Claims

- 15 - CLAIMS

1. Panic bar device comprising- a first bearing assembly (1) and a second bearing assembly (1’) configured for being fixed to a door (101),- a first arm (2) pivotally coupled at a first end to the first bearing assembly (1) by means of a first operating shaft (81),- a second arm (2’) pivotally coupled at a first end to the second bearing assembly (1’) by means of a second operating shaft (81), and- a bar (3) coupled to a second end of the first arm (2) and to a second end of the second arm (2’), such that the bar (3), the first arm (2), and the second arm (2’) pivot with respect to the bearing assemblies (1, 1’) when the bar (3) is pushed,the bearing assembly (1, 1’) comprising a rotating shaft (21) comprising a housing (22) for the operating shaft (81), the rotating shaft (21) being configured for rotating together with the operating shaft (81) and the respective arm (2, 2’) of the panic bar device (100), characterized in thatthe first arm (2) and the second arm (2’) are selected from a plurality of pairs of arms (2, 2’) configured for having different inclinations in the panic bar device (100) with respect to a front surface (104) of the door (101) in a standby state of the panic bar device (100) in which the bar (3) is not pushed, the different inclinations being obtained by varying the angular orientation of the operating shaft (81) with respect to the arms (2, 2’).

2. Panic bar device according to claim 1, wherein the bearing assembly (1) acting on a lock comprises- a bearing element (11) comprisingo a base plate (12) configured for being fixed to the front surface (104) of the door (101),o a first side plate (13) attached to the base plate (12) on one of its sides, and a second side plate (13’) attached to the base plate (12) on the opposite side facing the first side plate (13), each side plate (13, 13’) comprising a bore (14, 14’), both bores (14, 14’) facing one another, and the rotating shaft (21) being housed in the bores (14, 14’) of the side plates (13, 13’), - 16 - - at least one pushing element (41) coupled to the rotating shaft (21) and configured for rotating together with the rotating shaft (21), the pushing element (41) comprising a projection (42), and- a lock actuating element (31) coupled to the base plate (12) configured for rotating about an axis perpendicular to the base plate (12) and acting on the lock, the actuating element (31) comprising a projection (32) configured for being pushed by the projection (42) of the pushing element (41), thus causing the rotation thereof,the pushing element (41) being configured for delimiting the angular travel of the panic bar (3) cooperating with a standby position stop (121) and with an end-of- travel stop (122),and the second bearing assembly (1’), which does not act on the lock, being identical to the first bearing assembly (1), which acts on the lock, without the lock actuating element (31).

3. Panic bar device according to claim 2, wherein the bearing assembly (1, 1’)comprises at least one additional detachable end-of-travel stop (123) delimiting a smaller travel than the end-of-travel stop (122), the end-of-travel stop (122) being a fixed stop.

4. Panic bar device according to claim 3, wherein the additional detachable end-of- travel stop (123) is a shaft (91) configured for being housed in facing bores (17, 17’) arranged in the side plates (13, 13’).

5. Panic bar device according to claim 4, wherein the additional detachable end-of- travel stop (123) comprises a recess (92), and the bearing assembly (1, 1’)comprises between the two side plates an elastic protrusion (73) configured for being housed in said recess (92) and fixing the axial position of said additionaldetachable travel stop (123).

6. Panic bar device according to claim 5, wherein the bearing assembly (1, 1’)comprises a guide element (71) positioned on the base plate (12) and coupled to the side plates (13, 13’), the guide element (71) comprising the elastic protrusion (73).

7. Panic bar device according to any of claims 2 to 6, wherein if in the standby state the projection (32) of the lock actuating element (31) is arranged in a first angular position, the projection (32) is pushed by the projection (42) of the pushing element - 17 - (41), the lock actuating element (31) rotating in one direction, and if the projection (32) is arranged in a second angular position it is pushed by a projection (42’) of an additional pushing element (41’), the lock actuating element (31) rotating in the opposite direction.

8. Panic bar device according to any of claims 2 to 7, comprising a calibrating element (51) configured for being coupled to the two side plates (13, 13’) so that both side plates (13, 13’) remain parallel to one another and perpendicular to the base plate (12).

9. Panic bar device according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the operating shaft (81) comprises a fixing element (82) and pushing means (83) configured for pushing the fixing element (82) radially out of the operating shaft (81), and the rotating shaft (21) comprises a bore (23) on the periphery of the housing (22) in the radial direction, the fixing element (82) being configured for being housed in the bore (23) when the operating shaft (81) is introduced into the housing (22) and fixing the operating shaft (81) to the rotating shaft (21).

10. Panic bar device according to claim 9, wherein the housing (22) of the rotating shaft (21) and the operating shaft (81) have a cross section configured so that the operating shaft (81) can be introduced into the housing (22) in a single position.

11. Panic bar device according to claim 10, wherein the cross section of the housing (22) of the rotating shaft (21) and of the operating shaft (81) is a regular polygon with a bevel (84) in one of the vertices of said polygon.
