Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Fenstern oder eine Tür nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The present invention relates to a window or a door according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es sind Türen bekannt, die als Brandschutz- und Rauchschutztüren nach der DIN 4102 Teil 18 mit einer Vorrichtung ausgestattet sein müssen, die den Türflügel im Brandfall aus seiner Offenstellung in die Geschlossenstellung überführt um die Sauerstoffzufuhr zum Brandherd zu unterbinden und den Brandherd lokal abzuschotten und damit Fluchtwege zu sichern. Ferner sind Lüftungsklappen bekannt, die ebenfalls im Brandfall selbstständig geschlossen werden müssen. Die vorbekannten Schließvorrichtungen sind meist außen im oberen horizontalen Bereich von Blend- und Flügelrahmen montiert und mechanisch über ein Gestänge mit dem Flügel gekoppelt. Dies führt zu einem vergleichsweise großen Aufbau, was optisch eine Beeinträchtigung darstellt.Doors are known which, as fire protection and smoke protection doors according to DIN 4102 Part 18, have to be equipped with a device that moves the door leaf from its open position to the closed position in the event of a fire in order to cut off the oxygen supply to the source of the fire and to seal off the source of the fire locally and thus Secure escape routes. Ventilation flaps are also known which must also be closed automatically in the event of a fire. The previously known locking devices are usually mounted outside in the upper horizontal area of the frame and sash and are mechanically coupled to the sash via a linkage. This leads to a comparatively large structure, which is a visual disadvantage.

Die GB 1 362 194 offenbart eine Schließvorrichtung für Türen, bei der über eine Steuerungseinrichtung ein Energiespeicher entriegelbar ist, um die Tür in eine Schließposition zu bewegen. Dann wird über einen Seilzug eine Bewegungsmechanik zum Schließen der Tür betätigt.The GB 1,362,194 discloses a locking device for doors in which an energy storage device can be unlocked via a control device in order to move the door into a closed position. Then a movement mechanism to close the door is operated via a cable pull.

In der DE 38 44 101 ist eine elektromechanische Vorrichtung zum Schließen und Öffnen von Fenstern gezeigt, bei der über verschiedene Mechaniken eine Fernsteuerung des Fensters ermöglicht werden soll.In the DE 38 44 101 an electromechanical device for closing and opening windows is shown, in which a remote control of the window is to be made possible via various mechanisms.

Die US 4,301,623 offenbart eine halbautomatische Schiebetür, die durch eine Feder in die geschlossene Position vorgespannt ist.The U.S. 4,301,623 discloses a semi-automatic sliding door that is spring biased to the closed position.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Fenster oder eine Tür mit einer Vorrichtung zum Schließen des Fensters oder der Türen zu schaffen, die einen kompakten Aufbau ermöglicht und ein einfaches Schließen eines Flügels gewährleistet.It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a window or a door with a device for closing the window or doors which enables a compact design and ensures easy closing of a sash.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit einem Fenster oder einer Tür mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with a window or a door with the features of claim 1.

Erfindungsgemäß umfasst die Vorrichtung des Fensters oder der Tür ein Zugelement, das an einer Seite an einem Rahmen und an der gegenüberliegenden Seite an einer Zugvorrichtung festgelegt ist, wobei die Zugvorrichtung einen Auslösemechanismus umfasst, der bei Betätigung die Zugvorrichtung veranlasst an dem Zugelement zu ziehen und damit über das Zugelement einen geöffneten Flügel in eine geschlossene Position bewegt. Durch den Einsatz eines Zugelementes entfällt die Notwendigkeit eines Gestänges, das vergleichsweise groß aufgebaut ist und es kann somit der Raumbedarf der Zugvorrichtung minimiert werden. Eine solche Zugvorrichtung lässt sich auch gut in einen Flügel oder einen umgebenen Rahmen integrieren.According to the invention, the device of the window or the door comprises a pulling element which is fixed on one side to a frame and on the opposite side to a pulling device, the pulling device comprising a trigger mechanism which, when actuated, causes the pulling device to pull on the pulling element and thus moves an open wing into a closed position via the pulling element. The use of a pulling element eliminates the need for a linkage that is comparatively large, and the space required by the pulling device can thus be minimized. Such a pulling device can also be easily integrated into a wing or a surrounding frame.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist das Zugelement von dem Rahmen zu einer Umlenkeinrichtung geführt und von der Umlenkeinrichtung in einem Falz zwischen Flügel und Blendrahmen oder zu der im Falz angeordneten Zugvorrichtung geführt. Durch die Umlenkeinrichtung kann die Zugvorrichtung flexibel an der gewünschten Position festgelegt werden, wobei die Umlenkeinrichtung eine entsprechende Richtungsänderung des Zugelementes ermöglicht, so dass die Krafteinleitung durch die Zugvorrichtung nicht notwendigerweise in Richtung der Schließrichtung des Flügels erfolgen muss.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the tension element is guided from the frame to a deflection device and is guided by the deflection device in a fold between the sash and the frame or to the tension device arranged in the fold. By means of the deflection device, the pulling device can be flexibly fixed at the desired position, the deflection device enabling a corresponding change in direction of the pulling element, so that the introduction of force by the pulling device does not necessarily have to take place in the direction of the closing direction of the sash.

Der Auslösemechanismus umfasst vorzugsweise einen bestromten Magneten, der bei Unterbrechung der Stromversorgung eine Betätigung der Zugvorrichtung auslöst. Eine solche Auslösung bewährt sich insbesondere im Brandfall, da dann die Stromversorgung unterbrochen wird und ein automatisches Schließen des Flügels gewährleistet wird. Es ist natürlich auch möglich, den Auslösemechanismus über eine Steuerung auszulösen, die beispielsweise im Falle eines Sturms, Regen oder anderer Umgebungsbedingungen für ein automatisches Schließen des Fensters oder der Tür sorgt.The trigger mechanism preferably comprises an energized magnet which triggers actuation of the pulling device when the power supply is interrupted. Such a release is particularly useful in the event of a fire, since the power supply is then interrupted and automatic closing of the sash is guaranteed. It is of course also possible to trigger the trigger mechanism via a control that ensures automatic closing of the window or door in the event of a storm, rain or other ambient conditions, for example.

Gemäß der Erfindung umfasst die Zugvorrichtung einen Kolben, mittels dem das Zugelement in eine eingezogene Position bewegbar ist. Dabei ist an dem Kolben eine weitere Umlenkrolle vorgesehen und das Zugelement ist um die weitere Umlenkrolle nach Art eines Flaschenzuges geführt. Dadurch lässt sich bei einem geringen Verfahrweg des Kolbens das Zugelement um die jeweils doppelte Streckenlänge ziehen. Auch eine mehrfache Umlenkung nach Art eines Flaschenzuges ist möglich, so dass der Kolben nur geringfügig bewegt werden muss, während das Zugelement ein Vielfaches der Wegstrecke zurücklegt. Das Zugelement kann dabei mit einem Ende an einem Gehäuse der Zugvorrichtung festgelegt sein.According to the invention, the pulling device comprises a piston, by means of which the pulling element can be moved into a retracted position. A further deflection roller is provided on the piston and the pulling element is guided around the further deflection roller in the manner of a pulley block. As a result, the pulling element can be moved around the respective piston with a short travel distance pull twice the distance. Multiple deflection in the manner of a pulley block is also possible, so that the piston only has to be moved slightly while the tension element covers a multiple of the distance. The pulling element can be fixed with one end to a housing of the pulling device.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung weist die Zugvorrichtung eine Gasdruckfeder auf, mittels der das Zugelement bewegbar ist. Eine solche Gasdruckfeder kann bei kompaktem Aufbau die notwendige Kraft zum Bewegen des Zugelementes und des Flügels bereitstellen.In an advantageous embodiment, the pulling device has a gas pressure spring, by means of which the pulling element can be moved. Such a gas pressure spring can provide the necessary force for moving the tension element and the wing with a compact design.

Damit das Zugelement auch beim normalen Öffnen und Schließen des Flügels gespannt ist, kann eine Feder an der Zugvorrichtung vorgesehen sein.A spring can be provided on the pulling device so that the pulling element is also tensioned during normal opening and closing of the sash.

Das Zugelement ist vorzugsweise als Seil ausgebildet. Auch die Anordnung einer Kette oder eines Bandes ist möglich, wobei ein Seil einen besonders kompakten Aufbau ermöglicht.The tension element is preferably designed as a rope. The arrangement of a chain or a belt is also possible, a rope enabling a particularly compact structure.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung umfasst der Auslösemechanismus einen Auslösehebel, der über eine Feder in eine Auslöseposition vorgespannt ist. Dadurch kann beim Auslösen der Auslösehebel in die entsprechende Position bewegt werden. Zudem kann der Auslösemechanismus eine Rückstellmechanik aufweisen, mittels dem nach einem Auslösen der Auslösemechanismus in die ursprüngliche Position zurücksetzbar ist. Diese Rückstellmechanik kann manuell oder automatisch über eine Steuerung erfolgen.In a further embodiment of the invention, the release mechanism comprises a release lever which is pretensioned into a release position via a spring. This means that the release lever can be moved into the corresponding position when it is released. In addition, the release mechanism can have a reset mechanism by means of which the release mechanism can be reset to the original position after a release. This reset mechanism can be done manually or automatically via a control.

Vorzugsweise ist die Zugvorrichtung innerhalb eines Falz zwischen Blendrahmen und Flügel und/oder in dem Blendrahmen oder Flügelrahmen integriert. Dadurch ist die Zugvorrichtung von außen nicht sichtbar und tritt daher optisch nicht in Erscheinung. Die Zugvorrichtung kann dabei ein Gehäuse aufweisen, das an dem Flügelrahmen oder dem Blendrahmen festgelegt ist.The pulling device is preferably integrated within a fold between the frame and sash and / or in the frame or sash. As a result, the pulling device is not visible from the outside and therefore does not appear visually. The pulling device can have a housing which is fixed to the casement or the frame.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist ein Umlenkelement an dem Flügelrahmen festgelegt, das mindestens zwei Umlenkrollen aufweist, um das Zugelement von dem Rahmen in eine Richtung an oder in dem Flügelrahmen zu führen. Denn das Zugelement kann in einer entsprechenden Nut innerhalb des Rahmens oder in dem Falz bewegt werden.In an advantageous embodiment, a deflection element is fixed on the casement, which has at least two deflection rollers in order to move the tension element from to guide the frame in one direction on or in the casement. Because the tension element can be moved in a corresponding groove within the frame or in the fold.

Vorzugsweise ist die Zugvorrichtung an dem Flügelrahmen oder Blendrahmen so angeordnet, dass der Kolben sich in vertikale Richtung bewegt. Dadurch kann die meist längere Seite eines Rahmens zur Unterbringung der Zugvorrichtung verwendet werden.The pulling device is preferably arranged on the casement or frame in such a way that the piston moves in the vertical direction. As a result, the mostly longer side of a frame can be used to accommodate the pulling device.

Um günstige Hebelverhältnisse zu erhalten, kann das Zugelement beabstandet von einer Scharnierachse an dem Blendrahmen an einem Halter festgelegt sein. Der Flügel kann dabei als Dreh-Kipp-Fenster ausgebildet sein, so dass ein Schließen sowohl in einer gedrehten als auch in einer gekippten Stellung des Fensters erhalten wird.In order to obtain favorable leverage ratios, the tension element can be fixed on a holder at a distance from a hinge axis on the frame. The sash can be designed as a turn-tilt window so that the window can be closed in both a rotated and a tilted position.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist zwischen dem Blendrahmen und dem Flügel mindestens ein Riegelelement vorgesehen, das bei Betätigung des Auslösemechanismus und Schließen des Flügels den Flügel an dem Blendrahmen verriegelt. Denn nach einer weiteren Norm muss im Brandschutzfall der Flügel nicht nur geschlossen sondern auch verriegelt werden. Dies kann vorzugsweise über ein Einrasten mindestens eines Riegels in eine Riegelaufnahme erfolgen, so dass der Auslösemechanismus sowohl ein Schließen als auch ein Verriegeln des Flügels bewirkt.According to a further embodiment of the invention, at least one locking element is provided between the window frame and the wing, which locks the wing on the window frame when the trigger mechanism is actuated and the wing is closed. Because according to another standard, in the event of fire protection, the sash must not only be closed but also locked. This can preferably be done by latching at least one bolt into a bolt receptacle, so that the release mechanism causes both a closing and a locking of the sash.

Eine Vorrichtung 1 zum Schließen von Fenstern oder Türen ist zwischen einem Blendrahmen 2 und einem Flügelrahmen 3 montiert, um in dem gewünschten Fall den Flügel 3 in eine geschlossene Position zu bewegen. Der Flügel 3 ist dabei über Beschlagsteile 4 drehbar und/oder kippbar an dem Blendrahmen 2 gelagert. Der Flügel 3 kann dabei als Fenster, Tür, Klappe oder sonstiges zu öffnendes Bauteil ausgebildet sein.A device 1 for closing windows or doors is mounted between a frame 2 and a sash 3 in order to move the sash 3 into a closed position in the desired case. The wing 3 is rotatably and / or tiltably mounted on the frame 2 via fittings 4. The wing 3 can be designed as a window, door, flap or other openable component.

Die Vorrichtung umfasst ein Zugelement 5 in Form eines Seiles aus Stahl, das an einem Ende 7 an einem Halteelement 6 an dem Blendrahmen 2 festgelegt ist. Von dem Halteelement 6 ist das Zugelement 5 zu einer Umlenkeinrichtung 8 geführt, wo ein oder mehrere Umlenkrollen 9 das Zugelement 5 in die gewünschte Richtung und Ebene führen. Um neben einer Richtungsänderung des Zugelementes 5 in horizontale Richtung auch eine Richtungsänderung in vertikale Richtung vorzunehmen, umfasst die Umlenkeinrichtung 8 eine erste Umlenkrolle 9 und eine zweite Umlenkrolle 10, so dass das Zugelement 5 in die gewünschte Position in oder an dem Flügelrahmen geführt ist.The device comprises a tension element 5 in the form of a rope made of steel, which is fixed at one end 7 to a holding element 6 on the frame 2. The tension element 5 is guided from the holding element 6 to a deflection device 8, where one or more deflection rollers 9 guide the tension element 5 in the desired direction and plane. In order to change the direction of the tension element 5 in the horizontal direction as well as a change in direction in the vertical direction, the deflection device 8 comprises a first deflection roller 9 and a second deflection roller 10, so that the tension element 5 is guided into the desired position in or on the sash.

Wie in den Figuren 2 und 3 zu sehen ist, kann das Zugelement 5 beim Öffnen des Flügels 3 in eine ausgezogene Position bewegt werden, wobei das Zugelement 5 an dem Flügel 3 durch die Umlenkeinrichtung 8 in einer vorbestimmten Position unter Spannung gehalten ist. Von der Umlenkeinrichtung 8 wird das Zugelement 5 über eine Umlenkrolle 11 benachbart zu einer Scharnierachse 12 des Flügels 3 zu einer Zugvorrichtung 13 geführt.As in the Figures 2 and 3 As can be seen, the pulling element 5 can be moved into an extended position when the sash 3 is opened, the pulling element 5 on the wing 3 is held under tension by the deflection device 8 in a predetermined position. The pulling element 5 is guided by the deflecting device 8 via a deflecting roller 11 adjacent to a hinge axis 12 of the sash 3 to a pulling device 13.

Die in den Figuren 4, 5 und 6 dargestellte Zugvorrichtung 13 umfasst ein Gehäuse 14, das an dem Flügelrahmen 3 festlegbar ist. In dem Gehäuse 14 ist das Zugelement 5 von der Umlenkrolle 11 zu einer weiteren Umlenkrolle 15 geführt und dann an einem Ende 16 an dem Gehäuse 14 oder einem damit verbundenen Bauteil festgelegt. Auch die Umlenkrolle 11 ist an einem Block 17 an dem Flügelrahmen 3 fixiert. Die Umlenkrolle 15 ist hingegen frei beweglich im Gehäuse 14 unterhalb der Spitze eines bewegbaren Kolbens 19 an einem Führungsschlitten 18 gelagert, wobei der Kolben 19 Bestandteil einer Gasdruckfeder 20 ist. Die Gasdruckfeder 20 ist mit einer Stange über eine Mutter 21 ortsfest angeordnet. Der Führungsschlitten 18 ist über eine Spiralfeder 22 vorgespannt, die den Kolben 19 umschließt und sich im Gehäuse 14 abstützt, so dass bei einer Bewegung der Umlenkrolle 15 das Zugelement 5 in einer gespannten Position gehalten wird.The ones in the Figures 4 , 5 and 6 The pulling device 13 shown comprises a housing 14 which can be fixed to the casement 3. In the housing 14, the tension element 5 is guided from the deflection roller 11 to a further deflection roller 15 and then fixed at one end 16 on the housing 14 or a component connected to it. The deflection roller 11 is also fixed to a block 17 on the casement 3. The deflection roller 15, on the other hand, is freely movable in the housing 14 below the tip of a movable piston 19 on a guide slide 18, the piston 19 being part of a gas pressure spring 20. The gas pressure spring 20 is arranged in a stationary manner with a rod via a nut 21. The guide carriage 18 is pretensioned via a spiral spring 22 which surrounds the piston 19 and is supported in the housing 14, so that the tension element 5 is held in a tensioned position when the deflection roller 15 moves.

Um in einer vorbestimmten Situation, beispielsweise in einem Brandfall bei erhöhten Temperaturen, den Flügel 3 automatisch in eine geschlossene Position zu bewegen, ist ein Auslösemechanismus vorgesehen. Dieser Auslösemechanismus umfasst einen bestromten Magneten 23, der über einen Anker mit einer Rolle 24 an einer Aufnahme an einem Hebel 25 anliegt. Der Hebel 25 ist über eine Feder 26 vorgespannt, wobei eine Bewegung durch den Anker und die Rolle 24 verhindert wird. Wird die Stromversorgung an dem Magneten 23 unterbrochen, fährt die Rolle 24 in den Magneten 23 die Feder 26 drückt den Hebel 25 aufgrund der Federkraft in Figur 6 nach rechts, so dass der Hebel 25 um den Drehpunkt 30 verschwenkt, wodurch ein Auslöseknopf 27 an der Gasdruckfeder 20 betätigt wird. Die Gasdruckfeder 20 bewirkt nach Auslösung über den Knopf 27 eine sofortige Bewegung des Kolbens 19 aufgrund von in der Gasdruckfeder 20 vorhandenen Druckdifferenzen und mindestens einem Ausgleichsventil nach unten, wodurch das Zugelement 5 über die Umlenkrolle 15 gezogen wird. Aufgrund der Umlenkung an der Umlenkrolle 15 wird eine Bewegung des Kolbens 19 so umgesetzt, dass das Zugelement 5 mit einer doppelten Geschwindigkeit bewegt wird, also eine Wegstrecke des Kolbens 19 eine doppelte Zugstrecke an dem Zugelement 5 bewirkt. Durch Ziehen an dem Zugelement 5 wird der Flügel 3 automatisch in eine geschlossene Position bewegt.A trigger mechanism is provided in order to automatically move the leaf 3 into a closed position in a predetermined situation, for example in the event of a fire at elevated temperatures. This trigger mechanism comprises an energized magnet 23 which rests against a receptacle on a lever 25 via an armature with a roller 24. The lever 25 is biased by a spring 26, movement by the armature and the roller 24 being prevented. If the power supply to the magnet 23 is interrupted, the roller 24 moves into the magnet 23, the spring 26 pushes the lever 25 in due to the spring force Figure 6 to the right, so that the lever 25 is pivoted about the pivot point 30, whereby a release button 27 on the gas pressure spring 20 is actuated. The gas pressure spring 20 causes an immediate downward movement of the piston 19 when triggered via the button 27 due to pressure differences in the gas pressure spring 20 and at least one equalizing valve, as a result of which the pulling element 5 is pulled over the deflection roller 15. Due to the deflection on the deflection roller 15, a movement of the piston 19 is implemented in such a way that the pulling element 5 is moved at twice the speed, that is to say one Distance of the piston 19 causes a double pulling distance on the pulling element 5. By pulling on the pulling element 5, the wing 3 is automatically moved into a closed position.

Nach erfolgter Auslösung kann der Auslösemechanismus durch eine Rückstellmechanik wieder in die ursprüngliche Position bewegt werden. Hierfür wird zunächst an dem Magneten 23 der Steuerstrom wieder eingeschaltet, so dass der Anker mit der Rolle 24 wieder nach unten gedrückt wird. Dann wird über einen Handhebel 31, der um eine Achse 32 drehbar ist, ein Rückstellseil 30 bewegt, das einen Rückstellhebel 28 um eine Achse 29 verschwenkt. Der Rückstellhebel 28 drückt dabei den Hebel 25 wieder in die ursprüngliche Position und spannt dabei die Feder 26. Die Rolle 24 an dem Anker rastet dann in eine Aussparung an dem Hebel 25 ein und hält diesen in der ursprünglichen Position. Dann kann der Auslösemechanismus von neuem betätigt werden.After the release has taken place, the release mechanism can be moved back to its original position using a reset mechanism. For this purpose, the control current is first switched on again at the magnet 23, so that the armature with the roller 24 is pressed down again. Then a return cable 30 is moved via a hand lever 31, which is rotatable about an axis 32, and pivots a return lever 28 about an axis 29. The reset lever 28 presses the lever 25 back into the original position and tensions the spring 26. The roller 24 on the armature then engages in a recess on the lever 25 and holds it in the original position. Then the trigger mechanism can be operated again.

In den Figuren 7A bis 7C sind unterschiedliche Positionen der Vorrichtung bei der Montage gezeigt. Zunächst wird die Zugvorrichtung 13 an dem Flügelrahmen 3 montiert, wobei das Zugelement 5 noch lose gehalten ist. Anschließend wird die Umlenkeinrichtung 8 an der gewünschten Position beabstandet von der Schwenkachse 12 des Flügels an dem Flügel 3 montiert.In the Figures 7A to 7C different positions of the device are shown during assembly. First, the pulling device 13 is mounted on the casement 3, the pulling element 5 still being held loosely. The deflection device 8 is then mounted on the wing 3 at the desired position at a distance from the pivot axis 12 of the wing.

Wie in Figur 7B gezeigt wird, können dann die Beschlagsteile 4 zum Bewegen des Flügels 3 montiert werden.As in Figure 7B is shown, the fitting parts 4 for moving the sash 3 can then be mounted.

Anschließend wird das Zugelement 5 mit seinem Ende an dem Blendrahmen festgelegt, so dass bei Auslösen der Zugvorrichtung der Flügel geschlossen werden kann (Fig. 7C).The end of the pulling element 5 is then fixed to the frame so that the sash can be closed when the pulling device is triggered ( Figure 7C ).

Die Zugvorrichtung 13 soll dabei nur in einem bestimmten Einsatzfall, beispielsweise im Brandfall ausgelöst werden. Im Normalfall kann der Flügel 3 problemlos geöffnet und geschlossen werden, wobei beim Öffnen die wirkende Kraft der den Kolben 19 umgebenden Feder 22 überwunden werden muss, die jedoch vergleichsweise gering ist, da diese nur das Zugelement 5 auf Spannung hält und insofern die Bewegung des Flügels 3 nicht beeinträchtigt.The pulling device 13 should only be triggered in a specific application, for example in the event of a fire. Normally, the wing 3 can be opened and closed without any problems, with the force of the spring 22 surrounding the piston 19 having to be overcome when opening, which is, however, comparatively small, since it only keeps the tension element 5 under tension and, in this respect, the movement of the wing 3 not affected.

In Figur 8 ist die Zugvorrichtung 13 mit Beschlagsteilen in einer Einbausituation an einem Fenster dargestellt. Das Fenster umfasst einen Drehgriff 40, der über Schubstangen 41, 42 und 43 eine Verriegelung und Entriegelung des Flügels ermöglicht. Dabei sind die Riegel so ausgebildet, dass bei einem Schließen des Flügels ein Verrasten stattfindet, so dass der Flügel 3 an dem Blendrahmen 2 sicher gehalten ist. Hierfür ist an einem Beschlagsteil 44 eine Feder 45 vorgesehen, die ein Riegelelement 46 in eine verriegelte Position vorspannt. Das Riegelelement 46 kann dabei eine Riegelaufnahme 47 hintergreifen. Durch Einsatz mehrerer verrastbarer Riegelelemente an einem Flügel kann gewährleistet werden, dass beim Schließen des Flügels dieser auch verriegelt wird, so dass das Fenster oder die Tür als Brandschutzausführung zugelassen werden kann.In Figure 8 the pulling device 13 is shown with fittings in an installation situation on a window. The window comprises a rotary handle 40, which enables the sash to be locked and unlocked via push rods 41, 42 and 43. The latches are designed in such a way that locking takes place when the sash is closed, so that the sash 3 is securely held on the frame 2. For this purpose, a spring 45 is provided on a fitting part 44, which biases a locking element 46 into a locked position. The locking element 46 can engage behind a locking receptacle 47. By using several lockable locking elements on a sash, it can be guaranteed that when the sash is closed, it is also locked, so that the window or door can be approved as a fire protection version.

In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Zugvorrichtung 13 so angeordnet, dass der Kolben 19 in vertikale Richtung bewegt wird. Denn meist ist benachbart zu der Scharnierachse an dem Flügelrahmen oder dem Blendrahmen ausreichend Platz zur Aufnahme einer Zugvorrichtung 13. Es ist natürlich auch möglich, die Zugvorrichtung 13 in horizontale Richtung anzuordnen beispielsweise im oberen Bereich am Flügelrahmen oder am Blendrahmen.In the illustrated embodiment, the pulling device 13 is arranged such that the piston 19 is moved in the vertical direction. Because there is usually sufficient space adjacent to the hinge axis on the casement or the window frame to accommodate a pulling device 13. It is of course also possible to arrange the pulling device 13 in the horizontal direction, for example in the upper area of the casement or the window frame.

Zum automatischen Schließen des Flügels in einer vorbestimmten Situation ist es notwendig, dass das Zugelement 5 an einer Seite an einem Blendrahmen oder an einem Flügelrahmen fixiert ist und an der gegenüberliegenden Seite die Zugvorrichtung angeordnet ist. Es ist natürlich wahlweise möglich die Zugvorrichtung 13 am Blendrahmen oder am Flügelrahmen anzuordnen, je nachdem an welchem Rahmen ein besserer Einbau möglich ist.To automatically close the sash in a predetermined situation, it is necessary that the pulling element 5 is fixed on one side to a frame or on a sash and the pulling device is arranged on the opposite side. It is of course optionally possible to arrange the pulling device 13 on the frame or on the casement, depending on which frame a better installation is possible.

In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel erfolgt die Krafteinleitung in das Zugelement 5 über eine Gasdruckfeder 20 als Kraftspeicher. Es ist natürlich möglich, andere mechanische Mittel einzusetzen, beispielsweise Federn, Gaspatronen oder andere Bauteile zur plötzlichen Krafteinleitung nach entsprechender Auslösung.In the illustrated embodiment, the force is introduced into the tension element 5 via a gas pressure spring 20 as an energy storage device. It is of course possible to use other mechanical means, for example springs, gas cartridges or other components for the sudden introduction of force after a corresponding release.

Ferner kann der Auslösemechanismus statt durch einen Magneten 23 durch eine Steuerung oder andere Elemente betätigt werden. Beim Einsatz einer Steuerung kann auch das Rückstellen des Auslösemechanismus über eine entsprechende Steuerung eines Rückstellantriebes erfolgen.Furthermore, the trigger mechanism can be operated by a control or other elements instead of a magnet 23. When using a controller The release mechanism can also be reset via a corresponding control of a reset drive.
