Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a roll-up or roll-off device for actuating a light protection cover for window surfaces according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a roll-up or roll-off device for actuating a light protection cover for window surfaces according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a device is known from DE-A-3 309 613.
  • Light protection covers for window surfaces consisting of two surface structures arranged one behind the other and vertically adjustable by rolling up or rolling off, with zones of different light transmission made of flexible material, in particular of knitted or woven fabrics.
  • Such covers usually consist of foils with beam-like zones running across the entire width of different translucency, in particular the zones with low translucency regularly extending over the entire width of the fabric, so that total light coverage can be achieved with just a slight vertical adjustment.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy this disadvantage.
  • FIG. 1 shows the basic structure of a sheet 1 suitable for forming a light protection cover. This consists of a plurality of webs B 1 , B 2 , B 3 etc. arranged next to one another, which are connected to one another via intermediate webs Z 1 , Z 2 etc.
  • Each web B alternately has areas 2 and 3 with different light transmittances, with areas 2 having low and areas 3 having high light transmittance.
  • the areas 3 with high light transmission can easily consist of free openings.
  • the intermediate webs connecting the webs B to one another also have a predetermined or selectable light transmission.
  • widths b and b 'of the webs B and the intermediate webs Z and the lengths 1 and 1' of the areas 2 and 3 with different, selectable light transmittance, whereby 1 must always be greater than 1 'so that one complete coverage by means of the areas of low light transmission is possible thanks to the two flat structures arranged one behind the other.
  • the flat structures themselves are preferably produced as textile structures on a knitting machine, all dimensions (b, b '; 1,1') and the light transmittances desired for the different areas (2,3, Z) being selected and as a program for controlling the knitting machine can be entered.
  • the special feature of the roll-up and roll-off device for actuating the light protection cover is that two rollers 6, 7 are used, which can be driven individually. At least one motor M serves as the drive (this motor M can of course be replaced by a manually operated crank drive). If only one motor is used, suitable gear and clutch devices 8, 9 must be provided between this and the two rollers 6, 7 so that an individual (or simultaneous) drive of the rollers 5, 6 is also possible with only one motor.
  • FIGS. 4-7 Different drive variants are shown purely schematically in FIGS. 4-7.
  • One of the advantages of the actuation device is that the required installation height (and the space required for the rolled-up light protection cover) can be significantly reduced by using two separate rollers.
  • the distance d between the two planar structures 3, 4 lying one behind the other can be chosen as desired (more or less close to one another).
  • the aim is to have a drive that is as simple as possible, on the one hand to adjust the one sheet relative to the other (for the purpose of adjusting the light cover), the adjustment path being a maximum of 1 + 1 '(all possible cover positions are adjustable), and to adjust the two sheets to both Roll-up tubes are evenly distributed, partially or completely rolled up or down.
  • both take-up tubes should take up about the same length of fabric (as even a distribution as possible so that the space required for the take-up or unwinding device can be kept to a minimum).
  • the device basically works regardless of whether the two fabrics are formed as separate or interconnected webs.
  • the reeling or unrolling device has for adjusting one of two flat webs 10, 11 (designed, for example, according to FIG. 1) with zones of different light transmittance, two winding tubes 14, 15, each mounted in end plates 12, 12 'and 13, 13', for the flat structures 10 and 11, respectively. Regardless of whether the sheets 10, 11 form separate webs (possibly with weights at their free lower ends) or consist of one piece, each tube 14, 15 should wind approximately the same lengths of the sheets.
  • Only the one winding tube 14 is driven from outside to adjust the light protection cover or to roll it up or down from the tubes 14, 15 (via motor M or a hand crank with a smaller gear 16).
  • the tubes 14, 15 are otherwise freely rotatable.
  • the tubes 14, 15 are indirectly supported in the plate 12 ', 13'.
  • This storage takes place via two generally identical gears 17, 18 which mesh and are in turn mounted in the plate 12 ', 13' (preferably pressed with their side surfaces against the plate by means of spring elements 19, 20 in order to be braked in the process).
  • the gearwheels 17, 18 each have a laterally projecting cam or pin 21 or 22, which rotate on a predetermined radius around the gearwheel axis and thereby in each case on a driver 21 'or 22' on the tubes 14, 15 or end flanges 14 ', 15' of these pipes run up (see FIG. 9).
  • the sensible maximum adjustment value is 1.1 '(see Fig. 1). If this adjustment path corresponds to the circumferential length (approx. 360 °) of the cam or pin 21 or 21 ', no further measures need to be taken. After a tube rotation has been carried out, the gear 17 is automatically rotated, and thus also the second gear 18 and the tube 15 coupled therewith, which leads to the simultaneous rolling up and rolling off of the two tracks 10, 11.
  • a circumferential length of driver 21 is less than 1 + 1 '(but at least half of 1 + 1'), double the length can be obtained by an appropriate arrangement between tube 15 and gear 18.
  • tube 15 must also be freely rotating on gear 18 (so that relative rotation by 360 ° is possible).
  • any desired light protection cover can be adjusted with partially or completely rolled or unrolled webs with the simplest design effort (a drive crank or a drive motor).
  • the gears 17, 18 are preferably braked so that they cannot adjust themselves by a single turn (under the weight of the tracks).
  • the adjustments or adjustments could, however, also be carried out without such brakes, however, assuming a certain skill of the operator.
