Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine des dispositifs de montage d'un panneau dans un châssis de vantail se présentant sous forme de cales de positionnement d'un panneau, notamment d'un panneau de vitrage, dans le châssis d'un vantail.The present invention relates to the field of devices for mounting a panel in a leaf frame in the form of positioning wedges of a panel, in particular a glazing panel, in the frame of a leaf.

Il existe de façon classique des cales en bois, en métal ou en matière plastique, qui sont utilisées pour ajuster le positionnement d'un panneau, notamment un vitrage, dans le châssis d'un vantail récepteur dudit panneau. Ces cales, communément appelées cales de vitrage, sont positionnées lors du montage du vantail, à l'intérieur des montants du châssis, de manière à ce que les bords du panneau de vitrage viennent reposer sur ou contre ces cales afin de compenser les variations de dimensions des diverses éléments qui constituent le châssis. Afin que ces cales ne bougent pas de leur logement lors de l'installation du panneau, elles peuvent comporter une couche d'adhésif qui permet de les fixer dans leur logement, en surface interne des montants qui forment le châssis. Les cales sont fabriquées avec une couche d'adhésif revêtue d'un film protecteur qui doit être retiré au moment où la cale est utilisée dans son application. Lors de la fabrication de vantaux en un nombre élevé, le fait d'avoir à enlever ce film protecteur pour chaque cale représente une perte de temps importante, le temps passé pour retirer ce film étant parfois supérieur à celui nécessaire à la pose de la cale elle-même. De plus ces films, qui généralement restent au sol pendant tout le temps de la fabrication des vantaux, représentent un risque potentiel pour la sécurité des opérateurs qui pourraient glisser en marchant sur ces films.There are conventionally holds of wood, metal or plastic, which are used to adjust the positioning of a panel, including a glazing, in the frame of a door leaf of said panel. These wedges, commonly called glazing shims, are positioned during the mounting of the leaf, inside the frame uprights, so that the edges of the glazing panel come to rest on or against these wedges to compensate for variations in dimensions of the various elements that make up the chassis. So that these wedges do not move their housing during the installation of the panel, they may include a layer of adhesive that allows to fix them in their housing on the inner surface of the amounts that form the frame. The wedges are made with a layer of adhesive coated with a protective film that must be removed when the wedge is used in its application. During the manufacture of leaves in a large number, the fact of having to remove this protective film for each hold represents a significant loss of time, the time spent to remove this film is sometimes greater than that required for the installation of the hold herself. In addition, these films, which generally remain on the ground during the entire production of the leaves, represent a potential risk for the safety of operators who could slip while walking on these films.

Le document EP 0 287 184 A2 divulgue un vantail selon le préambule de la revendication 1. Les documents DE 10 2008 016835 A1 et DE 200 15 489 U1 divulguent également des vantaux comportant des cales de positionnement. Le document EP 1 036 014 B1 divulgue une cale de positionnement comportant des moyens de fixation comprennent une ventouse.The document EP 0 287 184 A2 discloses a leaf according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ainsi la cale est fixée dans son logement par une simple pression sur la ou les ventouses.For this purpose, the invention proposes a leaf comprising a frame in which is encased a glazing panel whose positioning is adjusted by at least one device for mounting a panel in a leaf frame in the form of a shim. positioning fixed in said frame with at least one suction cup. Thus the wedge is fixed in its housing by a simple pressure on the suction cups.

Plus particulièrement la cale selon l'invention comporte une base et une ou plusieurs pattes flexibles réceptrices de la ou les dites ventouses. La flexibilité de la/les pattes donne la souplesse nécessaire pour pouvoir appuyer sur la ventouse et la fixer au châssis de vantail. La base est la partie utile du dispositif pour caler un panneau, en particulier un panneau de vitrage, lors de son montage dans un châssis de vantail.More particularly, the shim according to the invention comprises a base and one or more flexible tabs receiving the or said suckers. The flexibility of the leg (s) gives the necessary flexibility to be able to press the suction cup and fix it to the leaf frame.

Selon un mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention, la cale comporte une base comprenant un évidement traversant dans lequel se situent deux pattes flexibles réceptrices d'une ventouse, disposées en vis-à-vis de manière à maintenir une ventouse entre les extrémités libres de ces dites pattes.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the shim comprises a base comprising a through recess in which there are two flexible tabs receiving a suction cup, arranged in facing relation so as to maintain a suction cup between the free ends of these said tabs.

Selon un autre mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention, la cale comporte latéralement une ou des ventouses. Dans ce mode particulier, de préférence la ventouse est maintenue par une patte flexible disposée en prolongement latéral de la base de ladite cale, en particulier d'une base en forme de pavé. La ou les pattes peuvent par exemple être en prolongement des extrémités transversales de la base et/ou sur les bords longitudinaux de la base.According to another particular embodiment of the invention, the wedge laterally comprises one or more suction cups. In this particular embodiment, preferably the suction cup is held by a flexible lug disposed in lateral extension of the base of said shim, in particular a pavement-shaped base. The tab or tabs may for example be in extension of the transverse ends of the base and / or on the longitudinal edges of the base.

Le panneau de vitrage peut être un simple vitrage ou composés de plusieurs vitrages, notamment un double vitrage.The glazing panel can be a single glazing or composed of several windows, including double glazing.

L'invention concerne aussi l'utilisation d'une cale comportant des moyens de fixation comprenant au moins une ventouse, comme cale de positionnement d'un panneau monté dans un châssis de vantail et ladite ventouse se fixant au châssis.The invention also relates to the use of a wedge comprising fixing means comprising at least one suction cup, as a positioning wedge of a panel mounted in a leaf frame and said suction cup attaching to the frame.

De préférence dans l'utilisation selon l'invention, ladite cale comporte une base et une ou plusieurs pattes flexibles réceptrices de la ou les dites ventouses.Preferably in the use according to the invention, said wedge comprises a base and one or more flexible tabs receiving the or said suckers.

Tous les composants ne sont pas représentés à la même échelle pour la clarté des figures.Not all components are represented on the same scale for the sake of clarity.

Les figures 1 et 2, 2A représentent des vues d'un dispositif de montage d'un panneau dans un châssis de vantail selon l'invention se présentant sous forme d'une cale de positionnement 10 comportant intérieurement une ventouse 20 permettant de fixer ladite cale dans un profilé P constitutif d'un châssis de vantail, comme illustré aux figures 3 et 4.The Figures 1 and 2, 2A represent views of a mounting device of a panel in a leaf frame according to the invention in the form of a positioning wedge 10 having internally a suction cup 20 for fixing said wedge in a section P constituent of a leaf frame, as illustrated in figures 3 and 4 .

La cale 10 présente une base 100 se présentant sous forme d'un pavé sensiblement parallélépipédique. Ce pavé comporte en sa partie centrale un évidement traversant dans lequel est logée une ventouse 20. La ventouse utilisée pour l'invention est de préférence une ventouse classique avec corolle 200. Cette ventouse 20 est retenue de part et d'autre dans une découpe présente en extrémité de chacune de deux pattes flexibles 301, 302, apparaissant symétriquement disposées en vis-à-vis, en prolongement de la masse du pavé. Il n'y a pas de charnière entre la patte et la masse du pavé. Selon cet exemple les pattes sont des plaques réalisées lors du moulage d'une matière plastique, en même temps qu'est formée la base de la cale. La base de la cale et les pattes forment ainsi une seule pièce. Le fait que ces plaques soient d'épaisseur moindre que celle du pavé et en une matière plastique, conduit à ce que ces plaques aient une flexibilité qui permet d'appuyer sur la ventouse lorsqu'elle est mise en contact avec une surface plane et de créer le vide nécessaire pour qu'elle reste fixée à cette surface.The shim 10 has a base 100 in the form of a substantially parallelepiped block. This block comprises in its central part a through recess in which is housed a suction cup 20. The suction cup used for the invention is preferably a conventional suction cup with corolla 200. This suction cup 20 is retained on both sides in a present cutout end of each of two flexible tabs 301, 302, appearing symmetrically arranged vis-à-vis, in extension of the mass of the block. There is no hinge between the paw and the mass of the pavement. According to this example the tabs are plates made during the molding of a plastic material, at the same time that the base of the wedge is formed. The base of the hold and the legs thus form a single piece. The fact that these plates are of less thickness than that of the block and a plastic material, leads to these plates have a flexibility that allows to press the suction cup when it is brought into contact with a flat surface and create the necessary vacuum so that it remains attached to this surface.

Les cales selon l'invention sont disposées en nombre nécessaire et selon diverses épaisseurs de leur base dans un montant de châssis en cours de réalisation, dans lequel on enchâsse un panneau pour fabriquer un vantail. Plusieurs cales d'épaisseurs différentes sont généralement utilisées pour ajuster la position du panneau dans le châssis. La hauteur et/ou la disposition de la ventouse ainsi que la disposition des pattes, par rapport à la base de la cale, sont choisies de manière à ce qu'elles n'interfèrent pas avec l'épaisseur de la base qui est la valeur de référence pour ajuster le positionnement du panneau lors de son montage.The wedges according to the invention are arranged in a necessary number and according to various thicknesses of their base in a chassis frame in progress, in which one encapsulates a panel to manufacture a leaf. Several shims of different thicknesses are generally used to adjust the position of the panel in the frame. The height and / or arrangement of the suction cup and the arrangement of the tabs, relative to the base of the hold, are chosen so that they do not interfere with the thickness of the base which is the value reference to adjust the positioning of the panel during its assembly.

Le montant selon cet exemple illustré en figure 4 se présente sous forme d'un profilé P, qui forme le montant inférieur du châssis. Pour bien positionner le panneau qui selon cet exemple se présente sous forme d'un double vitrage composé d'un premier vitrage V1 et d'un second vitrage V2 espacés par un joint E, on dispose à titre illustratif une ou deux cale(s) 10 sur la surface interne plane P1 du profilé P aux endroits adéquats permettant de compenser les variations de dimensions, le bord inférieur des vitrages V1, V2 venant reposer sur la face supérieure de la/des cales.The amount according to this example illustrated in figure 4 is in the form of a profile P, which forms the lower amount of the frame. To position the panel which according to this example is in the form of a double glazing composed of a first glazing V1 and a second glazing V2 spaced apart by a joint E, there is provided as an illustration one or two shim (s) 10 on the flat inner surface P1 of the P profile at appropriate locations to compensate for variations in size, the lower edge of the glazing V1, V2 coming to rest on the upper face of the / wedges.

La cale de positionnement peut être d'une largeur légèrement supérieure à celle de la paroi du profilé qui la loge, de manière à pouvoir terminer l'enchâssement du panneau par une parclose latérale C comme illustré en figure 4.The positioning wedge may be of a width slightly greater than that of the wall of the profile which houses it, so as to be able to complete the entrenchment of the panel by a lateral bead C as illustrated in FIG. figure 4 .

La cale 10, telle qu'illustrée à titre d'exemple non limitatif de l'invention, comporte transversalement des stries en relief 101, apparaissant régulièrement en surface supérieur du pavé, qui résultent du moulage. Les creux entre ces stries ont pour but principal d'alléger le poids de la cale. La cale peut comporter une ou plusieurs lignes de stries 102 disposées longitudinalement, apparaissant entre les stries transversales 101, pour conférer un certain renfort à la surface de la cale et notamment renforcer les bords de l'évidement dans lequel se positionne la ventouse.The shim 10, as illustrated by way of non-limiting example of the invention, comprises transversely raised ridges 101, appearing regularly on the upper surface of the block, which result from the molding. The hollows between these streaks are mainly intended to lighten the weight of the hold. The wedge may comprise one or more lines of grooves 102 disposed longitudinally, appearing between the transverse ridges 101, to give some reinforcement to the surface of the wedge and in particular to strengthen the edges of the recess in which the suction cup is positioned.

La cale 10, telle qu'illustrée à titre d'exemple non limitatif, comporte en outre des emplacements 40 et 50 sur lesquels peuvent être inscrites des informations, notamment l'épaisseur de la base de la cale, dans une hauteur respectant l'épaisseur de la base de la cale.The shim 10, as shown by way of non-limiting example, further comprises locations 40 and 50 on which be entered information, including the thickness of the base of the hold, in a height respecting the thickness of the base of the hold.

La figure 5 illustre un dispositif de montage d'un panneau dans un châssis de vantail selon l'invention se présentant sous forme d'une cale comprenant latéralement des ventouses selon l'invention, vue de trois-quarts. Selon cet exemple, la cale 11 comprend une base 110 ayant la forme d'un pavé sensiblement parallélépipédique et des pattes flexibles 311, 312 en prolongement des extrémités transversales de ladite base 110. La base 110 et les deux pattes 311, 312 forment une seule pièce. Une ventouse 211, 212 respectivement en chaque extrémité de la cale est retenue dans une échancrure semi-ouverte selon cet exemple, présente en bout de patte 311, 312 respective de chaque extrémité de la cale. Cette configuration permet soit de fixer la ventouse sur une surface perpendiculaire à la base de la cale en relevant la patte qui retient ladite ventouse soit de fixer la ventouse à une surface dans le même plan que la base en appuyant simplement sur la ventouse retenue dans la patte allongée dans le prolongement de la base. La cale étant munie de deux ventouses selon cet exemple, on peut avantageusement mixer la fixation de la cale, en la fixant d'un côté dans le plan de la base de la cale et de l'autre côté dans un plan perpendiculaire à celui de la base de la cale.The figure 5 illustrates a device for mounting a panel in a leaf frame according to the invention in the form of a wedge laterally comprising suction cups according to the invention, seen from three quarters. According to this example, the shim 11 comprises a base 110 having the shape of a substantially parallelepipedal block and flexible tabs 311, 312 extending from the transverse ends of said base 110. The base 110 and the two lugs 311, 312 form a single room. A suction cup 211, 212 respectively at each end of the shim is retained in a semi-open notch according to this example, present at the end of leg 311, 312 respectively of each end of the shim. This configuration makes it possible either to fix the suction cup on a surface perpendicular to the base of the hold by raising the tab which holds said suction cup or to fix the suction cup to a surface in the same plane as the base by simply pressing the suction pad retained in the leg extended in the extension of the base. The wedge being provided with two suckers according to this example, it is advantageous to mix the attachment of the wedge, fixing it on one side in the plane of the base of the hold and the other side in a plane perpendicular to that of the base of the hold.

Les figures 6 et 7 illustrent des cales de positionnement selon l'invention comprenant latéralement respectivement deux ou une ventouse(s), en vues de trois-quarts.The Figures 6 and 7 illustrate positioning wedges according to the invention comprising laterally respectively two or a sucker (s), in three-quarter views.

Selon l'exemple représenté en figure 6, la cale 12 comprend une base 120 ayant la forme d'un pavé sensiblement parallélépipédique et des pattes flexibles 321, 322, selon cet exemple au nombre de deux, disposées espacées l'une de l'autre et en prolongement d'un même bord longitudinal de ladite base 120. La base et les pattes forment une seule pièce. Une des pattes 321 comporte une découpe dans laquelle s'insère la tête d'une ventouse 221, ladite patte comportant deux branches 3210, 3211 directement en prolongement du pavé de base 120 de la cale qui sont flexibles et permettent d'orienter ladite patte avec la ventouse dans un plan sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan de la base 120. De même l'autre patte 322 retient une ventouse 222 dans une découpe, et grâce à ses deux branches flexibles 3220, 3221 directement en prolongement du pavé de base 120 de la cale, ladite patte avec la ventouse est orientée dans un plan sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan de la base 120.According to the example shown in figure 6 , the wedge 12 comprises a base 120 having the shape of a substantially parallelepipedal block and flexible tabs 321, 322, according to this example, two in number, arranged spaced from one another and in extension of the same edge longitudinal of said base 120. The base and the legs form a single piece. One of the tabs 321 has a cutout in which the head of a suction pad 221 is inserted, said tab comprising two branches 3210, 3211 directly in extension of the base block 120 of the hold which are flexible and allow to orient said tab with the suction cup in a plane substantially perpendicular to the plane of the base 120. Similarly the other tab 322 holds a suction cup 222 in a cutout, and thanks to its two flexible branches 3220, 3221 directly in extension of the base block 120 of the wedge, said tab with the suction cup is oriented in a plane substantially perpendicular to the plane of the base 120.

Selon l'exemple représenté en figure 7, la cale 13 comprend une seule ventouse latérale. La cale 13 comporte une base 130 ayant la forme d'un pavé sensiblement parallélépipédique et une patte flexible 320 en prolongement d'un bord longitudinal de ladite base 130. La base et la patte forment une seule pièce.According to the example shown in figure 7 , the wedge 13 includes a single lateral suction cup. The shim 13 comprises a base 130 having the shape of a substantially parallelepipedal pad and a flexible tab 320 extending from a longitudinal edge of said base 130. The base and the tab form a single piece.

Comme pour la cale représentée en figure 6, la patte 320 comprend une échancrure dans laquelle s'insère la tête de la ventouse 230, et deux branches flexibles 3200, 3201 directement en prolongement du pavé de base 130 de la cale permettant d'orienter ladite patte avec la ventouse dans un plan sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan de la base 130.As for the hold represented in figure 6 , the tab 320 comprises a notch into which the head of the suction cup 230 is inserted, and two flexible branches 3200, 3201 directly in extension of the base block 130 of the wedge for orienting said tab with the suction cup in a plane substantially perpendicular to the plane of the base 130.

Les cales telles que représentées aux figures 6 et 7 peuvent être fixées par ventouse latéralement et dans un plan perpendiculaire au plan de la base de la cale comme illustré en figure 8. Cette configuration peut être avantageuse par exemple lorsqu'on ne dispose pas d'une surface plane dans le fond d'un profilé, on utilise alors un autre plan de surface.The holds as represented Figures 6 and 7 may be attached by suction cup laterally and in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the base of the hold as shown in figure 8 . This configuration may be advantageous for example when there is not a flat surface in the bottom of a profile, then uses another surface plane.

La figure 8 illustre en coupe le montage d'un vantail avec la cale de la figure 7. Un profilé P' forme le montant inférieur du châssis d'un vantail. Le panneau qui selon cet exemple se présente sous forme d'un double vitrage composé d'un premier vitrage V1' et d'un second vitrage V2' espacés par un joint E', a été monté en fixant la cale 13 de la figure 7 par pression de la ventouse latérale 230 retenue dans la patte flexible 203 contre une surface interne plane du profilé P' qui est perpendiculaire au plan du fond du profilé. La base 130 de la cale est logée dans le fond du profilé de manière à ce que le bord inférieur respectif des vitrages V1', V2' repose sur la face supérieure de la base de la cale et à compenser le jeu dans le fond du profilé.The figure 8 illustrates in section the assembly of a leaf with the wedge of the figure 7 . A profile P 'forms the lower amount of the frame of a leaf. The panel which according to this example is in the form of a double glazing composed of a first glazing V1 'and a second glazing V2' spaced apart by a joint E ', has been mounted by fixing the shim 13 of the figure 7 by pressing the lateral suction cup 230 retained in the flexible tab 203 against a flat inner surface of the profile P 'which is perpendicular to the plane of the bottom of the profile. The base 130 of the shim is housed in the bottom of the profile so that the respective lower edge of the glazings V1 ', V2' rests on the upper face of the base of the hold and compensate the play in the bottom of the profile.

De manière générale, les cales de positionnement selon l'invention sont réalisées par moulage d'une matière plastique, comme par exemple une matière à base de polypropylène ou d'ABS, permettant de former en une seule pièce la base et la ou les pattes réceptrices de ventouse, les pattes étant d'une épaisseur moindre que la base de la cale de manière à leur donner une flexibilité nécessaire pour appuyer sur la ventouse de fixation. Une ventouse classique à corolle par exemple en silicone est insérée dans la partie réceptrice de la patte.In general, the positioning shims according to the invention are made by molding a plastic material, such as for example a material based on polypropylene or ABS, making it possible to form in one piece the base and the at least one leg. suction pads, the legs being of less thickness than the base of the wedge so as to give them the necessary flexibility to press the suction cup attachment. A conventional sucker with corolla eg silicone is inserted into the receiving part of the leg.

La description qui précède explique clairement comment l'invention permet d'atteindre les objectifs qu'elle s'est fixés. Les cales de positionnement d'un panneau dans un châssis de vantail selon l'invention se présentant sous forme de cales à fixation par ventouse se fixent aisément par pression dans un châssis de vantail sans nécessiter de manipulations annexes au moment de leur fixation. De plus ces cales peuvent être déplacées et repositionnées aisément par un opérateur pour ajuster au mieux le positionnement du panneau lors de son montage dans le châssis. Le dispositif selon l'invention peut être logé dans tout montant du châssis de vantail, que ce soit un montant inférieur, supérieur ou latéral.The foregoing description clearly explains how the invention achieves the goals it has set for itself. The shims for positioning a panel in a leaf frame according to the invention in the form of wedges by suction mounting are easily fixed by pressure in a leaf frame without requiring additional manipulations at the time of their attachment. In addition, these shims can be easily moved and repositioned by an operator to better adjust the positioning of the panel when mounted in the frame. The device according to the invention can be housed in any amount of the leaf frame, whether it is a lower, upper or lateral amount.

Il ressort néanmoins de ce qui précède que l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de mise en oeuvre qui ont été spécifiquement décrits et représentés sur les figures et qu'elle s'étend au contraire à toute variante étant couverte par les revendications. Le dispositif de montage d'un panneau dans un châssis de vantail selon l'invention se présentant sous forme d'une cale à fixation par ventouse peut comporter plusieurs ventouses, certaines pouvant être disposées latéralement et d'autres intérieurement par exemple, selon les besoins et la configuration du châssis de vantail.Nevertheless, it follows from the foregoing that the invention is not limited to the embodiments which have been specifically described and shown in the figures and that it extends to the contrary to any variant being covered by the claims. The device for mounting a panel in a leaf frame according to the invention in the form of a wedge with a suction cup may comprise a plurality of suction cups, some of which may be arranged laterally and others internally, for example, depending on the needs. and the configuration of the leaf frame.
