Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for remotely controlling bay shutter devices such as windows or doors, the devices concerned typically being shutters, opening or swinging, shutters, mobile systems for solar protection openings such as Venetian blinds etc... when they are motorized.
  • the technical field to which the invention relates therefore primarily concerns domestic or tertiary equipment in the home, and it is more particularly applied to the automated control of the drive means of the shutter devices which equip windows and doors.
  • a remote control device comprising a housing provided with manually operated control means and means for processing the state of these control means, device which is such that said control means comprise a single control member for the automated opening and closing of the bay closing device controllable relative to the housing according to a stroke extending between two extreme positions respectively controlling the opening and the complete closure of the shutter device.
  • the remote control device comprises a stage for coding the position of or on the control member defining a setpoint at the input of the processing means, said processing means being capable of generating for each setpoint a control signal for a single positioning of the shutter device relative to the two opening and closing positions.
  • the processing means comprise means for converting the instruction from the control member into a signal for controlling the positioning of the shutter device which obeys a curve whose slope decreases in the vicinity extreme positions of the control member.
  • the control device of the invention includes configurations in which the control member is movable relative to the housing in a linear or rotary stroke, and may include a tactile zone. It can also be fitted with a button to stop the movement of the shutter device. Such a system is easily manipulated, the existence of a control member whose movement is reversible also making it particularly user-friendly and pleasant to use.
  • a control button for moving for example a shutter
  • a first pulse can signify the start of movement of the controlled element
  • a second pulse then causing the movement to stop.
  • the movement can be continued as long as the button is pressed, and stopped when the user releases their effort.
  • Other combinations of button action sequences may lead to alternative modes of operation, at the discretion of the remote control designer.
  • the user communicates to the system in a single instantaneous operation an instruction which will then be managed by the processing means, the mechanical means (or the user's finger in the case of a touch zone) allowing a variation in the position of (or on) the control member, position then transformed into an electronic quantity capable of being processed by an electronic processing module.
  • the latter is for example based on a microcontroller whose inputs/outputs are respectively connected to the coding stage and to a stage allowing them to be sent to shutter drive means.
  • the coding stage consists of an incremental encoder or a potentiometer with a high ohmic value followed by an analog/digital converter stage.
  • the potentiometer has a high resistive value for obvious reasons of energy saving, the remote control device not being autonomous in this respect, and generally dependent on a battery or at least one cell.
  • the processing means may include means for converting the setpoint into a signal for controlling the positioning of the shutter device which obeys a linear curve of constant slope in a central portion.
  • the distance traveled by the shutter device after command is homothetic to the fraction of travel of the control member which is carried out on the control device of the invention.
  • the processing means comprise means for converting the instruction from the control member into a signal for controlling the positioning of the shutter device which obeys a curve whose slope decreases in the vicinity of the extreme positions of the control body.
  • the idea is, for the purpose of precision, to produce a control, for example non-linear, according to which the control stroke is important to manage a reduced movement of the shutter, at its limits, for example between its closed position and its open position. In the central part of the movement of the shutter, the management of the movement of the control can be coarser, no fineness of control being required.
  • the processing means may include means for converting the setpoint into a control signal for the positioning of the shutter device which obeys a variable curve from the extreme position of or on the control member corresponding to the closing of the shutter device and for a fraction at least equal to 50% of its stroke corresponding to a movement of the shutter device in the vicinity of this closed position, the processing means generating a complete opening signal of the shutter device when the setpoint corresponds to a position of or on the control member located beyond said fraction.
  • the processing means are capable of generating a speed signal addressed to drive means of the shutter device.
  • this possibility is used to modulate the speed of movement of the shutter, typically between two values respectively nominal and reduced, the first being provided when the control speed is considered normal while the second is used if the control is operated slowly.
  • the processing means are connected to a transmitter, allowing remote control type operation making the control device nomadic.
  • the control member is connected to a display device symbolizing the fraction of travel traveled by the shutter device corresponding to the position of or on the control member, and giving feedback to the user a visual indication of the command that is supposed to be implemented by the system.
  • the display device can consist of a window made in the housing, the control member is for example connected to a plate driven facing the window and of which a surface visible through said window includes a representation graphic reflecting the position of the shutter device.
  • the graphic representation can consist of a progressive gradient of a color or of a graphic symbolization of the shutter device in relation to the bay.
  • the remote control device of the invention can comprise a first shell connected with a degree of freedom to a second shell to which is secured an electronic card equipped with a potentiometer including a movable cursor equips the first shell, a cover housed in an interior opening of the first shell being connected to the electronic card and capable of transmitting an action exerted on said cover towards a switch of the electronic card.
  • the arrangement of the cover in the interior opening of the first shell gives it a mechanical function by allowing it to take up the forces exerted on said first shell. It also acts as a stop button placed in the center of the control member for the position of the shutter member, in this case the first shell.
  • the cover may include a window placed facing a surface of the first shell provided with a graphic representation reflecting the position of the shutter device.
  • the method codes the position of or on the control member (if it is a touch zone), a subsequent processing essentially assigning to the shutter a homothetic positioning of that taken by or on said member on the housing.
  • control speed which was reported previously is measured, a speed which then reflects that of the movement of the shutter.
  • the idea is to make the system adaptive to the user's operating mode, the gentle and slow action being accompanied by a much less noisy movement of the shutter, due to the low speed of the motor means.
  • control member (1) slides in a slide (2) made in one face of the housing (3).
  • the operation is such that the position given by the user to the control member (1) is coded by coding means, which in fact define a setpoint at the input of electronic processing means.
  • the latter generate a control signal for a positioning of the shutter device which is unique in relation to the two opening and closing positions, the processing function being bijective, associating with the setpoint values positioning values of the shutter which can be follow a linear function, in a central portion and specific variation at at least one end etc..
  • the operation is identical with a rotary configuration: the control button (10) can rotate according to the arrow F between two extreme positions indicated by the marks (12, 12') in the front face shown of the housing (13).
  • a stop button (14) appears in the lower left corner of the housing (13). The other lower corner is occupied by a window (15) showing a symbolic representation of the position of the shutter(s) controlled in relation to a bay, a position which corresponds bijectively to the instruction deriving from the position of the button (10).
