Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device generating signals characteristic of the movement of a closure means, such as a shutter, blind or door, consisting of a wiper kinematically linked to the closure means, of a vibrating element extending over at least the length of the stroke of the closure means and over which the friction element rubs when the closure means moves so as to cause the vibrating element to vibrate, and of a vibration sensor delivering a signal characteristic of these vibrations.
  • a closure means such as a shutter, blind or door
  • the mechanical part of the device should therefore have a certain flexibility of installation allowing adaptation to variations in dimensions.
  • the present invention aims to provide this flexibility of installation and therefore to facilitate the latter, as well as to simplify construction and therefore reduce costs.
  • the signal generator device is characterized in that its wiper is fixed on a carriage mounted to slide on the vibrating element and kinematically linked to the closure means.
  • the wiper Since the wiper is no longer fixed on the closing means, for example the lower blade of a roller shutter, but on an element linked to the vibrating element, the correct positioning of the wiper relative to the vibrating element is always guaranteed, whatever the position of the vibrating element relative to the closure means and to its path.
  • the kinematic connection between the carriage and the closure means can be achieved in any case. It will preferably be flexible but not extensible.
  • the vibrating element can advantageously consist of a thin rod or a steel wire under tension.
  • a vibrating element in the form of a threaded rod makes it possible both to easily tension the rod by means of a nut and to ensure a vibration of the rod by the friction of the wiper on the thread.
  • a particularly simple and rapid method of fixing a vibrating element in the form of a rod or bar consists in hanging this rod or bar on jumpers threaded on the ends of an existing slide.
  • One of the jumpers can be provided with a stopper in the form of screws allowing to put the rod or bar under tension.
  • Figure 1 is a partial view, in elevation and in section along I-I of Figure 2, of a first embodiment of the device applied to a shutter.
  • FIG. 2 is a partial view in section on II-II of FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 3 is a sectional view along III-III of the carriage of FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 4 is a sectional view along IV-IV of the bottom fixing point of the rod of FIG. 1.
  • Figure 5 is a section similar to that shown in Figure 2 showing an alternative embodiment.
  • Figure 6 is a sectional view similar to that of Figure 1 showing a second embodiment.
  • FIG. 7 is a sectional view along VII-VII of the carriage of FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 1 partially shows a window opening 1 open in a wall 2.
  • a rolling shutter with tubular blades of which only the lower blade 3 has been shown.
  • the shutter blades are guided in two slides, such as slide 4, fixed to the wall 2 on each side of the doorway 1.
  • the lower tubular blade 3 is closed at its ends by end pieces 5.
  • the vibration sensor 7 can be of the accelerometer or piezo or ferroelectric shock detector type, of the micro-machined silicon type with integrated processing electronics, for example a sensor sold by MURATA under the trade name PKS-4A.
  • the threaded rod 6 is fixed to the bottom of the slide 4 by means of two jumpers 10 and 11, made of folded sheet metal, threaded on the edges of the slide 4.
  • the jumpers 10 and 11 On the inside of the slide, the jumpers 10 and 11 have a part folded in the form of a bridge carrying a vertical tubular part 12, respectively 13 through which the rod 6 passes freely.
  • the threaded rod carries two nuts, namely an upper nut 14 by which the rod rests on the tubular part 12 of the upper rider 10 and a lower nut 15, below the tubular part 13 of the lower rider, by means of which it is possible to tension the rod 6 between the two jumpers, so that this rod vibrates easily.
  • the carriage 16 On the rod 6 is mounted a carriage 16 which can slide easily on the thread of the rod 6.
  • the carriage 16 has an elasticity slot, that is to say a clamp-shaped profile as shown in FIG. 3, in such a way that it can be mounted laterally on the vibrating rod 6 by a simple pressure having the effect of opening its elasticity slot.
  • the trolley can advantageously be made of synthetic material.
  • On the carriage 16 is fixed a metal blade 17 of which a bent part 17a comes to bear elastically on the vibrating rod 6 and of which another part 17b, which extends on the opposite side of the carriage 16, is fixed on a stud 18 of the nozzle 5 of the lower blade 3 of the roller shutter.
  • the blade 17 is fixed to the stud 18 here by clipping a folded profiled part of the part 17b of the blade.
  • the carriage 16 is thus kinematically linked to the blade 3 and its wiper 17a rubs against the thread of the vibrating rod 6 during the movement of the blade 3, that is to say when the rolling shutter is wound or unwound .
  • the friction of the wiper on the vibrating rod 6 causes the latter to vibrate, a vibration which is picked up by the sensor 7.
  • the means for processing the signals emitted by the sensor 7 can be executed as described in the prior patent application FR 2 691 746.
  • the mechanical means of the signal generator device are produced in a very simple, inexpensive manner and are easy to install.
  • the mounting of the vibrating bar 6 does not require any screws or rivets, but the installer only has to thread the jumpers 10 and 11 on the slide 4. If the slide 4 is fixed to the wall by one of its wings, that is to say its side, the jumpers 10 and 11 are then threaded onto the bottom of the slide as shown in FIG. 2. If on the other hand the slide 4 is fixed to the wall by its bottom, that is to say -to say the bottom of the profile, it is without other possibility to fix the jumpers 10 and 11 on the side of the slide as shown in Figure 5. The device therefore has great installation flexibility.
  • the main advantage lies in the fact that the wiper is no longer fixed to a blade of the rolling shutter, but to the carriage 16 which constitutes with the vibrating rod 6 a sub-assembly such as the position of the wiper relative to the vibrating rod. is always insured.
  • the connection between the carriage 16 and the blade 3 has a flexibility such that the distance between the blade 3 and the vibrating rod 6 can vary depending on the differences in dimension of the embrasure.
  • the lower blade 3 of the roller shutter can without further descend to the bottom of the doorway without the lower attachment of the vibrating rod hindering the movement of the wiper, the length of the part 17b of the blade 17 being able to be chosen. depending on the position of the lower attachment of the vibrating rod.
  • the second embodiment shown in Figures 6 and 7 in fact differs from the first embodiment only in the shape of the vibrating rod and its method of attachment and tensioning. Only these elements will therefore be described.
  • the vibrating element in this case consists of a bar 19 of rectangular section having a crenellated or serrated surface 20.
  • a sliding carriage 21 consisting of a block having a rectangular O-shaped profile threaded on the bar 19.
  • the blade 17 is fixed to the carriage 21 in the same manner as in the first embodiment.
  • the vibrating bar 19 has two holes 22 and 23 for fixing it. This fixing is again ensured by two jumpers 24 and 25 threaded on the ends of the slide 4. These jumpers 24 and 25 are made of cut and folded sheet metal so as to release a folded tab in the form of a hook 26, respectively 27.
  • hooks 26 and 27 are detached from a part folded approximately in a trapezoid, as in the first embodiment, used to hold the vibrating bar 19 at a certain distance from the slide 4.
  • the hook 26 is engaged in the hole 22 and the hook 27 in the hole 23 of the vibrating bar 19.
  • the upper jumper 24 has a wider U profile than that of the other rider and the bottom of this profile is pierced with a threaded hole in which is engaged a screw 28, the end of which comes to rest on an angled edge of the slide 4. In screwing the screw 28, it is thus possible to raise the jumper 24 and to exert by its hook 26 a tension on the bar 19 retained in its lower part by the hook 27.
  • the rod or the vibrating bar could of course be fixed by other means to the slide or directly to the wall.
