Description

La présente invention a trait à une lame de tablier de système de fermeture d'une ouverture d'une construction.The present invention relates to an apron blade of a closing system of an opening of a construction.

Cette invention concerne le domaine du bâtiment et, plus particulièrement, celui de la fabrication des systèmes de fermetures, qui sont conçus pour fermer une ouverture que comporte une construction, et qui adoptent notamment la forme d'un volet roulant ou analogue.This invention relates to the field of the building and, more particularly, that of the manufacture of closures systems, which are designed to close an opening that includes a construction, and which adopt in particular the form of a shutter or the like.

L'on connait, d'ores et déjà et notamment par le document FR-2.916.010 , de tels systèmes de fermeture qui comportent un tablier résultant de l'association d'une pluralité de lames de tablier dont au moins certaines comportent, d'une part, une partie fixe de lame et, d'autre part, une partie mobile de lame montée en pivotement par rapport à la partie fixe de lame, ceci entre une position escamotée et une position déployée. Une telle lame est interposée entre, d'une part, une autre lame suivante suitée en-dessous de ladite lame en position dépliée du tablier et, d'autre part, une autre lame précédente située au-dessus de ladite lame en position dépliée du tablier. Cette lame comporte, encore, des moyens de raccordement pour raccorder cette lame à ladite autre lame suivante ainsi qu'à ladite autre lame précédente. En fait, de tels moyens de raccordement sont constitués par un maillon, équipant latéralement la partie fixe de lame, et coopérant avec le maillon de l'autre lame suivante ainsi qu'avec le maillon de l'autre lame précédente. Ces maillons sont conçus pour être mobiles en translation l'un par rapport à l'autre de manière à permettre une mobilité en translation de la lame par rapport à l'autre lame suivante ainsi que par rapport à l'autre lame précédente.We already know, and in particular by the document FR-2916010 such closure systems which comprise an apron resulting from the combination of a plurality of apron blades, at least some of which comprise, on the one hand, a fixed blade part and, on the other hand, a movable part of blade pivotally mounted relative to the fixed blade portion, this between a retracted position and an extended position. Such a blade is interposed between, on the one hand, another following blade followed below said blade in the unfolded position of the deck and, on the other hand, another previous blade located above said blade in the unfolded position of the apron. This blade further comprises connection means for connecting this blade to said next next blade as well as to said other previous blade. In fact, such connecting means are constituted by a link, laterally equipping the fixed portion of the blade, and cooperating with the link of the next other blade and with the link of the other previous blade. These links are designed to be movable in translation relative to each other so as to allow mobility in translation of the blade with respect to the next other blade and with respect to the other previous blade.

Cette lame comporte, également, des moyens de commande pour commander le pivotement de la partie mobile de lame par rapport à la partie fixe de lame, ceci sous l'impulsion d'une autre lame suivante ou d'une autre lame précédente, plus particulièrement sous l'impulsion du déplacement en translation de cette autre lame suivante ou de cette autre lame précédente par rapport à la lame ou de cette lame par rapport à cette autre lame suivante ou à cette autre lame précédente. De tels moyens de commande comportent une biellette raccordant, d'une part, la partie mobile de lame et, d'autre part, le maillon de l'autre lame suivante. Le déplacement de cette lame par rapport à cette autre lame suivante ou de cette autre lame suivante par rapport à cette lame provoque un déplacement de la biellette qui entraîne le pivotement de la partie mobile de lame.This blade also comprises control means for controlling the pivoting of the movable blade part with respect to the fixed blade part, this under the impetus of another following blade or of another previous blade, more particularly under the impulse of the displacement in translation of this other next blade or the other previous blade relative to the blade or blade relative to the next other blade or to this other previous blade. Such control means comprise a link connecting, on the one hand, the movable blade part and, on the other hand, the link of the next other blade. The displacement of this blade relative to this next next blade or this next blade with respect to this blade causes a displacement of the rod which causes the pivoting of the movable blade portion.

On observera qu'un tel système de fermeture comporte, alors, une pluralité de maillons agencés sous la forme d'une chaîne latérale qui se déplace à l'intérieur d'une coulisse latérale de guidage. Un tel système de fermeture nécessite, par conséquent, l'étude, la fabrication et la mise en place d'une telle chaîne ce qui complexifie et renchérit la fabrication d'un tel système de fermeture.It will be observed that such a closure system then comprises a plurality of links arranged in the form of a side chain which moves inside a lateral guide slide. Such a closure system therefore requires the study, manufacture and installation of such a chain which complicates and increases the manufacture of such a closure system.

De plus, sous l'effet du vieillissement, de l'usure, de l'encrassement ou d'éventuelles dégradations, la mobilité entre les maillons d'une telle chaîne se réduit ce qui est préjudiciable à une commande appropriée du pivotement de la partie mobile de lame. Ceci peut entraîner, soit une difficulté pour déployer la partie mobile de lame et ainsi autoriser le passage de la lumière au travers du tablier, soit une difficulté pour escamoter cette partie mobile de lame ce qui a pour effet d'entraver un repliement approprié du tablier à l'intérieur d'un caisson ou d'un coffre, avec un risque de dégradation du tablier ou du système de fermeture tout entier.In addition, under the effect of aging, wear, fouling or possible damage, the mobility between the links of such a chain is reduced which is detrimental to an appropriate control of the pivoting part mobile blade. This can cause either a difficulty to deploy the movable blade portion and thus allow the passage of light through the apron, or a difficulty to retract this movable blade portion which has the effect of hinder an appropriate folding of the apron inside a box or box, with a risk of degradation of the apron or the entire closure system.

En outre, un tel système comporte des biellettes qui présentent de nombreux inconvénients. En particulier, une telle biellette est soumise à l'usure, au vieillissement, aux intempéries, à l'encrassement et aux éventuelles dégradations qui réduisent sa durée de vie. De plus, cette biellette est le seul organe à être soumis aux contraintes, exercées par un maillon, et destinées à provoquer le pivotement de la partie mobile de lame de sorte qu'une telle biellette est particulièrement sollicitée ce qui, là encore, réduit sa durée de vie. En outre, une telle biellette raccorde une partie mobile de lame à un maillon associé à une autre lame suivante ce qui complexifie la mise en place d'une telle biellette et, par conséquent, la fabrication du système de fermeture.In addition, such a system comprises rods which have many disadvantages. In particular, such a rod is subject to wear, aging, weather, fouling and possible damage that reduce its life. In addition, this rod is the only member to be subjected to stresses, exerted by a link, and intended to cause pivoting of the movable blade portion so that such rod is particularly stressed which, again, reduces its duration of life. In addition, such a connecting rod connects a movable blade portion to a link associated with another subsequent blade which complicates the establishment of such a rod and, therefore, the manufacture of the closure system.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, c'est la portion inférieure 10 de la genouillère 8 qui comporte un tel arbre 141. En fait, un tel arbre 141 peut être défini par deux tronçons d'arbre équipant, chacun, un des côtés d'un bord d'articulation 142 que comporte cette portion inférieure 10. Cependant et selon une alternative, un tel arbre 141 peut adopter la forme d'une tige ou analogue et coopérer avec un bord d'articulation (plus particulièrement avec un orifice traversant que comporte un tel bord d'articulation et au travers duquel est engagé une telle tige), que comporte cette portion inférieure 10 de la genouillère 8, et que comportent les moyens d'articulation 14.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is the lower portion 10 of the toggle member 8 which comprises such a shaft 141. In fact, such a shaft 141 can be defined by two shaft sections equipping each with a the sides of a hinge edge 142 which this lower portion 10 comprises. However, and according to an alternative, such a shaft 141 may take the form of a rod or the like and cooperate with a hinge edge (more particularly with a through orifice that includes such a hinge edge and through which is engaged such a rod), that includes the lower portion 10 of the toggle joint 8, and that comprise the hinge means 14.

Une autre caractéristique de la présente invention consiste en ce que la lame 2 comporte au moins un embout 15 au moins en partie constitué par la portion supérieure 9 de la genouillère 8, voire encore par la portion inférieure 10 de cette genouillère 8.Another feature of the present invention consists in that the blade 2 comprises at least one end piece 15 at least partly constituted by the upper portion 9 of the toggle joint 8, or even by the lower portion 10 of this toggle joint 8.

Tel que visible sur les figures 1 et 2, un tel embout 15 équipe latéralement la partie mobile 4 de lame 2, plus particulièrement l'extrémité latérale de cette partie mobile 4 de lame 2. Un tel embout 15 est, alors, implanté au moins à proximité de l'extrémité latérale de la lame 2 et, donc, du tablier 1.As visible on the figures 1 and 2 , such a tip 15 equips laterally the movable portion 4 of blade 2, more particularly the lateral end of this movable portion 4 blade 2. Such a tip 15 is then implanted at least near the lateral end of the blade. blade 2 and, therefore, of the apron 1.

Cependant et tel que visible sur les figures 3 et 4, un tel embout 15 peut, également, être interposé entre deux tronçons (4a, 4b) que comporte la partie mobile 4 de lame 2. Cet embout 14 équipe, alors simultanément, ces deux tronçons (4a ; 4b) de cette partie mobile 4 de lame 2.However and as visible on the Figures 3 and 4 , such a tip 15 may also be interposed between two sections (4a, 4b) that comprises the movable portion 4 blade 2. This tip 14 team, then simultaneously, these two sections (4a; 4b) of this movable part 4 of blade 2.

Une autre caractéristique de la lame 2 consiste en ce que la genouillère 8 comporte, d'une part, des moyens d'accrochage 16 que comporte la portion supérieure 9 de cette genouillère 8 et, d'autre part, des moyens d'accrochage complémentaires 16', que comporte la portion inférieure 10 de la genouillère 8, et qui coopèrent avec les moyens d'accrochage 16, ceci en position escamotée de la partie mobile 4 de lame 2. La coopération entre ces moyens d'accrochage 16 et ces moyens d'accrochage complémentaires 16' permet, avantageusement, de reprendre en partie les efforts de traction (plus particulièrement exercés lors du repliement du tablier 1) qui ne sont, de ce fait, pas uniquement supportés par les moyens d'articulation 14.Another characteristic of the blade 2 consists in that the toggle joint 8 comprises, on the one hand, hooking means 16 which comprises the upper portion 9 of this toggle joint 8 and, on the other hand, complementary fastening means 16 ', which comprises the lower portion 10 of the toggle joint 8, and which cooperate with the attachment means 16, this in the retracted position of the movable portion 4 of blade 2. The cooperation between these attachment means 16 and these means complementary coupling 16 'advantageously makes it possible to partially recover the traction forces (more particularly exerted during the folding of the deck 1) which are not, therefore, only supported by the hinge means 14.

Un mode préféré de réalisation consiste en ce que, d'une part, la portion supérieure 9 de la genouillère 8 comporte un doigt 18 qui définit les moyens d'accrochage 16 et, d'autre part, la portion inférieure 10 de cette genouillère 8 comporte un logement 19, qui définit les moyens d'accrochage complémentaires 16', et à l'intérieur duquel s'engage le doigt 18 de la portion supérieure 9, ceci en position escamotée de la partie mobile 4 de lame 2.A preferred embodiment consists in that, on the one hand, the upper portion 9 of the toggle joint 8 comprises a finger 18 which defines the attachment means 16 and, on the other hand, the lower portion 10 of this toggle joint 8 comprises a housing 19, which defines the complementary attachment means 16 ', and within which engages the finger 18 of the upper portion 9, this in the retracted position of the movable portion 4 of the blade 2.

Encore une autre caractéristique consiste en ce que la genouillère 8 comporte, d'une part, une surface d'appui 17, que comporte la portion supérieure 9 de la genouillère 8 (plus particulièrement que comporte un bord, que présente cette portion supérieure 9, et qui est orienté en direction de la portion inférieure 10 de la genouillère 8) et, d'autre part, une surface d'appui complémentaire 17', que comporte la portion inférieure 10 de la genouillère 8 (plus particulièrement que comporte un bord, notamment le bord d'articulation 142, que présente cette portion inférieure 10, et qui est orienté en direction de la portion supérieure 9 de la genouillère 8), et qui coopère avec la surface d'appui 17, ceci essentiellement en position déployée de la partie mobile 4 de lame 2, voire encore en position escamotée ainsi qu'entre ces positions escamotée et déployée. La coopération entre cette surface d'appui 17 et cette surface d'appui complémentaire 17' permet, avantageusement, de reprendre en partie les efforts de compression (plus particulièrement exercés lors du dépliement du tablier 1, voire lors de la commande en pivotement de la partie mobile 4 de lame 2) qui ne sont, de ce fait, pas uniquement supportés par les moyens d'articulation 14.Yet another characteristic consists in that the toggle joint 8 comprises, on the one hand, a bearing surface 17, which comprises the upper portion 9 of the toggle joint 8 (more particularly than an edge, that this upper portion 9 has, and which is oriented toward the lower portion of the toggle joint 8) and, on the other hand, a complementary bearing surface 17 ', which the bottom portion 10 of the toggle joint 8 (more particularly than an edge) has, in particular the hinge edge 142, which this lower portion 10 presents, and which is oriented in the direction of the upper portion 9 of the toggle joint 8), and which cooperates with the bearing surface 17, this essentially in the deployed position of the movable portion 4 blade 2, or even in the retracted position and between these positions retracted and deployed. The cooperation between this bearing surface 17 and this complementary support surface 17 'advantageously makes it possible to partially recover the compression forces (more particularly exerted during the unfolding of the deck 1, or even during the pivotal control of the moving part 4 blade 2) which are not, therefore, not only supported by the hinge means 14.

En ce qui concerne, plus particulièrement, la portion supérieure 9 de la genouillère 8, celle-ci 9 comporte, d'une part, une embase 90, comportant les moyens d'accrochage que comportent les moyens supérieurs de pivotement 12 de cette portion supérieure 9 par rapport à la partie fixe 3 de lame 2 ainsi que la chape 140 que comportent les moyens d'articulation 14 de la portion inférieure 10 de cette genouillère 8 par rapport à cette portion supérieure 9.As regards, more particularly, the upper portion 9 of the toggle member 8, the latter 9 comprises, on the one hand, a base 90, comprising the attachment means that comprise the upper pivoting means 12 of this upper portion. 9 with respect to the fixed portion 3 of the blade 2 as well as the yoke 140 that comprise the hinge means 14 of the lower portion 10 of this toggle member 8 with respect to this upper portion 9.

D'autre part, cette portion supérieure 9 de la genouillère 8 comporte une platine 91 s'étendant latéralement et perpendiculairement à partir de l'embase 90. C'est, plus particulièrement, cette platine 91 qui comporte les moyens d'accrochage 16 et/ou la surface d'appui 17 mentionnés ci-dessus.On the other hand, this upper portion 9 of the toggle joint 8 comprises a plate 91 extending laterally and perpendicularly from the base 90. It is, more particularly, this plate 91 which comprises the attachment means 16 and / or the bearing surface 17 mentioned above.

D'autre part encore, cette portion supérieure 9 de la genouillère 8 comporte les moyens d'emboîtement 110 que comportent les moyens de solidarisation en déplacement 11 de la partie mobile 4 de lame 2 et de cette portion supérieure 9. Ces moyens d'emboîtement 110 s'étendant latéralement et perpendiculairement à partir de ladite platine 91, ceci dans une direction opposée à l'embase 90.On the other hand, this upper portion 9 of the toggle joint 8 comprises the interlocking means 110 that comprise the moving fastening means 11 of the movable portion 4 of the blade 2 and of this upper portion 9. These interlocking means 110 extending laterally and perpendicularly from said plate 91, this in a direction opposite to the base 90.

Tel que visible sur les figures 1 et 2, l'embase 90 et/ou les moyens d'accrochage 17 et/ou la surface d'appui 16 s'étendent à partir d'un côté de la platine 91 tandis que les moyens d'emboîtement 110 s'étendent à partir de l'autre côté de la platine 91, ceci dans une direction opposée.As visible on the figures 1 and 2 , the base 90 and / or the attachment means 17 and / or the bearing surface 16 extend from one side of the plate 91 while the interlocking means 110 extend from the other side of the plate 91, this in an opposite direction.
