- the invention also relates to a sliding wall system having at least one profile element of a ceiling guide of the sliding wall system, having such a drive carriage and a sliding wall element, the sliding wall element being attached to the suspension element of the drive carriage and the drive carriage being movably arranged in the profile element.
- Sliding wall systems are used to variably close and reopen openings in rooms. Such sliding wall systems can also be used for a variable division of rooms. Sliding wall systems usually have a plurality of sliding wall elements which are movably guided via at least one carriage or its running wheels in a profile element of a ceiling guide of the sliding wall system. It is known to design these sliding wall systems at least partially automatically, that is to say in particular that at least one of the carriages is used as a Drive car is formed. Such a drive carriage has a drive unit which is designed to drive a running wheel and thus enables a driven and automatic movement of the sliding convertible element along the ceiling guide.
- the drive unit In known drive vehicles, the drive unit is arranged either parallel or at right angles to the axis of the driven impeller. This requires, in particular in comparison to a carriage without a drive unit, a significantly increased space requirement. Depending on the arrangement of the drive unit, such a drive carriage according to the prior art thus has an increased extent in the direction of a vertical axis, a longitudinal axis or a transverse axis of the drive carriage. Each of these arrangements has different disadvantages, with an increased distance between a ceiling and the beginning of the sliding convertible element being required, for example, in the case of an increased space requirement along a vertical axis of the drive vehicle.
- the drive unit is positioned along the transverse axis of the drive carriage, which is arranged perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis and to the vertical axis, the resulting increased width must also be provided by a profile element of the ceiling guide.

- the two running wheels can have a common running wheel axis and the electric drive can also be arranged at least partially in both running wheels. A particularly large and therefore particularly powerful electric drive in relation to the installation space present inside the running wheels can be provided in this way.

The invention also relates to a sliding wall system having at least one profile element of a ceiling guide of the sliding wall system, having such a drive carriage and a sliding wall element, the sliding wall element being attached to the suspension element of the drive carriage and the drive carriage being movably arranged in the profile element.
Schiebewandanlagen dienen dazu, Öffnungen in Räumen variabel schließen und wieder öffnen zu können. Auch für eine veränderliche Aufteilung von Räumen können derartige Schiebewandanlagen verwendet werden. Schiebewandanlagen weisen zumeist mehrere Schiebewandelemente auf, die über jeweils zumindest einen Laufwagen bzw. dessen Laufräder in einem Profilelement einer Deckenführung der Schiebewandanlage beweglich geführt sind. Dabei ist es bekannt, diese Schiebewandanlagen zumindest teilweise automatisch auszugestalten, d.h. insbesondere, dass zumindest einer der Laufwagen als ein Antriebswagen ausgebildet ist. Ein derartiger Antriebswagen weist eine Antriebseinheit auf, die zum Antreiben eines Laufrads ausgebildet ist und so eine angetriebene und automatische Bewegung des Schiebewandelements entlang der Deckenführung ermöglicht.Sliding wall systems are used to variably close and reopen openings in rooms. Such sliding wall systems can also be used for a variable division of rooms. Sliding wall systems usually have a plurality of sliding wall elements which are movably guided via at least one carriage or its running wheels in a profile element of a ceiling guide of the sliding wall system. It is known to design these sliding wall systems at least partially automatically, that is to say in particular that at least one of the carriages is used as a Drive car is formed. Such a drive carriage has a drive unit which is designed to drive a running wheel and thus enables a driven and automatic movement of the sliding convertible element along the ceiling guide.
In bekannten Antriebswägen ist die Antriebseinheit entweder parallel oder rechtwinklig zur Achse des angetriebenen Laufrads angeordnet. Dies bedingt, insbesondere im Vergleich zu einem Laufwagen ohne Antriebseinheit, einen deutlich erhöhten Bauraumbedarf. Je nach Anordnung der Antriebseinheit weist somit ein derartiger Antriebswagen gemäß dem Stand der Technik eine erhöhte Ausdehnung in Richtung einer Hochachse, einer Längsachse oder einer Querachse des Antriebswagens auf. Jede dieser Anordnungen weist unterschiedliche Nachteile auf, wobei beispielsweise bei einem erhöhten Bauraumbedarf entlang einer Hochachse des Antriebswagens ein erhöhter Abstand zwischen einer Raumdecke und dem Beginn des Schiebewandelements erforderlich ist. Eine erhöhte Ausdehnung entlang der Längsachse des Antriebswagens, d.h. entlang der Erstreckung des Schiebewandelements, führt zumeist zu einem erhöhten Abstand der Schiebewandelemente in einen Parkraum, in den die Schiebewandelemente verbracht werden können, wenn sie für ein Abtrennen des Raumes nicht verwendet werden. Ein gesteigerter Raumbedarf für einen derartigen Parkraum ist die Folge. Ist die Antriebseinheit entlang der Querachse des Antriebswagens, welche senkrecht zur Längsachse und zur Hochachse angeordnet ist, positioniert, muss die dadurch bedingte erhöhte Breite entsprechend auch durch ein Profilelement der Deckenführung aufgewiesen werden. Derartige breite Profilelemente weisen jedoch sowohl optische Nachteile auf als auch eine höhere Wärme- und/oder Schallleitfähigkeit, wodurch eine akustische und/oder thermische Trennung der durch die Schiebewandanlage erzeugten Teilräume zumindest erschwert wenn nicht sogar verhindert ist.In known drive vehicles, the drive unit is arranged either parallel or at right angles to the axis of the driven impeller. This requires, in particular in comparison to a carriage without a drive unit, a significantly increased space requirement. Depending on the arrangement of the drive unit, such a drive carriage according to the prior art thus has an increased extent in the direction of a vertical axis, a longitudinal axis or a transverse axis of the drive carriage. Each of these arrangements has different disadvantages, with an increased distance between a ceiling and the beginning of the sliding convertible element being required, for example, in the case of an increased space requirement along a vertical axis of the drive vehicle. An increased extent along the longitudinal axis of the drive vehicle, ie along the extent of the sliding wall element, usually leads to an increased spacing of the sliding wall elements in a parking space, in which the sliding wall elements can be brought if they are not used to partition the space. The result is an increased space requirement for such a parking space. If the drive unit is positioned along the transverse axis of the drive carriage, which is arranged perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis and to the vertical axis, the resulting increased width must also be provided by a profile element of the ceiling guide. However, such wide profile elements have both visual disadvantages and a higher thermal and / or sound conductivity, whereby an acoustic and / or thermal separation of the sub-spaces created by the sliding wall system is at least made more difficult if not even prevented.
Es ist somit Aufgabe der Erfindung, die oben beschriebenen Nachteile von Antriebswägen für ein Schiebewandelement einer Schiebewandanlage sowie von Schiebewandanlagen zumindest teilweise zu beheben. Insbesondere ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Antriebswagen sowie eine Schiebewandanlage bereitzustellen, bei denen auf besonders einfache und kostengünstige Art und Weise eine besonders bauraumsparende Bereitstellung eines Antriebs ermöglicht werden kann, wobei insbesondere bevorzugt eine im Verhältnis zum Bauraumbedarf hohe Antriebsleistung bzw. Antriebsdrehmoment bereitgestellt werden kann.It is therefore the object of the invention to at least partially remedy the disadvantages of drive vehicles described above for a sliding wall element of a sliding wall system and of sliding wall systems. In particular, the object of the invention is to provide a drive carriage and a sliding wall system in which a particularly space-saving provision of a drive can be made possible in a particularly simple and inexpensive manner, with a drive power or drive torque that is particularly preferred in relation to the space requirement being provided.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch einen Antriebswagen für ein Schiebewandelement einer Schiebewandanlage mit den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1 sowie durch eine Schiebewandanlage mit den Merkmalen des nebengeordneten Anspruchs 13. Dabei gelten Merkmale und Details, die im Zusammenhang mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen beschrieben sind, selbstverständlich auch in Verbindung mit der erfindungsgemäßen Schiebewandanlage und jeweils umgekehrt, so das bezüglich der Offenbarung zu den einzelnen Erfindungsaspekten stets wechselseitig Bezug genommen wird bzw. werden kann.This object is achieved by a drive carriage for a sliding wall element of a sliding wall system with the features of independent claim 1 and by a sliding wall system with the features of the
In einem ersten Aspekt der Erfindung wird die Aufgabe gelöst durch einen Antriebswagen für ein Schiebewandelement einer Schiebewandanlage gemäß Anspruch 1, aufweisend ein Wagengehäuse, ein erstes Laufrad, ein zweites Laufrad, eine Antriebseinheit sowie ein Aufhängungselement, wobei die Laufräder durch zumindest eine Lagerungsvorrichtung in Bezug auf das Wagengehäuse um zumindest eine Laufradachse drehbar gelagert sind und zumindest eines der Laufräder durch die Antriebseinheit antreibbar ist, und wobei ferner das Aufhängungselement derart aus dem Wagengehäuse hervorstehend im und/oder am Wagengehäuse angeordnet ist, dass ein Schiebewandelement am Aufhängungselement befestigbar ist, wobei die Antriebseinheit einen elektrischen Antrieb aufweist, welcher zumindest teilweise im Inneren des ersten Laufrad angeordnet ist und für ein Antreiben des ersten Laufrad mit dem ersten Laufrads durch ein erstes Koppelelement mechanisch gekoppelt ist.In a first aspect of the invention, the object is achieved by a drive carriage for a sliding wall element of a sliding wall system according to claim 1, having a carriage housing, a first running wheel, a second running wheel, a drive unit and a suspension element, the running wheels being rotatably supported by at least one bearing device in relation to the car housing about at least one running wheel axis and at least one of the running wheels being drivable by the drive unit, and wherein the suspension element protrudes from the car housing in and / or is arranged on the car housing that a sliding wall element can be attached to the suspension element, the drive unit having an electric drive which is at least partially arranged inside the first running wheel and is mechanically coupled to the first running wheel by a first coupling element for driving the first running wheel.
Ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen ist für eine Verwendung in einer Schiebewandanlage vorgesehen, wobei durch den Antriebswagen ein Schiebewandelement der Schiebewandanlage automatisch und angetrieben entlang einer Deckenführung der Schiebewandanlage bewegbar ist. Ein Wagengehäuse stellt für zumindest einen Teil des Antriebswagens ein Volumen bereit, in dem dieser Teil des Antriebswagens angeordnet ist. Ein Schutz vor Beschädigung und/oder Verschmutzung kann dadurch bereitgestellt werden. Das erste und das zweite Laufrad sind bevorzugt zum Kontaktieren einer Lauffläche, bevorzugt jeweils einer Lauffläche, eines Profilelements einer Deckenführung der Schiebewandanlage ausgebildet, wodurch eine Bewegung des Antriebswagens im Profilelement der Deckenführung der Schiebewandanlage ermöglicht werden kann. Die beiden Laufräder weisen zumindest eine Laufradachse auf, um die das jeweilige Laufrad drehbar im Antriebswagen gelagert ist, wobei bevorzugt die beiden Laufräder zueinander koaxial angeordnet sind und somit eine gemeinsame Laufradachse aufweisen. Eine Lagerungsvorrichtung ermöglicht diese Bewegung, wobei durch die Lagerungsrichtung insbesondere beispielsweise auch Reibungsverluste einer Rotation der Laufräder verringert bzw. minimiert werden können. Für eine automatische Bewegung des Antriebswagen und dadurch des daran befestigten Schiebewandelements weist ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen ferner eine Antriebseinheit auf, durch die zumindest eines der beiden Laufräder antreibbar ist. Durch eine Ansteuerung der Antriebseinheit kann somit eine Bewegung des Antriebswagens im Profilelement entlang der Deckenführung bereitgestellt werden. Ferner weist ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen insbesondere ein Aufhängungselement auf, an dem ein Schiebewandelement der Schiebewandanlage befestigbar ist. Das Aufhängungselement kann innerhalb des Wagengehäuses oder auch direkt am Wagengehäuse befestigt sein. Ausschlaggebend ist, dass das Aufhängungselement aus dem Wagengehäuse derart hervorragt, dass das Schiebewandelement daran befestigbar ist. Zumeist kann in einem Profilelement, auf dem der Antriebswagen bewegbar angeordnet ist, ein Profilspalt vorgesehen sein, durch den das Aufhängungselement ebenfalls hindurchragt. In diesem Fall kontaktieren somit die Laufräder des Antriebswagens das Profilelement auf einer Seite, das Aufhängungselement ragt durch den Profilspalt hindurch und das Schiebewandelement ist dann am Aufhängungselement auf der anderen, gegenüberliegenden Seite des Profilelements befestigt. Bei Schiebewandanlagen kann das Schiebewandelement bereits durch nur einen erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen gehalten sein. Ein derartiges Halten kann aber auch durch mehrere erfindungsgemäße Antriebswägen und/oder einer Kombination aus einem oder mehreren erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen und einem oder mehreren Laufwägen, die keine Antriebseinheit aufweisen, bereitgestellt werden.A drive carriage according to the invention is intended for use in a sliding wall system, with a sliding wall element of the sliding wall system being automatically and drivenly movable along a ceiling guide of the sliding wall system by the drive carriage. A carriage housing provides a volume for at least a part of the drive carriage, in which this part of the drive carriage is arranged. Protection against damage and / or contamination can thereby be provided. The first and second running wheels are preferably designed for contacting a running surface, preferably a running surface, of a profile element of a ceiling guide of the sliding wall system, whereby a movement of the drive carriage in the profile element of the ceiling guide of the sliding wall system can be made possible. The two running wheels have at least one running wheel axis about which the respective running wheel is rotatably mounted in the drive carriage, the two running wheels preferably being arranged coaxially to one another and thus having a common running wheel axis. A storage device enables this movement, whereby through the storage direction in particular, for example, friction losses of a rotation of the running wheels can also be reduced or minimized. For an automatic movement of the drive carriage and thus of the sliding convertible element attached to it, a drive carriage according to the invention furthermore has a drive unit by which at least one of the two running wheels can be driven. By activating the drive unit, a movement of the drive carriage in the profile element along the ceiling guide can thus be provided. Furthermore, a drive carriage according to the invention has, in particular, a suspension element to which a sliding wall element of the sliding wall system can be fastened. The suspension element can be fastened inside the car body or directly on the car body. It is crucial that the suspension element protrudes from the car housing in such a way that the sliding wall element can be attached to it. In most cases, a profile gap through which the suspension element also protrudes can be provided in a profile element on which the drive carriage is movably arranged. In this case, the running wheels of the drive car thus contact the profile element on one side, the suspension element protrudes through the profile gap and the sliding wall element is then attached to the suspension element on the other, opposite side of the profile element. In the case of sliding wall systems, the sliding wall element can already be held by just one drive carriage according to the invention. Such a holding can, however, also be provided by several drive carriages according to the invention and / or a combination of one or more drive carriages according to the invention and one or more carriages that do not have a drive unit.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen weist die Antriebseinheit einen elektrischen Antrieb auf, welcher zumindest teilweise im Inneren des ersten Laufrad angeordnet ist und für ein Antreiben des ersten Laufrads mit dem ersten Laufrad durch ein erstes Koppelelement mechanisch gekoppelt ist. Mit anderen Worten wird das Innere des ersten Laufrads verwendet, um zumindest teilweise einen Bauraum für den elektrischen Antrieb zur Verfügung zu stellen. Somit ist es möglich, das Volumen des Laufrads für den elektrischen Antrieb bzw. die Antriebseinheit zu verwenden. Über ein erstes Koppelelement wird ein Antriebsmoment des elektrischen Antriebs auf das erste Laufrad übertragen. Auf diese Weise kann ein Antreiben des ersten Laufrads besonders einfach bereitgestellt werden. Das erste Koppelelement kann beispielsweise eine Anordnung von Zahnrädern bzw. ein Getriebe sein. Auch eine direkte Ausgestaltung zumindest eines Teils des ersten Laufrad als Bestandteil des elektrischen Antriebs, beispielsweise als Rotor des elektrischen Antriebs, stellt ein erstes Koppelelement im Sinne der Erfindung dar. Insgesamt kann durch die Anordnung des elektrischen Antriebs zumindest teilweise im Inneren des ersten Laufrads bereitgestellt werden, dass kein oder zumindest nur wenig zusätzlicher Bauraum für die Anordnung der Antriebseinheit erforderlich ist. Ein Unterschied im Bauraumbedarf zwischen einem Antriebswagen und einem Laufwagen, der keine Antriebseinheit aufweist, kann dadurch minimiert werden. Auch ein erhöhter Bauraumbedarf in einer Hoch-, Längs- und/oder Querachse des Antriebswagens kann dadurch vermieden werden. Ein besonders kompakter Aufbau eines Antriebswagens für ein Schiebewandelement einer Schiebewandanlage kann auf diese Weise bereitgestellt werden.In the drive vehicle according to the invention, the drive unit has an electric drive which is arranged at least partially in the interior of the first running wheel and for driving the first running wheel is mechanically coupled to the first impeller by a first coupling element. In other words, the interior of the first impeller is used to at least partially provide installation space for the electric drive. It is thus possible to use the volume of the impeller for the electric drive or the drive unit. A drive torque of the electric drive is transmitted to the first impeller via a first coupling element. In this way, the first impeller can be driven in a particularly simple manner. The first coupling element can, for example, be an arrangement of gears or a transmission. A direct configuration of at least part of the first impeller as part of the electric drive, for example as the rotor of the electric drive, is a first coupling element in the sense of the invention. Overall, the arrangement of the electric drive can provide at least partially inside the first impeller that no or at least little additional space is required for the arrangement of the drive unit. A difference in the installation space required between a drive carriage and a carriage that does not have a drive unit can be minimized in this way. Increased installation space requirements in a vertical, longitudinal and / or transverse axis of the drive vehicle can also be avoided in this way. A particularly compact design of a drive vehicle for a sliding wall element of a sliding wall system can be provided in this way.
Besonders bevorzugt kann bei einem erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen vorgesehen sein, dass der elektrische Antrieb zumindest teilweise auch im Inneren des zweiten Laufrads angeordnet ist. Auf diese Weise kann bereitgestellt werden, dass der elektrische Antrieb größer ausgestaltet sein kann, ohne dass dies zu einem erhöhten Bauraumbedarf bezüglich der Abmessungen des Antriebswagens führt. Der Volumenzuwachs des elektrischen Antriebs kann durch die zumindest teilweise Anordnung zusätzlich auch im Inneren des zweiten Laufrads bevorzugt vollständig kompensiert werden. Eine Bereitstellung eines größeren elektrischen Antriebs, der insbesondere auch eine höhere Antriebsleistung bzw. ein höheres Antriebsmoment zur Verfügung stellen kann, kann dadurch besonders einfach und insbesondere ohne einen oder zumindest ohne einen wesentlichen zusätzlichen Bauraumbedarf ermöglicht werden.In a drive carriage according to the invention, it can particularly preferably be provided that the electric drive is at least partially also arranged in the interior of the second impeller. In this way it can be provided that the electric drive can be made larger without this leading to an increased space requirement with regard to the dimensions of the drive vehicle. The increase in volume of the electric drive can be achieved by the at least partial arrangement can also preferably be completely compensated for inside the second impeller. Provision of a larger electric drive, which in particular can also provide a higher drive power or a higher drive torque, can thereby be made possible in a particularly simple manner and in particular without or at least without a substantial additional installation space requirement.
Auch kann ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen ferner dahingehend ausgebildet sein, dass der elektrische Antrieb für ein Antreiben des zweiten Laufrads durch ein zweites Koppelelement mechanisch mit dem zweiten Laufrad gekoppelt ist. Auf diese Weise kann auf besonders einfache Art und Weise bereitgestellt werden, dass ein vom Antriebswagen bereitgestelltes Antriebsmoment für eine Bewegung des Schiebewandelements vergrößert wird, da nun beide Laufräder durch die Antriebseinheit angetrieben werden. Auch das zweite Koppelelement kann ebenfalls beispielsweise eine Anordnung von Zahnrädern bzw. ein Getriebe sein und/oder als eine direkte Ausgestaltung zumindest eines Teils des ersten Laufrads als Bestandteil des elektrischen Antriebs ausgebildet sein. Eine besonders schnelle, kraftvolle und/oder gleichmäßige Bewegung des durch einen erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen bewegten Schiebewandelements kann dadurch bereitgestellt werdenA drive carriage according to the invention can also be designed in such a way that the electric drive for driving the second running wheel is mechanically coupled to the second running wheel by a second coupling element. In this way, it can be provided in a particularly simple manner that a drive torque provided by the drive carriage is increased for a movement of the sliding convertible element, since both running wheels are now driven by the drive unit. The second coupling element can also be, for example, an arrangement of gearwheels or a transmission and / or be designed as a direct configuration of at least part of the first impeller as part of the electric drive. A particularly fast, powerful and / or uniform movement of the sliding wall element moved by a drive carriage according to the invention can thereby be provided
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Weiterentwicklung eines erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagens kann ferner vorgesehen sein, dass das zweite Koppelelement ein Differenzialgetriebe aufweist. Bei bekannten Schiebewandanlagen kann es vorkommen, dass das durch den erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen bewegte Schiebewandelement auf einer Kurvenbahn bewegt werden soll, wobei ein Profilelement der Deckenführung diese Bewegung vorgibt. Dies kann dazu führen, dass das erste und das zweite Laufrad sich bevorzugt mit leicht unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten drehen müssen, um die unterschiedlichen Laufstrecken einer Innen- bzw. Außenbahn in der Kurve auszugleichen. Durch ein zweites Koppelelement, das ein Differenzialgetriebe aufweist, können diese unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten besonders einfach bereitgestellt werden. Insbesondere kann durch ein derartiges Differenzialgetriebe auch bereitgestellt werden, dass dennoch ein Antreiben beider Laufräder durch den elektrischen Antrieb der Antriebseinheit bereitgestellt werden kann. Sämtliche Vorteile, die oben bezüglich des gemeinsamen Antreibens beider Laufräder beschrieben worden sind, können auf diese Weise auch bei einem Einsatz eines Differenzialgetriebes in einem zweiten Koppelelement zu jeder Zeit bereitgestellt werden.According to a preferred further development of a drive vehicle according to the invention, it can also be provided that the second coupling element has a differential gear. In known sliding wall systems it can happen that the sliding wall element moved by the drive carriage according to the invention is to be moved on a curved path, a profile element of the ceiling guide prescribing this movement. This can lead to the fact that the first and the second impeller are preferably slightly different Rotate speeds to compensate for the different routes of an inner or outer lane in the curve. By means of a second coupling element which has a differential gear, these different speeds can be provided in a particularly simple manner. In particular, it can also be provided by such a differential gear that driving of both running wheels can nevertheless be provided by the electric drive of the drive unit. All the advantages that have been described above with regard to the common driving of both running wheels can in this way also be provided at any time when a differential gear is used in a second coupling element.
Darüber hinaus kann ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen dahingehend ausgebildet sein, dass eine Antriebsachse des elektrischen Antriebs koaxial zur zumindest einen Laufradachse der Laufräder ausgebildet ist. Elektrische Antriebe weisen oftmals zumindest im Wesentlichen eine zylindrische Form mit einer Antriebsachse des elektrischen Antriebs als Zentralachse auf. Durch eine koaxiale Anordnung des elektrischen Antriebs bzw. der Antriebsachse des elektrischen Antriebs zur zumindest einen Laufradachse der Laufräder kann somit eine besonders gute Ausnutzung des im Inneren des Laufrad vorhandenen Volumens für eine Anordnung des elektrischen Antriebs bereitgestellt werden. Besonders bevorzugt können die beiden Laufräder eine gemeinsame Laufradachse aufweisen und der elektrische Antrieb zumindest teilweise ebenfalls in beiden Laufrädern angeordnet sein. Ein im Bezug auf den im Inneren der Laufräder vorhandenen Bauraum besonders großer und damit besonders antriebsstarker elektrischer Antrieb kann auf diese Weise bereitgestellt werden.In addition, a drive carriage according to the invention can be designed in such a way that a drive axle of the electric drive is formed coaxially to at least one running wheel axis of the running wheels. Electric drives often have an at least essentially cylindrical shape with a drive axis of the electric drive as the central axis. A coaxial arrangement of the electric drive or the drive axle of the electric drive with respect to at least one impeller axle of the impellers can thus provide particularly good utilization of the volume present in the interior of the impeller for an arrangement of the electric drive. Particularly preferably, the two running wheels can have a common running wheel axis and the electric drive can also be arranged at least partially in both running wheels. A particularly large and therefore particularly powerful electric drive in relation to the installation space present inside the running wheels can be provided in this way.
Bevorzugt kann ferner bei einem erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen vorgesehen sein, dass das erste Koppelelement ein Getriebe aufweist, das insbesondere als ein Planetengetriebe, bevorzugt als ein zum elektrischen Antrieb koaxial ausgebildetes Planetengetriebe, ausgebildet ist, wobei das Getriebe im Inneren des ersten Laufrad angeordnet ist. Durch ein derartiges Getriebe kann insbesondere eine Drehzahl und/oder ein Drehmoment, das durch den elektrischen Antrieb bereitgestellt wird, verändert werden, bevor dadurch das erste Laufrad angetrieben wird. Insbesondere eine Vergrößerung eines Drehmoments kann bevorzugt vorgenommen werden, beispielsweise um auch Schiebewandelemente mit einem hohen Gewicht sicher und gleichmäßig durch einen erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen bewegen zu können. Durch eine Anordnung des Getriebes im Inneren des ersten Laufrads kann, analog zur zumindest teilweisen Anordnung des elektrischen Antriebs im Inneren des ersten Laufrads, ein zusätzlicher Bauraumbedarf vermieden werden. Ein Planetengetriebe stellt eine besonders geeignete Art eines Getriebes dar. Insbesondere weist ein derartiges Planetengetriebe ebenfalls eine zumindest im Wesentlichen zylindrische Form auf, wodurch es besonders platzsparend im Inneren des ersten Laufrads angeordnet werden kann.Preferably, it can also be provided in a drive vehicle according to the invention that the first coupling element has a gear that is designed in particular as a planetary gear, preferably as a planetary gear designed coaxially with the electric drive, the gear being arranged inside the first impeller. Such a transmission can in particular change a speed and / or a torque that is provided by the electric drive before the first impeller is driven thereby. In particular, a torque can preferably be increased, for example in order to be able to move even sliding wall elements with a high weight safely and evenly through a drive carriage according to the invention. By arranging the transmission in the interior of the first impeller, analogous to the at least partial arrangement of the electric drive in the interior of the first impeller, additional installation space requirements can be avoided. A planetary gear represents a particularly suitable type of gear. In particular, such a planetary gear likewise has an at least substantially cylindrical shape, as a result of which it can be arranged in the interior of the first impeller in a particularly space-saving manner.
Auch kann ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen dahingehend ausgebildet sein, dass der elektrische Antrieb ein Antriebsgehäuse aufweist, wobei das Antriebsgehäuse einen Teil der zumindest einen Lagerungsvorrichtung bildet. Die zumindest eine Lagerungsvorrichtung ist zum drehbaren Lagern des ersten und/oder zweiten Laufrads eines erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagens vorgesehen. Eine derartige Lagerungsvorrichtung kann beispielsweise ein Kugellager oder ein Wälzlager sein. Durch eine Ausgestaltung eines Teils dieser Lagerungsvorrichtung durch das Antriebsgehäuse des elektrischen Antriebs kann eine erneute Steigerung der Ausnutzung eines im Inneren des Laufrads vorhandenen Bauraums für den elektrischen Antrieb bereitgestellt werden. So kann beispielsweise das Antriebsgehäuse zumindest abschnittsweise zylindrisch ausgebildet sein und den inneren Teil eines Wälzlager darstellen, wodurch auf einen zusätzlichen Innenring für dieses Wälzlager verzichtet werden kann. Eine besonders gute Lagerung des oder der Laufräder und gleichzeitig ein besonders kompakter Aufbau eines erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagens kann dadurch ermöglicht werden.A drive carriage according to the invention can also be designed in such a way that the electric drive has a drive housing, the drive housing forming part of the at least one bearing device. The at least one mounting device is provided for the rotatable mounting of the first and / or second running wheel of a drive vehicle according to the invention. Such a storage device can be, for example, a ball bearing or a roller bearing. By designing part of this storage device through the drive housing of the electric drive, a renewed increase in the utilization of the installation space available in the interior of the impeller for the electric drive can be achieved to be provided. For example, the drive housing can be designed to be cylindrical at least in sections and can represent the inner part of a roller bearing, so that an additional inner ring for this roller bearing can be dispensed with. A particularly good mounting of the running wheel or wheels and at the same time a particularly compact design of a drive carriage according to the invention can thereby be made possible.
Besonders bevorzugt kann beim erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen vorgesehen sein, dass ein Radius des ersten Laufrads zu einer axialen Erstreckung des ersten Laufrads und/oder ein Radius des zweiten Laufrads zu einer axialen Erstreckung des zweiten Laufrads ein Verhältnis von 0,8 bis 1,2, bevorzugt von ca. 1,0, aufweist. Eine axiale Erstreckung der Laufräder entspricht jeweils einer Erstreckung entlang der Laufradachse des jeweiligen Laufrads. Bei einem Verhältnis eines Radius zu einer axialen Erstreckung eines Laufrads zwischen 0,8 und 1,2, insbesondere einem Verhältnis von ca. 1,0, kann insgesamt für die gesamte Einheit aus beiden Laufrädern und der Antriebseinheit eine besonders gleichmäßige Ausdehnung in allen drei Raumrichtungen erreicht werden. Ferner kann bereitgestellt werden, dass bei einem geforderten, beispielsweise durch das Volumen des elektrischen Antriebs bedingten, Bauraumbedarf Laufräder mit einer möglichst kleinen Mantelfläche bereitgestellt werden können. Ein benötigter Materialeinsatz zur Herstellung der Laufräder kann dadurch reduziert werden.Particularly preferably, it can be provided in the drive car according to the invention that a radius of the first impeller to an axial extension of the first impeller and / or a radius of the second impeller to an axial extension of the second impeller has a ratio of 0.8 to 1.2, preferably of approx. 1.0. An axial extension of the impellers corresponds in each case to an extension along the impeller axis of the respective impeller. With a ratio of a radius to an axial extent of an impeller between 0.8 and 1.2, in particular a ratio of approx. 1.0, a particularly uniform expansion in all three spatial directions can be achieved for the entire unit composed of both impellers and the drive unit can be achieved. Furthermore, it can be provided that in the case of a required installation space, for example due to the volume of the electric drive, impellers with the smallest possible surface area can be provided. The amount of material required to manufacture the impellers can be reduced as a result.
Erfindungsgemäß ist der elektrische Antrieb drehfest am Aufhängungselement befestigt, wobei sich der elektrische Antrieb drehfest befestigt durch das Aufhängungselement erstreckt. Das Aufhängungselement ist zum Herstellen einer Verbindung zwischen dem Schiebewandelement und dem erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen ausgebildet. Durch eine drehfeste Anordnung des elektrischen Antriebs kann eine besonders gute Kraftübertragung zwischen den durch den elektrischen Antrieb angetriebenen Laufrädern und dem am Aufhängungselement angeordneten Schiebewandelement bereitgestellt werden. Besonders bevorzugt kann der elektrische Antrieb in das Aufhängungselement eingepresst sein, wodurch eine besonders sichere und feste, insbesondere biegesteife, Anordnung des elektrischen Antriebs im Aufhängungselement bereitgestellt werden kann. Durch ein drehfest befestigtes Erstrecken des elektrischen Antriebs durch das Aufhängungselement kann die Verbindung zwischen dem elektrischen Antrieb und dem Aufhängungselement nochmals verstärkt werden.According to the invention, the electric drive is fastened to the suspension element in a rotationally fixed manner, the electric drive extending through the suspension element in a rotationally fixed manner. The suspension element is designed to establish a connection between the sliding wall element and the drive carriage according to the invention. By a non-rotatable arrangement of the electric drive a particularly good power transmission can be provided between the running wheels driven by the electric drive and the sliding wall element arranged on the suspension element. The electric drive can particularly preferably be pressed into the suspension element, as a result of which a particularly secure and firm, in particular flexurally rigid, arrangement of the electric drive in the suspension element can be provided. By extending the electric drive through the suspension element in a rotationally fixed manner, the connection between the electric drive and the suspension element can be reinforced again.
Besonders bevorzugt kann ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen derart weiterentwickelt sein, dass das Aufhängungselement zwischen dem ersten Laufrad und dem zweiten Laufrad angeordnet ist. Mit anderen Worten sind die beiden Laufräder jeweils an einer Seite des Aufhängungselements angeordnet, wobei sich das Aufhängungselement nach unten über eine Laufebene hinaus erstreckt, auf der die Laufräder im Profilelement der Deckenführung bewegbar angeordnet sind. Eine besonders gleichmäßige Verteilung eines Gewichts eines Schiebewandelements, das am Aufhängungselement angeordnet ist, auf beide Laufräder kann dadurch bereitgestellt werden, wodurch eine Belastung des Profilelements ebenfalls besonders gleichmäßig erfolgen kann. Ferner können diese Vorteile auch bei einem Laufwagen durch eine entsprechende Anordnung des Aufhängungselements zwischen den Laufrädern bereitgestellt werden.A drive carriage according to the invention can particularly preferably be further developed in such a way that the suspension element is arranged between the first running wheel and the second running wheel. In other words, the two running wheels are each arranged on one side of the suspension element, the suspension element extending downward beyond a running plane on which the running wheels are movably arranged in the profile element of the ceiling guide. A particularly even distribution of the weight of a sliding convertible element, which is arranged on the suspension element, on both running wheels can thereby be provided, as a result of which the profile element can also be loaded particularly evenly. Furthermore, these advantages can also be provided in a carriage by a corresponding arrangement of the suspension element between the running wheels.
Auch kann ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen dahingehend ausgebildet sein, dass das Aufhängungselement ein Lagerelement zur Ermöglichung einer Rotation des Schiebewandelements um zumindest eine Achse senkrecht zur axialen Erstreckung der Laufräder aufweist. Ein derartiges Lagerelement kann beispielsweise als ein Dreh-Schwenkgelenk ausgebildet sein. Ein derartiges Dreh-Schwenkgelenk kann beispielsweise über ein Wälzlager eine rotatorische Bewegung um eine Hochachse, die senkrecht sowohl zu einer Bewegungsrichtung des Antriebswagens in der Deckenführung als auch zur zumindest einen Laufradachse ausgerichtet ist, und über zumindest einen horizontalen Bolzen eine Schwenkbewegung des Schiebewandelements um eine Querachse, die senkrecht zur Hochachse und zur zumindest einen Laufradachse ausgerichtet ist, ermöglichen. Eine Rotation um die Hochachse vereinfacht insbesondere eine Bewegung des Schiebewandelements auf einer Kurvenbahn bzw. ein Anordnen mehrerer Schiebewandelemente in einer Parkposition. Das Ermöglichen einer Schwenkbewegung um eine Querachse hat insbesondere den Vorteil, dass ein Kontaktieren des entsprechenden Laufprofils durch ein durch die Antriebseinheit angetriebenes Laufrad in einem Profilelement der Deckenführung zu jeder Zeit sichergestellt werden kann. Die oben beschriebenen Vorteile eines Lagerelements können auch bei einem Laufwagen bereitgestellt werden, dessen Aufhängungselement ein derartiges Lageelement aufweist.A drive carriage according to the invention can also be designed in such a way that the suspension element has a bearing element to enable the sliding conversion element to rotate about at least one axis perpendicular to the axial extent of the running wheels. Such a bearing element can be used, for example, as a swivel joint be trained. Such a swivel joint can, for example, use a roller bearing to make a rotary movement about a vertical axis that is perpendicular to both a direction of movement of the drive carriage in the ceiling guide and to at least one wheel axis, and a swivel movement of the sliding convertible element about a transverse axis via at least one horizontal bolt , which is aligned perpendicular to the vertical axis and to at least one impeller axis. A rotation about the vertical axis simplifies, in particular, a movement of the sliding wall element on a curved path or an arrangement of several sliding wall elements in a parking position. Enabling a pivoting movement about a transverse axis has the particular advantage that contact with the corresponding running profile can be ensured at all times by a running wheel driven by the drive unit in a profile element of the ceiling guide. The above-described advantages of a bearing element can also be provided in a carriage, the suspension element of which has such a position element.
Ferner kann beim erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen vorgesehen sein, dass der Antriebswagen zumindest ein Anordnungselement aufweist, wobei das zumindest eine Anordnungselement insbesondere am Wagengehäuse und/oder am Aufhängungselement angeordnet ist, und wobei das Anordnungselement zwei oder mehr Aufnahmepositionen aufweist zur Aufnahme eines Leitelements, insbesondere einer Leitrolle. Das Anordnungselement kann beispielsweise einteilig mit dem Wagengehäuse und/oder dem Aufhängungselement ausgebildet sein. Auch ein Vorhandensein von mehreren Anordnungselementen kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein. Durch derartige Anordnungselemente können, insbesondere bevorzugt beliebig, wahlweise und/oder reversibel, Leitelemente an einem erfindungsgemäßen Antriebswagen angeordnet werden. Derartige Leitelemente können beispielsweise zu einem insbesondere mittigen Positionieren des Antriebswagens in einem Profilelement einer Deckenführung einer Schiebewandanlage eingesetzt werden. Durch eine Wahl der verwendeten Leitelemente, die insbesondere bevorzugt als Leitrollen ausgebildet sein können, bzw. der Aufnahmeposition, in der ein Leitelement angeordnet ist, können ferner insbesondere in Zusammenspiel mit Gegenleitelementen in Weichenabschnitten der Profilelemente eine Bestimmung einer Laufrichtung des Antriebswagen in der Deckenführung der Schiebewandanlage bereitgestellt werden, wobei insbesondere auf aktiv angesteuerte Vorrichtungen bzw. Elemente zur Bestimmung dieser Laufrichtung verzichtet werden kann. Auf diese Weise kann ein erfindungsgemäßer Antriebswagen und dadurch insbesondere auch eine Schiebewandanlage insgesamt vereinfacht werden. Dieselben Vorteile können auch bei Laufwägen erzielt werden, die derartige Anordnungselemente bzw. Leitelemente aufweisen.Furthermore, it can be provided in the drive car according to the invention that the drive car has at least one arrangement element, the at least one arrangement element being arranged in particular on the car housing and / or on the suspension element, and the arrangement element having two or more receiving positions for receiving a guide element, in particular a guide roller. The arrangement element can, for example, be designed in one piece with the car housing and / or the suspension element. A plurality of arrangement elements can also be provided according to the invention. By means of such arrangement elements, guide elements can be arranged on a drive carriage according to the invention, particularly preferably arbitrarily, optionally and / or reversibly. Such guide elements can, for example, to a in particular, the central positioning of the drive car can be used in a profile element of a ceiling guide of a sliding wall system. By choosing the guide elements used, which can particularly preferably be designed as guide rollers, or the receiving position in which a guide element is arranged, a determination of a running direction of the drive carriage in the ceiling guide of the sliding wall system can also be determined, in particular in conjunction with counter-guide elements in switch sections of the profile elements can be provided, whereby in particular actively controlled devices or elements for determining this direction of travel can be dispensed with. In this way, a drive carriage according to the invention and thereby in particular also a sliding wall system can be simplified overall. The same advantages can also be achieved with carriages which have such arrangement elements or guide elements.
