Definitions

  • the invention relates to a roller shutter with a guided in two lateral guide rails and windable on a winding shaft roller shutter armor made of several movably interconnected roller shutter elements, the winding shaft being rotatably supported between two lateral support parts, each of which is connected to the upper end of the guide rails, and in which A stop is arranged in the upper region of at least one guide rail, which interacts with a counter-strike on a - preferably on the bottom - roller shutter element in order to prevent this roller shutter element from being pulled up over the stop.
  • the known stop is designed as a plastic part and is firmly connected to the side support part which supports the bearing of the winding shaft. When this support part is inserted into the guide rail, the plastic stop protrudes somewhat from above into the guide rail and prevents the lower roller shutter element, which is somewhat more developed and thus has a counter stop, from being pulled up to the winding shaft. It remains in the guide rail below the stop.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a roller shutter of the type mentioned, in which the roller shutter can be easily dismantled if necessary.
  • the invention now provides for the stop to be designed such that it can also be moved out of the guide rail when the winding shaft supporting carrier parts and the guide rail remain connected.
  • This allows the roller shutter curtain to be pulled up over the height of the stop, i.e. completely onto the winding shaft, when the stop is moved from the guide rail, and without any dismantling of the guide rail and the lateral support parts, which are generally still surrounded by a roller shutter box housing. If necessary, it is therefore easily possible to remove the completely wound-up roller shutter curtain from the roller shutter box between the two carrier parts and, if necessary, to repair or replace it.
  • the stop there is basically the possibility of connecting the stop to the guide rails in a completely detachable manner, for example to screw them together. If the roller shutter curtain is to be completely wound up, the stop or the stops which are preferably provided on both guide rails are completely removed and thus also allow the bottom roller shutter element provided with counter stops to pass upwards.
  • the counter-stops can be realized simply by the fact that the lowest roller shutter element is somewhat thicker than the other roller shutter elements, so that the remaining roller shutter elements can run past the stop, while the lowest roller shutter element remains attached to it. It is of course also possible to attach a separate counter-stop to the bottom roller shutter element, in particular in the form of a widened end rail.
  • the stop In addition to the abovementioned possibility of completely detaching the stop from the guide rail, it is also possible to mount the stop on the guide rail or a part connected to it in a movable manner.
  • the stop then has essentially two positions. In one position it protrudes into the area of the guide rail guiding the roller shutter and inhibits the roller shutter from being pulled up completely. In the second position it is moved out of this area and allows the bottom roller shutter element to pass upwards, so that the roller shutter can be completely wound onto the winding shaft.
  • the roller shutter shown in Fig. 1 has two lateral guide rails 1, one of which is visible.
  • the two guide rails 1 are, for example, left and right vertically on a door frame or window frame.
  • a side support part 2 is detachably connected to the guide rail and has an extension 3 which - as also shown in FIG. 2 - is inserted from above into a hollow profile region 1 a of the guide rail 1.
  • the lateral support part 2 can thus be detached via this extension 3 and is firmly connected to the guide rail 1 during operation.
  • the two lateral carrier parts carry, in a known manner, bearing or mounting mechanisms for a winding shaft 4, on which the roller shutter armor 5, shown schematically, can be wound.
  • the roller shutter curtain 5 consists, in a manner known per se, of a plurality of movable roller shutter elements 6 which are connected to one another, the lowest of which, in the exemplary embodiment shown, carries a widened end rail 7.
  • a plastic part 8 which is fixedly connected to the carrier part 2 and which on the one hand has guide surfaces in order to reliably guide the roller shutter curtain 5 from the winding shaft 4 into the guide rail 3.1.
  • the plastic part 8 has protrusions 8a which extend into the area 1b of the guide rail 1 which guides the roller shutter curtain 5 and which form a stop 9 on their underside.
  • This stop 9 interacts with counter-stops 10 on the top of the end bar 7 of the bottom roller shutter element 6 and prevents a complete raising of the roller shutter 5. Rather, the bottom roller shutter element 6 or the end bar can only be pulled up until the counter stop 10 abuts the stop 9, at least part of the bottom roller shutter element still being securely guided in the guide rail.
  • the stops 9 are, as already mentioned, firmly connected to the carrier part 2 and can therefore only be removed from the guide rail 1 when the carrier part 2 is separated from the guide rails 1 becomes.
  • this requires disassembly of the guide rail or the support parts 2 and thus complete dismantling of the roller shutter.
  • 3 to 5 show a stop 9, which can be completely detached from the guide rail 1, without a support part, not shown, which is inserted, for example, with a pin into the hollow profile region 1 a of the guide rail from above.
  • the stop 9 is formed on a stop element designated overall by 11, which has an extension 12 which can be inserted into a further hollow profile region 1c of the guide rail, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
  • the stop element 11 is preferably made of galvanized sheet metal and can thus be produced simply and inexpensively. It is particularly favorable to use the stop element to make two parts 11a and 11b, each of which is bent from sheet metal and subsequently firmly connected to one another, for example at the spot welding points 13.
  • the guide rail has, in addition to the region 1b, which is essentially U-shaped in cross section, for receiving and guiding the roller shutter curtain 2, hollow profile regions 1a and 1c, with - as already mentioned - a hollow profile region 1a Pin of a lateral support part can be inserted, while the extension 12 of the stop element 11 can be inserted into the other hollow profile area 1c.
  • the stop 9 lies in the interior of the area 1b of the guide rail and can thus prevent the roller shutter from being pulled up completely by interacting with a counter-stop on a roller shutter element (usually the lowest).
  • the stop element 11 and thus the stops 9 are connected to the guide rail 1 in a detachable manner, for example via Allen screws 14, which can be tightened and detached by means of Allen keys 15.
  • Allen screws 14 are screwed in and the stop element 11 together with the stop 9 are firmly connected to the guide rail 1. If the roller shutter is now to be pulled up completely, ie above the height of the stop 9, the stop element 11 can be completely removed by loosening the screws 14 and the roller shutter can then be completely wound onto the winding shaft.
  • both guide rails have a stop element 11 on the left and right of the roller shutter curtain.
  • the stop element 11 can also perform the function of a so-called inlet funnel in addition to its stop function, which guides the roller shutter curtain 5 from the winding shaft 4 securely into the guide rail.
  • the stop element has curved guide surfaces 16 which converge in a funnel shape and are able to guide the roller shutter curtain, not shown, from the winding shaft into the guide rail.
  • the curved guide surfaces 16 are formed simply by bending three sheet metal tabs of the stop element 11 out of the flat position shown in FIG. 3.
  • the stop 9 is formed on a stop pin 17 which projects through a bore from the outside into the area 1b of the guide rail 1 which guides the roller shutters.
  • the stop bolt 17 is movably mounted on a profile 19 which carries a brush 20 known per se.
  • the profile 19 is firmly connected to the guide rail 1 by means of a screw 20 and extends horizontally across to the other guide rail, not shown, to which it is also fastened by means of a screw.
  • the stop pin 17 is now movably mounted on the brush profile 19 via a spring tongue 21, which is screwed on one side by means of a screw 22, and thus movably relative to the guide rail 1.
  • the spring tongue 21 presses the stop bolt into the guide rail 1, which corresponds to the normal operating position. If the roller shutter curtain is now to be pulled upwards via the stop 9, the stop 17 can be moved out of the spring rail 1 against the spring action, for example by reaching behind the spring 21 by means of a screwdriver, and thus clear the way for the roller shutter curtain upwards.
  • the invention is of course not limited to the exemplary embodiments shown.
  • other profiles of the guide rail are also conceivable and possible.
  • the storage or releasable attachment of the stop relative to the guide rails 1 can be done in a different way. For example, it is possible to simply screw a stop bolt from the side into the area 1b of the guide rail and unscrew it again if necessary.
