Description

Field of the Invention

The invention relates to a parallel sliding window or a Parallel sliding door for motorized opening and / or Moving the wing of a window or door relative to the frame.

Parallel sliding windows or parallel sliding doors have become proven to be very favorable for the indoor climate. In particular can be in an exhibition position of the window or door the corresponding interior train can be ventilated, also at unfavorable external weather conditions. By the Exhibiting in parallel ensures that rainwater or snow from the outside is difficult to get into the interior of the room penetrates. If shock ventilation is to be carried out, for example in winter, so the window can be moved and one relatively large ventilation opening can be made.

When opening, the window sash or the door sash shifted relative to the frame parallel, so that all around forms an air gap to the outside air. One is strict parallel arrangement of the window sash or the door sash not mandatory for the frame after the exhibition required. Nevertheless, the term is used below "Parallel exhibition" used.

State of the art

Parallel sliding and tilting windows or doors that are mechanical actuated are well known in the art. In the As a rule, they include at least one wing, a frame and a first and a second carriage, each are attached to the wing. Also include Parallel sliding tilt windows or doors of the conventional Construction one attached to the top of the sash and the frame Issuing facility. With the help of this display device becomes when turning the window handle by 90 ° Parallel sliding tilt window or the parallel sliding tilt door either positively controlled or manually in a tilt position brought. Another turn of the window handle will result that the wing disengages and by hand in a stable Parallel position can be brought. In this Finally, it is possible to position the wing in parallel to move laterally.

However, with the arrangement described, the force for Manual actuation of the opening or sliding mechanism be applied. The same applies to the force required to Moving the window is necessary. Especially at Large windows or doors can be disadvantageous impact.

The limit switches can be concealed or visibly attached to the frame. In particular, the limit switch provided for the "closed" position can be provided with a freewheel so that the guide link can move beyond the actual "closed" position.

Figure 3 shows a section of a middle upper Area of the window construction according to the invention. In particular, in Figure 3, the drive mechanism 18 for the window construction shown. Figure 4 shows one Cross-sectional view of the drive structure 18. In Figure 3 are the most important in the left half of the illustration Elements shown, which, as shown in Figure 1, in Area of the sliding window sash. In the Figure 3 shown right half refers to one Area that, according to Figure 1, in the non-displaceable Area of the window. For Drive unit for the adjustment mechanism of the window belong in the area of the sliding window sash 12 Locking motor that releases a window lock or creates again. The locking motor 24 is over a suitable connecting element 26, such as a flexible Cable transition or similar with the actual one Locking device connected. The cable of the flexible cable transition preferably attached so that it via one or more plugs 27 from the locking motor or the locking device is separable to a to ensure easy assembly and maintenance. This Locking device also includes a middle one Stay scissors 28.

The actual moving of the window is done with the help a driver unit 30, which is carried out by a Drive motor 32 driven toothed belt 34, in this case an endless toothed belt is moved. The endless toothed belt 34 is on the one hand via a pulley, which with the Drive unit 32 is connected, stored, on the other hand he tensioned and held by a belt tensioner 36. Finally, a cable tow 38 is provided to the Power supply for the locking motors and the Sequence circuit for the locking and sliding movement ensure during the displacement movement. It is possible, one for the upper and lower opening scissors common locking motor 24, for example as an upper one Locking motor, to be provided or one each assigned, separate locking motor for the upper or lower stay scissors to provide the window in a To be able to bring intermediate tilt position and overall more Apply force for the exhibiting and sliding movement can.

As an alternative to driving the window via an endless toothed belt can be a V-belt, chains, Ropes or a spindle can be provided.

In the driver unit 30, as shown in FIG. 7 is shown, wire ropes 52 as a current guide and Current collectors can be used instead of a cable drag. In this case, an additional one is expedient Tensioning device 54 is provided for the wire cables.

Figure 5 illustrates a lower area of the window. Two carriages 40, 42 are attached to the window sash 12. The carriages 40, 42 are connected to a corresponding guidance in the context of the shifting movement for sure. A connecting rod 44 is between the carriages intended. On the connecting rod 44 is one Guide link 46 stored, which is a recording for one correspondingly shaped area of a stay scissors (not shown). The stay scissors are on the other hand connected to the frame of the window (not shown).

The guide rod 44 itself is either in one piece or in several parts with corresponding connecting elements designed. A separable arrangement offers the advantage of one easy assembly and maintenance. The separable embodiment the guide rod 44 with a connecting element 45 is in Fig. 6 shown.

Is via the locking motor 24 or the drive motor 32nd a movement of the window sash 12 is initiated, so first the window sash 12 parallel with respect to the Issued frame 14. To do this, the movement into the upper, middle scissors 28 initiated. The lower one Folding scissors (not shown) are placed over the guide rod 44 and guiding link 46 mounted thereon are positively controlled moved, so that the parallel opening of the window is effected.

If the drive motor is actuated again, it will Then push the window forward so that a larger opening of the window that extends vertically across the entire window height extends, is achieved. In particular, this means that in Contrary to conventional, mechanically operated Parallel sliding tilt windows the window without one Intermediate position, mostly realized as a tilt position is brought directly into a parallel position. This happens with the help of a motor, so no force of one User must be expended. Alternatively, through a lower, second motor and a separation of the scissors above and an intermediate tilt position can also be realized below.

The horizontal one initiated by the sequence control The wing is also moved by motor. This means that even after the wing with the help of the engine was moved in parallel, no force of a user to full opening of the window must be applied. Rather, this can also be done by motor.

The result of this is that control is also carried out in this way it can be provided that the windows are opened remotely and be closed, especially in connection with a temperature detection device, so that when Exceeding a certain outside or inside temperature the windows are opened by exhibition.

The essential aspect of the invention is therefore that by providing an additional, simple one Standard element, namely a positively controlled lower Display device in the form of a scissor stay and a Drive unit, a conventional parallel sliding tilt window the shape can be modified that a motor Issuing and moving the window becomes possible without to have to apply mechanical forces by a user. Because only standard components are used such a window is inexpensive to manufacture.
