Definitions

  • the invention relates to a ti1ting door, espe cially to doors with a relatively large surface.
  • Constructions are known, with which the lower sde of the door aan he inoved upwards and then be guided along the plane being closed by the door in vertical position.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a construction, which makes the use of cables wth counterweights superfluous. This has the advantage, that the possibility of breaking of a cab1e has been eliminated, thatno space for the cables and the counterweights needs to be provided and that generally there are not the 0bjections conneeted With the use of sad cables with counterweights.
  • the opening I in the wa11 2 of a structure can be closed by means of the tilting closing member 3.
  • the lower part 4 of the door or ciosing member 3 is moved upwards and as usual1y the door can be guided with a roller a1ong a guide.
  • the door is suspended on a hinged arm 5, which is attaehed to the wall at 6 and to the door at 7.
  • the point I is situated between the lower edge 4 and the centre of gravity 2 of the door. It is clear that in this way some soceles trangles wth sides a are formed.
  • the centre of gravity 2 of the door moves when opening and closing the door a1ong a horizontal line 6-2.
  • the moment of the weight of the proper door pl with respect to the point 2 is equal to the moment of the weight 1102 with respect to point z.
  • 'I'hus pl b is p2 c whereas pl+p2 is equa1 to p3.
  • the weight 11! can be considered as the weight of the door without the special making heavier to be disoussed hereafter, namely the weight of the door irom the lower part to the centre of gravty 2.
  • 122 is the weight of that part of the construction, located at the other side of the centre of gravity z.
  • thepart of the door closing the opening I in the wa1l is light, e. g. fiom aluminium plate.
  • the point 8 of the door will be situated opposite or near the upper side 9 of the opening.
  • the panels of the door are preferably extended beyond point z, Whereas a weight is arraneed between these panels, which is rigidly conneoted with the door. The weight of the panels beyond the point u together with the extra weight
  • a closure means for an opening in a substantially vertical structure comprsing, in combination, a tiltable closing member movable between a substantially vertioal closng position for closing said opening, and an opening position, said closing member having an upper edge and a lower edge, said lower edge being mounted on said structure slidable in a substantially vertical plane; at least one supporting arm adapted to be pivotally secured at one end thereof to said strueture in said vertioal plane, and pivotally secured at the other end thereof to said elosing member at a pivoting point spaced trom said lower edge for a distance equal to the length of said supporting arm; and weight means secured to said closing member in the region of said upper edge and so arranged and dimensioned that the combineci center of gravity of the entire closure means is located in the plane of said c1osing member spaced from said lower edge of the same a distance equal to twiee the length of said supporting arm, so that said eenter of gravity moves along a horzontal line
  • a closure means for an opening in a substantially vertical structure comprising, in combination, a tiltable closing member movable between a substantially vertical closing position for closing said opening, and an opening position, said closins, member having an upper edge and a lower edge; roller means secured to said closing member in the region of said lower edge and being movable on said structure in a substantially vertical plane; at least one supporting arm adapted to be pivotally secured atone end thereof te said structure in said vertical plane, and pivotally secured at the other end thereof to said closing member at a pvoting point spaced from said lower edge for a distance equal to the Iength of said.
  • a closure means for closing and openingin a vertical structure comprising, in combination, door means, including a door adapted te close said opening by sliding with the 10W8I' edge thereof in a vertical plane along saidstructure from a horizontal opening positon to a vertical closing position, a weight means, and means/securing said weight means to said door spaced from the top edge at such distance that the combined center of gravity of saicl door means is located. in the upper portion of the sarne; and supportng means adapted to be pi voted at one end.
  • said supporting means having substanti ally the length ofhalf the distanee between said lower edge of said door and said center of gravity, and being pivoted at the other end thereof to said door at a point located at equal distances from said lower edge of said door and said center of gravity, so that sad center of gravity moves along a horizontal line during closing ancl opening of said door.
  • a closure means for closing and opening in a vertical structure comprising, in combination, door means, including a door adapted. te close said opening by moving from a horizontal opening postion to a vertical closing position, roller means rotatably secured to said. door in the region.of said bottom eolge and. moving in a vertical plane alongsaid structure during closing and. opening of said.
