Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Rollladen, insbesondere zur Montage an einer Gebäudeöffnung, mit einer Vielzahl von miteinander gekoppelten Lamellen, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a roller shutter, in particular for mounting on a building opening, with a plurality of mutually coupled slats, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aus der FR 1 519 724 ist ein Rollladen bekannt, der eine Vielzahl von Lamellen aufweist, die an ihrer Oberkante ein Hakenelement und an ihrer Unterseite einen Gegenhaken aufweisen. Dadurch können die Lamellen lose aneinander gehängt werden, wobei eine vertikale Bewegbarkeit der Lamellen untereinander durch die offene Gestaltung des Hakens und des Gegenhakens erhalten bleibt. Der Haken ist aus einem Steg gebildet, an dem eine Vielzahl von Öffnungen ausgespart sin. Wenn die Lamellen lose aneinander hängen, sind die Öffnungen im sichtbaren Bereich und ermöglichen somit einen Lichteinfall. Oberhalb einer Gebäudeöffnung können die Lamellen auf einer Rolle aufgewickelt werden, wobei sie im Bereich des Hakens und des Gegenhakens drehbar sind. Beim Abwickeln werden die Lamellen durch ihr Eigengewicht auseinander gezogen und eine Gebäudeöffnung ist durch den Rollladen zunächst teilweise, dann vollständig transluzent verschattet. Dann werden die Lamellen anfangs im unteren Bereich, bis hin zur Oberkante der Gebäudeöffnung aufeinander gelegt, bis die Gebäudeöffnung opak verschattet ist.From the FR 1 519 724 is known a roller shutter, which has a plurality of fins, which have at its upper edge a hook element and on its underside a counter hook. As a result, the slats can be hung loosely together, with a vertical mobility of the slats is maintained among themselves by the open design of the hook and the counter hook. The hook is formed from a web on which a plurality of openings are recessed sin. If the slats hang loosely together, the openings are in the visible range and thus allow a light incidence. Above a building opening, the slats can be wound on a roll, being rotatable in the region of the hook and the counter hook. When unwinding, the slats are pulled apart by their own weight and a building opening is partially shadowed by the roller shutter, then completely translucent. Then the slats are initially placed in the lower area, up to the top of the building opening on each other, until the building opening is shaded opaque.

Aufgegriffen wurde diese Lösung wieder in der DE 101 39 583 A1 , Fig. 4. Aus Fig. 3 und 4 dieser Schrift ist ein Rollladen bekannt, der eine Vielzahl von Lamellen aufweist, die mittels Hakenelementen miteinander verbunden sind, welche die Lamellen durchsetzen. Dadurch können die Lamellen wiederum lose aneinander gehängt werden, wobei eine vertikale Bewegbarkeit der Lamellen untereinander durch die offene Gestaltung des Hakens und des Gegenhakens erhalten bleibt. Die Montage ist zudem problematisch.This solution was taken up again in the DE 101 39 583 A1 . Fig. 4 , Out Fig. 3 and 4 This document is a roller shutter is known which has a plurality of fins which are interconnected by means of hook elements which pass through the slats. As a result, the slats can in turn be loosely hung together, with a vertical mobility of the slats is maintained among themselves by the open design of the hook and the counter hook. The assembly is also problematic.

Nach einer weiteren Lösung dieser Schrift sind die Lamellen, die als rohrförmige Elemente ausgebildet sind, von Bohrungen durchsetzt, durch welche ein Drahtseil gezogen ist. Um die Lamellen relativ zueinander auf Abstand zu halten, ist jeweils zwischen zwei Lamellen eine Hülse über das Drahtseil gezogen. Hieran ist nachteilig, dass die Hülsen die Optik der Anordnung nachteilig beeinflussen. Die an sich durch Einsatz eines Seiles, insbesondere eines Drahtseiles, mögliche filigrane Optik geht derart verloren.According to a further solution of this document, the lamellae, which are formed as tubular elements, penetrated by holes through which a wire rope is pulled. In order to keep the slats at a distance relative to each other, a sleeve is pulled over the wire rope in each case between two slats. This has the disadvantage that the sleeves affect the appearance of the arrangement adversely. The in itself by using a rope, in particular a wire rope, possible filigree optics is so lost.

Nach einer dritten Variante (Figuren 9 und 10) sind die Lamellen mit einem starren Draht verbunden, der aber das Aufwickeln behindert.According to a third variant (Figures 9 and 10), the slats are connected to a rigid wire, but hinders the winding.

Darüber hinaus sind die eingesetzten rohrförmigen Elemente relativ labil und knicken leicht.In addition, the tubular elements used are relatively unstable and bend easily.

Ein gattungsgemäßer Rollladen ist aus der CH 12614 A bekannt. Die horizontal ausgerichteten Lamellen dieses Rollladens sind von Seilen durchsetzt. Von der Rückseite her sind ferner Löcher in die Lamellen eingebracht, welche auch jeweils eines der Seile durchsetzt. Durch ein Ausgießen der Löcher mit einem aushärtbaren Material wie Gips wird ein sicherer Sitz der Lamellen auf dem Seil gewährleistet.A generic shutter is from the CH 12614 A known. The horizontally aligned slats of this shutter are interspersed with ropes. From the back further holes are introduced into the slats, which also passes through each one of the ropes. By pouring the holes with a hardenable material such as gypsum a secure fit of the lamellae is ensured on the rope.

Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, einen Rollladen zu schaffen, bei dem die einzelnen Lamellen auf andere Weise mittels wenigstens eines flexiblen Seils miteinander verbunden und auf dem Seil in definiertem Abstand zueinander gehalten sind, ohne dass hierdurch die Optik des Seiles beeinträchtigt wird.The invention has the object to provide a roller shutter, in which the individual blades are connected to each other in other ways by means of at least one flexible cable and held on the rope at a defined distance from each other, without affecting the appearance of the rope is affected.

Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe durch den Gegenstand des Anspruchs 1. Nach dem Kennzeichen dieses Anspruchs sind die Lamellen mittels einer Prägung im Bereich der Bohrung auf dem Seil festgelegt, mit der Material der Lamellen gegen das Seil gepresst ist. Damit ist der Bereich des Seiles zwischen den Lamellen auf einfache Weise halteelementfrei. Die Optik wird damit in diesem Bereich nicht nachteilig von einem Halteelement beeinträchtig sondern bleibt filigran und ansprechend.The invention solves this problem by the subject matter of claim 1. According to the characterizing part of this claim, the lamellae are fixed by means of an embossing in the region of the bore on the rope, with the material of the lamellae pressed against the rope. Thus, the area of the rope between the slats is free holding element-free. The optics is thus not adversely affected by a holding element in this area but remains filigree and appealing.

Vorzugsweise bestehen die Lamellen aus Vollmaterialprofilen, insbesondere aus Leichtmetall, wobei sie von den Bohrungen durchsetzt und wiederum mittels Materialprägung auf dem Seil gehalten sind. Auch diese Variante der Erfindung kommt ohne separates Halteelement auf dem Seil aus und ist damit kostengünstig und leicht herstellbar. Sie bietet zudem den geforderten Vorteil der ansprechenden Optik ohne Halteelement zwischen den Lamellen.Preferably, the lamellae consist of solid material profiles, in particular of light metal, wherein they are penetrated by the holes and in turn are held by means of material embossing on the rope. This variant of the invention does not require a separate retaining element on the rope and is therefore inexpensive and easy to produce. It also offers the required advantage of the appealing look without holding element between the slats.

In Figur 1 ist eine sich über zwei Etagen erstreckende Gebäudeöffnung 1 gezeigt, die in mehrere Flächenelemente aufgeteilt ist, und durch erfindungsgemäße Rolläden 2 verschattet werden können, wobei die Rolläden 2 eine Vielzahl von Lamellen 3 aufweisen. Die Rolläden bilden derart weite und enge transluzente Flächen 4, 5 aus.In FIG. 1 a building opening 1 extending over two floors is shown, which is divided into a plurality of surface elements, and can be shaded by blinds 2 according to the invention, the blinds 2 having a multiplicity of lamellae 3. The blinds form such wide and narrow translucent surfaces 4, 5.

Die einzelnen Lamellen 3 sind über wenigstens eines oder mehrere Seile 10 (Fig. 4), insbesondere Drahtseile, miteinander verbunden. Vorzugsweise können sie durch Zug an Zugeinrichtungen (hier nicht im Detail dargestellt) aufgerollt werden.The individual lamellae 3 are connected via at least one or more cables 10 (FIG. Fig. 4 ), in particular wire cables, connected to each other. Preferably, they can be rolled up by pulling on traction devices (not shown here in detail).

Die Lamellen 3 weisen vorzugsweise - aber nicht zwingend - einen Querschnitt nach Art der Fig. 2 auf.The lamellae 3 preferably have - but not necessarily - a cross section according to the type Fig. 2 on.

Fig. 2 zeigt quasi den Zustand der bevorzugten Ausrichtung, wenn die Lamellen 3 zur Beschattung einer vertikalen Fläche eingesetzt werden. Der Einsatz der Lamellen 3 ist selbstverständlich nicht auf diese Geometrie der Lamellen und die gewählte Ausrichtung beschränkt. Die dargestellte Geometrie ist aber besonders vorteilhaft. Fig. 2 shows the state of the preferred orientation when the slats 3 are used for shading a vertical surface. The use of the slats 3 is of course not limited to this geometry of the slats and the selected orientation. The illustrated geometry is particularly advantageous.

Die Lamellen 3 bestehen vorzugsweise aus einem Leichtmetall wie Aluminium und sind besonders bevorzugt als massive, nicht hohle (Strangpreß-)Profile ausgebildet.The lamellae 3 are preferably made of a light metal such as aluminum and are particularly preferably designed as solid, non-hollow (extruded) profiles.

Dies ist insbesondere möglich, da die einzelnen Lamellen 3 im Querschnitt vorzugsweise nur eine Erstreckung von wenigen Millimetern (5 bis 10 mm) aufweisen, so dass sie trotz der Ausbildung als Massivprofile leicht bleiben und dennoch besonders stabil sind, so dass sie deutliche Vorteile gegenüber Hohlprofilen ähnlich geringen Querschnitts bilden, die in der Regel relativ leicht knicken.This is particularly possible because the individual lamellae 3 in cross-section preferably only an extension of a few millimeters (5 to 10 mm), so that they remain lightweight despite training as solid profiles and yet are particularly stable, so that they have significant advantages over hollow sections form similar low cross-section, which usually bend relatively easily.

Nach Fig. 2 bilden die Lamellen 3 im Querschnitt nahezu eine Art rechtwinkliges Dreieck aus, wobei das im Schnitt zu betrachtende Dreieck eine Basis 6, eine hier nahezu rechtwinklig ausgerichtete Seitenfläche 8 - die aber vorzugsweise in sich konkav gebogen ausgebildet ist - und eine Schrägfläche 7 aufweist. Die Kantenbereiche zwischen den Flächen 6, 7, 8 sind vorzugsweise mit relativ großen Radien versehen und damit abgerundet ausgebildet.To Fig. 2 the lamellas 3 form in cross-section almost a kind of right-angled triangle, the triangle to be considered in section forming a base 6, one here Almost at right angles aligned side surface 8 - but preferably bent in a concave shape - and has an inclined surface 7. The edge regions between the surfaces 6, 7, 8 are preferably provided with relatively large radii and thus formed rounded.

Wie in Fig. 3 zu erkennen, sind die Lamellen 3 - je nach Anzahl der sie verbindenden Seile 10 - wenigstens einmal oder mehrfach von Bohrungen 9 durchsetzt, die sich vorzugsweise zwischen der Basis 6 und der Schrägfläche 7 erstrecken. Da die Seitenfläche 8 zur Bohrung 9 "nach innen hin" konkav ausgebildet ist, ist der Abstand zwischen der Bohrung 9 und der Seitenfläche 8 im mittleren Bereich der Seitenfläche 8 am kleinsten. Die konkave Ausgestaltet bietet auch einen optischen Vorteil, da Licht gebrochen wird und damit die Oberflächen gleichmäßig mit weichem Kontrast erscheinen.As in Fig. 3 can be seen, the lamellae 3 - depending on the number of connecting ropes 10 - at least once or repeatedly penetrated by holes 9, which preferably extend between the base 6 and the inclined surface 7. Since the side surface 8 to the bore 9 "concave inward" is formed, the distance between the bore 9 and the side surface 8 in the central region of the side surface 8 is the smallest. The concave design also provides an optical advantage in that light is refracted and thus the surfaces appear evenly with soft contrast.

Diese Ausgestaltung ermöglicht es, die Lamellen 3 auf überraschend einfache Weise an Seilen, insbesondere Drahtseilen 10 (Fig. 4), welche die Bohrungen 9 durchsetzen beabstandet zueinander festzulegen, indem einfach vorzugsweise im mittleren Bereich der Seitenfläche 8 mit konkaver Kontur eine Prägung 11 eingebracht wird, welche Material aus der Seitenfläche 8 der Lamelle gegen das Seil 10 drückt. Derart ist die Lamelle 3 in einfacher Weise ohne zusätzliches Hilfsmittel auf dem Seil 10 gehalten, ohne dass die Optik des Seils 10 beeinträchtigt wird. Die Kosten der Herstellung sind zudem minimal, da keine zusätzlichen Mittel zur Fixierung vorzusehen sind.This configuration makes it possible, in a surprisingly simple manner, for the lamellae 3 on ropes, in particular wire ropes 10 (FIG. Fig. 4 ), which enforce the holes 9 spaced set to each other by simply preferably in the central region of the side surface 8 with concave contour embossing 11 is introduced, which presses material from the side surface 8 of the blade against the cable 10. In this way, the blade 3 is held in a simple manner without additional aids on the rope 10, without the appearance of the rope 10 is impaired. The cost of manufacturing are also minimal, since no additional means for fixing are provided.

Es empfiehlt sich der Einsatz eines aus mehreren Einzelteilen geschlagenen Stahlseils, da hier die Prägung aufgrund der hohen Haftreibung besonders sicher hält.It is advisable to use a beaten from several parts steel cable, since the embossing keeps particularly safe due to the high static friction.

Eine alternative Ausgestaltung der Erfindung offenbart Fig. 5.An alternative embodiment of the invention disclosed Fig. 5 ,

Danach weist die Bohrung 9 zur Basis 12 hin einen größeren Durchmesser auf als zur Schrägfläche 7 hin. Dies kann beispielsweise dadurch realisiert werden, dass die Bohrung 9 zur Basis 6 hin gestuft ausgebildet ist, so dass ein unterer Bohrungsbereich 12 ausgebildet wird, der einen sacklochartigen Kragen 17 ausbildet.Thereafter, the bore 9 to the base 12 toward a larger diameter than the inclined surface 7 out. This can be realized, for example, in that the bore 9 is stepped towards the base 6, so that a lower bore region 12 is formed, which forms a blind hole-like collar 17.

Um die Lamelle 3 auf dem Drahtseil 10 an einem definierten Ort zu halten, wird dieses mit einem kurzen Haltelement 13, z.B. einer zusammengepressten und auf dem Drahtseil 10 festgelegten Hülse, versehen, die derart ausgestaltet ist, dass sie vollständig im Bohrungsbereich 12 unterbringbar ist, ohne dass sie nach außen aus der Bohrung vorsteht. Damit ist die Hülse 13 von außen für den Betrachter im Wesentlichen nicht sichtbar. Die Hülse 13 kann klemmend auf dem Seil 10 festgelegt sein. Das Haltelement kann klemmend in der Bohrung festgelegt sein, so dass die Lamellen 3 vertikal in beide Richtungen gehalten sind.In order to hold the blade 3 on the wire rope 10 at a defined location, it is provided with a short retaining element 13, e.g. a compressed and fixed to the wire 10 sleeve, provided, which is designed such that it is completely accommodated in the bore region 12, without protruding outwardly from the bore. Thus, the sleeve 13 is not visible from the outside for the viewer substantially. The sleeve 13 may be fixed by clamping on the cable 10. The holding element may be clamped in the bore, so that the lamellae 3 are held vertically in both directions.

Derart wird zwar wiederum ein Halteelement wie eine Hülse 13 dazu benötigt, um die Lamellen 3 auf dem Drahtseil definiert voneinander zu beabstanden.In this way, a holding element such as a sleeve 13 is again required to space the lamellae 3 defined on the wire rope from each other.

Von außen ist das Halteelement 13 aber für den Bertachter von der Seite aus nicht sichtbar, so dass die filigrane Optik einer Drahtseilverbindung nicht behindert wird. Nicht einmal eine Prägung ist sichtbar, so dass der optische Eindruck hier besonders vorteilhaft ist.From the outside, however, the holding element 13 is not visible to the viewer from the side, so that the filigree appearance of a wire rope connection is not hindered. Not even an embossment is visible, so that the visual impression is particularly advantageous here.

Fig. 7 veranschaulicht, dass es erfindungsgemäß auch auf einfache Weise möglich ist, den Abstand der Lamellen 3 innerhalb eines Rollladens 3 verschieden zu wählen. So kann der Abstand 14 zwischen zwei Lamellen 3 nach Art der Fig. a, b, c verschieden groß sein, um z.B. den besonderen Anforderungen in einem Raum gerecht zu werden, wo z.B. in verschiedenen Raumhöhen Licht- bzw. Sonnenstrahlen 15 aus verschiedenen Einfallswinkelbereichen (Einfallswinkel 16) am direkten Lichteinfall gehindert werden soll. Fig. 7 illustrates that according to the invention it is also possible in a simple manner to choose the distance of the slats 3 within a roller shutter 3 different. Thus, the distance 14 between two lamellae 3 in the manner of Fig. A, b, c be different in size, for example, to cope with the special requirements in a room where, for example, in different room heights light or sun rays 15 from different angles of incidence ( Angle of incidence 16) should be prevented from direct light.
