Abstract

The tilting door (9) has a frame (13) fitted to the masonry structure (27), to hold at least two door panels (18-20). Each panel has a vertical alignment when the door is closed, to cover the door height, vertically over each other across the door width. Each panel has an inner (23) and an outer (24) wall, with a gap between them to be filled with insulation material. Each panel is self-supporting, to give a rigid and reinforced structure apart from the frame.

Le vantail peut être déplacé entre une position fermée - dans laquelle il est sensiblement vertical - et une position ouverte - dans laquelle il est sensiblement horizontal.A leaf of this type generally comprises a frame adapted to cooperate with the masonry of a building for receiving said leaf, the frame itself comprising two uprights and two crosspieces. The leaf can be moved between a closed position - in which it is substantially vertical - and an open position - in which it is substantially horizontal.

En outre, les vantaux de portes basculantes comprennent souvent un portillon permettant à un utilisateur d'entrer dans le bâtiment de façon simple, sans avoir à ouvrir la totalité du vantail par basculement.In addition, the doors of overhead doors often include a door that allows a user to enter the building in a simple way, without having to open the entire leaf by tilting.

Il s'ensuit que, dans l'art antérieur, les vantaux de portes basculantes munies d'un portillon comprennent, en plus du cadre :

  • au moins un premier profilé s'étendant verticalement à distance d'un montant du cadre sur toute la hauteur du vantail ;
  • un châssis, disposé sur sensiblement toute la hauteur du vantail, entre un montant du cadre et le premier profilé, le châssis étant destiné à recevoir le portillon ;
  • au moins un second profilé s'étendant horizontalement à mi hauteur de la porte entre un montant du cadre et le premier profilé, dans la partie du vantail ne comportant pas le portillon.
It follows that, in the prior art, the doors of tilting doors provided with a door include, in addition to the frame:
  • at least one first section extending vertically away from a frame upright over the entire height of the leaf;
  • a frame, arranged on substantially the entire height of the leaf, between a frame of the frame and the first section, the frame being intended to receive the gate;
  • at least one second section extending horizontally at mid height of the door between a frame upright and the first section, in the portion of the leaf not comprising the door.

Des panneaux constitués d'une simple tôle, et s'étendant sur sensiblement toute la hauteur du vantail, sont fixés à la structure porteuse constituée du cadre, du châssis et des premier et second profilés, afin de former le vantail. Un premier panneau, fixé sur le châssis, forme le portillon, un second panneau, fixé sur le cadre et les premier et second profilés formant le reste du vantail.Panels consisting of a single sheet, and extending over substantially the entire height of the leaf, are fixed to the supporting structure consisting of the frame, the frame and the first and second sections, to form the leaf. A first panel, fixed on the frame, forms the gate, a second panel, fixed on the frame and the first and second sections forming the rest of the leaf.

Le vantail ainsi réalisé comporte plusieurs inconvénients. Notamment, il ne présente aucune propriété d'isolation ni d'étanchéité, et son aspect est peu satisfaisant, puisque les structures de renfort sont apparentes. De plus, le vantail peut être relativement long à monter.The leaf thus produced has several disadvantages. In particular, it has no property of insulation or sealing, and its appearance is little satisfactory, since the reinforcing structures are apparent. In addition, the leaf can be relatively long to mount.

On connaît par ailleurs des portes sectionnelles, dont le vantail est composé de panneaux s'étendant horizontalement - lorsque le vantail est en position fermée- sur toute la largeur dudit vantail. Deux panneaux adjacents sont articulés l'un à l'autre.Sectional doors are also known, whose leaf is composed of panels extending horizontally - when the leaf is in the closed position - over the entire width of said leaf. Two adjacent panels are hinged to each other.

Pour l'ouverture de la porte, le vantail est déplacé verticalement, le panneau supérieur pivotant depuis la position verticale vers la position horizontale, tandis que le panneau suivant reste vertical. Ceci est rendu possible par les articulations entre panneaux successifs. Successivement, les panneaux suivants - depuis la partie supérieure du vantail jusqu'à sa partie inférieure - vont effectuer le même mouvement jusqu'à ce que le vantail soit sensiblement plan et horizontal.For the opening of the door, the leaf is moved vertically, the upper panel pivoting from the vertical position to the horizontal position, while the next panel remains vertical. This is made possible by the joints between successive panels. Successively, the following panels - from the upper part of the leaf to its lower part - will make the same movement until the leaf is substantially flat and horizontal.

Chacun des panneaux horizontaux comporte une paroi intérieure et une paroi extérieure sensiblement planes délimitant un espace contenant un matériau isolant.Each of the horizontal panels has a substantially planar inner wall and outer wall defining a space containing an insulating material.

Les portes sectionnelles de ce type présentent donc de très bonnes propriétés d'isolation et d'étanchéité.Sectional doors of this type therefore have very good insulating and sealing properties.

Toutefois, elles sont plus coûteuses que les portes basculantes, notamment parce qu'elles nécessitent des articulations entre deux panneaux adjacents. De plus, du fait du positionnement horizontal des panneaux, il est difficile de prévoir un portillon sans mettre en oeuvre des dispositifs mécaniques relativement complexes.However, they are more expensive than the overhead doors, in particular because they require joints between two adjacent panels. In addition, because of the horizontal positioning of the panels, it is difficult to provide a gate without implementing relatively complex mechanical devices.

DE 19 56 744 U et/ou DE 83 05 964 U décrivent un vantail pour porte basculante à effacement au plafond et débattement vertical, dans lequel le vantail peut être déplacé entre une position fermée où le vantail est sensiblement vertical et une position ouverte ou le vantail est sensiblement horizontal. Ce vantail est du type comportant d'abord un cadre apte à coopérer avec la maçonnerie du bâtiment destinée à recevoir le vantail. Ce vantail est du type comportant ensuite au moins deux panneaux liés au cadre en question, chaque panneau s'étendant verticalement, lorsque le vantail est en position fermée, sur sensiblement toute la hauteur du vantail, les panneaux étant placés les uns à côté des autres sur sensiblement toute la largeur du vantail et assemblés les uns aux autres. Chaque panneau est autoporteur, de sorte que le vantail est dépourvu de structure de rigidité ou de renfort autre que le cadre. Il est en outre modulaire, dimensionnellement et fonctionnellement, ce qui permet, par sélection et assemblage, de couvrir une large gamme de vantaux. DE 19 56 744 U and or DE 83 05 964 U describe a leaf for up-and-down door with ceiling clearing and vertical clearance, in which the leaf can be moved between a closed position where the leaf is substantially vertical and an open position or the leaf is substantially horizontal. This leaf is of the type comprising first a frame adapted to cooperate with the masonry of the building intended to receive the leaf. This leaf is of the type then comprising at least two panels related to the frame in question, each panel extending vertically, when the leaf is in the closed position, over substantially the entire height of the leaf, the panels being placed next to each other over substantially the entire width of the leaf and assembled to each other. Each panel is self-supporting, so that the leaf is devoid of any stiffness or reinforcement structure other than the frame. It is also modular, dimensionally and functionally, which allows, by selection and assembly, to cover a wide range of leaves.

DE 16 59 848 A décrit un panneau d'un vantail pour porte basculante qui comporte une paroi intérieure et une paroi extérieure sensiblement planes, délimitant un espace contenant un matériau isolant. Chaque panneau est autoporteur, de sorte que le vantail est dépourvu de structure de rigidité ou de renfort autre que le cadre. DE 16 59 848 A discloses a door panel for a swing door which has a substantially flat inner wall and outer wall, defining a space containing an insulating material. Each panel is self-supporting, so that the leaf is devoid of any stiffness or reinforcement structure other than the frame.

L'invention a pour but de fournir un vantail de porte basculante ne présentant pas les inconvénients de l'art antérieur.The object of the invention is to provide a door leaf that does not have the drawbacks of the prior art.

A cet effet, et selon un premier aspect, l'invention concerne un vantail du type comportant :

  • un cadre apte à coopérer avec la maçonnerie d'un bâtiment destiné à recevoir ledit vantail ;
  • au moins deux panneaux liés audit cadre, chaque panneau s'étendant verticalement, lorsque le vantail est en position fermée, sur sensiblement toute la hauteur dudit vantail, les panneaux étant placés les uns à côté des autres sur sensiblement toute la largeur du vantail et assemblés les uns aux autres.
For this purpose, and according to a first aspect, the invention relates to a leaf of the type comprising:
  • a frame adapted to cooperate with the masonry of a building intended to receive said leaf;
  • at least two panels connected to said frame, each panel extending vertically, when the leaf is in the closed position, over substantially the entire height of said leaf, the panels being placed next to each other over substantially the entire width of the leaf and assembled each other.

Chaque panneau comporte une paroi intérieure et une paroi extérieure sensiblement planes délimitant un espace contenant un matériau isolant, et chaque panneau est autoporteur, de sorte que le vantail est dépourvu de structure de rigidité ou de renfort autre que le cadre, et est en outre modulaire, dimensionnellement et fonctionnellement, ce qui permet, par sélection et assemblage, de couvrir une large gamme de vantaux correspondant sensiblement à la totalité des demandes et besoins des utilisateurs.Each panel has a substantially planar inner wall and outer wall delimiting a space containing an insulating material, and each panel is self-supporting, so that the leaf has no stiffness or reinforcement structure other than the frame, and is furthermore modular , dimensionally and functionally, which allows, by selection and assembly, to cover a wide range of leaves corresponding substantially to all the demands and needs of users.

Selon l'invention, les bords latéraux des parois intérieure et extérieure de chacun des panneaux présentent des replis vers l'intérieur dudit panneau et les profilés d'assemblage sont aptes à coopérer avec lesdits replis.According to the invention, the lateral edges of the inner and outer walls of each of the panels have folds towards the inside of said panel and the connecting profiles are able to cooperate with said folds.

Le vantail selon l'invention présente ainsi de très bonnes propriétés d'isolation et d'étanchéité, tout en étant peu coûteux, facile à mettre en place et apte à répondre aux attentes des utilisateurs puisqu'il ne nécessite que peu de découpes des panneaux, des étapes d'assemblage moins contraignantes, aucune structure de renfort et une simple opération de sélection et d'assemblage des panneaux permettant de couvrir les attentes des utilisateurs.The leaf according to the invention thus has very good insulating and sealing properties, while being inexpensive, easy to set up and able to meet the expectations of users since it requires only a few blanks of the panels. , less constraining assembly steps, no reinforcement structure and a simple operation of selecting and assembling the panels to cover the expectations of users.

De plus, l'absence de structure de renfort contribue à améliorer considérablement l'esthétique de la porte basculante.In addition, the absence of reinforcing structure contributes to considerably improve the aesthetics of the overhead door.

Enfin, le fait de réaliser des panneaux verticaux permet de prévoir la mise en place d'un portillon à peu de frais et sans travaux importants.Finally, the fact of making vertical panels can provide for the establishment of a gate at low cost and without major work.

Selon l'invention, un profilé d'assemblage longitudinal est lié à chaque bord latéral de chacun des panneaux, un profilé d'assemblage lié à un panneau étant apte à coopérer avec un profilé d'assemblage adjacent lié au panneau voisin, ou avec le cadre du vantail, de sorte à permettre l'assemblage des panneaux et du cadre constitutifs du vantail.According to the invention, a longitudinal assembly section is bonded to each lateral edge of each of the panels, an assembly section connected to a panel being able to cooperate with an adjacent assembly section connected to the adjacent panel, or with the frame of the leaf, so as to allow the assembly of the panels and the framework of the leaf.

Le cadre et/ou les profilés d'assemblage peuvent comporter des gorges aptes à recevoir des moyens d'étanchéité. Ces moyens d'étanchéité comprennent par exemple des joints bi-matière comportant au moins une partie en matière rigide destinée à être insérée dans les gorges du cadre et/ou des profilés d'assemblage, et au moins une partie en matière souple apte à venir en appui sur la surface en regard desdites gorges.The frame and / or the assembly profiles may include grooves adapted to receive sealing means. These sealing means comprise, for example, bi-material seals comprising at least one part made of rigid material intended to be inserted into the grooves of the frame and / or of the assembly profiles, and at least one portion of flexible material capable of coming resting on the surface facing said grooves.

Selon une réalisation possible, le vantail comprend trois panneaux, la largeur de chaque panneau étant sensiblement égale au tiers de la largeur totale du vantail.According to one possible embodiment, the leaf comprises three panels, the width of each panel being substantially equal to one third of the total width of the leaf.

L'un des panneaux est apte à former un portillon, ledit portillon étant monté à pivotement à un panneau voisin ou au cadre du vantail et pouvant comporter une serrure trois points.One of the panels is adapted to form a gate, said gate being pivotally mounted to a neighboring panel or to the door frame and may include a three-point lock.

Du fait du caractère modulaire du vantail selon l'invention, chaque panneau est interchangeable avec les autres panneaux du vantail, qu'il forme portillon ou non. Ceci permet donc de ne fabriquer qu'un seul type de panneau pour chaque type de vantail, ce qui rend le procédé de réalisation du vantail très économique. La réalisation du portillon se fait aisément en associant le type de profilés d'assemblage adapté à un des panneaux et en installant par exemple une serrure trois points sur ce panneau.Because of the modular nature of the leaf according to the invention, each panel is interchangeable with the other panels of the leaf, whether gate or not. This therefore makes it possible to manufacture only one type of panel for each type of leaf, which makes the method of producing the leaf very economical. The realization of the gate is easily done by combining the type of assembly profiles adapted to one of the panels and by installing for example a three-point lock on this panel.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques, les panneaux comprennent des caches destinés à recouvrir les tranches supérieure et inférieure desdits panneaux.According to other features, the panels comprise covers intended to cover the upper and lower edges of said panels.

Par exemple, les parois intérieure et extérieure de chaque panneau sont réalisées en tôle et le matériau isolant est une mousse polyuréthanne.For example, the inner and outer walls of each panel are made of sheet metal and the insulating material is a polyurethane foam.

Selon un deuxième aspect, l'invention se rapporte à une porte basculante à effacement au plafond et débattement vertical, comprenant :

  • un encadrement destiné à être fixé à la maçonnerie d'un bâtiment, ledit encadrement comportant deux montants sensiblement verticaux et une traverse supérieure sensiblement horizontale, et délimitant une baie ;
  • et un vantail tel que précédemment décrit, ledit vantail étant relié à l'encadrement par un dispositif de basculement et étant destiné à obturer ladite baie lorsqu'il est en position fermée.
According to a second aspect, the invention relates to an overhead door with ceiling and vertical deflection, comprising:
  • a frame intended to be fixed to the masonry of a building, said frame comprising two substantially vertical uprights and a substantially horizontal upper cross member and delimiting a bay;
  • and a leaf as previously described, said leaf being connected to the frame by a tilting device and being intended to close said bay when in the closed position.

Enfin, selon un troisième aspect, l'invention se rapporte à un procédé d'assemblage d'un tel vantail dans lequel :

  • on réalise au moins deux panneaux ;
  • on place les panneaux les uns à côté des autres et on assemble les panneaux adjacents deux à deux le long de leurs bords latéraux ;
  • on fixe les panneaux au cadre.
Finally, according to a third aspect, the invention relates to a method of assembling such a leaf in which:
  • at least two panels are made;
  • the panels are placed next to one another and the adjacent panels are assembled two by two along their lateral edges;
  • we fix the panels to the frame.

La réalisation d'un panneau comprend par exemple les étapes suivantes :

  • on assemble les parois intérieure et extérieure du panneau et les profilés d'assemblage, en insérant les bords latéraux des parois dans lesdits profilés d'assemblage ;
  • on injecte le matériau isolant dans l'espace délimité par lesdites parois intérieure et extérieure du panneau ;
  • on fixe les caches sur les tranches supérieure et inférieure du panneau.
The realization of a panel comprises for example the following steps:
  • assembling the inner and outer walls of the panel and the connecting profiles, inserting the side edges of the walls in said connecting profiles;
  • the insulating material is injected into the space defined by said inner and outer walls of the panel;
  • the covers are fixed on the upper and lower edges of the panel.

Selon une réalisation possible, deux panneaux voisins sont assemblés l'un à l'autre par emboîtement des profilés d'assemblage adjacents fixés aux bords latéraux des panneaux.According to a possible embodiment, two adjacent panels are assembled to one another by interlocking adjacent assembly profiles attached to the side edges of the panels.

Les autres caractéristiques de l'invention résultent de la description qui suit d'un mode de réalisation, description effectuée en référence aux figures annexées dans lesquelles :

  • la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'une porte basculante selon l'invention, le vantail étant dans une position intermédiaire entre la position fermée et la position ouverte ;

On se réfère tout d'abord aux figures 1 et 2 qui représentent une porte 1 basculante, à effacement au plafond et débattement vertical, par exemple une porte de garage.We first refer to Figures 1 and 2 which represent a door 1 tilting, erasing the ceiling and vertical travel, for example a garage door.

On définit une première direction D1, sensiblement verticale, par rapport à laquelle seront employés les termes « longitudinal », « hauteur », « inférieur », « supérieur ».We define a first direction D1, substantially vertical, with respect to which will be used the terms "longitudinal", "height", "lower", "higher".

La porte 1 comprend un encadrement 2, destiné à être fixé à la maçonnerie d'un bâtiment, ledit encadrement 2 comprenant lui-même deux montants verticaux 3, 4 ainsi qu'une traverse supérieure 5 sensiblement horizontale et une barre de seuil 6, fixée au sol, entre les extrémités inférieures des deux montants 3, 4.The door 1 comprises a frame 2, intended to be fixed to the masonry of a building, said frame 2 itself comprising two vertical uprights 3, 4 and a substantially horizontal upper cross member 5 and a threshold bar 6, fixed on the ground, between the lower ends of the two uprights 3, 4.

On définit une deuxième direction D2, sensiblement parallèle aux traverses 5, 6, par rapport à laquelle seront employés les termes « latéral », « transversal », « largeur », « gauche », « droit », ainsi qu'une troisième direction D3 telle que (D1, D2, D3) forme un repère orthogonal.We define a second direction D2, substantially parallel to the cross members 5, 6, with respect to which will be used the terms "lateral", "transverse", "width", "left", "right", and a third direction D3 such that (D1, D2, D3) forms an orthogonal reference.

La porte 1 est également munie de deux rails de guidage 7, 8, s'étendant selon la direction D3 depuis la traverse supérieure 5 et chacun des montants 3, 4. Les rails de guidage 7, 8 sont destinés à être fixés au plafond à l'intérieur du bâtiment.The door 1 is also provided with two guide rails 7, 8, extending in the direction D3 from the upper cross member 5 and each of the uprights 3, 4. The guide rails 7, 8 are intended to be fixed to the ceiling at inside the building.

La porte 1 délimite ainsi une baie et comprend en outre un vantail 9, lié à la porte 1 par un dispositif de basculement comportant des bras latéraux 10 et un système mécanique muni de roulettes 11 aptes à coopérer avec les rails de guidage 7, 8.The door 1 defines a bay and further comprises a leaf 9, linked to the door 1 by a tilting device having side arms 10 and a mechanical system provided with rollers 11 adapted to cooperate with the guide rails 7, 8.

Le vantail 9 est apte à être déplacé par basculement entre une position fermée - dans laquelle il est sensiblement vertical et obture la baie (figure 2) - et une position ouverte - dans laquelle il est sensiblement horizontal et parallèle aux rails de guidage 7, 8, à proximité du plafond. La porte 1 comprend une serrure un point 12 destinée à permettre le verrouillage du vantail 9 en position fermée.The leaf 9 is able to be moved by tilting between a closed position - in which it is substantially vertical and closes the bay ( figure 2 ) - and an open position - in which it is substantially horizontal and parallel to the guide rails 7, 8, near the ceiling. The door 1 comprises a lock 12 point for allowing the locking of the leaf 9 in the closed position.

L'équilibrage de la porte 1 est réalisé par deux ressorts non représentés.The balancing of the door 1 is made by two springs not shown.

Le vantail 9 comprend un cadre 13 apte à coopérer avec l'encadrement 2 fixe de la porte 1. Le cadre 13 du vantail 9 comprend deux montants verticaux 14, 15, ainsi que deux traverses horizontales, respectivement supérieure 16 et inférieure 17. Le cadre 13 est par exemple constitué de profilés métalliques creux de section fermée.The leaf 9 comprises a frame 13 adapted to cooperate with the fixed frame 2 of the door 1. The frame 13 of the leaf 9 comprises two vertical uprights 14, 15, and two horizontal crosspieces, respectively upper 16 and lower 17. The frame 13 is for example made of hollow section metal sections closed.

Le vantail 9 comprend trois panneaux 18, 19, 20 liés au cadre 13 et placés les uns à côtés des autres de façon à couvrir sensiblement toute la largeur du vantail 9, à l'intérieur du cadre 13. La largeur de chaque panneau 18, 19, 20 est sensiblement égale au tiers de la largeur totale du vantail 9. Chaque panneau 18, 19, 20 s'étend verticalement, lorsque le vantail 9 est en position fermée, sur sensiblement toute la hauteur du vantail 9, à l'intérieur du cadre 13.The leaf 9 comprises three panels 18, 19, 20 connected to the frame 13 and placed next to each other so as to cover substantially the entire width of the leaf 9, inside the frame 13. The width of each panel 18, 19, 20 is substantially equal to one third of the total width of the leaf 9. Each panel 18, 19, 20 extends vertically, when the leaf 9 is in the closed position, over substantially the entire height of the leaf 9, inside the frame 13.

Selon d'autre modes de réalisation non représentés, le vantail 9 pourrait comprendre un nombre différent de panneaux.According to other embodiments not shown, the leaf 9 could comprise a different number of panels.

L'un des panneaux situé à une extrémité latérale du vantail 9 est articulé au cadre 13 du vantail 9 via des paumelles 21 et muni d'une poignée 22, et forme ainsi un portillon 18.One of the panels located at one lateral end of the leaf 9 is hinged to the frame 13 of the leaf 9 via hinges 21 and provided with a handle 22, and thus forms a gate 18.

Chaque panneau 18, 19, 20 - y compris le portillon 18 - comprend, comme illustré sur la figure 7, une paroi intérieure 23 et une paroi extérieure 24 sensiblement planes, réalisées en tôle laquée. La paroi extérieure 24 peut comporter des motifs emboutis (voir figure 1).Each panel 18, 19, 20 - including the gate 18 - comprises, as illustrated in FIG. figure 7 , an inner wall 23 and an outer wall 24 substantially flat, made of lacquered sheet. The outer wall 24 may comprise embossed patterns (see figure 1 ).

Les parois intérieure 23 et extérieure 24 délimitent entre elles un espace contenant un matériau isolant du point de vue thermique et /ou phonique (non représenté), tel qu'une mousse polyuréthanne injectée entre les deux parois 23, 24, ou des fibres.The inner 23 and outer 24 walls delimit between them a space containing a thermally insulating material and / or sound (not shown), such as a polyurethane foam injected between the two walls 23, 24, or fibers.

L'épaisseur des parois intérieure 23 et extérieure 24 est de l'ordre de 0,4 à 0,6 mm. L'épaisseur d'un panneau 18, 19, 20 est de l'ordre de 20 à 30 mm, notamment 21 mm.The thickness of the inner 23 and outer 24 walls is of the order of 0.4 to 0.6 mm. The thickness of a panel 18, 19, 20 is of the order of 20 to 30 mm, in particular 21 mm.

Il est à noter que les différents éléments de la figure 7 ont été représentés sans tenir compte de leur épaisseur réelle, afin de faciliter la compréhension.It should be noted that the different elements of the figure 7 were represented without regard to their actual thickness, to facilitate understanding.

Les panneaux 18, 19, 20 comprennent en outre des caches 25 destinés à recouvrir les tranches supérieure et inférieure desdits panneaux 18, 19, 20, comme il sera décrit plus loin en référence aux figures 10 et 11.The panels 18, 19, 20 further comprise covers 25 intended to cover the upper and lower edges of said panels 18, 19, 20, as will be described below with reference to FIGS. figures 10 and 11 .

Enfin, chacun des panneaux 18, 19, 20 comprend un profilé d'assemblage 26 longitudinal fixé à chacun de ses bords latéraux. Les profilés d'assemblage 26 sont réalisés en tôle laauée, et sont destinés d'une part à contenir la mousse polyuréthanne et d'autre part à permettre l'assemblage de deux panneaux 18, 19, 20 adjacents, ou l'assemblage d'un panneau 18, 19, 20 au cadre 13.Finally, each of the panels 18, 19, 20 comprises a longitudinal assembly section 26 fixed to each of its lateral edges. The assembly profiles 26 are made of sheet metal laauée, and are intended on the one hand to contain the foam polyurethane and secondly to allow the assembly of two panels 18, 19, 20 adjacent, or the assembly of a panel 18, 19, 20 to the frame 13.

Les profilés d'assemblage 26 intègrent donc des fonctionnalités mécaniques d'assemblage, ainsi que des fonctionnalités d'étanchéité, et permettent une gestion simplifiée des bords latéraux des parois des panneaux 18, 19, 20. Chaque panneau 18, 19, 20 est autoporteur, de sorte que le vantail 9 est dépourvu de structure de rigidité ou de renfort autre que le cadre 13, telle que des profilés longitudinaux ou transversaux. Le portillon 18, réalisé à partir d'un panneau isolant tel que précédemment décrit, est également dépourvu de structure de renfort, telle qu'un châssis fixé au cadre 13 du vantail 9.The assembly profiles 26 thus incorporate mechanical assembly functions, as well as sealing functions, and allow simplified management of the lateral edges of the walls of the panels 18, 19, 20. Each panel 18, 19, 20 is self-supporting , so that the leaf 9 is devoid of stiffness or reinforcement structure other than the frame 13, such as longitudinal or transverse profiles. The gate 18, made from an insulating panel as previously described, is also devoid of a reinforcing structure, such as a frame fixed to the frame 13 of the leaf 9.

Les panneaux 18, 19, 20 sont modulaires, en termes de largeur, hauteur, et de fonctionnalités latérales. Ainsi, la prévision d'un nombre limité de panneaux 18, 19, 20 permet, par sélection et assemblage, de couvrir une large gamme de vantaux, correspondant à la quasi totalité des demandes et besoins des utilisateurs.The panels 18, 19, 20 are modular in terms of width, height, and side features. Thus, the provision of a limited number of panels 18, 19, 20 makes it possible, by selection and assembly, to cover a wide range of leaves, corresponding to almost all the requests and needs of the users.

On décrit à présent l'assemblage des panneaux 18, 19, 20 entre eux et au cadre 13, ainsi que les différents types de profilés d'assemblage 26 prévus à cet effet, en fonction de la position des panneaux 18, 19, 20 dans le vantail 9. On se reportera aux figures 3 à 9.We now describe the assembly of the panels 18, 19, 20 between them and the frame 13, as well as the different types of assembly profiles 26 provided for this purpose, depending on the position of the panels 18, 19, 20 in the leaf 9. Reference is made to Figures 3 to 9 .

La figure 3 est une vue schématique en coupe transversale, représentant le portillon 18 et les deux autres panneaux 19, 20, le cadre 13 du vantail 9, l'encadrement 2 fixe de la porte 1, ainsi que la maçonnerie 27 d'un bâtiment recevant la porte 1. Sur la figure 3 sont également indiqué l'intérieur I et l'extérieur E du bâtiment.The figure 3 is a schematic view in cross section, showing the gate 18 and the two other panels 19, 20, the frame 13 of the leaf 9, the fixed frame 2 of the door 1, and the masonry 27 of a building receiving the door 1. On the figure 3 the inside I and outside E of the building are also indicated.

L'invention prévoit de réaliser un vantail 9 à l'aide d'un nombre réduit de profilés d'assemblage 26, afin de limiter les coûts de fabrication et de stockage. Ainsi, dans le mode de réalisation illustré, seuls quatre types de profilés d'assemblage 26 différents sont nécessaires. Les profilés d'assemblage présentent des formes complémentaires afin de pouvoir être emboîtés les uns dans les autres pour l'assemblage des différentes parties constitutives du vantail 9. L'épaisseur des différents profilés d'assemblage est de l'ordre de 0,5 à 1 mm.The invention provides for producing a leaf 9 using a reduced number of assembly profiles 26, in order to limit manufacturing and storage costs. Thus, in the illustrated embodiment, only four types of different joining profiles 26 are required. The joining profiles have complementary shapes so that they can be nested within each other to the assembly of the various constituent parts of the leaf 9. The thickness of the various assembly profiles is of the order of 0.5 to 1 mm.

On décrit successivement chacun des quatre types de profilés d'assemblage 26 prévus par l'invention.Each of the four types of joining profiles 26 provided by the invention are successively described.

Un premier type de profilé d'assemblage 26a (figures 4 et 9) présente, en coupe transversale, la forme générale d'un H, comprenant une barre sensiblement médiane 28 et deux ailes 29, 30 solidaires de la barre 28, s'étendant depuis les extrémités de ladite barre 28 perpendiculairement à la barre 28.A first type of assembly profile 26a ( figures 4 and 9 ) has, in cross-section, the general shape of an H, comprising a substantially median bar 28 and two wings 29, 30 integral with the bar 28, extending from the ends of said bar 28 perpendicularly to the bar 28.

La première aile 29 comprend :

  • une première partie 31, solidaire de la barre 28 et s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à celle ci ;
  • une deuxième partie 32, solidaire de la première partie 31 et s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement à cette dernière du côté de l'extérieur du H, de façon à former un repli, de longueur supérieure à la longueur de la première partie 31.
The first wing 29 comprises:
  • a first portion 31 secured to the bar 28 and extending substantially perpendicular thereto;
  • a second part 32 secured to the first part 31 and extending substantially parallel to the latter part on the outside of the H, so as to form a fold, of greater length than the length of the first part 31.

La deuxième aile 30 comprend :

  • une première partie 33, solidaire de la barre 28 et s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à celle ci à l'opposé de la première partie 31 de la première aile 29 ;
  • une deuxième partie 34, solidaire de la première partie 33 et s'étendant sensiblement parallèle à cette dernière du côté de l'extérieur du H, dans la direction opposée à la première partie 33, de façon à former un repli, la longueur de cette partie étant sensiblement identique à la longueur de la deuxième partie 32 de la première aile 29 ;
  • une troisième partie 35, solidaire de la deuxième partie 34 et s'étendant sensiblement parallèle à cette dernière du côté de l'extérieur du H, de façon à former un repli, de longueur sensiblement identique à la longueur de la deuxième partie 34.
The second wing 30 comprises:
  • a first portion 33, integral with the bar 28 and extending substantially perpendicularly thereto opposite the first portion 31 of the first flange 29;
  • a second portion 34 secured to the first portion 33 and extending substantially parallel to the latter portion on the outside of the H, in the direction opposite to the first portion 33, so as to form a fold, the length of this part being substantially identical to the length of the second portion 32 of the first wing 29;
  • a third part 35, integral with the second part 34 and extending substantially parallel to the latter part on the outside of the H, so as to form a fold, of length substantially identical to the length of the second part 34.

Le premier type de profilé d'assemblage 26a peut être utilisé pour l'assemblage d'un panneau 18, 19, 20 au cadre 13, qu'il s'agisse ou non du portillon 18. Le premier type de profilé d'assemblage 26a peut servir à la fixation des paumelles 21.The first type of assembly profile 26a can be used for assembling a panel 18, 19, 20 to the frame 13, whether or not the door 18. The first type of assembly profile 26a can be used for fastening the hinges 21.

Un deuxième type de profilé d'assemblage 26b (figures 5, 6) présente, en coupe transversale, la forme générale d'un U, comprenant une première et une deuxième ailes 36, 37 sensiblement parallèles, s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à une base 38 dont elles sont solidaires. La longueur de la première aile 36 est plus petite que celle de la deuxième aile 37, par exemple de l'ordre de la moitié.A second type of assembly profile 26b ( figures 5 , 6 ) has, in cross section, the general shape of a U, comprising a first and a second substantially parallel wings 36, 37 extending substantially perpendicularly to a base 38 which they are integral. The length of the first flange 36 is smaller than that of the second flange 37, for example of the order of half.

Le deuxième type de profilé d'assemblage 26b peut être utilisé au niveau de la jonction entre le portillon 18 et le panneau 19 adjacent, la longueur relative des première et deuxième ailes 36, 37 correspondant à la différence de largeur entre les parois intérieure 23 et extérieure 24 du portillon 18 et permettant d'assurer l'appui du portillon 18 sur le panneau 19 adjacent. Ce deuxième type de profilé d'assemblage 26b n'est pas nécessaire si le vantail 9 ne comporte pas de portillon 18.The second type of joining profile 26b can be used at the junction between the door 18 and the adjacent panel 19, the relative length of the first and second flanges 36, 37 corresponding to the difference in width between the inner walls 23 and 24 of the door 18 and to ensure the support of the door 18 on the panel 19 adjacent. This second type of assembly profile 26b is not necessary if the leaf 9 does not have a gate 18.

Un troisième type de profilé d'assemblage 26c (figures 6, 7, 8) présente globalement, en coupe transversale, la forme d'un U comprenant une base 39 ainsi qu'une première et une deuxième ailes 40, 41 solidaires de la base 39, et s'étendant dans une direction générale perpendiculaire à celle de la base 39.A third type of assembly profile 26c ( figures 6 , 7, 8 ) has generally, in cross section, the shape of a U comprising a base 39 and a first and a second flange 40, 41 integral with the base 39, and extending in a general direction perpendicular to that of the base 39.

La première aile 40 comprend :

  • une première partie 42, solidaire de la base 39 et s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à celle ci ;
  • une deuxième partie 43, solidaire de la première partie 42 et s'étendant sensiblement parallèle à cette dernière du côté de l'extérieur du U, de façon à former un repli.
The first wing 40 comprises:
  • a first portion 42 integral with the base 39 and extending substantially perpendicularly thereto;
  • a second portion 43 secured to the first portion 42 and extending substantially parallel to the latter on the outside of the U, so as to form a fold.

La longueur totale de la première aile 40 est sensiblement égale à trois fois la longueur de la première aile 36 du deuxième type de profilé d'assemblage 26b, la longueur de la première partie 42 étant sensiblement égale à deux fois la longueur de la première aile 36 du troisième type de profilé d'assemblage 26c.The total length of the first flange 40 is substantially equal to three times the length of the first flange 36 of the second type of assembly section 26b, the length of the first portion 42 being substantially equal to twice the length of the first flange 36 of the third type of joining profile 26c.

La deuxième aile 41 comprend :

  • une première partie 44, solidaire de la base 39 et s'étendant dans une direction sensiblement perpendiculaire à celle de la base 39 dans le même sens que la première partie 42 de la première aile 40. Une gorge 45 est prévue dans la première partie 44. La gorge 45 s'étend selon la direction longitudinale du profilé d'assemblage 26c et est ouverte vers l'extérieur dudit profilé d'assemblage 26c, à proximité de la base 39. La gorge 45 est destinée à recevoir des moyens d'étanchéité ;
  • une deuxième partie 46, solidaire de la première partie 44 et s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement à cette dernière du côté de l'extérieur du U, de façon à former un repli.
The second wing 41 comprises:
  • a first part 44, integral with the base 39 and extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to that of the base 39 in the same direction as the first portion 42 of the first flange 40. A groove 45 is provided in the first part 44 The groove 45 extends in the longitudinal direction of the connecting profile 26c and is open towards the outside of said connecting section 26c, close to the base 39. The groove 45 is intended to receive sealing means ;
  • a second portion 46 secured to the first portion 44 and extending substantially parallel thereto on the outside of the U, so as to form a fold.

La distance entre la base 39 et la jonction entre la première partie 44 et la deuxième partie 46 de la deuxième aile 41 est sensiblement égale à la longueur de la première partie 42 de la première aile 40.The distance between the base 39 and the junction between the first portion 44 and the second portion 46 of the second flange 41 is substantially equal to the length of the first portion 42 of the first flange 40.

Le troisième type de profilé d'assemblage 26c peut être utilisé au niveau de la jonction entre deux panneaux 18, 19, 20 adjacents, que l'un desdits panneaux soit un portillon 18 ou non.The third type of joining profile 26c can be used at the junction between two panels 18, 19, 20 adjacent, one of said panels is a gate 18 or not.

Un quatrième type de profilé d'assemblage 26d (figure 8) présente, en coupe transversale, la forme d'un U comprenant une première et une deuxième ailes 47, 48 sensiblement parallèles et de même longueur, s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à une base 49 dont elles sont solidaires.A fourth type of assembly profile 26d ( figure 8 ) has, in cross section, the shape of a U comprising first and second wings 47, 48 substantially parallel and of the same length, extending substantially perpendicular to a base 49 which they are integral.

Le quatrième type de profilé d'assemblage 26d peut être utilisé pour l'assemblage entre eux de deux panneaux 19, 20 autres que le portillon 18, ainsi que pour l'assemblage d'un panneau 18, 19, 20 au cadre 13 (non représenté).The fourth type of assembly profile 26d can be used for the assembly together of two panels 19, 20 other than the gate 18, as well as for the assembly of a panel 18, 19, 20 to the frame 13 (no represent).

Afin de permettre l'assemblage de deux panneaux 18, 19, 20 adjacents via les profilés d'assemblage 26, les parties extrêmes latérales des parois intérieure 23 et extérieure 24 sont repliées vers l'intérieur du panneau 18, 19, 20 (voir notamment figure 7). Chaque paroi 23, 24 présente ainsi un repli 50 s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement à la paroi 23, 24 correspondante, du côté intérieur du panneau 18, 19, 20 lorsque lesdites parois 23, 24 sont montées.In order to allow the assembly of two adjacent panels 18, 19, 20 together via the connecting profiles 26, the lateral end portions of the inner and outer walls 23 and 23 are folded towards the inside of the panel 18, 19, 20 (see in particular figure 7 ). Each wall 23, 24 thus has a fold 50 extending substantially parallel to the corresponding wall 23, 24, on the inside of the panel 18, 19, 20 when said walls 23, 24 are mounted.

Selon le type de profilés d'assemblage 26, une aile ou la partie d'une aile formant un repli est insérée dans le repli du bord latéral d'une paroi 23, 24. L'espace formé entre un repli 50 et la paroi 23, 24 correspondante est suffisant pour permettre l'insertion d'une aile ou de la partie d'une aile du profilé d'assemblage 26 adéquat. La distance entre les parois intérieure 23 et extérieure 24 d'un panneau 18, 19, 20 est donc déterminée par les dimensions des profilés d'assemblage 26, et en particulier de la base 38, 39, 49 - ou de la barre 28 - desdits profilés d'assemblage 26.Depending on the type of assembly profiles 26, a wing or part of a wing forming a fold is inserted into the fold of the side edge of a wall 23, 24. The space formed between a fold 50 and the wall 23 , 24 corresponding is sufficient to allow the insertion of a wing or part of a wing of the fitting section 26 adequate. The distance between the inner and outer walls 23 of a panel 18, 19, 20 is thus determined by the dimensions of the connecting profiles 26, and in particular the base 38, 39, 49 - or the bar 28. said joining profiles 26.

L'assemblage du portillon 18 au cadre 13 est représenté sur le détail A de la figure 3 et sur la figure 4.The assembly of the gate 18 to the frame 13 is represented on the detail A of the figure 3 and on the figure 4 .

Dans le mode de réalisation représenté sur les figures, le portillon 18 est situé sur le côté gauche du vantail 9, lorsque l'on regarde le vantail 9 de l'extérieur (figure 1). Les paumelles 21 sont alors fixées au montant gauche 14 du cadre 13. Le portillon 18 est apte à être ouvert vers l'extérieur E du bâtiment. On peut toutefois envisager de modifier cette configuration : portillon placé à droite ou au centre du vantail, portillon monté pivotant sur un autre panneau plutôt que sur le cadre, portillon s'ouvrant vers l'intérieur.In the embodiment shown in the figures, the gate 18 is located on the left side of the leaf 9, when we look at the leaf 9 from the outside ( figure 1 ). The hinges 21 are then fixed to the left upright 14 of the frame 13. The door 18 is able to be open towards the outside E of the building. However, we can consider changing this configuration: gate placed on the right or the center of the leaf, gate pivotally mounted on another panel rather than the frame, door opening inward.

Un profilé d'assemblage du premier type 26a est prévu au bord du portillon 18 en regard du cadre 13 du vantail 9. Il permet la fixation des paumelles 21 au portillon 18, par exemple via des vis, les paumelles 21 étant par ailleurs fixées au cadre 13.An assembly section of the first type 26a is provided at the edge of the door 18 facing the frame 13 of the leaf 9. It allows the attachment of the hinges 21 to the door 18, for example via screws, the hinges 21 being also attached to the frame 13.

La jonction entre le panneau formant portillon 18 et le panneau adjacent 19 est représentée sur le détail B de la figure 3 et sur les figures 5 et 6.The junction between the gate panel 18 and the adjacent panel 19 is shown in detail B of the figure 3 and on figures 5 and 6 .

Un profilé d'assemblage du deuxième type 26b est prévu au bord latéral du portillon 18 en regard du panneau adjacent 19. Sur ce profilé d'assemblage 26b est fixé un montant longitudinal 51 (par emboîtement et/ou par vissage), sur sensiblement toute la hauteur du portillon 18. Le montant 51 supporte les moyens de fermeture du portillon (poignée 22, pêne 52, etc.)An assembly section of the second type 26b is provided at the lateral edge of the gate 18 opposite the adjacent panel 19. On this connecting section 26b is fixed a longitudinal amount 51 (by interlocking and / or screwing), on substantially any the height of the gate 18. The amount 51 supports the closing means of the gate (handle 22, bolt 52, etc.)

Un profilé d'assemblage du troisième type 26c est fixé au bord latéral du panneau 19 en regard du portillon 18, la gorge 45 étant dirigée vers la deuxième aile 37 du profilé d'assemblage 26b, de façon à permettre le positionnement d'un joint dans ladite gorge 45, afin de réaliser l'étanchéité entre le portillon 18 et le panneau 19.An assembly section of the third type 26c is attached to the lateral edge of the panel 19 facing the door 18, the groove 45 being directed towards the second flange 37 of the connecting section 26b, so as to allow the positioning of a joint in said groove 45, in order to seal between the door 18 and the panel 19.

Une gâche 53 est fixée sur le profilé 26c, par exemple via des vis non représentées. La gâche 53, destinée à recevoir le pêne 52, est une pièce en matière plastique, moulée, réversible. Elle permet, de part sa géométrie, un réglage et une adaptation sur les différents profilés, que ce soit en position centrale, haute ou basse (voir figure 2).A striker 53 is fixed on the profile 26c, for example via screws not shown. The keeper 53, intended to receive the bolt 52, is a plastic part, molded, reversible. It allows, due to its geometry, an adjustment and an adaptation on the various profiles, that it is in central, high or low position (see figure 2 ).

L'assemblage entre deux panneaux adjacents 19, 20 - aucun ne formant un portillon 18 - est représenté sur le détail C de la figure 3 et sur la figure 8.The assembly between two adjacent panels 19, 20 - none forming a gate 18 - is represented on the detail C of the figure 3 and on the figure 8 .

Au bord latéral du panneau 19 en regard du panneau 20 est fixé un profilé d'assemblage du troisième type 26c. Au bord latéral du panneau 20 est fixé un profilé d'assemblage du quatrième type 26d, de sorte que l'ouverture de U soit dirigée vers l'extérieur du panneau 20, c'est-à-dire vers le panneau 19 adjacent. Les profilés d'assemblage 26c et 26 d sont alors emboîtés l'un dans l'autre, leurs dimensions respectives étant prévues à cet effet.At the side edge of the panel 19 opposite the panel 20 is fixed an assembly section of the third type 26c. At the side edge of the panel 20 is attached a connecting profile of the fourth type 26d, so that the opening of U is directed outwardly of the panel 20, that is to say to the adjacent panel 19. The joining profiles 26c and 26d are then nested one inside the other, their respective dimensions being provided for this purpose.

Enfin, l'assemblage d'un panneau 20 ne formant pas portillon 18 au cadre 13 est représenté sur le détail D de la figure 3 et sur la figure 9.Finally, the assembly of a panel 20 not forming a door 18 to the frame 13 is shown in detail D of FIG. figure 3 and on the figure 9 .

A cet effet, un profilé d'assemblage du premier type 26a est fixé au bord latéral du panneau 20 en regard du cadre 13. Une fixation par vissage (non représentée) entre le cadre 13 et le profilé d'assemblage 26a est généralement utilisée.For this purpose, an assembly section of the first type 26a is attached to the lateral edge of the panel 20 facing the frame 13. A screw fixing (no shown) between the frame 13 and the connecting profile 26a is generally used.

Le cadre 13 du vantail 9 est réalisé à partir de profilés métalliques creux dont l'épaisseur des parois est de l'ordre de 1 mm, et qui présentent, en coupe transversale, la forme globale d'un parallélépipède. Le cadre 13 est en outre muni de deux gorges longitudinales 58 disposées sur une face du cadre destinée à être placée en regard de l'encadrement 2 fixe de la porte 1, pour l'insertion de moyens d'étanchéité. De plus, le cadre 13 est muni d'une lèvre 59 saillant de puis la face du cadre 13 destinée à être placée en regard des panneaux 18, 19, 20, vers l'intérieur du vantail 9. La lèvre 59 est conformée de sorte à définir une gorge 60 longitudinale apte à recevoir des moyens d'étanchéité coopérant avec les panneaux 18, 19, 20. Afin de simplifier la fabrication, les montants 14, 15 et les traverses 16, 17 du cadre 13 peuvent être réalisées à partir de profilés identiques.The frame 13 of the leaf 9 is made from hollow metal sections whose wall thickness is of the order of 1 mm, and which have, in cross section, the overall shape of a parallelepiped. The frame 13 is further provided with two longitudinal grooves 58 disposed on a face of the frame intended to be placed facing the fixed frame 2 of the door 1, for the insertion of sealing means. In addition, the frame 13 is provided with a lip 59 projecting from the face of the frame 13 intended to be placed facing the panels 18, 19, 20, towards the inside of the leaf 9. The lip 59 is shaped so that to define a longitudinal groove 60 adapted to receive sealing means cooperating with the panels 18, 19, 20. In order to simplify manufacture, the uprights 14, 15 and the crosspieces 16, 17 of the frame 13 can be made from identical profiles.

La structure et le positionnement des moyens assurant l'étanchéité latérale entre le cadre 13 du vantail 9 et l'encadrement 2 fixe de la porte 1 sont maintenant décrit en référence aux figures 3 et 4.The structure and the positioning of the means ensuring the lateral sealing between the frame 13 of the leaf 9 and the fixed frame 2 of the door 1 are now described with reference to the figures 3 and 4 .

Afin d'améliorer l'étanchéité, les moyens d'étanchéité sont de préférence des joints bi-matière 61, comportant :

  • une partie en matière rigide 61a dont une extrémité est destinée à être insérée dans une gorge 58 du cadre 13 du vantail 9 ou dans une gorge de l'encadrement 2 ;
  • une partie en matière souple 61b apte à venir en appui sur une surface de l'encadrement 2 ou du cadre 13, par exemple en regard desdites gorges, de façon à assurer l'étanchéité.
In order to improve the seal, the sealing means are preferably bi-material joints 61, comprising:
  • a part of rigid material 61a whose end is intended to be inserted into a groove 58 of the frame 13 of the leaf 9 or in a groove of the frame 2;
  • a portion of flexible material 61b adapted to bear on a surface of the frame 2 or the frame 13, for example facing said grooves, so as to seal.

Les joints 61 sont ainsi placés sur les montants 3, 4 de l'encadrement fixe ou sur les montants 14, 15 du cadre 13 du vantail 9.The seals 61 are thus placed on the uprights 3, 4 of the fixed frame or on the uprights 14, 15 of the frame 13 of the leaf 9.

Du fait du basculement du vantail 9 lors de son ouverture et de sa fermeture, les joints 61 fixés sur les montants 14, 15 du cadre 13 du vantail 9 sont disposés sur la partie inférieure desdits montants 14, 15, tandis que les joints 61 fixés sur les montants 3, 4 de l'encadrement 2 de la porte 1 sont disposés sur la partie supérieure desdits montants 3, 4. Les parties inférieure et supérieure des montants se rejoignent au niveau du point de basculement de la porte 1. Ces deux joints - placés sur l'encadrement 2 ou sur le cadre 13 - sont représentés superposés l'un à l'autre sur la figure 4.Due to the tilting of the leaf 9 during its opening and closing, the seals 61 fixed on the uprights 14, 15 of the frame 13 of the leaf 9 are arranged on the lower part of said uprights 14, 15, while the seals 61 fixed on the uprights 3, 4 of the frame 2 of the door 1 are arranged on the upper part of said uprights 3, 4. The lower and upper parts of the uprights meet at the point of tilting of the door 1. These two joints - placed on the frame 2 or on the frame 13 - are shown superimposed on each other on the figure 4 .

Ainsi, en position fermée du vantail 9, les joints 61 sont présents sur toute la hauteur du vantail 9.Thus, in the closed position of the leaf 9, the joints 61 are present over the entire height of the leaf 9.

Comme représenté sur la figure 3, la partie rigide 61a d'un joint 61 peut comporter deux protubérance en saillie aptes à être insérées chacune dans une gorge 58 du cadre 13, afin d'assurer une meilleure fixation du joint 61.As shown on the figure 3 , the rigid portion 61a of a seal 61 may comprise two projecting protuberances each capable of being inserted into a groove 58 of the frame 13, in order to ensure a better fixing of the seal 61.

On se réfère maintenant aux figures 10 et 11.We now refer to figures 10 and 11 .

Comme indiqué précédemment, le portillon 18 et les panneaux 19, 20 comprennent des caches 25 destinés à recouvrir leurs tranches supérieure et inférieure.As indicated previously, the gate 18 and the panels 19, 20 comprise covers 25 intended to cover their upper and lower slices.

Les caches 25 sont des profilés dont la section est sensiblement en forme de U et comprend une base 62 ainsi qu'une première et une deuxième ailes 63, 64. Les caches 25 sont disposés selon la direction D2, de telle sorte que les ailes 63, 64 viennent en appui contre les faces extérieures des parois intérieure 23 et extérieure 24 des panneaux 18, 19, 20, la base 62 du U étant sensiblement parallèle au plan (D2, D3).The covers 25 are sections whose section is substantially U-shaped and comprises a base 62 and first and second wings 63, 64. The covers 25 are arranged in the direction D2, so that the wings 63 , 64 bear against the outer faces of the inner 23 and outer 24 walls of the panels 18, 19, 20, the base 62 of the U being substantially parallel to the plane (D2, D3).

A cet effet, la distance entre les première et une deuxième ailes 63, 64 du U est supérieure à l'épaisseur d'un panneau 18, 19, 20.For this purpose, the distance between the first and second wings 63, 64 of the U is greater than the thickness of a panel 18, 19, 20.

La première aile 63 - destinée à être placée à l'extérieur E de la construction - peut présenter un repli 65 dirigé vers la base 62 du U, à l'intérieur dudit U. Le repli 65 est sensiblement en contact avec la première aile 63, renforçant ainsi cette dernière.The first wing 63 - intended to be placed outside the building E - may have a fold 65 directed towards the base 62 of the U, inside said U. The fold 65 is substantially in contact with the first flange 63 , reinforcing the latter.

La figure 10 illustre des caches 25 coopérant avec un panneau 19, 20 autre que le portillon 18.The figure 10 illustrates covers 25 cooperating with a panel 19, 20 other than the gate 18.

Dans ce cas, la deuxième aile 64 permet d'assurer la fixation du panneau 19, 20 sur le cadre 13 et présente :

  • une première partie 66, solidaire de la base 62 et s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à celle-ci, à distance de la paroi intérieure 23 du panneau 19, 20 ;
  • une deuxième partie 67, solidaire de la première partie 66, formant un décrochement et étant en contact avec la paroi intérieure 23 du panneau 19, 20, le long d'une surface sensiblement parallèle à la première partie 66 ;
  • une troisième partie 68 solidaire de la deuxième partie 67 et s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à cette dernière, en s'écartant de la paroi intérieure 23 ;
  • une quatrième partie 69, solidaire de la troisième partie 68 et sensiblement parallèle à cette dernière, l'extrémité de la quatrième partie 69 étant destinée à venir en appui sur la paroi intérieure 23.
In this case, the second wing 64 makes it possible to secure the panel 19, 20 to the frame 13 and has:
  • a first portion 66, integral with the base 62 and extending substantially perpendicularly thereto, away from the inner wall 23 of the panel 19, 20;
  • a second portion 67, integral with the first portion 66, forming a recess and being in contact with the inner wall 23 of the panel 19, 20, along a surface substantially parallel to the first portion 66;
  • a third portion 68 secured to the second portion 67 and extending substantially perpendicular thereto, away from the inner wall 23;
  • a fourth portion 69 integral with the third portion 68 and substantially parallel to the latter, the end of the fourth portion 69 being intended to bear against the inner wall 23.

La deuxième partie 67 peut recevoir une vis 70 destinée à fixer le cadre 13 du vantail au panneau 19, 20.The second part 67 can receive a screw 70 intended to fix the frame 13 of the leaf to the panel 19, 20.

Un jeu j est ménagé entre le cache 13 et le panneau 19, 20 de sorte à compenser l'épaisseur du joint 71 logé dans la gorge 60 du cadre 13 et prévu pour le portillon 18 (voir figure 11), de façon à assurer un alignement des panneaux 18, 19, 20.A clearance j is arranged between the cover 13 and the panel 19, 20 so as to compensate for the thickness of the seal 71 housed in the groove 60 of the frame 13 and provided for the door 18 (see figure 11 ), so as to ensure an alignment of the panels 18, 19, 20.

La figure 11 illustre des caches 25 coopérant avec le portillon 18, qui présentent une forme différentes des caches 25 utilisés pour les autres panneaux 19, 20.The figure 11 illustrates caches 25 cooperating with the gate 18, which have a different shape of the covers 25 used for the other panels 19, 20.

La deuxième aile 64 des caches 25 prévus pour coopérer avec le portillon 18 est sensiblement plane, sans décrochement, et est destinée à être en contact avec la face intérieure 23 du portillon 18. La largeur du U est alors à peine plus grande que l'épaisseur du portillon 18.The second wing 64 of the covers 25 provided to cooperate with the door 18 is substantially flat, without recess, and is intended to be in contact with the inner face 23 of the door 18. The width of the U is then slightly larger than the gate thickness 18.

La fonction des caches 25 est entre autres de protéger la mousse de polyuréthanne des panneaux 18, 19, 20 des intempéries (pluies, UV, etc.) au niveau des tranches supérieure et inférieure desdits panneaux 18, 19, 20.The function of the covers 25 is inter alia to protect the polyurethane foam panels 18, 19, 20 from the elements (rain, UV, etc.) at the upper and lower edges of said panels 18, 19, 20.

L'étanchéité entre les traverses 16, 17 du cadre 13 du vantail 9 d'une part et la traverse supérieure 5 et la barre de seuil 6 de l'encadrement fixe 2 d'autre part est également assurée par des joints bi matière 72.The sealing between the cross members 16, 17 of the frame 13 of the leaf 9 on the one hand and the upper cross member 5 and the threshold bar 6 of the fixed frame 2 on the other hand is also ensured by bi-material joints 72.

Un tel joint 72 comprend un pied 73, rigide, apte à être inséré dans une gorge 58 du cadre 13, ainsi qu'une partie souple 74, destinée à venir en appui sur la traverse supérieure 5 ou la barre de seuil 6. La partie souple 74 est elle-même composée d'une lèvre souple 74a et d'une lèvre pelable 74b.Such a seal 72 comprises a foot 73, rigid, capable of being inserted into a groove 58 of the frame 13, and a flexible portion 74, intended to bear on the upper crosspiece 5 or the threshold bar 6. The part flexible 74 is itself composed of a flexible lip 74a and a peelable lip 74b.

Toute la périphérie du vantail 9 est ainsi pourvue de moyens assurant l'étanchéité avec l'encadrement fixe 2.The entire periphery of the leaf 9 is thus provided with means ensuring sealing with the fixed frame 2.

Le portillon 18 comprend une serrure trois points 75, afin d'améliorer la sécurité de la porte 1. La serrure trois points 75 peut être fixée sur le montant 51.The gate 18 comprises a three-point lock 75, to improve the security of the door 1. The three-point lock 75 can be fixed on the upright 51.

En position de verrouillage, les pênes supérieur et inférieur de la serrure trois points 75 coopèrent avec la lèvre 59 des traverses supérieure 16 et inférieure 17 du cadre 13. Au niveau de la poignée 22, le pêne 52 s'engage dans la gâche 53. Selon une réalisation possible, les pênes supérieur et inférieur de la serrure trois points 75 peuvent également coopérer avec les gâches 53 supérieure et inférieure (voir figure 2).In the locking position, the upper and lower bolts of the three-point lock 75 cooperate with the lip 59 of the upper and lower crosspieces 16 of the frame 13. At the handle 22, the bolt 52 engages the keeper 53. According to a possible embodiment, the upper and lower bolts of the three point lock 75 can also cooperate with the latches 53 upper and lower (see figure 2 ).

Sur la figure 10 est également visible un élément 76 de la serrure un point 12 de la porte 1, en position d'engagement avec la barre de seuil 6 de l'encadrement fixe 2 de la porte 1, permettant le verrouillage du vantail 9 en position fermée.On the figure 10 is also visible an element 76 of the lock a point 12 of the door 1, in the engagement position with the threshold bar 6 of the fixed frame 2 of the door 1, allowing the locking of the leaf 9 in the closed position.

On décrit enfin le procédé d'assemblage du vantail 9.Finally, the method of assembly of the leaf 9 is described.

Dans un premier temps, on réalise chacun des panneaux 18, 19, 20 de la façon suivante :

  • on assemble les parois intérieure 23 et extérieure 24 du panneau 18, 19, 20 et les profilés d'assemblage 26, en insérant les bords latéraux des parois 23, 24 dans lesdits profilés d'assemblage 26 ;
  • on injecte le matériau isolant dans l'espace délimité par lesdites parois intérieure et extérieure 23, 24 du panneau 18, 19, 20. Des éléments d'obturation provisoires peuvent être prévus à cet effet ;
  • on fixe les caches 25 sur les tranches supérieure et inférieure du panneau 18,19, 20, par emboîtement à force ou vissage par exemple.
In a first step, each of the panels 18, 19, 20 is made as follows:
  • the inner and outer walls 24 of the panel 18, 19, 20 and the joining profiles 26 are assembled by inserting the side edges of the walls 23, 24 into said joining profiles 26;
  • the insulating material is injected into the space delimited by said inner and outer walls 23, 24 of the panel 18, 19, 20. Temporary sealing elements may be provided for this purpose;
  • the covers 25 are fixed on the upper and lower edges of the panel 18, 19, 20 by force-fitting or screwing, for example.

L'expansion du matériau isolant exerce une pression sur les parois 23, 24 et les profilés d'assemblage 26, de sorte que ces différents éléments sont parfaitement maintenus les uns par rapport aux autres.The expansion of the insulating material exerts a pressure on the walls 23, 24 and the connecting profiles 26, so that these different elements are perfectly maintained relative to each other.

Dans un deuxième temps, on place les panneaux 18, 19, 20 les uns à côté des autres et on assemble les panneaux 18, 19, 20 adjacents deux à deux le long de leurs bords latéraux, par emboîtement des profilés d'assemblage 26 adjacents fixés aux bords latéraux des panneaux 18,19, 20.In a second step, the panels 18, 19, 20 are placed next to one another and the adjacent panels 18, 19, 20 are assembled in pairs along their lateral edges, by fitting together the adjacent assembly profiles 26. attached to the side edges of the panels 18, 19, 20.

Dans un troisième temps, on fixe les panneaux 18, 19, 20 au cadre 13. Les différents éléments mécaniques (serrures, poignées, etc.) sont également mis en place.In a third step, the panels 18, 19, 20 are fixed to the frame 13. The various mechanical elements (locks, handles, etc.) are also put in place.

Enfin, le vantail est associé à l'encadrement fixe, via le dispositif de basculement.Finally, the leaf is associated with the fixed frame, via the tilting device.

L'invention fournit ainsi un vantail présentant une très bonne rigidité, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de prévoir des éléments de renfort autres que le cadre. En outre, le vantail peut être facilement assemblé et est peu coûteux. De plus, le vantail présente de très bonnes propriétés d'isolation et une étanchéité comparable à celle d'une porte sectionnelle grâce à l'utilisation de joints bi matière. Enfin, le vantail présente des caractéristiques esthétiques tout à fait satisfaisantes.The invention thus provides a leaf having a very good rigidity, without it being necessary to provide reinforcing elements other than the frame. In addition, the leaf can be easily assembled and is inexpensive. In addition, the leaf has very good insulation properties and a seal comparable to that of a sectional door thanks to the use of bi-material seals. Finally, the leaf has aesthetic characteristics quite satisfactory.
