  • Patent number: 6550520
    Abstract: An insulating glazing unit internally provided with a blind which is adapted to be moved from a fully gathered condition to an unfolded condition, and vice versa. The blind, in the gathered configuration, is arranged in the lower part and interacts with an arrangement for pulling a flap in order to unfold it from the bottom upward until the insulating glazing unit is fully blacked out.

  • Patent number: 6095223
    Abstract: An actuation unit for a Venetian blind accommodated in a double-glazing unit or fixed to a window and movable between a fully packed or rolled-up condition and an opened-out condition. The actuation unit includes a magnetic kinematic coupling device which is connected with a device for generating a rotary motion and with kinematic systems for moving the Venetian blind. The magnetic kinematic coupling device has a first permanent cylindrical magnet which is connected so as to rotate with a shaft of the device for generating a rotary motion, and a plurality of second permanent magnets arranged about the first magnet. The second magnets have a polarization extending parallel and similar to that of the first magnet such that the second magnets rotate in relation to the rotation of the first magnet in response to a closure of radial field lines.

  • Patent number: 6082388
    Abstract: The device comprises a safety valve with an actuator which can be armed manually, a regulation valve disposed in a duct downstream of the safety valve for supplying a main burner, a tapping duct for supplying a pilot burner, and a flame detector for the pilot burner for supplying the actuator of the safety valve with sufficient energy to hold the safety valve open after manual arming has taken place and the pilot light has been lit. In order also to supply another burner without compromising the safety of the device, an on/off valve provided in a duct branching off the main duct between the safety valve and the regulation valve has an operating member coupled to the manual arming member of the actuator of the safety valve for keeping the on/off valve in a condition in which it shuts off the branch duct during the manual arming of the safety-valve actuator.

  • Patent number: 5979484
    Abstract: A safety and regulation valve unit for a gas installation, particularly a heating installation, comprises a duct through which the fuel can flow between an inlet and at least one outlet. An on-off fuel-valve is interposed in the duct between the inlet and the at least one outlet, and there is a movable device for controlling the valve as well as an actuator acting on the movable device in order to move it towards a first operative position in which it cooperates with the on-off valve in order to put the inlet into communication with the outlet. The actuator comprises a reversible motor with a rotor connected to a male-and-female screw coupling acting on the movable device to translate it towards the first operative position and to control the on-off valve.
