Dazu ist die tragende Bahn aus einer Folie oder Tafel aus Kunststoffmaterial hergestellt, in deren Innenseite die Versteifungsrippen oder -leisten so eingearbeitet sind, dass zwischen zwei aufeinanderfolgenden Rippen oder Leisten aus Kunststoffmaterial jeweils ein großer Abstand vorhanden ist und die außen direkt oder unter Zwischenschaltung von Mittelschichten eine der Verschlussaußenseite holzähnliches Aussehen verleihen und eine ununterbrochene, aus einem Stück bestehende Deckschicht trägt.For this purpose, the supporting web is made of a film or sheet of plastic material, in the inside of the stiffening ribs or strips are incorporated so that between two successive ribs or strips of plastic material each have a large distance and the outside directly or with the interposition of middle layers one of the outside of the closure gives a wood-like appearance and carries an uninterrupted one-piece covering layer.

Nachteilig bei dieser Verschlussanordnung wird gesehen, dass durch den komplexen Aufbau des Verschlusselementes die Bewegung des Öffnens bzw. des Schließens mit einer erhöhten Kraftaufwendung verbunden ist, da insbesondere das Verschlusselement in der unteren horizontal angeordneten Führungsschiene bedingt durch Reibungskräfte und Fertigungstoleranzen nicht optimal bewegbar ist.A disadvantage of this closure arrangement is seen that the movement of the opening or closing is associated with an increased application of force due to the complex structure of the closure element, since in particular the closure element in the lower horizontally disposed guide rail is not optimally movable due to frictional forces and manufacturing tolerances.

Eine weitere Verschlussanordnung ist in der DE 1921182 U1 beschrieben.
Diese Verschlussanordnung für Gehäuse aller Art, insbesondere für Schrankmöbel, weist ein Verschlusselement auf, welches aus einzelnen, aneinander angeordneten Jalousieelementen, die gelenkig miteinander verbunden sind und welche von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position bewegbar angeordnet sind, mit wenigstens einem an der Öffnung angeordneten Führungselement, wobei am Ende des letzten im Schrankmöbel angeordneten Jalousiestabes beidseitig Führungsteile angebracht sind, die über die Breite der Jalousie hinausragen und in vertieften Führungsnuten laufen, die kürzer sind, als die Gesamtlänge der Jalousie und das beidseitig je eine Ausnehmung vorgesehen ist, welche den Teil der Jalousie aufzunehmen vermag, der nach dem Erreichen des Anschlags der vertieften Führungsnut eingeschoben ist.
Die den Jalousiestäben der Geometrie entsprechende Führungsnut an der Öffnung des Schrankmöbels ist in dem für die Jalousie bestimmten Aufnahmeraum in ihrer Breite so ausgebildet, dass sie in der offenen Position die Jalousie aufnehmen kann.
Ab einer bestimmten Öffnung der Jalousie sind nur noch die Führungsteile in der Nut gehalten, so dass die Jalousie sich in dem Aufnahmeraum ohne nennenswerte Reibung weiterbewegen soll.
Another closure arrangement is in the DE 1921182 U1 described.
This closure arrangement for housing of all kinds, in particular for cabinet furniture, has a closure element, which is made of individual, mutually adjoined Venetian blind elements which are hinged together and which are arranged movable from a closed position to an open position with at least one arranged at the opening Guide element, wherein at the end of the last arranged in cabinet furniture blind rod guide parts are mounted on both sides, which extend beyond the width of the blind and run in recessed guide grooves which are shorter than the total length of the blind and the two sides each provided a recess which the part the blind can absorb, which is inserted after reaching the stop of the recessed guide groove.
The geometry of the blinds of the geometry corresponding guide groove at the opening of the cabinet furniture is designed in the particular space for the blind receiving space in their width so that they can accommodate the blind in the open position.
From a specific opening of the blind only the guide parts are held in the groove, so that the blind should move in the receiving space without significant friction.

Nachteilig bei dieser Verschlussanordnung ist es, das zum Öffnen des Verschlusselementes anfänglich eine erhöhte Krafteinwirkung erforderlich ist.A disadvantage of this closure arrangement is that initially an increased force is required to open the closure element.

Ein weiterer Nachteil wird darin gesehen, dass durch die Fixierung des letzten Jalousiestabes in etwa an der Rückwand des Schrankmöbels die für den Verschluss der Öffnung des Schrankmöbels erforderliche Jalousie wesentlich länger sein muss, da diese sowohl die Breite des Schrankes zur geschlossenen Position abdecken und gleichzeitig aber noch in die Tiefe des Schrankes bis zu der Arretierung des letzten Profilstabes angeordnet sein muss. Dies führt zu höheren Herstellungskosten der Jalousie und auch zu erhöhtem Montageaufwand der Verschlussanordnung in dem Schrankmöbel.Another disadvantage is seen in the fact that by fixing the last blind rod approximately at the rear wall of the cabinet furniture required for the closure of the opening of the cabinet furniture blind must be much longer, as they cover both the width of the cabinet to the closed position and at the same time still in the depth of the cabinet must be arranged up to the locking of the last profile bar. This leads to higher manufacturing costs of the blind and also to increased installation costs of the closure assembly in the cabinet furniture.

Die JP 2009 185576 A beschreibt eine Verschlussanordnung insbesondere für Schrankmöbel. Es wird als Verschlussanordnung ein Rollladen offenbart, der in vertikale Richtung (also von oben nach unten bzw. umgekehrt) bewegbar ist, dazu wird im Abschnitt [0074] noch ausgeführt, dass diese Verschlussanordnung auch in um 90° versetzten Schrankmöbeln also in horizontal bewegbaren Verschlussanordnungen einsetzbar sein soll.
Es wird weiterhin offenbart, dass die Aufnahmefläche vertikal und nicht horizontal angeordnet ist. Demzufolge ist auch die Achse horizontal angeordnet. Weiterhin wird auch die Möglichkeit offenbart, an den eingebauten und verschlossenen Rollladenkasten mithilfe einer bewegbar angeordneten Klappe zu Reparatur- bzw. Ersatzzwecken jederzeit heranzukommen.
The JP 2009 185576 A describes a closure arrangement in particular for cabinet furniture. It is disclosed as a shutter assembly, a shutter, which is in the vertical direction (ie from top to bottom or vice versa) movable, this is still in section [0074] stated that this closure assembly in offset by 90 ° cabinet furniture so in horizontally movable closure arrangements should be used.
It is further disclosed that the receiving surface is arranged vertically and not horizontally. As a result, the axis is also arranged horizontally. Furthermore, the possibility is disclosed, at the built-in and closed shutter box using a movably arranged flap for repair or replacement purposes at any time.

Hier setzt die Erfindung ein, die sich die Aufgabe gestellt hat, die Nachteile des bekannten Standes der Technik zu überwinden und eine Verschlussanordnung aufzuzeigen, die wirtschaftlich und kostengünstig herstellbar ist, die bei bestimmungsgemäßem Gebrauch jederzeit ein gleichmäßiges Laufverhalten mit reduzierter Bedienungskraft ermöglicht.This is where the invention, which has set itself the task of overcoming the disadvantages of the known prior art and to show a closure assembly that is economical and inexpensive to produce that allows for normal use at any time a smooth running behavior with reduced operating force.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Verschlussanordnung gemäß den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 realisiert.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.
According to the invention this object is achieved by a closure assembly according to the features of claim 1.
Advantageous embodiments are described in the subclaims.

Es konnte überraschend festgestellt werden, dass eine Verschlussanordnung insbesondere für Schrankmöbel, mit wenigstens einem horizontal geführten Verschlusselement, insbesondere Jalousie, Rollladen und dergleichen, welches im Bereich einer Öffnung des Schrankes von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück bewegbar angeordnet ist, mit wenigstens einem an der Öffnung des Schrankmöbels angeordneten ersten Führungselement, mit wenigstens einer drehbar angeordneten Aufnahmevorrichtung, umfassend ein erstes Aufnahmeelement sowie ein zweites Aufnahmeelement, sich dadurch auszeichnet, dass das erste Aufnahmeelement um eine vertikale Achse drehbar angeordnet ist und das es wenigstens eine, das Verschlusselement wenigstens teilweise aufnehmende, horizontal angeordnete, Aufnahmefläche aufweist. Durch diese erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung ist es somit erstmals möglich, das Öffnen bzw. Schließen von Schrankmöbeln mit horizontal geführten Verschlusselementen so zu realisieren, dass bei der Bewegung des Verschlusselementes nahezu keine Reibungsverluste in den Führungselementen auftreten und sich das Verschlusselement sehr leicht und ohne große Krafteinwirkung von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück bewegen lässt.
Das erste Aufnahmeelement ist dabei vorteilhafterweise so ausgebildet, dass es eine beispielsweise im Querschnitt runde Aufnahmefläche aufweist, auf die das Verschlusselement bei der Bewegung von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position aufnehmbar ist und die durch das Gewicht des Verschlusselementes und die Materialpaarungen des Verschlusselementes sowie des Führungselementes sich ergebenden Reibungsverluste minimiert sind. Die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung führt somit insbesondere mit dem drehbar angeordneten ersten Aufnahmeelement dazu, dass das Gewicht des Verschlusselementes bei der Bewegung von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position über die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes aufgenommen ist und somit die Öffnungs- bzw. Schließbewegung des Verschlusselementes sehr leicht realisierbar ist.
Es hat sich weiterhin als vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass das erste Aufnahmeelement mit dem zweiten Aufnahmeelement in Wirkverbindung steht. Hierdurch ist es einerseits möglich, das Verschlusselement am zweiten Aufnahmeelement so anzuordnen, dass bei einer Bewegung von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück das Verschlusselement um das zweite Aufnahmeelement durch die rotierende Bewegung des ersten Aufnahmeelements wickelbar ist.
It has surprisingly been found that a closure arrangement in particular for cabinet furniture, with at least one horizontally guided closure element, in particular blind, roller shutter and the like, which is arranged in the region of an opening of the cabinet from a closed position to an open position and movable back, with at least a arranged at the opening of the cabinet furniture first guide member having at least one rotatably arranged receiving device, comprising a first receiving element and a second receiving element, characterized in that the first receiving member is rotatably disposed about a vertical axis and at least one, the closure element at least partially receiving, horizontally arranged, receiving surface. By this closure arrangement according to the invention it is thus possible for the first time to realize the opening or closing of cabinet furniture with horizontally guided closure elements so that during the movement of the closure element almost no friction losses occur in the guide elements and the closure element very easily and without much force from a closed position in an open position and can move back.
The first receiving element is advantageously designed so that it has a round, for example, in cross-sectional receiving surface on which the closure element is received in the movement from a closed position to an open position and by the weight of the closure element and the material pairings of the closure element and the Guide element resulting friction losses are minimized. The closure arrangement according to the invention thus leads, in particular with the rotatably arranged first receiving element, to the weight of the closure element being received in the movement from a closed position to an open position over the receiving surface of the first receiving element and thus the opening or closing movement of the closure element being very light is feasible.
It has also proven to be advantageous that the first receiving element is in operative connection with the second receiving element. This makes it possible, on the one hand, to arrange the closure element on the second receiving element such that upon movement from a closed position to an open position and back, the closure element can be wound around the second receiving element by the rotating movement of the first receiving element.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung steht das erste Aufnahmeelement mit dem zweiten Führungselement in Wirkverbindung. Dieses zweite Führungselement der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung ist beispielsweise am Boden des Schrankmöbels bzw. am Oberboden des Schrankmöbels positioniert und nimmt das erste Aufnahmeelement auf.
Hierzu kann vorteilhafterweise das erste Aufnahmeelement in einer Vertiefung des zweiten Führungselementes angeordnet sein. Diese vorteilhafte Anordnung ist kostengünstig und wirtschaftlich herstellbar und führt dazu, dass das erste Aufnahmeelement im zweiten Führungselement drehbar anordenbar ist.
In a further advantageous embodiment of the closure arrangement according to the invention, the first receiving element is in operative connection with the second guide element. This second guide element of the closure arrangement according to the invention is positioned, for example, on the bottom of the cabinet furniture or on the upper floor of the cabinet cabinet and receives the first receiving element.
For this purpose, advantageously, the first receiving element can be arranged in a recess of the second guide element. This advantageous arrangement is inexpensive and economical to produce and results in that the first receiving element in the second guide member is rotatably arranged.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung besteht darin, dass die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes benachbart zu einer Führungsnut des zweiten Führungselements angeordnet ist. Diese Führungsnut ist vorteilhafterweise so ausgebildet, dass die an ihrem einen freien Ende mit dem ersten Führungselement in Wirkverbindung steht und mit ihrem zweiten freien Ende mit dem ersten Aufnahmeelement in Wirkverbindung steht. Das Verschlusselement ist somit aus der geschlossenen Position über das erste Führungselement bis zur Führungsnut des zweiten Führungselements bewegbar, wobei die Führungsnut des zweiten Führungselementes dazu dient, das Verschlusselement an bzw. auf die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes zu führen. Es liegt jedoch auch im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung ohne ein derartiges zweites Führungselement realisierbar ist.A further advantage of the closure arrangement according to the invention is that the receiving surface of the first receiving element is arranged adjacent to a guide groove of the second guide element. This guide groove is advantageously designed so that at its one free end is in operative connection with the first guide element and is in operative connection with its second free end with the first receiving element. The closure element is thus movable from the closed position via the first guide element to the guide groove of the second guide element, wherein the guide groove of the second guide element serves to guide the closure element on or on the receiving surface of the first receiving element. However, it is also within the scope of the invention that the closure arrangement according to the invention can be realized without such a second guide element.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung sieht vor, dass das erste Aufnahmeelement über ein Verbindungselement mit dem zweiten Aufnahmeelement in Wirkverbindung steht. Diese vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung ist kostengünstig herstellbar und führt zu einer schnellen und einfachen Montage der drehbar angeordneten Aufnahmevorrichtung.A further advantageous embodiment of the closure arrangement according to the invention provides that the first receiving element is in operative connection with the second receiving element via a connecting element. This advantageous embodiment is inexpensive to produce and leads to a quick and easy installation of the rotatably arranged receiving device.

Es hat sich weiterhin als sehr vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes glattflächig ausgebildet ist. Hierdurch ist es möglich, verschiedenste Arten von Verschlusselementen wie beispielsweise Jalousien, Rollladen und dergleichen problemlos auf die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes zu führen bzw. zu transportieren.It has also proven to be very advantageous that the receiving surface of the first receiving element is formed smooth surface. This makes it possible to easily guide or transport various types of closure elements such as blinds, blinds and the like on the receiving surface of the first receiving element.

Es liegt weiterhin auch im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes im Querschnitt etwa U-förmige Nuten zur Aufnahme des Verschlusselements aufweist. In dieser vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist es somit möglich, dass Verschlusselement vom ersten Führungselement über die Führungsnut des zweiten Führungselementes in die U-förmigen Nuten des ersten Aufnahmeelementes zu überführen und so für eine kraftarme Bewegung des Verschlusselementes von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück, zu realisieren.It is also within the scope of the invention that the receiving surface of the first receiving element in cross section has approximately U-shaped grooves for receiving the closure element. In this advantageous embodiment, it is thus possible to transfer the closure element from the first guide element via the guide groove of the second guide element into the U-shaped grooves of the first receiving element and thus for a low-force movement of the closure element from a closed position to an open position and back, to realize.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung weist das zweite Aufnahmeelement wenigstens eine Welle auf, die drehbar im Schrankmöbel angeordnet ist. Diese Welle ist dabei so ausgebildet, dass sie leicht drehbar angeordnet ist und so in ihren Maßen dimensioniert ist, dass ein daran angeordnetes Verschlusselement vollumfänglich aufnehmbar ist. Es liegt weiterhin im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass das zweite Aufnahmeelement so ausgebildet ist, dass es eine Achse aufweist die beispielsweise im zweiten Führungselement fixiert ist und um welche das zweite Aufnahmeelement drehbar gelagert angeordnet ist.In a further advantageous embodiment of the closure arrangement according to the invention, the second receiving element has at least one shaft which is rotatably arranged in the cabinet furniture. This shaft is designed so that it is easily rotatable and dimensioned so in their dimensions that a closure element arranged thereon is fully absorbable. It is also within the scope of the invention that the second receiving element is formed so that it has an axis which is fixed, for example, in the second guide member and around which the second receiving element is rotatably mounted.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung ist weiterhin so ausgebildet, dass das zweite Aufnahmeelement wenigstens ein Halteelement aufweist. Hierdurch ist es vorteilhafterweise möglich, verschiedenste Arten, Größen und Geometrien von Verschlusselementen am zweiten Aufnahmeelement zu fixieren, so dass das Verschlusselement bei der Bewegung von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück leicht und mit minimalem Kraftaufwand bewegbar ist.The closure arrangement according to the invention is furthermore designed such that the second receiving element has at least one holding element. As a result, it is advantageously possible to fix a wide variety of types, sizes and geometries of closure elements on the second receiving element, so that the closure element during movement from a closed position to an open position and back easily and with minimal effort is movable.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung ist weiterhin so ausgebildet, dass die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes so dimensioniert ist, dass sie das Verschlusselement in der offenen Position vollumfänglich aufnimmt. Das am zweiten Aufnahmeelemente fixierte Verschlusselement wird somit durch die Drehbewegung des ersten Aufnahmeelementes auf die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes befördert und durch die weitere Drehbewegung um das zweite Aufnahmeelement radial aufgewickelt, bis die Öffnung des Schrankmöbels komplett freigegeben ist. Die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes kann dabei im Querschnitt kreisförmig ausgebildet sein und einen Durchmesser aufweisen, der etwa einem Drittel der Differenz zwischen der geschlossenen Position GS und der offenen Position OS der Verschlussanordnung entsprichtThe closure arrangement according to the invention is further designed such that the receiving surface of the first receiving element is dimensioned so that it receives the closure element in the open position in full. The fixed to the second receiving elements closure element is thus by the rotational movement of the first Carried receiving element on the receiving surface of the first receiving element and radially wound by the further rotational movement about the second receiving element until the opening of the cabinet furniture is completely released. The receiving surface of the first receiving element may be circular in cross section and have a diameter corresponding to about one third of the difference between the closed position GS and the open position OS of the closure assembly

Es hat sich ebenfalls als vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass am zweiten Führungselement eine Umlenkvorrichtung angeordnet ist, die dafür sorgt, dass das horizontal geführte Verschlusselement bei seiner Bewegung von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position sowie zurück stabil geführt ist und von einer linearen Bewegung im ersten Führungselement in eine gebogene Bewegung in der Führungsnut des zweiten Führungselementes führbar und stabilisierbar ist.It has also been found to be advantageous that a deflecting device is arranged on the second guide element, which ensures that the horizontally guided closure element is guided stable in its movement from a closed position to an open position and back and of a linear movement in the first guide element can be guided and stabilized in a curved movement in the guide groove of the second guide element.

Dabei hat es sich weiterhin als sehr vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass die Umlenkvorrichtung eine in einem Führungselement des zweiten Führungselementes angeordnete Welle aufweist, an der wenigstens ein Umlenkelement angeordnet ist. Es liegt ebenfalls im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass die Umlenkvorrichtung an einer im zweiten Führungselement fixierten Achse angeordnet ist. Dieses beispielsweise kreisförmig ausgebildete Umlenkelement lässt sich dabei so dimensionieren, dass verschiedenste Arten, Geometrien bzw. Materialien von Verschlusselementen der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung leicht und sicher bewegbar angeordnet werden können.It has also been found to be very advantageous that the deflection device has a arranged in a guide element of the second guide member shaft on which at least one deflecting element is arranged. It is also within the scope of the invention that the deflection device is arranged on an axis fixed in the second guide element. This, for example, circular deflection element can be dimensioned so that a variety of types, geometries or materials of closure elements of the closure assembly according to the invention can be easily and safely moved.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung zeichnet sich weiterhin dadurch aus, dass das zweite Aufnahmeelement ein um die Welle angeordnetes Gehäuseelement aufweist, welches über ein Federelement mit der Welle in Wirkverbindung steht. Es liegt ebenfalls im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass das zweite Aufnahmeelement an einer im zweiten Führungselement fixierten Achse angeordnet ist. Durch diese vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung ist es möglich, dass die Bewegung des horizontal geführten Verschlusselementes von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück durch die Kraft des Federelements im zweiten Aufnahmeelement realisierbar ist. Das Öffnen bzw. Schließen des im Schrankmöbel horizontal angeordneten Verschlusselementes kann dadurch vorteilhafterweise so erfolgen, dass der jeweilige Nutzer das Verschlusselement von der geschlossenen Position nur kurz antippt und durch die Kraft des Federelements im zweiten Aufnahmeelement sich das Verschlusselement allein über das erste Führungselement in die Führungsnut des zweiten Führungselements auf die Aufnahmefläche des ersten Aufnahmeelementes bewegt. Es liegt jedoch auch im Rahmen der Erfindung, dass das zweite Aufnahmeelement ein um die Welle angeordnetes Gehäuseelement aufweist, welches über einen an sich bekannten Elektromotor mit der Welle in Wirkverbindung steht. Der Elektromotor, dient dazu, dass das Verschlusselement von der geschlossenen Position GS in die offene Position OS ohne zusätzlichen Kraftaufwand des Benutzer bewegbar ist. Weiterhin lässt die Anordnung eines Elektromotors im Gehäuseelement des zweiten Aufnahmeelementes es zu, dass das Verschlusselement auch von der offenen Position OS über die Kraft des Elektromotors in die geschlossene Position GS überführbar ist.The closure arrangement according to the invention is further characterized in that the second receiving element has a housing element arranged around the shaft, which is in operative connection with the shaft via a spring element. It is also within the scope of the invention that the second receiving element is arranged on an axis fixed in the second guide element. This advantageous embodiment of the closure arrangement according to the invention, it is possible that the movement of the horizontally guided closure element from a closed position to an open position and back by the force of the spring element in the second receiving element is realized. The opening or closing of the horizontally arranged in the cabinet furniture closure element can be advantageously carried out so that the respective user taps the closure element of the closed position only briefly and by the force of the spring element in the second receiving element, the closure element alone on the first guide element moves into the guide groove of the second guide element on the receiving surface of the first receiving element. However, it is also within the scope of the invention that the second receiving element has a housing element arranged around the shaft, which is in operative connection with the shaft via a known electric motor. The electric motor serves to allow the closure element to be moved from the closed position GS to the open position OS without additional effort by the user. Furthermore, the arrangement of an electric motor in the housing element of the second receiving element allows it to be that the closure element can also be transferred from the open position OS via the force of the electric motor in the closed position GS.

Es konnte weiterhin überraschend festgestellt werden, dass eine Verschlussanordnung insbesondere für Schrankmöbel, mit wenigstens einem Verschlusselement an dem wenigstens ein Griffelement angeordnet ist, insbesondere Jalousie, Rollladen und dergleichen, welches im Bereich einer Öffnung des Schrankmöbels von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück bewegbar ist, mit wenigstens einem an der Öffnung des Schrankmöbels angeordneten ersten Führungselement sowie mit wenigstens einem Kraftspeicher sich dadurch auszeichnet, dass der Kraftspeicher in Wirkverbindung mit dem Verschlusselement steht.
Weiterhin vorteilhaft bei der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung ist, dass der Kraftspeicher so ausgebildet ist, dass der Kraftspeicher in Wirkverbindung mit wenigstens einem Profilelement des Verschlusselementes steht.
Ebenfalls hat sich bei der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass der Kraftspeicher so ausgebildet ist, dass der Kraftspeicher in Wirkverbindung mit dem dem Griffelement gegenüberliegenden freien Ende des Verschlusselementes steht.
Durch diese erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung ist es somit erstmals möglich, das Öffnen bzw. Schließen von Schrankmöbeln mit geführten Verschlusselementen so zu realisieren, dass bei der Bewegung des Verschlusselementes nahezu keine Reibungsverluste in den Führungselementen auftreten und sich das Verschlusselement sehr leicht und ohne die Krafteinwirkung des Benutzers von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück bewegen lässt.
It has further been found, surprisingly, that a closure arrangement is arranged, in particular for cupboard furniture, with at least one closure element on the at least one grip element, in particular venetian blind, roller shutter and the like, which moves in the region of an opening of the cupboard furniture from a closed position to an open position and back is movable, with at least one arranged at the opening of the cabinet furniture first guide element and at least one energy storage is characterized in that the energy storage is in operative connection with the closure element.
Furthermore, it is advantageous in the case of the closure arrangement according to the invention that the force store is designed such that the force store is in operative connection with at least one profile element of the closure element.
It has also been found advantageous in the closure arrangement according to the invention that the force accumulator is designed so that the energy accumulator is in operative connection with the free end of the closure element opposite the gripping element.
This closure arrangement according to the invention thus makes it possible for the first time to realize the opening or closing of cabinet furniture with guided closure elements such that virtually no friction losses occur in the guide elements during the movement of the closure element and the closure element is very light and without the force of the user a closed position to an open position and move back.

Dabei hat sich weiterhin als sehr vorteilhaft herausgestellt bei der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung, dass der Kraftspeicher so ausgebildet ist, dass er das Verschlusselement ständig mit einer Zugkraft belastet. Hierdurch ist gewährleistet, dass Schrankmöbel verschiedenster Größer mit der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung versehen werden können, so dass hier immer ein selbständiges Öffnen bzw. Schließen der Verschlusselement realisierbar ist.It has also been found to be very advantageous in the closure arrangement according to the invention that the energy storage is designed so that it the closure element constantly loaded with a tensile force. This ensures that cupboard furniture of various sizes can be provided with the closure arrangement according to the invention, so that an independent opening or closing of the closure element can always be realized here.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung ist der Kraftspeicher als Elektromotor ausgebildet. In dieser vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung lässt sich die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung gleichmäßig und leicht von der geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück jederzeit bewegen. Dabei kann der als Kraftspeicher ausgebildete Elektromotor ein Drehmoment von 3 Nm bis 80 Nm, vorzugsweise 5 Nm bis 50 Nm aufweisen.In an advantageous embodiment of the closure arrangement according to the invention, the energy store is designed as an electric motor. In this advantageous embodiment, the closure assembly according to the invention can be evenly and easily move from the closed position to an open position and back anytime. In this case, the designed as a force accumulator electric motor can have a torque of 3 Nm to 80 Nm, preferably 5 Nm to 50 Nm.

In einer ebenfalls vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnung ist der Kraftspeicher als Aufnahmeelement umfassend eine Welle, wenigstens ein Federelement sowie ein Gehäuseelement, ausgebildet. In dieser vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung lässt sich die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung kostengünstig und wirtschaftlich herstellen und eine leichte Bewegung des Verschlusselementes von der geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück ist jederzeit gewährleistet.In a likewise advantageous embodiment of the closure arrangement according to the invention, the energy store as a receiving element comprising a shaft, at least one spring element and a housing element is formed. In this advantageous embodiment, the closure assembly according to the invention can be produced inexpensively and economically, and a slight movement of the closure element from the closed position to an open position and back is ensured at all times.

Es hat sich weiterhin als vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass das als Kraftspeicher ausgebildete Federelement eine Kraft von etwa 1 N bis 80 N, vorzugsweise 5 N bis 50 N auf das Verschlusselement ausübt. Durch diese Dimensionierung ist es erstmals möglich, verschiedene Breiten bzw. Höhen von Schränken mit erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussanordnungen zu versehen, die durch den Kraftspeicher jederzeit problemlos und ohne zusätzlichen Aufwand durch den Benutzer von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück bewegbar sind.It has also been found to be advantageous that the spring element designed as a force accumulator exerts a force of about 1 N to 80 N, preferably 5 N to 50 N on the closure element. This dimensioning makes it possible for the first time to provide different widths or heights of cabinets with closure arrangements according to the invention which can be moved at any time by the user from a closed position into an open position and back without any additional effort by the user.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung ist weiterhin so ausgebildet, dass das Griffelement des Verschlusselementes wenigstens ein Fixierelement aufweist. Durch diese Ausgestaltung kann die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung insbesondere in Schrankmöbeln in der geschlossenen Position fixiert werden, ohne das die durch den Kraftspeicher auf das Verschlusselement wirkende Zugkraft eine selbständige und vom Benutzer nicht gewollte Öffnung von der geschlossenen Position in die offene Position realisieren kann. Das Fixierelement kann dabei als Magnet mit einer metallischer Halterung oder auch als Schloss mit einem daran angeordneten beweglichen Riegel ausgebildet sein. Dabei hat es sich weiterhin als vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass der Kraftspeicher wenigstens ein, das dem Griffelement gegenüberliegende freie Ende der Verschlussanordnung aufnehmendes Halteelement aufweist. Hierdurch ist es vorteilhafterweise möglich, verschiedene Arten, Größen und Geometrien von Verschlusselementen am Aufnahmeelement zu fixieren, so dass das Verschlusselement bei der Bewegung von der geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position und zurück sehr leicht und ohne zusätzlichen Kraftaufwand bewegbar ist.The closure arrangement according to the invention is furthermore designed such that the grip element of the closure element has at least one fixing element. As a result of this configuration, the closure arrangement according to the invention can be fixed in cabinet furniture in the closed position, without the tensile force acting on the closure element by the force accumulator being able to realize an independent opening not wanted by the user from the closed position to the open position. The fixing element may be formed as a magnet with a metallic holder or as a lock with a movable bolt arranged thereon. It has also been found to be advantageous that the energy storage at least one, the handle element opposite the free end of the closure assembly receiving retaining element. As a result, it is advantageously possible to fix different types, sizes and geometries of closure elements on the receiving element, so that the closure element during movement from the closed position to an open position and back very easily and without additional effort is movable.

Dabei hat es sich weiterhin als vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass der Kraftspeicher so ausgebildet ist, dass er die Verschlussanordnung in der offenen Position vollumfänglich aufnehmen kann. Hierzu sind vorteilhafterweise am Gehäuseelement des Aufnahmeelementes 8 entsprechend dimensionierte Halteelemente positioniert.It has also been found to be advantageous that the energy storage is designed so that it can absorb the closure assembly in the open position fully. For this purpose, 8 appropriately sized retaining elements are advantageously positioned on the housing element of the receiving element.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung ist weiterhin vorteilhafterweise so ausgebildet, dass an den Stirnseiten des Bodens bzw. des Oberbodens bzw. in den Seitenwänden jeweils weitere Führungselemente angeordnet sind, die es vorteilhafterweise ermöglichen, dass das Verschlusselement nicht in einem separaten durch eine Zwischenwand von der Seitenwand bzw. des Oberbodens abgetrennten Bereiches des Schrankmöbels positionierbar sind sondern das die Verschlussanordnung durch den Kraftspeicher in diese etwa parallel zu den ersten Führungselementen angeordneten dritten Führungselemente bewegbar ist. Insbesondere bei Schrankmöbeln, bei denen das gesamte Schrankvolumen für den Benutzer wichtig ist, kann die erfindungsgemäße Verschlussanordnung auch in dritten Führungselementen, welche hinter der Rückwand angeordnet sind positioniert werden, so dass das komplette Volumen des Schrankmöbels nutzbar ist.
