Said door wing is mounted so that it is able to slide between a closed position and an open position on a runner device, by means of a roller element (3, 103, 203, 303, 403a, 403b). It is possible to ensure easy control of the opening and closing movement by arranging the runner device so that it is mobile, and is able to move by pivoting from a tilted position in the closing direction of the door wing (2, 102, 202, 302, 402) to a tilted position in the opening direction of said door wing (2, 102, 202, 302, 402), by means of at least one adjusting drive mechanism.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Schiebetür gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Patentanspruch 1.The present invention relates to a sliding door according to the preamble of claim 1.

Schiebetüren werden in ein- oder zweiflügeliger Ausführung mit oder ohne motorische Betätigungsvorrichtung in einer Vielzahl von Anwendungen eingesetzt. Als Laufeinrichtung dient dabei beispielsweise eine Laufschiene, die oberhalb des Öffnungsbereiches vorgesehen ist, und auf der die Rollbeschläge der Türflügel laufen.Sliding doors are available in one or two-leaf versions with or without a motorized operating device used in a variety of applications. Serves as a running device in this case, for example, a running rail which is provided above the opening area, and on which the roller fittings of the door leaves run.

Aus der DD 153 162 A ist eine Schiebetür bekannt, die auf einer gegenüber der horizontalen in Schließrichtung geneigten Schiene aufgehängt ist. Auf diese Weise wird erreicht, daß die Schiebetür selbsttätig schließbar ist. Zur motorischen Öffnung einer solchen Schiebetür ist jedoch ein relativ aufwendiger Antrieb erforderlich. Ähnliche Schiebetüren mit geneigten Laufschienen sind in den US-Patenten US 1 576 098 A, US 3 074 124 A, US 3 318 048 A und US 3 805 450 A offenbart.A sliding door is known from the DD 153 162 A, which is on one opposite the horizontal rail is inclined in the closing direction. In this way it is achieved that the Sliding door can be closed automatically. For the motorized opening of such a sliding door however, a relatively complex drive is required. Similar sliding doors with sloping ones Running rails are in US Patents US 1,576,098 A, US 3,074,124 A, US 3,318,048 A. and US 3 805 450 A.

Ein weiterer Nachteil der obigen Lösungen besteht darin, daß besondere Vorkehrungen zum Offenhalten des oder der Türflügel erforderlich sind. Insbesondere nachteilig sind dabei die oft sehr aufwendigen Zusatzeinrichtungen, welche für den Notfall, z.B. Ausfall der Energieversorgung oder Störung im Hydrauliksystem, ein Öffnen der Türe ermöglichen sollen.Another disadvantage of the above solutions is that special precautions for Keep the door wing or doors open. The are particularly disadvantageous often very complex additional devices which are used for emergencies, e.g. Power supply failure or malfunction in the hydraulic system, should allow the door to be opened.

Aus der US 1 599 328 A und der US 1 820 941 A sind Schiebetüren bekannt, bei denen die Türflügel auf Laufschienen gelagert sind, deren Neigung verstellbar ist. Durch diese Neigungsverstellung kann die Öffnungs- bzw. Schließbewegung der Türflügel herbeigeführt werden. Dadurch kann ein relativ einfacher Aufbau eines solchen Mechanismus erreicht werden. Vorteilhaft bei diesen bekannten Lösungen ist auch, daß die Schiebetür in einer geschlossenen bzw. geöffneten Stellung selbsttätig verbleibt, ohne daß es einer Verriegelung bedarf. In der US 1 820 941 A wird weiters ein abgeschrägter Anschlag beschrieben, der dazu dient, am Beginn der Öffnungsbewegung den Türflügeln einen anfänglichen Impuls zu verleihen, um die Öffnungsbewegung auch dann sicher einleiten zu können, wenn sich die Türflügel nach längerem Stillstand in einem gewissen Ausmaß festgesetzt haben.From US 1 599 328 A and US 1 820 941 A sliding doors are known, in which the Door leaves are mounted on running rails, the inclination of which is adjustable. Through this inclination adjustment the opening or closing movement of the door leaves can be brought about. A relatively simple structure of such a mechanism can thereby be achieved. Another advantage of these known solutions is that the sliding door is closed or open position remains automatically without the need for a lock. In the US 1 820 941 A also describes a beveled stop, which is used on Start of the opening movement to give the door leaves an initial impulse to to be able to initiate the opening movement safely even if the door leaf follows prolonged standstill to a certain extent.

Nachteilig bei den bekannten Lösungen ist jedoch, daß die Türflügel am Ende der Öffnungs- bzw. Schließbewegung hart an Anschlägen anprallen, was eine erhebliche mechanische Belastung für die verschiedenen Bauteile darstellt und vom Anwender als störend empfunden wird. Ein weiterer Nachteil der oben beschriebenen Lösung besteht darin, daß durch den abgeschrägten Anschlag zwar der Beginn der Öffnungsbewegung erleichtert werden kann, eine ähnliche Maßnahme für den Beginn der Schließbewegung jedoch auf diese Weise nicht durchführbar ist. Wenn daher die Türflügel nach längerem Gebrauch oder infolge von Abnützung nicht mehr leichtgängig auf den Führungsschienen rollen, besteht die Gefahr, daß die Schließbewegung nicht mehr ohne weiteres durchgeführt werden kann.A disadvantage of the known solutions, however, is that the door leaves at the end of the opening or closing movement impact hard on stops, which is a considerable mechanical load for the various components and perceived by the user as annoying becomes. Another disadvantage of the solution described above is that due to the beveled Although the start of the opening movement can be made easier, a stop similar measure for the start of the closing movement, however, cannot be carried out in this way is. Therefore, if the door leaves after extended use or as a result of wear and tear no longer roll smoothly on the guide rails, there is a risk that the closing movement can no longer be carried out easily.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Schiebetür der oben beschriebenen Art so weiterzubilden, daß bei einfacher und robuster Bauweise ein leichtes Öffnen und Schließen mit geringstmöglichem Aufwand erreicht werden kann. Insbesonders soll eine sanfte Bewegung der Türflügel gewährleistet werden, und es soll sichergestellt werden, daß auch bei schwergängig gewordenen Türflügeln sowohl die Öffnungs- als auch die Schließbewegung zuverlässig eingeleitet wird.The object of the present invention is to provide a sliding door of the type described above to further develop that with a simple and robust design, easy opening and closing can be achieved with the least possible effort. In particular, a gentle movement the door wing can be guaranteed, and it should be ensured that also at door leaves that have become stiff both the opening and the closing movement is reliably initiated.

Erfindungsgemäß werden diese Aufgaben durch eine Schiebetür gelöst, die die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils von Patentanspruch 1 aufweist. Die erfindungsgemäße Schiebetür ist in ihrem Aufbau äußerst einfach und auch für schwierige Anwendungsfälle einsetzbar. Auch im Betrieb ist die erfindungsgemäße Lösung robust, beispielsweise gegenüber Fremdkörpern in der Türlaufrichtung, die bei bekannten Schiebetüren eine Funktionsstörung verursachen können. Weiters ermöglicht die erfindungsgemäße Lösung eine besonders einfache Umrüstung bestehender Schiebetüren auf einen automatischen Betrieb.According to the invention, these tasks are solved by a sliding door, which has the features of characterizing part of claim 1. The sliding door according to the invention is its structure is extremely simple and can also be used for difficult applications. Also the solution according to the invention is robust in operation, for example against foreign bodies in the direction of door movement, which cause a malfunction in known sliding doors can. Furthermore, the solution according to the invention enables a particularly simple conversion existing sliding doors for automatic operation.

Wesentlich an der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, daß die eigentliche Bewegung des Türflügels sowohl in der Öffnungs- als auch in der Schließrichtung durch Schwerkraft erfolgt. Die Bewegung des Türflügels wird durch einfache Anschläge begrenzt, so daß keine aufwendige Steuerung des Stelltriebs erforderlich ist. Der Stelltrieb kann in einfacher Weise als Handhebel, als hydraulischer Schwenkzylinder, als Elektromotor od. dgl. ausgebildet sein. Die feder-bzw. gewichtsbelasteten Anschläge erfüllen bei der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung eine doppelte Aufgabe. Einerseits wird die Öffnungs- bzw. Schließbewegung an ihrem Ende sanft abgebremst, wodurch die mechanische Belastung aller Bauteile verringert wird, und ein für den Anwender angenehmes Betätigungsverhalten erreicht wird. Andererseits wird sowohl am Anfang der Öffnungsbewegung als auch am Anfang der Schließbewegung den Türflügeln ein anfänglicher Impuls erteilt, um so zu gewährleisten, daß die entsprechende Bewegung zuverlässig ausgeführt wird.It is essential to the present invention that the actual movement of the door leaf both in the opening and in the closing direction by gravity. The movement the door leaf is limited by simple stops, so that no complex Control of the actuator is required. The actuator can easily be used as a hand lever, be designed as a hydraulic swivel cylinder, as an electric motor or the like. The feather or Weight-loaded stops fulfill a double in the solution according to the invention Task. On the one hand, the opening and closing movement is gently braked at its end, which reduces the mechanical load on all components, and one for the User pleasant operating behavior is achieved. On the other hand, both at the beginning the opening movement as well as at the beginning of the closing movement initial impulse given so as to ensure that the corresponding movement is reliable is performed.

Ein zusätzlicher Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, daß eine besonders schnelle Öffnungs- und Schließbewegung erreicht werden kann.An additional advantage of the invention is that a particularly quick opening and closing movement can be achieved.

Naturgemäß ändert sich bei einer erfindungsgemäßen Schiebetür die Höhe des Türflügels während einer Öffnungs- oder Schließbewegung in Abhängigkeit von der Kinematik der Laufeinrichtung. Dieser Effekt kann in vorteilhafter Weise z. B. dazu benützt werden, daß der Türflügel in der geschlossenen Stellung am Boden aufliegt, um eine Abdichtung zu gewährleisten, jedoch während der Öffnungs- bzw. Schließbewegung vom Boden abgehoben ist, um die Reibung soweit als möglich zu verringern und damit einer Beschädigung der bodenseitigen Dichtung vorzubeugen.The height of the door leaf naturally changes in a sliding door according to the invention during an opening or closing movement depending on the kinematics of the Running device. This effect can advantageously z. B. can be used so that the Door leaf rests on the floor in the closed position to ensure a seal however, is lifted off the floor during the opening or closing movement reduce the friction as much as possible and thus damage the bottom side Prevent gasket.

In einer besonders begünstigten Ausführungsvariante besitzt die Laufeinrichtung eine Laufschiene. Die Laufschiene selbst kann, je nach dem gewünschten Geschwindigkeitsverlauf der Öffnungs- bzw. Schließbewegung der Schiebetür, geradlinig oder schwach gekrümmt sein. Eine konkav gekrümmte Laufschiene ermöglicht beispielsweise eine schnellere Beschleunigung des Türflügels am Anfang der Öffnungs- oder Schließbewegung. Alternativ zu einer Laufschiene kann auch ein Seil vorgesehen sein, auf dem die Türflügel geführt sind. Das Seil kann zwischen zwei Schenkeln gespannt sein, die starr an einem sich über den Laufweg der Rollbeschläge erstreckenden Bügel angebracht sind. Zur Bewegung des Türflügels wird der Bügel, und damit das fest daran angebrachte Seil, in seiner Neigung verstellt, wodurch die Bewegung des Türflügels hervorgerufen wird. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, das Seil an einem Ende gebäudefest einzuspannen, und das andere Ende aufwärts bzw. abwärts zu bewegen.In a particularly advantageous embodiment variant, the running device has a running rail. The running track itself can, depending on the desired speed profile Opening or closing movement of the sliding door, be straight or slightly curved. A concave curved track, for example, enables faster acceleration of the door leaf at the beginning of the opening or closing movement. Alternatively to one A rail can also be provided on the running rail, on which the door leaves are guided. The rope can be stretched between two legs that are rigidly attached to one another over the path of the Roll fittings extending bracket are attached. To move the door leaf, the Bracket, and thus the rope firmly attached to it, is adjusted in its inclination, whereby the Movement of the door leaf is caused. However, it is also possible to attach the rope to one Clamp one end fixed to the building and move the other end up or down.

Gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 1 und 2 umfaßt eine Schiebetür 1 zwei gegengleich schiebeverstellbare Türflügel 2, die jeweils über Rollbeschläge 3 auf einer Laufschiene 4 schiebeverstellbar aufgehängt sind, welche Laufschiene 4 über einen Stelltrieb 5 um eine horizontale Querachse A schwenkverstellbar lagern und aus einer in Schließrichtung der Türflügel 2 abfallenden Schräglage (Fig. 1) in eine in Öffnungsrichtung der Türflügel 2 abfallende Schräglage (Fig. 2) verschwenkt werden können. Je nach Schräglage bewegen sich daher die Türflügel 2 schwerkraftbedingt selbsttätig aus der Schließstellung in die Offenstellung und umgekehrt von der Offenstellung in die Schließstellung.According to the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 2, a sliding door 1 comprises two oppositely sliding door leaves 2, each with roller fittings 3 on a track 4 are slidably suspended, which track 4 via an actuator 5 to a horizontal transverse axis A pivotally mounted and from a in the closing direction Door leaf 2 sloping (Fig. 1) in a sloping in the opening direction of the door leaf 2 Oblique position (Fig. 2) can be pivoted. Depending on the inclination, move therefore the door leaf 2 automatically due to gravity from the closed position to the open position and vice versa from the open position to the closed position.

In den Schließ- bzw. Offenstellungen gibt es für die Türflügel 2 feder- oder gewichtsbelastete Anschläge 6, 7, die den Aufprall der Türflügel 2 dämpfen und eine Anfahrhilfe für die Gegenbewegung der Türflügel 2 bieten. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Anschläge 6, 7 als Schwenkhebel ausgebildet, die gegen ihre Gewichts- oder Federbelastung von den Türflügeln 2 bei Erreichen der Schließ- bzw. Offenstellung um ihre Schwenkachse C hochgedrückt werden und dann nach einem Umschwenken der Laufschienen das Zurückgleiten der Türflügel 2 durch ihr Zurückdrehen unterstützen.In the closed or open positions there are 2 spring or weight-loaded doors Stops 6, 7, which dampen the impact of the door leaves 2 and a starting aid for the counter movement the door leaf 2 offer. In the illustrated embodiment, the stops 6, 7 formed as a pivot lever, which against their weight or spring load from the Door leaves 2 pushed up about their pivot axis C when the closed or open position is reached be and then after sliding the rails back sliding Support door leaf 2 by turning it back.

Als Stelltrieb 5 ist ein Stellzylinder 8 eingesetzt, der über einen Mitnehmer 9 an Stellhebeln 10 der Laufschienen 4 angreift und damit zu einem gemeinsamen Schwenkverstellen beider Laufschienen führt.An actuating cylinder 8 is used as the actuating drive 5 and has actuators 9 on actuating levers 10 of the rails 4 attacks and thus to a common swivel adjustment of both Guides rails.

Um auf einfache Weise stets eine lotrechte Lage der Türflügel 2 sicherzustellen, weisen die Rollbeschläge 3 einen entlang der Laufschienen 4 verfahrbaren Schlitten 11 auf, an dem die Türflügel 2 oberhalb des Schwerpunktes um eine horizontale Querachse B pendelnd aufgehängt sind, wobei Seitenführungen 12 eine entsprechende Seitenstabilität der Türflügel 2 mit sich bringen.In order to always ensure a vertical position of the door leaves 2 in a simple manner, the Roll fittings 3 on a movable along the rails 4 carriage 11 on which the Door wing 2 suspended above the center of gravity about a horizontal transverse axis B. are, side guides 12 with a corresponding lateral stability of the door leaf 2 bring oneself.

Gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 3 und 4 umfaßt die Schiebetür 101 nur einen Türflügel 102, der über Rollbeschläge 103 auf einer Laufschiene 104 schiebeverstellbar aufgehängt ist, welche Laufschiene 104 über einen Stelltrieb 105 um eine horizontale Querachse D schwenkverstellbar lagert und aus einer in Schließrichtung des Türflügels 102 abfallenden Schräglage (Fig. 3) in eine in Öffnungsrichtung des Türflügels 102 abfallende Schräglage (Fig. 4) verschwenkt werden kann. Die Funktion und die verschiedenen Ausstattungsmöglichkeiten dieser Schiebetür 101 entsprechen im wesentlichen dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 1 und 2, so daß hierauf nicht mehr näher eingegangen wird. Die Querachse D liegt außerhalb der Längsmitte der Laufschiene 104 und im der Querachse D entfernteren Endbereich der Laufschiene 104 ist der Stelltrieb 105 angeordnet, der aus einem Stellzylinder 108 und einem um eine zur Querachse D parallele Schwenkachse E verschwenkbar abgestützten Stellhebel 107 besteht. Der Stellhebel 107 weist einerseits einen Mitnehmer 109, der mit einem Hebeansatz 110 der Laufschiene 104 zusammenwirkt, und andererseits einen Betätigungsanschlag 111, der mit einem Gegenanschlag 112 des Türflügels zusammenwirkt, auf, so daß bei einem Verschwenken des Stellhebels 107 aus der Schließstellung (Fig. 3) in die Offenstellung (Fig. 4) nicht nur der Mitnehmer 109 den Hebeansatz 110 untergreift und die Laufschiene 104 im Öffnungssinn verschwenkt, sondern auch der Betätigungsanschlag 111 am Gegenanschlag 112 anstößt und den Türflügel zur Beschleunigung der Öffnungsbewegung anschiebt. Durch die Außermittigkeit der Laufschienenlagerung erfolgt bei einem Entlasten des Stellzylinders 108 eine schwerkraftsbedingte selbsttätige Rückbewegung des Stelltriebes 105 und damit auch ein Schließen des Türflügels 102.According to the embodiment of FIGS. 3 and 4, the sliding door 101 comprises only one door leaf 102, which is slidably suspended on a running rail 104 via roller fittings 103 is which track 104 via an actuator 105 about a horizontal transverse axis D pivotally mounted and from a falling in the closing direction of the door leaf 102 Inclined position (FIG. 3) in an inclined position falling in the opening direction of the door leaf 102 (Fig. 4) can be pivoted. The function and the various equipment options this sliding door 101 essentially corresponds to the exemplary embodiment 1 and 2, so that this will not be discussed in more detail. The transverse axis D is outside the longitudinal center of the running rail 104 and in the end region more distant to the transverse axis D Running rail 104, the actuator 105 is arranged, which consists of an actuator cylinder 108 and about an adjusting lever pivotally supported to the transverse axis D parallel pivot axis E. 107 exists. The adjusting lever 107 has a driver 109 on the one hand, which with a lifting attachment 110 of the track 104 cooperates, and on the other hand an actuating stop 111, which cooperates with a counter-stop 112 of the door leaf, so that at one Swiveling the actuating lever 107 from the closed position (FIG. 3) into the open position (FIG. 4) not only the driver 109 engages under the lifting attachment 110 and the running rail 104 pivoted in the opening direction, but also the actuating stop 111 on the counter-stop 112 pushes and pushes the door leaf to accelerate the opening movement. By The eccentricity of the running track bearing takes place when the actuating cylinder is relieved 108 an automatic return movement of the actuator 105 caused by gravity and thus also closing the door leaf 102.

Bei den in der Folge beschriebenen Ausführungsvarianten, die in den Fig. 5 bis 7 dargestellt sind, werden unterschiedliche Varianten der Aufhängung der Türflügel gezeigt. Zum Zweck der Vereinfachung der Darstellung sind die Anschläge und deren Betätigungsmechanismen weggelassen. Es ist jedoch für den Fachmann offensichtlich, daß die in den Fig. 1 bis 4 beschriebenen Anschläge auch bei diesen Ausführungsvarianten in entsprechender Weise einzusetzen sind.In the embodiment variants described below, which are shown in FIGS. 5 to 7 different variants of the door wing suspension are shown. For the purpose To simplify the illustration, the stops and their actuation mechanisms omitted. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that those described in Figs. 1-4 Use stops in a corresponding manner also in these design variants are.

Die Ausführungsvariante der Fig. 5 unterscheidet sich von den obigen beiden Ausführungsvarianten dadurch, daß ein Bügel 220 vorgesehen ist, der um eine Achse D schwenkbar angeordnet ist.

Ein Stellzylinder 208 eines Stelltriebs 205 bewirkt die Schwenkbewegung des Bügels 220 über einen Mitnehmer 224. Weiters ist bei dieser Ausführungsvariante der Türflügel 202 fest mit den beiden Laufeinrichtungen 203 verbunden, so daß mit der Verschwenkung des Bügels 220 entlang der Pfeile 225 auch eine gewisse Verschwenkung des Türflügels 202 verbunden ist.The embodiment variant of FIG. 5 differs from the above two embodiment variants in that a bracket 220 is provided which is arranged pivotably about an axis D. is. At the ends of the bracket 220 legs 221 and 222 are attached, between which a rope 223 is tensioned. The roller fittings 203 of the door leaf 202 are on the Supported rope 223. An actuating cylinder 208 of an actuator 205 effects the pivoting movement of the bracket 220 via a driver 224. Furthermore, this embodiment variant the door leaf 202 firmly connected to the two running devices 203, so that with the Pivoting the bracket 220 along the arrows 225 also a certain pivoting of the Door wing 202 is connected.

Bei der Ausführungsvariante von Fig. 6 ist eine Laufschiene 304 vorgesehen, die entgegengesetzt zu den oben beschriebenen Ausführungsvarianten keine feste Schwenkachse aufweist. Die Schwenkbewegung wird dadurch hervorgerufen, daß zwei Stellzylinder 308a, 308b an den Enden der Laufschiene 304 gegengleich betrieben werden. Die Laufschiene 304 besitzt an ihren Enden konkave Abschnitte 330, wodurch einerseits ein schnellerer Bewegungsbeginn des Türflügels 302 bei der Öffnungs- bzw. Schließbewegung erreichbar ist und andererseits eine gewisse Abbremsung des Türflügels 302 vor dem Erreichen der Anschläge 306, 307 erzielt wird. Wie bei den Ausführungsvarianten der Fig. 1 bis 4, ist der Türflügel 302 am Rollbeschlag 303 schwenkbar aufgehängt.In the embodiment variant of FIG. 6, a running rail 304 is provided which is opposite does not have a fixed pivot axis for the design variants described above. The pivoting movement is caused by two actuating cylinders 308a, 308b the ends of the running rail 304 are operated in opposite directions. The running rail 304 has Their ends have concave sections 330, which on the one hand enables a faster start of movement of the door leaf 302 is accessible during the opening or closing movement and on the other hand achieved a certain braking of the door leaf 302 before reaching the stops 306, 307 becomes.
