Abstract
Description
La présente invention est un mécanisme pour actionner les portes avec le pied sans l'aide des mains. Le contact avec les poignées de porte n'est pas hygiénique et d'autre part certaines activités mobilisent les mains et rendent difficile l'ouverture d'une porte. Les systèmes existants d'ouverture de porte sans les mains font appel soit à des motorisations coûteuses, soit à une forme de poignée à crocheter avec le coude en un geste peu naturel, soit se limitent à débloquer la serrure, la porte devant être poussée avec le pied ou l'épaule. The present invention is a mechanism for operating the doors with the foot without the help of the hands. The contact with the door handles is unhygienic and on the other hand some activities mobilize the hands and make it difficult to open a door. The existing systems for opening a door without the hands call for either expensive engines, or a handle shape crocheting with the elbow in an unnatural gesture, or are limited to unlock the lock, the door to be pushed with foot or shoulder.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de façon économique, simple de mise en œuvre par un bricoleur et sur la plupart des portes existantes, même situées dans un angle de mur et quelle que soit la largeur de mur, d'ajouter une commande par le pied d'ouverture et de fermeture. The device according to the invention makes it possible economically, simple implementation by a handyman and on most existing doors, even located in a corner of wall and regardless of the wall width, to add a command by the foot opening and closing.
Le mécanisme est composé d'un système de leviers, d'un système de transmission de l'effort, d'un bras d'actionnement de la porte, d'un système de rappel de fermeture de la porte, d'un système de blocage de la serrure existante. - Le système de leviers vient s'encastrer dans une découpe à réaliser en partie basse de l'encadrement fixe de la porte coté ouvrant. Il est constitué de deux leviers (1) positionnés en symétrie de part et d'autre de la porte, formés chacun d'une barre avec à une extrémité une platine d'appui pour le pied (2) dépassant de la porte et à l'autre extrémité un axe en partie basse. En position intermédiaire sur le levier est fixée l'extrémité d'une barre articulée (3) dont l'autre extrémité coulisse dans une glissière verticale (4). Chaque levier est indépendant et actionne la barre articulée en compas dont le point haut coulisse dans une glissière et appuie sur un chariot (5) descendant dans une double glissière verticale lors d'un appui du pied. Chaque glissière est dédiée à un levier et un coté de la porte. La double glissière est fixée sur le chant de l'encadrement fixe de la porte ou le mur. Le chariot reporte l'effort du levier en dehors de l'encadrement fixe de la porte par une équerre (6). Cette équerre peut être équipée d'une rallonge en fonction de l'épaisseur du mur . Le levier opposé non utilisé est maintenu en position haute repliée par un système 2951489 -2- d'aimant (7), de clip ou de ressort, pour éviter de faire croche-pied. - Le système de transmission de l'effort est un câble (8), une tige, une chaîne, ou un autre dispositif articulé. L'effort est 5 transmis verticalement vers le haut puis renvoyé horizontalement par une poulie (9) ou autre système vers une extrémité du bras d'actionnement de la porte. - Le bras d'actionnement de la porte est constitué d'une barre coudée (10) maintenue par un axe vertical à la traverse haute 10 horizontale de l'encadrement fixe de la porte et formant levier. Une extrémité est actionnée par le système de transmission de l'effort, l'autre extrémité porte une roulette (11) coulissant dans une glissière (12) fixée sur la porte. Le bras peut aussi comporter une articulation en genouillère. 15 - Le système de rappel de fermeture de la porte (13) est constitué d'un ressort de traction ou système élastique équivalent entre l'encadrement fixe de la porte et le bras d'actionnement de la porte. Ce ressort peut être remplacé par un contrepoids descendant le long de l'encadrement de la porte coté paumelles. Il vient 20 contrebalancer l'effort du levier pour refermer la porte à la cessation de l'effort du pied. Il peut comporter une système de freinage de la fermeture en bout de course, ou être supprimé pour être remplacé par un système ferme-porte du commerce. - Le système de blocage du penne de la serrure existante est un 25 objet à coincer contre le penne pour le maintenir en position rentrée. Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention : La figure 1 représente en perspective le mécanisme de l'invention. Le montant de l'encadrement fixe n'a pas été figuré du coté des 30 paumelles de la porte pour faciliter la lecture. La figure 2 représente une porte équipée vue de face. La figure 3 représente une coupe verticale dégageant le système de leviers. La figure 4 est une vue de dessus dégageant le bras d'actionnement 35 de la porte. La figure 5 reprend la figure 3 en position porte fermée. La figure 6 reprend la figure 3 en position intermédiaire en cours 2951489 -3 d'action. La figure 7 reprend la figure 3 en position porte ouverte. La figure 8 reprend la figure 4 en position porte fermée. La figure 9 reprend la figure 4 en position porte ouverte.The mechanism is composed of a system of levers, a system of transmission of the force, a door operating arm, a closing system of the door closing, a system of lock the existing lock. - The levers system is embedded in a cut to be made in the lower part of the fixed frame of the opening side door. It consists of two levers (1) positioned symmetrically on either side of the door, each formed of a bar with at one end a support plate for the foot (2) protruding from the door and at the door. another end an axis at the bottom. In the intermediate position on the lever is fixed the end of an articulated bar (3) whose other end slides in a vertical slide (4). Each lever is independent and actuates the articulated bar in compass whose high point slides in a slide and presses on a carriage (5) descending in a double vertical slide during a support of the foot. Each slide is dedicated to a lever and one side of the door. The double slide is fixed on the edge of the fixed frame of the door or the wall. The carriage defers the force of the lever outside the fixed frame of the door by a bracket (6). This bracket can be equipped with an extension according to the thickness of the wall. The opposite lever not used is held in the up position folded by a magnet system (7), clip or spring, to avoid heeling. - The transmission system of the force is a cable (8), a rod, a chain, or other articulated device. The force is transmitted vertically upwards and then returned horizontally by a pulley (9) or other system to one end of the actuating arm of the door. - The actuating arm of the door consists of a bent bar (10) maintained by a vertical axis to the horizontal high cross member 10 of the fixed frame of the door and forming a lever. One end is actuated by the transmission system of the force, the other end carries a roller (11) sliding in a slide (12) fixed on the door. The arm may also include a knee joint. - The door closing return system (13) consists of a tension spring or equivalent elastic system between the fixed frame of the door and the actuating arm of the door. This spring can be replaced by a counterweight down the frame of the door side hinges. It counterbalances the effort of the lever to close the door to the cessation of the effort of the foot. It may include a closure braking system at the end of the race, or be removed to be replaced by a closed-door system trade. - The locking system of the existing lock pin is an object to be wedged against the pin to hold it in the retracted position. The attached drawings illustrate the invention: FIG. 1 represents in perspective the mechanism of the invention. The amount of the fixed frame was not shown on the side of the 30 hinges of the door to facilitate reading. Figure 2 shows a door equipped front view. Figure 3 shows a vertical section clearing the lever system. Figure 4 is a top view disengaging the actuating arm 35 from the door. Figure 5 shows Figure 3 in the closed door position. Figure 6 shows Figure 3 in the current intermediate position 2951489 -3 action. Figure 7 shows Figure 3 in the open position. Figure 8 shows Figure 4 in the closed door position. Figure 9 shows Figure 4 in the open position.
5 En référence à ces dessins, un mode de réalisation de l'invention est : - Le système de leviers est fabriqué en profilés plats d'acier articulés par des rivets, chaque levier étant maintenu en position haute replié par un aimant quand il n'est pas utilisé. Le chariot 10 comprend des roulettes coulissant dans deux fentes découpées dans une plaque d'acier formant glissières. Cette plaque d'acier double glissière est fixée à travers la découpe de l'encadrement jusqu'au mur. - Le système de transmission de l'effort est un câble avec réglage 15 de tension, se réfléchissant sur une poulie fixée à l'angle haut de l'encadrement fixe de la porte. Le câble peut être dissimulé sous un capot le long de l'encadrement. - Le bras d'actionnement de la porte est un tube coudé maintenu par un axe et portant une roulette à une extrémité coulissant dans une 20 gouttière en U fixée à la porte. - Le système de rappel est un ressort de traction dont la tension est réglable par une vis. - Le système de blocage du penne de la serrure est un fil métallique souple plié en "U".With reference to these drawings, one embodiment of the invention is: - The levers system is made of flat steel profiles articulated by rivets, each lever being held in the high position folded by a magnet when it is not is not used. The carriage 10 comprises rollers sliding in two slots cut in a steel slab plate. This double-slab steel plate is fixed through the cutout of the frame to the wall. The force transmission system is a tension adjusting cable reflective of a pulley fixed at the top angle of the fixed door frame. The cable can be concealed under a hood along the frame. The actuating arm of the door is a bent tube held by an axle and carrying a caster at a sliding end in a U-channel attached to the door. - The return system is a tension spring whose tension is adjustable by a screw. - The locking system of the keyhole is a flexible wire folded in "U".
25 En fonctionnement, la serrure étant neutralisée, la pression du pied sur l'un ou l'autre des leviers situés de part et d'autre de la porte, ouvre la porte. La porte se referme seule après relâchement du pied. Pour actionner le levier, le pied doit être levé à une hauteur comparable à une marche d'escalier (environ 18 30 cm), mouvement habituel ne posant pas de problème d'équilibre. Un utilisateur à l'équilibre incertain peut toujours actionner la porte classiquement par la poignée de la serrure conservée. Un intérêt majeur du système est le dimensionnement compact du système de levier qui s'encastre dans l'encadrement fixe avec un débord 35 minimum. Un platine d'appui du pied plus large et plus confortable peut être fixée en option si l'espace le permet. Le mécanisme selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à -4- l'actionnement des portes des toilettes dans les lieux publics et entreprises, et dans les lieux de soins, en transformation économique de portes existantes. Il est disponible également aux particuliers bricoleurs.5 In operation, the lock being neutralized, the pressure of the foot on one or other of the levers located on either side of the door, opens the door. The door closes alone after loosening the foot. To operate the lever, the foot must be lifted to a height comparable to a step of stairs (approximately 18 30 cm), habitual movement posing no problem of equilibrium. A user with uncertain balance can still operate the door classically by the handle of the lock kept. A major advantage of the system is the compact dimensioning of the lever system which fits into the fixed frame with a minimum overhang. A wider and more comfortable foot support plate can be attached as an option if space permits. The mechanism according to the invention is particularly intended for the actuation of toilet doors in public and business premises, and in health care centers, in economic transformation of existing doors. It is also available to DIY individuals.5
