Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Seitenschiebetor, das einen im Querschnitt kastenförmigen Tragegurt mit darin angeordneten elektrischen Leitungen für Steuerungs- und Anzeigeeinrichtungen aufweist und an ortsfesten Pfosten geführt ist.The invention relates to a side sliding gate, which has a cross-sectionally box-shaped carrying strap with electrical lines arranged therein for control and display devices and is guided on fixed posts.

Es sind Seitenschiebetore vorgenannter Art in den unterschiedlichsten Ausführungsformen bekannt, beispielsweise als freitragende Seitenschiebetore, welche über die Tor- öffnungsbreite hinaus verlängert sind und im geschlossenen Zustand durch an der Torverlängerung angreifende Stütz-und Führungsrollen gehalten sind. Andere Ausführungen sind in den Torpfosten gehalten, wobei häufig in Doppelpfosten angeordnete Stütz- und Führungsrollen vorgesehen sind, die am Ober- und Untergurt des Tores angreifen.Side sliding gates of the aforementioned type are known in the most varied of embodiments, for example as self-supporting side sliding gates, which are extended beyond the width of the door opening and are held in the closed state by support and guide rollers acting on the door extension. Other designs are held in the goalposts, with support and guide rollers which are often arranged in double posts and which engage the upper and lower chord of the goal.

Für den Betrieb derartiger Seitenschiebetore werden eine Reihe von Steuerungs- und Anzeigeeinrichtungen benötigt, welche u.a. auch der Unfallverhütung dienen. So sind die Tore mit Anzeigeeinrichtungen auszurüsten, welche deutlich erkennen lassen, ob das Tor sich in Bewegung befindet bzw. ob der Torantrieb betätigt wird oder nicht. Derartige Anzeigeeinrichtungen können beispielsweise aus Blinkleuchten bestehen, die an dem sich in die Toröffnung vorschiebenden Ende des Tores oder aber ein- oder beidseitig längs des Tragegurtes verteilt angeordnet sind. In der Regel werden Seitenschiebetore fernerhin mit druckgesteuerten Endschaltern ausgerüstet, die bei Erreichen der Schließstellung des Tores betätigt werden und die gleichzeitig auch der Unfallverhütung dienen,um den Antrieb des Tores stillzusetzen, wenn das Tor gegen einen in der Toröffnung befindlichen Widerstand bewegt wird. Diese für die Betriebssicherheit und die Verminderung der Unfallgefahr wichtigen Steuerungs- und Anzeigeeinrichtungen werden in der Regel über elektrische Leitungen gespeist, die in dem kastenförmigen Tragegurt des Tores untergebracht sind. Die Stromzuführung zu diesen elektrischen Leitungen erfolgt bei bekannten Ausführungen der Seitenschiebetore in der Regel über Schleifkontakte oder Schleifkabel, die beide relativ störanfällig sind. Bei Schleifkontakten besteht die weitere Schwierigkeit, daß parallel zu dem Seitenschiebetor in entsprechenden Fundamenten eine Stromzuführungsschiene als ortsfeste Stromzuleitung angeordnet werden muß, auf welcher sich aus dem Tragegurt herausragende Arme mit entsprechenden Schleifkontakten abstützen. Neben einem sehr großen Aufwand für diese Art der Stromzuführung muß bei dieser Ausführung der Nachteil in Kauf genommen werden, daß Stromunterbrechungen auftreten können, die bei weniger häufiger Betätigung des Tores durch Oxidation der Schleifkontakte unvermeidbar sind. Bei einer Stromzuführung mittels Schleppkabeln ist es notwendig, eine gesonderte Unterbringung des Schleppkabels außerhalb des Tores vorzunehmen, so daß auch hierfür ein erheblicher Bauaufwand erforderlich ist. Bei einer Stromzuführung mittels Schleppkabeln, die auf eine Wickelvorrichtung auf- und abgewickelt werden, ergeben sich zusätzliche Aufwendungen für die Betätigung der Wickeltrommel in Abhängigkeit von der Torbetätigung. Auch bei Anordnung einer Wickeltrommel ist es erforderlich, das mit dem Tor bewegte Kabel in einer entsprechenden schützenden Umhüllung unterzubringen, die sich über den gesamten Schleppweg des Kabels erstrecken muß.A number of control and display devices are required for the operation of such side sliding gates, which also serve to prevent accidents. For example, the gates must be equipped with display devices that clearly indicate whether the gate is in motion or whether the gate operator is being operated or not. Such display devices can consist, for example, of flashing lights, which are arranged at the end of the door which is advancing into the door opening or else on one or both sides along the carrying belt. As a rule, side sliding gates are also equipped with pressure-controlled limit switches, which are actuated when the gate is in the closed position and which also serve to prevent accidents in order to stop the gate being driven when the gate is moved against resistance in the gate opening. These control and display devices, which are important for operational safety and the reduction of the risk of accidents, are generally fed via electrical lines which are accommodated in the box-shaped carrying strap of the door. In known designs of the side sliding gates, the power supply to these electrical lines is generally carried out via sliding contacts or sliding cables, both of which are relatively susceptible to faults. With sliding contacts, there is the further difficulty that a power supply rail must be arranged as a fixed power supply line in parallel to the side sliding gate in appropriate foundations, on which arms protruding from the carrying strap are supported with corresponding sliding contacts. In addition to a very large outlay for this type of power supply, the disadvantage of this embodiment is that power interruptions can occur which are unavoidable if the door is operated less frequently due to oxidation of the sliding contacts. In the case of a power supply by means of trailing cables, it is necessary to accommodate the trailing cable separately outside the gate, so that this also requires considerable construction work is required. In the case of a power supply by means of trailing cables which are wound up and unwound on a winding device, there are additional expenses for the actuation of the winding drum depending on the door actuation. Even with the arrangement of a winding drum, it is necessary to accommodate the cable that is moved with the gate in a corresponding protective sheath that must extend over the entire trailing path of the cable.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Seitenschiebetor der einleitend genannten Art so auszubilden, daß die Stromzuführung zu den Steuerungs- und Anzeigeeinrichtungen über die in dem Tragegurt angeordneten elektrischen Leitungen mit einem außerordentlich geringen Aufwand und größter Sicherheit gegen Störanfälligkeit gewährleistet wird.The invention has for its object to provide a side sliding gate of the type mentioned in such a way that the power supply to the control and display devices via the electrical lines arranged in the riser is ensured with extremely little effort and great security against susceptibility to failure.

Zur Lösung vorstehender Aufgabe kennzeichnet sich das einleitend genannte Seitenschiebetor erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß seitlich an dem Tragegurt eine in Torlängsrichtung verlaufende Führungsschiene vorgesehen ist, welche einen im Querschnitt rechteckigen Führungskanal für die Aufnahme einer Energieführungskette in der Form einer Steggliederkette aus Kunststoff und wenigstens ein darin gehaltenes elektrisches Kabel umschließt, daß das eine Ende der Kette ortsfest gegenüber dem längsbeweglichen Tor in der Führungsschiene geführt ist und das zugehörige Ende des in der Kette gehaltenen Kabels durch einen Längsschlitz der Führungsschiene hindurchgeführt und an eine mit dem Pfosten verbundene Stromzuführungseinrichtung angeschlossen ist, während das andere Ende der Kette an dem Tragegurt befestigt ist und das zugehörige Ende des Kabels durch ein Fenster in der Wandung des Tragegurtes hindurchgeführt sowie mit den im Tragegurt vorgesehenen elektrischen Leitungen verbunden ist, wobei die Kette und das Kabel in der Offenstellung des Tores eine von der Führungsschiene umschlossene Schleife bilden.To solve the above problem, the introductory side sliding gate is characterized according to the invention in that a guide rail extending in the longitudinal direction of the door is provided on the side of the carrying strap, which has a guide channel with a rectangular cross section for receiving an energy chain in the form of a plastic link chain and at least one electrical chain held therein Cable encloses that one end of the chain is guided in a stationary manner with respect to the longitudinally movable gate in the guide rail and the associated end of the cable held in the chain is passed through a longitudinal slot of the guide rail and is connected to a power supply device connected to the post, while the other end the chain is attached to the shoulder strap and the associated end of the cable is passed through a window in the wall of the shoulder strap and is connected to the electrical lines provided in the shoulder strap, the chain e and that In the open position of the door, form a loop enclosed by the guide rail.

Obgleich die genannten Energieführungsketten unter der Bezeichnung "Kabelschlepp" seit mehr als 25 Jahren weltweit bekannt und insbesondere zur Versorgung beweglicher Teile in Werkzeugmaschinen und dgl. eingesetzt worden sind, haben derartige Steggliederketten in Verbindung mit Seitenschiebetoren bisher keine Anwendung gefunden, weil offenbar von der Fachwelt nicht erkannt worden ist, daß derartige Ketten bei der beschriebenen Unterbringung in einem entlang des Tragegurtes verlaufenden Führungskanal auch für die Stromversorgung der Steuerungs- und Anzeigeeinrichtungen von Schiebetoren geeignet sind, wenn die ebenfalls genannte Stromzuführung über eine mit dem Pfosten verbundene ortsfeste Stromzuführungseinrichtung erfolgt.Although the aforementioned energy supply chains have been known worldwide for more than 25 years and have been used in particular to supply moving parts in machine tools and the like, cable link chains of this type have so far not been used in connection with side sliding gates, because apparently not by experts It has been recognized that such chains are also suitable for the power supply of the control and display devices of sliding gates in the described accommodation in a guide channel running along the carrying belt if the power supply also mentioned is carried out via a fixed power supply device connected to the post.

Durch die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene Ausbildung erfolgt eine geschützte Unterbringung der Steggliederkette und des darin gehaltenen Kabels, wobei der Biegeradius des Kabels bei der Betätigung des Tores durch die Steggliederkette bestimmt wird und durch entsprechende Wahl der Steggliederkette so eingestellt werden kann, daß eine Uberbeanspruchung des Kabels durch Biegebelastungen vermieden und somit eine Stromunterbrechung verhindert wird. Dabei erfolgt durch die beschriebene Ausbildung ein ortsfester Anschluß des einen Kabelendes an der Stromzuführungseinrichtung des Pfostens, während das andere Ende ebenfalls wiederum fest mit den im Tragegurt verlaufenden elektrischen Leitungen verbunden wird. Durch die festen Verbindungen der beiden Kabelenden werden die bei Schleifkontakten auftretenden Nachteile und Gefahren der Stromunterbrechung mit Sicherheit verhindert. Für das Kabel ist lediglich die an dem Tragegurt vorgesehene Führungsschiene erforderlich, so daß auch die bei Verwendung eines Schleppkabels notwendigen zusätzlichen Schutzeinrichtungen außerhalb des Tores sowie ggf. notwendige Auf- und Abwickeleinrichtungen für das Schleppkabel entfallen. Da das in der Steggliederkette unterzubringende Kabel einen relativ kleinen elektrisch leitenden Querschnitt für die Stromzuführung aufweisen kann, ist es möglich, eine relativ schmale Steggliederkette zu verwenden, so daß auch die Führungsschiene verhältnismäßig schmal ausgebildet werden kann und somit an dem Tragegurt des Tores kaum auffällig in Erscheinung tritt. Praktische Versuche haben gezeigt, daß eine Steggliederkette von 1,5 bis 2 cm Breite völlig für die Aufnahme des Stromführungskabels zu den Steuerungs-und Anzeigeeinrichtungen ausreicht, und daß die durch den Biegeradius des Kabels und der Kette bestimmte Höhe der Führungsschiene in einer Größenordnung von 12 bis 15 cr. völlig ausreicht. Versuche mit einem Seitenschiebetor und einer Führungsschiene in der vorgenannten Größenordnung haben gezeigt, daß selbst nach mehreren zehntausend Bewegungsspielen keinerlei Beeinträchtigung der Stromzuführung und auch keinerlei Beschädigung des Kabels erfolgt sind.The design provided according to the invention provides protected accommodation of the web link chain and the cable held therein, the bending radius of the cable being determined by the web link chain when the gate is actuated and can be adjusted by appropriate selection of the web link chain in such a way that the cable is overstressed by bending loads avoided and thus a power cut is prevented. The described design results in a fixed connection of one end of the cable to the power supply device of the post, while the other end is again firmly connected to the electrical lines running in the carrying strap. The fixed connections of the two cable ends reliably prevent the disadvantages and dangers of power interruption that occur with sliding contacts. For the cable, only the guide rail provided on the carrying strap is required, so that the additional protective devices necessary when using a trailing cable are also excluded half of the gate and any necessary winding and unwinding devices for the trailing cable are omitted. Since the cable to be accommodated in the web link chain can have a relatively small electrically conductive cross-section for the power supply, it is possible to use a relatively narrow web link chain, so that the guide rail can also be made relatively narrow and thus hardly noticeable on the shoulder strap of the door Appearance occurs. Practical tests have shown that a link chain with a width of 1.5 to 2 cm is completely sufficient to accommodate the power cable to the control and display devices, and that the height of the guide rail, determined by the bending radius of the cable and the chain, is of the order of 12 up to 15 cr. Experiments with a side sliding gate and a guide rail in the aforementioned order of magnitude have shown that even after several tens of thousands of games of movement there was no impairment of the power supply and no damage to the cable.

Zweckmäßig ist es, wenn die als Kastenprofil ausgebildete Führungsschiene den Längsschlitz in der torabgewandten Seitenwandung aufweist sowie durch einen mit seiner freien Längskante nach unten weisenden schürzenartigen elastisch verformbaren Dichtungsstreifen überdeckt ist. Das mit der Stromzuführungseinrichtung in dem Pfosten verbundene Ende des Kabels kann beispielsweise durch ein mit dem Pfosten verbundenes biegesteifes Rohr hindurchgeführt werden, welches sich von dem Pfosten durch den genannten Spalt bis zu dem gegenüber Längsbewegungen des Tores ortsfest in der Führungsschiene gehaltenen Ende der Energieführungskette erstreckt und mit diesem Ende fest verbunden ist.It is expedient if the guide rail designed as a box profile has the longitudinal slot in the side wall facing away from the door and is covered by an apron-like, elastically deformable sealing strip with its free longitudinal edge pointing downward. The end of the cable connected to the power supply device in the post can, for example, be passed through a rigid tube connected to the post, which extends from the post through said gap to the end of the energy guide chain which is held stationary in the guide rail with respect to longitudinal movements of the gate and is firmly connected to this end.

Bei einer anderen Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, daß die als Kastenprofil ausgebildete Führungsschiene den Längsschlitz in der nach unten weisenden Wandung aufweist, und daß in den Seitenwandungen der Führungsschiene mit dem Fenster in dem Tragegurt fluchtende Fenster vorgesehen sind, von denen das Fenster in der torabgewandten Seitenwandung mit einer lösbaren Abdeckung versehen ist.In another embodiment it is provided that the guide rail designed as a box profile extends longitudinally has slot in the downward-facing wall, and that in the side walls of the guide rail with the window in the riser window are provided, of which the window is provided in the side facing away from the gate with a removable cover.

Bei der Ausbildung des Tores mit dem Längsschlitz in der torabgewandten Seitenwandung der Führungsschiene ist das etwa tormittig angeordnete Fenster in der Wandung des Tragegurtes von außen durch den Längsschlitz zugänglich, so daß bei dieser Ausführung lediglich ein korrespondierendes Fenster in der torzugewandten Seitenwandung der Führungsschiene erforderlich ist. Wird dagegen gemäß der letztgenannten Ausführungsform der Längsschlitz in der nach unten weisenden Wandung der Führungsschiene vorgesehen, so ist es in der beschriebenen Weise erforderlich, entsprechende korrespondierende Fensteröffnungen in den beiden Seitenwandungen der Führungsschiene vorzusehen, damit das in dem Tragegurt vorgesehene Fenster für die Durchführung des Kabels zu den in dem Tragegurt befindlichen Leitungen von außen erreichbar ist.When the gate is formed with the longitudinal slot in the side wall of the guide rail facing away from the gate, the window, which is arranged approximately in the center of the wall of the carrying strap, is accessible from the outside through the longitudinal slot, so that in this embodiment only a corresponding window in the side wall of the guide rail facing the gate is required. If, on the other hand, the longitudinal slot is provided in the downward-facing wall of the guide rail in accordance with the latter embodiment, it is necessary in the manner described to provide corresponding corresponding window openings in the two side walls of the guide rail, so that the window provided in the carrying belt for the passage of the cable to the lines in the shoulder strap is accessible from the outside.

Besonders zweckmäßig ist es, wenn das gegenüber Längsbewegungen des Tores ortsfest gehaltene Ende der Kette an einem mit Rollen ausgerüsteten Wagen gehalten ist, welcher sich auf den Wandungen der Führungsschiene abstützt. Das andere Ende der Kette kann in unmittelbarer Nähe des Fensters in dem Tragegurt an der Wandung der Führungsschiene befestigt sein.It is particularly expedient if the end of the chain, which is held stationary with respect to longitudinal movements of the gate, is held on a carriage equipped with rollers, which is supported on the walls of the guide rail. The other end of the chain can be fastened to the wall of the guide rail in the carrying strap in the immediate vicinity of the window.

Show it:
  • 1 is a side view of a side sliding gate according to the invention,
  • 2 is an enlarged view of a section of the gate of FIG. 1 with a partial longitudinal section through the guide rail,
  • 3 shows a cross section through a first embodiment of the guide rail designed as a box profile,
  • Fig. 4 shows a cross section through another embodiment of the box-shaped guide rail.

Das in der Fig. 1 wiedergegebene Seitenschiebetor ist in dem dargestellten Beispiel als freitragendes Schiebetor ausgeführt, welches sich auf Rollenböcken 1 abstützt und zwischen zwei beiderseits des Tores im Erdreich verankerten ortsfesten Pfosten 2 geführt ist.The side sliding gate shown in FIG. 1 is designed in the example shown as a self-supporting sliding gate, which is supported on roller blocks 1 and is guided between two fixed posts 2 anchored in the ground on both sides of the gate.

Das Tor weist einen kastenförmigen Untergurt 3 auf, in welchem die elektrischen Leitungen für Steuerungs- und Anzeigeeinrichtungen vorgesehen sind, zu denen die in der Fig. 1 schematisch wiedergegebenen Blinkleuchten 4 gehören, welche im Untergurt 3 des Tores angeordnet sein können und bei einer Bewegung des Tores in Intervallen aufleuchten. Als Steuerungseinrichtungen können an dem Tor nach Fig. 1 auf Druck ansprechende oder ggf. auch berührungslose induktiv arbeitende Schalter in dem Torholm 5 vorgesehen sein, welche als Endschalter für die Schließbewegung und gleichzeitig zur Unfallverhütung beim Auffahren des Tores gegen ein Hindernis dienen können. Die Ausbildung und Anordnung derartiger Schalter ist an sich bekannt, so daß sie in der Fig. 1 nicht im einzelnen dargestellt sind.The gate has a box-shaped lower flange 3, in which the electrical lines are provided for control and display devices, to which the flashing lights 4 shown schematically in FIG. 1 belong, which can be arranged in the lower flange 3 of the gate and when the gate moves The gates light up at intervals. Control devices can be provided on the gate according to FIG. 1 that respond to pressure or, if appropriate, also contactless inductive switches in the gate bar 5, which can serve as limit switches for the closing movement and at the same time for preventing accidents when the gate is opened against an obstacle. The design and arrangement of such switches is known per se, so that they are not shown in detail in FIG. 1.

An einer Seite des unteren Tragegurtes 3 des Tores ist eine in Torlängsrichtung verlaufende, in Form eines Kastenprofils ausgebildete Führungsschiene 6 befestigt, die sich in dem dargestelltn Beispiel über die gesamte Länge des Torblattes erstreckt. Diese Führungsschiene umschließt einen rechteckigen Führungskanal, der zur Aufnahme einer in der Fig. 1 gestrichelt dargestellten Energieführungskette 7 in der Form einer Steggliederkette aus Kunststoff und wenigstens ein darin gehaltenes elektrisches Kabel dient.On one side of the lower carrying belt 3 of the door, a guide rail 6, which extends in the longitudinal direction of the door and is designed in the form of a box profile, is fastened and, in the example shown, extends over the entire length of the door leaf. This guide rail encloses a rectangular guide channel that leads to the took an energy chain 7 shown in dashed lines in FIG. 1 in the form of a web link chain made of plastic and at least one electrical cable held therein is used.

An dem Pfosten 2 ist eine Stromzuführungseinrichtung 8 vorgesehen, welche in Form eines Klemmenkastens ausgebildet sein kann und die über ein durch den Hohlpfosten 2 hindurchgeführtes Stromführungskabel 9 mit einer in der Zeichnung nicht wiedergegebenen Energiequelle verbunden ist.On the post 2, a power supply device 8 is provided, which can be designed in the form of a terminal box and which is connected to a power source (not shown in the drawing) via a power lead 9 which is passed through the hollow post 2.

Einzelheiten der Energieführungskatte 7 in der Anordnung nach Fig. 1 werden in Verbindung mit Fig. 2 beschrieben, welche in vergrößerter Darstellung einen Teillängsschnitt durch die Führungsschiene 6 wiedergibt in der Weise, daß die in Fig. 1 dem Beschauer zugewandte Seitenwand weggeschnitten ist.Details of the energy guiding mat 7 in the arrangement according to FIG. 1 are described in connection with FIG. 2, which shows an enlarged illustration of a partial longitudinal section through the guide rail 6 in such a way that the side wall facing the viewer in FIG. 1 is cut away.

Aus der Fig. 2 ist wiederum der ortsfeste Pfosten 2 für das Torblatt ersichtlich mit der als Klemmenkasten ausgebildeten Stromzuführungseinrichtung 8. Die Führungsschiene 6, welche in nicht näher dargestellter Weise mit der ihr zugekehrten Längswand des unteren Tragegurtes 3 fest verbunden ist, weist auf ihrer Unterseite gemäß der Darstellung des Querschnittes in Fig. 3 einen durchgehenden Längsschlitz 10 auf, durch den hindurch sich ein ortsfest gehaltenes mit der Stromzuführungseinrichtung 8 verbundenes Rohr 11 erstreckt, welches seinerseits mit einem als Wagen 12 ausgebildeten Endglied der Energieführungskette 7 fest verbunden ist. Durch das Rohr 11 hindurch erstreckt sich das mit der Stromzuführungseinrichtung 8 und in dieser Einrichtung mit dem Zuführungskabel 9 verbundene Kabel 15, welches durch die einzelnen Stegglieder der Energieführungskette 7 hindurchgeführt ist, so daß es von der Energieführungskette 7 in bekannter Weise umschlossen wird und in dieser Kette sicher gegen irgendwelche äußeren Einflüsse gehalten wird. Das als Wagen 12 ausgetildete Endglied der Energieführungskette ist gemäß den Fig. 2 und 3 mit Führungsrollen 13 und 14 ausgerüstet, die sich auf der Innenseite der Wandungen der Führungsschiene 6 abstützen, so daß der Wagen 12 bei einer Verschiebebewegung des Torblattes durch das ortsfest gehaltene Rohr 11 in seiner Position gehalten wird und keine großen Reibungskräfte zwischen dem Wagen 12 und der Führungsschiene 6 auftreten kennen.From Fig. 2, in turn, the fixed post 2 for the door leaf can be seen with the power supply device designed as a terminal box 8. The guide rail 6, which is firmly connected in a manner not shown with the longitudinal wall of the lower riser 3 facing it, has on its underside According to the representation of the cross section in FIG. 3, a continuous longitudinal slot 10, through which extends a tube 11, which is held in a fixed position and is connected to the power supply device 8 and which in turn is firmly connected to an end link of the energy chain 7 designed as a carriage 12. The cable 15 connected to the power supply device 8 and in this device to the supply cable 9 extends through the tube 11 and is guided through the individual web links of the energy guide chain 7, so that it is known from the energy guide chain 7 Way is enclosed and held securely in this chain against any external influences. 2 and 3 is equipped with guide rollers 13 and 14, which are supported on the inside of the walls of the guide rail 6, so that the carriage 12 during a sliding movement of the door leaf through the stationary tube 11 is held in position and no large frictional forces occur between the carriage 12 and the guide rail 6.

Das andere Ende der Energieführungskette 7 ist mit einem Endglied 16 an der rückwärtigen Wandung der Führungsschiene 6 befestigt, und zwar unmittelbar neben einem in der genannten Wandung der Führungsschiene und hiermit korrespondierend auch in der Wandung des Untergurtes 3 vorgesehenen Fenster 17, welches durch eine Deckplatte 18 abgedeckt ist. Durch die Abdeckung 18 und durch das Fenster 17 ist das in der Energieführungskette 7 gehaltene Kabel 15 hindurchgeführt und mit den in dem Untergurt 3 befindlichen elektrischen Leitungen für die Steuerungs- und Anzeigeeinrichtungen verbunden. Die Fensterabdeckung 18 kann dabei Teil eines Klemmkastens bilden, um das elektrische Kabel 15 mit den genannten elektrischen Leitungen in dem Untergurt 3 zu verbinden.The other end of the energy guide chain 7 is fastened with an end link 16 to the rear wall of the guide rail 6, directly next to a window 17 provided in the wall of the guide rail and correspondingly also in the wall of the lower flange 3, which is closed by a cover plate 18 is covered. The cable 15 held in the energy guide chain 7 is passed through the cover 18 and through the window 17 and connected to the electrical lines for the control and display devices located in the lower flange 3. The window cover 18 can form part of a terminal box in order to connect the electrical cable 15 to the aforementioned electrical lines in the lower flange 3.

Die Energieführungskette 7 bildet innerhalb der Führungsschiene 6 eine Schleife, welche sich entsprechend der Verschiebebewegung des Tores innerhalb der Führungsschiene jeweils verlagert.The energy guide chain 7 forms a loop within the guide rail 6, which is shifted in accordance with the sliding movement of the door within the guide rail.

Die Fensteröffnung 17 ist in dem dargestellten Beispiel etwa tormittig angeordnet und die Gesamtlänge der Energieführungskette 7 so bemessen, daß sie etwa der halben Torlänge entspricht. Dies ist die günstigste Ausführungsform, weil man hierdurch mit einer relativ kurzen Energieführungskette und somit auch mit einem relativ kurzen Kabel 15 für die Stromversorgung der Steuerungs- und Anzeigeeinrichtungen des Tores auskommt.In the example shown, the window opening 17 is arranged approximately in the center of the gate and the total length of the energy chain 7 is dimensioned such that it corresponds to approximately half the length of the gate. This is the cheapest embodiment because it allows a relatively short energy supply tion chain and thus also with a relatively short cable 15 for the power supply of the control and display devices of the gate.

Um die Anschlüsse des Kabels 15 mit den in dem tragenden Untergurt 3 installierten elektrischen Leitungen vornehmen bzw. im Störungsfall überprüfen zu können, ist es bei der Ausführung nach Fig. 1 bis 3 erforderlich, auch auf der in Fig. 1 dem Beschauer zugekehrten, also der torabgewandten Seite der Führungsschiene 6 ein Fenster mit einer lösbaren Abdeckung vorzusehen, wie es in Fig. 1 bei 19 angedeutet ist.In order to be able to make the connections of the cable 15 with the electrical lines installed in the supporting lower flange 3 or to check them in the event of a fault, it is necessary in the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3, also on the one facing the viewer in FIG. 1, that is to provide a window with a removable cover on the side of the guide rail 6 facing away from the gate, as indicated at 19 in FIG. 1.

Die Abmessungen der als Kastenprofil ausgebildeten Führungsschiene richten sich nach der Stärke und Biegsamkeit des Kabels 15. In Abhängigkeit hiervon ist die Energieführungskette zu wählen, die den Krümmungsradius der Schleife für die Zuführung des Kabels 15 bestimmt.The dimensions of the guide rail designed as a box profile depend on the strength and flexibility of the cable 15. Depending on this, the energy guide chain is to be selected, which determines the radius of curvature of the loop for feeding the cable 15.

Eine Ausführungsvariante der Führungsschiene 6 ist in Fig. 4 wiedergegeben. Bei dieser Ausbildung ist in der torabgewandten Seite der Führungsschiene ein Längsschlitz 20 vorgesehen, welcher durch einen schürzenartigen, elastisch verformbaren Dichtungsstreifen 21 abgedeckt ist. Durch diesen Führungsschlitz 20 erstreckt sich das hierzu etwas anders als in den Fig. 1 und 2 dargestellte Rohr 11, welches innerhalb der Führungsschiene 6 wiederum mit dem als Wagen ausgebildeten Endglied 12 der Energieführungskette 7 verbunden ist. In dem Beispiel der Fig. 4 läuft der Wagen 12 in einer oberen Kammer 22 der Führungsschiene 6. Bei dieser Ausführung ist das dem Wagen 12 zugeordnete Ende der Energieführungskette 7 hängend an dem Wagen so angeordnet, daß die Kette in dem Raum unterhalb der Kammer 22 zu liegen kommt. Es wird, mit anderen Worten, lediglich der Wagen 12 in der Kammer 22 gehalten und geführt, während sich die Kette in dem unterhalb dieser Kammer befindlichen Raum erstreckt und dort die bereits in Verbindung mit den Fig. 1 bis 3 genannte Schleife bildet, die sich bei einer Verschiebebewegung des Tores entsprechend verlagert.A variant of the guide rail 6 is shown in FIG. 4. In this embodiment, a longitudinal slot 20 is provided in the side of the guide rail facing away from the gate, which is covered by an apron-like, elastically deformable sealing strip 21. Through this guide slot 20 extends the pipe 11 shown somewhat differently than in FIGS. 1 and 2, which in turn is connected within the guide rail 6 to the end member 12 of the energy guide chain 7 designed as a carriage. In the example of FIG. 4, the carriage 12 runs in an upper chamber 22 of the guide rail 6. In this embodiment, the end of the energy guiding chain 7 associated with the carriage 12 is suspended from the carriage so that the chain in the space below the chamber 22 comes to rest. In other words, only the carriage 12 is held and guided in the chamber 22 while the chain is in the one below it Chamber located space extends and there forms the loop already mentioned in connection with FIGS. 1 to 3, which shifts accordingly when the gate moves.
