Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine de la construction, et concerne plus particulièrement un ensemble pour une fenêtre, une porte-fenêtre ou un volet comprenant un ouvrant coulissant dans un dormant.The present invention relates to the field of construction, and more particularly relates to an assembly for a window, a French window or a shutter comprising a sliding leaf in a frame.

On connaît un ensemble comportant :

  • un ouvrant comprenant une traverse supérieure et une traverse inférieure,
  • un dormant comprenant :
    • un rail de guidage supérieur comprenant une nervure de guidage destinée à être reçue au moins en partie par emboîtement dans la traverse supérieure,
    • un rail de guidage inférieur, ledit rail de guidage inférieur comprenant un chemin de roulement.
There is known a set comprising:
  • an opening comprising an upper cross member and a lower cross member,
  • a frame comprising
    • an upper guide rail comprising a guide rib intended to be received at least partly by interlocking in the upper rail,
    • a lower guide rail, said lower guide rail comprising a raceway.

Pour assurer une bonne étanchéité, on prévoit généralement des joints compressibles portés par l'un de la traverse supérieure ou du rail de guidage supérieur et par l'un de la traverse inférieure ou du rail de guidage inférieur. Ces joints sont destinés à être compressés entre l'ouvrant et le dormant par un déplacement de l'ouvrant transversalement à sa direction de coulissement. Un tel ouvrant est parfois appelé « coulissant à déboîtement ».In order to ensure a good seal, compressible seals carried by one of the upper cross member or the upper guide rail and one of the lower cross member or the lower guide rail are generally provided. These seals are intended to be compressed between the opening and the frame by a movement of the opening transversely to its direction of sliding. Such an opening is sometimes called "sliding dislocation".

Pour assurer le coulissement de l'ouvrant mais également son déplacement transversalement à sa direction de coulissement, on connaît diverses solutions de quincaillerie. Ces quincailleries sont cependant hélas très compliquées (en raison du mouvement complexe à effectuer) et donc très chères. Elles rendent en outre difficile le démontage de l'ouvrant lors d'une maintenance.To ensure the sliding of the opening but also its displacement transversely to its direction of sliding, various hardware solutions are known. These hardware stores are unfortunately very complicated (because of the complex movement to perform) and therefore very expensive. They also make it difficult to dismantle the opening during maintenance.

Par ailleurs, les quincailleries existantes présentent l'inconvénient d'être souvent encombrantes : elles sont alors soit au moins en partie visibles, ce qui est inesthétique, soit contenues dans les traverses supérieure et inférieure, ce qui oblige à recourir à des traverses supérieure et inférieure de largeurs élevées (prises perpendiculairement à leur direction d'allongement), typiquement supérieures à 75 mm. Des traverses supérieure et inférieure de largeurs plus élevées augmentent naturellement les coûts de production du cadre de l'ouvrant. Cela augmente aussi l'impact visuel du cadre de l'ouvrant, ce qui n'est pas opportun à l'heure où les consommateurs préfèrent des solutions « légères » avec un cadre d'ouvrant le plus fin possible.Moreover, the existing hardware have the disadvantage of being often cumbersome: they are then either at least partly visible, which is unsightly, or contained in the upper and lower rails, which requires the use of upper rails and lower of high widths (taken perpendicular to their direction of elongation), typically greater than 75 mm. Upper and lower sleepers of higher widths naturally increase the production costs of the sash frame. It also increases the visual impact of the frame of the door, which is not appropriate at a time when consumers prefer "light" solutions with a frame opening the finest possible.

Enfin, les quincailleries existantes permettent généralement d'immobiliser l'ouvrant au plus en deux positions, à savoir en position d'ouverture totale et de fermeture totale. Il est souvent impossible d'immobiliser l'ouvrant en une position intermédiaire entre les positions d'ouverture totale et de fermeture totale.Finally, the existing hardware stores generally allow to immobilize the opening at most in two positions, namely in full open position and total closure. It is often impossible to immobilize the opening in an intermediate position between the fully open and fully closed positions.

Un problème proposé par la présente invention est de fournir avec un coût de production réduit un ensemble pour une fenêtre, une porte-fenêtre ou un volet comprenant un ouvrant coulissant dans un dormant qui soit simple et sans risques à manipuler, qui peut être immobilisé en position intermédiaire, ledit ensemble présentant de bonnes caractéristiques d'étanchéité et une esthétique améliorée.A problem proposed by the present invention is to provide with a reduced production cost an assembly for a window, a French window or a shutter comprising a sliding leaf in a frame which is simple and safe to handle, which can be immobilized in intermediate position, said assembly having good sealing characteristics and improved aesthetics.

Selon un autre aspect, l'invention a pour but de faciliter les opérations de démontage de l'ouvrant d'un tel ensemble lors d'une maintenance.According to another aspect, the invention aims to facilitate disassembly operations of the opening of such an assembly during maintenance.

Pour atteindre ces objets ainsi que d'autres, l'invention propose un ensemble pour une fenêtre, une porte-fenêtre ou un volet comprenant un ouvrant coulissant dans un dormant, dans lequel :

  • l'ouvrant comprend une traverse supérieure et une traverse inférieure,
  • le dormant comprend :
    • un rail de guidage supérieur comprenant une nervure de guidage destinée à être reçue au moins en partie par emboîtement dans la traverse supérieure,
    • un rail de guidage inférieur destiné à reposer sur le sol, ledit rail de guidage inférieur comprenant une nervure de roulement,
  • des joints compressibles sont portés par l'un de la traverse supérieure ou du rail de guidage supérieur et par l'un de la traverse inférieure ou du rail de guidage inférieur, et sont destinés à être compressés entre l'ouvrant et le dormant par un déplacement de l'ouvrant transversalement à sa direction de coulissement ;
selon l'invention :
  • sur une face inférieure de la traverse inférieure sont disposés des moyens de roulement destinés à rouler longitudinalement sur la nervure de roulement, lesdits moyens de roulement autorisant un déplacement de l'ouvrant transversalement à la direction de coulissement de l'ouvrant,
  • sur la face inférieure de la traverse inférieure sont disposés des premiers moyens de déplacement transversal comprenant des moyens d'appui, aptes à venir porter en appui contre la nervure de roulement pour provoquer un déplacement relatif de la traverse inférieure par rapport au rail de guidage inférieur transversalement à la direction de coulissement de l'ouvrant,
  • sur une face supérieure de la traverse supérieure sont disposés des deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal comprenant des moyens d'appui, aptes à venir porter en appui contre la nervure de guidage pour provoquer un déplacement relatif de la traverse supérieure par rapport au rail de guidage supérieur transversalement à la direction de coulissement de l'ouvrant.
To achieve these objects as well as others, the invention proposes an assembly for a window, a French window or a shutter comprising a sliding leaf in a frame, in which:
  • the opening comprises an upper cross member and a lower cross member,
  • the frame includes:
    • an upper guide rail comprising a guide rib intended to be received at least partly by interlocking in the upper rail,
    • a lower guide rail for resting on the ground, said lower guide rail comprising a running rib,
  • compressible seals are carried by one of the upper cross member or the upper guide rail and one of the lower cross member or the lower guide rail, and are intended to be compressed between the sash and the frame by a moving the opening transversely to its sliding direction;
according to the invention:
  • on a lower face of the lower crossbar are disposed rolling means intended to roll longitudinally on the rolling rib, said rolling means allowing a displacement of the opening transversely to the sliding direction of the opening,
  • on the lower face of the lower cross member are arranged first transverse displacement means comprising support means, adapted to bear against the rolling rib to cause relative movement of the lower cross member relative to the lower guide rail transversely to the sliding direction of the opening,
  • on an upper face of the upper cross member are arranged second transverse displacement means comprising bearing means, adapted to bear against the guide rib to cause a relative displacement of the upper cross member relative to the upper guide rail transversely to the sliding direction of the opening.

Les moyens de roulement sont indépendants des moyens de déplacement transversal. On peut ainsi avoir recours à des moyens de roulement et à des moyens de déplacement transversal plus simples, moins onéreux et peu encombrants.The rolling means are independent of the transverse displacement means. It is thus possible to use rolling means and means of transverse displacement simpler, less expensive and compact.

Les moyens de déplacement transversal étant embarqués sur les traverses inférieure et supérieure de l'ouvrant et n'ayant besoin que de venir en appui sur la nervure de roulement et la nervure de guidage, il n'y a pas besoin de prévoir des gâches de verrouillage rapportées et fixées sur les rails de guidage inférieur et supérieur. L'absence de telles gâches sur les rails de guidage inférieur et supérieur est plus esthétique, réduit les coûts de production, et est particulièrement appréciable lorsque l'ouvrant a une grande longueur qui aurait nécessité la présence de plusieurs gâches en des tronçons intermédiaires des rails de guidage inférieur et supérieur (car il y a alors un risque de conflit entre les gâches et les éléments portés par l'ouvrant destinés à venir coopérer avec lesdites gâches en fin du coulissement de l'ouvrant pour son verrouillage).The transverse displacement means being embarked on the lower and upper cross members of the opening and needing only to bear against the rolling rib and the guide rib, there is no need to provide latches of locks attached and fixed on the lower and upper guide rails. The absence of such strikes on the lower and upper guide rails is more aesthetic, reduces production costs, and is particularly significant when the opening has a great length that would have required the presence of several strikes in intermediate sections of the rails guide lower and upper (because there is then a risk of conflict between the strikes and the elements carried by the opening intended to cooperate with said latches at the end of the sliding of the opening for locking).

La rainure de roulement sert simultanément de chemin de roulement pour le guidage des moyens de roulement lors du coulissement de l'ouvrant, mais sert également de butée pour que les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal provoquent un déplacement de l'ouvrant transversalement à sa direction de coulissement. De son côté, la nervure de guidage sert simultanément au guidage de la traverse supérieure lors du coulissement de l'ouvrant, mais sert également de butée pour que les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal provoquent un déplacement de l'ouvrant transversalement à sa direction de coulissement. Cela permet de réduire la largeur des rails de guidage inférieur et supérieur, ainsi que des traverses inférieure et supérieure.The rolling groove serves simultaneously as a raceway for guiding the rolling means during the sliding of the sash, but also serves as a stop so that the first transverse displacement means cause the sash to move transversely to its direction of travel. sliding. On its side, the guide rib serves simultaneously to guide the upper cross member during the sliding of the opening, but also serves as a stop for the second transverse displacement means causing a displacement of the opening transversely to its sliding direction . This reduces the width of the upper and lower guide rails as well as the lower and upper rails.

Les moyens de roulement et les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal étant disposés sous la traverse inférieure, tandis que les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal sont disposés sur la traverse supérieure, ceux-ci peuvent être aisément dissimulés pour améliorer l'esthétique de l'ensemble.The rolling means and the first transverse displacement means being arranged under the lower cross member, while the second transverse displacement means are arranged on the upper cross member, these can be easily concealed to improve the aesthetics of the assembly.

Enfin, l'ouvrant peut être immobilisé en toute position intermédiaire entre la position d'ouverture totale et de fermeture totale car les premiers et deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal peuvent prendre appui à n'importe quel endroit de la longueur de la nervure de roulement et de la nervure de guidage qui sont continues sur toute la longueur des rails de guidage inférieur et supérieur. La compression des joints entre l'ouvrant et le dormant est alors généralement suffisante pour immobiliser l'ouvrant en position intermédiaire de façon fiable.Finally, the opening can be immobilized in any intermediate position between the fully open and fully closed position since the first and second transverse displacement means can be supported at any point along the length of the rolling rib and of the guide rib which are continuous along the entire length of the upper and lower guide rails. The compression of the seals between the sash and the frame is then generally sufficient to immobilize the sash in the intermediate position reliably.

De préférence, dans une première variante, les moyens de roulement peuvent comprendre au moins une roulette disposée en liaison pivot glissant autour d'un axe s'étendant transversalement à la direction de coulissement de l'ouvrant. En alternative, dans une deuxième variante, les moyens de roulement peuvent comprendre au moins une roulette disposée en liaison pivot autour d'un axe s'étendant parallèlement à la direction de coulissement de l'ouvrant.Preferably, in a first variant, the rolling means may comprise at least one wheel arranged in pivoting connection sliding about an axis extending transversely to the sliding direction of the opening. Alternatively, in a second variant, the rolling means may comprise at least one wheel arranged in pivot connection about an axis extending parallel to the sliding direction of the opening.

De telles structures, simples, peu onéreuses et robustes, permettent d'assurer le déplacement à coulissement de l'ouvrant par roulement sur la nervure de roulement, tout en autorisant un déplacement aisé de l'ouvrant transversalement à sa direction de coulissement.Such simple, inexpensive and robust structures allow the sliding movement of the sash to be rotated on the rolling rib while allowing easy movement of the sash transversely to its direction of sliding.

Avantageusement, on peut prévoir que :

  • la nervure de roulement est en matière plastique et est recouverte d'un capot en métal comportant une section transversale sensiblement en forme de U ou de V inversé avec deux branches latérales s'étendant à l'écart d'une branche ou d'un sommet de liaison,
  • la branche ou le sommet de liaison est destiné(e) à supporter les moyens de roulement,
  • l'une des branches latérales est destinée à recevoir en appui les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal.
Advantageously, it can be provided that:
  • the rolling rib is made of plastic and is covered with a metal cap having a substantially U-shaped or inverted V-shaped cross-section with two lateral branches extending away from a branch or a vertex link,
  • the branch or the connecting vertex is intended (e) to support the rolling means,
  • one of the lateral branches is intended to receive in support the first transverse displacement means.

Dans le cas où la fenêtre, la porte-fenêtre ou le volet est fabriqué(e) en matière plastique telle que du PVC, le capot métallique recouvrant la nervure de roulement présente une résistance mécanique suffisante pour endurer le poids de l'ouvrant et les appuis générés par les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal. On limite ainsi les risques d'une casse ou d'une usure prématurées de la nervure de roulement, notamment par un marquage sur son côté en raison des appuis générés par les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal.In the case where the window, the French window or the shutter is made of plastic material such as PVC, the metal cover covering the rolling rib has sufficient mechanical strength to withstand the weight of the door and the doors. supports generated by the first transverse displacement means. This limits the risk of premature breakage or wear of the rolling rib, in particular by marking on its side because of the support generated by the first transverse displacement means.

Avantageusement, on peut prévoir que :

  • la traverse inférieure de l'ouvrant comporte une première rainure longitudinale dans laquelle sont disposés les moyens de roulement, et une deuxième rainure longitudinale dans laquelle sont disposés les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal,
  • la traverse supérieure de l'ouvrant comporte une troisième rainure longitudinale dans laquelle sont disposés les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal.
Advantageously, it can be provided that:
  • the lower cross member of the opening comprises a first longitudinal groove in which the rolling means are arranged, and a second longitudinal groove in which the first transverse displacement means are arranged,
  • the upper cross member of the opening comprises a third longitudinal groove in which are arranged the second transverse displacement means.

Les première, deuxième et troisième rainures longitudinales procurent des logements pour recevoir les moyens de roulement, les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal et les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal. Ces rainures longitudinales sont faciles et peu onéreuses à fabriquer, notamment lorsque les traverses inférieure et supérieure consistent en des profilés fabriqués par extrusion (en matière plastique telle que du PVC ou en matière métallique telle que de l'aluminium). Enfin, ces rainures permettent de dissimuler au moins en partie les moyens de roulement, les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal et les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal pour améliorer l'esthétique de l'ensemble.The first, second and third longitudinal grooves provide housings for receiving the rolling means, the first transverse displacement means and the second transverse displacement means. These longitudinal grooves are easy and inexpensive to manufacture, especially when the lower and upper crosspieces consist of profiles made by extrusion (plastic such as PVC or metal material such as aluminum). Finally, these grooves make it possible to conceal at least part of the rolling means, the first transverse displacement means and the second transverse displacement means to improve the aesthetics of the assembly.

De préférence, la traverse supérieure de l'ouvrant peut comprendre une quatrième rainure longitudinale conformée de façon à recevoir au moins en partie la nervure de guidage lors d'un mouvement de translation de l'ouvrant en direction du rail de guidage supérieur.Preferably, the upper cross member of the opening may comprise a fourth longitudinal groove shaped so as to receive at least part of the guide rib during a translational movement of the opening in the direction of the upper guide rail.

Dans le cas où les traverses supérieure et inférieure de l'ouvrant sont simultanément respectivement emboîtées au moins en partie dans les rails de guidage supérieur et inférieur, la pénétration de la nervure de guidage du rail de guidage supérieur dans la quatrième rainure permet de soulever l'ouvrant à l'écart du rail de guidage inférieur jusqu'à en extraire totalement la traverse inférieure. On peut alors pivoter l'ouvrant (selon un mouvement de rotation de la traverse inférieure autour de la traverse supérieure) pour procéder de façon simple et rapide à son démontage, par exemple lors d'une opération de maintenance. Lors du démontage, il n'est ainsi nécessaire que d'effectuer un soulèvement de l'ouvrant puis un pivotement, sans intervenir sur les moyens de roulement ou les moyens de déplacement transversal. La remise en place de l'ouvrant se fait par une séquence inverse des opérations tout aussi simple et rapide, sans intervenir non plus sur les moyens de roulement ou les moyens de déplacement transversal, si ce n'est pour positionner les moyens de roulement sur la nervure de roulement.In the case where the upper and lower cross members of the opening are simultaneously respectively nested at least partly in the upper and lower guide rails, the penetration of the guide rib of the upper guide rail into the fourth groove makes it possible to lift the opening away from the lower guide rail to fully extract the bottom rail. One can then rotate the opening (in a rotational movement of the lower rail around the top rail) to proceed quickly and easy disassembly, for example during a maintenance operation. During disassembly, it is thus necessary only to lift the opening and then pivot, without interfering with the rolling means or the transverse displacement means. The repositioning of the opening is done by an inverse sequence of operations just as simple and fast, without intervening either on the rolling means or the means of transverse displacement, if not to position the rolling means on the rolling rib.

Une extraction de l'ouvrant par simple déboîtement est ainsi réalisable sans avoir à démonter une partie de l'ouvrant, ni les premiers ou deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal, ni les moyens de roulement. Tel n'est pas le cas dans l'ensemble décrit dans le document FR 2 148 943 dont la partie supérieure est explicitement indiquée comme étant identique à la partie inférieure : il n'y a ainsi pas de jeu vertical possible, et il faut nécessairement démonter une partie de l'ouvrant, les moyens de déplacement transversal, les moyens de roulement et/ou les moyens d'étanchéité pour parvenir à extraire l'ouvrant. Un tel démontage est particulièrement défavorable pour le technicien de maintenance, lequel doit alors prendre en charge la responsabilité d'éventuelles défaillances ultérieures pouvant résulter du démontage.An extraction of the opening by simple disengagement is thus achievable without having to dismount part of the opening, nor the first or second means of transverse displacement, nor the rolling means. This is not the case in the whole described in the document FR 2,148,943 whose upper part is explicitly indicated as being identical to the lower part: there is thus no vertical play possible, and it is necessary to dismount part of the opening, the transverse displacement means, the rolling means and / or the sealing means to extract the opening. Such disassembly is particularly unfavorable for the service technician, who must then take responsibility for any subsequent failures that may result from disassembly.

Avantageusement, la traverse supérieure comprenant les troisième et quatrième rainures longitudinales peut avoir une forme de section transversale identique à celle de la traverse inférieure comprenant les première et deuxième rainures longitudinales. Les traverses inférieure et supérieure peuvent ainsi être fabriquées avec un ou plusieurs mêmes profilés. La première rainure et la quatrième rainure ne remplissent pas les mêmes fonctions, mais elles peuvent le faire en adoptant la même forme pour une économie de fabrication de l'ouvrant.Advantageously, the upper cross member comprising the third and fourth longitudinal grooves may have a cross-sectional shape identical to that of the lower crossbar comprising the first and second longitudinal grooves. The lower and upper sleepers can thus be manufactured with one or more same profiles. The first groove and the fourth groove do not perform the same functions, but they can do it by adopting the same shape for an economy of manufacture of the opening.

De préférence, on peut prévoir que :

  • les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal comprennent une tige articulée à pivotement autour d'une direction transversale sous la traverse inférieure, et dont le pivotement est provoqué par le déplacement en translation d'un galet selon la direction d'allongement de la traverse inférieure,
  • lors du pivotement de la tige par translation du galet, la tige vient porter en appui contre la nervure de roulement pour provoquer un déplacement de la traverse inférieure par rapport au rail de guidage inférieur transversalement à la direction de coulissement de l'ouvrant.
Preferably, it can be provided that:
  • the first transverse displacement means comprise a rod hinged to pivot about a transverse direction under the lower beam, and whose pivoting is caused by the displacement in translation of a roller in the direction of elongation of the lower rail,
  • during the pivoting of the rod by translation of the roller, the rod comes bearing against the rolling rib to cause movement of the lower cross member relative to the lower guide rail transversely to the sliding direction of the opening.

Les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal ont ainsi une structure très simple et robuste. On peut en particulier utiliser les crémones à galet(s) conventionnelles existantes sur le marché, sur lesquels sera simplement rapportée et fixée la tige articulée à pivotement, de sorte que le coût des premiers moyens de déplacement transversal est modique.The first transverse displacement means thus have a very simple and robust structure. In particular, it is possible to use conventional roller bolts (s) existing on the market, on which will simply be attached and fixed articulated rod pivoting, so that the cost of the first means of transverse displacement is low.

Avantageusement, les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal peuvent comprendre plusieurs tiges chacune déplaçable par un galet respectif, les tiges étant distantes entre elles, selon la direction d'allongement de la traverse inférieure, d'une distance comprise entre environ 600 mm et environ 1600 mm.Advantageously, the first transverse displacement means may comprise several rods each displaceable by a respective roller, the rods being spaced apart from each other, in the direction of elongation of the lower crossbar, a distance of between about 600 mm and about 1600 mm. .

La présence de plusieurs tiges venant prendre appui sur le rail de guidage inférieur permet de presser le(s) joint(s) entre la traverse inférieure et le rail de guidage inférieur de façon plus uniforme sur toute la longueur de la traverse inférieure pour une meilleure étanchéité. Et un tel écartement entre deux tiges successives permet de limiter efficacement les risques de déformation de la traverse inférieure en cas de vent, déformation qui dégraderait la compression du(des) joint(s) et l'étanchéité. Dans le cas d'une traverse inférieure en matière plastique (telle que du PVC par exemple), la distance d'écartement entre deux tiges est avantageusement comprise entre environ 600 mm et environ 900 mm. Dans le cas d'une traverse inférieure en matière métallique (telle que de l'aluminium par exemple), la distance d'écartement entre deux tiges est avantageusement comprise entre environ 1000 mm et environ 1600 mm.The presence of several rods bearing on the lower guide rail makes it possible to press the seal (s) between the lower cross member and the lower guide rail more uniformly over the entire length of the lower crossbar for better seal. And such spacing between two successive rods effectively limit the risk of deformation of the lower cross in case of wind, deformation which would degrade the compression of the seal (s) and the seal. In the case of a lower plastic cross member (such as PVC for example), the spacing distance between two rods is advantageously between about 600 mm and about 900 mm. In the case of a lower crosspiece of metal material (such as aluminum for example), the spacing distance between two rods is advantageously between about 1000 mm and about 1600 mm.

De préférence, on peut prévoir que :

  • les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal comprennent une tige articulée à pivotement autour d'une direction transversale au-dessus de la traverse supérieure, et dont le pivotement est provoqué par le déplacement en translation d'un galet selon la direction d'allongement de la traverse supérieure,
  • lors du pivotement de la tige par translation du galet, la tige vient porter en appui contre la nervure de guidage pour provoquer un déplacement de la traverse supérieure par rapport au rail de guidage supérieur transversalement à la direction de coulissement de l'ouvrant.
Preferably, it can be provided that:
  • the second transverse displacement means comprise an articulated rod pivotally about a transverse direction above the upper cross member, and whose pivoting is caused by the translation displacement of a roller in the direction of extension of the cross member top,
  • during the pivoting of the rod by translation of the roller, the rod comes bearing against the guide rib to cause a displacement of the upper cross member relative to the upper guide rail transversely to the sliding direction of the opening.

Les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal ont ainsi une structure très simple et robuste. On peut en particulier utiliser les crémones à galet(s) classiques existantes sur le marché, sur lesquelles sera simplement rapportée et articulée à pivotement la tige, de sorte que le coût des deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal est modique.The second transverse displacement means thus have a very simple and robust structure. In particular, it is possible to use the conventional roller bolts (s) existing on the market, on which the rod will simply be pivoted and pivoted, so that the cost of the second means of transverse displacement is small.

Avantageusement, les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal peuvent comprendre plusieurs tiges chacune déplaçable par un galet respectif, les tiges étant distantes entre elles, selon la direction d'allongement de la traverse supérieure, d'une distance comprise entre environ 600 mm et environ 1600 mm. Dans le cas d'une traverse supérieure en matière plastique (telle que du PVC par exemple), la distance d'écartement entre deux tiges est avantageusement comprise entre environ 600 mm et environ 900 mm. Dans le cas d'une traverse supérieure en matière métallique (telle que de l'aluminium par exemple), la distance d'écartement entre deux tiges est avantageusement comprise entre environ 1000 mm et environ 1600 mm.Advantageously, the second transverse displacement means may comprise several rods each displaceable by a respective roller, the rods being spaced apart from each other, in the direction of elongation of the upper cross member, by a distance of between about 600 mm and about 1600 mm. . In the case of a plastic upper cross member (such as PVC for example), the spacing distance between two rods is advantageously between about 600 mm and about 900 mm. In the case of an upper cross member of metal material (such as aluminum for example), the spacing distance between two rods is advantageously between about 1000 mm and about 1600 mm.

La présence de plusieurs tiges venant prendre appui sur le rail de guidage supérieur permet de presser le(s) joint(s) entre la traverse supérieure et le rail de guidage supérieur de façon plus uniforme sur toute la longueur de la traverse supérieure pour une meilleure étanchéité. Et un tel écartement entre deux tiges successives permet de limiter efficacement les risques de déformation de la traverse supérieure en cas de vent, déformation qui dégraderait la compression du(des) joint(s) et l'étanchéité.The presence of several rods bearing on the upper guide rail makes it possible to press the seal (s) between the upper cross member and the upper guide rail more evenly over the entire length of the upper crossbar for better seal. And such spacing between two successive rods effectively limit the risk of deformation of the upper cross member in case of wind, deformation which would degrade the compression of the seal (s) and the seal.

Pour procurer un impact visuel réduit de l'ouvrant et une esthétique améliorée de celui-ci, les traverses inférieure et supérieure de l'ouvrant peuvent de préférence présenter des largeurs, prises perpendiculairement au plan défini par les traverses inférieure et supérieure, inférieures à 60 mm.To provide a reduced visual impact of the opening and improved aesthetics thereof, the upper and lower cross members of the opening may preferably have widths, taken perpendicular to the plane defined by the lower and upper cross members, less than 60 mm.

Les rails de guidage supérieur et inférieur peuvent comprendre chacun un joint respectif compressible destiné à être pressé respectivement contre la traverse supérieure ou inférieure. En alternative ou en complément, les traverses supérieure et inférieure peuvent comprendre chacune un joint respectif compressible destiné à être pressé respectivement contre le rail de guidage supérieur ou inférieur.The upper and lower guide rails may each comprise a respective compressible seal intended to be pressed respectively against the upper or lower cross member. As an alternative or in addition, sleepers upper and lower can each comprise a respective compressible seal intended to be respectively pressed against the upper or lower guide rail.

Avantageusement, les joints portés par les traverses supérieure ou inférieure sont respectivement pressés contre la nervure de guidage ou la nervure de roulement. La nervure de guidage ou la nervure de roulement est ainsi utilisée non seulement pour le guidage de l'ouvrant lors de sa translation par coulissement, mais également pour l'étanchéité. Le fait pour la nervure de guidage ou la nervure de roulement d'assurer simultanément ces deux fonctions permet de rendre plus compact le rail de guidage supérieur ou inférieur, et donc notamment moins onéreux.Advantageously, the joints carried by the upper or lower cross members are respectively pressed against the guide rib or the rolling rib. The guide rib or the rolling rib is thus used not only for guiding the opening during its translation by sliding, but also for sealing. The fact that the guide rib or the rolling rib simultaneously provide these two functions makes it possible to make the upper or lower guide rail more compact, and therefore particularly less expensive.

Il est également proposé l'utilisation d'un ensemble pour une fenêtre, une porte-fenêtre ou un volet comprenant un ouvrant coulissant dans un dormant, dans lequel ensemble :

  • l'ouvrant comprend une traverse supérieure et une traverse inférieure,
  • le dormant comprend :
    • un rail de guidage supérieur comprenant une nervure de guidage destinée à être reçue au moins en partie par emboîtement dans la traverse supérieure,
    • un rail de guidage inférieur destiné à reposer sur le sol, ledit rail de guidage inférieur comprenant une nervure de roulement,
  • des joints compressibles sont portés par l'un de la traverse supérieure ou du rail de guidage supérieur et par l'un de la traverse inférieure ou du rail de guidage inférieur, et sont destinés à être compressés entre l'ouvrant et le dormant par un déplacement de l'ouvrant transversalement à sa direction de coulissement ;
selon un aspect différent de l'invention, le déplacement de l'ouvrant transversalement à sa direction de coulissement pour la compression des joints s'effectue par un mouvement de translation depuis l'extérieur du bâtiment vers l'intérieur du bâtiment.It is also proposed the use of an assembly for a window, a French window or a shutter comprising a sliding leaf in a frame, in which together:
  • the opening comprises an upper cross member and a lower cross member,
  • the frame includes:
    • an upper guide rail comprising a guide rib intended to be received at least partly by interlocking in the upper rail,
    • a lower guide rail for resting on the ground, said lower guide rail comprising a running rib,
  • compressible seals are carried by one of the upper cross member or the upper guide rail and one of the lower cross member or the lower guide rail, and are intended to be compressed between the sash and the frame by a moving the opening transversely to its sliding direction;
according to a different aspect of the invention, the displacement of the opening transversely to its sliding direction for the compression of the joints is effected by a translational movement from the outside of the building towards the interior of the building.

Une telle direction de déplacement de l'ouvrant pour compresser les joints fait que le vent à l'extérieur du bâtiment venant heurter l'ouvrant a tendance à pousser celui-ci contre les rails de guidage inférieur et supérieur en compressant encore plus les joints. L'étanchéité de la fenêtre, de la porte-fenêtre ou du volet n'est ainsi pas dégradée, et est même augmentée, en cas de vent à l'extérieur du bâtiment.Such direction of movement of the opening to compress the seals causes the wind outside the building to hit the opening tends to push it against the lower and upper guide rails by compressing the joints even more. The tightness of the window, the French window or shutter is not degraded, and is even increased, in case of wind outside the building.

Sur les figures 1 à 9 est illustré un mode de réalisation particulier, non limitatif et fourni seulement à titre d'exemple, d'ensemble 1 selon la présente invention, pour une fenêtre ou porte-fenêtre comprenant deux ouvrants 2 et 2' coulissant dans un dormant 3. Sur les figures 1 et 6 à 9, l'ouvrant 2' a été représenté schématiquement par un polygone par souci de simplification. Celui-ci est toutefois similaire à l'ouvrant 2, de sorte qu'il ne sera par la suite question que de ce dernier.On the Figures 1 to 9 is illustrated a particular embodiment, not limited and provided only by way of example, of assembly 1 according to the present invention, for a window or French window comprising two opening 2 and 2 'sliding in a frame 3. On figures 1 and 6 to 9 , the opening 2 'has been shown schematically by a polygon for the sake of simplification. This one is however similar to the opening 2, so that it will be thereafter only question of the latter.

Bien qu'il ne soit question sur les figures 1 à 12 que d'une fenêtre ou d'une porte-fenêtre, l'invention est également applicable à un volet.Although there is no mention of Figures 1 to 12 that of a window or a French window, the invention is also applicable to a shutter.

On voit sur la figure 1 que l'ouvrant 2 comprend une traverse supérieure 4 et une traverse inférieure 5. Le dormant 3 comprend un rail de guidage supérieur 6 comprenant une nervure de guidage 7 destinée à être reçue au moins en partie par emboîtement dans la traverse supérieure 4. Le dormant 3 comprend également un rail de guidage inférieur 8 destiné à reposer sur le sol, ledit rail de guidage inférieur 8 comprenant une nervure de roulement 9.We see on the figure 1 that the opening 2 comprises an upper cross member 4 and a lower cross member 5. The frame 3 comprises an upper guide rail 6 comprising a guide rib 7 intended to be received at least partly by interlocking in the upper rail 4. The frame 3 also includes a lower guide rail 8 for resting on the ground, said lower guide rail 8 comprising a rolling rib 9.

Des joints compressibles 10 et 11 sont respectivement portés par la traverse supérieure 4 et par le rail de guidage supérieur 6, tandis que des joints compressibles 12 et 13 sont respectivement portés par la traverse inférieure 5 ou par le rail de guidage inférieur 8, et sont destinés à être compressés entre l'ouvrant 2 et le dormant 3 par un déplacement de l'ouvrant 2 (flèche F7 sur la figure 6) selon la direction axiale I-I, c'est-à-dire transversalement à sa direction de coulissement II-II (qui est parallèle aux directions d'allongement des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5).Compressible joints 10 and 11 are respectively carried by the upper cross member 4 and the upper guide rail 6, while compressible joints 12 and 13 are respectively carried by the lower cross member 5 or the lower guide rail 8, and are intended to be compressed between the opening 2 and the frame 3 by a displacement of the opening 2 (arrow F7 on the figure 6 ) in the axial direction II, that is to say transversely to its sliding direction II-II (which is parallel to the elongation directions of the upper 4 and lower 5 crosspieces).

La présence des quatre joints 10, 11, 12 et 13 n'est pas nécessaire : on peut se contenter de l'un des joints 10 ou 11 avec l'un des joints 12 ou 13.The presence of the four seals 10, 11, 12 and 13 is not necessary: it can be satisfied with one of the seals 10 or 11 with one of the seals 12 or 13.

La traverse supérieure 4 comporte une face supérieure 4a tournée vers le rail de guidage supérieur 6 (figure 1). De son côté, la traverse inférieure 5 comporte une face inférieure 5a tournée vers le rail de guidage inférieur 8 (figure 1).The upper cross member 4 has an upper face 4a turned towards the upper guide rail 6 ( figure 1 ). On its side, the lower crosspiece 5 has a lower face 5a turned towards the lower guide rail 8 ( figure 1 ).

La traverse inférieure 5 de l'ouvrant 2 comporte une première rainure longitudinale 14 et une deuxième rainure longitudinale 15 ménagée dans la face inférieure 5a. De son côté, la traverse supérieure 4 de l'ouvrant 2 comporte une troisième rainure longitudinale 16 et une quatrième rainure longitudinale 17 ménagée dans la face inférieure 4a.The lower cross member 5 of the opening 2 comprises a first longitudinal groove 14 and a second longitudinal groove 15 formed in the lower face 5a. For its part, the upper cross member 4 of the opening 2 comprises a third longitudinal groove 16 and a fourth longitudinal groove 17 formed in the lower face 4a.

On constate que la traverse supérieure 4 comprenant les troisième 16 et quatrième 17 rainures longitudinales a une forme de section transversale identique à celle de la traverse inférieure 5 comprenant les première 14 et deuxième 15 rainures longitudinales. Les traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5 sont ainsi fabriquées en usine par tronçonnage d'un seul et même profilé, ce qui présente un avantage en termes de coûts de production.It is noted that the upper cross member 4 comprising the third 16 and fourth 17 longitudinal grooves has a cross sectional shape identical to that of the lower cross member 5 comprising the first 14 and second longitudinal grooves. The upper 4 and lower 5 crosspieces are thus manufactured in the factory by cutting a single profile, which has an advantage in terms of production costs.

Comme il sera expliqué ci-après, en dépit de l'identité de la forme de leur section transversale, les rainures longitudinales 14 à 17 des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5 sont utilisées différemment.As will be explained below, despite the identity of the shape of their cross-section, the longitudinal grooves 14 to 17 of the upper 4 and lower 5 crosspieces are used differently.

Comme illustré sur les figures 6 et 7, dans la première rainure longitudinale 14 sont disposés des moyens de roulement 18 dont une première variante est plus particulièrement détaillée sur les figures 4 et 5. Les moyens de roulement 18 sont destinés à rouler longitudinalement sur la nervure de roulement 9, lesdits moyens de roulement 18 comprenant une paire de roulettes 19 déplaçable transversalement à la direction axiale II-II de coulissement de l'ouvrant 2 par un mouvement de translation selon une distance prédéterminée d'environ 3 mm à environ 10 mm. Sur les figures 4 et 5, ce mouvement est illustré par la double flèche F1. Pour autoriser un tel mouvement, dans la première variante illustrée sur les figures 4 et 5, la paire de roulettes 19 est disposée en liaison pivot glissant autour d'un axe 20 par rapport à un boîtier 29. L'axe 20 s'étend transversalement à la direction de coulissement (II-II) de l'ouvrant (2). Le boîtier 29 est reçu à faible jeu latéral dans la première rainure longitudinale 14.As illustrated on figures 6 and 7 in the first longitudinal groove 14 are disposed rolling means 18, a first variant is more particularly detailed on the Figures 4 and 5 . The rolling means 18 are intended to roll longitudinally on the rolling rib 9, said rolling means 18 comprising a pair of rollers 19 movable transversely to the axial direction II-II of sliding of the opening 2 by a translational movement according to a predetermined distance from about 3 mm to about 10 mm. On the Figures 4 and 5 this movement is illustrated by the double arrow F1. To authorize such a movement, in the first variant illustrated on the Figures 4 and 5 , the pair of wheels 19 is arranged in sliding pivot connection about an axis 20 relative to a housing 29. The axis 20 extends transversely to the sliding direction (II-II) of the opening (2) . The housing 29 is received at low side play in the first longitudinal groove 14.

Une deuxième variante de moyens de roulement 18 est illustrée sur les figures 11 et 12. Dans cette variante, les moyens de roulement 18 comprennent également une paire de roulettes 19. Les roulettes 19 sont cette fois disposée en liaison pivot par rapport au boîtier 29 autour d'un axe 20' s'étendant parallèlement à la direction de coulissement II-II de l'ouvrant 2. Les roulettes 19 peuvent ainsi pivoter par un mouvement de rotation autour de l'axe 20' selon le mouvement illustré par la double flèche F7.A second variant of rolling means 18 is illustrated on the Figures 11 and 12 . In this variant, the rolling means 18 also comprise a pair of rollers 19. The rollers 19 are this time arranged in pivot connection relative to the housing 29 around an axis 20 'extending parallel to the sliding direction II. II of the opening 2. The casters 19 can thus rotate by a rotational movement about the axis 20 'according to the movement illustrated by the double arrow F7.

Toujours sur les figures 6 et 7, on voit que dans la deuxième rainure longitudinale 15 sont disposés des premiers moyens de déplacement transversal 21, lesquels sont plus particulièrement détaillés sur les figures 2 et 3. Les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal 21 comprennent des moyens d'appui 22, aptes à venir porter en appui contre la nervure de roulement 9 pour provoquer un déplacement relatif de la traverse inférieure 5 par rapport au rail de guidage inférieur 8 transversalement à la direction axiale II-II de coulissement de l'ouvrant 2.Always on figures 6 and 7 it can be seen that in the second longitudinal groove 15 are arranged first transverse displacement means 21, which are more particularly detailed on the Figures 2 and 3 . The first transverse displacement means 21 comprise support means 22, able to come bearing against the rolling rib 9 to cause relative movement of the lower cross member 5 with respect to the lower guide rail 8 transversely to the axial direction. II-II sliding of the opening 2.

En ce qui concerne plus particulièrement la structure et le fonctionnement des premiers moyens de déplacement transversal 21, on observe sur les figures 2, 3, 6 et 7 que :

  • les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal 21 comprennent une tige 24 articulée à pivotement (illustré par la double flèche F2) autour d'une direction transversale III-III sous la traverse inférieure 5, et dont le pivotement (selon le mouvement illustré par la flèche F3) est provoqué par le déplacement en translation (illustrée par la flèche F4) d'un galet 25 selon la direction d'allongement de la traverse inférieure 5 (parallèle à la direction axiale II-II),
  • lors du pivotement de la tige 24 par translation du galet 25, la tige 24 vient porter en appui contre la nervure de roulement 9 (figure 7) pour provoquer un déplacement de la traverse inférieure 5 par rapport au rail de guidage inférieur 8 transversalement à la direction axiale II-II de coulissement de l'ouvrant 2 (c'est-à-dire selon la direction axiale I-I).
As regards more particularly the structure and the operation of the first transverse displacement means 21, it is observed on the Figures 2, 3 , 6 and 7 than :
  • the first transverse displacement means 21 comprise a pivotally articulated rod 24 (illustrated by the double arrow F2) around a transverse direction III-III under the lower crossbar 5, and whose pivoting (according to the movement illustrated by the arrow F3 ) is caused by the displacement in translation (illustrated by the arrow F4) of a roller 25 in the direction of elongation of the lower cross member 5 (parallel to the axial direction II-II),
  • during the pivoting of the rod 24 by translation of the roller 25, the rod 24 comes bearing against the rolling rib 9 ( figure 7 ) to cause displacement of the lower cross member 5 relative to the lower guide rail 8 transversely to the axial direction II-II of sliding of the opening 2 (that is to say in the axial direction II).

La tige 24 peut être rappelée en rotation par un ressort de rappel, de telle sorte que lorsque le galet 25 est déplacé en translation selon un mouvement inverse de celui illustré par la flèche F4, la tige 24 pivote automatiquement selon un mouvement inverse de celui illustré par la flèche F3.The rod 24 can be biased in rotation by a return spring, so that when the roller 25 is moved in translation according to a movement inverse of that illustrated by the arrow F4, the rod 24 pivots automatically in a reverse movement from that illustrated by the arrow F3.

L'homme du métier reconnaîtra sur les figures 2 et 3 une simple crémone à galet(s) 26 sur laquelle a simplement été rapportée et fixée à pivotement la tige 24. On peut ainsi utiliser une quincaillerie standard de crémone à galet(s) 26 qui est en général compacte et dont le coût est très réduit.The skilled person will recognize on the Figures 2 and 3 a simple cremone roller (s) 26 on which has simply been reported and pivotally attached to the rod 24. It can thus be used a standard hardware cremone roller (s) 26 which is generally compact and whose cost is very reduced .

A nouveau sur les figures 6 et 7, on observe que dans la troisième rainure longitudinale 16 sont disposés des deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal 23 comprenant aussi des moyens d'appui 22, aptes à venir porter en appui contre la nervure de guidage 7 pour provoquer un déplacement relatif de la traverse supérieure 4 par rapport au rail de guidage supérieur 6 transversalement à la direction axiale II-II de coulissement de l'ouvrant 2. La structure et le fonctionnement des deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal 23 sont identiques à ceux des premiers moyens de déplacement transversal 21. Les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal 23 sont ainsi plus détaillés sur les figures 2 et 3.Again on the figures 6 and 7 it is observed that in the third longitudinal groove 16 are arranged second transverse displacement means 23 also comprising support means 22, able to bear against the guide rib 7 to cause relative movement of the upper cross member 4 relative to the upper guide rail 6 transversely to the axial sliding direction II-II of the leaf 2. The structure and operation of the second transverse displacement means 23 are identical to those of the first transverse displacement means 21. The second means of transverse displacement 23 are thus more detailed on the Figures 2 and 3 .

La simplicité et la compacité des moyens de roulement 18 et des moyens de déplacement transversal 21 permettent de réduire les largeurs L4 et L5 des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5. En pratique, les largeurs L4 et L5 (prises selon une direction axiale I-I perpendiculaire au plan de l'ouvrant 2) sont inférieures ou égales à 60 mm.The simplicity and compactness of the rolling means 18 and the transverse displacement means 21 make it possible to reduce the widths L4 and L5 of the upper and lower crosspieces 5. In practice, the widths L4 and L5 (taken in an axial direction II perpendicular to the plane of opening 2) are less than or equal to 60 mm.

Sur la figure 1, on voit plus particulièrement que la nervure de roulement 9 est en matière plastique est recouverte d'un capot 27 en métal comportant une section transversale sensiblement en forme de U inversé avec deux branches latérales 27a et 27b s'étendant à l'écart d'une branche de liaison 27c.On the figure 1 it is more particularly seen that the rolling rib 9 is made of plastic is covered with a metal cap 27 having a substantially inverted U-shaped cross section with two lateral branches 27a and 27b extending away from a connecting branch 27c.

La branche de liaison 27c est destinée à supporter les moyens de roulement 18, comme il est mieux visible sur les figures 6 et 7. Sur la figure 7, on observe que la branche latérale 27b reçoit en appui les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal 21 lorsque la tige 24 est pivotée selon le mouvement illustré par la flèche F3 (figure 3).The connecting branch 27c is intended to support the rolling means 18, as it is better visible on the figures 6 and 7 . On the figure 7 it is observed that the lateral branch 27b bears in abutment the first transverse displacement means 21 when the rod 24 is pivoted according to the movement illustrated by the arrow F3 ( figure 3 ).

Le capot 27 métallique procure une bonne résistance à l'usure tant lors du roulement des moyens de roulement 18 sur la nervure de roulement 9 que lors de l'appui de la tige 24 des premiers moyens de déplacement transversal 21, notamment lorsque la nervure de roulement 9 est en matière plastique.The metal cover 27 provides good wear resistance both during the rolling of the rolling means 18 on the rolling rib 9 and when the rod 24 is supported by the first transverse displacement means 21, especially when the rib bearing 9 is plastic.

En alternative à une section transversale en U, le capot 27 peut présenter une section transversale sensiblement en forme de V inversé avec deux branches latérales 27a et 27b s'étendant à l'écart d'un sommet de liaison.As an alternative to a U-shaped cross section, the cover 27 may have a cross-section substantially in the form of an inverted V with two lateral branches 27a and 27b extending away from a connecting vertex.

On peut prévoir un capot métallique similaire sur la nervure de guidage 7, notamment lorsque celle-ci est en matière plastique, pour éviter sa dégradation par les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal 23. En alternative, une simple facette métallique rapportée et fixée sur la face de la nervure de guidage 7 sur laquelle prennent appui les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal 23 peut suffire.A similar metal cover can be provided on the guiding rib 7, in particular when the latter is made of plastic, to prevent its degradation by the second transverse displacement means 23. Alternatively, a simple metal facet attached and fixed on the face the guide rib 7 on which bear the second transverse displacement means 23 may suffice.

On voit plus particulièrement sur les figures 6 et 7 que la quatrième rainure longitudinale 17 est dimensionnée et conformée de façon à recevoir au moins en partie la nervure de guidage 7 (figure 8) lors d'un mouvement de translation de l'ouvrant 2 en direction du rail de guidage supérieur 6 (illustré par la flèche F5).We see more particularly the figures 6 and 7 that the fourth longitudinal groove 17 is dimensioned and shaped so as to receive at least part of the guide rib 7 ( figure 8 ) during a translational movement of the opening 2 in the direction of the upper guide rail 6 (illustrated by the arrow F5).

En pratique, la quatrième rainure longitudinale 17 a une largeur L17 légèrement supérieure à la largeur L7 de la nervure de guidage 7 (prises selon la direction axiale I-I, c'est-à-dire perpendiculairement au plan défini par les directions d'allongement des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5).In practice, the fourth longitudinal groove 17 has a width L17 slightly greater than the width L7 of the guide rib 7 (taken in the axial direction II, that is to say perpendicularly to the plane defined by the directions of elongation of the upper and lower crosspieces 4).

La profondeur de la quatrième rainure longitudinale 17 permet une pénétration de la nervure de guidage 7 selon une distance suffisante pour autoriser un soulèvement de l'ouvrant 2 à l'écart du rail de guidage inférieur 8 selon le mouvement illustré par la flèche F5 jusqu'à en extraire totalement la traverse inférieure 5 (figure 8). On peut alors pivoter l'ouvrant (selon un mouvement de rotation de la traverse inférieure 5 autour de la traverse supérieure 4 (illustré par la flèche F6) pour amener l'ouvrant 2 dans la position illustrée sur la figure 9. On peut ainsi procéder de façon simple et rapide au démontage de l'ouvrant 2, par exemple lors d'une opération de maintenance. Lors d'un tel démontage, il n'est nécessaire d'effectuer qu'un soulèvement de l'ouvrant 2 (flèche F5) puis un pivotement (flèche F6), sans intervenir sur les moyens de roulement 18 ou les moyens de déplacement transversal 21 et 23. La remise en place de l'ouvrant 2 se fait par une séquence inverse des opérations tout aussi simple et rapide, sans intervenir non plus sur les moyens de roulement 18 ou les moyens de déplacement transversal 21 et 23, si ce n'est pour positionner les moyens de roulement 18 sur le sommet de la nervure de roulement 9.The depth of the fourth longitudinal groove 17 allows penetration of the guide rib 7 at a distance sufficient to allow lifting of the opening 2 away from the lower guide rail 8 according to the movement illustrated by the arrow F5 to to completely extract the bottom rail 5 ( figure 8 ). The opening can then be rotated (in a rotational movement of the lower crossmember 5 around the upper crossmember 4 (illustrated by the arrow F6) to bring the opening 2 into the position shown in FIG. figure 9 . It is thus possible to proceed in a simple and rapid manner to the dismantling of the opening 2, for example during a maintenance operation. During such disassembly, it is necessary to perform only lifting of the opening 2 (arrow F5) and then pivoting (arrow F6), without interfering with the rolling means 18 or the transverse displacement means 21 and 23. The repositioning of the opening 2 is done by an inverse sequence of operations just as simple and fast, without intervening either on the rolling means 18 or the transverse displacement means 21 and 23, if it n is for positioning the rolling means 18 on the top of the rolling rib 9.

La figure 10 est une vue de face d'une fenêtre ou porte-fenêtre 28 obturant une ouverture d'un bâtiment. Cette fenêtre ou porte-fenêtre 28 peut présenter une longueur L28 comprise entre 2,40 mètres et 3 mètres (voir plus), soit des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5 de longueur comprise entre 1,20 mètres et 1,50 mètres (voire plus).The figure 10 is a front view of a window or French window 28 closing an opening of a building. This window or French window 28 can have a length L28 between 2.40 meters and 3 meters (see more), or upper 4 and lower 5 crosspieces of length between 1.20 meters and 1.50 meters (or more ).

Dans ce cas, il est important de bien comprimer les joints 10 à 13 sur toute la longueur des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5. Pour ce faire, on prévoit que les premiers moyens de déplacement transversal 21 comprennent plusieurs tiges 24 (dont les emplacements sont schématiquement illustrés sur la figure 10), chacune déplaçable par un galet respectif, lesdites tiges 24 étant distantes entre elles, selon la direction d'allongement de la traverse inférieure 5, d'une distance D1 comprise entre environ 600 mm et environ 1600 mm.In this case, it is important to compress the seals 10 to 13 over the entire length of the upper and lower crosspieces 5. To do this, it is expected that the first transverse displacement means 21 comprise several rods 24 (whose locations are schematically illustrated on the figure 10 ), each movable by a respective roller, said rods 24 being spaced apart, in the direction of elongation of the lower cross member 5, a distance D1 between about 600 mm and about 1600 mm.

De façon similaire, les deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal 23 comprennent plusieurs tiges 24 (dont les emplacements sont schématiquement illustrés sur la figure 10), chacune déplaçable par un galet respectif, lesdites tiges 24 étant distantes entre elles, selon la direction d'allongement de la traverse supérieure 4, d'une distance D2 comprise entre environ 1600 mm et environ 900 mm.Similarly, the second transverse displacement means 23 comprise several rods 24 (the locations of which are schematically illustrated on FIG. figure 10 ), each movable by a respective roller, said rods 24 being spaced apart, in the direction of elongation of the upper cross member 4, a distance D2 of between about 1600 mm and about 900 mm.

Dans le cas d'une traverse inférieure (ou supérieure) en matière plastique (telle que du PVC par exemple), la distance d'écartement entre deux tiges est avantageusement comprise entre environ 600 mm et environ 900 mm. Dans le cas d'une traverse inférieure (ou supérieure) en matière métallique (telle que de l'aluminium par exemple), la distance d'écartement entre deux tiges est avantageusement comprise entre environ 1000 mm et environ 1600 mm.In the case of a lower crossbar (or upper) plastic (such as PVC for example), the spacing distance between two rods is advantageously between about 600 mm and about 900 mm. In the case of a lower crossbar (or upper) of metal material (such as aluminum for example), the spacing distance between two rods is advantageously between about 1000 mm and about 1600 mm.

Toutes les tiges 24 étant embarquées sur l'ouvrant 2, et celle-ci coopérant par appui sur des nervures longitudinales respectives (nervure de guidage 7 et nervure de roulement 9) des rails de guidage supérieur 6 et inférieur 8, il ne se pose aucun problème de butée intempestive des premiers ou deuxièmes moyens de déplacement transversal 21 et 23 lors du coulissement de l'ouvrant 2 selon la direction axiale II-II.All the rods 24 being embarked on the opening 2, and the latter cooperating by bearing on respective longitudinal ribs (guide rib 7 and rolling rib 9) of the upper guide rails 6 and lower 8, it arises no problem of inadvertent abutment of the first or second transverse displacement means 21 and 23 during the sliding of the opening 2 in the axial direction II-II.

La pluralité de tiges 24 le long des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5 permet de limiter en outre l'éventuel cintrage que peuvent subir les traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5, par exemple par grand vent, pouvant mener à une décompression des joints 10 à 13 et donc à une entrée d'air dans le bâtiment.The plurality of rods 24 along the upper and lower crosspieces 4 and 4 further limits the possible bending that can be experienced by the upper 4 and lower 5 crosspieces, for example by high wind, which can lead to decompression of the joints 10 to 13 and therefore to an air intake in the building.

Pour encore mieux limiter le risque de cintrage des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5, il est également proposé, selon un autre aspect de l'invention, l'utilisation d'un ensemble 1 pour une fenêtre ou porte-fenêtre 28 comprenant un ouvrant 2 coulissant dans un dormant 3, dans lequel ensemble :

  • l'ouvrant 2 comprend une traverse supérieure 4 et une traverse inférieure 5,
  • le dormant 3 comprend :
    • un rail de guidage supérieur 6 comprenant une nervure de guidage 7 destinée à être reçue au moins en partie par emboîtement dans la traverse supérieure 4,
    • un rail de guidage inférieur 8 destiné à reposer sur le sol, ledit rail de guidage inférieur 8 comprenant une nervure de roulement 9,
  • des joints compressibles 10, 11, 12 et/ou 13 sont portés par l'un de la traverse supérieure 4 ou du rail de guidage supérieur 6 et par l'un de la traverse inférieure 5 ou du rail de guidage inférieur 8, et sont destinés à être compressés entre l'ouvrant 2 et le dormant 3 par un déplacement de l'ouvrant 2 transversalement à sa direction de coulissement II-II ;
lors de cette utilisation, le déplacement de l'ouvrant 2 transversalement à sa direction de coulissement II-II pour la compression des joints 10, 11, 12 et/ou 13 s'effectue par un mouvement de translation depuis l'extérieur du bâtiment EXT vers l'intérieur du bâtiment INT (illustré par la flèche F7 sur la figure 6).To further limit the risk of bending of the upper 4 and lower 5 crosspieces, it is also proposed, according to another aspect of the invention, the use of an assembly 1 for a window or French window 28 comprising an opening 2 sliding in a frame 3, in which together:
  • the opening 2 comprises an upper cross member 4 and a lower cross member 5,
  • the frame 3 comprises:
    • an upper guide rail 6 comprising a guide rib 7 intended to be received at least partly by interlocking in the upper rail 4,
    • a lower guide rail 8 for resting on the ground, said lower guide rail 8 comprising a rolling rib 9,
  • compressible joints 10, 11, 12 and / or 13 are carried by one of the upper cross member 4 or the upper guide rail 6 and one of the lower cross member 5 or the lower guide rail 8, and are intended to be compressed between the opening 2 and the frame 3 by a displacement of the opening 2 transversely to its sliding direction II-II;
during this use, the displacement of the opening 2 transversely to its sliding direction II-II for the compression of the seals 10, 11, 12 and / or 13 is effected by a translation movement from outside the building EXT towards the interior of the INT building (illustrated by the arrow F7 on the figure 6 ).

Ainsi, lorsque le vent souffle fort et appuie sur l'ouvrant 2 par une pression s'exerçant en direction de l'intérieur INT du bâtiment, tout fléchissement transversal des traverses supérieure 4 et inférieure 5 augmentera la compression du(des) joint(s) 10, 11, 12 et/ou 13 et donc l'étanchéité.Thus, when the wind blows strongly and presses the opening 2 by a pressure acting towards the interior INT of the building, any transverse deflection of the upper and lower crosspieces 5 will increase the compression of the seal (s). ) 10, 11, 12 and / or 13 and thus the seal.
