Description

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif pour la motorisation d'une fenêtre ou d'une baie coulissante. La motorisation d'une fenêtre ou d'une baie coulissante procure un confort à l'utilisateur puisque évitant à l'utilisateur d'actionner manuellement la fenêtre. Dans d'autres cas, notamment dans le cas de personnes handicapées, la motorisation d'une fenêtre ou d'une baie constitue un équipement indispensable.The present invention relates to a device for motorization a window or a sliding window. The motorization of a window or a sliding bay provides comfort to the user since avoiding the user manually activate the window. In other cases, notably in the cases of disabled people, the motorization of a window or bay is essential equipment.

Un certain nombre de dispositifs de motorisation de fenêtres ou baies coulissantes sont déjà connus.A number of window motor devices or sliding doors are already known.

C'est ainsi que le document JP-11-204778 décrit un dispositif de motorisation comprenant une crémaillère adaptée sur le châssis coulissant de la fenêtre. Un motoréducteur est fixé à cheval sur un angle de la paroi délimitant la fenêtre. Le motoréducteur est monté sur un support basculant, de manière à pouvoir être déplacé entre une position embrayée dans laquelle un pignon entraíné par le motoréducteur engrène avec la crémaillère pour déplacer en translation le châssis coulissant, et une position débrayée dans laquelle le pignon de manoeuvre n'engrène plus avec la crémaillère pour permettre une ouverture manuelle de la baie coulissante.This is how document JP-11-204778 describes a device for motorization comprising a rack adapted on the sliding frame of the window. A gearmotor is mounted astride a corner of the wall delimiting the window. The gearmotor is mounted on a tilting support, so that it can be moved between a engaged position in which a pinion driven by the gear motor meshes with the rack for move the sliding frame in translation, and a disengaged position in which the drive pinion no longer meshes with the rack for allow manual opening of the sliding door.

Ce dispositif présente l'inconvénient d'être inesthétique et de ne pas pouvoir être adapté sur tous les types de fenêtres. En outre, un tel dispositif subit des contraintes très importantes lors de la manoeuvre de châssis de grande dimension.This device has the drawback of being unsightly and of not not be able to be adapted on all types of windows. Furthermore, such device undergoes very significant stresses during the operation of large frame.

Le document FR-2 752 871 concerne un dispositif de motorisation pour baie coulissante, comportant une crémaillère fixée à l'avant de la traverse basse de la baie à motoriser et un bloc moteur fixé au sol, situé à l'extrémité de la baie coulissante vers laquelle celle-ci se déplace pour s'ouvrir. Le bloc moteur comprend un moteur électrique à arbre de rotation verticale, sur lequel est calé un pignon engrenant avec la crémaillère. L'ensemble d'entraínement est recouvert par un carter.Document FR-2 752 871 relates to a motorization device for sliding door, comprising a rack fixed to the front of the crossmember bottom of the bay to be motorized and an engine block fixed to the ground, located at the end of the sliding door towards which it moves to open. The block motor comprises an electric motor with vertical rotation shaft, on which is fixed a pinion meshing with the rack. The training set is covered by a housing.

Le document DE-297 02 827 concerne un système d'entraínement pour une baie coulissante, dans lequel deux crémaillères sont prévues en partie haute et en partie basse de la baie coulissante, ces crémaillères engrenant avec deux roues dentées qui sont entraínées par un moteur comportant deux arbres de sortie opposés et sur lesquels sont calés les pignons. Ce moteur est logé à l'intérieur d'un carter fixé par vissage sur les glissières de la baie coulissante. Document DE-297 02 827 relates to a drive system for a sliding bay, in which two racks are provided in upper and lower part of the sliding bay, these racks meshing with two gears which are driven by a motor comprising two opposite output shafts and on which the sprockets. This motor is housed inside a casing fixed by screwing on the sliding bay slides.

Le problème technique à la base de l'invention est de fournir un dispositif de motorisation qui puisse être adaptable, simplement, sur le chantier, à des baies coulissantes ou à des fenêtres coulissantes de différentes dimensions, et de différentes natures, en ne nécessitant pas la fixation du dispositif en un emplacement déterminé qui ne serait pas compatible avec la baie à équiper. En outre, il convient que ce dispositif soit esthétique, et résiste bien aux contraintes qui sont imposées par les efforts d'ouverture et de fermeture lors de la manipulation de baies vitrées de taille et par conséquent de poids important.The technical problem underlying the invention is to provide a motorization device which can be easily adapted to the construction site, sliding bays or sliding windows of different dimensions, and of different natures, not requiring the fixing of the device in a determined location which would not be compatible with the bay to be fitted. In addition, this device should be aesthetic, and resist well to the constraints that are imposed by the efforts of openness and closing when handling large bay windows and therefore of significant weight.

Ce dispositif, pour l'équipement d'une fenêtre ou d'une baie coulissante comportant un dormant et au moins un châssis coulissant dans le dormant, est :

  • un faux-montant qui, d'une part, comprend une chambre dans laquelle est fixé le moteur électrique et présente, au voisinage de l'une de ses extrémités, une fenêtre située en regard du pignon d'entraínement, et, d'autre part, est destiné à être adapté en façade du dormant, de manière à faire engrener le pignon avec la crémaillère,
  • et des moyens pour la fixation des deux extrémités du faux-montant sur le dormant et/ou un support adjacent.
This device, for equipping a window or a sliding window comprising a frame and at least one frame sliding in the frame, is:
  • a false upright which, on the one hand, comprises a chamber in which the electric motor is fixed and has, in the vicinity of one of its ends, a window located opposite the drive pinion, and, on the other part, is intended to be adapted on the front of the frame, so as to mesh the pinion with the rack,
  • and means for fixing the two ends of the false upright on the frame and / or an adjacent support.

Suivant la caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, le faux-montant est constitué par un élément tubulaire à l'intérieur duquel est fixé le moteur et dont la longueur est adaptable en coupant l'une et/ou l'autre des extrémités, chaque extrémité de l'élément tubulaire étant associé à un embout muni de moyens de fixation sur le dormant et/ou sur un support adjacent vertical ou horizontal.According to the essential characteristic of the invention, the false amount consists of a tubular element inside which the motor is fixed and whose length is adaptable by cutting one and / or the other of the ends, each end of the tubular element being associated with a nozzle provided with fixing means on the frame and / or on an adjacent vertical support or horizontal.

D'autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortent des revendications.Other characteristics of the invention emerge from the claims.

En pratique, un élément tubulaire, par exemple en alliage d'aluminium, de section circulaire, est équipé en usine d'un motoréducteur, l'arbre de ce motoréducteur étant muni d'un pignon dépassant partiellement vers l'extérieur par une fenêtre ménagée dans l'élément tubulaire, et destiné à engrener avec la crémaillère fixée sur le châssis coulissant. L'extrémité inférieure de l'élément tubulaire peut être coupée sur le chantier pour s'adapter à la hauteur de la crémaillère. De même, l'extrémité supérieure de l'élément tubulaire peut être coupée sur le chantier pour s'adapter parfaitement au point de fixation supérieure. In practice, a tubular element, for example of alloy aluminum, of circular section, is factory fitted with a gear motor, the shaft of this geared motor being provided with a pinion projecting partially outwards through a window in the tubular element, intended for mesh with the rack fixed on the sliding frame. The end bottom of tubular can be cut on site to fit at the height of the rack. Similarly, the upper end of the element tubular can be cut on site to fit the point perfectly upper fixing.

L'invention fournit ainsi un dispositif qui est adaptable sur le chantier, en fonction de la hauteur de la baie, en fonction du positionnement des points de fixation supérieur et inférieur. En outre, ce dispositif est esthétique puisque l'élément tubulaire s'étend sur toute la hauteur de la baie dans la zone de jonction entre la partie coulissante et la partie fixe de la baie. Enfin, la fixation de l'élément tubulaire étant réalisée à ses extrémités inférieure et supérieure, le dispositif de motorisation résiste parfaitement aux contraintes résultant de la manipulation de baies de grandes dimensions.The invention thus provides a device which is adaptable to the site, according to the height of the bay, according to the positioning upper and lower attachment points. In addition, this device is aesthetic since the tubular element extends over the entire height of the bay in the junction area between the sliding part and the fixed part of the opening. Finally, the fixing of the tubular element being carried out at its lower ends and higher, the motorization device withstands stress perfectly resulting from the handling of large bays.

Après découpe de l'élément tubulaire à la longueur voulue, les extrémités de celui-ci sont équipées d'embouts de section correspondant à celle de l'élément tubulaire, pour permettre une fixation par emboítement. Les embouts dépassent de l'élément tubulaire, et servent à la fixation sur le dormant lui-même, ou sur des parois adjacentes au dormant, horizontales ou verticales.After cutting the tubular element to the desired length, the ends of it are fitted with end caps corresponding to that of the tubular element, to allow fixing by fitting. The end caps protrude from the tubular element, and are used for attachment to the itself, or on walls adjacent to the horizontal, or vertical.

Un embout peut être associé à une platine perpendiculaire à l'axe de l'embout, ou être associé à une interface s'étendant latéralement.A tip can be associated with a plate perpendicular to the axis of the nozzle, or be associated with a laterally extending interface.

De toute façon l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé représentant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, une forme d'exécution de ce dispositif.In any case, the invention will be well understood using the description which follows, with reference to the appended schematic drawing representing, by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of this device.

Figure 1 en est une vue en perspective éclatée.Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view.

Figure 2 est une vue en perspective d'une fenêtre comportant un châssis fixe et un châssis coulissant, équipée de ce dispositif.Figure 2 is a perspective view of a window with a fixed frame and a sliding frame, equipped with this device.

Figure 3 est une vue en coupe de la fenêtre de figure 2 et du dispositif de motorisation correspondant, selon la ligne III-III de figure 2.Figure 3 is a sectional view of the window of Figure 2 and the corresponding motorization device, according to line III-III of figure 2.

Figure 4 est une vue en coupe par un plan horizontal de la fenêtre et du dispositif de motorisation de figure 2.Figure 4 is a sectional view through a horizontal plane of the window and of the motorization device of FIG. 2.

Le dispositif de motorisation selon l'invention, désigné par la référence générale 2, est destiné à équiper une baie coulissante comprenant un dormant 3, à l'intérieur duquel sont montés un châssis fixe 4 et un châssis coulissant 5.The motorization device according to the invention, designated by the general reference 2, is intended to equip a sliding bay comprising a frame 3, inside which are mounted a fixed frame 4 and a frame sliding 5.

Le dispositif représenté plus en détail en perspective éclatée à la figure 1 comprend une crémaillère 6 destinée à être fixée sur la traverse inférieure du châssis coulissant 5. La partie principale du dispositif de motorisation comprend un élément tubulaire 7, par exemple de section circulaire, réalisé en alliage d'aluminium. L'élément tubulaire peut par exemple être anodisé à l'aide de revêtement de différentes couleurs, pour pouvoir parfaitement s'intégrer dans l'environnement, notamment lorsque le châssis à équiper est un châssis métallique. A l'intérieur de l'élément tubulaire 7 est monté un motoréducteur 8, sur l'arbre duquel est calé un pignon 9, dont une partie de la périphérie dépasse de l'élément tubulaire à travers une fenêtre 10 que comporte celui-ci.The device shown in more detail in exploded perspective at the Figure 1 includes a rack 6 intended to be fixed on the cross bottom of the sliding frame 5. The main part of the motorization comprises a tubular element 7, for example of section circular, made of aluminum alloy. The tubular element can for example be anodized with coating of different colors, to be able to perfectly integrate into the environment, especially when the chassis equipping is a metal chassis. Inside the tubular element 7 is mounted a geared motor 8, on the shaft of which a pinion 9 is wedged, one of which part of the periphery protrudes from the tubular element through a window 10 that this involves.

Compte tenu de la nature du matériau dans lequel il est réalisé, l'élément tubulaire peut être facilement ajusté en longueur par sciage de ses extrémités. L'extrémité inférieure peut être coupée pour positionner le pignon 9 en fonction de la hauteur de la crémaillère 6, et l'extrémité supérieure peut être coupée pour adapter l'élément tubulaire à la hauteur de la fenêtre et des points de fixation de l'élément tubulaire en partie haute et en partie basse.Given the nature of the material in which it is made, the tubular element can be easily adjusted in length by sawing its ends. The lower end can be cut to position the pinion 9 depending on the height of the rack 6, and the upper end can be cut to adapt the tubular element to the height of the window and the points for fixing the tubular element in the upper part and in the lower part.

Comme montré au dessin, l'extrémité inférieure de l'élément tubulaire est associée à un embout 12 de section correspondant à celle de l'élément tubulaire 7, pour pouvoir s'emboíter dans l'extrémité inférieure de l'élément tubulaire. Cet embout 12, qui peut être métallique ou en matière synthétique est solidaire d'une platine 13 qui en est perpendiculaire, et dans laquelle sont ménagés des trous 14 pour le passage de vis de fixation au sol.As shown in the drawing, the lower end of the element tubular is associated with a nozzle 12 of section corresponding to that of the tubular element 7, to be able to fit into the lower end of the tubular element. This end piece 12, which may be metallic or made of material synthetic is secured to a plate 13 which is perpendicular thereto, and in which are formed holes 14 for the passage of fixing screws to the ground.

L'extrémité supérieure de l'élément tubulaire est associée à un embout 15, de section correspondant à celle de l'élément tubulaire pour pouvoir être engagé dans celui-ci. La zone d'emboítement 15 de l'embout est prolongée vers l'extérieur par une zone 16 de plus grande section, présentant un évidement latéral 17 en forme de feuillure. Cette feuillure 17 sert au montage d'une interface de fixation se présentant sous la forme d'une pièce formant entretoise, de forme générale parallélépipédique. Cette entretoise 18 possède une hauteur correspondant à celle de la feuillure 17, mais une largeur supérieure à celle de la feuillure, de façon à dépasser latéralement de l'élément tubulaire. Il est à noter que l'entretoise 18 formant interface peut être réalisée en un matériau sécable, ou comporter des lignes de rupture, permettant de régler sa largeur, et par conséquent la distance de l'élément tubulaire par rapport à un support vertical sur lequel peut être fixée l'entretoise 18.The upper end of the tubular element is associated with a end piece 15, of section corresponding to that of the tubular element for be able to be involved in it. The fitting zone 15 of the nozzle is extended outwards by a zone 16 of larger section, presenting a lateral recess 17 in the form of a rebate. This rebate 17 is used for mounting a fixing interface in the form of a part forming a spacer, generally rectangular in shape. This spacer 18 has a height corresponding to that of the rebate 17, but a width greater than that of the rebate, so as to project laterally from the element tubular. It should be noted that the spacer 18 forming an interface can be produced made of a breakable material, or have break lines, allowing adjust its width, and therefore the distance of the tubular element by relative to a vertical support on which the spacer 18 can be fixed.

Comme montré à la figure 3, l'embout 15, 16 présente une ouverture 19 pour le passage des fils d'alimentation électrique du moteur 8. Comme montré également à cette même figure, la zone d'extrémité 16 de l'embout, et l'entretoise 18 présentent des trous respectivement 20, 22 pour le passage de vis de fixation sur un support vertical 23 adjacent au dormant 3. As shown in Figure 3, the tip 15, 16 has a opening 19 for the passage of the electric supply wires of the motor 8. As also shown in this same figure, the end zone 16 of the end piece, and the spacer 18 have holes respectively 20, 22 for the passage of fixing screws on a vertical support 23 adjacent to the frame 3.

Comme il ressort de ce qui précède, l'invention apporte une grande amélioration à la technique existante, en fournissant un dispositif de motorisation d'une fenêtre ou d'une baie coulissante, de structure simple, permettant une adaptation aux dimensions de la fenêtre ou de la baie, permettant également une adaptation aux zones de fixation. En effet, il l'est si, dans la forme d'exécution décrite précédemment, la fixation de l'extrémité inférieure est réalisée par une platine horizontale et la fixation de l'extrémité supérieure est réalisée sur une paroi verticale adjacente au dormant, il serait tout à fait possible de fixer l'extrémité inférieure sur le dormant, et de fixer l'extrémité supérieure sur une surface horizontale, ou sur le dormant 3. Pour permettre la fixation sur une surface horizontale, l'embout supérieur pourrait être similaire à l'embout 12 et équipé d'une platine 13, ou encore l'entretoise 18 pourrait comporter des trous verticaux pour le passage de vis, débouchant dans la zone située au-delà de l'élément tubulaire, l'entretoise étant bien entendu fixée par des vis horizontales sur la partie 16 de l'embout.As is apparent from the above, the invention provides great improvement to the existing technique, by providing a device for motorization of a window or sliding window, of simple structure, allowing adaptation to the window or bay dimensions, also allowing adaptation to fixing areas. Indeed it is if, in the embodiment described above, the fixing of the end lower is made by a horizontal plate and the fixing of the end upper is made on a vertical wall adjacent to the frame, it would completely possible to fix the lower end on the frame, and to fix the upper end on a horizontal surface, or on the frame 3. To allow fixing on a horizontal surface, the upper end piece could be similar to the end piece 12 and fitted with a plate 13, or the spacer 18 could have vertical holes for the passage of screws, opening in the area beyond the tubular element, the spacer being well heard fixed by horizontal screws on part 16 of the nozzle.

Comme il va de soi, l'invention ne se limite pas à la seule forme d'exécution de ce dispositif, décrite ci-dessus à titre d'exemple, elle en embrasse toutes les variantes d'exécution et d'application.It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the single form of this device, described above by way of example, it embraces all variants of execution and application.

C'est ainsi notamment que le dispositif de motorisation pourrait être adapté sur une fenêtre ne comprenant qu'un coulissant, telles qu'une fenêtre dite à galandage, dont le coulissant vient, en position d'ouverture, se loger dans une cloison creuse.Thus, in particular, the motorization device could be suitable for a window comprising only one sliding, such as a window so-called pocket partition, the sliding of which comes, in the open position, to be housed in a hollow partition.
