Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine des systèmes de motorisation permettant la manœuvre automatique d'ouvrants.The present invention relates to the field of motorization systems allowing the automatic operation of openings.

On connaît dans l'état de la technique différentes solutions permettant de motoriser un ouvrant. En particulier, les brevets FR 2611798 et DE 29609749 décrivent un dispositif comprenant un axe vertical, solidaire d'une paumelle et entraîné par un arbre de transmission, ledit arbre de transmission traversant le mur jusqu'à un moteur électrique situé à l'intérieur du bâtiment.Various solutions are known in the state of the art for motorizing an opening. In particular, patents FR 2611798 and FROM 29,609,749 describe a device comprising a vertical axis, integral with a hinge and driven by a transmission shaft, said transmission shaft passing through the wall to an electric motor located inside the building.

Cette solution de l'art antérieur présente toutefois l'inconvénient d'être difficile à installer en ce sens qu'elle nécessite une opération de perçage du mur pour faire passer un arbre de transmission jusqu'au boîtier de motorisation avec tous les problèmes d'étanchéité que cela implique.This solution of the prior art, however, has the drawback of being difficult to install in that it requires an operation of drilling the wall to pass a transmission shaft to the motor housing with all the problems of sealing that this implies.

On connaît également le brevet GB 2264534 qui présente un mécanisme de manœuvre de portail permettant l'ouverture et la fermeture dudit portail de façon manuelle ou motorisée. Ce mécanisme est cependant inadapté à certains ouvrants tels que les fenêtres, puisqu'il ne peut pas être supporté par un montant vertical.We also know the patent GB 2264534 which has a gate operating mechanism allowing the opening and closing of said gate manually or motorized. This mechanism is however unsuitable for certain opening elements such as windows, since it cannot be supported by a vertical upright.

Enfin, on connaît le brevet DE 9204030 qui présente également un mécanisme de portail dont une partie est destinée à être ensevelie dans le sol. De même que précédemment, ce mécanisme n'est pas adapté aux ouvrants supportés par un montant vertical.Finally, we know the patent DE 9204030 which also has a portal mechanism, part of which is intended to be buried in the ground. As before, this mechanism is not suitable for openings supported by a vertical upright.

En effet, un objet de l'invention est d'éviter les accidents.Indeed, an object of the invention is to avoid accidents.

Une motorisation de volets peut entraîner des accidents de plusieurs types, accident corporel ou accident matériel.A shutter motorization can cause accidents of several types, bodily injury or material accident.

L'accident corporel survient quand le volet se referme sur quelqu'un. Il peut aussi survenir des collisions matérielles entre deux ouvrants.Personal injury occurs when the shutter closes on someone. Material collisions can also occur between two sashes.

Pour éviter ces collisions soit entre volets, soit de les aggraver quand elles ont lieu entre un volet et un obstacle sur sa trajectoire, soit un objet, soit une personne qui vient se placer sur ladite trajectoire, l'invention propose une gestion de ces risques d'accidents.To avoid these collisions either between flaps, or to aggravate them when they occur between a flap and an obstacle in its path, or an object or a person who comes to stand on said path, the invention proposes a management of these risks. accidents.

Pour cela l'inventeur a dû trouver une solution pour détecter ces risques, puis les risques détectés les gérer.For this, the inventor had to find a solution to detect these risks, then the risks detected to manage them.

A cela s'ajoute la nécessité de gérer les obstacles imprévus, personne ou objet sur la trajectoire d'un volet.Added to this is the need to manage unforeseen obstacles, person or object in the path of a shutter.

L'inventeur a constaté que le volet contre un obstacle cherche à continuer sa course et pour cela le dispositif augmente la puissance.The inventor has observed that the shutter against an obstacle seeks to continue its course and for this the device increases the power.

Passer au-delà de la puissance nécessaire au mouvement normal d'un volet est franchir une valeur seuil.To go beyond the power necessary for the normal movement of a shutter is to cross a threshold value.

Ainsi, pour interrompre immédiatement le déplacement du volet dès que la valeur seuil est atteinte, la carte commande (via un circuit d'arrêt) coupe l'alimentation du moteur. Cette mesure assure que le volet ne se referme pas sur quelqu'un.Thus, to immediately stop the movement of the shutter as soon as the threshold value is reached, the control card (via a stop circuit) cuts the power supply to the motor. This measure ensures that the shutter does not close on someone.

La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un système de motorisation facile à installer et adapté à tous les types d'ouvrants présentant des paumelles latérales.The object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a motorization system that is easy to install and suitable for all types of openings having side hinges.

A ce titre, l'invention concerne en premier lieu un système de motorisation pour ouvrant de type volet présentant des paumelles latérales coopérant avec des gonds installés dans la maçonnerie, la fonction de ces gonds étant de soutenir le volet et d'entrer en rotation, au moins l'un des gonds étant entraîné par un moteur. Un boîtier incorporant le moteur et un moto-réducteur dont l'arbre de sortie est perpendiculaire à un plan passant par l'axe du moteur, ledit arbre de sortie étant couplé à l'une au moins desdites paumelles. Au moins un des gonds est constitué par le boîtier destiné à être scellé dans la maçonnerie.As such, the invention relates firstly to a motorization system for a shutter-type opening having side hinges cooperating with hinges installed in the masonry, the function of these hinges being to support the shutter and to rotate, at least one of the hinges being driven by a motor. A housing incorporating the motor and a geared motor whose output shaft is perpendicular to a plane passing through the axis of the motor, said output shaft being coupled to at least one of said hinges . At least one of the hinges consists of the box intended to be sealed in the masonry.

Le système de motorisation contient une carte électronique qui permet :

  • de gérer l'ouverture et la fermeture de l'un des volets avant l'autre pour éviter les risques de collision ;
  • de déclencher un circuit d'arrêt du moteur électrique lorsque la puissance d'alimentation du système de motorisation dépasse la valeur seuil pour assurer que le volet ne se referme pas sur quelqu'un.
The motorization system contains an electronic card which allows:
  • manage the opening and closing of one of the shutters before the other to avoid the risk of collision;
  • to trigger an electric motor stop circuit when the power supply to the motorization system exceeds the threshold value to ensure that the shutter does not close on someone.

Cette solution présente l'avantage d'une installation facile. Le boîtier assure l'étanchéité des moyens de motorisation, ainsi que le maintien mécanique dans la maçonnerie. Cette réalisation présente une grande robustesse et se trouve particulièrement adaptée pour les ouvrants extérieurs.This solution has the advantage of easy installation. The box ensures the sealing of the motorization means, as well as the mechanical retention in the masonry. This embodiment is very robust and is particularly suitable for exterior openings.

Avantageusement, le système de motorisation selon l'invention comporte un arbre de sortie décalé par rapport à l'axe médian dudit boîtier.Advantageously, the motorization system according to the invention comprises an output shaft offset with respect to the median axis of said housing.

De préférence, le système de motorisation comporte un boîtier cylindrique.Preferably, the motorization system comprises a cylindrical housing.

De préférence également, le boîtier du système de motorisation présente à sa surface extérieure des éléments saillants pour faciliter l'accrochage par un moyen de scellage.Also preferably, the housing of the drive system has projecting elements at its outer surface to facilitate attachment by sealing means.

Selon une variante, le taux de réduction du moto-réducteur du système de motorisation est inférieur à 1/10000.According to one variant, the reduction rate of the gear motor of the motorization system is less than 1/10000.

Selon une autre variante, le couplage entre l'arbre de sortie et le gond est assuré par un limiteur de couple.According to another variant, the coupling between the output shaft and the hinge is provided by a torque limiter.

Le système de motorisation peut évidemment comporter un moyen de débrayage manuel du gond par rapport à l'arbre de sortie.The motorization system can obviously include a manual disengagement means of the hinge relative to the output shaft.

Le système de motorisation peut également comporter un capteur solaire.The motorization system can also include a solar collector.

Le système de motorisation peut également comporter un capteur de fin de course.The motorization system can also include a limit switch.

Selon l'invention le système de motorisation comporte en outre une carte de commande comprenant un circuit d'arrêt du moteur lorsque la puissance d'alimentation dépasse une valeur seuil.According to the invention, the motorization system further comprises a control card comprising a circuit for stopping the motor when the supply power exceeds a threshold value.

L'invention se rapporte encore à un procédé d'installation dans la maçonnerie d'un boîtier conforme à celui décrit ci-dessus dans lequel le premier joint d'étanchéité placé sur sa face arrière et le second joint d'étanchéité sur la partie émergente pour simplifier radicalement l'opération d'installation qui ne se résume plus qu'à une simple opération de scellage de la partie encastrée déjà étanche dans la maçonnerie.The invention also relates to a method of installing in the masonry of a box according to that described above in which the first seal placed on its rear face and the second seal on the emerging part. to radically simplify the installation operation which no longer boils down to a simple sealing operation of the already sealed recessed part in the masonry.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui suit, concernant un exemple non limitatif de réalisation où :

  • la figure 1 est une vue partielle et schématique d'un volet supporté par deux gonds. L'un d'eux est entraîné par un système de motorisation conforme à l'invention ;
  • la figure 2 est une vue en perspective d'un système de motorisation conforme à l'invention ;
  • la figure 3 est une vue latérale, partielle et schématique d'un système de motorisation conforme à l'invention et encastré dans un mur ;
  • la figure 4 est une vue de dessus, partielle et schématique d'un système de motorisation conforme à l'invention et encastré dans un mur.
The invention will be better understood on reading the following description, relating to a non-limiting example of an embodiment where:
  • the figure 1 is a partial and schematic view of a shutter supported by two hinges. One of them is driven by a motorization system according to the invention;
  • the figure 2 is a perspective view of a motorization system according to the invention;
  • the figure 3 is a side view, partial and schematic of a motorization system according to the invention and embedded in a wall;
  • the figure 4 is a top view, partial and schematic of a motorization system according to the invention and embedded in a wall.

La figure 1 présente un ouvrant de type volet 2 supporté par une paumelle latérale supérieure 4 et une paumelle latérale inférieure 6. Ces paumelles latérales 4,6 coopèrent avec deux gonds 8,10 fixés dans la maçonnerie 12. Le gond supérieur 8 est un gond traditionnel dont la fonction est de soutenir le volet 4 et de lui permettre d'entrer en rotation lorsqu'il est manipulé.The figure 1 has a shutter-type opening 2 supported by an upper lateral hinge 4 and a lower lateral hinge 6. These lateral hinges 4,6 cooperate with two hinges 8,10 fixed in the masonry 12. The upper hinge 8 is a traditional hinge whose function is to support the shutter 4 and to allow it to rotate when it is handled.

Le gond inférieur 10 est quant à lui entraîné par un système de motorisation 20 selon l'invention. Il est supporté par la partie émergente 24a du boîtier 22. Le boîtier 22 contient le système de motorisation 20 selon l'invention. Par ailleurs, le gond inférieur 10 est emboîté dans la partie femelle 6a de la paumelle latérale inférieure 6. Une bague de support 14 permet d'éviter tout frottement entre la partie femelle 6a et la partie émergente 24a du boîtier 22.The lower hinge 10 is itself driven by a motorization system 20 according to the invention. It is supported by the emerging part 24a of the housing 22. The housing 22 contains the motorization system 20 according to the invention. Furthermore, the lower hinge 10 is fitted into the female part 6a of the lower lateral hinge 6. A support ring 14 makes it possible to avoid any friction between the female part 6a and the emerging part 24a of the housing 22.

Selon un autre mode de réalisation, toutes les paumelles soutenant l'ouvrant coopèrent avec un gond entraîné par un système de motorisation 20 selon l'invention.According to another embodiment, all the hinges supporting the opening cooperate with a hinge driven by a motorization system 20 according to the invention.

Le gond inférieur 10 et la partie femelle 6a sont maintenus en position l'un par rapport à l'autre par l'intermédiaire d'une goupille 16. Cette goupille 16 passe par un plan normal à l'axe longitudinal du gond inférieur 10. Elle est amovible de façon à pouvoir débrayer facilement le système de motorisation 20 et ainsi manipuler le volet 2 manuellement, sans avoir besoin de démonter l'ensemble du système.The lower hinge 10 and the female part 6a are held in position relative to each other by means of a pin 16. This pin 16 passes through a plane normal to the longitudinal axis of the lower hinge 10. It is removable so as to be able to easily disengage the motorization system 20 and thus manipulate the shutter 2 manually, without having to dismantle the entire system.

Par ailleurs, le gond inférieur 10 est décalé par rapport à l'axe médian de la partie émergente 24a du boîtier 22. Dans cette configuration, le gond inférieur 10 est au plus près du rebord de la fenêtre. On respecte ainsi la géométrie traditionnelle des volets à gonds. Ce système de motorisation 20 est, par ailleurs, particulièrement discret. En effet, la partie émergente 24a est très peu volumineuse et ne dénature donc pas les façades de maison. Enfin, il est pratique puisqu'il convient à tous les types d'ouvrants 2. Il vient simplement remplacer l'un des gonds et s'installe aussi bien sur des constructions neuves que sur des bâtiments existants.Furthermore, the lower hinge 10 is offset with respect to the median axis of the emerging part 24a of the housing 22. In this configuration, the lower hinge 10 is as close as possible to the edge of the window. The traditional geometry of hinged shutters is thus respected. This motorization system 20 is, moreover, particularly discreet. Indeed, the emerging part 24a is very small and therefore does not distort the house facades. Finally, it is practical since it is suitable for all types of openings 2. It simply comes replace one of the hinges and can be installed on new constructions as well as on existing buildings.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier présenté sur la figure 2, la partie émergente 24a du boîtier 22 est de forme parallélépipédique. Par ailleurs, cette partie émergente 24a prolonge la partie encastrée 24b du boîtier 22. Cette partie encastrée 24b est de forme cylindrique afin de faciliter son encastrement dans la maçonnerie 12. Cette partie encastrée 24b présente également en surface une multitude d'éléments saillants 26 qui facilitent son accrochage par un moyen de scellage.According to a particular embodiment presented on figure 2 , the emerging part 24a of the housing 22 is of parallelepiped shape. Furthermore, this emerging part 24a extends the embedded part 24b of the housing 22. This embedded part 24b is cylindrical in order to facilitate its embedding in the masonry 12. This embedded part 24b also has a multitude of projecting elements 26 on the surface which facilitate its attachment by a sealing means.

Sur les figures 3 et 4, la partie encastrée 24b du boîtier 22 est scellée dans la maçonnerie 12. Cette partie encastrée 24b contient plusieurs éléments mécaniques dont un moteur électrique 30 couplé à un moto-réducteur 32 selon un rapport de réduction de 1/12000. Une gaine électrique 34 s'échappe du moteur électrique 30 et de la partie encastrée 24b. Elle traverse la maçonnerie 12 pour venir se connecter à la carte électronique 36 installée dans le boîtier de commande 38. Cette gaine électrique 34 assure la transmission des signaux de contrôle du système de motorisation 20, notamment l'alimentation et les signaux de mise en marche et d'arrêt du moteur électrique 30. Un premier joint d'étanchéité 40a assure le confinement de la partie encastrée 24b. Le joint d'étanchéité est placé à l'intérieur de la partie encastrée 24b, sur sa face arrière. L'arbre de sortie intermédiaire 40 du moto-réducteur 32 est solidaire d'une vis sans fin 42. Cette vis sans fin 42 entraîne en rotation un engrenage 44. L'engrenage 44 est solidaire d'un arbre de sortie 18. Le couplage de cet arbre de sortie 18 et du gond inférieur 10 est assuré par un limiteur de couple 46. Sa fonction est de protéger l'ensemble du système en cas de manipulation manuelle du volet 2 sans débrayage préalable. Un second joint d'étanchéité 40b est également prévu pour assurer l'étanchéité de la partie émergente 24a. L'avantage de ces joints d'étanchéité 40a,40b et plus généralement du système de motorisation 20 selon l'invention est de simplifier radicalement son installation. En effet, tous les problèmes d'étanchéité sont désormais réglés à l'intérieur du boîtier 22 contenant le système de motorisation 20. L'opération d'installation ne se résume dès lors qu'à une simple opération de scellage de la partie encastrée 24b à l'intérieur de la maçonnerie 12.On the figures 3 and 4 , the embedded part 24b of the housing 22 is sealed in the masonry 12. This embedded part 24b contains several mechanical elements including an electric motor 30 coupled to a gear motor 32 with a reduction ratio of 1/12000. An electric sheath 34 escapes from the electric motor 30 and from the recessed part 24b. It passes through the masonry 12 to connect to the electronic card 36 installed in the control box 38. This electrical sheath 34 transmits the control signals of the motorization system 20, in particular the power supply and the starting signals. and stopping the electric motor 30. A first seal 40a ensures the confinement of the recessed part 24b. The seal is placed inside the recessed part 24b, on its rear face. The intermediate output shaft 40 of the gear motor 32 is integral with a worm 42. This worm 42 rotates a gear 44. The gear 44 is integral with an output shaft 18. The coupling of this output shaft 18 and of the lower hinge 10 is provided by a torque limiter 46. Its function is to protect the entire system in the event of manual manipulation of the shutter 2 without prior disengagement. A second seal 40b is also provided to seal the emerging part 24a. The advantage of these seals 40a, 40b and more generally of the motorization system 20 according to the invention is to radically simplify its installation. In fact, all the sealing problems are now resolved inside the housing 22 containing the motorization system 20. The installation operation therefore only boils down to a simple sealing operation of the recessed part 24b. inside the masonry 12.

Les ouvrants étant souvent employés par pairs, leurs ouvertures et fermetures doivent être asynchrones afin d'éviter que les deux parties d'un même dispositif n'entrent en collision. Suivant l'invention, le système de motorisation 20 contient une carte électronique 36 qui permet de gérer l'ouverture et la fermeture de l'un des volets avant l'autre. Ainsi, les risques de collision sont évités.As the openings are often used in pairs, their opening and closing must be asynchronous in order to prevent the two parts of the same device from colliding. According to the invention, the motorization system 20 contains an electronic card 36 which makes it possible to manage the opening and closing of one of the shutters before the other. Thus, the risk of collision is avoided.

Cette carte de commande 36 comprend également un circuit d'arrêt du moteur électrique 30 destiné à couper l'alimentation du système de motorisation 20 lorsqu'un obstacle est placé sur la trajectoire du volet 2. Dès que quelque chose vient entraver la course du volet 2, la puissance d'alimentation du système de motorisation 20 augmente. Lorsque cette augmentation dépasse une valeur seuil, cela déclenche automatiquement le circuit d'arrêt de la carte de commande 36 et interrompt immédiatement le déplacement du volet 2. Cette mesure de sécurité assure notamment que le système de motorisation 20 ne se referme pas sur quelqu'un.This control card 36 also includes a circuit for stopping the electric motor 30 intended to cut off the power supply to the motorization system 20 when an obstacle is placed in the path of the shutter 2. As soon as something hinders the travel of the shutter 2, the power supply of the motorization system 20 increases. When this increase exceeds a threshold value, this automatically triggers the stop circuit of the control card 36 and immediately interrupts the movement of the shutter 2. This safety measure ensures in particular that the motorization system 20 does not close on anyone. a.

Le dispositif comprend en outre deux capteurs de fin de course reliés à la carte électronique 36 qui permettent d'arrêter le mécanisme lorsque l'ouvrant 2 arrive en position ouverte ou fermée.The device further comprises two limit switch sensors connected to the electronic card 36 which make it possible to stop the mechanism when the leaf 2 arrives in the open or closed position.

Enfin, la carte électronique 36 du système de motorisation 20 est reliée électriquement à un capteur solaire, idéalement placé dans un lieu disposant d'un bon ensoleillement, qui déclenche l'ouverture de l'ouvrant 2 lorsque la cellule photovoltaïque reçoit suffisamment de lumière. Au contraire, il déclenche la fermeture de l'ouvrant 2 lorsque la cellule photovoltaïque ne reçoit plus suffisamment de lumière.Finally, the electronic card 36 of the motorization system 20 is electrically connected to a solar collector, ideally placed in a place with good sunlight, which triggers the opening of the opening 2 when the photovoltaic cell receives sufficient light. On the contrary, it triggers the closing of the opening 2 when the photovoltaic cell no longer receives sufficient light.
