Definitions

• the present invention relates to the field of gates, gantries or the like and more particularly a sliding gate with two leaves allowing a simple and fast installation.
• the swing gates In the domain of portals, there are essentially two types of portal, gates and casements called sliding gates.
• the swing gates generally comprise two hinged doors, by means of hinges, masonry pillars that it is necessary to manufacture, said pillars supporting the weight of the gate and the multiple openings-closures to which they are subjected. These pillars are usually made using prefabricated elements.
• casement gates are not suitable for all types of terrain, especially sloping grounds or low-lying sites.
• sliding gates are more suitable for sloping terrain or terrain with low clearance.
• Sliding gates are usually constituted by a leaf sliding on a rail extending between two vertical pillars, said leaf being driven in translation by motorized means.
• Said rail is either fixed on a concrete foundation or positioned in a chute so that it does not protrude from the ground.
• said rail may be substituted by a beam extending between the pillars and carrying carriages on which the leaf rests.
• Such sliding gates are described in particular in documents EP 0 392 053, WO 2012/095650 and WO 2012/106633.
• EP 0 392 053 discloses a laterally sliding gate whose leaf is held in its upper part by fixed rollers to prevent lateral tilting and which has a lower chord whose section has the shape of a box.
• the leaf rests on carrier rollers held fixed apart in the direction of sliding outside the opening of the gate and extending transversely over the width of the lower chord.
• the gate also comprises a rail extending along the leaf, on an outer face of the lower chord of the leaf, and open towards the bottom in which is fixed a chain or a rack cooperating with a drive wheel engaged with a electric motor provided on one side of the leaf.
• WO 2012/095650 discloses a sliding gate whose leaf slides on a rail extending between two vertical pillars, said leaf being driven in translation by motorized means.
• Said leaf comprises a plurality of modular components that can engage so that they can be disengaged from one another to produce a leaf at the desired length.
• WO 2012/106633 discloses a so-called self-supporting sliding gate whose leaf comprises wheels cooperating with a rail extending between two vertical pillars, said leaf being driven in translation by motorized means.
• Said motorized means comprise a drive rail secured to the leaf and comprising a first driving surface cooperating with a drive wheel in engagement with a drive motor.
• One of the aims of the invention is therefore to overcome these disadvantages by providing a sliding gate with two leaves of simple and inexpensive design and allowing a quick and easy installation of said gate.
• a sliding gate comprising at least two vertical pillars, a leaf, means for supporting said leaf and motorized means able to drive said leaf in translation; said gate is remarkable in that each pillar consists of two parallel vertical uprights whose lower and upper ends are connected by a lower plate and respectively an upper plate, a carriage secured to the lower plate and having at least two pairs of rollers on which support a leaf, a so-called guiding shoe integral with the inner face of an upright, extending close to the upper end of said upright and adapted to cooperate with a longitudinal rail integral with one leaf faces, and drive means secured to said upright, extending between the carriage and the pad, and cooperating with complementary drive means integral with the leaf.
• the sliding gate according to the invention allows rapid installation in that it does not have rails between the pillars. When laying, it is just necessary to ensure the coaxiality and coplanarity of the carriages of both pillars, making installation quick and easy.
• Said carriage consists of an inverted T-shaped beam whose base is integral with the lower plate and whose rod carries at its upper end the pairs of roller.
• Said beam protrudes on both sides of the pillar uprights.
• the free ends of the beam carry respectively at least one pair of rollers, and preferably two pairs of rollers.
• the lower end of the leaf comprises a longitudinal rail of substantially parallelepipedal cross section, the lower wall is provided with a longitudinal slot to allow the passage of the rod of the beam forming the carriage, the rollers bearing on the inner walls of said rail.
• said drive means consist, preferably, in an electric motor integral with a pillar upright and whose output shaft is provided with a toothed wheel cooperating with a rack integral with the leaf.
• Said rack consists of a U-shaped cross section longitudinal section, secured to one side of the leaf and whose branches are oriented downwards, a first branch being secured to the leaf and the second branch having at its lower end teeth cooperating with the toothed wheel.
