Holder for a rope that can be attached to a garage door leaf

The invention relates to a holder for one end of a cable which can be fixed to a garage door leaf and which serves as a pulling means for closing the door leaf.

A device for fastening is known (DT-PS 1 584 105) a traction means on a door leaf that is suspended at the top in an insertion opening and can be swiveled up and closed by the traction means, the traction means having an end that is wider than the push-through cross-section. In the plane of the door leaf transversely to its direction of movement is a slot-like recess with an enlarged for inserting the traction means / End arranged and the traction means is secured against pulling in the direction of the extended end after insertion. this happens on the one hand in that the slot-like recess is constricted in the central area, and in that the locking rod of the door leaf over the central area of the slot-like Recess is guided at a distance from the door leaf.

Furthermore, there is a device for attaching a traction means to an overhead movable, one-part or multi-part door leaf known, which has a slot-like recess with an enlarged end for receiving the traction means, the Hole-like recess rides an insert piece is provided with an opening through which the traction means is inserted. On the insert piece is a torsion spring projecting perpendicular to the plane of the slot-like recess with an elongated one

set free end, the free end of the torsion spring is designed as a guide for the traction mechanism (DT-PS 2 012 703). The insert piece consists of a plate-like portion which is on the Festlegungssteiie the rotary fire abgauandt & n string with a fitting piece, whose outer contour essentially corresponds to the slot-like recess, uobei in the region of the place of determination of Drehfsder of the end facing away from the plate-like of the shaped piece between it and the Part of a groove is provided which partially surrounds the opening through which the traction means can be inserted. The plate-like part is formed on the fixing side of the torsion spring by a ring-like part reinforced with a rib. This insert is made of elastic material such as plastic and the like.

The two aforementioned devices have proven themselves, because the respective pull rope with no part of its extension Floor of a garage or the like touched, indifferent in soft * Position is the multi-part door leaf. However, these two solutions presuppose that it is possible in parts of the gate- sheet to provide a recess, opposite which the closing rope can be fixed.

The invention is based on the object of providing such a traction means, in particular according to a device of the last-mentioned type, in which a spring supports part of the length of the traction mechanism, to be designed in such a way that the door leaf does not need to be machined, in order to be able to set the holder for the traction means on the door leaf and also to avoid the door leaf having a recess must be provided, which can then not be provided, or would have to be covered by an additional means if the Door leaf, for example, no vertically or horizontally extending stiffening strut is assigned that is at the height of the point runs, on which the traction mechanism on the door leaf should almost be placed.

The invention is based on the idea that each door leaf has a gate lock and that because of the location of this gate lock it is possible to use the lock case of the same,

to be determined. Ds?

Thus, the underlying task is, on the one hand, the lock case and on the other hand to design the holder for the traction means so that the holder of the pull rope can be fixed to the lock To solve this problem, it is proposed that the lock case, which can be fixed to the door leaf, in its lower side wall when the door leaf is in the closed position, with an open side wall towards the door leaf Notch to provide and / on the same two openings to be arranged, and to let the holder consist of a plastic body having a passage opening for the pull rope, the one of the notch of the lock case underside corresponding projection and / §rrdiesem two opposite each other Has lobes extending in directions, dsrsn frsie ends Push the Kün »i * tnffkBrpere into the notch on the underside of the lock chain and engage the openings on the same underside before setting such a lock case, the holder carrying the pull rope is connected to the lock case and then the latter fixed with the lock on the door leaf without the need for a tool to connect the lock case to the holder · It is useful to ensure that the plastic body has a bore running transversely to the projection and a tangential ^ .ur Has the bore extending slot, and that in the bore a several turns having, known per se, torsion spring is inserted in such a way that its one end engages in the slot assigned to the bore and its other end, which is designed as a guide means for the pull rope, in a substantially the protrusion of the plastic body protrudes in the opposite direction · The free end of the torsion spring, which is used to guide the pull rope, should extend, for example, at an angle of 10 ° extend sideways in the direction opposite to the projection! so that the, for example, provided with a knob, through a

Often of one end of the torsion spring guided pull rope, both with the door leaf open as well as with the door leaf closed at a distance of «055 door leaf hMngt = in the open state of the door leaf a light can be detected, although it does not touch the floor of a garage and the like when the door leaf is closed.

The invention is explained below with reference to an exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing. Ea shows:

1 is a view of a garage door lock, FIG. 2 shows a section along the line II-II of FIG. 1,

3 shows a view of a holder to be assigned to the lock with a torsion spring attached to it, which is used for guiding a pull rope is used,

Figure 4 is a side view of Figure 3

The lock 1 shown in Fig. 1 is fixed to a door leaf, not shown, in that at the upper end 2 his lock case 3 two hooks 4 are formed by notching into corresponding openings. for example one engage the horizontally extending stiffening strut of the door leaf. Lugs 5 serve to prevent lateral movement of the lock case; they can be placed between the side walls a bead of the door leaf intervene · Depending on how the door leaf is designed, the lock case can over other lobes 6 and these associated openings 7 are secured against lifting, although other solutions for fixing the lock case are also possible · The one in the closed position of the door leaf The lower side wall 8 of the lock case 3 is provided with a centrally arranged notch 9 and faces on both sides this notch has an opening 10 each. In this notch, a plastic body 11 is inserted, which has a / passage opening 12 for a pull rope, not shown,

one end of which, provided with a knot and the like, rests on a projection 13 of this plastic body 11. As a result, one end of the pull rope is initially fixed opposite the plastic body 11. The pull rope penetrates in a known manner an eyelet 14 the sinsn, long end 15 of a torsion spring 16, the other end 17 engages in a slot 18 which is tangential to a bore 19 which extends transversely to the opening 12 of the plastic body 11 and the Part of the torsion spring 16 is fixed in the plastic body. The projection 13 is provided with two laterally provided slots 20 so that the plastic body can be slid onto the side wall 8 of the lock case 3 there, uo the notch 9 is located. As a result, the closure body is properly guided with respect to the side wall 8; if this guide is tightly dimensioned, the plastic body remains fixed on the lock box when it is connected to the door leaf. In order not to be dependent on possible tolerances, the projection 13 is provided with two opposite directions; extending tabs 21, are slightly bevelled, as can be seen in FIG. 4 / and both run slightly obliquely towards the plastic body.If the plastic body 11 is pushed into the notch 9 of the lock case 3, the two tabs snap into the openings 10, whereby the plastic body is fixed practically rigidly with respect to the lock case 3, a release can only be achieved if the two flaps are lifted so that they no longer engage in the openings 10. The lock case and holder can therefore already be connected to one another at the factory will.
