisation of the upper edge of the slidingdoor leaf 23. This is shown in drawingsFig. 4 and Fig. 5 . - The accompanying
Fig. 4 ,Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 show that in this embodiment, around the tiltingarm 15axis 16 and around theroller 6axis 8,circumferential extrusions 22 are profiled in thehorizontal body 1arm 4 of the guide. -
