In a first embodiment relating to Figure 1, a device according to the invention is installed in the integrated gate of a sectional garage door and allowing closing up and down said gate.

According to this first embodiment provided of a lock S1 of the longitudinal transmission type of movement to the upper and lower bars, a device according to the invention consists of stretches of flat metal bars fixed free of longitudinal translation in the strip of multiple panels constituting the integrated gate of a door sectional garage. The plane of the sections of the bars is parallel to the strip of the panels and is located just in front of it.

The embedded lock S1 is integrated in a panel almost half the total height of the gate. The transmission of the movement to the two sections of bars arranged by above and below the lock case is carried out by introducing a cylindrical bumper practiced in the upper and lower part of the lock S1, in a hole made in one end of the bar sections. The translation of each of the two sections is controlled by the opening and closing of the lock, which raises or lowers the cylindrical lugs in a plane parallel to the section of the panel on which the lock is fixed and, with this, the sections of bars attached to said lock. The other end of the two bar sections is attached respectively to a fixed bar section free of translation to the right panel section above or below the medium panel that integrates the lock.

An elastic joint allows the transmission of movement of the S1 lock to the sections of bars mounted on The multiple panels.

This elastic joint is spring type R by compression, where the spiral-shaped ends are hooked to a PP1 or PP2 leg folded at 90º and practiced at the end of the sections of bars TT1, TT2 intended to receive said joint elastic Advantageously, the spring coil R is offset from tangential shape to the body of said spring R, allowing a maximum engagement of said spring coil to leg PP1 or PP2 in front.

The spring R is crossed throughout its length by at least one metallic wire folded at each end in order to hinder the elongation of spring R. Another variant consists of cross the spring R along its entire length with a fine cable provided at each end of a loop integrated in said cable, each loop being respectively attached to the PP leg of the end of the bar section facing.

The spring R is guided in its translation by a longitudinal metal profile PR1 and a longitudinal profile PR2 in U shape that covers the spring R in a part of its length.

PR1 and PR2 profiles are composed of a parallel and displaced base of the plane of the bar sections. Two longitudinal wings of said profiles PR1 and PR2, folded to a side and other of the profiles at 90º, fold back over the sections of the bars TT1 and TT2 without making contact with them to avoid friction These longitudinal profiles are crossed both in its central part by a cylindrical bushing DC previously fixed to the corresponding panel section, said cylindrical bushing machining at the end of a narrow opening that allows mounting an elastic washer (circlip) supported at the base of each profile PR1, PR2 to fix them. A variant not shown allows press each PR1 or PR2 profile to the DC bushing by cooperation of a circular excrescence practiced in said DC socket with a slot in each of the wings lengths of said profiles PR1, PR2.

The longitudinal profiles PR1, PR2 are held in a fixed position with respect to the panels by the cooperation between a PP2 leg that depends on each section of bar in front of each longitudinal profile, leg folded at 90º, at the end of the oblong hole opposite the axis of articulation of the panels corresponding, which is inscribed between the wings of the profiles PR1 and PR2, and the DC bushing associated with the spring washer support. Thus placed, the profiles guide the spring R practically up to the level of the axis of rotation, an angular cut at its end it allows the spring R to fold when the panels rotate with the opening and closing action of the garage door.

Each DC socket also has an opening deep on the side opposite the groove made for the washer elastic, allowing the translation of the associated bar section in the oblong hole practiced in it.

According to another embodiment provided with a S lock of rotary transmission of movement to the bars upper and lower, and in relation to Figure 5, the device comprises the support parts of the bars, metal profiles of longitudinal U-shaped folded sheet that include in each end a perpendicular return RT between the wings of the U, return manufactured with an OC circular hole.

The support parts of the bars are fixed to the strip of each of the longitudinal panels articulated that make up the integrated gate.

Each support part of the bars has a part of bar T1 of hollow and square section protruding from the OC hole of each RT return at each end of the part of bar support.

The immobilization regarding the translation of each part of the bar in the associated bar support is obtained by means of two pins that go through the part of the bar in each end, the protruding part of each pin comes into contact immediately with the inner face of each RT return on the sheet folded

An embedded lock box is fixed on a intermediate bar support. This lock box has a central latch PC and outputs for upper and lower bars of opposite longitudinal displacement and in the axis of the parts of T1 bars.

Each exit of the bars is extended by a part of PTC cylindrical bar that has, at its end opposite to the fixing with the bar outlet, of a pin cylindrical TT that crosses the bar part from one side to the other cylindrical, pin whose excreting ends penetrate the lumen helical H of a rotating cylindrical bushing PH. Each one of these two cylindrical bushes PH is fixed on the support of the bar in order to allow rotation movement only obtained by raising or lowering the TT cylindrical bushing in the helical lumen H.

Each rotating cap PH is extended by a hollow square bar part protruding from the OC hole of each RT return, as described above.

The union between the multiple parts of the bars associated each to a bar support is secured by a reed J, square, solid, of rubber, with a section slightly lower than the inside section of each bar, allowing the angular displacement of the panels with respect to each other at time that immobilization is maintained in terms of rotation of the parts of the bars with respect to each other. The immobilization regarding the translation of the reed J is guaranteed by a brake washer inserted in the middle of the length of said reed J, washer that is supported by the weight itself from the reed J at the end of the part of the bar located by below.

At the end of each upper and lower bar, Composed each of several parts of bar, a PG pinion is fixed of straight denture whose axis of rotation is confused with that of the T1 bar.

This cooperates with a zipper forming the tail of a PX latch intended for closing, perpendicular to the section porthole, in order to penetrate a notch provided for such effect and fixed in front of the gate above and below it in the section of the panels that constitute the garage door.

The lock of the lock, when the door is in closed position, that is with the vertical door panel, generates a vertical opposite translation of the bar outputs upper and lower, determining that the rotation of each bush cylindrical PH transmit the rotary movement to each part of the bar through the reeds J.

The PG pinion set rotatably at the end opposite of the lock case of each top bar part and lower farther from said lock box allows the translation of an upper and a lower latch by cooperation of a zipper provided on the tail of the latch, translation that allows to lock each upper and lower latch in a notch located in front of said latches.

This way it is put into practice device according to the invention.
