Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Dichtung für eine Duschabtrennung, wobei die Duschabtrennung mindestens ein Element, z. B. eine Glasscheibe, aufweist, welches an einer Längskante mit der Dichtung versehen ist, wobei die Dichtung zumindest eine als Anlagefläche dienende, im Wesentlichen ebene Außenfläche aufweist.The invention relates to a seal for a shower enclosure, wherein the shower enclosure at least one element, for. Example, a glass pane, which is provided on a longitudinal edge with the seal, wherein the seal has at least one serving as a contact surface, substantially flat outer surface.

Eine solche Dichtung ist aus der DE 197 00 886 A1 bekannt. Dort ist eine Duschabtrennung erläutert, bei der mindestens ein Element, welches bewegbar oder auch feststehend sein kann, mit einem weiteren Element in Verbindung gelangen kann, z. B. wenn die Tür einer Duschabtrennung zugeschoben wird. Damit im Stossbereich eine flüssigkeitsdichte Verbindung der beiden Elemente gewährleistet ist, sind an den jeweils zueinanderweisenden Stirnseiten der Elemente Dichtungen angebracht. Jede Dichtung weist eine im Wesentlichen ebene Anlagefläche auf, mit der sie mit der Anlagefläche der Dichtung am anderen Element vollflächig in Kontakt treten kann. Da die Elemente je nach Ausgestaltung der Duschabtrennung jedoch unter bestimmten Winkeln, z. B. 90°, 135° oder 180°, aneinanderstoßen können, muss für jeden Winkel eine andere Dichtung bereitgehalten werden, bei der die im Wesentlichen ebene Anlagefläche unter einem entsprechenden Winkel angeordnet ist. Nur so kann ein dichter Abschluss zwischen den beiden Elementen sichergestellt werden. Dies bedeutet aber eine erhöhte Produktvielfalt und damit erhöhte Lager- und Bereitstellungskosten.Such a seal is from the DE 197 00 886 A1 known. There, a shower enclosure is explained, in which at least one element, which may be movable or fixed, can come into contact with another element, for. B. when the door is pushed to a shower enclosure. Thus, a liquid-tight connection of the two elements is ensured in the shock area, seals are attached to the respective facing end faces of the elements. Each seal has a substantially planar contact surface, with which it can contact the contact surface of the seal on the other element over its entire surface. However, depending on the design of the shower enclosure, the elements can be operated at certain angles, eg. B. 90 °, 135 ° or 180 °, can abut, a different seal must be kept ready for each angle, in which the substantially flat contact surface is arranged at a corresponding angle. This is the only way to ensure a tight seal between the two elements. However, this means increased product diversity and thus increased storage and deployment costs.

Die EP 0193905 A2 beschreibt einen Verschluss für eine Duschabtrennung, bei der an den Enden der Flügel je ein um eine senkrechte Achse schwenkbarer, mit einem Magneten versehener Haltearm gelagert ist, bei der die Haltearme in eine sich gegenseitig überlappende Stellung bringbar sind, in der die Magnete die Türflügel in die geschlossene Stellung ziehen.The EP 0193905 A2 describes a closure for a shower enclosure, wherein at the ends of the wings one each about a vertical axis pivotable, provided with a magnet holding arm is mounted, wherein the retaining arms can be brought into a mutually overlapping position in which the magnets pull the door leaf in the closed position.

In der EP 0867585 A2 wird ein Profilteil zur Verbindung flächiger Teile beschrieben, bei der Dichtungsrippen in einem Profil zwei Profilteile aufweisen, die in beliebigen Winkeln zueinander anzuordnen sind. Die Profilteile sind dabei sternförmig aufgebaut.In the EP 0867585 A2 is a profile part for connecting flat parts described in the sealing ribs in a profile have two profile parts, which are to be arranged at any angle to each other. The profile parts are constructed star-shaped.

Die DE 3237291 A1 beschreibt einen Eckanschlag von zwei senkrecht zueinanderstehenden Elementen, von denen das eine ein Schiebeelement und das andere als Gegenanschlag eine feststehende Wand oder ebenfalls ein Schiebeelement ist. Dabei wird sowohl das Schiebeelement als auch sein Gegenanschlag jeweils mit einer Verschlussleiste versehen, wobei mindestens eine der beiden zusammenwirkenden Verschlussleisten, vorzugsweise jedoch beide Verschlussleisten, mit Bewegungsspiel gelagert ist bzw. sind. Die Verschlussleisten sind mit einem Magnetverschluss versehen.The DE 3237291 A1 describes a corner stop of two mutually perpendicular elements, one of which is a sliding element and the other as a counter-stop a fixed wall or a sliding element. In this case, both the sliding element and its counter-stop are each provided with a closure strip, wherein at least one of the two cooperating closure strips, but preferably both closure strips, is or are mounted with play. The closure strips are provided with a magnetic closure.

In der DE 20112394 U ist eine Glasscheibe mit einer Randdichtung beschrieben, die in einer in der Stirnkante der Glasscheibe vorgesehene Nut eingesetzt ist.In the DE 20112394 U a glass sheet is described with an edge seal which is inserted in a groove provided in the front edge of the glass pane.

Weiterhin ist aus der DE 38 38 590 C1 eine Dichtung für eine Duschabtrennung bekannt, bei der die Dichtung eine bogenförmig gewölbte Außenfläche aufweist. Diese Dichtung kann zwar unter einem beliebigen Winkel mit einer anderen Dichtung zusammenkommen, infolge der bogenförmigen Ausgestaltung berühren sich die Dichtungen aber immer nur in einem einzigen Punkt, so dass keine Anlagefläche, sondern nur ein Anlagepunkt gebildet wird. Diese punktförmige Anlage gewährleistet aber nicht immer eine flüssigkeitsdichte Verbindung zwischen den beiden Elementen, so dass Duschwasser aus der Duschabtrennung austreten kann.Furthermore, from the DE 38 38 590 C1 a seal for a shower enclosure, in which the seal has an arcuately curved outer surface. Although this seal can come together at any angle with another seal, due to the arcuate configuration, the seals touch but always only in a single point, so that no contact surface, but only one contact point is formed. But this punctiform system ensures not always a liquid-tight connection between the two elements, so that shower water can escape from the shower enclosure.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Dichtung der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 genannten Art bereitzustellen, die aufgrund ihrer konstruktiven Ausgestaltung in der Lage ist, auch unter verschiedenen Winkeln eine flüssigkeitsdichte Abdichtung sicherzustellen.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a seal referred to in the preamble of claim 1 species, which is due to its structural design in a position to ensure a liquid-tight seal even at different angles.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments emerge from the subclaims.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung hat den Vorteil, dass durch die Anordnung mehrerer Anlageflächen, die im Querschnitt der Dichtung gesehen als Teil eines Vielecks mit mehreren als Anlagefläche dienenden, ebenen Außenflächen ausgebildet sind, so dass ein fast halbkreisförmiger Verlauf entsteht, eine Vielzahl von Winkelstellungen möglich sind, in denen durch eine flächige Anlage der Dichtungen eine flüssigkeitsdichte Verbindung zwischen den jeweiligen Elementen sichergestellt werden kann. Da für all diese unterschiedlichen Winkel nur eine einzige Dichtung erforderlich ist, können die Kosten für die Materialbereitstellung und die Lagerhaltung reduziert werden. Außerdem lässt sich durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung die Zahl der benötigten Ersatzteile erheblich reduzieren.The solution according to the invention has the advantage that, as a result of the arrangement of a plurality of contact surfaces, which are seen in the cross-section of the seal as part of a polygon with a plurality of flat outer surfaces serving as a contact surface, so that an almost semicircular course is created, a plurality of angular positions are possible. in which a liquid-tight connection between the respective elements can be ensured by a flat contact of the seals. Because only a single seal is required for all of these different angles, the cost of stocking and warehousing can be reduced. In addition, can be significantly reduced by the inventive design, the number of required spare parts.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist die Dichtung im Querschnitt gesehen als Teil eines vorzugsweise regelmäßigen Vielecks ausgebildet. Durch diese Maßnahme lässt sich in besonders einfacher Weise eine technisch wie optisch ansprechende und funktionssichere Ausgestaltung der Dichtung erreichen. Grundsätzlich ist es jedoch auch möglich, die Dichtung als unregelmäßiges Vieleck auszubilden.According to an advantageous development, the seal is seen in cross-section as part of a preferably regular polygon. By this measure, a technically and visually appealing and functionally reliable design of the seal can be achieved in a particularly simple manner. In principle, however, it is also possible to form the seal as an irregular polygon.

Damit ein gewisser Zusammenhalt der beiden aneinanderstoßenden Dichtungen gewährleistet ist, ist die Dichtung gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung mit einer Magneteinlage versehen.So that a certain cohesion of the two abutting seals is ensured, the seal is provided according to an advantageous development with a magnetic insert.

Diese Magneteinlage weist nach außen weisende Magnetflächen auf, deren Anzahl gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform mit der Anzahl der ebenen Außenflächen übereinstimmt. Gemäß einer alternativen Ausgestaltung weist die Magneteinlage nach außen weisende Magnetflächen auf, deren Anzahl unterschiedlich zur Anzahl der ebenen Außenflächen ist. Somit kann unter allen Einsatzbedingungen eine optimale Anpassung an die jeweiligen Gegebenheiten erreicht und ein besonders sicherer und fester Zusammenhalt der Dichtung erreicht werden.This magnetic insert has outwardly facing magnetic surfaces, the number of which according to a preferred embodiment coincides with the number of planar outer surfaces. According to an alternative embodiment, the magnet insert has outwardly facing magnetic surfaces whose number is different from the number of planar outer surfaces. Thus, an optimal adaptation to the particular conditions can be achieved under all conditions of use and a particularly secure and firm cohesion of the seal can be achieved.

Damit auch bei z. B. montagebedingten Ungenauigkeiten oder bei Toleranzen ein flüssigkeitsdichter Zusammenhalt und eine vollflächige Anlage der Dichtungen gewährleistet ist, ist die Dichtung vorzugsweise über ein bewegliches Teil mit dem Element, z. B. der Glasscheibe, verbunden. Somit können Toleranzen sicher ausgeglichen und trotzdem ein funktionssicherer Zusammenhalt der Dichtung gewährleistet werden.So that at z. B. assembly-related inaccuracies or tolerances a liquid-tight cohesion and a full-surface conditioning of the seals is ensured, the seal is preferably via a movable part with the element, for. B. the glass, connected. Thus tolerances can be safely compensated and still a functionally reliable cohesion of the seal can be ensured.

Die Ausgestaltung des beweglichen Teiles erfolgt vorzugsweise so, dass das bewegliche Teil einen weichen Bereich aufweist, der mit einem harten Bereich verbunden ist. Auf diese Weise kann eine vollflächige Anlage der jeweiligen Außenflächen auch unter ungünstigen Bedingungen, z. B. montagebedingten Ungenauigkeiten, sichergestellt werden.The design of the movable part is preferably such that the movable part has a soft area which is connected to a hard area. In this way, a full-surface investment of the respective outer surfaces even under unfavorable conditions, eg. As assembly-related inaccuracies are ensured.

Der harte Bereich dient gemäß einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung zur Verbindung, insbesondere mit einer Stirnfläche des Elementes, z. B. der Glasscheibe. Somit ist eine sichere Lagerung bzw. Verbindung der Dichtung mit dem Element möglich, ohne dass die Funktion beeinträchtigt wird.The hard area is used according to a preferred development for connection, in particular with an end face of the element, for. B. the glass. Thus, a secure storage or connection of the seal with the element is possible without the function is impaired.

Um die Verbindung mit dem Element, z. B. der Glasscheibe, noch sicherer zu gestalten, kann nach einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung vorgesehen sein, dass der harte Bereich einen von der Dichtung wegweisenden Lappen aufweist, der in einen Einschnitt im Element, z. B. der Glasscheibe, eingreift.To connect to the element, e.g. As the glass, to make even safer, can be provided according to a preferred development that the hard area has a pioneer of the seal flap, which in an incision in the element, for. B. the glass, engages.

Gemäß einer alternativen Ausführungsform kann der weiche Bereich auch über eine Materialschwächung, die vorzugsweise von dünnen Armen gebildet ist, in den harten Bereich übergehen. Diese Ausführungsform ist konstruktiv einfacher und kann durch die in der Spritzgusstechnik übliche Hart-Weich-Technik leicht hergestellt werden. In einer weiteren Ausführungsform kann der Bereich vor der Magneteinlage gänzlich entfallen, so dass die gegenüberliegenden Magnete direkt aneinanderkommen. Dieses würde den geringsten magnetischen Luftspalt bedeuten und eine sehr gute Haftkraft der Dichtungen untereinander bewirken. Zum Schutz der Magnetleisten können diese jedoch auch mit einer dünnen Schutzfolie überzogen sein.According to an alternative embodiment, the soft region can also pass over a material weakening, which is preferably formed by thin arms, into the hard region. This embodiment is structurally simpler and can be easily produced by the customary in the injection molding technique hard-soft technique. In a further embodiment, the area in front of the magnetic insert can be dispensed with altogether, so that the opposing magnets directly adjoin one another. This would mean the lowest magnetic air gap and cause a very good adhesion of the seals with each other. To protect the magnetic strips, however, these can also be coated with a thin protective film.

Bei einer weiteren Ausführung können die Magnetleisten von einem Medium an den Schließkanten umschlossen sein, das eine solche Viskosität aufweist, dass beim Aufeinandertreffen der Magnetleisten dieses Medium zur Seite gedrückt wird. Hierdurch wird wieder der magnetische Luftspalt zwischen den anliegenden Dichtungen verringert, was die Haltekräfte vergrößert und gleichzeitig durch den sich zur Seite quetschenden Teil der Dichtung eine höhere Dichtigkeit der zu verschließenden Teile erreicht.In a further embodiment, the magnetic strips can be enclosed by a medium at the closing edges, which has a viscosity such that when the magnetic strips meet, this medium is pushed aside. As a result, the magnetic air gap between the adjacent seals is again reduced, which increases the holding forces and at the same time reaches a higher density of the parts to be closed by the squeezing to the side of the seal.

Die in der Dichtung angeordnete Magneteinlage 8 entspricht in ihrer Kontur der Kontur der Außenflächen 10 der Dichtung und weist somit die gleiche Anzahl von ebenen Magnetflächen 9 auf wie die Dichtung.In FIG. 1 a seal for understanding the invention is shown. In this case, the seal on five flat outer surfaces 10, which line up like a polygon and are part of a regular polygon. The arranged in the seal magnetic insert 8 corresponds in contour to the contour of the outer surfaces 10 of the seal and thus has the same number of flat magnetic surfaces 9 as the seal.

In Figur 2 ist eine erste Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Dichtung dargestellt. Hier weist die Dichtung sieben ebene Außenflächen 10 auf und die Magnetflächen 9 entsprechen in ihrer Anzahl der Anzahl der Außenflächen 10.In FIG. 2 a first embodiment of the seal according to the invention is shown. Here, the seal on seven flat outer surfaces 10 and the magnetic surfaces 9 correspond in number to the number of outer surfaces 10th

In Figur 3 ist eine zweite Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Dichtung dargestellt, bei der eine besondere Art der Befestigung der Dichtung an der Glasscheibe 1 gezeigt ist. Obwohl diese Art der Befestigung bei einer Ausgestaltung mit sieben Außenflächen 10 gezeigt ist, kann sie auch in Verbindung mit den Ausführungsbeispielen nach den Figuren 1, 2 oder 4 angewandt werden.In FIG. 3 a second embodiment of the seal according to the invention is shown, in which a special way of fastening the gasket to the glass pane 1 is shown. Although this type of attachment is shown in a design with seven outer surfaces 10, it can also in connection with the embodiments of the Figures 1, 2 or 4 be applied.

Gemäß dieser Ausführungsform ist der harte Bereich 5 mit einem von der Dichtung wegweisenden, vorzugsweise mittig angeordneten Lappen 12 versehen, der in einen in der Glasscheibe 1 vorgesehenen Einschnitt 11 eingreift und somit für eine besonders feste Verbindung zwischen Dichtung und Glasscheibe 1 sorgt.According to this embodiment, the hard area 5 is provided with a flap 12 pointing away from the seal, preferably centrally arranged, which engages in an incision 11 provided in the glass pane 1 and thus ensures a particularly firm connection between the seal and the glass pane 1.

In Figur 4 ist eine dritte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Dichtung gezeigt. Hier weist die Dichtung eine Vielzahl von ebenen Außenflächen 10 auf, so dass ein schon fast halbkreisförmiger Verlauf entsteht. Bei dieser Ausführungsform entspricht die Anzahl der Magnetflächen 9 nicht mehr der Anzahl der ebenen Außenflächen 10, sondern es sind weniger Magnetflächen 9 als Außenflächen 10 vorhanden. Weiterhin ist bei dieser Ausführungsform die Dichtung über den weichen Bereich 6 unter Fortlassung des beweglichen Bereiches 7 direkt mit dem harten Bereich 5 verbunden. Die Beweglichkeit der Dichtung wird hier dadurch erzielt, dass der weiche Bereich 6 über eine Materialschwächung, die von dünnen Armen gebildet ist, in den harten Bereich 5 übergeht. Diese dünnen Arme gewährleisten eine gewisse Beweglichkeit der Dichtung, die ausreicht, um Toleranzen und dergleichen auszugleichen.In FIG. 4 a third embodiment of the seal according to the invention is shown. Here, the seal on a plurality of flat outer surfaces 10, so that an almost semi-circular course arises. In this embodiment, the number of magnetic surfaces 9 no longer corresponds to the number of flat outer surfaces 10, but there are fewer magnetic surfaces 9 than outer surfaces 10 available. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the seal over the soft region 6 is omitted of the movable portion 7 is directly connected to the hard portion 5. The mobility of the seal is achieved here in that the soft region 6 passes over the material weakening, which is formed by thin arms, into the hard region 5. These thin arms ensure a certain mobility of the seal, which is sufficient to compensate for tolerances and the like.

In den Figuren 5 bis 7 ist das Zusammenwirken zweier Dichtungen unter verschiedenen Winkeln dargestellt. Diese Figuren zeigen, dass dies - wie erfindungsgemäß gewünscht - mit ein und derselben Dichtung möglich ist.In the FIGS. 5 to 7 shows the interaction of two seals at different angles. These figures show that this is possible - as desired according to the invention - with one and the same seal.

Figur 5 zeigt eine Duschabtrennung, bei der zwei Elemente, z. B. zwei aus einer Glasscheibe 1 bestehende Schiebetüren, unter einem Winkel von 180° aufeinandertreffen. Die beiden mittigen Außenflächen 10 der beiden Dichtungen stoßen aneinander und bilden einen Kontaktbereich 13, der über die beiden Magneteinlagen 8 zusammengehalten wird. FIG. 5 shows a shower enclosure, in which two elements, for. B. two consisting of a glass pane 1 sliding doors, meet at an angle of 180 °. The two central outer surfaces 10 of the two seals abut one another and form a contact region 13 which is held together by the two magnetic inserts 8.

In Figur 6 ist eine Anordnung gezeigt, bei der die beiden Glasscheiben 1 unter einem Winkel von 135° aufeinandertreffen. Unter diesem Winkel bilden zwei seitliche Außenflächen 10 der beiden Dichtungen den Kontaktbereich 13.In FIG. 6 an arrangement is shown in which the two glass panes 1 meet at an angle of 135 °. At this angle, two lateral outer surfaces 10 of the two seals form the contact region 13.

In Figur 7 treffen die beiden Glasscheiben 1 unter einem Winkel von 90° aufeinander. Unter diesem Winkel bilden eine am Rand liegende Außenfläche 10 und eine seitliche Außenfläche 10 den Kontaktbereich 13.In FIG. 7 meet the two glass panes 1 at an angle of 90 ° to each other. At this angle, an outer surface 10 lying on the edge and a lateral outer surface 10 form the contact region 13.

Aus dieser Figur ist auch ersichtlich, dass es nicht zwingend notwendig ist, dass immer gleiche Außenflächen 10 den Kontaktbereich 13 bilden müssen, wie es in den Figuren 5 und 6 der Fall ist, vielmehr können auch beliebige Außenflächen 10 zur Bildung des Kontaktbereiches 13 zusammentreffen.From this figure it is also apparent that it is not absolutely necessary that always the same outer surfaces 10 must form the contact area 13, as in the FIGS. 5 and 6 the case is, but also any outer surfaces 10 can meet to form the contact area 13.

In einer weiteren Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Gedankens ist die nach außen weisende magnetische Einlage 8 mit einem Überzug in Form einer dünnen Folie an der Außenfläche 10 überzogen. Durch eine solche Folie wird der Luftzwischenraum zwischen den aufeinandertreffenden Dichtungshälften in Bezug auf die magnetische Wirkung der Magneteinlagen 8 reduziert. Eine solche Dichtung ist in der Figur 8 wiedergegeben.In a further embodiment of the inventive concept, the outwardly facing magnetic insert 8 is coated with a coating in the form of a thin film on the outer surface 10. By such a film, the air gap between the colliding seal halves with respect to the magnetic effect of the magnetic inserts 8 is reduced. Such a seal is in the FIG. 8 played.

Bei einer Modifikation und damit einer weiteren Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Dichtung wird nach Figur 9 vorgeschlagen, diese Anordnung der Folie so zu gestalten, dass ein elastischer (anschmiegsamer)In a modification and thus a further embodiment of the seal according to the invention is after FIG. 9 proposed that this arrangement of the film be designed so that an elastic (cuddly)

Bereich 14 zwischen der Folie 15 und den Magnetflächen 9 vorhanden ist. Eine solche Dichtung, die mit einer beweglichen, anschmiegsamen, elastischen Folie vor der Magneteinlage 8 ausgestattet ist, weist die Figur 9 aus. Dabei kann der Raum zwischen der Folie 15 und den Magnetflächen 9 z. B. mit Luft oder einem entsprechend leicht komprimierbaren bzw. wegdrückbaren Fluid gefüllt sein.Region 14 between the film 15 and the magnetic surfaces 9 is present. Such a seal, which is equipped with a movable, conformable, elastic film in front of the magnetic insert 8, has the FIG. 9 out. In this case, the space between the film 15 and the magnetic surfaces 9 z. B. be filled with air or a correspondingly easily compressible or wegdrückbaren fluid.

Durch den elastischen Bereich 14 wird erreicht, dass beim Aufeinandertreffen zweier Dichtungen, wie es die Figur 10 wiedergibt, ein Wegdrücken der Folie aufgrund der Magnetkräfte der Magneteinlagen 8 in jeder der Dichtungen neben der anziehenden Wirkung der Dichtungen untereinander erreicht wird. Darüber hinaus wird eine stärkere Abdichtung gegen austretendes Schwallwasser aus dem Duschbereich dadurch erreicht, dass der elastische Bereich 14 sich quasi als Polster in dem Bereich aufbaut, in dem die Dichtungen aneinanderliegen. Hierdurch wird eine weitere Abdichtungsgarantie erreicht.By the elastic region 14 is achieved that the meeting of two seals, as it FIG. 10 represents, a pushing away of the film due to the magnetic forces of the magnetic inserts 8 in each of the seals is achieved in addition to the attractive effect of the seals with each other. In addition, a stronger seal against leaking splash water from the shower area is achieved in that the elastic region 14 builds up as a kind of cushion in the area in which the seals abut each other. As a result, a further seal guarantee is achieved.
