Description

Title of the invention: Universal elevator landing door frame cladding and its implementation method. Technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a universal elevator landing door surround and an associated cladding method. The invention will find application in the building sector, and more specifically in elevators during the installation or renovation of the cladding around elevator landing doors. PRIOR TECHNOLOGY

[0002] An elevator comprises a car traveling vertically within a shaft extending the height of the building and including openings, also called bays, that provide access to the elevator shaft on each floor. Each bay includes a landing door. When installing or renovating an elevator, it is necessary to provide for the integration of these bays, either with masonry or by adding sheet metal reveals, also called cladding, to conceal or correct imperfections between the landing door frame and the masonry opening.

[0003] The embrasure of the landing door corresponds to the thickness of the wall in which the opening is formed. It is commonly planned to cover this embrasure as well as at least part of the front face of the wall facing the floor.

[0004] The casing typically comprises two overlapping vertical panels / jambs and a lintel connecting the two vertical panels at their upper ends. The floor indicator may generally be located in the lintel, and the call button in one of the panels.

[0005] Currently, finishing the door openings of landings is a lengthy and tedious process. There are common variations in dimensions, ranging from approximately 1 to 3 cm, between the different openings in a shaft. The elevator itself is installed perfectly vertically, regardless of any imperfections in the openings. Therefore, the thickness to be covered between the landing door and the front of the wall varies on each floor, making the fabrication of the door frames and lintels unique. These dimensional variations necessitate custom-made finishing for each landing door opening.

[0006] The cladding process requires, on each floor, measuring the thickness between the exterior walls and the elevator door frame at the top, bottom, and on each side of the door. The cladding elements are therefore manufactured individually, with individual cutting programs, individual folds, and individual floor markings. On-site, the cladding elements are then distributed to each landing according to their floor assignment. The cladding is then assembled. and mounted on angle brackets previously installed on the door frame. The casing is then screwed from inside the casing to the door frame.

[0007] This dressing work is therefore difficult, very time-consuming and involves a high cost.

[0008] There is a need to propose a solution for dressing an elevator landing doorway that resolves all or part of these drawbacks. RESUME

[0009] To achieve this objective, according to one embodiment, a casing is provided for an elevator landing door opening, the opening being formed in a wall and comprising a thickness separating a front face and an opposite rear face, the casing comprising a formwork including: - a right vertical panel and a left vertical panel, each formed of an L-shaped profile intended to cover at least part of the thickness of the wall in which the opening is formed and part of the front face of said wall, and - a lintel connecting the right vertical panel and the left vertical panel by their upper ends and formed of an L-shaped profile intended to cover at least part of the thickness and part of the front face of the wall, characterized in that the casing includes a straight cover strip profile arranged on the thickness of the wall to cover the junction between the right vertical panel and the wall,A left-hand joint cover profile arranged along the thickness of the wall to cover the junction between the left vertical panel and the wall, and an upper joint cover profile arranged along the thickness of the wall to cover the junction between the lintel and the wall.

[0010] According to the invention, it is thus possible to compensate for differences in the thickness of the reveal without having to manufacture a custom-made trim. The trim, thanks to the joint cover, compensates for thickness differences of up to 5 cm. The joint covers cover the gap between the reveal, the wall, and the formwork, a gap that can be up to 5 cm.

[0011] The various elements of the cladding are standard for all floors and all landing doors.

[0012] According to another aspect, the invention relates to a method for installing a door jamb surround for an elevator landing as described above, comprising a. assembling a right-hand vertical panel and a left-hand vertical panel at their upper ends with a lintel, b. the fixing of the assembly to cover at least part of the thickness and part of the front face of the wall, c. the installation and fixing of a right-hand joint cover profile, adjusted for thickness, to cover the junction between the right-hand vertical panel and the wall; the installation and fixing of a left-hand joint cover profile, adjusted for thickness, to cover the junction between the left-hand vertical panel and the wall; and the installation and the fixing a top cover strip profile arranged according to the thickness of the wall to cover the junction between the lintel and the wall.

[0013] The process allows a real saving of time by allowing the use of identical and easily implemented elements for all the landing doors of an elevator shaft.

[0014] According to another aspect, the invention relates to a kit for dressing the opening of each elevator landing door comprising a dressing as described above identical for the opening of each landing door and a template intended to ensure the positioning and fixing of the dressing.

[0047] According to one example, the right vertical panel, the left vertical panel and the lintel comprise an L-shaped profile including a lateral flange intended to be arranged with regard to the thickness and a front flange intended to be arranged with regard to the front face, advantageously the lateral flange at least partially covering the corresponding frame angle;

[0048] According to one example, the cover strip profiles are arranged on the thickness of the wall so as to cover the junction between a frame angle and a reveal and / or a lintel;

[0049] According to one example, the right cover joint profile and / or the left cover joint profile and / or the upper cover joint profile is configured to cover a junction between a right vertical panel and / or a left vertical panel and / or a lintel and the wall with a gap of between 0 and 5 cm;

[0050] According to an example, the right vertical table and the left vertical table are preferably identical in shape and advantageously in dimensions;

[0051] According to one example, the wall angles are preferably identical in shape and advantageously in dimensions;

[0052] According to one example, the frame angles are preferably identical in shape and dimensions;

[0053] According to one example, the method comprises, before step b, fixing a right-hand wall angle arranged vertically on the right front face of the wall and intended to cooperate with the right vertical panel, and fixing a left-hand wall angle arranged vertically on a left front face of the wall and intended to cooperate with the left vertical panel. According to one possibility, the method comprises fixing a horizontal upper wall angle arranged on an upper front face of the wall and intended to cooperate with the lintel;

[0054] According to one example, the right vertical panel and the left vertical panel are clipped respectively onto the right wall angle bracket and the left wall angle bracket;

[0055] According to one example, the method includes, prior to step b., the fixing of a right frame angle arranged vertically on a right vertical frame post and intended to cooperate with the right vertical panel, the fixing of a left frame angle arranged vertically on a left vertical frame post and intended to cooperate with the left vertical panel, and the fixing of an upper frame angle arranged horizontally on the upper horizontal frame post and intended to cooperate with the lintel;

[0056] According to one example, the right vertical panel and the left vertical panel are applied respectively to the right frame angle and the left frame angle and the lintel is applied to the upper frame angle;

[0057] According to one example, the right vertical panel, the left vertical panel, and the lintel are fixed by pop rivets respectively to the right wall angle, the left wall angle, and the top frame angle. Advantageously, the right vertical panel, the left vertical panel, and the lintel are drilled at the same time as the right frame angle, the left frame angle, and the top frame angle, respectively.

[0058] According to one example, the right cover joint profile is applied to the right frame angle and the right vertical panel, the left cover joint profile is applied to the left frame angle and the left vertical panel, and / or the upper cover joint profile is applied to the upper frame angle and the lintel to cover their joint;

[0059] According to one example, the process is reproduced identically for each landing door opening of an elevator with identical right vertical panels, identical left vertical panels, identical lintels, identical wall angles and / or frame angles, preferably in shape and advantageously in dimensions;

[0060] For the remainder of the description, 'top' and 'bottom', or their derivatives, 'superior' and 'inferior', refer to a relative positioning quality of an element of the elevator or its casing when it is functionally installed. 'Top' is oriented away from the ground and 'bottom' is oriented towards the ground. The upper end is at the top and the lower end is at the bottom.

[0061] Vertical means that which is parallel to the direction of gravity given in particular by the plumb line, and horizontal means that which is perpendicular to the vertical. The top and bottom are vertically opposite.

[0062] Transverse is understood to mean a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction. A transverse section is a section perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The longitudinal direction is understood to be the vertical direction and the transverse direction is understood to be the horizontal direction.

[0063] Right and left are understood when looking at the door panel or landing from the elevator landing. These terms are used for simplicity in the description, but may be reversed if one is in elevator shaft 5.

[0064] A parameter "approximately equal to / greater than / less than" or "of the order of" a given value means that this parameter is equal to / greater than / less than the given value, to within 10% or even 5% of that value.

[0065] For the purposes of this disclosure, the expression "A and / or B" means (A), (B) or (A and B). For the purposes of this disclosure, the expression "A, B and / or C" means (A), (B), (C), (A and B), (A and C), (B and C), or (A, B and C).

[0066] In the following description, the term "on" or "in contact" does not necessarily mean "directly on" or "directly in contact." Thus, when it is stated that a part or component Al is supported "on" a part or component Bl, this does not mean that parts or components Al and B1 are necessarily in direct contact with each other. These parts or components Al and Bl may be either in direct contact or supported by one or more other parts.

[0067] An elevator is typically housed in a shaft 5 extending vertically within or adjacent to a building. Openings are formed in the shaft 5 to allow communication between the shaft 5 and the floors 4. The elevator car travels vertically within the shaft 5 and stops at the openings in the shaft 5 corresponding to each floor 4 served. These openings in the shaft 5 are also called bays. The openings are formed in a wall. These openings must be secured by doors called landing doors 7 in order to control access to the shaft 5 and to the elevator car when it is positioned in front of the opening. These openings must also be fitted with cladding to make the assembly aesthetically pleasing and secure.

[0068] Each opening includes a reveal, which is understood as the thickness 1 of the wall in which the opening is formed. The reveal includes a thickness 1 separating a front face 2 and an opposite rear face 3. The interior is understood as The side of the opening corresponding to the elevator shaft 5 and the outside is understood as the opposite side of the opening corresponding to the landing. The front face 2 of the wall in which the opening is formed corresponds to the outside face of the wall, i.e. facing the landing, of floor 4, while the rear face 3 of the wall corresponds to the inside face, i.e. facing the elevator shaft 5.

[0069] According to one possibility, an elevator landing door comprises a frame 300 for the door itself. The door is recessed into a wall. The frame 300 and the landing door 7 are arranged within the door opening.

[0070] The frame 300 is formed of three uprights 301, 302, 303. The frame 300 comprises two vertical uprights: a right upright 301 and a left upright 302, and an upper upright 303 arranged horizontally and connecting the two vertical uprights 301, 302 at their upper ends. Advantageously, the right upright 301 and the left upright 302 are identical in shape and dimensions.

[0071] As illustrated in the figures and by way of non-limiting example, the landing door 7 comprises two movable panels.

[0072] The invention relates to a covering for the opening of an elevator landing door. The invention therefore applies to covering at least part of the thickness 1 and advantageously at least part of the front face 2 of the wall in which the opening is formed.

[0073] The door frame of the landing provides a connection between the elevator and the building to ensure maximum safety by sealing the gap between the masonry and the elevator door. The frame may incorporate fire protection, a landing call button, a display, and / or a fire department call button.

[0074] The casing comprises a right vertical panel 101, a left vertical panel 102, and advantageously a lintel 103. The right vertical panel 101 and the left vertical panel 102 are advantageously connected at their upper ends by the lintel 103, thus forming a casing 100. By way of example, the right vertical panel 101 and the left vertical panel 102 are secured to the lintel 103 by screws and bolts and / or rivets and / or glue.

[0075] According to an advantageous possibility, the right vertical table 101 and the left vertical table 102 are identical in shape and dimensions.

[0076] By way of example as illustrated in the figures, the right vertical table 101 and the left vertical table 102 are each formed of an L-shaped profile.

[0077] According to an advantageous possibility, the lintel 103 is identical in shape and dimensions to the vertical panels 100, 102. By way of example as illustrated in the figures, the lintel 103 is formed of an L-shaped profile. The L-shaped profile advantageously extends along a main longitudinal direction.

[0078] L-shaped profiles are for example made of metal such as aluminium, brushed stainless steel, engraved, square, linen or painted steel sheet, etc.

[0079] The L-shaped profiles of the vertical panels 101, 102 and advantageously also of the lintel 103 comprise a lateral flange 104 and a front flange 105. The lateral flange 104 and the front flange 105 are advantageously arranged perpendicularly. The lateral flange 104 is advantageously designed to be positioned with respect to the thickness 1 of the reveal, while the front flange 105 is advantageously designed to be positioned with respect to the front face 2 of the reveal.

[0080] According to one possibility, the L-profile includes a return 106 arranged at the free end of the front flange 105. The return 106 is, for example, a fold formed in the direction of the side flange 104. The return 106 may be perpendicular to the front flange 105. The return 106 is advantageously designed to cooperate with a wall angle bracket 401, 402 described below. The return 106 is designed to clip the L-profile onto the front face 2 of the opening.

[0081] According to a preferred embodiment, the L-shaped profile of the vertical panels 101, 102 includes at the free end of the return 106 a stop 107. The stop 107 is either formed in the extension of the return 106 or the stop 107 is preferably formed towards the inside of the return 106, so that the stop 107, the return 106 and the front flange 105 are arranged in the form of a U. The stop 107 preferentially faces the opening of the landing door and in particular the wall angle 401, 402.

[0082] According to a preferred embodiment, to ensure the fixing of the formwork 100 on the opening of the elevator landing door, the cladding includes a right wall angle 401, a left wall angle 402 and advantageously a top wall angle.

[0083] The right wall angle 401 and the left wall angle 402 are advantageously arranged vertically on the front face 2 of the wall in which the embrasure is formed respectively to the right and left of the opening.

[0084] Advantageously, the right wall angle bracket 401 and the left wall angle bracket 402 are identical in shape and dimensions. The upper wall angle bracket, if present, has the same shape as the vertical wall angles and preferably identical dimensions, except for its overall length.

[0085] According to one possibility, the wall angles 401, 402 are for example made of metal such as aluminium or steel or stainless steel.

[0086] According to a non-limiting example as illustrated in the figures, the straight wall angle bracket 401 and the wall angle bracket 402 are formed by a profile. The profile advantageously extends along a main longitudinal direction. The profile comprises a flat panel 404 and a folded flange 405. The flat panel 404 is intended to be applied to the surface of the front face of the wall on which the wall angles 401, 402 are positioned. The folded wing 405 is advantageously arranged at one lateral end of the flat panel 404. The folded wing 405 is advantageously configured to cooperate with the formwork and preferably with a vertical panel 101, 102 or a lintel 103. More precisely, the folded wing 405 is designed to cooperate with the return 106 and more specifically with the stop 107 of the L-shaped profile forming the vertical panel 101, 102. This cooperation ensures a backstop. The bonding of the stop 107 and the wall angle 402, more specifically the folded wing 405, is optimized.

[0087] According to a preferred embodiment, to ensure the fixing of the formwork 100 on the opening of the elevator landing door, the cladding includes a right frame angle 501, a left frame angle 502 and advantageously an upper frame angle 503.

[0088] The right frame angle 501 and the left frame angle 502 are advantageously configured to cooperate respectively with the right vertical panel 101 and with the left vertical panel 102.

[0089] The right frame angle 501 and the left frame angle 502 are advantageously arranged vertically respectively on the right vertical post 301 and the left vertical post 302.

[0090] The upper frame angle 503 is arranged on the upper upright 303 ensuring the connection of the right vertical upright 301 and the left vertical upright 302 by their upper ends.

[0091] Advantageously, the right-hand frame angle 501 and the left-hand frame angle 502 are identical in shape and dimensions. Advantageously, the upper frame angle 503 has the same shape as the vertical frame angles and preferably the same dimensions, except for its overall length.

[0092] According to one possibility, the frame angles 501, 502, 503 are for example made of metal such as aluminium, steel or stainless steel.

[0093] According to a non-limiting example as illustrated in the figures, the right-hand frame angle 501, the frame angle 502, and the upper frame angle 503 are formed by a profile. The profile advantageously extends along a main longitudinal direction.

[0094] According to one possibility, the frame angle profiles 501, 502, 503 comprise a first lateral flange 504 and a flat panel 505. The first lateral flange 504 and the flat panel 505 are advantageously arranged at a right angle so as to form an L. The first lateral flange 504 is arranged at one lateral end of the flat panel 505.

[0095] Advantageously, the profile of the frame angles 501, 502, 503 includes a fold 507. This fold is a portion of the side flange 504 that is folded back on itself to form a "180° fold". The fold 507 has a length less than the length of the lateral wing 504 forming a receiving void 508. The receiving void 508 is intended to cooperate with the fin 204 of the cover joint profiles 201, 202, 203.

[0096] According to one possibility shown in the drawings, the frame angle profile includes a second lateral flange 506 arranged at the second lateral end of the flat panel 5065 to stiffen this profile. Preferably, the second lateral flange 506 is arranged at a right angle to the flat panel 505. The fold 507 of the first lateral flange 504 is intended to be applied to the frame 300. More precisely, the fold 507 of the first lateral flange 504 is applied to an equivalent flat surface of the frame 300, or of the right stile 301, left stile 302, and / or top stile 303, respectively. Advantageously, the fold 507 and the first lateral flange 504 are attached to the right stile 301 and / or the left stile 302 and / or the top stile 303, for example, by POP rivets, gluing, and / or screwing.

[0097] Advantageously, the flat panel 505 is configured to be in flat contact with the formwork. More specifically, the flat panel 505 is intended to be in contact with the right vertical panel 101, or the left vertical panel 102, or the lintel 103. More specifically, the side flange 104 is intended to be applied to the flat panel 505. Preferably, the side flange 104 is attached to the flat panel 505 by pop rivets, gluing, and / or screwing. The contact between the side flange 104 and the flat panel 505 ensures surface continuity between the landing door and the opening.

[0098] Depending on the thickness 1 of the embrasure, the overlap of the lateral wing 104 and the flat panel 505 will be more or less significant, which allows the use of an identical formwork for all the landing door embrasures of an elevator.

[0099] Advantageously, the cladding according to the invention can therefore be applied to variations in thickness 1 of the reveal corresponding to the width of the flat panel 505 of the frame angles 501, 502, 503 as illustrated in [Fig. 26]. By way of example, the width of the flat panel 505 is 6 cm and the offset is 5 mm on section J1J1 of [Fig. 26] and 35 mm on section J2J2 of [Fig. 26].

[0100] According to the invention, the cladding comprises joint cover profiles 201, 202, 203 configured to cover the joint between the formwork 100 and the door opening. In one possibility, the joint cover profiles 201, 202, 203 can cover the joint between the formwork 100 and the frame 300 of the landing door. In another possibility, the joint cover profiles 201, 202, 203 can cover the joint between the formwork 100 and the frame angles 501, 502, 503. At the level of the formwork 100, the joint cover profiles more precisely cover a portion of the vertical jambs 101, 102 and the lintel 103.

[0101] The joint cover profiles are, for example, made of metal such as aluminum, steel, or stainless steel. The joint cover profiles extend along a main longitudinal direction.

[0102] The joint cover profiles 201, 202, 203 are advantageously identical in shape and dimensions except for the length of profile 203, which will be in accordance with the length of the lintel

[0103] The joint cover profiles advantageously comprise a flat panel 205 receiving at one lateral end a flange 204. The flange 204 and the flat panel 205 form a right angle or an acute angle. According to one embodiment illustrated in the figures, the joint cover profiles comprise a bent end 206 arranged at the lateral end of the flat panel 205. The bent end 206 forms an obtuse angle with the flat panel 205. The bent end 206 allows the vertical panels 101, 102, and the lintel 103 to bear against the lateral flange 104.
