Definitions

  • the invention relates to a safety device for a closure or sun protection system.
  • the invention also relates to a mechanism for operating such an installation.
  • Closure means doors, gates, shutters and equivalent materials.
  • a winding mechanism for operating an apron, a door, a shutter or the like.
  • Such a mechanism can be actuated mechanically, thanks to a strap or a crank, or electrically through a motor that is most often motor-brake type. It is known to compensate the torque exerted on the winding mechanism by the weight of the deck by means of one or more so-called compensation springs.
  • FR-A-2 242 010 discloses a pawl or balance which comprises a branch capable of coming into engagement with an external toothing of a wheel secured to a winding shaft of an apron.
  • This balance comprises a second branch provided with a roller which forms a counter-weight to the first, while the roller rolls on corrugations formed at the periphery of a second wheel, integral with the first.
  • Gravity tends to press the pebble onto the periphery of the second wheel, so that the first leg of the balance oscillates between an engagement position and clearance relative to the teeth of the first wheel without abutting against them, which is actually the case when the speed of wheel rotation is reduced.
  • DE-A-29 15 547 plans to replace the teeth with rods that provide both the ripple and the locking of a ratchet. This device is active to stop the rotation of a winding shaft only beyond a certain speed of this shaft.
  • Such a situation can in particular occur in the case of an installation comprising several compensation means, such as spring boxes, especially in case of rupture of one of the springs. Such a situation can also occur in the case of an installation comprising a single compensation spring, whose stiffness constant decreases with fatigue.
  • the compensation springs are oversized so that the efforts they deploy are always greater than the effect of the weight of the door lowering, otherwise the downward movement of the apron or grid by the action of the motor induces successive blockages / releases of the pawl that can, in the long run, damage the mechanism.
  • the invention more particularly intends to remedy by proposing a safety device for a closing or sun protection installation comprising an oscillating ratchet. which functions properly, including in case of failure of a compensating means, such as a spring.
  • the invention relates to a safety device for a closing or sun protection system comprising a drive mechanism of an obturation shutter of an opening, this mechanism including a fixed shaft and an element provided with a toothing adapted to cooperate with at least one oscillating pawl or with a cylindrical element oscillating during the rotational movements of the shaft and able to immobilize it in rotation.
  • This device is characterized in that it comprises means for braking or blocking the pawl or the cylindrical element in its oscillation movement during a rolling movement of the apron, these braking or locking means being controlled by means of means for detecting a rupture or failure of a spring or a torque compensation cable exerted on this shaft by the apron.
  • a failure of a compensation means such as a spring, and more particularly a rupture of such a spring, induces a braking of the oscillating pawl, which makes it possible to hold it in the locking position of the spring. element provided with a toothing.
  • a failure of a compensation means such as a spring, and more particularly a rupture of such a spring, induces a braking of the oscillating pawl, which makes it possible to hold it in the locking position of the spring. element provided with a toothing.
  • the braking means and the associated detection means make it possible to react immediately to a failure of the compensating means, before a significant variation in speed of the rotary shaft corresponding to a potentially dangerous displacement of the rotary shaft occurs.
  • shutter means The device of the invention operates, in practice, through a detection of the torque due to the compensation spring and not by the detection of a compensation deficit.
  • the device For compensated type installations, the device provides dual protection, ie low speed protection, which is the case when the failure concerns the compensation means, and at high speed, which is the case for other failures. It turns out in practice that, in compensated installations, the fall of the closure means, that is to say most of the deck, is most often the result of a failure of the compensation means. Thanks to the invention, the life of the installation is maintained since, in the most frequent case, it is not created shock during the implementation of the safety device.
  • the device of the invention is also simpler, lighter, less expensive and less cumbersome than those of the state of the art.
  • the compensation means is a spring banded around an end support of the shaft, between a fixed part relative to the support and an annular member adapted to rotate around that -cci being driven by the shaft, the pawl being pivotally mounted about a fixed axis by providing support.
