Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of roller shutter door technology, and in particular, it relates to an anti-fall structure for double-curtain roller shutter doors. Background Technology

[0002] A roller shutter door is a door with multiple articulated door panels linked together. It moves up and down within a fixed track, rotating around a central roller at the top. Roller shutter doors are commonly used in shops. Like a wall, a roller shutter door serves as a horizontal partition. It consists of multiple parts, including curtain panels, base plate, guide rails, supports, roller, housing, control box, roller door motor, limit switch, lintel, manual quick-release switch, push-button switch, and safety device. It is generally installed in locations where it is inconvenient to use a wall for partitioning.

[0003] Most roller shutters are operated by a motor that drives a chain to rotate the roller shutter shaft. The roller shutter shaft rolls up and down the roller shutter body to achieve the raising and lowering of the roller shutter. There is usually a brake device installed at the motor of the roller shutter. However, this brake device can only stop the motor. If the chain breaks, even if the brake device stops the motor, the roller shutter body may still fall and injure people.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device that can directly act on the roller shutter door to stop it from falling when the chain breaks. For example, Chinese invention patent CN109779509A discloses a roller shutter door anti-fall device, mainly used to prevent roller shutter doors from falling and injuring people. It has a simple structure and can prevent roller shutter doors from falling in various states, providing reliable protection. It consists of a pair of stop devices and a triggering device. Its working principle is: when the roller shutter door curtain rises and stops, the electromagnets A and B of the pair of stop devices are simultaneously de-energized, and the spring... The elastic extension causes the piston and stop plate to move towards the inner surface of the U-shaped base plate of the left and right curtain sliding sleeves and press against the inner surface. At this time, regardless of whether the sprocket of the curtain drive device is disengaged, broken or other abnormal, the pair of stop devices can prevent the curtain from falling. When the curtain of the roller shutter door descends, if the curtain suddenly falls for some reason, the triggering device triggers the electromagnetic switch to cut off the power supply to the electromagnets A and B of the pair of stop devices. The left and right stop plates press against the inner surface of the U-shaped base plate to prevent the curtain from falling.

[0005] However, with changing user needs, double-layer roller shutters (i.e., two-tiered roller shutters) are becoming increasingly popular due to their better protection. In a double-layered roller shutter, one motor drives two roller shutter shafts simultaneously via a chain, raising and lowering both shutter bodies. Even with the aforementioned anti-fall devices, the following drawbacks remain: Double-layered roller shutters, with their two doors, have a significant total weight, making it difficult to stop them using friction stops; furthermore, when the roller shutter reaches high temperatures, the door body will fall under gravity the moment the fusible roller melts, and if the anti-fall device is not triggered in time, it will still be ineffective in preventing falls and failing to protect pedestrians below.

[0006] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is necessary for us to design a reasonable and efficient anti-fall structure for double-curtain roller doors. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anti-fall structure for double-curtain roller doors. A blocking block is set at each of the two curtain rollers.

[0023] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0024] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement and steps of the modules and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0025] At the same time, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the process shown in the attached diagram is not performed in isolation, but rather involves multiple steps that overlap.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0027] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the invention or its application or use.

[0028] Techniques, methods, and systems known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, they should be considered part of the specification.

[0029] Example 1: As Figures 1 to 2The illustration shows only one embodiment of the present invention. A fall prevention structure for a double-curtain roller door includes a first curtain roller 11, a second curtain roller 12, and a fusible roller 13. The fusible roller 13 is provided with a transmission chain 131 for connecting to the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12. A blocking part 2 is provided between the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12. The blocking part 2 includes a first blocking block 21, a second blocking block 22, and a connecting post 23 for connecting the first blocking block 21 and the second blocking block 22. The first blocking block 21 is provided with a first blocking post 211 extending towards the first curtain roller 11, and the second blocking block 22 is provided with a second blocking post 221 extending towards the second curtain roller 12. The melting point of the connecting post 23 is lower than the melting point of the fusible roller 13.

[0030] In this invention, the double-curtain roller door has two curtains, which means it requires two curtain rollers, namely a first curtain roller 11 and a second curtain roller 12. When the first curtain roller 11 rotates, it rolls up and unrolls the first curtain. When the second curtain roller 12 rotates, it rolls up and unrolls the second curtain. The first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12 are connected by a transmission chain 131, so that the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12 can rotate synchronously. One of the rollers of the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12 is directly driven by a drive motor (not shown in the figure), while the other roller rotates under the drive of the transmission chain 131.

[0031] In order to connect with the transmission chain 131, the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12 are provided with meshing teeth on their outer sides.

[0032] Of course, in order to enable the double roller door to be equipped with a fire-fighting device, a fusing roller 13 is also connected to the transmission chain 131. When a fire occurs and high temperature is generated, the fusing roller 13 will melt, causing the transmission chain 131 to lose tension and the two door curtains to lose linkage.

[0033] To prevent the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12 from accidentally falling and injuring people when they melt at the melting roller 13 under high temperature, a blocking part 2 is provided between the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12. The blocking part 2 includes a first blocking block 21, a second blocking block 22, and a connecting post 23 for connecting the first blocking block 21 and the second blocking block 22.

[0034] The first blocking block 21 is provided with a first blocking post 211 extending toward the first curtain roller 11, and the second blocking block 22 is provided with a second blocking post 221 extending toward the second curtain roller 12; the melting point of the connecting post 23 is lower than the melting point of the fused roller 13.

[0035] In the event of a fire, before the melting roller 13 melts, the connecting column 23, which has a lower melting point, will melt in advance, disconnecting the connection between the first blocking block 21 and the second blocking block 22. This causes the first blocking column 211 of the first blocking block 21 to lock the meshing teeth of the first curtain roller 11, and the second blocking column 221 of the second blocking block 22 to lock the meshing teeth of the second curtain roller 12, thus securing the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12 and preventing the two curtains from falling and injuring people.

[0036] This utility model discloses an anti-fall structure for double-curtain roller doors. A blocking block is set at each of the two curtain rollers. The blocking post of the blocking block can be locked with the gear on the outside of the curtain roller to prevent the door beam from falling. Moreover, the melting point of the connecting post between the two blocking blocks is lower than that of the melting roller. In the event of a fire, the connecting post can break before the melting roller, locking the curtain roller in advance, effectively preventing falls and providing higher safety.

[0037] Example 2, still as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this is only one embodiment of the present invention. Based on the first embodiment, the present invention provides an anti-fall structure for a double curtain roller door, which includes a mounting frame 1; the first curtain roller 11, the second curtain roller 12 and the fusion roller 13 are all mounted on the mounting frame 1 through mounting bearings.

[0038] Furthermore, the mounting bracket 1 is provided with a first rotating shaft 212 for hinged to the first blocking block 21. The first blocking block 21 rotates around the first rotating shaft 212. The first rotating shaft 212 is provided with a first torsion spring 213 for connecting to the first blocking block 21. Once the connecting post 23 is disconnected, the first blocking block 21 will rotate around the first rotating shaft 212 under the elastic force of the first torsion spring 213, so that the first blocking post 211 of the first blocking block 21 will lock the meshing teeth of the first curtain roller 11.

[0039] The first rotating shaft 212 is provided with a first clamp 214 for limiting the position of the first blocking block 21, so as to prevent the first blocking block 21 from detaching from the first rotating shaft 212.

[0040] Similarly, the mounting bracket 1 is provided with a second rotating shaft 222 for hinged to the second blocking block 22. The second blocking block 22 rotates around the second rotating shaft 222. The second rotating shaft 222 is provided with a second torsion spring for connecting to the second blocking block 22. Once the connecting post 23 is disconnected, the second blocking block 22 will rotate around the second rotating shaft 222 under the elastic force of the second torsion spring, so that the second blocking post 221 of the second blocking block 22 locks the meshing teeth of the second curtain roller 12. The second rotating shaft 222 is provided with a second clamp for limiting the position of the second blocking block 22.

[0041] It should be noted that the elastic forces of the first torsion spring 213 and the second torsion spring are in opposite directions.

[0042] Because the blocking part 2 is located between the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12, and the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12 rotate in the same direction (both clockwise or both counterclockwise), Figure 1 For example, if the blocking part 2 is located to the right of the first curtain roller 11 but to the left of the second curtain roller 12, then in order to stop the two curtain rollers at the same time, the first blocking post 211 and the second blocking post 221 need to be in opposite directions to lock the two curtain rollers.

[0043] Example 2, still as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this is only one embodiment of the present invention. Based on any of the above embodiments, in the anti-fall structure for a double curtain roller door of the present invention, a tensioning roller 14 for connecting to the transmission chain 131 is further provided between the first curtain roller 11 and the second curtain roller 12; in this way, the tensioning roller 14 is used to adjust the tension of the transmission chain 131.

[0044] Furthermore, the fuse roller 13 is disposed on the side of the second curtain roller 12 away from the first curtain roller 11.

[0045] In fact, a fuse roller mounting plate 132 is provided on the outside of the fuse roller 13. The fuse roller mounting plate 132 will melt at high temperature. Of course, the melting point of the connecting column 23 is lower than the melting point of the fuse roller mounting plate 132.

[0046] Finally, both the first blocking block 21 and the second blocking block 22 are integrally formed parts, and the first blocking block 21 and the second blocking block 22 have high structural strength and good fall protection stability.

[0047] This utility model discloses an anti-fall structure for double-curtain roller doors. A blocking block is set at each of the two curtain rollers. The blocking post of the blocking block can be locked with the gear on the outside of the curtain roller to prevent the door beam from falling. Moreover, the melting point of the connecting post between the two blocking blocks is lower than that of the melting roller. In the event of a fire, the connecting post can break before the melting roller, locking the curtain roller in advance, effectively preventing falls and providing higher safety.

[0048] This utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, and various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
