Figure 00010001
Radio-controlled garage door drives ". With such garage door drives, communication between the drive unit and the user is carried out via a hand transmitter.

In der US 4,464,651 wird ein Garagentorsystem beschrieben, welches mit einem ortsveränderlichen Handsender und einer zentralen Einheit in der Garage und einer Station innerhalb eines Hauses ausgestattet ist. Die zentrale Kontrolleinheit weist verschiedene Möglichkeiten zur Erfassung und Detektion von Zuständen in und um die Garage auf, die von einer Alarmeinheit verarbeitet werden und an die Station innerhalb des Hauses übermittelt und zur Anzeige gebracht werden, so daß der Betreiber eines solchen Garagentores auch innerhalb des Gebäudes über den Zustand des Garagentores bzw. der Vorgänge in und an der Garage informiert ist.In US 4,464,651 a garage door system is described, which with a portable handheld transmitter and a central unit in the Garage and a station within a house. The Central control unit shows different ways of recording and detection of conditions in and around the garage by a Alarm unit can be processed and sent to the station within the house transmitted and displayed, so that the operator of a such garage doors also inside the building about the condition the garage door or the processes in and on the garage.

Des weiteren sind Kommunikationsmittel bekannt geworden und zwar in Form von Tastaturen, die außerhalb der Garage in Form von Codeschlössern angebracht sind. Diese Codeschlösser sind über eine Verkabelung mit der Antriebseinheit, die sich innerhalb der Garage befindet, verbunden. Means of communication have also become known, namely in Form of keyboards outside the garage in the form of code locks are attached. These code locks are wired connected to the drive unit, which is located inside the garage.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, den Bedienkomfort einer Garagentorbetätigung zu verbessern.The object of the invention is the ease of use of a garage door actuation to improve.

Die Aufgabe wird gemäß den im Anspruch 1 wiedergegebenen Merkmalen gelöst Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben. Dabei wird ein Hausterminal, welches innerhalb eines Gebäudes fest installiert ist, verwendet, das sich durch ein langgestrecktes Gehäuse auszeichnet. Das Gehäuse ist dabei so konzipiert, daß es im wesentlichen aus einem Gehäuseunterteil und einem darauf jedoch nur teilweise überdeckenden Gehäuseoberteil besteht. In dem Bereich, wo eine Überdeckung des Gehäuseunterteiles nicht erfolgt, befindet sich eine Aufnahme für einen ortsveränderlichen Handsender. Diese Aufnahme erstreckt sich teilweise in das Gehäuseoberteil und wird durch einen Boden begrenzt. Innerhalb einer solchen Vertiefung ist es möglich, einen entsprechenden Handsender zur Betätigung des Garagentorantriebes einzusetzen. Hierdurch wird das lästige Suchen des Handsenders zum einen vermieden, bzw. es wird die Gefahr ausgeschlossen, daß durch unbeabsichtigtes Verbleiben des Handsenders innerhalb des Fahrzeuges, welches beispielsweise nicht innerhalb der Garage geparkt wird, somit eine Gefahr besteht, daß durch Aufbrechen des Fahrzeuges und damit Betätigung des Handsenders ein Einbruch in die Garage von unberechtigten Personen durchgeführt werden kann.The object is according to the features reproduced in claim 1 Advantageous refinements of the invention are set out in the subclaims specified. A house terminal, which is inside of a building is permanently installed, which is characterized by an elongated Excellent housing. The housing is designed so that it essentially consists of a lower housing part and one on it, however there is only partially covering the upper part of the housing. In the area where there is no overlap of the lower part of the housing Holder for a portable handheld transmitter. This shot extends partially in the upper part of the housing and is covered by a floor limited. Within such a deepening it is possible to find a corresponding one Use the hand transmitter to operate the garage door operator. This avoids the annoying search for the hand transmitter on the one hand, or the risk that accidental The hand transmitter remains inside the vehicle, which For example, if you do not park inside the garage, this is a danger there is that by breaking open the vehicle and thus actuating the Handheld transmitters break into the garage of unauthorized people can be carried out.

Das Hausterminal ist dabei so konzipiert, daß es sowohl ohne einen eingesteckten Handsender als auch mit einem eingesteckten Handsender voll funktionsfähig ist. Bei der Version ohne eingesteckten Handsender sind innerhalb des Gehäuseoberteiles Tasten vorhanden, die eine Betätigung des Garagentores bzw. andere zusätzliche Funktionen im Garagenbereich zulassen. Dieses ist deshalb möglich, weil sich innerhalb des Hausterminal eine Sendeeinheit zur Kommunikation mit dem Garagentorantrieb befindet. Neben der vorerwähnten Tastatur können auch Anzeigeelemente vorhanden sein, die den jeweiligen Zustand, d.h. Garagentor geöffnet bzw. Garagentor geschlossen usw. anzeigen können. Darüber hinaus ist es möglich innerhalb des Gehäuses des Hausterminals auch eine Alarmanlage unterzubringen, die das unbeabsichtigte Öffnen des Garagentores sofort akustisch und/bzw. optisch anzeigen würde. Für die akustische Meldung wäre hierfür ein entsprechender Alarmgeber ebenfalls vorhanden, wobei sich im unteren Teil des Gehäuseoberteiles Durchbrüche in Form einer Lautsprecherabdeckung befinden.The home terminal is designed so that it is both plugged in Handheld transmitter as well as with an inserted handheld transmitter full is functional. In the version without a plug-in hand transmitter buttons are present within the upper part of the housing, which actuate of the garage door or other additional functions in the garage area allow. This is possible because it is inside the house terminal a transmission unit for communication with the garage door operator is located. In addition to the aforementioned keyboard, display elements can also be present be the respective state, i.e. Garage door open or garage door closed, etc. It is also possible to house an alarm system within the housing of the house terminal, the accidental opening of the garage door immediately audible and / or. would visually indicate. For the acoustic message would be a corresponding alarm transmitter is also available, whereby lower part of the upper part of the housing openings in the form of a speaker cover are located.

Das Gehäuse des Hausterminals besteht im wesentlichen aus zwei Gehäuseteilen, nämlich dem Gehäuseunterteil und dem Gehäuseoberteil. Das Gehäuseoberteil ist so gestaltet, daß es für eine Montage auf einer Wand vorbereitet ist. Das Gehäuseunterteil ist als langgestrecktes schlankes Bauteil ausgeführt, wobei jedoch die Höhe dieses Bauteiles nicht über die gesamte Länge des Gehäuseunterteiles gleich hoch ist. Vielmehr verjüngt sich zum Fuß des Gehäuseunterteiles die Höhe z.B. in Form eines großen Radius. Im oberen flachen geraden Bereich ist gleichzeitig eine Verschlußdecke vorhanden, die die darunter befindlichen Elektronikkomponenten für die Steuerung bzw. Kommunikation mit dem Garagentorantrieb oder eine Alarmanlage abdecken. Der Bereich der Verschlußdecke wird teilweise von einem Gehäuseoberteil überdeckt, das auf das Gehäuseunterteil aufgesetzt wird. Das Gehäuseoberteil ist so gestaltet, daß es sich der langgestreckten Form des Gehäuseunterteiles anpaßt, was auch für die Verjüngung zutrifft. Aus optischen Gründen ist das Gehäuseoberteil mit seiner Breite etwas übergreifend gegenüber dem Gehäuseunterteil, jedoch in dem Bereich, wo Gehäuseoberteil und Gehäuseunterteil zusammenkommen, liegt die gleiche Breite vor. An den Längsseiten des Gehäuseoberteiles befindet sich eine umlaufende Schattenfuge, welche dem Hausterminal eine schlanke Erscheinungsform vermittelt. Dieses wird dadurch unterstützt, daß allseitig umlaufende Kanten mit einem Radius versehen sind.The housing of the in-house terminal essentially consists of two housing parts, namely the lower housing part and the upper housing part. The upper housing part is designed so that it can be mounted on a Wall is prepared. The housing base is as an elongated slim Component executed, but the height of this component does not exceed the entire length of the lower housing part is the same height. Rather rejuvenated the height e.g. at the foot of the lower part of the housing in form of large radius. In the upper flat straight area there is also one Closure cover available, the electronic components underneath for control or communication with the garage door operator or cover an alarm system. The area of the blanket is partially covered by an upper housing part, which is on the lower housing part is put on. The upper housing part is designed so that it adapts to the elongated shape of the lower housing part, which also applies to the rejuvenation. The upper part of the housing is for optical reasons with its width somewhat overlapping the lower housing part, however, in the area where the upper housing part and lower housing part come together, is the same width. On the long sides of the upper part of the housing is a circumferential shadow gap, which the Home terminal conveys a slim appearance. This becomes supports that all-round edges provide a radius are.

Ein solches Hausterminal kann wie vorbeschrieben bei einer Ausstattung mit einer Tastatur und Anzeigefeld autark arbeiten, es ist jedoch auch denkbar, in Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Gedankens auf die Tastatur zu verzichten und statt dessen einen der sonst üblicherweise für Garagentorantriebe verwendeten Handsender mit dem Hausterminal zusammen einzusetzen. Hierfür kann der Handsender in die vorbeschriebene Vertiefung an der Frontseite des Gehäuses eingesetzt werden. Dabei befinden sich zwischen dem Handsender und dem Hausterminal keine Steckverbindungen. Die Datenübertragung wird vielmehr induktiv vorgenommen. Somit kann aus dem inaktiven Hausterminal ein aktives Gerät in Verbindung mit dem eingesetzten Handsender werden, um entsprechend die Funktionen eines Garagentores auszuführen, nämlich durch Betätigung der Tasten, wenn der Handsender innerhalb des Hausterminals eingesetzt ist.Such a house terminal can be equipped as described above work independently with a keyboard and display panel, but it is also conceivable in the embodiment of the idea of the invention Keyboard and instead of one of the otherwise usual for Garage door operators used hand transmitters together with the house terminal to use. For this, the handheld transmitter can be inserted into the one described above Recess on the front of the housing. Doing so between the handheld transmitter and the house terminal Connectors. Rather, the data transmission is carried out inductively. This means that an active device can be connected to the inactive house terminal Connection with the remote control used to be made accordingly perform the functions of a garage door, namely by actuation of the buttons when the hand transmitter is used within the in-house terminal is.

Darüber hinaus bietet die Einfügung des Handsenders in das Hausterminal auch einen Komfort dahingehend, daß das unnütze Suchen nach dem Handsender innerhalb des Gebäudes entfällt, wenn dieser beim Betreten automatisch in das Hausterminal eingefügt wird. Somit können z.B. alle zum Haushalt gehörenden Personen direkt auf den Handsender Zugriff nehmen.In addition, the hand transmitter can be inserted into the in-house terminal also a comfort in that the useless search for the The hand transmitter inside the building is not applicable if it is entered is automatically inserted into the home terminal. Thus e.g. all People belonging to the household have direct access to the handheld transmitter to take.

Das in der Figur 1 dargestellte Hausterminal 6 besteht bei dieser Ausführungsart aus einem ortsfest an einer Wand 14 montiertem Terminal und einem darin einsteckbaren Handsender 7. Das Hausterminal 6 zeichnet sich im wesentlichen als ein langgestrecktes Bauteil aus, das sich aus zwei Gehäuseteilen zusammensetzt. Dieses sind zum einen das Gehäuseunterteil 1 und ein Gehäuseoberteil 2. Das Gehäuseunterteil 1 wird auf der Wand 14 mit entsprechenden Befestigungsmitteln befestigt und beinhaltet gleichzeitig die für eine solche Kommunikation notwendigen elektronischen Bauteil und Einrichtungen. Hierzu zählen im wesentlichen eine Stromversorgung, entsprechende Steuerungen mit Mikroprozessor und Speicher sowie einen Sender bzw. Sender und Empfänger. Darüber hinaus ist es denkbar, in ein solches Hausterminal auch gleichzeitig Komponenten für eine Alarmanlage einzubringen. Eine solche Alarmanlage wird dann in Verbindung mit entsprechenden Meldern den Zustand einer ordnungsgemäß verschlossenen Garage bzw. weiteren Öffnungen der Garage melden, wobei nicht auszuschließen ist, daß eine solche Alarmanlage auch für weitere Sicherheitseinrichtungen mit benutzt werden kann, bzw. sie ist in der Lage einen gemeldeten Alarm auch entsprechend weiterzugeben. Dieses kann akustisch, optisch oder aber auch durch Funk bewerkstelligt werden.The house terminal 6 shown in Figure 1 exists in this embodiment from a stationary mounted on a wall 14 terminal and a hand transmitter 7 that can be plugged into it. The house terminal 6 draws essentially as an elongated component consisting of two Assembling housing parts. These are the lower part of the housing 1 and an upper housing part 2. The lower housing part 1 is on the Wall 14 attached with appropriate fasteners and includes at the same time the electronic necessary for such communication Component and facilities. This essentially includes a power supply, corresponding controls with microprocessor and memory as well as a transmitter or transmitter and receiver. Beyond that it is conceivable, components in such a house terminal at the same time to bring an alarm system. Such an alarm system is then in Connection with appropriate detectors the status of a properly report closed garage or other openings in the garage, it cannot be ruled out that such an alarm system also for other safety devices can be used with, or it is in able to pass on a reported alarm accordingly. This can be done acoustically, optically or by radio will.

Das Gehäuseunterteil 1 verläuft wie die Seitenansicht der Figur 3 deutlich macht, zu seinem Boden 11 im unteren Teil verjüngend zu. Dadurch wird ein solches Erscheinungsbild eines Hausterminals wesentlich anschaulicher. Auf das Gehäuseunterteil 1 wird dann das Gehäuseoberteil 2 aufgesetzt, welches der Form des Gehäuseunterteiles folgt. Das Gehäuseoberteil 2 deckt jedoch nicht den gesamten Bereich des Gehäuseunterteiles 1 ab, vielmehr ist in seinem oberen Bereich eine Verschlußdecke 13 vorhanden, die nur teilweise von dem Gehäuseoberteil 2 abgedeckt wird. In dem Bereich, wo die Verschlußdecke 13 von dem Gehäuseoberteil 2 abgedeckt wird, befindet sich innerhalb des Gehäuseoberteiles 2 eine Vertiefung 3 zur Aufnahme eines Handsenders 7. Diese Vertiefung 3 ist quasi als Tasche ausgebildet und beinhaltet keinerlei Steckvorrichtungen. Die Vertiefung 3 wird durch einen Boden 12, der nach außen nicht sichtbar ist, begrenzt.Like the side view of FIG. 3, the lower housing part 1 runs clearly makes tapering to its bottom 11 in the lower part. This will such an appearance of a house terminal much more vivid. The upper housing part 2 is then placed on the lower housing part 1, which follows the shape of the lower part of the housing. The upper housing part 2, however, does not cover the entire area of the lower housing part 1 rather, there is a cover 13 in its upper area, which is only partially covered by the upper housing part 2. By doing Area where the cover 13 is covered by the upper housing part 2 there is a recess 3 inside the upper housing part 2 for receiving a handheld transmitter 7. This recess 3 is like a pocket trained and contains no connectors. The deepening 3 is delimited by a floor 12 which is not visible from the outside.

Die äußeren Kanten 9 des Gehäuseoberteiles 2 sind durch Radien abgerundet. An den Seiten des Gehäuseoberteiles 2 befindet sich eine umlaufende Schattenfuge 10, um somit dem Hausterminal 6 ein schlankeres Aussehen zu verleihen.The outer edges 9 of the upper housing part 2 are rounded off by radii. There is a circumferential one on the sides of the upper housing part 2 Shadow gap 10 to make the house terminal 6 a slimmer one To give appearance.

In der nach außen sichtbaren Seite des Gehäuseoberteiles 2 sind Anzeigeelemente 4 vorhanden, die den Zustand eines Garagentores oder anderer in Verbindung mit dem Garagentor stehenden Einrichtungen bzw. Informationen sichtbar machen. Diese Anzeigeelemente können beispielsweise als LEDs ausgeführt werden. Darüber hinaus kann im Falle einer akustischen Wiedergabe von beispielsweise einem Alarm oder anderen Informationen innerhalb des Hausterminals 6 ein Signalgeber vorhanden sein, und damit diese Schallwellen auch sicher nach außen austreten können, befindet sich an der Oberseite des Gehäuseoberteiles 2 ein Anzahl von Durchbrüchen 5.In the externally visible side of the upper housing part 2 are display elements 4 available, the state of a garage door or other facilities or information related to the garage door to make visible. These display elements can, for example are designed as LEDs. In addition, in the case of a acoustic reproduction of, for example, an alarm or other Information within the house terminal 6 has a signal transmitter and so that these sound waves can also safely escape to the outside, there is a number on the top of the upper housing part 2 breakthroughs 5.

Es ist jedoch auch denkbar ein solches Hausterminal 6 nicht nur als Zustandsanzeige zu verwenden, sondern darüber hinaus es auch neben den Anzeigeelementen 4 mit einer entsprechenden Tastatur 8 zu versehen, die von dem Hausterminal 6 aus, Funkbefehle an den Garagentorantrieb abgeben kann, wenn kein Handsender eingesteckt bzw. verwendet wird. Somit ist es nicht notwendig, unbedingt einen Handsender vor Ort zu haben, um die Garagentorfunktionen zu verwirklichen. However, it is also conceivable for such a house terminal 6 not only as a status display to use, but also it in addition to the Display elements 4 to be provided with a corresponding keyboard 8 Issue radio commands to the garage door operator from the house terminal 6 can, if no hand transmitter is inserted or used. So it is not necessary to have a handheld transmitter on site, to realize the garage door functions.
