DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention, a universal corner bracket for sheets of movable roofs, relates
to a corner bracket used to join the sections that make up a sheet of a movable sun
roof, each corner bracket joining two sections. The corner bracket has a particular
structure that enables the use thereof to join the sections independently of the function
or use that the sheet should have, such that the different sheets that make up the
sun roof can be constructed with a single corner bracket model.
[0002] The field of application of the present invention is the sector of enclosures, and
specifically those enclosures known as movable sun roofs, in which sheets, usually
made of glass, slide between two guides that are slightly tilted.
DESCRIPTION OF THE STATE OF THE ART
[0003] In state of the art, movable sun roofs that mainly comprise two parallel guide sections
that incorporate grooves for movement between both sections of sheets that are guided
by said grooves are known. The movable roof usually rests on two points, on one, the
rear point, fixed on one end of the guide sections to a wall, and on the other, the
front point, on the opposite end of the guide sections that rest on a portal frame
also formed by sections. Each pair of guide sections forms a lane along which the
sheets run. Said sheets can move along the guide sections in a motorized or manual
way. In the first case, at least one of the two guide sections incorporates a toothed
belt that will be coupled by the corresponding means to one of the sheets of the lane
(which is the farthest from the wall when the roof and the sheets are extended) which
will be the drive sheet that will pull the other sheets, and the belt will also be
coupled to a motor responsible for moving said belt. In the second case, the sheets
are moved manually by using a pole.
[0004] Depending on the use or function of each sheet, they can be classified as three main
types:
- Fixed sheet: located in the upper part of the lane, closest to the wall, when the
movable roof is extended and is not moving.
- Drive sheet: located in the lower part of the lane, farthest from the wall, when the
movable roof is extended and is usually the one that is pulled by the toothed belts
in the case of a motorized roof or the one that is moved with the pole in the case
of a manual roof.
- Intermediate sheet: located between the two previous sheets when the movable roof
has three or more sheets per lane, and is pulled by the drive sheet, depending on
whether this sheet is lifted or lowered.
[0005] In the so-called motorized cases, those that involve an electric motor as well as
those that involve a mechanism manually activated by a handle, in which the movement
is preferably transmitted from the motor or mechanism to the drive sheet through a
toothed belt, are envisaged.
[0006] The sheets known in the state of the art are usually formed by four sections that
form a rectangular or square frame to support, between the four sections, a panel,
preferably made of glass although it can also be made of plastic, which is preferably
transparent or translucent. Said sections are directly joined together by means of
different joining parts and by mechanizing them based on the specific needs of each
section of the sheet, needs that are determined by the sheet type and specifically
by the use or function that the sheet carries out in each lane of the movable roof.
Likewise, said machining operations can consist of perforating the sections in multiple
shapes or making chamfer cuts on the ends of the sections in order to be able to join
them, in addition to being mechanized to be able to join different sections as well
as provide access to the different joining screws or to accommodate or provide an
outlet for stop parts. Likewise, the sections must be adapted to the function of each
sheet.
[0007] This type of structure of the sections of the sheets entail an expense in tools for
adapting and joining the sections that make up each sheet of the movable roof, in
addition to making it more difficult and costly to assemble the sheets.
[0008] The present invention proposes a universal corner bracket that is independent of
the function and type of sheet and only requires the cutting of the sections that
make up the frame of the sheet and the subsequent joining thereof to the corner bracket
as an alternative and a solution to the problems existing in the manufacture and assembly
of sheets for movable roofs.
DESCRIPTION
[0009] The object of the present invention, according to claim 1, is a universal corner
bracket for sheets of movable roofs of the type that joins two sections together in
a way that four corner brackets join four sections making up the sheet of the movable
roof, in other words, a frame that supports the panel made of glass or another material,
which will bw preferably transparent or translucent.
[0010] Said universal corner bracket comprises:
- A supporting body with a first side and a second side forming a 90° angle, each side
having an upper face that makes up the upper face of the supporting body, a lower
face that makes up the lower face of the supporting body, a rear face and a forward
face, and having two attachments, a first attachment after the first side and a second
attachment after the second side to be inserted into the sections that make up the
sheet,
- A horizontal front hole, with a first horizontal axis, which provides access to an
internal housing in the supporting body, in the front face of the first side of the
supporting body, and
- A vertical hole, with a second vertical axis (b), in the upper face of the first side.
[0011] By using the aforementioned structure of the universal corner bracket of the present
invention, it is possible that a single corner bracket could be used to join the sections
that make up the frame of the sheet, independently of the function of said sheet in
the movable roof. Specifically, the first attachment and the second attachment will
be inserted inside the sections, having complementary shapes for that reason, and
suitable retention means will be used to ensure fastening between the corner bracket
and the section of the sheet, which will preferably be screws that pass through through
channels arranged in the corner bracket and are screwed onto the sections, although
said means can also be adhesive. If the corner bracket is fastened by means of screws
to the sections of the sheet, said corner bracket will comprise a first through channel
for the insertion of fastening means, preferably a screw, that will be screwed onto
the section of the sheet and a second through channel in the rear part of the front
face of the second side and in the lower face of the supporting body for the insertion
of fastening means, preferably a screw, which will be screwed onto the section of
the sheet.
[0012] With the aforementioned structure of the corner bracket, this bracket can comprise
different elements based on the functions of each sheet that makes up the movable
roof. In the case of drive sheets and intermediate sheets, they will have at least
two corner brackets that have:
- a first wheel fixed on the vertical hole by means of first retention means and which
rotates with respect to the second vertical axis of said vertical hole, and
- a second wheel arranged in the housing and fixed by means of second retention means,
which rotates with respect to the first horizontal axis of the front hole.
[0013] These corner brackets with wheels or bushings, preferably needle roller bearings
or brass bushings with Teflon, are used to guide the sheets along the grooves of the
guide sections, when the second wheels roll along a horizontal plane and when the
first wheels roll on a vertical plane. Thus, the sliding of the sheets as well as
the positioning thereof between the two guide sections is ensured. In particular,
the intermediate sheets will have these wheels on their four corner brackets since
they are pulled by the drive sheet, which will also have, wheels on their four corner
brackets in the case that the roof is motorized.
[0014] When the sheet is a drive sheet in motorized roofs, two of the corner brackets, preferably
the ones closest to the wall, will comprise, in addition to the wheels, an additional
part, a pull part, whose function is to help couple the corner bracket to the loop
of the toothed belt that is responsible for moving the sheets. Therefore, the pull
part is formed by an elongated body with a first hole in one end and protrusions similar
to teeth on the other end, which will couple to the teeth of the toothed belt. Said
pull part is between the front face of the first side and the second retention means
that pass through the first hole of the pull part, such that it is parallel to said
front face of the first side, protruding from the corner bracket through the second
side thereof.
[0015] On the other hand, when the movable roof is manual, all the corner brackets of said
sheets will have a brake part in the drive sheet and in the intermediate sheet or
sheets that will be used for braking by friction, in addition to allowing sliding
also by friction, of the sheet, without including the aforementioned wheels. This
part will prevent the sheet from falling freely, therefore being able to adjust the
placement of the drive sheet along the guide sections, and therefore, the placement
of the other sheets before the drive sheet. This brake part has a body with an approximate
L shape with first ribs in the first end and second ribs in the second end that reinforce
and act as a stop between the corner bracket of the sheet and the guide section. One
of the ends of one side of the body rests on the horizontal wall of the groove of
the guide sections, while the end of the other side rests on the vertical wall of
the groove of the guide section in order to position the sheet between both guide
sections. The ends of the brake part protrude with respect to the sides of the corner
bracket, preventing them from striking the guide sections. The brake part is fastened
to the lower face of the supporting body of the corner bracket by means of third retention
means.
[0016] For the sheets that are neither drive sheets nor intermediate sheets, in other words,
the aforementioned fixed sheets, and these sheets being used in motorized or non-motorized
movable roofs, which are those that are closest to the wall and do not move under
any circumstances, the corner bracket does not have any wheels, but instead it has
a retention part in the corner brackets farthest from the wall and the aforementioned
brake part in the corner brackets closest to the wall.
[0017] Said retention part is preferably formed by a rectangular prismatic block with a
lower slit in one end and at least one upper groove in the opposite end. The slit
is used for the fixing thereof by means of second retention means to the first hole
of the first side of the supporting body of the corner bracket, and the at least one
upper groove, preferably two, is used for the fastening thereof by means of suitable
retention means, preferably screws, to the guide sections, the position thereof thus
being immobilized in said sections. Said retention part is parallel to said front
face of the first side in a direction opposite to the coupling direction of the section
of the sheet, protruding from the corner bracket through the second side thereof.
[0018] In any case, the placement of the different parts on the universal corner bracket
of the present invention will depend on the needs of each movable roof, the aforementioned
parts in corner brackets of sheets with other functions being able to be included
in the universal corner bracket, such as, for example, two corner brackets with wheels
and two with the brake parts could be included in an intermediate sheet.
[0019] Preferably, and to facilitate the assembly of the different elements on the corner
bracket, this corner bracket comprises a third projection or attachment perpendicular
to the front face of the first side and between the front hole and located the first
attachment of the supporting body. Said third attachment therein comprises the vertical
hole in the upper face of the third attachment and said first through channel passing
through the third attachment and joining the lateral faces thereof.
[0020] In addition to the elements above, object of the present invention, the sheets of
the movable roof comprise the usual components that enable the correct stepped movement
of the drive sheet and intermediate sheet or sheets. Said components can be, among
others, projections in the sections in order to pull the sheets, or rubber seals to
prevent noise and impacts between the metals, or elements to remove water, although
they are usually incorporated in the design of the sections among others.

DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0022] The invention shall be described below in accordance with the figures included in
the present invention.
[0023] Figure 1 shows a movable roof 100 formed by two lanes of five sheets, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3
that rest on the grooves 111 of three guide sections 110, each sheet 1.1 located between
two sections 110. The movable roof has an upper section 101, usually resting on a
wall and a lower portal frame 102 formed by a horizontal section and two vertical
sections where the horizontal section rests. The guide sections 110 are arranged between
the upper section 101 and the horizontal section of the portal frame 102. The upper
sheet 1.2 of each lane, the closest to the upper section 101 of the movable roof 100,
when all the sheets are extended is a fixed sheet 1.2 without movement; the sheet
farthest from the upper section 102 when all the sheets are extended is a drive sheet
1.3, which can move from an extended position next to the horizontal section of the
portal frame to a position under the fixed sheet 1.2; and the sheets 1.1 between the
two previous sheets 1.2, 1.3 are intermediate sheets 1.1 that move only when the drive
sheet 1.3 which pulls said intermediate sheets 1.1 moves. The sections of the movable
roof are preferably made of aluminum.
[0024] The sun roof 100 can have two sheets, a fixed sheet 1.2 and a drive sheet 1.3 or
a fixed sheet 1.2, a drive sheet 1.3 and one or more intermediate sheets 1.1. The
movable roof 100 can be manual or motorized, and in the latter, the drive sheet 1.3
is the one that preferably moves by means of a toothed belt 112 pulled by a motor
that is preferably in the upper section 101.
[0025] Figure 2 shows an example of a sheet 1.1 of a movable roof, in this case, an intermediate
sheet 1.1 of a motorized movable roof 100, which is formed by four corner brackets
10, object of the present invention, that join four sections 2, 3 together, such that
each corner bracket 10 joins a longitudinal section 2 to a transverse section 3. The
transverse sections 3 are parallel to each other, the longitudinal sections 2 are
parallel to each other, and each transverse section 3 forms a 90° angle with a longitudinal
section 2 when it joins the corner bracket 10. The longitudinal sections can be equal
to or different from each other, like the transverse sections, although the longitudinal
sections will be preferably different from each other, while the transverse sections
will preferably be equal. Between the corner brackets 10 and the sections 2, 3 there
is a panel 4 made of glass or another material, for example plastic, that will be
preferably transparent or translucent. The transverse sections 3 are those that are
inserted into the grooves 111 of the guide sections 110 of the movable roof 100, being
parallel to said guide sections 110, And they are usually shorter than the longitudinal
sections 2. Parallel to one of the longitudinal sections 2 and specifically to the
section of the sheet that is closest to the upper section 101, the intermediate sheets
1.1 and drive sheet 1.3 preferably incorporate a rubber seal 2.1 that ensures air-tightness
between the sheets. The sections of the sheet 2, 3 are preferably made of aluminum
like the corner brackets 10.
[0026] Figure 3 shows a detailed cross section of the sun roof 100, which shows the previously
described elements and how the sheets are located on the guide sections 110, the corner
brackets 10 resting on the grooves 111 of said guide sections 110.
[0027] Figure 4 shows an upper perspective view of a universal corner bracket 10 according
to the present invention and Figure 5 shows a lower perspective view of the corner
bracket 10. Said corner bracket 10 preferably comprises a supporting body 13 with
a first side 131 and a second side 132 forming a 90° angle, each side having an upper
face that makes up the upper face of the supporting body 13, a lower face 135 that
makes up the lower face of the supporting body 13, a rear face and a front face, a
first front face 134 of the first side 131 and a second front face 133 of the second
side 134 of the supporting body 13, and having two attachments, a first attachment
12 after the first side 131 and a second attachment 11 after the second side 132,
which are inserted into the sections 2, 3 that make up the sheet, and therefore have
a shape that is complementary to the inside of said sections 2, 3. In the front face
134 of the first side 131 of the supporting body 13, there is a front hole 16 with
a first horizontal axis (b), perpendicular to the guide sections 110, which provides
access to an internal housing 16.2 in the supporting body 13. Said hole 16 passes
through a wall in the lower face 135 of the supporting body 13 to access the housing
16.2, and after said housing, there is another hole 16.1 in the supporting body 13.
In the upper part of the supporting body 13 in said side 131, there is a vertical
hole 15 with a second axis (a) that is preferably perpendicular to the first horizontal
axis, (b). Said second hole 15 is preferably a through hole and reaches the lower
face 135, 174 of the supporting body 13 where there is another hole 15.1.
[0028] Preferably, said second hole 15 is in a third projection or attachment 17 that perpendicular
to the front face 134 of the first side 131 of the supporting body 13. Said attachment
17 is between the front hole 16 and the first attachment 12. The second vertical hole
15 is in the upper face 171 of the attachment 17 and the lower hole 15.1 corresponding
to said vertical hole 15 is in the lower face 173 of said attachment 17.
[0029] The attachments 11, 12 of the corner bracket 10 that are inserted into the sections
2, 3 that make up the sheet can be joined to said sections 2, 3 by means of different
fastening means, such as, for example, adhesive or other mechanical fastening means,
such as, for example and preferably, screws. To join the corner bracket 10 to the
sections 2, 3 by means of screws, the corner bracket 10 has through channels 18, 19
that pass through the supporting body 13 of the corner bracket 10 to be subsequently
inserted into housings for said purpose made in the section 2, 3 of the sheet. Specifically,
the third attachment 17 comprises a first through channel 18, which passes through
said attachment 17 and joins the lateral faces 172, 173 thereof for the insertion
of said fastening means. The fastening means, preferably a screw 6, joins the corner
bracket 10 to the transverse section 3. Likewise, the supporting body 13 comprises
a second through channel 19 in the lower face 135 of the supporting body 13 for the
insertion of other fastening means, preferably a screw 5, that will join the corner
bracket 10 to the longitudinal section 2 of the sheet. Said second through channel
19 Is more specifically located in the rear part of the second front face 133 of the
second side 132 and in the lower face 135 of the supporting body 13.
[0030] Figure 6 shows an exploded view of a first example of a universal corner bracket
10 that incorporates wheels 21, 24 to make it easier for the sheet to roll along the
grooves 111 of the guide sections 110. Specifically, it has a first wheel 21 fixed
on the vertical hole 15 by means of first retention means 22 and which rotates with
respect to the second vertical axis (a) of said vertical hole 15, and a second wheel
24 arranged in the housing 16.2 and fixed by means of second retention means 25 and
which rotates with respect to the first axis (b) of the front hole 16. The retention
means are preferably screws 22, 25 that are inserted into said holes and can interact
with other elements to ensure the positioning thereof or ensure the correct functioning
thereof, such as a washer 26 that is placed between the head of the screw 25 and the
supporting body 13 to ensure correct fastening of the screw 25 between the aluminum
of the supporting body 13 of the corner bracket 10 and the steel screw 25, or a bushing
23 that ensures that the wheel 21 rotates. These wheels 21, 24 roll on the grooves
111 of the guide sections 110, the first wheel 21 on the vertical wall of the groove
111 and the second wheel 24 on the lower or horizontal wall of the groove 111. It
must be understood that the horizontal wall of the groove 111 is tilted in the installation
position thereof.
[0031] Figure 7 shows a corner bracket with the wheels 21, 24 already installed in the holes
15, 16 thereof and retained in the supporting body 13 by means of the screws 22, 25.
Figure 8 shows an exploded perspective view of a universal corner bracket 10 with
the installed wheels 21, 24 prior to being assembled in the sections 2, 3 of the sheet
with the panel 4. The fastening screws 5, 6 of the corner bracket 10 to the sections
2, 3 are shown. The upper face of the first side 131 of the supporting body 13 of
the corner bracket 10 can have a circular notch 137 in the place where the first wheel
21 is located that allows for the placement and rotation of said wheel 21.
[0032] The previously described corner bracket 10 which incorporates the wheels 21, 24 is
applied to the motorized movable roofs, where the intermediate sheets 1.1 will have
four corner brackets 10 of this type which allows them to slide "uncontrollably" or
"in a crazy manner" when the drive sheet 1.3 moves. Likewise, the corner brackets
10 of the drive sheet 1.3 that are farthest from the upper section 101 will also include
these wheels 21, 24 to facilitate the sliding thereof along the grooves 111.
[0033] Figure 9 shows a cross section of a guide section 10 that comprises a corner bracket
10 with the sliding wheels 21, 24 in one of the grooves 111 thereof, such that the
first wheel 21 rests on the vertical wall of the groove and the second wheel 24 rests
on the lower surface or horizontal surface thereof.
[0034] Figure 10 shows an exploded view of a second type of corner bracket 10 according
to the present invention. Specifically, it is a corner bracket 10 that, in addition
to the previously described wheels 21, 24, comprises a pull part 31. This pull part
31 is in the corner brackets 10 of the drive sheets 1.3 in motorized movable roofs
and specifically in the two corner brackets 10 closest to the upper section 101 of
the movable roof 100, while the two farthest corner brackets 10 will only have the
wheels 21, 24 as mentioned above. Said pull part 31 is formed by an elongated body
with a first hole 34 in one end and protrusions 32 similar to teeth on the other end
to couple to another part 38 that is placed between the pull part 31 and the toothed
belt 112. The pull part 31 is between the front face 134 of the first side 131 and
second fastening means 33 that pass through the first hole 34 of the pull part 31.
These second fastening means 33 are also used to fasten the second wheel 24 to the
supporting body 13 of the corner bracket 10. As shown in Figure 11, the pull part
31 is parallel to the front face 134 of the first side 131 of the supporting body
13, protruding from the corner bracket 10 through the second side 132 of the supporting
body 13.
[0035] Figure 12 shows a drive corner bracket 1.3 located with respect to a toothed belt
112 of a movable roof 100, wherein the pull part 31 coupled to the belt 112 through
the intermediate grip part 38 is shown. Likewise, Figure 13 shows a detailed view
of said coupling, in which the pull part 31 is fixed to a grip part 38 of the toothed
belt 112 through a hole 35 in the pull part 31 in order to insert a fastening means
39, preferably a screw, that adjusts to the grip part 38.
[0036] Figure 14 shows another construction of a corner bracket 10 according to the present
invention, in which a brake part 43 is added to the previously described universal
corner bracket 10 (Figures 4 and 5), the objective of which is to provide the intermediate
sheets 1.1 and drive sheets 1.3 of manual movable roofs with a controlled movement,
such that the sheet can move and slide along the guide sections 110 in a controlled
manner since they brake by friction when the brake part 43 rests on the grooves 111
of the guide sections 110. These brake parts 43 are in the four corner brackets 10
of the intermediate sheets 1.1 and drive sheets 1.2 of the manual movable roofs. Furthermore,
these brake parts are in the two corner brackets 10 closest to the upper section 101
of the movable roof 100 of the fixed sheets 1.2.
[0037] Said brake part 43 has an essentially flat body with an approximate L shape and with
first ribs 44 in the first end 41 and second ribs 45 in the second end 42, and it
is fastened to the lower face 135 of the supporting body 13 by means of third retention
means 46 that pass through a hole 47 in the part 43. The ribs 44, 45 arranged in the
ends of the ends 41, 42 of the part 43 aim to reinforce the brake part 43 and in turn
facilitate the positioning of said part 43 in the corner bracket 10 as well as act
as a stop between the corner bracket 10 and the guide section 110.
[0038] Figure 15 shows the part 43 assembled on the corner bracket 10, such that the ribs
44 of the first end 41 face the first hole 16 of the corner bracket 10, while the
ribs 45 of the second end 42 are in the side of the corner bracket 10 to which the
transverse section 3 is coupled. Likewise, Figure 16 shows a cross section of a guide
section 110 where the first end 41 of the brake part 43 close to the vertical wall
of the groove 111 and the second end 42 of said brake part 43 resting on the horizontal
wall of the groove 111 of the guide section 110 are shown.
[0039] Figure 17 shows another element that can join to the universal corner bracket described.
This element is a retention part 50 which aims to retain the corner bracket 10 and
the corresponding sheet to the guide section 110 or to the groove 111 therein in order
to prevent the movement thereof, therefore leading to a fixed sheet 1.2 that are those
closest to the upper section 101 of the movable roof 100, either manual or motorized.
Preferably, these retention parts 50 are in the two corner brackets 10 of the fixed
sheet 1.2 that are farthest from the upper section 101 of the movable roof 100.
[0040] Specifically, said retention part 50 is formed by a rectangular prismatic body with
an arched lower slit 51 in one end and at least one arched upper slit 52 in the opposite
end, preferably two arched grooves 52. The retention part is between the front face
134 of the first side 131 of the supporting body 13 of the corner bracket 10 and the
second retention means 25, preferably a screw, that pass through the lower slit 51
and are inserted into the first hole 16 of the front face 134 of the supporting body
13. The upper arched grooves 52 are used so that retention means 55, preferably screws,
pass through them to fasten or retain the retention part 50 in the groove 111 of the
guide section 110, specifically in the vertical wall of the groove 111.
[0041] Figure 18 shows the retention part 50 already assembled in the corner bracket and
it shows how it protrudes through the second side 132 of the corner bracket 10. This
can also be seen in Figure 19 which shows a corner bracket 10 fastened to the vertical
wall of the groove 111 of the guide section 110 through the retention part 50.
[0042] As mentioned above, the different elements 21, 24, 31, 43, 50 and additional components,
which can be assembled on the universal corner bracket 10, depend on the function
that this corner bracket 10 as well as the sheet 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 of which said corner
bracket 10 is formed is to carry out.
1. A universal corner bracket (10) for sheets of movable roofs, of the type that joins
two sections together in a way that four corner brackets (10) join four sections making
up the sheet of the movable roof,
characterized in that it comprises:
- A supporting body (13) with a first side (131) and a second side (132) forming a
90° angle, each side having an upper face that makes up the upper face of the supporting
body (13), a lower face that makes up the lower face (135) of the supporting body
(13), a rear face and a front face (134, 133) for each side (131, 132) of the supporting
body (13), and having two attachments, a first attachment (12) after the first side
(131) and a second attachment (11) after the second side (132), which are inserted
into the sections that make up the sheet,
