Definitions

  • the present invention relates to tilting shutters for closing an opening such as those encountered in particular overhead over a bay of public transport car (bus or wagon).
  • Document FR-A 2 442 946 illustrates a shutter of this type, articulated by its lower edge to the lower edge of the frame of the opening which it closes.
  • An elastic return device cooperates with the flap to keep it in two stable positions bearing on fixed stops, which are extreme positions of maximum closing or opening, and in an intermediate position in which the flap is not in support on stops but is held elastically by the spring. In this intermediate position, the flap can vibrate given the elastic nature of one of its supports.
  • the present invention intends to provide an improvement to this type of device by giving the shutter a firm support in its third intermediate position.
  • the subject of the invention is a hinge and holding device in three stable positions for a tilting shutter of an opening of which one of the edges is equipped with a movable cross member engaged in the gutter of a fixed articulation cross member belonging to the frame of the opening, in which the movable cross member is held in abutment against a wing of this gutter along at least one longitudinal articulation surface by an elastic member disposed at the interior of the gutter between the movable cross member and the other edge of the gutter.
  • the elastic member is of variable orientation so that, in the first position of the flap, its effect is directed above the aforementioned articulation surface and in the second position of the flap its effect is directed to the below this surface
  • the movable cross member comprising a pair of substantially parallel articulation surfaces such that the aforementioned articulation surface is formed either by the upper surface of said pair when the flap is in its first position, or by the surface lower of said pair when the flap is in its second position, the other surface then being distant from the aforementioned wing, the two surfaces being simultaneously in contact with the wing in the third intermediate position of the flap, the effect of the the elastic member then being directed between the two surfaces.
  • the aforementioned surfaces are carried by external longitudinal cylindrical beads in one piece with the movable cross member, while the wing of the fixed cross member has grooves for receiving said beads.
  • the reference 1 represents the chassis of the opening 2 which can be closed or uncovered by the flap 2.
  • This chassis will for example be mounted in a transom above a bay 4, generally fixed, of a vehicle public transport (bus, railway car ).
  • the upper cross member 1a of the chassis 1 is fitted with a lip seal 5 against which the flap 3 is applied in its closed position.
  • the lower cross member 1b of the chassis is formed by a profile in the general shape of a gutter which has an outer wing 6 substantially parallel to the plane of the opening 2 and an inner wing 7 which constitutes a support for a secondary cross member 8 equipped at its end. free of an elastomer pad 8a, the role of which will be explained below.
  • the panel 3 is equipped, along its lower edge, with a movable cross member 9 by means of which it is coupled to the chassis 1 in the form of a pseudo joint.
  • the cross member 9 has two longitudinal beads 10 and 11 on its front face, parallel, the cylindrical surfaces 10a and 11a can cooperate and be received by two grooves 12 and 13 formed in correspondence on the inner face of the wing 6 of the profile 1b.
  • the plane 14 which contains the axes of the cylindrical beads forms an angle A with the plane of the flap 3.
  • the cross member 9 has, on its other side, a groove 15 in which is housed a branch 16a of a plane spring 16 in a pin or S whose other branch 16b is supported in the angle formed by the inner wing 7 with the bottom of the profile 1b, or more exactly in the angle formed by the cross member 8 with the bottom of this profile.
  • the elastic force exerted by the spring on the cross-member 9 is directed along the arrow F coplanar with the spring.
  • a handle 17 for operating the shutter 3 is coupled to the latter by means of a screw passing through the shutter in a known manner.
  • the cross member 9 is held in abutment against the wing 6 and its position is stable since the torque tending to rotate it around the joint 10,12 is thwarted by a torque in the opposite direction tending to rotate it around the articulation 11.13.
  • the dimensions of the cross-member 9 and the relative positions of the grooves 12, 13 and 15 will have led, during pivoting, to compression of the spring 16.
  • the force of the latter will be greater and of sufficient intensity to counteract with safety l effect of gravity on the flap 3 tending to rotate the latter around the complex joint 10-12, 11-13.
  • the inclination of the flap is in this position equal to the angle A.
  • One of the important advantages of the structure according to the invention lies in the fact that the production of a tilting flap with three stable positions does not require any additional part compared to existing devices with two positions.
  • the invention can therefore be implemented in all assemblies that can be equipped with known shutters. This arrangement has an interesting influence on the cost price of the structure.
  • the invention finds an interesting application in the field of construction of cars for public transport vehicles.
