ABSTRACT:
The invention is relative to a roller shutter device (3) designed to close a window (1) or other opening, the shutter (3) having side edges (4) that are held in guide tracks (5) and which can be disengaged from their guide tracks (5), each of the guide tracks (5) having an access opening (6) in their upper part through which the corresponding edge (4) of the shutter (3), which may have become disengaged, can once again be engaged into the portion of the guide track considered located above this access opening (6) when the shutter (4) is being moved into its open position, control means (9, 10) being foreseen, at least up to a level located below the portion (12) of the abovementioned guide track, on either side of a plane extending in the longitudinal direction of the guide tracks (5) and passing through the latter, these means allowing the possible sway of the shutter (3) to be controlled at the point where these side edges (3) are engaged into said portion (12) of the guide track through the access opening (6).
