- This leaf or these leaves carry out an embedding movement (transverse) and external sliding (longitudinal) with respect to the hollow of the vehicle body.
- the opening and closing device ensures the position of the leaves with the door closed, preventing their opening from the stresses to which the leaf is subjected. Furthermore, the opening and closing device itself enables the embedding movement to be carried out during the opening and closing of the leaves.

- the hooks 5 are fixed to the base plate 8 and, therefore, to the door body.
- the hooks 5 are connected through the second shafts 3 to the connecting rod 1, wherein the connecting rod 1 acts as a torsion bar between both ends and, therefore, the rotation of the connecting rod 1 translates into the simultaneous movement of transverse translation.
- Figure 5 shows the longitudinal transmission system of the opening and closing device according to the present invention.
- worm gear 13 is mounted parallel to the suspension tube 6 and is supported at both ends on the suspension supports 9, in such a way that both the suspension tube 6 and the worm gear 13 are fixed to the supports 9 and kept between them always in the same position.

- the motor 17 When the motor 17 is electrically powered, it turns the toothed wheel 33, since it, in turn, turns the worm gear 13, which moves the nut 14, and through the towing fork 15 it drags the suspension arm 7 to which the door leaf is fixed.
- the electric motor 17 also comprises a reducer 19.

- the sheave 11 of the suspension arm 7 is inserted in the guide 12 of the base plate 8 and located on the slope of said guide. Since hooks 5 do not allow translation to the outside, the sheave 11 cannot move and, therefore, the suspension arm 7 is locked both in translation outward and in longitudinal translation.

- this sheave 11 prevents the suspension arm 7 with the suspension tube 6 from moving towards the inside, that is, the second output pinion 20 of the reducer 19 cannot rotate and it is the exterior of the reducer 19 that makes the worm gear 13 rotate, and produces the longitudinal translation of the suspension arm 7 in the closing direction.
- the shape of the guide groove 12 at the end of the closing movement makes the suspension arm 7 and the suspension tube 6 perform the transverse embedding movement aided by the simultaneous turning of the connecting rod 1 through the drive wheel. 32 driven by the second output pinion 20 of the reducer 19.
- This movement combines both sides of the locking system.
- the first pinion 18 of the reducer 19 that drives the worm gear 13 cannot rotate, and it is the second pinion 20 of the output of the reducer 19 that continues to rotate and drag the drive wheel 32, which in turn pushes the hooks 5 to rotate on the first shafts 4, causing them to be locked and, consequently, the door leaf is locked in the closed position.
- FIG 9 a variation of the motorization system is shown, in which instead of a suspension arm 7, two suspension arms are provided, located next to each other, and the worm gear 13 is realized in two parts, that is, one side is reverse threaded with respect to thread on the other side.
- This motorization system can be used for double leaf doors, since by turning the worm gear 13, the suspension arms will move the same distance, but in opposite directions.
- the locking system remains identical to that described above.
- the opening and closing device comprises the same systems described above, but the suspension system is replaced.
- suspension system described above that is, the suspension tube 6 and the suspension arm 7 are replaced by a beam 21, for example made of aluminum, which is fixed to each of the side supports 9 at the same place occupied by the suspension tube 6, as can be seen in figure 10 .
- each rail 22 is attached to this beam 21, one rail mounted above the other.
- each rail 22 is formed by a slide 23 fixed to the beam 21 and by a guide 24 on which one of the door leaves is fixed.
- the guide 24 moves linearly on the slide 23 through balls 25 that are separated from each other by a ball cage 26. Therefore, in each of these guides 24 one of the leaves is fixed, and allows each one moves longitudinally relative to the other.
- This suspension system allows two leaves to be supported (it is valid for double doors), since with the door open, the leaves are suspended in a cantilevered way by the part of the guide 24 that remains in the fixed part of the opening and closing device, such as shown in figure 12 .
- the door guiding system is formed as in the previous system by a sheave 11 that is fixed to a suspension arm attached to one of the guides 24 of the suspension system. As in the previous suspension system, the sheave 11 moves inside a guide groove 12 located in the base plate 8.
- the transmission system is identical to the previous one, that is, it is realized through the worm gear 13 mounted parallel to the beam 21, a towing arm 34 is attached through a joint 16 to the towing fork 15 that moves the nut 14 that drives the drive arm 34, and this to the rail 22 to which the door leaf is fixed.
- the locking system is identical to the previous mechanism only with the exception that the connecting rod 1 is located inside the beam 21 and, therefore, the arrangement of the motor 17, the worm gear 13 and the locking system is identical to the suspension tube configuration, only varying the suspension, but the principle is the same.
- telescopic suspension 27 is made up of three elements that can be moved relative to each other.
Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a device for opening and closing the doors of public transport vehicles, for example, the doors of railway vehicles, which allows the doors to be locked.
- A vast majority of railway vehicles and, in general, many motor vehicles intended for the transport of people, are equipped with a type of door for accessing them, which are of the embeddable-sliding type, that is, in the closed door position the door leaves are perfectly aligned with the outer surface of the railway vehicle and in the open position they are located on the outer side of the vehicle, leaving the gap free for the passage of people.
- It is for this reason that these doors are provided with a mechanism that produces a double movement on the leaves, an ejecting or embedding movement perpendicular to the surface of the vehicle and another sliding or slide movement parallel to the surface of the vehicle on the outside.
- Currently the mechanisms of these doors have different functions:
- Supporting the weight of the leaves;
- Carrying out the embedding and sliding movements parallel to the vehicle body;
- Securing the closed and locked door position.
- These functions can be carried out using different solutions both with regard to the leaf suspension system, as well as the system in charge of the movement such as the system to ensure the closed and locked door position.
- Although all functions are important, it is the function of ensuring the closed and locked door position that is most relevant at the security level, since it must ensure that a door does not open improperly (train running, track side , etc.).
- Normally, depending on the type of suspension and the type of transmission of movement, different types of locking systems are applied. Many of the locking systems use properties such as the "neutral position step". This system consists of a series of cams or levers that use the property of the neutral passage to block the ejection movement (transverse direction).
- Other systems use the locking of the movement transmission system, that is, they lock the movement in the longitudinal direction and other systems use independent locks, such as hooks or cams that lock axes located in moving parts of the mechanism (suspension arm, drag, slides, etc.).
- These locking systems are actuated by the motorization of the transmission mechanism itself or by the independent motorization system.
- Systems that use the "neutral position step" have the disadvantage that they must overcome a significant stress to pass that neutral position (especially when opening) and during manual closing of the door, rebounds occur that make locking difficult.
- The systems that lock transmissions (control screw, belt) lock the longitudinal direction and, therefore, they do not lock the ejection movement by themselves, and guides are necessary that convert the longitudinal movement into transversal, and with this combination closing is ensured.
- Therefore, an objective of the present invention is to provide a device for opening and closing the doors of public transport vehicles that solves the above-mentioned drawbacks.
- With the device for opening and closing the doors of public transport vehicles of the invention, the aforementioned disadvantages are solved, presenting other advantages that will be described below.
- The device for opening and closing the doors of public transport vehicles according to the present invention comprises a locking system that locks the door in its closed position, and is characterized in that said locking system comprises:
- a connecting rod defining a first axis of rotation, the connecting rod comprising at each of its two ends an actuating element provided with a first shaft and a second shaft; and
- a locking element provided with a slot and an elongated hole, and movable between a locking position and an unlocking position,
- According to a first embodiment, said actuating element is a suspension arm, wherein the first shaft is aligned with the first axis of rotation and the second shaft is offset with respect to said first axis of rotation.
- According to a second embodiment, said actuating element is a drive wheel, wherein the first shaft is arranged in the center of the drive wheel and the second shaft is offset from the center of the drive wheel.
- Advantageously, the locking element is rotatable at one of its ends around a second axis of rotation, which is parallel to the first axis of rotation.
- Furthermore, the locking element is connected to a base plate, and the connecting rod is mounted at its ends on respective supports, said supports being movable with respect to said base plate.
- According to a preferred embodiment, said connecting rod is mounted inside a suspension tube, a suspension arm being movable along said suspension tube.
- In this embodiment, the movement of the suspension arm along the suspension tube is driven by a motor, which drives the rotation of a worm gear, which is connected to said suspension arm by means of a towing fork.
- Furthermore, a threaded nut is moved on the worm gear which is integral with the suspension arm by means of the towing fork, and a joint is advantageously arranged between the towing fork and the suspension arm.
- Advantageously, said actuating element is rotated by the action of a motor and a pinion.
- According to an alternative embodiment, the connecting rod is housed inside a beam fixed to the supports, and said beam comprises at least one slide, along which a guide moves, which is fixed to a leaf of a door.
- Preferably, said beam comprises two slides, one being placed above the other or one being movable within the other in a telescopic manner.
- The following advantages are achieved with the device for opening and closing the doors of public transport vehicles:
- - The system is valid for different types of doors, single, double, high speed, etc.
- - The connecting rod system attached to the hook provides supplementary entry and exit forces at key moments of the journey (ejecting and / or embedding).
- - The locking is carried out directly between the hooks fixed to the body and the shaft of the suspension system, so the loads that the leaf supports with the door closed pass directly to the body, without many intermediate elements.
- - - The turning point is not used for locking, which means that it is not necessary to compress the door before opening, eliminating the additional stress that this entails.
- - Locking is carried out on both sides and the shaft itself is used to combine the movement between the two sides of the system, avoiding adding other parts to perform this function.
- For a better understanding of what has been stated, some drawings are attached in which, schematically and only as a non-limiting example, a practical case of embodiment is represented.

Figure 15 is a plan view of the suspension system represented inFigure 14 . - The opening and closing device according to the present invention is applicable to embeddable sliding doors for public transport vehicles, for example railways, which can be single-leaf or double-leaf. This leaf or these leaves carry out an embedding movement (transverse) and external sliding (longitudinal) with respect to the hollow of the vehicle body.
- The opening and closing device ensures the position of the leaves with the door closed, preventing their opening from the stresses to which the leaf is subjected. Furthermore, the opening and closing device itself enables the embedding movement to be carried out during the opening and closing of the leaves.
- The device for opening and closing doors according to the present invention comprises a
base plate 8 on which the following systems are mounted: - A suspension system;
- A guiding and conjunction system between both ends of the opening and closing device;
- A longitudinal transmission system;
- A motorization system; and
- A locking system.
-
Figure 1 shows the locking system comprising a connectingrod 1 that can only be moved horizontally in relation to a first axis of rotation A. This connectingrod 1 includes two actuating elements, referred to assuspension arm 2 from now on, one at each end of connectingrod 1. -
First shafts 4 concentric with the first axis of rotation A of the connectingrod 1 andsecond shafts 3 offset from the axis of rotation A are mounted on thesesuspension arms 2. The connectingrod 1 can only be moved horizontally, and can also be rotated about its own first axis of rotation A. - Two locking
elements 5, referred to ashooks 5 hereinafter, are located at each end of the connectingrod 1 and are attached to it through thesecond shafts 3 as they are inserted into anelongated hole 30 of eachhook 5. Thesehooks 5 are fixed and can only rotate about a second axis of rotation B. The second axis of rotation B of thehooks 5 and the first axis of rotation A of the connectingrod 1 are horizontally aligned, and whilehooks 5 can only rotate on their second axis of rotation B, the connectingrod 1 apart from rotating on its first axis of rotation A, can move horizontally. - In the locking position (
figure 2a ), thefirst shaft 4 is inside aslot 31 in eachhook 5. If a force is applied to separate thefirst shaft 4 from thehooks 5, the shape of theslot 31 prevents them from being separated (figure 2b ). - If in this position the connecting
rod 1 is rotated around the first axis of rotation A in the counterclockwise direction (according tofigures 1 and2a-2e ), thesecond shaft 3 of the connectingrod 1 pushes thehooks 5 upwards, producing the unlocking of the system (figure 2c ), since thefirst shaft 4 of the connectingrod 1 is released from inside theslot 31 of thehooks 5, and if the rotation is continued, the connectingrod 1, as a consequence of the reaction of thehooks 5, moves horizontally away from the initial position (figures 2d and 2e ), producing a translational movement. - If in this situation the connecting
rod 1 is rotated clockwise (according tofigures 1 and2a-2e ), the movement opposite to the previous one is caused and, therefore, it approaches the initial position. If it continues being rotated, thesecond shaft 3 of the connectingrod 1 pushes down thehooks 5, and causes the system to lock when thefirst shafts 4 of the connectingrods 1 are inserted into theslot 31 of thehooks 5. -
Figures 3a and 3b show the suspension system of the door opening and closing device according to the present invention. - The function of the suspension system is to support the weight of the leaf or leaves, as well as the stresses that occur in closing in order to lock the system.
- The suspension system comprises a
suspension tube 6 arranged longitudinally along the upper hollow of a body of a door (not shown). Asuspension arm 7 is mounted o thesuspension tube 6 that can move longitudinally along thesuspension tube 6. The door leaf will be fixed to theupper suspension arm 7 and, therefore, allows it to move longitudinally. - The
suspension tube 6 is mounted at its ends onsupports 9, which in turn are mounted onsupport shafts 10 located perpendicular to thesuspension tube 6 and which allow the entire system to move transversely with respect to the body of the door. Thesupport shafts 10 are mounted on abase plate 8 which is fixed directly to the door housing. - This arrangement allows the door leaf (which is fixed to the suspension arm 7) to carry out its two movements, the transverse and the longitudinal one.
-
Figure 5 shows the guiding and conjunction system of the opening and closing device according to the present invention, which comprises asheave 11 integral with thesuspension arm 7, saidsheave 11 moves inside aguide groove 12 located onbase plate 8. - As can be seen in
Figures 3a and 3b , the connectingrod 1, which serves to perform said conjunction, is located inside thesuspension tube 6 and, therefore, can be moved horizontally, and at the same time the connectingrod 1 can rotate inside thesuspension tube 6. - For their part, the
hooks 5 are fixed to thebase plate 8 and, therefore, to the door body. - The
hooks 5 are connected through thesecond shafts 3 to the connectingrod 1, wherein the connectingrod 1 acts as a torsion bar between both ends and, therefore, the rotation of the connectingrod 1 translates into the simultaneous movement of transverse translation. - If at the end of the rotation, the
first shaft 4 enters thegroove 31 of thehook 5, the transverse translation is not possible and, therefore, the transverse translation of thesuspension tube 6 is locked and the door leaf can not be moved. This position is the closed and locked door position (figure 3b ). - In order to unlock the system, as has been described in more detail above, it is necessary to rotate the connecting
rod 1 in a counter-clockwise direction (according to the embodiment shown), at that time thehook 5 is raised by the action of thesecond shaft 3 of the connectingrod 1 and thefirst shaft 4 is released. If the connectingrod 1 continues to rotate, thesupports 9 move outwards, ejecting the door leaf outwards, since it is fixed to thesuspension arm 7, which in turn is attached to thesuspension tube 6 and this to supports 9. -
Figure 5 shows the longitudinal transmission system of the opening and closing device according to the present invention. - In this transmission system, the translation of the
suspension arm 7 through thesuspension tube 6 is carried out through aworm gear 13. Thisworm gear 13 is mounted parallel to thesuspension tube 6 and is supported at both ends on the suspension supports 9, in such a way that both thesuspension tube 6 and theworm gear 13 are fixed to thesupports 9 and kept between them always in the same position. - The
worm gear 13 is equipped with a threadednut 14 on the worm gear itself 13. A towingfork 15 is articulated on one side to thesuspension arm 7, and is inserted through the towingfork 15 into thenut 14. - A joint 16 placed between the towing
fork 15 and thesuspension arm 7 makes it possible to absorb small inclinations of thesuspension arm 7 with respect to theworm gear 13. The towingfork 15, when inserted into thenut 14, prevents it from rotating with respect to theworm gear 13. - The rotation of the
worm gear 13 produces the translation on its axis of thenut 14, which in turn is fixed to the towingfork 15 that drives thesuspension arm 7, thus producing the translation movement in one direction or the other, just changing the direction of rotation of theworm gear 13. -
Figures 6 and 7 show the motorization system of the opening and closing device according to the present invention. - A
toothed wheel 33 is mounted on one of the ends of theworm gear 13. Anelectric motor 17 is mounted on thesupport 9, so that it is parallel to both theworm gear 13 and thesuspension tube 6. Afirst pinion 18 of themotor 17 is engaged withtoothed wheel 33 ofworm gear 13. - When the
motor 17 is electrically powered, it turns thetoothed wheel 33, since it, in turn, turns theworm gear 13, which moves thenut 14, and through the towingfork 15 it drags thesuspension arm 7 to which the door leaf is fixed. - The
electric motor 17 also comprises areducer 19. Thisreducer 19 is fixed to the body of themotor 17 through bearings, which give it an additional degree of freedom with respect to themotor 17. That is, thereducer 19 can rotate with respect to themotor 17. - This arrangement allows us to have two outputs. The
reducer 19 is equipped with saidfirst pinion 18 fixed on its body. Thisfirst pinion 18 engages with thetoothed wheel 33 of theworm gear 13. The output shaft of thereducer 19 is equipped with asecond pinion 20. If thesecond pinion 20 is locked and themotor 17 is electrically powered, as thesecond pinion 20 cannot rotate, thereducer 19 rotates, which through thefirst pinion 18 rotates theworm gear 13. - According to a second embodiment shown in
figure 8 , wherein same reference numbers are used to indicate same elements as in the previous embodiment, the shaft ofreducer 19 comprises asecond pinion 20, the connectingrod 1 being located inside thesuspension tube 6 equipped at each of its ends with a drive wheel 32 (actuating element) that replaces thesuspension arms 2 of the embodiment described above. Thisdrive wheel 32, with thesuspension arms 2, comprises afirst shaft 4 and asecond shaft 3. - When the rotation of the
reducer 19 is locked, for example, thesuspension arm 7 cannot move further, at that moment, thedrive wheel 32 rotates thesecond pinion 20, which combines the movements of both ends and locks or unlocks thehooks 5 according to the direction of rotation applied to theelectric motor 17. - When the door is closed, the leaf is locked in translation by the locking system, the
hooks 5 retain thefirst shafts 4 of the connectingrod 1 that is inside thesuspension tube 6. - The
hooks 5 are articulated on thebase plate 8 which, in turn, is fixed to the body of the vehicle. - Also in this embodiment, and as shown in
figure 4 , thesheave 11 of thesuspension arm 7 is inserted in theguide 12 of thebase plate 8 and located on the slope of said guide. Sincehooks 5 do not allow translation to the outside, thesheave 11 cannot move and, therefore, thesuspension arm 7 is locked both in translation outward and in longitudinal translation. - When the
electric motor 17 is powered to open the door, the exterior of thereducer 19 that generates the rotation of theworm gear 13 cannot rotate, since the door is locked in the longitudinal direction and the shaft of thereducer 19 with thesecond pinion 20 can rotate causing the rotation of thedrive wheel 32, which in turn rotates thehooks 5, releasing thefirst shafts 4 of the connectingrod 1 and therefore unlocking the locking system, which allows thesuspension tube 6 to exit and thesuspension arm 7 can be translated through theworm gear 13, producing the opening movement of the door leaf. - With the door open, the
sheave 11 is inside theguide groove 12. When theelectric motor 17 is powered to close the door, thissheave 11 prevents thesuspension arm 7 with thesuspension tube 6 from moving towards the inside, that is, thesecond output pinion 20 of thereducer 19 cannot rotate and it is the exterior of thereducer 19 that makes theworm gear 13 rotate, and produces the longitudinal translation of thesuspension arm 7 in the closing direction. The shape of theguide groove 12 at the end of the closing movement makes thesuspension arm 7 and thesuspension tube 6 perform the transverse embedding movement aided by the simultaneous turning of the connectingrod 1 through the drive wheel. 32 driven by thesecond output pinion 20 of thereducer 19. - This movement combines both sides of the locking system. When the door leaf can no longer advance, the
first pinion 18 of thereducer 19 that drives theworm gear 13 cannot rotate, and it is thesecond pinion 20 of the output of thereducer 19 that continues to rotate and drag thedrive wheel 32, which in turn pushes thehooks 5 to rotate on thefirst shafts 4, causing them to be locked and, consequently, the door leaf is locked in the closed position. - In
figure 9 a variation of the motorization system is shown, in which instead of asuspension arm 7, two suspension arms are provided, located next to each other, and theworm gear 13 is realized in two parts, that is, one side is reverse threaded with respect to thread on the other side. This motorization system can be used for double leaf doors, since by turning theworm gear 13, the suspension arms will move the same distance, but in opposite directions. The locking system remains identical to that described above. - Due to space problems, many times the
suspension tube 6 and thesuspension arms 7 cannot be used, since this type of suspension requires a longitudinal space greater than the door opening. - In these cases, the opening and closing device comprises the same systems described above, but the suspension system is replaced.
- The suspension system described above, that is, the
suspension tube 6 and thesuspension arm 7 are replaced by abeam 21, for example made of aluminum, which is fixed to each of the side supports 9 at the same place occupied by thesuspension tube 6, as can be seen infigure 10 . - Two
rails 22 are attached to thisbeam 21, one rail mounted above the other. As can be seen infigure 11 , eachrail 22 is formed by aslide 23 fixed to thebeam 21 and by aguide 24 on which one of the door leaves is fixed. - The
guide 24 moves linearly on theslide 23 throughballs 25 that are separated from each other by aball cage 26. Therefore, in each of theseguides 24 one of the leaves is fixed, and allows each one moves longitudinally relative to the other. - This suspension system allows two leaves to be supported (it is valid for double doors), since with the door open, the leaves are suspended in a cantilevered way by the part of the
guide 24 that remains in the fixed part of the opening and closing device, such as shown infigure 12 . - In this embodiment, as shown in
figure 13 , the door guiding system is formed as in the previous system by asheave 11 that is fixed to a suspension arm attached to one of theguides 24 of the suspension system. As in the previous suspension system, thesheave 11 moves inside aguide groove 12 located in thebase plate 8. - The transmission system is identical to the previous one, that is, it is realized through the
worm gear 13 mounted parallel to thebeam 21, a towing arm 34 is attached through a joint 16 to the towingfork 15 that moves thenut 14 that drives the drive arm 34, and this to therail 22 to which the door leaf is fixed. - The locking system is identical to the previous mechanism only with the exception that the connecting
rod 1 is located inside thebeam 21 and, therefore, the arrangement of themotor 17, theworm gear 13 and the locking system is identical to the suspension tube configuration, only varying the suspension, but the principle is the same. - For simple doors (a single leaf) it is obvious that the previous suspension system cannot be used, since the principle of the suspended rail is not applicable, since the length to apply it is lacking. In these cases the solution is to mount the same system described, that is, to provide a
beam 21, but instead of mounting a double slide, a double stage slide system ortelescopic suspension 27 is mounted, as shown in thefigure 14 . - This is a similar system to the previous one, but here the
telescopic suspension 27 is made up of three elements that can be moved relative to each other. - With this suspension system it is possible to suspend a single leaf door. The rest of the opening and closing device is identical to that described above.
- Despite the fact that reference has been made to a specific embodiment of the invention, it is clear to a person skilled in the art that the opening and closing device being described is susceptible to numerous variations and modifications, and that all the mentioned features can be replaced by others technically equivalent, without departing from the scope of protection defined by the appended claims.
