Definitions
- the invention relates to a raising device for a sheet-like object, e.g. a blind, and the system that comprises the combination of the device and the sheet-like object.
- the sheet-like object is not limited to a flexible plane sheet. It can also have another flexible, foldable or compactable structure, e.g. a slat blind (with horizontal slats) or a drape.
- the invention also relates to such a raising device that is electromechanically driven.
- Raisable folding blinds with a series of parallel raising cords are generally known, for example from BE 1015477 of the applicant.
- the folding blind in the known systems has its top edge fastened to the fixed supporting fitting of the device.
- a number of rotatable winding stations are often affixed around their common axis over the width of the blind in the supporting fitting: one station per raising cord or raising thread.
- the blind can be raised or lowered manually, e.g. using a ball chain, or by machine with an electromechanical motor.
- a mechanised raising device of this type for folding blind for example, is known from WO 2006/050736.
- the successive winding drums in the winding stations are arranged such that they can move axially over the width of the blind at the same time as their rotation movement while they wind up or down.
- the axial sliding distance per revolution of a winding drum is thereby at least equal to the thickness of the raising cord.
- each cord winds up or down in successive close-fitting, but not overlapping, loops on its own winding drum.
- Crooked raising is very inconvenient and must be avoided at all times.
- the diameter of the winding units in WO 2006/050736 is relatively small with regard to the height and depth of their supporting fitting or housing (rail).
- the distance traversed per revolution of the winding drums while raising or lowering is thus also relatively small.
- the device is thus not very compact.
- the construction with separate winding drums, one per raising cord, is for the rest rather complex.
- the patent document US 2006/0278345 also relates to a raising device that is not very compact, with the disadvantage of a winding tube with a relatively small diameter with regard to the height and depth of the surrounding supporting fitting.
- the drive according to Fig. 9 is not done with a tubular motor. As a result the required length of the supporting fitting is markedly longer, which again is disadvantageous for the compactness of the raising device.
- a compact construction means i.a. that winding units can be mounted with the largest possible diameter in the existing hollow, profile-shaped supports or housings with standard transverse dimensions (depth and height); in other words, such units that do not quite catch against the inside walls of the support during winding.
- a universal system here means that all embodiments or types of raising devices belonging to the system have the same essential structural characteristics, irrespective of the nature and dimensions, both the width and height, of the sheet-like objects to be applied.
- the drive for the winding or raising operation must thereby be able to be electromechanically implemented and driven with a tubular motor.
- This means that the rotation of the motor in the clockwise or anticlockwise direction will preferably be coupled with an adjustable stop and reverse mechanism for this rotation (encoder), at least for the desired angular rotation position of the winding units close to the furthest raised and lowered position of the sheet-like object.
- Such mechanisms in themselves are known, e.g. for a roll-down shutter equipped with a tubular motor.
- embodiments of the present invention also cover the ready addition or omission of a number of raising cords or raising threads in the raising device, depending on the length of the supporting fitting, for example (and thus the width of the sheet-like object to be raised).
- Embodiments of the present invention also cover the ready adjustment of the mutual distances (D) between the mutual parallel raising cords in the raising device.
- the raising device will preferably also allow the drive means to operate free of vibrations to the greatest extent possible, and thus also with as little noise as possible during raising and lowering.
- a raising device for a sheet-like object with the aid of raising threads comprises a support, among others, for electromechanical drive means for the raising operation.
- the drive means is thereby mechanically coupled to a winding tube for the raising threads extending concentrically around it.
- the drive means carries suitable first coupling means for transmitting the rotation generated by it to the winding tube.
- the rotatable winding tube is mechanically coupled around its longitudinal axis to an axial spindle close to its second end, which is fastened to said supporting fitting close to this second end. This spindle has an external screw thread.
- rotatable second coupling means are fastened to a central axial opening that is provided internally with a screw thread that is complementary to, and thus has the same pitch as, the external screw thread of the spindle.
- the winding tube is rotatably coupled to a co-rotating hollow, practically cylindrical coupling element close to its first end.
- the winding tube can thereby move axially with respect to the cylindrical coupling element at the same time.
- the coupling itself occurs in particular against the wall of the winding tube, preferably against its inside wall, and both for the first coupling means and for the coupling to said cylindrical element.
- said first coupling means may preferably comprise a toothed disk for transmitting the rotation of the motor to the inside wall of the winding tube.
- suitable radial ribs can be affixed against this inside wall for the rotational coupling, as well for the axial movement coupling of the winding tube, to the motor on the one hand and to said cylindrical element on the other hand.
- said cylindrical element can be coupled to a rotatable and adjustable stop and reverse mechanism (encoder) for the direction of rotation of the drive means.
- this mechanism may be mechanically coupled to the cylindrical element and also electrically to the motor.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic front view of a raising device according to embodiments of the present invention, in a position in which the sheet-like object is unfolded and lowered.
- Fig. 2 is a schematic front view of the raising device according to embodiments of the present invention, in a position in which the sheet-like object is raised and folded up, in comparison to the position of Fig. 1.
- Fig. 3 shows three longitudinal cross-sections A, B and C, of the raising device according to embodiments of the present invention, with wound-up threads (and thus raised sheet) successively at (A:) the first end of the winding tube, (B:) the first coupling means, and (C:) the second end of the winding tube.
- Fig. 4 is a transverse cross-section of the raising device according to embodiments of the present invention, perpendicular to its longitudinal axis and at the level of the first coupling means (corresponding to Fig. 3:B).
- Fig. 5 is an analogous transverse cross-section of the raising device according to embodiments of the present invention at the level of the first end of the winding tube (corresponding to Fig. 3:A).
- Fig. 6 shows a perspective view of the position of said cylindrical element close to the first end of the winding tube in a lowered situation of the raising threads.
- Fig. 7 shows a perspective view of the analogous position of the cylindrical element in a raised situation of the raising threads.
- Figs. 8 and 9 respectively, show an embodiment of the present invention for a modularly structured cylindrical element in a closed position and in an unfolded position, respectively.
- Fig. 10 shows a perspective view of the coupling through the cylindrical element between the winding tube and said stop and reverse mechanism, according to embodiments of the present invention.
- the raising device 1, shown in Figs. 1 to 5 will be described for a raising operation of a folding blind 2 as an example of a sheet-like object, as stated above.
- the device 1 according to Fig. 1 first of all comprises, as is generally known, a rigid support fitting or housing 3 (rail) for the winding system.
- This support 3 is generally fastened against a wall or ceiling.
- the top edge 22 of the folding blind 2 (Fig. 5) is fastened to the outside of the support 3.
- the drive means 4 for the winding system is fastened so that it projects (cantilever) close to its one end in or against the second end 14 of the support 3.
- the electricity supply cable 25 for the tubular motor and for the stop and reverse mechanism 17 that is mounted in a fixed way in the support 3 will preferably also be connected there.
- the tubular motor 4 thus extends in the longitudinal direction through the housing 3. It comprises, as is known, an electric motor and a gearbox coupled to it and an electric connection with the stop and reverse mechanism 17 (encoder).
- the applicable drive means 4 for the invention with tubular motor and stop and reverse mechanism 17 is generally a known drive system that is freely available on the market, for example from the Somfy company.
- the first coupling means 6 is mounted close to the other end of this motor 4 on its drive shaft 28.
- this means comprises a suitable toothed disk for coupling and transmitting the rotation of the motor 4 to a winding tube for the raising threads 13 concentrically affixed around it, and around the longitudinal axis 8 of the device.
- a number of suitable ribs 19 that are radially oriented inwards are affixed on the inside wall 16 of the winding tube.
- Fig. 1 clearly shows that there are only a small number of loops of the two raising threads 13 around the winding tube 5.
- Fig. 2 shows the large number of loops of the threads 13 on the winding tube 5 in the folded or raised position of the blind 2.
- the loops are also next to one another in an orderly pattern and not criss-crossed over each other. This guarantees the perfect winding up and down of the sheet-like object 2 (blind) without the risk of being pulled crookedly.
- the arrow 29 between the two end positions of the device in Fig. 2 clearly shows the axially displaced position of the tube 5 from a position of the first end 14 of the tube close against the nearby end of the support 3 to a position that is further away from it.
- the raising threads 13 While winding up and down, the raising threads 13 always move back and forth (up and down) over the same fixed path through fixed openings, or passages 34, selected beforehand in the baseplate of the support 3 (see Fig. 6).
- the second end 7 of the winding tube is equipped with the second coupling means 11.
- This comprises the winding tube 5 that supports the end flange 30 with a central, axially oriented opening.
- This opening clasps a nut 39, the inside wall of which is provided with a screw thread 12 as a component of the second rotatable coupling means 11 for the tube 5.
- the pitch of this screw thread is at least equal to the thickness of each raising thread 13, for example a pitch of 1 mm for a thread 13 of a thickness of 0.9 mm.
- This pitch is also complementary to that of the external screw thread of an axial spindle 9 that is fastened to the support 3 close to the second end 7 of the winding tube 5.
- each raising thread 13 is clamped by its winding end 21 in an axial groove 18 in the outside wall 26 of the winding tube 5.
- the fastening clamp 31 for each winding end 21 can always be fastened at a predetermined place (over the length of the groove) in this groove 18.
- the clamps 31 can thus move axially according to the desire to adjust the mutual distances D between the parallel raising threads, for example.
- the raising end 24 of each thread 13 is preferably fastened close to the bottom edge 23 of the sheet-like object 2.
- said hollow cylindrical element 15 essentially comprises a thicker head ring 33 close to the first end 14.
- Spread over the circumference of this ring 33 are a number of parallel arms 20 that run along a descriptive of the cylinder 15.
- the other ends of the arms 20 are also connected together by a (thinner) suitable support ring 37.
- these arms 20 is chosen so that they can slide and fit in between the ribs 19 on the inside wall of the tube 5 and close outside the periphery of the tubular motor.
- the element 15 rotates with it, without axial displacement, however. In so doing, the element 15 automatically transmits the desired rotation to the mechanism 17.
- the element 15 in particular enables a rotation drive for the adjustable stop and reverse mechanism 17 (encoder).
- the element 15 is thus, for transmitting its rotation to the mechanism 17, mechanically coupled to it, for example with the aid of a ridge or projection 36 on the outer periphery of the mechanism 17, as shown in Fig. 3(A).
- This ridge 36 then protrudes radially outwards into the slot or cutaway 40 in the head ring 33 of the cylindrical element 15.
- the diameter of the mechanism 17 is smaller than that of the casing around the motor 4.
- the thickness of the head ring 33 is chosen so that it fits precisely in the recessed, ring-shaped space against the periphery of the mechanism 17, as illustrated in the left half of Fig. 3(A).
- Figs. 6 to 10 show a cage-shaped embodiment of the element 15.
- the element 15 will preferably be constructed from longitudinal segments or parts to be joined together.
- Fig. 9 shows the opened position of an embodiment of this cage-shaped element 15 into two longitudinal joinable halves 35. The two halves 35 are connected together hingeably.
- the element 15 can be made of plastic or metal. This embodiment enables this element to be readily closed into a cylinder around the periphery of the motor 4 and the stop and reverse mechanism 17.
- the mechanism 17 controls at least the adjustment length of the raising threads 13 for the maximum unfolding (thread 3 completely lowered) and for their maximum raising height (fold-up limit). Preselected interim positions can be set with the mechanism 17.
- the control of the corresponding position of the mechanism can be carried out with a remote control. This control can proceed, is as is known, by measuring the angular rotation plus the count of the number of wound loops on the tube 5.
- the stop and reverse mechanism 17 is generally placed close to the cover plate 32 of the support 3 in the vicinity of the first end 14 of the winding tube 5.
- Fig. 3(B) shows a vibration damper 38 between the underside of the winding tube and the baseplate of the support 3.
- This damper 38 can, for example, comprise a vibration-absorbing elastic compressible substrate such as a felt pad or a relatively soft plastic foam plate.
- a number of such dampers 38 can be fastened over the length of the support 3 if need be, between successive passages 34 for the raising threads 13 in the base of the support 3.
