Definitions
- the invention relates to a transferrable and turnable panel structure according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention relates to a guide for a panel structure according to the preamble of claim 12.
- Balcony facilities of a building are equipped with glazing systems of prior art, which are called e.g. balcony glazings.
- the systems typically comprise an upper profile and a lower profile, or another corresponding guide track, inside which the necessary guide track parts are placed, between which, in turn, single glass panes are suspended.
- the glass panes are used as panels which limit the space or isolate it better, for example, from weather conditions, for example on balconies or terraces, dividing the space into several parts and partitioning the spaces from each other, like doors which separate rooms or business facilities.
- the profiles extend in the horizontal direction and are fastened to the structures of the building.
- the single glass panes can be opened and closed, normally around a vertical axis of rotation, as well as moved aside along the profiles, for example for opening.
- the panels can be moved aside when they are not needed or when a larger space or passage is to be taken into use.
- Some known balcony glazings are presented in the publications FI-84645-B and FI-90796-B .
- One system for glazing a space is presented in the publication WO 97/11247 .
- the panels can also extend all the way to the floor, as in the publications GB-1456283-B , FR-2545143-A and EP-0457286-A1 .
- the disadvantage is that an elevation, a threshold or another structure is formed which extends above the floor surface, as in said FR publication, or when the lower profile according to said WO publication is placed directly on the floor.
- An elevation encumbers the use of such a large space in its entirety which can be partitioned by panels into smaller spaces and which also causes a risk of stumbling.
- the natural way is therefore to place the profile used as a guide track and a guide in a groove in the floor, but in this case it is not possible to to use e.g.
- the roll-like guides of the lower profiles because the side of the profile cannot be provided with an opening, from which the guides fixed to the panel would come out when the panel is opened, because the guides extend into the lower profile or guide track.
- the lower end of the panel normally both edges of the same, are normally provided with some kind of guides or guide track parts to prevent the bouncing of the lower end of the panel during its use or transfers.
- the panel could be provided wth manually transferrable locking guide pins which are movable in the vertical direction, but their use would be cumbersome and the space required by them would be relatively large.
- the guide according to the invention is characterized in that the locking and releasing are produced simultaneously when the glass panel is transferred in any case.
- an external settable control it is possible to determine those locations in the guide track in which opening is possible and in which the panel always follows the guide track.
- the guide track, the profile or a corresponding structure can be placed further underneath the floor surface.
- the guide is particularly easy to use, because it is automatically transferred to the desired position and at the desired moment, simultaneously when the panel window or wall is transferred, so that separate measures to open and close the guide will not be necessary and the use will not require special skills.
- the guide with its mechanism is small in size and unnoticeable, so that it can be easily placed, for example, in the lower profile. The point at which the panel is located when the guide is disconnected from the lower profile or is re-connected to it, can be easily adjusted by means of a separate counterpiece.
- This separate counterpiece can be placed in a location away from walking paths, for example in the location where the panels are turned aside and stored.
- the mechanism of the guide works when the panel is moved along the guide tracks, that is, normally in the direction of the surface of the panel.
- the guide mechanism releases the lower end of the panel, wherein the panel can be opened and turned around a hinge mechanism at one edge.
- the guide is placed at the other end of the panel or at a suitable distance from the guide track parts used as the hinge mechanism.
- a panel structure of prior art normally comprises several successive glass panes 1 which are movable.
- the glass panes 1 are normally rectangular, wherein they are normally in an upright position and form a closed wall or a large window when placed one after the other. They can be transferred in the direction of the guide tracks, which is typically the horizontal direction.
- the glass panes 1 can be opened into a position which is normally perpendicular to the closed position. In this position, the glass panes 1 are placed side by side close to each other, wherein they are stored on one side of the opening 3 in the building 2, when they have first been moved along the guide tracks.
- the upper guide track 4 and the lower guide track 5 are placed in the horizontal direction, and inside them, there are upper guide track parts 6 and lower guide track parts 7, to which the panels 1 are connected from above and from below.
- the guide tracks are normally profiles made of aluminium, provided with a long groove for the guide track parts.
- the panel preferably consists of a glass pane, whose lower and upper edges are provided with fillets 8 and 9, to which the guide track parts, in turn, are connected.
- FIG. 2 One example of known upper guide track parts 6 is shown in Fig. 2 .
- the panes 1 are also provided with a fillet or a profile 9, to which a hinge pin 10 is connected.
- the hinge pin of the guide track parts makes it possible to swing the panel 1 around a vertical axis of rotation, from the closed position (position A) to the open position (position B), and vice versa
- the guide track parts 6 are placed on the support of the upper guide track 4 and are supported to it by means of, for example, vertical rolls 11. Alternatively, the rolls 11 can be connected horizontally at the end 12 of the hinge pin 10.
- the rolls 9 support the glass panel 1, and by means of them, the glass panel 1 moves along the upper guide track 4.
- a slider 13 controls the movement inside the guide track and locks the panels 1 to each other, if necessary. In this example, the slider 8 is locked to the hinge pin of the next guide track parts.
- the structure of the guide track parts 7 placed in the lower guide track 5 corresponds substantially to the guide track parts 6, at least for the part of the hinge pin 10, but for example the rolls 9 are not necessary, if the guide is, for example, a piece corresponding to the piece 13.
- the guide track parts 6 and 7 are placed on the same vertical axis of rotation, wherein the opening of the panel is possible, and normally, they are placed at one edge of the panel, as shown in Fig. 2 .
- a simple slider is, in turn, placed at one end of the panel or glass pane, or close to it.
- This slider can be a pin and/or a vertical or horizontal wheel which is connected to the fillet 8, is placed inside the lower guide track 5 and keeps the glass pane 1 closed.
- the lower guide track 5 is placed completely inside, for example, a floor, or the guide track parts 7 extend otherwise lower than the floor surface, it is possible to provide the orifice in the lower guide track 5, but in this case, at least one curved groove should be made in the floor, along which the guide track parts 7 travel when the panels 1 are opened.
- Figure 3 shows a guide 14 according to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, embedded in a fillet 15 corresponding to the fillet 8 of Fig. 1 , located at the lower edge of the panel and connected, for example, underneath the transparent glass pane, close to the floor.
- the guide 14 comprises a guide pin 16 which can be lifted up, wherein it is transferred preferably completely inside the guide 14, and lowered down, wherein it extends to the groove or lower guide track (not shown in the figure) underneath the fillet 15.
- the guide pin 16 extends lower than the fillet 15 and the body 17 of the guide 14.
- the lower guide track prevents the turning of the panel, supported by the hinge pin 10 in Fig. 2 , sidewards to the position B, and thereby the opening of the panel.
- the guide pin 16 can only move in the direction of the panel, between the two side walls of the lower guide track, in the same way as the guide track parts 7 of Fig. 1 .
- the guide 14 also comprises a counterpiece 18 which is connected to a desired point on the floor or to the lower guide track in such a way that it can cooperate with the mechanism of the guide 14 when the mechanism by-passes or travels across it.
- the points at which the guide 14 moves into the different positions are almost the same in the forth and back movements; however, this is not necessary, but these points can also be located at a distance from each other.
- the mechanism comprises a pinion 19 shown in Fig. 6 , which pinion remains at a distance from the floor but which is capable of rolling along the counterpiece 18 and thereby moving between the two different rotary positions.
- the counterpiece 18 is elevated from the floor to such an extent that the pinion 19 hits it and is rotated to a desired extent.
- the pinion 19 is equipped with a cogging, and the counterpiece 18 is equipped with corresponding indents 20 and 21 to secure the rotation of the pinion 19.
- the rotation of the pinion 19 is controlled by the dimensions of the indents 20, 21 and the cogging.
- the pinion 19 is intended to rotate at the counterpiece 18 only and to a given extent only.
- the pinion 19 stops in the position where the lowermost cog 22 is ready to receive the returning counterpiece 18.
- the operation is arranged in such a way that when the panel moves in a first direction, the guide pin 16 is elevated at the counterpiece 18 and remains elevated even after that.
- the guide pin 16 when on the left hand side of the counterpiece 18, the guide pin 16 remains in the lower position, wherein the opening of the panel is prevented, and on the right hand side, it remains in the upper position, wherein opening of the panel is allowed and the guide pin 16 moves away from the inside of the guide track and can withdraw from the guide track.
- Fig. 4 the body 17 of the guide is shown in more detail.
- the front part 24 is placed visible outside the fillet 15 and the rear part 25 is placed inside the fillet 15.
- the fillet 15 is equipped with a recess or an opening for receiving the body 17.
- the body 17 is connected by means of a fixing lug 26 (at both ends of the body 17) to the fillet 15.
- a screw used as a shaft and carrying the rocker lever 30 of the mechanism of Fig. 5 at the end of which the guide pin 16 is connected, can be fixed to the hole 27.
- a second hole 28 makes it possible to place the rocker lever in an opposite position, wherein the guide pin rises to its upper position when the guide moves from the left to the right and across the counterpiece.
- the body 17 has an open lower surface, wherein it can receive the rocker lever 30, the pinion 19 of the mechanism of Fig. 6 , and the locking means 31 of the mechanism of Fig. 7 .
- the pinion 19 comprises a cogging which rolls along the counterpiece 18 of Fig. 3 .
- the counterpiece 18 hits the lowermost cog 22, and the next cogs (e.g. 2 cogs) are received in the recesses (for example 2 recesses) 20 and 21 in the counterpiece 18.
- the outermost cog 23 becomes the lowermost one, and the next time it hits the counterpiece 18 is when the guide 14 approaches the piece 18 from the opposite direction.
- the pinion 19 is rotated slightly less than 180°.
- the pinion 19 is provided with an eccentrically pin-like protrusion 35 which is parallel with the sleeve shaft 34.
- the pin 35 has a circular cross section and is partly integrated in the sleeve shaft 34.
- the rocker lever 30 is shown in more detail. At the first end of the rocker lever 30, there is a hole 36 for the shaft, and at the second end, there is a guide pin or a guide protrusion 16 which, in its locking position, extends, for example, to the lower guide track or to a groove corresponding to it, and holds the whole panel in the desired position, as already described above.
- the positions of the rocker lever 30 and the pinion 19 in the locking position are shown in Fig. 8 .
- the rocker lever 30 comprises an opening 37, inside which the sleeve shaft 34 and the protrusion 35 of the pinion move.
- the protrusion 35 touches the rocker lever 30 and forces it into different positions.
- the sleeve shaft 34 moves between smaller recesses 39 and 40 in the opening 37, and the opening 37 is dimensioned so that the protrusion 35 can move with the pinion 19 into the different extreme positions in the opening.
- the extreme positions are limited by the walls of the opening 37, against which the protrusion 35 is pressed by the locking means 31.
- the locking means 31 according to Fig. 7 is fixed, for example with a screw, inside the rocker lever 30, where it is installed via the opening 38 shown in Fig. 5 .
- a spring 33 pushes a shoe 32 against the protrusion 35, and the force of the shoe 32 keeps the protrusion 35 further against the wall of the opening 37.
- the opening 37 is designed and dimensioned in such a way that the pressing of the guide pin 16 from below in the situation of Fig. 8 will not cause a movement of the guide pin 16 into the position of Fig. 9 .
- the edge of the opening 37 presses the protrusion 37.
- said edge of the recess forces the protrusion 37 against the wall and thereby intensifies the effect of the spring 33.
- the positi ons of the opening 37 and the protrusion 35 in different situations are shown by means of broken lines.
- a stopper 41 according to Fig. 10 can be placed on one side of the fillet 15 and attached to the floor, to the edge of the groove, to the lower guide track, or the like. Its function is particularly to act as a stopper when the panel is being closed again and being aligned with the guide track again, and particularly to place the up-lifted guide pin 16 against the guide track for lowering it down.
- the stopper 41 guides the movement of the panel when the guide pin is not yet lowered but is only approaching the counterpiece 18.
- the panel can be easily kept in the correct position by pushing it, during the movement, slightly against the stopper 41 which allows the gliding of the fillet along the same. If necessary, the stopper can be equipped with rolls.
- the shape of the stopper 41 may vary from that presented, as long as its function remains the same.
- the shape of the body 17 may vary, as well as the more detailed cross-section of the fillet 15.
- the bodies 17 can also be made in such a way that the rocker lever can be installed in them in one position only, wherein, for example, the structure corresponding to either the hole 27 or the hole 28 is in use, and in which case the whole body with its mechanism must be replaced if the function is to be changed to the reverse.
- the guide is moved into either of the positions on the basis of external control.
- the mechanism can also be arranged so that the transfer into the different positions can be made manually as well, for example by using a turning knob coupled to the shaft of the pinion 19, or by turning the pinion 19 with a tool. In this case, the use of the mechanism will not be prevented by breaking of the cogging or the counterpiece.
- the rocker lever it is not necessary to couple the rocker lever onto a separate shaft (e.g. by means of the hole 36), but it is placed directly around the eccentric protrusion 35.
- the protrusion encloses the shaft 34, and for example the mechanism or the inner surface of the body 17 is equipped with guide track structures to guide the movement of the guide pin 16 up and down.
- the shape of the guide pin or means 16 may vary, wherein it may also have a wedge-like, conical or a rectangular shape.
- the guide pin 16 may also be provided with or replaced by a horizontally and/or vertically placed wheel which is supported to the inner walls of the guide track.
- At the counterpiece 18, on the upper surface of the lower guide track there may be an opening which is wider than the normal groove and through which a wheel, wider than the groove, can move out of the guide track and back.
- the pinion or other rotary means 19 is equipped with a cogging, but the number of cogs may be different from that presented.
- the hole 37 in the rocker lever 30 can also be formed in the protrusion or bulge on the side of the rocker lever, and the hole 37 does not need to extend through the rocker lever 30. In the rocker lever of Fig. 5 , there is a hole on both sides, because the rocker lever can be installed in the body 17 in two different positions, which is not always necessary.
- the guide 14 is only coupled to the lower guide track, but in addition, a second guide can be installed at the upper guide track, possible coupled to the ceiling or the ceiling structures. Installation to the ceiling only is possible, provided that structures embedded in the ceiling are allowable, and if guide tracks installed on the floor surface are allowable. Simultaneous installation in the ceiling and in the floor is possible, if the other guide track parts support the panel to a sufficient extent, keep it in the desired position, and the moving is easy.
Description
- The invention relates to a transferrable and turnable panel structure according to the preamble of
claim 1. The invention relates to a guide for a panel structure according to the preamble ofclaim 12. - Balcony facilities of a building are equipped with glazing systems of prior art, which are called e.g. balcony glazings. The systems typically comprise an upper profile and a lower profile, or another corresponding guide track, inside which the necessary guide track parts are placed, between which, in turn, single glass panes are suspended. The glass panes are used as panels which limit the space or isolate it better, for example, from weather conditions, for example on balconies or terraces, dividing the space into several parts and partitioning the spaces from each other, like doors which separate rooms or business facilities. Typically, the profiles extend in the horizontal direction and are fastened to the structures of the building. By the guide track parts, the single glass panes can be opened and closed, normally around a vertical axis of rotation, as well as moved aside along the profiles, for example for opening. The panels can be moved aside when they are not needed or when a larger space or passage is to be taken into use. Some known balcony glazings are presented in the publications
FI-84645-B FI-90796-B WO 97/11247 GB-1456283-B FR-2545143-A EP-0457286-A1 . - When the above-mentioned lower guide track or profile is placed on the floor, the disadvantage is that an elevation, a threshold or another structure is formed which extends above the floor surface, as in said FR publication, or when the lower profile according to said WO publication is placed directly on the floor. An elevation, in turn, encumbers the use of such a large space in its entirety which can be partitioned by panels into smaller spaces and which also causes a risk of stumbling. The natural way is therefore to place the profile used as a guide track and a guide in a groove in the floor, but in this case it is not possible to to use e.g. the roll-like guides of the lower profiles according to said FI and WO publications, because the side of the profile cannot be provided with an opening, from which the guides fixed to the panel would come out when the panel is opened, because the guides extend into the lower profile or guide track. The lower end of the panel, normally both edges of the same, are normally provided with some kind of guides or guide track parts to prevent the bouncing of the lower end of the panel during its use or transfers. The panel could be provided wth manually transferrable locking guide pins which are movable in the vertical direction, but their use would be cumbersome and the space required by them would be relatively large.
-
DE 199 30 949 A discloses the features of the preamble ofclaims - It is an aim of the invention to eliminate the above-described problems by introducing a control mechanism of a new type. The transferrable and turnable panel structure according to the invention is presented in
claim 1. The guide for a panel structure according to the invention is presented inclaim 12. - The guide according to the invention is characterized in that the locking and releasing are produced simultaneously when the glass panel is transferred in any case. By means of an external settable control it is possible to determine those locations in the guide track in which opening is possible and in which the panel always follows the guide track.
- By means of the guide according to the invention, and the mechanism of the same, the guide track, the profile or a corresponding structure can be placed further underneath the floor surface. The guide is particularly easy to use, because it is automatically transferred to the desired position and at the desired moment, simultaneously when the panel window or wall is transferred, so that separate measures to open and close the guide will not be necessary and the use will not require special skills. The guide with its mechanism is small in size and unnoticeable, so that it can be easily placed, for example, in the lower profile. The point at which the panel is located when the guide is disconnected from the lower profile or is re-connected to it, can be easily adjusted by means of a separate counterpiece. This separate counterpiece can be placed in a location away from walking paths, for example in the location where the panels are turned aside and stored. What is noteworthy is that the mechanism of the guide works when the panel is moved along the guide tracks, that is, normally in the direction of the surface of the panel. The guide mechanism releases the lower end of the panel, wherein the panel can be opened and turned around a hinge mechanism at one edge. The guide is placed at the other end of the panel or at a suitable distance from the guide track parts used as the hinge mechanism. At the upper end of the panel, it is possible to use guide track parts of prior art and openings made in the upper profile which make it possible to open the panel. Normally, opening is only possible in one lateral direction in relation to the guide tracks.
- In the following, the invention will be illustrated in more detail by means of a preferred embodiment, wherein reference is at the same time made to the appended drawings, in which

Fig. 1 , a panel structure of prior art, particularly a glazing system for balconies, installed in its place, normally comprises severalsuccessive glass panes 1 which are movable. Theglass panes 1 are normally rectangular, wherein they are normally in an upright position and form a closed wall or a large window when placed one after the other. They can be transferred in the direction of the guide tracks, which is typically the horizontal direction. Theglass panes 1 can be opened into a position which is normally perpendicular to the closed position. In this position, theglass panes 1 are placed side by side close to each other, wherein they are stored on one side of theopening 3 in thebuilding 2, when they have first been moved along the guide tracks. Theupper guide track 4 and thelower guide track 5 are placed in the horizontal direction, and inside them, there are upperguide track parts 6 and lower guide track parts 7, to which thepanels 1 are connected from above and from below. The guide tracks are normally profiles made of aluminium, provided with a long groove for the guide track parts. The panel preferably consists of a glass pane, whose lower and upper edges are provided withfillets 8 and 9, to which the guide track parts, in turn, are connected. - One example of known upper
guide track parts 6 is shown inFig. 2 . Normally, thepanes 1 are also provided with a fillet or aprofile 9, to which ahinge pin 10 is connected. The hinge pin of the guide track parts makes it possible to swing thepanel 1 around a vertical axis of rotation, from the closed position (position A) to the open position (position B), and vice versa Theguide track parts 6 are placed on the support of theupper guide track 4 and are supported to it by means of, for example,vertical rolls 11. Alternatively, therolls 11 can be connected horizontally at theend 12 of thehinge pin 10. Therolls 9 support theglass panel 1, and by means of them, theglass panel 1 moves along theupper guide track 4. Aslider 13 controls the movement inside the guide track and locks thepanels 1 to each other, if necessary. In this example, the slider 8 is locked to the hinge pin of the next guide track parts. - In
Fig. 1 , the structure of the guide track parts 7 placed in thelower guide track 5 corresponds substantially to theguide track parts 6, at least for the part of thehinge pin 10, but for example therolls 9 are not necessary, if the guide is, for example, a piece corresponding to thepiece 13. Theguide track parts 6 and 7 are placed on the same vertical axis of rotation, wherein the opening of the panel is possible, and normally, they are placed at one edge of the panel, as shown inFig. 2 . For example a simple slider is, in turn, placed at one end of the panel or glass pane, or close to it. This slider can be a pin and/or a vertical or horizontal wheel which is connected to the fillet 8, is placed inside thelower guide track 5 and keeps theglass pane 1 closed. Its function is to guide the other end of theglass pane 1 during movements and transfers of theglass pane 1, wherein it keeps theglass pane 1 parallel to the guide tracks which are also aligned. For opening, an orifice is provided at the side of thelower guide track 5, through which orifice said pin or corresponding means can withdraw from thelower guide track 5. Corresponding provisions are normally made in theupper guide track 4 and in the upper edge of thepanel 1 as well, so that theglass pane 1 would bounce to a lesser extent. - In a situation in which the
lower guide track 5 is placed completely inside, for example, a floor, or the guide track parts 7 extend otherwise lower than the floor surface, it is possible to provide the orifice in thelower guide track 5, but in this case, at least one curved groove should be made in the floor, along which the guide track parts 7 travel when thepanels 1 are opened. -
Figure 3 shows aguide 14 according to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, embedded in afillet 15 corresponding to the fillet 8 ofFig. 1 , located at the lower edge of the panel and connected, for example, underneath the transparent glass pane, close to the floor. Theguide 14 comprises aguide pin 16 which can be lifted up, wherein it is transferred preferably completely inside theguide 14, and lowered down, wherein it extends to the groove or lower guide track (not shown in the figure) underneath thefillet 15. At the same time, theguide pin 16 extends lower than thefillet 15 and thebody 17 of theguide 14. The lower guide track prevents the turning of the panel, supported by thehinge pin 10 inFig. 2 , sidewards to the position B, and thereby the opening of the panel. Theguide pin 16 can only move in the direction of the panel, between the two side walls of the lower guide track, in the same way as the guide track parts 7 ofFig. 1 . - The
guide 14 also comprises acounterpiece 18 which is connected to a desired point on the floor or to the lower guide track in such a way that it can cooperate with the mechanism of theguide 14 when the mechanism by-passes or travels across it. In the presented embodiment, the points at which theguide 14 moves into the different positions, are almost the same in the forth and back movements; however, this is not necessary, but these points can also be located at a distance from each other. In this case, the mechanism comprises apinion 19 shown inFig. 6 , which pinion remains at a distance from the floor but which is capable of rolling along thecounterpiece 18 and thereby moving between the two different rotary positions. Thecounterpiece 18 is elevated from the floor to such an extent that thepinion 19 hits it and is rotated to a desired extent. Thepinion 19 is equipped with a cogging, and thecounterpiece 18 is equipped withcorresponding indents pinion 19. The rotation of thepinion 19 is controlled by the dimensions of theindents pinion 19 is intended to rotate at thecounterpiece 18 only and to a given extent only. Thepinion 19 stops in the position where thelowermost cog 22 is ready to receive the returningcounterpiece 18. The operation is arranged in such a way that when the panel moves in a first direction, theguide pin 16 is elevated at thecounterpiece 18 and remains elevated even after that. - When the panel is moved back in the opposite direction, across the
counterpiece 18 again, theguide pin 16 descends back and remains in the descended position after that. Consequently, through a force effect, thecounterpiece 18 causes a change in the position of the guide. InFig. 3 , theguide pin 16 rises to its upper position, when theguide 14 moves from the right to the left, and goes down again to its lower position shown inFig. 3 , when theguide 14 moves in the opposite direction, from the left to the right. Consequently, when on the left hand side of thecounterpiece 18, theguide pin 16 remains in the lower position, wherein the opening of the panel is prevented, and on the right hand side, it remains in the upper position, wherein opening of the panel is allowed and theguide pin 16 moves away from the inside of the guide track and can withdraw from the guide track. - In
Fig. 4 , thebody 17 of the guide is shown in more detail. Thefront part 24 is placed visible outside thefillet 15 and therear part 25 is placed inside thefillet 15. Thefillet 15 is equipped with a recess or an opening for receiving thebody 17. With screws and nuts, thebody 17 is connected by means of a fixing lug 26 (at both ends of the body 17) to thefillet 15. For example, a screw used as a shaft and carrying therocker lever 30 of the mechanism ofFig. 5 , at the end of which theguide pin 16 is connected, can be fixed to thehole 27. Asecond hole 28 makes it possible to place the rocker lever in an opposite position, wherein the guide pin rises to its upper position when the guide moves from the left to the right and across the counterpiece. Thebody 17 has an open lower surface, wherein it can receive therocker lever 30, thepinion 19 of the mechanism ofFig. 6 , and the locking means 31 of the mechanism ofFig. 7 . - As shown in
Fig. 6 , thepinion 19 comprises a cogging which rolls along thecounterpiece 18 ofFig. 3 . On the other side of the pinion, on the central shaft, there is asleeve shaft 34 forming a protrusion. Via an opening through thesleeve shaft 34 and thepinion 19, for example a screw is inserted, which is used as a shaft and which is placed in thehole 29 in thebody 17 shown inFig. 3 . Thecounterpiece 18 hits thelowermost cog 22, and the next cogs (e.g. 2 cogs) are received in the recesses (for example 2 recesses) 20 and 21 in thecounterpiece 18. - The
outermost cog 23 becomes the lowermost one, and the next time it hits thecounterpiece 18 is when theguide 14 approaches thepiece 18 from the opposite direction. In this case, thepinion 19 is rotated slightly less than 180°. Thepinion 19 is provided with an eccentrically pin-like protrusion 35 which is parallel with thesleeve shaft 34. In this case, thepin 35 has a circular cross section and is partly integrated in thesleeve shaft 34. - In
Fig. 5 , therocker lever 30 is shown in more detail. At the first end of therocker lever 30, there is ahole 36 for the shaft, and at the second end, there is a guide pin or aguide protrusion 16 which, in its locking position, extends, for example, to the lower guide track or to a groove corresponding to it, and holds the whole panel in the desired position, as already described above. The positions of therocker lever 30 and thepinion 19 in the locking position are shown inFig. 8 . Therocker lever 30 comprises anopening 37, inside which thesleeve shaft 34 and theprotrusion 35 of the pinion move. - The
protrusion 35 touches therocker lever 30 and forces it into different positions. Thesleeve shaft 34 moves betweensmaller recesses opening 37, and theopening 37 is dimensioned so that theprotrusion 35 can move with thepinion 19 into the different extreme positions in the opening. The extreme positions are limited by the walls of theopening 37, against which theprotrusion 35 is pressed by the locking means 31. The locking means 31 according toFig. 7 is fixed, for example with a screw, inside therocker lever 30, where it is installed via theopening 38 shown inFig. 5 . Aspring 33 pushes ashoe 32 against theprotrusion 35, and the force of theshoe 32 keeps theprotrusion 35 further against the wall of theopening 37. Theopening 37 is designed and dimensioned in such a way that the pressing of theguide pin 16 from below in the situation ofFig. 8 will not cause a movement of theguide pin 16 into the position ofFig. 9 . Thus, the edge of theopening 37 presses theprotrusion 37. Preferably, said edge of the recess forces theprotrusion 37 against the wall and thereby intensifies the effect of thespring 33. InFigs. 8 and 9 , the positi ons of theopening 37 and theprotrusion 35 in different situations are shown by means of broken lines. - In
Fig. 3 , astopper 41 according toFig. 10 can be placed on one side of thefillet 15 and attached to the floor, to the edge of the groove, to the lower guide track, or the like. Its function is particularly to act as a stopper when the panel is being closed again and being aligned with the guide track again, and particularly to place the up-liftedguide pin 16 against the guide track for lowering it down. Thestopper 41 guides the movement of the panel when the guide pin is not yet lowered but is only approaching thecounterpiece 18. The panel can be easily kept in the correct position by pushing it, during the movement, slightly against thestopper 41 which allows the gliding of the fillet along the same. If necessary, the stopper can be equipped with rolls. - The invention is not restricted solely to the advantageous embodiment presented above, but it may vary according to the appended claims. For example, the shape of the
stopper 41 may vary from that presented, as long as its function remains the same. Similarly, the shape of thebody 17 may vary, as well as the more detailed cross-section of thefillet 15. Thebodies 17 can also be made in such a way that the rocker lever can be installed in them in one position only, wherein, for example, the structure corresponding to either thehole 27 or thehole 28 is in use, and in which case the whole body with its mechanism must be replaced if the function is to be changed to the reverse. - The above description has dealt with one embodiment of the
rocker lever 30 and thepinion 19, which is simple and reliable, but the corresponding function can also be implemented with other mechanisms utilizing a wobbler, to convert a limited rotary movement to either a rocking movement or a linear movement (movement of the guide pin 16). However, it is a particular characteristic of the invention that the rotary movement is not manual but it is produced mechanically and depending on the location of the panel, simultaneously when the panel is moved in any case. The locking into the different positions is also significant. - In the embodiment shown in
Figs. 8 and 9 , the guide is moved into either of the positions on the basis of external control. The mechanism can also be arranged so that the transfer into the different positions can be made manually as well, for example by using a turning knob coupled to the shaft of thepinion 19, or by turning thepinion 19 with a tool. In this case, the use of the mechanism will not be prevented by breaking of the cogging or the counterpiece. - In some structural embodiments, it is not necessary to couple the rocker lever onto a separate shaft (e.g. by means of the hole 36), but it is placed directly around the
eccentric protrusion 35. In that case, the protrusion encloses theshaft 34, and for example the mechanism or the inner surface of thebody 17 is equipped with guide track structures to guide the movement of theguide pin 16 up and down. The shape of the guide pin or means 16 may vary, wherein it may also have a wedge-like, conical or a rectangular shape. Theguide pin 16 may also be provided with or replaced by a horizontally and/or vertically placed wheel which is supported to the inner walls of the guide track. At thecounterpiece 18, on the upper surface of the lower guide track, there may be an opening which is wider than the normal groove and through which a wheel, wider than the groove, can move out of the guide track and back. - In this case, the pinion or other rotary means 19 is equipped with a cogging, but the number of cogs may be different from that presented. The
hole 37 in therocker lever 30 can also be formed in the protrusion or bulge on the side of the rocker lever, and thehole 37 does not need to extend through therocker lever 30. In the rocker lever ofFig. 5 , there is a hole on both sides, because the rocker lever can be installed in thebody 17 in two different positions, which is not always necessary. - In the presented embodiment, the
guide 14 is only coupled to the lower guide track, but in addition, a second guide can be installed at the upper guide track, possible coupled to the ceiling or the ceiling structures. Installation to the ceiling only is possible, provided that structures embedded in the ceiling are allowable, and if guide tracks installed on the floor surface are allowable. Simultaneous installation in the ceiling and in the floor is possible, if the other guide track parts support the panel to a sufficient extent, keep it in the desired position, and the moving is easy.
