Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Kombinationsantrieb für eine Sonnenschutzblende, insbesondere Markise. Dabei handelt es sich allgemein um eine an einem Objekt befestigte Gestellkonstruktion mit Bespannung, die unter anderem als Sonnen-, Wärme-, Blend- und Objektschutz dient. Sie kann auch, je nach Art und Ausrüstung als Sicht- und Regenschutz dienen. Die Erfindung bezieht sich insbesondere auf eine so genannte Rollmarkise, bei welcher das Tuch auf eine Tuchwelle ein- und abgerollt wird. Meist handelt es sich dabei um eine so genannte Gelenkarmmarkise, bei der das Markisentuch von zwei oder mehr Armen von der Tuchwelle weggedrückt wird.The invention relates to a combination drive for a sun visor, in particular awning. This is generally attached to an object frame construction with fabric, which serves as sun, heat, glare and property protection, among other things. It can also serve as a visual and rain cover, depending on the type and equipment. The invention relates in particular to a so-called roll awning, in which the cloth is rolled on and unrolled on a cloth shaft. Usually this is a so-called articulated arm awning, in which the awning fabric is pushed away from the fabric shaft by two or more arms.

Kombinationsantriebe im Sinne der Erfindung sind solche Antriebe für eine Sonnenschutzblende (im Folgenden auch als Blende bezeichnet), insbesondere Markise, in die sowohl ein Kurbelantrieb zum händischen Ein- und Ausziehen der Blende bzw. Markise als auch ein elektrischer Motorantrieb mit gleicher Wirkung integriert ist. Bekannte Antriebe dieser Gattung werden nur auf einer Seite der Blende bzw. Markise angebracht und sind drehfest mit einem Achszapfen der Blende bzw. Markise verbunden, um eine Drehung der Tuchwelle zu bewirken.Combination drives in the context of the invention are such drives for a sun visor (hereinafter also referred to as aperture), in particular awning, in which both a crank drive for manual insertion and removal of the aperture or awning and an electric motor drive with the same effect is integrated. Known drives of this genus are mounted only on one side of the panel or awning and are rotatably connected to a journal of the aperture or awning to effect rotation of the canvas shaft.

Aus der EP 0 254 757 B1 ist ein derartiger Kombinationsantrieb bekannt, der mittels einer Zapfenaufnahme auf den Wellenzapfen einer Blende bzw. Markise aufgesetzt wird. Wahlweise kann die Blende bzw. Markise durch einen Kurbelantrieb oder einen elektromotorischen Antrieb aufgrund eines Planetengetriebes betätigt werden, wobei sich aufgrund der dadurch bewirkten Drehung der Tuchwelle je nach Aufwickelrichtung bzw. Drehrichtung der Tuchwelle ein Auf- bzw. Abwickeln des Tuches ergibt. Bei der gezeigten Ausführungsform wird die Drehung des elektromotorischen Antriebs über ein Planetengetriebe auf die Tuchwelle übertragen. Der händische Kurbelantrieb, der in Eingriff mit dem Planetenradträger steht bewirkt eine Drehung des Planetenradträgers und ebenfalls eine Drehung der Tuchwelle.From the EP 0 254 757 B1 Such a combination drive is known, which is placed by means of a pin receptacle on the shaft journal of a diaphragm or awning. Optionally, the aperture or awning by a crank drive or an electric motor drive due to a planetary gear be actuated, resulting in a winding or unwinding of the cloth due to the rotation of the cloth shaft caused thereby depending on the winding direction or direction of rotation of the cloth shaft. In the embodiment shown, the rotation of the electromotive drive is transmitted via a planetary gear to the cloth shaft. The manual crank drive, which is in engagement with the planet carrier causes a rotation of the planet carrier and also a rotation of the roller tube.

Die zuvor beschriebene Ausführungsform weist den Nachteil auf, dass das Planetengetriebe unmittelbar benachbart zum Wellenzapfen der Blende bzw. Markise und ohne eine zusätzliche Lagerung zwischen Zapfenaufnahme und Wellenzapfen angeordnet ist. Dies weist mehrere Nachteile auf: Dadurch, dass das Planetengetriebe motorseitig nur einseitig gelagert ist, kann es zu hohen Belastungen und Verschleiß des Planetengetriebes kommen, insbesondere wenn der Blenden- bzw. Markisen-seitige Tuchwellenzapfen schlecht gelagert oder vergleichsweise lang ist. Dadurch kann der Kombinationsantrieb funktionsunfähig werden. Des Weiteren hat sich die Blenden- bzw. Markisen-nahe Anordnung des Planetengetriebes dahingehend als nachteilig erwiesen, dass aufgrund des vergleichsweise großen Bauvolumens des Planetengetriebes eine Anbringung des Antriebs an beliebige Blenden bzw. Markisen mit unterschiedlichen Gestaltungen im Weilenzapfenbereich nur schwer gelingt und zumeist erhebliche konstruktive Veränderungen nach sich zieht. Darüber hinaus weist diese Anordnung im Übergangsbereich zwischen Blende bzw. Markise und Kombinationsantrieb den Nachteil auf, dass das im Vergleich empfindliche Planetengetriebe in diesem Bereich nur schlecht vor äußeren Einwirkungen, Verschmutzung und Feuchtigkeit geschützt ist. Dies beruht darauf, dass es sich bei dem Kombinationsantrieb um eine zumeist optionale Ausstattungsvariante handelt und somit der Kombinationsantrieb nicht in das Gehäuse der Blende bzw. Markise integriert ist, sondem ein eigenes Gehäuse aufweist. Durch die Anordnung des Planetengetriebes im Übergangsbereich befindet sich diese ebenfalls im Übergangsbereich der beiden Gehäuse, was aus Gründen der nur schwierig möglichen Abdichtung in diesem Bereich problematisch ist.The embodiment described above has the disadvantage that the planetary gear is arranged directly adjacent to the shaft journal of the diaphragm or awning and without additional support between the pin receiving and the shaft journal. This has several disadvantages: The fact that the planetary gear motor side is mounted only on one side, it can lead to high loads and wear of the planetary gear, especially if the diaphragm or awning-side cloth shaft journal is poorly stored or comparatively long. As a result, the combination drive can become inoperative. Furthermore, the diaphragm or awning-near arrangement of the planetary gear has proved to be disadvantageous in that due to the comparatively large volume of the planetary gear attachment of the drive to any panels or awnings with different designs in Weilenzapfenbereich difficult and usually considerable constructive Changes. In addition, this arrangement has the disadvantage in the transition region between aperture or awning and combination drive that the comparatively sensitive planetary gear in this area is poorly protected from external influences, pollution and moisture. This is based on the fact that the combination drive is a mostly optional equipment variant and thus the combination drive is not integrated in the housing of the diaphragm or awning, but has its own housing. The arrangement of the planetary gear in the transition region, this is also in the transition region of the two housings, which is problematic for the sake of difficult possible sealing in this area.

Vor dem Hintergrund der zuvor beschriebenen Nachteile ist es daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen zuverlässigeren und haltbareren Kombinationsantrieb für eine Sonnenschutzblende, insbesondere Markise, bereitzustellen.Against the background of the disadvantages described above, it is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a more reliable and durable combination drive for a sun visor, in particular awning.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch den in Anspruch 1 wiedergegebenen Kombinationsantrieb gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This object is achieved by the reproduced in claim 1 combination drive. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kombinationsantrieb für eine Sonnenschutzblende bzw. Markise mit einem Wellenzapfen zum Ein- und Ausfahren derselben. Bevorzugt handelt es sich dabei um eine Rollmarkise mit einer Tuchwelle, wobei die durch den jeweiligen Antrieb bewirkte Drehung der Tuchwelle je nach Aufwickelrichtung bzw. Drehrichtung der Tuchwelle ein Auf- bzw. Abwickeln des Tuches der Markise hervorruft.The invention relates to a combination drive for a sun visor or awning with a shaft journal for extending and retracting the same. It is preferably a roller awning with a roller tube, wherein the rotation of the roller tube caused by the respective drive, depending on the winding direction or direction of rotation of the roller causes a winding up or unwinding of the cloth of the awning.

Der Kombinationsantrieb umfasst einen elektromotorischen Antrieb und einen händischen Kurbelantrieb, die alternativ zu betätigen sind und dabei die Drehung einer Zapfenaufnahme zu bewirken, die eine drehfesten Verbindung mit einem Wellenzapfen, der an der Blende bzw. Markise vorgesehen ist, ermöglicht. Beispielsweise handelt es sich um einen Vierkantende einer Tuchwelle, die von einer komplementären Ausnehmung der Zapfenaufnahme drehfest aufgenommen wird. Ferner umfasst der Antrieb ein Planetengetriebe mit Sonnenrad, mehreren Planetenrädern, einem Planetenradträger zur drehbeweglichen Lagerung der Planetenräder und einem Hohlrad. Dabei stehen der Kurbelantrieb mit dem Planetenradträger in Eingriff und der elektromotorische Antrieb mit dem Sonnenrad in Eingriff. Planetengetriebe, elektromotorischer Antrieb und Kurbelantrieb wirken derart zusammenwirken, dass das Sonnenrad bei Bedarf vom elektromotorischen Antrieb angetrieben wird und dessen Drehung über das Hohlrad, das mit der Zapfenaufnahme verbunden ist, auf den Blenden- bzw. Markisen-seitigen Wellenzapfen übertragen wird und dabei die Drehung des Planetenradträgers durch den Kurbelantrieb blockiert wird.The combination drive comprises an electric motor drive and a manual crank drive, which are to be actuated alternatively, thereby causing the rotation of a pin receiving, which allows a rotationally fixed connection with a shaft journal, which is provided on the aperture or awning. For example, it is a square end of a roller tube, which is rotatably received by a complementary recess of the pin receiving. Furthermore, the drive comprises a planetary gear with a sun gear, a plurality of planetary gears, a planet carrier for rotatably supporting the planet gears and a ring gear. In this case, the crank drive with the planet carrier engaged and the electric motor drive with the sun gear in engagement. Planetary gear, electric motor drive and crank drive act in such a way that the sun gear is driven by the electric motor drive if necessary and its rotation is transmitted via the ring gear, which is connected to the pin receiving on the aperture or awning-side shaft journal and thereby the rotation of the planet carrier is blocked by the crank drive.

Sie wirken ferner derart zusammen, dass der Planetenradträger bei Bedarf vom Kurbelantrieb angetrieben wird, wobei dessen Drehung auf das Hohlrad, das mit der Zapfenaufnahme verbunden ist, auf den Blenden- bzw. Markisen-seitigen Wellenzapfen übertragen wird und dabei die Drehung des Sonnenrads durch den elektromotorischen Antrieb blockiert wird. Ein derartiger funktioneller Zusammenhang der Komponenten ist prinzipiell aus der EP 0 254 757 B1 bekannt, deren Offenbarungsgehalt hiermit diesbezüglich umfasst ist.They also cooperate in such a way that the planet carrier is driven by the crank drive when required, wherein its rotation is transmitted to the ring gear, which is connected to the pin receptacle on the awning-side shaft journal and thereby the rotation of the sun gear through the electric motor drive is blocked. Such a functional relationship of the components is in principle from the EP 0 254 757 B1 the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.

Die Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass der Kombinationsantrieb ein Lager aufweist, das sich auf der der Zapfenaufnahme zugewandten Seite des Planetengetriebes befindet. Beispielsweise handelt es sich um ein Gleit-, Wälz- oder Kugellager. Dadurch wird das Planetengetriebe auch auf der der Blende bzw. Markise zugewandten Seite des Planatengetriebes an einem Träger des Kombinationsantriebs abgestützt, der beispielsweise zur Halterung sämtlicher Komponenten des Kombinationsantriebs dient. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass die Belastungen des Kombinationsantriebs verringert werden und Verschleiß insbesondere des Planetengetriebes aufgrund der verbesserten Lagerung und Führung verbessert wird. Dies gilt umso mehr, wenn der Wellenzapfen der Markise bzw. Blende schlecht gelagert ist oder vergleichsweise lang ist. Letzteres kann insbesondere dann der Fall sein, wenn eine Blende bzw. Markise, die für einen händischen Kurbelantrieb ausgelegt ist, mit einem elektromotorischen Antrieb nachgerüstet werden soll. Derartige Blenden bzw. Markisen sind nicht in der Lage, die mit einem Elektromotor verbundenen hohen Drehmomente aufnehmen zu können, so dass diese Blenden- bzw. Markisen-nahe zusätzliche Lagerung für eine zusätzliche Stabilisierung sorgt und Verschleiß verringert. Dadurch kann der Kombinationsantrieb länger funktionsfähig bleiben und Wartungsintervalle verlängert werden. Ferner sorgt die Lagerung dafür, dass das Planetengetriebe von der Markise abgerückt angeordnet ist, so dass das Bauvolumen des Kombinationsantriebs im Übergangsbereich zwischen Blende bzw. Markise und Antrieb verringert ist, was letztlich die Nachrüstung beliebiger Blende bzw. Markisen mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Kombinationsantrieb erleichtert. Dadurch kann der erfindungsgemäße Kombinationsantrieb universell, d.h. ohne konstruktive Anpassungen, verwendet werden, wodurch die Produktionskosten verringert werden. Zudem gelingt durch die Lagerung eine zusätzliche Abdichtung zwischen Blende bzw. Markise und Kombinationsantrieb. Durch die von der Blende bzw. Markise weg gerückten Anordnung kann der Übergangsbereich besser abgedichtet werden, insbesondere wenn eine Blende bzw. Markise mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Antrieb nachgerüstet wird.The invention is characterized in that the combination drive has a bearing which is located on the side facing the pin receiving side of the planetary gear. For example, it is a sliding, rolling or ball bearing. As a result, the planetary gear is also supported on the side facing the diaphragm or awning of the planetary gear on a carrier of the combination drive, which serves for example for holding all the components of the combination drive. This ensures that the loads of the combination drive are reduced and wear, in particular of the planetary gear is improved due to the improved storage and leadership. This applies even more when the shaft journal of the awning or aperture is poorly stored or comparatively long. The latter may in particular be the case when an aperture or awning, which is designed for a manual crank drive, to be retrofitted with an electric motor drive. Such diaphragms or awnings are unable to accommodate the high torques associated with an electric motor, so that this close to additional storage provides additional stabilization and reduces wear. As a result, the combination drive can remain functional longer and maintenance intervals can be extended. Furthermore, the storage ensures that the planetary gear is disposed away from the awning, so that the overall volume of the combination drive is reduced in the transition region between aperture or awning and drive, which ultimately facilitates the retrofitting any aperture or awnings with the combination drive according to the invention. As a result, the combination drive according to the invention can be used universally, ie without structural adjustments, whereby the production costs are reduced. In addition, succeeds by the storage of an additional Sealing between cover or awning and combination drive. By the arrangement moved away from the aperture or awning, the transition area can be better sealed, in particular if a panel or awning is retrofitted with the drive according to the invention.

Der Kombinationsantrieb umfasst in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ein Gehäuse, das im Wesentlichen den Antrieb und das Lager des Planetengetriebes umschließt, das auf der der Zapfenaufnahme zugewandten Seite des Planetengetriebe angeordnet ist. Dadurch wird besonders effektiv die zuvor beschriebene Abdichtung erreicht, die insbesondere von Vorteil ist, wenn die Blende bzw. Markise Witterungseinflüssen ausgesetzt ist.In a preferred embodiment, the combination drive comprises a housing, which essentially encloses the drive and the bearing of the planetary gear, which is arranged on the side of the planetary gear facing the pin receiving means. As a result, the sealing described above is achieved particularly effectively, which is particularly advantageous if the panel or awning is exposed to weathering.

Gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform umfasst der händische Kurbelantrieb ein Kegelradgetriebe. Dadurch wird besonders einfach und kostengünstig der Kurbelantrieb realisiert. Dabei sorgt Reibung im Kegelradgetriebe für die Blockierung des Planetenradträgers bei einem Antrieb des Sonnenrads durch den elektromotorischen Antrieb.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the manual crank drive comprises a bevel gear. As a result, the crank drive is realized in a particularly simple and cost-effective manner. In this case, friction in the bevel gear mechanism causes the blocking of the planet carrier when the sun gear is driven by the electric motor drive.

Bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform Kombinationsantrieb umfasst der elektromotorische Antrieb ein Schneckengetriebe. Dadurch können besonders effektiv Antriebsmomente übertragen werden. Zudem sorgt die motorseitig angebrachte Schnecke bei abgeschaltetem Motor effektiv für eine Blockierung des Sonnenrads, um so den Antrieb durch den Kurbelantrieb zu ermöglichen.In a further advantageous embodiment combination drive of the electric motor drive comprises a worm gear. As a result, drive torque can be transmitted particularly effectively. In addition, the motor-mounted screw ensures effectively with the engine off to block the sun gear, so as to enable the drive through the crank drive.

Die Erfindung betrifft ferner eine Blende bzw. Markise mit dem zuvor beschriebenen Kombinationsantrieb. Bevorzugt handelt es sich um eine Rollmarkise mit einer Tuchwelle. Die Blende bzw. Markise wird bevorzugt an einem Wohnwagen bzw. Wohnmobil verwendet, da hier einerseits der besondere Witterungsschutz des erfindungsgemäßen Kombinationsantriebs von besonderem Vorteil ist. Andererseits ist eine an einem Wohnwagen bzw. einem Wohnmobil angebrachte Blende (Markise) besonders hohen Belastungen ausgesetzt, so dass der vergleichsweise stabile, erfindungsgemäße Antrieb von besonderem Vorteil ist.The invention further relates to a diaphragm or awning with the combination drive described above. Preferably, it is a roll awning with a canvas shaft. The aperture or awning is preferably used on a caravan or motorhome, since on the one hand, the special weather protection of the combination drive according to the invention is of particular advantage. On the other hand, an aperture (awning) attached to a caravan or a motor home is subjected to particularly high loads, so that the comparatively stable drive according to the invention is of particular advantage.

Der Motor 5 wird durch einen Schalter (nicht dargestellt) in Gang gesetzt. Die Welle 8 kann aus Montagegründen mehrteilig ausgestaltet sein. Bei ausgeschaltetem Motor 5 ist die Welle 8 aufgrund der Schneckengetriebeanordnung 6, 7 drehfest blockiert. Die Welle 8 durchläuft den Kurbelantrieb 2 und endet in dem Planetengetriebe 3. Letzteres umfasst ein Sonnenrad 9, das an der Welle 8 befestigt ist, mehrere beispielsweise drei, Planetenräder 10, 11 (in der Figur 1 sind lediglich zwei sichtbar dargestellt), ein Hohlrad 12 und einen topfförmigen Planetenradträger 17, der schützend das Planetengetriebe 3 umgibt. Die Planetenräder 10, 11 sind drehbeweglich in dem Planetenradträger 17 gelagert. Der Planetenradträger 17 wird durch die Reibung im Kurbelantrieb 2 drehfest blockiert. Bei feststehendem Planetenradträger 17 überträgt sich die Drehung des Sonnenrads 9 über die Planetenräder 10 auf das Hohlrad 12, das mit der Zapfenaufnahme 13 verbunden ist. Über die Zapfenaufnahme 13 wird der Wellenzapfen 4 angetrieben. Wird der Kurbelantrieb 2 benötigt wird in die Öse 16 eine Kurbel (nicht dargestellt) eingehängt und dessen händisch bewirkte Drehung über das Kegelradgetriebe 14, 15 auf den Planetenradträger 17 übertragen. Die Verbindung zwischen dem Kegelrad 14 und dem Plantetenradträger 17 kann aus Montagegründen mittels Steckverbindung erreicht werden (nicht dargestellt). Da bei ausgeschaltetem Motor 5 das Sonnenrad 9 blockiert ist, umlaufen die Planetenräder 10, 11 das Sonnenrad 9 und deren Drehung überträgt sich auf das Hohlrad 12, das wiederum eine Verstellung der Blende bzw. Markise und insbesondere ein Ab- bzw. Aufwickeln eines Tuches von einer Tuchwelle auslöst. Der Kombinationsantrieb weist auf der zur Blende bzw. Markise zugewandten Seite im Bereich der Zapfenaufnahme 13 ein Gleitlager 17 auf, in dem die mit dem Hohlrad 12 verbundene Welle gelagert ist.In Figure 1, the various components of the combination drive according to the invention are characterized by dotted framing: the electric motor drive 1, the manual crank drive 2, the planetary gear 3. The combination drive has on one side a pin receptacle 13, in which a shaft journal 4 of a panel or Awning is rotatably recorded. The combination drive causes either due to the crank drive 2 or due to the electromotive drive 1, a rotation of the pin receiving 13, which causes a rotation of the associated shaft of the awning or aperture (not shown) due to the rotationally fixed connection to the shaft journal, which in turn an adjustment of the diaphragm or Awning and in particular a winding or winding a cloth from a tissue wave triggers. The electromotive drive 1 comprises a motor 5 and a worm gear from the motor-side worm wheel 6 and a wheel 7 engaged therewith, which in turn is connected to the shaft 8. The engine 5 is started by a switch (not shown). The shaft 8 may be configured in several parts for assembly reasons. When the engine 5 is switched off, the shaft 8 is locked against rotation due to the worm gear arrangement 6, 7. The shaft 8 passes through the crank drive 2 and terminates in the planetary gear 3. The latter includes a sun gear 9 which is fixed to the shaft 8, a plurality of, for example three, planetary gears 10, 11 (in the figure, only two are shown visible), a ring gear 12 and a cup-shaped planet carrier 17, which protects the planetary gear 3 surrounds. The planet gears 10, 11 are rotatably mounted in the planet 17. The planet carrier 17 is locked against rotation by the friction in the crank drive 2. With a fixed planet carrier 17, the rotation of the sun gear 9 transmits via the planetary gears 10 to the ring gear 12, which is connected to the pin receiving means 13 is. About the pin receiving 13 of the shaft journal 4 is driven. If the crank drive 2 is required, a crank (not shown) is suspended in the eyelet 16 and its hand-made rotation is transmitted via the bevel gear 14, 15 to the planet carrier 17. The connection between the bevel gear 14 and the planetary gear carrier 17 can be achieved for assembly reasons by means of a plug connection (not shown). Since the sun gear 9 is blocked when the motor 5, the planetary gears 10, 11 rotate around the sun gear 9 and the rotation is transmitted to the ring gear 12, which in turn an adjustment of the aperture or awning and in particular a unwinding or winding a cloth of a cloth wave triggers. The combination drive has on the side facing the diaphragm or awning in the region of the pin receptacle 13, a sliding bearing 17, in which the shaft connected to the ring gear 12 is mounted.
