Abstract

A locking system for a door or window has drive bars (3) and locking bars (4) linked via interlocking grips and toothed edges. A separate locking system (32) provides rapid and simple relative adjustment of the drive and locking bars, e.g. during installat ion. The installer releases the separate lock, adjusts the relative setting of the bars, including edge connectors, and resets the locking lever. The design enables a single handed adjustment.

Description

The present invention relates to a fitting arrangement for windows, Doors or the like with a sliding over a transmission gear rod and with a locking bar to be coupled to the gear rod, wherein on the gear rod, a gear rod coupling portion and provided on the locking bar a locking bar coupling portion over which the transmission rod and the locking bar to the common Move with each other are coupled.

In fitting arrangements of this type is usually the getriebeferne End of the gear rod one or both sides e.g. with outside Gears provided over a larger area of the gear rod extend. Depending on requirements, the locking bar part or Continuation of a bar exclusion or a corner drive, which are each coupled to the gear rod to a movement of the transmission via an operating handle in a corresponding movement implement the bar exclusion or corner deflection. to Coupling between the transmission rod and the locking bar is common at the end of the latch rod located near the drive a so-called Arranged tooth box, which has a U-shaped cross-section, wherein at the inner longitudinal sides of the tooth box counter teeth for the teeth provided at the free end of the transmission rod are formed. The free end of the gear rod can with its toothing used in the counter-toothing of the tooth box be so that the teeth in the direction of displacement of the gear rod form an undercut and thus the locking bar together with the transmission rod is displaceable.

To adapt fitting arrangements of this kind to different ones Window or door dimensions will usually be oversized manufactured, the teeth bearing free end of the transmission rod so far cut that when inserting the shortened end of the gear rod in the tooth box of the fitting part to be coupled Overall length of the fitting assembly has the desired length. to Adjustment, it is necessary that the gear rod by inserting of the gear box positioned in the frame and by screws is fixed. Also by the separate training of gear rod and locking bar adjustment is difficult because already two hands to Positioning of the individual elements are required. Due to the relatively complicated handling often requires readjustment which is especially time-consuming and costly is connected when cutting off the gear rod this too short is cut off and replaced the gear rack including gear must become.

The present invention is based on the object, a fitting arrangement specify the type mentioned, the fast, safe and precise mounting including adjustment allows.

Starting from a fitting arrangement of the type mentioned This object is achieved in that the coupling of transmission rod and locking bar on the transmission rod coupling portion and on the locking bar coupling portion in each other cross-locking elements are formed, with which the transmission rod and the locking bar in different locking positions with each other latched, and that a blocking element is provided by a release position is convertible to a blocking position, wherein at a mutual longitudinal displacement of gear rod and locking bar the locking connection is automatically releasable when the blocking element in the release position, and a release of the locking connection is prevented by the blocking element when this in the blocking position is located.

By the invention, the assembly of an inventively designed Fitting arrangement simplified while maintaining a safe and secure precise adjustment possible. The transmission fitting unit will now be assembled the fitting assembly used in the frame, wherein the transmission rod is in the desired position. The blocking element is in this case in its release position, in the one Moving the locking bar relative to the gear rod is possible. After insertion of the fitting in the Flügelaufnahmenut is the Locking rod from a detent position to the next detent position shifted relative to the transmission rod until the locking bar the desired Position has taken and the total length of the fitting assembly thus has the desired length. In this position can For example, associated with the locking bar corner or a corresponding positioning exactly at the corner of the frame issue. Since the blocking element is in its release position, is in each case an automatic unlatching of locking bar and gear rod ensured by simply moving the locking bar.

At the beginning of the adjustment is preferably opposite the locking bar the transmission rod pulled apart to its maximum length, so that for adjustment simply pushing together the locking bar opposite the gear rod is required.

After the desired total length of the fitting arrangement achieved is, the blocking element from its release position to its blocking position changed over, allowing a release of the current locking connection between the gear rod and the locking bar is no longer possible. The set total length of the fitting arrangement is thus automatic fixed and secured, so that the fitting arrangement now only must be tightened on the frame finally.

With the invention eliminates both a complicated, due to several Share relatively difficult to handle mounting and adjusting the Fitting arrangement because the desired length by simply pushing together the required parts can be adjusted. simultaneously By adjusting the blocking element is a fixation of the fitting assembly achieved, so that a complex measuring and possibly re-shortening the gear rod are not required.

According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention are after the automatic release of the locking connection the gear rod and the Locking bar in a continued moving automatically into the next latching position can be transferred. By not only releasing the current locking connection, but also the snapping into the next Detent position when moving the locking bar is done automatically, can the adjustment of the fitting arrangement in a single continuous Operation done.

According to another preferred embodiment of the invention at least one of the locking elements for releasing the locking connection against a bias adjustable when the blocking element in his Release position is located. In contrast, this adjustment is by the blocking element prevents, when this is in the blocking position located. The bias can be characterized by an elastic training of the locking elements (s) done. However, it is also possible that the Bias is generated by one or more spring element (s). By The pre-tension is guaranteed to be during the shifting the locking element again and again automatically a locking connection between adjusts the locking element and the transmission element.

The blocking element preferably comprises one or more blocking sections, in the blocking position of the blocking element on the adjustable Locking element or on the adjustable locking elements to the plant come and hold this / this in the locked position. By the Attacking the blocking portion directly on the adjustable locking element is a very simple and trouble-free blocking of the latched Locking elements possible.

According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the on the gear rod coupling portion and / or on the locking bar coupling portion trained locking elements as teeth educated. In particular, the locking elements can chamfer by which when shifting gear rack from each other and locking bar whose locking connection is automatically released.

The gearing is a quasi-continuous mutual locking Lock bar and gear rod possible. in principle However, other suitable fasteners, such as Detent balls or pegs with corresponding Rasmulden or holes are used as long as with these, for example by the specified ramps, an automatic release of the locking connection is possible.

According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the Locking rod in the region of the locking bar coupling portion and the Transmission rod in the area of the transmission rod coupling section in mutually offset planes, overlapping each other. at Known fitting arrangements is the locking bar as an extension the gear rod usually aligned with this in a plane arranged. Only the relatively short tooth box is offset Level of the locking bar and gear rod arranged to the aligned To allow arrangement of the two rods. Through this aligned Arrangement is in the known fitting arrangements, however Adjustment game reduced to the relatively short length of the tooth box, because when moving further, the frontal free end of the gear rod at the end, arranged in the same plane end of Bar rod abuts and thus another mutual displacement and adjustment possibility is prevented.

By the inventive staggered arrangement of Locking rod and gear rod in the region of their respective coupling sections becomes an overlap of the latch bar and the gear bar achieved, so that a large adjustment margin available in the longitudinal direction is. The overlapping arrangement prevents the transmission rod and the locking bar when adjusting against each other with their End sides abut each other, making the stand out The art known cutting the gear rod no longer required is.

According to another preferred embodiment of the invention is a Forearm provided, wherein the gear rod and / or the locking bar along the face plate are displaceable and the blocking element at least partially applied to the outside of the faceplate. Preferably form the gear rod, the locking bar and the Faceplate a preassembled unit, whereby the handling in the Adjustment to known, consisting of several parts Beschlaganordnungen is significantly simplified. By the plant of the Blocking element on the outside of the faceplate is on the one hand Cover provided in the faceplate openings and for others achieved a captive training the fitting assembly.

Advantageously, an opening is formed in the face plate, through which the Blocking element passes through. In this case, the blocking element in a Direction transversely, in particular perpendicular to the faceplate and / or to Gear rod and / or the locking bar between the release position and the blocker position be umstellbar. This is an unhindered Access to the blocking element from the outside possible, allowing the adjustment the fitting arrangement is facilitated.

For example, the blocking element with the with the transmission rod coupling portion or with the drive rod coupling section connected, in particular screwed by means of a screw, about the conversion of the blocking element between the release position and the blocking position takes place. Has the locking bar after the Pushing together the desired locking position reached, so can Twisting the screw still the first of the face plate slightly lifted blocking element so through the faceplate and thus to be moved to the gear rod, that the blocking portions of the blocking element to the adjustable locking elements so to Attachment that these are no longer out of their locked position can be moved out. This is the fitting arrangement easy way fixed in their length.

In a further preferred embodiment of the invention is the Transmission rod coupling portion as separated from the transmission rod Coupling part formed, which is connected to the transmission rod, in particular riveted. The coupling part can be inside and / or external, in particular designed as a toothing Have latching elements, wherein the coupling part in particular at least an outside, in particular on two opposite Outer sides preferably designed as a toothing locking elements comprises. In principle, however, it is also possible that the coupling part for example, formed on its upper side, for example as a toothing Having latching elements, which with a corresponding counter element, For example, a counter toothing on the locking bar in engagement can be brought.

The coupling part or portions of the coupling part can substantially formed displaceable transversely to the transmission rod against the bias be. For example, the trained as teeth Locking elements may be formed on elastic support members, each are so elastically deformable that the gears disengaged corresponding provided on the locking bar counter teeth come. In principle, however, it is also possible that the transmission rod coupling portion formed integrally with the gear rod is.

According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is the Locking rod coupling portion formed integrally with the locking bar. In this case, the locking bar coupling section preferably comprises a trained in particular as a slot adjustment hole along which Bounding at least partially locking elements are provided. These Locking elements can be designed in particular as a toothing and interact with the locking elements on the gear rod coupling portion. By forming the locking bar coupling section as a slot is a particularly simple design of the coupling unit possible. Furthermore, by an appropriate length the slot are set a relatively large area over which the Locking rod and the gear rod are mutually displaceable. ever longer formed as an elongated hole adjustment hole is formed, the more greater is the range within which an adjustment of the erimendungsgemäß trained fitting arrangement is possible. Exemplary values can be between 5 and 30 cm.

Further embodiments of the invention are in the subclaims specified.

Fig. 1 shows a fitting assembly 1, a faceplate 2, a below the faceplate 2 parallel to this extending gear rod. 3 and a arranged between the face-plate 2 and the transmission rod 3, includes parallel to these extending locking bar 4.

The gear rod 3 is seated in its illustrated in Fig. 1 right Range to a transmission, not shown, over which they in the longitudinal direction parallel to the faceplate 2 and the locking bar 4 in the usual Way according to an arrow 5 is displaceable.

In an analogous manner, the illustrated in Fig. 1 left end of the locking bar 4 also continues and may, for example, a rod exclusion form or connected to a corner drive. It is arranged between the faceplate 2 and the transmission rod 3 Lock bar 4 also slidable in the longitudinal direction, as by an arrow 6 is indicated.

As can be seen in particular Fig. 3, is on the top the gear rod 3 a separate coupling part 7 attached, the one Gear rod coupling portion 8 forms.

The coupling part 7 is made of resilient material, for example manufactured and riveted to the gear rod 3, for example, screwed, glued or otherwise attached to this.

The coupling part 7 has a base plate 9, at the longitudinal direction lying ends are each formed laterally two lugs 10. The Lugs 10 extend substantially perpendicularly from the base plate 9 upwards and have free ends 11, which are substantially rectangular opposite the lugs 10 each to the outside Longitudinal sides 12 of the gear rod 3 are bent. At every free End 11 are each formed two outwardly facing teeth 13, the together with the lugs 10 a toothing 14 of the transmission rod coupling portion 8 form.

The tooth flanks of each tooth 13 each form two obliquely converging Run-up slopes 15, wherein each of the tooth apex 16 and the each formed between two teeth 13 tooth base 17 flattened are formed.

At both end portions of the base plate 9, a pin 27 is formed in each case, each perpendicular to the base plate 9 upwards extends.

In the middle of the base plate 9, a bore 18 is formed through the a bolt 19 is passed, which on its underside with the gear rod 3 is rotatably riveted, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 is recognizable. The transmission rod 3 also has a bore for this purpose 20, through which the bolt 19 is passed.

The bolt 19 has at its upper end a screw head 21 with a receiving opening 22 for an Allen key 21, wherein the outer circumference of the screw head 21 is provided with an external thread 23 is. Of course, the receiving opening as a slot, be designed as a cross recess or in any other usual manner.

In particular, from Fig. 2 it can be seen that in the locking bar 4 a Slot 24 is formed, which is an adjustment opening for the fitting arrangement 1 forms. At the top of the locking bar 4 is along the Long sides of the elongated hole 24 each have a toothing 25, the a plurality of teeth 26, the tooth flanks of which slope bevels 28 form. The teeth 25 are each in a stepped Paragraph formed on the top of the locking bar 4 and form counter teeth for the trained on the gear rod coupling portion 8 Gears 14, being substantially complementary to these are formed so that when a meshing of the teeth 25 and 14 each have a tooth crest 29 of a tooth 26 in one Tooth base 27 between two teeth 13 engages. The section of Lock bar with the slot 24 and the teeth 25 form it a locking bar coupling portion 37 of the locking bar. 4

Furthermore, it can be seen from Fig. 2, that the outer width of the base plate 9 substantially corresponds to the inner width of the slot 24 and the height of the tabs 10 is substantially equal to the thickness of the locking bar 4 without teeth 25 is. When assembling transmission rod 3 with the gear rod coupling portion 8 and the Lock bar 4 in the manner shown in Fig. 2 thereby engage the Gears 14 and 25 as shown in Fig. 2 into each other.

From FIGS. 4 and 5 it can be seen that the lugs 10 together with the base plate 9 have a U-shaped cross section, wherein the Leg of the U-shaped cross-section forming projections 10 of a elastic material are formed, so that bending of the lugs 10 respectively in the direction of the central longitudinal axis of the gear rod 3 out is possible, as shown in Fig. 5. By this elastic training the lugs 10 and 15 and 28 due to the ramps be in a mutual displacement of the locking bar 4 to the Gear rod 3, the lugs 10 together with at the free ends 11 trained teeth 13 automatically bent inward, like it is shown in Fig. 5, until the maximum bending of the lugs 10 is reached is, in the two tooth crests 16, 29 abut each other. At a further displacement of the locking bar 4 takes place due to the bias the elastic lugs 10 automatically re-mesh the teeth 14 and 25, so that these locking elements of the fitting assembly 1 form. Due to the large number of teeth 26 can thus at a mutual displacement of the transmission rod 3 and the Lock bar 4 this in a variety of different locking positions locked together.

From Fig. 1 it can be seen that in the face plate 2, an opening 30th is formed, which is partially covered by a cover plate 31. The Cover plate 31 is formed for example of plastic and forms a blocking element 32 for between the transmission rod and the locking bar acting latching connection, as set forth in more detail below becomes. The blocking element 32 has on its underside two approaches, form the blocking element sections 33 and through the opening 30th are passed in the face plate 2. Due to that shown in Fig. 1 In longitudinal section, the blocking element sections 33 are each only shown in half their width, their entire width, for example to recognize from Figs. 4 and 5. The width of the blocking element sections 33 is substantially equal to the distance between the two each transverse to the gear rod 3 opposite approaches 10, wherein the blocking element portions 33 each between them engage two lugs 10, in particular this distance substantially completely fill that prevents bending back of the lugs 10 is when a transmission operation takes place, as can be seen from Fig. 4 is.

In the position of the blocking element shown in FIGS. 1, 4 and 6 32 is this in its blocking position, in which a release of as Locking elements acting teeth 14 and 25 is prevented.

The blocking element 32 is in a direction perpendicular to the transmission rod 3, the locking bar 4 and the faceplate 2 adjustable, so it from its blocking position shown in Figs. 1, 4 and 6 in the in Fig. 5 illustrated release position is repositioned. In the release position the blocking element portions 33 do not protrude into the area between the Approaches 10 into it, so that a bending of the lugs 10 and thus a Decoupling of the locking elements forming teeth 14 and 25th is possible, as shown in Fig. 5.

The adjustment of the blocking element 32 takes place via the bolt 19, with its external thread 23 in a corresponding, in the blocking element 32 provided screw opening 34 with internal thread 35 is screwed.

As can be seen in particular from FIGS. 5 and 6, the depth of the Screw opening 34 greater than the height of the screw head 21, so that by turning the bolt 19, the blocking element 32nd switched between its release position and its blocking position can be.

Furthermore, it can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 6 that the blocking element 32 has on its underside two receiving openings 36, in which the Pin 27 engage when the blocking element 32 in its blocking position located.

The fitting arrangement according to the invention is used as follows. In front the assembly of the fitting assembly was factory pre-assembled from faceplate 2, locking bar 4, gear rod 3, coupling part 7, blocking element 32 and bolt 19. Due to the rotatable Riveting the bolt 19 with the gear rod 3 and the Screwing with the blocking element 32 is the fitting arrangement pre-assembled in captive. In the pre-assembled state is the Bolt 19 only screwed in so far that the blocking element 32 is in its release position.

To adjust the fitting assembly 1 is first by moving the locking bar 4 pulled apart to its maximum length. Subsequently, the fitting assembly 1 in the fitting receiving groove of the door or window frame used, so that on the face-plate 2 fixed gear box in a corresponding opening in the frame to come to rest.

To adjust to the size of the frame then the locking bar 4 as long as shifted in the direction of the gearbox until the Fitting arrangement is adapted to the size of the frame and the Bar 4 their desired position (for example, with aligned Corner or with aligned positioning) has reached. The teeth 14 and 25 acting as locking elements form in this case a ratchet-like connection, due to the ramps 15, 18th as well as the elastic configuration of the lugs 10 automatically respectively is solvable.

After this simple alignment of the bolt 19 is rotated, whereby the blocking element 31 formed as a cover plate 32 descends to the surface of the faceplate 2. This occurs simultaneously the blocking element sections 33 in the space between each two opposing lugs 10 a, whereby a re-bending the lugs 10 is no longer possible. The fitting arrangement is thus fixed in the adjusted position, so that another Moving the locking bar 4 with respect to the transmission rod 3 not is more possible and the fitting assembly 1 now completely to the Frame can be screwed on.
