Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Rolladen für Stauöffnungen in Kastenmöbeln, wobei eine Vielzahl von aneinander angelenkten Rolladenprofilen in seitlichen, U-förmigen Profilführungsschienen geführt sind und wobei in den Rolladenantrieb ein Gewichtsausgleich eingesetzt ist, welcher ein ungewolltes Zu- und Auffahren des Rolladens verhindert.The invention relates to a roller shutter for storage openings in cabinet furniture, wherein a plurality of hinged roller shutter profiles are guided in lateral, U-shaped profile guide rails and wherein a weight compensation is used in the roller shutter drive, which prevents unwanted closing and opening of the roller shutter.

In der Französischen Patentanmeldung 78 09421 ist ein gattungsgemäßer Rolladen beschrieben, der beispielsweise für das Schließen einer Garage oder eines Lastwagenaufbaues verwendet werden kann. Bei dem bekannten Rolladen besteht der Panzer aus einzelnen Panzerelementen, die gelenkig miteinander verbunden sind. Diese Panzerelemente werden von einer horizontalen Antriebswelle bewegt, auf der eine Torsionsfeder gehaltert ist. Antriebswelle und Torsionsfeder sind von einem rohrförmigen Zylinder umgeben, an dessen äußerem Umfang längsverschiebliche Zahnräder angeordnet sind. Diese Zahnräder greifen in die in den einzelnen Panzerelementen gebildeten Aussparungen ein und dienen dabei als Rolladenantrieb beim Aufrollen bzw. Herablassen des Türpanzers.French patent application 78 09421 describes a generic roller shutter which can be used, for example, for closing a garage or a truck body. In the known roller shutter, the armor consists of individual armor elements which are connected to one another in an articulated manner. These armor elements are moved by a horizontal drive shaft on which a torsion spring is held. The drive shaft and torsion spring are surrounded by a tubular cylinder, on the outer circumference of which longitudinally displaceable gear wheels are arranged. These gearwheels engage in the cutouts formed in the individual armor elements and serve as a roller shutter drive when the door armor is rolled up or lowered.

Der Antrieb dieses Türpanzers erfolgt durch die Antriebswelle über die Zahnräder, die gleichzeitig die Führung des Türpanzers bei den verschiedenen Abrollbewegungen übernehmen. Die seitliche Führung des Türpanzers erfolgt in Führungsschienen, in denen die Endbereiche der einzelnen Panzerelemente während der Bewegungsvorgänge geführt sind, Die Ablaufbewegung des Türpanzers wird durch die auf der Antriebswelle angeordnete Torsionsfeder unterstützt, die als klassischer Gewichtsausgleich dient.This door armor is driven by the drive shaft via the gears, which at the same time guide the door armor during the various rolling movements. The door armor is guided laterally in guide rails in which the end areas of the individual armor elements are guided during the movement processes. The door arm's downward movement is supported by the torsion spring arranged on the drive shaft, which serves as a classic weight compensation.

Das System ist so eingerichtet, daß bei geschlossenem Türpanzer die Torsionsfeder gespannt ist. Wird der Türpanzer zum Öffnen entriegelt, neigt die Torsionsfeder dazu, sich aus dem Spannungszustand in die Ruhelage auszudehnen und versetzt dabei den rohrförmigen Zylinder mit den Zahnrädern in eine in Öffnungsrichtung wirkende Drehbewegung.The system is set up so that the torsion spring is tensioned when the door armor is closed. If the door armor is unlocked to open it, the torsion spring tends to expand from the tensioned state into the rest position and thereby sets the tubular cylinder with the gearwheels in a rotational movement acting in the opening direction.

Über die Zahnräder und deren Eingriff in die Aussparungen der einzelnen Panzerelemente wird der Türpanzer in Offenstellung bewegt, wobei die Wirkung der Torsionsfeder bis zur Totalöffnung des Türpanzers durch geringfügiges Nachschieben durch das Bedienungspersonal unterstützt werden kann.The door armor is moved into the open position via the gears and their engagement in the cutouts of the individual armor elements, the action of the torsion spring being able to be supported by the operating personnel until the door armor is completely opened by slight pushing.

Das bekannte Rolladensystem mit seinem aufwendigen Antriebsmechanismus ist in erster Linie zum Verschließen großer Öffnungen wie Garagentore, Kraftfahrzeugaufbauten und dergleichen einsetzbar. Bei kleineren Panzergrößen, wie sie beispielsweise beim Verschließen von Kastenmöbeln benutzt werden, ist dieser aufwendige Antrieb unwirtschaftlich und wird vom Markt nicht angenommen.The known roller shutter system with its complex drive mechanism can be used primarily for closing large openings such as garage doors, motor vehicle bodies and the like. In the case of smaller tank sizes, such as those used for closing box furniture, this complex drive is uneconomical and is not accepted by the market.

Hier setzt die Erfindung ein, die es sich zur Aufgabe gestellt hat, auch bei solchen kleineren Öffnungsgrößen einen Rolladen mit Gewichtsausgleich einzusetzen, der technisch weniger aufwendig und damit kostengünstiger einzusetzen ist. Erfindungsgemäß wird dazu vorgeschlagen, daß der Gewichtsausgleich ein einstückiges, durchgehendes Seil ist, welches mit seinen freien Enden an einem Rolladenprofil befestigt ist und über wenigstens zwei Umlenkungen nach Art des Flaschenzugprinzips geführt ist, daß zwischen den Umlenkungen eine Druckfeder angeordnet ist, welche gegenüber der am Seil abgenommenen Kraft ein vielfaches an Bewegungskraft federnd aufnimmt, und daß der Aufbau aus Seil, Umlenkungen und Druckfeder am oberen Rand des Rolladens geführt ist.This is where the invention comes in, which has set itself the task of using a roller shutter with weight compensation, even with such smaller opening sizes, which is technically less complex and therefore less expensive to use. According to the invention it is proposed that the weight compensation is a one-piece, continuous rope, which is attached with its free ends to a roller shutter profile and is guided over at least two deflections in the manner of the pulley principle, that a compression spring is arranged between the deflections, which compared to the Rope taken off force absorbs a lot of movement force resiliently, and that the structure of rope, deflections and compression spring is guided at the top of the roller shutter.

Beim dem erfindungsgemäßen Rolladen handelt es sich um ein Rolladensystem für Möbel-öffnungen, wobei beim Öffnen der Rolladen nicht aufgewickelt, sondern hinter die Schrankrückwand geführt wird. Dadurch geht in der Schrankhöhe kein Platz verloren. Die Mimik für den Gewichtsausgleich hat erfindungsgemäß eine Doppelfunktion, d.h. bei halboffenem Rolladen besteht Gleichgewicht und davon ausgehend wird eine ansteigende Kraft zum Gewichtsausgleich für das Schließen wie für das Öffnen notwendig.The roller shutter according to the invention is a roller shutter system for furniture openings, wherein when the roller shutters are opened, they are not wound up but guided behind the rear wall of the cabinet. This means that no space is lost in the cabinet height. The facial expressions for weight compensation have a double function according to the invention, i.e. with half-open roller shutters there is balance and, based on this, an increasing force is required to balance the weight for both closing and opening.

Bei der Öffnungsbewegung wird anstelle der bekannten Kombination Rollfeder-Seilspule erfindungsgemäß ein durchgehendes Seil über Umlenkrollen beruhend auf dem Flaschenzugprinzip eingesetzt. Dabei ist die Druckfeder zwischen den Seilflaschen montiert und bringt ein Vielfaches gegenüber der am Seil abgenommenen Kraft - entsprechend der Kraft-Weg-Gleichung - auf. Die Seilanbindung an den Rolladen ist so gewählt, daß diese sich bei halb offener bzw. halb geschlossener Stellung auf der Höhe des Seilausgangs, also in der Stellung mit der geringsten Seilspannung befindet. In dieser Stellung kommt es dann zum Seilumschlag, d.h. beim vollständigen Öffnen bzw. beim vollständigen Schließen steigt die Seilspannung bis zur maximalen Kraft an. Der besondere Vorteil ist, daß durch die Verwendung von nur einem Seil für zwei Anbindungen sich für diese beiden Anbindungen jeweils die gleiche Zugkraft selbständig einstellt, so daß sie nicht jeweils eingestellt werden muß.In the opening movement, instead of the known combination of the spring-coil cable reel, a continuous cable is used according to the invention based on the pulley principle via deflection pulleys. The compression spring is mounted between the rope bottles and brings up a multiple of the force taken off the rope - according to the force-displacement equation. The cable connection to the roller shutters is selected so that it is in the half-open or half-closed position at the height of the cable outlet, ie in the position with the lowest cable tension. In this position, the rope turns over, ie when the door is fully opened or closed, the rope tension increases to the maximum force. The particular advantage is that by using only one rope for two connections, the same tensile force is set independently for these two connections, so that it does not have to be set in each case.

Es hat sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, daß die Umlenkungen in einem Gehäuse laufende, drehbare Rollen sind. Diese Gehäuse-Rollen-Kombination wird im vorliegenden Text auch als

Figure imgb0001
Seilflasche" bezeichnet.It has proven to be advantageous that the deflections are rotating rollers running in a housing. This housing-roller combination is also in the present text as
Figure imgb0001
Rope bottle ".

Weiter erscheint es zweckmäßig, daß die Druckfeder mit ihren freien Enden an den zugewandten Endbereichen der Umlenkungen angelenkt ist. Vorteilhaft erfolgt die Befestigung der freien Seilenden an dem Rolladenprofil, welches sich bei halb geöffnetem bzw. halb geschlossenem Rolladen in der Stellung mit der geringsten Seilspannung befindet. Die Führung des Aufbaues Seil-Umlenkungen-Druckfeder ist in einem rohrförmigen Führungselement zusammengefaßt. Bei einem besonderen Einbau kann diese Führung auch in einem Zwischenboden des Kastenmöbels angeordnet sein.It also appears expedient that the compression spring is articulated with its free ends to the facing end regions of the deflections. The free rope ends are advantageously attached to the roller shutter profile, which is in the position with the lowest rope tension when the roller shutter is half open or half closed. The guidance of the rope deflection-compression spring assembly is combined in a tubular guide element. With a special installation, this guide can also be arranged in an intermediate floor of the cabinet furniture.

In einer Variante der Erfindung ist das eine Seilende am Rolladenprofil mittig befestigt, während das andere Seilende durch den Zwischenboden nach unten gezogen ist. Dadurch kann die Spannkraft des Seils verändert werden, da das Seil vom Schrankinnenraum her erreichbar angeordnet ist.In a variant of the invention, one end of the rope is attached centrally to the roller shutter profile, while the other end of the rope is pulled down through the intermediate floor. This allows the tension of the rope to be changed, since the rope is arranged so that it can be reached from inside the cabinet.

Fig.1 zeigt den Rolladen 1 im Kastenmöbel 2, wobei in die Seitenwände 21, 22 die Führungsnuten 211, 221 für die seitlichen Enden der Rolladenprofile eingelassen sind.1 shows the roller shutter 1 in the cabinet unit 2, the guide grooves 211, 221 for the lateral ends of the roller shutter profiles being embedded in the side walls 21, 22.

Oberhalb der Rolladenprofile ist das rohrförmige Führungselement 3 angeordnet, welches an seinen freien Enden durch eine Abdeckung 31, 32 verschlossen ist. Die Abdeckung 31, 32 hat jeweils eine Öffnung 311, 321, durch welche ein Seil 7 läuft. Die in Fig. 2 einseitig gezeigte Abdeckung 31 mit der Öffnung 311 verschließt mit der Abdeckung 32 spiegelbildlich auch das andere freie Ende des rohrförmigen Führungselementes 3.The tubular guide element 3 is arranged above the roller shutter profiles and is closed at its free ends by a cover 31, 32. The cover 31, 32 each has an opening 311, 321 through which a rope 7 runs. The cover 31 shown on one side in FIG. 2 with the opening 311 also closes the other free end of the tubular guide element 3 with the cover 32 in mirror image.

Das Seil 7 ist einerseits am linken freien Ende des Rolladenstabes 11 angelenkt. Es läuft nach einer Umlenkung um 90° durch die Öffnung 311 der Abdeckung 31 in das Innere des rohrförmigen Führungselements 3. Innerhalb dieses Führungselementes 3 sind zwei Umlenkungen 4, 5 gelagert, zwischen denen eine Druckfeder 6 angeordnet ist. Zwischen den Umlenkungen 4, 5 verläuft das Seil 7 in einer Rollenführung nach dem Flaschenzugprinzip, wie es zu Fig. 3 im Detail beschrieben ist. Das Seil 7 läuft dann durch die Öffnung 321 der Abdeckung 32 aus dem rohrförmigen Führungselement 3 heraus, wird wieder um 90° umgelenkt und am anderen freien Ende des Rolladenstabes 11 festgelegt. Der Rolladenstab 11 bezeichnet die Mitte des Rolladens, in der dieser sich bei halber Öffnung in der Stellung mit der geringsten Seilspannung befindet.The rope 7 is articulated on the one hand at the left free end of the roller shutter rod 11. After a deflection of 90 °, it runs through the opening 311 of the cover 31 into the interior of the tubular guide element 3. Within this guide element 3, two deflections 4, 5 are mounted, between which a compression spring 6 is arranged. Between the deflections 4, 5, the cable 7 runs in a roller guide according to the block and tackle principle, as described in detail for FIG. 3. The cable 7 then runs out of the tubular guide element 3 through the opening 321 of the cover 32, is again deflected by 90 ° and fixed at the other free end of the roller shutter rod 11. The roller shutter rod 11 denotes the center of the roller shutter, in which it is in the half-opening position with the lowest rope tension.

Aus Fig. 2 wird deutlich, daß der Rolladen 1 über die Tiefe des Schrankes 2 an der hinteren Rückwand geführt ist. Am Rolladenprofil 11 ist der Festpunkt des Seiles 7, welches in das freie Ende 31 des rohrförmigen Führungselementes 3 verläuft. Am Einlauf zur hinteren Aufnahmekammer 23 für den Rolladen 1, die durch die Schrankrückwand 24 und die Abdeckwand 25 geschaffen ist, ist am freien Ende 251 der Abdeckwand 25 die Seilumlenkung 26 angeordnet. Über diese Seilumlenkung 26 verläuft das Seil beim Öffnen des Rolladens in einer Richtung und beim Schließen des Rolladens in der anderen Richtung.From Fig. 2 it is clear that the roller shutter 1 is guided over the depth of the cabinet 2 on the rear rear wall. At the roller shutter profile 11 is the fixed point of the rope 7, which in the Free end 31 of the tubular guide element 3 extends. At the inlet to the rear receiving chamber 23 for the roller shutter 1, which is created by the cabinet rear wall 24 and the cover wall 25, the cable deflection 26 is arranged at the free end 251 of the cover wall 25. Via this cable deflection 26, the cable runs in one direction when the roller shutter is opened and in the other direction when the roller shutter is closed.

Fig. 3 zeigt in der Vergrößerung ein Detail aus dem linken oberen Bereich der Fig. 1. In der Schrankseitenwand 21 ist das Führungsprofil 27 für den Rolladen 1 eingelassen. In dem rohrförmigen Führungselement 3 ist im Bereich des freien Endes die Abdeckung 31 mit der Öffnung 311 für das Seil 7 durch das mechanische Schraubelement 312 fest eingesetzt. Im Abstand davon ist die Umlenkung 4 angeordnet, an der eine Rolle 41 für die Seilumlenkung befestigt ist. Am inneren freien Ende 42 der Umlenkung 4 ist das Ende 61 der Druckfeder 6 angeordnet. Das Seil 7 verläuft nach dem Flachenzugprinzip in einer Umfangsnut der Rolle 41.FIG. 3 shows an enlarged detail from the upper left area of FIG. 1. The guide profile 27 for the roller shutter 1 is embedded in the cabinet side wall 21. In the tubular guide element 3 in the area of the free end, the cover 31 with the opening 311 for the cable 7 is firmly inserted by the mechanical screw element 312. At a distance therefrom, the deflection 4 is arranged, on which a roller 41 for the cable deflection is attached. At the inner free end 42 of the deflection 4, the end 61 of the compression spring 6 is arranged. The cable 7 runs in a circumferential groove of the roller 41 according to the surface tension principle.

In Fig. 4 ist eine weitere Möglichkeit beschrieben, das Flaschenzugprinzip bei solchen Schrankrolläden anzuwenden. Es handelt sich hierbei um die Montage von Spannhebeln auf dem Zwischenboden eines Schrankmöbels. Auf dem Zwischenboden 28 des Schrankes 2 ist der bewegliche Spannhebel 8 angeordnet, in den die Zugfeder 81 eingehängt ist. Die Zugfeder 81 ist an ihrem anderen freien Ende mit einem fest angeordneten Montageelement 82 verbunden. Die Zugfeder 81 kann durch Veränderung der Einhängungen in ihrer Kraft eingestellt werden. Am freien Ende 83 des Spannhebels 8 ist der Gelenkspannhebel 84 angeordnet, über den der Spannhebel 8 eine gelenkige Verbindung in Form einer Hubbewegung ausüben kann. Das Seil 7 verläuft hier über eine bewegliche Umlenkrolle 86 am anderen freien Ende 85 des Spannhebels 8 und über eine fixe Umlenkrolle 87 im Bereich der Mittelstellung. Das Seil 7 kann dann bei einem Mittelseil-System durch den Zwischenboden geführt werden, wobei vom Innenraum aus die Seilspannung variiert werden kann.4 shows a further possibility of using the block and tackle principle in such cabinet shutters. This is the assembly of clamping levers on the intermediate floor of a piece of cupboard furniture. The movable clamping lever 8, in which the tension spring 81 is suspended, is arranged on the intermediate floor 28 of the cabinet 2. The tension spring 81 is connected at its other free end to a fixed mounting element 82. The tension spring 81 can be adjusted in force by changing the mountings. At the free end 83 of the clamping lever 8, the articulated clamping lever 84 is arranged, via which the clamping lever 8 can exert an articulated connection in the form of a lifting movement. The rope 7 runs here over a movable deflection roller 86 at the other free end 85 of the tensioning lever 8 and over a fixed deflection roller 87 in the region of the middle position. The cable 7 can then be guided through the intermediate floor in a middle cable system, the cable tension being able to be varied from the interior.

In Fig. 5 ist eine Lösung gezeigt, bei der der Rolladen 1 während des Öffnungsvorgangs in einer Schnecke 12 oder einer gebogenen Schiene geführt ist. Das Seil 7 ist in diesem Fall am unteren Rand des Rolladens 1 angebunden, da der Seilumschlag - wie zu Fig. 2 beschrieben - hier nicht notwendig ist. Im Unterschied zu der in Fig. 2 gezeigten Lösung kippt der Rolladen 1 beim Öffnen nicht nach hinten ab, sondern wird in der Schnecke 12 bis zur vollständigen Öffnung geführt.5 shows a solution in which the roller shutter 1 is guided in a screw 12 or a curved rail during the opening process. The rope 7 is in this case tied to the lower edge of the roller shutter 1, since the rope handling - as described for FIG. 2 - is not necessary here.
