• a device for driving a belt for a roller shutter in which the belt is rotatably mounted on a disc, which is positioned in a recess of a wall.
• An electric drive motor is provided for raising and lowering the roller shutter, the drive shaft of which engages with a first spur gear.
• the first spur gear is in engagement with a further second spur gear arranged at a greater distance from the wall.
• the two spur gears are each rotatably connected with axially protruding friction tubes that serve as a support surface for the belt.
• the belt In conjunction with a deflection roller arranged offset on the side facing the drive motor, the belt is guided around the rollers in a meandering manner, the friction roller assigned to the second spur gear being positioned such that the belt can run perpendicular to the wall into the recess in the wall , Due to this right-angled orientation of the area of the belt extending from the recess, a braking device can be put out of operation, which usually acts against the winding direction of the spring-tensioned belt in the case of manually operated roller shutters.
• a disadvantage of the known device is that, in order to subsequently install the device, it is necessary to remove a friction roller from the housing so that the belt can be placed on the friction rollers with a changing direction of wrapping.
• the assembly of the device is therefore relatively complex.
• Another disadvantage of the known device is that the mounting location thereof is determined on the basis of the predetermined positioning of the friction roller assigned to the second spur gear. An adaptation to the local conditions is therefore not easily possible. It is therefore an object of the present invention to develop a device for driving a belt for a roller shutter in such a way that, on the one hand, the assembly effort is reduced and, on the other hand, reliable guidance of the belt is ensured.
• the invention in connection with the preamble of claim 1 is characterized in that the belt is folded around at least two co-rotating friction tubes, at least two friction tubes being coupled via a spur gear arranged offset parallel to the axis, and that on one of the Side of the friction rollers facing the wall are each assigned at least one deflecting roller such that, on the one hand, the belt leaves the friction rollers with a parallel extension to the wall and, on the other hand, a section of the belt lying in the winding direction at the front then deflects substantially perpendicularly the recess of the wall is guided.

• the spur gears assigned to at least two friction rollers are coupled indirectly via a further spur gear, so that the friction rollers rotate in the same direction.
• a guide roller assigned to the friction roller has a double function. To the one enables the vertical alignment of the belt to a transverse recess of the housing or to a recess of the wall. A section of the belt lying in front of the foremost friction roller in the winding direction is deflected such that the belt is guided perpendicular to the recess in the wall. On the other hand, it enables a higher degree of wrap around the belt around the friction roller assigned to the guide roller.
• the m winding direction of the belt can be at the front Friction roller to be positioned laterally offset to the transverse recess.

• the pair of friction tubes or spur gears is arranged in such an axis-parallel manner to the vertical wall that the belt is looped around the peripheral surfaces of the friction tubes. In this way, a particularly frictional support of the belt on the friction tubes can advantageously be created.

This enables a greater degree of looping of the belt, which enables the belt to be guided safely and reliably.
• the spur gears arranged in pairs and each associated with a friction roller are directly coupled to a drive pinion of the drive motor, the central axes of the spur gears being oriented essentially at right angles to the direction of extent of the belt.
• Deflection pulleys oriented at an acute angle to the spur gears enable the belt to be twisted in the longitudinal direction thereof.
• Both embodiments of the device according to the invention have in common that the belt is looped around the friction rollers, the central axes of the friction rollers forming an extension plane which is arranged parallel to the wall. Because the belt encompasses the friction rollers in a single wrap direction, the device according to the invention can be assembled without having to remove components of the device.
