Abstract
Description
[0001] Arrangement comprising a drive device, a component for
[0002] Closing an opening and a guide device
[0003] The invention relates to an arrangement comprising at least one, in particular precisely one and / or electric, drive device, a component displaceable relative to a wall element, in particular a window or door or panel element, for closing an opening in the wall element, and at least one guide device with which the component is displaceable relative to the wall element. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for moving such an arrangement.
[0004] Such an arrangement is already known from document EP 3 722 547 A1, whereby a sliding window can be moved along a window frame in a motorized manner.
[0005] A disadvantage of the prior art is that the drive device is only intended to carry out a sliding movement, whereby due to the structural design, for example, a sequence of driven and manually operable movement sections is not provided, so that the functionality of the drive device is restricted to the movement or is severely limited.
[0006] The objective technical object of the present invention is therefore to provide an arrangement and an improved method that are improved over the prior art, in which the disadvantages of the prior art are at least partially eliminated, and which are characterized in particular by increased functionality in conjunction with the at least one drive device with respect to the movement sequence of the component relative to the wall element. This object is achieved by the features of claim 1.
[0007] It is therefore provided according to the invention that at least one switch and / or at least one sensor, preferably a metal detector, is provided, by means of which a partial open position of the component can be detected and / or by means of which, preferably as a function of detection of the partial open position starting from a fully open position, the at least one drive device can be activated and / or, preferably as a function of detection of the partial open position starting from a closed position, the at least one drive device can be deactivated.
[0008] This makes it possible to generate an increased information content for the movement sequence of the component in order to use this, for example, for the efficient or particularly advantageous use of the at least one drive device.
[0009] By detecting or determining the entry into the partial open position, it can be ensured that the at least one drive device - in particular an electric motor of the electric drive device - is only active or only needs to draw power when this is actually required to drive the component, whereby energy can be saved.
[0010] In addition, a directional dependency in the sense of entry into the partial open position from a direction of the closed position or from a direction of the fully open position can be determined - for example by recording over a time interval and / or spaced positions and / or by determining a contact direction - in order to initiate a correct movement sequence depending on the concrete positioning in the partial open position and / or a history of a specific movement trajectory.For example, a manual displacement process of the component parallel to the at least one guide device can automatically enable a driven movement section of the component orthogonal to the at least one guide device - mediated via the at least one drive device - or a manual movement section can be enabled - without the involvement of the at least one drive device or with force assistance via the at least one drive device - in response to a driven movement section of the component. The partial open position, which can be used, for example, to ventilate a room, allows a defined localization of the component with regard to the use of the at least one drive device.
[0011] In general, it is possible to design the at least one switch (exclusively) mechanically, with the partial open position being detected, for example, by the unambiguous positioning of a bolt on a control cam. The switch preferably comprises electronics for determining the partial open position; alternatively or additionally, other sensors such as distance measuring devices or position measuring devices can be selected.
[0012] The at least one switch and / or the at least one sensor system can be assigned to the at least one drive device or arranged spatially separate from the at least one drive device—for example, on a hinge and / or a guide device. The manner of registration of the partial open position or actuation of the at least one switch and / or the at least one sensor system is generally arbitrary and can be carried out, for example, by means of capacitance or induction measurement, via contact via a carriage or a hinge, etc.
[0013] The at least one switch and / or the at least one sensor system can ensure that the at least one drive device is only activated when the partial open position is reached, and / or that no further force is transmitted to the component once the partial open position is reached. This prevents improper positioning of the component along the movement sequence or unwanted movements.
[0014] For example, an automated transition to the closed position can be effected following a manual transition to the partially open position, and vice versa. For example, a pinch protection device can be provided to protect an operator.
[0015] The component is not restricted to a (glass) window and the arrangement is not restricted to use in wall elements, whereby the arrangement can be sold in isolation and used in any desired area of application, for example as a cladding element in the form of a room divider or as a - particularly transparent - door.
[0016] Wall elements (of rooms) can generally be understood to mean house walls, with roof walls of houses being included under house walls. In the position of use of the arrangement, the component can cover the opening of the wall element in connection with a room of the house or the like. Particularly preferably, the component is displaceable relative to a part of the guide device orthogonally for deployment into a partially open position in the form of a state of the component moved completely orthogonally to the wall element or the part of the guide device (parallel to the plane of the component). In general, starting from this orthogonally deployed position, the component can then be deployed in a direction oriented normal to this direction of movement and vice versa.
[0017] Particularly preferably, in a closed position of the component—in particular when viewed orthogonally to the component—no guide rail of the at least one guide device is visible. The component can be designed without a frame, although it is also possible to displace the frame conventionally provided for the component into the wall element. The component preferably comprises a frame to enhance thermal insulation properties and / or conceal the movement technology.
[0018] As stated at the outset, protection is also sought for a method for moving an arrangement according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the following method steps are carried out:
[0019] - the component is moved, preferably starting from a closed position and / or driven by the at least one drive device or starting from a fully open position and / or manually, into the partially open position and
[0020] - The at least one switch and / or the at least one sensor detects the partial open position of the component and / or activates or deactivates the at least one drive device. The at least one drive device can be activated or deactivated upon entering the partial open position via a drive control or a power supply for the at least one drive device.
[0021] The partial open position can be defined, for example, by a state in which the at least one guide device is moved completely orthogonally to the longitudinal extent. Analogous to a conventional window, this parallel extended position corresponds to a tilt position, which must be carried out manually to ventilate a room. According to the invention, a - preferably partial - opening and / or closing process can be carried out by the at least one drive device, wherein additional functions, such as safety functions (child safety lock) or automation functions (restoration of the desired air quality), can be effected flexibly and user-friendly via the at least one drive device or by means of a control and / or regulating device that is in a radio signal-transmitting or wired data connection therewith.
[0022] Advantageous embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
[0023] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the at least one switch and / or the at least one sensor system can be actuated by at least one carriage arranged on the at least one guide device, preferably a guide rail on the wall element side of the at least one guide device, and / or a power supply to the at least one drive device can be connected and / or interrupted depending on the at least one switch (21) and / or the at least one sensor system. Advantageously, it is provided that the component can be displaced by the at least one drive device relative to the at least one guide device orthogonally relative to a longitudinal extent of the at least one guide device.
[0024] This makes it possible for the component to be moved parallel to the wall element - on which the arrangement can be mounted - in order, for example, to be able to ventilate a room in a building and / or subsequently to enable, in a second movement section of the component, a movement parallel to the wall element and orthogonal to the direction of the previous movement section, without ensuring a collision with the wall element and to ensure that the opening of the wall element is cleared.
[0025] The orthogonal displacement makes it possible for the component to be moved automatically via the at least one drive device from a closed position parallel to the wall element and / or a plane spanned by two guide devices into a partially open position - in particular for ventilating a room or for positioning the component in a position in which the component can be moved into the fully open position parallel to the at least one guide device outside the room.
[0026] Another positive effect is that the at least one guide device can be hidden at least partially within the wall element and / or the component, so that a visually particularly appealing arrangement can be specified, whereby the visual impression can be further improved by arranging the component flush with the wall element. Flush is to be interpreted broadly enough to include even a slight protrusion of the component in the closed position - for example from the facade. In the direction of the fully open position (after an orthogonal movement), the component can be moved laterally along the facade. However, the flushness can alternatively or additionally relate to the opening of the wall element, whereby in the closed state preferably no guide (in relation to a component stock) needs to be visible.
[0027] The at least one drive device can support the manual force of an operator of the component or perform a fully automated movement of the component—at least in sections. The at least one drive device can ensure correct positioning of the component relative to the at least one guide device and / or—in particular remotely—block movements of the component or—in particular automatically—initiate them. The at least one drive device preferably comprises an electric motor.
[0028] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the at least one guide device is arranged in the position of use on an upper side and / or an underside of the component and / or the component can be displaced by the at least one drive device relative to the at least one guide device parallel to the longitudinal extent of the at least one guide device.
[0029] The arrangement on the top or bottom side enables lateral guidance of the component, in which the front of the component is not impaired by the at least one guide device, wherein the at least one guide device can be concealed, for example, in a frame element in order not to reduce the transparency of the component in a central region.
[0030] By means of a displacement parallel to the longitudinal extension, the opening of the wall element can be left free to a large extent, whereby in particular no pivoting operation is necessary, so that the risk of falling out of the opening of the wall element is reduced and the accessibility of the component is designed particularly favorably throughout the entire movement sequence.
[0031] Advantageously, it is provided that the component is displaceable parallel along the longitudinal extent of the at least one guide device, preferably between a partial open position and a fully open position and / or at least 300 mm, particularly preferably at least 600 mm, and / or the component is movable substantially orthogonally to the longitudinal extent of the at least one guide device, preferably between a closed position and a partial open position and / or between 50 mm and 300 mm, particularly preferably between 100 mm and 150 mm.
[0032] It has proven advantageous that the at least one guide device for the relative movement of the component relative to the wall element comprises a component-side guide rail and / or a wall-element-side guide rail and / or the at least one guide device is integrated at least in regions in a component block of the wall element and / or in a frame of the component, wherein it is preferably provided that the component-side guide rail is countersunk in the component and / or the wall-element-side guide rail is countersunk in the wall element and / or the component is arranged substantially flush with the wall element in a closed position and / or the component is arranged parallel to the wall element in a partially open position and / or in a fully open position.
[0033] If the guide device is divided into two parts and one guide rail is assigned to the fixed wall element and one guide rail to the component, the component can be moved particularly conveniently laterally via hinges to free the opening, whereby countersinking the guide rails reduces soiling and generates a visually appealing impression, which is particularly essential for windows or doors made of glass or plastic.
[0034] A parallel arrangement requires a small amount of space inside or outside the wall element, whereby a frame can be provided as a frame panel to conceal components of the movement technology.
[0035] Particularly preferably, the component is arranged substantially flush with the wall element in the closed position and / or the fully open position and / or arranged with side surfaces substantially flush with a component block of the wall element in the closed position and / or the partially open position.
[0036] Preferably, the component components required for guiding the component protrude transversely from the plane of the wall element, so that essentially no components such as hinges have to protrude vertically upwards or downwards into the space defined by the component stock in the position of use, thus forming a particularly compact guide system.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the component is movable by the at least one drive device and / or manually relative to the at least one guide device, preferably between a closed position and a partially open position and / or between a partially open position and a fully open position, wherein it is preferably provided that the component is lockable in the closed position, in the partially open position and / or in the fully open position, particularly preferably by a bolt that can be pivoted into the at least one drive device and / or arranged on a roller.
[0037] The at least one drive device can ensure automated movement of the component or reduce the effort required for manual movement of the component. The at least one drive device can drive the component in certain areas—for example, between the closed position and the partially open position—or impart force up to the fully open position. It is also conceivable for the component to be freely manually movable in a free-running area and, if necessary, to be moved automatically by the at least one drive device.
[0038] A locking of the at least one drive device is preferably generated via at least one bolt, wherein the number of bolts is generally arbitrary and other locking means are also conceivable. Particularly preferably, at least one bolt interacts with a control cam of the at least one drive device in order, for example, to be able to ensure or inhibit varying movement trajectories of hinges or the component. For example, the relative positioning of the at least one locking means to a control cam or a further locking means can block a first direction of movement for a hinge and release a second direction of movement for the hinge - optionally depending on a position of the hinge.
[0039] If the at least one locking means is arranged on the roller, this roller can serve a dual function, for example, for the vertical synchronization of two guide devices. In general, any position of the component can be fixed by blocking or locking the at least one drive device and / or clamping or locking the component along the at least one guide device.
[0040] An advantageous variant of the present invention is that the at least one drive device is coupled or can be coupled to a control and / or regulating device, preferably a building control system, wherein preferably at least one sensor, particularly preferably a CO2 sensor, is provided for measuring a property of a building and / or the at least one drive device can be activated by the control and / or regulating device, particularly preferably as a function of a sensor signal from the at least one sensor.
[0041] For example, a building control system can, depending on lighting conditions, a time of day, a temperature, a humidity, an air quality, etc., initiate the at least one drive device to maneuver the component into the partial or full open position in order to ventilate or shock-ventilate a room.
[0042] The type of sensor is generally arbitrary, although a sensor can generally be omitted and, for example, the at least one drive device can be activated by the control and / or regulating device at a predefined time. Alternatively or additionally, the control and / or regulating device can represent part of the at least one drive device or be integrated into it.
[0043] The control and / or regulating device preferably comprises a computing unit, a storage unit, a receiving unit and / or a data transfer module, wherein, for example, an algorithm stored in a computer program product can be provided for controlling or regulating the at least one drive device.
[0044] It is particularly preferred that the at least one drive device can be operated manually and / or is designed in the form of a crank or at least one switch, preferably a radio switch and / or control switch, is provided with which the at least one drive device can be activated.
[0045] A manual force can be transmitted to the at least one guide device via a crank - for example in conjunction with a cable pull - or the like. Alternatively or additionally, the component can comprise a handle for manual displacement. Preferably, the movement of the component is effected via an electric drive device, although other
[0046] drive mechanisms are possible.
[0047] By means of the at least one switch (arranged, for example, on the at least one guide device and / or on the wall element), the at least one drive device can be activated remotely or in a specific position - for example the partially open position. In one embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the at least one drive device is arranged in the region of a corner of the component or in a central region of a side surface of the component, wherein it is preferably provided that two drive devices are arranged diagonally in the region of two corners of the component.
[0048] One drive device is sufficient for an opening and closing movement of the component, with an arrangement of the drive device near the corner of the component facilitating maintenance and assembly. If the drive device is arranged on the outside of the at least one guide device, collisions with moving components are reduced, and the drive device can also be concealed within the wall element.
[0049] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the at least one drive device interacts with at least one hinge, preferably comprising two toggle levers, wherein preferably four hinges are provided in the region of four corners of the component and / or two hinges are arranged on a possibly present component stock and / or two further hinges are arranged on the component and / or a movement of at least two hinges in the use position of the arrangement is synchronized horizontally and / or vertically and / or a toggle lever is provided to compensate for a weight load of the component and a further toggle lever is provided to guide the component.
[0050] A hinge with at least one toggle lever has proven particularly effective for efficient movement of the component, whereby a toggle lever can be understood as an articulated connection via a knee joint. The hinge can - particularly with at least two toggle levers - comprise different functions, such as load transfer, lateral guidance or orthogonal movement, etc. Two toggle levers can be arranged on the same hinge or separately on two hinges, whereby it is generally conceivable to provide only one toggle lever or to design the hinge without a toggle lever.
[0051] It has proven advantageous that at least one hinge is arranged stationary on the wall element-side guide rail and at least one hinge is arranged stationary on the component-side guide rail, so that the component-side guide rail is movable relative to the wall element-side guide rail.
[0052] This means that a component-side guide rail can be moved together with the component in a particularly stable, safe and harmonious manner relative to a fixed wall element-side guide rail.
[0053] Furthermore, it is preferably provided that exactly one drive device and two or four hinges are provided, wherein the at least one drive device is arranged on one of the two or four hinges and one of the two or two of the four hinges is / are movable by the at least one drive device relative to the further hinge or the further two hinges.
[0054] In a further embodiment, it can be provided that in the position of use two, preferably displaceably mounted, horizontally oriented synchronization rods are provided, wherein for the synchronization of at least two hinges, preferably arranged in a form-fitting manner on the synchronization rods, a cable comprising a cable figure eight for the opposite rotation of the synchronization rods, preferably between 90 ° and 150 °, is provided and / or the at least one hinge comprises a carriage, wherein it is preferably provided that two carriages can be moved on the optionally present component-side guide rail and / or two carriages can be moved on the optionally present wall element-side guide rail.
[0055] The synchronization rods serve to vertically synchronize the movement of the component. Generally, it is conceivable to provide only one synchronization rod, to arrange the synchronization rod(s) vertically, to decouple the hinges or cable from the synchronization rods, or to provide other synchronization means.
[0056] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the at least one hinge is oriented inclined relative to a vertical of the use position to compensate for tilting or lowering of the component and / or comprises a cable pull to compensate for tilting of the component relative to a horizontal of the use position, wherein it is preferably provided that the cable pull comprises a conical drum for shortening a cable length and / or a position-variable deflection pulley.
[0057] In the partially or fully open position, the component may tend to sag or tilt due to gravity, whereby a joint axis of a toggle lever counteracts tilting or sagging of the component from the closed position to the partially open position by means of an inclination.
[0058] The cable pull can be provided for load transfer due to the sliding movement and can be designed in such a way that a moment which increases with the progression of the opening movement is compensated.
[0059] Lowering or tipping of the component can be prevented by the orientation of the hinge and / or by a cable pull or the like, or can even be overcompensated by lifting the component.
[0060] In a preferred embodiment, it is provided that a bending movement of a toggle lever of the at least one hinge from a partially open position towards a fully open position can be blocked and / or a clamping lever, preferably coupled to a brake, is provided, with which the at least one hinge can be automatically clamped at any position between the partially open position and the fully open position, wherein the component can be displaced along the at least one guide device by actuating the clamping lever, wherein it is preferably provided that the clamping lever comprises a handle which can be retracted at least partially into a possibly present frame of the component and / or can be adjusted discretely or continuously.
[0061] By blocking the bending movement - alternatively or in addition to blocking the at least one drive device (for example via the power supply or deactivation or locking by a bolt) - burglar protection in the closed position can be ensured and / or buckling of a hinge can be prevented when the component is moved parallel to the fully open position.
[0062] A brake can increase the service life of the assembly by preventing abrupt, secure fixation of the component. The handle can release a jam or the brake, allowing the component to be moved manually or using at least one drive device. The automatic clamping of the component prevents the component from being moved sideways, for example, by wind.
[0063] It is particularly preferably provided that the at least one switch and / or the at least one sensor system is actuated by at least one carriage and / or a power supply of the at least one drive device is connected and / or interrupted depending on the at least one switch and / or the at least one sensor system.
[0064] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the component is moved relative to the at least one guide device via the at least one drive device, wherein the component is displaced by the at least one drive device orthogonally to the longitudinal extent of the at least one guide device relative to the at least one guide device from a closed position into a partially open position or from a partially open position into a closed position to conceal the opening of the wall element.
[0065] It is preferably provided that the at least one drive device is locked and / or coupled to a control and / or regulating device, wherein the at least one drive device is activated by the control and / or regulating device, preferably as a function of a sensor signal from at least one sensor.
[0066] It is preferably provided that the component is displaced, preferably via the at least one drive device, parallel to the longitudinal extent of the at least one guide device from the partial open position into a fully open position for at least partially exposing the opening, orthogonally to the opening or from the fully open position into the partial open position.

[0086] The component 3 can be arranged substantially flush with the wall element 2 in the closed position 12 and parallel to the wall element 2 in the partially open position 10 and in the fully open position 11.
[0087] In Fig. 3a and 3b, the partial open position 10 and the closed position 12 of the component 3 relative to the guide devices 5 can be seen in a sectional view.
[0088] In the enlarged detail it can be seen that in the use position 7 two displaceably mounted and horizontally oriented synchronization rods 27 are provided.

[0093] Fig. 5b shows the guide devices 5 in a partially open position 10, while in Fig. 5c the guide devices 5 are shown in a fully open position 11 of the component 3.
[0094] Fig. 5c shows, in comparison to Fig. 5b, that two hinges 25 are arranged stationary on the wall element-side guide rail 14 and two hinges 25 are arranged stationary on the component-side guide rail 13, so that the component-side guide rail 13 is movable relative to the wall element-side guide rail 14, wherein two hinges 25 are displaceable relative to two hinges 25.
[0095] Fig. 5d shows an enlarged view of a guide device 5 connected to the component 3, wherein the component-side guide rail 13 is movable parallel relative to the wall element-side guide rail 14.
[0096] In Fig. 6a, a hinge 25 is shown in the closed position 12, which can be moved into the position in Fig. 6c of the partial open position 10 and the fully open position 11 via the relative arrangement of the two toggle levers 24 in Fig. 6b, in order to be able to move the component orthogonally and parallel relative to the guide device 5.
[0097] The hinge 25 comprises a carriage 30, wherein generally two carriages 30 are movable on the component-side guide rail 13 and two carriages 30 are movable on the wall element-side guide rail 14.
[0098] Fig. 6c shows the hinge 25 in an exploded view, with two articulated levers per toggle lever 24 being connected to one another via an articulated connection.
[0099] Fig. 7a shows a hinge 25 with components involved in locking or blocking the hinge 25 in an exploded view.
[0100] With the three bolts 17, movements of the hinges 25 or a movement transmission by the drive device 1 can be locked or released via corresponding control cams for the bolts 17. The hinge comprises three control cams with individual curvatures.
[0101] A bolt 17 is pivotally mounted on a roller 16, which roller 16 is also used to synchronize the arrangement. The component 3 can be locked in the closed position 12 to ensure burglar protection. The component 3 can be locked in the partially open position 10 to ensure ventilation of a room without completely exposing the opening 4. The component 3 can be locked in or before the fully open position 11 to prevent wind-induced or unintentional movements of the component 3.
[0102] Fig. 7b to Fig. 7e show the movement trajectories of the bolts 17 in order to release the toggle levers 24 for extension from the folded position, wherein the three bolts 17 perform different pivoting movements along the control curves.
[0103] Fig. 7f to Fig. 7h show an extension of a hinge 25 via the two toggle levers 24, wherein the bolt 17 arranged on the roller 16 is also moved during the extension. Subsequently, the bolts 17 can be moved back to their original position in order to repeat the movement sequence, wherein, for example, the roller 16 is rotated in the opposite direction, but the bolts 17 can be moved further into their previous position via the control cams.
[0104] A bending movement of a toggle lever 24 of the hinge 25 can be locked for the parallel displacement along the guide devices 5 from the partial open position 10 towards the fully open position 11.
[0105] Fig. 7 i shows a basic body of the hinge 25, the hinge 25 being oriented at an angle to a vertical 31 of the use position 7 via a bore arranged at an angle to the vertical 31 to compensate for any tilting or lowering of the component 3. The joint axis bore being inclined relative to the vertical 31 prevents the tendency of the component 3 to sag from the closed position 12 into the partially open position 11 due to gravity. The joint axis of a toggle lever 24 of the two hinges 25 to be connected to a component stock 15 on the wall element side is thus slightly inclined relative to the vertical 31.
[0106] In Fig. 7j to Fig. 71 the hinge 25 can be seen without the weight of the component 3, wherein the component 3 is lifted due to the inclination of the hinge 25 starting from Fig. 7j in the closed position 12, the hinge 25 in the partially open position 10 in Fig. 71 - via the intermediate position in Fig. 7k -, wherein the vertical distance generated thereby is deformed elastically to 0 ° by the mass of the component 3 if necessary.
[0107] Fig. 8 shows the components relevant for driving component 3, with the right-hand view showing a drive device 1 provided as an electric drive device 1. Generally, no further drive device 1 is required.
[0108] The component 3 can be displaced by the drive device 1 relative to the guide devices 5 orthogonally relative to a longitudinal extension 6 (see Fig. 5c) of the guide device 5.
[0109] In this embodiment, the component 3 can be moved by the drive device 1 relative to the guide device 5 between the closed position 12 and the partially open position 10 and manually displaced between the partially open position 10 and the fully open position 11. The drive device 1 is coupled to a control and / or regulating device 18 on the drive device 1, wherein the control and / or regulating device can alternatively or additionally be in the form of a spatially separate building control system.
[0110] The arrangement comprises a sensor 19 in the form of a CO2 sensor for measuring air quality in a building (other properties such as temperature or humidity are also possible).
[0111] The drive device 1 can be activated by the control and / or regulating device 18 depending on a sensor signal from the sensor 19, but can generally also be activated, for example, based on time or lighting conditions. The input signal for activating the drive device is generally arbitrary.
[0112] For example, this one drive device 1 can be provided for the interaction of two or four hinges 25, wherein the drive device 1 is arranged on one of the two or four hinges 25 and one of the two or two of the four hinges 25 is / are movable by the drive device 1 relative to the further hinge 25 or the further two hinges 25.
[0113] As an alternative, a manual drive device 1 in the form of a crank 20 is provided at the bottom left.
[0114] A switch 21 for activating the drive device 1 is shown schematically at the top left. This switch can generally also be arranged, for example, on the wall element 2 as a radio switch or on the control and / or regulating device 18 as a control switch. Activation can be wired, but is preferably done wirelessly. For this purpose, the drive device 1 comprises a receiving device, wherein the drive device 1 can comprise a data transfer module with which information such as usage time, movement data, or the like can be transferred to an electronic device for evaluation.
[0115] The switch 21 can, for example, also be arranged on the guide device 5 or be provided as a sensor 39 in the form of a metal detector to detect a partial open position 10 of the component 3 and, for example, to directly inform the control and / or regulating device 18 or the drive device 1 of the detection in the form of a digital data set. Preferably, the switch 21 or the sensor 39 can be actuated by a carriage 30 (of the guide rail 14 on the wall element side).
[0116] The drive device 1 can be activated depending on a detection of the partial open position 10 starting from a full open position 11 and can be deactivated depending on a detection of the partial open position 10 starting from a closed position 12.
[0117] Fig. 9 shows that for the synchronization of the two hinges 25 arranged in a form-fitting manner on the synchronization rods 27, a cable 28 comprising a cable eight 29 is provided for the opposite rotation of the synchronization rods 27.
[0118] In this embodiment, two cables 28 are provided on opposite sides of the guide devices 5, although this is not absolutely necessary. The synchronization rods 27 rotate approximately 120° during use.
[0119] The toggle lever 24, which is provided for the function of the guide, is positively connected and, in the case of the component-side guide rail 13, slidably connected to the synchronization rods 27.
[0120] Two hinges 25 are arranged on a component stock 15 and two further hinges 25 are arranged on the component 3, wherein a movement of the hinges 25 in the use position 7 of the arrangement is synchronized horizontally and vertically.
[0121] A toggle lever 24 of the respective hinge 25 is provided to compensate for a weight load of the component 3 and another toggle lever 24 of the respective hinge 25 is provided to guide the component 3.
[0122] At the bottom right of the illustration, a sensor 39 for detecting the partial open position 10 is arranged, which is designed as a switch 21. The mode of operation during entry into the partial open position 10 is shown in Fig. 10a and Fig. 10b. Alternatively or additionally, the partial open position 10 can be determined by a switch 21 or a sensor 39, for example, via a rotational position of a component - such as the synchronization rod 27.
[0123] Fig. 10a and Fig. 10b show the hinge 25 in an enlarged view in the connection to the component 3 in the form of a window before the transition (generally from the closed position 12 or the fully open position 11) into the partially open position 12 in the folded position. The sensor system 39 comprises the switch 21, which in Fig. 10a is a
[0124] Power supply to the drive device is interrupted or kept active (depending on the direction of entry into the partially open position 10). In Fig. 10b the component 3 is located in the partially open position 10, so that the switch 21 of the sensor system 39 establishes or interrupts the power supply to the drive device via a tilting movement - caused by a movement of a carriage 30 and preferably via an electrical contact element. In general, the sensor system 39 or the switch 21 can be designed to activate the control and / or regulating device 18 of the drive device 1 or the drive device 1 itself.
[0125] Fig. 11a shows the closed position 12 of the component 3 on the component support 15, wherein a cable pull 33 is provided to compensate for a tilting of the component 3 relative to a horizontal 32 of the use position 7.
[0126] In Fig . 11b , the component 3 was transferred into the partially open position 10 by orthogonal parallel displacement of at least 50 mm , wherein the component 3 can then be displaced parallel along the longitudinal extension 6 of the guide devices 5 by at least 600 mm .
[0127] In the enlarged detail, it can be seen that a clamping lever 36 is provided which is coupled to a brake (not shown for reasons of clarity) and with which the hinges 25 can be automatically clamped at any position between the partially open position 10 and the fully open position 11, wherein the component 3 can be displaced along the guide devices 5 by actuating the clamping lever 36. The clamping lever 36 comprises a handle 37 which can be retracted into a frame 38 of the component 3. The clamping lever 36 can be designed to be discretely or continuously adjustable.
[0128] Fig. 11c shows the component 3 with the guide devices 5, wherein the enlarged detail sections show the connection of a hinge 25 with the surrounding components of a guide device, which are driven by the drive device 1 and can be moved manually.
[0129] The guide devices 5 are arranged in the use position 7 on an upper side 8 and a lower side 9 of the component 3, wherein the component 3 can be displaced by the drive device 1 relative to the guide devices 5 parallel to the longitudinal extension 6 of the guide devices 5.
[0130] The four hinges 25 are provided in the closed position 12 and partially open position 10 in the region of four corners 22 of the component 3, wherein in the fully open position 11 two hinges 25 are movable along two side surfaces 23 of the component.
[0131] Fig. 11d differs from Fig. 11b only in that the clamping lever 36 has been moved into a position in which the component 3 can be moved laterally from the existing partial open position 10 in the direction of the fully open position 11.
[0132] The two drive devices 1 are each in the area of a
[0133] Corner 22 of component 3, whereby the two
[0134] Drive devices 1 are arranged diagonally in the area of the two corners 22 of the component 3. An arrangement at a central
[0135] Area of a side surface 23 of the component 3 is also conceivable.
[0136] Fig. 12a shows that the clamping lever 36 is connected to a guide device 5 via a cable, so that upon actuation of the clamping lever 36, an automatic fixation of the component 3 to the guide device 5 is released, allowing the component 3 to be displaced. Clamping can generally be achieved by positive locking and / or force locking.
[0137] Fig. 12b shows the cable pulley 33 in isolation, wherein the cable pulley 33 comprises a conical drum 34 for shortening a cable length and two positionally variable deflection pulleys 35. The conical drum 34 can also be regarded as a deflection pulley 35.
[0138] In Fig . 12c the shortening of the rope length with varying positions of the component 3 along the guide devices 5 is visualized .
[0139] The cable length of the cable pull 33, which is not assigned to the conical drum 34, is the longest in the left-hand illustration, which corresponds to the closed position 12 of the component in the lower illustration. Via the intermediate position (corresponds to the central illustration of the conical drum 34 and the central illustration of the component 3), the component reaches the completely open position 11 (upper illustration of the component 3), whereby the cable length of the cable pull 33, which is not wound on the conical drum 34, is shortened (right-hand illustration of the conical drum 34), so that sagging or tipping of the component 3 is inhibited.An exemplary method for moving an arrangement can be exemplified as follows: The component 3 is moved relative to the guide device 5 via the drive device 1, the component 3 being displaced by the drive device 1 orthogonally to the longitudinal extent 6 of the guide device 5 relative to the guide device 5 from the closed position 12 into the partial open position 10 to expose the opening 4 of the wall element 2 or vice versa to completely cover the opening 4. The component 3 is displaced manually or via the drive device 1 parallel to the longitudinal extent 6 of the guide device 5 from the partial open position 10 into the fully open position 11 to expose the opening 4 orthogonally to the opening 4 or vice versa to partially cover the opening 4.
[0140] The drive device 1 can, for example, be locked in the closed position 12 and coupled to a control and / or regulating device 18 such that the drive device 1 is activated by the control and / or regulating device 18 as a function of a sensor signal from the sensor 19 or directly by the sensor 19 in order to generate a movement of the component 3 from the closed position 12 into the partially open position 10 or vice versa, wherein the partial open position 10 can be detected by the switch 21 or the sensor system 39 in a direction-dependent manner and via a carriage 30 for activating or deactivating the drive device 1.
