Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a metallic frame structure for wide opening sliding closures, with a vertical opening, the profile of which is of reduced overall visual dimensions.
  • Closures are known, both in the case of internal partitions of buildings and in the case of openings made along the walls that delimit the building, that consist of entrance or through doors and windows for airing and lighting the surroundings.
  • the designers often resort to large glazed type openings that are constructed by means of openings where at least one of the doors, through a lifting mechanism, is to be raised from its resting position, to slide sideways on guides, thus allowing the passage of people and objects.
  • the said openings have one or more longitudinally mobile doors, that when in the rest position, for example closed, are raised from the respective seat by means of a mechanism operated through the rotation of a handle with a lever arm or rather developed lever arm, to then be provided with wheels along the inferior side to connect correspondingly to tracks, sliding freely to and fro until reaching the desired position.
  • the sliding doors in one case line themselves up to the static part of the closure and in a second case are concealed on the inside of a compartment built into in the perimeter wall.
  • EP0551961 deals with the field of suspension sliding doors with steel components. This requires, as for the previous cases, the fixing to the back of the external facade of the opening, along the upper edge, of a metal profile, essentially in a “C” shape which, along the base side, is equipped with a longitudinal rail. On said track there is at least one sliding wheel, fitted to an arm that on its lower part supports the frame of the closure. The lower part of the sliding door is close to the floor and is separated from the latter by the interposition of a watertight seal attached along the lower profile of the door. In this hypothesis, the door, always on the lower part, slides along the back of an anterior metal profile, against which the edge of the panel can make contact.
  • Said anterior metal profile has a side perpendicular to the ground which the lower part of the panel rests on, while on the opposite side there is an inclined side, longitudinally ribbed by means of a reinforcing perpendicular strip, that being inside the profile is not visible.
  • the sliding mechanism is fixed in correspondence to the interface facing towards the exterior of the second box section steel profile, adhered to the lower profile of the chassis that includes the lower part of the covering sheet.
  • the shaping of the chassis that serves the purpose of housing the sliding mechanism it comprises of the substantially inclined upper side followed by a vertical wall that extends toward the floor, remaining separated.
  • the closure has excessive dimensions that are particularly complex and difficult to construct, above all in terms of the longitudinal connection of sections of different material.
  • the visual dimension of the frame is even more important than the conventional aspects, verifiable in the doors that have the steel tubular profile containing the guides and sliding mechanisms.
  • the aim of this invention is also to avoid the above-mentioned drawbacks.
  • a first aim intends to reduce significantly the obviousness of the profile that marks out the covering glass. This was possible due to the fact that the glass is positioned substantially out of alignment with respect to the sliding means, which rest on the respective profile, slightly drawn back towards the interior environment with respect to conventional closures. In this way, the height of the profile area is to be reduced in correspondence with the anterior carriage housing seat, giving as a whole a greater brightness and visual width.
  • DE19849518 (Witzel) besides the fact that this concerns a different closure, with the sole similarity being that it also presents the covering glass out of alignment, it requires for the support of the glass a profile of aluminum assembled with other support sections, that for its necessary structure and shape, presents a rather important visual dimension and in any case far superior dimension with respect to the solution that is the object of this invention.
  • the glass application seat itself obliged by the shaping of the frame profile, is made with greater height with respect to the upper limit of the profile that delimits the area holding the sliding carriages.
  • the application seat of the edge of the glass, in addition to being beside the carriage holding seat is also of a lower height with respect to the upper limit of the area of the profile that delimits the said holding seat.
  • a second purpose consists in achieving a closure that in spite of having weight content, allows the maintenance of a good level of burglar-resistance, easy construction and is easily put into action.
  • DE19849518 Wizel
  • athird purpose intends to construct a closure for the specific purpose, not particularly complex, valuable for good technological content for the company, improving considerably the offer on the market with a control of production costs.
  • FIG. 1 represents a view in particular of the lower and upper area of the closure of the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a cross sectional view of a first support profile of the covering glass for the closure in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 3 is a cross sectional view of a variant of the support profile of the covering glass, also for the closure of FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 4 is a cross sectional view of a third variant of the support profile of the covering glass, also for the closure of FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 5 is a cross sectional view of a fourth variant of the support profile of the covering glass, for the closure of FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 6 is a cross sectional view of a fifth variant of the support profile of the covering glass, also for the closure of FIG. 1.
  • closure 1 particularly for a vertically sliding door, consists of a frame that includes at least one tubular rectilinear profile 2 a - 2 e, 2 f, and is metallic, preferably steel, that provides internally a seat S.
  • the said seat S is developed in width, in such a way, that in the case that the profile 2 a - 2 e is introduced into the lower area of the closure 1 , as in one case, to house the carriages 3 as components of closing and movement means of closure 1 .
  • the seat S obtained longitudinally with respect to the profile 2 a - 2 e, disposes of a first area close to the side 20 facing towards the exterior of the profile 2 a - 2 e, which receives the carriages 3 , while the adjacent area remains in an essentially empty state.
  • the base side 22 of the profile 2 a - 2 e, along the housing area for the carriages 3 disposes of a slight rectilinear recess in the manner of a channel, 220 , which allows the groove portion 30 of the carriages 3 to project from the profile 2 a - 2 e to be introduced in correspondence to a corresponding track 4 .
  • the shape of the profile 2 a - 2 e the edges of which are almost all rounded, have substantially, two parallel sides, respectively one side facing towards the exterior 20 , and one side facing towards the interior 21 of the environment, both essentially orthogonal with respect to the base side 22 .
  • the side facing towards the exterior 20 is high enough to contain the carriages 3 and has higher ends coinciding with the base of an inclined connecting side 23 .
  • the connecting inclined side 23 in this case, is a flat surface and extends over the area that houses the carriages 3 then, projects inwards towards the interior, to have a short section in the manner of a shoulder 24 perpendicular to the following flat surface 25 .
  • the flat surface 25 constituting its external seat, is functional due to the fact that it allows the stop of the lower edge of a pane 5 , held in contact against the shoulder 24 by a corresponding and opposite spline 6 of the pressure type.
  • the upper part of the closure 1 requires a guide profile 7 fixed along the upper beam that delimits the light aperture, the profile of which 7 disposes of a wall 70 , perpendicular to the base side, positioned in closer correspondence to the internal facade of the closure 1 .
  • a guide profile 7 fixed along the upper beam that delimits the light aperture, the profile of which 7 disposes of a wall 70 , perpendicular to the base side, positioned in closer correspondence to the internal facade of the closure 1 .
  • a second and underlying profile 2 f perpendicular in respect to the base portion 22 f.
  • Said second profile 2 f receives the upper edge of the glass 5 and is of an almost identical section to the section of the corresponding profile 2 a, which receives the lower side of the glass 5 , except by shape of the guide channel 220 f.
  • the said guide channel 220 f has at least some of the longitudinal seats 221 , parallel, on the interior of which the couple by an oblique inclined connecting section, that joins said upper side 23 d to the anterior side 20 .
  • the same sections of one of the profiles 2 a - 2 e, 2 f can be used to constitute the lateral upright of the frame of at least one door of the closure, joining the ends of the lower profile 2 a to those of the upper profile 2 f, in the end bordering peripherally the edge of the glass 5 .
