Description

Electromechanical actuator and closing, screening or solar protection installation comprising such an electromechanical actuator

The present invention relates to an electromechanical actuator for a closing, screening or solar protection installation, in other words an electromechanical actuator for a closing, screening or solar protection installation, as well as a closing installation, d occultation or solar protection comprising a screen driven in displacement by such an electromechanical actuator.

In general, the present invention relates to the field of concealment devices comprising a motorized drive device moving a screen between at least a first position and at least a second position.

A motorized drive device comprises an electromechanical actuator for a movable closing, shading or solar protection element, such as a shutter, a door, a grille, a blind or any other equivalent material, hereinafter called screen.

Electromechanical actuators are already known for a closing, dimming or solar protection installation. The actuator of such an installation comprises a casing, a torque support, an electric power cable, an electric motor and a device for discharging electrostatic charges. The torque support is disposed at one end of the housing. The power supply cable is configured to be connected to an electrical power supply network. The electric motor is mounted inside the housing and is supplied with electrical energy by means of the electrical supply cable. The torque support includes a selection device, a display device, and a housing. The housing houses at least one of the selection device and the display device.

In such installations, electrostatic charges are generated by the friction of the screen, in particular a fabric, on a part made of plastic or metal, in particular a winding tube of the screen or a holding support. of the winding tube.

Known electromechanical actuators are said to be of "electrical protection class 1", i.e. they have electrical insulation achieved by means of an earth connection to which the metal parts are electrically connected.

Such electromechanical actuators are thus electrically connected to a ground, by means of an electrical ground conductor electrically connected to the casing of the electromechanical actuator made of a metallic material, making it possible to evacuate electrostatic charges.

However, these electromechanical actuators, known as "electrical protection class 1", have the disadvantage of implementing only simple electrical insulation, resulting in an increase in the costs of obtaining them, due to the electrical connection between the actuator housing and an electrical ground conductor.

In addition, the housing of the electromechanical actuator is made of a material that is necessarily electrically conductive, to evacuate electrostatic charges.

Furthermore, in the case where so-called "electrical protection class 2" electromechanical actuators can be used in closing, shading or solar protection installations, these are not electrically connected to an earth. that is to say that these have reinforced electrical insulation with no accessible metal part.

However, these actuators, known as "electrical protection class 2", have the disadvantage of discharging electrostatic charges through a printed circuit board of an electronic control unit of the electromechanical actuator, then through the electrical power supply network.

Consequently, the evacuation of electrostatic charges through the printed circuit board can cause malfunctions of these electromechanical actuators and/or damage to them, in particular by the destruction of electronic components.

The electrical protection classes of electromechanical actuators are, in particular, defined by standard IEC 60-335-1 and 2.

The object of the present invention is to resolve the aforementioned drawbacks and to propose an electromechanical actuator, as well as a closing, screening or solar protection installation comprising such an electromechanical actuator, making it possible to discharge electrostatic charges outside the electromechanical actuator without damaging electronic components of an electronic actuator control unit, so as to guarantee the operating reliability of this electromechanical actuator.

In addition, the electrical connection element electrically connects the housing of the torque support to the shield of the power supply cable.

Thus, the evacuation of electrostatic charges through the electrical connection element makes it possible to create a preferential discharge path between the housing of the torque support and the shielding of the electrical power supply cable.

In this way, the evacuation of electrostatic charges through the electrical connection element arranged inside the electromechanical actuator, in particular the torque support and, possibly, the casing, makes it possible to avoid malfunctions and /or damage to the electromechanical actuator and, in particular, to prevent the destruction of electronic components mounted on one or more printed circuit boards of the electronic control unit.

Consequently, the electrical connection element arranged inside the electromechanical actuator makes it possible to evacuate electrostatic charges accumulated in the screen of the installation.

In this way, the electrical connection element arranged inside the electromechanical actuator makes it possible to protect the electronic control unit of the electromechanical actuator.

In addition, the electrical connection element makes it possible to limit overvoltages at the level of the electronic components mounted on the printed circuit board(s) of the electronic control unit, so as to protect the latter.

Furthermore, the second electrical connection element is electrically connected to the shield of the power supply cable.
