Definitions

• the present invention relates to a door fitting with a sensor and a door with a sensor, in particular with a door fitting with a sensor.
• Sensors are provided in particular for doors that open and close automatically. These can be sensors that detect people moving towards the door, for example. Such a sensor can be connected to a controller that controls one or more drives. If the sensor detects a person, the sensor reports this to the controller. The control switches on the drive or drives of the door in order to open it. If no person is detected in the area detected by the sensor when the door is open, this is also reported by the sensor to the control, so that the control activates the drive or drives of the door to close the door.
• Sensors on doors are also used for alarms, in particular to monitor whether the door is or is being closed or opened without authorization. This can be used for burglary protection or an entrance or exit control. Magnetic switches (especially reed switches) are often used for this purpose.
• the present invention is also based on the idea of using sensors on doors.
• the sensors should not be used to control drives or to monitor the opening status of the door.
• the sensors used according to the invention should primarily serve to detect the use of the door, but also changes in the door, which can result in a malfunction of the door or parts of the door. This should make it possible to avoid failure of the door or parts of the door through preventive action, so that the functionality of the door and all of its parts is always guaranteed.
• the data recorded by the sensors used can be evaluated at one or more points.
• the evaluation of the recorded data makes it possible to recognize the malfunction of a door without having to inspect the door on site. A person who is engaged in the maintenance of the door can then be specifically sent to this door in order to maintain and / or repair it.
• organizations that operate a large number of doors in or on one or more buildings can thus save resources: They can dispense with regular inspections of the doors by house technicians and can still ensure that the doors are maintained and / or repaired in a targeted manner.
• the benefits of the sensors go even further: by recording how often the door or parts of the door are used or operated, the procurement of spare parts can also be optimized. Based on the known and average service life of the door or parts of the door, a spare part can be procured before it fails and - depending on the user's wishes and requirements - can be installed immediately or kept available until the time of failure and then installed.
• the recorded and collected sensor data can provide a reason for the failure of the door or part of the door.
• This information can be informative, in particular, for the manufacturer of the door or the parts of the door, in particular of hardware parts of the door. They can use the data as an opportunity to improve the hardware components.
• the sensor can be part of the door fitting or the sensors can be parts of the door fitting or each sensor is part of the door fitting or one of the door fittings.
• the door fitting can in particular be a door handle, a hinge, a seal, in particular a door seal that can be automatically raised or lowered, or a device for finger protection.
• the sensor can also be part of a sealing profile, for example a rebate seal.
• the door can in particular be an interior door.
• the door can be a door leaf made of wood, a glass and / or a metal.
• the signal can be transmitted to a network interface of the door fitting or the door via the output of the sensor.
• the network interface can be the interface of a wired or wireless network.
• the variable represented by the signal can be converted into data in the network interface and sent to the at least one processing unit via the network.
• the data can be evaluated and / or stored in the processing unit.
• the data or an evaluation of the data can be uploaded from the processing unit via the network or another network to a cloud storage device.
• This data can also be used by others other than the door user, for example doors or hardware manufacturers.
• the processing unit can determine malfunctions or the imminent reaching of the service life of the door or parts of the door and display the malfunctions or the imminent reaching of the service life via a user interface. A user can thereby be prompted to carry out a check, maintenance or repair of the door or the parts of the door.
• a door fitting according to the invention has a sensor for detecting a physical variable or actuations of the door fitting.
• the door fitting can be, for example, a door handle, a hinge, a seal, in particular a seal that can be raised or lowered, a device for finger protection or the like.
• a door fitting according to the invention can have a network interface for connecting the door fitting to a wired or wireless network.
• the network interface can preferably be used to convert an output signal from the sensor into a data format that corresponds to a protocol of the network that can be connected to the interface.
• the network interface is intended to transmit this data over the network.
• a door according to the invention has a door fitting, in particular a door fitting according to the invention.
• the door has a sensor for detecting a physical variable or actuations of the door fitting or the door.
• An acceleration sensor or a gyro inclination sensor can be used to record the acceleration, speed, oscillations or vibrations of a door leaf when the door is opened or closed. This makes it possible to record a course of the acceleration, the speed, the oscillations or vibrations of the door when opening or closing. Changes in the curve progression compared to a reference progression can then be observed, for example, by considering absolute values or value differences of the recorded variables. This allows, for example, to see whether the opening and closing resistance has changed. A change in the opening and closing resistance can be caused by a defect in the door or in part of the door. The cause can then be investigated by specifically checking the door.
• rotational movements or inclinations with respect to a reference plane can also be recorded. This makes it possible to detect changes in positions, for example due to deformation or warpage or lowering of the door or parts of the door, including the door leaf or door fittings, which have arisen, for example, due to a defect. If such a change in the door or in parts of the door is detected, it can be investigated in a targeted manner.
• angles and their changes can be recorded. This makes it possible, for example, to detect the opening angle of a door leaf of a swing door or the angle of rotation of a key in a door lock or a door handle. For example, do you know the angle of rotation a door handle, you can tell whether the door handle is hanging down or not due to a weakening force or a defect in a return spring. In addition, if the restoring force of the spring is known, based on the detected position of the door handle, it is possible to deduce the operating force that a user has applied to operate the door handle and bring it into the position reached.
• the position of a door handle can basically be recorded with a linear incremental encoder.
• the sensor can be a Hall sensor with which a magnetic field or its change, for example due to a relative movement of two components, can be detected. By detecting the change in the magnetic field, the relative speed of the two components can also be determined.
• a Hall sensor can therefore be used at the points where a position or its change is to be detected. It can be used as a proximity sensor or a speed sensor.
• the sensor can be a proximity sensor that works on any measuring principle.
• a proximity sensor can be used to detect an angle, a path, a distance or a speed. For example, it can be used to determine a position.
• Infrared sensors laser sensors or ultrasonic sensors can also be used as sensors for measuring angles, paths, distances or speeds. These can be used to record a distance, a path, a position, a length, width, height, thickness or strength, an angle, an inclination, a speed, a movement or a wavelength.
• the sensor can be a force sensor.
• a force sensor for example, an expansion or stretching of the door or parts of the door, a pressing force of a door leaf on a frame or of seals on a frame, a door leaf or the floor can be detected. It is also possible to detect a closing and opening force that is necessary to close or open the door.
• the force that has to be used to operate a door handle can also be recorded with a force sensor.
• the force sensor can comprise a strain gauge.
• the sensor can be a sound sensor, for example a microphone.
• a sound sensor for example a microphone.
• a reduced attenuation of the sound can in particular indicate an impaired function of a seal.
• the sensor can be a humidity sensor. Moisture can be detected, for example, by measuring electrical conductivity. With a humidity sensor, for example, the humidity or the water content of parts of the door could be recorded. Measuring moisture can help identify a cause of swelling or warping in materials such as wood or some elastomers.
• the sensor can be a temperature sensor.
• a change in temperature or a particular temperature can indicate a fire or increased friction.
• the friction can, for example, lead to increased wear on seals.
• the increased friction can arise, for example, due to assembly errors or incorrect setting of the seal. In unfavorable cases, however, an increased temperature can arise not only due to friction. It is possible, for example, for the door to be mounted in an area in which the door and the parts of the door are heated up considerably, for example due to strong sunlight. The heating may cause the door and parts of the door to expand and warp. This can impair the functionality of the door or parts of the door. If increased heat development is detected, this can be the reason to check the door and, if necessary, repair it.
• the sensor can also be a sensor for electrical variables such as electrical voltage, electrical current, ohmic resistance or electrical conductivity.
• a sensor can, for example, interact with a closed-circuit current loop, i.e. an electrical conductor through which a closed-circuit current flows.
• a mechanical effect on the closed-circuit current loop can result from a change in the electrical variable monitored by the sensor.
• the loop can be interrupted.
• the interruption can have various causes: It can be due to a defect or manipulation, for example as a result of a break-in or an attempted break-in.
• there is no failure of the monitored part of the seal but only a functional impairment, which can be traced back to deformation or wear, for example.
• the closed-circuit current loop can be built into a seal, for example. In particular, it can be part of a sealing profile.
• the sensor for electrical quantities can also be used in an automatically raised and lowered door seal with an electric drive for raising and lowering.
• the sensor can monitor the drive current. If a sealing strip is driven against the ground by means of the drive, the drive current increases. If the drive current reaches a specified value, the drive is switched off.
• a control of the drive can be designed in such a way that it remembers the position of the sealing strip when it is initialized and switches off the drive when it is lowered again before the position is reached, for example to protect the drive and the sealing strip. If there is a current increase before the noted position is reached, this may be due to a defect in the seal or a blockage of the seal due to an obstacle. The detected increase in current can then lead to the seal being checked and, if necessary, repaired.
• the sensor can also comprise two electrical conductors arranged next to one another. They can be embedded, for example, in a sealing profile or in another part. If the object is deformed by an external force acting on the object, the distance between the two conductors changes. This changes an inductive and / or capacitive coupling of the conductors, which leads to a current and / or voltage change that can be detected. This means that permanent deformations of the object can also be detected. Since deformations are caused by may have a defect in the object, the detection of a deformation, in particular a permanent deformation, can be the reason to check the object or to repair it.
• the sensor can be a pyroelectric infrared sensor. With this sensor, temperature differences can be detected. Temperature differences can indicate movement, airflow, fire, or something else. A pyroelectric infrared sensor can also be used for burglary protection.
• the sensor can be a GPS sensor. With this, positions and movements, in particular speeds, can be recorded. By monitoring the position of a door leaf or other moving parts of a door as the door opens and closes, a curve can be recorded that describes the movement. By comparison with a reference curve, deviations in the behavior of the door can then be determined, which can then be investigated.
