Description

L'invention concerne un système de fermeture motorisé à ouvrant pivotant ou coulissant horizontalement ou verticalement, conforme au préambule de la revendication 1.The invention relates to a motorized closure system with a pivoting or sliding leaf horizontally or vertically, in accordance with the preamble of claim 1.

La présente invention concerne le domaine des systèmes de fermeture de bâtiment de type portes de garage, portails, volets, rideaux ou similaires.The present invention relates to the field of building closure systems such as garage doors, gates, shutters, curtains or the like.

Les systèmes de fermeture pour bâtiment de type portes de garage ou portails à ouvrant coulissant comportent, pour l'entraînement motorisé de ce type d'ouvrant, des systèmes de transmission à crémaillère.The closing systems for building type garage doors or sliding gates include, for the motorized drive of this type of opening, rack and pinion transmission systems.

Tout particulièrement, sur l'ouvrant est fixé une telle crémaillère avec laquelle vient en prise une roue dentée entraînée en rotation par un moteur électrique, souvent au travers d'un réducteur adapté.More particularly, on the leaf is fixed such a rack with which engages a gear driven in rotation by an electric motor, often through a suitable gear.

C'est habituellement par l'intermédiaire d'une telle transmission et du moteur que l'ouvrant est par ailleurs maintenu en position de fermeture. En effet, il est usuel d'utiliser un système de transmission irréversible ou encore de faire appel à un moteur à frein électromagnétique pour ce type d'application.It is usually through such a transmission and the engine that the opening is also maintained in the closed position. Indeed, it is usual to use an irreversible transmission system or to use an electromagnetic brake motor for this type of application.

Si le moteur est capable d'entraîner en rotation la roue dentée pour l'entraînement de la crémaillère, une poussée exercée sur l'ouvrant pour en obtenir l'ouverture est rendue impossible avec une transmission irréversible.If the motor is able to rotate the toothed wheel for driving the rack, a thrust exerted on the opening to obtain the opening is made impossible with an irreversible transmission.

En cas d'usage d'un moteur à frein électromagnétique, celui-ci est habituellement activé dès la coupure de l'alimentation électrique. Ainsi, lorsque le moteur n'est plus alimenté, le frein empêche la rotation du rotor et donc de l'arbre d'entraînement moteur. Ce blocage est répercuté au travers du réducteur sur le pignon denté agissant sur la crémaillère montée sur l'ouvrant.If an electromagnetic brake motor is used, it is usually activated when the power supply is cut off. Thus, when the motor is no longer powered, the brake prevents rotation of the rotor and therefore of the shaft motor drive. This blockage is reflected through the gearbox on the toothed pinion acting on the rack mounted on the opening.

Pour parfaire le maintien en position verrouillée de cet ouvrant, il est encore fréquent de faire appel à des systèmes de fermeture électromagnétique sous forme d'un verrou repoussé en position déverrouillée dès le moteur alimenté en énergie électrique et, au contraire, rappelé en position de verrouillage une fois l'ouvrant totalement refermé.To complete the maintenance in the locked position of the opening, it is still common to use electromagnetic closure systems in the form of a latch pushed in the unlocked position from the engine powered by electrical energy and, conversely, recalled in the position of lock once the opening completely closed.

Le problème que posent ces systèmes de fermeture motorisés connus, réside dans la difficulté d'obtenir l'ouverture de cet ouvrant en cas de défaillance moteur ou, tout simplement, de coupure secteur.The problem posed by these known motorized closing systems lies in the difficulty of obtaining the opening of this opening in the event of engine failure or, quite simply, mains failure.

En effet, la solution consiste, habituellement, à effectuer une manoeuvre de débrayage du moteur et, éventuellement, à procéder à un déverrouillage manuel des systèmes de fermeture auxiliaires, de type verrou électromagnétique ou similaire.Indeed, the solution is usually to perform a disengagement operation of the motor and, optionally, to perform manual unlocking auxiliary closing systems, electromagnetic lock type or similar.

On comprend bien que ces manoeuvres de débrayage et déverrouillage manuels ne sont possibles que depuis l'intérieur de l'habitation.It is understood that these manual release and unlocking maneuvers are only possible from inside the house.

Aussi, soit il existe une autre porte d'accès pour se rendre dans cette habitation et assurer, ainsi, l'ouverture de l'ouvrant depuis l'intérieur, soit il est ménagé, au niveau de cet ouvrant, en l'occurrence lorsqu'il s'agit de portes de garage, un portillon dont l'ouverture peut être obtenue par l'intermédiaire d'un système de fermeture classique de type ferrure de verrouillage.Also, either there is another access door to go to this house and ensure, thus, the opening of the opening from the inside, or it is provided at the level of this opening, in this case when it is about garage doors, a gate whose opening can be obtained via a conventional closing system type lock fitting.

Cependant, selon le type d'ouvrant dont il est question, celui-ci ne peut être équipé systématiquement d'un tel portillon ou, du moins, pas sans contrainte.However, depending on the type of opening that is mentioned, it can not be equipped systematically with such a door or, at least, not without constraint.

Il en est ainsi pour certains portails, mais aussi pour des portes de garage dont l'ouvrant est composé de plusieurs panneaux articulés les uns par rapport aux autres pour pouvoir s'étendre, en position d'ouverture, selon le cas, le long du plafond du garage ou un mur adjacent à celui comportant l'ouverture que vient refermer l'ouvrant.This is so for some gates, but also for garage doors whose opening is composed of several panels articulated relative to each other to be able to extend, in the open position, as appropriate, along the garage ceiling or a wall adjacent to the one with the opening that closed the opening.

On parle habituellement dans ce cas de portes sectionnelles en présence de ce type d'ouvrant à panneaux articulés.In this case, sectional doors are usually used in the presence of this type of articulated panel opening.

Quoi qu'il en soit, l'adjonction d'un tel portillon a pour conséquence d'alourdir substantiellement le poids de l'ouvrant et de complexifier sa structure, ce qui se traduit, bien sûr, par un surcoût non négligeable.Anyway, the addition of such a door has the effect of substantially increase the weight of the opening and complexity of its structure, which results, of course, a significant additional cost.

On connait par ailleurs par le document DE-A-195 01 624 , un volet roulant comportant un tablier conçu apte à venir s'enrouler autour d'un tube d'enroulement abritant un moteur tubulaire. Ce tube d'enroulement comporte, à chacune de ses extrémités, des tronçons d'axe montés en libre rotation dans des ouvertures adaptées dans des joues supports. Un de ces tronçons d'axe, à une des extrémités du tube d'enroulement, porte, de une manière radiale, un levier de verrouillage dont le débattement angulaire par rotation dudit tronçon d'axe est limité par deux butées fixes sur la joue support.We also know from the document DE-A-195 01 624 , a roller shutter having a designed apron adapted to be wrapped around a winding tube housing a tubular motor. This winding tube comprises, at each of its ends, shaft sections mounted in free rotation in adapted openings in support cheeks. One of these axis sections, at one end of the winding tube, carries, in a radial manner, a locking lever whose angular displacement by rotation of said axle section is limited by two fixed stops on the support cheek. .

Le levier de verrouillage agit par l'intermédiaire d'un mécanisme d'accouplement et de transmission sur un loquet de blocage conçu apte à coopérer avec une lame du tablier lorsque celui-ci est en position déployée.The locking lever acts via a coupling and transmission mechanism on a locking latch designed to cooperate with a blade deck when it is in the extended position.

Ainsi, lors de la commande d'entraînement du tube d'enroulement, par le moteur tubulaire, dans le sens du repliement du tablier, la résistance procurée par le poids de ce dernier conduit à exercer sur ledit moteur tubulaire un couple ayant pour conséquence sa rotation dans la plage limitée par les deux butées coopérant avec le levier de verrouillage.Thus, during the drive control of the winding tube, by the tubular motor, in the direction of the folding of the deck, the resistance provided by the weight of the latter leads to exert on said tubular motor a pair having consequently its rotation in the limited range by the two stops cooperating with the locking lever.

Le déplacement angulaire conféré à ce dernier conduit à la commande de déblocage du loquet agissant sur une lame du tablier.The angular displacement imparted to the latter leads to the unblocking control of the latch acting on a blade of the deck.

Si cette solution de l'état de la technique a pour avantage de procurer un point de verrouillage additionnel au tablier du volet roulant lorsqu'il est déployé, elle ne répond pas au problème de la commande de repliement, donc d'ouverture de ce volet roulant en de disfonctionnement du moteur. Si on peut imaginer que le loquet puisse être déverrouillé depuis l'intérieur de l'habitation et ceci manuellement, il faut encore assurer le débrayage du moteur qui ne peut tourner librement autour de son axe d'entrainement que sur la plage de débattement du levier de verrouillage entre les deux butées.If this solution of the state of the art has the advantage of providing an additional locking point to the deck of the shutter when it is deployed, it does not respond to the problem of the control of folding, therefore opening of this shutter rolling in engine malfunction. If one can imagine that the latch can be unlocked from inside the house and this manually, it is still necessary to ensure the disengagement of the motor that can rotate freely around its axis of drive on the range of movement of the lever locking between the two stops.

La présente invention se veut à même de répondre à cette difficulté. C'est ainsi que dans une première démarche inventive, on a imaginé, qu'en dehors des phases de manoeuvre d'ouverture et de fermeture, le moteur d'entraînement soit déconnecté de l'ouvrant de sorte que toute manipulation de cet ouvrant depuis l'extérieur de l'habitation devienne indépendante du mécanisme d'entraînement motorisé.The present invention is able to respond to this difficulty. Thus, in a first inventive step, it has been imagined that apart from the opening and closing operation phases, the drive motor is disconnected from the opening so that any manipulation of this opening since the outside of the house becomes independent of the motorized drive mechanism.

Dans le cadre d'une seconde démarche inventive, il a été imaginé d'associer à l'ouvrant des moyens de verrouillage manoeuvrables manuellement tout en étant susceptibles d'être manoeuvres automatiquement en phase initiale de commande d'ouverture sous l'influence du moteur.In the context of a second inventive step, it has been imagined to associate with the opening manually locking means lockable while being able to be maneuvers automatically in the initial phase of opening control under the influence of the engine .

Les avantages qui découlent de la présente invention consistent en ce que le système de fermeture, bien que motorisé, se comporte tel un système à fermeture et à ouverture manuelle. En effet, tant que le moteur est à l'arrêt, en l'occurrence, tant qu'il n'est pas alimenté en énergie électrique, il est totalement déconnecté de l'ouvrant qui, après déverrouillage de moyens de verrouillage adaptés, peut être manipulé avec aisance. Ainsi, en cas du dysfonctionnement du moteur, quelle qu'en soit la raison, l'usager peut aisément ouvrir l'ouvrant, sans avoir à accéder, tout d'abord dans l'habitation en passant par une autre porte d'accès. A noter que pour cela, il lui suffit de déverrouiller la porte, comme il est d'usage pour les ouvrants à commande manuelle, puis de repousser cet ouvrant selon le cas horizontalement ou verticalement, afin de dégager l'ouverture qu'il obture.The advantages that flow from the present invention are that the closure system, although motorized, behaves as a closing system and manual opening. Indeed, as long as the engine is stopped, in this case, both it is not supplied with electrical energy, it is completely disconnected from the opening which, after unlocking adapted locking means, can be handled with ease. Thus, in the event of malfunction of the engine, for whatever reason, the user can easily open the door, without having to access, first in the house through another access door. To note that for this, it is enough for him to unlock the door, as it is of use for the opening with manual control, then to push this opening according to the case horizontally or vertically, in order to clear the opening which it closes.

Un autre avantage résulte du fait que quel que soit le mode d'ouverture manuel ou motorisé de l'ouvrant, celui-ci est maintenu verrouillé en position de fermeture par l'intermédiaire de moyens de verrouillage qui, là encore, sont susceptibles d'être commandés manuellement ou de manière motorisée.Another advantage results from the fact that whatever the manual or motorized opening mode of the opening, it is kept locked in the closed position by means of locking means which, again, are susceptible of be controlled manually or motorized.

Ainsi, l'invention concerne un système de fermeture motorisé à ouvrant pivotant ou coulissant horizontalement ou verticalement selon la revendication 1.Thus, the invention relates to a motorized closing system with pivoting or sliding opening horizontally or vertically according to claim 1.

Tel que représenté dans les figures des dessins ci-joints, la présente invention concerne le domaine des systèmes de fermeture motorisés à ouvrant pivotant ou coulissant horizontalement ou verticalement.As shown in the figures of the accompanying drawings, the present invention relates to the field of motorized closing systems with pivoting or sliding horizontally or vertically.

Il est plus particulièrement représenté dans les dessins ci-joints, l'application de l'invention à un ouvrant coulissant horizontalement de type porte de garage.It is more particularly shown in the accompanying drawings, the application of the invention to a horizontally sliding sliding door type garage door.

Le système de fermeture motorisé 1 selon l'invention comporte un organe moteur 2, de type moteur électrique, qui, au travers d'un arbre d'entraînement moteur, non directement visible sur les dessins, vient agir, par l'intermédiaire d'une transmission adaptée 4 sur l'ouvrant 5 qui, comme déjà indiqué plus haut, peut être de type pivotant, coulissant ou autre.The motorized closing system 1 according to the invention comprises a motor unit 2, of the electric motor type, which, through a motor drive shaft, not directly visible in the drawings, acts by means of a transmission adapted 4 on the opening 5 which, as already indicated above, can be pivoting type, sliding or otherwise.

Dans les modes de réalisation illustrés, cet ouvrant 5 est de type coulissant horizontalement comme on en rencontre dans le cas de portes de garages ou similaires. Un tel ouvrant est souvent constitué de panneaux 6 articulés entre eux, permettant de le rejeter, en position d'ouverture, le long d'une paroi interne au garage, s'étendant perpendiculairement à l'ouverture que vient refermer cet ouvrant.In the illustrated embodiments, this opening 5 is of horizontally sliding type as is encountered in the case of garage doors or the like. Such an opening is often made of panels 6 hinged together, to reject it, in the open position, along a wall inside the garage, extending perpendicularly to the opening that closes the opening.

Le système de fermeture motorisé 1 comporte encore des moyens de verrouillage 7 plus particulièrement conçus à même de maintenir refermé l'ouvrant 5.The motorized closure system 1 further comprises locking means 7 more particularly designed to maintain closed the opening 5.

Selon une particularité de l'invention, l'organe moteur 2 est monté mobile en rotation libre autour de son arbre d'entraînement, ceci tant qu'il n'est pas alimenté en énergie électrique pour la commande d'ouverture et de fermeture de l'ouvrant 5. Le système de fermeture motorisé 1 comporte également, sous forme de moyens d'embrayage, des moyens 8 de commande de blocage en rotation dudit organe moteur 2, précisément lorsque ce dernier est alimenté en énergie électrique pour assurer, selon le cas l'ouverture et la fermeture de l'ouvrant 5.According to a particularity of the invention, the driving member 2 is mounted to move in free rotation around its drive shaft, as long as it is not supplied with electrical energy for the opening and closing control of the drive shaft. opening 5. The motorized closure system 1 also comprises, in the form of clutch means, means 8 for controlling rotation locking said motor member 2, precisely when the latter is supplied with electrical energy to ensure, according to the case the opening and closing of the opening 5.

De manière encore particulière à l'invention, ces moyens de commande de blocage 8 constituent, en outre, des moyens de commande de déverrouillage, des moyens de verrouillage 7, notamment en phase initiale d'ouverture.In a further particularity to the invention, these blocking control means 8 furthermore constitute unlocking control means, locking means 7, in particular in the initial opening phase.

En d'autres termes, dans la mesure où l'organe moteur 2 est lui-même libre en rotation et que son arbre d'entraînement est en coopération avec l'ouvrant 5 par l'intermédiaire de la transmission 4, lorsque cet organe moteur 2 est alimenté en énergie électrique, il vient à tourner autour de son arbre d'entraînement dont la rotation est empêchée sous l'influence du poids de l'ouvrant 5.In other words, insofar as the motor member 2 is itself free to rotate and its drive shaft is in cooperation with the opening 5 via the transmission 4, when the drive member 2 is powered by electric power, it comes to turn around its tree drive whose rotation is prevented under the influence of the weight of the opening 5.

Ce n'est qu'une fois cet organe de moteur 2 immobilisé par rapport à un point fixe, qu'intervient la rotation de l'arbre d'entraînement.It is only once this motor member 2 immobilized with respect to a fixed point, that intervenes the rotation of the drive shaft.

On se reportera, à présent, plus particulièrement au mode de réalisation correspondant aux figures 1 à 3 où il est visible un ouvrant 5 sous forme d'une porte de garage. Cet ouvrant 5 est monté coulissant horizontalement grâce à des moyens de guidage adaptés 9, 10 ménagés en partie supérieure et inférieure de l'ouverture qu'il vient refermer.Reference will now be made more particularly to the embodiment corresponding to the Figures 1 to 3 where it is visible an opening 5 in the form of a garage door. This opening 5 is slidably mounted horizontally by means of adapted guiding means 9, 10 formed in the upper and lower part of the opening that it closes.

Par ailleurs, cet ouvrant 5 comporte, en partie supérieure 11 et inférieure 12, des crémaillères 13, 14 sur lesquelles viennent s'engrener des pignons dentés 15, 16 montés aux extrémités d'un arbre 17, ici conçu de forme tubulaire et recevant, intérieurement, l'organe moteur 2.Furthermore, this opening 5 comprises, in the upper part 11 and lower 12, racks 13, 14 on which are meshing pinions 15, 16 mounted at the ends of a shaft 17, here designed tubular and receiving, internally, the driving member 2.

Celui-ci agit, au travers de son arbre d'entraînement, éventuellement par l'intermédiaire d'un réducteur 18 adapté, sur cet arbre 17. Ce dernier est maintenu en rotation par des paliers (non représentés) se situant à hauteur du montant arrière, opposé au montant avant 19, délimitant l'ouverture dans la construction et sur lequel vient se refermer l'ouvrant 5.It acts, through its drive shaft, possibly via a gear 18 adapted on this shaft 17. The latter is maintained in rotation by bearings (not shown) located at the height of the amount rear, opposite the amount before 19, delimiting the opening in the construction and on which is closed the opening 5.

Quant à l'organe moteur 2, il est de type tubulaire introduit dans cet arbre 17 tubulaire.As for the motor member 2, it is of the tubular type introduced into this tubular shaft 17.

Dans ces conditions, l'on comprend bien que l'arbre 17 est tournant autour de l'organe moteur 2, tout comme celui-ci peut librement tourner dans cet arbre tubulaire 17, tant que l'organe moteur 2 n'est pas lui-même rendu solidaire d'un point fixe. De manière usuelle, cet organe moteur 2 comporte une tête de moteur 20 que l'on vient fixer au niveau d'une console 21 formant par exemple joue support de palier. Précisément, cette tête de moteur 20 est ici libre en rotation.Under these conditions, it is clear that the shaft 17 is rotating around the motor member 2, just as it can freely rotate in this tubular shaft 17, as the motor member 2 is not him - even rendering solidarity of a fixed point. In the usual way, this drive member 2 comprises a motor head 20 which is fixed at a console 21 forming by example plays bearing bracket. Precisely, this motor head 20 is free here in rotation.

Justement, c'est ici qu'interviennent, selon l'invention, sur les moyens de commande de blocage en rotation 8 de l'organe moteur 2. Ces moyens, sous forme de moyens d'embrayage, peuvent emprunter différentes formes de réalisation. Ainsi, dans le mode de réalisation correspondant aux figures 1 à 3, ils sont du type électromagnétique comportant, par exemple, une ventouse électromagnétique 22 conçue apte à coopérer avec une plaque magnétique 23, la ventouse 22 attirant la plaque 23 en cas d'alimentation en énergie électrique.Exactly, it is here that intervene, according to the invention, on the control means of rotation locking 8 of the motor member 2. These means, in the form of clutch means, may borrow different embodiments. Thus, in the embodiment corresponding to Figures 1 to 3 they are of the electromagnetic type comprising, for example, an electromagnetic suction pad 22 designed adapted to cooperate with a magnetic plate 23, the suction cup 22 attracting the plate 23 in case of supply of electrical energy.

Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, la plaque 23 est montée solidaire en rotation de la tête 20 de l'organe moteur 2, tandis que la ventouse 22 est, elle, montée au niveau d'une console support fixe 21. L'on comprend bien qu'une disposition inversée peut être envisagée, consistant à équiper la tête de moteur 20 de la ventouse 22, le support fixe 21 recevant alors la plaque 23.In the illustrated embodiment, the plate 23 is mounted to rotate with the head 20 of the drive member 2, while the suction cup 22 is mounted at a fixed support bracket 21. It is understood that although an inverted arrangement can be envisaged, consisting of equipping the motor head 20 with the suction cup 22, the fixed support 21 then receiving the plate 23.

Pour en revenir au mode de réalisation illustré, la plaque 23 est par ailleurs montée mobile sur la tête de moteur 20 de manière, selon le cas, à venir en applique contre la ventouse électromagnétique 22 en cas d'alimentation en énergie électrique, correspondant à la position embrayée, ou, au contraire, s'en détacher lorsque cette alimentation est coupée pour provoquer le débrayage. A ce propos, des moyens de rappel élastique peuvent être prévus pour assurer ce débrayage lorsque la ventouse n'est plus sous tension.To return to the illustrated embodiment, the plate 23 is also mounted to move on the motor head 20 so as to be applied against the electromagnetic pad 22 in case of supply of electrical energy, corresponding to the engaged position, or, on the contrary, detach when this power is cut to cause the disengagement. In this connection, elastic return means may be provided to ensure this disengagement when the suction pad is no longer under tension.

Ladite plaque magnétique 23 comporte encore des moyens de blocage en rotation 24, par exemple une denture, conçue apte à coopérer, lorsqu'elle est attirée par la ventouse électromagnétique 22, avec des moyens de blocage complémentaires 25 associés à cette dernière.Said magnetic plate 23 further comprises means for locking in rotation 24, for example a toothing, designed capable of cooperating, when it is attracted by the electromagnetic pad 22, with complementary locking means 25 associated with the latter.

Ainsi, l'on comprend bien qu'en alimentant cette ventouse, il en résulte l'attirance de la plaque magnétique 23 et la coopération des moyens de blocage 24 avec ceux complémentaires 25 conduisant, simultanément, à bloquer en rotation la tête du moteur 20. L'organe moteur 2 ayant ainsi un point fixe assurant son immobilisation en rotation, son arbre d'entraînement moteur peut, au travers de la transmission 4, entraîner l'ouvrant 5.Thus, it is understood that by feeding this suction cup, it results in the attraction of the magnetic plate 23 and the cooperation of the locking means 24 with those complementary 25 leading simultaneously to block in rotation the motor head 20 The motor unit 2 thus having a fixed point ensuring its immobilization in rotation, its drive shaft can, through the transmission 4, drive the opening 5.

Tout particulièrement, lesdits moyens de commande de blocage en rotation 8 constituent encore des moyens de commande de déverrouillage, des moyens de verrouillage 7.In particular, said rotational locking control means 8 still constitute unlocking control means, locking means 7.

A ce propos, la ventouse électromagnétique 22 de l'embrayage électromagnétique correspondant auxdits moyens de commande de blocage 8 constitue, en quelque sorte, le plateau fixe de cet embrayage sur lequel vient en prise le plateau mobile défini par la plaque magnétique 23. En réalité, ce plateau fixe est lui-même libre en rotation par rapport à la console 21 autour de l'axe de rotation de l'organe moteur 2 qui n'est autre que l'axe de son arbre d'entraînement (non visible).In this regard, the electromagnetic clutch 22 of the electromagnetic clutch corresponding to said blocking control means 8 constitutes, in a way, the fixed plate of this clutch on which the moving plate defined by the magnetic plate 23 engages. this fixed plate is itself free to rotate relative to the console 21 about the axis of rotation of the motor member 2 which is none other than the axis of its drive shaft (not visible).

Cette rotation de la ventouse électromagnétique 2 est toutefois limitée angulairement selon une plage 26 déterminée. Ainsi, lors de l'alimentation de l'organe moteur 2, celui-ci se met à tourner autour de son arbre d'entraînement entraînant, par là même, la tête de moteur 20. Simultanément, sont activés les moyens de commande de blocage en rotation 8 consistant à l'attirance, par la ventouse électromagnétique 22, de la plaque magnétique 23. S'ensuit la rotation de ladite ventouse électromagnétique 22 sur la plage angulaire 26.This rotation of the electromagnetic pad 2 is however limited angularly according to a determined range 26. Thus, when feeding the motor member 2, it starts to rotate around its drive shaft thereby driving the motor head 20. Simultaneously, the blocking control means are activated. rotating 8 consisting in the attraction, by the electromagnetic pad 22, of the magnetic plate 23. Follows the rotation of said electromagnetic pad 22 on the angular range 26.

Tout particulièrement, les moyens 27 conférant cette mobilité angulaire relative à la ventouse électromagnétique 22 sont constitués, selon un exemple de réalisation, par une patte 28 comportant une lumière 29 semi-circulaire concentrique à l'axe de rotation de cette ventouse électromagnétique 22, donc de l'organe moteur 2. Dans cette lumière 29 vient s'engager un ergot de retenue 30 solidaire de la console 21. En d'autres termes, la lumière 29 détermine la plage 26 de libre rotation de la ventouse électromagnétique 22. Bien évidemment, l'on pourrait imaginer équiper la patte 28 de l'ergot de retenue 30, la lumière 29 étant alors ménagée au niveau de la console 21.In particular, the means 27 conferring this angular mobility relative to the electromagnetic pad 22 are constituted, according to an exemplary embodiment, by a tab 28 comprising a semicircular light 29 concentric to the axis. of rotation of this electromagnetic lock 22, therefore of the driving member 2. In this light 29 is engaged a retaining pin 30 integral with the console 21. In other words, the light 29 determines the range 26 of free rotation of the electromagnetic sucker 22. Of course, one could imagine equipping the lug 28 of the retaining pin 30, the light 29 then being formed at the console 21.

Avantageusement, ladite patte 28 entraînée par la ventouse électromagnétique 22, constitue une patte d'entraînement pour la commande de déverrouillage des moyens de verrouillage 7.Advantageously, said tab 28 driven by the electromagnetic pad 22 constitutes a drive tab for the unlocking control of the locking means 7.

Plus exactement, cette patte d'entraînement 28 est conçue apte à agir, notamment au travers d'une tringle 31 sur ces moyens de verrouillage 7.More exactly, this drive lug 28 is designed to act, in particular through a rod 31 on these locking means 7.

Ceux-ci peuvent emprunter différentes formes de réalisation, étant entendu, que selon une particularité de l'invention, lesdits moyens de verrouillage 7 sont encore conçus aptes à être commandés, également, depuis l'extérieur au moins de l'ouvrant 5.These can take various embodiments, it being understood that according to a feature of the invention, said locking means 7 are still designed able to be controlled, also from outside at least the opening 5.

Un mode de réalisation de tels moyens de verrouillage 7 sera exposé plus en avant dans la description.An embodiment of such locking means 7 will be explained further in the description.

On se reportera, à présent, au mode de réalisation correspondant à la figure 4 où l'on voit représentés, sous forme d'un autre mode de réalisation, les moyens de commande de blocage en rotation 8 de l'organe moteur 2.Reference will now be made to the embodiment corresponding to the figure 4 where it is shown, in the form of another embodiment, the rotational locking control means 8 of the motor member 2.

En réalité, ces moyens 8 conservent leur configuration sous forme d'un embrayage, notamment électromagnétique, et comportent un électroaimant 32 conçu apte à amener un ergot de blocage 33 en coopération avec une roue dentée 34 solidaire en rotation de la tête de moteur 20. L'ergot de blocage 33 a pour fonction, une fois engagée sur la roue dentée 34, d'assurer l'immobilisation en rotation de cette dernière et, par voie de conséquence, créer un point fixe pour l'organe moteur 2 qui peut alors produire l'ouverture et la fermeture de l'ouvrant 5 sous l'impulsion de son arbre d'entraînement. D'ores et déjà, on observera qu'en lieu et place d'un ergot de blocage d'autres moyens de blocage peuvent être prévus pour, en coopération avec des moyens de blocage complémentaires associés à la tête de moteur 20, assurer le blocage en rotation de cette dernière. La présente invention ne saurait être limitée au seul mode de réalisation décrit.In reality, these means 8 retain their configuration in the form of a clutch, in particular an electromagnetic clutch, and comprise an electromagnet 32 designed capable of bringing a locking lug 33 in cooperation with a toothed wheel 34 integral in rotation with the motor head 20. The locking pin 33 has the function, once engaged on the toothed wheel 34, immobilize in rotation of the latter and, consequently, create a fixed point for the drive member 2 which can then produce the opening and closing of the opening 5 under the influence of its drive shaft. Already, it will be observed that instead of a locking lug other locking means may be provided for, in cooperation with complementary locking means associated with the motor head 20, to ensure the blocking in rotation of the latter. The present invention can not be limited to the single embodiment described.

Dans ce mode de réalisation, visible dans la figure 4, l'ergot de blocage 33 est monté solidaire d'un levier 35 par exemple monté en rotation sur la console 21. L'électroaimant 32 est conçu apte à coopérer avec ledit levier 35 pour assurer sa rotation depuis une position inactive de débrayage dans une position active d'embrayage, dans cette dernière l'ergot de blocage 33 étant en coopération avec ladite roue dentée 34.In this embodiment, visible in the figure 4 , the locking pin 33 is mounted integral with a lever 35, for example rotatably mounted on the bracket 21. The electromagnet 32 is designed capable of cooperating with said lever 35 to ensure its rotation from an inactive position of disengagement in a active clutch position, in the latter the locking pin 33 being in cooperation with said toothed wheel 34.

Avantageusement, le levier 35 constitue encore un levier de commande des moyens de verrouillage 7 notamment au travers d'une tringle 31 adaptée.Advantageously, the lever 35 is still a control lever locking means 7 including through a rod 31 adapted.

Pour en revenir à ces moyens de verrouillage 7, ceux-ci comportent, selon une conception particulière de l'invention, des moyens d'accrochage 36 conçus aptes à être rapportés sur le montant avant 19 du bâti sur lequel se referme l'ouvrant 5 et des moyens d'accrochage complémentaires 37 rapportés sur cet ouvrant 5 et avec lesquels sont conçus aptes à coopérer lesdits moyens d'accrochage 36.To return to these locking means 7, they comprise, according to a particular design of the invention, fastening means 36 designed to be reported on the amount before 19 of the frame on which closes the opening 5 and complementary fastening means 37 attached to this opening 5 and with which are designed able to cooperate said fastening means 36.

Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux de l'invention, ces moyens d'accrochage 36 correspondant à ces moyens de verrouillage 7 sont à même d'être commandés, notamment pour le déverrouillage, par lesdits moyens de commande de blocage 8 auxquels il a été fait référence plus haut, tandis que les moyens d'accrochage complémentaires 37 sont prévus pour être commandés manuellement au moins depuis le côté externe de l'ouvrant 5.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, these attachment means 36 corresponding to these locking means 7 are able to be controlled, in particular for unlocking, by said locking control means 8 to which it has been made reference above, while the additional hooking means 37 are intended to be manually controlled at least from the outer side of the opening 5.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, lesdits moyens d'accrochage 36 se présentent sous forme d'au moins un crochet 38 monté pivotant sur le montant avant 19 du bâti, de manière apte à coopérer avec les moyens d'accrochage complémentaires 37 empruntant la forme d'au moins un pêne 39 solidaire de l'ouvrant 5. Tout particulièrement, ledit crochet 38 est soumis à des moyens de rappel élastique 40 en position de verrouillage, tandis que son extrémité 41 est configurée de manière apte à être repoussée en position de déverrouillage sous l'impulsion du pêne 39 lorsque l'ouvrant 5 vient à se refermer sur ledit montant avant 19 du bâti. En somme, le pêne 39 en intervenant sur le crochet 38, agit à l'encontre de ces moyens de rappels élastiques 40 de sorte qu'après passage sous le crochet 38 celui-ci puisse se verrouiller à l'arrière dudit pêne 39.In an exemplary embodiment, said hooking means 36 are in the form of at least one hook 38 pivotally mounted on the front upright 19 of the frame, in a manner adapted to cooperate with the complementary fastening means 37 in the form of at least one bolt 39 integral with the opening 5. In particular, said hook 38 is subjected to elastic return means 40 in the locking position, while its end 41 is configured in a manner adapted to be pushed back into the unlocked position under the impetus of the bolt 39 when the opening 5 is closed on said amount before 19 of the frame. In sum, the bolt 39 acting on the hook 38, acts against these resilient biasing means 40 so that after passage under the hook 38 it can lock at the rear of said bolt 39.

Par ailleurs, celui-ci est avantageusement rendu solidaire d'une tringle de commande 42 dépendant d'un dispositif de verrouillage 43 de type crémone manoeuvrable, notamment par l'intermédiaire d'une clé, depuis l'extérieur de l'ouvrant 5. La tringle de commande 42 est conçue apte à déplacer le pêne 39 de manière à effacer celui-ci de l'emprise du crochet 38.Moreover, it is advantageously secured to a control rod 42 depending on a locking device 43 of the operating cremone type, in particular by means of a key, from outside the opening 5. The control rod 42 is designed capable of moving the bolt 39 so as to erase it from the grip of the hook 38.

Comme il est représenté plus particulièrement dans la figure 1, les moyens d'accrochage 36 correspondant aux moyens de verrouillage 7 comportent plusieurs crochets 38 montés solidaires d'une tringle 44 rapportée de manière pivotante autour de son axe sur le montant avant 19 du bâti. La commande en rotation de cette tringle 44 intervient sous l'impulsion des moyens de commande de blocage 8 plus particulièrement de la tringle 31 commandée, selon le cas, par la patte d'entraînement 28 de la ventouse électromagnétique 22 ou par le levier 35 sur lequel agit l'électroaimant 32.As it is represented more particularly in the figure 1 , the attachment means 36 corresponding to the locking means 7 comprise several hooks 38 mounted integral with a rod 44 pivotally attached about its axis on the front post 19 of the frame. The rotation control of this rod 44 occurs under the impetus of the locking control means 8 more particularly of the rod 31 controlled, as the case may be, by the drive lug 28 of the electromagnetic lock 22 or by the lever 35 on which acts the electromagnet 32.

Le long de cette tringle 44 peut encore être prévue, une poignée de déverrouillage manuelle 45 permettant le déverrouillage depuis l'intérieur.Along this rod 44 may further be provided, a manual unlocking handle 45 for unlocking from the inside.

L'on peut toutefois imaginer que ce déverrouillage depuis l'intérieur intervienne de manière similaire au déverrouillage depuis l'extérieur par action sur la crémone définissant le dispositif de verrouillage 43 rendu solidaire de l'ouvrant 5.However, it can be imagined that this release from the inside intervenes in a manner similar to the unlocking from the outside by action on the espagnolette defining the locking device 43 secured to the opening 5.
