Definitions

• the present invention relates to a sliding door system for closing an opening in a wall by means of a sliding door.
• the sliding door system according to the present invention comprises:
• a guide system configured to guide the sliding door in a sliding direction parallel to the wall between a closed position and open position, wherein in the closed position the opening is closed by the sliding door and in the open position the opening is at least partially opened, wherein
• Such sliding door systems are known for sealing closure of openings in walls.
• Arranged along the edges of the sliding door in such known sliding door systems are sealing strips which, when the sliding door is guided in the direction of the wall as it approaches the closed position, come into contact with the wall around the opening so that the opening is sealed in the closed position of the sliding door.
• the sealing strips move clear of the wall so that the sliding door can slide parallel along the wall into the open position without wear to the sealing strip.
• Spaces can for instance be closed watertightly and/or airtightly by means of such known sliding door systems.
• the present invention has for its object, among others, to improve the known sliding door systems.
• the invention provides for this purpose a sliding door system for closing an opening in a wall, preferably a flat wall, by means of a sliding door, wherein the guide system comprises, positioned at two opposite edges of the sliding door:
• the first closing and opening guide surfaces each extend in a plane which intersects the plane in which the wall extends and which extends perpendicularly relative to a reference plane running parallel to the sliding direction and extending perpendicularly relative to the plane in which the wall extends.
• Such a sliding door system according to the invention can provide exceptionally good resistance to forces which are exerted perpendicularly of the plane in which the sliding door of the sliding door system according to the invention extends and which push the sliding door away from the wall. Such forces occur for instance when the sliding door closes a space watertightly from outside and the closed space fills with water after being closed.
• the guide members are then pressed against the closing guide surfaces which, because of the orientation thereof, counteract a part of the force exerted on the sliding door, i.e. the force component perpendicularly of the plane in which the guide surfaces extend.
• the part of the force exerted on the sliding door which is not counteracted by the closing guide surfaces i.e. the force component parallel to the plane in which the guide surfaces extend, can be easily counteracted by exerting a force on the sliding door in the sliding direction of the sliding door in the direction of the closed position of the sliding door.
• the first opening guide surfaces and the guide members co-acting therewith make it possible for the sliding door to be opened easily from the closed position thereof by exerting a force on the sliding door in the sliding direction in the direction of the open position of the sliding door.
• the first closing and opening guide surfaces are positioned at two opposite edges of the sliding door, in particular two edges parallel to the sliding direction, so that the sliding door is pressed at two opposite edges against the wall in the closed position of the sliding door, and the sliding door is pressed away from the wall at two opposite edges when leaving the closed position.
• the sliding door system according to the invention is suitable for closing openings in vertically oriented walls as well as openings in horizontally oriented walls.
• the angle between the plane in which the first closing guide surfaces extend and the plane in which the wall extends determines the ratio of the force component counteracted by the first closing guide surfaces and the force component which must be counteracted by exerting a force on the sliding door in the sliding direction thereof.
• the angle between the plane in which the first opening guide surfaces extend and the plane in which the wall extends affects the force which must be exerted on the sliding door in the sliding direction in order to open the sliding door. With a view to effectiveness of the closure and convenience of operation of the sliding door, a relatively small angle is favourable.
• the angle between the plane in which the closing guide surfaces extend and the plane in which the wall extends also determines the path covered by the sliding door in the sliding direction when the sliding door is guided in the direction of the wall, and thereby affects the extent of the shearing load on a closing strip during closing of the sliding door.
• the angle between the plane in which the first opening guide surfaces extend and the plane in which the wall extends determines the path covered by the sliding door in the sliding direction when the sliding door is guided away from the wall, and thereby affects the extent of shearing load on a closing strip.
• the angle between the plane in which the first opening guide surfaces and the first closing guide surfaces extend and the plane in which the wall extends lies according to the invention in the range of 1° to 30°, preferably 6° to 15°. Such values for said angle are found to provide a good balance between effectiveness of closure and ease of opening on the one hand and the reliability of closure on the other. A very good balance is found in the case said angle lies in the range of 8° to 13°, and particularly in the case said angle is 11°.
• the first opening and closing guide surfaces preferably run parallel. This is not essential however.
• the guide system comprises, connecting to the first opening and closing guide surfaces, guide surfaces extending in a plane parallel to the plane in which the wall extends.
• these guide surfaces extending parallel to the wall guide the sliding door during the displacement parallel to the wall before the sliding door is guided in the direction of the wall and after it is guided away from the wall during respectively closing and opening of the sliding door. Because these guide surfaces extending par allel to the wall connect to the first opening and closing guide surfaces, for the guiding along these guide surfaces use can be made of the guide members which co-act with the opening and closing guide surfaces.
• the guide members co-acting with the first opening and closing guide surfaces comprise guide wheels rotatable around a rotation axis extending perpendicularly of the reference plane. Guide wheels oriented in this manner are particularly suitable to serve as guide members which co-act with the opening and closing guide surfaces, particularly in the embodiment wherein guide surfaces running parallel to the wall connect to the first opening and closing guide surfaces.
• the second closing and opening guide surfaces each extend in a plane which intersects the reference plane and which extends perpendicularly relative to the plane in which the wall extends. Because of their orientation, the second closing and opening guide surfaces provide for a guiding of the sliding door in a direction transversely of the sliding direction and parallel to the wall independently of the guiding of the sliding door toward and away from the wall by the first closing and opening guide surfaces. In the case where a force is exerted perpendicularly of the closed sliding door which pushes the sliding door away from the wall, this force will, as described above, not result in a force component in the direction transversely of the sliding direction and parallel to the wall.
• the force component parallel to the first closing guide surfaces is available to push the sliding door out of the closed position thereof.
• This force component parallel to the first closing guide surfaces must here displace the sliding door in the sliding direction.
• the force component parallel to the first closing guide surfaces is however counteracted in this preferred embodiment by the force which must be exerted on the sliding door in the sliding direction in order to displace the sliding door by means of the second opening guide surfaces in the direction transversely of the sliding direction and parallel to the wall from the second position to the first position.
• the second closing and opening guide surfaces hereby provide a force which counteracts the force component parallel to the first closing guide surfaces, and thereby counteracts opening of the sliding door.
• the gravitational force can contribute toward the force counteracting the force component parallel to the first closing guide surfaces by moving the sliding door downward by means of the second closing guide surfaces during the displacement of the sliding door.
• the sliding door must then be displaced from the second position to the first position counter to the gravitational force.
• the angle between the plane in which the second closing and opening guide surfaces extend and the reference plane lies according to the invention in the range of 1° to 30°, preferably 6° to 15°. Such values of said angle are found to provide a good balance between effectiveness of the closure on the one hand and ease of operation of the sliding door on the other. A very good balance is found in the case said angle lies in the range of 8° to 13°, and particularly in the case said angle is 11°.
• the first opening and closing guide surfaces preferably run parallel, or coincide as in the exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing. This is not essential however.
• first closing and opening guide surfaces and the second closing and opening guide surfaces function independently of each other, the above stated angles of the first closing and opening guide surfaces and the second closing and opening guide surfaces can also be chosen independently of each other, subject to the specific application.
• the guide system comprises, connecting to the second opening and closing guide surfaces, guide surfaces extending in a plane parallel to the reference plane.
• These guide surfaces extending parallel to the reference plane guide the sliding door during the displacement before the sliding door is displaced from the first position to the second position and after the sliding door is displaced from the second position to the first position during respective closing and opening of the sliding door. Because these guide surfaces extending parallel to the reference plane connect to the second opening and closing guide surfaces, for the guiding along these guide surfaces use can be made of the guide members co-acting with the second opening and closing guide surfaces.
• the guide members co-acting with the second opening and closing guide surfaces comprise guide wheels rotatable around a rotation axis extending perpendicularly of the plane in which the wall extends.
• Guide wheels oriented in this manner are particularly suitable to serve as guide members which co-act with the second opening and closing guide surfaces, particularly in the embodiment wherein guide surfaces running parallel to the reference plane connect to the second opening and closing guide surfaces.
• the system comprises a number of slide rails which define the guide surfaces.
• Surfaces of slide rails can serve in favourable manner as the guide surfaces of a sliding door system according to the invention.
• the slide rails comprise a profile of substantially U- shaped cross-section.
• Surfaces of slide rails of such shape are particularly favourable for use as the guide surfaces of a sliding door system according to the invention.
