Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sektionaltor mit einem aus gelenkig verbundenen Paneelen bestehenden mehrteiligen Torblatt gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1. Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Sektionaltor handelt es sich insbesondere um ein Garagentor.The invention relates to a sectional door with a multi-part door panel consisting of articulated panels according to the preamble of claim 1. The sectional door according to the invention is in particular a garage door.

Bei einem bekannten Sektionaltor der eingangs genannten Art ( EP-B 0 222 300 ) weist der Torantrieb einen am obersten Paneel des Torblattes montierten Antriebsmotor auf, der das in einer horizontalen oberen Laufschiene geführte Laufrad des obersten Paneels antriebt. Der Antrieb erfolgt mittelbar durch ein auf der Laufradwelle drehbar angeordnetes Ritzel, das von dem Antriebsmotor angetrieben wird und mit einem Profil auf der Laufschiene kämmt. Dieses bekannte Sektionaltor weist den Nachteil auf, dass das Torblatt an dem obersten Paneel von außen zur Garageninnenseite hin leicht aufgedrückt werden kann. Dadurch wird unbefugten bzw. unerwünschten Personen das Eindringen in die Garage ermöglicht. Fernerhin ist ein Sektionaltor bekannt ( DE-A 198 08 696 ) bei dem alle Paneele in seitlichen Bogenschienen geführt sind, die einen im Wesentlichen vertikalen Abschnitt parallel zur Torzarge, einen horizontalen Abschnitt und einen die beiden Abschnitte verbindenden Bogen aufweisen. Der elektrische Torantrieb ist mit einer an dem horizontalen Abschnitt der Bogenschiene entlang verfahrbaren Antriebseinheit ausgerüstet, die durch eine Kupplungsstange mit dem obersten Paneel des Torblattes verbunden ist. Auch dieses bekannte Sektionaltor hat jedoch den Nachteil, dass das Torblatt an dem obersten Paneel von außen zur Garageninnenseite hin relativ leicht aufgedrückt werden kann.In a known sectional door of the aforementioned type ( EP-B 0 222 300 ), the door drive on a mounted on the top panel of the door leaf drive motor, which drives the guided in a horizontal upper track rail impeller of the top panel. The drive is effected indirectly by a rotatably mounted on the impeller shaft pinion, which is driven by the drive motor and meshes with a profile on the track rail. This known sectional door has the disadvantage that the door leaf on the top panel from the outside to the inside of the garage can be easily pushed. This allows unauthorized persons to enter the garage. Furthermore, a sectional door is known ( DE-A 198 08 696 ) in which all the panels are guided in lateral curved rails, which have a substantially vertical portion parallel to the door frame, a horizontal portion and an arc connecting the two sections. The electric door drive is equipped with a movable along the horizontal portion of the sheet rail drive unit which is connected by a coupling rod with the top panel of the door leaf. However, this known sectional door has the disadvantage that the door leaf on the top panel from the outside to the inside of the garage can be pressed relatively easily.

Aus EP 0 523 630 A1 ist ein Antrieb für Sektionaltore bekannt, der sich für um einen Bogen und in gerader Richtung verfahrbare Schiebetore eignet. Ein mitfahrendes Antriebsaggregat ist an einem Flügel des mehrgliedrigen Tores so gelagert, dass es den Bahnkrümmungen folgen kann. Ein Antriebszahnrad des Motors greift in einen Zahnriemen ein, der an den Enden ortsfest gespannt ist und im Bogen von einer Konsole gestützt wird. Die Antriebsanordnung weist keine besonderen Maßnahmen auf, um das unbefugte Aufdrücken des Tores zu verhindern.Out EP 0 523 630 A1 a drive for sectional doors is known, which is suitable for a bow and in a straight direction movable sliding gates. A traveling drive unit is mounted on a wing of the multi-member door so that it can follow the path curvatures. A drive gear of the motor engages in a toothed belt, which is clamped at the ends stationary and is supported in the arc of a console. The drive assembly has no special measures to prevent the unauthorized pressing of the door.

Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung das technische Problem zugrunde, ein Sektionaltor der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, das gegen ein unbefugtes Öffnen von außen optimal gesichert ist und bei dem nichtsdestoweniger eine zwanglose und funktionssichere Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung des Torblattes gewährleistet ist.In contrast, the invention, the technical problem of providing a sectional door of the type mentioned above, which is optimally secured against unauthorized opening from the outside and in which nonetheless an informal and reliable opening and closing movement of the door leaf is guaranteed.

Gegenstand der Erfindung und Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist ein Sektionaltor nach Anspruch 1.The object of the invention and solution of this problem is a sectional door according to claim 1.

Durch ein Verfahren des Antriebsmotors entlang der oberen Laufschiene wird die Öffnungsbewegung oder Schließbewegung des Torblattes ermöglicht. Der Begriff Antriebsmotor meint im Rahmen der Erfindung die gesamte Antriebseinheit mit Elektromotor, Antriebsrad, eventuellen Führungsrollen und dergleichen, die auf der oberen Laufschiene verfahrbar ist. Dass gemäß Patentanspruch 1 der Antriebsmotor im Wesentlichen in dem horizontalen Bereich der oberen Laufschiene verfahrbar ist, meint insbesondere, dass der Antriebsmotor nicht in dem vertikalen Endabschnitt der oberen Laufschiene verfahren wird. Es liegt somit im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass der Antriebsmotor stets eine horizontale Antriebsbewegung vollzieht.By a method of the drive motor along the upper track rail, the opening movement or closing movement of the door leaf is made possible. The term drive motor means in the context of the invention, the entire drive unit with electric motor, drive wheel, any guide rollers and the like, which is movable on the upper track rail. That according to claim 1, the drive motor is substantially movable in the horizontal region of the upper track, means in particular that the drive motor is not moved in the vertical end portion of the upper track rail. It is therefore within the scope of the invention that the drive motor always performs a horizontal drive movement.

Das oberste Paneel des Torblatts ist an beiden Seiten des Torblattes in einer im Wesentlichen horizontalen oberen Laufschiene geführt, die einen vorderen vertikalen Endabschnitt aufweist. Vertikaler Endabschnitt der oberen Laufschiene meint nach bevorzugter Ausführungsform der Erfindung einen exakt vertikal angeordneten Endabschnitt oder einen im Wesentlichen vertikal angeordneten Endabschnitt. Nach einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung erfasst der Begriff "vertikaler Endabschnitt" jedoch auch Endabschnitte, die mit dem horizontalen Abschnitt der oberen Laufschiene einen Winkel größer als 90° und bis zu 120° einschließen.The uppermost panel of the door leaf is guided on both sides of the door leaf in a substantially horizontal upper track, which has a front vertical end portion. Vertical end portion of the upper runner means according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, an exactly vertical end portion or a substantially vertically disposed end portion. According to a further embodiment of the invention, however, the term "vertical end portion" also encompasses end portions which include an angle greater than 90 ° and up to 120 ° with the horizontal portion of the upper track rail.

Das oberste Paneel ist zweckmäßigerweise mit jeweils lediglich einem Laufrad in den oberen Laufschienen geführt. Die weiteren Paneele des Sektionaltores sind mit Laufrädern in einer unteren Laufschiene geführt, die als Bogenschiene ausgebildet ist. Sie weist einen im Wesentlichen vertikalen Abschnitt parallel zur Torzarge sowie einen im Wesentlichen horizontalen Abschnitt direkt unterhalb der oberen Laufschiene auf. Die Bogenschiene ist weiterhin mit einem die beiden genannten Abschnitte verbindenden Bogen ausgestattet.The top panel is suitably performed with only one impeller in the upper rails. The other panels of the sectional door are guided with wheels in a lower rail, which is designed as a curved rail. It has a substantially vertical section parallel to the door frame and a substantially horizontal section directly below the upper track rail. The bow rail is further equipped with a bow connecting the two sections.

Erfindungsgemäß ist an der oberen Laufschiene ein flexibles Strangelement vorgesehen. Der Antriebsmotor weist ein Antriebsrad auf, welches in der oberen Laufschiene geführt ist und vom Strangelement teilweise umschlungen ist. Bei einer Antriebsbewegung des Antriebsrades ist der Antriebsmotor durch Formschluss des Antriebsrades mit dem Strangelement längs der oberen Laufschiene verfahrbar. Das Strangelement ist so ausgebildet, dass die der Laufschiene zugewandte Unterseite des Strangelementes mit der Oberfläche des Antriebsrades durch Formschluss wechselwirkt. Zweckmäßigerweise wird das Strangelement unter Vorspannung gesetzt. Erfindungsgemäß ist das Strangelement ein Zahnriemen. Das Antriebsrad ist als Ritzel bzw. Zahnrad ausgebildet, so dass der Antriebsmotor bei einer Rotation des Ritzels durch Formschluss zwischen dem Ritzel und dem Zahnriemen längs der Laufschiene verfahrbar ist. Die Zahnung des Zahnriemens ist an der der Laufschiene zugewandten Unterseite des Zahnriemens vorgesehen.According to the invention, a flexible strand element is provided on the upper running rail. The drive motor has a drive wheel, which is guided in the upper running rail and is partially looped around by the strand element. In a drive movement of the drive wheel of the drive motor by positive engagement of the drive wheel with the strand element along the upper track rail is movable. The strand element is designed so that the running rail facing the bottom of the strand element interacts with the surface of the drive wheel by positive engagement. Conveniently, the strand element is set under pretension. According to the invention the strand element is a toothed belt. The drive wheel is designed as a pinion or gear, so that the drive motor during a rotation of the pinion through Positive connection between the pinion and the toothed belt along the track rail is movable. The toothing of the toothed belt is provided on the underside of the toothed belt facing the running rail.

Der Antriebsmotor weist zwei Führungsrollen auf, die beim Verfahren des Antriebsmotors auf der der Laufschiene abgewandten Oberseite des Strangelementes entlang laufen. Das Antriebsrad des Antriebsmotors ist in der Mitte zwischen den beiden Führungsrollen angeordnet. Vorzugsweise weist der Antriebsmotor fernerhin zumindest ein Führungsgleitelement, vorzugsweise zwei Führungsgleitelemente auf, die durch einen Formschluss mit der oberen Laufschiene ein funktionssicheres Gleiten des Antriebsmotors an der oberen Laufschiene gewährleisten. Zweckmäßigerweise wird der Formschluss mit der oberen Laufschiene dadurch verwirklicht, dass ein solches Führungsgleitelement eine Seitenwandung der oberen Laufschiene überfasst bzw. umfasst.The drive motor has two guide rollers, which run along the top of the strand element facing away from the running rail in the process of driving the drive motor. The drive wheel of the drive motor is arranged in the middle between the two guide rollers. Preferably, the drive motor furthermore has at least one guide slide element, preferably two guide slide elements, which ensure a functionally reliable sliding of the drive motor on the upper slide rail by a positive connection with the upper slide rail. Conveniently, the positive connection with the upper running rail is realized in that such a guide slide element covers or comprises a side wall of the upper running rail.

Der Antriebsmotor weist vorzugsweise ein selbsthemmendes Getriebe auf. Dadurch wird in Kombination mit den übrigen erfindungsgemäßen Merkmalen sehr wirksam sichergestellt, dass das Torblatt des Sektionaltores von außen nicht aufgedrückt werden kann.The drive motor preferably has a self-locking gear. This ensures very effective in combination with the other features according to the invention that the door leaf of the sectional door can not be pressed from the outside.

Das Verbindungselement zwischen dem Antriebsmotor und dem Torblatt besteht zweckmäßig aus einer starren Verbindungsstange, die über jeweils eine Gelenkverbindung an den Antriebsmotor und vorzugsweise an das oberste Paneel angeschlossen ist. Mit anderen Worten liegt zwischen den beiden genannten Gelenkverbindungen ein gleichsam starrer Abschnitt ohne Gelenke oder flexible Bereiche.The connecting element between the drive motor and the door leaf expediently consists of a rigid connecting rod, which is connected via a respective articulated connection to the drive motor and preferably to the uppermost panel. In other words, between the two mentioned articulated connections, there is a virtually rigid section without joints or flexible areas.

Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass im geschlossenen Zustand des Torblattes ein Aufdrücken des Torblattes von außen zur Garageninnenseite hin effektiv verhindert werden kann, wenn die erfindungsgemäße Lehre verwirklicht wird. Hierzu kommt es zunächst erfindungswesentlich darauf an, dass in der Schließstellung des Torblattes das Laufrad des obersten Paneels in den vertikalen Endabschnitt der oberen Laufschiene eingreift. Zum Aufdrücken des Torblattes wäre somit zunächst eine vertikale Bewegung des genannten Laufrades erforderlich. In Kombination mit dem letztgenannten Merkmal wird die Sicherung gegen unbefugtes Aufdrücken vor allem auch durch das Merkmal realisiert, wonach in der Schließstellung des Torblattes das oberste Paneel über ein Verbindungselement an den lediglich im horizontalen Bereich der Laufschiene angeordneten Antriebsmotors bzw. einer Selbsthemmung des Getriebes des Antriebsmotors wird in Kombination mit den übrigen erfindungsgemäßen Merkmalen ein Aufdrücken des Torblattes an dem obersten Paneel nahezu unmöglich. Hierzu trägt weiterhin effektiv das Verbindungselement bei, welches das Torblatt mit dem an der oberen Laufschiene verfahrbaren Antriebsmotor verbindet. Besondere Vorteile hat in diesem Zusammenhang ein lineares starres Verbindungselement, das lediglich über eine Gelenkverbindung mit dem obersten Paneel verbunden ist und lediglich über eine zweite Gelenkverbindung mit dem Antriebsmotor verbunden ist. Im Ergebnis ist im Gegensatz zu den eingangs beschriebenen bekannten Sektionaltoren bei diesem erfindungsgemäßen Sektionaltor die Gefahr ausgeschlossen, dass das Torblatt durch Druck auf das oberste Paneel von außen aufgeschoben werden kann. Obwohl durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung des Sektionaltores ein unbefugtes Öffnen verhindert werden kann, ist aufgrund der erfindungsgemäßen Ausbildung nichtsdestoweniger eine überraschend zwanglose und funktionssichere Öffnungsbewegung und Schließbewegung des Torblattes möglich, wenn diese von einer befugten Person mittels des elektrischen Torantriebes gewollt initiiert wird.The invention is based on the finding that in the closed state of the door leaf pressing the door leaf from the outside to the garage interior can be effectively prevented when the teaching of the invention is realized. For this purpose, it is essential to the invention that, in the closed position of the door leaf, the impeller of the uppermost panel engages in the vertical end section of the upper running rail. To press the door leaf thus initially a vertical movement of said impeller would be required. In combination with the latter feature, the safeguard against unauthorized pressing is realized above all by the feature, according to which in the closed position of the door leaf, the uppermost panel via a connecting element to the arranged only in the horizontal region of the track drive motor or a self-locking of the transmission of the drive motor is in combination with the other features of the invention a pressing of the door leaf on the topmost panel almost impossible. To this end, further effectively contributes to the connecting element which connects the door leaf with the movable drive motor on the upper running rail. Particular advantages in this context a linear rigid connecting element, which is connected only via a hinge connection with the top panel and is connected only via a second hinge connection with the drive motor. As a result, in contrast to the known sectional doors described above, in this sectional door according to the invention the risk is excluded that the door leaf can be pushed by pressure on the top panel from the outside. Although unauthorized opening can be prevented by the inventive design of the sectional door, a surprisingly casual and functionally reliable opening movement and closing movement of the door leaf is nevertheless possible due to the inventive design, if it is initiated by an authorized person by means of the electric door drive wanted.

Im Übrigen kann das erfindungsgemäße Tor, insbesondere Garagentor, eine Notentriegelung für den Fall eines Stromausfalls aufweisen. Mit Hilfe der Notentriegelung kann die Blockierung aufgehoben werden, die bei einem Stromausfall durch das selbsthemmende Getriebe des Antriebsmotors entsteht. Die Notentriegelung kann beispielsweise über eine durch entsprechenden Bowdenzug am Torblatt betätigbare Kupplung verwirklicht werden. Darüber hinaus besteht zusätzlich die Möglichkeit, durch den Lauf des Antriebes eine Zusatzverriegelung zu betätigen. Schließlich und endlich ist der Torantrieb für eine Verwendung rechts und links des Tores ausgelegt. Insbesondere bei breiten Toren sind an den Laufschienen beidseits des Torblattes Antriebsmotoren vorgesehen, die jeweils über ein Verbindungselement mit dem Torblatt verbunden sind und deren Fahrbewegungen elektronisch synchronisiert werden.Incidentally, the door according to the invention, in particular garage door, have an emergency release in the event of a power failure. With the help of the emergency release, the blockage can be canceled, which arises in the event of a power failure due to the self-locking gearbox of the drive motor. The emergency release can be realized, for example, via a clutch which can be actuated by a corresponding Bowden cable on the door leaf. In addition, there is also the option to operate by the running of the drive an additional lock. Finally, the door operator is designed for use on the right and left of the gate. In particular, with wide gates drive motors are provided on the rails on both sides of the door leaf, which are each connected via a connecting element with the door leaf and their movements are electronically synchronized.

In den Figuren ist ein als Sektionaltor ausgebildetes Garagentor dargestellt, das ein mehrteiliges Torblatt 1 aufweist, welches aus gelenkig verbundenen Paneelen 2, 3 besteht. Das oberste Paneel 2 des Torblattes 1 ist an beiden Seiten des Torblattes 1 mit zumindest einem Laufrad 4 in einer im Wesentlich horizontalen oberen Laufschiene 6 geführt, die einen vorderen vertikalen Endabschnitt 21 aufweist. Der vertikale Endabschnitt weist vorzugsweise eine Länge von zumindest 5 cm auf. Die übrigen Paneele 3 werden in einer unteren Laufschiene 7 geführt, die vorzugsweise und im Ausführungsbeispiel als Bogenschiene ausgeführt ist. Die Bogenschiene weist einen zur Torzarge 22 parallelen vertikalen Abschnitt 9, einen unterhalb der oberen Laufschiene 6 angeordneten horizontalen Abschnitt 10 und einen beide Abschnitt 9, 10 verbindenden Bogen 11 auf.In the figures, a trained as a sectional door garage door is shown, which has a multi-part door leaf 1, which consists of hinged panels 2, 3. The uppermost panel 2 of the door leaf 1 is guided on both sides of the door leaf 1 with at least one impeller 4 in a substantially horizontal upper running rail 6, which has a front vertical end portion 21. The vertical end portion preferably has a length of at least 5 cm. The remaining panels 3 are guided in a lower running rail 7, which is preferably designed and in the embodiment as a curved rail. The curved rail has a vertical section 9 parallel to the door frame 22, a horizontal section 10 arranged below the upper running rail 6, and a sheet 11 connecting both sections 9, 10.

Für eine Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung des Torblattes 1 ist ein Antriebsmotor 8 vorgesehen, der erfindungsgemäß lediglich in dem horizontalen Bereich der oberen Laufschiene 6 verfahrbar ist. Hierzu ist im Ausführungsbeispiel an der oberen Laufschiene 6 bzw. auf dem Laufschienenboden 12 der oberen Laufschiene 6 ein längs der oberen Laufschiene 6 verlaufendes flexibles und von der oberen Laufschiene 6 abhebbares Strangelement vorgesehen, das als Zahnriemen 13 ausgebildet ist. Der Antriebsmotor 8 weist ein Antriebsrad auf, das als Ritzel 14 ausgeführt ist. Das Ritzel 14 ist in der oberen Laufschiene 6 geführt und unterhalb des Strangelementes, d. h. im Ausführungsbeispiel unterhalb des Zahnriemens 13 angeordnet. Bei einer Rotation des Antriebsrades bzw. des Ritzels 14 wird der Antriebsmotor 8 durch Formschluss des Ritzels 14 mit der der Laufschiene zugewandten gezahnten Unterseite des Zahnriemens 13 längs der oberen Laufschiene 6 verfahren. Bei einer Bewegung des Antriebsmotors 8 längs dieser oberen Laufschiene 6 ist am Ort des Ritzels 14 der Zahnriemen 13 stets von dem Laufschienenboden 12 abgehoben und läuft über das Ritzel 14. Zur Führung des Antriebsmotors 8 in der oberen Laufschiene 6 sind vorzugsweise und im Ausführungsbeispiel außerdem zwei auf dem Strangelement laufende Führungsrollen 15 vorgesehen. Diese Führungsrollen 15 sind in Längsrichtung der Laufschiene 6 beidseits des Ritzels 14 angeordnet und laufen im Ausführungsbeispiel über den ungezahnten Rücken des Zahnriemens 13. Die Führungsrollen 15 tragen effektiv zu einer sicheren Führung des Antriebsmotors 8 in der oberen Laufschiene 6 bei und unterstützen fernerhin wirksam den Formschluss zwischen dem Ritzel 14 und dem Zahnriemen 13.For an opening and closing movement of the door leaf 1, a drive motor 8 is provided, which according to the invention is movable only in the horizontal region of the upper running rail 6. For this purpose, in the embodiment on the upper rail 6 and on the rail base 12 of the upper rail 6 a along the upper rail 6 extending flexible and liftable from the upper rail 6 strand element is provided, which is designed as a toothed belt 13. The drive motor 8 has a drive wheel, which is designed as a pinion 14. The pinion 14 is guided in the upper running rail 6 and below the strand element, ie arranged below the toothed belt 13 in the exemplary embodiment. During a rotation of the drive wheel or the pinion 14, the drive motor 8 is moved by positive engagement of the pinion 14 with the running rail facing toothed underside of the toothed belt 13 along the upper rail 6. During a movement of the drive motor 8 along this upper track rail 6, the toothed belt 13 is always lifted off the track base 12 at the location of the pinion 14 and passes over the pinion gear 14. For guiding the drive motor 8 in FIG the upper running rail 6 are preferably and in the embodiment also provided two running on the strand element guide rollers 15. These guide rollers 15 are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the running rail 6 on both sides of the pinion 14 and run in the embodiment on the ungezahnten back of the toothed belt 13. The guide rollers 15 contribute effectively to a secure guidance of the drive motor 8 in the upper track 6 and further support effectively the positive connection between the pinion 14 and the toothed belt 13th

An dem Antriebsmotor 8 sind weiterhin zwei Führungsleitelemente 16 vorgesehen. Diese Führungsgleitelemente 16 befinden sich vor den Führungsrollen 15, was in Fig. 2 gestrichelt angedeutet wurde. In Fig. 3 ist erkennbar, dass ein Führungsgleitelement 16 eine von dem Laufschienenboden 12 ausgehende Seitenwandung 17 der oberen Laufschiene 6 umfasst. In Fig. 3 ist außerdem erkennbar, dass die obere Laufschiene 6 als Hohlprofil ausgebildet ist, das nur an einer Längsseite offen ist. An dieser Längsseite des Hohlprofils fassen das Antriebsrad bzw. Ritzel 14 sowie die Führungsrollen 15 in die obere Laufschiene 6 ein. - Die vorstehend beschriebene Führung und Abstützung des Antriebsmotors 8 in lediglich dem horizontalen Teil der oberen Laufschiene 6 trägt überraschend wirksam dazu bei, dass einerseits in einer Schließstellung des Torblattes 1 das Torblatt 1 an dem obersten Paneel 2 von außen nicht ohne Weiteres zur Garageninnenseite hin aufgedrückt werden kann, dass aber nichtsdestoweniger bei einer gewollten Öffnungs- bzw. Schließbewegung und bei Betätigung des elektrischen Torantriebs ein überraschend zwangloser und funktionssicherer Öffnungs- bzw. Schließvorgang des Torblattes 1 möglich ist.On the drive motor 8 two guide elements 16 are further provided. These guide sliding elements 16 are located in front of the guide rollers 15, what in Fig. 2 indicated by dashed lines. In Fig. 3 It can be seen that a guide sliding element 16 comprises a side wall 17 of the upper running rail 6 which originates from the runner floor 12. In Fig. 3 is also recognizable that the upper running rail 6 is formed as a hollow profile which is open only on one longitudinal side. On this longitudinal side of the hollow profile, the drive wheel or pinion 14 and the guide rollers 15 engage in the upper running rail 6. - The above-described leadership and support of the drive motor 8 in only the horizontal part of the upper rail 6 contributes surprisingly effective in that on the one hand in a closed position of the door leaf 1, the door panel 1 on the top panel 2 from the outside not readily pressed to the garage inside can be that, nevertheless, a surprisingly casual and reliable opening and closing operation of the door leaf 1 is possible at a desired opening or closing movement and actuation of the electric door drive.

Das in Schließstellung oberste Paneel 2 ist über ein Verbindungselement, vorzugsweise eine Verbindungsstange 18, an den Antriebsmotor 8 angeschlossen (Fig. 2). In der Schließstellung des Torblattes 1 greift weiterhin das in der oberen Laufschiene 6 geführte Laufrad 4 des obersten Paneels 2 erfindungsgemäß in den vertikalen Endabschnitt 21 der oberen Laufschiene 6 ein. Wenn das Torblatt 1 geöffnet werden soll, so muss das oberste Paneel 2 zunächst vertikal angehoben werden und dann mit seinem Laufrad 4 in den horizontalen Bereich der oberen Laufschiene 6 überführt werden. Insbesondere wenn nach bevorzugter Ausführungsform der Erfindung der Antriebsmotor selbsthemmend ausgebildet ist bzw. ein selbsthemmendes Getriebe aufweist, ist ein Aufdrücken des Torblattes 1 bzw. des obersten Paneels 2 von außen praktisch nicht möglich.The uppermost in the closed position panel 2 is connected via a connecting element, preferably a connecting rod 18, to the drive motor 8 ( Fig. 2 ). In the closed position of the door leaf 1 continues to run in the upper track rail 6 impeller 4 of the top panel 2 according to the invention in the vertical end portion 21 of the upper track rail 6 a. When the door leaf 1 is to be opened, the uppermost panel 2 must first be lifted vertically and then transferred with its running wheel 4 into the horizontal area of the upper running rail 6. In particular, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the drive motor is self-locking or has a self-locking gear, a pressing of the door leaf 1 and the top panel 2 from the outside is practically impossible.

Die Verbindungsstange 18 ist lediglich über eine erste Gelenkverbindung 19 an das Torblatt und über eine zweite Gelenkverbindung 20 an den Antriebsmotor 8 angeschlossen, im Übrigen aber starr ausgebildet. - Der Winkel α zwischen dem horizontalen Teil der oberen Laufschiene 6 und der Verbindungsstange 18 beträgt vorzugsweise 30 bis 60°, sehr bevorzugt 35 bis 55°. Der Winkel β zwischen dem obersten Paneel 2 in Schließstellung und der Verbindungsstange 18 beträgt zweckmäßigerweise 35 bis 65°, vorzugsweise 40 bis 60°. Die vorgenannten Winkel haben sich zur Verwirklichung der erfindungsgemäßen "Selbstverriegelung" im Schließzustand besonders bewährt.The connecting rod 18 is connected only to the door leaf via a first articulated connection 19 and to the drive motor 8 via a second articulated connection 20, but otherwise rigidly formed. The angle α between the horizontal part of the upper running rail 6 and the connecting rod 18 is preferably 30 to 60 °, very preferably 35 to 55 °. The angle β between the uppermost panel 2 in the closed position and the connecting rod 18 is expediently 35 to 65 °, preferably 40 to 60 °. The above-mentioned angles have proven particularly suitable for realizing the "self-locking" according to the invention in the closed state.

Insbesondere bei breiten Toren sind an den Laufschienen 6 beidseits des Torblattes Antriebsmotoren 8 in der zuvor beschriebenen Weise verfahrbar angeordnet und durch jeweils ein Verbindungselement 18 an eines der oberen Paneele 2, 3 angeschlossen. Die Fahrbewegungen der Antriebsmotoren sind elektronisch synchronisiert.In particular, in the case of wide gates, drive motors 8 are movably arranged in the previously described manner on the rails 6 on both sides of the door leaf and are connected to one of the upper panels 2, 3 by a connecting element 18 in each case. The driving movements of the drive motors are electronically synchronized.
