Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an automatic door seal with a carrier, connecting elements and a sealing strip comprising a sealing element, the carrier and the connecting elements being formed by one part.
  • US 5,454,192 A discloses an automatic seal for a door, comprising a carrier attachable to the door, fasteners attached to the carrier, and a weatherstrip carried by the fasteners.
  • a sealing element is attached to the retaining strip. The retaining strip and the sealing element together form a sealing strip.
  • the plurality of connecting elements couple the sealing strip and the carrier and hold the sealing strip in a release position, the sealing strip in the release position being at a distance from a mating surface, for example a floor, a ceiling, a wall, a threshold or a frame part of a door frame or other , so that the door can be moved without the sealing element rubbing on the mating surface.
  • a mating surface for example a floor, a ceiling, a wall, a threshold or a frame part of a door frame or other
  • the connecting elements are flexible and/or the connection between the connecting elements and the carrier and the sealing strip are flexible.
  • the connecting elements, the carrier and the sealing strip form a parallel link in which the sealing strip can be moved parallel to the carrier and at the same time in its longitudinal direction. For this purpose, a force can be exerted on the sealing strip in the longitudinal direction of the sealing strip.
  • a force can be introduced into the sealing strip, which presses the sealing strip into a sealing position in which the sealing strip is pressed against the counter surface, for example a floor, a ceiling, a wall, a threshold or a frame part of a door frame is used to seal the door.
  • the connecting elements can form a part with the carrier and with one of the sealing strips, namely a retaining strip.
  • This part can in particular be a plastic injection molded part.
  • the one-piece design of the carrier, the connecting elements and the retaining strip reduces the number of parts required to produce the seal. This has advantages for the production of the seal. By using an easy-to-manufacture part that replaces a large part of the parts necessary in a conventional automatic seal just for realizing the raising and lowering mechanism, it is possible to reduce costs.
  • the known seal has further parts, namely at least one sealing profile or element as a further part of the sealing strip and a cover which covers the carrier and the connecting elements and also the sealing strip in the release position. At least these two parts must be connected to the part forming the carrier, the connecting elements and the retaining strip in order to produce a seal.
  • the invention was based on the object of improving a seal of the type mentioned in such a way that the assembly effort required to produce the seal is reduced.
  • the seal has a cover and a sealing strip including a sealing element, and at least either the cover or the sealing element or the cover and the sealing element together with the carrier, the connecting elements and the retaining strip form a part.
  • This one part can also preferably be a plastic injection molded part.
  • the part can be made from one component, two components or more components, which allows different material properties to be achieved in different areas of the part.
  • the sealing element can thus be made from a component made of an elastic material, which is well suited as a sealing material.
  • An area of the sealing strip which has the function of the retaining strip, and / or the carrier and / or the connecting elements and / or the cover, on the other hand, can be made of a material that is harder than the elastic material in order to provide the strength necessary for the intended purpose of these elements makes sense or is necessary.
  • Areas between the elements made of hard material, in particular between the carrier and the connecting elements, the connecting elements and the retaining strip and the carrier and the cover can be made of a soft and / or elastic material.
  • elements made of a hard material, for example reinforcement to be embedded in an area of the sealing strip and/or in the connecting elements and/or in the carrier and/or in the cover. Such an embedding could be produced, for example, by overmolding.
  • Plastic injection molded part shown can be used to produce a seal according to the invention.
  • Such a seal according to the invention is in the release position with the sealing strip Figures 1a to 4a and with the sealing strip in the sealing position Figures 1b to 4b shown.
  • the plastic injection molded part has a carrier 1, covers 2, connecting elements 3 and a sealing strip 4.
  • a retaining strip and a sealing element are integral parts of the sealing strip.
  • the carrier 1 like the covers and a central area 41 and edge areas 42 of the sealing strip, is strip-shaped.
  • the carrier 1 has two long sides. Each of the long sides of the carrier 1 is connected to one of the two covers 2 via a film hinge, specifically to one long side of the covers 2.
  • the carrier 1 and the covers 2 lie in one plane.
  • the connecting elements 3 are attached to an underside of the carrier 1.
  • the connecting elements 3 are rod-like and have a first end and a second end.
  • the first end of each connecting element 3 is connected to the underside of the carrier 1.
  • the connecting elements 3 are arranged parallel and at a distance from one another and they form an angle of between 20° and 70° with the carrier 1.
  • the second ends of the connecting elements 3 are connected to the sealing strip 4, specifically to an upper side of the central region 41 of the sealing strip 4.
  • the central region 41 is arranged parallel to the carrier 1.
  • the middle area 41 also has two long sides.
  • One of the strip-shaped edge regions 42 of the sealing strip 4 is connected to each long side via a film hinge.
  • the edge areas 42 protrude from the central area 41 laterally and slightly upwards.
  • connection between the carrier 1 and the connecting elements 3 as well as the connections between the connecting elements 3 and the central region 41 are flexible and they thereby enable rotation between the carrier 1 and the connecting elements 3 on the one hand and the connecting elements 3 and the sealing strip 4 on the other hand.
  • the carrier 1, the connecting elements 3 and the sealing strip 4 thereby form a parallel link, which means that the sealing strip 4 and the carrier 1 can be moved relative to one another in a parallel alignment, with the distance from one another changing. At the same time, there is a longitudinal displacement of the carrier 1 and the sealing strip 4.
  • the sealing strip 4 can be made of a material that is more elastic and softer than the material from which the carrier 1 and the covers 2 and possibly also the connecting elements are made. Due to the elasticity of the Sealing strip 4 can achieve a good seal. The greater rigidity or hardness of the carrier 1 and the connecting elements are important for good force transmission and thus for enabling the relative movement of the carrier 1 and the sealing strip 4.
  • the sealing strip 4 also needs a minimum rigidity for force transmission, particularly in the direction in which a force for moving the sealing strip 4 is introduced into the sealing strip 4. In order to achieve this at the same time with flexibility, which is important for the sealing properties, the sealing strip 4 could be made of a soft, flexible and a hard, rigid component.
  • This plastic injection molded part can be made into the in just a few steps Figures 1a to 4a and 1b to 4b Seals shown can be produced. To do this, the plastic injection molded part can first be brought to a desired length. The edge regions 42 are then pivoted upwards until they are approximately 90° to the central region 41. Then the covers 2 can be pivoted downwards until they are approximately 90° to the carrier 1. The free side edges of the edge regions 42 then rest on the now inner side surfaces of the covers 2.
  • Seal shown are increased by a force acting in the longitudinal direction on the sealing strip 4, the angle between the connecting elements 3 and the carrier 1 and the angle between the connecting elements 3 and the sealing strip 4, whereby the distance between the sealing strip 4 and the carrier 1 is enlarged.
  • the sealing strip 4 is moved out of the space between the carrier 1 and the covers 2 and brought into the sealing position in which it can rest against a counter surface.
  • the force can be introduced into a seal according to the invention via a trigger.
  • a trigger can be an integral part of the sealing strip 4.
  • one end 43 of the sealing strip 4 can serve as a trigger.
  • the seal it is also possible for the seal to have a special part that forms a trigger and is connected to the sealing strip.
