Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Gelenkanordnung zur Betätigung einer Klappe, insbesondere Rauchabzugsklappe oder Kuppel, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a joint arrangement for actuating a flap, in particular a smoke outlet flap or dome, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei einer derartigen bekannten Gelenkanordnung zur Betätigung einer Rauchabzugsklappe gemäß FR 2 671 821 A1 ist das lineare Antriebselement zentral unter einem beweglichen Traversenteil angeordnet, welches zusammen mit der Rauchabzugsklappe schwenkbar ist. Das lineare Antriebselement in Form eines Zylinders dient im wesentlichen zur Betätigung einer Verriegelung der Rauchabzugsklappe an einer von deren erster Drehachse entfernten Stelle und steht hierzu mit der Verriegelung über eine Spindel bzw. Stange in Verbindung. Ein zweites Ende des linearen Antriebselements ist an ein bewegliches Traversenteil bzw. die mit ihm verbundene Klappe über eine erste Stange angelenkt, die als Umlenkhebel betrachtet werden kann. Weiterhin ist das zweite Ende des linearen Antriebselements über eine zweite Stange, die als Stützhebel angesehen werden kann, gelenkig mit einem unteren Abschnitt eines ortsfesten Aufsatzes bzw. Aufsatzkranzes verbunden, an dem oben drehbar der Lüftungsrahmen der Rauchabzugsklappe gelagert ist. Zwei Öffnungsmechanismen sind symmetrisch zu der vertikalen Mittelebene, in der das lineare Antriebselement angeordnet ist, in größtem Abstand zu diesem auf beiden parallelen Innenseiten des Aufsatzkranzes angeordnet. Sie greifen mit einem Ende etwa in der Mitte der Längserstreckung der Seiten des Aufsatzes an diesen an. Jeder der beiden Öffnungsmechanismen umfasst eine hydropneumatische Feder sowie eine Zugfeder aus Metall, die in zueinander parallelen vertikalen Ebenen angeordnet sind. Das der Befestigungsstelle an dem Aufsatz entgegengesetzte Ende der hydropneumatischen Feder ist mit dem beweglichen Lüftungsrahmen verbunden, so dass sie in geschlossener Stellung des Rahmens annähernd waagerecht liegt. Das der Befestigungsstelle entgegengesetzte Ende der metallischen Zugfeder ist demgegenüber in dieser Stellung des Lüftungsrahmens abgesenkt und steht über ein einseitig gelenkiges Gestänge mit dem beweglichen Lüftungsrahmen in Verbindung. Die beiden Öffnungsmechanismen sollen im wesentlichen die Betätigungskraft zum Öffnen der Rauchabzugsklappe zur Verfügung stellen, während die zentrale Betätigungseinrichtung, welche einen Betätigungszylinder bzw. ein lineares Antriebselement umfasst, die zum Schließen erforderliche Kraft zur Verfügung stellen soll und das Öffnen nur unterstützen soll, um dieses bei Überlast zuverlässig zu bewirken. Die Wirkung der Öffnungsmechanismen wird durch die Entriegelung mittels des zentralen Antriebselements ausgelöst. Beim Öffnen wird die Wirkung der hydropneumatischen Federn durch die Zugfedern infolge der Hebelwirkung des Gestänges unterstützt, über welches sie mit dem beweglichen Lüftungsrahmen in Verbindung stehen. Bevor der Lüftungsrahmen in seine Endstellung gelangt, kann seine Öffnungsbewegung durch die Zugfedern gedämpft werden. Beim Schließen der Rauchabzugsklappe bzw. des beweglichen Lüftungsrahmens durch das lineare Antriebselement werden die hydropneumatischen Federn wieder gespannt. Diese bekannte Gelenkanordnung ist wegen der verschiedenen Hebelsysteme, die einerseits an dem linearen Antriebselement und andererseits an den Öffnungsmechanismen vorgesehen sind, kompliziert. Die Anordnung der beiden Öffnungsmechanismen, welche jeweils die metallische Zugfeder und die hydropneumatische Feder umfassen, an den innen in dem Aufsatz einander gegenüberliegenden Seiten, ist sperrig und kann das Einleiten von Verwindungskräften in den Lüftungsrahmen verursachen, wenn die Rauchabzugsklappe betätigt wird.In such a known joint arrangement for actuating a smoke outlet flap according to FR 2 671 821 A1 the linear drive element is arranged centrally under a movable truss part, which is pivotable together with the flue outlet flap.

Furthermore, the second end of the linear drive member via a second rod, which can be regarded as a support lever, hingedly connected to a lower portion of a fixed essay or Aufsatzkranzes on which is rotatably mounted above the ventilation frame of the flue outlet flap. Two opening mechanisms are symmetrical to the vertical center plane in which the linear drive element is arranged is, at a great distance to this arranged on both parallel inner sides of the curb. They engage with one end approximately in the middle of the longitudinal extent of the sides of the attachment to this. Each of the two opening mechanisms comprises a hydropneumatic spring and a tension spring made of metal, which are arranged in mutually parallel vertical planes. The attachment point of the attachment opposite end of the hydropneumatic spring is connected to the movable ventilation frame, so that it is approximately horizontal in the closed position of the frame. The attachment point opposite end of the metallic tension spring is lowered in contrast in this position of the ventilation frame and is connected via a one-sided articulated linkage with the movable ventilation frame in combination. The two opening mechanisms are intended to provide substantially the actuating force for opening the smoke vent, while the central actuator, which comprises an actuating cylinder or linear actuator, is intended to provide the force required for closing and to assist in opening only Overload reliably effect. The effect of the opening mechanisms is triggered by the unlocking means of the central drive element. When opening the action of the hydropneumatic springs is supported by the tension springs due to the leverage of the linkage, via which they communicate with the movable ventilation frame. Before the ventilation frame reaches its end position, its opening movement can be damped by the tension springs. When closing the smoke outlet flap or the movable ventilation frame by the linear drive element, the hydropneumatic springs are stretched again. This known hinge assembly is complicated because of the various lever systems provided on the one hand on the linear drive member and on the other hand on the opening mechanisms. The arrangement of the two Opening mechanisms, each comprising the metallic tension spring and hydropneumatic spring, on the opposite sides of the interior of the tower are bulky and may cause the introduction of twisting forces into the ventilation frame when the smoke flaps are actuated.

Ansonsten sind vollständig selbsttätig betätigbare Gelenkanordnungen von RWA-Geräten bekannt, welche ein Öffnen und Schließen einer Klappe über einen großen Schwenkbereich mit nur einem linearen Antriebselement bewerkstelligen. Hierzu ist bei einer solchen bekannten Gelenkanordnung mit einem linearen Antriebselement an dessen erster Schwenkachse außer einem Stützhebel ein zusätzlicher Umlenkhebel mit einem ersten Ende schwenkbar angeordnet. Das zweite Ende des Umlenkhebels greift schwenkbar an einem oberen Traversenteil der Klappe im Abstand zu deren Drehachse und zu der Anbringungsstelle des ersten Endes des Antriebselements an ( EP 0 443 050 A2 ). In einer solchen Anordnung muss das lineare Antriebselement auch in extremen Situationen, beispielsweise wenn die Klappe vereist ist, allein die Öffnungskraft aufbringen. Andererseits kann die Klappe bei sehr weiter Öffnung unter Schwerkrafteinwirkung heftig in eine Endstellung schlagen. Auch das Schließen der Rauchabzugsklappe kann nahe der Endstellung unerwünscht heftig erfolgen.Otherwise, completely self-actuated joint arrangements of RWA devices are known, which accomplish opening and closing a flap over a large pivoting range with only one linear drive element. For this purpose, in such a known joint arrangement with a linear drive element at its first pivot axis except a support lever, an additional lever with a first end pivotally mounted. The second end of the reversing lever pivotally engages an upper truss part of the flap at a distance from its axis of rotation and to the attachment point of the first end of the drive element ( EP 0 443 050 A2 ). In such an arrangement, even in extreme situations, such as when the door is frosted, the linear drive member alone must apply the opening force. On the other hand, the flap can beat violently in an end position at very wide opening under the action of gravity. Also, the closing of the flue flap can be done near the end position undesirably violent.

Diese Unzulänglichkeit hat auch eine andere Gelenkanordnung zur Betätigung einer Klappe, insbesondere Rauchabzugsklappe, mit nur einem zentralen linearen Antriebselement, bei der nicht nur der Stützhebel, sondern auch der Umlenkhebel im Abstand zu einem Endabschnitt des Antriebselements, in dem sie schwenkbar gelagert sind, jeweils um eine ortsfeste Drehachse bzw. Schwenkachse schwenkbar sind ( EP 0 971 091 B1 ). Da diese Achsen kurz sein können, werden Reaktionskräfte des linearen Antriebselements über den Umlenkhebel und den Stützhebel quasi nur in ortsfeste Drehpunkte des Umlenkhebels bzw. des Stützhebels eingeleitet. Traversenteile sind daher nicht unbedingt erforderlich.This inadequacy also has another hinge arrangement for actuating a flap, in particular flue flap, with only one central linear drive element, in which not only the support lever, but also the lever at a distance to an end portion of the drive element, in which they are pivotally mounted, respectively a stationary axis of rotation or pivot axis are pivotable ( EP 0 971 091 B1 ). Since these axes can be short, reaction forces of the linear drive element become Initially initiated via the reversing lever and the support lever only in fixed pivot points of the reversing lever and the support lever. Traverse parts are therefore not essential.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine unkomplizierte, kompakte Gelenkanordnung zu schaffen, welche Nachteile der obigen bekannten Gelenkanordnungen vermeidet, bei der insbesondere die Klappe und den beweglichen Lüftungsrahmen verwindende Kräfte auch dann minimiert sind, wenn zur Unterstützung des Öffnens sowie zum Dämpfen der Öffnungsbewegung in der Endstellung und beim Schließen wenigstens eine Zugfeder zusätzlich zu dem linearen Antriebselement vorgesehen ist.The present invention has for its object to provide an uncomplicated, compact hinge assembly, which avoids the disadvantages of the above known hinge assemblies, in particular, the flap and the movable ventilation frame twisting forces are minimized even if to assist the opening and to damp the opening movement is provided in the end position and closing at least one tension spring in addition to the linear drive element.

Diese Aufgabe wird für eine Gelenkanordnung mit den in Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmalen gelöst.This object is achieved for a joint assembly with the features specified in claim 1.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung besteht also in einer einzigartigen Integration der mindestens einen Zugfeder in die Gelenkanordnung mit dem linearen Antriebselement, wobei die Gelenkanordnung im wesentlichen den an einem unteren Abschnitt des linearen Antriebselements um eine erste Schwenkachse schwenkbaren Stützhebel sowie einen ebenfalls an dem unteren Abschnitt angelenkten zusätzlichen Umlenkhebel umfasst, und wobei der Stützhebel mit einem unteren Aufsatzabschnitt des Aufsatzes verbunden ist und der Umlenkhebel darüber ebenfalls mit dem Aufsatz verbunden sein kann oder statt dessen mit der beweglichen Klappe.The solution according to the invention thus consists in a unique integration of the at least one tension spring in the hinge assembly with the linear drive element, wherein the hinge assembly substantially the pivotable at a lower portion of the linear drive member about a first pivot axis support lever and also hinged to the lower portion additional lever includes, and wherein the support lever is connected to a lower attachment portion of the attachment and the bell crank over it may also be connected to the attachment or instead with the movable flap.

Im einzelnen zeichnet sich die Gelenkanordnung gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 dadurch aus, dass das zweite Ende der Zugfeder mit einem unteren Abschnitt des linearen Antriebselements verbunden ist, der die erste Schwenkachse einschließt, um die das lineare Antriebselement schwenkbar ist. Dabei steht das erste Ende der Zugfeder an einer Federverbindungsstelle mit dem Aufsatz fest in Verbindung, die weiter von der ersten Drehachse der Klappe entfernt ist als die erste Schwenkachse des linearen Antriebselements.In particular, the hinge assembly according to the characterizing part of claim 1 is characterized in that the second end of the tension spring is connected to a lower portion of the linear drive member which includes the first pivot axis about which the linear drive element is pivotable. In this case, the first end of the tension spring is firmly connected to a spring connection point with the attachment, which is farther away from the first axis of rotation of the flap than the first pivot axis of the linear drive element.

Bei dieser Anordnung der Zugfeder erfolgt die Kraftübertragung der Zugfeder auf die Klappe und den Aufsatz über den gleichen Stützhebel und den gleichen Umlenkhebel, die für das lineare Antriebselement vorgesehen sind. Es entfallen somit zusätzliche Hebel für die Zugfeder. Diese Vereinheitlichung hat sich als funktionell brauchbar bzw. günstig herausgestellt, obwohl die Federkraft nicht in gleicher Richtung an dem Stützhebel und an dem Umlenkhebel anzugreifen braucht wie die von dem linearen Antriebselement hervorgerufene Kraft.In this arrangement, the tension spring is the power transmission of the tension spring on the flap and the essay on the same support lever and the same lever, which are provided for the linear drive element. It thus eliminates additional levers for the tension spring. This standardization has been found to be functionally useful, although the spring force need not be in the same direction on the support lever and on the bell crank as the force induced by the linear drive member.

Da die Federkraft an den gleichen Stellen in die Klappe bzw. deren Rahmen eingeleitet wird, wie die Kraft des linearen Antriebselements, und da die Krafteinleitung für das lineare Antriebselement und die Zugfeder auch an dem Aufsatz die gleiche ist, werden in die Klappe und den zugehörigen Lüftungsrahmen praktisch keine Verwindungskräfte eingebracht.Since the spring force is introduced into the same places in the flap or its frame, as the force of the linear drive element, and since the application of force for the linear drive element and the tension spring is also the same on the essay, are in the flap and the associated Ventilation frame introduced virtually no torsional forces.

Von dieser Verbindung der Zugfeder mit dem linearen Antriebselement ausgehend kann das Öffnungssystem umfassend das lineare Antriebselement und die Zugfeder weiter optimiert werden, indem die vertikale Ebene, in der die Zugfeder liegt, nahe der vertikalen Mittelebene angeordnet wird, in der das Antriebselement liegt. Damit ist das gesamte Öffnungssystem sehr kompakt ausgebildet.From this connection of the tension spring with the linear drive element starting the opening system comprising the linear drive element and the tension spring can be further optimized by the vertical plane in which the tension spring is located near the vertical center plane in which the drive element is located. Thus, the entire opening system is very compact.

Vorteilhaft ist das zweite Ende der Zugfeder an der ersten Schwenkachse des linearen Antriebselements angebracht. Hierbei ist die Belastung eines Gehäuses des Antriebselements durch Kräfte und Momente minimiert.Advantageously, the second end of the tension spring is attached to the first pivot axis of the linear drive element. Here, the load of a housing of the drive element is minimized by forces and moments.

Die erfindungsgemäße Gelenkanordnung kann universell eingesetzt werden, z.B. in Verbindung mit einer Klappe, die kein in einen beweglichen Lüftungsrahmen eingesetztes, somit ebenfalls bewegliches Traversenteil aufweist und die auch in dem ortsfesten Aufsatz bzw. Aufsatzkranz, über dem die Klappe schwenkbar ist, kein unteres, mit dem Aufsatz fest verbundenes Traversenteil umfasst.The hinge assembly according to the invention can be used universally, e.g. in conjunction with a flap which has no inserted into a movable ventilation frame, thus also movable truss part and which also in the fixed essay or essay wreath over which the flap is pivotable, no lower, with the essay firmly connected truss part.

Eine kompakte Einheit zum Einbau in einen Aufsatz bzw. Aufsatzkranz, die auch die Zugfeder umfasst, kann jedoch gemäß Anspruch 3 vorteilhaft unter Verwendung eines ortsfesten Traversenteils hergestellt sein, welches in dem Aufsatz angebracht wird und über dem nach Montage die Klappe um die erste Drehachse gedreht werden kann. Bei dieser Ausbildung der Baugruppe mit dem ortsfesten Traversenteil und dem linearen Antriebselement ist die Zugfeder in dem Öffnungssystem mit den Traversenteilen integriert. Dadurch verringert sich der bauseitige Montageaufwand.A compact unit for installation in an essay or curb, which also includes the tension spring, however, can be advantageously prepared according to claim 3 using a stationary truss part which is mounted in the essay and above which after assembly, the flap is rotated about the first axis of rotation can be. In this embodiment, the assembly with the stationary cross member and the linear drive element, the tension spring is integrated in the opening system with the Traversenteilen. This reduces the on-site assembly work.

Die Einheit ist besonders kompakt, indem das ortsfeste Traversenteil schmaler als der Aufsatz bemessen ist, in dem es montiert wird, wobei die Zugfeder innerhalb des ortsfesten Traversenteils angeordnet ist.The unit is particularly compact in that the stationary cross member is dimensioned narrower than the attachment in which it is mounted, wherein the tension spring is disposed within the stationary cross member.

Mit dem ersten, ortsfesten Traversenteil kann weiterhin gemäß Anspruch 5 ein zweites, bewegliches Traversenteil um die erste Drehachse drehbar verbunden sein, womit der Integrationsgrad weiter erhöht und der bauseitige Montageaufwand minimiert wird. In diesem Fall ist die von der ersten Drehachse entfernte schwenkbare Verbindungsstelle des linearen Antriebselements für die Klappe an dem beweglichen Traversenteil angeordnet, an dem die Klappe angebracht wird. Die Gelenkanordnung nach Anspruch 5 weist die Merkmale auf, dass über dem ortsfesten Traversenteil ein zusammen mit der Klappe bewegliches Traversenteil drehbar ist, an dem die von der ersten Drehachse entfernte schwenkbare Verbindungsstelle des linearen Antriebselements angeordnet ist, dass das erste Ende des Umlenkhebels um die erste Schwenkachse des linearen Antriebselements schwenkbar ist, wobei ein zweites Ende des Umlenkhebels schwenkbar an dem beweglichen Traversenteil im Abstand zu deren erster Drehachse und zu der schwenkbaren Verbindungsstelle des linearen Antriebselements angeordnet ist. Bei dieser Gelenkanordnung kann das einzige lineare Antriebselement die Klappe an dem beweglichen Traversenteil über eine normale Öffnungsstellung 120° hinaus in eine Alarmstellung geschwenkt werden, in der der Öffnungswinkel um 165° betragen kann.Furthermore, according to claim 5, a second, movable truss part can be rotatably connected to the first, stationary truss part about the first axis of rotation, whereby the degree of integration is further increased and the on-site assembly work is minimized. In this case, the pivotable connection point of the linear drive element remote from the first rotation axis is arranged for the flap on the movable cross member to which the flap is attached. The hinge arrangement according to claim 5 has the features that above the stationary truss part a movable together with the flap truss part is rotatable, on which the remote from the first axis of rotation pivotal connection point of the linear drive element is arranged, that the first end of the reversing lever to the first Pivot axis of the linear drive element is pivotable, wherein a second end of the reversing lever is pivotally mounted on the movable truss part at a distance from the first axis of rotation and to the pivotal connection point of the linear drive element. In this joint arrangement, the single linear drive element, the flap on the movable truss part can be pivoted beyond a normal opening position 120 ° out into an alarm position in which the opening angle can be 165 °.

Wie oben erwähnt ist insbesondere bei der voranstehenden Gelenkanordnung das zweite Ende der Zugfeder vorteilhaft an der ersten Schwenkachse des linearen Antriebselements angebracht. Ansonsten wird das zweite Ende der Zugfeder jedenfalls möglichst nahe an der ersten Schwenkachse des linearen Antriebselements angeordnet.As mentioned above, particularly in the case of the above joint arrangement, the second end of the tension spring is advantageously attached to the first pivot axis of the linear drive element. Otherwise, the second end of the tension spring is in any case arranged as close as possible to the first pivot axis of the linear drive element.

Es ist aber auch möglich, die Zugfeder in eine Ausführungsform der Gelenkanordnung zu integrieren, die so ausgebildet ist, dass diese an der Klappe, an der das lineare Antriebselement angreift, keine zusätzlichen Querkräfte einleitet, so dass eine Traverse bzw. ein Traversenunterteil nicht erforderlich ist, womit eine leichte materialsparende Bauweise ermöglicht wird. Diese Ausführungsform ist gemäß Anspruch 6 dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass ein zweites Ende des Umlenkhebels, dessen erstes Ende um eine dritte Schwenkachse an dem linearen Antriebselement schwenkbar ist, an einem ortsfesten Drehpunkt gelagert ist, dergestalt, dass die erste Schwenkachse des linearen Antriebselements an dem Stützhebel sowie die dritte Schwenkachse, um welche der Umlenkhebel an dem linearen Antriebselement schwenkbar ist, bei Betätigung des linearen Antriebselements kreisförmige Bewegungsbahnen beschreiben, die sich kreuzen und eine resultierende Drehung des linearen Antriebselements hervorrufen.But it is also possible to integrate the tension spring in an embodiment of the joint arrangement which is designed so that it does not initiate any additional transverse forces on the flap on which the linear drive element engages, so that a traverse or a truss bottom is not required , which allows a lightweight material-saving design. This embodiment is characterized according to claim 6, characterized in that a second end of the reversing lever, whose first end is pivotable about a third pivot axis on the linear drive element, on a fixed pivot point is mounted, such that the first pivot axis of the linear drive element on the support lever and the third pivot axis about which the lever is pivotable on the linear drive element, upon actuation of the linear drive element describe circular trajectories that intersect and a resulting rotation of the cause linear drive element.

Insbesondere bei der letztgenannten Ausführungsform kann das zweite Ende der Zugfeder zur Kraftübertragung auf den Stützhebel und den Umlenkhebel gemäß Anspruch 7 an dem unteren Abschnitt des linearen Antriebselements angebracht sein, der die erste Schwenkachse an dem Stützhebel und die dritte Schwenkachse an dem Umlenkhebel einschließt.Particularly in the latter embodiment, the second end of the tension spring for transmitting power to the support lever and the bellcrank according to claim 7 may be attached to the lower portion of the linear drive member including the first pivot axis on the support lever and the third pivot axis on the bellcrank.

Eine zuverlässige, konstruktiv einfache Anbringung des zweiten Endes der Zugfeder an dem linearen Antriebselement wird gemäß Anspruch 8 mit einem bolzenförmigen Ansatz erreicht, der von dem linearen Antriebselement seitlich absteht und an dem das zweite Ende der Zugfeder angreift. Der bolzenförmige Ansatz kann in das lineare Antriebselement einschraubbar ausgebildet sein.A reliable, structurally simple attachment of the second end of the tension spring to the linear drive element is achieved according to claim 8 with a bolt-shaped projection which projects laterally from the linear drive element and on which engages the second end of the tension spring. The bolt-shaped projection can be designed to be screwed into the linear drive element.

In dem Falle, in dem das zweite Ende der Zugfeder an der ersten Schwenkachse des linearen Antriebselements angebracht werden soll, erstreckt sich der bolzenförmige Ansatz in Verlängerung der ersten Schwenkachse von dem linearen Antriebselement weg, d.h. der bolzenförmige Ansatz und die erste Schwenkachse sind konzentrisch.In the case where the second end of the tension spring is to be attached to the first pivot axis of the linear drive element, the bolt-shaped projection extends in extension of the first pivot axis away from the linear drive element, i. the bolt-shaped projection and the first pivot axis are concentric.

Um die Funktionssicherheit der Gelenkanordnung zu erhöhen und um auf das lineare Antriebselement keine seitliche Kippkraft auszuüben, die versuchen könnte, das Antriebselement aus der vertikalen Ebene herauszuschwenken, sind gemäß Anspruch 10 bevorzugt zwei Zugfedern beidseitig des linearen Antriebselements symmetrisch zu diesem angeordnet und an diesem angebracht.In order to increase the reliability of the hinge assembly and to exert on the linear drive element no lateral tilting force that might try to swing out the drive element from the vertical plane, are preferably arranged according to claim 10, two tension springs on both sides of the linear drive element symmetrically to this and attached thereto.

In dem Fall, in dem die Gelenkanordnung an einem ortsfesten Traversenteil angebracht ist, welches zwei parallel zueinander und zu der vertikalen Mittelebene des linearen Antriebselements verlaufende Streben umfasst, sind die beiden Zugfedern kompakt zwischen den beiden Streben so angeordnet, dass sie die vertikale Ebene des linearen Antriebselements einschließen.In the case where the hinge assembly is mounted on a fixed truss member comprising two struts parallel to each other and to the vertical median plane of the linear drive member, the two tension springs are arranged compactly between the two struts so as to be the vertical plane of the linear strut Include drive element.

Bei der Ausführungsform der Gelenkanordnung mit einem ortsfesten Traversenteil ist auf diesem besonders vorteilhaft gemäß Anspruch 12 eine Auflage angeordnet, und zwar in geschlossener Stellung der Klappe zwischen dem ersten Ende und dem zweiten Ende der Zugfeder, so dass die Zugfeder in dieser Stellung der Klappe auf der Auflage aufliegt und von dieser zu der ersten Schwenkachse des linearen Antriebselements abgewinkelt ist, die sich in geschlossener Stellung der Klappe unterhalb des zweiten ortsfesten Traversenteils befindet. Damit wird erreicht, dass die Federkraft in einem Winkel an dem linearen Antriebselement angreift, unter dem die Zugfeder in der ersten Öffnungsphase der Klappe das Öffnen besonders wirksam unterstützt. Dies kann insbesondere bei Vereisung der Klappe erforderlich bzw. wünschenswert sein.In the embodiment of the joint assembly with a stationary truss member is arranged on this particularly advantageous according to claim 12, a support, in the closed position of the flap between the first end and the second end of the tension spring, so that the tension spring in this position of the flap on the Pad rests and is angled from this to the first pivot axis of the linear drive element, which is located in the closed position of the flap below the second stationary truss part. This ensures that the spring force acts at an angle to the linear drive element, under which the tension spring in the first opening phase of the flap supports the opening particularly effective. This may be necessary or desirable in particular when the flap is frozen.

Gemäß Anspruch 1 3 kann sich jedenfalls das zweite Ende der Zugfeder geschützt und ästhetisch ansprechend in geschlossener Stellung der Klappe innerhalb des Aufsatzes befinden, der auch das lineare Antriebselement, den Stützhebel und den Umlenkhebel einschließt.In any case, according to claim 1 3, the second end of the tension spring can be protected and aesthetically pleasing in the closed position of the flap within the essay, which also includes the linear drive element, the support lever and the lever.

Die Gelenkanordnung gemäß den Figuren 1 - 4 bzw. 5 dient zur Betätigung einer Kuppel 1, die zusammen mit einem beweglichen Traversenteil 2 um eine erste Drehachse (P0) drehbar ist. Das bewegliche Traversenteil 2 ist, wie Figur 3 zeigt, zentral in einem beweglichen Lüfterrahmen 4 angebracht, der seinerseits die Kuppel 1 trägt.The joint arrangement according to FIGS. 1-4 or 5 serves to actuate a dome 1, which together with a movable truss part 2 is rotatable about a first axis of rotation (P 0 ). The movable truss part 2 is, as Figure 3 shows, mounted centrally in a movable fan frame 4, which in turn carries the dome 1.

In der in den Figuren 1 und 3 dargestellten geschlossenen Stellung des Lüfterrahmens 3 liegt das bewegliche Traversenteil auf einem unteren, ortsfesten Traversenteil 4, welches zwei fest miteinander verbundene Streben 4', 4" umfasst, die symmetrisch zu der nicht dargestellten vertikalen Mittelebene angeordnet sind. Von der in den Figuren 1 - 4 linken Seite des ortsfesten Traversenteils 4 erstreckt sich eine Tragkonsole 5 senkrecht nach unten. Das bewegliche Traversenteil hat in diesem Bereich eine weniger hohe Konsole, die in den Figuren 1 und 4 mit 6 bezeichnet ist.In the closed position of the fan frame 3 shown in Figures 1 and 3, the movable truss part is located on a lower, fixed truss part 4, which comprises two fixedly connected struts 4 ', 4 ", which are arranged symmetrically to the vertical center plane, not shown. A support bracket 5 extends vertically downwards from the left-hand side of the stationary truss part 4 in Figures 1 to 4. The movable truss part has a less high bracket in this area, which is designated 6 in Figures 1 and 4.

Zum Öffnen und Schließen der Kuppel dient nur ein lineares Antriebselement 7, welches eine Stange 8 betätigt. Das lineare Antriebselement kann als elektrischer Motor oder als pneumatischer oder hydraulischer Zylinder realisiert sein. Mit dem einzigen linearen Antriebselement ist in der Ausführungsform gemäß den Figuren 1 - 5 die Kuppel in einem sehr weiten Drehbereich drehbar, der sich über etwa 165° erstrecken kann.To open and close the dome is only a linear drive element 7, which actuates a rod 8. The linear drive element can be realized as an electric motor or as a pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder. With the single linear drive element, in the embodiment according to FIGS. 1-5, the dome can be rotated in a very wide range of rotation, which can extend over approximately 165 °.

Zum Drehen der Kuppel 1 mit dem Lüfterrahmen 3 über das obere bewegliche Traversenteil 2 ist die Stange 8 auf der der ersten Drehachse P0 entgegengesetzten Seite an dem beweglichen Traversenteil 2 angelenkt, und zwar an der schwenkbaren Verbindungsstelle P1.To rotate the dome 1 with the fan frame 3 via the upper movable truss part 2, the rod 8 is hinged on the first axis of rotation P 0 opposite side to the movable truss part 2, namely at the pivotal connection point P 1st

Ein unterer Abschnitt des linearen Antriebselements 7 ist an einer ersten Schwenkachse P2 gelagert, die nicht ortsfest ist, vgl. Figuren 1 und 2, und an der ein Ende eines Stützhebels 9 angreift, dessen entgegengesetztes Ende an einer zweiten Schwenkachse P3 unten in der Tragkonsole 5 gelagert ist.A lower portion of the linear drive element 7 is mounted on a first pivot axis P 2 , which is not stationary, see. Figures 1 and 2, and on which engages one end of a support lever 9, whose opposite end is mounted on a second pivot axis P 3 below in the support bracket 5.

Ein zusätzlicher Umlenkhebel 11 ist einerseits ebenfalls mit der ersten Schwenkachse P2 an dem linearen Antriebselement verbunden und andererseits in einer Drehachse P4 gelagert, die an der Konsole 6 des oberen beweglichen Traversenteils 2 nahe der ersten Drehachse P0 angeordnet ist. Die Drehachse P4 befindet sich jedenfalls näher zur ersten Drehachse P0 als die Mitte des Traversenoberteils.An additional reversing lever 11 is on the one hand also connected to the first pivot axis P 2 on the linear drive element and on the other hand mounted in a rotation axis P 4 , which is arranged on the bracket 6 of the upper movable truss part 2 near the first axis of rotation P 0 . The axis of rotation P 4 is in any case closer to the first axis of rotation P 0 than the center of the upper part of the cross member.

Die erste Drehachse P0, die erste und die zweite Schwenkachse P2, P3 und die Drehachse P4 bilden ein Viergelenk bzw. zusammen mit der ersten schwenkbaren Verbindungsstelle P1 ein Fünfgelenk, welches den genannten großen Öffnungswinkel in eine Alarmstellung der Kuppel mit dem einzigen aktiven linearen Antriebselement 7 ermöglicht.The first axis of rotation P 0 , the first and second pivot axis P 2 , P 3 and the axis of rotation P 4 form a four-bar or together with the first pivotal joint P 1 a five-bar joint, which said large opening angle in an alarm position of the dome with the single active linear drive element 7 allows.

Eine Verriegelungseinrichtung 12 am Ende der Stange 8, bei deren schwenkbarer Verbindungsstelle P1 kann durch eine Anfangsbewegung des linearen Antriebselements entriegelt werden, um ein Hochschwenken des oberen beweglichen Traversenteils 2 mit der Kuppel 1 zu gestatten, sie hat jedoch keinen weiteren Einfluss auf die Kuppelbewegung.A locking device 12 at the end of the rod 8, at the pivotal connection point P 1 can be unlocked by an initial movement of the linear drive member to a pivoting of the upper movable truss part 2 with the dome 1 to allow, but it has no further influence on the dome motion.

Zum Schwenken des beweglichen Traversenteils 2 bzw. der Kuppel 1 stützt sich das lineare Antriebselement auf den Stützhebel 10 an der ersten Schwenkachse P2 ab, der wegen des Umlenkhebels 11 nicht nach unten im Uhrzeigersinn ausweichen kann. Deswegen werden mit der ersten Schwenkachse P2 die mit ihr verbundenen Elemente entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn geschwenkt, insbesondere in die in Figur 2 ersichtliche weit geöffnete Stellung.For pivoting the movable truss part 2 and the dome 1, the linear drive element is based on the support lever 10 on the first pivot axis P 2 , which can not dodge down clockwise because of the reversing lever 11. Therefore, with the first pivot axis P 2, the elements connected to it are pivoted in the counterclockwise direction, in particular in the wide open position shown in FIG.

Um insbesondere das anfängliche Öffnen bei großer Belastung des linearen Antriebselements, z.B. durch Schneelast oder festgefrorener Kuppel, zu erleichtern und andererseits die Kuppel in der weit geöffneten Stellung nicht durch deren Gewicht beschleunigt in deren Endstellung schlagen zu lassen, sind in der beschriebenen Gelenkanordnung zwei Zugfedern 13, 14 integriert, die in Ebenen parallel zu der vertikalen Mittelebene und zwischen dem oberen beweglichen Traversenteil 2 und den Streben 4', 4" des unteren ortsfesten Traversenteils 4 angeordnet sind, siehe insbesondere Figuren 3 und 4.In particular, the initial opening under heavy load of the linear drive element, e.g. by snow load or frozen dome to facilitate and on the other hand, the dome in the wide open position not accelerated by the weight of their end position to beat, in the described hinge assembly two tension springs 13, 14 integrated in planes parallel to the vertical center plane and between the upper movable truss part 2 and the struts 4 ', 4 "of the lower stationary truss part 4 are arranged, see in particular Figures 3 and 4.

Jeweils ein erstes Ende jeder der Zugfedern 13, 14 ist an einer Federanbringungsstelle 16, 17, die durch ein Profilstück realisiert sein kann, mit je einer der Streben 4', 4" des ortsfesten Traversenteils 4 verbunden, siehe Figuren 1, 2 und 3. Die Federanbringungsstelle ist von der ersten Drehachse P0 weiter entfernt als die erste Schwenkachse P2 an dem linearen Antriebselement, was insbesondere in geschlossener Stellung der Kuppel aus Figur 1 ersichtlich ist.In each case a first end of each of the tension springs 13, 14 is connected to a spring attachment point 16, 17, which may be realized by a profile piece, each with one of the struts 4 ', 4 "of the stationary truss part 4, see Figures 1, 2 and 3. The spring attachment point is farther from the first axis of rotation P 0 than the first pivot axis P 2 on the linear drive element, which can be seen in particular in the closed position of the dome of FIG.

Das jeweils zweite Ende der Zugfeder 13 bzw. 14 ist an der ersten Schwenkachse P2 des linearen Antriebselements angebracht, die sich in geschlossener Stellung der Klappe zwischen der Federanbringungsstelle 16 bzw. 17 und der ersten Drehachse Po, auch der zweiten Schwenkachse P3 und der Drehachse P4, befindet.The respective second end of the tension spring 13 and 14 is attached to the first pivot axis P 2 of the linear drive element, which in the closed position of the flap between the spring mounting point 16 and 17 and the first axis of rotation Po, and the second pivot axis P 3 and the P 4 axis of rotation is located.

Um den Angriffswinkel des zweiten Endes jeder der Zugfedern 13, 14 von oben an dem linearen Antriebselement 7 in geschlossener Stellung der Kuppel zu verbessern, d.h. steiler zu gestalten, ist auf den Streben 4', 4" des ortsfesten Traversenteils 4 je eine Auflage 18, 19 aus einem Profilstück so angebracht, dass eine der Zugfedern, etwa in ihrer Mitte, auf der Auflage bei geschlossener Stellung der Kuppel liegt, wodurch jede Feder, ausgehend von ihrem annähernd waagerechten Abschnitt an der Federanbringungsstelle 16 bzw. 17 ab der Auflage 18 bzw. 19 nach unten zu dem zweiten Federende abgewinkelt ist, welches mit der ersten Schwenkachse P2 in Verbindung steht. Dadurch greift das zweite Ende der Zugfeder 13 bzw. 14 so steil an den unteren Abschnitt 9 des linearen Antriebselements an, dass die Feder wirkungsvoll versucht, das lineare Antriebselement anzuheben bzw. dieses anhebt, wenn die Verriegelungseinrichtung 12 zu Beginn des Hochfahrens der Klappe gelöst ist. In dieser Weise unterstützen die Federn 13, 14 das Öffnen der Kuppel, bis die erste Schwenkachse P2 an dem linearen Antriebselement etwa die Stellung P'2 in Figur 1 erreicht hat, also in der besonders kritischen Anfangsphase der Öffnung.In order to improve the angle of attack of the second end of each of the tension springs 13, 14 from above on the linear drive element 7 in the closed position of the dome, ie to make it steeper, is on the struts 4 ', 4 "of the stationary truss part 4 depending on a support 18, 19 mounted from a profile piece so that one of the tension springs, approximately in their middle, on the support in the closed position of the dome, whereby each spring, starting from its approximately horizontal portion at the spring mounting point 16 and 17 from the support 18 and 19 is angled downward to the second spring end, which is in communication with the first pivot axis P 2. As a result, the second end of the tension spring 13 or 14 so sharply engages the lower portion 9 of the linear drive element that the spring is effectively trying lifting or lifting the linear drive member when the latch 12 is released at the start of the flap lift-up Use the springs 13, 14 opening the dome until the first pivot axis P 2 on the linear drive element has reached about the position P ' 2 in Figure 1, ie in the particularly critical initial phase of the opening.

Wenn hingegen die Kuppel in die Nähe der weit geöffneten Endstellung bewegt ist, siehe Figur 2, versuchen die Zugfedern 13, 14 das lineare Antriebselement 7 zurückzuziehen, wobei sich die Zugfedern 13, 14 annähernd in Verlängerung des linearen Antriebselements 7 erstrecken, und dämpfen die Öffnungsbewegung der Kuppel 1 wirksam. In dem letztgenannten Bereich wird dann auch die Schließbewegung der Kuppel durch die Zugfedern 13, 14 unterstützt, wenn die Stange 8 durch das lineare Antriebselement 7 eingezogen wird.In contrast, when the dome is moved in the vicinity of the wide open end position, see Figure 2, the tension springs 13, 14 try to retract the linear drive member 7, wherein the tension springs 13, 14 extend approximately in extension of the linear drive member 7, and damp the opening movement the dome 1 effective. In the latter Area is then also the closing movement of the dome supported by the tension springs 13, 14 when the rod 8 is retracted by the linear drive element 7.

Insbesondere aus Figur 5 kann ersehen werden, wie die auf den Streben 4', 4" angebrachten Auflagen 18, 19, von den Streben seitlich in deren Zwischenraum vorstehen und ausgebildet sind, damit die in dem Zwischenraum angeordneten Zugfedern 13, 14, siehe Figur 3, auf den Auflagen 18, 19 sicher aufliegen können.It can be seen in particular from FIG. 5 how the supports 18, 19 mounted on the struts 4 ', 4 "protrude laterally from the struts into their intermediate space and are designed so that the tension springs 13, 14 arranged in the intermediate space, see FIG , on the pads 18, 19 can rest safely.

In Figur 4 ist die Anbringung des zweiten Endes jeder der Federn 13, 14 jeweils an einem der bolzenförmigen Ansätze 20, 21 dargestellt, die koaxial zu der ersten Schwenkachse P2 angeordnet sind bzw. äußeren Abschnitte dieser Schwenkachse bilden können. Die bolzenförmigen Ansätze 20, 21 stehen quer von dem linearen Antriebselement 7 ab. Weiterhin ist aus Figur 4 die Anordnung des Stützhebels 10 und des Umlenkhebels 11, die als U-Profile ausgeführt sind, symmetrisch zu der nicht dargestellten vertikalen Mittelebene ersichtlich.In Figure 4, the attachment of the second end of each of the springs 13, 14 is shown in each case on one of the bolt-shaped projections 20, 21, which are arranged coaxially to the first pivot axis P 2 and can form outer portions of this pivot axis. The bolt-shaped projections 20, 21 protrude transversely from the linear drive element 7. Furthermore, from Figure 4, the arrangement of the support lever 10 and the reversing lever 11, which are designed as U-profiles, symmetrically to the vertical center plane, not shown, can be seen.

Ein besonderer Vorteil der Gelenkanordnung besteht darin, dass die beiden Zugfedern 13, 14 an der gleichen ersten Schwenkachse P2 an dem linearen Antriebselement 7 angreifen wie der Stützhebel 10 und der Umlenkhebel 11, so dass die Zugkräfte der beiden Zugfedern 13, 14 ohne zusätzliche Hebel- oder Getriebeelemente mit großer Wirkung in die Gelenkanordnung eingeleitet werden.A particular advantage of the joint arrangement is that the two tension springs 13, 14 act on the same first pivot axis P 2 on the linear drive element 7 as the support lever 10 and the lever 11, so that the tensile forces of the two tension springs 13, 14 without additional levers - Or transmission elements are introduced with great effect in the joint assembly.

Aus den Figuren 3 und 4 ergeben sich weiterhin Einzelheiten der kompakten Anordnung der beiden Zugfedern 13, 14, die in ein unteres ortsfestes Traversenteil üblicher Abmessungen integriert sein können und sich im wesentlichen innerhalb der mit dem linearen Antriebselement, dem Stützhebel und dem Umlenkhebel sowie den Traversenteilen gebildeten Öffnungsbeschlag befinden.From Figures 3 and 4 further details of the compact arrangement of the two tension springs 13, 14, which can be integrated into a lower stationary truss part of conventional dimensions and substantially located within the opening fitting formed with the linear drive element, the support lever and the lever and the crosspiece parts.

Der in den Figuren 1 - 4 erkennbare Aufsatz 1 5 dient zur Integration der Gelenkanordnung mit der Kuppel in ein Gebäude. Er hat jedoch zumindest dann keine weitere wesentliche Funktion für die Gelenkanordnung, wenn diese das untere ortsfeste Traversenteil 4 umfasst. Ansonsten kann in anderen Ausführungsformen der Aufsatz, wenn er genügend steif ausgebildet ist, die Funktion des unteren ortsfesten Traversenteils übernehmen.The recognizable in Figures 1 - 4 attachment 1 5 is used to integrate the hinge assembly with the dome in a building. However, at least it has no further essential function for the joint arrangement, if this comprises the lower stationary truss part 4. Otherwise, in other embodiments, the article, if it is sufficiently stiff, take over the function of the lower stationary truss part.

Nachfolgend wird als weiterem Beispiel für die universelle Anwendbarkeit der besonderen Federanordnung in Gelenkanordnungen von RWA-Anlagen die zweite Ausführungsform gemäß den Figuren 6 und 7 besprochen.The second embodiment according to FIGS. 6 and 7 will be discussed below as a further example of the universal applicability of the special spring arrangement in joint arrangements of RWA systems.

Die Bezeichnung der Achsen der zweiten Ausführungsform sind die gleichen wie bei der ersten Ausführungsform.The names of the axles of the second embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment.

Die zweite Ausführungsform unterscheidet sich von der ersten weiter oben besprochenen ersten Ausführungsform u.a. dadurch, dass in der zweiten Ausführungsform kein unteres ortsfestes Traversenteil und kein oberes bewegliches Traversenteil vorgesehen sind. Bei der zweiten Ausführungsform werden an einer Klappe 22, an der ein lineares Antriebselement 23 angreift, keine zusätzlichen Querkräfte eingeleitet. Es werden lediglich Kräfte in die Klappe 22 an deren erster Drehachse P0 sowie an der schwenkbaren Verbindungsstelle P1 des linearen Antriebselements 23 an der Klappe 22 eingeleitet. Dies gilt auch für die aus der Zugkraft der Zugfeder 24 abgeleiteten Kraftkomponenten.The second embodiment differs from the first embodiment discussed above, inter alia, in that in the second embodiment, no lower stationary truss member and no upper movable truss member are provided. In the second embodiment, no additional transverse forces are introduced to a flap 22 on which a linear drive element 23 acts. Only forces are introduced into the flap 22 at the first axis of rotation P 0 and at the pivotable connection point P 1 of the linear drive element 23 on the flap 22. This also applies to the derived from the tensile force of the tension spring 24 force components.

Im übrigen ist auch in der zweiten Ausführungsform an dem entgegengesetzten Ende zu der ersten Drehachse P0 der Klappe 22 ein Verriegelungselement 25 vorgesehen, an dem eine Stange 26 des linearen Antriebselements 23 angreift, welches hier als Doppelhubzylinder ausgebildet ist. Das Ende der Stange 26 ist an der schwenkbaren Verbindungsstelle P1 angeordnet. Das Verriegelungselement wirkt mit einer Konsole zusammen, die innen an einem Aufsatz 28 fest angebracht ist, so dass bei Betätigung der Stange 26 eine Entriegelung erfolgt.Incidentally, a locking element 25 is also provided in the second embodiment at the opposite end to the first axis of rotation P 0 of the flap 22, to which a rod 26 of the linear drive element 23 engages, which is designed here as Doppelhubzylinder. The end of the rod 26 is arranged at the pivotable connection point P 1 . The locking element cooperates with a console, which is fixedly mounted inside an attachment 28, so that upon actuation of the rod 26 is unlocked.

An der zu der schwenkbaren Verbindungsstelle P1 gegenüberliegenden Seite in der Nähe der ersten Drehachse P0 ist innen an dem Aufsatz eine weitere Konsole 29 befestigt, die annähernd vertikal nach unten abstehen kann. Die weitere Konsole 29 dient hier nicht nur zur Lagerung eines an einer ersten Schwenkachse P2 des linearen Antriebselements schwenkbar angebrachten Stützhebels 30, sondern auch eines zusätzlichen Umlenkhebels 31 an einer ortsfesten Drehachse P4'. Die ortsfeste Drehachse P4' des Umlenkhebels befindet sich näher an der ortsfesten ersten Drehachse P0 der Klappe als die zweite ortsfeste Schwenkachse P3 des Stützhebels. Die zweite Schwenkachse P3 und die ortsfeste Drehachse P4' können längs einer lotrechten Linie angeordnet sein. Der Umlenkhebel 31 ist um eine dritte bewegliche Schwenkachse P5 an dem linearen Antriebselement 23 angelenkt, und zwar in dessen unterem Abschnitt 32, der die dritte Schwenkachse P5 und die erste Schwenkachse P2 einschließt. Die erste Schwenkachse P2 und die dritte Schwenkachse P5 liegen bevorzugt in einer Mittelachse 23a des linearen Antriebselements 23.At the opposite side to the pivotable connection point P 1 in the vicinity of the first axis of rotation P 0 , a further bracket 29 is fastened to the inside of the attachment and can protrude approximately vertically downwards. The additional bracket 29 serves not only for supporting a support lever 30 pivotally mounted on a first pivot axis P 2 of the linear drive element but also for an additional reversing lever 31 on a stationary rotation axis P 4 '. The stationary axis of rotation P 4 'of the reversing lever is closer to the stationary first axis of rotation P 0 of the flap than the second stationary pivot axis P 3 of the support lever. The second pivot axis P 3 and the fixed axis of rotation P 4 'may be arranged along a vertical line. The reversing lever 31 is articulated about a third movable pivot axis P 5 on the linear drive element 23, in its lower portion 32, which includes the third pivot axis P 5 and the first pivot axis P 2 . The first pivot axis P 2 and the third pivot axis P 5 are preferably located in a central axis 23a of the linear drive element 23.

Die Zugfeder 24, deren erstes Ende an einer ersten Federanbringungsstelle 33 an der Konsole 27 angebracht ist, die als Verriegelungskonsole angesehen werden kann, greift an einer zweiten Federanbringungsstelle an dem unteren Abschnitt 32 des linearen Antriebselements 33 an, und zwar zwischen der ersten Schwenkachse P2 des linearen Antriebselements und der dritten Schwenkachse P5 des linearen Antriebselements. Die Feder verläuft somit bei geschlossener Klappe, wie in Figur 6 dargestellt, unterhalb des linearen Antriebselements 23.The tension spring 24, the first end of which is attached to a first spring attachment point 33 on the bracket 27, which can be considered as a locking console, engages a second spring attachment point on the lower portion 32 of the linear drive member 33, between the first pivot axis P 2 of the linear drive member and the third pivot axis P 5 of the linear drive element. The spring thus runs with the flap closed, as shown in FIG. 6, below the linear drive element 23.

Bei Betätigung des linearen Antriebselements 23 entriegelt das Verriegelungselement 25 und die Klappe 22 wird, unterstützt durch die Zugfeder 24, mit großer Kraft geöffnet. Reaktionskräfte der Feder und des linearen Antriebselements 23 werden dabei über den Stützhebel 30 und den Umlenkhebel 31 auf die Konsole 29 an dem Aufsatz 28 übertragen.Upon actuation of the linear drive member 23 unlocks the locking member 25 and the flap 22 is supported by the tension spring 24, opened with great force. Reaction forces of the spring and the linear drive element 23 are transmitted via the support lever 30 and the lever 31 on the bracket 29 on the attachment 28.

Nähert sich die Klappe 22 der in Figur 7 dargestellten weit geöffneten Endstellung, so wird die Bewegung der Klappe 22 durch die Zugfeder 24 abgebremst. In dieser Stellung übt die Zugfeder eine das Schließen der Klappe unterstützende Kraft auf diese auf.When the flap 22 approaches the wide open end position shown in FIG. 7, the movement of the flap 22 is slowed down by the tension spring 24. In this position, the tension spring exerts on the closing of the flap supporting force on this.

Die zweite Ausführungsform gemäß den Figuren 6 und 7 zeichnet sich durch unkomplizierten Aufbau einschließlich der Zugfeder aus.The second embodiment according to Figures 6 and 7 is characterized by straightforward structure including the tension spring.
