Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a device comprising: at least one, particularly exactly one, and / or an electrically driven device; a component, particularly a window, door, or baffle element, slidable relative to a wall element for closing an opening in the wall element; and at least one guiding device by which the component is slidable relative to the wall element. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for moving such a device. Background Technology

[0002] Such a device is known from document EP 3 722 547A1, in which a sliding window can slide along the window frame in a motor-driven manner.

[0003] The drawback of the prior art is that the drive device is only designed to perform sliding motion. Due to the design of the structure, such as the lack of a sequence of driven and manually operable moving parts, the functionality of the drive device is limited to the motion or is greatly restricted. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, the objective technical objective of this invention is to provide an improved device and an improved method relative to the prior art, wherein the disadvantages of the prior art are at least partially eliminated, and its features are particularly in the improved functionality in terms of the movement process of the component relative to the wall element by incorporating at least one drive device.

[0005] The objective is achieved by the features of claim 1.

[0006] Accordingly, according to the present invention, at least one switch and / or at least one sensing device, preferably a metal detector, is provided, through which a partially open position of a component can be detected, and / or via the switch and / or sensing device, preferably in relation to the detection of a partially open position starting from a fully open position, at least one drive device can be activated, and / or preferably in relation to the detection of a partially open position starting from a closed position, at least one drive device can be deactivated.

[0007] This allows for the generation of enhanced information content for the movement of components, enabling, for example, the efficient or particularly advantageous use of at least one drive device.

[0008] By detecting or determining that the device is in a partially open position, it can be ensured that at least one drive device—especially the motor of an electric drive device—is only activated or required to draw current when it is actually needed to drive the components, thereby saving energy.

[0009] Furthermore, directional correlation can be determined, for example, by detecting positions within and / or across time intervals and / or by determining the contact direction, in the sense of entering the partially open position from the direction of the closed position or from the direction of the fully open position, so as to initiate the correct movement process in relation to the specific positioning and / or history of a particular movement trajectory in the partially open position. For example, after a manual sliding process of the component parallel to at least one guide device, a driven movement segment of the component orthogonal to at least one guide device can be automatically realized via at least one drive device, or a manual movement segment can be realized after the driven movement segment of the component without the participation of at least one drive device or with the force assistance of at least one drive device. The positioning of the component with respect to the definition of using at least one drive device can be defined by, for example, a partially open position that can be used for room ventilation.

[0010] Typically, it is feasible to construct at least one switch (mechanically only), wherein the partially open position is identified, for example, by a unilateral positioning bolted to a control bend. Preferably, the switch includes electronic means for determining the partially open position, wherein alternatively or additionally, other sensing devices such as rangefinders or position sensors may be selected.

[0011] At least one switch and / or at least one sensing device may be assigned to at least one drive device, or may be spatially separated from at least one drive device—for example, at a hinge and / or guide device. The manner and method of recording the partially open position or the operation of at least one switch and / or at least one sensing device is generally arbitrary and may be performed, for example, by means of capacitance or inductance measurement, via contact through a pulley or hinge, etc.

[0012] By using at least one switch and / or at least one sensing device, it can be ensured that at least one drive device is activated only when the partially open position is reached, and / or that no force is transmitted to the component once the partially open position is reached. This prevents the component from being mispositioned or moving undesirably along the motion process.

[0013] For example, after being manually switched to the partially open position, it can automatically switch to the closed position, and vice versa. For example, anti-pinch protection can be provided to protect the operator.

[0014] The components are not limited to (glass) windows, and the devices are not limited to use in wall elements, wherein the devices can be sold separately and used in any application field, for example as baffle elements in the form of spatial division or as—especially transparent—doors.

[0015] A wall element (of a room) can generally be understood as a house wall, with the roof wall of the house being included within the house wall. The component, in the location of use of the installation, can cover openings in wall elements associated with rooms, etc., of a house.

[0016] Particularly preferred is that the member can slide orthogonally relative to a portion of the guide device, for positioning in a partially open position in a state where the member is completely orthogonal to the wall element or the movement of that portion of the guide device (parallel to the plane of the member). Typically, the member can start from this orthogonally positioned position and then stop in a direction normal to the direction of movement, and vice versa.

[0017] Particularly preferred is that, in the closed position of the component—especially in a line-of-sight direction orthogonal to the component—the guide rail of at least one guiding device is invisible. The component can be constructed without a frame, wherein it is also feasible to move the frame conventionally provided for the component outward into the wall element. Preferably, the component includes a frame so that improved thermal insulation properties and / or covering movement techniques can be realized.

[0018] As stated at the beginning, a method for moving the device according to any one of the preceding claims is also claimed, wherein the following method steps are performed:

[0019] - To move the component preferably from the closed position and / or driven by at least one drive device to the partially open position, or from the fully open position and / or manually.

[0020] - Detect the partial open position of the component and / or activate or deactivate at least one drive device via at least one switch and / or at least one sensing device.

[0021] At least one drive device can be activated or deactivated when entering the partially open position via a drive control device or by powering on at least one drive device.

[0022] A partially open position can be defined, for example, by a state that is completely orthogonal to the longitudinal extension movement of at least one guide device. Similar to conventional windows, this parallel placement corresponds to an inclined position, which must be manually activated to ventilate the room. According to the invention, the opening and / or closing process can be partially shared by at least one drive device, wherein additional functions, such as safety functions (child safety devices) or automation functions (restoring desired air quality), can be flexibly and user-friendly implemented via at least one drive device or through open-loop and / or closed-loop control devices connected to said drive device via radio signal transmission or wired data connection.

[0023] Advantageous embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.

[0024] According to an advantageous design of the invention, at least one switch and / or at least one sensing device may be operated by at least one trolley disposed at at least one guide device, preferably a guide rail on the wall element side of at least one guide device, and / or in connection with at least one switch (21) and / or at least one sensing device, the power supply of at least one drive device may be connected and / or interrupted.

[0025] Advantageously, the component can slide via at least one drive device relative to at least one guide device in a longitudinal extension orthogonal to the at least one guide device.

[0026] This allows the component to move parallel to the wall element—where the device can be installed—so that, for example, rooms in the building can be ventilated, and / or, in the second moving section of the component, movement parallel to the wall element and orthogonal to the first moving section can be achieved, ensuring no collision with the wall element and ensuring the exposure of the opening of the wall element.

[0027] This can be achieved by orthogonal sliding, in which the component can be automatically slid from a closed position parallel to the wall element and / or from a plane unfolded by two guide devices to a partially open position via at least one drive device, particularly for ventilating a room or positioning the component in an orientation in which the component enters a fully open position outside the room parallel to at least one guide device.

[0028] In addition, it brings positive effects: at least one guiding device can be at least partially hidden within the wall element and / or component, so as to give a particularly visually appealing device, wherein the visual impression can be further improved by setting the component flush with the surface of the wall element.

[0029] Surface flush should be understood broadly here to also include the slight protrusion of a component in its closed position—e.g., on a facade. The component may slide laterally along the facade in the direction of its fully open position (after orthogonal movement). However, surface flush may alternatively or additionally refer to openings in wall elements, wherein the guide (with respect to the component lining) is preferably not visible in the closed state.

[0030] At least one drive device can assist the operator's manual power in moving the component, or can—at least partially—perform fully automatic movement of the component. The at least one drive device can ensure the correct positioning of the component relative to at least one guide device, and / or can—especially remotely—lock or—especially automatically—initiate movement of the component. Preferably, at least one drive device comprises an electric motor.

[0031] According to an advantageous design of the invention, at least one guiding device is disposed on the upper and / or lower side of the member in the use position, and / or the member can slide relative to at least one guiding device through a longitudinal extension parallel to at least one guiding device via at least one driving device.

[0032] Lateral guidance of the component can be achieved by setting it on the upper or lower side, wherein the front of the component is not obstructed by at least one guiding device, wherein at least one guiding device may be covered, for example, in the frame element so as not to reduce the transparency of the component in the middle area.

[0033] By sliding parallel to the longitudinal extension, the opening of the wall element can be released to a great extent, which in particular eliminates the need for a pivoting process, thereby reducing the risk of falling out of the opening of the wall element, and the accessibility of the component throughout the entire movement process is particularly advantageously designed.

[0034] Advantageously, the component may extend parallel to the longitudinal direction of at least one guide device, preferably between a partially open position and a fully open position and / or slide at least 300 mm, particularly preferably at least 600 mm, and / or the component may move substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of at least one guide device, preferably between a closed position and a partially open position and / or between 50 mm and 300 mm, particularly preferably between 100 mm and 150 mm.

[0035] It has been proven advantageous that at least one guiding device includes guide rails on the member side and / or guide rails on the wall element side for relative movement of the member relative to the wall element, and / or at least one guiding device is at least partially integrated in the member liner of the wall element and / or in the frame of the member, wherein it is preferably provided that the guide rails on the member side are embedded in the member and / or the guide rails on the wall element side are embedded in the wall element, and / or the member is arranged substantially flush with the wall element in the closed position, and / or the member is arranged parallel to the wall element in the partially open position and / or in the fully open position.

[0036] If the guiding device is two-piece, with one guide rail assigned to the fixed wall element and the other to the component, the component can be particularly advantageously moved laterally via hinges to release the opening. The embedding of the guide rails reduces contamination and creates a visually appealing impression, which is especially important in windows or doors made of glass or plastic.

[0037] By using a parallel arrangement, a small amount of space is required inside or outside the wall element, where the frame can be set as a frame baffle to cover the components of the motion technology.

[0038] Particularly preferred is that the component is disposed substantially flush with the wall element surface in the closed and / or fully open position, and / or disposed substantially flush with the component liner of the wall element in the side in the closed and / or partially open position.

[0039] Preferably, the components required for the guide member extend laterally from the plane of the wall element, such that in the use position there are essentially no components, such as hinges, that must extend vertically upward or downward into the space defined by the member liner, thereby forming a particularly compact guide system.

[0040] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the component can be moved, preferably between a closed position and a partially open position and / or between a partially open position and a fully open position, relative to at least one guide device by at least one drive device and / or manually, wherein it is particularly preferred that the component in the closed position, in the partially open position and / or in the fully open position be locked by a bolt pivotably accessible to at least one drive device and / or provided at a roller.

[0041] At least one drive device can be responsible for the automatic movement of the component or reduce the force consumption for manual movement of the component. With at least one drive device, the component can be driven locally—for example, between a closed position and a partially open position—or force can be transmitted up to the fully open position. It is also conceivable that the component can be freely moved manually in the idle zone and automatically moved by at least one drive device when needed.

[0042] The locking of at least one drive device is preferably generated via at least one bolt, wherein the number of bolts is generally arbitrary, and other locking mechanisms are also conceivable. Particularly preferred is that at least one bolt interacts with a control bend of at least one drive device, so as to, for example, ensure or inhibit a changing trajectory of the hinge or component. For example, the relative positioning of at least one locking mechanism with respect to the control bend or another locking mechanism can lock a first direction of movement for the hinge and release a second direction of movement for the hinge, optionally related to the position of the hinge.

[0043] If at least one locking mechanism is provided at the roller, the roller can serve a dual function, such as for vertical synchronization of two guide devices. Typically, the component can be fixed at any position by locking or latching at least one drive device and / or clamping or latching a member along at least one guide device.

[0044] An advantageous variation of the invention is that at least one drive device is coupled or can be coupled with an open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device, preferably a building control device, wherein at least one sensor, particularly preferably a CO2 sensor, is provided for measuring the characteristics of the building, and / or at least one drive device can be activated in relation to the sensor signal of the open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device, particularly preferably in relation to the sensor signal of the at least one sensor.

[0045] For example, building control devices can activate at least one drive device in relation to lighting conditions, time, temperature, air humidity, air quality, etc., to manipulate a component to a partially or fully open position in order to ventilate or convect the room.

[0046] The type of sensor is typically arbitrary, and sensors may also be omitted. At least one drive device is activated, for example, at a predetermined time via open-loop control and / or closed-loop control. The open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device may alternatively or additionally be part of or integrated into at least one drive device.

[0047] Preferably, the open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device includes a computing unit, a storage unit, a receiving unit, and / or a data transmission module, wherein, for example, an algorithm stored in a computer program product may be provided for open-loop or closed-loop control of at least one drive device.

[0048] Particularly preferred is that at least one drive device is manually operable and / or configured in the form of a crank, or is provided with at least one switch, preferably a radio switch and / or a control switch, by means of which at least one drive device can be activated.

[0049] Manual power can be transmitted to at least one guiding device via a crank—for example, in conjunction with a rope drive—or the like. Alternatively or additionally, the component may include a handle for manual sliding. Preferably, the movement of the component is via an electrically driven device, wherein other drive mechanisms are also feasible.

[0050] At least one drive device can be activated remotely or in a specific location—e.g., in a partially open position—by means of at least one switch (e.g., located at at least one guide device and / or wall element).

[0051] In one embodiment of the invention, at least one drive device is disposed in the corner region of the member or in the middle region of the side of the member, wherein preferably, two drive devices are disposed diagonally in the corner regions of the member.

[0052] The drive device is sufficient for the opening and closing movement of the component, and its placement in the corner area of ​​the component simplifies maintenance and installation. If the drive device is located on the outside at at least one guide device, collisions with moving parts are reduced, and the drive device can further be concealed within the wall element.

[0053] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, at least one drive device interacts with at least one hinge, preferably including two elbows, wherein preferably four hinges are located in the regions of the four corners of the member, and / or two hinges are located at possible member liner plates and / or two additional hinges are located at the member, and / or the movement of at least two hinges in the use position of the device is horizontal and / or vertically synchronized, and / or one elbow is provided for compensating for the weight load of the member and another elbow is provided for guiding the member.

[0054] Hinges with at least one elbow have proven particularly effective for efficient movement of components, where the elbow can be understood as a hinged connection via an elbow joint. Hinges—especially in the case of at least two elbows—can include various functions, such as for load removal, for lateral guidance, or for orthogonal motion. The two elbows can be located at the same hinge or separately on two hinges, where it is generally conceivable to have only one elbow or to configure the hinge as elbowless.

[0055] It has been proven advantageous that at least one hinge is statically disposed on the guide rail on the wall element side and at least one hinge is statically disposed on the guide rail on the component side, such that the guide rail on the component side is movable relative to the guide rail on the wall element side.

[0056] Thus, the guide rail on the component side can move together with the component in a particularly stable, secure and coordinated manner relative to the guide rail on the fixed wall component side.

[0057] Furthermore, it is preferred that there be exactly one drive device and two or four hinges, wherein at least one drive device is located at one of the two or four hinges, and one of the two hinges or two of the four hinges can move relative to another hinge or the other two hinges by at least one drive device.

[0058] In another embodiment, it may be proposed that two, preferably slidably supported, horizontally oriented synchronizing rods be provided in the use position, wherein, in order to synchronize at least two, preferably form-fitting, hinges provided at the synchronizing rods, a rope including a figure-eight knot is provided for rotating the synchronizing rods in opposite directions, preferably between 90° and 150°, and / or at least one hinge includes a pulley, wherein it is preferably proposed that two pulleys are movable at guide rails on the side of the possible component and / or two pulleys are movable at guide rails on the side of the possible wall element.

[0059] Synchronizing rods are used for vertical synchronization in the movement of components. Typically, it is conceivable to have only one synchronizer, to have (multiple) synchronizers set vertically, or to decouple hinges or ropes from the synchronizer, or to have other synchronization mechanisms.

[0060] According to an advantageous design according to the invention, at least one hinge is inclined to balance the tilt or descent of the member relative to the vertical line of the use position, and / or includes a rope drive to balance the tilt of the member relative to the horizontal line of the use position, wherein preferably the rope drive includes a tapered roller for shortening the rope length and / or a positionally variable steering roller.

[0061] In the partially or fully open position, the member may tend to sink or tilt due to gravity, wherein the hinge axis of the elbow resists the tilting or sinking of the member from the closed position to the partially open position by tilting.

[0062] The rope drive can be configured to remove loads caused by slippage motion and can be designed to balance the torque that increases as the opening motion progresses.

[0063] The descent or tilting of a component can be prevented by the orientation of the hinge and / or by means of a rope drive, or even by overcompensation through lifting the component.

[0064] In a preferred embodiment, the bending movement of the elbow of at least one hinge from a partially open position toward a fully open position is lockable, and / or a clamping rod preferably coupled to a brake is provided, by means of which at least one hinge can be automatically clamped at any position between the partially open and fully open positions, wherein the member can be slid along at least one guide by operating the clamping rod, wherein preferably, the clamping rod includes a handle that can be at least partially embedded in the possible frame of the member and / or can be discretely or continuously adjusted.

[0065] By locking the bending motion, alternatively or supplementarily locking at least one drive device (e.g., via power supply or deactivation or via a latch lock) can ensure anti-theft in the closed position and / or prevent bending of the hinge when the component slides parallel to the fully open position.

[0066] Brakes improve device durability by preventing sudden, stable fixation of the component. The clamp or brake can be released via a handle, allowing the component to slide manually or by means of at least one drive mechanism. Automatic clamping of the component prevents undesirable lateral movement, such as from wind.

[0067] Particularly preferably, at least one switch and / or at least one sensing device is operated by at least one trolley, and / or in connection with at least one switch and / or at least one sensing device, to connect and / or disconnect the power supply to at least one drive device.

[0068] According to an advantageous design of the invention, a member is moved relative to at least one guide device via at least one drive device, wherein the member slides from a closed position to a partially open position or from a partially open position to a closed position relative to at least one guide device via at least one drive device orthogonal to the longitudinal extension of at least one guide device, thereby covering the opening of the wall element.

[0069] Preferably, at least one drive device is locked and / or coupled to an open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device, wherein at least one drive device is activated in relation to a sensor signal of at least one sensor via the open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device.

[0070] Preferably, the component is slid from a partially open position to a fully open position via at least one drive device extending longitudinally parallel to at least one guide device, so as to expose the opening at least partially or orthogonally to the opening, or slide from the fully open position to the partially open position.

[0109] The hinge shaft hole, which is inclined relative to the vertical line 31, prevents the component 3 from sinking due to gravity from the closed position 12 to the partially open position 11. Therefore, the hinge shaft of the elbow 24 of the two hinges 25 to be connected to the wall element side of the component liner 15 is slightly inclined relative to the vertical line 31.

[0110] exist Figures 7j to 7l As can be seen, hinge 25 exists without the weight of component 3, where component 3, due to the tilt of hinge 25, [is affected]. Figure 7j Hinge 25 is in the closed position 12 starting—through Figure 7k The middle position in the middle - in Figure 7l The part of the open position 10 is lifted, and the resulting vertical distance may elastically deform to 0° due to the mass of the component 3.

[0111] Figure 8 The component parts that are key to the drive of component 3 are shown, with drive device 1 visible in the right-hand view. This drive device is electrically driven. Typically, no additional drive device 1 is required.

[0112] Component 3 can be driven by the drive device 1 with respect to the guide device 5, orthogonal to the longitudinal extension 6 of the guide device 5 (see...). Figure 5c Slippage.

[0113] In this embodiment, the component 3 can be moved between a closed position 12 and a partially open position 10 relative to the guide device 5 by the drive device 1, and can be manually slid between the partially open position 10 and the fully open position 11.

[0114] The drive device 1 is coupled to an open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device 18 located at the drive device 1, wherein the open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device may alternatively or supplementally exist in the form of a spatially separated building control mechanism.

[0115] The device includes a sensor 19 in the form of a CO2 sensing device for measuring air quality in a building (other characteristics such as temperature or air humidity are also possible).

[0116] The drive device 1 can be activated in relation to the sensor signal of the sensor 19 via open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device 18; however, it can also typically be activated, for example, in a time-dependent manner or based on illumination conditions. The input signal used to activate the drive device is typically arbitrary.

[0117] For example, the drive device 1 can be configured for the interaction of two or four hinges 25, wherein the drive device 1 is located at one of the two or four hinges 25, and one of the two hinges 25 or two of the four hinges 25 can move relative to another hinge 25 or the other two hinges 25 by the drive device 1.

[0118] As an alternative, a manual drive device 1 is provided in the lower left corner, which is in the form of a crank 20.

[0119] The switch 21 for activating the drive device 1 is schematically shown in the upper left corner. This switch can typically be located, for example, as a radio switch at the wall element 2, or as a control switch at the open-loop and / or closed-loop control device 18. Activation can be wired, but is preferably performed wirelessly. The drive device 1 includes a receiving device for this purpose, which may include a data transmission module by means of which information such as usage time and motion data can be transmitted to the electronic mechanism for evaluation.

[0120] Switch 21 may also be located at guide device 5, or may be a sensing device 39 in the form of a metal detector, to detect the partially open position 10 of member 3 and to directly notify the open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device 18 or drive device 1 in the form of a digital dataset. Preferably, switch 21 or sensing device 39 may be operated by trolley 30 (on guide rail 14 on the wall element side).

[0121] The drive device 1 can be activated in relation to the detection of the partially open position 10 starting from the fully open position 11, and can be deactivated in relation to the detection of the partially open position 10 starting from the closed position 12.

[0122] Figure 9As shown, in order to synchronize the two hinges 25 that are shaped to fit together at the synchronizing rod 27, a rope 28 including a rope figure-eight knot 29 is provided for the synchronizing rod 27 to rotate in opposite directions.

[0123] In this embodiment, two ropes 28 are provided on opposite sides of the guide device 5, which is not strictly necessary. The synchronizing rod 27 rotates approximately 120° during use.

[0124] The elbow 24, designed for guiding function, is shaped to fit and can be slidably connected to the synchronizing rod 27 in the case of the guide rail 13 on the component side.

[0125] Two hinges 25 are provided at the component liner 15, and two additional hinges 25 are provided at the component 3, wherein the movement of the hinges 25 in the use position 7 of the device is synchronous in both horizontal and vertical directions.

[0126] One elbow 24 of each hinge 25 is configured to compensate for the weight load of the member 3, and the other elbow 24 of each hinge 25 is configured to guide the member 3.

[0127] A sensor 39, configured as a switch 21, is located in the lower right corner of the diagram for detecting the partially open position 10. Its function during the period when the device is in the partially open position 10 is as follows: Figure 10a and Figure 10b As can be seen. Alternatively or supplementarily, the partially open position 10 can be determined by the switch 21 or the sensing device 39, for example, via the rotational position of a component—such as the synchronizing rod 27.

[0128] Figure 10a and Figure 10b The hinge 25, which is connected to the window-shaped member 3, is shown in an enlarged view in the folded position before being transformed from the closed position 12 or the fully open position 11 to the partially open position 10.

[0129] The sensing device 39 includes a switch 21, which in turn... Figure 10a The power supply to the drive device may be interrupted or remain active (depending on the direction of entering the partially open position 10). Figure 10b In this configuration, component 3 is located in the partially open position 10, such that the switch 21 of the sensing device 39 establishes or interrupts power supply to the drive device via a tilting motion—caused by the movement of the trolley 30 and preferably via an electrical contact element. Typically, the sensing device 39 or the switch 21 can constitute an open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device 18 for activating the drive device 1 or the drive device 1 itself.

[0130] Figure 11aThe closed position 12 of component 3 at component liner 15 is shown, wherein a rope drive device 33 is provided to balance the inclination of component 3 relative to the horizontal line 32 of the use position 7.

[0131] exist Figure 11b In the middle, component 3 is switched to the partially open position 10 by an orthogonal parallel sliding of at least 50 mm, wherein component 3 can then slide parallel along the longitudinal extension 6 of guide device 5 for at least 600 mm.

[0132] As can be seen in the enlarged detail, there is a clamping rod 36 coupled to the brake (not shown for overview purposes), by means of which the hinge 25 can be automatically clamped at any position between the partially open position 10 and the fully open position 11, wherein the member 3 can slide along the guide device 5 by operating the clamping rod 36.

[0133] The clamping rod 36 includes a handle 37, which can be embedded in the frame 38 of the component 3. The clamping rod 36 is configured to be adjustable discretely or continuously.

[0134] Figure 11c The component 3 is shown together with the guide device 5, wherein the connection between the hinge 25 and the component parts surrounding the guide device is shown in enlarged detail, the component parts being driven and manually slidable via the drive device 1.

[0135] The guide device 5 is positioned at the upper side 8 and lower side 9 of the component 3 in the use position 7, wherein the component 3 can slide relative to the guide device 5 through the drive device 1 parallel to the longitudinal extension 6 of the guide device 5.

[0136] Four hinges 25 are positioned in the regions of the four corners 22 of the member 3 in the closed position 12 and the partially open position 10, wherein in the fully open position 11, two hinges 25 are movable along the two sides 23 of the member.

[0137] Figure 11d and Figure 11b The only difference is that the clamping rod 36 has been moved to a position in which the member 3 can move laterally from the current partially open position 10 toward the fully open position 11.

[0138] Two drive devices 1 are respectively located in the region of one corner 22 of component 3, with the two drive devices 1 being diagonally located in the regions of the two corners 22 of component 3. It is also conceivable that they are located in the middle region of the side 23 of component 3.

[0139] Figure 12aAs shown, the clamping rod 36 is connected to the guide device 5 via a rope, such that when the clamping rod 36 is operated, the automatic fixation of the component 3 at the guide device 5 is disengaged, allowing the component 3 to slide. Clamping can typically be achieved through form-fitting and / or force-fitting methods.

[0140] Figure 12b The rope drive 33 is shown separately, comprising a tapered roller 34 for shortening the rope length and two position-variable guide rollers 35. The tapered roller 34 can also be understood as the guide rollers 35.

[0141] exist Figure 12c The image visually illustrates the shortening of the rope length as the position of component 3 changes along the guide device 5.

[0142] The rope length of the rope drive 33 not assigned to the conical drum 34 is longest in the left-hand view, which corresponds to the closed position 12 of the component in the lower view. After passing the intermediate position (corresponding to the middle view of the conical drum 34 and the middle view of the component 3), the component reaches the fully open position 11 (the upper view of the component 3), thereby shortening the rope length of the rope drive 33 not wound onto the conical drum 34 (the right-hand view of the conical drum 34), thus hindering the sinking or tilting of the component 3.

[0143] An exemplary method for moving the device can be illustrated as follows: Member 3 moves relative to guide device 5 via drive device 1, wherein member 3 slides relative to guide device 5 from closed position 12 to partially open position 10 via drive device 1 orthogonal to the longitudinal extension 6 of guide device 5, to release opening 4 of wall element 2, or conversely to completely cover opening 4. Member 3 slides manually or via drive device 1 parallel to the longitudinal extension 6 of guide device 5 from partially open position 10 to fully open position 11, to release opening 4 orthogonally to opening 4, or conversely to partially cover opening 4.

[0144] The drive device 1 may be locked in the closed position 12, for example, and coupled to the open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device 18, such that the drive device 1 is activated in relation to or directly through the sensor signal of the sensor 19 via the open-loop control and / or closed-loop control device 18, so as to generate movement of the member 3 from the closed position 12 to the partially open position 10, or vice versa, wherein the partially open position 10 may be detected in relation to the switch 21 or the sensor 39 and via the trolley 30, to activate or deactivate the drive device 1.
