Abstract
Description
Fenêtre marine ou hublot et son procédé de fabrication. Marine window or porthole and its manufacturing process.
La présente invention concerne un hublot ou fenêtre marine destinée à équiper les bateaux de forts tonnages tels que les navires de transport de passagers, les cargos de transport de marchandises, les bâtiments militaires ou autres types de bateaux. Elle est aussi applicable à la fabrication des hublots affectés à l'équipement de bassins de grandes dimensions tels que piscines, stades nautiques, grands aquariums, bassins d'aquaculture ou autres.The present invention relates to a porthole or marine window intended to equip boats with large tonnages such as passenger ships, cargo ships, military buildings or other types of boats. It is also applicable to the manufacture of portholes used to equip large pools such as swimming pools, nautical stadiums, large aquariums, aquaculture tanks or others.
L'invention vise également le procédé de fabrication de tels hublots ou fenêtres marines et, plus particulièrement, un procédé de tenue mécanique du vitrage de ces derniers.The invention also relates to the method of manufacturing such portholes or marine windows and, more particularly, a method of mechanically holding the glazing of the latter.
Plus précisément, l'invention se rattache aux hublots ou fenêtres marines du genre comprenant :More specifically, the invention relates to portholes or marine windows of the kind comprising:
- un dormant 1 , le plus souvent réalisé en acier et constitué par un profilé laminé ou étiré à chaud, ce dormant étant généralement soudé à la coque du bateau ou autre structure porteuse ;- a frame 1, most often made of steel and consisting of a hot-rolled or drawn profile, this frame being generally welded to the hull of the boat or other supporting structure;
- une vitre ou vitrage 2, constituée par un verre spécial d'épaisseur variable suivant la destination du -hublot, cette vitre étant entourée par des joints étanches 3, et ;- a window or glazing 2, constituted by a special glass of variable thickness depending on the destination of the window, this window being surrounded by tight seals 3, and;
- une pièce de retenue 4 appelée "pince-glace", généralement réalisée en laiton ou en inox, ce pince-glace étant fixé, selon les procédés habituellement mis en œuvre actuellement, au moyen de vis 5, sur la face avant du dormant, pour maintenir le vitrage en position.a retaining piece 4 called "window clamp", generally made of brass or stainless steel, this window clamp being fixed, according to the methods usually implemented at present, by means of screws 5, on the front face of the frame, to keep the glass in position.
Suivant les constructions de ce genre, le pince-glace écrase les joints d'étanchéité placés de part et d'autre du pourtour du vitrage, contre une battue ou épaulement appelée "repos de glace" et formée d'une seule pièce avec le dormant. La vissene est répartie sur le pourtour du pince-glace avec un espacement de l'ordre de 75 mm à 100 mm, suivant les normes en vigueur La tenue mécanique est donc ponctuelle et les pressions dynamiques encaissées par le vitrage (par exemple sous l'effet du vent et des paquets d'eau de mer dans l'application la plus courante à l'équipement des bateaux) sont répercutées aux vis par l'intermédiaire du pmce-glace, ce qui est la cause d'un défaut de résistanceAccording to constructions of this kind, the ice-breaker crushes the gaskets placed on either side of the periphery of the glazing, against a beat or shoulder called "ice rest" and formed in one piece with the frame . The screw is distributed around the circumference of the ice-cream pliers with a spacing of around 75 mm to 100 mm, according to the standards in force. The mechanical strength is therefore punctual and the dynamic pressures absorbed by the glazing (for example under the effect of wind and seawater packets in the most common application to boat equipment) are passed on to the screws through the pmce-glace, which is the cause of a resistance defect
Actuellement, le perçage-fraisage du pmce-glace et le perçage-taraudage du dormant sont réalisés séparément, après des opérations de pré-pointage Plus précisément, le perçage-fraisage et le perçage-taraudage du pmce-glace et du dormant, respectivement, sont réalisés à partir d'un pmce-glace premier de série sur lequel ont été tracés et percés tous les trous , il sert ensuite, d'une part, au pré-pointage des dormants qui après cela sont pointés, percés et envoyés au traitement peinture avant d'être taraudés, et d'autre part, au pointage des pmces- glace qui sont ensuite percés et fraisésCurrently, the drilling-milling of the glass pce and the drilling-tapping of the frame are carried out separately, after pre-punching operations. More precisely, the drilling-milling and the drilling-tapping of the glass pce and of the frame, respectively, are made from a standard pmce-ice on which all the holes have been traced and drilled, it is then used, on the one hand, for the pre-pointing of the frames which after that are pointed, drilled and sent to treatment paint before being tapped, and on the other hand, the pointing of the ice cubes which are then drilled and milled
Il s'agit d'une succession d'opérations longues, très minutieuses et difficiles à exécuter si l'on considère le volume et la lourdeur de certaines pièces En outre, des erreurs de pointage, même minimes, peuvent conduire à la mise au rebut des piècesIt is a succession of long operations, very meticulous and difficult to execute if we consider the volume and the heaviness of certain parts. In addition, pointing errors, even minor, can lead to scrapping. pieces
II est possible de réaliser les opérations de perçage, taraudage, fraisage, au moyen d'unités de perçage-taraudage à commande numérique programmable, par exemple au moyen d'une procédure suivant laquelle le perçage et le taraudage du pince-glace et du dormant sont exécutés simultanément après les avoir assemblés par bndage , il faut ensuite désolidariser le pmce-glace du dormant pour le percer au diamètre nécessaire au passage des vis et le fraiser pour l'encastrement des têtes de visIt is possible to carry out the drilling, tapping, milling operations, by means of drilling-tapping units with programmable digital control, for example by means of a procedure according to which the drilling and tapping of the ice-cream pliers and of the frame are executed simultaneously after having assembled them by bndage, it is then necessary to separate the pmce-ice from the frame to drill it to the diameter necessary for the passage of the screws and to mill it for the embedding of the screw heads
Cette méthode de préparation du pmce-glace et du dormant n'exclut donc pas toute intervention manuelle, tout en nécessitant des machines de fabrication coûteuses ne pouvant être pilotées que par des exécutants très qualifiésThis method of preparing the ice-cream and the frame therefore does not exclude any manual intervention, while requiring expensive manufacturing machines which can only be controlled by very qualified operators.
Quel que soit le procédé de fabrication actuellement mis en œuvre (semi- automatisé ou entièrement manuel), les coûts de production, les frais de manutention et les dépenses d'approvisionnement en matières premières, sont très importantsWhatever the manufacturing process currently implemented (semi-automated or fully manual), production costs, handling and raw material supply costs are very important
On a proposé, dans le document US-1 763 489 A, une fenêtre métallique à guillotine comportant un cadre dans lequel est positionné un vitrage maintenu en position par un jeu de quatre barres de calage (looking bars) qui sont simplement engagées dans une rainure ménagée dans le cadre de la fenêtre II en résulte, à l'évidence, une mauvaise tenue mécanique des éléments du pince-glace constitué par ces barres de calage et, par conséquent, du vitrage lui-même, ce qui pourrait avoir des effets désastreux, y compris dans l'application aux voitures de chemin de fer qui est la seule mentionnée dans le document susmentionné On observe d'ailleurs que ce dispositif est pratiquement inapplicable aux hublots ou fenêtres marines qui présentent des angles et des assemblages d'angles arrondisThere has been proposed, in document US-1 763 489 A, a sash metal window comprising a frame in which is positioned a glazing maintained in position by a set of four wedging bars (looking bars) which are simply engaged in a groove formed in the context of window II obviously results in poor mechanical strength of the elements of the ice-cream pliers constituted by these setting bars and, consequently, of the glazing itself, which could have disastrous effects. , including in the application to railroad cars which is the only one mentioned in the aforementioned document We also observe that this device is practically inapplicable to portholes or marine windows which have angles and assemblies of rounded angles
On a également proposé, dans le document GB-1 361 285A, une fenêtre marine comportant un châssis dans lequel est logé un vitrage et un pmce-glace engagé dans une rainure ménagée dans ledit châssis, le blocage du vitrage étant assuré par des cales compressibles engagées à force entre ce dernier et ledit pince-glaceIt has also been proposed, in document GB-1 361 285A, a marine window comprising a frame in which is housed a glazing and an ice-glass pmce engaged in a groove made in said chassis, the glazing being blocked by compressible wedges forcibly engaged between the latter and said ice tongs
La tenue mécanique d'un tel dispositif est très médiocre, les cales compressibles pouvant se dégager facilement (par exemple à partir de la partie haute du châssis) sous l'effet des vibrations auxquelles est soumise la structure des navires ou par suite de vieillissement des matériaux compressibles, avec les conséquences désastreuses que l'on imagineThe mechanical strength of such a device is very poor, the compressible wedges being able to be released easily (for example from the upper part of the chassis) under the effect of the vibrations to which the structure of the ships is subjected or as a result of aging of the compressible materials, with the disastrous consequences that we imagine
Les inconvénients susmentionnés des dispositifs décrits dans les documents US 1 763 489A et GB 1 361 285A expliquent pourquoi ces dispositifs ne sont toujours pas mis en œuvre dans l'équipement des navires dont les hublots sont généralement réalisés selon la technique traditionnelle précédemment exposéeThe aforementioned drawbacks of the devices described in documents US 1 763 489A and GB 1 361 285A explain why these devices are still not used in the equipment of ships whose portholes are generally made according to the traditional technique previously exposed
L'invention se propose donc de remédier aux inconvénients soulignés ci- dessus des fenêtres décrites dans les documents US-1 763 489A et GB-1 361 285A, ainsi qu'aux inconvénients des hublots exécutés selon la technique traditionnelleThe invention therefore proposes to remedy the drawbacks outlined above of the windows described in documents US-1,763,489A and GB-1 361 285A, as well as the disadvantages of portholes executed according to the traditional technique

Grâce à cette disposition, les interventions usuelles ci-après ne sont plus nécessairesThanks to this arrangement, the usual interventions below are no longer necessary
- réalisation d'un pince-glace premier de série ,- production of a first ice-cream maker as standard,
- pré-pointage du pmce-glace et du dormant ,- pre-pointing of the ice-glass and the frame,
- pointage, perçage et fraisage du pince-glace ,- pointing, drilling and milling the ice tongs,
- pointage, perçage et taraudage du dormant, dans lequel on doit seulement exécuter un petit nombre de taraudages (par exemple trois ou quatre) pour lesquels un positionnement extrêmement rigoureux n'est pas indispensable ,- pointing, drilling and tapping the frame, in which only a small number of tappings (for example three or four) must be executed, for which extremely rigorous positioning is not essential,
- polissage du pmce-glace On évite également toutes les manutentions relatives aux opérations ci- dessus.- polishing of pmce-glace All handling relating to the above operations is also avoided.
D'autre part, la tenue mécanique se trouve grandement améliorée en raison du fait que les pressions dynamiques encaissées par le vitrage ne sont pas répercutées ponctuellement sur des vis, mais sur la totalité de la partie du pince-glace qui émerge de la rainure dans laquelle ce dernier est solidement encastré.On the other hand, the mechanical strength is greatly improved due to the fact that the dynamic pressures absorbed by the glazing are not reflected punctually on screws, but on the whole of the part of the ice-cream pliers which emerges from the groove in which the latter is firmly embedded.
L'installation des hublots est grandement facilitée et le remplacement éventuel d'un vitrage peut s'effectuer aisément et rapidement, avec un minimum d'outils.The installation of portholes is greatly facilitated and the possible replacement of glazing can be carried out easily and quickly, with a minimum of tools.
Les hublots exécutés selon les techniques courantes présentent encore un autre inconvénient résultant de la réalisation monobloc du dormant et du repos de glace conduisant à exécuter un élément de base dont la fabrication et le cintrage nécessitent des outillages, filières ou trains de laminoir, outillages de cintrage très puissants, encombrants et coûteux ; en outre, le stockage de cet élément de base est rendu difficile du fait de sa forme irrégulière.Portholes executed according to current techniques have yet another drawback resulting from the one-piece construction of the frame and the rest of the glass, leading to the execution of a basic element, the production and bending of which require tools, dies or rolling mill trains, bending tools. very powerful, bulky and expensive; in addition, the storage of this basic element is made difficult because of its irregular shape.
Un autre objet de l'invention est de remédier à cet inconvénient.Another object of the invention is to remedy this drawback.
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique de l'invention, cet objectif est atteint grâce à un procédé ' de fabrication selon lequel on utilise, pour la réalisation des dormants, des plats tels que plats en acier laminé, sur la surface intérieure desquels on rapporte fixement le repos de glace, par tout procédé convenable.According to another characteristic of the invention, this object is achieved by a method 'of manufacture that is used for the realization of dormant, dishes such as laminated steel plates on the inner surface of which is fixedly relates the ice rest, by any suitable process.
Ce procédé permet de réaliser des dormants de hublots, à partir d'éléments de formes simples, et, par conséquent, plus faciles et plus économiques à réaliser, et, de plus, aisément stockables. On peut ainsi diminuer les coûts d'achat des matières premières et les frais d'outillage.This method makes it possible to produce window frames, from elements of simple shape, and therefore easier and more economical to produce, and, moreover, easily storable. This can reduce the purchase costs of raw materials and tooling costs.
Ce mode d'exécution, comme celui résultant de la mise en œuvre des procédés de fabrication classiques, n'élimine pas le problème important de la corrosion dans le temps du repos de glace, lorsque celui-ci n'est pas réalisé en acier inox ou en aluminium.This embodiment, like that resulting from the implementation of conventional manufacturing processes, does not eliminate the important problem of corrosion over time of the ice rest, when it is not made of stainless steel or aluminum.
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique de l'invention, on prévoit de solutionner ce problème grâce à un procédé suivant lequel le vitrage est fixé par l'intermédiaire d'un joint collé, d'une part, à la surface périphérique et à la surface de bordure interne dudit vitrage et, d'autre part, contre les surfaces des parties du pince-glace situées hors de l'entaille dans laquelle celles-ci sont encastrées et, contre la surface intérieure du dormant, et on supprime le repos de glace auquel on peut substituer quelques butées anti-déventement disposées sur le côté postérieur dudit vitrage et positionnées ponctuellement, par exemple sur les côtés et en partie haute du hublot.According to another characteristic arrangement of the invention, it is intended to solve this problem by a method according to which the glazing is fixed by means of a glued joint, on the one hand, to the peripheral surface and to the surface of internal border of said glazing and, on the other hand, against the surfaces of the parts of the window-clamp located outside the notch in which these are embedded and, against the internal surface of the frame, and the ice rest is removed at which one can substitute some anti-venting stops arranged on the posterior side of said glazing and positioned punctually, for example on the sides and in the upper part of the window.
Grâce à cette disposition, la tenue mécanique du vitrage est toujours assurée aussi bien dans le sens de la pression que dans le sens opposé à la pression (déventement) et on élimine le problème de la corrosion du repos de glace.Thanks to this arrangement, the mechanical strength of the glazing is always ensured both in the direction of the pressure as in the direction opposite to the pressure (venting) and the problem of corrosion of the ice rest is eliminated.
L'ensemble des dispositions caractéristiques exposées précédemment permet d'obtenir un gain de productivité, des économies d'achats, une diminution des stocks et une réduction des délais de livraison très importants.All of the characteristic provisions set out above make it possible to obtain a gain in productivity, savings in purchases, a reduction in stocks and a reduction in very long delivery times.

On se reporte auxdits dessins pour décrire des exemples avantageux de réalisation des hublots et de mise en œuvre des procédés de fabrication de ceux- ci, selon l'invention.Figure 19 is a sectional view along line 19-19 of Figure 18. Reference is made to said drawings to describe advantageous examples of embodiment of the portholes and implementation of the methods for manufacturing them, according to the invention.
Sur ces dessins, les composants des différents hublots illustrés remplissant les mêmes fonctions, sont désignés par les mêmes références.In these drawings, the components of the various portholes illustrated fulfilling the same functions are designated by the same references.
Ainsi, de manière classique, ces différents hublots ou fenêtres marines comprennent un dormant 1 délimitant une ouverture ou fenêtre, une vitre ou vitrage 2 logé dans le dormant et fermant ladite fenêtre, un ou plusieurs joints d'étanchéité 3, et un pince-glace 4 fixé sur le dormant 1 , côté intérieur, en regard de la bordure du vitrage.Thus, conventionally, these various portholes or marine windows comprise a frame 1 delimiting an opening or window, a window pane 2 glazed housed in the frame and closing said window, one or more seals 3, and an ice-cream pliers 4 fixed on the frame 1, interior side, facing the edge of the glazing.
En outre, à l'exception du mode d'exécution illustré à la figure 8, les hublots comportent encore un repos de glace 6.In addition, with the exception of the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 8, the portholes still include an ice rest 6.
Pour faciliter la compréhension de l'exposé qui suit, concernant la description de l'objet proprement dit de l'invention, on précise que :To facilitate understanding of the description which follows, concerning the description of the actual object of the invention, it is specified that:
- le mot "avant" qualifie une surface orientée du côté intérieur du hublot en considérant la position que ce dernier est appelé à occuper après son installation sur une paroi porteuse ;- The word "before" describes a surface oriented on the inside of the window by considering the position that the latter is called upon to occupy after its installation on a load-bearing wall;
- le mot "intérieure" désigne une surface orientée en direction de l'axe ou centre du hublot ;- the word "interior" designates a surface oriented towards the axis or center of the window;
- le mot "externe" qualifie une surface ou une zone périphérique du hublot ou de l'une de ses parties constitutives ;- the word "external" qualifies a surface or a peripheral zone of the window or of one of its constituent parts;
- le mot "postérieure" désigne une surface orientée du côté extérieur du hublot en considérant la position que celui-ci est appelé à occuper après son montage sur une paroi porteuse.- The word "posterior" designates a surface oriented on the outside of the window by considering the position that it is called upon to occupy after it has been mounted on a load-bearing wall.
Suivant une première disposition caractéristique de l'invention, le pince- glace 4 du hublot ou fenêtre marine, est constitué de plusieurs éléments ou parties 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, ... Ces éléments peuvent être formés par des bandes métalliques plates dont la forme est fonction de celle du hublot. Ainsi le pince- glace du hublot rectangulaire représenté à la figure 4 est constitué de quatre éléments 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d formés, chacun, de deux parties rectilignes orientées à 90° et raccordées par une portion courbe, tandis que le pmce-glace du hublot circulaire montré à la figure 5 est composé de trois éléments 4a, 4b, 4c en forme d'arcs de cercleAccording to a first characteristic arrangement of the invention, the window-clamp 4 of the porthole or marine window, is made up of several elements or parts 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, ... These elements can be formed by flat metal bands, of which the shape depends on that of the window. So the clamp glass of the rectangular window shown in Figure 4 consists of four elements 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d each formed of two straight parts oriented at 90 ° and connected by a curved portion, while the pmce-glass of the circular window shown in Figure 5 is composed of three elements 4a, 4b, 4c in the form of arcs of a circle
Les éléments 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d du pmce-glace sont encastrés successivement, par l'intermédiaire de leur bordure externe ou bordure périphérique 4', dans une rainure 7 de section rectangulaire ménagée dans la surface intérieure 1a du dormant 1 (figure 6)The elements 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d of the pmce-glace are successively embedded, by means of their outer edge or peripheral edge 4 ′, in a groove 7 of rectangular section formed in the inner surface 1a of the frame 1 (FIG. 6 )
Les éléments constituant le pince-glace 4 peuvent être réalisés en acier inoxydable et être obtenus par découpage, au laser, de tôles polies Ils sont maintenus dans la rainure 7 par un moyen de fixation ou de blocageThe elements constituting the ice-cream pliers 4 can be made of stainless steel and can be obtained by laser cutting of polished sheets. They are held in the groove 7 by a fixing or blocking means.
De façon avantageuse, les éléments 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, sont engagés les uns à la suite des autres, avec un faible intervalle, ou placés bout à bout, dans la rainure 7, et ils sont maintenus en place par des organes de blocage qui, selon les exemples représentés, sont constitués par des brides ou plaquettes de maintien 8 fixées contre la surface intérieure de la bordure avant du dormant, par l'intermédiaire de vis 9 Selon le mode d'exécution illustré aux figures 4 à 14, les brides de maintien 8 comportent un bec ou languette de retenue 8a orientée en direction de la partie postérieure du hublot et placée en appui contre le bord interne des éléments 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, De préférence, les brides de maintien 8 sont disposées dans les zones Z de rencontre des extrémités des différents éléments aboutés ou faiblement espacés constituant le p ce-glace (figure 7) Elles présentent une partie verticale destinée à s'appliquer contre la face avant du pmce-glace 4 et une semelle de fixation 8b ayant une orientation inverse par rapport à celle dudit bec ou languette 8a et permettant leur fixation sur la surface intérieure du dormant , elles pourraient aussi être conformées pour pouvoir être fixées contre la surface avant dudit dormantAdvantageously, the elements 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, are engaged one after the other, with a small gap, or placed end to end, in the groove 7, and they are held in place by organs of blocking which, according to the examples shown, consist of flanges or retaining plates 8 fixed against the inner surface of the front edge of the frame, by means of screws 9 According to the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 4 to 14, the retaining flanges 8 comprise a spout or retaining tab 8a oriented in the direction of the rear part of the window and placed in abutment against the internal edge of the elements 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, Preferably, the retaining flanges 8 are arranged in the zones Z where the ends of the different butted or narrowly spaced elements constituting the ice-cream pane meet (FIG. 7) They have a vertical part intended to be applied against the front face of the ice-cream pmce 4 and a fixing melle 8b having an opposite orientation relative to that of said spout or tongue 8a and allowing their fixing on the inner surface of the frame, they could also be shaped to be able to be fixed against the front surface of said frame
Comme le montre par exemple, la figure 6, on comprend que le vitrage se trouve solidement maintenu, par l'intermédiaire de sa bordure périphérique 2a, entre le repos de glace 6 et le p ce-glace 4 solidement calé dans la rainure 7 par la face verticale des brides de maintien et la languette de retenue 8a de celles-ci. Des joints d'étanchéité 3, par exemple exécutés en silicone ou en polyuréthanne, sont disposés entre, d'une part, le vitrage 2 et, d'autre part, les surfaces du pince- glace, du dormant et du repos de glace disposées en regard de celles dudit vitrage.As shown for example in FIG. 6, it can be understood that the glazing is securely held, by means of its peripheral edge 2a, between the glass rest 6 and the glass p 4 securely wedged in the groove 7 by the vertical face of the retaining flanges and the retaining tab 8a thereof. Seals 3, for example made of silicone or polyurethane, are arranged between, on the one hand, the glazing 2 and, on the other hand, the surfaces of the ice tongs, the frame and the ice rest arranged opposite those of said glazing.
Les figures 15 à 19 illustrent un autre mode d'exécution des plaquettes de maintien 8 et le calage des éléments du pince-glace au moyen de telles plaquettes.FIGS. 15 to 19 illustrate another embodiment of the holding plates 8 and the setting of the elements of the ice-cream pliers by means of such plates.
Selon ce mode d'exécution, les plaquettes 8 sont planes et sont pourvues d'un trou 8c permettant de les fixer, au moyen de vis 9 sur la face intérieure du dormant 1 ; elles présentent une languette de retenue 8a dont la longueur I est inférieure à la largeur L de leur partie restante (figure 16), de sorte que cette dernière présente un épaulement 8d de chaque côté de ladite languette. D'autre part, les extrémités des éléments de pince-glace sont pourvues d'encoches 21 dont la largeur est au moins égale à l'épaisseur des plaquettes de maintien.According to this embodiment, the plates 8 are flat and are provided with a hole 8c making it possible to fix them, by means of screws 9 on the inner face of the frame 1; they have a retaining tab 8a whose length I is less than the width L of their remaining part (FIG. 16), so that the latter has a shoulder 8d on each side of said tab. On the other hand, the ends of the window-clamp members are provided with notches 21 whose width is at least equal to the thickness of the holding plates.
Comme indiqué précédemment, les éléments du pince-glace 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, ... , sont engagés les uns à la suite des autres, avec un intervalle réduit, ou placés bout à bout, dans la rainure 7. Les plaquettes de maintien 8 sont plaquées contre la face intérieure du dormant 1 et leur languette de retenue 8a est engagée dans les encoches adjacentes 21 , de deux éléments voisins, après quoi elles sont fixées, au moyen d'une vis 9 sur ledit dormant.As indicated above, the elements of the ice-cream pliers 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, ..., are engaged one after the other, with a reduced interval, or placed end to end, in the groove 7. The plates holding 8 are pressed against the inner face of the frame 1 and their retaining tab 8a is engaged in the adjacent notches 21, of two neighboring elements, after which they are fixed, by means of a screw 9 on said frame.
On comprend que les éléments du pince-glace 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, ... , sont fermement maintenus dans la rainure, d'une part, par l'action des épaulements 8d prenant appui contre la face avant desdits éléments et, d'autre part, par l'action des languettes de retenue 8a engagées dans les encoches 21.It is understood that the elements of the ice-cream pliers 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, ..., are firmly held in the groove, on the one hand, by the action of the shoulders 8d bearing against the front face of said elements and, on the other hand, by the action of the retaining tabs 8a engaged in the notches 21.
Lorsque les éléments du pince-glace 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, ... , ne sont pas effectivement disposés bout à bout, une petite plaque de finition 22 peut être fixée par collage sur la face avant des extrémités voisines desdits éléments, afin de masquer l'intervalle laissé entre lesdites extrémités. Selon une autre disposition caractéristique, le dormant 1 du hublot est constitué à partir d'un plat pourvu d'au moins une rainure 7 et plié pour obtenir un châssis tubulaire ayant la forme souhaitée pour recevoir le vitrage 2, et les éléments constituant le pmce-glace 4 sont encastrés dans la rainure de ce châssisWhen the elements of the ice-cream pliers 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, ..., are not actually arranged end to end, a small finishing plate 22 can be fixed by gluing on the front face of the ends adjacent to said elements, in order to mask the interval left between said ends. According to another characteristic arrangement, the frame 1 of the window is formed from a flat provided with at least one groove 7 and folded to obtain a tubular frame having the desired shape to receive the glazing 2, and the elements constituting the pmce -windows 4 are embedded in the groove of this chassis
L'invention vise également un procédé de fabrication du hublot ou fenêtre marine suivant lequel on utilise, pour la réalisation du dormant 1 , un plat dans l'une des faces duquel on exécute au moins une rainure longitudinale 7, ce plat ramure étant convenablement courbé de manière à obtenir un corps tubulaire présentant la section désirée (généralement circulaire ou rectangulaire), et de façon que ladite rainure se trouve à l'intérieur de ce corps tubulaire, on encastre ensuite, dans cette dernière, après mise en place du vitrage 2 dans ledit dormant, les éléments 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, destinés à constituer le pmce-glace, ces éléments étant maintenus en place par des moyens de blocage avantageusement constitués par les brides ou plaquettes de maintien précédemment décritesThe invention also relates to a method of manufacturing the porthole or marine window according to which a flat is used in the production of the frame 1 in one of the faces of which at least one longitudinal groove 7 is executed, this antler dish being suitably curved so as to obtain a tubular body having the desired section (generally circular or rectangular), and so that said groove is inside this tubular body, it is then fitted into the latter, after installation of the glazing 2 in said frame, the elements 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, intended to constitute the ice-cream, these elements being held in place by locking means advantageously constituted by the flanges or retaining plates previously described
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique intéressante de l'invention, le dormant 1 des hublots est constitué par un plat tel qu'un plat d'acier laminé, sur la surface intérieure duquel le repos de glace est rapporté par un moyen ou un procédé de fixation assurant leur solidaπsation ou assemblage rigideAccording to another advantageous characteristic arrangement of the invention, the frame 1 of the portholes consists of a plate such as a rolled steel plate, on the inner surface of which the ice rest is added by a fixing means or method ensuring their solidaπsation or rigid assembly
Selon la figure 6, le repos de glace 6 est constitué par une barre métallique de section carrée, fixée par soudure 10 sur la surface intérieure du plat constituant le dormant 1 Dans ce cas, le repos de glace est, par exemple, exécuté en acier, en acier inoxydable ou en aluminium, et il peut être réalisé en un seul élémentAccording to Figure 6, the ice rest 6 is constituted by a metal bar of square section, fixed by welding 10 on the inner surface of the dish constituting the frame 1 In this case, the ice rest is, for example, made of steel , made of stainless steel or aluminum, and can be made in one piece
Suivant la figure 10, le repos de glace 6 est constitué par une bande métallique encastrée par l'intermédiaire de sa bordure extérieure 6a, dans une deuxième rainure 11 ménagée dans la surface intérieure du plat replié constituant le dormant 1 II est maintenu en place par soudure 11a sur le dormant 1 II peut être exécuté en acier inoxydable Selon la figure 11 , le repos de glace 6 est également constitué par un plat ou bande métallique plate encastré, par l'intermédiaire de sa bordure externe 6a, dans une rainure 11 ménagée dans la surface intérieure du dormant 1 , mais, selon ce mode de fixation, le repos de glace 6 est maintenu en place dans la rainure 11 du dormant, par l'intermédiaire de brides 12. Ces brides comportent, par exemple, une semelle 12a par l'intermédiaire de laquelle elles sont fixées, au moyen de vis 13, sur la surface intérieure 1a du dormant 1 , ces brides présentant un bec de retenue 12b placé en appui sur le bord interne du repos de glace 6.According to FIG. 10, the ice rest 6 is constituted by a metal strip embedded via its outer edge 6a, in a second groove 11 formed in the interior surface of the folded plate constituting the frame 1 It is held in place by weld 11a on the frame 1 II can be executed in stainless steel According to Figure 11, the ice rest 6 is also constituted by a flat or flat metal strip embedded, through its outer edge 6a, in a groove 11 formed in the inner surface of the frame 1, but, according to this mode fixing, the ice rest 6 is held in place in the groove 11 of the frame, by means of flanges 12. These flanges comprise, for example, a sole 12a by means of which they are fixed, by means of screw 13, on the inner surface 1a of the frame 1, these flanges having a retaining spout 12b placed in abutment on the internal edge of the ice rest 6.
Le repos de glace 6 réalisé selon les figures 10 et 11 , est constitué de plusieurs éléments ou parties disposés les uns à la suite des autres devant la bordure périphérique postérieure du vitrage 2 et, de préférence, les brides de maintien 12 sont placées dans les zones de rencontre des extrémités des différents éléments aboutés ou très légèrement espacés constituant le repos de glace.The ice rest 6 produced according to FIGS. 10 and 11, consists of several elements or parts arranged one after the other in front of the rear peripheral edge of the glazing 2 and, preferably, the retaining flanges 12 are placed in the meeting areas of the ends of the various butted or very slightly spaced elements constituting the ice rest.
On pourrait, bien entendu, utiliser des plaquettes de maintien 8 du genre de celle qui est montrée à la figure 15, et conformer les extrémités des éléments du repos de glace de la manière illustrée à la figure 16 pour les éléments du pince- glace.One could, of course, use holding plates 8 of the kind shown in FIG. 15, and shape the ends of the elements of the ice rest as illustrated in FIG. 16 for the elements of the ice-cream pliers.
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique du procédé de l'invention, on utilise, pour la réalisation du dormant 1 , un plat dans l'une des faces duquel on exécute une première rainure 7 destinée à la réception des éléments constituant le pince-glace et une deuxième rainure 1 1 parallèle à la précédente et distante de celle-ci, le plat rainure étant ensuite plié de manière à obtenir un corps tubulaire présentant la section désirée et de sorte que cette deuxième rainure 11 se trouve à l'intérieur de ce corps tubulaire, on encastre ensuite, dans cette dernière, une pluralité d'éléments destinés à constituer le repos de glace 6, ces éléments étant maintenus en place par un moyen de blocage, par exemple par soudure 1 1a ou par des organes de blocage tels que ceux décrits précédemment.According to another characteristic arrangement of the method of the invention, a flat is used in the production of the frame 1 in one of the faces of which a first groove 7 is made intended for the reception of the elements constituting the ice-cream pliers and a second groove 11 parallel to the previous one and distant from it, the flat groove then being folded so as to obtain a tubular body having the desired section and so that this second groove 11 is located inside this tubular body , is then embedded in the latter, a plurality of elements intended to constitute the ice rest 6, these elements being held in place by a locking means, for example by welding 11a or by locking members such as those described previously.
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique de l'invention, on prévoit de fixer le vitrage 2 au moyen d'un joint 14 collé, d'une part, sur la surface périphérique et sur la surface de bordure interne dudit vitrage, et d'autre part, sur la surface postérieure des éléments du pince-glace située hors de la rainure dans laquelle ceux-ci sont partiellement encastrés (figure 9) et sur la surface intérieure 1 a du dormant 1. On peut utiliser, dans ce but, des colles à base de silicone, ou à base de polyuréthanne ou toutes autres colles adéquates.According to another characteristic arrangement of the invention, provision is made to fix the glazing 2 by means of a seal 14 glued, on the one hand, to the peripheral surface and on the internal border surface of said glazing, and on the other hand, on the rear surface of the elements of the ice-cream pliers situated outside the groove in which these are partially embedded (FIG. 9) and on the internal surface 1a of the dormant 1. For this purpose, silicone-based glues, or polyurethane-based glues or any other suitable glues can be used.
Selon ce mode de réalisation, on prévoit de fixer, ponctuellement, par collage ou autrement, quelques butées anti-déventement 15, placées fixement sur le côté extérieur du vitrage 2. De telles butées peuvent, par exemple, être positionnées sur les côtés et en partie haute du vitrage et rigidement fixées par tout procédé convenable sur la surface intérieure 1 a du dormant 1.According to this embodiment, provision is made to fix, punctually, by gluing or otherwise, a few anti-venting stops 15, fixedly placed on the outside of the glazing 2. Such stops can, for example, be positioned on the sides and in upper part of the glazing and rigidly fixed by any suitable method on the inner surface 1a of the frame 1.
Les hublots ou fenêtres marines comportent parfois une collerette périphérique 16 disposée autour du dormant 1 et destinée à l'adaptation de la paroi intérieure (non porteuse) du navire. Cette collerette périphérique extérieure est fixée par soudure par point, en quinconce ou par soudure continue périphérique. Cela présente l'inconvénient de générer des contraintes et des déformations dues à la soudure, et de nécessiter des opérations ultérieures de redressage.Portholes or marine windows sometimes include a peripheral flange 16 disposed around the frame 1 and intended for the adaptation of the interior (non-load-bearing) wall of the ship. This outer peripheral flange is fixed by spot welding, staggered or by continuous peripheral welding. This has the drawback of generating stresses and deformations due to welding, and of requiring subsequent straightening operations.
Pour supprimer cet inconvénient, on prévoit un mode d'exécution du hublot suivant lequel la collerette 16 est constituée de plusieurs éléments ou parties 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, ... disposés les. uns à la suite des autres et de préférence bout à bout, autour du dormant 1. Ces éléments sont constitués par des bandes métalliques plates dont la forme est fonction de celle du hublot. Ils sont encastrés, par l'intermédiaire de leur bordure interne 16', dans une rainure 17 ménagée dans la surface périphérique du dormant.To eliminate this drawback, an embodiment of the window is provided according to which the flange 16 is made up of several elements or parts 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, ... arranged therein. one after the other and preferably end to end, around the frame 1. These elements consist of flat metal strips whose shape depends on that of the window. They are embedded, by means of their internal border 16 ', in a groove 17 formed in the peripheral surface of the frame.
Les éléments 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d constituant la collerette 16 sont rendus solidaires du dormant 1 , par tout moyen de fixation approprié, par exemple par vissage, au moyen de vis 18, sur un support de collerette 19 fixé sur la périphérie du dormant, par exemple par soudure 20. De la sorte, les éléments constitutifs de la collerette ne peuvent ressortir de la rainure 17 dans laquelle ils sont engagés. Selon une autre disposition caractéristique du procédé de l'invention, on utilise, pour la réalisation du dormant 1 , un plat dans chacune des faces opposées duquel on exécute au moins une rainure longitudinale 7, 17, ce plat rainure étant ensuite plié de manière à obtenir un corps tubulaire présentant la section désirée et comportant une rainure périphérique 17, on encastre ensuite, dans cette dernière, une pluralité d'éléments 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, de préférence aboutés les uns à la suite des autres, de façon à constituer une collerette périphérique 16, lesdits éléments de collerette étant rendus solidaires du dormant 1 par tout moyen de fixation approprié, par exemple par les moyens précédemment décrits. The elements 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d constituting the collar 16 are made integral with the frame 1, by any suitable fixing means, for example by screwing, by means of screws 18, on a collar support 19 fixed on the periphery of the frame , for example by welding 20. In this way, the components of the flange can not emerge from the groove 17 in which they are engaged. According to another characteristic arrangement of the process of the invention, a flat is used in each of the opposite faces to produce the frame 1, at least one longitudinal groove 7, 17 being executed, this flat groove then being folded so as to obtaining a tubular body having the desired section and having a peripheral groove 17, there is then fitted into the latter a plurality of elements 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, preferably abutted one after the other, so as to constitute a peripheral flange 16, said flange elements being made integral with the frame 1 by any suitable fixing means, for example by the means previously described.
