Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Abdeckung bestehend aus mittels Gelenken zueinander verschwenkbaren Segmenten, insbesondere ein Sektionaltor, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a cover consisting of one another by means of joints pivotable segments, in particular a sectional door, according to the generic term of claim 1.

Derartige Tore sind beispielsweise aus dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster DE 88 00 956 U1 bekannt. Dort ist bereits beschrieben, daß die einzelnen Segmente Endflächen aufweisen, die in der Schließstellung der Abdeckung einander gegenüberliegen, wobei eine der Endflächen konvex gekrümmt ist und die Gelenkachse auf deren Innenseite und in einem Abstand zu dieser Endfläche angeordnet ist und daß die andere der Endflächen mindestens mit einem äußeren Randbereich derart an die konvexe Endfläche heranreicht, wobei sie selbst konkav ausgebildet ist, daß der bei Verschwenkung der Segmente auf der Außenseite der Abdeckung zwischen den beiden Endflächen vorhandene Spalt eine maximale Spaltbreite nicht überschreitet. Hierdurch ist es sichergestellt, daß in dem Spaltbereich keine Finger eingeklemmt werden können, da der Spalt in der Regel so klein gewählt ist, daß ein wirksamer Einklemmschutz gewährleistet ist. Die konvexe Endfläche des einen Segmentes ist etwa zylindrisch gekrümmt, wobei die Zylinderachse mit der an der Innenseite dieses Segments angeordneten Gelenkachse zusammenfällt. Um den Eingriff von der Seite zu verhindern, ist nahe der Gelenkachse jedes zum Gelenk gehörende Scharnier mit einem eigens dafür vorgesehenen kreissegmentförmigen Deckflügel versehen, der bei zueinander verschwenkten Segmenten den an der Gelenkachse entstehenden Zwickelraum in Axialrichtung der Gelenkachse nach außen abschließt. Diese kreissegmentförmig geformten Deckflügel stehen auf der Innenfläche der Abdeckung nach außen vor, wobei sie mit ihrer Eckkante nasenförmig nach außen ragen, so daß in der Schließstellung der Abdeckung vorstehende Widerhaken gebildet sind, die ein nicht zu unterschätzendes Verletzungsrisiko in sich bergen.Such gates are, for example, from the German utility model DE 88 00 956 U1 known. It is already described there that the individual segments Have end faces that in the closed position of the cover each other are opposite, one of the end faces being convexly curved and the hinge axis arranged on the inside and at a distance from this end surface and that the other of the end faces has at least one outer edge region reaches the convex end face in this way, wherein it itself is concave is that when pivoting the segments on the outside of the cover gap between the two end faces does not have a maximum gap width exceeds. This ensures that there are no fingers in the gap area can be pinched because the gap is usually chosen so small that a effective protection against trapping is guaranteed. The convex end surface of one Segmentes is approximately cylindrically curved, the cylinder axis with that at the Inside of this segment arranged hinge axis coincides. To the Preventing interference from the side is close to the joint axis each to the joint belonging hinge with a specially designed segment of a circle Cover wing provided that the pivoted segments to each other on the Gusset space in the axial direction of the joint axis outside closes. These cover segments shaped like a segment of a circle stand on the Inner surface of the cover facing outwards, being nose-shaped with its corner edge protrude outward so that in the closed position of the cover protruding Barbs are formed that pose a risk of injury that should not be underestimated recover.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Abdeckung mit einer Gelenkverbindung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 derart weiterzubilden, daß eine Verletzungsgefahr durch derartig vorstehende entsprechende Ecken bildende Teile sicher verhindert werden.The object of the invention is to provide a cover with an articulated connection to develop the preamble of claim 1 such that an injury risk prevented by such protruding corresponding corners forming parts become.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe durch eine Abdeckung mit den Merkmalen gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Demnach weist eines der benachbarten Segmente eine parallel zur Endfläche verlaufende Ausnehmung auf, in der die Gelenkachse zumindest teilweise angeordnet ist. Dieses Zurücksetzen der Gelenkachse unterhalb der die Innenwandung bildende Ebene des Segments können vorstehende Teile der Gelenke verhindert werden.According to the invention, the object is achieved by a cover with the features according to Claim 1 solved. Accordingly, one of the adjacent segments has one recess running parallel to the end surface, in which the hinge axis at least is partially arranged. This resetting of the joint axis below the plane of the segment forming the inner wall may have protruding parts of the joints can be prevented.

Bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den sich an den Hauptanspruch anschließenden Unteransprüchen. Demnach kann die Ausnehmung zur Aufnahme der Gelenkachse vorteilhaft in Form einer Nut ausgebildet sein.Preferred embodiments of the invention result from the Subordinate claims following main claim. Accordingly, the recess advantageously designed to accommodate the hinge axis in the form of a groove his.

Die Gelenkarme der die Segmente verbindenden Gelenke können aus L-Profilen bestehen. Diese weisen eine besonders gute Stabilität auf. An den L-Profilen zur Aufnahme der Gelenkachse können lappenartige Fortsätze angeformt sein. The articulated arms of the joints connecting the segments can be made of L-profiles consist. These have particularly good stability. On the L profiles for Tab-like extensions can be formed onto the joint axis.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist eine Fläche der L-Profile auf dem jeweiligen Segment flächig aufliegend mit diesem verbunden, wogegen die andere Fläche des L-Profils senkrecht von dem Segment absteht. Hier ist zwar auch ein senkrecht vom Segment abstehendes Teil gebildet, dieses ist aber langgestreckt und an den Kanten vorzugsweise abgerundet, so daß hier ein Hängenbleiben oder eine Verletzungsgefahr ausgeschlossen ist. Dabei sind die Endkanten der abstehenden Fläche des L-Profils derart abgerundet, daß zwischen der konkaven Endfläche des gegenüberliegenden Segmentes und der Endkante während des Verschwenkens nur ein kleiner Spalt verbleibt. Somit ist auch durch diese Ausführungsvariante ein seitlicher Eingriffsschutz - allerdings mit anderen und nicht mehr verletzungsgefährdenden Elementen verglichen zum Stand der Technik - gebildet.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, one surface is the L-profile connected to the respective segment lying flat against it, whereas the other surface of the L-profile protrudes perpendicularly from the segment. Here is though also a part protruding perpendicularly from the segment is formed, but this is elongated and preferably rounded at the edges, so that it gets stuck here or a risk of injury is excluded. Here are the end edges the protruding surface of the L-profile so rounded that between the concave end face of the opposite segment and the end edge during only a small gap remains after pivoting. So this is also through this Design variant a lateral intervention protection - but with others and not more injury-prone elements compared to the state of the art - educated.

Eine besonders vorteilhafte Ausführungsform der Erfindung ergibt sich dadurch, daß eine Fläche der L-Profile auf dem jeweiligen Segment flächig aufliegt und mit diesem verbunden ist, während die andere Fläche des L-Profils senkrecht und parallel zu den Seitenkanten der Segmente verläuft. Hiermit wird das L-Profil sozusagen auf den äußeren Eckbereich des Segments gelegt und mit diesem verbunden. Bei dieser Ausführunsvariante sind keine vorstehenden Teile, die über die Innenfläche der Segmente hinausragen, vorhanden.A particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention results from that a surface of the L-profile rests flat on the respective segment and with this is connected while the other surface of the L-profile is perpendicular and parallel runs to the side edges of the segments. This is the L-profile, so to speak placed on the outer corner area of the segment and connected to it. In this version, there are no protruding parts over the inner surface of the segments protrude, present.

In Fig. 1 sind zwei Segmente 12 und 14 einer Abdeckung, beispielsweise eines Garagentors 10, teilweise dargestellt. Diese Segmente werden über Gelenke 16 miteinander schwenkbar verbunden, wobei hier in Fig. 1 ein Gelenk 16 dargestellt ist. Über die Breite des Garagentors sind je nach Breite mehrere dieser Gelenke 16 in hier nicht näher dargestellter Art und Weise angeordnet. Eine untere Endfläche 18 des Segments 12 liegt einer oberen Endfläche 20 des Segments 14 gegenüber. Die Endflächen 18 und 20 sind etwa zylindrisch gekrümmt und verlaufen in Schließstellung konzentrisch zu einer Gelenkachse 22, wobei zwischen den Endflächen 18 und 20 ein Spalt s von nur einem bis höchstens wenigen Millimetern währnd des Verschwenkens der Segmente 12 und 14 zueinander verbleibt. Die Endfläche 18 ist, wie aus Fig. 1 gezeigt, konkav und die Endfläche 20 ist entsprechend der Fig. 1 konvex gekrümmt.In Fig. 1 there are two segments 12 and 14 of a cover, for example a garage door 10, partially shown. These segments are interconnected via joints 16 pivotally connected, a joint 16 being shown here in FIG. 1. Depending on the width, several of these joints are 16 in across the width of the garage door arranged here not shown in detail. A lower end surface 18 the segment 12 is opposite an upper end surface 20 of the segment 14. The End surfaces 18 and 20 are approximately cylindrically curved and extend in the closed position concentric to a hinge axis 22, with end faces 18 and 20 a gap s of only one to at most a few millimeters during the Swiveling of the segments 12 and 14 to each other remains. The end surface 18 is concave as shown in FIG. 1 and the end surface 20 is corresponding to FIG. 1 convexly curved.

Das Gelenk 16 besteht aus zwei Gelenkarmen 24 und 26. Die Gelenkarme 24 und 26 sind über den größten Bereich ihrer Länge als L-Profil ausgebildet. Eine Fläche, nämlich die Fläche 28 des Gelenkarms 24 und 30 des Gelenkarms 26 liegen jeweils auf den Innenseiten der Segmente 12 bzw. 14 auf und sind mit diesen fest verbunden, beispielsweise verschraubt (hier nicht näher dargestellt). Die senkrecht nach oben stehenden Flächen 32 des Gelenkarms 24 bzw. 34 des Gelenkarms 26 sind langgestreckt und weisen abgerundete Endbereiche auf, so daß hier keine Ecken ausbildende oder scharfkantig abstehende Vorsprünge an der Innenseite der Abdeckung gebildet werden. Sowohl der Gelenkarm 26 wie auch der Gelenkarm 24 weisen lappenartige Fortsätze auf, die jeweils die Bohrung zur Aufnahme der hier in den Zeichnungen nicht näher dargestellten Gelenkachse beinhalten. Der lappenartige Fortsatz 36 des Gelenkarms 26 (vgl. Fig. 1) und der lappenartige Fortsatz 38 des Gelenkarms 24 liegen in montierter Form innerhalb einer halbrund ausgenommenen Nut 40, die im Segment 14 nahe der konvexen Endfläche 20 ausgenommen ist. Somit liegt die Gelenkachse (hier nicht dargestellt) innerhalb dieser Nut. Um die Gelenkachse 22 können die Gelenkarme 24 und 26 und damit die Segmente 12 und 14 gegeneinander verschwenkt werden. In Fig. 3 sind die Segmente gerade zueinander ausgerichtet. Dies entspricht der geschlossenen Stellung des Abdeckelements, d. h. des Garagentores.The joint 16 consists of two articulated arms 24 and 26. The articulated arms 24 and 26 are formed as an L-profile over the largest area of their length. An area, namely the surface 28 of the articulated arm 24 and 30 of the articulated arm 26 each lie on the inside of the segments 12 and 14 and are fixed with them connected, for example screwed (not shown here). The vertical upward-facing surfaces 32 of the articulated arm 24 or 34 of the articulated arm 26 are elongated and have rounded end areas, so that none here Projections forming corners or protruding with sharp edges on the inside of the Cover are formed. Both the articulated arm 26 and the articulated arm 24 have tab-like extensions, each of which has the bore for receiving the in include the articulation axis not shown in the drawings. The rag-like Extension 36 of the articulated arm 26 (see FIG. 1) and the tab-like extension 38 of the articulated arm 24 lie in the assembled form within a semicircular recess Groove 40 that is recessed in segment 14 near the convex end surface 20 is. The hinge axis (not shown here) thus lies within this groove. To the The articulated axis 22 can be the articulated arms 24 and 26 and thus the segments 12 and 14 are pivoted against each other. In Fig. 3 the segments are straight aligned with each other. This corresponds to the closed position of the cover element, d. H. of the garage door.

Wie insbesondere den Figuren 1 und 2 zu entnehmen ist, ist die Endfläche 42 der senkrechten Fläche 34 des Gelenkarms 26 derart abgerundet, daß der Radius im wesentlichen zu dem Radius der konkaven Endfläche 18 des Segments 12 korrespondiert. Somit ist hier beim Verschwenken des Segmentes 12 gegenüber dem Segment 14 immer nur ein kleiner - gleichbleibender - Spalt gebildet, so daß auch hier ein wirksamer Klemmschutz erreicht wird.As can be seen in particular from FIGS. 1 and 2, the end face 42 is the vertical surface 34 of the articulated arm 26 rounded such that the radius in essentially corresponds to the radius of the concave end face 18 of the segment 12. Thus here when pivoting the segment 12 relative to the Segment 14 always formed only a small - constant - gap, so that too an effective pinch protection is achieved here.

In den Figuren 4 und 5 ist eine andere Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung gezeigt. Hier sind jeweils Teile, die Teilen der jeweils vorbeschriebenen Ausführungsform entsprechen, mit gleichen Zahlen belegt. Im hier vorliegenden Fall sind die L-Profile, die die Gelenkarme 24 und 26 bilden, am Kantenbereich der Segmente 12 und 14 mit den Segmenten 12 und 14 verbunden. Die Flächen 28 des Gelenkarmes 24 und 30 des Gelenkarmes 26 sind wieder mit der Innenfläche des Sektionaltores verbunden, während die senkrecht abstehenden Flächen 32 des Gelenkarmes 24 und 34 des Gelenkarmes 30 bei dieser Ausführungsvariante nicht senkrecht zur Innenfläche der Segmente 12 und 14 stehen, sondern statt dessen senkrecht und parallel zu den Seitenkanten der Segmente 12 und 14 verlaufen, wobei sie dieser teilweise überdecken. Die jeweiligen lappenartigen Fortsätze 36 und 38 zur Bildung der entsprechenden Aufnahmeöse für die Gelenkachse 22, die hier allerdings nicht dargestellt ist, verlaufen ebenfalls seitlich der Seitenkante der Segmente 12 und 14 und sind derart angeordnet, daß die Gelenkachse 22 auch hier im Bereich der halbrunden Nut 40 liegt. Der lappenartige Fortsatz 38 der Fläche 32 des L-Profils 24 erstreckt sich über die gesamte Breite der Fläche 32, so daß hier ein seitlicher Eingriffsschutz gebildet wird.Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS shown. Here are parts, the parts of each of the above-described embodiment correspond with the same numbers. In the present case are the L-profiles, which form the articulated arms 24 and 26, at the edge region of the segments 12 and 14 connected to segments 12 and 14.
