Description

The present invention relates to a sliding door according to the preamble of claim 1.
Window resp. Window sashes are usually arranged in a frame, wherein the frame serves both for connection to the building, to which the window is to be attached, as well as the movable support of the window resp. the sash to itself.
Under sliding doors resp. windows are such doors resp. Window understood which opened by a relative to the frame lateral displacement resp. can be closed. Frequently, such doors resp. Window designed as a lift-sliding doors, in which the lock resp. Unlocking of the movable sash in the closed position is carried out by a lifting movement, while the opening is subsequently carried out in the raised position by lateral displacement of the window sash. For this purpose, the frame on the bottom and / or top guides for the support of the movable sash. In addition, other fittings can be arranged on the wing, which also allow tilting of the wing in addition to the lateral displacement.
The advantage of such windows resp. Doors compared to swiveling windows resp. Doors is that they can be easily moved even with large dimensions, ie can be opened and closed and in particular vertically to the window resp. Door surface have no space when opening. Also, such windows are respectively. Doors very good for automation, ie the equipment with a motor drive for the movement of the door resp. Casement.
Often, such door resp. Window sash not to be fully opened, but it suffices, for example, for airing already a small opening movement. The only small opening movement creates a gap between the one vertical frame profile and the frame profile facing vertical door resp. Casement edge. This gap is visible both from the inside and from the outside and allows not only the air but also undesirably any rain, dirt or insects to enter the interior of the building unhindered. There is also an increased risk of burglary through the opening gap, since the opening state is obviously also recognizable from a greater distance and usually in this state, no locking of Türresp. Window sash is activated.
The object of the present invention was to provide a construction for such sliding doors resp. window, which allows the door resp. Partially open window sash, without the disadvantages described occur.
This object is achieved according to the invention by a sliding door according to claim 1. Further, inventive embodiments will become apparent from the features of further claims 2 to 9.

In a sliding door with frame for receiving at least one relative to the frame at least displaceably arranged wing of the sliding door, wherein the frame has a vertical post against which the closing edge of the movable sash of the sliding sliding door comes into abutment in the closed state, according to the invention, the vertical post at least one hollow profile , In this case, the hollow profile covers in the closed state of the wing at least partially a side surface of the closing edge and has at least in the side surface of the closing edge and facing away from the vertical post lateral surfaces openings resp. Recesses which communicate with each other within the hollow profile.
Thus, with only a small opening of the wing, the gap between the wing and the vertical post covered by the hollow profile, wherein the draft still respected by the openings arranged in the hollow profile, respectively. Recesses can circulate. Advantageously, the hollow profile on the building exterior side of the frame resp. arranged the vertical post, whereby the gap formed between the wing and vertical post is covered from the outside. This reliably prevents rain or dirt from passing directly through the gap into the interior of the building when the sash is only slightly open. Thus, a ventilation of the rooms is possible, as is known, for example, from folding windows ago, also by means of sliding doors, respectively. Sliding window possible, without the straight in the lower part of these sliding doors resp. sliding window occurring rain or dirt enters the building interior.
Another advantage is that from the outside, the gap is not directly or obviously visible and thus the impression of a completely closed and locked door resp. Window is maintained. Thus, the risk of burglary is even with slightly open door resp. Window already greatly reduced.
Despite the hollow profile, especially in the closed state, an aesthetically compact and shapely impression of the sliding door resp. windows are preserved. By the arrangement of the recesses resp. Openings and air ducts in the interior of the hollow profile, for example, the incoming wind is deflected several times and slowed down, so that a ventilation at high wind speeds is possible without an unpleasant draft arises.
The air flow inside the hollow profile can be done in different ways. For example, the hollow profile may have a continuous cavity, with which all openings resp. Recesses are related, or it may inside the hollow profile several channel-like connections between individual openings resp. Recesses or groups of openings or recesses may be formed.
Preferably, the hollow profile extends at least over the entire height of the closing edge of the wing, preferably over the entire height of the vertical post.

Thus, a complete coverage of the gap between the wing and vertical post is achieved.
Furthermore, the hollow profile preferably has a substantially rectangular cross-section. Thus, the hollow profile can be produced in a cost effective design and adapts also in an aesthetically advantageous form of the shape of the frame. Of course, the hollow profile for special applications may also have a different cross-sectional shape.
Preferably, the hollow profile has a multi-part construction, wherein the lateral surfaces with the openings consist of openings or holes having sheet metal parts or plastic bands, which are arranged on a preferably made of wood or plastic, in cross section at least partially recesses having posts. This can in particular the recesses resp. Produce openings rationally and yet produce a stable and high aesthetically pleasing profile. Another advantage is that just these visible from the outside surfaces of the hollow profile so that the appearance and / or material of the frame resp. the frame of the wing can be adapted, whereby a standardized basic element in the form of the post can be maintained. This post is advantageously made of the same material as the vertical post of the frame, which consists for example of wood. Of course, the post may also consist of other material, such as a plastic profile or a metal profile.

Preferably, in the region of the openings resp. Recesses of the hollow profile at least partially additionally arranged filter elements. These are preferably arranged on the inside of the hollow profile and as immediately the openings resp. Recesses covering resp. filling filter elements formed. By means of such filter elements, for example, insects, dust particles or pollen can be kept away in an ideal manner and are therefore also filtered out during ventilation. Advantageously, these filter elements are designed to be interchangeable, so that in the case of high pollution easily replaced resp. can be replaced.
Preferably, these filter elements are formed by close-meshed grids, fleece or sponge-like structures. Such filter elements can be easily and inexpensively make for the required dimensions and also easily replace resp. replace.
Preferably, at least one securing bolt is arranged on the vertical post, which is formed in each case engageable in a correspondingly formed retaining element of the closing edge of the wing, wherein the securing bolt in lowered resp. locked position of the wing engages in the retaining element such that between the closing edge and the vertical post, a gap is formed. Thus, a reliable locking is realized even in the slightly open position of the wing. This is resp. activated burglary protection a venting possible, whereby the partial opening of the wing is not obviously visible through the hidden gap. The securing bolt may advantageously have a plurality of locking steps, so that the locking can be ensured in several positions, such as in the fully closed position and a first ventilation position with only slightly open wing.
Furthermore, a sliding door with at least one transparent insert in the wing is preferably proposed, in which, in the closed position of the wing, the vertical edge of the insert facing the closing edge of the wing comes to lie practically flush with the lateral surface of the hollow profile facing away from the vertical post. As a transparent insert, a glass insert will often be used. This is especially for transparent doors resp. Window, even in the closed state aesthetically compact and shapely appearance preserved.
Preferably, the displaceably arranged wing on a lifting-closing device, which has a single, a plurality of horizontally spaced apart or a variable closing position. Thus, the desired air volume for the ventilation can be easily adjusted by correspondingly smaller or larger displacement of the wing.
Embodiments of the present invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to figures. Show it

• Figure 1 shows the view and cross section through a two-leaf sliding window in the closed position.
• 2 shows the view and cross section through the sliding window according to FIG. 1 in a partially opened position;
• 3 shows the cross section through the inventively designed vertical post of the frame and the movable sash of the sliding window in the region of the closing edge in the closed position.
• 4 shows the cross section according to FIG. 3 in the partially opened position; and
• Fig. 5 shows the cross section of Figure 3 in a further, only slightly open, but locked position.

In Figure 1, the frame 1 with the two vertical posts 2 is shown in the view from the inside of a building, in which a displaceable wing 3 and a stationary wing 4 are arranged and form a sliding window according to the invention. For actuating the displaceable wing 3, a handle 5 is arranged on the building inside the wing 3, with which on the one hand, the locking of the wing 3 is actuated and with which on the other hand, the sliding movement is transmitted to the wing 3.

In the case of the lifting sliding window shown for example, a vertical movement of the wing 3 is effected with this handle 5, which the wing. 3 lifts from its closed locking position and allows lateral displacement of the wing 3.
As can be seen from the cross section AA, the two wings are 3 resp. 4 offset from each other arranged in parallel, so that the movable wing 3 can slide in the figure 1 to the right behind the stationary wing 4 and thus opens the window. Especially for large dimensions of the wing 3 so space saving an opening option for the window is created.
In Figure 2, the window is shown in a partially open position. The wing 3 has been displaced to the right, whereby between the closing edge 6 of the wing 3 and the vertical post 2 a visible from the inside gap 7 is formed. From the outside, this gap 7 is not visible, since it is covered by arranged on the vertical post 2 hollow section 8, as can be seen from the cross section AA. Only when the window is opened further, ie the wing 3 is moved further to the right and thus the gap 7 is substantially increased, it is also visible from the outside (above in the cross section AA) ago.
FIG. 3 shows in more detail the cross section through the sliding window formed in accordance with the invention in the area between vertical post 2 and closing edge 6 in the closed state of the wing 3. The vertical post 2 is here embedded in a recess 9 of the masonry 10 and connected thereto, preferably glued or screwed. The vertical post 2 now has, at its end directed towards the outside, a hollow profile 8 directed to the right towards the wing 3.
Thus, the vertical post 2 and the hollow section 8 form an L-shaped cross-sectional area which surround the closing edge 6 of the wing 3 to the outside. In the closed state, the closing edge 6, preferably provided with a groove 6 ', comes into abutment against a sealing strip 11 of the vertical post 2. For a tight connection between the vertical post 2 and the wing 3 is formed.
Advantageously, in this closed position of the wing 3, the lateral end face 12 and the visible edge 13 of the glass element 14 of the wing 3 are aligned flush in the plan. This creates an aesthetically compact and shapely view of the window both from the outside and from the inside.
In FIG. 4, the cross section according to FIG. 3 is now shown in the partially open position of the wing 3. The closing edge 6 is still covered from the outside by the hollow section 8, wherein over the entire height of the wing 3 extending gap 7 is formed. From the outside now an air flow 15 can flow through recesses 16 in the end face 12 of the hollow section 8 in the interior of the hollow section 8 and from there via the openings 17 in the inner surface 18 of the hollow section 8 in the gap 7 and thus reach the building interior. Conversely, an exhaust air stream 19 from the inside of the building via the gap 7 to flow outward and thus cause a ventilation of the building interior.

From the outside, while the gap 7 in this position of the wing 3 is not visible and visually affects the window as before closed. This prevents potential burglars from attempting a quick attempt to access the building interior, since it is not visually obvious that the wing 3 is ever partially open.
In addition to this preventive theft prevention is also prevented, for example, rain over the gap 7 can penetrate into the building interior. Since the air flow 15 is deflected several times and relatively small recesses 16 resp. Openings 17 is largely prevented that water droplets or coarse air particles or dirt can penetrate into the building interior. This can additionally by appropriately trained flow channels between the recesses 16, respectively. the openings 17 are supported in the interior of the hollow section 8.
Both the front surface 12 and the inner surface 18 may be formed for example by plastic or metal profiles, which are attached to the main body of the hollow section 8 forming post 20. Such profiles can be manufactured inexpensively as a piece of goods and optically, for example, the protective cover 21 of the wing 3 are adjusted, for example, in relation to the material and / or the color.
Further, in the region of the recesses 16 resp. Openings 17 filter elements 22 may be arranged. These filter elements 22 may, for example, flat Filter mats be made of different materials or tile. Such filter elements 22 can thus also capture finer particles such as pollen or dust or insects and allow appropriately purified air to flow into the building interior.
Next, a securing bolt 23 is shown in Figure 4, which is advantageously mounted on the vertical post 2 in the region of the sealing strip 11 and facing in the direction of the closing edge 6 of the wing 3. In the wing 3 itself, a retaining element 24 is arranged, for example in the region of the groove 6 'of the closing edge 6. The securing bolt 23 has, for example, a conical, tapered outward head with a steeply sloping trailing edge, which can engage for example in a slot in the retaining element 24 and with the trailing edge against the inside of the slot can come into abutment.
Thus, for example, the wing 3 can be locked and secured in a slightly open position, as shown in FIG. Even in this only slightly open position now the exhaust air flow 19 can circulate through the hollow section 8 and allow ventilation of the building interior, the wing 3 is locked and secured. From the outside, this only slightly open position thanks to the cover of the gap 7 through the hollow profile is practically not recognizable, in no case it is obvious and also recognizable from a distance. The retaining element 24 resp. the securing bolt 23 may preferably also be designed such that a Locking of the wing 3 is done in the closed state.
The inventive design of the frame 1 with the hollow section 8 additionally has the advantage of effecting a sound-damping effect already by the deflection of the air flow 15 alone. Through the use of additional elements, such as filling the cavities of the hollow section 8 with porous insulation material, the sound insulation can be further increased, which predestines the use just for urban environment. Due to the mixing of the inflowing air flow 15 with the exhaust air stream 19, the hollow profile 8 acts as a heat exchanger in cold periods, whereby the fresh but cold outside air is preheated.
The amount of ventilation can be regulated by the size of the opening movement of the wing 3 in the simplest way. In this case, the wing 3 either continuously or in discrete steps adjustable resp. be formed displaceable.
Further, it is conceivable to support the ventilation, in addition to provide a fan. This can for example also be accommodated directly in the hollow section 8 or arranged at a suitable location on the frame 1.

It is clear that the present invention extends not only to sliding windows but also to sliding doors. In this case, the wings 3 can either be slidably mounted in the frame, or be equipped by means of a known lifting-sliding device. It is also conceivable that the wings 3 are additionally equipped with tilt fittings or Parallelschiebekippbeschlägen to perform in addition to the sliding movement in the open or partially open position and a tilting movement can. Thus, for example, the wings as Parallelkippschiebefenster resp. be formed doors in which both the fixed and the movable wings are arranged in the same plane in the closed state. Only when opening the movable sash is this moved by a backdrop-shaped positive guide to the inside and then laterally.
