Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen elektrischen Torantrieb zum Öffnen und Schließen eines ein- oder mehrteiligen Torblatts, das bei einer Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung in im Wesentlichen horizontalen Laufschienen geführt ist. Das Torblatt kann beispielsweise ein mehrteiliges Torblatt eines Sektionaltores oder ein einteiliges Torblatt eines Schwingtores sein.The invention relates to an electric door drive for opening and closing a single or multi-part door leaf, which is guided in an opening and closing movement in substantially horizontal rails. The door leaf may for example be a multi-part door leaf of a sectional door or a one-piece door leaf of a swing gate.

Es sind Tore bekannt, die ein mehrteiliges Torblatt bzw. ein Sektionaltorblatt aufweisen und bei denen der Torantrieb in Form eines Antriebsmotors verwirklicht ist, der an einem Paneel des Sektionaltorblattes fest angeschlossen ist. Bei einer Öffnungs- oder Schließbewegung des Torblattes wird dieser Antriebsmotor mit einem Laufrad in einer Schiene geführt ( EP-A 0 222 204 ). Diese vorbekannten Garagentore zeichnen sich durch Nachteile aus. Bei einer Öffnungs- oder Schließbewegung treten häufig leicht mechanische Zwänge zwischen den Bauelementen auf, die ein funktionssicheres Öffnen oder Schließen des Torblattes behindern können. Für einen verfahrbaren Antriebsmotor sind aufwendige und komplizierte Führungen erforderlich.There are known goals, which have a multi-part door leaf or a Sektionaltorblatt and in which the door drive is realized in the form of a drive motor which is firmly connected to a panel of Sektionaltorblattes. During an opening or closing movement of the door leaf, this drive motor is guided with an impeller in a rail ( EP-A 0 222 204 ). These prior art garage doors are characterized by disadvantages. In an opening or closing movement often occur easily mechanical constraints between the components, which can hinder a reliable opening or closing of the door leaf. For a movable drive motor complex and complicated guides are required.

Aus EP 0 523 630 A1 ist ein elektrischer Antrieb für Sektionaltore bekannt, der sich für um einen Bogen und in gerader Richtung verfahrbare Schiebetore eignet. Das bei einer Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung des Tores mitfahrende Antriebsaggregat ist an einem Flügel des Tores drehbar gelagert, so dass es Bahnkrümmungen folgen kann. Das Antriebszahnrad des Motors greift in einen Zahnriemen ein, der mit einem Abstand zu einer Laufschiene des Tores gespannt ist und im Bogen von einer Konsole gestützt wird.Out EP 0 523 630 A1 An electric drive for sectional doors is known, which is suitable for a bow and in a straight direction movable sliding gates. The drive unit, which moves along during an opening and closing movement of the door, is rotatably mounted on a wing of the door, so that it can follow path curvatures. The drive gear of the motor engages in a toothed belt, which is stretched at a distance from a running rail of the gate and is supported in the arc by a console.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen elektrischen Torantrieb zum Öffnen oder Schließen eines ein- oder mehrteiligen Torblatts anzugeben, bei dem eine einfache und wenig aufwendige Führung und Abstützung eines verfahrbaren Antriebsmotors verwirklicht ist und bei dem eine problemlose und funktionssichere Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung des Torblatts möglich ist.The invention has for its object to provide an electric door drive for opening or closing a single or multi-part door leaf, at a simple and inexpensive guide and support of a movable drive motor is realized and in which a trouble-free and reliable opening and closing movement of the door leaf is possible.

Gegenstand der Erfindung und Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist ein elektrischer Torantrieb mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1 zum Öffnen und Schließen eines ein- oder mehrteiligen Torblatts, das bei einer Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung in im Wesentlichen horizontalen Laufschienen geführt ist.The invention and solution to this problem is an electric door drive with the features of claim 1 for opening and closing a single or multi-part door leaf, which is guided in an opening and closing movement in substantially horizontal rails.

An mindestens einer Laufschiene ist ein flexibles Strangelement vorgesehen. Der Torantrieb weist einen Antriebsmotor mit einem Antriebsrad auf, das in der Laufschiene geführt ist und vom Strangelement teilweise umschlungen ist. Bei einer Antriebsbewegung des Antriebsrades ist der Antriebsmotor durch Formschluss mit dem Strangelement längs der Laufschiene verfahrbar. Durch das Verfahren des Antriebsmotors wird die Öffnungs- oder Schließbewegung des Torblatts verursacht.At least one rail, a flexible strand element is provided. The door drive has a drive motor with a drive wheel, which is guided in the track rail and is partially wrapped by the strand element. In a drive movement of the drive wheel of the drive motor can be moved by positive engagement with the strand element along the track rail. By the method of the drive motor, the opening or closing movement of the door leaf is caused.

Das Strangelement ist so ausgelegt, dass die der Laufschiene zugewandte Unterseite des Strangelementes mit der Oberfläche des Antriebsrades durch Formschluss wechselwirkt. Das Strangelement ist 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. Dabei ist eine Zahnung des Zahnriemens an der der Laufschiene zugewandten Unterseite des Zahnriemens vorgesehen. Der Zahnriemen wird unter Vorspannung gesetzt.The strand element is designed so that the running rail facing the underside of the strand element interacts with the surface of the drive wheel by positive engagement. The strand element is a toothed belt. The drive wheel is designed as a pinion or gear, so that the drive motor in a rotation of the pinion by positive engagement between the pinion and the toothed belt along the track rail is movable. In this case, a toothing of the toothed belt is provided on the underside of the toothed belt facing the running rail. The timing belt is put under pretension.

Erfindungsgemäß weist der Antriebsmotor zumindest zwei Führungsrollen auf, wobei das Antriebsrad in der Mitte zwischen beiden Führungsrollen angeordnet ist. Mit Hilfe dieser Führungsrollen wird eine sehr effektive Führung und Abstützung des Antriebsmotors auf der Laufschiene erreicht. Außerdem unterstützen die Führungsrollen den Formschluss zwischen dem Antriebsrad und dem Strangelement.According to the invention, the drive motor has at least two guide rollers, wherein the drive wheel is arranged in the middle between the two guide rollers. With the help of these leadership roles is a very effective leadership and Supported the drive motor on the track reached. In addition, the guide rollers support the positive connection between the drive wheel and the strand element.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführung der Erfindung ist an dem Antriebsmotor zumindest ein Führungsgleitelement für eine Führung des Antriebsmotors an der Laufschiene vorgesehen, der eine Seitenwandung der Laufschiene umfasst. Nach sehr bevorzugter Ausführungsform sind zwei in Längsrichtung der Laufschiene hintereinander angeordnete Führungsgleitelemente vorgesehen. Zweckmäßigerweise ist ein Führungsgleitelement neben einer Führungsrolle vorgesehen. Auch mit Hilfe der Führungsgleitelemente wird eine sehr effektive Abstützung und Führung des Antriebsmotors an der Laufschiene realisiert.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, at least one guide slide element for guiding the drive motor on the running rail, which comprises a side wall of the running rail, is provided on the drive motor. According to a very preferred embodiment, two guide sliding elements arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the running rail are provided. Conveniently, a guide slide is provided in addition to a guide roller. Even with the help of the Führungsgleitelemente a very effective support and guidance of the drive motor is realized on the running rail.

Der Antriebsmotor ist über ein Verbindungselement mit dem oberen Viertel des Torblattes verbunden. Die Angabe "oberes Viertel" bezieht sich dabei auf die vertikale Höhe des Torblattes im geschlossenen Zustand des Tores. Bei dem Verbindungselement handelt es sich beispielsweise um nur eine starre Verbindungsstange, die jeweils über eine Gelenkverbindung an den Antriebsmotor und das Torblatt angeschlossen ist. Über dieses Verbindungselement wirkt der Antriebsmotor bei der Öffnungs- oder Schließbewegung auf das Torblatt ein.The drive motor is connected via a connecting element with the upper quarter of the door leaf. The term "upper quarter" refers to the vertical height of the door leaf in the closed state of the gate. The connecting element is, for example, only one rigid connecting rod, which is connected in each case via an articulated connection to the drive motor and the door leaf. About this connecting element of the drive motor acts on the door leaf during the opening or closing movement.

Der Antriebsmotor weist vorzugsweise ein selbsthemmendes Getriebe auf, um sicherzustellen, dass das Torblatt von außen nicht ausgedrückt werden kann.The drive motor preferably has a self-locking gear to ensure that the door leaf can not be expressed from the outside.

Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass eine problemlose, zwanglose und funktionssichere Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung eines Torblattes möglich ist, wenn die Lehre gemäß Patentanspruch 1 verwirklicht wird. Diese zwanglose Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung wird zudem auf sehr einfache und wenig aufwendige Weise erreicht. Aufgrund der besonderen Ausgestaltung des Antriebsmotors und der zugehörigen Bauelemente ist es möglich, dass der Antriebsmotor nur in einer einzigen Laufschiene geführt und abgestützt wird. Im Gegensatz zu den aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Maßnahmen entfallen somit aufwendige Führungs- und Abstützmaßnahmen an anderen Bauelementen des Tores. Im Übrigen wird der Antriebsmotor während des Öffnungs- oder Schließvorgangs lediglich horizontal verfahren. Vertikale Führungsabschnitte für den Antriebsmotor sind nicht vorhanden. Auch dies unterstützt ein funktionssicheres und fehlerfreies Öffnen und Schließen des Tores. Der Antriebsmotor kann bei der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung über vorzugsweise nur ein einziges Verbindungselement, z. B. eine Verbindungsstange, am oberen Bereich des Torblattes angeschlossen werden. Dabei ist es möglich, dass das Verbindungselement bzw. die Verbindungsstange nur relativ kurz ausgeführt wird. Dies wiederum bedingt, dass der Abstand des Antriebsmotors zum obersten Paneel im geöffneten Zustand des Tores nur sehr gering ist. Dadurch kann gegenüber den bekannten Toren die Laufschiene, in der der Antriebsmotor geführt wird, in vorteilhafter Weise kürzer ausgebildet werden.The invention is based on the finding that a trouble-free, informal and functionally reliable opening and closing movement of a door leaf is possible when the teaching according to claim 1 is realized. This easy opening and closing movement is also very easy and little achieved in a complex manner. Due to the special design of the drive motor and the associated components, it is possible that the drive motor is guided and supported only in a single rail. In contrast to the measures known from the prior art thus eliminates complex management and support measures on other components of the door. Incidentally, the drive motor is moved only horizontally during the opening or closing operation. Vertical guide sections for the drive motor are not available. This also supports a functionally reliable and error-free opening and closing of the gate. The drive motor can in the embodiment according to the invention via preferably only a single connecting element, for. As a connecting rod to be connected to the upper portion of the door leaf. It is possible that the connecting element or the connecting rod is made only relatively short. This in turn requires that the distance of the drive motor to the top panel in the open state of the door is very low. As a result, compared with the known gates, the running rail in which the drive motor is guided can advantageously be made shorter.

The door leaf 1 consists of hinged panels 2, 3, which are guided with wheels 4, 5 in both sides of the door leaf 1 arranged rails 6, 7. There is provided an electric door drive with a drive motor 8 for opening and closing the door leaf 1.

Das Laufrad 4 des obersten Paneels 2 wird in einer im Wesentlichen horizontalen oberen Laufschiene 6 geführt, während die Laufräder 5 der übrigen Paneele 3 in einer unteren Laufschiene 7 geführt werden, die als Bogenschiene ausgebildet ist. Diese Bogenschiene weist einen zur Torzarge 22 parallelen vertikalen Abschnitt 9 sowie einen unterhalb der oberen Laufschiene 6 angeordneten horizontalen Abschnitt 10 auf, wobei die beiden Abschnitte 9, 10 über einen Bogen 11 verbunden sind.The impeller 4 of the top panel 2 is guided in a substantially horizontal upper running rail 6, while the wheels 5 of the remaining panels 3 are guided in a lower running rail 7, which is formed as a curved rail. This sheet rail has a parallel to the door frame 22 vertical portion 9 and arranged below the upper rail 6 horizontal portion 10, wherein the two sections 9, 10 are connected via a sheet 11.

Vor allem in den Figuren 2 und 3 ist erkennbar, dass an der oberen Laufschiene 6 bzw. auf dem Laufschienenboden 12 ein längs der oberen Laufschiene 6 verlaufendes flexibles und von der oberen Laufschiene 6 abhebbares Strangelement vorgesehen ist. Dieses Strangelement ist im Ausführungsbeispiel als Zahnriemen 13 ausgebildet. Der Antriebsmotor 8 ist erfindungsgemäß lediglich in einer Laufschiene geführt und zwar im Ausführungsbeispiel in der oberen Laufschiene 6. Hierzu weist der Antriebsmotor 8 ein Antriebsrad auf, das als Ritzel 14 ausgebildet ist. Das Ritzel 14 ist in der oberen Laufschiene 6 geführt und ist unterhalb des Strangelementes bzw. im Ausführungsbeispiel unterhalb des Zahnriemens 13 angeordnet. Bei einer Antriebsbewegung bzw. Rotation des Antriebsrades bzw. Ritzels 14 ist der Antriebsmotor insbesondere durch Formschluss des Ritzels 14 mit der der Laufschiene zugewandten gezahnten Unterseite des Zahnriemens 13 längs der oberen Laufschiene 6 verfahrbar. Der Zahnriemen 13 ist also mit seiner gezahnten Oberfläche zum Laufschienenboden 12 hin orientiert. Insbesondere in der Fig. 2 ist erkennbar, dass bei einer Bewegung des Antriebsmotors 8 längs der oberen Laufschiene 6 am Ort des Ritzels 14 der Zahnriemen 13 stets von dem Laufschienenboden 12 abgehoben ist und über das Ritzel 14 läuft. Zur Führung des Antriebsmotors 8 in der oberen Laufschiene 6 sind 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 über den ungezahnten glatten Rücken des Zahnriemens 13.Especially in the Figures 2 and 3 It can be seen that on the upper rail 6 and on the rail base 12, a along the upper rail 6 extending flexible and liftable from the upper rail 6 strand element is provided. This strand element is formed in the embodiment as a toothed belt 13. According to the invention, the drive motor 8 is merely guided in a running rail and in the exemplary embodiment in the upper running rail 6. For this purpose, 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 is arranged below the strand element or in the embodiment below the toothed belt 13. At a Drive movement or rotation of the drive wheel or pinion 14, the drive motor in particular by positive engagement of the pinion 14 with the running rail facing toothed underside of the toothed belt 13 along the upper running rail 6 movable. The toothed belt 13 is thus oriented with its toothed surface to the rail bottom 12 out. Especially in the Fig. 2 It can be seen that during a movement of the drive motor 8 along the upper running rail 6 at the location of the pinion 14, the toothed belt 13 is always lifted off the rail base 12 and runs over the pinion 14. To guide the drive motor 8 in the upper rail 6 also running on the strand element guide rollers 15 are also provided. These guide rollers 15 are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the running rail 6 on both sides of the pinion 14 and run over the ungezahnten smooth back of the toothed belt 13th

Vorzugsweise und im Ausführungsbeispiel sind an dem Antriebsmotor 8 zwei Führungsgleitelemente 16 für eine Führung des Antriebsmotors 8 an der oberen Laufschiene 6 vorgesehen. Diese Führungsgleitelemente 16 befinden sich gemäß Fig. 2 vor den Führungsrollen 15, was in Fig. 2 gestrichelt angedeutet wurde. In der Fig. 3 ist erkennbar, dass ein Führungsgleitelement 16 vorzugsweise eine von dem Laufschienenboden 12 ausgehende Seitenwandung 17 der oberen Laufschiene 6 innen- und außenseitig umfasst. Fig. 3 zeigt weiterhin, dass die obere Laufschiene 6 als Hohlprofil ausgebildet ist, welches lediglich an einer Längsseite geöffnet ist. An dieser Längsseite fassen das Ritzel 14 sowie die Führungsrollen 15 in die obere Laufschiene 6 ein.Preferably and in the exemplary embodiment, two guide sliding elements 16 are provided on the drive motor 8 for guiding the drive motor 8 on the upper running rail 6. These guide sliding elements 16 are according to Fig. 2 in front of the guide rollers 15, what in Fig. 2 indicated by dashed lines. In the Fig. 3 It can be seen that a guide slide element 16 preferably comprises a side wall 17 of the upper slide rail 6 which extends from the slide rail bottom 12 on the inside and outside. Fig. 3 further shows that the upper running rail 6 is formed as a hollow profile, which is open only on one longitudinal side. On this longitudinal side, the pinion 14 and the guide rollers 15 engage in the upper running rail 6.

In den Figuren 1, 2 und 4 ist erkennbar, dass der Antriebsmotor 8 über lediglich ein Verbindungselement mit dem Torblatt 1 verbunden ist. Bei diesem Verbindungselement handelt es sich um eine starre Verbindungsstange 18, die mit Verbindungsgelenken 19, 20 einerseits am Torblatt 1 und andererseits am Antriebsmotor 8 angelenkt ist. Vorzugsweise weist die Verbindungsstange 18 keine weiteren Gelenkverbindungen auf. In den Figuren 1, 2 und 4 ist erkennbar, dass die Verbindungsstange 18 verhältnismäßig kurz ausgeführt werden kann. Das ist aufgrund des funktionssicheren erfindungsgemäßen Antriebs möglich, ohne dass durch die geringe Länge der Verbindungsstange 18 eine problemlose Öffnungs- oder Schließbewegung beeinträchtigt wird. Fig. 4 zeigt, dass wegen der geringen Länge der Verbindungsstange 18 auch der Abstand des Antriebsmotors 8 zu dem obersten Paneel 2 relativ gering ist, so dass die obere Laufschiene 6 gegenüber den entsprechenden aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Laufschienen kürzer ausgeführt werden kann. - Die Verbindungsstange 18 ist zweckmäßigerweise und im Ausführungsbeispiel im (bezogen auf die Höhe des Torblattes 1 im geschlossenen Zustand) oberen Viertel des Torblattes 1 angeschlossen bzw. ist hier an das oberste Paneel 2 des Torblattes 1 angeschlossen.In the FIGS. 1 . 2 and 4 it can be seen that the drive motor 8 is connected via only one connecting element with the door leaf 1. In this connecting element is a rigid connecting rod 18, with the connection joints 19, 20 on the one hand on the door leaf 1 and on the other hand Drive motor 8 is articulated. Preferably, the connecting rod 18 on no other joints. In the FIGS. 1 . 2 and 4 it can be seen that the connecting rod 18 can be made relatively short. This is possible due to the functionally reliable drive according to the invention, without a small opening or closing movement being impaired by the short length of the connecting rod 18. Fig. 4 shows that because of the small length of the connecting rod 18 and the distance of the drive motor 8 to the uppermost panel 2 is relatively low, so that the upper running rail 6 can be made shorter compared to the corresponding known from the prior art rails. - The connecting rod 18 is suitably connected and in the embodiment in (relative to the height of the door leaf 1 in the closed state) upper quarter of the door leaf 1 and is here connected to the top panel 2 of the door panel 1.

Nach sehr bevorzugter Ausführungsform und im Ausführungsbeispiel ist bei einer Schließbewegung des Torblattes 1 das an das oberste Paneel 2 angeschlossene Laufrad 4 in einen vertikalen Endabschnitt 21 der oberen Laufschiene 6 hineinziehbar. Bei einer Öffnungsbewegung des Torblattes 1 muss das Laufrad 4 somit zunächst eine kurze vertikale Strecke überwinden, bevor es in den horizontalen Teil der oberen Laufschiene 6 gelangt. Mit Hilfe des vertikalen Endabschnittes 21 wird in Kombination mit der Selbsthemmung des Getriebes des Antriebsmotors 8 gewährleistet, dass das oberste Paneel 2 gegen ein unbefugtes Aufdrücken von außen gesichert ist.After a very preferred embodiment and in the embodiment, the connected to the top panel 2 impeller 4 can be pulled into a vertical end portion 21 of the upper rail 6 in a closing movement of the door leaf. During an opening movement of the door leaf 1, the impeller 4 thus first has to overcome a short vertical distance before it enters the horizontal part of the upper running rail 6. With the help of the vertical end portion 21 is ensured in combination with the self-locking of the transmission of the drive motor 8 that the top panel 2 is secured against unauthorized pressing from the outside.

In der Fig. 2 ist außerdem erkennbar, dass der Zahnriemen 13 einerseits am vorderen Ende und andererseits am hinteren Ende der oberen Laufschiene 6 befestigt ist. Einer der Befestigungspunkte ist zweckmäßigerweise bezüglich seiner Lage variabel, so dass der Zahnriemen 13 unter eine gewünschte Vorspannung gesetzt werden kann.In the Fig. 2 It can also be seen that the toothed belt 13 is fastened on the one hand to the front end and on the other hand to the rear end of the upper running rail 6. One of the attachment points is expediently with respect to its position variable, so that the toothed belt 13 can be set under a desired bias.

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 synchronisierbar.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 can be electronically synchronized.
