Definitions

  • the invention relates to a retaining device for gatherable blinds and a method for rapid shirring and blocking of such blinds in a safety position according to the preamble of claims 1 and 8.
  • Venetian blinds are usually used as sun and glare protection for building recesses. They can be arranged on the inside or on the outside of windows or doors, and their position within the building recess and optionally the angle of inclination of the slats, depending on the design motor or alternatively manually. be adjusted by means of a crank or by means of drawstrings.
  • a lower end rail is formed at the lower edge of a Venetian blind. When opening the blind, this lower end rail is pulled up, the curtain is gathered stacked on the lower end rail. In the open position, the curtain is parked in a housing or behind an aperture arranged at the top of the building recess.
  • blinds In the event of a fire, blinds must be able to be opened quickly and permanently for possible escape routes.
  • conventional blinds solutions are known in which a store eg by means of an emergency hand crank or through Actuation of a triggering device for an elevator spring can be pulled up.
  • the high cost and / or the long duration for booting up the store or searching for the triggering means may prove to be disadvantages.
  • the US2248775A discloses a slat blind in which depressions are formed at heels at regular intervals on the insides of the two lateral guide rails.
  • At the bottom of the lower support rail projecting cams project on both narrow sides, which are connected via rods with actuating buttons on a centrally arranged on the lower support rail handle.
  • the actuating buttons and thus also the locking cams are pressed by the force of a spring arranged between the gripping buttons to the outside.
  • an operator To push or lower the curtain, an operator must first squeeze the two control buttons against the spring force. Only then can the support rail be moved vertically. Guided unhindered displacement of the mounting rail along the guide rails only possible if the locking cams are actively retracted first.
  • this object is achieved in that at the lower end rail fastening means and in the upper region of the building recess with the fastening means corresponding retaining means are formed, which allow for manually pushing the lower end rail on the upper end position of the open position, a fixation of the lower end rail in a safety position ,
  • the holding means comprise on the two end faces of the lower end rail outstanding bolts and the retaining means on the two lateral guide rails fastened sheet metal hooks.
  • Retainers designed in this manner are inexpensive and can be installed with relatively little effort both on existing and new blinds.
  • the laterally outstanding bolts can be positively inserted into the support rings formed by the sheet metal hooks, so that the lower end rail and stacked thereon lamellae solely due to their Gravity persist in this situation.
  • the hooks preferably each have two legs, one of these legs is preferably screwed with two screws against rotation on the front or rear side of the respective guide rail, and the other at an acute angle to the first leg front or rear upwards.
  • This second leg may be formed, for example, elastically resilient, so that it is elastically deformed during the poking of the lower end rail by the force exerted by the respective bolt force and then springs back into its original position.
  • the range of motion of the lower end rail for forward and backward movements transverse to the guide rails may be so large that the lower end rail is pushed forward when pushed forward or back, when the bolts are pressed from below against the protruding leg outer sides
  • the guide pins of the lower end rail may be formed elastically to allow the swinging of the lower end rail forward.
  • Canceling or tearing out of the guide pins or jumping out of the guide rails can be taken into account, since a pushing up of the curtain in the safety position only exceptionally in an emergency situation is required.
  • the materials of the restraint device are preferably heat-resistant, so that the lower end rail remains in its safety position even in the case of high heat.
  • the curtain can be manually gathered from the bottom up, as would be done intuitively in an emergency. It is sufficient to lift the lower end rail or end plate slightly above the normal upper end position, so that the curtain then remains permanently up in the safety position. If the curtain at a later date to be brought back to the original position or released from the safety position, it is sufficient to slightly raise the lower end rail, then to swing forward or with appropriate orientation of the sheet metal hooks back and then lower again, where the bolts overcome the retaining means or the obstacle of the sheet metal hooks.
  • retaining means may also be attached to parts of the building recess or other elements of the Venetian blind fixedly or immovably relative to the guide rails, ie for example on a panel of the building recess or on a housing of an elevator device arranged above the curtain.
  • the fastening means are arranged on the lower end rail and adapted to the corresponding retaining means, that preferably a positive, releasable connection with these retaining means in the safety position is possible.
  • the invention also includes differently designed, in particular non-positive connections.
  • FIG. 1 shows a slat blind, called Store 1 for short, in its normal open position, wherein only the top four of the blinds 5 of the curtain, which are gathered to form a stack and rest on a lower end rail 3, are shown.
  • Store 1 On both end faces of at least a portion of the slats 5 and the end rail 3 protrude guide pins 7.
  • vertically aligned guide rails 9 are generally mounted on two opposing soffits, which delimit a preferably C-shaped in cross-section guide channel and along a vertical guide groove 11 for hanging with the slats 5 are open.
  • the guide pins 7 protrude into the respective adjacent guide groove 11, so that the lower end rail 3 and the slats 5 are guided guided in the vertical direction.
  • the lower end rail 3 may for example be made in one piece or - as shown - include a bottom profile made of aluminum or other dimensionally stable material and a blade 5, which is convexly curved like the other slats 5.
  • the invention also encompasses hangings with other slat shapes or with any gatherable hangings and a lower end rail 3.
  • these bolts 13 may be made of steel, aluminum or a heat-resistant plastic and a Total length of, for example, about 50 to 60mm.
  • the bolts 13 are formed, for example, cylindrical with a diameter of about 10mm and project beyond the respective end faces by about 25mm. Alternatively, the bolts 13 could also have a different cross-sectional shape.
  • sheet metal hooks 15 As a retaining device with two at an acute angle ⁇ , for example, about 35 ° inclined to each other, a V-shaped groove or recording forming legs attached, preferably one of these legs by means of two screws or rivets in the End region of the respective guide rail 9 is held.
  • the retaining means or the lower edge of the sheet metal hook 15 is based on the vertical position of the underside of the lower end rail 3 in its upper end position or in the open position of the curtain by a distance H1 increases attached to guide rail 9.
  • the upper edge of the front leg of the sheet metal hook 15 is arranged elevated with respect to the lower edge by a further distance H2.
  • the bolt 13 is offset with respect to the axis of the guide pins 7 on the lower end rail 5 by a distance S1 forward on the end rail 5, wherein this distance S1 is matched to the position of the sheet metal hook 15 that the bolt 13 when bumping the end rail 5 along the guide rails 9 on the outside of the front leg of the sheet metal hook 15 is present.
  • this distance S1 is matched to the position of the sheet metal hook 15 that the bolt 13 when bumping the end rail 5 along the guide rails 9 on the outside of the front leg of the sheet metal hook 15 is present.
  • the front legs of the sheet metal hooks elastically spring back into their original rest position, and / or the end rail 5 pivots back, so that the bolts 13 during the subsequent lowering or releasing of the end rail 5 are absorbed due to the force of gravity in the receiving means of the retaining means and held permanently in this safety position.
  • the retaining device and / or the fastening means corresponding thereto may also be formed in a different manner.
