Un système de rideau roulant est un rideau roulant généralement constitué d'une pluralité de lames transversales enroulées sur un tambour prévu pour être entraîné, dans un sens ou dans l'autre par un moteur électrique. Une unité de commande est prévue pour pouvoir piloter le moteur électrique, soit dans un mode arrêté, soit dans un mode marche, dans un sens permettant la montée du rideau ou dans l'autre permettant sa descente et ce, sous la commande par exemple d'un bouton. D'autres modes de fonctionnement peuvent également être prévus.A rolling curtain system is a rolling curtain generally consisting of a plurality of transverse blades wound on a drum intended to be driven, in one direction or the other by an electric motor. A control unit is provided to be able to control the electric motor, either in a stopped mode, or in a running mode, in a direction allowing the rise of the curtain or in the other allowing its descent and this, under the control for example d 'a button.

On connaît déjà des systèmes de rideau roulant dont la lame, côté bord libre ou distal du rideau, est pourvue de moyens permettant la commande de l'arrêt du moteur lorsque cette lame distale rencontre un obstacle.Rolling curtain systems are already known whose blade, on the free or distal edge of the curtain, is provided with means enabling the control of the stopping of the motor when this distal blade encounters an obstacle.

Le but de la présente invention est de prévoir un tel système de rideau roulant mais qui soit de structure telle qu'il permette la détection d'intrusion par l'ouverture que le rideau est censé fermer.The purpose of the present invention is to provide such a rolling curtain system but which is of such a structure that it allows the detection of intrusion by the opening that the curtain is supposed to close.

A cet effet, un système de rideau roulant selon la présente invention est du type comprenant un rideau constitué d'une pluralité de lames transversales qui sont enroulées sur un tambour prévu pour être mû par un moteur et une unité de commande prévue pour pouvoir piloter ledit moteur. Il est caractérisé en ce que la lame distale dudit rideau est pourvue d'une unité de détection prévue pour transmettre un signal de détection à ladite unité de commande lorsque ladite lame distale est l'objet d'une accélération ou d'une décélération dans au moins la direction de déplacement dudit rideau dont l'amplitude est supérieure à une valeur seuil donnée, ledit système de rideau roulant comportant une alarme qui, lorsqu'elle est activée, actionne ses moyens avertisseurs d'alarme lorsque, ladite lame distale étant dans une position prédéterminée de fermeture totale ou partielle dudit rideau, ladite unité de détection émet ledit signal de détection.For this purpose, a rolling curtain system according to the present invention is of the type comprising a curtain consisting of a plurality of transverse blades which are wound on a drum intended to be driven by a motor and a control unit. provided to be able to control said engine. It is characterized in that the distal blade of said curtain is provided with a detection unit provided for transmitting a detection signal to said control unit when said distal blade is subject to acceleration or deceleration in minus the direction of movement of said curtain whose amplitude is greater than a given threshold value, said rolling curtain system comprising an alarm which, when activated, actuates its alarm warning means when said distal blade is in a predetermined position of total or partial closure of said curtain, said detection unit emits said detection signal.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle avantageuse, ladite unité de commande, à la réception dudit signal de détection, compare la position atteinte à ce moment par ladite lame distale à une ou plusieurs positions de fermeture totale ou partielle dudit rideau et, lorsque celle-ci ne correspond pas à ladite ou une desdites positions de fermeture, commande le moteur pour que le rideau remonte de quelques centimètres.According to an advantageous additional characteristic, said control unit, on receiving said detection signal, compares the position reached at this moment by said distal plate at one or more positions of total or partial closure of said curtain and, when this does not correspond not at said one or more of said closing positions, controls the motor for the curtain to rise a few centimeters.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle avantageuse, lorsque ledit moteur est arrêté, ladite unité de commande est dans une position de repos dans laquelle elle ne peut commander le moteur électrique en rotation uniquement que lorsque l'utilisateur le commande.According to another advantageous additional feature, when said motor is stopped, said control unit is in a rest position in which it can only control the electric motor in rotation only when the user controls it.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle avantageuse, ladite unité de détection comporte un circuit de détection prévu pour pouvoir mesurer des accélérations ou des décélérations dans au moins la direction de déplacement dudit rideau, une unité de contrôle prévue pour délivrer un signal de détection lorsque le ou un signal délivré par ledit circuit de détection présente une valeur représentative d'une accélération ou d'une décélération dont l'amplitude est supérieure à une valeur seuil donnée, et un émetteur radiofréquence.According to another advantageous additional feature, said detection unit comprises a detection circuit designed to be able to measure accelerations or decelerations in at least the direction of movement of said curtain, a control unit intended to deliver a detection signal when the or a signal delivered by said detection circuit has a value representative of an acceleration or deceleration whose amplitude is greater than a given threshold value, and a radiofrequency transmitter.

Ledit circuit de détection est par exemple du type MEM.Said detection circuit is for example of the MEM type.

Les caractéristiques de l'invention mentionnées ci-dessus, ainsi que d'autres, apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description suivante d'un exemple de réalisation, ladite description étant faite en relation avec les dessins joints, parmi lesquels:

  • La Fig. 1 est un schéma synoptique d'un système de rideau roulant selon la présente invention, et
  • La Fig. 2 est un schéma synoptique d'une unité de détection équipant la lame distale d'un rideau d'un système de rideau roulant selon la présente invention.
The characteristics of the invention mentioned above, as well as others, will appear more clearly on reading the following description of an exemplary embodiment, said description being given in relation to the attached drawings, among which:
  • The Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a rolling curtain system according to the present invention, and
  • The Fig. 2 is a block diagram of a sensor unit equipping the distal blade of a curtain of a rolling curtain system according to the present invention.

Un système de rideau roulant, tel que celui qui est représenté à la Fig. 1, comprend un rideau roulant 1 généralement constitué d'une pluralité de lames transversales 10 qui sont enroulées sur un tambour 12 prévu pour être mû par un moteur électrique 13. Il comprend encore une unité de commande 14 qui est prévue pour pouvoir piloter le moteur électrique 13, soit dans un mode arrêté, soit dans un mode marche, dans un sens permettant la montée du rideau 1 ou dans l'autre permettant sa descente sous la commande, par exemple, d'un bouton approprié 16. D'autres modes de fonctionnement peuvent également être prévus.A rolling curtain system, such as the one shown in Fig. 1 , comprises a rolling curtain 1 generally consisting of a plurality of transverse blades 10 which are wound on a drum 12 intended to be driven by an electric motor 13. It further comprises a control unit 14 which is provided to be able to control the electric motor 13, either in a stopped mode, or in a running mode, in a direction allowing the rise of the curtain 1 or in the other allowing its descent under the control, for example, of an appropriate button 16. Other modes of operation may also be provided.

La lame 11, côté bord libre ou distal du rideau, est pourvue d'une unité de détection 15 équipée d'une antenne 15a. Un mode de réalisation de cette unité de détection est représenté à la Fig. 2.The blade 11, on the free or distal edge side of the curtain, is provided with a detection unit 15 equipped with an antenna 15a. One embodiment of this detection unit is shown in FIG. Fig. 2 .

Elle comprend un circuit de détection 151 qui est prévu pour pouvoir mesurer des accélérations ou des décélérations dans au moins une direction. L'unité de détection 15 est montée sur la lame 11 de manière que le circuit de détection 151 mesure dans au moins la direction de déplacement du rideau, en l'occurrence la direction verticale.It comprises a detection circuit 151 which is provided to be able to measure accelerations or decelerations in at least one direction. The detection unit 15 is mounted on the blade 11 so that the detection circuit 151 measures in at least the direction of movement of the curtain, in this case the vertical direction.

Le circuit 151, qui est représenté à la Fig. 2, est prévu pour mesurer des accélérations ou des décélérations dans deux directions. L'unité de détection 15 est alors montée sur la lame 11 de manière que le circuit de détection 151 mesure les accélérations et des décélérations dans les directions transversale et longitudinale de la lame 11, c'est-à-dire la direction horizontale contenant la lame 11 et la direction verticale. Le circuit de détection 151 est, par exemple, un circuit du type dit senseur MEM (Micro-Electro-Mechanical). Il délivre sur ses deux bornes de sortie deux signaux Sv et Sh par exemple sous forme de tensions qui sont sensiblement proportionnelles aux amplitudes des accélérations ou décélérations mesurées ou par exemple encore, sous forme de signaux numériques représentant des valeurs numériques liées aux amplitudes des accélérations ou décélérations mesurées.The circuit 151, which is represented at Fig. 2 , is intended to measure acceleration or deceleration in two directions. The detection unit 15 is then mounted on the blade 11 so that the detection circuit 151 measures the accelerations and decelerations in the transverse and longitudinal directions of the blade 11, that is to say the horizontal direction containing the blade 11 and the vertical direction. The detection circuit 151 is, for example, a circuit of the so-called MEM (Micro-Electro-Mechanical) sensor type. It delivers on its two output terminals two signals Sv and Sh, for example in the form of voltages that are substantially proportional to the amplitudes of the accelerations or decelerations measured or, for example, in the form of digital signals representing numerical values related to the amplitudes of the accelerations or measured decelerations.

Ces signaux Sv et Sh sont fournis à une unité de contrôle 152 prévue pour délivrer un signal de détection Sd lorsque l'un au moins de ces signaux Sv et Sh présente une valeur supérieure à une valeur seuil prédéterminée. Le signal Sd est transmis à un émetteur 153 pourvu de l'antenne 15a de manière à transmettre ce signal de détection soit à l'unité de commande 14, laquelle est pourvue pour ce faire d'une antenne 14a et aussi d'un récepteur (non représenté), soit à une alarme 17 pourvue elle aussi pour ce faire d'une antenne 17a. L'alarme 17 est également pourvue de moyens avertisseurs d'alarme, tels qu'une sirène d'alarme 17b.These signals Sv and Sh are supplied to a control unit 152 intended to deliver a detection signal Sd when at least one of these signals Sv and Sh has a value greater than a predetermined threshold value. The signal Sd is transmitted to a transmitter 153 provided with the antenna 15a so as to transmit this detection signal either to the control unit 14, which is provided for this purpose with an antenna 14a and also with a receiver ( not shown), or an alarm 17 provided with it also to do this an antenna 17a. The alarm 17 is also provided with alarm warning means, such as an alarm siren 17b.

L'unité de commande 14 est également reliée à l'alarme 17 et comporte, pour ce faire, une antenne 14b en relation avec l'antenne 17a de l'alarme 17. D'autres configurations sont envisageables : une seule antenne pour l'unité de commande 14 jouant le rôle des antennes 14a et 14b, l'unité de commande 14 et l'alarme 17 formant une unique unité ne possédant alors qu'une seule antenne (la liaison assurée par les antennes 14b et 17a n'est alors plus nécessaire et la fonction des antennes 14a et 17a peut être assurée par une unique antenne), etc.The control unit 14 is also connected to the alarm 17 and comprises, for this purpose, an antenna 14b in connection with the antenna 17a of the alarm 17. Other configurations are conceivable: a single antenna for the control unit 14 acting as antennas 14a and 14b, the control unit 14 and the alarm 17 forming a single unit then having only one antenna (the connection provided by the antennas 14b and 17a is then more necessary and the function of the antennas 14a and 17a can be provided by a single antenna), etc.

Le système de rideau roulant représenté à la Fig. 1 comporte également un système d'indexation 12a lié au tambour 12 pour renseigner l'unité de commande 14 sur la position présente de la lame distale 11 du rideau 1.The rolling curtain system shown in Fig. 1 also comprises an indexing system 12a connected to the drum 12 to inform the control unit 14 on the present position of the distal blade 11 of the curtain 1.

Lorsque l'utilisateur commande, au moyen du bouton 16, la fermeture du rideau 1, le moteur 13, commandé par l'unité 14, se met en mouvement de manière à ce que le rideau 1 descende. L'unité de commande 14 vérifie alors de manière continue ou quasi-continue si la position présente de la lame distale 11 correspond à une position prédéterminée de fermeture du rideau 11, par exemple soit une position de fermeture complète, soit une position de fermeture partielle laissant un espace entre la lame distale 11 et le bas de l'ouverture. Pour ce faire, l'unité de commande 14 compare la valeur de la position délivrée par ledit système d'indexation 12a à des valeurs de position prédéterminée, par exemple par l'utilisateur.When the user controls, by means of the button 16, the closure of the curtain 1, the motor 13, controlled by the unit 14, starts to move so that the curtain 1 goes down. The control unit 14 then checks in a continuous or quasi-continuous manner whether the present position of the distal blade 11 corresponds to a predetermined closing position of the curtain 11, for example either a complete closed position or a partial closed position. leaving a gap between the distal blade 11 and the bottom of the opening. For this purpose, the control unit 14 compares the value of the position delivered by said indexing system 12a with predetermined position values, for example by the user.

Si la position atteinte par la lame distale 11 ne correspond pas à une desdites positions prédéterminées de fermeture du rideau 11, le moteur 13 continue de tourner et le rideau 1 de descendre. Par contre, si la position atteinte par la lame distale 11 correspond à une desdites positions prédéterminées de fermeture du rideau 11, l'unité de commande 14 commande le moteur 13 pour qu'il arrête puis se remet dans son état de repos. On rappelle que, dans cette position de repos, l'unité de commande 14 ne peut commander le moteur 13 uniquement que lorsque l'utilisateur actionne le bouton 16.If the position reached by the distal blade 11 does not correspond to one of said predetermined closing positions of the curtain 11, the motor 13 continues to rotate and the curtain 1 to go down. On the other hand, if the position reached by the distal blade 11 corresponds to one of the predetermined closing positions of the curtain 11, the control unit 14 commands the motor 13 to stop and then return to its idle state. It is recalled that, in this rest position, the control unit 14 can only control the motor 13 when the user actuates the button 16.

Lorsque le moteur 13 se met en mouvement de manière à ce que le rideau 1 descende, une valeur impulsive du signal Sv est délivrée par le circuit de détection 151 et est fournie à l'unité de contrôle 152 pour que cette dernière génère un signal de détection Sd impulsionnel transmis, au moyen de l'émetteur 153 et via l'antenne 15a, à l'unité de commande 14 qui se place alors dans un état d'attente d'une nouvelle impulsion.When the motor 13 starts to move so that the curtain 1 goes down, an impulsive value of the signal Sv is delivered by the detection circuit 151 and is supplied to the control unit 152 so that the latter generates a signal. pulsed Sd detection transmitted, by means of the transmitter 153 and via the antenna 15a, to the control unit 14 which is then placed in a waiting state of a new pulse.

Lorsque le rideau 1 s'arrête de descendre soit parce que sa lame distale 11 a rencontré un obstacle, soit parce qu'elle est arrivée dans des positions prédéterminées, une valeur impulsive du signal Sv est délivrée par le circuit de détection 151 et est fournie à l'unité de contrôle 152 qui génère alors un signal de détection Sd impulsionnel lui-même transmis à l'unité de commande 14.When the curtain 1 stops going down either because its distal blade 11 has encountered an obstacle, or because it has arrived at predetermined positions, an impulsive value of the signal Sv is delivered by the detection circuit 151 and is supplied to the control unit 152 which then generates a detection signal Sd pulse itself transmitted to the control unit 14.

Dans un premier mode de réalisation, dans le cas où l'arrêt de la lame distale 11 est du à un obstacle, l'unité de commande 14, à la réception du second signal de détection Sd, commande le moteur 13 pour qu'il arrête puis elle se remet dans son état de repos. Dans le cas où l'arrêt de la lame distale 11 est du à son arrivée à une position prédéterminée, l'unité de commande 14 commande directement l'arrêt du moteur 13 et se place dans son état de repos. On rappelle, si besoin est, que dans cette position de repos, l'unité de commande 14 ne peut commander le moteur 13 uniquement que lorsque l'utilisateur actionne le bouton 16.In a first embodiment, in the case where the stopping of the distal blade 11 is due to an obstacle, the control unit 14, upon receipt of the second detection signal Sd, controls the motor 13 so that it stop and then she goes back to her resting state. In the case where the stop of the distal blade 11 is due to its arrival at a predetermined position, the control unit 14 directly controls the stopping of the motor 13 and is placed in its state of rest. It is recalled, if necessary, that in this rest position, the control unit 14 can control the motor 13 only when the user actuates the button 16.

Dans un second mode de réalisation de l'invention, lorsque la position d'arrêt de la lame distale 11 ne correspond à une position de fermeture prédéterminée, l'unité de commande 14 commande le moteur 13 pour qu'il tourne dans l'autre sens pendant un court instant si bien que le rideau 1 remonte de quelques centimètres. Puis l'unité de commande 14 se remet dans son état de repos. Là encore, l'unité de commande 14 ne peut commander le moteur 13 uniquement que lorsque l'utilisateur actionne le bouton 16.In a second embodiment of the invention, when the stop position of the distal blade 11 does not correspond to a predetermined closing position, the control unit 14 controls the motor 13 so that it turns in the other sense for a short while so that the curtain 1 goes up a few centimeters. Then the control unit 14 returns to its state of rest. Again, the control unit 14 can control the motor 13 only when the user actuates the button 16.

Lorsque le rideau 1 est dans une desdites positions de fermeture prédéterminées, l'unité 14 commande l'alarme 17 pour l'activer. Elle sera désactivée lorsque l'utilisateur, au moyen du bouton 16, commande la remontée du rideau 1 ou sa descente à une autre position prédéterminée, s'il y en a une. On notera que, d'un point de vue de l'alarme 17, l'unité de commande 14 et l'unité de détection 15 jouent le rôle d'un capteur périmétrique.When the curtain 1 is in one of said predetermined closing positions, the unit 14 controls the alarm 17 to activate it. It will be deactivated when the user, by means of the button 16, controls the raising of the curtain 1 or its descent to another predetermined position, if there is one. It should be noted that, from an alarm point of view 17, the control unit 14 and the detection unit 15 act as a perimetric sensor.

Pendant cette activation de l'alarme 17, si l'unité de détection 15 détecte le déplacement de la lame distale 11 (des signaux impulsionnels apparaissent soit sur l'une soit sur l'autre borne de sortie du disposition de détection 151), un signal de détection Sd est transmis à l'unité de commande 14, puis à l'alarme 17 pour mettre en marche les moyens avertisseurs d'alarme 17a. De manière alternative, le signal de détection Sd est transmis directement à l'alarme 17 pour mettre en marche les moyens avertisseurs d'alarme 17a. Dans ce cas, c'est uniquement l'unité de détection 15 qui joue le rôle d'un capteur périphérique.During this activation of the alarm 17, if the detection unit 15 detects the displacement of the distal blade 11 (pulse signals appear either on one or on the other output terminal of the detection arrangement 151), a Sd detection signal is transmitted to the control unit 14, then to the alarm 17 to turn on the alarm warning means 17a. Alternatively, the detection signal Sd is transmitted directly to the alarm 17 to start the means. alarm horns 17a. In this case, it is only the detection unit 15 which acts as a peripheral sensor.
