Die Sensoreinrichtung weist mindestens ein zur Aussendung eines Taststrahls ausgebildetes Senderelement auf, wobei das Senderelement so angeordnet und ausgerichtet ist, dass der Taststrahl nahe der Nebenschließkante verläuft, und wobei die Sensoreinrichtung mindestens ein Empfängerelement aufweist, welches zur Detektion einer Reflektion des Taststrahls ausgebildet ist. Da der Taststrahl direkt an der Nebenschließkante der Fenster- oder Türanlage verläuft, ist eine optimale Absicherung der Fenster- oder Türanlage gegeben. Da keine aufliegenden mechanischen Schaltereinrichtungen vorhanden sind, ist der Platzbedarf der Sensoreinrichtung minimal.The sensor device has at least one transmitter element designed to emit a scanning beam, wherein the transmitter element is arranged and aligned such that the scanning beam extends near the secondary closing edge, and wherein the sensor device has at least one receiver element which is designed to detect a reflection of the scanning beam. Since the scanning beam runs directly on the secondary closing edge of the window or door system, optimum protection of the window or door system is provided.

Das Senderelement ist ortsfest am Rahmen der Fenster- oder Türanlage angeordnet und ausgerichtet, so dass der Taststrahl an einem Reflexionspunkt am Drehflügel reflektiert wird.The transmitter element is arranged and aligned stationary on the frame of the window or door system, so that the scanning beam is reflected at a reflection point on the rotary wing.

Das Senderelement und/oder das Empfängerelement ist bzw. sind so angeordnet und ausgerichtet, dass sich der Abstand zwischen dem Senderelement bzw. dem Empfängerelement und dem Reflexionspunkt ändert, sobald der Drehflügel bewegt wird.The transmitter element and / or the receiver element is arranged and aligned such that the distance between the transmitter element or the receiver element and the reflection point changes as soon as the rotary vane is moved.

Die Sensoreinrichtung und/oder die Antriebseinrichtung weist bzw. weisen eine Abstandsberechnungseinrichtung auf.

The distance calculation device is designed to calculate the distance between the transmitter element or the receiver element and the reflection point of the probe beam from the transit time of the reflected probe beam.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung können das Senderelement und das Empfängerelement in einem gemeinsamen Sensorelement angeordnet sein. wodurch sich der Montageaufwand der Sensoreinrichtung erheblich reduzieren lässt. Eine besonders montagefreundliche und kompakte Anordnung ergibt sich beispielsweise, wenn das Sensorelement als Gewindehülse oder dergleichen ausgebildet ist. Der Taststrahl kann als Laserstrahl oder dergleichen ausgebildet sein. Die Sensoreinrichtung und/oder die Antriebseinrichtung weist bzw. weisen eine Vergleichseinrichtung auf. Die Vergleichseinrichtung ist ausgebildet, ein Wertepaar des Ausgangssignals der Abstandsberechnungseinrichtung und eines Ausgangssignals eines den Öffnungswinkel des Drehflügels anzeigenden Sensors mit einem Referenzwertepaar einer gespeicherten Referenzwertekurve zu vergleichen.In an advantageous embodiment, the transmitter element and the receiver element can be arranged in a common sensor element. whereby the assembly cost of the sensor device can be significantly reduced.

Im Nachfolgenden wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel in der Zeichnung anhand der Figuren näher erläutert.In the following an embodiment in the drawing with reference to the figures will be explained in more detail.

Die Fig. 1 zeigt eine als einflügelige Fenster- oder Türanlage 1 mit einem Kippflügel eines Fensters ausgebildeten Drehflügel 2, welcher über scharnierartige Beschläge 4 um eine horizontale Drehachse drehbar an einem ortsfesten Rahmen 3 gelagert ist. Der Drehflügel 2 ist über ein als Kette ausgebildetes Kraftübertragungselement 8 mit einer als motorischer Kettenantrieb ausgebildeten Antriebseinrichtung 7 wirkverbunden, welche im oberen horizontalen Bereich des Rahmens 3 verdeckt montiert ist. Eine Bestromung des Antriebsmotors der Antriebseinrichtung 7 bewirkt eine Bewegung des Drehflügels 2 in Öffnungs- bzw. Schließrichtung. Insbesondere bei letzterer Bewegungsrichtung des Drehflügels 2 besteht die Gefahr, dass Körperteile und/oder Gegenstände in den sich verkleinernden Spalt zwischen dem Rahmen 3 und dem Drehflügel 2 im Bereich der Hauptschließkante 5 oder der Nebenschließkante 6 gelangen und dort eingeklemmt werden können. Insbesondere der scharniernahe Bereich der Nebenschließkante 6 birgt aufgrund der dort vorliegenden Kraftverhältnisse eine besondere Gefahr. Die vorliegende, erfindungsgemäße Sensoreinrichtung soll dieser Gefahr abhelfen.The Fig. 1 shows a one-wing window or door system 1 with a tilt wing of a window formed rotary wing 2, which is mounted on a fixed frame 3 rotatable about hinge-like fittings 4 about a horizontal axis of rotation. The rotary wing 2 is operatively connected via a trained as a chain power transmission element 8 with a trained as a motor chain drive drive means 7, which is mounted concealed in the upper horizontal portion of the frame 3. An energization of the drive motor of the drive device 7 causes a movement of the rotary vane 2 in the opening or closing direction. In particular, in the latter direction of movement of the rotary wing 2, there is a risk that body parts and / or objects in the decreasing gap between the frame 3 and the rotary wing 2 in the region of the main closing edge 5 or the secondary closing edge 6 reach and can be trapped there. In particular, the region of the secondary closing edge 6 close to the hinge bears a particular danger due to the force relationships present there. The present sensor device according to the invention is intended to remedy this danger.

Im Bereich der zwischen der Hauptschließkante 5 und den beiden Nebenschließkanten 6 befindlichen Ecken des Rahmens 3 ist jeweils ein Sensorelement 9 der Sensoreinrichtung angeordnet, vorzugsweise integriert in das Profil des Rahmens 3. Beispielsweise kann das Sensorelement 9 in einer Gewindehülse angeordnet sein, welche in eine Gewindebohrung des Profil des Rahmens 3 einschraubbar ist.In the area of the corners of the frame 3 located between the main closing edge 5 and the two secondary closing edges 6, a sensor element 9 of the sensor device is arranged, preferably integrated in the profile of the frame 3. For example, the sensor element 9 can be arranged in a threaded sleeve be, which is screwed into a threaded bore of the profile of the frame 3.

Jedes Sensorelement 9 weist ein Senderelement zur Aussendung eines Taststrahls 10 auf, wobei das Sensorelement 9 so ausgerichtet wird, dass der Taststrahl 10 nahe bei und parallel zu einer der Nebenschließkanten 6 verläuft. In der perspektivischen Abbildung gemäß Fig. 1 ist der Taststrahl 10 des in der Zeichnung rechten Sensorelements 9 gezeigt, während der Taststrahl 10 des in der Zeichnung linken Sensorelements 9 aus dieser Perspektive hinter dem Falz des Rahmens 3 liegt. Das Senderelement des Sensorelements 9 kann als Taststrahl 10 einen sichtbaren Lichtstrahl, insbesondere Laserstrahl aussenden, alternativ kann der Taststrahl 10 aber auch unsichtbar sein, beispielsweise Infrarotlicht. Benachbart zum Senderelement des Sensorelements 9 ist ein Empfängerelement angeordnet, welches passend für die Art und Wellenlänge des Taststrahls 10 dimensioniert ist, so dass eine Reflektion des Taststrahls 10 an einem Reflexionspunkt 11 am Drehflügel 2 von dem Empfängerelement erfasst wird und das Sensorelement 9 dann ein entsprechendes Ausgangssignal generiert.Each sensor element 9 has a transmitter element for emitting a scanning beam 10, wherein the sensor element 9 is aligned so that the scanning beam 10 runs close to and parallel to one of the secondary closing edges 6. In perspective drawing according to Fig. 1 the scanning beam 10 of the right in the drawing sensor element 9 is shown, while the scanning beam 10 of the left in the drawing sensor element 9 is from this perspective behind the fold of the frame 3. The transmitter element of the sensor element 9 can emit a visible light beam, in particular a laser beam, as a probe beam 10, but alternatively the probe beam 10 can also be invisible, for example infrared light. Adjacent to the transmitter element of the sensor element 9, a receiver element is arranged, which is dimensioned suitable for the type and wavelength of the scanning beam 10, so that a reflection of the scanning beam 10 is detected at a reflection point 11 on the rotary wing 2 of the receiver element and the sensor element 9 then a corresponding Output signal generated.

Die Sensorelemente 9 sind jeweils über eine kabelgebundene oder kabellose Übertragungsstrecke mit der Antriebseinrichtung 7 verbunden, so dass das Ausgangssignal der Sensorelemente 9 in der Antriebseinrichtung 7 ausgewertet werden kann und eine entsprechende Reaktion der Antriebseinrichtung 7 auslösen kann.The sensor elements 9 are each connected to the drive device 7 via a wired or wireless transmission path so that the output signal of the sensor elements 9 in the drive device 7 can be evaluated and trigger a corresponding reaction of the drive device 7.

Im Sensorelement 9 und/oder in der Antriebseinrichtung 7 ist eine Abstandsberechnungseinrichtung vorhanden, welche aus der Laufzeit des reflektierten Taststrahls 10 den Abstand XR zwischen dem Sensorelement 9 und dem Reflexionspunkt 11 des Taststrahls 10 am Drehflügel 2 berechnet. Im Bereich der Fenster- oder Türanlage 1, beispielsweise zwischen dem Drehflügel 2 und dem ortsfesten Rahmen 3 und/oder in der Antriebseinrichtung 7, ist außerdem eine hier nicht dargestellte Erfassungseinrichtung zur Erfassung des Öffnungswinkels α des Drehflügels 2 vorhanden, vorzugsweise ein absoluter oder inkrementeller Drehgeber.In the sensor element 9 and / or in the drive device 7, a distance calculation device is provided, which calculates the distance X R between the sensor element 9 and the reflection point 11 of the scanning beam 10 on the rotary blade 2 from the travel time of the reflected scanning beam 10. In the area of the window or door system 1, for example between the rotary wing 2 and the stationary frame 3 and / or in the drive device 7, also a detection device, not shown here for detecting the opening angle α of the rotary wing 2 is present, preferably an absolute or incremental encoder ,

In den Fig. 2a bis 2j ist der Schließvorgang des Drehflügels 2 in 2°-Schritten gezeigt. Der besseren Übersichtlichkeit halber sind die Antriebseinrichtung 7 und das Kraftübertragungselement 8 hier nicht dargestellt.In the Fig. 2a to 2j the closing operation of the rotary wing 2 is shown in 2 ° steps. For better clarity, the drive device 7 and the power transmission element 8 are not shown here.

In der Stellung gemäß Fig. 2a ist der Drehflügel 2 mit einem Öffnungswinkel α von ca. 18° gekippt; dies kann beispielsweise die mit der Antriebseinrichtung 7 und dem Kraftübertragungselement erzielbare maximale Öffnungsweite sein. Der von dem Sensorelement 9 emittierte Taststrahl 10 wird in einem Reflexionspunkt 11 reflektiert, welcher relativ weit unten im Bereich der Nebenschließkante 6 des Drehflügels 2 liegt. Die Abstandsberechnungseinrichtung ermittelt aus der Laufzeit des reflektierten Taststrahls 10 einen ersten XR.In the position according to Fig. 2a is the rotary wing 2 tilted with an opening angle α of about 18 °; This can be, for example, the achievable with the drive device 7 and the power transmission element maximum opening width. The scanning beam 10 emitted by the sensor element 9 is reflected in a reflection point 11, which lies relatively far down in the region of the secondary closing edge 6 of the rotary vane 2. The distance calculation device determines from the transit time of the reflected scanning beam 10 a first X R.

In der Stellung gemäß Fig. 2b hat gegenüber Fig. 2a ein erster Bewegungsabschnitt des Drehflügels 2 in Schließrichtung stattgefunden, so dass sich der Öffnungswinkel α um ca. 2°auf ca. 16°reduziert hat. Entsprechend hat sich der Reflexionspunkt 11 des Taststrahls 10 an der Nebenschließkante 6 des Drehflügels 2 geringfügig nach oben verlagert, so dass der Abstand XR zwischen dem Sensorelement 9 und dem Reflexionspunkt 11 sich entsprechend geringfügig verringert hat.In the position according to Fig. 2b has opposite Fig. 2a a first movement section of the rotary vane 2 in the closing direction, so that the opening angle α has reduced by about 2 ° to about 16 °. Accordingly, the reflection point 11 of the scanning beam 10 has shifted slightly upward at the minor closing edge 6 of the rotary vane 2, so that the distance X R between the sensor element 9 and the reflection point 11 has decreased correspondingly slightly.

Die weiteren Fig. 2c bis 2i zeigen in 2°-Schritten den weiteren Schließvorgang des Drehflügels 2, wobei mit abnehmendem Öffnungswinkel α des Drehflügels 2 der Reflektionspunkt 11 des Taststrahls 10 kontinuierlich an der Nebenschließkante 6 des Drehflügels nach oben "wandert", und zwar aufgrund der geometrischen Verhältnisse - bei angenommener konstanter Schließgeschwindigkeit der Drehflügels 2 - umso schneller, je kleiner der Öffnungswinkel α ist.The others Fig. 2c to 2i show in 2 ° steps the further closing operation of the rotary wing 2, wherein with decreasing opening angle α of the rotary wing 2, the reflection point 11 of the scanning beam 10 continuously "migrates" at the minor closing edge 6 of the rotary wing up, due to the geometric conditions - assuming more constant Closing speed of the rotary wing 2 - the faster, the smaller the opening angle α.

Kurz vor Erreichen der Geschlossenlage des Drehflügels 2, hier zwischen den Stellungen der Fig. 2i und 2j, gelangt die Hauptschließkante 5 des Drehflügels 2 in den Taststrahl 10, so dass sich der Abstand XR zwischen dem Sensorelement 9 und dem Reflexionspunkt 11 des Taststrahls dann unstetig verringert.Shortly before reaching the closed position of the rotary wing 2, here between the positions of Fig. 2i and 2j , The main closing edge 5 of the rotary wing 2 enters the scanning beam 10, so that the distance X R between the sensor element 9 and the reflection point 11 of the scanning beam then decreases discontinuously.

Die vorangehend gezeigte Abhängigkeit des Abstand XR von dem Öffnungswinkel α kann bei Inbetriebnahme der Fenster- oder Türanlage 1 kann als Referenzwertkurve "gelernt" werden und wird in einer Speichereinrichtung im Sensorelement 9 und/oder in der Antriebseinrichtung 7 vorzugsweise nichtflüchtig gespeichert. Außerdem ist im Sensorelement 9 und/oder in der Antriebseinrichtung 7 eine Vergleichseinrichtung vorhanden, welche die aktuell gemessenen Wertpaare des Öffnungswinkels α und des Abstands XR mit der gespeicherten Referenzwertkurve vergleicht.The above-described dependence of the distance X R of the opening angle α can at start-up of the window or door system 1 can as a reference value curve "learned" and is stored in a memory device in the sensor element 9 and / or in the drive device 7 is preferably non-volatile. In addition, a comparison device is present in the sensor element 9 and / or in the drive device 7, which compares the currently measured value pairs of the opening angle α and the distance X R with the stored reference value curve.

Wenn während des Schließvorgangs des Drehflügels 2 ein Körperteil oder Gegenstand in den Taststrahl 10 des Sensorelements 9 gelangt, so befindet sich der Reflektionspunkt 11 dann nicht mehr am Drehflügel 2, sondern an dem Körperteil bzw. dem Gegenstand. Entsprechend kleiner ist dann der durch die Abstandsberechnungseinrichtung ermittelte Abstand XR. Da gemäß Referenzwertkurve der Abstand XR für den vorliegenden Öffnungswinkel α signifikant größer sein müsste, ermittelt die Vergleichseinrichtung einen abnormen Betriebszustand und generiert einen entsprechenden Befehl an die Antriebseinrichtung 7, insbesondere ein Anhalten oder Reversieren der Schließbewegung des Drehflügels 2.If, during the closing operation of the rotary vane 2, a body part or object passes into the probe beam 10 of the sensor element 9, then the reflection point 11 is then no longer on the rotary wing 2 but on the body part or the object. Is correspondingly smaller then determined by the distance calculating means distance X R. Since, according to the reference value curve, the distance X R for the present opening angle α would have to be significantly greater, the comparison device determines an abnormal operating state and generates a corresponding command to the drive device 7, in particular stopping or reversing the closing movement of the rotary vane 2.

Wenn die Vergleichseinrichtung im Sensorelement 9 angeordnet ist, kann beispielsweise die Antriebseinrichtung 7 das den Öffnungswinkel α anzeigende Signal an das Sensorelement 9 übermitteln, wobei im Hindernisfall ein Stopp- oder Reversiersignal vom Sensorelement 9 zur Antriebseinrichtung 7 übermittelt wird.If the comparison device is arranged in the sensor element 9, for example, the drive device 7 can transmit the signal indicating the opening angle α to the sensor element 9, wherein in case of obstacle a stop or reversing signal is transmitted from the sensor element 9 to the drive device 7.

Wenn die Vergleichseinrichtung in der Antriebseinrichtung 7 angeordnet ist, liefert das Sensorelement 9 permanent das den Abstand XR anzeigende Signal an die Antriebseinrichtung 7, welche das Signal verarbeitet, d.h. im Hindernisfall stoppt oder reversiert.If the comparison device is arranged in the drive device 7, the sensor element 9 permanently supplies the signal indicating the distance X R to the drive device 7, which processes the signal, ie stops or reverses it in the event of an obstacle.

Da der Taststrahl 10 direkt an der Gefahrenstelle der Fenster- oder Türanlage 1 verläuft, ist eine optimale Absicherung der Fenster- oder Türanlage 1 gegeben.Since the probe beam 10 extends directly to the danger point of the window or door system 1, an optimal protection of the window or door system 1 is given.

Durch Vergleich des durch die Abstandsberechnungseinrichtung ermittelten Abstand XR mit der Referenzwertkurve ist zudem jederzeit, beispielsweise in periodischen Abständen, ein Selbsttest der Sensoreinrichtung möglich.By comparing the determined by the distance calculating means distance X R with the reference value curve, a self test of the sensor device is also at any time, for example periodically, possible.

Am Drehflügel 2 können entlang der Bahnkurve, welche von dem Reflexionspunkt 11 während der Bewegung des Drehflügels 2 durchlaufen wird, mehrere Reflexionselemente 12.1 - 12.n, z.B. kleine Spiegelelemente, angeordnet sein, welche eine Reflexion des Taststrahls 10 in Richtung zum Empfängerelement des Sensorelements 9 begünstigen. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann das Material der Drehflügels 2 zumindest in dem Bereich der Bahnkurve, welche von dem Reflexionspunkt 11 während der Bewegung des Drehflügels 2 durchlaufen wird, so ausgebildet sein, dass eine Reflexion des Taststrahls 10 in Richtung zum Empfängerelement des Sensorelements 9 begünstigt wird.On the rotary wing 2, along the trajectory traversed by the reflection point 11 during the movement of the rotary vane 2, a plurality of reflecting elements 12.1-12.n, e.g. small mirror elements, be arranged, which favor a reflection of the scanning beam 10 in the direction of the receiver element of the sensor element 9. Alternatively or additionally, the material of the rotary vane 2, at least in the region of the trajectory, which is traversed by the reflection point 11 during the movement of the rotary vane 2, be designed so that a reflection of the scanning beam 10 is favored in the direction of the receiver element of the sensor element 9.

In einer alternativen Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Gedankens kann das Sensorelement 9, statt am ortsfesten Rahmen 3, alternativ oder zusätzlich auch am beweglichen Drehflügel 2 angeordnet sein, wobei die Bahnkurve, welche von dem Reflexionspunkt 11 während der Bewegung des Drehflügels 2 durchlaufen wird, sich dann am ortsfesten Rahmen 3 befindet.In an alternative embodiment of the inventive concept, the sensor element 9, instead of the stationary frame 3, alternatively or additionally be arranged on the movable rotary wing 2, wherein the trajectory, which is traversed by the reflection point 11 during the movement of the rotary wing 2, then on stationary frame 3 is located.
