Abstract

The protector consists of a protection section (5) between panels (1,2) of the door which rotate at a hinged connection during opening or closing. The protection section spans the gap between the panels and has a section (7) attached to but not integral with the end (3) of one panel and extended by a curved section (7a) arching across and attached to end (4) of the second panel. The protection section is made from plastics or metal. The protection section flexes as the panels rotate w.r.t. one another. The gap between the projecting ends (3c,4c) of the panels which tends to narrow as the door is closed is filled by the protection section.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Fingerschutzeinrichtung für ein Sektionaltor nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a finger protection device for a sectional door according to the preamble of claim 1.

Als Sektionaltore sollen im folgenden alle Arten von Türen und Toren bezeichnet werden, die mindestens zwei über- oder nebeneinander angeordnete, gelenkig miteinander verbundene Sektionen aufweisen, wobei die Trennfugen zwischen den Sektionen senkrecht oder waagerecht verlaufen können. Solche Sektionaltore sind in vielfältigen Ausgestaltungen bekannt. Sie werden beispielsweise als Garagen- oder Industrietore eingesetzt. Wenn kein Fingerschutz vorgesehen ist, entstehen beim Öffnen und Schließen der Tore zwischen benachbarten Sektionen vorübergehend spaltförmige Öffnungen, in denen bei unvorsichtiger Handhabung ein Finger gequetscht oder sogar abgetrennt werden kann.Sectional doors are to be referred to below as all types of doors and gates which have at least two sections which are arranged one above the other or next to one another and are connected to one another in an articulated manner, the separating joints between the sections being able to run vertically or horizontally. Such sectional doors are known in a variety of designs. They are used, for example, as garage or industrial doors. If no finger protection is provided, the opening and closing of the gates between adjacent sections temporarily creates gap-like openings in which a finger can be squeezed or even separated if handled carelessly.

Um diese Gefahr zu vermeiden, können Sektionaltore mit einer Fingerschutzeinrichtung ausgestattet werden.To avoid this danger, sectional doors can be equipped with a finger protection device.

Eine Fingerschutzeinrichtung der eingangs genannten Art ist aus dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster DE 89 10 518 U1 bekannt. Hier ist ein Dichtstreifen vorgesehen, der eine Dichtlippe mit keilförmigem, geradlinig begrenztem Querschnitt aufweist. Der Dichtstreifen ist in eine Nut entlang einer Längsschmalseite einer ersten Sektion eingelegt, und die Dichtlippe ragt in eine Rinne einer benachbarten zweiten Sektion. Sowohl die Nut als auch die Rinne sind integral mit den jeweiligen Sektionen ausgebildet, so daß die Fingerschutzeinrichtung nur an besonders dafür vorgesehenen Sektionaltoren angebracht werden kann.A finger protection device of the type mentioned is known from German utility model DE 89 10 518 U1. Here, a sealing strip is provided, which has a sealing lip with a wedge-shaped, straight-lined cross section. The sealing strip is inserted into a groove along a longitudinal narrow side of a first section, and the sealing lip projects into a groove of an adjacent second section. Both the groove and the groove are integrally formed with the respective sections, so that the finger protection device can only be attached to sectional doors specially provided for this purpose.

In der österreichischen Patentschrift AT 390 297 B ist eine weitere Fingerschutzeinrichtung gezeigt, bei dem eine erste Sektion einen kreiszylingerförmig gekrümmten Vorsprung aufweist, welcher in eine an einer zweiten Sektion vorgesehene Längsausnehmung eingreift. Der gekrümmte Vorsprung ist integraler Bestandteil eines tragenden Hauptabschnitts der ersten Sektion, der beispielsweise auch zur Befestigung eines Scharniers zur Verbindung der Torsektionen miteinander dient.The Austrian patent specification AT 390 297 B shows a further finger protection device in which a first section has a circular-cylindrical projection which engages in a longitudinal recess provided on a second section. The curved projection is an integral part of a main load-bearing section of the first section, which is also used, for example, for fastening a hinge for connecting the door sections to one another.

Weitere Fingerschutzeinrichtungen sind aus Fig. 6 des Artikels "Sectional-Tore mit Fingerschutz" von Ing. Hugo Wagner, TÜR + TOR-REPORT, 12. Jahrg., 1. Quartal 1992, Seiten 10 und 12 bekannt. Die Hauptabschnitte der einzelnen Sektionen sind mit den Schutz- und Randabschnitten integral ausgebildet. Die Sektionen sind an den Längskanten komplex geformt, um ineinandergreifend den Fingerschutz zu ergeben.Further finger protection devices are known from Fig. 6 of the article "Sectional gates with finger protection" by Ing. Hugo Wagner, TÜR + TOR-REPORT, 12th year, 1st quarter 1992, pages 10 and 12. The main sections of the individual sections are integrally formed with the protective and edge sections. The sections are complexly shaped on the longitudinal edges to provide interlocking finger protection.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Fingerschutzeinrichtung der eingangs genannten Art so weiterzubilden, daß sie kostengünstig und einfach für eine Reihe von Ausführungen von Sektionaltoren bereitgestellt werden kann. Insbesondere soll die Fingerschutzeinrichtung auch an bestehenden Toren nachrüstbar sein. Weiterhin soll die Fingerschutzeinrichtung zuverlässig an den Sektionen befestigbar sein.It is an object of the invention to develop a finger protection device of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that it can be provided inexpensively and simply for a number of designs of sectional doors. In particular, the finger protection device should also be retrofittable on existing gates. Furthermore, the finger protection device should be reliably attachable to the sections.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch einen Fingerschutz für Tore der eingangs genannten Art gelöst, der die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 aufweist.According to the invention, this object is achieved by a finger protection for gates of the type mentioned at the outset, which has the features of claim 1.

Die Funktion des Fingerschutzes wird durch das Zusammenwirken von Randabschnitten mit speziellen Fingerschutzprofilen bewirkt, wobei die Profile keine integralen Teile der Hauptabschnitte sind. Daher können übliche, einfach geformte (zum Beispiel rechteckige) Hauptabschnitte zum Aufbau des Tores verwendet werden. Solche Hauptabschnitte sind viel kostengünstiger und in viel größerer Vielfalt herzustellen als die oben beschriebenen Sektionen mit integralem Fingerschutz-Profil. Man kann die Sektionen auch in der für das Tor am besten geeigneten Breite und Dicke herstellen, insbesondere auch aus handelsüblichen Profilen oder Abkantprofilen, ohne auf den Fingerschutz Rücksicht nehmen zu müssen.The function of the finger protection is brought about by the interaction of edge sections with special finger protection profiles, the profiles not being an integral part of the main sections. Therefore, conventional, simply shaped (for example rectangular) main sections can be used to build the gate. Such major sections are much less expensive to manufacture and in a much greater variety than those above described sections with integral finger protection profile. The sections can also be produced in the width and thickness most suitable for the door, in particular also from commercially available profiles or folded profiles, without having to take finger protection into account.

Dadurch, daß erfindungsgemäß das Fingerschutzprofil fest mit dem Hauptabschnitt der ersten Sektion zu verbinden ist und es sich zusätzlich an dem Randabschnitt der ersten Sektion abzustützen vermag, ist eine besonders stabile Befestigung des Fingerschutzprofils an der ersten Sektion möglich, auch dann, wenn die erste Sektion relativ große Maßtoleranzen aufweist oder verbogen ist.Because the finger protection profile according to the invention is to be firmly connected to the main section of the first section and can additionally be supported on the edge section of the first section, a particularly stable attachment of the finger protection profile to the first section is possible, even if the first section is relative has large dimensional tolerances or is bent.

Der "Hauptabschnitt" einer Sektion braucht nicht notwendigerweise ein integrales Werkstück sein. Er kann vielmehr aus mehreren fest miteinander verbundenen Teilen zusammengesetzt sein. Dies ist beispielsweise bei dem Tor der österreichischen Patentschrift AT 390 297 B der Fall, bei dem der Hauptabschnitt jeder Sektion zwei U-Profile sowie mindestens ein Zwischenstück aufweist.The "main section" of a section need not necessarily be an integral workpiece. Rather, it can be composed of several parts that are firmly connected to one another. This is the case, for example, with the gate of the Austrian patent specification AT 390 297 B, in which the main section of each section has two U-profiles and at least one intermediate piece.

Die erfindungsgemäß gefertigten Profile der Fingerschutzeinrichtung werden mit den Hauptabschnitten fest verbunden, also zum Beispiel angeschraubt, angeklebt, angeklemmt oder angenietet. Dies kann entweder bei der Herstellung der Sektionaltore oder auch nachträglich an der Baustelle erfolgen, zum Beispiel, wenn der Sonderbelag durch den Bauherrn auf das Sektionaltor aufgebracht wird. Vorzugsweise durchdringen die Befestigungsmittel für das Fingerschutzprofil den Randabschnitt der ersten Sektion nicht, so daß sie nicht von außen sichtbar sind.The profiles of the finger protection device produced according to the invention are firmly connected to the main sections, for example screwed, glued, clamped or riveted. This can be done either during the manufacture of the sectional doors or subsequently at the construction site, for example if the client has applied the special covering to the sectional door. The fastening means for the finger protection profile preferably do not penetrate the edge section of the first section, so that they are not visible from the outside.

Erfindungsgemäß können die Profile der Fingerschutzeinrichtung aus Kunststoff gefertigt sein, vorzugsweise durch Strangpressen oder Stranggießen. Diese Ausführung hat die für Kunststoffe typischen Vorteile, zum Beispiel geringes Gewicht. Wenn ein flexibler Kunststoff verwendet wird, kann man die Profile elastisch gestalten. Vorzugsweise sind die aus Kunststoff gefertigten Profile relativ dünn und weisen eine Materialdicke von höchstens 4 mm auf. Die Profile sind vorzugsweise frei von Hohlräumen.According to the invention, the profiles of the finger protection device can be made of plastic, preferably by extrusion or continuous casting. This version has the typical advantages of plastics, for example low weight. When a flexible plastic is used, the profiles can be made elastic. The profiles made of plastic are preferably relatively thin and have a material thickness of at most 4 mm. The profiles are preferably free of voids.

Erfindungsgemäße Profile können auch aus Metallblech, insbesondere aus Aluminium-, Eisen- oder Stahlblech, gefertigt sein, das relativ dünn sein kann und vorzugsweise eine Dicke von höchstens 1,5 mm oder 1 mm hat. Die Profile werden aus dem Blech durch Umformung gebildet, also gebogen, gezogen, gepreßt oder gewalzt. Auch ist deren Herstellung aus handelsüblichen Walzprofilen möglich. Die Herstellung ist kostengünstig und auch ohne aufwendige Spezialmaschinen und -werkzeuge in jeder gewünschten Größe möglich. Ein Fingerschutzprofil paßt für viele verschiedene Profile handelsüblicher Ausführung aus Stahl oder Aluminium, die zur Herstellung von Sektionen für Sektionaltore verwendet werden. Das Metallblech kann lackiert oder durch sonstige Oberflächenbehandlung optisch an das Sektionaltor angepaßt werden.Profiles according to the invention can also be made from sheet metal, in particular from aluminum, iron or steel sheet, which can be relatively thin and preferably has a thickness of at most 1.5 mm or 1 mm. The profiles are formed from the sheet by forming, i.e. bent, drawn, pressed or rolled. Their production from commercially available rolled profiles is also possible. The production is inexpensive and possible in any desired size without complex special machines and tools. A finger protection profile fits many different profiles made of steel or aluminum, which are used to manufacture sections for sectional doors. The metal sheet can be painted or optically adapted to the sectional door by other surface treatment.

Die Profile haben außer dem Fingerschutz vorzugsweise noch die Aufgabe, die Zwischenräume zwischen den Sektionen abzudichten, zum Beispiel gegen Luftzug, Regen und Staub. Dies geschieht entweder dadurch, daß die sich überlappenden Schutz-, Rand- und Abdeckabschnitte eine Labyrinthdichtung (Wirbelkammer) bilden, oder dadurch, daß die an den ersten Sektionen angebrachten Fingerschutzprofile zumindest eine Dichtungslippe aufweisen, die jeweils mit einem Bereich der ersten Sektion und/oder einem Bereich einer benachbarten zweiten Sektion in Eingriff steht.In addition to finger protection, the profiles preferably also have the task of sealing the spaces between the sections, for example against drafts, rain and dust. This happens either in that the overlapping protective, edge and cover sections form a labyrinth seal (swirl chamber), or in that the finger protection profiles attached to the first sections have at least one sealing lip, each with a region of the first section and / or engages an area of an adjacent second section.

Erfindungsgemäße Profile haben nicht die Aufgabe, die einzelnen Sektionen zu führen oder gelenkig miteinander zu verbinden. Sie sind daher vorzugsweise frei von unmittelbaren form-, material- oder kraftschlüssigen Verbindungen mit anderen Sektionen oder Profilen. Wenn man auf die Abdichtungsfunktion verzichtet, kann der Abstand der Profile an den Überlappungsbereichen ziemlich groß sein, solange nur verhindert wird, daß ein Finger dazwischen geraten kann. Daher können die Profile gegebenenfalls auch mit großen Toleranzen gefertigt werden.Profiles according to the invention do not have the task of guiding the individual sections or of connecting them to one another in an articulated manner. They are therefore preferably free of direct positive, material or non-positive connections with other sections or profiles. If you do without the sealing function, you can the spacing of the profiles at the overlap areas should be quite large as long as it only prevents a finger from getting between them. Therefore, the profiles can also be manufactured with large tolerances.

Eine besonders gute Schutz- und Abdichtwirkung erzielt man, wenn an der zweiten Sektion ein Abdeckabschnitt angebracht ist, der zumindest einen Überlappungsabschnitt der zweiten Sektion mit dem Schutzabschnitt und/oder dem Randabschnitt der ersten Sektion bildet, wobei der Abdeckabschnitt von einem aus Kunststoff oder Metallblech gefertigten Abdeckprofil gebildet ist und jedes am Sektionaltor montierte Abdeckprofil mit dem Hauptabschnitt einer zugehörigen zweiten Sektion fest verbunden, aber nicht mit diesem integral ist.A particularly good protection and sealing effect is achieved if a cover section is attached to the second section and forms at least one overlap section of the second section with the protective section and / or the edge section of the first section, the cover section being made of a plastic or sheet metal Cover profile is formed and each cover profile mounted on the sectional door is firmly connected to the main section of an associated second section, but is not integral with it.

Um einen gleichmäßigen und relativ engen Abstand der Schutz- und Abdeckabschnitte in jeder Verschwenkungsstellung des Sektionaltors zu erreichen, ist jeder Schutzabschnitt vorzugsweise so geformt, daß dessen im Querschnitt bogenförmige Krümmung im wesentlichen einem Bogen eines Kreises entspricht, dessen Mittelpunkt bei montierter Fingerschutzeinrichtung auf der Schwenkachse der jeweiligen ersten und zweiten Sektionen zueinander liegt. Weiterhin kann auch der Abdeckabschnitt jedes Abdeckprofils, soweit vorhanden, im Querschnitt bogenförmig gekrümmt sein. Insbesondere ist es sinnvoll, wenn die im Querschnitt bogenförmige Krümmung jedes Schutzabschnitts und/oder Abdeckabschnitts im wesentlichen einem Bogen eines Kreises entspricht, dessen Mittelpunkt bei montierter Fingerschutzeinrichtung auf der Schwenkachse der jeweiligen ersten und zweiten Sektionen zueinander liegt.In order to achieve a uniform and relatively narrow spacing of the protective and covering sections in each pivoting position of the sectional door, each protective section is preferably shaped so that its arcuate cross-section essentially corresponds to an arc of a circle, the center of which with the finger protection device mounted on the pivot axis of the respective first and second sections to each other. Furthermore, the cover section of each cover profile, if present, can be curved in an arcuate cross section. In particular, it makes sense if the curvature of each protective section and / or cover section, which is arcuate in cross section, essentially corresponds to an arc of a circle, the center of which, when the finger protection device is mounted, lies on the pivot axis of the respective first and second sections.

Vorzugsweise sind benachbarte Schutz-, Rand- und Abdeckabschnitte so geformt, daß sich die überlappenden Bereiche in geringem und bei jeder bei der Benutzung des Sektionaltores auftretenden Verschwenkungsstellung im wesentlichen gleichbleibendem Abstand voneinander befinden. Dadurch wird in jeder auftretenden Verschwenkung der Sektionen sicher verhindert, daß ein Finger eingeklemmt werden kann.Adjacent protective, edge and cover sections are preferably shaped in such a way that the overlapping areas are at a small distance from one another and are at a substantially constant distance from each pivoting position that occurs when the sectional door is used. This will make everyone occurring pivoting of the sections reliably prevents a finger from being pinched.

Ein optisch einheitlicheres Bild des Sektionaltores erhält man, wenn bei Betrachtung des Sektionaltores von der Außenseite die benachbarten Randabschnitte derjenigen Sektionen, die zueinander koplanar (also in einer gemeinsamen Ebene) liegen, die hinter ihnen befindlichen Profile überwiegend verdecken. Dann ist es auch nicht nötig, die Profile optisch der Außenseite der Sektionen anzupassen.A visually more uniform picture of the sectional door is obtained if, when the sectional door is viewed from the outside, the adjacent edge sections of those sections which are coplanar (i.e. in a common plane) predominantly cover the profiles behind them. Then it is not necessary to visually adapt the profiles to the outside of the sections.

Um einen besonders großen Verschwenkungswinkel der Sektionen zuzulassen, kann die im Querschnitt bogenförmige Krümmung jedes Schutz- und/oder Abdeckabschnitts im wesentlichen halbkreisförmig sein.In order to allow a particularly large pivoting angle of the sections, the curvature of each protective and / or covering section which is arcuate in cross section can be substantially semicircular.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn zwischen dem an der ersten Sektion angebrachten Fingerschutzprofil und dem Hauptabschnitt bzw. dem Randabschnitt der ersten Sektion ein Hohlraum freigelassen ist. Dieser Hohlraum bietet Platz für die Köpfe von Befestigungsmitteln, zum Beispiel Schrauben oder Nieten, die den Belag auf der Vorderseite des Tores halten. Wenn zum Beispiel ein Holzbelag von der Torinnenseite aufgeschraubt ist, kann das Fingerschutzprofil leicht nachträglich angebracht werden. Da der Fingerschutz nur mit dem jeweiligen Hauptabschnitt (und nicht mit anderen Beschlagteilen wie Bändern, Scharnieren, Lagern von Laufwerken und so weiter) verschraubt ist, braucht beim Abnehmen des Belags nur der Fingerschutz entfernt zu werden.It is particularly advantageous if a cavity is left free between the finger protection profile attached to the first section and the main section or the edge section of the first section. This cavity provides space for the heads of fasteners, such as screws or rivets, that hold the covering on the front of the door. If, for example, a wooden covering is screwed on from the inside of the door, the finger protection profile can easily be retrofitted. Since the finger guard is only screwed to the respective main section (and not to other fitting parts such as hinges, hinges, bearings of drives and so on), only the finger guard needs to be removed when removing the covering.

Ein erfindungsgemäßer Fingerschutz, insbesondere einer, der einen großen Verschwenkungsbereich der Sektionen zuläßt, ist nicht nur zum Einsatz an Sektionaltoren geeignet, sondern auch für alle Arten von an Zargen schwenkbar gelagerten Türen und Toren. In diesem Fall wird eine Sektion von der eigentlichen Türe, dem Tor oder einem Tür- oder Torflügel gebildet und die zweite Sektion ist ein Abschnitt der Zarge. Auch kann eines der Profile der Fingerschutzeinrichtung als Zarge dienen und fest in dem Mauerwerk verankert sein. Das andere Profil ist dann an dem schwenkbaren Türflügel angebracht.A finger guard according to the invention, in particular one that allows a large pivoting range of the sections, is not only suitable for use on sectional doors, but also for all types of doors and gates pivotably mounted on frames. In this case, a section is formed from the actual door, the gate or a door or gate leaf and the second section is a section of the frame. One of the profiles of the finger protection device can also serve as a frame and be firmly anchored in the masonry. The other profile is then attached to the pivoting door leaf.

in each case a cross section through part of a sectional door with finger protection according to the invention in coplanar alignment of the sections, the sections being designed in various materials and shapes using commercially available standard profiles.

In den Fig. 1 bis 11 sind jeweils zwei benachbarte Sektionen 1 und 2 eines Sektionaltors gezeigt, die durch einen Zwischenraum 10 getrennt sind. Die Sektion 1 weist einen Hauptabschnitt 3 mit einem Randabschnitt 3c und einer Aussparung 5 auf, die an zwei Seiten von dem Hauptabschnitt 3 bzw. dem Randabschnitt 3c begrenzt ist. Ebenso weist die Sektion 2 einen Hauptabschnitt 4 mit einem Randabschnitt 4c und einer Aussparung 6 auf.1 to 11 each show two adjacent sections 1 and 2 of a sectional door, which are separated by an intermediate space 10. The section 1 has a main section 3 with an edge section 3c and a recess 5 which is on two sides of the main section 3 and the edge section 3c is limited. Section 2 also has a main section 4 with an edge section 4c and a recess 6.

Die Sektionen 1 und 2 sind durch an den Hauptabschnitten 3 und 4 befestigte Scharniere (nicht eingezeichnet) gelenkig miteinander verbunden und um eine Achse 9 gegeneinander verschwenkbar.Sections 1 and 2 are connected to one another in an articulated manner by hinges (not shown) attached to main sections 3 and 4 and can be pivoted relative to one another about an axis 9.

Die in den Fig. 1 bis 11 dargestellten Randabschnitte 3c und 4c stehen in Richtung auf den Zwischenraum 10 aus den Hauptabschnitten 3 und 4 vor. Sie sind dünner als die Hauptabschnitte 3 und 4, so daß sich hinter den Randabschnitten 3c bzw. 4c die Aussparungen 5 bzw. 6 ergeben.The edge sections 3c and 4c shown in FIGS. 1 to 11 project in the direction of the intermediate space 10 from the main sections 3 and 4. They are thinner than the main sections 3 and 4, so that the recesses 5 and 6 result behind the edge sections 3c and 4c.

Ein Fingerschutzprofil 7 und, soweit vorhanden, ein Abdeckprofil 8 sind in den Aussparungen 5 und 6 hinter den Randabschnitten 3c und 4c angeordnet. Dadurch sind die Profile 7 und 8 von der Vorderseite des Sektionaltores nur durch den Zwischenraum 10 sichtbar. Zur Rückseite hin ragen die Profile 7 und 8 nicht über die Hauptabschnitte 3 und 4 heraus.A finger protection profile 7 and, if present, a cover profile 8 are arranged in the recesses 5 and 6 behind the edge sections 3c and 4c. As a result, the profiles 7 and 8 are only visible from the front of the sectional door through the space 10. To the rear, the profiles 7 and 8 do not protrude beyond the main sections 3 and 4.

Das Fingerschutzprofil 7 weist einen kreisbogenförmigen Schutzabschnitt 7a, einen Befestigungsabschnitt 7b, eine Kontaktfläche 7g und einen Verbindungsabschnitt 7h auf. Das in den Fig. 3 bis 11 gezeigte Abdeckprofil 8 weist einen kreisbogenförmig gekrümmten Abdeckabschnitt 8a sowie einen Befestigungsabschnitt 8b auf.The finger protection profile 7 has an arcuate protection section 7a, a fastening section 7b, a contact surface 7g and a connecting section 7h. The cover profile 8 shown in FIGS. 3 to 11 has a cover section 8a curved in the shape of a circular arc and a fastening section 8b.

Die in den Fig. 1 bis 3 gezeigten Hauptabschnitte 3 und 4 der Sektionen 1 und 2 weisen jeweils ein Hutprofil 3b und 4b auf, das an der Vorderseite des Sektionaltores mit einem Blechbelag 3a und 4a verkleidet ist. An den Randabschnitten 3c und 4c ist der Blechbelag 3a und 4a jeweils um einen Rand des Hutprofils 3b und 4b gebogen. Der als Flansch ausgebildete Befestigungsabschnitt 7b des Fingerschutzprofils 7 ist mit Befestigungslöchern 7c zur Befestigung des Profils 7 am Hutprofil 3b versehen. Das Fingerschutzprofil 7 liegt am Befestigungsabschnitt 7b und an einer nicht gebogenen Kontaktfläche 7g am Hutprofil 3b an. Zwischen diesen Flächen ist ein Hohlraum 11 gebildet, der zum Beispiel einen Schraubenkopf aufnehmen kann.The main sections 3 and 4 of the sections 1 and 2 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 each have a hat profile 3b and 4b, which is clad at the front of the sectional door with a sheet metal covering 3a and 4a. At the edge sections 3c and 4c, the sheet metal covering 3a and 4a is each bent around an edge of the hat profile 3b and 4b. The fastening section 7b, designed as a flange, of the finger protection profile 7 is provided with fastening holes 7c for fastening the profile 7 to the hat profile 3b. The finger protection profile 7 rests on the fastening section 7b and on a non-curved contact surface 7g on the hat profile 3b. A cavity 11 is formed between these surfaces and can accommodate a screw head, for example.

Das in den Fig. 1 und 2 gezeigte Fingerschutzprofil 7 weist weiterhin drei Dichtungslippen 7d, 7e und 7f aus Gummi auf, die jeweils am bogenförmig gekrümmten Schutzabschnitt 7a angeordnet sind. Die am Ende des Schutzabschnitts 7a angeordnete Lippe 7d greift in allen Verschwenkungsstellungen des Sektionaltores in das Hutprofil 4b der benachbarten Sektion 2 ein und die Lippe 7f in den Randabschnitt 3c der Sektion 1, während die Lippe 7e bei koplanarer Ausrichtung der Sektionen 1 und 2 in den Randabschnitt 4c der benachbarten Sektion 2 eingreift.The finger protection profile 7 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 furthermore has three sealing lips 7d, 7e and 7f made of rubber, which are each arranged on the curved protective section 7a. The lip 7d arranged at the end of the protective section 7a engages in all pivoting positions of the sectional door in the hat profile 4b of the adjacent section 2 and the lip 7f in the edge section 3c of section 1, while the lip 7e with the coplanar alignment of the sections 1 and 2 in the Edge section 4c of the adjacent section 2 engages.

In Fig. 1 sind die Sektionen 1 und 2 koplanar ausgerichtet, also in einer Stellung, in der die Hauptebenen der Sektionen zusammenfallen. Das ist beispielsweise bei einem geschlossenen Sektionaltor der Fall. Der Zwischenraum 10 ist hier relativ klein und der bogenförmig gekrümmte Schutzabschnitt 7a des Fingerschutzprofils 7 überlappt sich im wesentlichen vollständig mit dem vorstehenden Randabschnitt 4c der benachbarten Sektion 2.In Fig. 1, the sections 1 and 2 are coplanar, that is, in a position in which the main planes of the sections coincide. This is the case, for example, with a closed sectional door. The intermediate space 10 is relatively small here and the arcuate protective section 7a of the finger protection profile 7 overlaps essentially completely with the projecting edge section 4c of the adjacent section 2.

In Fig. 2 sind die Sektionen 1 und 2 gegeneinander verschwenkt. Eine solche Stellung tritt beispielsweise während des Öffnens des Tors bei denjenigen Sektionen auf, die gerade von einer vertikalen in eine horizontale Lage überführt werden. Der Zwischenraum 10 ist hier relativ groß und der Schutzabschnitt 7a des Fingerschutzprofils 7 überlappt sich nur etwa zur Hälfte mit dem Randabschnitt 4c der benachbarten Sektion 2. Ein Finger kann nur soweit in den Zwischenraum 10 eingeführt werden, bis er an das Fingerschutzprofil 7 stößt. Da sich der Schutzabschnitt 7a des Fingerschutzprofils 7 in geringem Abstand hinter den Randabschnitten 3c und 4c befindet, wird ein Einklemmen des Fingers zwischen den die Randabschnitte 3c und 4c abschließenden Kanten sicher verhindert, auch wenn die Sektionen 1 und 2 wieder in die koplanare Ausrichtung der Fig. 1 überführt werden.In Fig. 2, the sections 1 and 2 are pivoted against each other. Such a position occurs, for example, during the opening of the gate in those sections which are currently being transferred from a vertical to a horizontal position. The space 10 is relatively large here and the protective section 7a of the finger protection profile 7 overlaps only about half with the edge section 4c of the adjacent section 2. A finger can only be inserted into the space 10 until it abuts the finger protection profile 7. Since the protective section 7a of the finger protection profile 7 is located at a short distance behind the edge sections 3c and 4c, a pinching of the finger between the ends of the edge sections 3c and 4c becomes Edges reliably prevented, even if the sections 1 and 2 are brought back into the coplanar orientation of FIG. 1.

In Fig. 3 ist das den Abdeckabschnitt 8a bildende Abdeckprofil 8 mit einem als Flansch ausgebildeten Befestigungsabschnitt 8b am mit Befestigungslöchern 4d versehenen Hutprofil 4c befestigt. Die im Querschnitt kreisbogenförmig gekrümmten Abschnitte 7a und 8a der Profile 7 und 8 sind äquidistant zueinander. Da die Mittelpunkte der durch die Querschnitte der Abschnitte 7a und 8a definierten Kreise auf der Schwenkachse 9 der Sektionen 1 und 2 liegen, bleibt die äquidistante Anordnung der Abschnitte 7a und 8a in jeder bei der Benutzung des Sektionaltores auftretenden Verschwenkungsstellung erhalten.In FIG. 3, the cover profile 8 forming the cover section 8a is fastened with a fastening section 8b designed as a flange to the hat profile 4c provided with fastening holes 4d. The sections 7a and 8a of the profiles 7 and 8 which are curved in the form of a circular arc are equidistant from one another. Since the centers of the circles defined by the cross sections of the sections 7a and 8a lie on the pivot axis 9 of the sections 1 and 2, the equidistant arrangement of the sections 7a and 8a is maintained in any pivoting position that occurs when the sectional door is used.

Die Fig. 4 bis 11 zeigen weitere mögliche Ausgestaltungen einer erfindungsgemäßen Fingerschutzeinrichtung, wobei hauptsächlich aus handelsüblichen Profilen gebildete Sektionen gezeigt sind. Fig. 4 stellt eine Fingerschutzeinrichtung an zwei T-Profilen eines Tores dar, Fig. 5 in C-Profile eingebaut, Fig. 6 an Holzprofilen, Fig. 7 an Stahlzargen, Fig. 8 an zwei Hutprofilen, Fig. 9 an zwei Z-Profilen, Fig. 10 an zwei C-Profilen und Fig. 11 an zwei Anschlagrohr-Profilen.4 to 11 show further possible configurations of a finger protection device according to the invention, sections mainly shown from commercially available profiles being shown. Fig. 4 shows a finger protection device on two T-profiles of a door, Fig. 5 installed in C-profiles, Fig. 6 on wooden profiles, Fig. 7 on steel frames, Fig. 8 on two hat profiles, Fig. 9 on two Z- Profiles, Fig. 10 on two C-profiles and Fig. 11 on two stop tube profiles.

Insbesondere bei der in Fig. 7 gezeigte Ausführung, bei der die Fingerschutz- bzw. Abdeckprofile 7 bzw. 8 jeweils einen im wesentlichen halbkreisförmigen Fingerschutz- bzw. Abdeckabschnitt 7a bzw. 8a aufweisen, sind die Sektionen 1 und 2 gegeneinander um bis zu 180° verschwenkbar.In particular in the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, in which the finger protection or cover profiles 7 and 8 each have an essentially semicircular finger protection or cover section 7a and 8a, the sections 1 and 2 are mutually up to 180 ° pivotable.
