Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an operating handle, in particular a window handle of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1.
  • Lockable or lockable handles are known for example from DE-U-8 624 544 and DE-U-8 514 560.
  • the assigned device e.g. a window gear, a lock nut or the like. rotated along.
  • a stop body, with which the handle is connected axially fixed, can have a latching device in order to determine preferred angular positions of the handle.
  • a zero degree locking position is conventionally given when the window handle is facing downwards; if it is placed horizontally, the window can be pivoted about its vertical axis, i.e. be opened. If only limited room ventilation is to take place, the window can be tilted around a horizontal axis by turning the handle upwards (to the 180 ° position).
  • Lockable window handles have been developed especially for rooms that need to be secured from the inside and can only be moved from the 0 ° position to the 90 ° position. This then corresponds to the tilt position of the window, which can be tilted for room ventilation without unlocking; but it remains closed. The window can then only be opened by operating personnel who have a key.
  • a handle of the type mentioned is described in DE-U-8 902 660. It has a coupling, the parts of which, when engaging, face end faces which slide towards one another, but the latter do not form any axial guidance for one another. Rather, a slide ring is provided for the axial guidance of the movable coupling element, which sits bluntly on a flared bushing; an annular bushing is not only axially spaced from the sliding ring, but also has enough radial play to the movable coupling part that its lower inner edge still passes the annular bushing even in the event of a tilt. As a result, safe functioning is not always guaranteed.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an actuating handle that meets these requirements and only allows the opening or tilting of a window provided with the handle when it is unlocked. Furthermore, the handle should be able to be quickly converted if a change of function is desired or required.
  • the invention provides according to claim 1 that the other coupling part of a locking sleeve which is held in a rotationally fixed manner on the stop body is formed, on or on which the locking ring is guided in an axially slidable manner.
  • the locking sleeve can sit according to claim 2 with contact surfaces in a holding member which is rigidly connectable or integral with the stop body, for example in the form of a reinforcing plate according to claim 3.
  • the lower end of the locking sleeve with the contact surfaces in the embodiment of claim 4 forms one Polygon, e.g. a square or octagonal, the height or axial extent of which is at least equal to the thickness of the reinforcing plate.
  • the one coupling part namely the locking ring
  • the one coupling part can have at least one axially directed nose which fits with minimal circumferential play between ears on the upper outer region of the other coupling part, ie the locking sleeve.
  • the engagement of the positive locking elements therefore takes place in one Circumferential area instead of a relatively large radius, so that a high rotational resistance is ensured in the locked state.
  • the coupling parts each have four form-locking elements diametrically opposite one another in pairs, in particular at angular intervals of 90 °, so that quadruple support with a correspondingly large section modulus is ensured.
  • the locking ring is axially guided with circumferential projections in a recess in the lower region of the handle head. This also contributes to the absorption of torques that prevent a violent handle adjustment in the locked state.
  • the locking ring is loaded by a compression spring which surrounds the locking sleeve and is supported at least indirectly - by a cover - on the stop body.
  • the handle is therefore usually locked, since the form-locking elements of the locking ring and locking sleeve are normally in engagement. Only when the locking unit is pressed down against the spring load do the coupling parts move apart, which releases the handle movement.
  • the locking unit is also loaded upwards by a support spring which surrounds the locking shaft in a stepped bore in the handle head and whose spring force is supported by that of the compression spring which presses the locking ring upwards.
  • the locking sleeve according to claim 11 can be rotatably arranged on a bearing bush of the stop body and on a spacer sleeve, the latter in turn supporting the handle neck. This concentric arrangement allows minimal bearing play with very little friction can be influenced advantageously by choosing different materials and / or permanent lubrication.
  • a push button is provided for actuating the locking unit, which extends beyond the handle in the locked state and enables unlocking by simple thumb pressure.
  • the invention further provides according to claim 13 that the locking unit is replaced by a lock unit that can be unlocked and unlocked by means of a key, or is combined with such a lock unit, so that handling offers even greater security in use.
  • a window handle generally designated 10 is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. It has a main part 11, a grip head 12 and a neck 14, in which there is an upwardly directed depression 15 for receiving components (described below). There is also a square hole 16 into which a square pin (not shown) can be inserted. Parallel to the axial direction A, but outside the axis of rotation of the handle 10, a locking unit 20 is inserted into the head 12, which with or against spring force can be moved axially parallel. In a stepped bore 18, a support spring 25 encloses a shaft 22 of the locking unit 20, on the collar 21 of which it rests at the top.
  • a slide or spacer ring 24 On the handle neck 14 is a slide or spacer ring 24, which can be designed as a brass sleeve.
  • a compression spring 26 supports a cover plate 28 which covers the upper side of a stop body 30 so that it can pivot.
  • finger depressions 34 are provided on the narrow sides of the stop body 30, which is rectangular in plan view.
  • the stop body 30 has cams 36 with screw holes 37 for attachment to a support structure (not shown), e.g. on the frame of a window.
  • the stop body 30 is in one piece with a centrally arranged bearing bush 31, in which the spacer sleeve 24 receives the handle neck 14. This is axially fixed, but rotatable, to the stop body 30 by means of a flared bushing 44.
  • a latching arrangement consisting of upwardly directed bottom latching depressions 38 and a bottom latching ring 40 cooperating with them. Comparable arrangements are in DE-OS 27 52 213 and in DE-GM 85 14 560.
  • the slide ring 24 is enclosed by a clutch K, which has a locking bush 46. It has flats 48 at the lower end, which protrude into a recess 58 of the same shape in a reinforcing plate 33, which is connected to the stop body 30 in a fixed position.
  • a locking ring 50 is slidably arranged on the locking bush 46. This has a radial extension 54 for attachment to the lower end of the locking shaft 22, e.g. by means of a screw 23.
  • a compression spring 26 surrounds the locking sleeve 46 and is supported on the one hand on the cover plate 28 and on the other hand on the underside of the locking ring 50.
  • FIG. 3a, 3b, 3c shows the two-part coupling K at a distance above the reinforcing plate 33, which has two countersunk screw holes 32 and the central recess 58, which has the same contour as the lower end of the locking sleeve 46.
  • Their flats 48 have at least the same axial extent or height as the reinforcing plate 33 or its thickness.
  • the locking sleeve 46 of FIG. 3a has two ears 49 at an angular distance of 90 °, which project radially outwards at the upper end.
  • FIG. 4a, 4b, 4c uses very similar coupling parts and a similar reinforcing plate 33.
  • the locking sleeve 46 has four identical, radially projecting ears 49. The circumferential gaps between them are just large enough that four lugs 52 of the locking ring 50 of the same shape can engage with essentially no play as soon as the locking ring 50 has reached the sleeve 46 (FIG. 1).
  • This so-called 4-point locking ensures a special high moment of resistance for the locked window handle 10.
  • Whose rotation relative to the stop body 30 is prevented by the fact that the lugs 52 of the locking ring 50 are positively engaged in the gaps between the ears 49 of the locking sleeve 46.
  • the pushbutton latch 20 is actuated, this positive locking is canceled, so that the window handle 10 can be pivoted with the main part 11 during the unlocking.
  • the torque applied in the locked state is transmitted from the handle 10/11 via the locking ring projections 58 guided in the handle head 12 and the lugs 52 to the ears 49 of the locking sleeve 46, the flats 48 of which are supported in the recess 58 of the reinforcing plate 33 in a rotationally fixed manner.
  • the latter is in turn embedded in the stop body 30 (FIGS. 1 and 2) in such a way that its cams 36 introduce all forces or moments into the window frame with the screw connection 37.
  • the locking unit 20 acts in any case as a so-called child safety device.
