Description

The invention relates to an adjustable mounting device for a sliding element, in particular a sliding door, which is held by two guided in a running rail drives and a sliding device with such mounting devices.

A mounting device of the type mentioned is from [1], EP0818598A1 , known. This mounting device comprises a connectable to the sliding door retaining rail, which serves to receive a holding device which is connectable via a connecting screw with a drive. The retaining rail is inserted into a recess which is provided on the front side at the top of the sliding door. The holding device comprises a holding block, which is held in a form-fitting manner in the holding rail and can be displaced axially, which can be locked at a desired position by means of a wedge. This position is chosen such that the drive impinges at the location on a provided in the running rail buffer device on which the sliding door has a desired distance to a door frame. On the other hand, unless the retainer block is fixed in this position, the sliding door either hits the door frame before the drive reaches the buffer device or is stopped at a greater distance therefrom, leaving an undesirable gap between the frame and the sliding door open.

In the holding block, the head of the connecting screw is rotatably supported and fixable by means of a locking screw. In order to align the upper edge of the sliding door horizontally and adjust the connecting screw accordingly, the holding block is pushed out of the holding rail until the locking screw is loosened and the connecting screw with a tool can be detected and rotated. After adjusting the connecting screw, the holding block is moved back into the holding rail and fixed again at the previously determined position so that the desired distance of the sliding door from the door frame is present again. The process for precise adjustment of the mounting device therefore requires time and skill.

From [2], WO2011063535A1 , a mounting device with a holding rail is known, which serves to receive a holding device which is connected via a connecting screw with a drive. The connecting screw can only be adjusted in this case, when the holding device is pulled out of the support rail.

From [3], WO2011161707A1 , An assembly device with connecting screws is known, through the screw head an adjustment screw is guided. By turning the adjusting screw, the connecting screws are guided along a wedge surface and thereby moved horizontally and vertically, which is why a new adjustment of the end position of the sliding door is required after the height adjustment.

From [4], WO9738198A1 , and [5] DE3338146A1 , Further mounting devices are known in which after adjusting the height also a new adjustment of the position of the sliding door is required.

From [6], WO2004040091A1 , A mounting device with a connecting bolt is known, through which a sliding door with a mounted in a running rail drive is connectable. The connecting bolt, which is mounted vertically displaceable in a guide member, is provided with a horizontally oriented cross bolt, which is held in link tracks of a link body. The gate body is by means of an adjusting screw horizontally displaceable, whereby the cross bolt is moved vertically with the connecting bolt. A disadvantage of this mounting device is that the device parts are exposed to high loads, which is why after a long period of operation with signs of wear and damage is expected.

The cross pin must have a relatively small diameter so that it can be passed through the connecting bolt. At high loads or when using heavy sliding doors, the cross bolt can therefore bend if it is not dimensioned sufficiently strong. Furthermore, results between the cross pin and the gate body a minimal contact surface with a correspondingly high contact pressure, which can cause deformation and damage to the gate tracks. After the occurrence of damage, a smooth adjustment is no longer possible. It should also be noted that the connecting bolt can disengage from the link body when it is turned with sufficient force.

It is particularly important to note that not only the entire weight of the sliding door must be supported by the thin cross bolt, but that when hitting the sliding door, for example, on a rail buffer significantly higher forces occur that can lead to the destruction of the mounting device, if not is robust.

Another disadvantage is that the connecting bolt can only be moved vertically over a short distance, which is why a small adjustment range results.

In addition, since the cross pin is held within the link body, the connecting pin can only be rotated together with the entire holding device. Because rails usually are mounted in the area of a building wall, which prevents rotation of the holding device, the assembly is therefore only possible when the drive is removed from the track.

The present invention is therefore based on the object to provide an improved mounting device which is connected on the one hand with a sliding element and on the other hand via an adjustable connecting element with a run in a running rail drive. Furthermore, a equipped with at least one such mounting device sliding door to create.

The mounting device should be suitable for mounting heavy sliding doors and wear-free, especially without damage to the ground, can be operated. The obstacle-free adjustment of the mounting device should be possible even after prolonged use.

The connecting element should be adjustable without the holding device being pulled out of the holding rail.

Furthermore, the mounting device should be adjustable so that the connecting element is only axially displaced and an adjustment of external device parts, such as external buffer devices deleted.

In a further preferred embodiment, the mounting device should be designed such that it can be dispensed with an external buffer device.

This object is achieved with a mounting device and a sliding door, which have the features mentioned in claim 1 or 15.

The mounting device comprises a connecting bolt through which a plate-shaped sliding element with a in one Running rail slidably mounted drive is connectable. The mounting device further comprises a retaining rail, which is fastened in a recess on the upper side of the sliding element, and a holding device, which is releasably held in the retaining rail and having a bearing device in which an adjusting screw is rotatably supported, whose shaft aligned along a screw axis and is connected via a threaded part with a sliding body, which is displaceable along the screw axis and having two mutually parallel backdrop walls, which are provided parallel to each other and inclined to the screw axis extending link elements, engage in the guide elements, which are connected to the connecting bolt, which is mounted displaceably in a guide part along a guide axis.

According to the invention a slide carriage is provided, which is provided on opposite sides with the guide elements, which preferably engage positively in the link elements of the link body, wherein the connecting pin held in a slide carriage first connecting part, a guide member slidably held in the second connecting part and connectable to the drive having third connecting part.

The use of a slide carriage allows to connect the connecting bolt stable with the link body.

Preferably, the guide elements extend along a portion of the link elements, so that guide elements and the link elements lie flat against each other.

This also results in the use of heavy sliding doors comparatively very low contact pressure. Deformations of parts of the device and damage to the frame, which could hinder the adjustment of the mounting device are avoided. Due to the reduced contact pressure, the adjustment of the mounting device is also possible with little effort.

The slide carriage also allows the advantageous attachment of the connecting bolt. The connecting bolt can be fixedly mounted or rotatably mounted within the slide carriage.

The connecting bolt can be advantageously screwed into a drive body without having to rotate the entire mounting device. Thus, the mounting device can also be connected to drives that are already enclosed in a track, which is mounted near a wall. The mounting height of the sliding door can also be preset manually or by means of a tool by turning the connecting bolt, without operating the adjusting screw.

The slide carriage can also be easily inserted into the link body and is kept stable therein.

In a preferred embodiment, the guide elements are held on both sides by the link elements, so that the guide elements do not detach from the link elements and can not rotate either. The slide carriage can therefore only move forward and backward linearly in a specific orientation. For example, wing-shaped guide elements engage in groove-shaped slide tracks. The slide carriage is thus guided and held linearly and can also under force, For example, when hitting the sliding door on an obstacle, do not be thrown off track.

The retaining rail is normally mounted on the front side on the upper side of the sliding element and preferably arranged within a recess. This recess can be particularly easily arranged in a sliding element, which is made of wood. If, for example, in the case of a glass door, a recess is dispensed with, then the retaining rail is placed on the upper side of the sliding door, for example the glass plate, and connected to it by known connecting elements. For example, an opening in the sliding door is provided, through which a retaining bolt is guided, which is held by flange members which are connected to the retaining rail.

The sliding device preferably comprises two mounting devices, which are provided at the top of the sliding element or the sliding door at opposite ends and connected to guided in the running rail drives. By means of the mounting devices, the height of the sliding door can be optionally set on both sides, so that the sliding door can be raised to a desired height and aligned horizontally. That is, by the two mounting devices, which are preferably provided on the front side in recesses on top of opposite sides of the sliding door, the sliding door is raised to a desired height. It is then checked whether the top of the sliding door is aligned horizontally. Deviations from this can be corrected by a final adjustment of one or the other mounting device.

The adjustment of the mounting device is done by pressing the adjusting screw whose head is facing the front of the sliding door and can be grasped by a tool, without the holding device is removed from the retaining rail. The adjustment can therefore be done easily with a few simple steps.

By turning the adjusting screw the link body is moved in the direction of the screw axis, wherein the slide carriage is moved along the link elements perpendicular thereto. The slide carriage is held by the connecting bolt which is mounted in the guide part, and therefore displaceable only perpendicular to the screw axis along the guide axis. During the displacement of the link body with the link elements relative to the slide carriage, the slide carriage is raised or lowered or moved vertically along the guide axis.

When adjusting the connecting bolt, the distance of the upper edge of the sliding element changes from the running rail. A displacement of the sliding door or the drive in the direction relative to the running rail, however, is avoided. The distance between the guided in the end stop sliding door from the side door frame is thus unchanged after the adjustment of the connecting bolt.

The bearing device comprises a holding arm, which has at least one holding element, which can cooperate with a form-fitting locking at least one locking element, which is provided on the retaining rail.

The retaining rail preferably has a U-profile with a central part and side walls provided thereon, which are provided on the mutually facing inner sides of the retaining rail with form elements which extend parallel to the longitudinal axis of the retaining rail facing each other. The holding device is inserted along the mold elements in the upwardly open holding rail and at a position fixed at which the retaining element can engage in the locking element.

Preferably, a plurality of holding elements and / or a plurality of locking elements are provided, which can engage in one another according to the displacement of the holding device within the holding rail. Preferably, the holding elements and the locking elements form mutually corresponding latching elements.

Preferably, the locking elements are provided as latching openings, latching edges or notches on the inside of the central part of the retaining rail. For example, a group of locking edges is provided, which forms a latching surface, in which complementarily designed holding elements can engage at a selected position. The holding elements are accordingly designed latching elements, such as cams, locking edges or locking surfaces.

The holding arm is bendable so that the at least one holding element can be released from the arresting element by the action of force on the holding arm. The holding device can therefore be inserted into the holding device and is automatically fixed in the intended position or is moved to a desired position at which the holding elements can engage in the locking elements.

By bending the holding arm this can be released again. This is achieved particularly easily by using a functional cover, which is pivotally connected to the bearing device and which has a functional lever, which is rotatable against the retaining arm when the functional cover is opened, so that it can be released from the retaining rail under the action of force. The holding device can therefore be solved with a handle and removed from the retaining rail.

In a preferred embodiment, the bearing device has a mounting flange, which projects beyond the facing end face of the retaining rail at the entrance of the recess and which is connected stably or elastically to the connecting bolt. Upon impact of the drive on an obstacle, the kinetic energy of the sliding element can therefore be transmitted via the retaining rail and the mounting flange on the connecting bolt and thus the drive and a rail buffer.

By means of the function cover, which can be rotated for example by 90 °, therefore, on the one hand a tool channel can be opened, through which a tool for adjusting screws can be performed in. On the other hand, the holding arm can be actuated with the preferably designed function cover. Preferably, the function cover is always slightly biased by the support arm integrated therein by the holding arm, so that the function cover in the closed state always rests snugly on a mounting flange.

The head of the adjusting screw is held axially non-displaceable in the bearing device and facing the function cover, which gives access to the head of the adjusting screw after opening. By opening the function cover, the fitter thus gets access to the adjusting screw, which can be rotated as needed with a tool.

The bearing device preferably comprises a guide arm, which holds the guide part, through which the connecting bolt is displaceable.

Preferably, the support arm and / or the guide arm are elastically or telescopically formed or held elastically, so that they are stretchable under the action of force. Forces, which are introduced upon impact of the sliding door on an end stop on the guide arm, can therefore be absorbed by the support arm or associated elastic elements.

This makes it possible to integrate the function of an external buffer device in the inventive mounting device. In the running rail, however, a simple end stop can be provided.

The bearing device may be formed in one piece or preferably provided with the support arm first bearing part made of plastic and provided with the guide arm second bearing part preferably made of metal.

Due to the two-part construction of the storage device, the functions of the storage device can be advantageously realized. In the first bearing part made of plastic, the elastic retaining arm and elastic locking elements, which cooperate with the second bearing part, can be advantageously realized.

The second bearing part made of metal can be advantageously provided with the guide part, which serves the stable storage and secure holding of the connecting bolt. Furthermore, the second bearing part can advantageously be provided with stable form elements, such as a mounting shoulder, by means of which the holding device can be held in a form-fitting manner within the holding device.

The two bearing parts can advantageously be positively connected to each other by the elastic locking elements, which are integrally formed on the first bearing part and engage in complementary locking elements on the second bearing part.

Fig. 1A shows a sliding device 100 according to the invention with a running rail 3 in which two drives 2 are guided, each by a first and a second inventive mounting device 10A; 10B are connected to a sliding door 4. The distance between the sliding door 4 and the running rail 3 is kept as low as possible in order to avoid a disturbing air gap. An access to the mounting devices 10A; 10B is therefore possible only from the side. However, this access can be carried out particularly advantageously in the case of the assembly devices 10A, 10B according to the invention.

Fig. 1B shows a part of the sliding device 100 of Fig. 1A with the first mounting device 10A, which comprises a retaining rail 6 sunk into a recess 40 on the upper side 41 of the sliding door 4, within which a holding device 1 is held. The holding device 1 is connected via a connecting pin 5 with the body 22 of a drive 2, which is guided with two rollers 22 in a running rail 3.

Fig. 1B and Fig. 2A show that the holding rail 6 is spaced from the front side 42 of the sliding door, so that the input part of the recess 40 can receive a mounting flange 16 provided on the holding device 1, which partially overlaps the end face of the holding rail 6. If the drive 2 encounters an obstacle, for example an end stop or a buffer device, within the running track 3, the force exerted by the sliding door is transmitted via the holding rail 6 to the mounting flange 16 and further via the holding device 1, the connecting bolt 5 and the drive 2 on the buffer device (not shown), which absorbs the force and absorbs the kinetic energy of the sliding door 4.

In a preferred embodiment described below, an elastic element which can absorb the kinetic energy of the sliding door 4 is integrated into the holding device 1.

Fig. 2A shows the first mounting device 10A with the holding device 1, which is inserted into the holding rail 6 or removed therefrom.

In the detailed representation D1 of Fig. 2C is the tail of the holding device 1 of Fig. 2A (see the arrow D1) shown.

In the detail D2 of Fig. 2D is the tail of the support rail 6 of Fig. 2A (see the arrow D1), which is completely received by the recess 40 of the sliding member 4 and fixed therein by means of mounting screws 65 which are provided in mounting holes 66 in the central part 62 of the support rail 6 (see Fig. 5A ). It is further shown that the holding rail 6 in the middle part 62 has two locking elements 63a, 63b, which serve to receive a holding element 113, by means of which the holding device 1 can be locked at a selected positions within the holding rail 6. The locking elements 63a, 63b are formed as holes or recesses in the support rail 6 or incorporated.

The holding device 1 comprises in the embodiment shown a two-part bearing device 11, 12 with a first bearing part 11 and a second bearing part 12, an adjusting screw 13, a link body 14 and of a slide carriage 15 (see Fig. 5A ) held connecting pin 5, which comprises an upper connecting part 53 which is screwed into the body 21 of the drive 2. Based on the connecting bolt 5, the holding device 1 can be connected to the drive 2 in a simple manner. By Inserting the holding device 1 in the support rail 6, the connection of the sliding element 4 takes place with the drive. 2

Fig. 2C shows that the holding device 1 is provided on the front side 42 of the sliding element 4 facing the end with a function cover 19, which covers the inserted into the sliding door 4 mounting device 10A optically advantageous. By opening the function cover 19 of the fitter gets access to the adjusting screw 13, as for example in Fig. 5A is apparent.

Fig. 8A shows that the function cover 19 has two hinge holes 199, in which provided on the first bearing part 11 hinge pin 119 can engage. The function cover 19 can therefore be rotated about the hinge pin 119 and opened.

Fig. 2C further shows that the first bearing part 11 has a holding arm 112, on which the holding element 113 is provided. The front side of the holding element 113 is chamfered, so that the guide arm 112 is automatically raised when inserting the holding device 1 into the holding rail 6 as soon as the holding element 113 is guided over the front edge of the holding rail 6. As a result, the elastic holding arm 112 is tensioned so that it is automatically inserted into the holding member 113 upon reaching the first locking member 63a. The holding device 1 can therefore be locked by a simple latching operation in the support rail 6. To release the holding device 1, the holding arm 112 is raised again, so that the holding element 113 can detach from the arresting element 63a. With raised holding arm 112, the holding device can therefore be further inserted or removed from the holding rail 6 again. Also possible is the additional or alternative use of the side symmetrically arranged holding elements which can engage in corresponding holes in the retaining rail 6.

For actuating the support arm 112, the function cover 19 is used in a preferred embodiment, which has a function lever 191 for this purpose, which is provided with the guide arm 112 or a release lever 114 integrally formed thereon (see FIG Fig. 8A ).

Fig. 2B shows a section through the retaining rail 6 in the region of the locking element 63 a along the in Fig. 2A and Fig. 3B drawn section line AA.

In this embodiment, the retaining rail 6 has a U-profile with a central part 62 and side walls 61 provided thereon, which are provided on the mutually facing sides with mold elements 611 which extend parallel to the longitudinal axis of the support rail 6 and which have a hook-shaped cross-section. The mold elements 611 serve the positive holding of the holding device 1, the second bearing part 12 has a plate-shaped guide arm 122, which is provided on both sides each with a mounting shoulder 123. When inserting the holding device 1 in the support rail 6, the mounting shoulders 123 are guided along the mold elements 611, whereby the holding device 1 is held positively and only axially displaceable.

Fig. 3A shows the holding device 1 of Fig. 2A from the front. The first bearing part 11 with the holding arm 112 and the second bearing part 12 with the guide arm 122, which includes the guide part 125 at the front, within which the connecting pin 5, which is connected at the lower end with the slide carriage 15, is mounted vertically displaceable.

Fig. 3B shows the mounting device 10A of Fig. 2B with the holding device 1 inserted into the holding rail 6.

Fig. 3C shows a section through the holding device 1 of Fig. 3A along the in Fig. 3A drawn section line B - B. The section runs through the bearing device 11, 12 and shows that their bearing parts 11, 12 enclose a screw channel 130 in which the adjusting screw 13 is rotatably supported and held.

The two bearing parts 11, 12 each comprise a bearing body 111, 121, the tooth elements 116, 126 which engage positively in one another. On the first bearing part 11 also locking elements 118 are provided, which engage in detent openings 129 in the second bearing part 12 and there are each engaged in a locking seat 128.

The two bearing parts 11, 12 are therefore positively connected with each other and can only be separated from each other by the locking elements 118 are released again.

The two bearing parts 11, 12 can be made simpler than a uniform bearing device. By choosing a suitable material, the functions of the two bearing parts 11, 12 can also be realized more advantageously. The first bearing part 11 is preferably made of plastic, so that an elastic retaining arm 112 can be realized, which is preferably not only bendable, so that the retaining element 113 can be solved, but is also stretchable so that the kinetic energy of the sliding door 4 absorbs in the end stop can be without burdening the device parts and disturbing noises result.

Fig. 4 shows the holding device 1 of Fig. 3A with the first bearing part 11, which has a bearing channel 110, in which the adjusting screw 13 is inserted. Furthermore, the tooth elements 116 and the locking elements 118 are shown, which are integrally connected to the bearing body 111 of the first bearing part 11. Furthermore, it can be seen that the function cover 19 is coupled to the first bearing part 11. Through the flange member 16 can be intervened in the first bearing part 11 as soon as the function cover 19 is opened.

Also shown in isolation is the second bearing part 12 with the second bearing body 121, which comprises the tooth elements 126, the detent openings 129 and the guide arm 122 with the mounting shoulders 123 provided on both sides. On the guide arm 122, the guide part 125 is provided on the front side, which has a guide opening 1250 through which the connecting bolt 5 can be inserted into the holding device 1.

The connecting bolt 5 has a first connecting part 51 which can be inserted into the slide carriage 15, a second connecting part 52, which is held vertically displaceably in the guide part 125, and a third connecting part 53 which can be connected to the drive 2, which is preferably provided with a thread that is inserted into the body 21 of the associated drive 2 is screwed.

The slide carriage 15, which is slidably mounted within the link body 14, comprises a receiving opening 151 for receiving the first connecting part 51 of the connecting bolt 5 and wing-shaped or cuboid first and second guide elements 152A, 152B on opposite sides.

The gate body 14 comprises a threaded part 141 with a threaded bore into which the shaft 132 of the adjusting screw 13 can engage. Furthermore, the gate body 14 comprises a first and a second gate wall 143A; 143B, on the facing sides with first and second gate elements 142B (142A is not shown). The link elements 142A, 142B are formed as mutually parallel guide grooves or slide tracks in the link walls 143A, 143B and extend transversely to the longitudinal axis of the adjusting screw 13 and the screw axis y.

The two link walls 143A, 143B include a gate channel 140 into which the slide carriage 15 can be inserted such that its guide elements 152A, 152B can engage in the web-shaped link elements 142A, 142B. The slide carriage 15 can therefore be moved in the slide channel 140 from the bottom upwards obliquely to the screw axis y.

Fig. 5A shows a section through the mounting device 10 of Fig. 3B along the section line C - C. Shown is the vertically in the direction of the screw axis y cut bearing device 11, 12 with the first bearing part 11 and the second bearing part 12, between which the head 131 of the adjusting screw 13 and the shaft 132 of the adjusting screw 13 are held by the threaded portion 141 in the guide body 14 extends into it. The head 131 of the adjusting screw 13 is rotatably held in a screw seat 127, but not axially displaceable, which is formed in the second bearing part 12. Further, the screw head 131 is supported by a support body 117, which is provided on the first bearing part 11.

The bearing device 11, 12 is positively held by the provided on the side wall 61 of the support rail 6 mold element 611, which bears against the second bearing part 12 and the second bearing body 121 and the guide arm 122.

The holding device 1 is axially displaceable within the holding rail 6 until the holding element 113 engages in the selected locking element 63 a, as shown in the detail D3 of Fig. 5B is shown (see the arrow D3 in Fig. 5A ). Therein, the functional cover 19 facing end portion of the support arm 112 is shown, which is provided with the locking element 113 and a release lever 114 which can cooperate with the provided on the function cover 19 function lever 191.

The retaining element 113 has an inclined flank 630 facing the retaining rail 6, which is guided over the upper front edge of the middle part 62 of the retaining rail 6 when the retaining device 1 is inserted into the retaining rail 6, whereby the retaining arm 112 is bent upwards. In this way, the holding device 1 can be inserted into the support rail 6, without the support arm 112 has to be raised otherwise. Alternatively, the middle part 62 of the retaining rail 6 can be provided with an inclined surface on the face side, over which the retaining element 113 can slide upwards into the retaining rail 6 and simultaneously lift the retaining arm 112. In this case, a holding member 113 can be used, which is completely adapted to the locking member 63 a and can be held by this safer.

In the detail D4 of Fig. 5C is the slide carriage 15 of Fig. 5A shown (see the arrow D4 in Fig. 5A ), in which the first connecting part 51 of the connecting pin 5 is fixedly or preferably rotatably supported. The second connecting part 52 is displaceably mounted in the guide part 125 along the guide axis x. The connecting pin 5 is therefore held such that it is only along the guide axis x perpendicular to the screw axis y is displaceable. Further, the slide wall 143B is shown with the groove-shaped gate element 142B, in which engages the second guide member 152B of the slide carriage 15.

Fig. 6A shows a sectional view of the gate body 14 with the second link element 142B, which has a rectangular profile and the second link wall 143B traversed from bottom to top throughout. Furthermore, the slide carriage is shown, which is moved vertically as soon as a horizontal displacement of the slide body 14 takes place.

Fig. 6B shows the complete slide carriage 15 of Fig. 6A a receiving opening 151 for the connecting bolt 5 and on opposite sides of the two guide elements 152A, 152B has. In this preferred embodiment, the guide elements 152A, 152B are held positively in the link elements 142A, 142B and can only be displaced along a straight line.

Fig. 7A shows the mounting device 10 in the sectional view of Fig. 5A moved completely with the slide carriage 15 and the connecting pin 5 down.

Fig. 7B shows the mounting device 10 in the sectional view of Fig. 5A with the slide carriage 15 and the connecting pin 5 at half height.

Fig. 7C shows the mounting device 10 in the sectional view of Fig. 5A moved completely with the slide carriage 15 and the connecting pin 5 upwards.

It can be seen that the connecting pin 5 has been displaced only axially along the guide axis x, while the gate body 14 has been displaced only axially along the screw axis y.

Fig. 8A shows the first bearing part 11 of Fig. 4 It can be seen that the mounting flange 16 consists of two bar-shaped parts, which are provided at the bottom with opposing hinge pins 119 which can engage in openings 199 in the function cover. The function cover 19 held by the hinge pins 119 has the function lever 191, which can cooperate with the release lever 114, which is provided on the front side on the support arm 112.

Fig. 8B shows the first bearing part 11 of Fig. 8A with a preferably designed retaining arm 112, which is bendable and stretchable. The holding arm 112 is designed S-shaped and thus stretchable. At the same time, the end can be bent upward with the holding member 113 to release the holding member 113 from one of the locking members 63a or 63b.

Regarding Fig. 5C has already been stated that the first connecting part 51 of the connecting pin 5 is preferably rotatably held in slide carriage 15. Fig. 9 shows the front part of the holding device 1 of Fig. 5A with a preferably designed connecting bolt 5 which is provided between the first connecting part 51 and the third connecting part 53 with a first tool coupling 54 which can be coupled by a wrench T1 to rotate the connecting bolt 5.

At the lower end of the connecting bolt 5, a second tool coupling 55 is provided, in which a tool of a screwdriver T2 is used to rotate the connecting pin 5.

The holding device 1 can therefore easily with a already mounted within a track rail drive be connected by the connecting bolt 5 by means of the first or second tool T1, T2, or manually rotated in the body of the drive. Preferably, the adjustment of the connecting pin 5 in the in Fig. 7B or Fig. 9 shown position of the slide carriage 15, which is located approximately halfway inside the gate body 14. After this mounting of the holding device 1, the slide carriage 15 is located in the middle of the adjustment range which can be traveled by means of the adjusting screw 13. If the slide carriage 15 should later reach the edge of the adjustment range, then this can be easily returned to the central position by means of the first tool T1.

For the purpose of connection with the slide carriage 15, the first connecting part 51 of the connecting bolt 5 is provided with an annular groove 511 within which a plurality of retaining seats 512 are arranged. In the slide carriage 15, a coupling part 7 and a pin 71 is used with a spring-supported ball 72, which is pressed into a facing retaining seat 512. Upon rotation of the connecting bolt 5, the ball 72 is displaced out of the holding seat 512, so that it is e.g. only after a half turn or quarter turn of the connecting bolt to enter the next following holding seat 512 and fix the connecting pin 5 again. The connecting pin 5 can therefore be rotated stepwise in this preferred embodiment of a first position to a second position in which is fixed again.

Fig. 10A shows in sectional view the connecting pin 5 and the slide carriage 15 of Fig. 9 during assembly. The slide carriage 15 is fork-shaped and has a retaining flange 155, which forms a U-profile, whose legs, starting from a semicircular flange area, run parallel to one another and at an angle to the screw axis y and form an entrance ramp 154. The first connecting part 51 can therefore be introduced obliquely along the entrance ramp 154 in the slide carriage 15 and then aligned vertically. The retaining flange 155 engages in the sequence in the annular groove 511 in the first connecting part 51 and holds it firmly. The inclined entrance ramp 154, however, prevents the connecting pin 5 can be released from the engagement of the retaining flange 155 again.

The fork-shaped configuration of the slide carriage 15 thus allows to receive a one-piece connecting pin 5, to engage in an annular groove provided therein and to keep the connecting pin rotatable.

It should be noted that several cooperating device parts are interchangeable without changing the function of interaction. Thus, the connecting bolt 5 can be provided with a retaining flange and the slide carriage 15 with a retaining 511. Likewise, the embodiments of the guide elements 152 of the slide carriage 15 and the link elements 142 of the link body 14 are interchangeable.

Fig. 10B shows a sectional view of the connecting pin 5 and the fork-shaped slide carriage 15 of Fig. 10A after assembly, after which the spring-supported ball 72 of the coupling part 7 engages in a retaining seat 512 in the connecting pin 5 and fixes it.

Fig. 10C shows the connecting pin 5 and the fork-shaped slide carriage 15 of Fig. 10B in full representation.
