Description

L'invention concerne un ensemble incluant un appareil de chauffage tel qu'un insert ou un poêle et une porte vitrée située sur la façade de cet appareil.An assembly includes a heater such as an insert or stove and a glass door on the front of this appliance.

Actuellement les portes vitrées de façade des appareils de chauffage tels que les inserts et les poêles, ont systématiquement des faces intérieures qui se recouvrent d'une couche de suie après quelques heures de combustion, ce qui nuit au charme visuel des flammes. En outre, cette couche noirâtre s'épaissit au fil des heures de combustion, occultant totalement l'intérieur du foyer. La vitre de la porte nécessite un nettoyage manuel et régulier de sa face intérieure. De plus, la persistance d'une couche de suie sur la face intérieure de la porte se transforme généralement en une croûte qui entraîne de grosses difficultés pour l'éliminer, aux risques de provoquer des rayures, et qui oblige très souvent à l'emploi de produits chimiques. Un autre inconvénient réside dans le fait que la couche de suie peut s'enflammer et détériorer la porte de façade. En outre, l'ouverture de la porte de l'appareil conduit fréquemment à un risque de répandre sur le sol, au pied de l'appareil, des éclats de braise et des cendres provenant de la chambre de combustion.Currently the front glass doors of heaters such as inserts and stoves, have systematically internal faces that overlap with a layer of soot after a few hours of combustion, which affects the visual charm of the flames. In addition, this blackish layer thickens over the hours of combustion, completely obscuring the interior of the home. The door glass requires manual and regular cleaning of the inside of the door. In addition, the persistence of a soot layer on the inside of the door usually turns into a crust that causes great difficulties to eliminate it, at the risk of causing scratches, and which very often requires the use of chemicals. Another disadvantage is that the soot layer can ignite and damage the facade door. In addition, the opening of the door of the device frequently leads to a risk of spreading on the ground, at the bottom of the device, bursts of embers and ashes from the combustion chamber.

La publication de demande de brevet américain N° US 4,121,560 décrit un poêle dont le corps présente une ouverture de façade, et qui comprend une porte vitrée de façade. La porte vitrée est positionnée vers l'extérieur par rapport à l'ouverture de façade et en vis-à-vis de cette ouverture, et forme une avancée extérieure faisant saillie par rapport à la paroi du corps de l'appareil ; la porte vitrée comporte une vitre de façade et une armature métallique et est montée pivotante sur le corps de l'appareil par l'un de ses côtés latéraux.U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US 4,121,560 describes a stove whose body has a facade opening, and which includes a front glass door. The glazed door is positioned outwards with respect to the front opening and opposite this opening, and forms an external projection protruding from the wall of the body of the apparatus; the glass door has a front glass and a metal frame and is pivotally mounted on the body of the device by one of its lateral sides.

Cette structure de porte vitrée permet de protéger la vitre de façade à l'égard du dépôt de suie ; par contre, elle présente l'inconvénient de rendre possible un dépôt de cendres sur le devant de l'appareil lors de l'ouverture de la porte.This glazed door structure makes it possible to protect the facade glass with respect to the deposit of soot; on the other hand, it has the disadvantage of making possible a deposit of ash on the front of the device when opening the door.

Le document WO 00/23749 A1 est également pertinent par rapport à l'invention. La présente invention a pour but de pallier à l'inconvénient précité.The document WO 00/23749 A1 is also relevant to the invention. The present invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawback.

Dans l'ensemble concerné, de manière connue, l'appareil de chauffage comprend un corps présentant une ouverture de façade et ladite porte vitrée est montée sur ce corps, en vis-à-vis de cette ouverture ; la porte vitrée est positionnée vers l'extérieur par rapport à l'ouverture de façade et forme une avancée extérieure faisant saillie par rapport à la paroi du corps de l'appareil ; la porte vitrée inclut une armature et une vitre de façade, et est montée pivotante sur le corps de l'appareil par l'un de ses côtés latéraux.In the assembly concerned, in known manner, the heater comprises a body having a front opening and said glazed door is mounted on this body, vis-à-vis this opening; the glass door is positioned outwards with respect to the facade opening and forms an external projection projecting from the wall of the body of the apparatus; the glazed door includes a frame and a front pane, and is pivotally mounted on the body of the apparatus by one of its lateral sides.

Selon l'invention, la vitre de façade est montée sur un châssis monté lui-même pivotant sur ladite armature, par un de ses côtés latéraux, le pivotement de la vitre et du châssis se faisant entre une position de fermeture, dans laquelle le châssis est au contact de l'armature, et une position d'ouverture, dans laquelle la vitre et le châssis forment un angle d'au moins 90° avec le plan dans lequel s'étend généralement l'ouverture de façade.According to the invention, the facade glass is mounted on a frame mounted itself pivoting on said frame, by one of its lateral sides, the pivoting of the window and the frame being between a closed position, in which the frame is in contact with the armature, and an open position, in which the window and the frame form an angle of at least 90 ° with the plane in which the front opening generally extends.

Ainsi, la vitre et le châssis sont aptes à être pivotés par rapport à l'armature sur un angle d'au moins 90°, allant de préférence jusqu'à 180°, voire plus, de telle sorte que la face postérieure de la vitre (c'est-à-dire celle tournée du côté de la chambre de combustion que forme le corps de l'appareil de chauffage lorsque la porte vitrée est fermée) puisse être aisément nettoyée, sans risque de chute d'éclats de braise et de cendres sur le devant du poêle, ces éclats et/ou cendres étant retenus par le bord inférieur de ladite armature.Thus, the window and the frame are adapted to be pivoted relative to the frame at an angle of at least 90 °, preferably up to 180 ° or more, so that the rear face of the window (that is to say, that turned towards the combustion chamber that forms the body of the heater when the glass door is closed) can be easily cleaned, without risk of falling bursts of ember and ash on the front of the stove, these chips and / or ash being retained by the lower edge of said frame.

La distance d'éloignement de la face antérieure de la vitre par rapport à l'ouverture de façade peut varier selon la forme et le volume intérieur de l'appareil, d'une distance minimale de quatre centimètres, jusqu'à une distance maximale de quatorze centimètres.The distance from the front side of the window to the façade opening may vary according to the shape and the internal volume of the appliance, from a distance of at least four centimeters to a maximum distance of fourteen centimeters.

La porte vitrée peut avoir toutes formes envisageable ; elle présente de préférence une forme carrée ou rectangulaire, avec des côtés latéraux verticaux et des côtés supérieur et inférieur horizontaux.The glass door can have any conceivable shape; it preferably has a square or rectangular shape, with vertical lateral sides and horizontal upper and lower sides.

De préférence, les côtés latéraux et le côté supérieur de l'armature sont ajourés et sont fermés au moyen de vitres, à l'exception du côté inférieur de la porte vitrée.Preferably, the lateral sides and the upper side of the frame are perforated and are closed by means of panes, except for the lower side of the glass door.

Cette structure permet de visualiser la présence de cendres sur le côté inférieur de l'armature. De plus, elle permet une visibilité accrue des flammes.This structure makes it possible to visualize the presence of ash on the lower side of the frame. In addition, it allows increased visibility of the flames.

De préférence, le côté inférieur de l'armature reçoit une plaque métallique pourvue, sur le côté de cette plaque destiné, lors du fonctionnement, à se trouver à proximité immédiate de ladite ouverture de façade, d'au moins un rebord orienté vers le haut, destiné, lors du fonctionnement, à s'étendre le long du bord inférieur de l'ouverture de façade.Preferably, the underside of the armature receives a metal plate provided, on the side of this plate intended, during operation, to be in the immediate vicinity of said front opening, at least one oriented rim upwards, intended, during operation, to extend along the lower edge of the front opening.

Ce rebord permet ainsi une rétention des éclats de braise ou des cendres lors de l'ouverture de la porte vitrée par rapport au corps de l'appareil, et permet également de protéger la vitre de façade contre des éclats de braise lors de la combustion.This rim thus allows a retention of bursts of ember or ashes during the opening of the glass door relative to the body of the device, and also protects the front glass against bursts of embers during combustion.

La plaque métallique est de préférence positionnée sur l'armature de manière amovible ; notamment, elle est maintenue sur cette armature au moyen de vis.The metal plate is preferably positioned on the frame removably; in particular, it is held on this frame by means of screws.

Ce montage permet une possibilité de retrait de la plaque métallique pour procéder à un éventuel nettoyage de la porte vitrée.This arrangement allows a possibility of removal of the metal plate to proceed to a possible cleaning of the glass door.

De préférence, ledit rebord longitudinal s'étend sur l'ensemble de la périphérie de ladite plaque métallique, donnant à cette plaque métallique la forme d'un bac qui permet de retenir les éclats de braise et la cendre.Preferably, said longitudinal flange extends over the entire periphery of said metal plate, giving the metal plate the shape of a tray that allows to retain the ember flakes and ash.

Les différentes vitres de la porte vitrée sont immobilisées sur l'armature par l'entremise de joints tressés en fibre de verre ayant des propriétés anti-feu, pour prévenir les éventuels jets de braises lors de la combustion.The different panes of the glass door are immobilized on the frame by means of fiberglass braided joints having fire-resistant properties, to prevent any throwing of embers during combustion.

Lors de la fermeture de la porte vitrée, les côtés de l'armature viennent en contact avec le corps de l'appareil sur la périphérie de l'ouverture de façade, au moyen d'un joint tressé de fibre de verre, ces côtés établissant ainsi une étanchéité aux dégagements de gaz et de fumées pouvant virevolter dans le foyer lors de la combustion.When closing the glass door, the sides of the frame come into contact with the body of the apparatus on the periphery of the facade opening, by means of a braided fiberglass joint, these sides establishing and a tightness to the clearances of gas and smoke that can twirl in the home during combustion.

De préférence, des espaces pour des passages d'air vers l'intérieur du corps de l'appareil sont aménagés sur le pourtour de l'armature, entre le châssis et ladite armature.Preferably, spaces for air passages to the interior of the body of the apparatus are arranged on the periphery of the frame, between the frame and said frame.

La porte vitrée peut être réalisée dans des formes variables pour donner des esthétiques différentes sans se départir de l'invention, avec un nombre de côtés plus important ou avec l'emploi de vitres bombées ; en effet, la vitre peut être plate ou peut présenter une surface bombée et comporter sur ses pourtours des côtés droits ou bombés. Notamment, la vitre peut être courbe et les côtés supérieur et inférieur de l'armature peuvent présenter des bords libres courbés, dont les courbures épousent la courbure développée par la vitre bombée.The glazed door can be made in variable shapes to give different aesthetics without departing from the invention, with a larger number of sides or with the use of curved panes; indeed, the pane may be flat or may have a curved surface and have on its periphery straight or curved sides. In particular, the pane may be curved and the upper and lower sides of the frame may have curved free edges, whose curvatures match the curvature developed by the curved pane.

De préférence, le châssis s'étend sur l'ensemble du pourtour de la vitre.Preferably, the frame extends over the entire periphery of the window.

Il est décrit ci-après, en référence aux figures annexées, et à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, différents modes de réalisation de l'invention, permettant de faciliter la compréhension de cette invention et autres détails de celle-ci.

  • The figure 5 is an angled insert with a glazed door in closed position, whose front window is open and curved.

Les figures 1, 2, 3 et 4 représentent la paroi de façade 2 du corps d'un appareil de chauffage tel qu'un insert ou un poêle, équipé d'une porte vitrée 1.The Figures 1, 2 , 3 and 4 represent the front wall 2 of the body of a heating appliance such as an insert or a stove, equipped with a glass door 1.

Ladite paroi de façade 2 comprend une ouverture de façade 3 apte à être fermée par la porte vitrée 1.Said front wall 2 comprises a front opening 3 adapted to be closed by the glass door 1.

La porte vitrée 1 est située à l'extérieur par rapport à la zone de la paroi 2 définissant la périphérie de l'ouverture de façade 3.The glazed door 1 is located outside with respect to the zone of the wall 2 defining the periphery of the front opening 3.

La porte vitrée 1 comprend une armature 4 et une vitre de façade 5, l'armature 4 ayant des côtés 6, 7, 8, 9 situés sur le pourtour de la vitre 5.The glazed door 1 comprises a frame 4 and a front window 5, the frame 4 having sides 6, 7, 8, 9 situated around the periphery of the window 5.

Les côtés 6, 7 situés respectivement à droite et à gauche, ainsi que le côté supérieur 8, sur le pourtour de la porte vitrée 1, sont ajourés et fermés au moyen de vitres de façon que ladite porte vitrée 1 laisse une large vision des flammes ; la vitre 5 et les côtés 6, 7, 8, 9 délimitent un espace clos communiquant avec l'ouverture de façade 3 de l'appareil.The sides 6, 7 located respectively on the right and on the left, as well as the upper side 8, around the periphery of the glass door 1, are perforated and closed by means of panes so that said glass door 1 leaves a wide view of the flames ; the window 5 and the sides 6, 7, 8, 9 define an enclosed space communicating with the front opening 3 of the device.

La figure 4 montre une forme de réalisation préférentielle de l'invention, dans laquelle le côté inférieur 9 de la porte vitrée comporte une plaque métallique 27 posée sur l'armature 4 ; la plaque métallique 27 comporte sur son pourtour un rebord 28 orienté vers le haut, conférant à la plaque la forme d'un bac, cette plaque 27 permettant de contenir les éclats de braise et les cendres. La plaque métallique 27 est immobilisée sur l'armature 4 au moyen de vis 30 engagées dans des orifices 29 aménagés sur ladite plaque métallique 27 et sur ladite armature 4.The figure 4 shows a preferred embodiment of the invention, in which the lower side 9 of the glass door comprises a metal plate 27 placed on the frame 4; the metal plate 27 has on its periphery a rim 28 facing upwards, giving the plate the shape of a tray, this plate 27 for containing the bursts of embers and ashes. The plaque metal 27 is immobilized on the armature 4 by means of screws 30 engaged in orifices 29 arranged on said metal plate 27 and on said armature 4.

La porte vitrée 1 pivote par le côté 6, au moyen de gonds 10 fixés d'une part à l'armature 4, sur le côté 6, et d'autre part à la paroi 2 de l'appareil, au niveau de la périphérie de l'ouverture de façade 3, permettant l'ouverture de la porte vitrée 1 pour accéder au foyer. La porte vitrée 1 se verrouille sur la paroi 2, au niveau du côté 7 opposé au côté 6, au moyen d'une poignée 11 fixée sur l'armature 4 ; ainsi la porte vitrée 1 vient se juxtaposer contre la périphérie de l'ouverture de façade 3.The glazed door 1 pivots by the side 6, by means of hinges 10 fixed on the one hand to the frame 4, on the side 6, and on the other hand to the wall 2 of the apparatus, at the periphery the front opening 3, allowing the opening of the glass door 1 to access the fireplace. The glazed door 1 is locked on the wall 2, at the side 7 opposite the side 6, by means of a handle 11 fixed to the frame 4; thus the glass door 1 is juxtaposed against the periphery of the facade opening 3.

La vitre 5 est portée par un châssis 13 qui entoure le bord périphérique de cette vitre 5. Le châssis 13 pivote par le biais de pivots (éléments connus et non représentés dans les dessins) présents sur l'armature 4, permettant ainsi une ouverture pour un accès direct au foyer, sans requérir la manipulation de l'ensemble de la porte vitrée 1, ou pour un nettoyage régulier de la face postérieure de cette vitre 5. La vitre 5 est refermée par le biais d'une poignée 14 de préhension et ladite vitre 5 se verrouille contre l'armature 4.The window 5 is carried by a frame 13 which surrounds the peripheral edge of this window 5. The frame 13 pivots by means of pivots (elements known and not shown in the drawings) present on the frame 4, thus allowing an opening for direct access to the fireplace, without requiring the manipulation of the entire glass door 1, or for regular cleaning of the rear face of this window 5. The window 5 is closed by means of a handle 14 and said window 5 is locked against the frame 4.

En position fermée de la vitre 5, le châssis 13 est juxtaposé à la face avant de l'armature 4. Entre le châssis 13 et l'armature 4 sont aménagés, sur le pourtour de cette armature, des espaces (non dessinés) pour des passages d'air de manière à laisser entrer des courants d'air pour conforter le tirage du conduit de cheminée, si nécessaire. La porte vitrée 1 et la vitre 5 sont de préférence manoeuvrées à des moments différents, mais peuvent être ouvertes simultanément et indépendamment l'une de l'autre.In the closed position of the window 5, the frame 13 is juxtaposed with the front face of the frame 4. Between the frame 13 and the frame 4 are arranged, on the periphery of this frame, spaces (not drawn) for air passages to allow drafts to reinforce chimney draft, if necessary. The glazed door 1 and the window 5 are preferably operated at different times, but can be opened simultaneously and independently of one another.

La figure 5 montre une forme de réalisation de la porte vitrée 1 dans laquelle la vitre 16 est courbe, vue dans un plan horizontal. La vitre bombée 16 a une largeur égale à la largeur de l'ouverture de façade 3 et possède sensiblement la même hauteur que celle-ci. L'armature 4 comporte alors sur son pourtour des côtés latéraux ainsi qu'un côté supérieur 17 et un côté inférieur 18. Le côté supérieur 17 et le côté inférieur 18 ont des bords libres présentant respectivement une courbure qui épouse et se juxtapose à la courbure développée par la vitre 16. Cette dernière est portée par un châssis périphérique qui pivote sur l'armature 4 au moyen de gonds 19 permettant son ouverture pour accéder directement au foyer et évitant ainsi la manipulation de l'ensemble de la porte vitrée 1. La vitre 16 se verrouille également avec une poignée 14 fixée sur son châssis.The figure 5 shows an embodiment of the glass door 1 in which the window 16 is curved, seen in a horizontal plane. The curved window 16 has a width equal to the width of the front opening 3 and has substantially the same height as this one. The armature 4 then has on its periphery lateral sides as well as an upper side 17 and a lower side 18. The upper side 17 and the lower side 18 have free edges respectively having a curvature which marries and juxtaposes to the curvature developed by the window 16. The latter is carried by a peripheral frame which pivots on the frame 4 by means of hinges 19 allowing its opening to directly access the home and avoiding thus the handling of the entire glass door 1. The window 16 is also locked with a handle 14 fixed on its frame.

L'emploi d'une vitre courbe ou bombée permet de réaliser les côtés situés sur la droite et la gauche de l'armature 4 avec des largeurs légèrement inférieures tout en respectant une distance suffisante de ladite vitre bombée 16 par rapport au foyer pour éviter le dépôt de suie.The use of a curved or curved glass makes it possible to make the sides situated on the right and the left of the frame 4 with slightly smaller widths while respecting a sufficient distance from said curved glass pane 16 with respect to the fireplace to avoid the soot deposit.

La porte vitrée 1 et la vitre 16 sont de préférence manoeuvrées à des moments différents, mais peuvent être ouvertes simultanément et indépendamment l'une de l'autre.The glazed door 1 and the window 16 are preferably operated at different times, but can be opened simultaneously and independently of one another.
