Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Tor nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a gate according to the preamble of claim 1.

Derartige aus mehreren zueinander verschwenkbaren Gliedern bestehende Tore werden in Abhängigkeit von der Form und Größe der einzelnen Torblattglieder auch als Lamellentor bzw. als Sektionaltor bezeichnet. Die einzelnen Glieder des Torblattes sind seitlich in Schienen eines gebäudefesten Rahmens geführt und können, meist durch einen Antrieb, aus einer vertikalen Schließstellung in eine zumindest annähernd horizontale Offenstellung bewegt werden. Um zu vermeiden, daß der Torantrieb das gesamte Torblattgewicht aus der jeweiligen Schließstellung anheben muß, ist es bereits bekannt, dem Torblatt eine Gewichtsausgleichseinheit zuzuordnen. Als Gewichtsausgleichseinheiten sind beispielsweise Schraubenzugfedereinheiten bekannt, die im Bereich der horizontalen Laufschienenabschnitte angeordnet sind. Derartige Schraubenzugfedereinheiten sind aber aufgrund ihrer Anordnung im Deckenbereich äußerst störend und benötigen verhältnismäßig lange Federn, die den gesamten Hub des Torblattes ausgleichen müssen. Such gates consisting of a plurality of pivotable links are also dependent on the shape and size of the individual door leaf links referred to as lamellar gate or sectional gate. The individual links of the door leaf are guided laterally in rails of a frame fixed to the building and can usually by a drive, from a vertical closed position to at least one approximately horizontal open position can be moved. To avoid that the door operator lift the entire door leaf weight from the respective closed position must, it is already known, the door leaf a weight compensation unit assigned. Coil tension spring units are, for example, as weight compensation units known in the area of the horizontal track sections are arranged. Such coil spring units are due to their Arrangement in the ceiling area extremely disruptive and take a relatively long time Springs that have to balance the entire stroke of the door leaf.

Aus der EP 0 648 307 B1 ist darüber hinaus bekannt, eine Gewichtsausgleichseinheit vorzusehen, die durch zwei durch Drehung vorspannbare Schraubenfedern gebildet sind. Diese Gewichtsausgleichseinheit ist im Bereich des Sturzes der Gebäudeöffnung gebäudefest angeordnet und die Schraubenfedern wirken im vorgespannten Zustand mit einem Ende auf einen Flansch, der auf einer drehbaren Welle befestigt ist. Über diese Welle können die Schraubenfedern problemlos von außen vorgespannt werden. Das andere Ende der Schraubenfeder wirkt auf jeweils eine Seiltrommel, die einerseits das Ende eines Seiles fest aufnimmt, während das andere Ende des Seiles im unteren Bereich des Torblattes befestigt ist. Mittels der vorgespannten Schraubenfedern kann das Gewicht des sich hebenden oder senkenden Torblattes ausgeglichen werden. Eine derartige Gewichtsausgleichseinheit hat jedoch den Nachteil, daß eine verhältnismäßig große Sturzhöhe benötigt wird, die für die Einbauhöhe des Torblattes verlorengeht, da diese vorbekannte Gewichtsausgleichseinheit nur oberhalb des Torblattes montierbar ist.EP 0 648 307 B1 also discloses a weight compensation unit to be provided by two coil springs that can be preloaded by rotation are formed. This weight compensation unit is in the area of the lintel of the building opening arranged fixed to the building and the coil springs act in the preloaded Condition with one end on a flange on a rotatable one Shaft is attached. The coil springs can be easily removed from this shaft be biased outside. The other end of the coil spring acts on each a rope drum, which on the one hand firmly holds the end of a rope, while the other end of the rope is fastened in the lower area of the door leaf. By means of the preloaded coil springs can be the weight of the lifting or lowering Door leaf to be compensated. Such a weight balancing unit has the disadvantage, however, that a relatively large headroom is required, which is lost for the installation height of the door leaf, since this previously known weight compensation unit can only be installed above the door leaf.

Um dieses Problem zu lösen, wurde gemäß der Lehre der DE 298 05 716 U die Gewichtsausgleichseinheit unmittelbar im unteren Bereich des Torblattes angeordnet. Das bedeutet, daß die Welle mit den Schraubenfedern direkt am unteren Bereich des Torblattes angeordnet ist. An über seitlich über das Torblatt hinausragenden Enden ist jeweils mindestens ein Treibrad angebracht worden, welches mit seitlich des Torblatts am Gebäude befestigten, dem Treibrad entsprechenden Leisten formschlüssig in Eingriff geht. Diese Lösung hat den Nachteil, daß die gesamte Gewichtsausgleichseinheit, die im unteren Bereich des Torblattes, also in der Regel an der untersten Torblattlamelle angeordnet ist, jeweils mit dem gesamten Tor hochgehoben und abgesenkt werden muß. Dadurch muß zum einen die Gewichtsausgleichseinheit stärker dimensioniert werden (wodurch sie auch wieder schwerer wird) oder es muß zum anderen eine höhere Kraft beim Aufwärtsbewegen des Torblattes aufgewendet werden.To solve this problem, according to the teaching of DE 298 05 716 U Weight compensation unit arranged directly in the lower area of the door leaf. This means that the shaft with the coil springs is directly at the bottom the door leaf is arranged. On protruding laterally beyond the door leaf At least one driving wheel has been attached to the ends Laths attached to the side of the door leaf corresponding to the driving wheel engages positively. This solution has the disadvantage that the entire Weight compensation unit in the lower area of the door leaf, i.e. in is usually arranged on the lowest door leaf lamella, each with the entire Gate must be raised and lowered. As a result, the Weight balancing unit can be dimensioned stronger (which also makes them becomes heavier) or on the other hand a higher force has to be moved when moving upwards of the door leaf.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, ein gattungsgemäßes Tor derart weiterzubilden, daß es einerseits raumsparend bei besonders niedrigen Sturzhöhen montierbar ist und andererseits das jeweils zu bewegende Eigengewicht möglichst gering gehalten wird.The object of the present invention is therefore a gate of this type to further develop that, on the one hand, it saves space with particularly low lintel heights is mountable and on the other hand the weight to be moved as possible is kept low.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe ausgehend von einem gattungsgemäßen Tor nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 durch die Kombination mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Demnach ist die Welle am im verschlossenen Zustand des Tores oberen Bereich des Torblattes angeordnet.According to the invention, this task is based on a generic gate according to the preamble of claim 1 by the combination with the characterizing Features of claim 1 solved. Accordingly, the wave is closed Condition of the gate arranged upper area of the door leaf.

Bei dieser Lösung ist die Gewichtsausgleichseinheit einerseits unmittelbar am Tor angeordnet, so daß nur niedrige Sturzhöhen erforderlich sind. Andererseits braucht aber die Gewichtsausgleichseinheit nicht über die Höhe der Toröffnung hoch und runter bewegt werden. Vielmehr wird die bezogen auf das Gesamtgewicht des Tores schwere Gewichtsausgleichseinheit mit dem obersten verschwenkbaren Glied des Torblattes im wesentlichen waagrecht bewegt.In this solution, the weight compensation unit is on the one hand directly at the gate arranged so that only low lintel heights are required. On the other hand, needs but the weight compensation unit does not go up and over the height of the gate opening be moved down. Rather, it is based on the total weight of the gate heavy weight balancing unit with the top pivotable link of the door leaf moved essentially horizontally.

Diese grundsätzliche Lösung betrifft eine Gewichtsausgleichseinheit, die vorteilhaft bei einer Ausführung mit Handbetätigung wie auch bei einer automatisierten motorbetätigten Ausführung ist.This basic solution relates to a weight balancing unit, which is advantageous with a version with manual operation as well as with an automated motor-operated one Execution is.

Bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den sich an den Hauptanspruch anschließenden Unteransprüchen.Preferred embodiments of the invention result from the Subordinate claims following main claim.

Nach einer ersten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann die Welle mit der mindestens einen Schraubenfeder zumindest eine Trommel aufweisen, von der aus ein Zugmittel gegen die Federkraft der Schraubenfeder abwickelbar ausgeht und zumindest um einen Umlenkpunkt im unteren Bereich des Torblattes geführt ist, wobei das freie Ende des Zugmittels bezogen auf das geschlossene Torblatt in dessen oberen Bereich am feststehenden Rahmen oder dem Gebäude fixiert ist.According to a first embodiment of the invention, the shaft with the at least have a coil spring at least one drum, from which a traction means goes out unwindable against the spring force of the coil spring and at least is guided around a deflection point in the lower region of the door leaf, wherein the free end of the traction device in relation to the closed door leaf upper area is fixed to the fixed frame or the building.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist an jedem Ende der horizontal angeordneten Welle eine Trommel verdrehfest gegenüber dieser Welle angeordnet. Die auf die Trommel aufwickelbaren Zugmittel sind jeweils seitlich am Torblatt geführt. Vorzugsweise sind derartige Zugmittel handelsübliche Seile.According to a preferred embodiment, the horizontally arranged is at each end Shaft arranged a drum against rotation against this shaft. The traction devices that can be wound onto the drum are each guided laterally on the door leaf. Such traction means are preferably commercially available ropes.

Seitlich an den Gliedern des Torblattes sind jeweils Rollen angeordnet, über die das Tor in seitlichen Führungen des Rahmens vorteilhaft führbar sind.Rollers are arranged on the side of the links of the door leaf the gate can advantageously be guided in side guides of the frame.

Das mindestens eine Zugmittel kann jeweils um die am untersten Glied des Torblatts angeordnete Rolle bzw. deren Halterung geführt sein. Es kann auch auf der Halterung vor der Rolle, die in der seitlichen Führung läuft, eine eigens für die Führung des Zugmittels vorgesehene Rolle vorhanden sein.The at least one traction means can be around the bottom link of the door leaf arranged roller or its holder can be guided. It can also be on the Bracket in front of the roller that runs in the side guide, one especially for the guide the roller provided for the traction device.

Vorteilhaft können zur seitlichen Führung des mindestens einen Zugmittels am Torblatt zusätzlich Führungsrollen angeordnet sein.Can be advantageous for lateral guidance of the at least one traction device on the door leaf additional guide rollers can be arranged.

Statt dieser Führungsrollen können aber auch feststehende Führungszapfen angeordnet sein, entlang der das Zugmittel parallel zum Torblatt geführt werden kann.Instead of these guide rollers, fixed guide pins can also be arranged be along which the traction means can be guided parallel to the door leaf.

Im Bereich dieser vorgenannten Führungszapfen bzw. Führungsrollen für das Zugmittel kann hier ein L-förmig gebogenes Blatt angeordnet sein, das sich ausgehend vom Zapfen oder der Rolle über die Breite des Torblattgliedes erstreckt, wobei der abstehende Teil des L-förmig geformten Blechs von der Torblattseitenkante senkrecht absteht. Dieses Blech bildet eine Sicherung für das seitlich der Torblattglieder verlaufende Zugmittel und dient dazu, das Zugmittel auch während des Hochziehens des Tores parallel zu der Torblattseitenkante zu halten.In the area of these guide pins or guide rollers for the An L-shaped sheet can be arranged here as a traction device extends from the pin or the roller over the width of the door leaf member, wherein the protruding part of the L-shaped sheet from the edge of the door leaf protrudes vertically. This sheet forms a fuse for the side of the door leaf members running traction means and serves to the traction means even during the Keep the door pulled up parallel to the side of the door leaf.

Gemäß einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform kann entlang der Bewegungslinie der Welle eine Führungsschiene mit integriertem Antriebsmittel angeordnet sein, mit welcher ein mit der horizontalen Welle drehfest verbundenes Übertragungsglied in Wirkverbindung steht.According to another preferred embodiment, along the line of movement a guide rail with integrated drive means is arranged on the shaft be with which a transmission member rotatably connected to the horizontal shaft is in operative connection.

Dieses in der Führungsschiene integrierte Antriebsmittel kann beispielsweise als Kette oder als Zahnriemen ausgebildet sein, während das mit der horizontalen Welle drehfest verbundene Kraftübertragungsglied als Kettenrad bzw. Zahnrad ausgebildet ist.This drive means integrated in the guide rail can be used, for example, as Chain or be designed as a toothed belt, while that with the horizontal Shaft non-rotatably connected power transmission element as a sprocket or gear is trained.

Alternativ kann die Führungsschiene gleich als Zahnstangenprofil ausgebildet sein, während das mit der horizontalen Welle drehfest verbundene Kraftübertragungsglied als Zahnscheibe ausgebildet ist.Alternatively, the guide rail can be designed as a rack profile, while the power transmission member connected to the horizontal shaft in a rotationally fixed manner is designed as a toothed washer.

Schließlich könnte als integriertes Antriebsmittel in der Führungsschiene eine Reibfläche angeordnet sein, während das mit der horizontalen Welle drehfest verbundene Kraftübertragungsglied ein Reibrad ist.Finally, a friction surface could be used as an integrated drive means in the guide rail be arranged, while the rotationally connected to the horizontal shaft Power transmission member is a friction wheel.

Zusätzlich zur oder anstatt der zumindest einen auf der horizontalen Welle angeordneten Schraubenfeder kann der Welle ein Antriebsmotor zugeordnet sein. Im Falle der ersten Alternative dieser vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung kann mittels des beispielsweise als Elektromotor ausgeführten Antriebsmotors unmittelbar das zum Heben und Senken des Tores notwendige Drehmoment in die Welle eingeleitet werden. Es ist aber grundsätzlich im Rahmen der Erfindung auch denkbar, daß der in Wirkverbindung mit der Welle stehende Antriebsmotor die gesamte Schraubenfederanordnung auf der Welle ersetzt. Der Antriebsmotor muß dann stark genug dimensioniert sein, um das gesamte Gewicht des Torblattes heben und senken zu können.In addition to or instead of the at least one arranged on the horizontal shaft Coil spring, a drive motor can be assigned to the shaft. in the In the case of the first alternative of this advantageous embodiment, for example designed as an electric motor drive motor directly to the Raising and lowering the gate introduces necessary torque into the shaft become. In principle, however, it is also conceivable within the scope of the invention that the the entire helical spring arrangement in operative connection with the shaft replaced on the shaft. The drive motor must then be strong enough be dimensioned to raise and lower the total weight of the door leaf can.

Hier wird deutlich, daß die Rollen 22, 24, 26 und 28 während der Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung des Sektionaltores 10 entlang einer Führung, die durch die Strichpunktlinie 32 angedeutet ist, verlaufen, während die Führungsrolle 30 entlang der strichpunktierten Linie 34 verläuft. Im oberen Bereich des obersten schwenkbaren Glieds 18 des Sektionaltors ist eine Welle 36 angeordnet, deren Verlauf besser in der perspektivischen Darstellung gemäß Fig. 2 zu sehen ist. An den jeweiligen Endbereichen der Welle sind jeweils durch Drehung vorspannbare Schraubenfedern angeordnet. Im seitlichen Randbereich ist jeweils drehfest mit der Welle 36 eine Seiltrommel 40 angeordnet. Von der Seiltrommel ist gegen die Kraft der Schraubenfedem 38 ein Seil 42 abwickelbar. Das Seil 42 wird um eine Umlenkrolle 44 im unteren Bereich des untersten verschwenkbaren Gliedes 12 des Torblattes geführt und entlang der gesamten Höhe des Torblattes bis zu einem Fixpunkt an der Garagendecke 20 geführt, wo dieses Seil 42 ortsfest festgelegt ist.In Fig. 1 the door leaf is shown closed. On the side of the door leaf are each Rollers 22, 24, 26, 28 and 30 arranged in the not shown here Guided tours to guide the entire door leaf. The guides are in the Fig. 1 indicated by dash-dotted lines. Here it becomes clear that the roles 22, 24, 26 and 28 during the opening and closing movement of the sectional door 10 run along a guide indicated by the chain line 32, while the guide roller 30 runs along the dash-dotted line 34. in the The upper area of the top pivotable link 18 of the sectional door is one Shaft 36 arranged, the course of which is better in the perspective view 2 can be seen. At each end of the shaft are coil springs which can be preloaded by rotation. In the lateral edge area a cable drum 40 is arranged rotatably with the shaft 36. Of the A cable 42 can be unwound against the force of the coil springs 38. The rope 42 is pivotable about a deflection roller 44 in the lower region of the lowest Link 12 of the door leaf guided and along the entire height of the door leaf to a fixed point on the garage ceiling 20, where this Rope 42 is fixed.

Wie aus der Fig. 4 zu sehen ist, ist die Umlenkrolle 44 auf der Lagerwelle der Rolle 22 drehbar gelagert. Um während der Aufwärtsbewegung des Tores 10 eine Führung des Seiles im Randbereich des Torblattes zu gewährleisten, sind entlang der Höhe des Torblattes an den einzelnen verschwenkbaren Gliedern des Torblattes Führungsrollen 46, 48 und 50 vorgesehen.As can be seen from FIG. 4, the deflection roller 44 is on the bearing shaft of the roller 22 rotatably mounted. To take a guide during the upward movement of the gate 10 To ensure the rope in the edge area of the door leaf are along the Height of the door leaf on the individual pivotable links of the door leaf Guide rollers 46, 48 and 50 are provided.

Die Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 5 entspricht in wesentlichen Teilen derjenigen gemäß der Fig. 1 bis 4. Gleiche Teile sind auch mit gleichen Bezugszeichen bezeichnet. Hier ist allerdings anstelle der Führungsrollen 46, 48, 50, die in der Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 1 immer im jeweils unteren Bereich der gegeneinander beweglichen Glieder 14, 16 und 18 angeordnet sind, ein Führungszapfen 50 angeordnet, der eine reibungsarme Oberfläche hat. Anstelle eines derartigen Zapfens 50 kann auch eine einzige Rolle vorgesehen sein.The embodiment according to FIG. 5 essentially corresponds to that 1 to 4. The same parts are also designated by the same reference numerals. Here, however, instead of the guide rollers 46, 48, 50 is that in the embodiment 1 always in the lower area of each other movable members 14, 16 and 18 are arranged, a guide pin 50 is arranged, that has a low-friction surface. Instead of such a pin 50 a single role can also be provided.

Im Bereich des Führungszapfens 50 ist ein L-förmig gebogenes Blech 52 angeordnet, das sich ausgehend vom Zapfen 50 über die Breite des Torblattgliedes erstreckt, wobei der abstehende Teil des L-förmig geformten Bleches von der Torblattseitenkante senkrecht nach außen hin absteht. Der abstehende Teil 54 des L-förmig geformten Bleches sorgt auch dafür, daß das Seil 42 immer im Randbereich der Torblattglieder geführt ist, also auch während des Hochziehens bzw. Absenkens des Torblatts.An L-shaped sheet 52 is arranged in the region of the guide pin 50, which extends from the pin 50 over the width of the door leaf member, the protruding part of the L-shaped sheet from the door leaf side edge protrudes vertically outwards. The protruding part 54 of the L-shaped shaped sheet also ensures that the rope 42 is always in the edge area the door leaf members is guided, i.e. also during the pulling up or lowering of the gate leaf.

Eine dritte Ausführungsvariante der Erfindung ist in Fig. 6 gezeigt. Auch hier sind gleiche Teile wieder mit gleichen Bezugszeichen versehen.A third embodiment variant of the invention is shown in FIG. 6. Are here too Identify the same parts with the same reference numerals.

Die dritte Ausführungsvariante stellt eine Alternative zu der Lösung der vorbeschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele, die jeweils ein Zugmittel umfaßt, dar. Hier ist entlang der Bewegungslinie der horizontalen Welle 36 eine Führungsschiene mit integriertem Antriebsmittel angeordnet, mit welchem ein mit der horizontalen Welle drehfest verbundenes Übertragungsglied in Wirkverbindung steht. In der hier dargestellten Ausführungsform trägt die Führungsschiene 60 als Antriebsmittel jeweils eine Kette, die in der vereinfachten Darstellung gemäß Fig. 6 im einzelnen nicht dargestellt ist. Mit dieser kämmt als Übertragungsglied ein mit der Welle 36 fest verbundenes Kettenrad 62. Vorteilhaft kann ein derartiges Kettenrad 62 mit zugeordneter Führungsschiene 60 mit integrierter Kette auf beiden Seiten des Torblattes angeordnet sein. Durch das mit der Kette 60 kämmende Kettenrad 62 wird die Feder 38 während des Hebens und Senkens des Torblattes entspannt bzw. gespannt, wobei die Schraubenfeder 38 annähernd proportional zur Abnahme des Gewichts des Torblattes entspannt wird.The third variant provides an alternative to the solution of the one described above Embodiments, each comprising a traction means. Here is along the line of movement of the horizontal shaft 36 with a guide rail Integrated drive means arranged with which one with the horizontal shaft rotationally connected transmission link is operatively connected. In the illustrated here Embodiment carries the guide rail 60 as a drive means in each case a chain, which is not in the simplified representation according to FIG. 6 in detail is shown. With this meshes as a transmission member with the shaft 36 connected sprocket 62. Such a sprocket 62 can advantageously be associated with Guide rail 60 with integrated chain on both sides of the door leaf be arranged. The spring engages with the chain wheel 62 meshing with the chain 60 38 relaxed or tensioned during the lifting and lowering of the door leaf, the coil spring 38 being approximately proportional to the decrease in weight of the door leaf is relaxed.

Mit 64 ist in der Fig. 6 der Sturz eingezeichnet, der, wie hier aus der Dimensionierung deutlich wird, gegenüber den vorbekannten Toren mit gebäudefester Gewichtsausgleichseinheit minimiert werden kann.The camber is shown at 64 in FIG. 6, which, as here from the dimensioning becomes clear, compared to the previously known gates with a building-fixed weight balancing unit can be minimized.
