Embodiment Construction

[0029]FIG. 1 shows a lateral view of a transmission gear, especially a reciprocating or swinging cam drive, with one driving shaft 2 and two driven shafts 3 and 4, the latter performing an interdependent movement. While the driving shaft 2 is effectively connected to a drive, an electric motor for example, the driven shafts are connected for operating purposes to the shutter 6 and the latch 7 of the lock (see FIG. 4). Accordingly, both the driving shaft 2 and the driven shafts 3 and 4 comprise coupling means to connect them to the drive, the shutter 6 and the latch 7, as can best be seen, for example, in FIG. 2 for the shaft 4.

[0030] The transmission gear couples the driven shafts 3 and 4 to each other in such a manner that both the shafts 3 and 4 will be automatically rotated or swiveled when the driving shaft 2 is driven by means of a drive or motor. In particular, the coupled movement of the shafts 3 and 4 is phase-staggered, as can be seen from the motion diagram of FIG. 3. Acc...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a coating plant, especially a vacuum coating plant, with a charging lock, especially a rectangular vacuum lock for a coating chamber, with a lock aperture (13) having a length of at least 1000 mm that comprises a shutter (6) for closing and opening the lock aperture and a latch (7) to secure the shutter, wherein there are provided means for moving the shutter and the latch from a first open position to a second closed position, and vice versa, these means assuring also that the movements of the shutter (6) and the latch (7) will be coupled with each other in such manner that the shutter (6) will be automatically secured by the latch (7) after the shutter has been closed and will be released again before it is opened.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION [0001] This application is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10 / 547,718 filed Aug. 31, 2005 entitled COATING PLANT WITH A CHARGING LOCK AND DEVICE THEREFOR, which was the National Stage of International Application No. PCT / EP04 / 02542 entitled COATING PLANT WITH A CHARGING LOCK AND DEVICE THEREFOR, which claimed priority to International Application No. PCT / EP03 / 14749 filed Dec. 22, 2003.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates to a coating plant, especially a vacuum coating plant, preferably for the coating of substrates with large surface areas, such as, for instance, facade glazing, with a charging lock, especially a rectangular vacuum lock with a lock aperture having a length of at least 1000 mm and over, as well as an appropriate device for opening and closing the lock aperture. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] Coating plants that are operated under vacuum or near-vacuum conditions make use of charging lo...
