Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Tor, welches zwischen einer Öffnungs- und einer Schließstellung geführt hin- und herbewegbar ist, mit einem Torblatt, einem Torblattpaneel oder dgl., welches zumindest eine bodenseitige Kante aufweist, die in der Schließstellung an einem bodenseitigen Anschlag, insbesondere einem Zargenholm oder dgl. anliegt.The invention relates to a gate, which can be moved back and forth between an open and a closed position, with a door leaf, a door leaf panel or the like, which has at least one bottom edge, which in the closed position has a bottom stop, in particular a frame spar or the like.

Bekannte Tore mit Torblättern dieser Art, insbesondere solche einstückiger Ausbildung als Überkopftor, schlagen in Schließrichtung je nach Betätigung verhältnismäßig heftig in ihre Schließstellung, wobei sie an eine bodenseitige Zargenerhebung mit ihrer Unterkante anschlagen. In diesem Bereich bestehen für Kleinkinder, aber auch für Erwachsene im Fußbereich erhebliche Quetschgefahren im Zusammenhang mit diesem Schließvorgang. Auch sind durch Verwehungen angesammelte Schmutzanhäufungen, Schnee und Eis für den Schließvorgang in diesem Zusammenhang hinderlich.Known gates with door leaves of this type, in particular such a one-piece design as overhead door, strike relatively violently into their closed position in the closing direction, depending on the actuation, and they strike a bottom-side frame elevation with their lower edge. In this area, there is considerable risk of crushing in connection with this closing process for small children, but also for adults in the foot area. Also accumulations of dirt, snow and ice accumulated by drifts are a hindrance to the closing process in this context.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gattungsgemäßes Tor oder dgl. derart auszubilden, daß im Schließweg des Torblattes angeordnete Gefahren und Behinderungen vermindert und insbesondere Quetschungen und ähnliche Verletzungen von im Schließweg des Torblattes befindlichen Personen verhindert werden.The invention is therefore based on the object of designing a generic gate or the like in such a way that arranged in the closing path of the door leaf Dangers and disabilities are reduced and in particular bruises and similar injuries to people in the closing path of the door leaf can be prevented.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgaben sieht bei einem gattungsgemäßen Tor vor, daß im Anschlagbereich zwischen der Kante des Torblattes und dem bodenseitigen Anschlag in der Schließstellung des Torblattes eine Ausnehmung quetschmindernder Ausbildung vorgesehen ist, so daß die in Schließrichtung aufeinander zu bewegten Flächen bzw. Kanten in der Schließstellung des Torblattes beabstandet zueinander angeordnet sind.The solution to these tasks provides for a generic gate that in the stop area between the edge of the door leaf and the bottom stop in the closed position of the door leaf, a recess is provided to reduce squeezing, so that the surfaces or edges moving towards each other in the closed position in the closed position of the door leaf are spaced apart.

Bei einem derart ausgebildeten Tor wird das Torblatt in an sich bekannter Weise, bspw. bei einem Überkopftor von oben nach unten in seine Schließstellung überführt. In dieser Schließstellung sind die Kante des Torblattes und der bodenseitige Anschlag mit Abstand zueinander angeordnet, wobei dieser Abstand durch eine Ausnehmung quetschmindernder Ausbildung erzielt wird. Durch diese Ausnehmung werden insbesondere Quetschungen und ähnliche Verletzungen von im Schließweg des Tores befindlichen Personen, insbesondere im Fußbereich vermindert bzw. verhindert. Darüberhinaus kann das Torblatt auch dann in einfacher Weise geschlossen werden, wenn im Schließweg durch Verwehungen angesammelte Schmutzanhäufungen, Schnee und Eis in bestimmtem Maße angeordnet sind.In the case of a door designed in this way, the door leaf is transferred from top to bottom into its closed position in a manner known per se, for example in the case of an overhead door. In this closed position, the edge of the door leaf and the bottom stop are arranged at a distance from one another, this distance being achieved by a recess which reduces the amount of squeeze. This recess in particular prevents or prevents crushing and similar injuries to persons in the closing path of the door, in particular in the foot area. In addition, the door leaf can also be closed in a simple manner if accumulations of dirt, snow and ice collected by drifts are arranged to a certain extent in the closing path.

Nach einer ersten Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Tores ist vorgesehen, daß die Ausnehmung als Abschrägung am bodenseitigen Anschlag des Torblattes ausgebildet ist. Bei dieser Ausbildung ist es insbesondere vorteilhaft, daß ein derartig ausgebildetes Tor mit üblicherweise verwendeten bodenseitig angeordneten Zargen kombinierbar ist, so daß eine nachträgliche Ausstattung bereits bestehender Tore mit einem entsprechenden bodenseitigen Anschlag am Torblatt möglich ist.According to a first further development of the door according to the invention, it is provided that the recess is designed as a bevel on the bottom stop of the door leaf. In this embodiment, it is particularly advantageous that a gate designed in this way can be combined with frames which are usually used on the bottom, so that it is possible to retrofit existing gates with a corresponding bottom stop on the door leaf.

Eine alternative Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß die Ausnehmung als Abschrägung am Zargenprofil ausgebildet ist. Diese Ausbildung eignet sich insbesondere bei der Neuaustattung von Toren, bei denen von vorne herein eine entsprechende Ausbildung des Zargenprofils im Bodenbereich der Toreinfahrt vorgesehen werden kann.An alternative embodiment of the invention provides that the recess is designed as a bevel on the frame profile. This training is particularly suitable for the refitting of gates, in which a corresponding design of the frame profile can be provided in the floor area of the gate entrance from the outset.

Eine weitere Verminderung der Verletzungsgefahren wird bei den voranstehend geschilderten Ausbildungsformen des erfindungsgemäßen Tores dadurch erzielt, daß die Ausnehmung als Abrundung ausgebildet ist, so daß ein zwischen bodenseitigem Anschlag und Zargenprofil angeordneter Gegenstand beim Überführen des Torblattes in die Schließstellung über die Abrundung weggeschoben werden kann.A further reduction in the risk of injury is achieved in the above-described embodiments of the door according to the invention in that the recess is designed as a rounding, so that an object arranged between the bottom-side stop and the frame profile can be pushed over the rounding when the door leaf is moved into the closed position.

Es hat sich als besonders vorteilhaft erwiesen, die Abschrägung unter einem Winkel von 30° bis 60°, vorzugsweise von 45° zur Flächennormalen des Torblattes anzuordnen. Bei einer derartigen Abschrägung ist einerseits eine gute Verminderung der Verletzungsgefahr durch ein sich schließendes Tor erzielbar und andererseits weist ein mit einer derartigen Abschrägung ausgebildeter bodenseitiger Anschlag eines Torblattes eine ausreichende Festigkeit auf, die die Anordnung eines Schließelementes, wie bspw. einer Klinke ermöglicht. Ferner wird ein weiterer Vorteil dadurch erzielt, daß die Abschrägung Übergangsradien von vorzugsweise 5 mm Radius aufweist.It has proven to be particularly advantageous to arrange the bevel at an angle of 30 ° to 60 °, preferably 45 °, to the surface normal of the door leaf. With such a bevel, a good reduction in the risk of injury from a closing door can be achieved on the one hand, and on the other hand, a bottom stop of a door leaf designed with such a bevel has sufficient strength that enables the arrangement of a closing element, such as a latch. Furthermore, a further advantage is achieved in that the bevel has transition radii of preferably 5 mm radius.

Eine Verbesserung der Abdichtung eines erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Tores wird in vorteilhafter Weise dadurch erzielt, daß in die Ausnehmung eine nachgiebige Profilleiste aus insbesondere einem weichen Elastomer angeordnet ist. Eine derartige Profilleiste kann sowohl als Vollprofil aus Weichgummi als auch als Hohlprofil aus Gummi ausgebildet sein.An improvement in the sealing of a door designed according to the invention is advantageously achieved in that a resilient profile strip made of, in particular, a soft elastomer is arranged in the recess. Such a profile strip can be designed both as a full profile made of soft rubber and as a hollow profile made of rubber.

Die Befestigung der Profilleiste erfolgt vorzugsweise in torblattseitig angeordneten Ausnehmungen, wobei die Profilleiste vorzugsweise hinterschnittene Öffnungen hat, in die schwalbenschwanzförmige Befestigungselemente der Profilleiste einsteckbar sind.The profile strip is preferably fastened in recesses arranged on the door leaf side, the profile strip preferably being undercut Has openings into which dovetail-shaped fastening elements of the profile strip can be inserted.

Eine alternative Befestigung der Profilleiste erfolgt dadurch, daß die Profilleiste über eine Klammer am bodenseitigen Anschlag des Torblattes befestigt ist. Hierbei wird bspw. die Klammer auf den bodenseitigen Anschlag des Torblattes aufgesteckt, wonach anschließend die Profilleiste auf entsprechende Befestigungselemente der Klammer aufgesteckt oder aufgeschoben wird. Die Klammer ist bei dieser Ausgestaltung vorzugsweise federelastisch und im Querschnitt C-förmig ausgebildet, so daß sie in einfacher Weise auf ein im wesentlichen mit rechteckigem Querschnitt ausgebildeten Profilstück des bodenseitigen Anschlages des Torblattes aufklemmbar ist.An alternative fastening of the profile strip is achieved in that the profile strip is fastened to the bottom stop of the door leaf by means of a clip. In this case, for example, the clip is pushed onto the bottom stop of the door leaf, after which the profile strip is then pushed or pushed onto corresponding fastening elements of the clip. In this embodiment, the clip is preferably resilient and C-shaped in cross section, so that it can be clamped in a simple manner onto a profile piece of the bottom-side stop of the door leaf which is essentially of rectangular cross section.

Es ist nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung vorgesehen, daß die Profilleiste aus einem Elastomer besteht, welcher in Richtung parallel zur Flächennormalen des Torblattes unterschiedliche Härtegrade aufweist. Bei dieser Ausbildung ist die Profilleiste in den dem bodenseitigen Anschlag, nämlich dem Zargenholm zugewandten Bereich weicher ausgebildet, als in dem dem Zargenholm abgewandten Bereich, so daß einerseits die Verletzungsgefahren zwischen Zargenholm und bodenseitiger Kante des Torblattes durch die weiche Ausbildung der Profilleiste gemindert und andererseits die Befestigung der Profilleiste an der bodenseitigen Kante des Torblattes durch ein hartes Elastomer verbessert wird.It is provided according to a further feature of the invention that the profile strip consists of an elastomer which has different degrees of hardness in the direction parallel to the surface normal of the door leaf. In this embodiment, the profile strip is softer in the area facing the bottom stop, namely the frame spar, than in the area facing away from the frame spar, so that on the one hand the risk of injury between the frame spar and the bottom edge of the door leaf is reduced by the soft design of the profile bar and on the other hand the Attachment of the profile strip to the bottom edge of the door leaf is improved by a hard elastomer.

Weitere Befestigungsmöglichkeiten der Profilleiste an dem bodenseitigen Anschlag des Torblattes sind Verschraubungen, Vernietungen und Verklebungen.Other options for fastening the profile strip to the bottom stop of the door leaf are screwing, riveting and gluing.

Eine weitere Verbesserung der Abdichtung des Torblattes gegenüber dem Zargenholm sowie eine weitere Verbesserung der Verminderung der Unfallgefahr wird dadurch erzielt, daß die Profilleiste den bodenseitigen Anschlag des Torblattes ummantelt. Demzufolge ist die Profilleiste nicht nur im Bereich der zwischen der Kante des Torblattes und dem bodenseitigen Anschlag angeordneten Ausnehmung vorhanden, sondern auch an der bodenseitigen Unterkante des Torblattes sowie an der dem Zargenholm abgewandten Kante des Torblattes.A further improvement in the sealing of the door leaf with respect to the frame spar as well as a further improvement in the reduction of the risk of accidents is achieved in that the profiled strip covers the bottom Shrouded door leaf stop. Accordingly, the profile strip is not only present in the region of the recess arranged between the edge of the door leaf and the bottom stop, but also on the bottom bottom edge of the door leaf and on the edge of the door leaf facing away from the frame rail.

Bei einem erfindungsgemäßen Tor mit einem elektrischen, elektrohydraulischen oder elektropneumatischen Antrieb ist vorgesehen, daß in der Schließkante des Torblattes ein Messaufnehmer zur Bestimmung der Schließkraft angeordnet ist, welcher mit einem Messinstrument verbunden ist, wobei der Messaufnehmer die Bewegung des Torblattes bei Überschreiten eines Schließkraftgrenzwertes unterbricht. Bei einem derart ausgebildeten Tor ist ein weiteres Sicherheitselement, nämlich die Kombination aus einem Messaufnehmer und einem Messinstrument vorgesehen, welches die Bewegung des Torblattes bei Überschreiten eines Schließkraftgrenzwertes unterbricht. Ein derartiges Überschreiten des Schließkraftgrenzwertes ist bspw. dann gegeben, wenn zwischen dem bodenseitigen Anschlag und der Kante des Torblattes eine Behinderung in Form eines Gegenstandes oder eines Körperteils einer Person vorhanden ist. In diesem Fall gibt der Messaufnehmer einen Schließkraftwert an das Messinstrument, welcher über dem eingestellten Schließkraftgrenzwert liegt, so daß das Messinstrument den Antrieb des Torblattes abschaltet. Derartige Antriebe sind an sich bekannt und können elektrisch, elektrohydraulisch oder elektropneumatisch ausgebildet sein. Es ist aber auch denkbar, daß ein manuell zu betätigendes Tor bei Überschreiten des Schließkraftgrenzwertes über eine Sperreinrichtung gesperrt wird, welche von dem Messinstrument angesteuert wird.In a door according to the invention with an electrical, electrohydraulic or electropneumatic drive, it is provided that a measuring sensor for determining the closing force is arranged in the closing edge of the door leaf, which sensor is connected to a measuring instrument, the measuring sensor interrupting the movement of the door leaf when a closing force limit value is exceeded. In the case of a door designed in this way, a further security element, namely the combination of a measuring sensor and a measuring instrument, is provided, which interrupts the movement of the door leaf when a closing force limit value is exceeded. Such a exceeding of the closing force limit value is given, for example, if there is a handicap in the form of an object or a body part of a person between the bottom stop and the edge of the door leaf. In this case, the sensor sends a closing force value to the measuring instrument which is above the set closing force limit value, so that the measuring instrument switches off the drive of the door leaf. Such drives are known per se and can be of electrical, electrohydraulic or electropneumatic design. However, it is also conceivable that a manually operated gate is blocked when the closing force limit value is exceeded via a locking device which is controlled by the measuring instrument.

Schließlich ist es bei der vorstehend beschriebenen Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Tores vorgesehen, daß die Messung der Schließkraft in einer bestimmten Stellung des Torblattes erfolgt. Hierbei hat es sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, die Schließkraft in einer Stellung eines Überkopftores zu messen, in der die bodenseitige Kante des Torblattes ungefähr 300 mm vom Boden entfernt ist.Finally, in the embodiment of the door according to the invention described above, it is provided that the closing force is measured in a specific position of the door leaf. Here, it has proven advantageous to have the closing force in one position an overhead door in which the bottom edge of the door leaf is approximately 300 mm from the floor.

sectional side views of a gate in the closed position with differently designed flexible profile strips.

Ein einteiliges, als Schwingtor ausgebildetes, in Figur 1 dargestelltes Torblatt 1 hat einen als Hohlprofil ausgebildeten Rahmen 2 mit einer bodenseitigen Kante 3, die in der Schließstellung I des Tores mit einem bodenseitigen Zargenholm 4 zusammenwirkt, um die nicht dargestellte Gebäudeöffnung zu verschließen. In der Figur 1 ist das Torblatt 1 in drei Stellungen entlang einer Öffnungskurve 5 dargestellt, wobei die Schließstellung I mit dem Bezugszeichen 1 und die zwischen der Schließstellung I und der nicht dargestellten Öffnungsstellung liegenden Stellungen des Torblattes 1 mit den Bezugszeichen II und III gekennzeichnet sind.A one-piece, as a swing gate, shown in Figure 1 door leaf 1 has a hollow profile frame 2 with a bottom edge 3, which cooperates in the closed position I of the door with a bottom frame 4 to close the building opening, not shown. In FIG. 1, the door leaf 1 is shown in three positions along an opening curve 5, the closed position I being identified by the reference symbol 1 and the positions of the door leaf 1 lying between the closed position I and the opening position (not shown) being identified by the reference symbols II and III.

Der Rahmen 2 weist an seiner Kante 3 eine Abschrägung 6 auf, die in der Schließstellung I zusammen mit dem Zargenholm 4 eine Ausnehmung 7 quetschmindernder Ausbildung bildet, so daß die entlang der Öffnungskurve 5 aufeinander zu bewegten Flächen bzw. Kanten 3 in der Schließstellung 1 des Torblattes 1 beabstandes zueinander angeordnet sind. Die Abschrägung 6 verläuft unter einem Winkel von 45° zur Flächennormalen des Torblattes 1 und hat an ihren in die Kante 3 und eine Unterseite 8 des Rahmens 2 übergehende Bereiche Abrundungen, deren Übergangsradien einen Radius von 5 mm haben.The frame 2 has a bevel 6 on its edge 3, which in the closed position I forms a recess 7 with the frame spar 4 to reduce squeezing, so that the surfaces or edges 3 moving towards each other along the opening curve 5 in the closed position 1 of the Door leaf 1 are spaced from each other. The bevel 6 extends at an angle of 45 ° to the surface normal of the door leaf 1 and has at its edge 3 and a bottom 8 of the frame 2 merging areas rounded, the transition radii have a radius of 5 mm.

Auf die Abschrägung 6 ist eine nachgiebige Profilleiste 9 aufgebracht, die in der Schließstellung 1 an der parallel zum Torblatt 1 verlaufenden Fläche des Zargenholms 4 dichtend anliegt. Verschiedene Befestigungsmöglichkeiten der Profilleiste 9 am Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 werden nachfolgend bezugnehmend auf die Figuren 2 bis 9 beschrieben.On the bevel 6, a resilient profile strip 9 is applied, which, in the closed position 1, bears sealingly on the surface of the frame 4 that runs parallel to the door leaf 1. Various attachment options for the profile bar 9 on the frame 2 of the door leaf 1 are described below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 9.

In den Figuren 2 bis 9 ist jeweils ein Torblatt 1 mit in seinem oberen und unteren Bereich angeordneten Rahmen 2 dargestellt. Das Torblatt 1 ist Bestandteil eines Überkopftores, welches in einem mauerseitig befestigten Zargenrahmen geführt ist, wobei in den Figuren 2 bis 9 ein oberer Zargenholm 10 des Zargenrahmens dargestellt ist.FIGS. 2 to 9 each show a door leaf 1 with a frame 2 arranged in its upper and lower region. The door leaf 1 is part of an overhead door which is guided in a frame frame fastened to the wall, an upper frame spar 10 of the frame frame being shown in FIGS. 2 to 9.

Bodenseitig ist in den Figuren 2 bis 9 der, einen bodenseitigen Anschlag bildende Zargenholm 4 zu erkennen, der im Bereich einer Bodenkante 11 fest mit dem Boden 12 verbunden ist.On the bottom side in FIGS. 2 to 9, the frame spar 4 forming a bottom stop can be seen, which is firmly connected to the bottom 12 in the area of a bottom edge 11.

Wie bereits in der Figur 1 dargestellt, weist der Rahmen 2 an seiner dem Zargenholm 4 in der Schließstellung 1 zugewandten Kante 3 eine Profilleiste 9 auf, die in Figur 2 als Hohlleiste aus Gummi ausgebildet ist. In den Figuren 2 bis 9 ist der untere Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 mit einem rechteckig ausgebildeten Querschnitt dargestellt, da durch die Ausbildung des Tores mit einem, eine Profilleiste 9 im Bereich des unteren Rahmens 2 tragenden Torblattes 1 ebenfalls eine Quetschverletzungen vermindernde Ausbildung des Tores erzielbar ist.As already shown in FIG. 1, the frame 2 has a profile strip 9 on its edge 3 facing the frame member 4 in the closed position 1, which is formed in FIG. 2 as a hollow strip made of rubber. In Figures 2 to 9, the lower frame 2 of the door leaf 1 is shown with a rectangular cross-section, since by forming the door with a door leaf 1 carrying a profile bar 9 in the area of the lower frame 2, a pinch injury-reducing design of the door can also be achieved is.

Es ist erkennbar, daß die in Figur 2 dargestellte Profilleiste 9 im Querschnitt im wesentlichen C-förmig ausgebildet ist und auf den Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 klemmend aufgeschoben ist. Die Klemmfunktion wird dadurch erzielt, daß die Profilleiste 9 vor ihrer Montage derart ausgebildet ist, daß die beiden freien Enden 13 und 14 der Profilleiste 9 in unmittelbarer Nähe zueinander liegen.It can be seen that the profile strip 9 shown in FIG. 2 is essentially C-shaped in cross section and is pushed onto the frame 2 of the door leaf 1 in a clamping manner. The clamping function is achieved in that the profile strip 9 is formed in this way before it is installed is that the two free ends 13 and 14 of the profile bar 9 are in close proximity to each other.

Zur Versteifung der Profilleiste 9 in vertretbarem Maße, d.h. in einem Maße, welches einen ausreichenden Schutz gegen Quetschverletzungen bietet, weist die Profilleiste 9 in ihrem Hohlraum 15 mehrere Aussteifungsstege 16 auf.To stiffen the profile bar 9 to an acceptable extent, i.e. To a degree that offers adequate protection against crush injuries, the profile strip 9 has a plurality of stiffening webs 16 in its cavity 15.

In der Figur 3 ist eine alternative Ausgestaltung der Profilleiste 9 dargestellt. Hierbei handelt es sich um eine Profilleiste 9, die als Vollprofil aus Weichgummi ausgebildet ist. Die Profilleiste 9 gemäß Figur 3 hat geometrisch gesehen die gleiche Form, wie die Profilleiste 9 gemäß Figur 2 und wird in der voranstehend, bezugnehmend auf Figur 2 beschriebenen Weise auf dem Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 befestigt.An alternative embodiment of the profile strip 9 is shown in FIG. This is a profile strip 9, which is designed as a full profile made of soft rubber. Geometrically, the profile bar 9 according to FIG. 3 has the same shape as the profile bar 9 according to FIG. 2 and is fastened to the frame 2 of the door leaf 1 in the manner described above with reference to FIG.

Eine alternative Befestigung der Profilleiste 9 gemäß Figur 3 ist in der Figur 4 dargestellt, wonach die Profilleiste 9 mit mehreren Schrauben 17 mit dem Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 verschraubt sind. Hierbei werden vorzugsweise mehrere Schrauben 17 derart zueinander angeordnet, daß ihre Längsachsen rechtwinklig zueinander verlaufen, wobei erste Schrauben 17 in entsprechende Öffnungen in der Unterseite 8 des Rahmens 2 und zweite Schrauben 17 in entsprechende Öffnungen in der Kante 3 des Rahmens 2 eingeschraubt sind.An alternative fastening of the profile bar 9 according to FIG. 3 is shown in FIG. 4, after which the profile bar 9 is screwed to the frame 2 of the door leaf 1 with a plurality of screws 17. Here, a plurality of screws 17 are preferably arranged with respect to one another such that their longitudinal axes run at right angles to one another, first screws 17 being screwed into corresponding openings in the underside 8 of the frame 2 and second screws 17 being screwed into corresponding openings in the edge 3 of the frame 2.

Eine weitere alternative Befestigungsmöglichkeit der Profilleiste 9 auf dem Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 ist in Figur 5 dargestellt. Hierbei ist auf den Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 eine aus Federstahl ausgebildete Klammer 18 derart aufgesetzt, daß sie die Kante 3 des Rahmens 2 übergreift. Hierzu weist die Klammer 18, welche im Querschnitt im wesentlichen U-förmig ausgebildet ist, zwei federelastische Schenke 19 auf, die an ihren freien Enden hakenförmig aufgebogen sind. Auf die aufgesetzte Klammer 18 ist anschließend die Profilleiste 9 aufgeschoben, wobei die Profilleiste 9 Ausnehmungen 20 hat, die mit den hakenförmig aufgebogenen freien Enden der Schenkel 19 der Klammer 18 korrespondieren.Another alternative fastening option for the profile strip 9 on the frame 2 of the door leaf 1 is shown in FIG. Here, a bracket 18 made of spring steel is placed on the frame 2 of the door leaf 1 in such a way that it overlaps the edge 3 of the frame 2. For this purpose, the clip 18, which is essentially U-shaped in cross section, has two resilient legs 19 which are bent open at their free ends in a hook shape. The profile bar 9 is then pushed onto the attached bracket 18, the profile bar 9 having recesses 20 which are hook-shaped bent free ends of the legs 19 of the bracket 18 correspond.

In Figur 6 ist eine weitere alternative Befestigungsmöglichkeit der Profilleiste 9 am Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 dargestellt. Hierbei weist der Rahmen 2 an seiner Unterseite 8 ein im Querschnitt im wesentlichen U-förmiges Halteelement 21 auf, welches mit einem im wesentlichen schwalbenschwanzförmigen Vorsprung 22 der Profilleiste 9 korrespondiert. Zusätzlich zu dieser Befestigung der Profilleiste 9 mittels des Halteelementes 21 und des Vorsprunges 22, kann die Profilleiste 9 ferner mittels Schrauben, Nieten oder eines Klebers mit dem Rahmen 2 verbunden sein.FIG. 6 shows a further alternative possibility of fastening the profile strip 9 to the frame 2 of the door leaf 1. Here, the frame 2 has on its underside 8 an essentially U-shaped holding element 21 in cross section, which corresponds to an essentially dovetail-shaped projection 22 of the profile strip 9. In addition to this attachment of the profile bar 9 by means of the holding element 21 and the projection 22, the profile bar 9 can also be connected to the frame 2 by means of screws, rivets or an adhesive.

Eine weitere Ausführungsform der Profilleiste 9 ist in den Figuren 7 bis 9 dargestellt, wobei die Profilleiste 9 hier derart ausgebildet ist, daß sie den Rahmen 2 in fast vollständiger Weise ummantelt, so daß nicht nur die Kante 3 des Rahmens 2, sondern auch die Unterseite 8 und die der Kante 3 gegenüberliegende Kante des Rahmens 2 von der Profilleiste 9 umgeben sind. In der Figur 7 ist hierzu eine Befestigungsmöglichkeit der Profilleiste 9 am Rahmen 2 mittels einer Klammer 23 dargestellt. Diese Klammer 23 wird in ähnlicher Weise wie die Klammer 18 auf den Rahmen 2 derart aufgesteckt, daß zwei federerlastisch ausgebildete Schenkel die Klammer 23 kraftschlüssig am Rahmen 2 halten. Anschließend wird die Profilleiste 9 in Längsrichtung des Rahmens 2 auf diesen aufgeschoben. Durch diese Ausgestaltung wird ein Rundumschutz des Rahmens 2 mit innenliegender Befestigungsklammer 23 erzielt, so daß neben der Vermeidung von Unfällen auch ein Schutz gegen Korrosion des Rahmens 2 des Torblattes 1 gegeben ist.Another embodiment of the profile bar 9 is shown in Figures 7 to 9, wherein the profile bar 9 is designed such that it encases the frame 2 in an almost complete manner, so that not only the edge 3 of the frame 2, but also the underside 8 and the edge of the frame 2 opposite the edge 3 are surrounded by the profiled strip 9. For this purpose, FIG. 7 shows a possibility of fastening the profile strip 9 to the frame 2 by means of a bracket 23. This bracket 23 is attached to the frame 2 in a manner similar to the bracket 18 in such a way that two resiliently designed legs hold the bracket 23 non-positively on the frame 2. Then the profile bar 9 is pushed onto the frame 2 in the longitudinal direction. With this configuration, all-round protection of the frame 2 with the internal fastening clip 23 is achieved, so that, in addition to avoiding accidents, protection against corrosion of the frame 2 of the door leaf 1 is also provided.

In der Figur 8 ist eine Profilleiste 9 dargestellt, die ebenfalls einen Rundum-Kantenschutz für den Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 darstellt, jedoch im Vergleich zu der Profilleiste 9 gemäß Figur 7 aus einem Kunststoff mit unterschiedlichen Härtegraden besteht. Die Profilleiste 9 gemäß Figur 8 ist in einen ersten Bereich 24 und einen zweiten Bereich 25 unterteilt, wobei der zweite Bereich 25 eine von dem ersten Bereich 24 unterschiedliche Härte aufweist und in der Schließstellung 1 an dem Zargenholm 4 anliegt. Bei der in Figur 8 dargestellten Ausführungsform der Profilleiste 9 ist die Profilleiste 9 in Längsrichtung auf den Rahmen 2 des Torblattes 1 aufgeschoben und mittels eines geeigneten Klebers mit dem Rahmen 2 verklebt. Es ist aber auch in diesem Fall denkbar, daß die Profilleiste 9 mit dem Rahmen 2 verschraubt oder vernietet ist.FIG. 8 shows a profile strip 9, which likewise represents all-round edge protection for the frame 2 of the door leaf 1, but in comparison to the profile strip 9 according to FIG. 7 consists of a plastic with different degrees of hardness. The profile bar 9 according to the figure 8 is divided into a first area 24 and a second area 25, the second area 25 having a hardness different from that of the first area 24 and in the closed position 1 resting on the frame member 4. In the embodiment of the profile bar 9 shown in FIG. 8, the profile bar 9 is pushed in the longitudinal direction onto the frame 2 of the door leaf 1 and glued to the frame 2 by means of a suitable adhesive. But it is also conceivable in this case that the profile bar 9 is screwed or riveted to the frame 2.

Eine zur Figur 8 alternative Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Torblattes mit einer Profilleiste 9 ist in Figur 9 dargestellt. Hierbei ist die Profilleiste 9 in zwei Teile 9' und 9'' unterteilt, die jeweils auf entgegengesetzte Enden des Rahmens 2 aufgesetzt sind. Auch in diesem Fall unterscheiden sich die beiden Teile 9' und 9'' der Profilleiste 9 in ihrem Härtegrad. Die beiden Teile 9' und 9'' der Profilleiste 9 sind derart auf dem Rahmen 2 angeordnet, daß die Unterseite 8 des Rahmens 2 im wesentlichen vollständig durch die Teile 9' und 9'' der Profilleiste 9 abgedeckt ist.An alternative to Figure 8 embodiment of a door leaf according to the invention with a profile bar 9 is shown in Figure 9. Here, the profile bar 9 is divided into two parts 9 'and 9' ', which are each placed on opposite ends of the frame 2. In this case too, the two parts 9 'and 9' 'of the profile strip 9 differ in their degree of hardness. The two parts 9 'and 9' 'of the profile bar 9 are arranged on the frame 2 such that the underside 8 of the frame 2 is essentially completely covered by the parts 9' and 9 '' of the profile bar 9.

Die voranstehend beschriebenen Profilleisten 9 können aus unterschiedlichen Werkstoffen bestehen. Beispielsweise ist die Verwendung von Zellkautschuk, Gummi oder einem anderen Kunststoff möglich. Hierbei wiederum sind Profile mit bzw. ohne Hohlkammern verwendbar, die aufgeschoben und notfalls mit dem Rahmen 2 verklebt werden.The profile strips 9 described above can consist of different materials. For example, the use of cellular rubber, rubber or another plastic is possible. Here, in turn, profiles with or without hollow chambers can be used, which are pushed on and, if necessary, glued to the frame 2.

Darüberhinaus ist es bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Tor vorgesehen, daß in der Schließkante eines elektrisch, elektrohydraulisch oder elektropneumatisch angetriebenen Torblattes 1 ein Messaufnehmer zur Bestimmung der Schließkraft angeordnet ist, welcher mit einem Messinstrument verbunden ist, der die Bewegung des Torblattes 1 bei Überschreiten eines Schließkraftgrenzwertes unterbricht. Die Messung der Schließkraft erfolgt hierbei in einer bestimmten Stellung des Torblattes, nämlich in einer Stellung, in der das Torblatt 1 ca. 300 mm oberhalb der Oberkante 26 des Bodens 12 angeordnet ist.In addition, it is provided in the door according to the invention that a measuring sensor for determining the closing force is arranged in the closing edge of an electrically, electrohydraulically or electropneumatically driven door leaf 1, which sensor is connected to a measuring instrument which interrupts the movement of the door leaf 1 when a closing force limit value is exceeded. The closing force is measured in a certain position of the door leaf, namely in a position in which the door leaf 1 is arranged approximately 300 mm above the upper edge 26 of the bottom 12.

Wird in diesem Fall die zuvor in das Messinstrument eingegebene und abgespeicherte Schließkraft überschritten, so ist dies ein Indiz dafür, daß im Schließweg entlang der Öffnungskurve 5 ein Widerstand, bspw. ein Gegenstand oder ein menschlicher oder tierischer Körper angeordnet ist, zu dessen Schutz die Schließbewegung des Torblattes 1 unterbrochen werden muß. Hierzu wird die vom Messaufnehmer ermittelte Schließkraft mit den im Messintrument gespeicherten Schließkraftgrenzwert verglichen. Liegt die vom Messaufnehmer ermittelte Schließkraft unterhalb des Schließkraftgrenzwertes, so wird der Schließvorgang fortgesetzt. Demgegenüber wird der Schließvorgang unterbrochen, wenn die vom Messaufnehmer ermittelte Schließkraft oberhalb des Schließkraftgrenzwertes liegt.If in this case the closing force previously entered and stored in the measuring instrument is exceeded, this is an indication that a resistance, for example an object or a human or animal body, is arranged in the closing path along the opening curve 5, for the protection of which the closing movement door leaf 1 must be interrupted. For this purpose, the closing force determined by the sensor is compared with the closing force limit value stored in the measuring instrument. If the closing force determined by the sensor is below the closing force limit value, the closing process is continued. In contrast, the closing process is interrupted when the closing force determined by the sensor is above the closing force limit.

Das erfindungsgemäße Tor ist nicht auf die in den Figuren 1 bis 9 dargestellten Ausführungsformen beschränkt. Vielmehr sind Änderungen, insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Ausführungsformen in den Figuren 2 bis 9 möglich, wie bspw. eine Abänderung des Rahmens 2, so daß der Rahmen 2 entsprechend dem Rahmen 2 in Figur 1 ausgebildet ist und eine Abschrägung 6 aufweist. Darüberhinaus ist es denkbar, daß die Abschrägung 6 nicht am Rahmen 2, sondern im Bereich des Zargenholms 4 angeordnet ist. Wesentlich bei der Erfindung ist, daß zwischen dem Rahmen 2 und dem Zargenholm 4 ein Bereich freigehalten ist, der Quetschgefahren vermindert.The gate according to the invention is not limited to the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 9. Rather, changes, in particular with regard to the embodiments in FIGS. 2 to 9, are possible, such as a modification of the frame 2, so that the frame 2 is designed corresponding to the frame 2 in FIG. 1 and has a bevel 6. In addition, it is conceivable that the bevel 6 is not arranged on the frame 2, but in the area of the frame spar 4. It is essential in the invention that an area is kept between the frame 2 and the frame member 4, which reduces the risk of crushing.
