Description

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist eine Laufwerkanordnung für eine Schiebetür gemäss Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a drive arrangement for a sliding door according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Laufwerkanordnungen für Schiebetüren sind in mannigfaltigen Ausführungen bekannt. Eine solche bekannte Ausführungsform umfasst eine Gehäuseaufnahme, welche in eine Topfbohrung am oberen Rand der Schiebetür einschiebbar und mittels Schrauben oder dergleichen an der Schiebetür befestigt werden kann. In den zentralen, meist kreisringförmigen Aufnahmeteil wird ein scheibensegmentförmiges Gehäuse eingeschoben, an dessen Oberseite das Laufwerk befestigt ist. Das Laufwerk kann aus Gleitern bestehen oder bei höherwertigen Ausführungen aus einem oder zwei Rollenpaaren, welche dazu bestimmt sind, in einer Führungsschiene abzurollen.Drive arrangements for sliding doors are known in various designs. Such a known embodiment comprises a housing receptacle, which can be inserted into a pot bore at the upper edge of the sliding door and fastened by means of screws or the like on the sliding door. In the central, usually annular receiving part a disk-segment-shaped housing is inserted, at the top of the drive is attached. The drive may consist of sliders or, in the case of higher-end versions, one or two pairs of rollers which are intended to unroll in a guide rail.

Aus der DE-A1 2546384 ist ein Aufhängebeschlag für Schiebetüren bekannt, bei dem in einer Befestigungsplatte ein Halteklötzchen vertikal durch eine Stellschraube verschiebbar gelagert ist. Am Halteklötzchen ist unverschiebbar ein Laufwerk befestigt. Mit einer Schraube mit Sechskantkopf kann das Klötzchen in vertikaler Richtung in der Befestigungsplatte verschoben und damit das Laufwerk justiert werden. Für die Justierung wird ein Werkzeugschlüssel benötigt.
Weiter ist aus der DE-U1 8717341 eine Duschabtrennung mit einem Laufwerk bekannt. Die Höhenjustierung erfolgt durch eine Rändelschraube, die direkt an einem Gewinde am Laufwerkträger kämmt und in der Befestigungsvorrichtung für das Laufwerk gehalten ist. Befestigungsvorrichtungen der in der obenbezeichneten Schrift offenbarten Gestalt können nicht in Topfbohrungen, wie sie heute üblich sind, eingesetzt werden.From DE-A1 2546384 a suspension fitting for sliding doors is known in which in a mounting plate a Halteklötzchen is mounted vertically displaceable by an adjusting screw. On the holding blocks a drive is fixed immovably. With a hexagon head screw, the block can be moved vertically in the mounting plate to adjust the drive. For the adjustment a tool key is needed.
Further, from DE-U1 8717341 a shower enclosure with a drive known. The height adjustment is done by a knurled screw, which meshes directly with a thread on the drive carrier and is held in the fastening device for the drive. Fasteners of the disclosed in the above-mentioned document shape can not be used in pot bores, as is common today.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Schaffung einer Laufwerkanordnung mit einer vertikalen Justiereinrichtung mit grossem möglichen Hubweg und werkzeugfreier Bedienbarkeit.Object of the present invention is to provide a drive assembly with a vertical adjustment device with a large possible stroke and tool-free operability.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Laufwerkanordnung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1.This object is achieved by a drive arrangement having the features of patent claim 1.

Mit einem aus der Gehäuseaufnahme teilweise herausragenden geriffelten Stellrad kann die Schiebetür nach deren Einbau leicht von Hand einjustiert werden, ohne dass die Bedienungsperson sich in den Schrank hineinzwängen oder ein Werkzeug umständlich "blind" in die Exzenterscheibe einführen muss. Die Justierung kann folglich von aussen vorgenommen werden, indem man mit der Hand hinter die Schiebetür greift und die Stellrad betätigt und gleichzeitig die Justierung der Schiebetür beobachten kann. Die erfindungsgemässe Laufwerkanordnung kann sehr kostengünstig hergestellt werden und die für die Verstellung notwendigen, durch das Gewicht der Schiebetür stark belasteten Teile umfassen eine Gewindestange, z.B. eine handelsübliche Schraube, und das Stellrad, welches eine handelsübliche oder leicht modifizierte Schraubenmutter sein kann. Dieser Verstellmechanismus ist selbsthemmend und es müssen folglich keine Feststellmittel oder dgl. vorgesehen werden bzw. es tritt nach der Einstellung keine Verstellung der einmal angenommenen Position ein.With a partially protruding from the housing receptacle corrugated thumb wheel, the sliding door after installation can be easily adjusted by hand without the operator having to squeeze himself into the cabinet or insert a tool cumbersome "blind" into the eccentric disc. The adjustment can therefore be made from the outside by grabbing by hand behind the sliding door and operated the wheel and at the same time watching the adjustment of the sliding door. The inventive drive assembly can be made very inexpensive and necessary for the adjustment, by the weight of the sliding door heavily loaded parts include a threaded rod, such as a commercially available screw, and the thumbwheel, which may be a commercially available or slightly modified nut. This adjustment mechanism is self-locking and therefore no locking means or the like. Must be provided or occurs after adjustment no adjustment of the once assumed position.

Die in Figur 1 dargestellte Laufwerkanordnung 1 zum Einbau in eine Schiebetür 3 umfasst eine Gehäuseaufnahme 5, ein Laufwerk 7 sowie ein Gehäuse 9, welches das Laufwerk 7 vertikal verschiebbar aufnimmt und in der Gehäuseaufnahme 5 eingesetzt ist.
Die Gehäuseaufnahme 5 umfasst eine Befestigungsplatte 11 mit zwei Befestigungsbohrungen 13, durch welche mittels Schrauben die Gehäuseaufnahme 5 in einer Topfbohrung an der Schiebetür 3 befestigt werden kann. Die Befestigungsplatte 11 weist im Zentrum einen Kragen 15 auf, welcher dazu bestimmt ist, in die Topfbohrung in der Schiebetür 3 einzugreifen und damit die Gehäuseaufnahme 5 spielfrei an der Schiebetür 3 führen. Innerhalb des Kragens 15 sind vier Führungsflächen 17 ausgebildet, deren Flanken paarweise parallel einander gegenüberliegen und als seitliche Führung von ebenfalls parallel liegender Flanken 19 am Gehäuse 9 fungieren. Im Zentrum der Flanken 19 sind Rastmittel 21, z.B. federnd ausgebildete Rastnocken angebracht, welche an entsprechend ausgebildeten Rastelementen 23 einrasten, wenn das Gehäuse 9 axial in die Gehäuseaufnahme 5 eingeschoben wird. Im weiteren umfasst das Gehäuse 9 zwei parallel liegende Führungsflanken 24, welche zur Führung des Laufwerkträgers 25 am Laufwerk 7 dienen. Das Laufwerk 7 ist im vorliegenden Beispiel ein Rollenlaufwerk mit einem Rollenpaar 29, welches mit seiner Achse (nicht sichtbar) in der Ausnehmung 31 eingerastet gehalten wird. Am Laufwerk 7 können seitlich Brems- und/oder Rückhalteschuhe 33 angeformt sein.
In das Gehäuse 9 einsetzbar und in Eingriff mit dem Laufwerk 7 zu gelangen bestimmt, ist eine Gewindestange, im vorliegenden Beispiel eine Schraube 35 mit einem Schraubenkopf 37. Der Schraubenkopf 37 kommt in eine Ausnehmung 30 im Gehäuse 9 zu liegen und wird dort drehfest gehalten. Auf der Schraube 35 sitzt ein Stellrad 39, welches mit dem Gewinde der Schraube 35 kämmt.The drive assembly 1 shown in Figure 1 for installation in a sliding door 3 comprises a housing receptacle 5, a drive 7 and a housing 9, which receives the drive 7 vertically slidably and is inserted into the housing receptacle 5.
The housing receptacle 5 comprises a fastening plate 11 with two fastening bores 13, by means of which the housing receptacle 5 can be fastened in a pot bore on the sliding door 3 by means of screws. The mounting plate 11 has in the center a collar 15, which is intended to engage in the pot bore in the sliding door 3 and thus the housing holder 5 without play on the sliding door 3 lead. Within the collar 15 four guide surfaces 17 are formed, the flanks of which are in pairs opposite each other and act as lateral guidance of also parallel flanks 19 on the housing 9. In the center of the flanks 19 locking means 21, for example resiliently mounted locking cams are mounted, which engage in correspondingly formed locking elements 23 when the housing 9 is axially inserted into the housing receptacle 5. In addition, the housing 9 comprises two parallel guide flanks 24, which serve to guide the drive carrier 25 on the drive 7. The drive 7 is in the present example, a roller drive with a pair of rollers 29, which is held locked with its axis (not visible) in the recess 31. On the drive 7 brake and / or retaining shoes 33 can be formed laterally.
Intended to be used in the housing 9 and to get into engagement with the drive 7, a threaded rod, in the present example, a screw 35 with a screw head 37. The screw head 37 comes to lie in a recess 30 in the housing 9 and is held there against rotation. On the screw 35 sits a thumbwheel 39, which meshes with the thread of the screw 35.

Alternativ kann das Stellrad 39 fest mit der Gewindestange 35 verbunden sein. Das obere oder das untere Ende der Gewindestange 35 ist in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel (keine Abbildung) in einer Gewindebohrung am Laufwerkträger 25 oder am Gehäuse 9 geführt.Alternatively, the thumbwheel 39 can be firmly connected to the threaded rod 35. The upper or the lower end of the threaded rod 35 is guided in this embodiment (not shown) in a threaded bore on the drive carrier 25 or on the housing 9.

Das Stellrad 39 durchdringt den Laufwerkträger 25 in einer Öffnung 41 und kann dessen Oberfläche um einen geringen Betrag überragen oder, wie aus Figur 7 ersichtlich, in einer konisch verlaufenden Ausnehmung 43 liegen (Figur 8). Geführt wird die Schraube 35 in einer Gewindestangenführung 40 zwischen dem Laufwerk 7 und dem Gehäuse 9, sobald das Gehäuse 9 mit dem darin verschiebbar angeordneten Laufwerkträger 25 in die Gehäuseaufnahme 5 eingeschoben und von den Rastmitteln 21 festgesetzt ist.The setting wheel 39 penetrates the drive carrier 25 in an opening 41 and can project beyond its surface by a small amount or, as can be seen from FIG. 7, lie in a conically running recess 43 (FIG. 8). The screw 35 is guided in a threaded rod guide 40 between the drive 7 and the housing 9 as soon as the housing 9 with the drive carrier 25 displaceably arranged therein is pushed into the housing receptacle 5 and fixed by the latching means 21.

Im folgenden wird die Laufwerkanordnung 1 kurz erläutert. Nach dem werkzeugfreien Zusammensetzen, d.h. Zusammenschieben der einzelnen Teile und dem Einbau in die Schiebetür 3, kann durch Drehen am Stellrad 39 das Laufwerk 9 bezüglich der Schiebetür 3 vertikal verschoben werden. Das Laufwerk 7 liegt, wenn die Schiebetür 3 an einem Schrank (nicht dargestellt) aufgehängt ist, mit der unteren Fläche 45 der Öffnung 41 an der Unterseite des Stellrades 39 an. Durch das Drehen am Stellrad 39 bewegt sich dieses in axialer Richtung auf dem Schaft der Schraube 35. Es kann auf diese Weise die Schiebetür 3 angehoben oder abgesenkt werden.
