Definitions

  • This invention relates to electrically driven roller blinds of the kind in which the electric driving motor is housed substantially within the roller or a tubular extension thereof.
  • roller blinds of the kind described with provision for automatic stopping of rotation at presettable limits of movement; however the mechanism for achieving this consists of settable riders threadedly engaged with a rotating threaded rod and actuating respective ones of a pair of limit switches. This arrangement is cumbersome and expensive, and does not lend itself to being scaled down to be adapted for window blinds.
  • German Offenlegungschrift No. 32 31 684 (Baumeister & Ostler) discloses a blind of the kind described which is suitable for a window, in particular a car window.
  • the motor is fixed within the roller at one end, which creates problems of twisting of the electric wire which leads out of the other end of the roller.
  • no limit switches are provided for automatic operation. It is an object of the present invention to provide ⁇ a roller blind of the kind described which is adapted for use as a window blind and which does not suffer from the disadvantages and drawbacks mentioned above.
  • a roller blind of the kind described in which the electric driving motor is fastened to an end support bracket and is freely received with a clearance in a tubular end of the roller the motor shaft being drivingly connected to the roller to rotate the roller around the motor.
  • Raising and lowering of the blind may be accomplished by a flick of a switch, mounted if desired close to the window or remote therefrom, for example next to the light switch by the door of a room.
  • the probe may comprise a length of wire one end of which is bent to an elongate U-shape through which an edge of the blind runs.
  • the motor may be push-fitted in a tub.ular housing which may itself be welded or otherwise fixed to or integral wi'th the bracket. This method of attachment is considerably more economic in terms of materials and assembly time than the complicated fixtures referred to above.
  • the bearing may be for example a plastics ring having antifrictional properties, or indeed a roller or needle bearing cage.
  • the bearing could be fixed inside the end of the roller.
  • the bracket, and the complementary bracket for the other end of the roller may be a slide fit into wall-mounting brackets. The advantage of this is the ease of installation. Once the wall-mounting brackets are fixed in place, the other brackets are simply presented to and engaged with the ends of the roller and the assembly may be slid easily into engagement with the brackets fixed on the wall.
  • the roller brackets are preferably in the form of rectangular plates, and the wall- mounting brackets may be generally similar but having inturned flanges to locate the roller brackets.
  • the motor shaft may have a connected roller with a radial protruberance for reception in a slot in a ring inside the roller to effect the drive.
  • Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the operative end
  • Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the operative end.
  • the roller 1 is in the form of a hollow tube rotatably borne between two roller brackets 2, 3.
  • the roller/bracket assembly is fixed to a wall or window surround by mounting brackets 6 which are screw-fixed as shown.
  • the main webs of brackets 6 are of generally similar shape and size to brackets 2, 3 but have inturned flanges 7 within which brackets 2, 3 slide and are received as shown.
  • bracket 2 Fixed to bracket 2 by screws, welds or the like is a tubular housing 8 in which is push-fitted an electric motor 9 whose power is supplied by wire
  • a nylon ring 12 surrounding housing 8 serves as a bearing for the open end of the roller tube 13- As shown in Fig. 3 the ring 12 has a convex outer surface to prevent misalignment of roller tube with the motor housing 8 creating undue friction.
  • the drive shaft 14 of the motor 9 has fixed to it a roller 15 formed with a radial protruberance 16 which engages in one of two slots 17" formed in a ring 18 fixed in the tube 13 by grub screw 19- This engagement -transmits drive from the motor 9 to the tube 13 causing the blind to wind or unwind as the case may be.
  • the rotary bearing at the operative end is formed by ring 12 and the bearing at the other end (not shown) is a conventional stub spindle engaged in a registering aperture formed in the bracket.
  • roller blind herein disclosed represents a considerable advance in the art in terms of simplicity of manufacture and operation whilst retaining the operational features of the more complicated blinds discussed above.

Abstract

Dans un volet roulant motorisé, le moteur (9) est logé à l'intérieur de l'extrémité creuse du volet, l'entraînement étant effectué par l'intermédiaire d'un arbre (14) et d'un cylindre (15) muni d'une protubérance radiale (16) se logeant dans une encoche à l'intérieur du volet. Le moteur (9) est logé dans un logement (8) autour duquel se trouve un palier (12) pour l'extrémité du volet. Un contacteur fin de course (11) coupe automatiquement le moteur lorsque le volet a atteint sa hauteur de course et que sa latte exerce une pression sur la sonde à fil (20) pour provoquer l'actionnement du contacteur.
