Description

A DEVICE FOR MOVING GATES SLIDING ALONG CURVED TRAJECTORIES
* * * * *
The invention relates to the sector of devices for moving sliding gates. More in detail, the invention relates to a device for moving gates sliding along curved trajectories, a related kit and a gate comprising this device. As is known, reversible opening of sliding gates, whether for pedestrians or vehicles, is commonly obtained by means of electromechanical devices adapted to determine an adequate lateral translation on specific rectilinear rails fixed to the ground.
As is also known, the aforesaid devices for moving sliding gates generally have the following negative points:
- they determine the substantial doubling of the footprint of gates, as they require additional lateral spaces adapted to contain said gates during the maximum opening thereof;
- they can make it impossible to use the whole opening front of the gates, as the related mechanical moving devices can limit lateral translation of said gates on the specific rails;
- they can only be combined with gates of regular shape, to avoid the occurrence of potential impediments to the correct lateral translation of said gates on the rails;
- they need perfectly rectilinear rails, laid with great care, also with reference to planarity, to prevent the gates from stopping or the occurrence of excessive resistance to their movement.
Therefore, the object of the invention is to overcome the aforesaid negative points of devices for moving gates sliding along rectilinear trajectories. The object of the invention is achieved with a device for moving gates sliding along curved trajectories, according to the main independent claim 1.
Further characteristics of the invention are contained in the dependent claims.
A device for moving sliding gates according to the invention achieves the following important advantages:
- it maintains the total footprint of the gates along the closing front of the property to be closed substantially unchanged, as it does not require the additional lateral spaces normally required to contain said gates during maximum opening;
- it allows the whole opening front of the gates to be utilized;
- it can be used in combination with gates of any shape and size;
- it reduces the risk of any impacts of the gates with obstacles placed in proximity of the front or rear side thereof;
- it allows execution of the manual or motorized movement of the gates;
- it allows simplification of laying of the rails associated with the gates and of the movement device itself.
Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will be more evident from the detailed description set forth below, with the aid of the figures, which show a preferred implementation thereof, illustrated by way of non-limiting example, wherein:
- Fig. 1 shows, in a complete axonometric view, the structural form of a device for moving gates sliding along curved trajectories, according to the invention;
- Figs. 2-3 show, respectively in a plan side view and in an exploded axonometric view, some internal structural details of said device;
- Fig. 4 shows in a complete axonometric view, a variant of embodiment of the same device.
With reference to the details of Figs. 1-2-3, a device 1 for moving gates sliding along curved trajectories according to the invention essentially comprises:
- a movable pillar 2, adapted to support a gate C, sliding along a curvilinear rail 10 by means of pivoting rollers 9;
- a base 11 for the movable pillar 2, comprising a slide 14, with which said movable pillar 2 is rotatably associated, slidably movable along a rectilinear rail 16, housed inside a box-like container 12, provided with a slotted cover 13, adapted to be fixed to the ground or to be buried under the surface on which the curvilinear rail 10 rests;
- a composite plate 17, integral with the movable pillar 2, adapted to allow the connection of said movable pillar 2 to the slide 14 and rotation in the two directions of said movable pillar 2 on said slide 14, by means of pin mechanical connecting means 18;
- a motor assembly 19 with reversing rotation, associated with the movable pillar 2, supplied by mains power and/or rechargeable batteries, actuated by a control unit (not shown), adapted to determine the sliding of the gate C along the curvilinear rail 10. The movable pillar 2 comprises first 3 and second 4 overhanging arms, with which there are rotatably associated first 5 and second 6 idle rollers, rotatable about axes orthogonal to said movable pillar 2, adapted to be contained and to slide inside first 7 and second 8 rectilinear guides provided on the gate C, to support this latter, and to exchange both traction and thrust forces with said guides 7, 8 based on the direction of movement of the gate C.
The slide 14 of the base 11 comprises bearings 15 adapted to allow the mechanical connection thereof to the rectilinear rail 16 and the sliding in the two directions along this rail.
The motor assembly 19 is provided on the plate 17 of the movable pillar 2, so as to be connected mechanically, by means of a pinion 23, actuated by the movement of the drive shaft, to a rectilinear rack 20 associated with the second rectilinear guide 8 provided on the gate C.
Also associated with said second rectilinear guide 8 are the pivoting rollers 9, adapted to allow the sliding of the gate C along the curvilinear rail 10.
Advantageously, the aforesaid device 1 can be produced and marketed as an assembly kit applicable to gates C of any shape and size, and to sliding gates C, either during installation or to gates that are already installed, to make them slide along a curved trajectory.
In conformity with the invention, operation of the aforesaid device 1 for moving gates C sliding along curved trajectories can be summarized as described below.
The movable pillar 2 rests on the base 11 below, which is fixed to the ground or previously buried under the surface on which the curvilinear rail 10 rests by means of the box-like container 12 that defines the load- bearing structure thereof.
The movable pillar 2 determines supporting of the gate C by means of the overhanging arms 3, 4 integral therewith, connected to the gate C by means of the respective idle rollers 5, 6 sliding inside the rectilinear guides 7, 8 provided at a suitable height on the gate C.
The gate C also rests on the curvilinear rail 10 below, by means of the pivoting rollers 9 provided on the lower rectilinear guide 8. Acting by means of the pinion 23 on the rack 20, also provided on the rectilinear guide 8, the motor assembly 19 applies a driving force to the gate C adapted to determine the sliding thereof along the curvilinear rail 10, by means of the aforesaid pivoting rollers 9.
Acting on said rack 20, the motor assembly 19 also determines the simultaneous sliding of the rectilinear guides 7, 8 of the gate C on the idle rollers 5, 6 of the overhanging arms 3, 4 of the movable pillar 2.
The sliding of the gate C along the curvilinear rail 10 determines the consequent shifting of said gate C from a closing position P1 to an open position P2, each corresponding to the opposite end of the same curvilinear rail 10.
Advantageously, the sliding of the gate C along the curvilinear trajectory delineated by the curvilinear rail 10 arranges said gate C laterally and almost orthogonal to the closing front of the property, upon reaching the open position P2.
The application of a driving force in the opposite direction to the gate C, supplied by the motor assembly 19, determines the reversal of sliding of the gate C along the curvilinear rail 10 and the simultaneous reversal of sliding of the rectilinear guides 7, 8 of the gate C on the idle rollers 5, 6 of the overhanging arms 3, 4 of the movable pillar 2, thereby allowing said gate C to return to the closing position P1 on the curvilinear rail 10.
The sliding of the gate C on the curvilinear rail 10 is transmitted to the movable pillar 2 through the sliding of the rectilinear guides 7, 8 of said gate C on the idle rollers 5, 6 of the overhanging arms 3, 4 of said movable pillar 2, thereby determining a forced rotation of the movable pillar 2 on the slide 14 of the base 11.
The rotation of the movable pillar 2 on the slide 14 is enabled by pin or hinge mechanical connecting means 18, adapted to rotatably connect said movable pillar 2 to said slide 14, by means of the plate 17 integral therewith.
The forced rotation of said movable pillar 2 on said slide 14 determines an orientation of the overhanging arms 3, 4 constantly perpendicular to the rectilinear guides 7, 8 of the gate C.
The sliding of the gate C along the curvilinear rail 10 also determines a forced translation of the movable pillar 2 on the rectilinear rail 16, housed inside the box-like container 12 defining the load-bearing structure of the base 11 , on which, by means of bearings 15, the aforesaid slide 14 slides. The forced translation of the movable pillar 2 on the rectilinear rail 16 is simultaneous to the forced rotation thereof on the aforesaid slide 14, so that the movement of the movable pillar 2, as a whole, can be defined as roto-translation.
More in detail:
- the sliding of the gate C from the closing position P1 toward the central portion of the curvilinear rail 10 exerts on the movable pillar 2 a thrust adapted to determine a proportional reverse movement thereof on the rectilinear rail 16;
- the sliding of the gate C from the central portion of the curvilinear rail 10 toward the closing position P2 exerts on the movable pillar 2 a traction adapted to determine a proportional forward movement thereof on the rectilinear rail 16.
The translation of the movable pillar 2 on the rectilinear rail 16 also determines a constant maintenance of the distance existing between the overhanging arms 3, 4 and the rectilinear guides 7, 8 of the gate C, in this way preventing the occurrence of mechanical blocks adapted to prevent the sliding of said gate C on the curvilinear rail 10 and/or the sliding of said rectilinear guides 7, 8 on the idle rollers 5, 6 of said overhanging arms 3, 4.
The translation of the movable pillar 2 on the rectilinear rail 10 also determines a constant maintenance of the distance existing between the movable pillar 2 and the gate C, in this way determining the constant mechanical connection of the motor assembly 19 with the rectilinear rack 20, arranged on the rectilinear guide 8, and the consequent constant application of the driving force necessary to produce the desired sliding of the gate C along the aforesaid curvilinear rail 10.
In a possible variant of embodiment, shown in Fig. 4, the upper support means can be replaced by an overhanging arm 21 , integral with the movable pillar 2, with which there are rotatably associated rollers 22, rotating about vertical axes, between which the upper transverse upright M of the gate C can slide, in this case acting as guide means.
In possible further variants of embodiment (not illustrated), or in the case of a power outage, the electromechanical driving force supplied by the motor assembly 19 can be replaced by muscular driving force supplied by a user of the device 1 and applied manually directly to the structure of the gate C.
