Description

The invention relates to a lockable rotary vane system and / or sliding sash system according to the preamble of claim 1. Such systems, in particular Sliding vane systems such as balcony glazing systems, Room division, shading, etc. require a lock, the the system against unintentional opening or pivoting of a Wing secures by locking the wing with the system frame.

In systems used in practice, two are used opposite each other arranged bars, which at e.g. around a vertical axis of rotation pivoting rotary blades at the top and bottom edge laterally on the Rotary blades are attached, assigned in the bars on the system frame attached eyelets, clips or according to an opening for the bolt having fittings. Each handle has an operating handle. To open the wing system both handles must be pressed simultaneously and the wing thereby placed in a pivoting movement or sliding movement become. This requires both hands of the system operating Person, and it is often perceived as a lack that actually a third party Hand to initiate the pivoting movement or the sliding movement of the Wing would be necessary. Besides, big wings of smaller persons are only very uncomfortable to use, as the span of the arms is sometimes barely sufficient to be able to reach both handles at the same time.

U.S. Patent 4,461,160 discloses a sliding door with side lock, in which the bars are connected by a rope. The rope extends through the interior of the hollow gate and can be unlocked be pulled over a hook provided with a handle to the outside. After unlocking, the sliding door is opened by a shift the door surface perpendicular to the opening movement of the handle member.

FR-PS 908.445 shows a window lock in which two are opposite each other Latches are connected by a rope. The rope will be on Window frame led under a cover profile. Furthermore, with the window frame approximately centrally connected to a handle element, via which on the rope for Entrieglung of the window can be pulled. To operate is the handle element equipped with a spring and rests against the frame of the sash from.

U.S. Patent 3,910,611, all the features of the preamble of claim 1 disclosed, shows a lock of a motor vehicle door at the three each 90 degrees staggered latch on Bowden cables are actuated. The Bowden cables come together in one grip area and can simultaneously by operating a handle, which is arranged on the other side of the vehicle door is, partly over deflections, operated.

The three aforementioned systems each require a plurality of mounting elements and the ease of use of the corresponding locks can be improved.

The invention therefore addresses the problem of a lockable wing system to create, which is more comfortable to use and in particular more convenient to open can.

This problem is solved by a wing system with the features of claim 1 solved.

The compound according to the invention both bars by a common flexible Actuator, the exercise of a tensile force away from the surface element in the direction of the opening movement of the wing, the bolt in a wing releasing the Retracting position allows opening the wing system with a Hand, which simultaneously releases the lock on the actuator and the Swiveling or sliding movement of the wing initiates. The latches of the wing are located themselves in extension of the surface element and are in a border of the Surface element slidably guided. This will in addition to an aesthetically pleasing Optics achieved a stable fixation of the wing.

The actuator is flexible, since such an operation by train At any area of the actuating element is possible without a certain handle height or the like must be provided mandatory. This is for persons of different body size, a gripping of the actuating element in each of their comfortable height and position possible. A flexible actuator can be most easily and cost-effectively realized by a rope, the preferred because of its stability and extensive wear resistance Steel rope can be.

The rotary vane system shown in Figs. 1 to 4 consists of a rotary wing 1, which is pivotable about an axis of rotation, not shown, in a system frame is stored. The depicted embodiment is itself to a sliding vane system, the next to the shown rotary wing 1 more Sliding blades, not shown, arranged on the left of the rotary wing 1 are. For sliding storage of the sliding blades is the system frame therefore as the top and bottom of the rotary wing 1 and the sliding blades extending profile rail 2 is formed.

The rotary wing 1 has a glass pane in the illustrated embodiment formed surface element 3, which at its top and bottom in a Mount 4 is held. In the enclosure 4 there are two in FIG. 5 to 8 in more detail shown latch 5, which is perpendicular through a between them the surface element 3 tensioned operating cable 6 are connected. Will the operation cable 6 in the direction of the arrow 7 (FIGS. 2 and 3) of the surface element 3 pulled away, so move the bars 5 on the surface element 3 and enter the rotary wing 1 to an opening and pivoting free. Because the control cable 6 and the latch 5 in the illustrated embodiment part of the rotary wing 1, it is also at the same time a Aufschwenkbewegung the Turntable 1 introduced, as shown in FIG. 3.

In contrast to previously known systems in which the bars are usually laterally are placed on the enclosure, are in the Invention the bolt 5 in extension of the surface element 3 above and arranged below and slidably guided in the enclosure 4, as in particular Figs. 5 to 8 show. This arrangement of the bolt 5 provides the bars both good protection against the weather, pollution, etc., and it is Also visually very appealing, since the bolt 5 with closed rotary vane system are not visible. For sliding vane systems like the one pictured can the unilaterally open rail 2 simultaneously serve as a recess into which the bolt 5 in the locked position intervene so that no further optically disturbing elements like Eyelets, hooks or clips are attached to the outside of the system frame have to.

The upper and lower enclosure 4 preferably has at least one side a cover profile 8, which simplifies the assembly of the internal parts only finally put on or e.g. can be locked. The cover profile 8 each has an opening 9 through which the operating cable 6 extends. The so hidden arrangement of the bolt 5 gives the rotary vane system In addition, an attractive look, as of the entire latch assembly only the actuator is visible. Is this preferably a filigree Steel or plastic rope, so it almost completely visually appears and disturbs in particular in systems with surface elements 3 made of glass not the transparent one Impression.

In Figs. 5 and 6, the cover profile is translucent only by dot-dash lines Lines indicated, so that the height displacement of the bolt 5 in the enclosure 4 can be seen. The operating cable 6 is in this case with an end-side Thickening 10 in a corresponding eyelet 11 at the foot of the bolt. 5 hooked. This also allows for easy assembly of the latch assembly on site when installing the rotary vane system.

Figs. 7 and 8 show in detail the arrangement of the bolt 5 and its engagement in the rails 2. In a flexible actuator such as the operating cable 6, which can pass only train, but no pressure forces, it is necessary to bring the latch 5 for locking again in the locked position. For this purpose, each bar 5 is a compression spring 12 associated with the latch 5 at Relief of the operating cable 6 pushes out of the enclosure 4. In the Locking position of the bolt 5, the enclosure 4 so far beyond that in the opening 13 of the rail 2 can engage. Figs. 7 and 8 also show dash-dotted the leadership of the rotary wing 1 in the rails 2 by the rotation axis forming guide rollers 14 and guide pins 15th

So that when closing the rotary wing 1 not again the operating cable 6 must be pulled, the latch 5 are at their emerging from the enclosure 4 End each provided with a sliding bevel 16, which is the bolt automatically pushes back into the enclosure 4, when closing the rotary wing 1 by striking the rail 2 with its edge 17 against the Sliding 16 pressure is exerted on this.

Preferably, the rails 2 and the enclosure 4 for stability reasons made of metallic materials. One in motion noisy and wear-sensitive touch of metal elements To avoid metal elements, the latch 5 should then preferably made made of a plastic or other material with similar properties become.

The use of the lock described is of course limited not on the specific embodiment. It can e.g. also pure Sliding wing systems according to the invention designed to be lockable. Also For example, sliding vane systems on each sliding vane having such a lock, wherein the latch then preferably the non-swinging side of the sliding blades are arranged and can serve as a rotation axis at the same time by only in the locked position prevent displacement, a pivoting of the sliding sash however, allow. Finally, it should be emphasized that the system framework The system according to the invention does not necessarily have to be a separate part. It can also be an integral part of the building carrying the system and e.g. be formed by the masonry.

In summary, the wing system according to the invention is characterized a very easy operability, attractive appearance and low wear out. The fittings used are low-maintenance, weather-resistant, miscafe and rattle free.
