Definitions

  • the invention relates to a handle for a partition according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a beveled frame is provided which overlaps the edge of a shower tray or tub with the interposition of sealing strips.
  • Such a seal is not suitable for parts that can move against each other, especially since the frame part is attached to the base of the tub and the sealing strips would wear out quickly if they were moved repeatedly.
  • DE-U-8 712 557 describes a guide that allows reliable sliding guidance and sealing of displaceable door elements and their easy cleaning with little manufacturing and assembly effort.
  • the handling of such a device is not particularly convenient, however, since the user has to bend down to the outer edge of the tub in order to actuate a special slider.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a handle for this, which can be produced as economically as possible and is easy to assemble and operate. Another aim is that the cleaning and maintenance of the partition wall is facilitated by suitable design of the handle.
  • a handle for a partition for use in particular in shower or bathtub partitions with at least one along a tub edge, a running profile or the like.
  • Slidable door element which has a guide part projecting beyond the edge or the running profile, which is held there by a lockable and unlockable slide piece, after the unlocking of which the door element can be moved inwards away from the edge
  • the invention provides that the slide piece with the handle designed as a door element handle is functionally connected or in one piece.
  • This new design has the great advantage that a handle is now available which combines the functions of the handle and latch. Therefore it is possible to unlock and move the door element in a convenient user position as required or vice versa to fix and lock.
  • the double function of the handle requires minimal design and manufacturing effort.
  • the handle can be arranged parallel to a front bar of the door element and limited height displacement. As a result, it can be handled particularly conveniently.
  • it is according to claim 3 of an at least up to the height center of the door element and attached profile, spar or the like. educated. This simple structure allows a variety of configurations. Depending on whether the profile or the spar extends from the middle of the door element downwards or upwards, the locking and unlocking can be carried out either at the lower edge or an upper running profile of the partition.
  • the invention provides in claim 4 a further development, according to which the handle two profiles, spars or the like. has, which each extend from the lower or upper edge of the door element approximately to its center and are connected there with a coupling.
  • the coupling may have or form a sleeve in which the middle profile or spar ends are guided and held movably towards and away from one another.
  • the handle according to claim 6 can be locked in a spread position for the spars, in particular in that the coupling has a lock with which the or each profile or spar end guided therein can be fixed in at least two height positions, so that For example, the latch and release positions are set until the next actuation.
  • a arrester can be provided or combined with a safety device, for example with a child safety device, which in the conventional manner requires at least two different types of actuation before locking or unlocking can take place.
  • the coupling is designed in the manner of a turnbuckle, in that the coupling sleeve acts as a nut with opposite threads on the profile or spar ends. So if it is rotated, the profile or spar ends go apart or together, with a travel determined by the extent of the rotation.
  • the slide forms a latch which can be actuated by vertical movement of the door element handle.
  • the slider arranged at the end of the handle can have a contact part which, in the locked position, rests on the outside of the edge or running profile in a sliding manner.
  • the slider does not have to extend over the entire edge length of a door element width; rather, a single application is sufficient, e.g. in the area near a front bar of the door element.
  • the system part is a smooth roller that is freely rotatable on a thin axis in the slider. This results in particularly low friction and great ease of movement even during the locking and unlocking process.
  • the handle is hollow, for example tubular and is guided on a profile protruding from the front bar, which can be cross-web-shaped in cross section and can be encompassed on both sides by inner ribs in the handle tube.
  • the outer surface of the handle and / or the coupling is ergonomically designed, for example in the form of a wider handle and / or ribbed.
  • the outer surface of the handle and / or the coupling can be of a different surface quality than the outer surface of the other partition components. This not only affects handling, but can also contribute to an attractive aesthetic design.
  • each bolt formed by the handle end and / or each frame counterpart is designed uniformly so that the components can be used left and right or up and down as desired, which contributes significantly to simple manufacture and inexpensive storage.
  • partition or that door element which is adjacent to bearings which are attached to or near bottom and head rails can be pivoted about the axis formed by the spars. This makes it possible, particularly in conjunction with locking devices according to the type of claims 6 to 8, to pivot the partition wall or the relevant door element out of the displacement plane, which can be done with a suitable construction either outwards or inwards.
  • Yet another embodiment provides, according to claim 20, a bead web on the or each front bar, which latches when the door element is closed with an elastic slot seal which closes a chamber profile of the associated side rail on the front bar side.
  • a bead web on the or each front bar, which latches when the door element is closed with an elastic slot seal which closes a chamber profile of the associated side rail on the front bar side.
  • the chamber profile, slot seal and bead web preferably extend at least substantially over the entire height of the partition.
  • FIG. 1 shows a shower partition, generally designated 10, which consists of a partition 11 with a base 12 embedded in a wall niche.
  • a frame 14 is fastened to wall brackets 13 and has a bottom rail 15, two side rails 16, 17 and a head rail 18.
  • the latter contains a running profile (not designated here), on or in which door elements 20, 20 ', 20''are slidably arranged.
  • a corresponding running profile (19 in FIGS. 2 to 5c) is provided on the bottom rail 15, which sits on an edge R of the base 12 (FIGS. 1 and 2).
  • Each of the door elements has a front strip 27 and a pane 22 made of glass or plastic.
  • a guide part 24 can be seen slides along the bottom rail 15.
  • the two outer door elements 20, 20 ′′ are each provided with a handle 30 which is designed as a continuous handle tube and, in particular, assumes 33 guiding and locking functions at the lower end.
  • FIG. 2 A similar structure can be seen in FIG. 2.
  • the shower partition 10 shown there has two corner partitions 11 on a base 12.
  • the handles or handle tubes 30 are designed differently here in some cases.
  • the door elements 20 are each provided with a continuous handle tube 30 on a protruding longitudinal profile 28.
  • the wall-mounted door elements 20 ′′ each have two-part handles 30, which consist of a lower spar 41 and an upper spar 42 with a coupling 40 located between them.
  • Locking elements 45, 46 in the form of bearings are attached to the rails 15 and 18 at the top and bottom.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 The structure and function of a double spar handle 30 are shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. It can be seen that the middle ends 43, 44 of the two spars 41, 42 are held together by the coupling 40 designed as a sleeve. Fig. 3 shows an unlocked position, while a locking position is shown in Fig. 4. At the two outer ends (below and above), sliding pieces 35 engage in bearings 45 and 46, so that the handle 30 is fixed on the rails 15 and 18 and consequently the adjacent door element 20 '' is not displaced in the running profile 19 can be. With a suitable design, a rotary or pivoting movement about the bearings 45, 46 is possible if such should be desired or necessary.
  • the coupling 40 can be provided or connected with a lock (not shown) which holds the central ends 43, 44 of the bars 41, 42 in the unlocked position (FIG. 3) or in the locking position (FIG. 4).
  • a child safety device is expediently provided on such a lock, which requires a second actuation, so that the selected state is not inadvertently changed.
  • FIGS. 5a, 5b, 5c Three different positions are shown in FIGS. 5a, 5b, 5c. It can be seen that when the lower spar 41 is raised (FIG. 5a), the slide 35 is released from the running profile 19 of the bottom rail 15, so that the door element 20 '' is not only pushed away from the side rail 17, as shown, but also opposite the bottom rail 15 can be folded back inside the shower enclosure.
  • Fig. 5b shows a locking position in which the lowered spar 41 with its slider 35 engages over the running profile 19 of the floor rail 15, so that there is guidance along this and the door element 20 '' can be moved, but not folded back.
  • Fig. 5c shows a third possibility in Fig. 5c.
  • the slider 35 of the lowered lower spar 41 is engaged in the lower bearing 45.
  • the handle 30 thus has a fixed pivot bearing, as a result of which the door element 20 ′′ can be pivoted or swiveled inwards or outwards with suitable support.
  • the bearings 45, 46 can be arranged as required and attached to a side rail 16 or 17, for example. They form counterparts for locking with the slide 35 of the or each spar 41, 42. These counterparts, like the bolts themselves, are preferably of uniform design, so that they can be used optionally at the bottom or top and on the left or right of the frame 14.
  • the spar 41 has a tubular casing 31 which can be slid up and down on a crossbar profile 29 (FIG. 7) with inner ribs 32.
  • a closure element 34 which is preferably in one piece with the slider 35 or at least receives and holds it.
  • This has a contact part 36 in the form of a smooth roller, the thin axis 37 of which is arranged eccentrically in the slider 35.
  • this has an angled profile end 25 with a sliding roller 26 which, in the locked state (FIGS. 6 a and 7), faces the roller 36 of the sliding piece 35 beyond the running profile 19 of the bottom rail 15.
  • FIG. 8 has a chamber profile 48 on each of the side rails 16, 17, which is closed off by an elastic slot seal 49.
  • the associated front bar 27 of the relevant door element 20 ′′ or 20 is provided with a bead web 47, which enters the elastic slot seal 49 when it is closed and latches with it in a watertight manner. Unlocking is just as easy when opening.
  • the very simple construction saves conventional magnetic strips and can be easily combined with the handle 30 according to the invention.
  • Inner handles 50 '' and 50 are provided on the door elements 20 '' and 20, respectively, which allow actuation from the inside of the shower partition. It can be seen that these inner handles 50, 50 '' can be designed differently if necessary. The same also applies to the handle 30 itself, which is designed as a rounded triangular profile in the example of FIG. 8.
  • a guide part 24 provided thereon can be locked and unlocked by a slide 35 which is functionally connected or in one piece with the door element handle 30 .
  • This handle 30 is vertically displaceable to a limited extent and has, for example, two profiles, spars 41, 42 or the like, which are connected to a coupling sleeve 40 approximately in the middle of the height of the door element 20, 20 ′′.
  • the coupling sleeve 40 can move the two profile or spar ends 43, 44 towards and away from one another as a turnbuckle nut with opposing threads.
  • the slider 35 has a smooth roller 36 which, in the locking position, rests on the outside of the running profile 19 and which is opposed on the inside by a sliding roller 26 on the lower part of the door element.
  • the handle 30 can be tubular and can be guided with inner ribs 33 on a front strip profile 28.
