(54) Automatically-orientating actuation pushbutton for automatic draft stopper and draft stopper provided with the pushbutton


(57) A draft stopper with an automatically-orientating actuation pushbutton includes a fixed profiled member (2) and a movable profiled member (4) which is slidingly connected to the fixed profiled member (2) and is provided with a sealing means (G) adapted to interact with the floor (P), and a means (12) for the translatory motion of the movable profiled member (4) with respect to the fixed profiled member (2) which includes a pusher (12) and an actuation pushbutton (20) arranged at the end of the pusher (12) that protrudes from the lateral edge of the door in order to co-operate with the doorjamb. The actuation pushbutton (20) includes a sleeve (21) for connection to the pusher (12) and a pusher stud (22) which is coupled to the sleeve (21) by means of a homokinetic universal joint (24,25). The universal joint (24,25) includes a convex head (24) which is rigidly coupled to the connecting sleeve (21) and a concave seat (25) which is rigidly coupled to the pusher stud (22) or vice versa and has a complementary and preferably spherical shape.
