Abstract
Description
La présente invention est relative à des perfectionnements au dispositif pour l'ouverture et la fermeture d'un vuiet de baie de bâtiment décrit au brevet principal. The present invention relates to improvements to the device for opening and closing a building bay window described in the main patent.
Le brevet principal décrit un dispositif pour l'ouverture et la fermeture d'un volet de baie de bâtiment qui comporte un ressort pneumatique articulé; d'une part, sur le volet et, d'autre part, sur le cadre fixe de la baie. Selon une modalité préférée, l'articulation du ressort pneumatique sur le volet est placée saune certaine distance de l'articulation du volet lui-même sur le cadre de la baie, de manière que dans le pivotement du volet il y ait un moment où l'articulation du volet et les deux articulations du ressort pneumatique se trouvent alignées donnant ainsi une position de point mort, d'un c3té de laquelle le ressort pneumatique actionne le volet en position d'ouverture, tandis que de l'autre coté il actionne le volet vers la position de fermeture. The main patent describes a device for opening and closing a building bay shutter which comprises an articulated air spring; on the one hand, on the shutter and, on the other hand, on the fixed frame of the bay. According to a preferred method, the articulation of the pneumatic spring on the shutter is placed a certain distance from the articulation of the shutter itself on the frame of the opening, so that in the pivoting of the shutter there is a moment when the hinge of the shutter and the two joints of the air spring are aligned thus giving a neutral position, one side of which the air spring actuates the shutter in the open position, while on the other side it actuates the flap to the closed position.
Il est apparu qu'il était possible d'améliorer le fonctionnement du dispositif, en le rendant plus doux, en prévoyant que le ressort pneumatique est articulé sur le volet et sur le cadre fixe de la baie par l'intermédiaire d'articulations à rotule. De préférenceS ces articulations à rotule sont du type à cage en matière plastique. L'avantage de cette disposition est qu'il est possible de tolérer un gauchissement, tel qu'il peut se produire apyres un usage prolongé, sans aucune gêne pour le fonctionnement du dispositif. Dans le cas d'une telle déformation, le point mort dont il a été question plus haut est celui où la droite joignant les centres des articulations sphériques rencontre:.la droite qui constitue l'axe de ltarticulation du volet sur le cadre de la baie. It appeared that it was possible to improve the operation of the device, by making it softer, by providing that the air spring is articulated on the shutter and on the fixed frame of the bay by means of ball joints. . Preferably these ball joints are of the plastic cage type. The advantage of this arrangement is that it is possible to tolerate warping, as it can occur after prolonged use, without any discomfort for the operation of the device. In the case of such a deformation, the dead center mentioned above is that where the straight line joining the centers of the spherical joints meets: the straight line which constitutes the axis of the articulation of the flap on the frame of the bay .
Suivant une modalité ava-ntageuse, il est prévu qu'au moins un ressort pneumatique est pourvu d'un détecteur de position qui peut être relié à des moyens capables de donner l'alarme en cas d'ouverture non désirée. According to an advantageous modality, it is provided that at least one pneumatic spring is provided with a position detector which can be connected to means capable of giving the alarm in the event of unwanted opening.
Cette modalité permet de se dispenser de poser des détecteurs spéciaux, très visibles et, par conséquent, faciles à neutraliser. This method makes it possible to dispense with installing special detectors, very visible and, therefore, easy to neutralize.
La présente invention va être décrite plus en détails à l'aide d'un exemple pratique illustré à l'appui des figures, parmi lesquelles
La figure 1 est une vue en coupe verticale d'une fenêtre équipée d'un dispositif conforme à l'invention,
La figure 2 est une vue agrandie d'une partie de la figure 1, et
La figure 3 est une vue de l'objet de la figure 2 suivant une direction perpendiculaire, avec coupe partielle.The present invention will be described in more detail using a practical example illustrated in support of the figures, among which
FIG. 1 is a view in vertical section of a window fitted with a device according to the invention,
FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of part of FIG. 1, and
Figure 3 is a view of the object of Figure 2 in a perpendicular direction, with partial section.
Sur ces figures, les parties correspondantes des figures du brevet principal possèdent les mêmes repères numériques. In these figures, the corresponding parts of the figures of the main patent have the same reference numerals.
La figure 1 montre que le volet équipé du dispositif de l'invention est un volet du type "à projection", c'est-à-dire que son axe d'articulation est horizontal et placé en partie haute du cadre de fenêtre, alors que dans le brevet principal, il s'agissait de volets à axe vertical, ces axes étant disposés de chaque côté de la baie. FIG. 1 shows that the shutter fitted with the device of the invention is a shutter of the "projection" type, that is to say that its axis of articulation is horizontal and placed in the upper part of the window frame, then that in the main patent, these were shutters with a vertical axis, these axes being arranged on each side of the opening.
Les repères 1, 2 et 3 désignent respectivement le volet, l'articulation, et le ressort pneumatique. Les repères 4 et 5 désignent les articulations reliant le ressort pneumatique 3 respectivement au volet 1 et au båti de la fenêtre. Conformément à l'invention, les articulations 4 et 5 sont des articulations à rotule, et dans la réalisation pratique, il s'agit d'articulations à cage en matière plastique, tellesque décritesau brevet français N 85.05687, au nom de la Demanderesse, c'est-à-dire comportant une rotule emprisonnée dans une cage, laquelle comporte, pour la retenue de la rotule, une portion d'anneau élastique en acier ou matériau analogue, qui est montée dans le logement de la cage ou elle peut coulisser parallèlement à l'axe central de celle-ci et être en outre munie de deux talons symétriquement disposés, de forme sensiblement tronconique, de manière à converger vers ledit axe, ledit logement présentant en plus de la partie permettant le coulissement susdit de l'anneau des surfaces de portée pour les talons qu'elles empêchent de s'écarter l'une de l'autre et de libérer la rotule. The references 1, 2 and 3 respectively designate the flap, the articulation, and the air spring. The marks 4 and 5 designate the articulations connecting the air spring 3 respectively to the shutter 1 and to the frame of the window. According to the invention, the joints 4 and 5 are ball joints, and in the practical embodiment, these are plastic cage joints, as described in French patent N 85.05687, in the name of the Applicant, c '' that is to say comprising a ball joint trapped in a cage, which comprises, for the retention of the ball joint, a portion of elastic ring of steel or similar material, which is mounted in the housing of the cage or it can slide parallel to the central axis thereof and be further provided with two symmetrically arranged heels, of substantially frustoconical shape, so as to converge towards said axis, said housing having in addition to the part allowing the aforementioned sliding of the ring of bearing surfaces for the heels which they prevent from deviating from each other and from releasing the kneecap.
L'avantage de ces articulation à rotule par rapport à des articulations conportant un simple axe de pivotement du type classique et que, si un gauchissement fait que, en considérant la figure 3, les axes des articulations 4 et 5 ne se trouvent pas sur la même verticale, il n'en résulte aucun frottement supplémentaire, et que le fonctionnement est toujours satisfaisant. The advantage of these ball joints compared to joints having a simple pivot axis of the conventional type and that, if a warping means that, considering FIG. 3, the axes of joints 4 and 5 are not on the even vertical, it does not result in any additional friction, and that the operation is always satisfactory.
Comme on peut le voir sur les figures 2 et 3, la tige du piston 3 est cachée par un tube 3c, qui se déplace télescopiquement sur le cylindre 3d du ressort
Ce tube de protection évite toute détérioration de la tige de piston par l'effet de choc, de salissure, ou à l'occasion du dépôt d'une couche de peinture.As can be seen in Figures 2 and 3, the piston rod 3 is hidden by a tube 3c, which moves telescopically on the 3d cylinder of the spring
This protective tube prevents any deterioration of the piston rod by the effect of shock, dirt, or during the deposition of a layer of paint.
Des trous 3e percés à sa base évitent l'accumulation de l'eau à l'intérieur de ce tube. 3rd holes drilled at its base prevent the accumulation of water inside this tube.
Le ressort pneumatique 3 est pourvu d'un dispositif de détection électrique de position du type décrit au brevet FR 84 14923 au nom de la Demanderesse, qui est réglé pour fermer un contact lorsque l'allongement du ressort pneumatique 3 atteint une valeur comprise entre celle qui correspond à la position de fermeture visible en trait plein à la figure 1, et la position d'ouverture, visible en tirets sur la même figure. The air spring 3 is provided with an electrical position detection device of the type described in patent FR 84 14923 in the name of the Applicant, which is adjusted to close a contact when the elongation of the air spring 3 reaches a value between that which corresponds to the closed position visible in solid lines in Figure 1, and the open position, visible in dashes in the same figure.
On a représenté en 10, à la figure 2, le cible électrique de sortie du ressort pneumatique 3. On constate que ce câble est peu visible et peut entre en pratique complètement caché derrière la ferrure 17 qui supporte l'articulation 5. FIG. 2 shows the electrical target for the output of the pneumatic spring at 10. FIG. 2 shows that this cable is not very visible and can in practice be completely hidden behind the fitting 17 which supports the articulation 5.
Les figures 2 et 3 montrent le détail d'un dispositif de verrouillage automatique du volet en position de fermeture. Ce dispositif comprend : une platine 12, maintenue par des vis 13 contre le volet 1. Une pince de blocage 14 est astreinte à se déplacer verticalement en coulissant sur la pièce 12, grftce à une saillie allongée 15 portée par la pièce 12, et qui coopère avec une ouverture allongée 16 de la pièce 14. Cette dernière est par ailleurs maintenue par une vis à tête 17. La partie inférieure de la pièce 14 comprend une partie oblique 18, qui coopère avec la ferrure 19 portant l'articulation A rotule 4, de telle sorte que lorsque le volet s'approche de la position de fermeture, une aile verticale 20, perpendiculaire au plan du volet, et qui-fait partie de la ferrure 19, soulève la pièce 14. Lorsque le volet atteint la position de fermeture, l1aile 20 dépasse l'extrémité de la partie oblique 18, et la pièce 14 retombe, empêchant le volet de s'écarter de la position de fermeture, gracie A une surface verticale 21 qui vient porter sur la face opposée de l'aile 20;
Si l'on désire ouvrir à nouveau le volet, il suffit de relever manuellement la pièce 14. Celle-ci comporte une aile repliée à l'horizontale 22, qui facilite cette opération.Figures 2 and 3 show the detail of an automatic locking device of the shutter in the closed position. This device comprises: a plate 12, held by screws 13 against the flap 1. A locking clamp 14 is forced to move vertically by sliding on the part 12, thanks to an elongated projection 15 carried by the part 12, and which cooperates with an elongated opening 16 of the part 14. The latter is moreover held by a head screw 17. The lower part of the part 14 comprises an oblique part 18, which cooperates with the fitting 19 carrying the ball joint 4 , so that when the shutter approaches the closed position, a vertical wing 20, perpendicular to the plane of the shutter, and which is part of the fitting 19, lifts the part 14. When the shutter reaches the position of closure, the wing 20 exceeds the end of the oblique part 18, and the part 14 falls back, preventing the flap from deviating from the closed position, thanks to a vertical surface 21 which comes to bear on the opposite face of the wing 20;
If it is desired to open the shutter again, it suffices to manually raise the part 14. The latter comprises a wing folded horizontally 22, which facilitates this operation.
Le dispositif qui vient d'9tre décrit se réfère plus particulièrement à la fermeture de volets. Il est clair qu'il est également applicable pour d'autres usages, tels notamment l'ouverture et la fermeture de châssis vitrés. The device which has just been described refers more particularly to the closing of shutters. It is clear that it is also applicable for other uses, such as in particular the opening and closing of window frames.
