The profile (7) has an elongated groove (21) on the upper side (20). The groove has a slot (33) for the passage of the screw, and a channel (22) whose width only slightly exceeds that of the parallel surfaces of the screw head. The channel has two widened sections (23) directly below the slot.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Toranlage mit einem drehbar oder verschiebbar gelagerten Torportal, dessen überwiegende Fläche durch vertikale Streben gebildet ist, deren unteres Ende an einem sich über die Länge des Torportals erstreckenden Profil befestigt ist.The invention relates to a door system with a rotatable or displaceably mounted door portal, the predominant surface of which is formed by vertical struts, the lower end of which is fastened to a profile extending over the length of the door portal.

Solche Toranlagen sind mit verschwenkbaren Torflügeln bzw. Torportalen, oder als Schiebetoranlagen bekannt. In der Ausführung als Schiebetoranlage wird das Torportal auf Stützrollen gelagert, die zum einen das Gewicht des Torportals aufnehmen, zum anderen die seitliche Führung des Torportals während des Öffnens und Schließens übernehmen. Schiebetoranlagen können sowohl hängend ausgebildet sein, wobei die Führung des Torportals entlang dessen oberem Rand erfolgt, als auch stehend, wobei in diesem Fall die Stützrollen in Bodennähe angeordnet sind. In letzterem Fall ist, um ein Kippen des Torportals zu verhindern, eine weitere, ausschließlich seitliche Rollenabstützung entlang des oberen Randes des Torportals erforderlich.Such gate systems are known with pivotable gate leaves or gate portals, or as sliding gate systems. In the version as a sliding gate system, the door portal is mounted on support rollers, which on the one hand hold the weight of the door portal and on the other hand take over the lateral guidance of the door portal during opening and closing. Sliding gate systems can be designed to be hanging, the gate portal being guided along its upper edge, or standing, in which case the support rollers are arranged near the floor. In the latter case, in order to prevent the door portal from tipping over, a further, exclusively lateral roller support along the upper edge of the door portal is required.

Um derartige Torportale transparent erscheinen zu lassen, werden diese vielfach nicht aus geschlossenen Torblättern hergestellt, sondern in einer mehr offenen Bauweise unter Verwendung vertikaler Streben. Die Herstellung eines solchen Torportals ist relativ aufwendig, da der Einsatz der Streben und deren Verbindung mit einem unteren und oberen Abschlußprofil aufwendige Löt- oder Schweißarbeiten erfordert, die sich oft vor Ort, d.h. bei der Montage der Toranlagen, nicht durchführen lassen.In order to make such gate portals appear transparent, they are often not made from closed door leaves, but in a more open design using vertical struts. The manufacture of such a gate portal is relatively complex, since the use of the struts and their connection to a lower and upper end profile requires complex soldering or welding work, which can often not be carried out on site, ie when installing the gate systems.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Toranlage mit einem schwenkbar oder verschiebbar gelagerten Torportal zu schaffen, die beim Zusammenbau vor Ort kurze Montagezeiten ermöglicht.The invention has for its object to provide a door system with a pivotable or slidably mounted door portal, which enables short assembly times during assembly on site.

Zur Lösung wird bei einer Toranlage der eingangs genannten Art vorgeschlagen, daß jede der Streben an ihrem unteren Ende mit einem axial ausgerichteten Gewinde versehen ist, in das eine Schraube mit einem mit zwei Parallelflächen versehenen Kopf eingreift, und daß das Profil in seiner Oberseite mit einer langgestreckten Nut versehen ist, wobei die Nut mit einer beidseitigen, einen Längsschlitz zum Durchtritt des Schraubgewindes freilassenden Hinterschneidung in Gestalt eines erweiterten Kanals versehen ist, dessen Breite nur geringfügig den Abstand der Parallelflächen des Kopfes der Schraube übersteigt.To solve the problem with a door system of the type mentioned, it is proposed that each of the struts is provided at its lower end with an axially aligned thread, into which a screw engages with a head provided with two parallel surfaces, and that the profile in its upper side with a Elongated groove is provided, the groove being provided with an undercut on both sides, leaving a longitudinal slot for the passage of the screw thread in the form of an enlarged channel, the width of which only slightly exceeds the distance between the parallel surfaces of the head of the screw.

Eine Toranlage mit diesem Torportal läßt sich vor Ort aus wenigen, vorgefertigten Teilen bei nur geringer Montagezeit zusammenbauen. Jede einzelne Strebe wird an ihrem einen Ende mit der Schraube versehen, und mit dem Schraubenkopf seitlich in die hinterschnittene Nut des Profils eingeführt. Nachdem die Strebe vorläufig an der gewünschten Stelle fixiert worden ist, wird diese um ihre eigene Achse gedreht, wobei sich die Stirnfläche der Strebe gegen die Oberseite der Nut zieht, und damit die Strebe in dieser Position fixiert wird. Weitere Befestigungsteile sind nicht erforderlich; insbesondere entfallen Schweiß- oder Lötarbeiten.A gate system with this gate portal can be assembled on site from a few prefabricated parts with only a short assembly time. Each individual strut is provided with the screw at one end and inserted laterally into the undercut groove of the profile with the screw head. After the strut has been temporarily fixed at the desired point, it is rotated about its own axis, the end face of the strut pulling against the top of the groove, and thus the strut is fixed in this position. No other fasteners are required; welding or soldering work in particular is eliminated.

Um die wirksame Auflagefläche des Schraubenkopfes zu vergrößern, kann der Kanal unmittelbar unterhalb des Längsschlitzes mit beidseitigen Erweiterungen versehen sein, die den Platz zur Aufnahme einer Unterlegscheibe des Kopfes bereitstellen. Dies führt außerdem zu einer Reduzierung der auf das Profil beidseits des Längsschlitzes einwirkenden Biegemomente.In order to enlarge the effective contact surface of the screw head, the channel can be provided immediately below the longitudinal slot with extensions on both sides, which provide the space for receiving a washer of the head. This also leads to a reduction in the bending moments acting on the profile on both sides of the longitudinal slot.

Vorzugsweise ist die Nut mit dem Kanal und den Erweiterungen Bestandteil des einstückigen, vorzugsweise aus stranggepreßtem Aluminium bestehenden Profils. Vorzugsweise besteht auch jede Strebe aus einem einstückigen Profil, vorzugsweise aus stranggepreßtem Aluminium.The groove with the channel and the extensions is preferably part of the one-piece profile, preferably made of extruded aluminum. Each strut preferably also consists of a one-piece profile, preferably of extruded aluminum.

Schließlich wird vorgeschlagen, daß jede Strebe nahe ihres unteren Endes mit einem Querloch versehen ist, und daß die Strebe mit einer verschiebbar darauf angeordneten Abdeckhülse versehen ist, die bei Auflage auf der Oberseite des Profils das Querloch abdeckt. Durch diese Maßnahme ist es möglich, die erforderlichen Anzugsmomente auf die Strebe aufzubringen und etwaige Beschädigungen durch die Arbeitsfläche des Werkzeuges auf der Mantelfläche abzudecken.Finally, it is proposed that each strut is provided with a transverse hole near its lower end, and that the strut is provided with a cover sleeve which is displaceably arranged thereon and which covers the transverse hole when placed on the top of the profile. This measure makes it possible to apply the required tightening torques to the strut and to cover any damage caused by the working surface of the tool on the outer surface.

Die Schiebetoranlage setzt sich aus einer fest auf dem Boden montierten Stützleiste 1 mit daran gelagerten Stützrollen 2 sowie einem entlang der Stützleiste 1 verfahrbaren Torportal 3 zusammen. Die Stützrollen 2 sind zum Teil höheneinstellbar an der Stützleiste 1 angeordnet, um das Höhenspiel des Torportals 3 zu justieren. Der Antrieb des Torportals 3 erfolgt mittels eines seitlich der Stützleiste 1 befestigten Antriebsmotors 4, dessen Antriebsritzel 5 in eine seitlich an dem Torportal 3 befestigte Zahnstange 6 eingreift. Antriebsmotor 4, Antriebsritzel 5 und Zahnstange 6 sind in Fig. 2 dargestellt.The sliding gate system is composed of a support bar 1 fixedly mounted on the floor with support rollers 2 mounted thereon and a gate portal 3 which can be moved along the support bar 1. The support rollers 2 are partially height-adjustable on the support bar 1 to adjust the height play of the door portal 3. The gate portal 3 is driven by means of a drive motor 4 attached to the side of the support bar 1, the drive pinion 5 of which engages in a toothed rack 6 attached to the side of the gate portal 3. Drive motor 4, drive pinion 5 and rack 6 are shown in Fig. 2.

Das Torportal 3 setzt sich aus einem entlang des unteren Randes verlaufenden Profil 7, einem entlang des oberen Randes verlaufenden weiteren Profil 8 sowie aus einem vorderen Abschlußprofil 9 sowie einem hinteren Abschlußprofil zusammen. Regelmäßig angeordnete, vertikale Streben 10 verbinden das Profil 7 mit dem weiteren Profil 8. Die genannten Profile können aus Aluminium oder einem anderen im Strangpreßverfahren herstellbaren Leichtbauwerkstoff bestehen.The gate portal 3 is composed of a profile 7 running along the lower edge, a further profile 8 running along the upper edge and a front end profile 9 and a rear end profile. Regularly arranged, vertical struts 10 connect the profile 7 to the further profile 8. The profiles mentioned can be made of aluminum or another lightweight material that can be produced in the extrusion process.

Die Tragfunktion, d.h. die Last des Torportals 3, wird durch das entlang des unteren Randes verlaufende Profil 7 aufgenommen, hingegen dient das weitere Profil 8 in erster Linie der Abstützung der sehr viel geringeren seitlichen Kräfte, wozu eine Führungsrolle 11 in einem Seitenarm 12 des weiteren Profils 8 läuft.The supporting function, i.e. the load of the gate portal 3 is absorbed by the profile 7 running along the lower edge, on the other hand the further profile 8 primarily serves to support the much lower lateral forces, for which purpose a guide roller 11 runs in a side arm 12 of the further profile 8.

Das Profil 7 ist ein einstückiges Strangpreßprofil mit näherungsweise rechteckigem Querschnitt. Im unteren Teil des Profils 7 sind Führungsbahnen 13a, 13b ausgeformt, an denen die Laufflächen der ortsfesten Stützrollen 2 anliegen. Die Stützrollen 2 sind paarweise an der Stützleiste 1 gelagert, wobei sich die jeweils eine Stützrolle auf der einen Seite der Stützleiste 1, und die jeweils andere Stützrolle auf der anderen Seite der Stützleiste 1 befindet. Zwischen den zugehörigen oberen Führungsbahnen 13a befindet sich ein Längsschlitz 14, der die Verbindung zu einem oberhalb der Führungsbahnen 13a angeordneten Kanal 15 herstellt. Der Kanal 15 dient der Aufnahme und Führung einer in Fig. 1 dargestellten Signalleitung 16. An der Stirnfläche des Abschlußprofils 9 ist eine Schließkantensicherung 17 befestigt. Die Signalleitung 16 der Schließkantensicherung 17 ist in den Kanal 15 des Profils 7 eingeführt und verläuft darin als langgestrecktes Spiralkabel 18. Ein solches Spiralkabel 18 ist in der Lage, den bei der Bewegung des Torportals 3 auftretenden Längenänderungen zu folgen, ohne daß, wie dies z.B. bei einem Schleifkontakt der Fall wäre, im Laufe der Zeit durch Verschleiß oder Korrosion Kontaktschwierigkeiten entstehen können. Zwischen den Stützrollenpaaren ist an der Stützleiste 1 eine Stromzuführung 19 befestigt, die in Gestalt eines Flachstücks durch den Längsschlitz 14 hindurch in den Kanal 15 ragt, und dort den elektrischen Anschluß des lagefesten Endes des Spiralkabels 18 aufnimmt. Von der Stromzuführung 19 ist die Signalleitung dann zu der Antriebssteuerung des Antriebsmotors 4 geführt.The profile 7 is a one-piece extruded profile with an approximately rectangular cross section. In the lower part of the profile 7, guideways 13a, 13b are formed, against which the running surfaces of the stationary support rollers 2 rest. The support rollers 2 are mounted in pairs on the support bar 1, with one support roller on one side of the support bar 1 and the other support roller on the other side of the support bar 1. Between the associated upper guideways 13a there is a longitudinal slot 14 which establishes the connection to a channel 15 arranged above the guideways 13a. The channel 15 serves to receive and guide a signal line 16 shown in FIG. 1. A closing edge safety device 17 is attached to the end face of the end profile 9. The signal line 16 of the closing edge safety device 17 is inserted into the channel 15 of the profile 7 and runs therein as an elongated spiral cable 18. Such a spiral cable 18 is able to follow the changes in length which occur during the movement of the door portal 3 without, as is e.g. would be the case with a sliding contact, contact difficulties can arise over time due to wear or corrosion. Between the pairs of support rollers, a power supply 19 is attached to the support bar 1, which projects in the form of a flat piece through the longitudinal slot 14 into the channel 15, and there receives the electrical connection of the fixed end of the spiral cable 18. The signal line is then led from the power supply 19 to the drive control of the drive motor 4.

Das Profil 7 ist in seiner Oberseite 20 mit einer langgestreckten Nut 21 versehen, die sich in Längsrichtung über die gesamte Länge des Profils 7 erstreckt. Die Nut 21 besteht aus einem Kanal 22, der beidseitig und symmetrisch mit einer Stufe versehen ist, an der ein schmalerer Bereich des Kanals in eine beidseitige Erweiterung 23 des Kanals 22 übergeht. Der schmalere Bereich des Kanals 22 ist nur geringfügig breiter gestaltet als der Abstand zweier Parallelflächen des Kopfes 24 einer Schraube 25, deren Gewinde 26 in eine Axialbohrung 27 der Strebe 10 eingreift. Bei dem Kopf 24 der Schraube 25 kann es sich um einen Vierkant oder einen Sechskant handeln. Entscheidend ist, daß der Kopf 24 mit zwei Parallelflächen 28 versehen ist, die an den Seitenwänden 29 des Kanals 22 anliegen bzw. dort entlanggleiten können.The profile 7 is provided in its upper side 20 with an elongated groove 21 which extends in the longitudinal direction over the entire length of the profile 7. The groove 21 consists of a channel 22, which is provided on both sides and symmetrically with a step on which a narrower area of the channel into one extension 23 of the channel 22 on both sides merges. The narrower area of the channel 22 is only slightly wider than the distance between two parallel surfaces of the head 24 of a screw 25, the thread 26 of which engages in an axial bore 27 of the strut 10. The head 24 of the screw 25 can be a square or a hexagon. It is crucial that the head 24 is provided with two parallel surfaces 28 which bear against the side walls 29 of the channel 22 or can slide along there.

Die beidseitigen Erweiterungen 23 des Kanals 22 schaffen Platz zur Aufnahme einer Unterlegscheibe 30, die die Auflagefläche des Kopfes 24 vergrößert.The two-sided extensions 23 of the channel 22 create space for receiving a washer 30, which increases the contact surface of the head 24.

Der Querschnitt der Strebe 10 ist in Fig. 4 dargestellt. Die exakt in der Längsachse der Strebe 10 angeordnete Axialbohrung 27 dient der Aufnahme des Gewindes 26 der Schraube. Zu diesem Zweck kann die Schraube 25 beispielsweise mit einem selbstschneidenden Gewinde versehen sein.The cross section of the strut 10 is shown in FIG. 4. The axial bore 27 arranged exactly in the longitudinal axis of the strut 10 serves to receive the thread 26 of the screw. For this purpose, the screw 25 can, for example, be provided with a self-tapping thread.

Um die Strebe 10 bezüglich der Schraube 24 drehen zu können, ist die Strebe 10 mit einem Querloch 31 versehen. Sofern die Strebe 10 keinen kreisrunden, sondern einen rechteckigen oder quadratischen Querschnitt aufweist, kann das Querloch 31 entfallen. Eine Abdeckhülse 32 läßt sich entlang der Strebe 10 verschieben, und deckt bei fertig angezogener Strebe dessen Ende mit dem Querloch 31 ab. Die Abdeckhülse 32 besteht vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff.In order to be able to rotate the strut 10 with respect to the screw 24, the strut 10 is provided with a transverse hole 31. If the strut 10 does not have a circular, but rather a rectangular or square cross section, the transverse hole 31 can be omitted. A cover sleeve 32 can be moved along the strut 10 and, when the strut is fully tightened, covers its end with the transverse hole 31. The cover sleeve 32 is preferably made of plastic.

Zur Montage des Torportals werden zunächst die einzelnen Streben 10 mit Schrauben 25 und Unterlegscheiben 30 versehen. Sodann werden die Streben so an einem Ende in die Nut 21 eingeführt, daß sich die in Gestalt eines Längsschlitzes 33 gestaltete Öffnung der Nut 21 zwischen der Stirnfläche 34 der Strebe 10 und der Unterlegscheibe 30 befindet. Anschließend wird die Strebe 10 entlang der Nut 21 bis an ihre richtige Position geschoben. Hierbei kann sich die Strebe 10 nicht mehr lösen, da der Längsschlitz 33 deutlich schmaler ist als der Durchmesser der Unterlegscheibe 30. Schließlich wird die Strebe 10 durch Drehen festgezogen. Die Schraube 25 kann sich hierbei nicht mitdrehen, da die Parallelflächen 28 an den Seitenwänden 29 des Kanals 22 anliegen.To assemble the gate portal, the individual struts 10 are first provided with screws 25 and washers 30. The struts are then inserted into the groove 21 at one end in such a way that the opening of the groove 21 in the form of a longitudinal slot 33 is located between the end face 34 of the strut 10 and the washer 30. The strut 10 is then pushed along the groove 21 to its correct position. Here, the strut 10 can no longer loosen, since the longitudinal slot 33 is significantly narrower than the diameter of the washer 30. Finally, the strut 10 is tightened by turning. The screw 25 can not turn here, since the parallel surfaces 28 abut the side walls 29 of the channel 22.
