At the moment when these members act on this edge, the curtain 1 is at the same linear speed as the control member.

Claims (15)

  1. Vorrichtung mit Vorhang, der auf einer Spindel (2) montiert ist, um die der Vorhang (1) in eine Öffnungsposition aufgewickelt werden kann und von der er in eine Verschlussposition abgewickelt werden kann, wobei ein Antriebsrad (7) koaxial an der Spindel (2) befestigt ist und derart mit dem Vorhang (1) zusammenwirkt, dass es diesen zwischen den beiden Positionen bewegen kann, wobei die Vorrichtung mit Vorhang ein flexibles längliches Steuerungsorgan (11) umfasst, das mit dem Antriebsrad (7) zusammenwirkt, wobei dieses Organ (11) in Bezug auf den Vorhang frei montiert ist, so dass einerseits der Vorhang (1) unabhängig von einer schlaffen Stelle, die sich gegebenenfalls in dem Vorhang (1) gebildet hat, zwischen seiner Öffnungsposition und seiner Verschlussposition bewegt werden kann, und so dass es andererseits entlang von mindestens einem der Seitenränder (4) des Vorhangs (1) bewegt werden kann und auf den Bereich (8) des Letzteren einwirken kann, der jenem entgegengesetzt ist, der an der Spindel (2) montiert ist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Wälzkreisdurchmesser des Antriebsrads (7) einerseits kleiner als der Durchmesser des aufgewickelten Teils des Vorhangs (1) in seiner Öffnungsposition und andererseits größer als der Durchmesser der oben genannten Spindel (2) oder des aufgewickelten Teils des Vorhangs (1) in seiner Verschlussposition ist.
  2. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Wälzkreisdurchmesser des Antriebsrads (7) gleich der oder größer als die Hälfte der Summe des Durchmessers des aufgewickelten Teils des Vorhangs (1) in seiner Öffnungsposition und des Durchmessers der oben genannten Spindel (2) oder des aufgewickelten Teils des Vorhangs (1) in seiner Verschlussposition ist.
  3. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass Mittel vorgesehen sind, die es ermöglichen, höchstens eine Windung des Steuerungsorgans (11) um das Antriebsrad (7) aufzuwickeln, und zwar parallel zu einer Ebene, die senkrecht zur Achse (6) der Spindel (2) ist.
  4. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 3, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Steuerungsorgan (11) in der Richtung seiner Länge im Wesentlichen nicht komprimierbar ist.
  5. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 4, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das oben genannte Organ (11) geeignet ist, eine Schubkraft auf den Vorhang (1) auszuüben, um ihn in seine Verschlussposition zu bringen.
  6. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 5, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass oben genannte Steuerungsorgan (11) ein Element umfasst, das in der Richtung seiner Länge nicht komprimierbar ist.
  7. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 6, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Antriebsrad (7) eine Aufeinanderfolge von Vorsprüngen oder Vertiefungen (9) aufweist, die mit dem Steuerungsorgan (11) zusammenwirkt und sich in einem konstanten Abstand zueinander entlang des Umfangs eines Kreises erstrecken, dessen Mittelpunkt sich auf der Achse (6) des oben genannten Rads (7) befindet.
  8. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 7, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Steuerungsorgan (11) ein Endlosband oder eine Endloskette umfasst.
  9. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 8, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass an dem Vorhang (1) Mittel vorgesehen sind, die es ermöglichen, die Bildung einer schlaffen Stelle in ihm zu vermeiden, wenn er abgewickelt wird.
  10. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 9, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass diese Mittel eine Beschwerung (22) an dem Rand des Vorhangs (1) umfassen, der jenem entgegengesetzt ist, der an der oben genannten Spindel (2) montiert ist.
  11. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 10, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Antriebsrad derart koaxial an der Spindel (2) montiert ist, dass es sich mit der gleichen Winkelgeschwindigkeit wie die Spindel (2) bewegen kann.
  12. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 11, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass sie Schienen (5) umfasst, in denen sich die Seitenränder (4) des Vorhangs (1) und das Steuerungsorgan (11) parallel zueinander bewegen können.
  13. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 12, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Antriebsrad (7) derart ausgestaltet ist, dass das Steuerungsorgan (11) darauf spiralenförmig um seine Drehachse herum aufgewickelt werden kann.
  14. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 13, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Antriebsrad (7) eine kegelstumpfartige Form aufweist, so dass sowohl beim Abwickeln als auch beim Aufwickeln des Steuerungsorgans seine Lineargeschwindigkeit im Wesentlichen jener des Vorhangs (1) entspricht, der sich zwischen seiner Öffnungsposition und seiner Verschlussposition bewegt.
  15. Vorrichtung nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 14, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass eine Ausgleichvorrichtung an der oben genannten Spindel (2) montiert ist, die es ermöglicht, die Umlaufbewegung des aufgewickelten Teils des Vorhangs (1) an die Bewegung des Steuerungsorgans (11) anzupassen.
