Definitions

  • the present invention has -1ior its object a construction of an improved universal door-casing which eliminates all limitations due to the fact that it permits a single and complete manufacture of a single type of door and its casing, including the door-fittings made in workshops, irrespective of the direction of fitting and opening desired and even permitting any direction of fitting which has been eifected to be modified in a few minutes (with-out changing the metal fitting and without any repairs to the paintwork or the like).
  • the door-casing or frame of a single type (made of wood, metal, concrete, plastic material, or any other suitable materials) comprises a conventional system of fixing intended to receive the casing and its door.
  • the special profile of the door-frame can also be ob tained by the pouring or casting of prefabricated partitions or panels.
  • a further characteristic feature of the invention concerns the system of assembly and the fillisters of the casing which enables the desired direction of opening to be obtained according to its fixing arrangement on the doorframe.
  • the reversible door-hinges and locks also enable both directions of opening to be obtained without having to change them.
  • FIG. 1 is a view in elevation of a door according to the invention shown mounted in its frame.
  • FIG. 2 is a detail front view of the door at the level of the lock, of the switch and of a door-hinge.
  • FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 are views in cross-section of the door taken respectively along the lines IIIIII, IV-IV and VV of FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 6 is a view of an example of an assembly detail of the frame of the door.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate two possible mountings of the same door.
  • FIG. 9 is a view in elevation illustrating the location of the door-frame during the building of the wall or of the partition
  • FIGS. 10, 1d and 12 relate to an example of construction with .a door of tempered glass, in a material known under the trademark Plexiglass or the like.
  • FIG. 10 is a horizontal section of the opening side of the door-leaf.
  • FIG. 11 is a vertical cross-section at the level of the top cross-member of the frame.
  • FIG. 12 is a horizontal section at the level of a hinge.
  • the door shown in FIG. 1 comprises, as can be seen 3,295,258 Patented Jan. 3, 1967 in detail from FIGS. 2 to 6, a framing composed of two uprights 1 and .2 and a top cross-mem ber .3, in this case made-up of sections of identical and symmetrical form, provided with sealing lugs 4, spaced apart and of which there will be shown later a method of fixing prior to erection of the wall or of the partition in which the door is to be placed.
  • a door-casing with a fillister in this case composed of two uprights 5 and 6 and a cross-member 7. Only the uprights 5 and '6 are provided here with the fillisters 8, but this could also be the case for the crossmember.
  • the door-panel 9 fits into the fillisters 8 in the position of closure of the door, in which further-more it cooperates with a joint 10 built into the cross-rnember 7 without fillister.
  • the sections of. the door-frame have a mounting groove 11 for the uprights 5 and 6 and the cross-member 7.
  • the uprights are fixed by means of screws .12 placed inside the fillisters 8 and screwing in this case into the nuts 13 welded and retained in the sections of the frame.
  • the cross-member 7 is fixed in a similar manner by means of screws 12 and nuts 13, its fixing being effected in this case before that of the uprights 5 and 6 which are assembled subsequently each with the cross-member, by engagement of a hole 14 with a corresponding false endpeg 15 of the cross-member.
  • the squaring and the desired positioning of this doorcasing can then be ensured by means of thickness wedges 16 intended to be interposed between the dooracasing and the door-frame, in the. grooves of this latter at the positions of the fixing points of the said framing.
  • the door-panel 9 is pivotally coupled to one of the uprights 5 by means of hinges 18 of the reversible type, for example with a central ring .19 connected to the door-panel or to the upright, and pivoting between two butts 2t coupled to the other of these two elements.
  • the door-panel 9 is furthermore provided with a flush-type lock 21 with a reversible bolt 22, which can be of any type known per se, while the latch 23 is fixed inside the fillister of the upright 6.
  • FIG. 7 illustrates the case of a door opening to the left by pulling (such as that of the preceding figures), while FIG. 8 illustrates the case of a door opening to the right when pulling, which is obtained by changing over and reversing the uprights 5 and 6, that is to say geometrically by rotation of the whole of the door panel and its tanging uprights by about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the door at its centre.
  • the cross-member 7 does not require to be moved, even when it has a fillister.
  • the above-mentioned movement is possible due to the fact that the fillisters of the uprights 5 and 6 are symmetrical with respect to a plane perpendicular to the plane defined by door-panel 9 and extending through the central vertical axis of this panel.
  • the door-casing can be placed between the floors prepared before the building of the walls or partitions as is usual, and a particular arrangement of the invention for that purpose consists of joining the fixing lugs 4 of the uprights together by rigid tubes 25 which pass through them and which are intended to form electric conduits for the circuits or controls put at the disposal of the user, that is to say in particular up to the level of the fixing lugs 4 located at the height of the doorhandles, and on which is provided in particular the fixing of switches, such as that shown at 26, or current-supply plugs.
  • These tubes 25 furthermore take the place of needles at their upper parts, that is to say they serve themselves to permit the placing of the door-casing between floors during building, the feet of the uprights of which are directly fixed in the floor, and the upper parts of these tubes 25 being similarly engaged in the flooring of the floor above (FIG. 9).
  • Each tube 25 can be fixed in a removable manner on one only of the fixing lugs 4, for example by means of a screw-connection 27, as can be seen from FIG. 3 on the lug 4 carrying the switch 26.
  • FIG. 9 cross-bracings 28 which it is desirable to insert between the uprights 1 and 2 of the door casing in its fixing prior to the building of the walls or partitions.
  • FIGS. to 12 illustrate an alternative form of construction in the case of a door having a panel 30 of glass, in which the door-casing frame is constituted by sections 1, 2 and 3, identical with those preceding, while the door-framing is constituted by identical sections forming the uprights 31 and 32 and a cross-member 33 with a fillister 34.
  • the fixing of these framing sections is provided with their open side engaged in the groove 11 of the frame section, and as previously by means of screws 35 co-operating with imprisoned nuts 36 and clamping plates 37 inserted in the sections and applied against the lips 38 of these latter.
  • An entry for a screw-driver is provided by openings 39 formed in the fillister 34 at the fixing points considered.
  • a door assembly comprising a symmetrical frame having two upright pieces and a cross piece connecting said upright pieces, each of said pieces having a central groove formed in the inner face thereof; a casing having two upright pieces and a cross piece removably mounted in a groove of the corresponding piece of said frame; fillisters formed in at least the upright pieces of said casing; a door panel adapted to register with said fillisters; and a reversible hinge member pivotally mounting said door panel to one of the upright pieces of said casing; said fillisters being symmetrical with respect to a plane perpendicular to the plane defined by said panel and extending through the central vertical axis thereof.
