Description

The invention relates to a window, a door or the like with a fixed enclosure and a movable relative to the fixed enclosure between a closed position and at least one open position wings.

The wings of windows or doors often have a relatively high mass, which is abruptly decelerated when closing the wing when the wing strikes against the fixed enclosure. The closing of a grand piano is therefore often unpleasantly loud. In particular, when a wing is to be closed from a Kippöffnungsstellung, it is often difficult to decelerate the wing in time before it strikes against the fixed enclosure, so that there is a significant noise. In addition, open wings, especially tilted wings, often hit the fixed enclosure in a gust of wind.

From the EP 2 299 041 A2 is a damper device for movable furniture parts with a fixable on a furniture body housing and with a known in the housing in a recess cylinder known. In the housing, a piston is mounted damping effect slidably. It forms a stop for a movable furniture part.

Object of the present invention is to provide a window or a door in which or a wing can be closed quietly.

This object is achieved by a window, a door or the like with a fixed enclosure and a movable relative to the enclosure between a closed position and at least one open position wings, wherein a arranged on the fixed enclosure or the wing damper device for damping a closing movement of the wing is provided , The damper device is to be arranged in such a way that before wing and fixed enclosure touch and there is a noise, the wing first strikes the damper device when it is arranged on the fixed enclosure or the damper device first comes into contact with the fixed enclosure, when the damper device is arranged on the wing. By the damper device while the movement of the wing is slowed down, so that it does not abruptly against the fixed enclosure, which is preferably designed as a frame beats. Thereby, the noise when closing the sash of a window or a door or the like can be significantly reduced.

According to a preferred embodiment, the damper device may comprise a damping element, which is mounted slidably effective damping in a cylinder or a sleeve. For example, the damping element may be formed as a piston which is arranged in a cylinder filled with liquid, for example oil, or gas. alternative the damping element can be arranged in a sleeve and be supported by an elastic part on the sleeve, in particular at the bottom of the sleeve. The damper device may for example be arranged in a bore of the fixed enclosure or the wing.

Alternatively or additionally, it may be provided that the damper device comprises a damping element which is displaceable against a restoring force. For example, may be arranged in the sleeve, a spring element on which the damping element is supported. By the spring element can be done for a damping of the closing movement. On the other hand, when opening the wing, the damping element can be displaced by the spring element, so that it can dampen the closing movement when the wing is closed. Also in connection with a damping element, which is movable in a liquid-filled cylinder, it is advantageous if a return element is provided, which displaces the damping element during an opening movement of the wing.

While, as mentioned above, one possibility is to provide a bore on the fixed skirt or wing in which the damper device is located, it is advantageous to provide a housing in or on which the damper element is disposed. Thus, no hole must be placed in the fixed enclosure or the wing. In this case, the cylinder or the sleeve can be arranged in or on the housing and the damping element can in turn be accommodated in the cylinder or the sleeve. The housing therefore preferably has a recess in which the cylinder or the sleeve is arranged. The cylinder and the housing, in particular the recess, are preferably matched to one another and / or configured to prevent axial movement of the cylinder or sleeve relative to the housing.

According to a development, a fitting arrangement may be provided and the housing may be fastened to a fitting part of the fitting arrangement. Over the fitting arrangement, the wing can be locked to the fixed enclosure. In addition, the fitting arrangement can be brought into a switching position, which allows a tipping open the wing. Now, if the housing of the damper device is attached to the fitting assembly, it is not necessary to attach the housing directly to the wing or to the fixed enclosure. Preferably, the housing can be attached to a fitting part of the fitting assembly, which is anyway provided on a fitting arrangement. Thus, a change of the fitting assembly or the fitting part to which the housing is attached, not necessary. This makes it possible to provide a damper device on a window or door with little effort and at low cost.

It is particularly advantageous if the housing is adapted to the fitting part such that it can be plugged onto the fitting part. As a result, the assembly of the damper device is carried out particularly quickly. There are no additional fasteners, such as screws, are introduced, although it is of course quite possible to attach the housing or the damper device with appropriate fasteners, such as screws on the fitting assembly on the wing or on the fixed enclosure. However, if the housing can be plugged onto the fitting part, installation without tools is possible.

According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the housing may have a projection which is adapted to a closing piece of the fitting arrangement, wherein the housing with the projection on the closing piece can be plugged. Locking pieces often have a slot open on one side. By a corresponding configuration of the projection, the housing can be attached to this slot. Due to the length of the slot a relatively long guide is given, so that a stable attachment is ensured. The slot usually also has a rear handle, which can engage in a corresponding groove of the projection, so that the housing can be kept particularly secure on the closing piece.

The closing piece can cooperate with a first portion with a locking element of the fitting arrangement and the housing can be attached to a second portion. For example, the closing piece may have a first open on one side slot, which cooperates with a locking element and having an opposite one-sided open slot on which the housing is attached.

It is advantageous if the closing piece is formed symmetrically with respect to a central transverse plane. For fastening the housing or the damper device thus conventional strikers can be used. During assembly, it is not necessary to pay attention to the orientation of the closing piece, since due to the symmetrical configuration both sides can cooperate with the locking element and the housing of the damper device can also be plugged on both sides.

Furthermore, an additional closing piece can be provided, on which the housing is fastened. Thus, a damper device can be arranged not only at the locations where a closing piece is provided to cooperate with a locking element, but it can be provided at almost any point of the fitting arrangement a Zusatzschließstück to order the damper device at a particularly suitable location can , If a closing piece is used as the fitting part for fastening the housing, standard fitting parts can be used for fastening the damping device.

As mentioned above, it is quite possible to attach the housing directly to the fixed enclosure or the wing. In this approach, one is not bound to the design of the fitting assembly but the position of the damper device can be selected at the window or on the door so that an optimal damping effect is achieved.

Further advantages result if the damper device, in particular the housing, has an anti-twist device. This can ensure that the damping element maintains the necessary alignment for optimal damping. The rotation can be formed, for example, as a guide or system of the housing on the closing piece Furthermore, it is conceivable that the housing an attack or attack on the wing or on the fixed enclosure is provided to stabilize the position of the housing.

If the damping element is oriented transversely, ie at an angle, in particular orthogonal, to the seam circumferential direction, the damping element can be aligned directly with the wing or the fixed frame interact. The damper device can be constructed particularly simple.

Alternatively it can be provided that the damping element is aligned in the circumferential direction Falzumfangs and cooperates with a deflection mechanism having a stop on the wing or the fixed enclosure stop member. In this case, the damping element does not interact directly with the wing or the fixed enclosure but via a deflection mechanism. This makes it possible to arrange the damping element is not transverse to the Falzumfangsrichtung but in Falzumfangsrichtung. Thus, the damping element can be arranged for example in the rabbet area between the wing and fixed enclosure. This results in a space-saving arrangement. The deflection mechanism can be designed almost arbitrarily. For example, the deflection mechanism may include a toggle. A deflection mechanism can also be used in the case of a damping element oriented transversely to the fold circumferential direction. As a result, a greater degree of freedom with respect. The arrangement of the damping element and the attachment point for the wing or the enclosure is achieved. In particular, attachment points and damping element can be spatially separated.

In the context of the invention also applies a use of a closing movement of a blade damping damper device in a window or a door with a relative to a fixed enclosure between a closed position and at least one open position movable wings.

Further features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description of an embodiment of the invention, with reference to the figures of the drawing, the invention essential details and from the claims. The individual features can be realized individually for themselves or for several in any combination in a variant of the invention.

Preferred embodiments of the invention are shown schematically in the drawing and are explained below with reference to the figures of the drawing. Show it:

The FIG. 1 shows a window 1 with a fixed frame formed as a frame 2 and a wing 3. The wing 3 is in a tilted opening position. The surround side two damper devices 4, 5 are arranged. So that the damper devices 4, 5 can be seen better, the enclosure 2 is excluded in sections in the drawing. The damper devices 4, 5 are described in more detail in the following figures. It can be seen that damping elements 6, 7 point in the direction of wing 3. In particular, the damping elements 6, 7 are aligned transversely to the fold circumferential direction. If the wing 3 is closed, it hits the wing 3 first against the damping elements 6, 7, before he gets into contact with the fixed enclosure 2. The damping elements 6, 7 are slidably arranged axially displaceable in the axial direction. This means that in a striking of the wing 3 to the damping elements 6, 7 (the faces form attachment points) they are slowly moved perpendicular to the mounting plane and thus slow down the movement of the wing 3.

If the wing 3 is opened, on the other hand, the damping elements 6, 7 move in the position shown. For this purpose, restoring elements can be provided.

In the upper fold region of the wing 3, a wing-side part of a fitting arrangement 8 can be seen. On the fixed enclosure 2 is designed as a closing piece fitting part 9 can be seen, which is part of the fixed frame side part of the fitting assembly.

In the FIG. 2 It can be seen that the damper device 4 has the damping element 6, which is disposed damping-effectively displaceable in a cylinder 10. In particular, the damping element 6 is a piston which is movable in the cylinder 10, which is at least partially filled with a liquid, in particular oil, a gas or gas mixture. The cylinder 10 is in turn received by a housing 11 which has a recess 12 for the cylinder 10. To ensure that during a closing movement of the blade 3, only the damping element 6 is displaced relative to the cylinder 10, but not the cylinder 10 relative to the housing 11, the cylinder 10 has a collar 13 whose diameter is greater than the inner diameter of the recess 12. Preferably, in the cylinder 10 is still a spring element as Provided return element which causes a return of the damping element 6 in its extended position when the wing 3 is opened.

The housing 11 is adapted to be fastened to a fitting 9 designed as a closing piece. For this purpose, the housing 11 has a projection 14 which has a portion 15 which is insertable into a one-sided open slot 16 of the fitting part 9. Furthermore, a portion 17 is provided which is secured to the surface 18, i. from the outside, abuts the fitting part 9. The projection 14 is formed so that it has a groove whose width corresponds approximately to the material thickness of the wall 19, so that the edge of the elongated hole 16 is engaged behind by the projection 14 and a portion of the projection 14. The housing 11 can therefore be easily attached laterally to the fitting part 9, in particular, until the stop 20 abuts the fitting part 9 laterally. Characterized in that the housing 11 rests on both sides of the slot 16 on the fitting part 9 and the portion 17 bears against the surface 18, an anti-rotation is realized, so that the housing 11 is not rotated relative to the fitting 9 even under load. Also, the stopper 20 prevents rotation of the housing 11 when it rests against the fitting part 9.

It can be seen that the fitting part 9 is formed symmetrically with respect to a central transverse plane. In particular, a second open on one side slot 21 is provided, which is identical to the slot 16 constructed. The housing 11 can therefore be attached either to the slot 16 or the slot 21. It is also possible that both the slot 16 and the slot 21 cooperates with a locking element of the fitting assembly 8.

The FIG. 3 shows the damper device 4 when it is attached to the fitting part 9. Here it can be clearly seen that the damper device 4 is positively connected to the fitting part 9, wherein no additional fastening means, in particular no screws are necessary to attach the housing 11 to the fitting part 9. The housing 11 is merely attached laterally to the fitting part 9. Also, the housing 11 is formed symmetrically with respect to a central plane. It has in particular a shape that allows access to the mounting holes 25 even when the housing 11 is mounted.

The FIG. 4 shows a window 30 with a fixed enclosure 31, which is formed as a frame, and a wing 32, which is in a tilted opening position. In this case, a damper device 33 is arranged on the wing side, in particular mounted on the Flügelfalz 34 next to the fitting assembly 35. In this case, the housing 36 of the damper 33 is bolted to the wing 32. A damping element 37, which is performed damping effect in the cylinder 38, is aligned in Falzumfangsrichtung.

The damping element 37 cooperates with a deflection mechanism 39, which in the exemplary embodiment has two levers 40, 41, wherein the end 42 of the lever 41 is fixed in place. The levers 40, 41 are pivotally connected together. The lever 40 is also pivotally connected to the damping element 37.

The junction of the levers 40, 41 constitutes a stop 43 for the fixed enclosure 31. Thus, when the wing 32 is closed, the abutment 43 abuts against the fixed enclosure 31. Thereby, the angle between the levers 40, 41 is increased by the damping element 37 in Falzumfangsrichtung, in shown embodiment to the left, is displaced into the cylinder 38. If, however, the wing 32 is opened, the deflection mechanism 39 assumes its position shown by the damping element 37 is moved out of the cylinder 38 at least in sections.

From the two embodiments, it can be clearly seen that the damper device 4, 5, 33 can be easily retrofitted to existing windows 1, 30 or doors. It is understood that a plurality of damper devices 4, 5, 33 can be provided for each window or for each door. As a result, the damping effect can be increased or improved. Preferably, the damper devices 4, 5, 33 are arranged at the locations where the greatest opening width of the wing 3, 32 can be achieved. In particular, it is advantageous if the damper device 4, 5, 33 is arranged in the upper region of a window 1, 30.

In order to effect a damping during the closing of the blade 3, 32 from a rotational opening position, however, it may also be advantageous to provide a damping device 4, 5, 33 approximately centrally on one side of the blade 3, 32.

When in the FIG. 4 In the embodiment shown, it would be sufficient if the damping element 37 or the cylinder 38 had a substantially parallel orientation to the seam circumferential direction. In particular, cylinder 38 or damping element 37 may have a slightly oblique orientation to the fold circumferential direction. The same applies to the damping element 6. This does not necessarily have to be arranged orthogonal to the plane of the fixed enclosure 2. Even deviating angular positions are conceivable.
