Definitions

  • the invention a device for attaching rolling shutters, relates to a device whose purpose is to provide attachment means between the first slat or upper slat of a slatted rolling shutter and the tubular rolling shaft of the same, which consists of a strap made up of several links and constitutes, at the same time, a means of security to prevent the rolling shutter from being lifted by pushing the slats from below and it only allows said lifting by rotating said shaft, due to the configuration of the gripping means of the same with the tubular shaft and the means of security that prevent said undue lifting of the rolling shutter.
  • the field of application of the present invention falls within the sector of the slatted rolling shutter manufacturing industry, especially focusing on the area of accessory elements for attaching the slats to the rolling shaft.
  • patent EP0684362 describes an automatic lock for a rolling shutter with a device which makes it possible to attach the winding shutter panel to the drive drum attached to the control element, ensuring locking of the panel when it is in a low position and the impossibility of raising it again by means of any external action.
  • Said fastening is carried out by using longitudinal grooves present in the tubular winding shaft, wherein attachment means, consisting of L-shaped blades, are inserted perpendicular to the longitudinal shaft of the tubular shaft, combined with locking means made up of tabs that, after the lateral movement to insert the blades into the grooves, preventing the exit upon immobilizing any movement.
  • the document FR2885943 discloses another device for attaching a lattice rolling shutter to a tube that comprises articulated links, which is based on two attachments consisting of L-shaped rods that are inserted in respective grooves of the tube, one of which is reversible, allowing the device to be attached to the tube since both are in opposite positions.
  • the solutions provided by said documents have drawbacks and/or aspects that can be improved, since, in the case of the first two solutions, wherein the attachment means consist of L-shaped parts that are inserted into grooves of the shaft, for them to pass through said grooves, there must be a clearance, which could cause wear or even failure; and in the third case, the drawback is that the system is not suitable for shaft cavities in the form of a groove.
  • the object of the present invention is, therefore, a device that solves said drawbacks and can be used for the attachment thereof to the shaft by means of grooves present in the same, since some manufacturers or shaft models cannot contemplate or allow the embodiment of another type of groove or cavity therein.
  • the object of present invention is a device for attaching rolling shutters according to claim 1.
  • the invention relates to a device for attaching rolling shutters, configured as an articulated strap, in order to fasten the slats of a rolling shutter to the grooves made in the tubular rolling shaft of the rolling shutter, and which comprises at least an initial link for the coupling thereof to the tubular shaft through gripping means to said grooves and a final link that is joined to the upper slat of the rolling shutter, the device comprising:
  • the invention relates to a device whose purpose is to provide attachment means between the set of slats of a rolling shutter and the tubular shaft in which it is rolled and, at the same time, means of security to prevent undue lifting of the rolled shutter pushed from below.
  • the device is formed by a strap composed of several links that are incorporated, in a varying number according to the width of each rolling shutter, between the upper slat and the tubular shaft, and it has a structural configuration having gripping means with the tubular shaft thereof, and means of security that prevent said undue lifting of the rolling shutter, which improve the existing solutions.
  • the initial link of the strap that forms said device comprises, as fixing means to the tubular shaft, a pair of push-buttons that, upon being operated or pushed, determine the movement of the clips from an initial coupling position, in which they pass through respective grooves of the tubular shaft, to an attachment position in which they move closer to each other, moving in parallel to the longitudinal shaft of the tubular shaft and towards the center of said link; a position in which the L-shaped ends of both clips prevent the exit thereof from said grooves, such that the strap remains fastened to the tubular shaft, without ruling out the possibility of additional fastening by means of riveting, although this is not necessary given the effectiveness of attaching the strap simply through the clips described.
  • the configuration of the aforementioned clips which as described in the previous explanation have an L-shape, preferably provides a thickness, or cross-sectional dimension, to the longitudinal shaft of the assembly that is sufficient enough to prevent the deformation of the bent ends and prevent the problem that other similar solutions have with the L-shaped elements, wherein they tend to open up, shifting from a right angle to an obtuse angle that ceases to function properly, with the risk that it will become loose and fall, creating clearance between the strap and the tubular shaft.
  • This is thus solved by the device of the present invention via the aforementioned thickness of the clips that, in the preferred embodiment, reaches approximately one-third of the length thereof.
  • said attachment remains secured and free of eventual wear by clearance thanks to the fact that the device further comprises additional tabs, perpendicular to the longitudinal shaft, which prevent the movement of the clips once moved to attachment position thereof, as well as the movement parallel to the shaft of the assembly.
  • the strap comprises, as means of security to prevent the undue lifting of the rolling shutter by pushing it from below, the incorporation of at least one locking element located between each link, specifically one between the initial link and the final link.
  • the locking elements are elastic, such that they return the parts to their position, since they tend to maintain the joints in the appropriate position for the adaptation thereof to the curve of the tubular shaft during rolling of the rolling shutter.
  • the locking elements preferably consist of a U-shaped metal element that acts as a spiral spring.
  • the device (1) in question which can be used to fasten the slats of a rolling shutter to the rolling tubular shaft (2) of the same through the grooves (21) made to it for said purpose is observed, such that it is configured in a known way as an articulated shaft formed by, at least, an initial link (11) that is joined to the tubular shaft (2) through gripping means to said grooves (21) for which it is provided, a final link (12) that is directly or indirectly joined to the upper slat of the rolling shutter, and optionally with an intermediate link (13) between the initial link (11) and the final link (12), as occurs in the example shown in the figures, also having means of security that prevent the rolling shutter from being lifted by pushing from the lower part thereof and without actuating the tubular shaft (2).
  • the device is differentiated based on the fact that it comprises, as gripping means of the initial link (11) to the grooves (21) of the tubular shaft (2), a pair of push-buttons (3) that, upon being operated, enter into respective hollows (4) of the body of said initial link (11), moving clips (5) towards the center of said initial link (11) in a longitudinal direction, in other words, in parallel to the longitudinal shaft (a) of the tubular shaft (2) and which coincides with the shaft of said link (11) when it is coupled to said shaft (2).
  • Said clips (5) consist of respective L-shaped parts, causing the movement of these clips (5) from an initial coupling position in which, upon positioning the initial link (11) on the tubular shaft (2), they pass through the grooves (21) made thereon in positions aligned and coinciding with the position of the clips (5), to an attachment position in which both clips (5) move towards each other, moving in parallel to the longitudinal shaft of the tubular shaft and towards the center of said link, such that the lower L-shaped bent ends (51) of both clips (5) that face each other lock together and prevent the exit thereof through the aforementioned grooves (21) upon rolling or unrolling of the rolling shutter in the tubular shaft (2).
  • Said clips (5) have a first surface (52) and a second surface (53) that is shorter than the first and that forms a 90° angle with said first surface, said second surface having the aforementioned lower bent end (51).
  • the push-buttons (3) have a lower protrusion (31) with an oblique wall (32) that comes in contact with and presses against the upper edge of the respective clips (5) housed in the aforementioned hollows (4), pushing them and causing them to move towards the side opposite to where said contact is made, in other words, towards the center of the body of the link (11). Both clips (5) move towards each other and in opposite directions in parallel to the shaft (a) of the tubular shaft (2).
  • both push-buttons (3), as well as clips (5) and hollows (4) are sized so that, once the push-buttons (3) are completely inserted and the clips (4) moved towards the center of the link (11), both elements remain locked together inside the hollow (4), such that the subsequent movement of the clips (5) is prevented, also providing a locking lip (33) at the end of the push-buttons (3), which is fastened in a projection (41) of the corresponding hollow (4) to maintain the operational position thereof.
  • the clips (5) in addition to the L-shape determined by the lower bent ends (51) thereof, provide a thickness, or cross-sectional dimension, to the longitudinal shaft (a) of the assembly that preferably reaches at least, approximately, one-third of the length thereof.
  • the initial link (11) of the device (1) further comprises additional locking tabs (6), perpendicular to the longitudinal shaft (a) of the assembly, except on the locking surface that is parallel to the shaft (a), and distributed on the edge of the hollows (4), such that they are placed on the clips (5), once moved to the attachment position thereof, which also work together by preventing the movement thereof.
  • the described gripping means of the initial link (11) to the grooves (21) of the tubular shaft (2), formed by the push-buttons (3) and clips (5) can be complemented by inserting rivets in the holes (42) made for the purpose of fixing said initial link (11) to the tubular shaft (2), preferably incorporated in the same hollows (4), under the part that makes up each push-button (3), which, in turn and also in a preferred way, is a collapsible part that is joined in an articulated way to the link body (11).
  • the device (1) is differentiated based on the fact that it comprises, as means of security to prevent lifting of the rolling shutter by pushing it from below, n-1 locking elements (7), n being the number of links present in the strap, inserted between the articulated joints (8) that fasten the different links (11, 12, 13) to each other, such that there is one locking element (7) between each link, and they form the articulated strap, limiting the maximum opening angle (b) of said joints (8).
  • Said locking elements (7) are preferably elastic and are arranged in such a way that they work by tending to maintain said angle of said joints (8) closed to be able to return the coupled links (11, 12, 13) to their position surrounding the tubular shaft (2) when the rolling shutter is rolled.
  • the elastic locking elements (7) consists of a U-shaped metal rod that acts as a spiral spring, which is incorporated by being tightly inserted into housings (9) provided for that purpose in the aforementioned articulated joints (8), between the initial link (11) and the intermediate link (13), as well as between the intermediate link (13) and the final link (12), wherein holes (91) have been provided to insert the respective ends (71) of said rods (7), such that they operate by pushing the two parts of each joint (8) in order to tend to close the angle (b) therebetween and limit the opening thereof.
  • these rods (7) is such that they begin to operate once an opening angle (b) of the articulated joint (8) between every two links is approximately 120°, producing a force that does not allow it to go beyond an angle opening of between 140° and 150°.
