Description

La présente invention concerne une installation de stockage de profilés métalliques d'ouvrants.The present invention relates to a storage facility for opening metal profiles.

Par ouvrants, on désigne les parties mobiles des fenêtres, portes fenêtres et portes vitrées, que ces ouvrants soient situés à l'intérieur ou à l'extérieur d'un bâtiment. Les profilés métalliques, en général en aluminium, sont destinés à former des cadres, par exemple carrés ou rectangulaires, dans lesquels sont maintenus les parties vitrées des ouvrants. Les dimensions des cadres, tant en termes de largeur, longueur que d'épaisseur sont variables, étant entendu qu'il existe des ouvrants à simple, double, triple ou quadruple vitrages voire plus, ce qui impacte sur l'épaisseur du cadre et donc sur les dimensions des profilés constitutifs de celui-ci.Opening means the movable parts of windows, doors and glazed doors, whether these openings are located inside or outside a building. The metal sections, usually made of aluminum, are intended to form frames, for example square or rectangular, in which the glazed portions of the openings are maintained. The dimensions of the frames, both in terms of width, length and thickness are variable, it being understood that there are openings to single, double, triple or quadruple glazing or more, which impacts on the thickness of the frame and therefore on the dimensions of the constituent sections of this one.

Les profilés utilisés sont, globalement, configurés en section transversale en U à fond plat. La largeur du profilé, donc la largeur du fond, dépend directement de l'épaisseur du cadre, donc du fait que celui-ci est destiné à maintenir un vitrage simple, double ou autre. Les ouvrants, de par leurs formes géométriques sont, à titre d'exemple, des parallélogrammes à angle droit. Pour réaliser les cadres on plie des profilés rectilignes d'une longueur pouvant atteindre six mètres, étant entendu que la largeur courante de ces profilés varie généralement de huit à trente millimètres.The profiles used are generally configured in flat-bottomed U-shaped cross-section. The width of the profile, so the width of the bottom, depends directly on the thickness of the frame, so that it is intended to maintain a single glazing, double or other. The openings, by their geometric shapes are, for example, parallelograms at right angles. To make the frames are folded rectilinear profiles of a length of up to six meters, it being understood that the current width of these profiles generally varies from eight to thirty millimeters.

Le pliage s'effectue en plusieurs zones définies du profilé qui correspondent aux dimensions, longueur ou largeur, du cadre fini. On connait des installations qui permettent de réaliser, à partir de profilés, des cadres pour ouvrants. De telles installations sont à même de réaliser par pliage plusieurs dizaines de cadres par heure, par exemple 140 cadres par heure. De plus, ces installations fonctionnent souvent plus de huit heures par jour, voire en continu. Compte tenu de leurs coûts, les installations sont adaptées, si besoin en changeant l'outillage, pour plier des profilés de différentes longueurs et/ou largeur. On connait par EP-A-3 075 462 une installation de pliage de profilés, à chaud, comprenant une zone de stockage des profilés avant pliage.The folding takes place in several defined zones of the profile which correspond to the dimensions, length or width, of the finished frame. Installations are known that make it possible to produce, from profiles, frames for openings. Such installations are capable of folding several dozens of frames per hour, for example 140 frames per hour. In addition, these facilities often operate more than eight hours a day, or even continuously. Given their costs, the facilities are adapted, if necessary by changing the tooling, to bend profiles of different lengths and / or width. We know by EP-A-3,075,462 a profile bending installation, hot, comprising a section of the profiles storage area before folding.

Dans la mesure où ces installations sont automatisées, les cadences sont donc maintenues à un niveau élevé pendant tout le cycle de production. Afin de limiter autant que faire se peut les arrêts de l'installation, il est important d'assurer un approvisionnement non seulement régulier et en quantité suffisante en profilés pour toute la durée du cycle de production mais également en offrant la possibilité d'alimenter l'installation en plusieurs tailles de profilés, cela sans interrompre, ou du moins à minima, le cycle de production. Il est donc important de disposer d'une installation de stockage de profilés à même de répondre à ces contraintes. En particulier, l'installation de stockage doit être reliée à l'installation de pliage. Elle doit pouvoir fournir cette dernière en profilés de divers types, à une cadence et dans une position adaptées aux cycles de pliage.Since these installations are automated, the rates are thus maintained at a high level throughout the production cycle. In order to limit as much as possible the shutdowns of the installation, it is important to ensure not only a regular and sufficient supply of profiles for the entire production cycle but also by offering the possibility of supplying power to the system. installation in several sizes of profiles, without interrupting, or at least at least, the production cycle. It is therefore important to have a profile storage facility capable of meeting these constraints. In particular, the storage facility must be connected to the folding plant. It must be able to provide the latter in profiles of various types, at a rate and in a position adapted to the folding cycles.

C'est à ces objectifs qu'entend plus particulièrement répondre l'invention en proposant une installation d'alimentation et de stockage de profilés métalliques d'ouvrants permettant de fournir différentes dimensions et épaisseurs de profilés, sans arrêt de l'alimentation de l'installation de pliage de profilés, d'un entretien aisé et adapté pour utiliser les différents types de profilés existant.It is to these objectives that the invention intends to respond more particularly by proposing an installation for supplying and storing metal profiles of openings that make it possible to provide different dimensions and thicknesses of profiles, without stopping the supply of the power supply. profile bending installation, easy maintenance and adapted to use the different types of existing profiles.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet Installation de stockage de profilés métalliques d'ouvrants comprenant au moins un moyen de stockage des profilés, un moyen de liaison entre l'installation de stockage et une installation de pliage des profilés, un moyen de déplacement des profilés depuis l'installation de stockage en direction de l'installation de pliage, le moyen de stockage comporte au moins un module de stockage d'un nombre défini de profilés en une position donnée, ledit module étant maintenu de manière amovible dans une partie du moyen de stockage, caractérisée en ce que chaque module de stockage comprend une plaque d'appui des profilés, une cornière en L définissant le fond du module et au moins une patte de maintien des profilés en appui contre la plaque et en ce que le moyen de déplacement est adapté pour déplacer sélectivement ledit module de stockage.To this end, the object of the invention is to provide a storage facility for opening metal profiles comprising at least one means for storing the profiles, a connection means between the storage facility and a folding installation for the profiles, a means of moving the profiles from the storage facility to the folding plant, the storage means comprises at least one storage module of a defined number of profiles in a given position, said module being held in a removable manner in a part of the storage means, characterized in that each storage module comprises a support plate of the profiles, an L-shaped bracket defining the bottom of the module and at least one bracket holding the profiles in abutment against the plate and in that the moving means is adapted to selectively move said storage module.

Grâce à l'invention, l'installation d'alimentation et de stockage peut recevoir plusieurs modules de stockage recevant différents profilés. Ainsi, l'installation peut stocker côte à côte des modules de stockage correspondant chacun à un type défini de profilés. Le moyen de déplacement permet, sélectivement, de déplacer l'un ou l'autre module de stockage donc de déplacer pour pliage les profilés d'un type déterminé. L'invention permet de stocker dans un même endroit divers types de profilés et d'assurer l'alimentation en profilés d'une installation de pliage, quel que soit le type de profilés à plier.Thanks to the invention, the power supply and storage installation can receive several storage modules receiving different profiles. Thus, the installation can store side by side storage modules each corresponding to a defined type of profiles. The displacement means selectively allows one or the other storage module to be moved, thus displacing the profiles of a given type for folding. The invention makes it possible to store in one place various types of profiles and to supply the supply of profiles of a folding installation, whatever the type of profiles to be folded.

La figure 1 illustre une installation de stockage 1 de profilés métalliques d'ouvrants. Ici, les profilés, connus en soi, ne sont pas illustrés pour faciliter la lecture. Les profilés stockés dans l'installation 1 sont connus en soi. Il s'agit de profilés métalliques, typiquement en aluminium ou en acier inoxydable, à section transversale en U, d'une longueur variant généralement de 3 m à 6 m, d'une largeur compris entre 6 mm et 30 mm pour une hauteur allant de 5 mm à 10 mm. En d'autres termes, l'installation 1 est à même de stocker l'ensemble des profilés couramment rencontrés pour former des cadres d'ouvrants.The figure 1 illustrates a storage facility 1 of opening metal profiles. Here, the profiles, known per se, are not illustrated for ease of reading. The profiles stored in the installation 1 are known per se. These are metal profiles, typically aluminum or stainless steel, with a U-shaped cross-section, generally ranging in length from 3 m to 6 m, with a width of between 6 mm and 30 mm for a height ranging from from 5 mm to 10 mm. In other words, the installation 1 is able to store all the profiles commonly encountered to form openings frames.

L'installation de stockage 1 est également dénommé magasin. Ce terme sera préférentiellement utilisé par la suite. L'installation 1 comprend un châssis 2, formé d'éléments tubulaires tels que des barres et tubes métalliques. Le châssis 2 est de type ajouré, aucun capot ou plaque ne définissant un volume fermé. De la sorte, le châssis 2 est léger, d'une construction et d'une maintenance aisées. En cas de besoin, il peut être modifié par ajout d'éléments tubulaires et/ou déplacer. Le châssis 2 est globalement en forme de parallélépipède rectangle. Il reçoit des modules de stockage 3 de profilés sur plusieurs niveaux. En partie haute du magasin 1, en regardant la figure 1, le châssis 2 est équipé d'un module de déplacement 4. Ce module 4, particulièrement visible à la figure 3, sera décrit ultérieurement. Il est monté sur un rail 5 permettant le déplacement de chaque module 3 de stockage de profilés d'un point de l'installation 1 jusqu'à la face avant 6 de l'installation 1. A partir de la face avant 6 de l'installation 1, les modules 3, donc les profilés, sont acheminés en direction d'une installation de pliage, non illustrée.The storage facility 1 is also referred to as a store. This term will be preferentially used later. The installation 1 comprises a frame 2, formed of tubular elements such as bars and metal tubes. The frame 2 is perforated type, no hood or plate defining a closed volume. In this way, the frame 2 is lightweight, easy construction and maintenance. If necessary, it can be modified by adding tubular elements and / or moving. The frame 2 is generally in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped. It receives storage modules 3 of profiles on several levels. In the upper part of store 1, looking at the figure 1 , the chassis 2 is equipped with a displacement module 4. This module 4, particularly visible at the figure 3 , will be described later. It is mounted on a rail 5 allowing the displacement of each module 3 for storing profiles from a point of the installation 1 to the front face 6 of the installation 1. From the front face 6 of the installation 1, the modules 3, so the profiles, are routed to a folding installation, not shown.

L'acheminement des modules de stockage 3, également dénommés cassettes, est effectué par un organe d'acheminement, non illustré et connu en soi. Cet organe d'acheminement comprend un rail de guidage et de déplacement sur lequel se déplace le module 3 sous l'action, par exemple, de courroies et/ou de galets. On alimente de la sorte une installation de pliage en modules 3 regroupant un nombre déterminé par module de profilés d'un type donné et dans une position prédéfinie permettant une utilisation immédiate et en continu dans l'installation de pliage.The routing of the storage modules 3, also called cassettes, is performed by a routing member, not shown and known per se. This routing member comprises a guide and displacement rail on which the module 3 moves under the action, for example, of belts and / or rollers. In this way, a modular bending installation 3 is provided that groups together a determined number of profile modules of a given type and in a predefined position allowing immediate and continuous use in the folding installation.

Un module de stockage 3 conforme à un mode de réalisation de l'invention est maintenant décrit en référence à la figure 2. Par la suite, le terme cassette sera également employé pour désigner un module de stockage 3.A storage module 3 according to one embodiment of the invention is now described with reference to the figure 2 . Subsequently, the term cassette will also be used to designate a storage module 3.

Le module 3 comprend un cadre 60 assurant le maintien de profilés en au moins une rangée. Avantageusement, il est possible d'empiler des profilés, par rangée, sur une hauteur d'environ 400 mm par module 3. On conçoit que les capacités des modules de stockage 3 sont adaptées aux besoins en profilés et/ou au dimensionnement de l'installation. Le cadre 60 est formé d'une plaque 7 d'appui des profilés. La plaque 7, ici rectangulaire, occupe pratiquement toute la longueur L du module 3. La plaque 7 est fixée, par un des grands côtés, à une cornière 8 définissant le fond de la cassette 3. La cornière 8 est configurée en L. Sur une branche de la cornière 8 qui définit le fond de la cassette 3, donc la branche opposée à celle reliée à la plaque 7, au moins une patte de maintien 9 des profilés en place dans le module 3 est disposée. Ici, le module 3 illustré comporte quatre pattes 9 régulièrement réparties selon la longueur L du module. Les pattes 9 et la plaque 7 sont parallèles. Les pattes 9 sont ajourées, avec des découpes 10 verticales permettant d'alléger l'ensemble. Les extrémités 11, 12 de la cassette 3 qui correspondent aux petits côtés du module sont adaptées pour coopérer avec les extrémités 12, 11 d'une autre cassette 3. Ainsi, on peut déplacer les modules ou casettes 3 et les introduire dans une installation de pliage sans qu'il y ait d'espace entre eux, et donc avec un espace minimal avec les profilés. Typiquement, au niveau de l'extrémité 11 située à gauche en regardant la figure 2, la plaque 7 se prolonge au-delà de la cornière 8. L'extrémité libre 13 de la plaque 7 est pliée à angle droit en direction de la plaque de maintien 9 pour former une butée lors du chargement du module 3 en profilés, étant entendu qu'un tel chargement peut s'effectuer manuellement ou de manière automatisée. L'extrémité 12 du module 3 opposée à l'extrémité 11 est formée par un prolongement de la cornière 8 au-delà de la plaque 7.The module 3 comprises a frame 60 ensuring the maintenance of profiles in at least one row. Advantageously, it is possible to stack profiles, by row, to a height of about 400 mm per module 3. It is understood that the capacity of the storage modules 3 are adapted to the profile requirements and / or the dimensioning of the installation. The frame 60 is formed of a plate 7 supporting the profiles. The plate 7, here rectangular, occupies substantially the entire length L of the module 3. The plate 7 is fixed, by one of the long sides, to an angle 8 defining the bottom of the cassette 3. The angle 8 is configured in L. On a branch of the bracket 8 which defines the bottom of the cassette 3, thus the opposite branch to that connected to the plate 7, at least one holding lug 9 of the profiles in place in the module 3 is disposed. Here, the illustrated module 3 comprises four tabs 9 regularly distributed along the length L of the module. The tabs 9 and the plate 7 are parallel. The legs 9 are openwork, with vertical cutouts 10 to lighten the assembly. The ends 11, 12 of the cassette 3 which correspond to the short sides of the module are adapted to cooperate with the ends 12, 11 of another cassette 3. Thus, it is possible to move the modules or casters 3 and introduce them into an installation of folding without any space between them, and therefore with minimal space with the profiles. Typically, at the end 11 on the left looking at the figure 2 , the plate 7 extends beyond the angle 8. The free end 13 of the plate 7 is folded at a right angle towards the plate of 9 to form a stop when loading the module 3 in profiles, it being understood that such loading can be done manually or automatically. The end 12 of the module 3 opposite the end 11 is formed by an extension of the angle 8 beyond the plate 7.

En partie inférieure de la cassette 3, donc sur la face 14 de la cornière 8 opposée à la face 15 sur laquelle les profilés sont en appui, des organes de fixation temporaires 16 sont prévus. Les organes 16 comportent deux reliefs courbes 17 en regard l'un de l'autre et définissant entre eux un moyen de serrage. Ici les reliefs 17, ou crochets, sont immobiles. En variante, ils sont montés pivotant afin de définir une mâchoire de serrage réglable. Les organes de fixation 16 fonctionnent comme des clips de serrage. Ils sont positionnés sensiblement à l'aplomb des pattes 9. En variante non illustrée, ils sont disposés ailleurs. Dans tous les cas, le nombre et la position des organes de fixation 16 sont prévus pour assurer le maintien en position de la cassette 3 sur le châssis 2.In the lower part of the cassette 3, so on the face 14 of the bracket 8 opposite the face 15 on which the profiles are supported, temporary fixing members 16 are provided. The members 16 comprise two curved reliefs 17 facing one another and defining between them a clamping means. Here the reliefs 17, or hooks, are immobile. Alternatively, they are pivotally mounted to define an adjustable clamping jaw. The fasteners 16 function as clamping clips. They are positioned substantially perpendicular to the legs 9. As a variant not shown, they are arranged elsewhere. In all cases, the number and position of the fasteners 16 are provided to maintain the position of the cassette 3 on the chassis 2.

Comme cela ressort de la figure 3, les cassettes 3 sont positionnées dans le châssis 2 parallèlement les unes avec les autres, les organes de fixation 16 étant en prise, par les reliefs 17, sur des rails 18 parallèles entre eux et orientés selon la plus grande dimension L1 de l'installation. Les rails 18 définissent un moyen de stockage des profilés dans l'installation 1. On range verticalement, en regardant la figure 3, les modules 3 sur les rails 18 de l'installation de stockage 1. On positionne ainsi dans un minimum d'espace un maximum de modules de stockage 3, donc de profilés.As is apparent from the figure 3 , the cassettes 3 are positioned in the frame 2 parallel to each other, the fasteners 16 being engaged by the reliefs 17, on rails 18 parallel to each other and oriented along the largest dimension L1 of the installation . The rails 18 define a means for storing the profiles in the installation 1. Place it vertically, looking at the figure 3 , the modules 3 on the rails 18 of the storage facility 1. In this way, a maximum of storage modules 3 and therefore of profiles are positioned in a minimum of space.

La figure 3 illustre également un mode de réalisation d'un module de déplacement 19. Ici, un seul module 19 est prévu dans l'installation. En variante non illustrée, le nombre de modules de déplacement est supérieur à un. Le module 19 est monté mobile selon au moins une direction illustrée par la double flèche F. En l'espèce, le module 19 est mobile selon la largeur L2 de l'installation. En variante, il est également mobile selon la longueur L1 de l'installation et/ou selon la hauteur de cette dernière. Un tel déplacement est illustré par la double flèche F1 à la figure 1.The figure 3 also illustrates an embodiment of a displacement module 19. Here, only one module 19 is provided in the installation. In a variant that is not illustrated, the number of displacement modules is greater than one. The module 19 is mounted mobile in at least one direction illustrated by the double arrow F. In this case, the module 19 is movable along the width L2 of the installation. Alternatively, it is also movable along the length L1 of the installation and / or according to the height of the latter. Such a displacement is illustrated by the double arrow F1 at the figure 1 .

Le module 19 est formé d'au moins deux organes de préhension 20, avantageusement quatre organes de préhension 20 comme cela ressort de la figure 4. Les organes de préhension 20 sont régulièrement répartis sur la longueur du module 19 de sorte à assurer une prise équilibrée d'une cassette 3. De ce fait, la distance maximale entre les organes de préhension 20 les plus éloignés est sensiblement égale à la longueur de la cassette 3, comme cela apparait à la figure 4. Le module 19 est mobile en translation sur au moins deux rails 21 disposés dans l'installation de sorte à assurer le déplacement du module 19 sur toute la largeur L2 de l'installation afin de pouvoir prendre et déplacer n'importe quelle cassette 3.The module 19 is formed of at least two gripping members 20, advantageously four gripping members 20 as is apparent from the figure 4 . The gripping members 20 are regularly distributed over the length of the module 19 so as to ensure a balanced grip of a cassette 3. As a result, the maximum distance between the most distant gripping members 20 is substantially equal to the length of the cassette 3, as it appears in figure 4 . The module 19 is movable in translation on at least two rails 21 arranged in the installation so as to ensure the displacement of the module 19 over the entire width L2 of the installation in order to take and move any cassette 3.

Pour effectuer cette manoeuvre, le module 19 comporte au moins un organe moteur 22 assurant non seulement le déplacement du module de déplacement 19 le long des rails 21 mais également le pivotement de l'organe de préhension 20 le long d'un arbre 23. Il est ainsi possible de faire pivoter l'organe de préhension d'un angle globalement compris entre 0° et 45° par rapport à la verticale.To perform this operation, the module 19 comprises at least one motor member 22 ensuring not only the displacement of the displacement module 19 along the rails 21 but also the pivoting of the gripping member 20 along a shaft 23. It it is thus possible to rotate the gripping member by an angle generally between 0 ° and 45 ° relative to the vertical.

L'organe de préhension 20 comprend une plaque d'appui 24, un bras 25 mobile selon une direction illustrée par la double flèche F25. Cette direction est parallèle à la face principale 26 de la plaque 24. L'organe de préhension 20 comprend un ergot 27 de dimensions adaptées pour bloquer une cassette 3 en appui contre la plaque 24. Pour cela, l'ergot 27 vient en prise dans un logement 28 formé dans la cassette 3, situé sensiblement en face des pattes 9. L'ergot 27 est solidaire du corps principal 29 de l'organe de préhension 20. Le corps 29 a globalement une forme en L, une des branches étant définie par la plaque 24, l'autre branche 30 étant perpendiculaire à la plaque 24 et équipée de l'ergot 27.The gripping member 20 comprises a support plate 24, an arm 25 movable in a direction illustrated by the double arrow F25. This direction is parallel to the main face 26 of the plate 24. The gripping member 20 comprises a lug 27 of dimensions adapted to block a cassette 3 bearing against the plate 24. For this, the lug 27 engages in a housing 28 formed in the cassette 3, situated substantially in front of the lugs 9. The lug 27 is integral with the main body 29 of the gripping member 20. The body 29 generally has an L shape, one of the branches being defined by the plate 24, the other leg 30 being perpendicular to the plate 24 and equipped with the pin 27.

Un doigt, non visible, mobile en translation est prévu sur l'extrémité inférieure du bras 25, en regardant la figure 3, située au plus près de la cassette 3. Ce doigt est adapté pour se loger de manière amovible dans une lumière, non visible, ménagée en partie basse de la cassette 3.A finger, not visible, movable in translation is provided on the lower end of the arm 25, looking at the figure 3 , located closer to the cassette 3. This finger is adapted to be housed removably in a light, not visible, formed in the lower part of the cassette 3.

On note, à la figure 3, que lors du déplacement du module 19, l'organe 20 et la plaque 24 avec la cassette 3 en appui contre la plaque 24 sont inclinés. Pour prendre une cassette 3, on positionne l'organe de préhension 20 à la verticale de la cassette 3 de sorte que le bras 25 soit positionné en arrière de la face 31 de la plaque 7 de la cassette 3. L'arbre 25 descend, selon F25, jusqu'au niveau du rail 18. En cette position, le doigt situé à l'extrémité du bras 25 se déplace, selon une direction perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal du bras 25, en direction de la lumière ménagée dans la cassette 3 et s'insère dans celle-ci. Ainsi, lorsque le bras 25 remonte en direction des rails 21, donc vers le haut de l'installation en référence aux figures 1 et 3, il entraine avec lui la cassette 3. Cette dernière est alors désolidarisée du rail 18, les organes de fixation 16 n'étant plus en prise avec le rail 18. La cassette 3 vient alors en butée contre la branche 30 du corps 29 de l'organe de préhension 20. L'ergot 27 est mis en position dans le logement 28 et complète le maintien en position de la cassette 3 par l'organe de préhension 20. Il est alors possible d'incliner l'organe 20 et de déplacer la cassette 3 au niveau de la face avant 6 de l'installation 1 afin d'alimenter en profilés une installation de pliage.We note, at the figure 3 , that during the displacement of the module 19, the member 20 and the plate 24 with the cassette 3 bearing against the plate 24 are inclined. To take a cassette 3, the gripping member 20 is positioned vertically of the cassette 3 so that the arm 25 is positioned behind the face 31 of the plate 7 of the cassette 3. The shaft 25 descends, according to F25, to the level of the rail 18. In this position, the finger located at the end of the arm 25 moves in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the arm 25, direction of the light in the cassette 3 and fits into it. Thus, when the arm 25 rises in the direction of the rails 21, so towards the top of the installation with reference to the figures 1 and 3 it drives with it the cassette 3. The latter is then disengaged from the rail 18, the fasteners 16 no longer being engaged with the rail 18. The cassette 3 then abuts against the leg 30 of the body 29 of the gripping member 20. The lug 27 is placed in position in the housing 28 and completes the holding in position of the cassette 3 by the gripping member 20. It is then possible to tilt the member 20 and move the cassette 3 at the front face 6 of the installation 1 to feed profiles a folding installation.
