Tht Invention relates to o roller shutter. which: can ftmcdoi as a venMian bind, baaing a curtain comprising a plurality of horizontally arranged and nondnterlocking slats., wherein the slats hare gbláe rfements arraageá oa their ends sab are connected with these via a swivel axis in the lower region of the slits, wfwreio the guide elements on guided: in Vérttel guide profiles and comprise: actuating elements which permit swivellin g movements of the individual slats.

The idea to provide shutters with slats that can swivel arounda horizontal avisier opening purposes has1 long been known.. To this end, various technical solutions have been presented (DE 2f 29 675 AT).

Systems are known which trigger the swivelling of the shutter slats using a rail system (DE 94 03 902 H i), f he slates are attached to the rail and this rail can: he moved up and down by a toothed belt principle and whereby the slates are respectively brought Into a closed or open position. Another mechanical adjustment device of a roller shutter, which can function as a Venetian blind, is known iront DE 198 42 502 AI, Solutions are also known with drawstrings acting on the slates (DE 20 2013 100 til), WÖ 2012/005912 AT describes a shutter with rotatably adjustable slats, which are respectively adjusted: by moans hf a drive pinion of a toothed racte Ä of these solutions are constructively very complex, in many known, spiutjonsyjndlvidoal adjustment iI:uot:;possih!:e< There is often only the variant between open: and closed or even only open (pE 1É 2905 03? 7751% There· Is thus only one position: here Whereby tie light is deducted. There is no knowst winding: whereby the adjustment of the slats to defkv t light in each position of the shutter Is possible.

The mrmnt market steatite requires a possibility to better utilise the incoming suibeams aaé tbss also the sun energy, in this regard, however, the known advantages of the shutter, for example dnrlngthe night hours may notbe dispensed with.

Proceeding from here, the object underlying the invention is to design and refine a roller shutter, which can h.motion as a Venetian blind, described in the Introduction and previously explained in detail In order to achieve optimised swivelling with little étert and without being overly technical and to provide a ^igbttdeieebng" roller shutter* which can function as a Venetian blind;.

This object Is achieved With a roller shutter, which can function as a Venetian blind;, with all the teatiwes ofthe preamble of claim 1 in that first magnem are provided as actuating elements, which can B# moved by further magnets arranged outside of the roller shutter, through appropriate attraction and/or repulsion, in order to open and/or close; the slats,: Two Magnets are inserted in the guide elements which attract each other or are repulsed by oppositely poled magnets. The roller shutter is thus swivelled in the desired region into the opening position guiding the light. The light incident angle is, in this regard, approximately 60T The advantages of th e invention are that the slats swivel from below, theÄ can thus defieectiie light indirectly into die room trough the slat shape.

If "magnets" are in question, magnetic coils ornMgnotie coil modules, be. electromagnets in particular should also be included here. Which; can be; centra ily controlled.

The usé: of niagnels is already known per se froteBI -10 BO 2d4AL The mapeis, ho weven, hero serve for guiding the slat ends is fhe: case; of Inclined shutters.
