Description
La présente invention a trait à un câble d'actionnement pour volets d'airThe present invention relates to an actuating cable for air shutters
et dispositifs similaires, dans les automobiles ou véhicules and the like in automobiles or vehicles
de même nature.of the same nature.
L'actionnement des volets d'air et des petits éléments de construction similaires à l'aide de câbles Bowden est bien connu. Toutefois jusqu'à présent, le frottement du câble métallique à l'intérieur de la gaine de guidage imposait des limites relativement étroites à la longueur des commandes et aux possibilités d'installation. Les câbles devaient être relativement courts, et ne pouvaient pas, ou pratiquement pas décrire de courbes. En outre ils ne travaillaient qu'à la traction, le cas échéant Actuation of air flaps and similar small building elements using Bowden cables is well known. However, until now, the friction of the wire rope inside the guide sheath imposed relatively narrow limits on the length of the controls and the possibilities of installation. The cables had to be relatively short, and could not, or hardly describe curves. In addition they worked only on traction, if necessary
à l'encontre de la réaction d'un ressort de rappel. against the reaction of a return spring.
L'invention a pour but de proposer un câble d'actionnement perfectionné à frottement moindre et de plus grande longueur, susceptible de décrire It is an object of the invention to provide an improved, lower friction, longer actuation cable capable of describing
des courbes.curves.
Ce but est atteint par un câble d'actionnement présentant les caractéristiques énoncées à la revendication 1. L'amélioration par rapport à l'état actuel de la technique consiste essentiellement à: a) réduire le diamètre du câble d'acier par martelage et à lui conférer ainsi une surface extérieure lisse, et b) à enfiler ce câble lisse dans une gaine en matière plastique servant de guidage. Cette combinaison réduit considérablement les frottements, ce qui permet de faire décrire beaucoup plus facilement des courbes au câble. En d'autres termes même quand le câble décrit une ou plusieurs courbes, la commande reste facile à actionner, grâce à la réduction du frottement. En outre, le câble métallique est tellement plus rigide en lui-même que la commande peut fonctionner à la compression This object is achieved by an actuating cable having the features set forth in claim 1. The improvement over the current state of the art consists essentially of: a) reducing the diameter of the steel cable by hammering and to give it a smooth outer surface, and b) to thread this smooth cable in a plastic sheath serving as a guide. This combination significantly reduces friction, making it much easier to describe curves on the cable. In other words even when the cable describes one or more curves, the control remains easy to operate, thanks to the reduction of the friction. In addition, the wire rope is so much stiffer in itself that the drive can operate at compression
aussi bien qu'à la traction.as well as to traction.
Les câbles martelés ou calibrés ne constituent pas une nouveauté en soi, et ce n'est pas une nouveauté non plus que d'utiliser une gaine en matière synthétique comme guidage; par contre la combinaison cable métallique martel& - gaine de guidage synthétique est bien une solution nouvelle, en particulier pour l'actionnement d'éléments de construction mobiles de faibles dimensions. Les avantages techniques multiples qui en découlent sont surprenants et leur diversité n'était pas prévisible à Hammered or calibrated cables are not new in themselves, nor is it novelty to use a plastic sheath as a guide; on the other hand, the combination metal cable martel & - synthetic guide sheath is a new solution, in particular for the actuation of movable construction elements of small dimensions. The resulting multiple technical benefits are surprising and their diversity was not predictable at
première vue.first sight.
Le dessin annex6, donné à titre d'exemple, permettra de mieux comprendre l'invention, les caractéristiques qu'elle présente et les avantages qu'elle est susceptible de procurer: Fig. 1 est une coupe transversale d'un câble martelé à surface extérieure lisse et Fig. 2 est une vue schématique d'une commande selon l'invention. Le câble métallique de la commande selon l'invention est référencé par le repère 1 sur la fig. 1. Il s'agit d'un câble torsadé I sept torons, dont le diamètre selon la figure a été réduit pas martelage à partir d'un diamètre initial supérieur, ce qui a pour effet de comprimer The annexed drawing, given by way of example, will allow a better understanding of the invention, the characteristics that it presents and the advantages that it is likely to provide: FIG. 1 is a cross-section of a hammered cable with a smooth outer surface and FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a control according to the invention. The metal cable of the control according to the invention is referenced by the reference 1 in FIG. 1. This is a twisted I I seven-strand cable, whose diameter according to the figure has been reduced not hammering from a higher initial diameter, which has the effect of compressing
le câble. La figure montre la surface périphérique lisse du câble. the cable. The figure shows the smooth peripheral surface of the cable.
Comme on le voit sur la figure 2, le câble 1 à surface lisse est o enfilé dans une gaine flexible 2 en matière plastique. Elle montre le trajet courbe de la commande ainsi réalisée. Des oeillets la sont fixés aux extrémités du câble métallique 1 et des collerettes d'ancrage 2a sont disposées aux extrémités de la gaine synthétique 2, ces accessoires permettant respectivement de raccorder le câble aux autres éléments de la commande et de fixer la gaine 2 à des parois ou autres supports. Ces As can be seen in FIG. 2, the smooth-surfaced cable 1 is threaded into a flexible plastic sheath 2. It shows the curved path of the control thus achieved. Eyelets are attached to the ends of the wire rope 1 and anchoring flanges 2a are disposed at the ends of the synthetic sheath 2, these accessories respectively for connecting the cable to the other elements of the control and to fix the sheath 2 to walls or other supports. These
accessoires sont de fabrication conventionnelle. accessories are of conventional manufacture.
On notera que la gaine 2 peut être composée de plusieurs couches It will be noted that the sheath 2 can be composed of several layers
de matières plastiques de natures différentes. plastics of different natures.
Il doit d'ailleurs être entendu que la description qui précède n'a It must, moreover, be understood that the foregoing description
été donnée qu'à titre d'exemple et qu'elle ne limite nullement le domaine de l'invention dont on ne sortirait pas en remplaçant les given as an example and that it does not limit in any way the field of invention of which we would not go out by replacing the
détails d'exécution décrits par tous autres équivalents. Execution details described by all other equivalents.
