Description

TECHNICAL AREA

[0001] The present invention relates to a unit for a wing of a door or window, preferably a pivoting wing, and a sealing device. STATE OF THE ART

[0002] Door seals with a movable sealing strip, also called drop seals or automatic seals, are known for sealing a gap between an end face of a door leaf and a door frame or floor. They are designed to prevent light from passing through, provide sound insulation, and preferably prevent air leakage. Depending on the design, they also protect against driving rain and wind. These door seals can be installed not only in or on a lower end face of the door leaf, but also in or on upper and side end faces.

[0003] These door seals feature a guide rail and a sealing strip that moves relative to the guide rail. The sealing strip is typically actuated automatically when the door leaf is opened and closed. This is usually triggered mechanically, for example, by a release button protruding from the guide rail. Pressing this button against the door frame activates a movement mechanism, usually called a lowering mechanism. Returning the sealing strip to its raised position is typically achieved with return springs. Such drop seals have been known for years and are described, for example, in EP 0 338 974 A2, DE 19 516 530 A1, EP 0 509 961 A1, WO 2019 / 015939 A1, EP 2 085 559 A2, DE 3 526 720 A1, DE 3 418 438 A1, and DE 3 427 938 A1. Their content is included in the text by reference.

[0004] EP 2 063 060 B1 shows a door with a door handle and a drop seal sealing against a floor, wherein a rod connected to the door handle acts from above on a slider of the drop seal running perpendicular to the rod in order to actuate the drop mechanism of the drop seal.

[0005] EP 2 085 559 B1 discloses a drop seal with a slider, referred to here as a force transmission rod, which is connected at one end on its underside to a release block. The release block is located in the area of ​​a lateral or upper window of the housing profile rail. An actuating rod can be inserted into the release block perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the slider or drop seal in order to move the release block to the left or right. The seal can thereby be actuated by pulling or pushing the slider. The window handle can be used as an actuating rod.

[0006] DE 199 33 576 A1 discloses a door or window fitting with a rail that has a sealing profile. When the window or door is closed, this rail is pressed towards the frame via a guide rail.

[0007] EP 1 538 298 B1 shows a sliding door or window with a controllable sealing element between the sash and the frame. Operation is achieved by means of the hardware's push rods, using a curved control slot to lower and raise the sealing element.

[0008] The latter two solutions have the disadvantage that while the end faces of the door leaf, which are fitted with a sealing element, can be sealed, they cannot be locked because the drop seal is located in the same plane of the door leaf as the locking mechanism. Furthermore, they are complex in design and require a relatively deep groove in the door leaf. PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] It is therefore an object of the invention to create an improved unit with fitting and automatic seal as well as an improved sealing device.

[0010] This problem is solved by a unit and a sealing device having the features of claim 1 and 15 respectively.

[0011] The inventive unit for a door or window sash comprises a fitting with a sliding rod and an automatic seal. The automatic seal includes a guide profile rail with a first longitudinal axis, a sealing strip held in the guide profile rail, and a movement mechanism. The sealing strip can be moved perpendicular to the first longitudinal axis relative to the guide profile rail by means of the movement mechanism to move from a rest position to a sealing position. The movement mechanism includes a slider that can be moved by means of the fitting along the longitudinal axis of the guide profile rail to move the sealing strip into the sealing position. The sliding rod has a second longitudinal axis that runs parallel to the first longitudinal axis.The sliding rod, viewed in a direction perpendicular to the first longitudinal axis and perpendicular to the direction of movement of the sealing strip from its rest position to its sealing position, is laterally offset or positioned next to the automatic seal. A force transmission element is present which, when the sliding rod moves or shifts parallel to the longitudinal axis, causes the slider to move or shift along the first longitudinal axis.

[0012] This arrangement of the sliding rod, which runs parallel to the seal but is offset laterally to the seal, has several advantages, as indicated below.

[0013] In this text, "lateral" refers to a position perpendicular or transverse to the main direction of movement of the sealing strip, where terms like "top," "bottom," and "lateral" are defined by the seal itself and not by its installation position in the sash. The guide rail is open at the bottom, allowing the sealing strip to be raised and lowered relative to the guide rail. This raising and lowering action defines a main direction of movement. The main direction of movement is thus the direction in which the sealing strip moves from its rest position to its sealing position and vice versa. Depending on the design, the sealing strip may also perform additional movements along the longitudinal axis of the guide rail or the seal.

[0014] The axes mentioned are fictitious and refer to the extent of the features.

[0015] Preferably, the sliding rod is arranged outside the space defined by the sealing strip and the guide profile rail, i.e., it is located not only partially but completely to the side of the seal. In other embodiments, it projects into this space and is only partially located to the side of the seal.

[0016] The inventive unit enables groove depths corresponding to the dimensions used in the prior art for fittings and automatic seals. This is particularly advantageous for windows and glass doors, as it allows for maximizing the glass surface area.

[0017] Furthermore, the unit has a relatively simple design. This reduces manufacturing costs and allows the use of familiar seals and fittings with only minor modifications.

[0018] Another advantage is that a locking mechanism and a seal can be located on the same side and along the entire length of the sash. This also allows the use of a locking fitting with locking bolts or closers on the side with the automatic seal.

[0019] Another advantage is that the sealing strip is only moved into the sealing position when the door or window handle is operated, and is also lifted again when it is closed. Therefore, it does not rub against the floor, wall, or frame when the sash is opened or closed.

[0020] Hardware is the link between the door or window sash and the door or window frame. It ensures the functionality of the door or window, which includes opening and closing and, depending on the design, applying pressure for a tight seal and / or tilting. Hardware is typically operated by a door or window handle, also called a latch, lever, or lever. Hardware usually features sliding rods and vertically projecting locking bolts attached to them, which engage with corresponding closers in the frame. Alternatively, the sliding rods are equipped with closers into which the frame's locking bolts engage. The sliding rod is also called a drive rod. It is preferably a flat rod, preferably with a rectangular cross-section.

[0021] In preferred embodiments of the inventive unit, a seal is combined with a fitting of a known type. In further embodiments of the invention, a fitting is used along the length of the seal, the locking rod of which has no locking bolts and no closers.

[0022] The automatic seal is also called a drop seal. It is usually triggered and actuated mechanically, preferably by the application of an external force, for example by operating the handle of the door or window.

[0023] The seal can be attached to a lower or upper side of the wing or to a lateral end face. Depending on the embodiment, it is, for example, arranged in a groove of the wing, attached to the end face, or positioned laterally to the wing surface. Arrangement in a groove is preferred.

[0024] The guide profile rail is preferably U-shaped and open at the bottom. It serves to accommodate the movement mechanism and preferably to guide the slide. The sealing strip preferably comprises a support profile rail and a sealing profile attached to or molded onto the support profile rail. The sealing profile is preferably made of an elastomeric material. The support profile rail is preferably held in the guide profile rail, in particular by means of the movement mechanism, also called the lowering mechanism. In the raised state, the sealing strip can be wholly or partially contained within the guide profile or can remain below the guide profile rail in this state. During lowering, i.e., during movement into the sealing position, its distance from the guide profile rail increases perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

[0025] The movement mechanism is used to move the sealing strip from its rest or starting position to a sealing position and back, i.e., from a position of the sealing strip adjacent to the guide profile rail to a position further away and back again. The rest or starting position is the non-sealing state, for example, when the door leaf is open. In the sealing position, the sealing strip seals the leaf against a floor, wall, ceiling, threshold, or frame.

[0026] The movement mechanism, also called the lowering mechanism, can be designed in various ways and preferably corresponds to known types. Preferably, it corresponds to one of the types mentioned at the outset and included in this text by reference. Preferably, the lowering mechanism has at least one leaf spring, which is preferably attached to the slide, the sealing strip, preferably the support profile rail, and the guide profile rail. When the sealing strip is lowered, i.e., when the slide is moved along its longitudinal axis, the at least one leaf spring is preferably bent and thus tensioned. When the slide is released, the at least one leaf spring relaxes and pushes the slide back, thus raising the sealing strip to its rest position.Depending on how the at least one leaf spring is attached, the slider must either be moved in one direction to lower the sealing strip or in the opposite direction. This is commonly referred to as triggering by pulling or pushing. In both cases, the slider is moved relative to the guide rail.

[0027] The slide is preferably a flat rod, which is preferably slidably guided in a groove of the guide profile. In other embodiments, it is a rod with a round cross-section. Depending on the embodiment, the slide has a free end with the same cross-section as its rest. In other embodiments, it has a thickened free end or it is connected to a bolt or knob. The slide is also called a base spring, force transmission rod, compression rod, or tension rod.

[0028] Preferably, the sash is a pivoting sash. Preferably, the sash is also tiltable. In the case of a pivoting sash with an additional tilting function, the seal preferably seals in the closed position and preferably also in the tilted position of the sash. In other embodiments, the sash is part of a sliding window or a sliding door, or it is a hinged or tilting sash of a gate or a window.

[0029] Preferably, the sliding rod has locking bolts or locking recesses, in particular closers. The locking bolts or recesses preferably serve to lock the sash in a frame, a threshold, or against a second sash of the door or window. This facilitates sealing and locking on the same side of the sash.

[0030] Preferably, the guide profile rail has a recess into which the force transmission element engages. The recess extends along its longitudinal axis to a length corresponding to at least one sliding path of the slider for moving the sealing strip into the sealing position. This facilitates the release of the seal by the movement of the sliding rod. The recess is preferably a window or a slot.

[0031] Preferably, in the closed or tilted position of the sash handle, the force transmission element connects the sliding rod to the slider, with the connection being released when the sash is open. Alternatively, a permanent fixed connection is also possible.

[0032] The sliding rod of the fitting is preferably positioned lower, i.e., closer to the lower sealing plane of the sealing profile, than the slider of the automatic seal. In some embodiments, however, it is located on approximately the same plane as the slider, or it is even laterally offset above the upper web of the guide profile of the automatic seal. The force transmission element is shaped accordingly in each case.

[0033] The force transmission element can have different shapes. In preferred embodiments, the force transmission element is an angle element, one leg of which is operatively connected to the sliding rod and the other leg of which is operatively connected to the slide. Depending on the embodiment, it is either a simple angle element or a double angle element.

[0034] In simple embodiments, the distance traveled by the sliding rod during the closing movement of the wing handle corresponds to the distance traveled by the slider to lower the seal.

[0035] Preferably, however, a buffer is provided that allows movement or displacement of the sliding rod over a portion of its travel without movement or displacement of the slide itself. This decouples the two functions of the sliding rod, namely locking and activation of the drop seal. The sealing strip is not pressed excessively against the floor or frame.

[0036] This buffer can be designed in different ways. In a preferred embodiment, the buffer forms a gap between the force transmission element and the slide or the sliding rod. As a result, when the handle of the sash is closed, the sliding rod initially moves parallel to the longitudinal axis without actuating the slide, until the sliding rod becomes operatively connected to the slide and the slide is also moved.

[0037] In an alternative or additional preferred embodiment, the buffer has a spring extending along or parallel to the longitudinal axis. In one embodiment, the spring is positioned longitudinally in the direction of the slide and thus along its longitudinal axis, in front of the slide. In another embodiment, it interacts with a driver.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the force transmission element is a driver. The driver can be loosely arranged between the slide and the sliding rod, or it can be rigidly connected to the slide and engage with a corresponding driver element on the sliding rod. Preferably, however, the driver is rigidly connected to the sliding rod. Preferably, a corresponding driver element is provided that is attached to or formed on the slide. The corresponding driver element can have different shapes. It can be formed integrally with the slide, or it can be, for example, glued, screwed, riveted, or welded to it. If the slide is a flat rod, the corresponding driver element is, for example, a flat plate attached to the top of the rod. The driver is preferably formed integrally.

[0039] The drive element preferably has a recess that serves as a driving element. This drive element is easy to manufacture, easy to install, and requires little space between the fitting and the automatic seal.

[0040] In a simple embodiment, the length of the recess along the longitudinal axis corresponds approximately to the displacement of the sliding rod during the closing movement of the sash handle. Preferably, however, the recess serves as a buffer. In this case, it is larger along the longitudinal axis than the displacement of the slider.

[0041] If the force transmission element is a driver, the guide profile rail preferably has a window or slot into which the driver can engage. Preferably, the surface of the driver is flush with the surface of the guide profile rail or slightly recessed relative to the guide profile rail, so that the sealing groove in the sash for the automatic seal does not need to be larger.

[0042] Depending on the design, the window or slot is located in the upper web of the guide rail, i.e., on the top side. In other versions, the window or slot is located in a side wall. Depending on the version, the window or slot is positioned at one end of the guide rail, in the middle, or at any suitable point along the length of the guide rail.

[0043] In some embodiments, the force transmission element acts directly on the slide, for example, by pressing on an end face of the slide and thereby displacing it. In other embodiments, the force transmission element acts indirectly on the slide, for example, by contacting a drive counterpart attached to the slide or a bolt mounted at one end of the slide.

[0044] The sealing device of the unit according to the invention comprises an automatic seal and a force transmission element. The automatic seal has a guide profile rail with a first longitudinal axis, a sealing strip held in the guide profile rail, and a movement mechanism. The sealing strip is movable perpendicular to the first longitudinal axis relative to the guide profile rail by means of the movement mechanism in order to move from a rest position to a sealing position. The movement mechanism has a slide that is movable along the first longitudinal axis to move the sealing strip into the sealing position. The guide profile rail has a recess for engaging a force transmission element. The recess has an extension along the first longitudinal axis that corresponds to at least one displacement of the slide for moving the sealing strip into the sealing position.The force transmission element is displaceable along the first longitudinal axis. It is designed for a functional connection with the slide and with a sliding rod of a fitting.

[0045] Preferably, the force transmission element acts as a driver. The slide preferably has a driver counterpart in the area of ​​the recess, which is movable together with the slide by means of the force transmission element.

[0046] The window and door according to the invention comprise the inventive unit, wherein the automatic seal and the fitting are arranged side by side and parallel to each other on or in the same end face. Preferably, the window or door has a fitting groove for receiving the fitting and a sealing groove for receiving the automatic seal, which are arranged side by side and run parallel to each other.

[0047] Further embodiments are specified in the dependent claims. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0049] Identical and similar parts are marked with the same reference numerals. DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EXECUTION FORMS

[0050] In Figure 1 The figure shows a window or door in a purely schematic and exemplary manner, with a frame R, a sash F, and a handle G. The wall surrounding the window or door is marked with the reference symbol W.

[0051] In this example, the wing F is pivotable, preferably also tiltable. The hinge or band is designated with the reference numeral S, as in Figure 2This is evident. The position of handle G shown in the figures corresponds to an unlocked position in the case of a window. In the closed position of the window, handle G usually points downwards; in a tilted position, it points upwards. When the window sash is open, the handle is usually horizontal. However, these positions can also be different. In the case of doors, the same or different positions of the handle can represent the open or closed position.

[0052] As in the Figures 2 and 3As can be seen, a drop seal D is attached to the underside of the sash F in a sealing groove ND. A fitting B, preferably a locking fitting, is arranged in a fitting groove NB. The fitting B is operatively connected to the handle G via a corner drive known in the prior art. If the seal is arranged in the vertical end face of the sash near the handle, no corner drive is necessary.

[0053] In the illustrated example, only the fitting on the underside of sash F is shown. Preferably, fittings are arranged around the entire perimeter of the sash or at least on more than one side. Preferably, a seal or a sealing groove is arranged next to the corresponding fitting on at least one of these end faces.

[0054] In Figure 2The cover strip 6 of the fitting B is visible. Locking bolts 71 of a sliding rod 7 of the fitting B protrude through openings 61 in the cover strip 6 in order to lock the sash F against a frame or a floor strip in the closed or tilted position of the handle G.

[0055] In Figure 3 The cover strip 6 of the fitting B is visible, as is the first leg 90 of a force transmission element 9. The first leg 90 rests on the underside of the cover strip and is attached to the locking rod 7 by means of a bolt 8. The bolt 8 passes through an elongated hole 60 in the cover strip 6. The elongated hole 60, and thus the force transmission element 9, is located at a distance from the front face of the sash F.

[0056] The cover strip 6 preferably covers the fitting groove NB. The locking strip 7, which is located in the Figures 2 and 3 which is not visible, runs within the fitting groove NB .

[0057] In the Figures 4 and 5 The drop seal D and the fitting B are shown as a unit.

[0058] The drop seal D is preferably an automatic seal, such as that manufactured and distributed by Planet GDZ AG or its legal successor, i.e. the applicant, for many years.

[0059] The lowering seal comprises a guide profile rail 1, a sealing strip held therein with a support profile rail 2 and a sealing profile 3, and a slide 4. The remaining lowering and movement mechanism is not visible. Preferably, this lowering mechanism includes at least one leaf spring, which is pivotably attached at one end to the guide profile rail 1, fixed at the other end to the slide 4, and attached in its central region to the support profile rail 3. Alternative lowering mechanisms, particularly of known types, can also be used.

[0060] The guide profile rail 1 preferably has a U-shaped cross-section with two side walls 11 and an upper web 10 connecting the two side walls 11. It defines a first longitudinal axis Ls, as shown in Figure 4 and 8 is recognizable.

[0061] The guide profile rail 1 is fastened in the sealing groove ND. Alternatively, it can also be fastened to the bottom end face of the sash F or to the lower area of ​​the side surface of the sash F. The same applies to fastening to the other sides of the circumference of the sash F. Various types of fastenings are known in the prior art that can be used here. A preferred fastening using mounting brackets 5 is shown. Two such brackets 5 are inserted under the web 10 on each end face of the guide profile rail 1 and screwed to the sash F by means of fastening screws 50.

[0062] The slider 4 is designed as a flat rod. Depending on the embodiment, it extends over part or the entire length of the guide profile rail 1. It runs parallel to the longitudinal axis Ls. The slider 4 is guided and slidably held in a guide groove 12 of the guide profile rail 1.

[0063] The sealing profile 3 rests on or against a floor, ceiling, or frame in the sealing position, thus defining a sealing plane, in the illustrated example a lower sealing plane. In a rest position, the sealing strip, formed by sealing profile 3 and support profile rail 2, is closer to the guide profile rail 1 than in the sealing position. The fictitious axis of movement A, which shows the movement from the rest position to the sealing position and back, is shown in Figure 8 recognizable.

[0064] Fitting B is preferably also a fitting of a known type, which is only slightly modified to activate the automatic seal. Preferably, it has a locking function.

[0065] The illustrated fitting B is also to be understood as an example. It has a sliding rod 7, preferably a flat rod, which, as mentioned, is operatively connected to the handle G. The sliding rod 7 has a longitudinal axis LV, which in Figure 8The sliding rod 7 preferably has locking bolts 71 of a known type, which are directed away from the sash F to engage in closers arranged in a frame, wall, or floor. The sliding rod 7 typically extends over a wide area of ​​the respective side of the sash F, but usually not over its entire length. The sliding rod 7 is covered on the outside by the cover strip 6. The cover strip 6 has elongated locking openings 61, which are penetrated by the locking bolts 71 at least when the sash is closed.

[0066] The fitting B, in particular the sliding rod 7 with its longitudinal axis Lv, extends parallel to the longitudinal axis Ls of the guide profile rail 1 and thus to the drop seal D. However, it is offset in a perpendicular direction to it. Preferably, it is located in the lower area of ​​the drop seal, i.e., adjacent to the lower sealing plane of the sealing profile 3. This is shown in the Figures 6 and 7 recognizable. Depending on the installation position or shape of the drop seal, the sliding rod 6 can be at the same height as the web 10 of the guide profile rail 1, or above or below it, but always laterally offset.

[0067] The force transmission element 9 connects the sliding rod 7 of the fitting B to the slider 4 of the drop seal D. The force transmission element 9 is designed as a double angle with a first leg 90, a second leg 91 and a third leg 92. It forms a driver, as explained below.

[0068] The force transmission element 9 is rigidly connected to the sliding rod 7 and preferably guided in the fitting B. In this example, its first leg 90 engages the cover strip 6. A fastening element 8 in the form of a bolt passes through a through-opening 900 in the first leg 90 and projects into an opening 70 of the sliding rod 7, being rigidly connected to the sliding rod. The bolt 8 extends within an elongated hole 60 of the cover strip 6. The elongated hole 60, as well as the locking openings 61, extends with its longitudinal direction parallel to the longitudinal axis L.

[0069] The third leg 92 of the force transmission element 9 preferably runs parallel to the first leg 90, preferably forming a right angle with the second leg 91.

[0070] The third leg 92 engages in a window 100 in the web 10 of the guide profile rail 1. Alternatively, the window can also be located in the side wall 11. The third leg 91 has the shape of a fork with two prongs and a recess 920 arranged between them. This recess 920 serves to engage a companion piece, which is located on the slide 4. In this example, this is a flat, preferably cuboid, plate that is attached to the top of the slide 4.

[0071] The second leg 91 runs parallel to the side wall 11 of the guide profile rail 1. In the Figures 6 and 7The arrangement of this unit is shown in the wing F. At least in the area of ​​the travel path of the actuating element 9, the two grooves ND and NB are connected to each other, as shown in Figure 7 This is recognizable. As a result, the double angle element 9 can extend from the covering groove NB to the sealing groove ND and connect the fitting B with the seal D.

[0072] Figure 8 The figure shows the situation with the door or window sash open. The force transmission element 9 surrounds the drive counterpart 40 of the slider 4 on two sides. The surface of the force transmission element 9 is preferably flush with the surface of the web 10 or is even slightly recessed. When the handle G is moved into the closing position, the handle G activates the fitting B or moves the sliding rod 7. Corresponding gears or other mechanisms for actuating fittings are known in the prior art.

[0073] In this example, the sliding rod 7 is moved or pushed to the right. This also moves or pushes the force transmission element 9, i.e., the driver, to the right, as shown by comparing the Figures 8 and 9 is visible.

[0074] The force transmission element 9 engages the drive counterpart 40 and thus the slide 4. The slide 4 is thereby moved or pushed further into the guide profile rail and actuates the rest of the lowering mechanism. Typically, this tensions at least one spring of the lowering mechanism. The sealing strip 2, 3 is thus lowered, as can also be seen by comparing the two figures.

[0075] When handle G opens wing F again, the sliding rod 7 is pushed back to the left. The pressure on slider 4 is released, and the return springs of the seal, in this case the leaf springs, lift the sealing strip 2, 3 again and move or push slider 4 back to the left.

[0076] If the leaf springs were attached in reverse, the sealing strip 2, 3 would also lower, but under tension, i.e. by pulling, and not under compression, i.e. by pushing, as in the example shown.

[0077] As in the Figures 4 , 8 and 9As can be seen in this example, the recess 920 of the force transmission element 9 is only slightly larger than the length of the drive counterpart 40 of the slide. This means that even a small movement of the sliding rod 7 acts on the slide 4. Depending on the design of the fitting B, this can result in the sealing strip 2, 3 being pressed too firmly against the stationary component, e.g., the floor or frame. This can lead to damage.

[0078] In the embodiment according to the Figures 10 and 11 Therefore, a buffer is provided. This is achieved by making the recess 920 of the driver 9 longer than the driver counterpart 40. This creates a clearance 930 between the driving edge of the driver 9 and the contacting edge of the driver counterpart 40, as shown in Figure 10This is evident. The travel distance is thus shortened. Slider 4 is engaged with a delay, and sealing strips 2 and 3 are only lowered to the floor, but not pressed down too firmly.

[0079] In the Figures 12 and 13 Another embodiment is shown. Instead of the window 100, a slot 110 is provided in a side wall 11. A window could also be arranged here in place of the slot 110, which, although mounted laterally, does not extend to the front.

[0080] The force transmission element 9 is again a double angle, with the third leg 92 consisting solely of a prong or finger that either contacts the end face of the slide 4 to move the slide 4, or, for the same purpose, contacts a bolt (not visible here) attached to the end face of the slide 4. The force transmission element 9 thus does not act as a driver, but rather pushes the slide further into the guide profile rail 1 to actuate the remaining lowering mechanism and lower the sealing strip 2, 3.

[0081] The remaining components and their functions are the same as in the previous examples.

[0082] In the embodiment according to the Figures 14 to 17The force transmission element 9 engages in the upper window 100 of the seal. It is again designed as a driver. Instead of the plate-shaped driver counterpart 40, a multi-part driver counterpart is provided. It comprises a first block 41, a second block 43, and a spring 43 arranged between them, preferably a coil spring. The two blocks 41, 42 are preferably guided in the guide groove 12 and are displaceable along the longitudinal axis Ls. The first block 41 rests against the driver edge in the recess of the third leg 92 or is attached to it. The second block 42 is fixedly connected to the slide. Instead of the illustrated square blocks 41, 42, other shapes can also be used. In particular, they can be formed integrally with the driver or the slide.

[0083] As by combining the Figures 14 and 15As can be seen, when the handle G is closed, the spring 43 is first compressed without the slider 4 moving, and only when a spring tension is reached is the slider 4 moved.

[0084] The remaining components and their functions are the same as in the previous examples.

[0085] In the Figures 18 to 20 Another embodiment is shown. It is designed similarly to the first embodiment. The force transmission element 9 is again a driver, but it is designed as a simple angle. That is, the third leg is missing and the recess 93 is arranged on the second leg 92, which runs parallel to the side wall 11.

[0086] In this example, the drive counterpart 40 extends beyond the slide 4 on one side so that it can engage in the recess 93.

[0087] This recess 93 can have a shallow depth. Regarding its length, the same principles apply as described in the first and second examples. If it essentially corresponds to the length of the drive counterpart 40, as shown in this example, the movement of the sliding rod 7 is transferred almost completely to the slide 4. If it is larger, a buffer is created.

[0088] The remaining components and their functions are the same as in the previous examples.

[0089] The inventive unit is relatively simple in design, allows for flat grooves and enables sealing and locking on the same side of a wing. REFERENCE MARK LIST
