- a body 31 comprising said orifice traversed by the drive screw 20;
- Bearing means 25 such as ball bearings
- a device 27 having the function of a nut whose orifice is coaxial with that of the orifice of the carriage 24 so as to allow the orifice of this device 27 to be traversed by the drive screw 20; the threads 30 of this device 27 at least partially project into the hole of the carriage 24, which allows them to cooperate with the threads 60 of the drive screw 20 and thus ensure the displacement and guidance of said carriage 24 in the slide 5; according to an alternative embodiment of the invention, the device 27 may comprise at least one pair of tips whose respective ends open into the hole of the carriage 24, the end of each of these points being shaped so as to cooperate with the threads 60 of the drive screw 20.
- the body 31 of the carriage 24 is extended by a hooking lug 28 in order to be able to connect the carriage 24 to an apron of the shutter 1 by means of this lug 28.
- the latching lug 28 of the carriage 24 can be connected to the aprons by means of an intermediate piece 32 fixed against the transverse edge of the junction profile assembly 3a - longitudinal edge 8 of an end leaf 2 ", and against the latching lug 28.
- the carriages 24 included in the upper crosspiece 12 provide guiding, levitation and driving, those included in the lower cross member 12, which preferably do not include bearing means 25, providing guiding and driving.
- This configuration advantageously allows the rotation of the leaves 2 relative to each other in particular at the time of opening of the shutter 1, which makes possible their misalignment without manual intervention.
- the transmission means may comprise: • at least two sleeves 55 which extend in stiffening and centering means 70;
- rolling means 56 such as ball bearings included in the sleeves 55;
- these transmission means can communicate the rotational movement of the output shaft 36 of the motor 23 to the drive screws 20, while ensuring the synchronization of their movements.
- the slides 5 may be shaped to allow the shutter 1 to close and / or protect an opening of a curved facade, such as for example a curved bay.
- the slides 5 may be curved and may include, for example:
- Two pairs of fins 122, 123 each respectively connected to the inner face of a respective fold 120 and to the inner face of the opposite side, each of these fins 123 being substantially coaxial with a respective fin 122 connected to one of said folds 120.
- each pair of coaxial fins 122, 123 delimits, with one of the corresponding lateral sides of the slideway 5, a space in which may be arranged a preferably roller chain or a toothed or perforated belt (not shown), the upper end of each support element 4 or a connecting profile 3a being connected to this chain or to this belt which is itself connected directly or indirectly to the output shaft of an engine or a motorcycle - reducer.
- the movement of the drive means which is constituted in this case by the chain or the belt, is transmitted to the support and guide elements 4 or to a longitudinal edge 8, which allows a translation of the aprons. .
