Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif apportant un perfectionnement dans la phase finale de fermeture des portes pliantes à deux vantaux ou à deux fois deux vantaux utilisées plus généralement pour la fermeture de placards encastrés.The present invention relates to a device providing an improvement in the final phase of closing folding doors with two leaves or twice two leaves used more generally for closing built-in cupboards.

Selon une de ses applications préférentiel­les, mais non limitatives, elle vise un système permet­tant d'appliquer parfaitement le pourtour des vantaux sur le chambranle de la porte, supprimant tout jeu et entrebaillement. Ledit système apporte en plus un effet esthétique portes fermées si l'on souhaite dissimuler le chambranle.According to one of its preferred, but non-limiting, applications, it is aimed at a system making it possible to perfectly apply the periphery of the leaves to the door jamb, eliminating any play and overlapping. Said system also provides an aesthetic effect with the doors closed if one wishes to conceal the jamb.

De tous les mécanismes connus pour permettre le repliage des vantaux, ceux-ci font appel au moins à un rail de guidage fixé dans la partie supérieure du chambranle et dans lequel vient coulisser un doigt ou par­fois un petit galet fixé à l'extrémité supérieure de la partie libre du deuxième vantau assurant la fermeture. La configuration du rail est faite de telle manière que la combinaison rail-doigt ou galet maintienne suspendu le vantau de fermeture soulageant les charnières de liai­son des deux vantaux et les paumelles entre le chambranle et le premier vantau.Of all the mechanisms known for allowing folding of the leaves, these use at least one guide rail fixed in the upper part of the frame and in which slides a finger or sometimes a small roller fixed to the upper end of the free part of the second leaf ensuring closure. The configuration of the rail is made in such a way that the rail-finger or roller combination keeps the closing leaf suspended, relieving the hinges connecting the two leaves and the hinges between the jamb and the first leaf.

Toutes ces fermetures utilisant ce système exigent un certain jeu entre la partie supérieure des vantaux, le rail de guidage et le chambranle pour obtenir un bon fonctionnement.All these closures using this system require a certain play between the upper part of the leaves, the guide rail and the door frame to obtain correct operation.

Si l'invention conserve le principe du rail de guidage et doigt de positionnement du deuxième vantau pour per­mettre l'ouverture ou la fermeture de la porte, elle est carac­térisée en ce que le support du doigt de guidage est monté sur une coulisse.If the invention retains the principle of the guide rail and positioning finger of the second leaf to allow the door to be opened or closed, it is characterized in that the support of the guide finger is mounted on a slide.

La présente invention sera mieux comprise par la description qui va suivre et les figures annexées :

  • - la figure 1 représente la porte complètement ouverte, les deux vantaux repliés l'un sur l'autre ;
  • - la figure 2 représente la porte complètement fermée venant joindre le chambranle ;
  • - la figure 3 représente une vue en perspective du doigt à coulisse.
The present invention will be better understood from the description which follows and the appended figures:
  • - Figure 1 shows the door fully open, the two leaves folded over one another;
  • - Figure 2 shows the door completely closed from the doorframe;
  • - Figure 3 shows a perspective view of the sliding finger.

La figure 1 représente la porte complètement ou­verte avec sa partie fixe (1) ou chambranle dans lequel ont été vissées des fiches (2) ou charnières également vissées dans le premier vantau (3) permettant le pivotement de celui-ci par rap­port au chambranle (1).Figure 1 shows the door fully open with its fixed part (1) or jamb in which were screwed plugs (2) or hinges also screwed into the first leaf (3) allowing the pivoting thereof relative to the jamb ( 1).

Sur ce premier vantau (3) et à l'opposé des fi­ches (2), une charnière (5) y est vissée et permet de relier le premier vantau (3) au second vantau (4) offrant la possibilité d'un débattement angulaire de 180°.On this first leaf (3) and opposite the plugs (2), a hinge (5) is screwed there and allows to connect the first leaf (3) to the second leaf (4) offering the possibility of an angular movement 180 °.

A l'opposé de cette charnière (5), le second van­tau (4) est muni, dans sa partie haute, d'un support (6) fixé sur sa face interne. La partie interne dudit support est consti­tuée d'une glissière recevant le coulisseau (7) dont l'extrémité forme un doigt (8) perpendiculaire à son axe longitudinal XX'.Opposite this hinge (5), the second leaf (4) is provided, in its upper part, with a support (6) fixed on its internal face. The internal part of said support consists of a slide receiving the slide (7) whose end forms a finger (8) perpendicular to its longitudinal axis XX '.

Le doigt (8) s'engage dans la glissière (9) fi­xée dans la partie supérieure du chambranle.The finger (8) engages in the slide (9) fixed in the upper part of the frame.

L'évolution de la porte en cours de fermeture ou d'ouverture s'effectue comme toutes les portes basées sur ce sys­tème. Ce n'est qu'en fin de course de fermeture que le disposi­tif du doigt à coulisse objet de la présente invention va per­ mettre au second vantau (4) de venir superposer et joindre le montant vertical du chambranle (10) selon la représentation donnée par la figure 2 où la glissière (9) du chambranle n'a pas été représentée.The evolution of the door during closing or opening takes place like all doors based on this system. It is only at the end of the closing stroke that the sliding finger device object of the present invention will per put the second leaf (4) to overlap and join the vertical amount of the jamb (10) as shown in Figure 2 where the slide (9) of the jamb has not been shown.

La figure 3 représente plus particulièrement le dispositif du doigt à coulisse.Figure 3 shows more particularly the device of the sliding finger.

Constitué d'un corps ou support (6) de forme parallélépipédique creux formant une glissière à quatre faces, de préférence en métal ou matériau dur. Elle reçoit un coulis­seau (7) de section également parallélépipédique dans sa partie de guidage réalisée également en métal ou matériau dur. L'ex­trémité libre se termine par un doigt cylindrique (8) perpendi­culaire à l'axe longitudinal XX' du coulisseau (7). A l'opposé, le coulisseau se termine par une tige (11) recevant un ressort hélicoïdal de compression (12) qui tend à pousser le coulisseau (7) vers l'extérieur mais pour limiter son débattement, une goupille cylindrique (13) passée au travers de la tige (11) vient buter sur la face arrière du corps ou support (6).Consisting of a body or support (6) of hollow parallelepiped shape forming a slide with four faces, preferably made of metal or hard material. It receives a slide (7) of section also parallelepiped in its guide part also made of metal or hard material. The free end ends with a cylindrical finger (8) perpendicular to the longitudinal axis XX 'of the slide (7). In contrast, the slide ends with a rod (11) receiving a helical compression spring (12) which tends to push the slide (7) outwards but to limit its travel, a cylindrical pin (13) passed through the rod (11) abuts on the rear face of the body or support (6).

Pour permettre la fixation du corps ou sup­port (6) des aménagements ont été prévus sur les faces latéra­les, en particulier deux trous (14) pour passage de vis et deux lumières (15) pour engager l'embout d'un tourne-vis.To allow the body or support (6) to be fixed, arrangements have been made on the lateral faces, in particular two holes (14) for screw passage and two slots (15) for engaging the tip of a screwdriver.

Par rapport aux systèmes connus, l'invention présente les grands avantages suivants :

  • 1) - pose très facile et rapide par simple vissage : pas d'entaille, et ouverture complète par enlèvement, sans outil, de la goupille permettant l'accès sans aucune gêne pour aménagement éventuel à l'intérieur du placard, pose d'éta­gère par exemple ;
  • 2) - possibilité guidage haut et bas pour la bonne tenue des vantaux ;
  • 3) - les vantaux étant reliés par une charnière dont l'axe est déporté vers l'intérieur par rapport au ressort, assure une fermeture efficace par pincement des vantaux entre chambranles.
Compared with known systems, the invention has the following major advantages:
  • 1) - very easy and fast installation by simple screwing: no notch, and complete opening by removal, without tool, of the pin allowing access without any discomfort for possible arrangement inside the cupboard, installation of shelf for example ;
  • 2) - possibility of top and bottom guidance for the good holding of the leaves;
  • 3) - the leaves being connected by a hinge whose axis is offset inwards relative to the spring, ensures effective closing by pinching the leaves between frames.
