Bei einer derartigen Schließvorrichtung kann es sich beispielsweise um eine Gebäudetür oder ein Gebäudefenster oder eine andere Einrichtung, beispielsweise eine Klappeneinrichtung oder dergleichen, an einem Gebäude handeln. Mit einer solchen Schließvorrichtung kann allgemein eine Öffnung eines Gebäudes wahlweise verschlossen oder freigegeben werden, wobei beispielsweise ein Fenster in an sich bekannter Weise eine zumindest abschnittsweise transparente, lichtdurchlässige Scheibe aufweist.Such a locking device can be, for example, a building door or a building window or another device, for example a flap device or the like, on a building. With such a locking device, an opening in a building can generally be either closed or opened, with a window, for example, having an at least partially transparent, translucent pane in a manner known per se.

Herkömmlich können Gebäudefenster oder Gebäudetüren manuell betätigt werden, um sie zu öffnen oder zu schließen. Ein Fensterflügel eines Gebäudefensters kann hierbei beispielsweise in eine Kippstellung gebracht und dazu um eine horizontale Schwenkachse verschwenkt oder durch Schwenken um eine vertikale Schwenkachse vollständig geöffnet werden.Traditionally, building windows or doors can be manually operated to open or close them. A window sash of a building window can, for example, be brought into a tilt position and pivoted about a horizontal pivot axis or completely opened by pivoting about a vertical pivot axis.

Zudem ist bekannt, an Gebäudefenstern oder Gebäudetüren Antriebsvorrichtungen vorzusehen, die zum elektromotorischen Verstellen des Fensterflügels oder des Türflügels dienen oder beispielsweise auf eine Verriegelungseinrichtung einwirken, um z.B. durch Verstellen von Verriegelungszapfen der Verriegelungseinrichtung ein Fenster oder eine Tür in einer geschlossenen Stellung zu verriegeln oder zum Öffnen freizugeben.In addition, it is known to provide drive devices on building windows or building doors, which are used for electromotive adjustment of the window sash or the door sash or, for example, act on a locking device, for example to lock a window or a door in a closed position or to open it by adjusting locking pins of the locking device to release.

Eine Schließvorrichtung mit einem elektromotorisch mittels einer Antriebsvorrichtung verstellbaren Verstellflügel ist beispielsweise aus der DE 10 2011 006 524 A1 bekannt.A locking device with an adjustment leaf that can be adjusted by an electric motor using a drive device is, for example, from DE 10 2011 006 524 A1 known.

Aus der nicht vorveröffentlichten deutschen Patentanmeldung 10 2012 203 602.4 ist eine Antriebsvorrichtung bekannt, die nach Art eines Servomotors zum Betätigen einer Verriegelungseinrichtung einer Schließvorrichtung ausgestaltet ist.From the unpublished German patent application 10 2012 203 602.4 a drive device is known which is designed in the manner of a servo motor for actuating a locking device of a locking device.

Obwohl an Schließvorrichtungen heutzutage elektromotorische Antriebsvorrichtungen zum Verstellen des Verstellflügels oder zumindest einer Baugruppe des Verstellflügels vorgesehen sein können, ist in der Regel gleichwohl dennoch erforderlich, einen Verstellvorgang manuell durch einen Nutzer zu initiieren und durch Betätigen einer geeigneten Bedienungseinheit zu steuern. Beispielsweise kann vorgesehen sein, eine Antriebsvorrichtung zum Öffnen eines Fensters oder einer Tür durch manuelles Betätigen einer geeigneten Bedienungseinheit zu betätigen.Although electromotive drive devices can now be provided on locking devices for adjusting the adjustment sash or at least a subassembly of the adjustment sash, it is still generally necessary to initiate an adjustment process manually by a user and to control it by actuating a suitable operating unit. For example, it can be provided to operate a drive device for opening a window or a door by manually operating a suitable operating unit.

Using a sensor device, external environmental influences can be detected, which are used to control the locking devices using internal measured values from a sensor device arranged inside a room.

Die EP 0 799 962 A1 beschreibt ein Verfahren zum Betrieb einer Türanlage, bei der beispielsweise Außen- und Innentüren in aufeinander abgestimmter Weise betätigt werden können. Türelementen kann hierbei eine übergeordnete Steuerung zugeordnet sein, wobei jedes Türelement auch eine individuelle Steuerung aufweisen kann.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein System eines Gebäudes und ein Verfahren zum Betreiben eines Systems eines Gebäudes bereitzustellen, bei denen Vorgänge, die herkömmlich durch einen Nutzer eingeleitet und gesteuert werden, in zumindest weitestgehend automatisierter Weise ablaufen können, um auf diese Weise einem Nutzer die Bedienung einer Mehrzahl von Schließvorrichtungen in einem Gebäude zu erleichtern.The object of the present invention is to provide a system of a building and a method for operating a system of a building in which processes that are conventionally initiated and controlled by a user can take place in at least a largely automated manner in order to provide a user to facilitate the operation of a plurality of locking devices in a building.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Gegenstand mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This task is solved by an object with the features of claim 1.

Demnach ist bei einem System eines Gebäudes vorgesehen, dass die Steuereinrichtung jeder Schließvorrichtung eine Kommunikationsschnittstelle aufweist und die Steuereinrichtungen der mindestens zwei Schließvorrichtungen ausgebildet sind, über ihre Kommunikationsschnittstellen zur Steuerung der mindestens zwei Schließvorrichtungen in Abhängigkeit des Sensorsignals der mindestens einen Sensoreinrichtung miteinander zu kommunizieren.Accordingly, in a system of a building it is provided that the control device of each locking device has a communication interface and the control devices of the at least two locking devices are designed, via their communication interfaces, to control the at least two locking devices depending on the sensor signal of the at least one sensor device to communicate with each other.

Die vorliegende Erfindung geht zunächst von dem Gedanken aus, eine oder mehrere Sensoreinrichtungen vorzusehen, die eine Umweltbedingung erfassen. Bei solch einer Umweltbedingung handelt es sich um die Helligkeit, eine Vibration eines Bauteils, und/oder das Auftreten von Lärm im Bereich einer Sensoreinrichtung. Bei weiteren Umweltbedingungen kann es sich um die Temperatur, die Luftfeuchtigkeit, den Luftdruck, einen Luftstrom, die Luftgüte, einen Bruch an einem Bauteil, das Vorhandensein von Regen und/oder die Luftmenge handeln. Entsprechend ist die Sensoreinrichtung als Helligkeitssensor, als Temperatursensor, als Luftfeuchtigkeitssensor, als Luftdrucksensor, als Windmesser, als Vibrationssensor, als Bruchsensor, als Näherungssensor oder dergleichen ausgestaltet und dient zum Erfassen der zugeordneten Umweltbedingung und zum Erzeugen eines Sensorsignals in Abhängigkeit von der erfassten Umweltbedingung (das Sensorsignal zeigt beispielsweise die Helligkeit, die Temperatur, die Luftfeuchtigkeit, den Luftdruck usw. an). In Abhängigkeit von einer erfassten Umweltbedingung erfolgt dann eine Steuerung der Schließvorrichtungen des Systems, wobei hierzu die Steuereinrichtungen der Schließvorrichtungen miteinander kommunizieren, um in abgestimmter Weise auf eine erfasste Umweltbedingung zu reagieren.The present invention is initially based on the idea of providing one or more sensor devices that detect an environmental condition. Such an environmental condition is the brightness, a vibration of a component, and/or the occurrence of noise in the area of a sensor device. Other environmental conditions may include temperature, humidity, air pressure, air flow, air quality, a break in a component, the presence of rain and/or the amount of air. Accordingly, the sensor device is designed as a brightness sensor, as a temperature sensor, as an air humidity sensor, as an air pressure sensor, as an anemometer, as a vibration sensor, as a break sensor, as a proximity sensor or the like and is used to detect the associated environmental condition and to generate a sensor signal depending on the detected environmental condition (the Sensor signal indicates, for example, brightness, temperature, humidity, air pressure, etc.). Depending on a detected environmental condition, the locking devices of the system are then controlled, for which purpose the control devices of the locking devices communicate with one another in order to react in a coordinated manner to a detected environmental condition.

Grundsätzlich können Sensoreinrichtungen in dem System an unterschiedlichen Orten angeordnet werden, wobei an einem Ort auch mehrere Sensoreinrichtungen, die beispielsweise unterschiedliche Umweltbedingungen, beispielsweise die Helligkeit und die Temperatur, anzeigen, vorgesehen sein können. Vorteilhafterweise ist aber jeder Schließvorrichtung mindestens eine Sensoreinrichtung zugeordnet, so dass lokal an jeder Schließvorrichtung mindestens eine Umweltbedingung sensorisch erfasst und gemessen werden kann.In principle, sensor devices can be arranged in the system at different locations, with several sensor devices which, for example, display different environmental conditions, for example brightness and temperature, also being provided at one location. Advantageously, however, at least one sensor device is assigned to each locking device, so that at least one environmental condition can be detected and measured locally on each locking device.

Beispielsweise kann an jeder Schließvorrichtung lokal die Helligkeit gemessen werden, so dass jede Schließvorrichtung über entsprechende Sensorsignale Informationen über die lokal an der jeweiligen Schließvorrichtung herrschenden Umweltbedingung ausgeben kann. Diese lokalen Umweltbedingungen werden über die Kommunikationsschnittstellen der Steuereinrichtungen zwischen den Schließvorrichtungen ausgetauscht, so dass die Schließvorrichtungen jeweils über Informationen der Umweltbedingungen an den einzelnen Schließvorrichtungen verfügen können und somit eine abgestimmte Betriebsweise der Schließvorrichtungen, beispielsweise einer abgestimmte Betätigung der Schließvorrichtungen für ein Öffnen oder Schließen der Schließvorrichtungen, möglich wird.For example, the brightness can be measured locally at each locking device, so that each locking device can output information about the environmental conditions prevailing locally at the respective locking device via corresponding sensor signals. These local environmental conditions are exchanged between the locking devices via the communication interfaces of the control devices, so that the locking devices can each have information about the environmental conditions on the individual locking devices and thus a coordinated operation of the locking devices, for example a coordinated actuation of the locking devices for opening or closing the locking devices , becomes possible.

Beispielsweise können die Steuereinrichtungen der Schließvorrichtungen ausgebildet sein, die Schließvorrichtungen in Abhängigkeit von dem Sensorsignal zum Einstellen eines Luftstroms durch die Schließvorrichtungen anzusteuern. Dies kann beispielsweise vor dem Hintergrund erfolgen, dass in einem Raum innerhalb des Systems eine erhöhte Temperatur oder eine verminderte Luftgüte festgestellt wird, so dass mittels eines Luftaustauschs in dem Raum durch Bereitstellung eines Luftstroms durch den Raum die Temperatur oder die Luftgüte in dem Raum beeinflusst werden soll. Zum Einstellen des Luftstroms kann hierbei der Luftdruck an mindestens zwei Schließvorrichtungen gemessen werden, wobei bei Feststellen eines Luftdruckunterschieds an den beiden Schließvorrichtungen die Schließvorrichtungen zum Öffnen betätigt werden können, um auf diese Weise einen Luftstrom durch die Schließvorrichtungen und durch den Raum zu bewirken.For example, the control devices of the locking devices can be designed to control the locking devices depending on the sensor signal to adjust an air flow through the locking devices. This can be done, for example, against the background that an increased temperature or a reduced air quality is detected in a room within the system, so that the temperature or the air quality in the room can be influenced by exchanging air in the room by providing an air flow through the room should. To adjust the air flow, the air pressure can be measured at at least two locking devices, whereby if an air pressure difference is detected at the two locking devices, the locking devices can be actuated to open in order to cause an air flow through the locking devices and through the room.

Denkbar ist beispielsweise auch, dass mittels mindestens einer Sensoreinrichtung eine verminderte Luftgüte, eine in ungünstiger Weise erhöhte oder erniedrigte Luftfeuchtigkeit oder eine ungünstige Temperatur innerhalb eines Raums des Systems festgestellt wird. In diesem Fall können eine oder mehrere Schließvorrichtungen für einen Luftaustausch in dem Raum in abgestimmter, gesteuerter Weise über einen Zeitraum geöffnet werden, wobei hierbei in Abhängigkeit von lokal an den Schließvorrichtungen gemessenen Sensorsignalen, beispielsweise der Temperatur oder die Luftfeuchtigkeit, gerade die Schließvorrichtungen geöffnet werden, die die zu ändernde Umweltbedingung, also z. B. die Luftgüte, die Luftfeuchtigkeit oder die Temperatur beeinflussen können.It is also conceivable, for example, that a reduced air quality, an unfavorably increased or decreased air humidity or an unfavorable temperature within a room of the system is determined by means of at least one sensor device. In this case, one or more locking devices for air exchange in the room can be opened in a coordinated, controlled manner over a period of time, in which case the locking devices are opened depending on sensor signals measured locally on the locking devices, for example the temperature or humidity, which is the environmental condition to be changed, i.e. e.g. B. can influence the air quality, humidity or temperature.

Wird beispielsweise innerhalb eines Raum festgestellt, dass dort die Temperatur über einem vorbestimmten Sollwert liegt, und wird gleichzeitig festgestellt, dass an Schließvorrichtungen (beispielsweise auf einer Sonnenseite eines Gebäudes) ebenfalls eine erhöhte Temperatur, an anderen Schließvorrichtungen (beispielsweise an einer Schattenseite des Gebäudes) eine niedrigere Temperatur besteht, so können gezielt die Schließvorrichtungen zum Öffnen angesteuert werden, die einen positiven Effekt beispielsweise zum Absenken der Temperatur innerhalb des Raums hin zum gewünschten Sollwert bewirken können, also in dem genannten Beispiel die Schließvorrichtungen an der Schattenseite des Gebäudes, um eine Reduzierung der Temperatur innerhalb des Raums zu erreichen.For example, if it is determined within a room that the temperature there is above a predetermined setpoint, and at the same time it is determined that there is also an increased temperature on locking devices (for example on a sunny side of a building), and on other locking devices (for example on a shady side of the building). If there is a lower temperature, the locking devices can be specifically controlled for opening, which can have a positive effect, for example, by lowering the temperature within the room towards the desired setpoint, i.e. in the example mentioned, the locking devices on the shady side of the building in order to reduce the temperature within the room.

An den Schließvorrichtungen wird beispielsweise eine akustische Lautstärke, also ein Lärmpegel, gemessen. Wird festgestellt, dass an einer Schließvorrichtung (und zwar bevorzugt außerhalb des Gebäudes) ein erhöhter Lärmpegel besteht, so können diese Schließvorrichtungen und ggf. auch weitere Schließvorrichtungen zum Schließen angesteuert werden, um einen Raum innerhalb des Gebäudes von Lärm abzuschirmen und auf diese Weise die Lautstärke in dem Raum zu reduzieren.For example, an acoustic volume, i.e. a noise level, is measured at the locking devices. If it is determined that there is an increased noise level on a locking device (preferably outside the building), these locking devices and possibly also other locking devices can be activated for closing in order to shield a room within the building from noise and in this way reduce the volume in the room to reduce.

Weiterhin ist denkbar, die Schließvorrichtungen zur Bereitstellung eines erhöhten Einbruchsschutzes anzusteuern, indem beispielsweise sämtliche Schließvorrichtungen zum Schließen und Verriegeln angesteuert werden, wenn an einer Schließvorrichtung, beispielsweise an einem Fensterflügel, eine einen Sollwert übersteigende Vibration oder gar ein Bruch detektiert wird, der auf einen Einbruchsversuch hindeuten kann.Furthermore, it is conceivable to control the locking devices to provide increased burglary protection, for example by controlling all locking devices for closing and locking, if on a locking device, for example on a window sash, a vibration that exceeds a setpoint or even a break is detected, which can indicate an attempted break-in.

Die Schließvorrichtungen kommunizieren über die ihnen zugeordneten Steuereinrichtungen und deren Kommunikationsschnittstellen miteinander und tauschen auf diese Weise Daten und Informationen aus, um eine Betätigung der Schließvorrichtungen in abgestimmter Weise vornehmen zu können. Die Betätigung kann hierbei vollständig automatisch ablaufen, so dass keine oder nur eine minimale Anzahl von Nutzerinteraktionen erforderlich ist. Das Bereitstellen eines Einbruchschutzes durch Ansteuern der Schließvorrichtungen zum Schließen und Verriegeln kann beispielsweise vollständig ohne Nutzerinteraktion erfolgen. Das Einstellen einer Temperatur in einem Raum durch einen geeigneten Luftaustausch, beispielsweise durch Einstellen eines Luftstroms oder durch Öffnen bestimmter Schließvorrichtungen, kann ebenfalls völlig automatisiert ablaufen, wobei ggf. ein Nutzer eine gewünschte Temperatur einstellen kann und das System daraufhin in selbsttätiger Weise dafür erforderliche Schritte einleitet. Oder ein Nutzer kann über eine geeignete Bedienungseinheit, die mit den Steuereinrichtungen kommuniziert, einen vorbestimmten Vorgang, beispielsweise den Vorgang "Lüften" initiieren, wobei das System dann die erforderlichen Schritte zur Durchführung des Vorgangs selbsttätig ausführt und beispielsweise gezielt solche Schließvorrichtungen ansteuert, die einen gewünschten Luftaustausch bewirken können oder an denen beispielsweise gerade kein Regen festgestellt wird.The locking devices communicate with each other via the control devices assigned to them and their communication interfaces and in this way exchange data and information in order to be able to operate the locking devices in a coordinated manner. The operation can be completely automatic, so that no or only a minimal number of user interactions are required. Providing burglary protection by controlling the locking devices for closing and locking can, for example, be done completely without user interaction. Setting a temperature in a room through a suitable air exchange, for example by adjusting an air flow or by opening certain locking devices, can also be completely automated, whereby a user may be able to set a desired temperature and the system then automatically initiates the necessary steps . Or a user can initiate a predetermined process, for example the "ventilation" process, via a suitable operating unit that communicates with the control devices, with the system then automatically carrying out the steps necessary to carry out the process and, for example, specifically controlling those locking devices that have a desired one Air exchange can occur or where, for example, no rain is currently being detected.

Die Steuereinrichtungen kommunizieren somit miteinander und ggf. auch mit einer durch einen Nutzer zu bedienenden Bedienungseinheit. Zusätzlich kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Steuereinrichtungen auch mit anderen Funktionssystemen eines Gebäudes kommunizieren, beispielsweise einer Alarmanlage, einer Klimaanlage oder einer Heizungsanlage. Wird beispielsweise lokal an einer oder an mehreren Schließvorrichtungen ein Einbruchsversuch detektiert, so kann entsprechend auch eine Alarmanlage zum Einleiten geeigneter Gegenmaßnahmen, beispielsweise zur Ausgabe eines akustischen Signals, angesteuert werden. Oder eine Heizungsanlage oder Klimaanlage kann im Zusammenspiel mit den Schließvorrichtungen zum Einstellen vorbestimmter klimatischer Bedingungen innerhalb eines Raums des Systems betätigt werden, so dass im Zusammenspiel der Heizungsanlage und/oder der Klimaanlage mit den Schließvorrichtungen in energieeffizienter Weise beispielsweise eine vorbestimmte Temperatur, Luftfeuchtigkeit oder dergleichen innerhalb eines Raums eines Gebäudes eingestellt werden kann.The control devices thus communicate with each other and possibly also with an operating unit that can be operated by a user. In addition, it can be provided that the control devices also communicate with other functional systems of a building, for example an alarm system, an air conditioning system or a heating system. For example, if an attempted break-in is detected locally on one or more locking devices, an alarm system can also be activated to initiate suitable countermeasures, for example to output an acoustic signal. Or a heating system or air conditioning system can be operated in interaction with the locking devices to set predetermined climatic conditions within a room of the system, so that in interaction of the heating system and / or the air conditioning system with the locking devices in an energy-efficient manner, for example, a predetermined temperature, humidity or the like within a room in a building can be set.

Denkbar sind selbstverständlich auch andere Funktionssysteme, die sich von den Schließvorrichtungen unterscheiden und mit denen die Steuereinrichtungen der Schließvorrichtungen für eine abgestimmte Betriebsweise kommunizieren.Of course, other functional systems that differ from the locking devices and with which the control devices of the locking devices communicate for coordinated operation are also conceivable.

Zur Kommunikation kann jede Steuereinrichtung über die ihr zugeordnete Kommunikationsstelle beispielsweise mit einem Bussystem eines Gebäudes verbunden sein. Über ein Bussystem können beispielsweise drahtgebunden Informationen und Daten zwischen einzelnen Funktionseinheiten innerhalb eines Gebäudes ausgetauscht werden. Denkbar ist aber auch, dass die Steuereinrichtungen untereinander und ggf. auch mit weiteren Funktionssystemen drahtlos kommunizieren, wobei hierzu geeignete drahtlose Kommunikationsstandards, beispielsweise WiFi (WLAN), Bluetooth oder dergleichen zum Einsatz kommen können.For communication purposes, each control device can be connected, for example, to a bus system in a building via the communication point assigned to it. For example, a bus system can be used to exchange wired information and data between individual functional units within a building. However, it is also conceivable that the control devices communicate wirelessly with each other and possibly also with other functional systems, for which suitable wireless communication standards, for example WiFi (WLAN), Bluetooth or the like can be used.

Ein Gedanke der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt darin, durch Zuordnung einer Steuereinrichtung zu jeder Schließvorrichtung und durch Bereitstellen einer Kommunikation zwischen den Steuereinrichtungen der Schließvorrichtungen eine dezentrale Steuerung zu ermöglichen, die grundsätzlich auf eine zentrale Steuereinrichtung verzichten kann. Die Steuerung der Schließvorrichtungen erfolgt dabei in dezentraler Weise durch Kommunikation zwischen den einzelnen, lokal an den Schließvorrichtungen vorgesehenen Steuereinrichtungen. Zusätzlich ist aber auch denkbar, eine zentrale Steuereinrichtung vorzusehen, die zentrale Steuerungsaufgaben übernehmen kann. Über die zentrale Steuereinrichtung kann beispielsweise dann auch die Kommunikation zwischen den einzelnen, dezentralen Steuereinrichtungen erfolgen, wobei weiterhin Informationen und Daten zwischen den einzelnen dezentralen, den Schließvorrichtungen zugeordneten Steuereinrichtungen ausgetauscht werden, dies aber dann über die zentrale Steuereinrichtung erfolgt.One idea of the present invention is to enable decentralized control, which can basically do without a central control device, by assigning a control device to each locking device and by providing communication between the control devices of the locking devices. The locking devices are controlled in a decentralized manner through communication between the individual control devices provided locally on the locking devices. In addition, it is also conceivable to provide a central control device that can take on central control tasks. For example, communication between the individual, decentralized control devices can then also take place via the central control device, with information and data continuing to be exchanged between the individual decentralized control devices assigned to the locking devices, but this then takes place via the central control device.

Jede Steuereinrichtung ist, wie gesagt, einer Schließvorrichtung zugeordnet. Die Steuereinrichtung ist dabei im Bereich der Schließvorrichtung, beispielsweise als integraler Bestandteil der Schließvorrichtung, an einem Gebäude montiert. Beispielsweise kann die Steuereinrichtung in dem Rahmen der zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung untergebracht sein. Denkbar ist aber auch, die Steuereinrichtung beispielsweise in einer Unterputzdose in unmittelbarer räumlicher Nähe zu der zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung unterzubringen.As mentioned, each control device is assigned to a locking device. The control device is mounted on a building in the area of the locking device, for example as an integral part of the locking device. For example, the control device can be accommodated in the frame of the associated locking device. However, it is also conceivable to accommodate the control device, for example, in a flush-mounted box in the immediate vicinity of the assigned locking device.

Zum Anbringen der Steuereinrichtung integral an der Schließvorrichtung oder zumindest in räumlicher Nähe zur Schließvorrichtung ist wünschenswert, den für die Steuereinrichtung erforderlichen Bauraum soweit zu reduzieren, dass die Steuereinrichtung beispielsweise im Rahmen der Schließvorrichtung oder in einer Unterputzdose in der Nähe der Schließvorrichtung untergebracht werden kann. Hierzu ist vorgesehen, dass ein Schaltnetzteil der Steuereinrichtung und ein Steuerungsteil der Steuereinrichtung eine Prozessoreinheit gemeinsam nutzen, so dass keine separaten Prozessoreinheiten einerseits für das Schaltnetzteil und andererseits für das Steuerungsteil erforderlich sind.In order to attach the control device integrally to the locking device or at least in spatial proximity to the locking device, it is desirable to reduce the installation space required for the control device to such an extent that the control device can be accommodated, for example, in the frame of the locking device or in a flush-mounted box near the locking device. For this purpose, it is provided that a switching power supply of the control device and a control part of the control device share a processor unit, so that no separate processor units are required on the one hand for the switching power supply and on the other hand for the control part.

Bei einem Schaltnetzteil handelt es sich um eine elektronische Baugruppe, die ausgestaltet ist, eine unstabilisierte Eingangsspannung in eine konstante Ausgangsspannung umzuwandeln. Dafür wird die unstabilisierte Eingangsspannung, beispielsweise eine Netzspannung eines Energieversorgungsnetzes, zunächst gleichgerichtet, zur Transformation dann in eine Wechselspannung höherer Frequenz umgewandelt (durch das so genannte "Schalten") und nach der Transformation erneut gleichgerichtet. Solche Schaltnetzteile weisen, im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichen Trafo-Netzteilen oder Längsspannungsreglern einen hohen Wirkungsgrad auf.A switching power supply is an electronic assembly that is designed to convert an unstabilized input voltage into a constant output voltage. This is why the unstabilized one is used Input voltage, for example a mains voltage of a power supply network, first rectified, then converted into an alternating voltage of higher frequency for transformation (through the so-called "switching") and rectified again after the transformation. In contrast to conventional transformer power supplies or series voltage regulators, such switching power supplies have a high level of efficiency.

Dadurch, dass das Schaltnetzteil und das Steuerungsteil der Steuereinrichtung eine gemeinsame Prozessoreinheit nutzen (herkömmlich weisen Schaltnetzteile eine eigene Prozessoreinheit auf), können Funktionskomponenten der Steuereinrichtung ineinander integriert werden, und es kann auf Bauteile, insbesondere eine eigene Prozessoreinheit für das Schaltnetzteil einerseits und das Steuerungsteil andererseits, verzichtet werden. Durch die integrierte Bauweise der Steuerungseinrichtung reduziert sich der Bauraum, so dass eine Unterbringung im Rahmen der Schließvorrichtung oder in einer Unterputzdose im Bereich der Schließvorrichtung möglich wird. Zudem entstehen neben Kosten- und Platzvorteilen ggf. auch weitere Vorteile daraus, dass eine direkte Regelung der Stromversorgung unter Berücksichtigung eines gerade durchgeführten Steuerungsprozesses möglich wird, ohne dass separate Prozessoreinheiten des Schaltnetzteils einerseits und des Steuerungsteils andererseits dafür miteinander kommunizieren müssen.Because the switched-mode power supply and the control part of the control device use a common processor unit (traditionally, switched-mode power supplies have their own processor unit), functional components of the control device can be integrated into one another, and components, in particular a separate processor unit, can be used for the switched-mode power supply on the one hand and the control part on the other , be waived. The integrated design of the control device reduces the installation space, so that it can be accommodated within the framework of the locking device or in a flush-mounted box in the area of the locking device. In addition to cost and space advantages, other advantages may also arise from the fact that direct regulation of the power supply is possible, taking into account a control process that is currently being carried out, without separate processor units of the switching power supply on the one hand and the control part on the other hand having to communicate with each other.

Die Prozessoreinheit kann auch einen Speicher zur Datenspeicherung umfassen.The processor unit can also include a memory for data storage.

Die Steuereinrichtung weist erfindungsgemäß weiter eine Sensorikeinheit zur Bereitstellung eines Anschlusses für zumindest eine Sensoreinrichtung aufweisen. Über die Sensorikeinheit werde eine oder mehrere Sensoreinrichtungen an die Steuereinrichtung angeschlossen, wobei über die Sensorikeinheit eingehende Sensorsignale ausgewertet und dem Steuerungsteil zugeführt werden, um eine Steuerung der zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung sowie durch Kommunikation mit anderen Steuereinrichtungen auch der anderen Schließeinrichtungen zu ermöglichen.According to the invention, the control device further has a sensor unit for providing a connection for at least one sensor device. One or more sensor devices are connected to the control device via the sensor unit, with incoming sensor signals being evaluated via the sensor unit and fed to the control part in order to enable control of the assigned locking device and also of the other locking devices through communication with other control devices.

Weiterhin kann die Steuereinrichtung einen elektrischen Energiespeicher zur elektrischen Versorgung aufweisen, wobei der elektrische Energiespeicher, insbesondere eine aufladbare Batterie nach Art eines Ackumulators, im selben Gehäuse wie andere Funktionskomponenten der Steuereinrichtung oder auch separat außerhalb des Gehäuses angeordnet werden kann. Mittels des elektrischen Energiespeichers kann sichergestellt werden, dass bei einem Stromausfall - also bei Ausfall der elektrischen Versorgung über ein mit der Steuereinrichtung verbundenes elektrisches Versorgungsnetz - der Betrieb der Steuereinrichtung sowie auch der elektrischen Funktionskomponenten der Schließvorrichtung gewährleistet ist. Über den elektrischen Energiespeicher kann beispielsweise bei einem Stromausfall an einem elektrischen Versorgungsnetz auch die Antriebsvorrichtung der Schließvorrichtung versorgt werden, so dass auch bei Stromausfall die Schließvorrichtung beispielsweise noch für ein Öffnen oder Schließen betätigt werden kann.Furthermore, the control device can have an electrical energy storage device for electrical supply, wherein the electrical energy storage device, in particular a rechargeable battery in the manner of an accumulator, can be arranged in the same housing as other functional components of the control device or also separately outside the housing. By means of the electrical energy storage it can be ensured that in the event of a power failure - i.e. in the event of a failure of the electrical supply via an electrical supply network connected to the control device - the operation of the control device as well as the electrical functional components of the locking device is guaranteed. For example, in the event of a power failure on an electrical supply network, the drive device of the locking device can also be supplied via the electrical energy storage, so that even in the event of a power failure, the locking device can still be actuated to open or close, for example.

Die Steuereinrichtung kann selbstlernend ausgebildet sein. Hierunter ist zu verstehen, dass die Steuereinrichtung in selbstlernender Weise beispielsweise bei einem Verstellvorgang der zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung auftretende Schwergängigkeiten aufnehmen kann, um bei einem nachfolgenden Schließvorgang die Antriebsvorrichtung so zu steuern und zu regeln, dass den Schwergängigkeiten in geeigneter Weise beispielsweise durch Leistungserhöhung gegengesteuert wird. Zudem kann die Steuereinrichtung beispielsweise ein Benutzerverhalten bei der Betätigung einer oder mehrerer Schließvorrichtungen erlernen, um einen erlernten Betätigungsvorgang dann in selbsttätiger, automatischer Weise weitestgehend ohne Nutzerinteraktion durchführen zu können.The control device can be designed to be self-learning. This is to be understood as meaning that the control device can, in a self-learning manner, record any sluggishness that occurs during an adjustment process of the associated locking device, in order to control and regulate the drive device in a subsequent closing process in such a way that the sluggishness is counteracted in a suitable manner, for example by increasing power. In addition, the control device can, for example, learn user behavior when operating one or more locking devices in order to then be able to carry out a learned actuation process in an automatic, automatic manner, largely without user interaction.

Zudem kann die Steuereinrichtung ausgebildet sein, beispielsweise Wartungsintervalle zu erkennen und ggf. anzuzeigen, auf die Änderung klimatischer Bedingungen zu reagieren, eine Manipulation an einer Schließvorrichtung zu erkennen (beispielsweise durch Stromerfassung des Antriebs oder durch Erkennung der Drehrichtung und der Position des Antriebs) oder dergleichen.In addition, the control device can be designed, for example, to recognize and, if necessary, display maintenance intervals, to react to changes in climatic conditions, to recognize manipulation of a locking device (for example by detecting the current of the drive or by detecting the direction of rotation and the position of the drive) or the like .

Insbesondere kann das System der hier beschriebenen Art ermöglichen,

  • auf Einbruchsversuche zu reagieren und ggf. einen Alarm zu erzeugen, um damit die Einbruchssicherheit zu erhöhen,
  • Motorparameter des Antriebs anzupassen und zu optimieren, beispielsweise in Abhängigkeit von an einer Schließvorrichtung festgestellten Umweltbedingungen,
  • die Energieeffizienz des Gesamtsystems zu verbessern,

  • den Energiehaushalt eines Gebäudes zu verbessern,
  • die Lüftungsbedingungen eines Gebäudes zu regeln und zu optimieren und
  • den Komfort eines Nutzers zu erhöhen, beispielsweise durch Bereitstellung eines Lärmschutzes.

Die Aufgabe wird auch durch ein Verfahren zum Betreiben eines Systems eines Gebäudes gelöst. Das System umfasst hierbei mindestens zwei Schließvorrichtungen, die jeweils einen Rahmen, einen an dem Rahmen befindlich angeordneten Verstellflügel, eine elektromotorische Antriebsvorrichtung zum Verstellen des Verstellflügels oder einer Baugruppe des Verstellflügels und eine Steuereinrichtung aufweisen, sowie mindestens eine Sensoreinrichtung zum Erzeugen eines Sensorsignals in Abhängigkeit mindestens einer Umweltbedingung.

Ein System 1 eines Gebäudes, dargestellt in Fig. 1, weist mehrere Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 in Form beispielsweise einer Haustür 20, einer Terrassentür 21 und Gebäudefenstern 22, 23 auf. Die Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 umfassen in an sich bekannter Weise jeweils einen Rahmen 201-231 und einen daran angeordneten verstellbaren Verstellflügel 200-230, der zum Öffnen oder Schließen der jeweils zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung 20 bis 23 verstellt werden kann.A system 1 of a building, shown in Fig. 1 , has several locking devices 20-23 in the form of, for example, a front door 20, a patio door 21 and building windows 22, 23. The locking devices 20-23 each comprise, in a manner known per se, a frame 201-231 and an adjustable adjustment wing 200-230 arranged thereon, which can be adjusted to open or close the respectively assigned locking device 20 to 23.

Die Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 sind einem Raum R eines Gebäudes zugeordnet und dienen entsprechend zum wahlweisen Verschließen oder Freigeben von Öffnungen, die Zugänge zu dem Raum R bereitstellen.The locking devices 20-23 are assigned to a room R of a building and are used to selectively close or release openings that provide access to the room R.

Jede Schließvorrichtung 20-23 weist eine Antriebsvorrichtung 202-232 auf, die zum Verstellen des jeweils zugeordneten Verstellflügels 200-230 oder zum Verstellen zumindest einer Baugruppe des Verstellflügels 200-230 dient. Die Antriebsvorrichtung 202-232 kann beispielsweise angesteuert werden, um den Verstellflügel 200-230 zum Öffnen oder Schließen der jeweils zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung 20-23 in elektromotorischer Weise zu bewegen.Each locking device 20-23 has a drive device 202-232, which is used to adjust the respectively assigned adjustment wing 200-230 or to adjust at least one assembly of the adjustment wing 200-230. The drive device 202-232 can be controlled, for example, in order to move the adjustment wing 200-230 in an electric motor manner to open or close the respectively assigned locking device 20-23.

Jeder Schließvorrichtung 20-23 ist weiterhin eine Sensoreinrichtung 30-33 zugeordnet, die zum Erfassen mindestens einer Umweltbedingung im Bereich der jeweils zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung 20-23 dient und integraler Bestandteil der Schließvorrichtung 20-23 sein kann oder zumindest in räumlicher Nähe zu der Schließvorrichtung 20-23 angeordnet ist.Each locking device 20-23 is further assigned a sensor device 30-33, which serves to detect at least one environmental condition in the area of the respectively assigned locking device 20-23 and can be an integral part of the locking device 20-23 or at least in spatial proximity to the locking device 20- 23 is arranged.

Zudem können auch weitere Sensoreinrichtungen 34, 35 vorgesehen sein, die an anderen Orten innerhalb oder außerhalb des Gebäudes angeordnet sind und ebenfalls Umweltbedingungen erfassen und entsprechende Sensorsignale erzeugen.In addition, further sensor devices 34, 35 can also be provided, which are arranged at other locations inside or outside the building and also detect environmental conditions and generate corresponding sensor signals.

Die Sensoreinrichtungen 30-35 dienen zum Messen der Helligkeit, einer Vibration oder eines Lärmpegels. Zusätzlich können die Sensoreinrichtungen 30-35 zum Messen der Temperatur, der Luftfeuchtigkeit, des Luftdrucks, eines Luftstroms, der Luftgüte, eines Bruchs, oder anderer Messwerte dienen.The sensor devices 30-35 are used to measure brightness, vibration or noise level. In addition, the sensor devices 30-35 can be used to measure temperature, humidity, air pressure, air flow, air quality, rupture, or other measured values.

Schließlich weist jede Schließvorrichtung 20-23 eine zugeordnete Steuereinrichtung 40-43 auf, die ebenfalls integraler Bestandteil der Schließvorrichtung 20-23 sein kann (indem sie beispielsweise innerhalb eines Profils des Rahmens 201-231 der zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung 20-23 angeordnet ist) oder die in räumlicher Nähe zur Schließvorrichtung 20-23 beispielsweise innerhalb einer Unterputzdose in einer Gebäudemauer angebracht ist.Finally, each locking device 20-23 has an associated control device 40-43, which can also be an integral part of the locking device 20-23 (for example, by being arranged within a profile of the frame 201-231 of the associated locking device 20-23) or which in spatial proximity to the locking device 20-23, for example within a flush-mounted box in a building wall.

Mittels der Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 wird im Sinne der vorliegenden Erfindung die Möglichkeit für eine dezentrale Steuerung der Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 geschaffen, indem jede Steuereinrichtung 40-43 eine Kommunikationsschnittstelle 401 (siehe Fig. 4) aufweist, über die die Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 zur Steuerung der Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 miteinander kommunizieren können. Die Steuerung erfolgt hierbei in abgestimmter Weise unter Berücksichtigung der Sensorsignale der Sensoreinrichtungen 30-35, so dass die Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 jeweils unter Einbeziehung von Informationen, Daten und Messwerten, die über die einzelnen Sensoreinrichtungen 30-35 erhalten werden, zum Öffnen oder Schließen angesteuert werden können, um beispielsweise innerhalb des Raums R einen Luftstrom L einzustellen, die Temperatur, Luftfeuchtigkeit oder Luftgüte innerhalb des Raums R zu beeinflussen, einen Luftaustausch in effizienter, energiesparender Weise zu bewirken, den Einbruchschutz zu verbessern oder einen anderen Betätigungsvorgang der Schließvorrichtung 20-23 in automatisierter Weise durchzuführen.By means of the control devices 40-43, the possibility for decentralized control of the locking devices 20-23 is created in the sense of the present invention, in that each control device 40-43 has a communication interface 401 (see Fig. 4 ), via which the control devices 40-43 can communicate with one another for controlling the locking devices 20-23. The control is carried out in a coordinated manner, taking into account the sensor signals from the sensor devices 30-35, so that the locking devices 20-23 are each controlled to open or close, taking into account information, data and measured values obtained via the individual sensor devices 30-35 can be used, for example, to set an air flow L within the room R, to influence the temperature, humidity or air quality within the room R, to effect an air exchange in an efficient, energy-saving manner, to improve burglary protection or another actuation process of the locking device 20-23 to be carried out in an automated manner.

Die Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 können hierzu, wie schematisch in Fig. 2 dargestellt, in dezentraler Weise miteinander kommunizieren, indem jede Steuereinrichtung 40-43 mit jeder anderen Steuereinrichtung 40-43 durch Daten- und Informationsaustausch kommuniziert. Eine Steuereinrichtung 40-43 übermittelt auf diese Weise beispielsweise Sensorsignale der ihr zugeordneten Sensoreinrichtung 30-35 an die übrigen Steuereinrichtungen 40-43, so dass lokal an einer Schließvorrichtung 20-23 gemessene Daten auch an anderen Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 zur Verfügung stehen und zur Steuerung dieser Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 berücksichtigt werden können.The control devices 40-43 can do this, as shown schematically in Fig. 2 shown, communicate with each other in a decentralized manner in that each control device 40-43 communicates with every other control device 40-43 through data and information exchange. In this way, a control device 40-43, for example, transmits sensor signals from the sensor device 30-35 assigned to it to the other control devices 40-43, so that data measured locally on a locking device 20-23 is also available on other locking devices 20-23 and for control these locking devices 20-23 can be taken into account.

Denkbar ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass jede Steuereinrichtung 40-43 nur mit einer oder maximal zwei weiteren Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 kommuniziert, wobei Daten einer Steuereinrichtung 40-43 über eine andere Steuereinrichtung 40-43 auch an weitere Steuereinrichtungen weitergegeben werden, so dass eine serielle Kommunikation zwischen den Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 bereitgestellt wird.It is conceivable in this context that each control device 40-43 communicates with only one or a maximum of two further control devices 40-43, with data from one control device 40-43 also being passed on to other control devices via another control device 40-43, so that a serial Communication between the control devices 40-43 is provided.

Denkbar ist zudem auch, wie schematisch in Fig. 3 dargestellt, dass zusätzlich zu den dezentralen Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 an den einzelnen Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 auch eine Zentralsteuerung 5 bereitgestellt wird, über die gegebenenfalls die Kommunikation zwischen den einzelnen Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 durchgeführt werden kann.It is also conceivable, as shown schematically in Fig. 3 shown that in addition to the decentralized control devices 40-43 on the individual locking devices 20-23, a central control 5 is also provided, via which communication between the individual control devices 40-43 can be carried out if necessary.

Zusätzlich können eine, mehrere oder auch alle der Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 oder auch die Zentralsteuerung 5 mit einer oder mehreren weiteren Funktionssystemen 8 in Kommunikationsverbindung stehen. Bei den weiteren Funktionssystemen kann es sich beispielsweise um eine Alarmanlage, eine Heizungsanlage oder eine Klimaanlage handeln, die somit in abgestimmter Weise mit der Betätigung der Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 angesteuert werden kann, um die Bedingungen innerhalb des Raums R zu beeinflussen, beispielsweise eine Temperatur oder eine Luftfeuchtigkeit innerhalb des Raums R in gewünschter Weise einzustellen.In addition, one, several or even all of the control devices 40-43 or the central control 5 can be in communication connection with one or more further functional systems 8. The further functional systems can be, for example, an alarm system, a heating system or an air conditioning system, which can thus be controlled in a coordinated manner with the actuation of the locking devices 20-23 in order to influence the conditions within the room R, for example a temperature or to set an air humidity within the room R in the desired manner.

Die Kommunikation zwischen den Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 und auch mit der Zentralsteuerung 5 und auch den weiteren Funktionssystemen 8 kann beispielsweise über ein Bussystem erfolgen, an das die Steuereinrichtungen 40-43, die Zentralsteuerung 5 und die weiteren Funktionssysteme 8 angeschlossen sind. Denkbar ist aber auch, dass die Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 drahtlos miteinander kommunizieren, beispielsweise unter Verwendung eines drahtlosen Kommunikationsprotokolls wie des Wifi- oder Bluetooth-Standards.The communication between the control devices 40-43 and also with the central control 5 and also the other functional systems 8 can take place, for example, via a bus system to which the control devices 40-43, the central control 5 and the other functional systems 8 are connected. However, it is also conceivable that the control devices 40-43 communicate with one another wirelessly, for example using a wireless communication protocol such as the Wifi or Bluetooth standard.

Über die Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 werden die Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 zum Öffnen oder Schließen in abgestimmter Weise angesteuert, indem die Steuereinrichtung 40-43 über ihre jeweiligen Kommunikationsschnittstellen 401 miteinander kommunizieren und auf diese Weise Daten und Informationen über Sensorsignale der Sensoreinrichtungen 30-35 austauschen. Beispielsweise können auf diese Weise die Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 die Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 zur Einstellung eines vorbestimmten Luftstroms L durch den Raum R betätigen. So kann, wenn ein Luftaustausch beispielsweise zum Beeinflussen der Luftgüte, der Temperatur oder der Luftfeuchtigkeit in dem Raum R, gewünscht ist, beispielsweise mittels der Sensoreinrichtungen 30-35 festgestellt werden, wie sich der Luftdruck an den unterschiedlichen Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 verhält. Wird beispielsweise zwischen zwei Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 ein Luftdruckunterschied festgestellt (beispielsweise ein vergleichsweise hoher Luftdruck an einer Schließvorrichtung 20-23 und ein vergleichsweise niedriger Luftdruck an einer anderen Schließvorrichtung 20-23), so können die entsprechenden Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 durch geeignetes Verstellen der jeweiligen Verstellflügel 200-230 geöffnet werden, um einen Luftstrom L durch die Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 im Raum R zu erzeugen.The locking devices 20-23 are controlled for opening or closing in a coordinated manner via the control devices 40-43, in that the control devices 40-43 communicate with one another via their respective communication interfaces 401 and in this way exchange data and information about sensor signals from the sensor devices 30-35. For example, in this way the control devices 40-43 can actuate the closing devices 20-23 to set a predetermined air flow L through the space R. If an exchange of air is desired, for example to influence the air quality, the temperature or the humidity in the room R, it can be determined, for example by means of the sensor devices 30-35, how the air pressure behaves at the different closing devices 20-23. For example, if an air pressure difference is detected between two locking devices 20-23 (for example a comparatively high air pressure at one locking device 20-23 and a comparatively low air pressure at another locking device 20-23), the corresponding locking devices 20-23 can be adjusted by appropriately adjusting the respective ones Adjustment wings 200-230 are opened to generate an air flow L through the closing devices 20-23 in space R.

Generell können die Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 in Abhängigkeit von lokal an den Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 erfassten und gemessenen Umweltbedingungen angesteuert werden, um eine abgestimmte Betätigung der einzelnen Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 zu bewirken, um beispielsweise die Temperatur, den Luftdruck, die Luftfeuchtigkeit, die Helligkeit, die Luftgüte oder dergleichen innerhalb des Raums R zu beeinflussen. Ebenso ist denkbar, dass eine oder mehrere Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 in abgestimmter Weise geschlossen werden, wenn durch eine Sensoreinrichtung 30-35 außerhalb des Raums R ein Lärmpegel festgestellt wird, der einen vorbestimmten Sollwert überschreitet, um den Raum R von Lärm abzuschirmen und somit den Nutzerkomfort in dem Raum R zu erhöhen.In general, the locking devices 20-23 can be controlled depending on environmental conditions recorded and measured locally on the locking devices 20-23 in order to bring about a coordinated actuation of the individual locking devices 20-23, for example to control the temperature, the air pressure, the humidity, the brightness , to influence the air quality or the like within the room R. It is also conceivable that one or more locking devices 20-23 are closed in a coordinated manner if a noise level is detected outside the room R by a sensor device 30-35 that exceeds a predetermined target value in order to shield the room R from noise and thus the To increase user comfort in the room R.

Oder die Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 können zum Schließen und Verriegeln angesteuert werden, wenn beispielsweise an einer Schließvorrichtung 20-23 durch eine geeignete Sensoreinrichtung 30-35 eine Erschütterung oder ein Bruch beispielsweise an einem Verstellflügel 200-230 oder mittels eines Näherungssensors eine Annäherung einer Person festgestellt wird, was potentiell auf einen Einbruch hindeuten könnte. Durch Ansteuern sämtlicher Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 zum Schließen und Verriegeln wird somit ein Einbruchsschutz bereitgestellt, der die Einbruchssicherheit erhöht. In diesem Fall kann auch ein Funktionssystem 8 in Form einer Alarmanlage angesteuert werden, um einen Alarm auszulösen und geeignete Gegenmaßnahmen, beispielsweise eine Benachrichtigung eines externen Sicherheitsdienstes, einzuleiten.Or the locking devices 20-23 can be controlled for closing and locking if, for example, a shock or a break is detected on a locking device 20-23 by a suitable sensor device 30-35, for example on an adjustment leaf 200-230, or if a person is approaching by means of a proximity sensor which could potentially indicate a break-in. By controlling all locking devices 20-23 for closing and locking, burglary protection is provided, which increases burglary security. In this case, a functional system 8 in the form of an alarm system can also be controlled in order to trigger an alarm and initiate suitable countermeasures, for example notifying an external security service.

Die Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 können auch zeitabhängige Betätigungsvorgänge durchführen, so dass beispielsweise in bestimmten Zeitintervallen oder zu einer bestimmten Tageszeit eine oder mehrere der Schließvorrichtungen 20-23 für eine Lüftung des Raums R angesteuert werden.The control devices 40-43 can also carry out time-dependent actuation processes, so that, for example, one or more of the closing devices 20-23 are activated to ventilate the room R at certain time intervals or at a certain time of day.

Bei dem in Fig. 1 bis 3 dargestellten System 1 ist jeder Schließvorrichtung 20-23 eine Steuereinrichtung 40-43 zugeordnet, die somit dezentral an einem Gebäude angeordnet und jeweils einer Schließvorrichtung 20-23 zugeordnet sind. Fig. 4 zeigt den Aufbau eines vorteilhaften Ausführungsbeispiels einer solchen Steuereinrichtung 40, die ein Schaltnetzteil 400, eine Kommunikationsschnittstelle 401, eine Prozessoreinheit 402, ein Steuerungsteil 403 sowie eine Sensorik 404 umfasst, die zur Ansteuerung der zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung 20-23 zusammenwirken.At the in Fig. 1 to 3 In the system 1 shown, each locking device 20-23 is assigned a control device 40-43, which are thus arranged decentrally on a building and are each assigned to a locking device 20-23. Fig. 4 shows the structure of an advantageous exemplary embodiment of such a control device 40, which includes a switching power supply 400, a communication interface 401, a processor unit 402, a control part 403 and a sensor system 404, which work together to control the associated locking device 20-23.

Angemerkt sei zu Fig.4, dass diese ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer Steuereinrichtung 40 darstellt. Die übrigen Steuereinrichtungen 41-43 der anderen Schließvorrichtungen 21-23 können entsprechend aufgebaut sein.It should be noted Fig.4 that this represents an exemplary embodiment of a control device 40. The remaining control devices 41-43 of the other locking devices 21-23 can be constructed accordingly.

Das Schaltnetzteil 400 ist durch eine elektronische Baugruppe verwirklicht, die - wie schematisch in Fig. 5 dargestellt - eine unstabilisierte Eingangsspannung in eine konstante Ausgangsspannung umwandelt. Das Schaltnetzteil 400 weist hierzu eine Gleichrichtungseinheit A auf, der als Eingangsspannung die Netzspannung eines elektrischen Versorgungsnetzes 7 zugeführt wird. Die Gleichrichtungseinheit A richtet die Eingangsspannung gleich und stellt die gleichgerichtete Spannung einer Schalteinheit B zur Verfügung, welche die gleichgerichtete Spannung in eine Wechselspannung vergleichsweise hoher Frequenz umwandelt und einer Leistungsübertragungseinheit C zuführt. Nach erneuter Gleichrichtung in einer Gleichrichtungseinheit D wird eine stabilisierte, konstante Ausgangsspannung ausgegeben, die zur elektrischen Versorgung beispielsweise der Antriebsvorrichtung 202-232 der jeweils zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung 20-23 zugeführt werden kann.The switching power supply 400 is implemented by an electronic assembly which - as shown schematically in Fig. 5 shown - converts an unstabilized input voltage into a constant output voltage. For this purpose, the switching power supply 400 has a rectification unit A, to which the mains voltage of an electrical supply network 7 is supplied as the input voltage. The rectification unit A rectifies the input voltage and makes the rectified voltage available to a switching unit B, which converts the rectified voltage into an alternating voltage of comparatively high frequency and supplies it to a power transmission unit C. After further rectification in a rectification unit D, a stabilized, constant output voltage is output, which can be supplied to the respective associated locking device 20-23 for electrical supply, for example, to the drive device 202-232.

Die grundsätzliche Funktionsweise von Schaltnetzteilen ist an sich bekannt, so dass an dieser Stelle hierauf nicht näher eingegangen werden soll.The basic functionality of switching power supplies is known, so it will not be discussed in more detail here.

Ein herkömmliches Schaltnetzteil 40 weist einen Prozessor auf, der zur Steuerung und Regelung insbesondere der Schalteinheit B dient. Bei der hier beschriebenen Steuerungseinrichtung 40 ist der Prozessor durch die Prozessoreinheit 402 der Steuerungseinrichtung 40 verwirklicht, die von sämtlichen Funktionskomponenten der Steuerungseinrichtung 40 gemeinsam genutzt wird und insbesondere auch Aufgaben des Steuerungsteils 403, der Sensorikeinheit 404 und der Kommunikationsstelle 401 wahrnimmt. Die Steuereinrichtung 40 weist somit lediglich eine Prozessoreinheit 402 auf, die von den Funktionskomponenten der Steuerreinrichtung 40 gemeinsam genutzt wird, so dass separate Prozessoren für die einzelnen Funktionskomponenten nicht erforderlich sind und somit die Anzahl der Bauteile und Baugruppen der Steuereinrichtung 40 reduziert und entsprechend der erforderliche Bauraum der Steuereinrichtung 40 verkleinert werden kann.A conventional switching power supply 40 has a processor which is used to control and regulate the switching unit B in particular. In the control device 40 described here, the processor is implemented by the processor unit 402 of the control device 40, which is shared by all functional components of the control device 40 and in particular also performs tasks of the control part 403, the sensor unit 404 and the communication point 401. The control device 40 therefore only has one processor unit 402, which is shared by the functional components of the control device 40, so that separate processors for the individual functional components are not required and thus the number of components and assemblies of the control device 40 is reduced and, accordingly, the required installation space the control device 40 can be reduced.

Die Sensorikeinheit 404 stellt einen Anschluss 300 für eine oder mehrere Sensoreinrichtungen 30 zur Verfügung. Beispielsweise können mehrere Sensoreinrichtungen 30 zur Erfassung und Messung unterschiedlicher Umweltbedingungen an die Sensorikeinheit 404 anschließbar sein, wobei die Sensorikeinheit 404 die ihr zugeführten Sensorsignale empfängt und an das Steuerungsteil 403 zur Steuerung der zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung 20-23 sowie auch zur Kommunikation mit anderen Steuereinrichtungen 40-43 übermittelt.The sensor unit 404 provides a connection 300 for one or more sensor devices 30. For example, several sensor devices 30 can be connected to the sensor unit 404 for detecting and measuring different environmental conditions, with the sensor unit 404 receiving the sensor signals supplied to it and to the control part 403 for controlling the associated locking device 20-23 as well as for communication with other control devices 40-43 transmitted.

Die Sensoreinrichtung 40 weist weiter einen elektrischen Energiespeicher 6 in Form einer aufladbaren Batterie auf, die dazu dient, einen Ausfall der elektrischen Versorgung über das Versorgungsnetz 7 zu überbrücken, um einen ununterbrochenen Betrieb der Steuereinrichtung 40 sowie der daran angeschlossenen Schließvorrichtung 20-23 zu ermöglichen. Der elektrische Energiespeicher 6 kann beispielsweise so dimensioniert sein, dass er in der Lage ist, einen Stromausfall an dem Versorgungsnetz 7 über mehrere Stunden zu überbrücken, um auch in dieser Zeit eine Ansteuerung der zugeordneten Schließvorrichtung 20-23 zum Öffnen oder Schließen des Verstellflügels zu 200-230 zu ermöglichen.The sensor device 40 further has an electrical energy storage 6 in the form of a rechargeable battery, which serves to bridge a failure of the electrical supply via the supply network 7 in order to enable uninterrupted operation of the control device 40 and the locking device 20-23 connected to it. The electrical energy storage device 6 can, for example, be dimensioned in such a way that it is able to bridge a power failure on the supply network 7 over several hours in order to control the associated locking device 20-23 to open or close the adjustment sash during this time -230 to enable.

Der der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Gedanke ist nicht auf die vorangehend beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt, sondern lässt sich auch bei gänzlich anders gearteten Ausführungsformen verwirklichen. Beispielsweise können auch Schließvorrichtungen in mehreren Räumen eines Gebäudes, z.B. auch Innentüren oder -fenster, in abgestimmter Weise betätigt werden, um anhand sensortechnisch erfasster Umweltbedingungen innerhalb oder außerhalb des Gebäudes die Bedingungen im Gebäude einzustellen oder zumindest zu beeinflussen.The idea underlying the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described above, but can also be implemented in completely different embodiments. For example, locking devices in several rooms of a building, e.g. interior doors or windows, can also be operated in a coordinated manner in order to adjust or at least influence the conditions in the building based on environmental conditions inside or outside the building recorded by sensors.
