Definitions

  • the invention relates to a gate with a one-piece door leaf that is guided on both sides by means of rollers approximately vertically and / or horizontally extending guide rails and handlebar linkages movable overhead and is held with the aid of a spring device to counterbalance the weight, the door leaf with connecting elements directly on the masonry and / or can be attached to an existing frame.
  • the door types mentioned here are generally known as so-called single-leaf overhead doors and have a number of constructive designs which, depending on the space requirement, are guided in different ways within a room, in particular a garage, or outside this room.
  • a first type of door of this type is provided in the upper side edge regions of the door leaf with a roller, which rollers engage in guide rails which are guided horizontally into the garage.
  • a pivot axis is fixed to the frame for a two-armed lever, one end of which is articulated in the lower edge region of the door leaf and the other end of which acts on a weight compensation spring via a perforated band.
  • a second type of door leaf works with rollers arranged in its lower corner areas, which are guided approximately vertically, that is to say parallel to the frame, guide rails.
  • Another guide is that a handlebar is provided on each side of the door leaf, which is articulated with one end in the upper corner region of the frame and with its other end in the central height region of the door leaf.
  • rollers are provided in the lateral central height region of the door leaf, which run in vertical guides which extend approximately upstream from this central height region.
  • a handlebar is again provided, which is articulated in the area of the lower third of the door leaf as seen from the closed position and is pivotally mounted at the other end in the upper frame area.
  • Such a door leaf has a weight compensation device with torsion springs which extend approximately horizontally above the door opening to be closed and side drums arranged around a correspondingly extending axis, the cable end to be fastened to the door leaf acting approximately in the region of the rollers, in particular on their axes.
  • these rollers are arranged approximately in the middle area between half the height and the lower third of the door leaf (viewed in the closed state). Due to the position of the rollers, it is readily apparent that in the open state this "third area” and a little more of the door leaf protrude outwards like a protruding roof. It is an advantage, however, that the door leaf does not need as much interior space of the part of the building to be locked, e.g. garage, when transferring from the closed position to the opening position and vice versa, depending on the construction, less of this space than that of the door described above gate described above is the case.
  • the door leaves themselves can be designed identically for all of these gates. Only the attachment of the fittings or guide elements or the like then decides which of these three door types the door leaf is designed for.
  • DE-A-30 14 414 has an overhead door, in particular for garages, which has a door leaf, vertical side parts used for installation, guides and a linkage on which a spring is arranged to compensate for the weight of the door leaf.
  • the linkage has two variable-length, one-armed levers, one end of which is articulated on the door leaf in the upper region of the side parts and the other ends of which are articulated in length, the springs being two gas springs, one end of which is on the side part and the other ends of which are hinged to the lever.
  • a metal strip is provided between the upper corner areas of the door leaf and the respective guide rails pivoted into the parallel orientation to the door leaf, which has a suitable strip at both ends with the door leaf on the one hand and the guide rail on the other hand Screw device is set.
  • the lower cover plate is screwed onto the door leaf side area.
  • an angle plate is provided in the lower corner areas, where the spring hooks for attaching the weight compensation coil springs provided for this type of door are arranged, which connects the spring hook to the end of the respective lever on the door leaf side, in the direction of an offset movement parallel to the door leaf level and horizontal.
  • the door leaf engages behind the lower covers with spring-loaded latches that are operated centrally from the door handle.
  • the door leaf is held as it is by the frame or door opening reveal there, and the holes are drilled or dowels are placed, which are provided according to the function and dimensions provided by the door leaf transport after the pre-drilled openings in the frame-side fittings. Then the connections in the upper corner area between the door leaf and guide rail, the connection between the door leaf and the lower cover and the connection in the area of the spring hook are removed. After swiveling the guide rails approximately horizontally and fixing them there, the gate is ready for operation.
  • the vertical guide rails are already in the correct position, both for operation and for the transport position.
  • the approximately vertical guide rails extend parallel to the plane of the door leaf.
  • Two connections are sufficient here, one in upper and one in the lower corner area - of course on both sides of the door leaf.
  • the connection in the upper corner area between the door leaf and the associated vertical guide rail can take place in a similar manner, as has already been explained in connection with the first exemplary embodiment.
  • In the lower area it is sufficient to provide an aligned pair of bores from the guide rail in the lower roller holder bracket and to pass a screw through it.
  • the connecting screw is also initially provided, specifically in the lower region of the vertical guide rail, which is shorter at the bottom, and the bearing block for the roller arranged in this central region.
  • this third type of door which works with the torsion spring weight compensation device, work is carried out with the help of three "lost" elbows, in the correct assignment of the fittings, in particular also the holder, which will later be required when fixing to the frame or reveal the counterbalance spring shaft.
  • the upper part of the cover plate is fixed to the door leaf and thus pre-assembled, while here, as with the second type above, the existing lower cover or stop strips, which are fixed on the frame side, are supplied separately or held on any other parts of the transport unit.
  • the spring shaft device viewed in the direction of the door leaf thickness of the closed door leaf, is practically no larger than its extension or the width of the guide rails to be defined on the frame side. Since the cable of this spring compensation device acts on the roller and thus roughly seen in the central region of the door leaf, there is only a relatively small stroke distance, so that the diameter of the cable drums can be kept correspondingly small.
  • Figures 1 to 3 show a first embodiment with the door leaf 1, which is guided with upper rollers 2 in guide rails 3, which are in the transport state shown located approximately parallel to the plane of the door leaf 1 intended in the closed state and which are given away in the horizontal state in the use state. This is done with regard to the indicated bracket 4, which are used to fix the frame or reveal of the door opening, not shown.
  • a connecting piece 11 is provided which connects the guide rail 3 with the door leaf 1 in the transport position. This is done with the aid of a screw 12 in an existing opening of the guide rail 3 - for example for fixing it - and by means of a screw 13 which engages in the area of the holder 14 of the associated roller 2 or is screwed into a thread provided there.
  • a connecting piece 24 is screwed onto the associated spring hook by means of a screw 25 and ensures the appropriate, distance-appropriate mounting.
  • a screw 26 connects the lower cover strip to the door leaf at approximately half the height of the door leaf.
  • the door leaf 1 is fixed to the shaft holder 33 via a connecting piece 31, specifically by means of screws 32, as can be seen in FIG. 4.
  • the other holder end 44 which faces the cable drum 46, is connected to the door leaf 1, specifically by means of corresponding screws 45 and 47
  • the guide rail 48 is fixed on the roller holder 51 with the aid of a screw 49 and a spacer bush 50.
