Definitions
- the present invention relates to a closure system for a leaf of a window or door, in particular a closure system that is configured as a "flush" handle system.
- Leaves for windows or doors are currently equipped with closure systems of the rotary handle type, in which the lowering movement of the handle determines the release of the opening of the leaf.
- the handle is directly mounted on the lock, generally by means of a pin with a polygonal (square) section of the handle that is inserted into a square hole in the lock.
- Such pin-hole coupling determines at the same time both the support of the handle and the transmission to the lock of the rotary movement impressed on the handle.
- closure systems inextricably connected to the rotary movement, have minimal dimensions determined by the dimension of the handle, measured away from the main surface of the leaf. Such dimensions cannot be reduced beyond a physical limit imposed by the fact the handle must be able to be grasped conveniently and safely.

- the lateral plate 13 preferably has a peripheral profile counter-shaped to the lateral opening 140 and preferably quadrangular and has a configuration such as to be substantially flush with the largest surface 150 of the leaf 100 in a mounting configuration on the leaf 100.
- the lateral plate 13 can be stably and reversibly fixed to the lock-body 2 (when the latter is inserted in the containing seat 110) and/or to the leaf 100.
- the lateral plate 13 is stably fixed to the lock-body 2 through threaded members 14.
- both the lateral plates 13 can be simultaneously fixed, in particular by appropriately choosing the length of the threaded members 14.
- the lateral plate 13 has a perimeter frame 15 counter-shaped to the lateral opening 140 and defining a through opening 14 on which the command member 12 is mounted.
- the command member 12 faces a corresponding lateral portion of the lock-body 2 so as to be able to act on the manoeuvring element 8.
- the command member 12 has an engagement portion configured to intercept the corresponding manoeuvring element 8 so as to draw in movement the closing bar 5 at least from the extracted position to the retracted position.
- the engagement portion 17 preferably comprises a wall arranged on a rear zone of the command member 12, opposite a normally visible portion of the command member 12.
- the command member 12 is plate-shaped lying perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the manoeuvring elements 8, i.e. parallel to the largest surface 150 of the leaf 100. In this way it is possible to contain the dimensions of the command member 12 in the transversal direction to the leaf 100.
- the command member 12 is mounted on the lateral plate 13 and in particular on the perimeter frame 15, so as to have at least one movement component along the movement direction of the closing bar 5.
- the command member 12 is in the form of a slider that slides along a translation direction parallel to the translation direction of the closing bar 5, while in the embodiment of figures 13-16 the command member 12 is in the form of a lever (plate-shaped) hinged in an eccentric portion with respect to the corresponding pin 8, and in particular a hinging portion arranged above the pin 8.

- each manoeuvring element 8 or pin engages with the corresponding command member 12 in light of what has been described. It therefore follows, according to a particularly advantageous aspect of the invention, that the command member 12 acts directly on each manoeuvring element 8, i.e. through direct contact without the interposition of further elements (levers, kinematic mechanisms, returns or the like).
- command member 12 (and in particular the lateral plate 13) is applied or applicable to the leaf 100 and/or to the lock-body 2 exclusively through fastening means (threaded members 14) that is distinct with respect to an operating coupling between the command member 12 and the manoeuvring element 8.
- the lateral plate 13 has an extension such as to cover the mentioned opening 11 for a cylinder in a mounting configuration of the lateral plate 13 on the leaf 100.
- the lateral plate 13 can receive in application at least one removable covering element 18 arranged in such a position as to superpose the mentioned opening 11 for the cylinder.
- the covering element 18, being plate-shaped, can be conformed in different ways so that it is possible to select the most suitable covering element as a function of the specific requirements.
- figure 5 illustrates four embodiments of the covering element 18, and in particular (from the top to the bottom in figure 5 ) with corresponding opening for the cylinder (in the event of using a cylinder, according to figure 8 ), with a simple vertical slit (key), with opening/closing identification (application on a leaf for a bathroom) and without any opening (in the latter case if no cylinder is used, therefore for simply covering the view of the opening 11 below).
- the mentioned covering elements 18 can also have the function of covering the view of the mentioned threaded members 14 for the fastening of the lateral plates 13.
- Figures 17-21 illustrate a second embodiment, not being part of the presently claimed invention, of the closure system 1, which differs from the embodiment of figures 1-16 due to the fact that the manoeuvring elements 8 or pins are not applied to the closing bar 5 but to the command member 12, and interact with a corresponding shoulder or with a corresponding seat of the closing bar 5 for drawing in translation the closing bar 5 following the manual activation of the command member 12.
- Figures 22-24 illustrate further embodiments, compatible with the embodiments of figures 1-21 but in which the extension of the lateral plates 13 is reduced, in particular it is not such as to cover the opening 11 for a cylinder of the lock-body 2 or in the event that the lock-body 2 does not have the opening 11 for a cylinder.
- the adoption of a separate washer 19 may be envisaged ( figure 22 ) for access to the cylinder, or a hole 160 may be provided on the leaf 100 for a cross key ( figure 22 ) or there may be no additional opening aside from the lateral opening to which the lateral plate 13 is applied ( figure 24 ).
- the present invention can be applied by retrofitting also on existing windows or doors or closure systems.
- the modification to the lock-body is made for providing the closing bar with a manoeuvring seat inside which a corresponding pin of the command body of the lateral plate is intended to be engaged.
- the present invention achieves the proposed objects, overcoming the disadvantages complained of in the known art.
- the closure system according to the invention enables the opening of the lock of a leaf to be performed simply and effectively through a direct movement on the closing bar of the lock and in particular through a command lever arranged substantially flush with the leaf. This therefore results in distinctly reduced dimensions.
- the invention can also be applied relatively simply also to existing closure systems.

figures 1-16 , to a first embodiment of a closure system for a leaf of a window or door according to the present invention. - The
system 1 comprises a lock-body 2 applicable to aleaf 100 of a window or door (only one part of which can be seen in the figures), in particular inside a respective containingseat 110 accessible at least through afront opening 120, arranged on afront edge 130 of theleaf 100 to enable an insertion of the lock-body 2 into the containingseat 110, and by at least onelateral opening 140 arranged on alarger surface 150 of theleaf 100, as can be seen infigure 3 . - The following description will refer to a
leaf 100 having two opposinglateral openings 140 facing the same containingseat 110, however according to embodiments not illustrated it is possible to envisage only onelateral opening 110, in particular for windows and doors that can be activated or accessed from one side only. - In accordance with a general substantially well-known conformation, the lock-
body 2 has a containingshell 3 and afront panel 4 fixed to the containingshell 3 and defining a front abutment of the lock-body 2 on thefront wall 130 of theleaf 100. - The containing
shell 3 can be advantageously made of two half-shells stably fixed to each other, for example to facilitate the assembly operations of the lock-body 2. - A
closing bar 5, or "spring latch" is associated with the lock-body 2, movable between an at least partially extracted configuration from the lock-body 2 and a retracted configuration in the lock-body 2 (the latter visible infigure 1 ). Such movement of theclosing bar 5 is preferably a translation along a rectilinear direction and in particular horizontal. - The
closing bar 5 can be made in any form as long as it is able to perform the known function of locking and unlocking theleaf 100 during opening. In the embodiment illustrated, theclosing bar 5 has a rectangular cross section oriented vertically. - Advantageously, the
closing bar 5 has on its opposing lateral surfaces respective receivingportions 6 provided with athrough hole 7. Such receivingportions 6, in the quantity of one per side, are intended for the application of respective manoeuvring elements 8 (in the form of cylindrical or different shaped pins), preferably by means of a single threaded element 9 (figure 2 ) that engages both themanoeuvring elements 8 so as to have a central portion thereof inserted into the through hole 7 (figures 4A-4C ). Preferably, at least one of thepins 8 is internally threaded and the threadedelement 9 has a threaded stem in at least one of its ends opposite the head so as to be screwed into thepin 8 opposite the one in which the head of the threadedelement 9 is engaged. - It follows that each
manoeuvring element 8, or pin, is directly applied to theclosing bar 5 fixed thereto so as to be integral therewith. - On each side corresponding to the
receiving portions 6, the lock-body 2 (and in particular the containing shell 3) hasrespective slots 10 having an elongate shape along a horizontal direction or however parallel to the movement direction of theclosing bar 5, inside which a respectivereceiving portion 6 and/or a respectivemanoeuvring element 8 is slidably arranged so that the extension of the sliding movement of thereceiving portion 6 and/or of themanoeuvring element 8 in theslot 10 determines (or at least includes) the maximum limit of the movement of theclosing bar 5 between the extracted and retracted positions. - Preferably, the
closing bar 5 is subjected to an opposing element (not illustrated) configured to maintain theclosing bar 5 pressed towards the extracted position. In this way, an automatic closure of the lock can take place. - In the specific embodiment of
figures 1-16 theslot 10 receives inside it a respective receivingportion 6 having a cylindrical conformation like a bushing, for example defined by a protrusion of theclosing bar 5 or by another component fixed thereto, while themanoeuvring element 8 applied to thereceiving portion 6 is arranged in an axially external position to theslot 10. However, in accordance with embodiments not illustrated, thereceiving portion 6 could have a shorter or null length so as not to be inserted into theslot 10 and in that case themanoeuvring element 8 would be slidably inserted into theslot 10 itself. - The length of the
manoeuvring elements 8 is advantageously selected as a function of the thickness of theleaf 100, in particular as the thickness of the leaf increasesmanoeuvring elements 8 with a longer axial length need to be used. - The lock-
body 2 can also have anopening 11 for a cylinder, made in the containingshell 3 and suitable for the insertion (transversal with respect to the movement direction of the closing bar 5) of a cylinder, for example of the standard type, in the case of a lock that can be opened with a key. Thesystem 1 according to the invention further comprises, for eachmanoeuvring element 8, arespective command member 12 that can be manually activated (by grasping or direct thrust) by a user and kinematically connected or connectable to theclosing bar 5 for placing theclosing bar 5 in movement. - In particular, the
command member 12 is manually subjectable to a thrust or traction force in order to assume at least two operating positions, corresponding to the extracted configuration and the retracted configuration of theclosing bar 5, respectively. - In more detail, a
lateral plate 13 can be applied to eachlateral opening 140, on which therespective command member 12 is arranged or mounted. - The
lateral plate 13 preferably has a peripheral profile counter-shaped to thelateral opening 140 and preferably quadrangular and has a configuration such as to be substantially flush with thelargest surface 150 of theleaf 100 in a mounting configuration on theleaf 100. - The
lateral plate 13 can be stably and reversibly fixed to the lock-body 2 (when the latter is inserted in the containing seat 110) and/or to theleaf 100. In the preferred and illustrated embodiment (figures 5 and6 ), thelateral plate 13 is stably fixed to the lock-body 2 through threadedmembers 14. Preferably, with the same threadedmembers 14 both thelateral plates 13 can be simultaneously fixed, in particular by appropriately choosing the length of the threadedmembers 14. - As can be seen in detail in
figures 5-8 , thelateral plate 13 has aperimeter frame 15 counter-shaped to thelateral opening 140 and defining a throughopening 14 on which thecommand member 12 is mounted. - In this way, once the
plate 13 is applied to theleaf 100, thecommand member 12 faces a corresponding lateral portion of the lock-body 2 so as to be able to act on themanoeuvring element 8. - Entering into more detail, the
command member 12 has an engagement portion configured to intercept thecorresponding manoeuvring element 8 so as to draw in movement theclosing bar 5 at least from the extracted position to the retracted position. - The
engagement portion 17 preferably comprises a wall arranged on a rear zone of thecommand member 12, opposite a normally visible portion of thecommand member 12. - As can be seen in
figures 5-18 , thecommand member 12 is plate-shaped lying perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of themanoeuvring elements 8, i.e. parallel to thelargest surface 150 of theleaf 100. In this way it is possible to contain the dimensions of thecommand member 12 in the transversal direction to theleaf 100. - Advantageously, the
command member 12 is mounted on thelateral plate 13 and in particular on theperimeter frame 15, so as to have at least one movement component along the movement direction of theclosing bar 5. In particular, in the embodiment offigures 9-12 thecommand member 12 is in the form of a slider that slides along a translation direction parallel to the translation direction of theclosing bar 5, while in the embodiment offigures 13-16 thecommand member 12 is in the form of a lever (plate-shaped) hinged in an eccentric portion with respect to thecorresponding pin 8, and in particular a hinging portion arranged above thepin 8. - In order to guarantee a correct action of the
command member 12 on therespective pin 8, theengagement portion 17 of thecommand member 12 has an extension direction that is maintained transversal to the movement direction of theclosing bar 5 along the whole stroke of theclosing bar 5 between the extracted and retracted positions. Preferably, theengagement portion 17 is defined by a vertical rectilinear wall in the embodiment offigures 13-16 and by a rectilinear wall that is maintained vertical at least in a non-operating configuration of thecommand member 12 in the embodiment offigures 9-12 (figure 9 shows the non-operating configuration). - In light of what has been described, the engagement between each manoeuvring
element 8 or pin and thecorresponding command member 12 is a direct contact or sliding contact relationship. It therefore follows, according to a particularly advantageous aspect of the invention, that thecommand member 12 acts directly on eachmanoeuvring element 8, i.e. through direct contact without the interposition of further elements (levers, kinematic mechanisms, returns or the like). - It also follows that the command member 12 (and in particular the lateral plate 13) is applied or applicable to the
leaf 100 and/or to the lock-body 2 exclusively through fastening means (threaded members 14) that is distinct with respect to an operating coupling between thecommand member 12 and themanoeuvring element 8. - In an embodiment illustrated in
figures 1-16 , thelateral plate 13 has an extension such as to cover the mentionedopening 11 for a cylinder in a mounting configuration of thelateral plate 13 on theleaf 100. - In accordance with a further aspect of the invention, in such embodiments the
lateral plate 13 can receive in application at least oneremovable covering element 18 arranged in such a position as to superpose the mentionedopening 11 for the cylinder. - The covering
element 18, being plate-shaped, can be conformed in different ways so that it is possible to select the most suitable covering element as a function of the specific requirements. - In fact,
figure 5 illustrates four embodiments of the coveringelement 18, and in particular (from the top to the bottom infigure 5 ) with corresponding opening for the cylinder (in the event of using a cylinder, according tofigure 8 ), with a simple vertical slit (key), with opening/closing identification (application on a leaf for a bathroom) and without any opening (in the latter case if no cylinder is used, therefore for simply covering the view of theopening 11 below). - The mentioned covering
elements 18 can also have the function of covering the view of the mentioned threadedmembers 14 for the fastening of thelateral plates 13. -
Figures 17-21 illustrate a second embodiment, not being part of the presently claimed invention, of theclosure system 1, which differs from the embodiment offigures 1-16 due to the fact that themanoeuvring elements 8 or pins are not applied to theclosing bar 5 but to thecommand member 12, and interact with a corresponding shoulder or with a corresponding seat of theclosing bar 5 for drawing in translation theclosing bar 5 following the manual activation of thecommand member 12. -
Figures 22-24 illustrate further embodiments, compatible with the embodiments offigures 1-21 but in which the extension of thelateral plates 13 is reduced, in particular it is not such as to cover theopening 11 for a cylinder of the lock-body 2 or in the event that the lock-body 2 does not have theopening 11 for a cylinder. In that case the adoption of aseparate washer 19 may be envisaged (figure 22 ) for access to the cylinder, or ahole 160 may be provided on theleaf 100 for a cross key (figure 22 ) or there may be no additional opening aside from the lateral opening to which thelateral plate 13 is applied (figure 24 ). - Advantageously, the present invention can be applied by retrofitting also on existing windows or doors or closure systems. In fact, in such situation, starting for example from a solution with a rotary handle, it may only be necessary to make lateral millings on the leaf for perfecting the dimension and/or shape of the lateral openings and subsequently modify the lock-body for the application of the pins to the closing bar and finally apply to the lateral openings the respective lateral plates provided with the command member for manoeuvring the pin. Alternatively, according to the variant embodiment described above, the modification to the lock-body is made for providing the closing bar with a manoeuvring seat inside which a corresponding pin of the command body of the lateral plate is intended to be engaged.
- The present invention achieves the proposed objects, overcoming the disadvantages complained of in the known art.
- In fact, the closure system according to the invention enables the opening of the lock of a leaf to be performed simply and effectively through a direct movement on the closing bar of the lock and in particular through a command lever arranged substantially flush with the leaf. This therefore results in distinctly reduced dimensions.
- The invention can also be applied relatively simply also to existing closure systems.
