Description

Porte articulee coulissante. L'invention a pour objet une Porte articulee coulissante, caracterisee en ce qu'elle est constituee par des elements articules les uns aux autres par des articulations verti- cales et suspendus ä des chariots de Suspen sion susceptibles de rouler Sur un rail supe- rieur, 1'uii au moins des elements d'extremite etant libre de pivoter par rapport ä 1'element adjacent, cle maniei-e ä pouvoir s'ouvrir ä la fa#,on d'un port.illon monte Sur Bonds, tandis que les autr es elements sont au contraire tenus de suivre le trace du rail. Sliding hinged door. The subject of the invention is a sliding hinged door, characterized in that it consists of elements hinged to each other by vertical hinges and suspended from suspension carriages capable of rolling on an upper rail. , at least one of the end elements being free to pivot relative to the adjacent element, the key to being able to open in the manner of a port.illon mounted on Bonds, while the other elements are, on the contrary, required to follow the track of the rail.

0n connait dejä des Portes articulees cou- lissantes dann lesquelles tous les e1einents sont suspendus ä un rail et obliges de suivre le trace de celui-ei. De telles portes fonction- nent ä la facon d'un rideau articule qu'on deplacerait horizontalement et non plus verti- calement. comme les rideaux articules usuell. Leur manoeuvre est malaisee, notamment pour 1'ouverture qui doit s'effectuei- entierement ä partir de 1'exterieur. 4vec la Porte suiv ant 1'invention, au eontraire, la manceuvre de cou- lissement peut s'effectuer ä partir de Finte rieur aussi bien pour 1'ouverture que pour la fermeture, 1'element pivotaxit jouant 1e Ale dune Porte secondaire qui permet ä 1'usager d'acceder ä 1'interieur sans avoir besoin de faire coulisser 1'ensemble des elements. We already know hinged sliding doors in which all the elements are suspended from a rail and forced to follow the track of the latter. Such doors function like an articulated curtain which is moved horizontally and no longer vertically. like the usual hinged curtains. Their operation is difficult, in particular for the opening which must be carried out entirely from the outside. With the door according to the invention, on the contrary, the sliding maneuver can be carried out from the inside both for opening and for closing, the pivoting element acting as the first element of a secondary door which allows the user to access the interior without having to slide all the elements.

Le dessin annexe montre, ä titre d'exem- ple, une forme d'execution de Fobjet de 1'in- vention. The accompanying drawing shows, by way of example, one embodiment of the object of the invention.

La Porte representee comprend six ele- ments 1, la et lb (fig. 1 et 3) dont chacun est constitue par un panneau rectangulaire, Fait par exemple en bois ou en t61e legere. Ces elements sont articules les uns aux autres par des charnieres ? (fig. 3, 5 et 6) disposees sui- vant des axes d'articulation verticaux. Si 1'on considere deux elements adjacents, Tune des charnieres qui les relient 1'un ä 1'autre de <RTI ID="0001.0270" WI="9" HE="4" LX="1095" LY="1928"> facon articulee est disposee ä la Partie supe- rieure des elements et son axe d'articulation 3 se prolonge vers 1e haut pour se fixer, par exemple par soudure, ä un chariot 4 pourvu de deux galets 5 qui roulent Sur un rail supe- rieur 6 fixe au mur par des Supports tels que 7. L'extremite inferieure de Faxe 3 est pourvue de butees, telles que des ecrous 8, par 1e moyen desquelles il peut transmettre au chariot 4 la charge resultant du poids des ele- ments coiisid6res. The door represented comprises six elements 1, la and lb (fig. 1 and 3) each of which is constituted by a rectangular panel, made for example of wood or light sheet metal. These elements are articulated to each other by hinges? (fig. 3, 5 and 6) arranged along vertical axes of articulation. If we consider two adjacent elements, one of the hinges that connect them to one another of <RTI ID="0001.0270" WI="9" HE="4" LX="1095" LY="1928" > Articulated way is arranged at the upper part of the elements and its axis of articulation 3 extends upwards to be fixed, for example by welding, to a carriage 4 provided with two rollers 5 which roll on a upper rail. 6 fixed to the wall by Supports such as 7. The lower end of Faxe 3 is provided with stops, such as nuts 8, by means of which it can transmit to the carriage 4 the load resulting from the weight of the elements considered. .

L'im des elements extremes (element la en fig. 3) comporte dans son angle sup6rieur libre une ferrure semblable ä la moitie dune charniere telle que 2 et cette ferrure Porte egalement un axe vertical depassant vers 1e haut et attache ä un chariot de suspension roulant sur 1e rail 6. Lautre element extreme (e16ment 1b en fig. 3) est au contraire libre de pivoter par rapport ä 1'element, voisin au- tour de laxe geonietrique vertical des eliar- nieres 2 reliant ees deux elements. The im of the extreme elements (element la in fig. 3) comprises in its upper free angle a fitting similar to half of a hinge such as 2 and this fitting also carries a vertical axis projecting upwards and attaches to a suspension carriage rolling on the first rail 6. The other extreme element (e16ment 1b in FIG. 3) is, on the contrary, free to pivot with respect to the neighboring element around the vertical geometric axis of the eliarnieres 2 connecting these two elements.

A la Position de fermeture de la Porte, 1'e1ement la bute contre des butees 9 (fig. 3) fixees au inur. L'616ment 1.b Porte une ser- rure 10 qui peut eire de n'importe quel type eourant, par exemple du genre des serrures oti verrous d'appartements, 1e pene de Bette ser- rure s'engageant dans une gäche 11 scellee au mur, lorsque ledit e1ement 1b est referme contre celiü-ci. In the closed position of the door, the element abuts against stops 9 (fig. 3) fixed to the heart. The element 1.b carries a lock 10 which can be of any common type, for example of the type of locks or apartment locks, the first bolt of Bette lock engaging in a sealed keeper 11 to the wall, when said element 1b is closed against it.

Le rail 6 s'etend horizontalement au-des- sus de Pouverture que la Porte < loit fermer. 11 se prolonge au-delä de 1'61ement 1b (fig.3 et 4) et il est courbe de maniere ä s'etendre en ligne droite contre 1e mur lateral du loeal sur une longueur suffisante pour permettre 1'effacement de la Porte, comme il est eonnu avee les Portes articulees existantes. Rail 6 extends horizontally above the opening which the door is to close. 11 extends beyond element 1b (fig.3 and 4) and is curved so as to extend in a straight line against the side wall of the room over a sufficient length to allow the Door to be erased, as known with existing Hinged Doors.

Au bas de I'element 1 auquel s'articule 1'element pivotant 1b et au voisinage de 1'arti- culation commune de ces deux 61ements est dispose un verrou vertical 12 (fig. 3 et 7) qu'on peut enfoncer dans un trou prevu Jans 1e sol, ce verrou etant guid'e, ä la fa@on con- nue, par un guide cylindrique 13 pourvu dune echancrure en forme gensrale de C, dann laquelle est loge un goujon radial soli- daire du verrou 12, qui permet de bloquer ce verrou ä, la Position levee ou ä, la Position abaissee. At the bottom of the element 1 to which the pivoting element 1b is articulated and in the vicinity of the common articulation of these two elements is placed a vertical lock 12 (fig. 3 and 7) which can be inserted into a hole provided in the ground, this bolt being guided, in the known way, by a cylindrical guide 13 provided with a notch in the general form of C, in which is housed a radial pin integral with the bolt 12, which allows this lock to be blocked ä, the raised position or ä, the lowered position.

Le Bord inferieur des element.s 1 et 1b est guide par des sabots 14 (fig. 5) scelles au sol. Ces sabots sont convenablement arrondis, de maniere ä ne pas gener 1e Passage des roues de vshicules. Ils sont pr6ferablement disposes, comme montr6 aux fig. 1. et 3, au droit des articulations des 616nlents adjacents. Il West pas prevu de sabot de gliidage au droit de 1'element 1b pour laisser ä celui-ei tonte libert6 de pivoter sur ses charnieres cl'art.icu- lation ä 1'element 1. voisin. The lower edge of the element.s 1 and 1b is guided by shoes 14 (fig. 5) sealed to the ground. These shoes are suitably rounded, so as not to interfere with the passage of the vehicle wheels. They are preferably arranged, as shown in figs. 1. and 3, to the right of the joints of the adjacent 616nlents. There is no provision for a sliding shoe at the right of the element 1b to allow the latter the freedom to pivot on its hinges of the joint to the neighboring element 1.

Le fonctionnement est 1e suivant: A la Position de fermet.ure, 1'element extreme 1a est pouss6 contre les but6es 9, comme montre en fig. 3. L'e16ment oppose 1b est ferme contre 1e mur et. v errouil16 en Posi tion par sa serrure 10 et la gäelie 11.. L'en- semble des el6ments lcc, 1 et 1b est ainsi retenu longitudinalement entre les butees 9 et la gäche 11 et est donc immobilis6 sur 1e rail 6. Cet enseinble est, d'autre Part, retenu trans- #versalement, dune pari, par 1e rail 6 lui- mAme, d'autre Part, par les sabots inferieuns de guidage 14. The operation is as follows: At the Closing Position, the extreme element 1a is pushed against the stops 9, as shown in fig. 3. The opposite element 1b is closed against the wall and. lock 16 in position by its lock 10 and latch 11. is, on the other hand, retained transversely, dune bet, by the first rail 6 itself, on the other hand, by the lower guide shoes 14.

Pbur ouvrir la port.e ä partir de 1'exte- rieur, an commence par agir sur la serrure 1.0 ä 1'aide dune cle appropriee, et Fon fait pi- voter 1'element 1b sur ses charnieres 'a la fa- e,on d'un poriillon; an peiit ainsi entrer dans 1e local et d6verrouiller 1e verrou 12. 0n rabat alors completement 1'element 1b contre 1'e16- ment 1 voisin ä la fa@on indiquee en traits interrompus en fig. 4. 0n repousse enfin tont 1'ensemble des elenients 7.a, 1 et 1b 1e long du rail 6 jusqu'ä ce qu'on ait entierement, de- gage 1'ouverture que la Porte fermait. To open the door from the outside, an begins by acting on the lock 1.0 with the aid of an appropriate key, and Fon makes the element 1b pivot on its hinges at the bottom. ,on of a peep; one can thus enter the room and unlock the lock 12. One then completely folds the element 1b against the neighboring element 1 in the manner shown in broken lines in FIG. 4. Finally, all of the elements 7.a, 1 and 1b are pushed back along the rail 6 until the opening that the door was closing has been completely cleared.

Pour ouvrir la Porte ä partir de 1'inte- rieur, an procede de fagon analogue ä ceci pres qu'on peut manceuvrer le verrou 12 avant. d'ouvrir 1'element 1b ä. 1a, faeon d'un por- tillon. To open the door from the inside, an analogous procedure except that the front lock 12 can be operated. to open element 1b ä. 1a, way of a gate.

0n comprend sans explications complemen- taires que la fermeture s'opere en procedant de fa@on inverse et en utilisant 6ventuelle- ment 1'element 1b comme portillon de sortie qu'on referme derriere soi. It is understood without further explanation that the closing takes place by proceeding in the opposite way and possibly using the element 1b as an exit gate which is closed behind oneself.

0n notera que 1e verrou 12 ne joue qu'un röle accessoire de securite et qu'il West nulle- ment indispensable lorsque les sabots 14 sont correctement etablis et que 1'ecartement entre les butees 9 et la Bäche 11 ne presente pas un jeu exagere par rapport ä la longueur totale de 1'ensemble des elements. La Porte representee presente encore cet avantage important quelle permet, 1e cas eclieant, de faire eommencer la courbe du rail 6 non pas au-dessus du Bord vertical exte- rieur du portillon la, comme montre en traits pleins en fig. 4, mais au-dessus du bord vertieal interieur de celui-ei, comme indique en traits interrompus en 6'. 0n peut ainsi etablir une Porte s'etendant ä peu pres sur toute la largeur du local interesse, ce qui est. partieulierement avantageux pour la realisa- tion de garages quand an ne dispose que d'un espace restreint en largeur. It will be noted that the lock 12 only plays an accessory safety role and that it is in no way essential when the shoes 14 are correctly established and the distance between the stops 9 and the cover 11 does not present excessive play. relative to the total length of all the elements. The Door represented still has this important advantage that it allows, in the first case, to start the curve of the rail 6 not above the vertical outer edge of the gate 1a, as shown in solid lines in FIG. 4, but above the inner vertical edge thereof, as indicated in dashed lines at 6'. 0n can thus establish a Door extending more or less over the entire width of the room concerned, which is. particularly advantageous for the construction of garages when only a limited space is available in width.
