The pivotable door is mounted about a vertical axis by pivot bearings, which are secured to the lower or upper portion of the fixed part of the pivot door, said bearings have a locking device for the closed and open position. The detent position is adjusted by a locking member rotatably mounted about the pivot axis. The latching part has a wedge-shaped circumferential groove, engage in the locking screws for fixing against a pivoting part receiving.

The GB 2 276 204 A concerns an adjustable fitting for swing doors. The wall-side fitting part has a recess for receiving the door-side fitting part, so that a common pivot axis is formed by bores of the two fitting parts, A bearing sleeve of the door-side fitting part has an eccentrically arranged aperture which through a fitting passing through the axis in a plane perpendicular to Swivel axis is rotatable. The position of the sleeve can be detected by a movable jaw.

In the EP 2 447 453 A1 an adjustable fitting for a swing door of a shower is disclosed. The fitting has latching means to fix the door in certain positions. For adjusting the locking means relative to each other, a worm gear is provided with an external toothing and a worm.

The present invention has for its object to provide a fitting and a shower enclosure with such a fitting, wherein a secure fixing of an abutment piece whose rotational position is adjustable for adjusting the pivotal position of the pivotal movement of the fitting superimposed axial movement is achieved.

The above object is achieved by a fitting according to claim 1. Advantageous developments are the subject of the dependent claims.

The present invention is concerned with a fitting, in particular a hinge, for a pane or door, in particular a shower enclosure, wherein the fitting has a fitting part which can be connected to the pane or door. The fitting part forms in particular a preferably at least substantially smooth or interruption-free contact surface for the pane or door. The fitting part is arranged in particular on a flat side, in particular on the outside, of the pane or door.

According to the present invention, the fitting has a counter bearing with an outer knurling or toothing for form-locking fixing of the rotational position of the counter bearing piece for adjusting the pivot position of the pivotal movement of the fitting superimposed on axial movement. This allows a very simple implementation. In particular, very easily by means of a locking device, a positive fixing of the pivotal position of the pivotal movement of the fitting superimposed axial movement take place.

According to one aspect, the fitting part is hollow. This allows a material-saving and / or cost-effective design, in particular when the fitting part is cast or at least substantially formed by a casting.

According to a further aspect, the fitting part has a base body and a cover, which is resting thereon and has been produced separately. This allows optimized production, in particular when the fitting part or its base body is hollow and / or provided with ribs or webs or reinforced.

Particularly preferably, the cover is firmly connected to the base body and / or inserted into the base body. Thus, a high stability and resilience of the fitting and thus the fitting and thus the fitting and a secure mounting of the disc or door can be achieved.

According to another aspect, the fitting on a sealing element which is associated with an edge of the disc or door, in particular for receiving the same is formed, and / or which is provided with at least one sealing strip. This allows an improvement of the edge-side storage and / or an improved seal.

The sealing element allows in particular a seal between the door or disc on the one hand and the fitting part or the disc or door preferably pivotally holding holding part on the other. Particularly preferably, the sealing strip of the sealing element bears against the holding part.

The sealing element is preferably produced separately from the fitting part, in particular made of plastic or the like.

Fig, 1 shows a schematic side view of a proposed shower enclosure 1 with a disc or door 2, in particular made of glass. The disc 2 may also consist of another similar, in particular transparent material. In principle, the pane 2 can also be another wall or door or the like. The term "shower enclosure" is therefore preferably to be understood in a very general sense, so that other wall partitions, partitions or the like are included.

In the illustrated example, the disc 2 is preferably pivotable. It is therefore in particular a hinged door.

The shower enclosure 1 has at least one fitting 2 associated with the window 2.

The fitting 3 is used here for mounting or storage, in particular pivotal mounting of the disc 2, for example on an associated wall 4, as in Fig. 1 indicated. The wall 4 provided in the illustration example is preferably a room wall or other stationary wall. However, this may also be another partition, disc or the like.

Fig. 2 shows a non-inventive fitting 3 in a perspective view, ie without disc 2 and without wall. 4

The fitting 3 has a holding part 5, which can be fastened in particular on the wall side, and a fitting part 6 assigned to the window 2. The two parts 5 and 6 are preferably hinged together or connectable. In particular, the holding part 5 holds the fitting part 6 pivotable about a pivot axis 7. The pivot axis 7 runs in particular at least substantially vertically, as in Fig. 1 indicated.

In the illustrated example, the fitting 3 is arranged in a lower corner region of the pane 2. In particular, the fitting 3 holds the disc 2 in this lower corner area. However, the fitting 3 can in principle also be arranged at other positions. In particular, the disc 2 is preferably held or mounted by the fitting 3 and at least one additional fitting (not shown). The additional fitting is preferably similar or optionally at least substantially identical in construction to the fitting 3. Particularly preferably, the additional fitting holds the disc 2 in an upper corner area (not shown).

The fitting 6 is preferably formed at least in a mounting portion 6a at least substantially plate-like, flat and / or flap-like. The attachment portion 6a serves to abut against a flat side of the disc 2. In the illustration according to Fig. 1 he is at least substantially behind the disc 2 arranged.

The fitting 6 or its attachment portion 6a is preferably arranged on the outside of the shower enclosure 1 or disc 2.

The fitting part 6 further has a connection region 6b, which preferably adjoins the attachment region 6a laterally and / or is formed integrally therewith. The connecting portion 6b serves alternatively or additionally preferably also a rotation lock of the fitting 3 or fitting 6 on the disc 2 and / or a holder of the disc 2, in particular in the region of an edge 2a .

The fitting 3 or the fitting part 6 or the fastening area 6a is preferably connected to the window 2 by means of a screw connection. The screw connection is in Fig. 2 not shown, but only by way of example in a very schematic section according to Fig. 7 , This illustrates that the fitting 3 or its fitting 6 or mounting portion 6a, for example, by means of a connecting element 8 connected to the disc 2, in particular braced, is. Preferably, the connecting element 8 engages in a recess or opening 9 of the disc 2 or passes through it.

For example, the connecting element 8 or a head element of the connecting element 8 on the disc 2 or a conical portion of the opening 9 or the like attack and so connect the fitting part 6 with the disc 2, in particular these clamp against each other. However, other constructive solutions are possible here.

Fig. 1 shows for illustrative reasons not the connecting element 8, which is preferably covered by a diaphragm or the like, which covers in particular flush or smooth the opening 9.

Fig. 3 shows a schematic, exploded view of a non-inventive construction of the fitting 3, wherein the connecting element 8 is omitted.

The fitting 6 or the attachment portion 6a is preferably hollow, as in Fig. 3 indicated.

The fitting part 6 preferably has a main body 10 forming in particular the fastening area 6a and a cover 11 assigned to the main body 10. The cover 11 is preferably produced separately and / or plate-like or flat or planar.

The main body 10 is in particular reinforced with ribs or webs 12, particularly preferably in the manner of a grid, in particular on the side or inside facing the pane 2.

The cover 11 preferably covers at least one cavity formed in the base body 10, more preferably a plurality of cavities formed in the base body 10. The cavities are here formed by the spaces between the ribs or webs 12. As a result, the fitting 6 is hollow in the manner proposed. However, other constructive solutions are possible.

On the outside of the main body 10 and the fitting 6 is at least substantially smooth and / or formed without breakage.

The fitting part 6 or, the base body 10 is preferably cast or a casting, in particular made of zinc die-cast.

The connecting region 6b is preferably integrally formed on the attachment region 6a or, the base body 10 or formed by this.

The main body 10 is preferably at least substantially or only in the region of a disc 2 associated or facing contact surface 13 of the fitting part 6 hollow and / or provided with the ribs or webs 12 or reinforced.

Particularly preferably, the cover 11 forms at least substantially or exclusively the contact surface 13.

The main body 10 has at least largely on its outside at least a wall thickness of at most 2.5 mm, in particular substantially 2.0 mm or less on. This is a particularly smooth design of the outside conducive.

The cover 11 is preferably fixedly connected to the base body 10, in particular screwed. For this purpose, the cover 11 in the illustrated embodiment preferably has a mounting opening 11a, through which a screw, not shown in the fitting 6 and the mounting portion 6a, in particular in the base body 10, and there in a BefeStigungsöffnung 10a is screwed. Particularly preferably, the cover 11 is fastened to the base body 10 only with a single screw or other connecting means.

The cover 11 is preferably insertable into the base body 10 and / or held or gripped by the base body 10 at the edge. Particularly preferably, the base body 10 has an at least substantially circumferential and / or projecting edge 10b, which projects with respect to the ribs or webs 12 and / or a circumferential shoulder or the like and / or forms a lateral boundary or border of the cover 11. The edge 10b is in Fig. 3 merely hinted.

The edge 10b, the cover 11 in particular set against rotation on the base body 10.

The fragmentary schematic representation of a transition region of the base body 10 to cover 11 according to Fig. 9 illustrates that the edge 10b may project beyond the cover 11 and the support surface 13 as needed.

The term "bearing surface" is to be understood in particular a plane or smooth surface, which enables a uniform application or clamping against a flat side of the disc 2 and / or is designed largely torsionally stiff.

The base body 10 or edge 10b may partially, in particular on one of the attachment opening 10a remote lateral side form an undercut 10c or other engagement for the cover 11 to achieve a particular positive fixing of the cover 11 in this area. In the assembled state, the cover 11 is thereby secured or held against lifting off transversely to its surface extension from the base body 10 in the region of the undercut 10c or other engagement. Accordingly, in particular, only a single screw or other connection or fastening of the cover 11 is sufficient, in particular in a region largely remote from the engagement or rear grip 10c, particularly preferably close to the opposite transverse side (in the illustration example according to FIG Fig. 3 in the vicinity of the upper transverse side or horizontal edge of the fitting 6 or body 10. However, other constructive solutions are possible.

In the illustrated example, the rear grip 10c is formed by a corresponding oblique undercut 10c of the edge 10b and a corresponding beveled configuration of the associated edge region of the cover 11. However, other constructive solutions are possible. For example, a nose or other protrusion projecting, which engages in a corresponding recess of the rim 10b or body 10 or the like.

Between the fitting 6 and mounting portion 6a and the cover 11 and contact surface 13 on the one hand and the disc 2 and its flat side On the other hand, preferably an intermediate bearing element 14 is arranged in particular soft or elastic material. Thus, an excessively high point load of the glass or the disk 2 is avoided by the preferably metallic cover 11. Particularly preferably, the intermediate bearing element 14 is secured by the edge 10b protruding beyond the bearing surface 13 or cover 11 on the fitting part 6 or fastening area 6a or on the cover 11 or bearing surface 13, as in FIG Fig. 9 indicated schematically.

The cover 11 covers in particular an open side, in particular flat side, of the main body 10.

Out Fig. 1 to 3 it can be seen that the fitting 3 not according to the invention or the fitting part 6, in particular the fastening area 6a, forms a fastening opening 6c for the connecting element 8. The attachment opening 6c is in particular provided with a thread and / or formed as a blind hole or blind bore into which the connecting element 8 is preferably screwed. The cover 11 and the intermediate bearing element 14 are provided with corresponding recesses or openings, so that the connecting element 8 can pass through them. However, in principle, other constructive solutions are possible.

In the assembled state, the optional intermediate bearing element 14 between the contact surface 13 and the surface or flat side of the disc 2 is clamped or compressed. Thus, a sufficient or at least largely rotationally fixed connection of the fitting part or fastening region 6a with the disk 2 can be achieved. However, other constructive solutions are possible.

The fitting 3 preferably has a sealing element 15, which is produced in particular separately from the fitting part 6 or main body 10. The sealing element 15 is in particular made of plastic or another suitable, preferably elastic material.

The sealing element 15 is preferably designed to receive an edge 2a of the disc 2. In particular, the sealing element 15 is provided for this purpose with a preferably at least substantially U-shaped receiving area 15a or at least substantially U-shaped, particularly preferably to include the male edge 2a accordingly, as in Fig. 7 indicated schematically.

The disk 2 is preferably notched in the region of the fitting 3 or fitting part 6, the course of the edge 2a is in Fig. 1 indicated by dashed lines as an example. The sealing element 15 or its receiving area 15a is preferably designed to receive this notched area, in particular this angled edge area, and / or for sealing in this area.

The sealing element 15 is preferably elongated or profile-like, with a particular U-shaped cross section.

The sealing element 15 is preferably angled, in particular following the course of the edge 2a or notching the disc 2 following.

The fitting 3 or the fitting part 6, in particular the connecting region 6b and / or the base body 10, preferably has a receiving region 6d for at least partially receiving the sealing element 15. The receiving region 6d is preferably at least substantially U-shaped and / or provided with a recess or receiving opening or the like adapted to the sealing element 15. The receiving area 6d is, for example, in FIG Fig. 3 recognizable.

The sealing element 15 is preferably provided with at least one sealing strip 15b, in the illustrated embodiment with two spaced and in particular parallel sealing strips 15b, as in Fig. 8 schematically indicated that a partial enlargement of Fig. 7 represents.

The sealing strips 15b preferably run along the edge 2a and / or in the plane of the pane and / or parallel to the pivot axis 7.

The sealing element 15 seals in particular via the sealing strip (s) 15b to the holding part 5 and / or between the disc 2 and the holding part 5a. Particularly preferably, the sealing element 15 bears in particular sealingly against at least one sealing strip 15 b on the holding part 5.

Since the disc 2 during opening and closing and thus the seal 15 and sealing strip 15b perform a pivoting movement, the holding part 5 preferably has a correspondingly rounded surface or outer contour, so that a continuous system or seal, in particular by means of a sealing strip 15b, is possible ,

The holding part 5 is preferably formed in horizontal section at least substantially U-shaped and in the side view at least substantially rectangular. However, other constructive or creative solutions are possible.

The pivot axis 7 preferably extends at least substantially through the center of the curvature of the U-shape.

The sealing strips 15b are preferably bead-like, web-like or lip-shaped. The sealing strips 15b are formed as required elastically deformable.

In the illustrated example, two sealing strips 15b are provided in particular for the purpose of allowing the sealing element 15 to be used optionally for right and left-hand fittings 3. However, only one sealing strip 15b is required for the respective fitting 3 or the sealing function. However, two or more sealing strips 15b can be arranged very close to each other in order to achieve a double or improved sealing.

In the illustrated example, the sealing element 15 preferably extends at least substantially over the entire axial extent of the fitting part 6 and / or beyond the holding part 5 into the connection area 6b, which adjoins the holding part 5 in particular axially. However, other constructive solutions or arrangements are possible.

Due to the preferably angled shape or another shape of the sealing element 15, the sealing element 15 is preferably held or held in a form-fitting manner on the fitting 3, in particular on the fitting part 6, particularly preferably on the connecting area 6b or receiving area 6d.

Alternatively or additionally, the sealing element 15 may also be firmly and / or clamped or otherwise connected, for example by gluing, to the pane 2 or its edge 2a.

The non-inventive fitting 3, in particular its fitting 6, has in the illustrated embodiment, a bearing sleeve 16 with a front-side sliding bearing surface, which is at least partially inclined to the pivot axis 7, on.

The bearing sleeve 16 cooperates with a counter-bearing piece 17, which is preferably also provided with an end-side slide bearing surface, which is preferably at least bercichsweise inclined to the pivot axis 7. By rotating the bearing sleeve 16 relative to the counter bearing piece 17, the pivoting movement of the disc 2 or the fitting 3 can be superimposed on an axial movement, in particular a defined raising and lowering of the disc 2 or of the fitting part 6 can be achieved. The bearing sleeve 16 is therefore also referred to as a locking sleeve. The bearing sleeve 16 and the counter-bearing piece 17 form a lifting device to lift the fitting 6 and the disc 2 in response to the pivot position.

The bearing sleeve 16 is preferably non-rotatably connected or connectable to the fitting 6 or connecting portion 6b, in particular inserted or used in a bearing eye or the like formed. The bearing sleeve 16 may be made of metal or plastic or other suitable material.

The bearing sleeve 16 or relevant for the generation of the axial movement end-side sliding bearing surface may, if necessary, also integrally formed with the fitting part 6 or it or be formed thereof.

In the illustrated embodiment, the bearing sleeve 16 preferably extends into the holding part 5, in particular into a bearing opening or bearing hole formed therefrom. The counter-bearing piece 17 is accordingly preferably arranged or formed in the holding part 5 in the illustrated example.

In the illustrated example, the counter-bearing piece 17 is preferably adjustable in the axial direction. However, alternatively or additionally, the bearing sleeve 16 may be axially adjustable.

In the illustrated embodiment, the fitting 6 has a bearing pin 18, which passes through the preferably at least substantially annular abutment piece 17 and is provided with an external thread, which engages with an internal thread of the inner bearing piece 17 such that by turning the bearing pin 18, the counter bearing piece 17 in its axial position adjustable and thus the fitting part 6 and the disc 2 are adjustable in height.

The bearing pin 18 is preferably fixable in its rotational position, in the illustrated example, for example, by an axially adjustable fixing screw 19, in accordance with the schematic vertical section Fig. 4 only hinted at.

The bearing pin 18 preferably extends into the bearing sleeve 16 and / or the fitting part 6 or the connection area 6b or the bearing eyelet or the like formed therefrom.

The pivotal position of the pivotal movement superimposed axial movement is preferably adjustable or adjustable. For this purpose, the fitting 3 preferably has an adjusting means, in particular a correspondingly adjustable adjusting lever 20. In the illustrated example, the adjusting lever 20 is preferably connected to the counter-bearing piece 17 or formed by this or formed thereon. However, other constructive solutions are possible.

For adjusting or adjusting the pivotal position of the axial movement, the counter bearing piece 17 is rotatable or pivotable about a certain angular range, for example ± 5 ° or ± 10 °, in particular about the pivot axis 7. The counter bearing piece 16 can also be fixed in the respective pivot position fixable.

The adjusting lever 20 preferably extends radially from the counter-bearing piece 17 outwards, in particular thus transversely to the pivot axis 7 and / or preferably away from the pane 2 or the fastening area 6a or towards the wall 4. However, other orientations are possible in principle.

The holding part 5 is preferably formed on one side, here the fastening or wall side, open.

The non-inventive fitting 3 is preferably designed such that the pivotal position of the actuating lever 20 exclusively by an actuating side of the fitting 3, in particular from a flat side or inside of the holding part 5, is positively adjustable in both pivot directions.

In particular, the adjusting lever 20 forms an adjusting means for adjusting or adjusting the pivoting position of the superposable axial movement or of the counter bearing piece 17.

Preferably, the fitting 3 has a the adjusting means or lever 20 associated with deflection and / or an associated lever mechanism 21. The lever mechanism 21 has in the illustrated example, a lever-like or segment-like or crescent-shaped actuator 21 a and optionally an associated bearing screw 21 b,

Fig. 4 shows the not inventive lever mechanism 21 in the installed state. In this case, the actuator 21a is rotatably supported by the positional screw 21b about an axis horizontally extending in the plane of the drawing. The bearing axis preferably extends at least substantially parallel to the radial extent of the actuating lever 20 and / or perpendicular to the pivot axis 7.

Fig. 5 shows the non-inventive fitting 3 from the open side of the holding part 5, ie transversely to Fig. 4 in unassembled condition. The left side represents here the operating side or inside of the fitting 3 or holding part 5, starting from which the pivoting position of the axial movement or the adjusting means or the adjusting lever 20 is adjustable or adjustable. In the illustrated example, the adjustment or adjustment by two arranged on the actuating side adjusting openings 23, in particular guided therein adjusting screws 22, which takes place in Fig. 5 and in the partial enlargement according to Fig. 6 are shown. An adjusting screw 22 preferably acts directly on one side of the actuating means or adjusting lever 20. The other adjusting screw 22 preferably acts via a deflection or the lever mechanism 21 on the other side of the actuating means or adjusting lever 20. The adjusting means or the adjusting lever 20 is thereby positively fixed in both pivot directions or from both sides in its respective pivot position. By correspondingly opposite adjustment of the screws 22 is the

Swivel position of the actuating means or the adjusting lever 20 and thus the rotational position or pivotal position of the counter-bearing piece 17 adjustable and fixable.

In Fig. 1 to 3 the adjusting openings 23 are indicated for the screws 22.

For wall-side attachment or other attachment, the fitting 3 preferably has a fastening element 24, which in the schematic representation according to Fig. 10 separated from its associated holding part 5 is shown.

The fastening element 24 is preferably fastened to the wall 4 or the like, in particular screwed and for this purpose preferably has corresponding attachment openings, for example, a horizontal and a vertical slot on.

The fastening element 24 can be connected to the holding part 5 or vice versa.

In particular, the holding part 5 can be placed on the fastening element 24 after attachment of the fastening element 24 and can be connected thereto. In the illustrated example, the holding part 5 is particularly preferably by means of at least one vertical fastening screw 5 a (as in Fig. 3 to 6 and 10 indicated) and / or by means of at least one horizontal fastening screw (which is not shown here, but only the attachment opening 5b in Fig. 1 to 3 and 10 is indicated) connectable to the fastening element 24. However, other constructive solutions are possible.

It should be noted that Fig. 10 shows the non-inventive fitting 3 without intermediate element 14, accordingly, here the attachment opening 11 a in the cover 11 and in the support surface 13 can be seen. Next shows the Fig. 10 the fitting 3 or the fitting 6 with screwed connection element 8,

Hereinafter, further embodiments of the fitting 3 are explained in more detail with reference to the other figures, but this is primarily only on significant differences from those already described, not inventive

Embodiment and described, non-inventive embodiments variant discussed in more detail. The previous remarks and explanations therefore apply in particular corresponding or supplementary, even if a repeated description weggelas is sen. Furthermore, individual aspects and features of the various embodiments can also be arbitrarily combined with one another, but can also be implemented independently of one another. Fig. 11 shows a schematic, exploded view of a modified, not inventive

Embodiment of the fitting 3 or holding part 5. Here, another adjusting means is provided as previously described. In particular, the actuating means has two actuating devices 25, which are preferably of identical construction and / or preferably act on opposite sides of the actuating lever 20 directly.

The adjusting devices 25 are preferably designed to be pivotable or rotatable and / or each provided with a particular eccentrically arranged contact or clamping surface or with a cam or the like, which is against an associated side of the control lever 20 adjustable, tensioned and / or clamped. In particular, the adjusting devices 25 are rotatable by means of a tool, not shown, to clamp or hiring the respective contact surface or cam against the actuating lever 20, wherein the actuating lever 20 between the two actuating devices 25 and their contact surfaces or cams held positively and thereby determined in its pivotal position is or can be, whereby a corresponding determination or adjustment of the counter-bearing piece 17 and the pivot position of the pivotal movement of the fitting 6 superimposed axial movement is achievable.

The adjusting devices 25 are preferably integrally formed and / or in particular for a self-locking sufficiently stiff in the fitting 3 or holding part 5 or the like stored. However, other constructive solutions are possible.

The adjusting devices 25 are preferably adjustable or adjustable from a common operating side, in particular here from one axial side and / or upper side or underside of the fitting 3 or holding part 5.

Particularly preferred are the adjusting devices 25 in corresponding adjusting openings 23 (these are in Fig. 11 not shown) of the fitting 3 or holding partly 5 inserted or installed. However, other constructive solutions are possible.

Preferably, when assembled fitting 3, such as in Fig. 10 represented, the adjusting means 25 or adjusting openings 23 by the at least partial overlap of the holding part 5 and the fitting part 6, here covered by the connecting portion 6b such that an operation or adjustment or adjustment is not possible. However, other constructive solutions are possible.

It should be noted that the adjusting means for adjusting the pivot position of the pivotal movement of the fitting 6 superimposed or superimposable axial movement according to the present invention can cause an adjustment or adjustment of the pivot position or possibly even a determination of the pivot position. For example, the pivotal position can be initially adjusted by the fact that the actuating means is released and the door or window 2 associated with the fitting 3

in the desired pivot position (usually with axially lowered door or disc 2) is brought. Subsequently, the adjusting means for determining this pivotal position, for example by fixing the pivotal position of the actuating lever 20 and / or by fixing the rotational position of the counter-bearing piece 17, are fixed. In this case, the adjusting means is (only) a detecting means and not an (active) adjusting means.
