Definitions

  • the invention relates to a curtain for optional covering an essentially triangular or polygonal surface, in particular to shade a window surface, in particular a pleated curtain with pleated curtain material, after which
  • the preamble of claim 1 wherein the curtain (s) but e.g. B. also consist of (horizontal) slats or the like can.
  • From DE-GM 89 08 566 is such a taut folding blind known for a trapezoidal surface that has a fixed lower one Rail and a shorter one (corresponding to the trapezoidal shape) has movable upper rail, between which the curtain is arranged, the clamping device (s) with its (their) one end attached to the movable upper rail is (are), and at its (their) other end through the lower fixed rail is (are).
  • a tensioner is used (if necessary) at the lower end of the clamping device adjacent weight.
  • This voltage generation is particularly when open Inappropriate curtain, because then correspondingly long sections of clamping means hang out of the curtain. Also suitable this construction is not for relatively wide curtains and / or Polygonal areas such as B. pentagons, as they are very common occur as a need.
  • DE-GM 89 09 836 is a generic three-rail folding curtain known, the clamping means under spring force stands, and when opening the curtain on one in the lower fixed rail arranged winding shaft wound in which a preloaded torsion spring is arranged.
  • the curtain extends between the lower fixed rail and one movable transversely to this in the curtain plane Rail in the closed curtain position on one upper fixed rail.
  • EP-0 532 036 A3 describes a pleated curtain for a trapezoidal one Known area of a first, upper, triangular Curtain and a second, lower, rectangular curtain having.
  • the first curtain is between an upper, sloping, fixed rail and a middle, horizontal, held to the first rail pivotable rail, while the second curtain between the middle rail and a parallel lower rail is attached.
  • a pull cord grips the free end section of the middle one Rail on and is on one above the top rail Tension spring attached.
  • the object of the present invention is a generic To create curtain while avoiding the above and other drawbacks a both aesthetically as well functionally satisfactory shading of complicated (window) geometries allows, the friction and thus the Operating force when opening and closing significantly reduced and also create a possibility should be able to open the curtain without there being a fixed rail (with curtain material) right through the middle of the surface extends. It should also be possible to be relatively wide Folding blinds from z. B. 2 m width and more to form like this was previously not possible.
  • Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment of an inventive Folded curtain in side view of the one to be covered Surface.
  • An (upper) trapezoidal first curtain 1 the left and right side margin designated 1a and 1b are with its upper edge on a movable upper first rail 2 and an underlying Holding rail 3 stretched so that the curtain folds horizontally and thus run parallel to the rails 2, 3.
  • the first movable (upper) Rail 2 to a fixed stop rail 6, the also serves as a suspension and guide element.
  • Right away to the left side edge 1a of the trapezoidal first Curtain 1 joins an edge rail 7, which also serves as a suspension and guide element.
  • the stop rail 6 and the edge rail 7 are each at fastening points 6a and 7a in a suitable manner at the edge of the area to be shaded Surface attached while the support rail 3 over suspensions 8 hangs on the fixed rails 6 and 7.
  • FIG. 1 it should be noted that the folding blind according to FIG. 1 can also be seen only for an area according to the curtain 1 could be determined. In this case (only) the rail 4 (in addition to the second curtain 5 and the associated curtain Clamping means (14)) are omitted.
  • the vertical movement of the rail 2 is first of all guided by a tensioning means 11 designed as a tension cord at its upper end section 11 'in the area of its parallel to the inclined left side edge 1a of the first curtain 1 Inclined section 11 "is attached, namely a tension spring 12 in the inclined edge rail 7, and that its other end 11 '' 'is attached to the rail 3, the clamping means 11 at deflection points 20 in the rails 6 and 2 is deflected so that its sections 11 'and 11' ' run in parallel.
  • This arrangement has the consequence that Clamping means 11 of the curtain 1 do not open and close must be pulled through all folds so that a significant lower actuation force is sufficient than with known folding blinds, where the clamping device is accommodated below.
  • the rail 2 (and thus the curtain 1) from a second clamping means 9 performed in two symmetrical Sections each run twice in an L-shape over rollers is held at its ends in the stop rail 6.
  • a suitable location e.g. here in the holding rail 3 provides a tension spring 10 for the required bias the tension cord 9.
  • the mutual distance a between adjacent, parallel sections of the clamping means is about 50 cm.
  • the second (lower) movable rail 4 is in Fig. 1 in half-open position between its open position (adjacent to the holding rail 3) and its closed position (adjacent to the attachment or fastening points 13).
  • the rail 4 is in its vertical up and down Movement in the same way as the rail 2 through a clamping means 14 guided, which - starting from (lower) Attachment points 13 - arranged in the rail 4 Deflection rollers run to the central rail 3 and are arranged from there Tension springs 15 are kept under tension.
  • a further embodiment of a fold curtain according to the invention only a triangular or trapezoidal curtain part 1 and no rectangular Show curtain part 5, as shown schematically in Fig. 6 is.
  • Such an embodiment is for one Expert in an obvious way, because the rails 2 and 4, which hold curtains 1 and 5, are functional independently of the tension cords 9, 11 and 14 can be moved in parallel and thus also in each case individual (with only one curtain) can be arranged.
  • FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of a pleated curtain, in which an (upper) trapezoidal first curtain 1 between a movable upper first rail 2 and one movable lower intermediate rail 4 'is stretched.
  • a (Lower) rectangular second curtain 5 is in a corresponding Way between the movable lower intermediate rail 4 'and one underlying fixed support rail 3 stretched.
  • the both curtains 1 and 5 are only with their left or right side edges 1a and 1b and 5a and 5b indicated.
  • the intermediate rail 4 ' is displaceable in the vertical direction, being between that shown in Fig. 2 Closed position (the curtain part 5 covers the area to be shaded rectangular area) and an open position (the curtain folds are compactly pushed together) back and forth can be moved.
  • the closed position of the intermediate rail 4 ' is through the lower (left) end portion of the Edge rail 7 and one immovable on the tension cord 14 attached stopper 19 determined.
  • the open position the intermediate rail 4 'lies immediately adjacent to the holding rail 3.
  • the holding rail 3 is in a suitable manner at the bottom Edge of the area to be shaded attached.
  • the clamping means 11 is not on the Intermediate rail 4 'fixed, but by this (under Deflection) through and down to the fixed support rail 3 led. This makes it possible to move the Rails 2, 4 'in the open state from the (middle) area to move out of the surface and completely clear view create.
  • the vertical movement of the intermediate rail 4 ' is also guided by a tension cord 14, which in two sections is double L-shaped over pulleys and on the one hand in a stop rail 6 and an edge rail 7 and on the other hand is held in the holding rail 3.
  • a tension cord 14 which in two sections is double L-shaped over pulleys and on the one hand in a stop rail 6 and an edge rail 7 and on the other hand is held in the holding rail 3.
  • In the holding rail 3 provides a tension spring 15 for the required Pretensioning the tension cord 14.
  • the first rail 2 is also in the closed position in FIG. 2 (adjacent to the stop rail 6) shown in the the curtain 1 covers the upper section of the (trapezoidal) surface covered. In their opening position is the first rail 2 immediately adjacent to the top described, parallel movable guided intermediate rail 4 '.
  • the rail 2 is in its vertical up and down movement in the same way as the intermediate rail 4 'by clamping means 11 and 9 performed, the latter - starting from the (upper) stop rail 6 - over in the first rail 2 arranged deflection rollers to the holding rail 3 and from a tension spring 10 arranged there is kept under tension becomes.
  • the tension cords 9 also run here Pass points 17 through the intermediate rail 4 'between the first rail 2 and the holding rail 3 is arranged.
  • 3 to 6 show examples and schematically some Configuration options of the folding curtain according to the invention.
  • 4 shows a symmetrical pleated curtain, the trapezoidal curtain 1 of two symmetrical, oblique curtain edges la or edge rails 7 is limited.
  • Fig. 5 shows a curtain shape obtained by that a folding curtain according to the invention (curtain surfaces 1 and 5) with a trapezoidal pleated curtain underneath is combined, or in that two according to the invention Pleated curtains are combined with each other, then the middle (rectangular) curtain surface 5 opened by either one or two movable intermediate rails 4 ' and is closed.
  • the folding curtain according to the invention can be used in any inclined position up to the horizontal arrangement, in which case additional tension cords would then have to be provided in order to avoid sagging of the curtain.
