Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un profil ouvrant ou dormant, notamment pour fenêtre, porte, ou autre, en aluminium, en matière plastique ou autre.The present invention relates to an opening or frame profile, in particular for a window, door, or the like, in aluminum, plastic or other.

On connaît déjà de l'art antérieur des ouvrants ou des dormants pour fenêtre ou porte présentent un cadre entourant un panneau de vitre. Généralement, ce type de cadre présente une paroi périphérique extérieure ou intérieure sur laquelle est ménagée une rainure de guidage longitudinal servant à installer une ferrure. La ferrure est composée d'un accessoire relié, par exemple, à des éléments de commande (poignée) ou d'ouverture/fermeture, et d'une tringle de transmission susceptible de transmettre des mouvements provenant des éléments de commande. Normalement, les dimensions du cadre d'ouvrant et/ou dormant peuvent varier selon les modèles, tandis que les dimensions des tringles et des accessoires sont généralement standardisées. Par conséquent, dans l'art antérieur, lorsque l'on monte un accessoire sur la rainure, il est nécessaire de couper la tringle de transmission et de percer préalablement un orifice sur la tringle de transmission afin de l'attacher à l'accessoire. Le fait d'adapter une tringle aux dimensions du cadre d'ouvrant et/ou de dormant demande un temps relativement conséquent.It is already known from the prior art of opening or frame for window or door have a frame surrounding a pane panel. Generally, this type of frame has an outer or inner peripheral wall on which is formed a longitudinal guide groove serving to install a fitting. The fitting is made up of an accessory connected, for example, to control elements (handle) or opening / closing, and a transmission rod capable of transmitting movements from the control elements. Normally, the dimensions of the sash and / or frame may vary depending on the model, while the dimensions of the rods and accessories are generally standardized. Therefore, in the prior art, when mounting an accessory on the groove, it is necessary to cut the transmission rod and previously drill a hole in the transmission rod in order to attach it to the accessory. The fact of adapting a rod to the dimensions of the opening frame and / or the frame requires a relatively substantial time.

Afin de remédier à ce problème, le document de brevet EP 1 867 821 A1 , décrit une ferrure présentant une tringle et un accessoire. Cette ferrure comporte un moyen de fixation permettant de fixer l'accessoire sur la tringle. Ce moyen de fixation comprend une vis possédant une extrémité qui est capable de percer un orifice sur la tringle, ce qui permet un ajustement rapide de l'accessoire sur la tringle au moment du montage. Le temps de fabrication en est alors raccourci.In order to remedy this problem, the patent document EP 1 867 821 A1 , describes a fitting having a rod and an accessory. This fitting comprises a fixing means making it possible to fix the accessory on the rod. This fastening means comprises a screw having one end which is capable of drilling a hole in the rod, which allows a quick adjustment of the accessory on the rod at the time of assembly. The manufacturing time is then shortened.

De plus, le document de brevet EP 1 270 856 A2 décrit un profil d'ouvrant ou de dormant.In addition, the patent document EP 1 270 856 A2 describes an opening or frame profile.

Toutefois, lors du perçage de la tringle, des déchets ont tendance à se produire. Bien que ce document décrive une tringle agencée pour que ces déchets soient retenus entre les parois latérales de la tringle, il existe un risque de chute des déchets sur la rainure et donc de blocage du coulissement de la tringle de transmission.However, when drilling the rod, waste tends to occur. Although this document describes a rod arranged so that this waste is retained between the side walls of the rod, it There is a risk of the waste falling onto the groove and therefore of blocking the sliding of the transmission rod.

Il existe donc un besoin pour un montage permettant de concilier simplicité et fiabilité.There is therefore a need for an assembly making it possible to reconcile simplicity and reliability.

La présente invention atteint son but en proposant un profil d'ouvrant ou de dormant sur lequel est ménagée au moins une rainure de guidage longitudinal. Le profil comporte : une tringle de transmission destinée à être logée à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage de façon mobile en translation et comprenant une partie centrale qui s'étend longitudinalement sur toute la longueur de la tringle de transmission, un accessoire apte à venir en prise avec la tringle de transmission pour l'actionnement de la tringle de transmission, par exemple un entraîneur ou un accessoire fonctionnel; et un moyen de fixation par percussion pour fixer l'accessoire sur la tringle de transmission, ledit moyen de fixation comprenant une vis présentant une extrémité susceptible de percer ladite paroi supérieure de la partie centrale. Cette partie centrale de la tringle de transmission définit : une paroi supérieure, destinée à être percée par le moyen de percussion, et de part et d'autre de la paroi supérieure, deux parois latérales formant avec cette paroi supérieure un canal susceptible de recevoir au moins une partie du moyen de fixation et s'étendant longitudinalement sur toute la longueur de la partie centrale. Selon l'invention, la partie centrale présente en outre une partie de fond reliant les parois latérales et s'étendant sur toute la longueur de la partie centrale, de manière à fermer ledit canal longitudinal en section transversale.The present invention achieves its aim by proposing an opening or frame profile on which at least one longitudinal guide groove is formed. The profile comprises: a transmission rod intended to be housed inside the guide groove movably in translation and comprising a central part which extends longitudinally over the entire length of the transmission rod, an accessory suitable for engaging the transmission rod for actuation of the transmission rod, for example a driver or an operative accessory; and percussion fixing means for fixing the accessory on the transmission rod, said fixing means comprising a screw having one end capable of piercing said upper wall of the central part. This central part of the transmission rod defines: an upper wall, intended to be pierced by the percussion means, and on either side of the upper wall, two side walls forming with this upper wall a channel capable of receiving at at least part of the fastening means and extending longitudinally over the entire length of the central part. According to the invention, the central part also has a bottom part connecting the side walls and extending over the entire length of the central part, so as to close said longitudinal channel in cross section.

Ainsi, une caractéristique de l'invention réside dans le fait que la paroi supérieure, les parois latérales et la partie de fond de la partie centrale de la tringle de transmission forment ensemble un canal longitudinal fermé sur une section transversale. Ce canal longitudinal fermé permet de retenir des déchets générés lors d'une fixation par percussion de la tringle de transmission, à l'intérieur du canal. Le canal longitudinal peut éventuellement être fermé longitudinalement, par exemple par obturation des extrémités longitudinales de la tringle de transmission et/ou, par deux accessoires permettant de retenir des déchets entre eux, à l'intérieur du canal. Aussi, on peut éviter le blocage du coulissement de la tringle de transmission.Thus, a characteristic of the invention resides in the fact that the top wall, the side walls and the bottom part of the central part of the transmission rod together form a longitudinal channel closed on a cross section. This closed longitudinal channel makes it possible to retain waste generated during a percussion fixing of the transmission rod, inside the channel. The longitudinal channel can optionally be closed longitudinally, for example by sealing the longitudinal ends of the transmission rod and / or by two accessories making it possible to retain waste between them, inside the canal. Also, it is possible to avoid blocking the sliding of the transmission rod.

De plus, le canal longitudinal formé par la paroi supérieure et les parois latérales de la tringle de transmission permet d'assurer un espace suffisant pour recevoir le moyen de fixation.In addition, the longitudinal channel formed by the top wall and the side walls of the transmission rod ensures sufficient space to receive the fixing means.

L'invention n'est pas limitée à une forme particulière du moyen de fixation, dans la mesure où ce moyen permet de fixer rigidement l'accessoire sur la tringle de transmission par percussion. Par exemple, la fixation peut être effectuée au moyen d'une vis, ou d'un poinçon.The invention is not limited to a particular form of the fixing means, insofar as this means makes it possible to rigidly fix the accessory on the transmission rod by percussion. For example, the fixing can be carried out by means of a screw, or of a punch.

Au sens de la présente invention, l'accessoire peut être une quelconque pièce apte à coopérer avec la tringle de transmission tant qu'il peut maintenir la tringle de transmission à l'intérieur de la rainure et ce sans empêcher le coulissement de la tringle. L'accessoire peut alors permettre d'éviter tout désengagement de la tringle de la rainure.Within the meaning of the present invention, the accessory can be any part capable of cooperating with the transmission rod as long as it can hold the transmission rod inside the groove and this without preventing the sliding of the rod. The accessory can then make it possible to avoid any disengagement of the rod from the groove.

De plus, avec le profil décrit ci-dessus, l'ajustement de l'accessoire sur la tringle de transmission peut s'effectuer au moment du montage à l'aide du moyen de fixation. Le temps de montage en est alors raccourci.In addition, with the profile described above, the adjustment of the accessory on the transmission rod can be carried out at the time of assembly using the fixing means. The assembly time is thus shortened.

De préférence, les parois latérales de la tringle de transmission peuvent être sensiblement inclinées vers la paroi supérieure de sorte que ladite partie centrale définisse, en coupe transversale, un profil trapézoïdal, ce qui confère à la tringle de transmission une certaine résistance à la compression et à l'usure.Preferably, the side walls of the transmission rod can be substantially inclined towards the upper wall so that said central part defines, in cross section, a trapezoidal profile, which gives the transmission rod a certain resistance to compression and to wear.

Avantageusement, le moyen de de fixation peut comprendre une vis présentant une extrémité susceptible de percer ladite paroi supérieure de la partie centrale. Cette caractéristique permet une fixation simple de la tringle de transmission et l'accessoire. Un orifice peut être ménagé sur l'accessoire et le moyen de fixation peut comprendre une vis présentant une tige filetée qui se termine par une extrémité libre susceptible de percer la tringle de transmission. Dans ce cas, on introduit d'abord l'extrémité de la vis à travers l'orifice de l'accessoire, puis on visse jusqu'à ce que la vis débouche sur la partie centrale de ladite tringle de transmission.Advantageously, the fixing means may comprise a screw having one end capable of piercing said upper wall of the central part. This feature allows easy attachment of the transmission rod and the accessory. An orifice may be made on the accessory and the fixing means may comprise a screw having a threaded rod which ends in a free end capable of piercing the transmission rod. In this case, the end of the screw is first introduced through the orifice of the accessory, then it is screwed until the screw opens onto the central part of said transmission rod.

Avantageusement, l'extrémité de la vis peut être située entre la paroi supérieure et la partie de fond. Par conséquent, les déchets générés au moment du perçage par la vis sont retenus dans le canal longitudinal fermé.Advantageously, the end of the screw can be located between the upper wall and the bottom part. Consequently, the waste generated at the time of drilling by the screw is retained in the closed longitudinal channel.

De préférence, la rainure de guidage peut définir une paroi de fond et deux parois latérales internes dressées par rapport à la paroi de fond.Preferably, the guide groove can define a bottom wall and two internal side walls raised with respect to the bottom wall.

La rainure peut avantageusement définir en outre deux rebords orientés l'un vers l'autre, en regard de la partie de fond, et s'étendant parallèlement ou sensiblement parallèlement à la partie de fond depuis deux extrémités respectives des parois latérales internes.The groove can advantageously further define two flanges oriented towards one another, facing the bottom part, and extending parallel or substantially parallel to the bottom part from two respective ends of the internal side walls.

Avantageusement, la rainure de guidage peut présenter deux rebords, chacun dressé par rapport à une paroi latérale interne respective de la rainure de guidage. Ces rebords s'étendent longitudinalement sur toute la longueur de la rainure de guidage. Les rebords présentent chacun une extrémité libre distante de la paroi latérale intérieure correspondante de la rainure de guidage. Ces deux extrémités libres définissent ensemble un espace d'insertion pour la tringle de transmission.Advantageously, the guide groove can have two flanges, each facing upward with respect to a respective internal side wall of the guide groove. These flanges extend longitudinally over the entire length of the guide groove. The flanges each have a free end remote from the corresponding inner side wall of the guide groove. These two free ends together define an insertion space for the transmission rod.

De préférence, la tringle de transmission présente en outre deux parties latérales situées sur des côtés de part et d'autres de la partie centrale. Ces parties latérales s'étendent longitudinalement sur toute la longueur. Ces parties latérales permettent de participer au recentrage, et lorsqu'elles sont suffisamment étendues latéralement pour venir sous des rebords de la rainure, de maintenir la tringle dans la rainure avant l'installation de l'accessoire.Preferably, the transmission rod also has two side parts located on either side of the central part. These side parts extend longitudinally over the entire length. These lateral parts make it possible to participate in the recentering, and when they are sufficiently extended laterally to come under the edges of the groove, to maintain the rod in the groove before installing the accessory.

Les parois latérales de la partie centrale peuvent présenter une partie supérieure adjacente à la paroi supérieure et une partie inférieure adjacente à la partie de fond. Avantageusement, les parois latérales s'étendent verticalement à partir de ladite partie inférieure de la paroi latérale sur toute la longueur de la tringle de transmission, et les parties latérales s'étendent latéralement à partir de ladite partie inférieure de la paroi latérale sur toute la longueur de la tringle de transmission. Dit autrement, la partie centrale s'étend verticalement en saillie par rapport aux parties latérales, et ce sur toute la longueur de la tringle.The side walls of the central part may have an upper part adjacent to the upper wall and a lower part adjacent to the bottom part. Advantageously, the side walls extend vertically from said lower part of the side wall over the entire length of the transmission rod, and the side parts extend laterally from said lower part of the side wall over the entire length. rod length transmission. In other words, the central part extends vertically projecting from the side parts, and this over the entire length of the rod.

L'accessoire peut être agencé pour non seulement recevoir aisément la tringle de transmission mais aussi retenir cette tringle relativement fermement dans la rainure de guidage. Dans ce cas, l'accessoire peut définir une rainure de réception, s'étendant longitudinalement, dans laquelle est destinée à venir s'encastrer la partie centrale de la tringle de transmission.The accessory can be arranged not only to easily receive the transmission rod but also to retain this rod relatively firmly in the guide groove. In this case, the accessory can define a receiving groove, extending longitudinally, in which the central part of the transmission rod is intended to fit.

Au sens de la présente invention, le terme «vertical» ne signifie pas nécessairement la direction suivant la pesanteur, mais doit être déterminé par rapport à la paroi de fond de la rainure de guidage.For the purposes of the present invention, the term “vertical” does not necessarily mean the direction according to gravity, but must be determined with respect to the bottom wall of the guide groove.

Avantageusement, la tringle de transmission peut présenter deux extrémités latérales opposées et l'accessoire peut présenter deux extrémités latérales. Chacune des extrémités latérales de l'accessoire définit avantageusement une nervure de retenue s'étendant longitudinalement et susceptible de venir entre une extrémité latérale correspondante de la tringle de transmission et la paroi latérale interne correspondante de la rainure de guidage. Ainsi, le recentrage de la tringle de transmission à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage est assuré.Advantageously, the transmission rod can have two opposite lateral ends and the accessory can have two lateral ends. Each of the lateral ends of the accessory advantageously defines a retaining rib extending longitudinally and capable of coming between a corresponding lateral end of the transmission rod and the corresponding internal lateral wall of the guide groove. Thus, the recentering of the transmission rod inside the guide groove is ensured.

De préférence, la paroi de fond de la rainure de guidage peut présenter une rainure de fond ménagée sur la paroi de fond de la rainure de guidage sur toute la longueur de la rainure de guidage. La rainure de guidage peut définir une autre rainure ménagée sur la paroi de fond, cette autre rainure permettant d'assurer un espace en dessous de ladite tringle de transmission (c'est-à-dire entre le fond de la rainure et la tringle). Grâce à cet espace, le coulissement fluide de la tringle de transmission est assuré même si le moyen de fixation débouche complétement sur la tringle de transmission de manière à former un déchet.Preferably, the bottom wall of the guide groove may have a bottom groove formed on the bottom wall of the guide groove over the entire length of the guide groove. The guide groove can define another groove made on the bottom wall, this other groove making it possible to ensure a space below said transmission rod (that is to say between the bottom of the groove and the rod) . Thanks to this space, the fluid sliding of the transmission rod is ensured even if the fixing means completely open onto the transmission rod so as to form waste.

La partie de fond peut présenter un téton destiné à être situé entre ladite partie de fond et ladite rainure de fond. Ce téton peut notamment s'étendre longitudinalement sur toute la longueur de la partie de fond de la partie centrale. Ainsi, le téton peut permettre de faciliter le recentrage de la tringle à l'intérieur de la rainure lors de l'installation de la tringle.The bottom part may have a stud intended to be located between said bottom part and said bottom groove. This nipple can in particular extend longitudinally over the entire length of the bottom portion of the central portion. Thus, the stud can make it possible to facilitate the recentering of the rod inside the groove during the installation of the rod.

Typiquement, la rainure de guidage a une section transversale identique sur toute la longueur.Typically, the guide groove has an identical cross section along the entire length.

Avantageusement, la tringle de transmission peut présenter, en section transversale, une plus grande distance T4 entre les deux extrémités latérales opposées identique sur toute la longueur.Advantageously, the transmission rod can have, in cross section, a greater distance T4 between the two opposite lateral ends which are identical over the entire length.

Avantageusement, la distance T4 peut remplir les conditions suivantes : T4≤R1 ; T4≤R3 ; et R2≤T4, à la précision d'usinage près, dans lesquelles : R1 est la distance, dans une section transversale, entre les parois latérales internes de la rainure de guidage ; R2 est la distance, dans une section transversale, entre lesdites extrémités libres des rebords; et R3 est la distance, dans une section transversale, entre l'extrémité libre de l'un des rebords et une intersection formée par la paroi de fond et la paroi latérale interne de la rainure de guidage adjacente à l'autre rebord.Advantageously, the distance T4 can meet the following conditions: T4≤R1; T4≤R3; and R2≤T4, accurate to machining, where: R1 is the distance, in a cross section, between the inner side walls of the guide groove; R2 is the distance, in cross section, between said free ends of the flanges; and R3 is the distance, in a cross section, between the free end of one of the flanges and an intersection formed by the bottom wall and the inner side wall of the guide groove adjacent to the other flange.

Ainsi, la tringle de transmission est à la fois apte à être insérée en façade et ses deux extrémités sont logées à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage. Par conséquent, il n'est pas nécessaire de prévoir un clippage sur l'accessoire pour assurer la fixation de la ferrure sur la rainure de guidage contrairement à celle qui est divulguée dans la demande EP 1 867 821 A1 . De plus, la tringle de transmission et la rainure de guidage peuvent présenter une forme sensiblement symétrique par rapport à un plan longitudinal et vertical. L'invention peut ainsi permettre de limiter le nombre de référencements pour les accessoires.Thus, the transmission rod is both able to be inserted on the front and its two ends are housed inside the guide groove. Consequently, it is not necessary to provide a clipping on the accessory to ensure the fixing of the fitting on the guide groove, unlike that which is disclosed in the application. EP 1 867 821 A1 . In addition, the transmission rod and the guide groove may have a shape that is substantially symmetrical with respect to a longitudinal and vertical plane. The invention can thus make it possible to limit the number of references for accessories.

Au surplus, le fait que la tringle de transmission puisse s'installer en façade permet non seulement de simplifier le montage mais aussi de diminuer l'espace de montage.In addition, the fact that the transmission rod can be installed on the front not only simplifies the assembly but also reduces the assembly space.

La présente invention concerne également un procédé de montage d'un profil comprenant une partie centrale qui s'étend longitudinalement sur toute la longueur de la tringle de transmission, cette partie centrale définissant une paroi supérieure, une paroi inférieure en regard de la paroi supérieure, et, de part et d'autre de ces parois supérieure et inférieure, deux parois latérales définissant avec ces parois supérieure et inférieure un canal s'étendant longitudinalement sur toute la longueur de la partie centrale et fermé en section transversale, comprenant les étapes suivantes : on insère la tringle de transmission à l'intérieur de ladite rainure de guidage, avantageusement en façade; on installe, avantageusement par coulissement latéral, l'accessoire sur la tringle de transmission; et on immobilise l'accessoire sur la tringle de transmission par un moyen de fixation par percussion, en perforant la surface supérieure du canal fermé, ledit moyen de fixation comprenant une vis présentant une extrémité susceptible de percer ladite paroi supérieure de la partie centrale.The present invention also relates to a method of mounting a profile comprising a central part which extends longitudinally over the entire length of the transmission rod, this central part defining an upper wall, a lower wall facing the upper wall, and, on either side of these upper and lower walls, two side walls defining with these upper and lower walls a channel extending longitudinally over the entire length of the central part and closed in cross section, comprising the following steps: the transmission rod is inserted inside said guide groove, advantageously on the front; is installed, advantageously by lateral sliding, the accessory on the transmission rod; and the accessory is immobilized on the transmission rod by a percussion fixing means, by perforating the upper surface of the closed channel, said fixing means comprising a screw having one end capable of piercing said upper wall of the central part.

Ce procédé assure donc un montage simple de l'accessoire et de la tringle de transmission tout en évitant le blocage du coulissement de la tringle de transmission.This method therefore ensures simple mounting of the accessory and of the transmission rod while avoiding blocking of the sliding of the transmission rod.

La figure 1 montre un profil 1 d'ouvrant ou de dormant notamment pour fenêtre ou porte en aluminium ou en matière plastique. Sur le profil 1 est ménagée une rainure de guidage longitudinal 3 s'étendant suivant une direction longitudinale (représentée par la double flèche D).The figure 1 shows a profile 1 of an opening or a frame, in particular for a window or door made of aluminum or plastic. On the profile 1 is formed a longitudinal guide groove 3 extending in a longitudinal direction (represented by the double arrow D).

La rainure de guidage longitudinal 3 présente une extrémité longitudinale 2.The longitudinal guide groove 3 has a longitudinal end 2.

Le profil 1 comporte en outre une tringle de transmission 5 logée à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage 3, et un accessoire, ou élément d'actionnement 7 coopérant avec la tringle de transmission 5.The profile 1 further comprises a transmission rod 5 housed inside the guide groove 3, and an accessory, or actuating element 7 cooperating with the transmission rod 5.

De préférence, la rainure de guidage 3, la tringle de transmission, et l'accessoire 7 sont formés dans un matériau métallique.Preferably, the guide groove 3, the transmission rod, and the accessory 7 are formed from a metallic material.

L'accessoire 7 présente ici un corps principal 8 longitudinal définissant des extrémités latérales 35, 35' (voir la figure 2). Les extrémités latérales 35, 35' de l'accessoire sont engagées, avec la tringle de transmission 5 dans la rainure de guidage 3 de façon mobile en translation.The accessory 7 here has a longitudinal main body 8 defining lateral ends 35, 35 '(see figure 2 ). The lateral ends 35, 35 'of the accessory are engaged, with the transmission rod 5 in the guide groove 3 movably in translation.

La tringle de transmission 5 et l'accessoire 7 sont ensuite fixés l'un sur l'autre à l'aide d'un moyen de fixation comprenant une vis 10. En l'occurrence, le corps principal de l'accessoire 7 définit un orifice traversant, dans lequel est reçue une vis, comme explicité ci-après.The transmission rod 5 and the accessory 7 are then fixed to one another using a fixing means comprising a screw 10. In this case, the main body of the accessory 7 defines a through hole, in which a screw is received, as explained below.

La figure 2 est une vue en coupe transversale du profil de la figure 1, suivant la ligne A-A'.The figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the profile of the figure 1 , following line A-A '.

La rainure de guidage 3 présente une paroi de fond 9 et deux parois latérales internes 11, 11' dressées par rapport à la paroi de fond 9.The guide groove 3 has a bottom wall 9 and two internal side walls 11, 11 'erect relative to the bottom wall 9.

La rainure de guidage 3 présente en outre deux rebords 13, 13' s'étendant perpendiculairement aux parois latérales 11, 11'. Chacun des rebords 13, 13' définit une surface interne inférieure 15, 15' en regard de la paroi de fond 9.The guide groove 3 also has two flanges 13, 13 'extending perpendicularly to the side walls 11, 11'. Each flanges 13, 13 'define a lower internal surface 15, 15' facing the bottom wall 9.

Les parois latérales internes 11, 11' présentent chacune une extrémité inférieure 17, 17' adjacente à la paroi de fond 9 et une extrémité supérieure 19, 19' située à l'opposé de la paroi de fond 9.The internal side walls 11, 11 'each have a lower end 17, 17' adjacent to the bottom wall 9 and an upper end 19, 19 'located opposite the bottom wall 9.

Les rebords 13, 13' présentant chacun une extrémité libre 21, 21' distante de l'extrémité supérieure 19, 19' de la paroi latérale intérieure 11, 11' correspondante. Ces extrémités libres 21, 21' définissent ensemble un espace d'insertion 41 (voir la figure 4) susceptible de recevoir la tringle de transmission 5.The flanges 13, 13 'each having a free end 21, 21' distant from the upper end 19, 19 'of the corresponding inner side wall 11, 11'. These free ends 21, 21 'together define an insertion space 41 (see figure 4 ) capable of receiving the transmission rod 5.

La paroi de fond 9 présente une rainure de fond 12 définie sur toute la longueur de la rainure.The bottom wall 9 has a bottom groove 12 defined over the entire length of the groove.

La tringle de transmission 5 présente une partie centrale 25 s'étendant longitudinalement sur toute la longueur et deux parties latérales 23, 23' situées sur des côtés opposées par rapport à la partie centrale 25. Les parties latérales 23, 23' de la tringle de transmission 5 présentent deux extrémités 31, 31'.The transmission rod 5 has a central portion 25 extending longitudinally over the entire length and two side portions 23, 23 'located on opposite sides with respect to the central portion 25. The side portions 23, 23' of the transmission rod. transmission 5 have two ends 31, 31 '.

La partie centrale 25 présente une paroi supérieure 27 et deux parois latérales 33, 33'. Chacune de ces parois latérales 33, 33' relie la paroi supérieure 27 à la partie latérale 23, 23' correspondante. La partie centrale 25 présente en outre une partie de fond 29 reliant les deux parties latérales 23, 23'. Les parois latérales de ladite partie centrale 25 présentent chacune une partie supérieure 34, 34' adjacente à la paroi supérieure 27 et une partie inférieure 36, 36' adjacente à la partie de fond 29. Chacune des parties latérales 23, 23' s'étendent latéralement à partir de la partie inférieure 36, 36' correspondante sur toute la longueur de ladite tringle de transmission 5.The central part 25 has an upper wall 27 and two side walls 33, 33 '. Each of these side walls 33, 33 'connects the top wall 27 to the corresponding side part 23, 23'. The central part 25 also has a bottom part 29 connecting the two side parts 23, 23 '. The side walls of said central part 25 each have an upper part 34, 34 'adjacent to the upper wall 27 and a lower part 36, 36' adjacent to the bottom part 29. Each of the side parts 23, 23 'extend laterally from the corresponding lower part 36, 36 'over the entire length of said transmission rod 5.

Ainsi, l'ensemble composé de la paroi supérieure 27, des parois latérales 33, 33' et de la partie de fond 29 forment un canal longitudinal fermé.Thus, the assembly consisting of the top wall 27, the side walls 33, 33 'and the bottom portion 29 form a closed longitudinal channel.

Les parois latérales 33, 33' sont sensiblement inclinées vers la paroi supérieure 27 de sorte que la partie centrale définisse un profil trapézoïdal en coupe transversale. Cette forme de la partie centrale 25 permet à la tringle de transmission 5 une relative résistance à la compression et à l'usure.The side walls 33, 33 'are substantially inclined towards the top wall 27 so that the central part defines a trapezoidal profile in cross section. This shape of the central part 25 allows the transmission rod 5 a relative resistance to compression and to wear.

L'accessoire 7 définit une rainure de réception 32 dans laquelle est destinée à venir s'encastrer la partie centrale 25 de la tringle de transmission 5. Les extrémités latérales 35, 35' de l'accessoire 7 présentent chacune une nervure de retenue 37, 37' qui vient encadrer les extrémités latérales 31, 31' correspondantes de la tringle de transmission 5. Ces nervures de retenue 37, 37' permettent de centrer la tringle de transmission 5 par rapport à la rainure de guidage 3. L'ensemble des extrémités latérales 35, 35' de l'accessoire 7 et les extrémités latérales 31, 31' de la tringle de transmission 5 viennent en butée contre les surfaces internes inférieures 15, 15' des rebords 13, 13' lorsque l'on entraine l'accessoire 7 vers l'extérieur de la rainure de guidage 3. L'ensemble de la tringle de transmission 5 et de l'accessoire 7 peut alors éviter de se désengager de la rainure de guidage 3.The accessory 7 defines a receiving groove 32 in which is intended to fit into the central part 25 of the transmission rod 5. The lateral ends 35, 35 'of the accessory 7 each have a retaining rib 37, 37 'which frames the corresponding lateral ends 31, 31' of the transmission rod 5. These retaining ribs 37, 37 'allow the transmission rod 5 to be centered relative to the guide groove 3. All of the ends side 35, 35 'of the accessory 7 and the lateral ends 31, 31' of the transmission rod 5 abut against the lower internal surfaces 15, 15 'of the flanges 13, 13' when the accessory is driven 7 towards the outside of the guide groove 3. The assembly of the transmission rod 5 and of the accessory 7 can then avoid disengaging from the guide groove 3.

Comme le montre la figure 2, la vis 10 débouche sur la paroi supérieure 27 de la partie centrale 25 à travers l'accessoire.As shown in the figure 2 , the screw 10 opens onto the upper wall 27 of the central part 25 through the accessory.

En référence à la figure 3, la rainure de guidage présente une section transversale identique sur toute la longueur. De plus, la tringle de transmission 5 présente, en section transversale, une même plus grande distance T4 entre lesdites deux extrémités latérales opposées 31, 31' sur toute la longueur.With reference to the figure 3 , the guide groove has an identical cross section over the entire length. In addition, the transmission rod 5 has, in cross section, an even greater distance T4 between said two opposite lateral ends 31, 31 'over the entire length.

Les distances R1, R2, R3 et T4 remplissent les conditions suivantes : T4≤R1 ; T4≤R3 ; et R2≤T4 dans lesquelles, sur une section transversale :

  • R1 est la distance entre les extrémités inférieures 17, 17' des parois latérales interne 11, 11',
  • R2 est une distance entre les extrémités libres 21, 21' des rebords 13, 13',
  • R3 est la distance entre l'extrémité libre 21, 21' de l'un des rebords 13' et une intersection 39 formée par la paroi de fond 9 et la paroi latérale interne 11 adjacente à l'autre rebord 13.
The distances R1, R2, R3 and T4 meet the following conditions: T4≤R1; T4≤R3; and R2≤T4 in which, on a cross section:
  • R1 is the distance between the lower ends 17, 17 'of the inner side walls 11, 11',
  • R2 is a distance between the free ends 21, 21 'of the flanges 13, 13',
  • R3 is the distance between the free end 21, 21 'of one of the flanges 13' and an intersection 39 formed by the bottom wall 9 and the internal side wall 11 adjacent to the other flange 13.

Ces conditions sont remplies à la précision d'usinage près. C'est-à-dire que, puisque T4≤R1, la tringle de transmission 5 peut coulisser à l'intérieur de la rainure, puisque T4≤R3, la tringle de transmission 5 peut être insérée par l'espace d'insertion 41, et puisque R2≤T4, les deux extrémités de la tringle de transmission peuvent être retenus par les surfaces internes inférieures 15, 15' des rebords 13, 13'. Ces dimensions permettent donc, non seulement d'insérer la tringle de transmission 5 via l'espace d'insertion 41, c'est-à-dire en façade, mais aussi de loger entièrement les deux extrémités latérales 31, 31' de la tringle de transmission 5 à l'intérieur de ladite rainure de guidage 3 et en dessous des rebords 13, 13'.These conditions are fulfilled to within the machining precision. That is, since T4≤R1, the transmission rod 5 can slide inside the groove, since T4≤R3, the transmission rod 5 can be inserted through the insert space 41 , and since R2≤T4, the two ends of the transmission rod can be retained by the lower internal surfaces 15, 15 'of the flanges 13, 13'. These dimensions therefore make it possible not only to insert the transmission rod 5 via the insertion space 41, that is to say on the front, but also to fully accommodate the two lateral ends 31, 31 'of the rod. transmission 5 inside said guide groove 3 and below the flanges 13, 13 '.

On décrira à présent, en référence aux Figures 1, 2 et 4, un mode de montage du profil 1.We will now describe, with reference to Figures 1, 2 and 4 , a mounting method for profile 1.

Comme le montre la figure 4, on insère tout d'abord la tringle de transmission 5, par l'une des extrémités latérales 31', à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage 3 via l'espace d'insertion 41 jusqu'à ce que l'extrémité latérale 31' s'applique contre l'intersection 39. Ensuite, on insère également l'autre extrémité latérale 31 à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage 3. Une fois que les extrémités latérales 31, 31' sont complètement logées à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage 3, on insère l'accessoire 7 par l'extrémité longitudinale 2 de manière à ce que chacune des nervures de retenue 37, 37' se glisse entre l'extrémité latérale de 31, 31' et la paroi latérale interne 11, 11' de la rainure de guidage, puis on entraine l'accessoire en translation jusqu'à ce qu'il trouve sa position définitive.As shown in the figure 4 , we first insert the transmission rod 5, by one of the lateral ends 31 ', inside the guide groove 3 via the insertion space 41 until the lateral end 31 'is applied against the intersection 39. Then, the other side end 31 is also inserted inside the guide groove 3. Once the side ends 31, 31' are completely housed inside of the guide groove 3, the accessory 7 is inserted through the longitudinal end 2 so that each of the retaining ribs 37, 37 'slides between the side end of 31, 31' and the internal side wall 11, 11 'of the guide groove, then the accessory is driven in translation until it finds its final position.

Puisque l'accessoire 7 présente en général une longueur relativement faible, l'accessoire 7 peut être inséré par l'entrée longitudinale de la tringle de transmission 5 et installé latéralement en coulissement à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage 3, et ce sans occasionner de perte notable de temps et d'espace.Since the accessory 7 generally has a relatively short length, the accessory 7 can be inserted through the entry longitudinal of the transmission rod 5 and slidably installed laterally inside the guide groove 3, without causing significant loss of time and space.

Ensuite, on introduit une vis 10 présentant une tige filetée dont l'extrémité libre est en pointe concave (non présentée), à l'intérieur de l'orifice 14 préalablement ménagé sur l'accessoire, et on visse jusqu'à ce que l'extrémité de la vis 10 arrive au niveau de la tringle de transmission 5. Dans un mode de réalisation alternatif et non représenté, la vis 10 peut être prémontée sur l'accessoire 7. On continue à visser pour que la vis 10 perce la paroi supérieure 27 de la partie centrale 25 pour forme un orifice traversant. Une fois percée, la tringle de transmission 5 est alors fixée à l'accessoire 7 de manière rigide. Lors du perçage de la paroi supérieure, des déchets sont produits. Toutefois, le canal longitudinal fermé permet de retenir ces déchets à son intérieur. Par conséquent, on peut éviter le blocage du coulissement de la tringle de transmission.
Enfin, la figure 5 montre un exemple de tringle de transmission selon un deuxième mode de réalisation de l'invention. Ce mode diffère du premier mode en ce que la tringle de transmission 5' est munie d'un téton 43 en dessous de la partie de fond 29'. Grâce au téton 43, la tringle de transmission 5 ne tombera pas dans la rainure de fond 12 lors du montage. De plus, ce téton permet de faciliter le centrage de la tringle de transmission 5 à l'intérieur de la rainure de guidage 3.Next, a screw 10 having a threaded rod, the free end of which is at a concave point (not shown), is introduced inside the orifice 14 previously made on the accessory, and it is screwed until the the end of the screw 10 arrives at the level of the transmission rod 5. In an alternative embodiment and not shown, the screw 10 can be pre-assembled on the accessory 7. One continues to screw so that the screw 10 pierces the wall upper 27 of the central part 25 to form a through orifice. Once pierced, the transmission rod 5 is then fixed to the accessory 7 in a rigid manner. When drilling the top wall, waste is produced. However, the closed longitudinal channel allows this waste to be retained inside it. Therefore, blocking of the sliding of the transmission rod can be avoided.
Finally, the figure 5 shows an example of a transmission rod according to a second embodiment of the invention. This mode differs from the first mode in that the transmission rod 5 'is provided with a stud 43 below the bottom part 29'. Thanks to the stud 43, the transmission rod 5 will not fall into the bottom groove 12 during assembly. In addition, this stud makes it possible to facilitate the centering of the transmission rod 5 inside the guide groove 3.
