In this embodiment, for each part, the shaft is advantageously connected to a sleeve housed in a housing so as to be able to orient the direction of the shaft.
Les orifices sont, de préférence, destinés à engager des corps présentant un logement cylindrique et sont munis de moyens pour solidariser lesdits corps à ladite plaque, le logement cylindrique recevant le man¬ chon et étant associé à un moyen pour maintenir le manchon dans le logement. De façon avantageuse, une ou des plaquettes ou bagues sont insérées dans le logement pour ajuster la position de l'arbre entre la face intérieure et la face extérieure de la plaque.The orifices are preferably intended to engage bodies having a cylindrical housing and are provided with means for securing said bodies to said plate, the cylindrical housing receiving the sleeve and being associated with means for holding the sleeve in the housing. . Advantageously, one or more plates or rings are inserted in the housing to adjust the position of the shaft between the inner face and the outer face of the plate.
D'autres particularités et détails de l'invention ressortiront de la description détaillée suivante dans laquelle il est fait référence aux dessins ci-annexéε. Dans ces dessins : la figure 1 montre une feuille ou plaque suivant l'invention attachée à une structure ; les figures 2 et 3 sont des vues partielles en coupe suivant les signes II-II et III-III de la feuille représentée à la figure 1 ; la figure 4 est une vue en coupe selon la ligne IV- IV du dispositif représenté à la figure 2, et la figure 5 est une vue d'une feuille similaire à celle représentée à la figure 1. La figure 1 montre une vitre 1 à double parois 2,3 attachée au moyen de quatre dispositifs 4 à une structure 5. Ces dispositifs ou éléments permettent la fixation de la vitre 1 au voisinage de ses quatre coins. La plaque suivant l'invention est associée à des parties d'éléments ou dispositifs de fixation, ces parties comprenant chacune un arbre 8 s 'étendant entre les parois 2,3 (c'est-à-dire entre la face extérieure 16 et la face intérieure 15 de la plaque). Cet arbre 8 sert d'attache à une pièce de liaison 40 d'un élément de fixation 4 et permet un mouvement de translation X entre la plaque et la pièce de liaison.Other particularities and details of the invention will emerge from the following detailed description in which reference is made to the accompanying drawings. In these drawings: FIG. 1 shows a sheet or plate according to the invention attached to a structure; Figures 2 and 3 are partial sectional views along signs II-II and III-III of the sheet shown in Figure 1; Figure 4 is a sectional view along line IV-IV of the device shown in Figure 2, and Figure 5 is a view of a sheet similar to that shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 shows a window 1 to double walls 2,3 attached by means of four devices 4 to a structure 5. These devices or elements allow the glass 1 to be fixed in the vicinity of its four corners. The plate according to the invention is associated with parts of fastening elements or devices, these parts each comprising a shaft 8 extending between the walls 2,3 (that is to say between the outer face 16 and the inner face 15 of the plate). This shaft 8 serves to attach to a connecting piece 40 of a fixing element 4 and allows a translational movement X between the plate and the connecting piece.
La plaque représentée à la figure 1 est associée à quatre parties 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d d'éléments de fixation dont les arbres s'étendent dans des directions α,(3,ε,<5 se coupant en un point P, tel qu'un point situé dans le plan de symétrie vertical de la plaque ou tel que le point central de la plaque.The plate shown in Figure 1 is associated with four parts 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d of fasteners whose shafts extend in directions α, (3, ε, <5 intersecting at a point P, such than a point located in the vertical plane of symmetry of the plate or such as the central point of the plate.
Le dispositif 4 comprend une tige 40 dont une extrémité 41 est taraudée. Un boulon 6 dont le filet est vissé dans l'extrémité taraudée 41 de la tige permet de rendre solidaire la tige de la structure 5. L'autre extrémité 42 de la tige porte un élément 7 attaché à une partie du dispositif associée à la vitre 1- Cette partie comprend un arbre 8, tandis que l'élément 7 comprend un corps intermédiaire 9 présentant un canal livrant passage audit arbre 8 et une tête 10 associée audit corps 9 de manière à permettre un pivotement ou rotation R de la tête 10 par rapport au corps intermédiaire 9. La tête 10 portée par la tige 40 présente une cavité ou chambre annulaire s 'étendant entre une première ouverture 101 que présente une face 102 de la tête et une deuixeme ouverture 103 que présente la face 104 de la tête, face 104 qui est parallèle à la face 102.The device 4 comprises a rod 40, one end 41 of which is tapped. A bolt 6 whose thread is screwed into the threaded end 41 of the rod makes it possible to make the rod of the structure 5 integral. The other end 42 of the rod carries an element 7 attached to a part of the device associated with the window 1- This part comprises a shaft 8, while the element 7 comprises an intermediate body 9 having a channel providing passage to said shaft 8 and a head 10 associated with said body 9 so as to allow pivoting or rotation R of the head 10 by relation to the intermediate body 9. The head 10 carried by the rod 40 has an annular cavity or chamber extending between a first opening 101 which has a face 102 of the head and a second opening 103 which has the face 104 of the head, face 104 which is parallel to face 102.
Les ouvertures 101, 103 sont circulaires et présentent un diamètre Do supérieur au diamètre Da de l'arbre, avantageusement égal a environ 2 x Da. La pièce intermédiaire 9 est une pièce sphérique présentant un canal s 'étendant entre deux pôles de la pièce. La chambre annulaire quant a elle présente, entre lesdites ouvertures 101, 103, un diamètre De supérieur au diamètre de la sphère ou bille 9. Ainsi, les bords des ouvertures servent d'appui pour des parties de la sphère 9, mais également de butée pour maintenir une partie de la sphère 9 dans la cavité et pour limiter la rotation de la sphère 9 par rapport à la tête 10. L'arbre 8 qui est engagé dans le canal que présente la sphère 9 présente deux parties s 'étendant hors de ladite tête 10 et hors de ladite sphère 9. Les extrémités libres 11 de l'arbre sont engagées dans des orifices 12 que présente un manchon support 13 destiné à être associé, de préférence solidarisé à la vitre. Ces orifices s'étendent le long du manchon 13. Le corps intermédiaire ou sphère 9 peut dès lors coulisser (flèche X) le long dudit arbre 8 dans l'espace défini par la paroi intérieure du manchon 13 permettant ainsi de limiter ou d'éviter que des efforts dus par la dilatation de la vitre ne soient transmis ou ne doivent être repris par le dispositif de fixation. L'axe A-A s'étend avantageusement dans le plan médian de la vitre, c'est-à-dire dans un plan s'étendant entre les parois 2, 3 de la vitre et equidistant desdites parois. Le manchon 13 est, dans la forme de réalisation représentée, engagé dans une perforation que présente la vitre. Cette perforation s'étend à travers les deux parois 2, 3, c'est-à-dire entre les faces opposées 15, 16 de la vitre.The openings 101, 103 are circular and have a diameter Do greater than the diameter Da of the shaft, advantageously equal to approximately 2 x Da. The intermediate part 9 is a spherical part having a channel extending between two poles of the part. As for the annular chamber, it has, between said openings 101, 103, a diameter De greater than the diameter of the sphere or ball 9. Thus, the edges of the openings serve as support for parts of the sphere 9, but also as a stop to maintain part of the sphere 9 in the cavity and to limit the rotation of the sphere 9 relative to the head 10. The shaft 8 which is engaged in the channel presented by the sphere 9 has two parts extending out of said head 10 and out of said sphere 9. The free ends 11 of the shaft are engaged in orifices 12 that have a support sleeve 13 intended to be associated, preferably secured to the window. These orifices extend along the sleeve 13. The intermediate body or sphere 9 can therefore slide (arrow X) along said shaft 8 in the space defined by the inner wall of the sleeve 13 thus making it possible to limit or avoid that forces due to the expansion of the glass are not transmitted or must be taken up by the fixing device. The axis AA advantageously extends in the median plane of the window, that is to say in a plane extending between the walls 2, 3 of the window and equidistant from said walls. The sleeve 13 is, in the embodiment shown, engaged in a perforation that has the glass. This perforation extends through the two walls 2, 3, that is to say between the opposite faces 15, 16 of the glass.
Un moyen 17 permet le maintien en place ou la fixation du manchon 13 à la vitre 1.A means 17 allows the sleeve 13 to be held in place or fixed to the window 1.
Les parois 2, 3 de la vitre sont séparées l'une de l'autre par un profilé 18a et un joint 18b. Un tel profilé et joints s'étendent entre lesdites parois 2,3 au voisinage de la perforation de la vitre.The walls 2, 3 of the window are separated from each other by a profile 18a and a seal 18b. Such a profile and seals extend between said walls 2,3 in the vicinity of the perforation of the window.
Le moyen 17 comprend deux manchons 19, 20 associés l'un à l'autre au moyen de filets. Le premier manchon 19 porte une plaque circulaire 21 dont les bords sont bisseautés de manière à épouser la forme tronconique 40 de la partie supérieure de la perforation dans la paroi 2. Le deuxième manchon 20 porte une rondelle 22 destinée à prendre appui sur la face 15 de la paroi 3. Par vissage, les manchons 19, 20 sont rapprochés l'un de l'autre, de sorte que la rondelle 22 et la plaque 21 sont appuyées respectivement contre des faces extrêmes 15, 16 de la vitre éventuellement avec interposition d'un joint 19b. Entre, d'une part, les bords de la perforation de la vitre 1 et, d'autre part, les manchons 19, 20 est créée une chambre qui est remplie d'un joint 24. Pour le remplissage de cette chambre, le manchon 20 ainsi que la rondelle 22 présentent au moins une ouverture ou passage 25, 26. Une matière élastomère est injectée par le passage 25 du manchon 20 dans la chambre. L'air de ladite chambre est évacué par le passage 26 de la rondelle 22. Lorsque la chambre est remplie, de la matière sort par le passage 26 de manière à l'obturer.The means 17 comprises two sleeves 19, 20 associated with each other by means of threads. The first sleeve 19 carries a circular plate 21 whose edges are bevelled so as to match the frustoconical shape 40 of the upper part of the perforation in the wall 2. The second sleeve 20 carries a washer 22 intended to bear on the face 15 of the wall 3. By screwing, the sleeves 19, 20 are brought towards one another, so that the washer 22 and the plate 21 are pressed respectively against the end faces 15, 16 of the glass optionally with interposition d 'a seal 19b. Between, on the one hand, the edges of the perforation of the window 1 and, on the other hand, the sleeves 19, 20, a chamber is created which is filled with a seal 24. For the filling of this chamber, the sleeve 20 and the washer 22 have at least one opening or passage 25, 26. An elastomeric material is injected through the passage 25 of the sleeve 20 into the chamber. The air from said chamber is evacuated through the passage 26 of the washer 22. When the chamber is filled, material leaves through the passage 26 so as to close it.
Les manchons 19 et 20 définissent un logement dans lequel est logé le manchon muni de l'arbre 8. Une extrémité de ce logement est fermée par la plague 21, cette dernière servant de butée a une extrémité 27 du manchon 13. L'autre extrémité 28 dudit manchon 13 est bloquée dans le logement grâce à une bague 29 vissée le long d'un filet 30 que présente la paroi intérieure du manchon 20. Cette bague 23 porte avantageusement une rondelle 31 destinée à prendre appui contre la rondelle 22 du manchon 19 et destinée à couvrir les passages 26 de la rondelle 22. Cette bague 23 permet grâce a la pression qu'elle exerce sur le manchon 13 de maintenir l'arbre 8 dans une direction (α,3,...) déterminée.The sleeves 19 and 20 define a housing in which is housed the sleeve provided with the shaft 8. A end of this housing is closed by the ring 21, the latter serving as a stop at one end 27 of the sleeve 13. The other end 28 of said sleeve 13 is locked in the housing by means of a ring 29 screwed along a thread 30 that has the inner wall of the sleeve 20. This ring 23 advantageously carries a washer 31 intended to bear against the washer 22 of the sleeve 19 and intended to cover the passages 26 of the washer 22. This ring 23 allows thanks to the pressure that it exerts on the sleeve 13 to hold the shaft 8 in a determined direction (α, 3, ...).
Enfin, des bagues ou rondelles peuvent être insérées dans le logement entre la plaque 21 du manchon 19 et l'extrémité 27 du manchon 13 pour ajuster la position de l'arbre 8 entre les faces 15 et 16 de la vitre.Finally, rings or washers can be inserted in the housing between the plate 21 of the sleeve 19 and the end 27 of the sleeve 13 to adjust the position of the shaft 8 between the faces 15 and 16 of the glass.
La figure 1 montre une vitre 1 attachée à une structure au moyen de quatre dispositifs. Ces dispositifs sont logés dans des perforations situées aux quatre coins de la vitre. Les arbres 8 des dispositifs supérieurs 4a, 4b s'étendent dans des directions α, 3, inclinées par rapport à la ligne B-B rejoignant lesdites perforations supérieures. II en est de même pour les dispositifs 4c, 4d des perforations inférieurs. Dans la forme de réalisation, les directions α, 3, 6 et ε des arbres se coupent en un même point P.Figure 1 shows a window 1 attached to a structure by means of four devices. These devices are housed in perforations located at the four corners of the glass. The shafts 8 of the upper devices 4a, 4b extend in directions α, 3, inclined relative to the line B-B joining said upper perforations. It is the same for the devices 4c, 4d of the lower perforations. In the embodiment, the directions α, 3, 6 and ε of the trees intersect at the same point P.
Le manchon 13 permet de diriger la direction dans laquelle s'étend l'arbre 8 et permet dès lors è la vitre de se dilater librement dans cette direction.The sleeve 13 makes it possible to direct the direction in which the shaft 8 extends and therefore allows the glass to expand freely in this direction.
Le poids de la vitre est repris perpendicu¬ lairement à cette direction.The weight of the window is taken up perpendicularly to this direction.
La figure 5 montre une vitre suivant l'invention similaire à celle représentée à la figure 1 si ce n'est que les arbres 8 s'étendent dans des directions se coupant en un point P situé entre les plans des faces 15 et 16 mais hors de la vitre. Ceci permet d'assurer que le joint situé le long du bord 151 adjacent du point P ne soit pas soumis à des efforts dûs à la dilatation de la vitre. Figure 5 shows a window according to the invention similar to that shown in Figure 1 except that the shafts 8 extend in directions intersecting at a point P situated between the planes of the faces 15 and 16 but outside the window. This ensures that the seal located along the edge 151 adjacent to point P is not subjected to forces due to the expansion of the glass.
