Abstract
A cantilevered folding gate (1) may be used with a module (13) which is suitable for fitting in such cantilevered folding gates (1) and includes a transmission mechanism (5) which is accommodated in a housing (14) and which is designed to transmit the movement of a first gate leaf (3) to a second leaf (4) so that the first (3) and second (4) gate leaf open or close simultaneously by folding.
Claims14
Cantilevered folding gate, comprising:
- a column;
- a first gate leaf which is hingedly connected to the column;
- a second gate leaf which is hingedly connected to the first gate leaf;
- drive mechanism designed to drive the first gate leaf;
- a transmission mechanism designed to transmit the movement of the first gate leaf to the second leaf so that the first and second gate leaf open or close simultaneously by folding, characterized in that said transmission mechanism is substantially accommodated in a housing which is detachably connected to the first gate leaf, in which the transmission mechanism comprises a first rotatable element and a second rotatable element between which a transmission mechanism is provided and furthermore comprises a first and second entrainment member which are respectively designed to connect the first rotatable element to the column and to connect the second rotatable element to the second gate leaf, in that the column comprises a first retaining unit which is designed to accommodate an end of the first entrainment member so that the first rotatable element, in use, cannot rotate with respect to the column, and in that the second gate leaf comprises a second retaining unit which is designed to accommodate an end of the second entrainment member so that the second rotatable element, in use, cannot rotate with respect to the second gate leaf.
