Abstract

When a wing (1) is composed of plastic or aluminium sectional bars or at least its lower end consists of such a sectional bar and there is mounted so as to rest on it a fitting part carrying at least one running roller (6), by means of which it can be displaced along a fixed running rail (7), this leads to a lateral offset of the support point of the wing (1) relative to the vertical plane with the centre of gravity of the element. This gives rise, solely as a result of the weight of the wing (1), to forces which may warp or twist the lower transverse spar (4). So that the functional capacity of the fitting part (5) can nevertheless be guaranteed, according to the invention a reinforcing plate (14) is attached, for example screwed, to the underside of the lower wing transverse spar (4). The fitting part (5) is screwed at least partially to this reinforcing plate (14). Because the latter is located immediately behind the wing overlap (12) subjectable to comparatively little load, the reinforcing plate ensures not only in general a reinforcement of the profile cross-section, but also a firm support of the wing overlap. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen wenigstens schiebbaren Flügel eines Fensters, einer Tür od. dgl. mit mindestens einer Laufrolle einem Laufwagen, einem Laufschuh od. dgl. und einer zugehörigen Laufschiene, die insbesondere an einem festen Rahmen angebracht ist, wobei der Rahmen des Flügels mindestens an seinem unteren Ende aus einem Profil aus Aluminium, einem mit Aluminium vergleichbaren Metall einer Metallegierung oder aus Kunststoff besteht, ein die Laufrolle od. dgl. tragendes Beschlagteil an der Innenseite des Flügels aufliegend montiert ist, wobei im unteren Bereich des profilierten unteren Flügelrahmen-Querholms eine Verstärkungsplatte befestigt ist und das Beschlagteil mittels wenigstens eines Befestigungselements mit der Verstärkungsplatte verbunden ist. Wenn hier von einem "Aluminiumprofil" die Rede ist, so ist dies in weitestem Sinne zu verstehen, d.h. auch vergleichbare Metalle oder Metallegierungen können für dieses Profil oder den gesamten Rahmen selbstverständlich ebenfalls verwendet werden.The invention relates to an at least sliding wing of a window, a door or the like. With at least one roller, a carriage, a running shoe or the like. And an associated running track, which is in particular attached to a fixed frame, the frame of the wing at least at its lower end consists of a profile made of aluminum, a metal of a metal alloy or plastic comparable to aluminum, a fitting part carrying the roller or the like is mounted lying on the inside of the wing, with the lower area of the profiled lower wing frame Crossbar a reinforcing plate is attached and the fitting part is connected to the reinforcing plate by means of at least one fastening element. If we are talking about an "aluminum profile", this is to be understood in the broadest sense, ie comparable metals or metal alloys can of course also be used for this profile or the entire frame.

Falls man bei einem Rahmen eines Fensters oder einer Tür, vornehmlich aber beim Flügelrahmen, wenigstens für den unteren Rahmen-Querholm, in der Regel aber für den gesamten Rahmen, Profilstäbe aus Aluminium od. dgl. oder aus Kunststoff verwendet, wobei in aller Regel Hohlprofile infrage kommen, so ist zwar das einzelne Profil für sich relativ stabil, jedoch besteht der innere Flügelüberschlag, den man üblicherweise für die Anbringung eines Dichtungsstreifens benötigt, meist nur aus einem dünnen und damit nicht besonders hoch belastbaren Profilsteg. Wenn man gattungsgemäß das Beschlagteil mit der Laufrolle od. dgl. an der Innenseite des Flügels aufliegend montiert, so führt dies zu einem seitlichen Versatz der Laufrollenebene gegenüber der Ebene des Elementschwerpunkts. Die Folge ist ein zumindest aus dem Flügelgewicht herrührendes Moment, welches eine Biegebeanspruchungung am unteren Flügelquerholm, insbesondere aber am nach unter ragenden Flügelüberschlag, zur Folge hat. Eine Befestigung des Beschlagteils lediglich am Flügelüberschlag ist schon allein aus diesem Grunde nicht möglich.If one uses a frame of a window or a door, but primarily for the casement, at least for the lower frame cross member, but usually for the entire frame, profile bars made of aluminum or the like or made of plastic, usually hollow profiles come into question, the individual profile is relatively stable in itself, but the inner flap that is usually required for the attachment of a sealing strip usually consists only of a thin and therefore not particularly heavy-duty profile web. If one fits the fitting part with the roller or the like lying on the inside of the wing, this leads to a lateral offset of the roller level with respect to the plane of the element center of gravity. The result is a moment resulting at least from the weight of the wing, which results in bending stress on the lower cross member of the wing, but in particular on the wing overhang projecting below. For this reason alone, it is not possible to attach the fitting part only to the sash flap.

Hieraus ergibt sich, daß bei einem Flügel der in Frage stehenden Art bei der Befestigung des Beschlagteils grundsätzlich profilspezifische Gegebenheiten zu berücksichtigen sind. Bei derartigen Flügeln ist aber in der Regel unterhalb des unteren Flügelquerholm bzw. beim Vorhandensein eines festen Rahmens zwischen dem Flügel und letzterem ein Spaltraum vorhanden, der für die Aufnahme von Beschlagteilen verwendet werden kann, beispielsweise zum Unterbringen von Verschlußteilen im unteren waagerechten Bereich. Dieser Spaltraum ist bei schiebbaren Elementen in der Regel frei.It follows from this that, in the case of a wing of the type in question, profile-specific conditions must be taken into account when fastening the fitting part. In such sashes, however, there is usually a gap below the lower sash cross member or in the presence of a fixed frame between the sash and the latter, which can be used for receiving fittings, for example for Storage of locking parts in the lower horizontal area. This gap is usually free for sliding elements.

Aus der EP-0 312 738 A2 ist ein unten ausstellbarer Flügel eines Fensters, Tür od. dgl. gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 bekannt, der mit einem Laufwagen auf einer zugehörigen Laufschiene verfahrbar ist und bei dem ein den Laufwagen tragendes Beschlagteil an der Innenseite des Flügels aufliegend montiert ist. An der Unterseite des Rahmens ist ein Versteifungsteil befestigt und das Beschlagteil ist wenigstens mittels eines Befestigungselementes mit dem Versteifungsteil verbunden. Das Versteifungsteil ist an der Stulpschiene des Verschlusses befestigt.From EP-0 312 738 A2 a wing of a window, door or the like which can be opened at the bottom is known according to the preamble of claim 1, which can be moved with a carriage on an associated running rail and in which a fitting part carrying the carriage on the inside the wing is mounted on top. A stiffening part is attached to the underside of the frame and the fitting part is connected to the stiffening part at least by means of a fastening element. The stiffening part is attached to the faceplate of the lock.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht nun darin, einen Flügel der vorangenannten Art so weiterzubilden, daß bei Verwendung üblicher Profile aus Aluminium od. dgl. oder aus Kunststoff trotz der innen aufgesetzten Montage des Beschlagteils mit der Laufrolle od. dgl. auch bei größerem Flügelgewicht die Stabilität des Flügelrahmens gewährleistet ist.The object of the invention is to develop a wing of the aforementioned type so that when using conventional profiles made of aluminum or the like. Or made of plastic despite the internal mounting of the fitting part with the roller or the like. Even with a larger wing weight, the stability of the casement is guaranteed.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, daß der Flügel gem. dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 entsprechend dem kennzeichnenden Teil dieses Anspruchs ausgebildet ist. Die Größe der Verstärkungsplatte richtet sich vor allen Dingen nach dem vorhandenen Platz unterhalb des unteren Flügelquerholms bzw. im Spaltraum zwischen Flügel und Blendrahmen, sowie der notwendigen Versteifungswirkung. Die Verstärkungsplatte kann sich über die ganze Länge des betreffenden unteren Flügelquerholms erstrecken oder nur über den unmittelbar gefährdeten Bereich. Die Zahl der Befestigungselemente richtet sich nach der Größe der Verstärkungsplatte einerseits und der auftretenden Belastung andererseits. In bevorzugter Weise verwendet man Schrauben, Stehbolzen an der Verstärkungsplatte, Spannexzenter u. dgl. bekannte Befestigungselemente oder eine Kombination davon.To solve this problem, the invention proposes that the wing gem. the preamble of claim 1 is formed in accordance with the characterizing part of this claim. The size of the reinforcement plate depends primarily on the available space below the lower cross member or in Gap between sash and frame, as well as the necessary stiffening effect. The reinforcing plate can extend over the entire length of the lower wing cross member in question or only over the directly endangered area. The number of fasteners depends on the size of the reinforcing plate on the one hand and the load that occurs on the other. Preferably, screws, studs on the reinforcing plate, clamping eccentric and the like are used. Known fasteners or a combination thereof.

Zusätzliche Befestigungselemente, insbesondere Befestigungsschrauben, die nicht in die Verstärkungsplatte eingedreht werden, kann man unmittelbar in ein Gewinde des zugeordneten Profilstegs einschrauben oder aber unter Verwendung von Muttern bzw. mutterähnlichen Elementen, die entweder ausschließlich verwendet werden oder zur Verstärkung oder Verlängerung des Muttergewindes im betreffenden Steg dienen. Falls es sich um ein verstärktes Profil mit in eine Profilkammer eingeschobenem Verstärkungselement handelt, dreht man die weiteren Schrauben möglichst auch in ein dort angebrachtes Gewinde bzw. Verlängerungsgewinde ein.Additional fastening elements, in particular fastening screws, which are not screwed into the reinforcement plate, can be screwed directly into a thread of the assigned profile web or using nuts or nut-like elements, which are either used exclusively or serve to reinforce or lengthen the nut thread in the web in question. If it is a reinforced profile with a reinforcement element inserted into a profile chamber, the other screws should also be screwed into a thread or extension thread provided there if possible.

Weil das Beschlagteil zumindest mit einem Teil seiner Befestigungsschrauben an der Verstärkungsplatte angeschraubt wird, müssen die hierfür notwendigen Gewindebohrungen in ausreichender Zahl und Länge vorhanden sein und so angebracht werden, daß jeweils die Befestigungsschrauben für das Beschlagteil ohne Behinderung durch eine Befestigungsschraube für die Verstärkungsplatte vollständig eingedreht werden kann. Wie das Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt, ist es zweckmäßig, das Beschlagteil nicht nur an der Verstärkungsplatte, sondern, wie vorstehend ausgeführt, zusätzlich auch noch unmittelbar am Profil des unteren horizontalen Flügelquerholms anzuschrauben.Because the fitting part is screwed onto the reinforcement plate with at least some of its fastening screws, the threaded holes required for this must be available in sufficient numbers and lengths and must be installed in such a way that the fastening screws for the fitting part are fully screwed in without hindrance by a fastening screw for the reinforcement plate can. As the exemplary embodiment shows, it is expedient not only to screw the fitting part to the reinforcing plate, but also, as stated above, also directly to the profile of the lower horizontal wing cross member.

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß bei einem Rahmen mit Flügelüberschlag jede in die Verstärkungsplatte eingedrehte Befestigungsschraube eine Bohrung des Profilstegs durchsetzt, wobei es sich um keine mit Gewinde versehene Bohrung, sondern um eine Durchgangsbohrung handelt. Dadurch wird der betreffende, den Überschlag bildende Profilsteg von der belastenden Kraft freigehalten und außerdem erreicht man ein festes Anpressen des Beschlagteils an seine Anlagefläche.A further embodiment of the invention provides that, in the case of a frame with a wing overlap, each fastening screw screwed into the reinforcement plate passes through a bore in the profile web, which is not a threaded bore, but is a through hole. As a result, the relevant profile web forming the flap is kept free from the stressing force and, moreover, a firm pressing of the fitting part against its contact surface is achieved.

Eine Weiterbildung der Erfindung kennzeichnet sich dadurch, daß die Verstärkungsplatte in eine Profilnut des Flügel-Querholms eingreift. Solche Profilnuten sind in aller Regel vorhanden und sie ermöglichen die Verwendung einer zumindest in diesem Bereich dickeren Verstärkungsplatte. Einen sicheren Halt und eine optimale Ausnutzung des Nut-Profilquerschnitts erhält man in vorteilhafter Weise, wenn die Verstärkungsplatte einen profilierten Ansatz aufweist, mit welchem sie formschlüssig in der Profilnut entsprechendem Querschnitt gehalten ist. Nötigenfalls muß man zumindest an einer unteren Flügelecke für eine Möglichkeit zum Einschieben dieser Verstärkungsplatte in die Nut sorgen, wobei es sich gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel um eine sich nach außen verengende z.B. im Querschnitt T-förmige oder schwalbenschwanzförmige Nut handeln kann.A further development of the invention is characterized in that the reinforcing plate engages in a profile groove of the wing cross member. Such profile grooves are usually present and they allow the use of a reinforcing plate thicker at least in this area. A secure hold and optimal utilization of the groove profile cross section is advantageously obtained if the reinforcing plate has a profiled shoulder with which it is held in a positive manner in the profile groove of the corresponding cross section. If necessary, you have to provide at least on a lower wing corner for a possibility of inserting this reinforcing plate into the groove, which according to the embodiment is a constricting e.g. can act in cross-section T-shaped or dovetail-shaped groove.

Eine besonders bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung kennzeichnet sich dadurch, daß eine Halterung für die Laufrolle oder den Laufwagen od. dgl. über einen vertikalen Tragzapfen oder eine Drehachse mit dem am Profil anliegenden Befestigungsansatz des Beschlagteils verbunden ist. Eine derartige vertikale Drehachse ist insbesondere deshalb vorteilhaft, weil sie die Möglichkeit schafft, den Flügel nicht nur verschiebbar zu lagern, sondern auch parallel abzustellen. In diesem Falle ist dann in bekannter Weise zwischen die beiden Elemente des Beschlagteils ein beidendig drehbar gelagerter Ausstellarm geschaltet, wobei sich eine Drehachse am Laufwagen od. dgl. und die andere an dem unmittelbar am Flügel montierten Elements des Beschlags befindet. Vorteile ergeben sich in gleicher Weise bei einem Element einer Falttür, das durch derartige Laufrollen geführt ist. Beim Auffalten der Flügel sind die Verdrehungskräfte an der Anschraubplatte besonders hoch.A particularly preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that a holder for the roller or the carriage or the like is connected via a vertical support pin or an axis of rotation to the fastening attachment of the fitting part which bears against the profile. Such a vertical axis of rotation is particularly advantageous because it makes it possible not only to mount the sash, but also to park it in parallel. In this case, is then known Switched between the two elements of the fitting part, a pivot arm mounted on both ends, one axis of rotation on the carriage or the like and the other on the element of the fitting which is mounted directly on the sash. Advantages arise in the same way with an element of a folding door which is guided by such rollers. When the wings are unfolded, the torsional forces on the screw-on plate are particularly high.

Es ist besonders vorteilhaft, wenn der Tragzapfen mit einer Höhenverstellvorrichtung für den Flügel verbunden ist oder einen Teil der Höhenverstellvorrichtung bildet, so daß der Flügel mit Hilfe dieser Höhenverstellvorrichtung in vertikaler Richtung gegen die Maueröffnung bzw. den festen Rahmen ausgerichtet werden kann.It is particularly advantageous if the support pin is connected to a height adjustment device for the wing or forms part of the height adjustment device, so that the wing can be aligned with the aid of this height adjustment device in the vertical direction against the wall opening or the fixed frame.

Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Die Zeichnung zeigt ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand eines vertikalen Schnitts durch die unteren Querholme des Flügels und eines diesen aufnehmenden festen Rahmens.The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing. The drawing shows an embodiment of the invention based on a vertical section through the lower cross members of the wing and a fixed frame receiving this.

Der Flügel 1 ist in einem festen Rahmen 2 senkrecht zur Blattebene verschiebbar. An der Innenseite 3 des unteren Flügel-Querholms 4 ist ein Beschlagteil 5 anmontiert. Es ist mit wenigstens einer Laufrolle 6 ausgestattet, die auf einer Laufschiene 7 aufsitzt. Letztere kann an den unteren Querholm 8 des festen Rahmens 2 angeformt oder wie beim Ausführungsbeispiel, angeschraubt sein. Die Laufrolle oder Laufrollen ist bzw. sind an einem als Gehäuse 9 ausgebildeten Element des Beschlagteils 5 drehbar gelagert, wobei die Drehachse oder ein Lagerbolzen der eingezeichneten Drehachse mit 10 bezeichnet ist. Im Falle von mehreren Laufrollen handelt es sich beim Gehäuse 9 um einen Laufwagen.The wing 1 is displaceable in a fixed frame 2 perpendicular to the sheet plane. A fitting part 5 is mounted on the inside 3 of the lower wing cross member 4. It is equipped with at least one roller 6, which is seated on a running rail 7. The latter can be integrally formed on the lower cross member 8 of the fixed frame 2 or screwed on as in the exemplary embodiment. The roller or rollers is or are on a housing 9 trained element of the fitting part 5 rotatably supported, the axis of rotation or a bearing pin of the axis of rotation shown at 10. In the case of several rollers, the housing 9 is a carriage.

Zumindest die unteren Querholme 4 und 8 des Flügels 1 bzw. des festen Rahmens 2 bestehen in der Zeichnung aus Profilstäben, die gemäß der Darstellung ihrerseits aus einzelnen Profilstabelementen aufgebaut sein können. Als Material kommt Aluminium od. dgl. oder Kunststoff in Frage. Weil die Abstützebene des Flügels 1, welche etwa durch die Vertikalmittelebene der Laufrolle oder Laufrollen 6 bestimmt ist, gegenüber dem Elementschwerpunkt des Flügels seitlich - in der Zeichnung nach rechts - versetzt ist und der Flügel einen den Spaltraum 11 zwischen ihm und dem festen Rahmen 2 überbrückenden, beim unteren Flügelquerholm 4 nach unten ragenden Flügelüberschlag 12 aufweist, an welchem das Beschlagteil 5 zumindest teilweise anliegt, führt die Gewichtsbelastung zu einer Biege- bzw. Torsionsbelastung, insbesondere an dem lediglich stegartig ausgebildeten Flügelüberschlag 12. Letzterer ist, wie die Zeichnung zeigt, mit einer Aufnahmenut 13 zum Einsetzen eines Dichtelements ausgestattet, welches mit der gegenüberliegenden gegen das Rauminnere weisenden Fläche des Holms 8 zusammenwirkt.At least the lower cross bars 4 and 8 of the wing 1 and the fixed frame 2 consist in the drawing of profile bars, which in turn can be constructed from individual profile bar elements as shown. Aluminum or the like or plastic can be used as the material. Because the support plane of the wing 1, which is determined approximately by the vertical center plane of the roller or rollers 6, is laterally offset from the center of gravity of the wing - to the right in the drawing - and the wing bridges the gap 11 between it and the fixed frame 2 , the lower wing cross member 4 has a downward projecting wing overlap 12, against which the fitting part 5 at least partially rests, the weight load leads to a bending or torsional load, in particular on the wing-shaped wing overlap 12, the latter being, as the drawing shows, with a receiving groove 13 is equipped for inserting a sealing element which interacts with the opposite surface of the spar 8 pointing towards the interior of the room.

Um nun die Verbiegung, vor allen Dingen des Flügelüberschlags 12, zu vermeiden, ist erfindungsgemäß an der nach unten weisenden Seite des unteren Flügel-Querholms 4 eine Verstärkungsplatte 14 anmontiert. In bevorzugter Weise ist sie angeschraubt, wobei die Befestigungsschrauben mit 15 bezeichnet sind. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Befestigungsschrauben 15 jeweils in ein Gewinde 16 des Profilstegs 17 eingeschraubt. Falls notwendig, kann man zusätzlich oder alternativ Gewindehülsen 18 verwenden, wie sie bei der Befestigung des Profils mit der Laufschiene 7 vorgesehen sind.In order now to avoid bending, above all of the wing flap 12, according to the invention a reinforcing plate 14 is provided on the downward-facing side of the lower cross member 4 mounted. It is preferably screwed on, the fastening screws being denoted by 15. In the embodiment, the fastening screws 15 are each screwed into a thread 16 of the profile web 17. If necessary, one can additionally or alternatively use threaded sleeves 18, such as are provided when fastening the profile to the running rail 7.

Das Beschlagteil 5 ist mit Hilfe von Befestigungsschrauben 19 zumindest an die Verstärkungsplatte 14 angeschraubt. Zwischen beiden befindet sich der stegartige Flügelüberschlag 12. Er kann an den betreffenden Stellen mit einem Gewinde oder einer Durchtrittsbohrung 20 ausgestattet sein. Wegen der hohen Belastung, welcher der Flügel und das Beschlagteil 5 ausgesetzt sind, verwendet man noch zusätzliche Befestigungsschrauben 21, welche in Gewinde 22 des Profilstegs 23 eingedreht sind. An diesen Stellen kann man ebenfalls Verstärkungen vorsehen.The fitting part 5 is at least screwed to the reinforcing plate 14 with the aid of fastening screws 19. The web-like wing flap 12 is located between the two. It can be provided with a thread or a passage bore 20 at the relevant points. Because of the high load to which the sash and the fitting part 5 are exposed, additional fastening screws 21 are used, which are screwed into the thread 22 of the profile web 23. Reinforcements can also be provided at these points.

Durch eine gestrichelte Linie ist angedeutet, daß das Beschlagteil 5 eine Befestigungsplatte 24 aufweisen oder dort evtl. auch als solche ausgebildet sein kann. Ggf. kann man dort die Schraubenköpfe bzw. das betreffende Element des Beschlagteils 5 mittels einer Abdeckkappe überdecken.A dashed line indicates that the fitting part 5 has a mounting plate 24 or may also be designed there as such. Possibly. there you can cover the screw heads or the relevant element of the fitting part 5 by means of a cover cap.

Die Verstärkungsplatte 14 liegt beim Ausführungsbeispiel sowohl an der Unterseite des Profilstegs 17, als auch der Innenfläche des Flügelüberschlags 12 an. Der Querschnitt ist im wesentlichen rechteckig. In nicht dargestellter Weise kann man beim Vorhandensein einer Profilnut 25 die anliegende Seite der Verstärkungsplatte entsprechend gestalten, so daß ein Ansatz, insbesondere ein entsprechend dem Nutquerschnitt profilierter Ansatz in die Profilnut 25 eingreift. Die Befestigungsschrauben 15 für die Verstärkungsplatte 14 durchsetzen zweckmäßigerweise Durchgangsbohrungen 26, während für die Befestigungsschrauben 19 für das Beschlagteil 5 Gewindebohrungen 27 an der Verstärkungsplatte 14 vorgesehen sind.In the exemplary embodiment, the reinforcement plate 14 lies both on the underside of the profile web 17 and on the inner surface of the wing flap 12. The cross section is essentially rectangular. In a manner not shown, if a profile groove 25 is present, the adjacent side of the reinforcing plate can be designed accordingly, so that an attachment, in particular an attachment profiled according to the groove cross section, engages in the profile groove 25. The fastening screws 15 for the reinforcing plate 14 expediently pass through holes 26, while 5 threaded holes 27 are provided on the reinforcing plate 14 for the fastening screws 19 for the fitting part.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel besteht das Beschlagteil 5 im wesentlichen aus einer Halterung 28 für die Laufrolle bzw. das Gehäuse 9 oder einen Laufwagen und einem Befestigungsansatz 30, der unmittelbar an den unteren Flügel-Querholm 4 angeschraubt wird, wobei diese beiden Teile über einen Tragzapfen 29 oder eine Drehachse miteinander verbunden sind. Der Tragzapfen 29 kann mit einer Höhenverstellvorrichtung für den Flügel verbunden oder Teil einer solchen Höhenverstellvorrichtung sein.In the embodiment, the fitting part 5 consists essentially of a bracket 28 for the roller or the housing 9 or a carriage and a mounting boss 30 which is screwed directly to the lower cross member 4, these two parts via a support pin 29 or Axis of rotation are interconnected. The support pin 29 can be connected to a height adjustment device for the wing or be part of such a height adjustment device.
