Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sealing device for sealing windows, doors or the like, with a sealing profile and a mechanism for displacing the sealing profile upon actuation of the mechanism, wherein the mechanism comprises a retaining strip and a housing.
  • the mechanism comprises a retaining strip and a housing.
  • the mechanism may further comprise at least one trigger for actuating actuation of the mechanism slidably mounted or adapted for sliding the mechanism parallel to a longitudinal direction of the sealing profile, and at least one first bending spring, in particular a leaf spring or an elastically bendable Wire, has.
  • a first, displaceable end of the at least one first spiral spring is at least indirectly connected to the displaceably mounted trigger or the displaceable storage suitable and equipped trigger
  • a second end of the at least one first spiral spring is arranged immovably in the longitudinal direction of the seal or suitable for immovable attachment and furnished and the sealing profile is at least indirectly attached to the spiral spring.
  • Sealing devices of the aforementioned type are well known.
  • Such sealing devices typically include a housing which may, for example, be mounted in or at a lower end of a door panel to seal an air gap between the lower end of the door panel and a floor when the door is closed while the gap is in the open condition of the door is released, so that the door is free to pivot.
  • the housing is often made of an extruded profile, for. B. an aluminum profile.
  • a retaining strip is provided on which the sealing profile is attached.
  • the retaining strip is about the mechanism, including the Biegefeder, coupled to the housing. By triggering or releasing the mechanism, the retaining strip with the sealing profile attached thereto can be displaced to seal or release the air gap between the lower end of the door leaf.
  • the trigger and the first end of the first bending spring are slidably guided on the housing.
  • the second end of the first bending spring is firmly connected to the housing.
  • the first bending spring is compressed and deflected, whereby the retaining strip and attached thereto sealing profile are moved.
  • the retaining strip and thus the sealing profile are often mounted in a region of the first spiral spring, which experiences the largest deflection. Often this is a region of the first spiral spring, which lies in the middle between the first end and the second end of the first spiral spring.
  • the attachment point at which the retaining strip or the sealing profile are connected to the first bending spring is moved not only in the desired direction for closing or releasing the air gap at the lower end of the door leaf. Rather, the retaining strip and the sealing profile also experiences a movement in the longitudinal direction of the sealing profile, parallel to which the trigger is moved.
  • This longitudinal movement of the retaining strip and the sealing profile is also referred to as offset of the seal during actuation.
  • the offset can lead to the sealing profile, in particular on the trigger side, no longer sealing against a door frame when the door is closed. On the opposite side of the trigger, the offset can cause the retaining strip to hit the door frame and damage the retaining strip, the sealing profile and / or the door frame.
  • a sealing device which has a means for limiting the stroke, which is pivotally and slidably connected to the housing on the one hand and on the other hand pivotally connected to the retaining strip and on which a stop is formed, in the lowered state to limit the stroke of the sealing profile the retaining strip strikes.
  • a sealing device according to the invention may be designed so that the mechanism has a means for limiting movement of the sealing profile in the longitudinal direction when the mechanism is triggered.
  • the means for limiting movement of the sealing profile in its longitudinal direction upon release of the mechanism may be or include a rod, a wire, a chain, a rope, a band, or the like.
  • the limiting means may be made of any material, e.g. made of a metal or a plastic.
  • the means for limiting the movement of the sealing profile in the longitudinal direction when the mechanism is triggered can be loaded with tension and pressure or only with tension.
  • a seal assembly according to the invention may comprise a housing which can be attached to or in a door or window sash.
  • the mechanism and the sealing profile are then preferably arranged at least partially in the housing, at least in the non-triggered state of the mechanism.
  • the mechanism connects the housing and the sealing profile.
  • the first end of the at least one first bending spring may be slidably mounted on the housing.
  • the shutter may be slidably guided on or in the housing.
  • the second end the at least one first bending spring is preferably fixedly connected to the housing.
  • the sealing profile is preferably attached to a retaining strip, which is connected to the mechanism, in particular to the first bending spring.
  • the means for limiting the movement of the sealing profile in the longitudinal direction when the mechanism is triggered may have a first end connected at least indirectly to the second end of the at least one first bending spring. It is also possible that the first end of the means for limiting in a bearing, which is at least indirectly attached to the second end of the at least one first bending spring, is pivotally mounted. It is also conceivable that the first end of the means for limiting at any location is directly or pivotally connected directly or indirectly to the housing.
  • the means for limiting with a second end at least indirectly with the sealing profile or possibly with the retaining strip be firmly connected or in a bearing which is at least indirectly connected to the sealing profile or the retaining strip, to be pivotally mounted.
  • the second end of the preventing means may be connected to the retaining strip to which the sealing profile may be attached.
  • the means for limiting may have an unchangeable length between its first end and its second end.
  • the second end of the means for limiting which is at least indirectly connected to the sealing profile, performs a pivoting movement about the first upon actuation of the mechanism The End.
  • This pivoting movement limits displacement of the sealing profile in the longitudinal direction and / or reduces movement in the longitudinal direction.
  • the means for limiting may counteract the offset and may cause the sealing profile, in addition to the desired movement perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, performs a movement in the longitudinal direction, which is directed to the trigger that is directed against the movement of the trigger when lowering the sealing profile.
  • the movement of the sealing profile forced by the means for limiting provides a greater stroke for the same path traveled by the trigger than a comparable sealing device without means for limiting, as by the means for limiting the distance traveled by the trigger more in a path of the sealing strip perpendicular to Longitudinal direction of the sealing strip is implemented as in a conventional sealing device. It is therefore possible to achieve greater strokes with the same paths to be traveled by the triggers than in conventional sealing devices.
  • a length between the first end and the second end of the means for limiting is changeable, in particular during the operation of the mechanism is automatically changed.
  • this can be achieved that the sealing profile undergoes no offset in the lowered state relative to the raised state, neither towards the trigger nor in the opposite direction.
  • the means for limiting with the second end is at least indirectly slidably guided on the sealing profile or the first end of the means for limiting longitudinally slidably mounted, wherein a path, the first or the second end in the guides can travel is limited.
  • sealing devices require level adjustment on a non-level or uneven floor.
  • Such an adaptation can be achieved in which, with the door closed, the sealing profile is not horizontally aligned but follows the inclination of the floor against which it is pressed.
  • a non-horizontal alignment of the sealing profile is only desired when the sealing profile strikes the floor upon actuation of the sealing device.
  • the sealing profile In the raised state of the sealing profile, however, the sealing profile should be aligned horizontally.

  • the movements of the two first ends are thereby synchronized. Since the first bending spring and the second bending spring are preferably identical or nearly identical, the first and the second bending spring are deflected the same upon actuation of the mechanism. This leads to the same lowering of the sealing profile, which is at least indirectly connected to the first bending spring and the second bending spring.

Dabei ist ein erstes, verschiebbares Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder zumindest mittelbar mit dem verschiebbar gelagerten Auslöser oder dem zur verschiebbaren Lagerung geeigneten und eingerichteten Auslöser verbunden, ein zweites Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder ist in Längsrichtung der Dichtung unverschiebbar angeordnet oder zur unverschiebbaren Befestigung geeignet und eingerichtet und das Dichtungsprofil ist zumindest mittelbar an der Biegefeder befestigt.The mechanism may further comprise at least one trigger for actuating actuation of the mechanism slidably mounted or adapted for sliding the mechanism parallel to a longitudinal direction of the sealing profile, and at least one first bending spring, in particular a leaf spring or an elastically bendable Wire, has. In this case, a first, displaceable end of the at least one first spiral spring is at least indirectly connected to the displaceably mounted trigger or the displaceable storage suitable and equipped trigger, a second end of the at least one first spiral spring is arranged immovably in the longitudinal direction of the seal or suitable for immovable attachment and furnished and the sealing profile is at least indirectly attached to the spiral spring.

Dichtungsvorrichtungen der vorgenannten Art sind allgemein bekannt. Solche Dichtungsvorrichtungen weisen in der Regel ein Gehäuse auf, das zum Beispiel in oder an einem unteren Ende eines Türflügels befestigt werden kann, um bei geschlossener Tür einen Luftspalt zwischen dem unteren Ende des Türflügels und einem Fußboden abzudichten, während der Spalt im geöffneten Zustand der Tür freigegeben ist, so dass der Türflügel frei schwenkbar ist. Das Gehäuse ist häufig aus einem Strangpressprofil, z. B. einem Aluminiumprofil hergestellt. Bei bekannten Dichtungsvorrichtungen ist eine Halteleiste vorgesehen, an der das Dichtungsprofil angebracht ist. Die Halteleiste ist über den Mechanismus, u.a. über die Biegefeder, mit dem Gehäuse gekoppelt. Durch ein Auslösen oder Freigeben des Mechanismus kann die Halteleiste mit dem daran befestigten Dichtungsprofil verschoben werden, um den Luftspalt zwischen dem unteren Ende des Türflügels abzudichten oder freizugeben. Der Auslöser und das erste Ende der ersten Biegefeder sind verschiebbar an dem Gehäuse geführt. Das zweite Ende der ersten Biegefeder ist dagegen fest mit dem Gehäuse verbunden. Durch ein Auslösen des Mechanismus wird die erste Biegefeder komprimiert und ausgelenkt, wodurch die Halteleiste und das daran angebrachte Dichtungsprofil verschoben werden. Die Halteleiste und somit auch das Dichtungsprofil sind dabei häufig in einem Bereich der ersten Biegefeder angebracht, der die größte Auslenkung erfährt. Häufig handelt es sich dabei um einen Bereich der ersten Biegefeder, der in der Mitte zwischen dem ersten Ende und dem zweiten Ende der ersten Biegefeder liegt.Sealing devices of the aforementioned type are well known. Such sealing devices typically include a housing which may, for example, be mounted in or at a lower end of a door panel to seal an air gap between the lower end of the door panel and a floor when the door is closed while the gap is in the open condition of the door is released, so that the door is free to pivot. The housing is often made of an extruded profile, for. B. an aluminum profile. In known sealing devices, a retaining strip is provided on which the sealing profile is attached. The retaining strip is about the mechanism, including the Biegefeder, coupled to the housing. By triggering or releasing the mechanism, the retaining strip with the sealing profile attached thereto can be displaced to seal or release the air gap between the lower end of the door leaf. The trigger and the first end of the first bending spring are slidably guided on the housing. The second end of the first bending spring, however, is firmly connected to the housing. By triggering the mechanism, the first bending spring is compressed and deflected, whereby the retaining strip and attached thereto sealing profile are moved. The retaining strip and thus the sealing profile are often mounted in a region of the first spiral spring, which experiences the largest deflection. Often this is a region of the first spiral spring, which lies in the middle between the first end and the second end of the first spiral spring.

Der Anbringungspunkt, an dem die Halteleiste bzw. das Dichtungsprofil mit der ersten Biegefeder verbunden sind, wird nicht nur in der gewünschten Richtung zum Schließen oder Freigeben des Luftspalts am unteren Ende des Türflügels bewegt. Vielmehr erfährt die Halteleiste und das Dichtungsprofil auch eine Bewegung in die Längsrichtung des Dichtungsprofils, parallel zu der auch der Auslöser bewegt wird. Diese Längsbewegung der Halteleiste und des Dichtungsprofils wird auch als Versatz der Dichtung bei der Betätigung bezeichnet. Der Versatz kann dazu führen, dass das Dichtungsprofil insbesondere auslöserseitig nicht mehr gegenüber einem Türrahmen abdichtet, wenn die Tür geschlossen ist. Auf der dem Auslöser entgegengesetzten Seite kann der Versatz dazu führen, dass die Halteleiste an dem Türrahmen anschlägt und die Halteleiste, das Dichtungsprofil und/oder der Türrahmen beschädigt wird. Die Nachteile sind umso größer, je größer der Hub der Halteleiste und des daran befestigten Dichtungsprofils ist, da der Hub und der Versatz in der Regel in einem festen Verhältnis zueinander stehen. Bei Dichtungen mit großem Hub kommt hinzu, dass dafür in der Regel ein langer Weg des Auslösers notwendig ist. Der Auslöser steht daher im nicht ausgelösten Zustand der Dichtung sehr weit über den Türflügel heraus und trifft beim Schließen der Tür möglicherweise auf den Zargenspiegel, was zu einer Beschädigung der Zarge und/oder des Auslösers führen kann.The attachment point at which the retaining strip or the sealing profile are connected to the first bending spring is moved not only in the desired direction for closing or releasing the air gap at the lower end of the door leaf. Rather, the retaining strip and the sealing profile also experiences a movement in the longitudinal direction of the sealing profile, parallel to which the trigger is moved. This longitudinal movement of the retaining strip and the sealing profile is also referred to as offset of the seal during actuation. The offset can lead to the sealing profile, in particular on the trigger side, no longer sealing against a door frame when the door is closed. On the opposite side of the trigger, the offset can cause the retaining strip to hit the door frame and damage the retaining strip, the sealing profile and / or the door frame. The disadvantages are the greater, the greater the stroke of the retaining strip and the sealing profile attached thereto, since the hub and the Offset are usually in a fixed relationship to each other. For seals with a large stroke is added that usually a long way the trigger is necessary. The trigger is therefore in the untripped condition of the seal very far out of the door and hits when closing the door may on the frame mirror, which can lead to damage to the frame and / or the trigger.

Ein weiterer Nachteil von Dichtungen mit großem Hub ist, dass die in den Dichtungen verwendeten Mechanismen in der Regel keinen schmalen Aufbau der Dichtung ermöglichen. Dichtungen mit schmalem Aufbau sollten nicht dauerhaft mit einem großen Hub betätigt werden.Another disadvantage of large stroke seals is that the mechanisms used in the seals typically do not permit a narrow seal design. Narrow design gaskets should not be permanently operated with a large stroke.

Hier setzt die vorliegende Erfindung an.This is where the present invention begins.

Gemäß der Erfindung wird eine Dichtungsvorrichtung vorgeschlagen, die ein Mittel zur Hubbegrenzung aufweist, das einerseits schwenkbar und verschiebbar mit dem Gehäuse und andererseits schwenkbar mit der Halteleiste verbunden ist und an welchem ein Anschlag ausgebildet ist, der im abgesenkten Zustand zur Begrenzung des Hubs des Dichtungsprofils an der Halteleiste anschlägt.According to the invention, a sealing device is proposed which has a means for limiting the stroke, which is pivotally and slidably connected to the housing on the one hand and on the other hand pivotally connected to the retaining strip and on which a stop is formed, in the lowered state to limit the stroke of the sealing profile the retaining strip strikes.

Durch eine solche Hubbegrenzung kann ein großer Hub bei einer Dichtung mit einem schmalen Aufbau verhindert werden, auch wenn der Mechanismus einer derartigen Dichtung einen großen Hub ermöglicht.By such a stroke limiter, a large stroke can be prevented in a seal having a narrow structure, even if the mechanism of such a seal allows a large stroke.

Für Dichtungen mit großem Hub müssen stattdessen Dichtungen mit einem breiteren Aufbau verwendet werden. Soll die Dichtung in einer Nut an einem unteren Ende eines Türflügels untergebracht sein, müssen daher breite Nuten in den Türflügeln vorgesehen sein, was eine Schwächung des Türflügels darstellt, die die Belastbarkeit des unteren Endes des Türflügels gegen Krafteinwirkung herabsetzt.For large stroke seals, gaskets with a wider structure must be used instead. If the seal is to be accommodated in a groove at a lower end of a door leaf, therefore, wide grooves must be provided in the door wings, which represents a weakening of the door leaf, which reduces the load capacity of the lower end of the door panel against force.

Durch eine Weiterbildung einer erfindungsgemäßen Dichtungsvorrichtung kann erreicht werden, dass der Versatz der Dichtung möglichst verhindert wird und ein weites Auskragen des Auslösers bei großem Hub des Dichtungsprofils vermieden wird. Außerdem soll die Dichtungsvorrichtung einen möglichst schmalen Mechanismus aufweisen. Dazu kann eine erfindungsgemäße Dichtungsvorrichtung so gestaltet sein, dass der Mechanismus ein Mittel zum Begrenzen einer Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils in die Längsrichtung beim Auslösen des Mechanismus aufweist. Das Mittel zum Begrenzen einer Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils in seine Längsrichtung beim Auslösen des Mechanismus, kann eine Stange, ein Draht, eine Kette, ein Seil, ein Band oder dergleichen sein oder umfassen. Das Mittel zum Begrenzen kann aus einem beliebigen Material hergestellt sein, z.B. aus einem Metall oder einem Kunststoff. Das Mittel zum Begrenzen der Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils in der Längsrichtung beim Auslösen des Mechanismus kann auf Zug und Druck oder nur auf Zug belastbar sein.A development of a sealing device according to the invention can be achieved that the offset of the seal is prevented as possible and a wide projection of the trigger is avoided with a large stroke of the sealing profile. In addition, the sealing device should have the smallest possible mechanism. For this purpose, a sealing device according to the invention may be designed so that the mechanism has a means for limiting movement of the sealing profile in the longitudinal direction when the mechanism is triggered. The means for limiting movement of the sealing profile in its longitudinal direction upon release of the mechanism may be or include a rod, a wire, a chain, a rope, a band, or the like. The limiting means may be made of any material, e.g. made of a metal or a plastic. The means for limiting the movement of the sealing profile in the longitudinal direction when the mechanism is triggered can be loaded with tension and pressure or only with tension.

Eine erfindungsgemäße Dichtungsanordnung kann ein Gehäuse aufweisen, das an oder in einem Tür- oder Fensterflügel angebracht werden kann. Der Mechanismus und das Dichtungsprofil sind dann vorzugsweise zumindest im nicht ausgelösten Zustand des Mechanismus zumindest zum Teil in dem Gehäuse angeordnet. Der Mechanismus verbindet das Gehäuse und das Dichtungsprofil. Das erste Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder kann verschiebbar an dem Gehäuse angebracht sein. Auch der Auslöser kann verschiebbar an oder in dem Gehäuse geführt sein. Das zweite Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder ist vorzugsweise fest mit dem Gehäuse verbunden.A seal assembly according to the invention may comprise a housing which can be attached to or in a door or window sash. The mechanism and the sealing profile are then preferably arranged at least partially in the housing, at least in the non-triggered state of the mechanism. The mechanism connects the housing and the sealing profile. The first end of the at least one first bending spring may be slidably mounted on the housing. Also, the shutter may be slidably guided on or in the housing. The second end the at least one first bending spring is preferably fixedly connected to the housing.

Das Dichtungsprofil ist vorzugsweise an einer Halteleiste angebracht, die mit dem Mechanismus, insbesondere mit der ersten Biegefeder verbunden ist.The sealing profile is preferably attached to a retaining strip, which is connected to the mechanism, in particular to the first bending spring.

Gemäß der Erfindung kann das Mittel zum Begrenzen der Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils in die Längsrichtung beim Auslösen des Mechanismus mit einem ersten Ende zumindest mittelbar mit dem zweiten Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder fest verbunden sein. Es ist ebenso möglich, dass das erste Ende des Mittels zum Begrenzen in einem Lager, das zumindest mittelbar an dem zweiten Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder angebracht ist, schwenkbar gelagert ist. Ebenso ist denkbar, dass das erste Ende des Mittels zum Begrenzen an einem beliebigen Ort mittelbar oder unmittelbar mit dem Gehäuse fest oder schwenkbar verbunden ist.According to the invention, the means for limiting the movement of the sealing profile in the longitudinal direction when the mechanism is triggered may have a first end connected at least indirectly to the second end of the at least one first bending spring. It is also possible that the first end of the means for limiting in a bearing, which is at least indirectly attached to the second end of the at least one first bending spring, is pivotally mounted. It is also conceivable that the first end of the means for limiting at any location is directly or pivotally connected directly or indirectly to the housing.

Gemäß der Erfindung kann das Mittel zum Begrenzen mit einem zweiten Ende zumindest mittelbar mit dem Dichtungsprofil oder ggf. mit der Halteleiste fest verbunden sein oder in einem Lager, das zumindest mittelbar mit dem Dichtungsprofil oder der Halteleiste verbunden ist, schwenkbar gelagert sein. So kann beispielsweise das zweite Ende des Mittels zum Verhindern mit der Halteleiste verbunden sein, an welcher das Dichtungsprofil angebracht sein kann.According to the invention, the means for limiting with a second end at least indirectly with the sealing profile or possibly with the retaining strip be firmly connected or in a bearing which is at least indirectly connected to the sealing profile or the retaining strip, to be pivotally mounted. For example, the second end of the preventing means may be connected to the retaining strip to which the sealing profile may be attached.

Das Mittel zum Begrenzen kann zwischen seinem ersten Ende und seinem zweiten Ende eine unveränderbare Länge haben.The means for limiting may have an unchangeable length between its first end and its second end.

Das zweite Ende des Mittels zum Begrenzen, welches zumindest mittelbar mit dem Dichtungsprofil verbunden ist, vollzieht bei einer Betätigung des Mechanismus eine Schwenkbewegung um das erste Ende. Diese Schwenkbewegung begrenzt ein Verschieben des Dichtungsprofils in die Längsrichtung und/oder vermindert eine Bewegung in die Längsrichtung. Das Mittel zum Begrenzen kann dem Versatz entgegen wirken und kann bewirken, dass das Dichtungsprofil neben der gewünschten Bewegung senkrecht zur Längsrichtung eine Bewegung in der Längsrichtung vollzieht, die auf den Auslöser gerichtet ist d.h. der Bewegung des Auslösers beim Absenken des Dichtungsprofils entgegen gerichtet ist. Die durch das Mittel zum Begrenzen erzwungene Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils sorgt bei gleichem, vom Auslöser zurückgelegten Weg für einen größeren Hub als eine vergleichbare Dichtungsvorrichtung ohne Mittel zum Begrenzen, da durch das Mittel zum Begrenzen der vom Auslöser zurückgelegte Weg mehr in einen Weg der Dichtungsleiste senkrecht zur Längsrichtung der Dichtungsleiste umgesetzt wird als bei einer herkömmlichen Dichtungsvorrichtung. Es ist daher möglich bei gleichen von den Auslösern zurückzulegenden Wegen größere Hübe zu erreichen als bei herkömmlichen Dichtungsvorrichtungen.The second end of the means for limiting, which is at least indirectly connected to the sealing profile, performs a pivoting movement about the first upon actuation of the mechanism The End. This pivoting movement limits displacement of the sealing profile in the longitudinal direction and / or reduces movement in the longitudinal direction. The means for limiting may counteract the offset and may cause the sealing profile, in addition to the desired movement perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, performs a movement in the longitudinal direction, which is directed to the trigger that is directed against the movement of the trigger when lowering the sealing profile. The movement of the sealing profile forced by the means for limiting provides a greater stroke for the same path traveled by the trigger than a comparable sealing device without means for limiting, as by the means for limiting the distance traveled by the trigger more in a path of the sealing strip perpendicular to Longitudinal direction of the sealing strip is implemented as in a conventional sealing device. It is therefore possible to achieve greater strokes with the same paths to be traveled by the triggers than in conventional sealing devices.

Denkbar ist allerdings auch, dass eine Länge zwischen dem ersten Ende und dem zweiten Ende des Mittels zum Begrenzen änderbar ist, insbesondere während der Betätigung des Mechanismus selbsttätig änderbar ist. Insbesondere dadurch kann erreicht werden, dass das Dichtungsprofil in dem abgesenkten Zustand gegenüber dem angehobenen Zustand keinen Versatz erfährt, weder in Richtung zum Auslöser noch in die entgegengesetzte Richtung. Dem gleichen Zweck kann es dienen, wenn das Mittel zum Begrenzen mit dem zweiten Ende zumindest mittelbar an dem Dichtungsprofil verschiebbar geführt ist oder aber das erste Ende des Mittels zum Begrenzen in der Längsrichtung verschiebbar geführt angebracht ist, wobei ein Weg, den das erste bzw. das zweite Ende in den Führungen zurücklegen kann, begrenzt ist.However, it is also conceivable that a length between the first end and the second end of the means for limiting is changeable, in particular during the operation of the mechanism is automatically changed. In particular, this can be achieved that the sealing profile undergoes no offset in the lowered state relative to the raised state, neither towards the trigger nor in the opposite direction. It may serve the same purpose if the means for limiting with the second end is at least indirectly slidably guided on the sealing profile or the first end of the means for limiting longitudinally slidably mounted, wherein a path, the first or the second end in the guides can travel is limited.

Ein Problem bei der Abdichtung von Luftspalten insbesondere zwischen dem Fußboden und Türflügeln ist, dass Dichtungsvorrichtungen eine Niveauanpassung bei einem nicht waagerechten oder unebenen Fußboden benötigen. Eine derartige Anpassung kann erreicht werden, in dem bei geschlossener Tür das Dichtungsprofil nicht waagerecht ausgerichtet ist sondern der Neigung des Fußbodens folgt, gegen den es gedrückt wird. Allerdings wird eine solche nicht waagerechte Ausrichtung des Dichtungsprofils erst dann gewünscht, wenn das Dichtungsprofil bei der Betätigung der Dichtungsvorrichtung auf den Fußboden trifft. Im angehobenen Zustand des Dichtungsprofils soll dagegen das Dichtungsprofil waagerecht ausgerichtet sein. Eine waagerechte Ausrichtung des Dichtungsprofils im angehobenen Zustand kann allerdings insbesondere bei sehr langen Dichtungen für sehr breite Türen oder Fenster schwierig zu realisieren sein.One problem with sealing air gaps, especially between the floor and door wings, is that sealing devices require level adjustment on a non-level or uneven floor. Such an adaptation can be achieved in which, with the door closed, the sealing profile is not horizontally aligned but follows the inclination of the floor against which it is pressed. However, such a non-horizontal alignment of the sealing profile is only desired when the sealing profile strikes the floor upon actuation of the sealing device. In the raised state of the sealing profile, however, the sealing profile should be aligned horizontally. However, a horizontal alignment of the sealing profile in the raised state can be difficult to realize, especially for very long seals for very wide doors or windows.

Es wird daher eine Dichtungsvorrichtung vorgeschlagen, bei der eine waagerechte Ausrichtung des Dichtungsprofils bis zu dem Moment, in dem das Dichtungsprofil beim Auslösen des Mechanismus am Fußboden oder dergleichen anschlägt, erhalten bleibt.It is therefore proposed a sealing device in which a horizontal alignment of the sealing profile is maintained up to the moment in which the sealing profile abuts when the mechanism is triggered on the floor or the like.

Das wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass eine eingangs genannte Dichtungsvorrichtung oder eine vorgenannte erfindungsgemäße Dichtungsvorrichtung wenigstens eine zweite Biegefeder und ein Kopplungsmittel aufweist. Das Kopplungsmittel weist ein erstes Ende auf, das zumindest mittelbar mit dem Auslöser verbunden ist. Das erfindungsgemäße vorgesehene Kopplungsmittel erstreckt sich entlang der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder und ragt über das zweite Ende dieser ersten Biegefeder in der Längsrichtung hinaus. Ein zweites Ende des verschiebbar gelagerten Kopplungsmittels ist zumindest mittelbar mit einem ersten, verschiebbaren Ende der wenigstens einen zweiten Biegefeder verbunden. Ein zweites Ende der wenigstens einen zweiten Biegefeder ist unverschiebbar angebracht, vorzugsweise an dem Gehäuse der Dichtungsvorrichtung oder zur unverschiebbaren Befestigung geeignet und eingerichtet.This is inventively achieved in that an initially mentioned sealing device or an aforementioned sealing device according to the invention comprises at least one second spiral spring and a coupling means. The coupling means has a first end which is at least indirectly connected to the trigger. The provided coupling means according to the invention extends along the at least one first bending spring and projects beyond the second end of this first bending spring in the longitudinal direction. A second end of the displaceably mounted coupling means is at least indirectly with a first, displaceable end of the at least one second bending spring connected. A second end of the at least one second bending spring is mounted immovably, preferably on the housing of the sealing device or suitable for immovable attachment and set up.

Über das erfindungsgemäße vorgesehene Kopplungsmittel ist das erste Ende der ersten Biegefeder und das erste Ende der zweiten Biegefeder miteinander gekoppelt, so dass die Bewegung des ersten Endes der ersten Biegefeder von dem ersten Ende der zweiten Biegefeder nachvollzogen wird. Die Bewegungen der beiden ersten Enden sind dadurch synchronisiert. Da die erste Biegefeder und die zweite Biegefeder vorzugsweise identisch oder nahezu identisch ausgebildet sind, werden die erste und die zweite Biegefeder bei einer Betätigung des Mechanismus gleich ausgelenkt. Dieses führt zu einer gleichen Absenkung des Dichtungsprofils, das zumindest mittelbar mit der ersten Biegefeder und der zweiten Biegefeder verbunden ist.About the inventively provided coupling means, the first end of the first bending spring and the first end of the second bending spring is coupled together so that the movement of the first end of the first bending spring is followed by the first end of the second bending spring. The movements of the two first ends are thereby synchronized. Since the first bending spring and the second bending spring are preferably identical or nearly identical, the first and the second bending spring are deflected the same upon actuation of the mechanism. This leads to the same lowering of the sealing profile, which is at least indirectly connected to the first bending spring and the second bending spring.

Neben der wenigstens einen ersten und der wenigstens einen zweiten Biegefeder kann eine erfindungsgemäße Dichtungsvorrichtung auch beliebig viele weitere, zum Beispiel dritte oder vierte Biegefedern aufweisen, die erste Enden haben, die über weitere Kopplungsmittel mit dem ersten Ende einer in Richtung zum Auslöser angeordneten Biegefeder verbunden sind. Zweite Enden der weiteren Biegefedern sind unverschiebbar angebracht, vorzugsweise an dem Gehäuse der Dichtungsvorrichtung, oder zur unverschiebbaren Befestigung geeignet und eingerichtet.In addition to the at least one first and the at least one second bending spring, a sealing device according to the invention can also have any number of further, for example third or fourth, bending springs which have first ends which are connected via further coupling means to the first end of a bending spring arranged in the direction of the trigger , Second ends of the further torsion springs are mounted immovably, preferably on the housing of the sealing device, or suitable for immovable attachment and set up.

Das erste Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder und ggf. der wenigstens einen zweiten Biegefeder oder ggf. der weiteren Biegefedern sind bei den erfindungsgemäßen Dichtungsvorrichtungen vorzugsweise jeweils an einem Verbindungselement angebracht. Der wenigstens eine Auslöser ist vorzugsweise zusammen mit dem ersten Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder an einem der Verbindungselemente angebracht. Gleiches gilt für das erste Ende eines der Kopplungsmittel. Die zweiten Enden der Kopplungsmittel sind vorzugsweise zusammen mit einem ersten Ende der wenigstens einen zweiten Biegefeder bzw. der weiteren Biegefedern an einem der Verbindungselemente angebracht.The first end of the at least one first spiral spring and possibly the at least one second spiral spring or possibly the further bending springs are preferably each mounted on a connecting element in the sealing devices according to the invention. Of the at least one trigger is preferably attached to one of the connecting elements together with the first end of the at least one first bending spring. The same applies to the first end of one of the coupling means. The second ends of the coupling means are preferably attached to one of the connecting elements together with a first end of the at least one second bending spring or the other bending springs.

Die Verbindungselemente einer erfindungsgemäßen Dichtungsvorrichtung sind vorzugsweise identisch ausgebildet.The connecting elements of a sealing device according to the invention are preferably identical.

Das zweite Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder und ggf. der wenigstens einen zweiten Biegefeder und ggf. der weiteren Biegefedern sind bei einer vorteilhaften Dichtungsvorrichtung jeweils in einem Befestigungselement festgelegt. Die Befestigungselemente können fest in einem Gehäuse der Dichtungsvorrichtung angebracht sein.The second end of the at least one first spiral spring and possibly the at least one second spiral spring and possibly the further bending springs are each fixed in an attachment element in an advantageous sealing device. The fasteners may be fixedly mounted in a housing of the sealing device.

Das oder die Kopplungsmittel kann bzw. können durch eine Ausnehmung des Befestigungselementes bzw. der Befestigungselemente geführt sein, an dem das zweite Ende der wenigstens einen ersten Biegefeder angebracht ist bzw. an denen die zweiten Enden der wenigstens einen zweiten oder weiteren Biegefedern angebracht sind.The one or more coupling means may be guided through a recess of the fastening element or the fastening elements, on which the second end of the at least one first bending spring is attached or on which the second ends of the at least one second or further bending springs are attached.

Die in den Figuren dargestellten Dichtungsvorrichtungen weisen eine Reihe von Merkmalen auf, die gleich sind oder funktionell gleich sind. Solche gleichen oder funktionell gleichen Merkmale sind in den Figuren mit gleichen Bezugszeichen gekennzeichnet. Die Merkmale der verschiedenen Dichtungsvorrichtungen und der dargestellten Varianten von Dichtungsvorrichtungen oder Teilen der Dichtungsvorrichtungen auch auf nicht explizit dargestellter Weise mit einander kombiniert werden.The sealing devices illustrated in the figures have a number of features that are the same or functionally the same. Such identical or functionally identical features are identified in the figures with the same reference numerals. The features of the various sealing devices and the illustrated variants of sealing devices or parts of the sealing devices are combined with each other in a manner not explicitly shown.

Anhand der Figuren 1a bis 6 wird zunächst die erste dargestellte Dichtungsvorrichtung erläutert.Based on FIGS. 1a to 6 First, the first illustrated sealing device will be explained.

Die Dichtungsvorrichtung weist ein Gehäuse 10 auf, dass aus einem Abschnitt eines Strangpressprofils aus Aluminium hergestellt ist. Das Gehäuse 10 hat ein im Wesentlichen U-förmigen Querschnitt mit einem Steg 101 und zwei parallelen Schenkeln 102. Es kann in einer Nut an einem unteren Ende eines Türflügels befestigt werden. Die Dichtungsvorrichtung weist ferner ein Dichtungsprofil 30 auf, welches an einer Halteleiste 20 angebracht ist. Das Dichtungsprofil 30 und die Halteleiste 20 können senkrecht zu der Längsrichtung des Dichtungsprofils 30 relativ zum Gehäuse 10 verschoben werden.The sealing device has a housing 10 which is made of a section of an extruded aluminum profile. The housing 10 has a substantially U-shaped cross section with a web 101 and two parallel legs 102. It can be mounted in a groove on a lower end of a door leaf. The sealing device further comprises a sealing profile 30, which is attached to a retaining strip 20. The sealing profile 30 and the retaining strip 20 can be displaced perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the sealing profile 30 relative to the housing 10.

Auf der Innenseite der parallelen Schenkel 102 des Gehäuses 10 sind mit Abstand zum Steg 101 weitere Stege 103 vorgesehen. Diese weiteren Stege 103 dienen der Befestigung eines Mechanismus umfassend einen Auslöser 40, ein erstes Verbindungsstück 50, eine erste Biegefeder 60, ein erstes Kopplungsmittel 70, ein erstes Befestigungselement 80, ein zweites Verbindungselement 90, eine zweite Biegefeder 100, ein zweites Befestigungselement 110 und ein Mittel 120 zum Begrenzen der Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils 30. Der Mechanismus dient der Verschiebung der Halteleiste 20 bzw. des daran befestigten Dichtungsprofils 30. Der Auslöser 40 kann relativ zu dem Gehäuse 10 verschoben werden und ragt seitlich über das Gehäuse 10 hinaus. Die Bewegung der Halteleiste 20 und des daran befestigten Dichtungsprofils 30 senkrecht zur Längsrichtung des Dichtungsprofils 30 kann durch einen Druck auf den Auslöser 40 ausgelöst werden. Durch den Druck auf den Auslöser 40 wird der Auslöser 40 in das Gehäuse 10 geschoben.On the inside of the parallel legs 102 of the housing 10 101 further webs 103 are provided at a distance from the web. These further webs 103 serve to attach a mechanism comprising a trigger 40, a first connector 50, a first bending spring 60, a first coupling means 70, a first fastening element 80, a second connecting element 90, a second bending spring 100, a second fastening element 110 and a Means 120 for limiting the movement of the sealing profile 30. The mechanism serves to displace the retaining strip 20 and the sealing profile 30 attached thereto. The trigger 40 can be displaced relative to the housing 10 and protrudes laterally beyond the housing 10. The movement of the retaining strip 20 and the attached sealing profile 30 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the sealing profile 30 can be triggered by a pressure on the trigger 40. By pressing the trigger 40, the trigger 40 is pushed into the housing 10.

Der Auslöser 40 ist an dem ersten Verbindungselement 50 befestigt. Das erste Verbindungselement 50 ist ein Kunststoffformteil, vorzugsweise durch Spritzguss hergestellt, dass eine Gewindebohrung 501 aufweist, in welcher ein Gewindeschaft 401 des Auslösers 40 eingeschraubt ist. Durch die Einschraubtiefe des Auslösers 40 in das erste Verbindungselement 50 kann ein seitlicher Überstand des Auslösers 40 über das Gehäuse 10 eingestellt werden. Das erste Verbindungselement 50 weist seitliche Flügel 502 auf, deren Höhe so bemessen ist, dass sie in eine Nut zwischen dem Steg 101 und den weiteren Stegen 103 verschiebbar angeordnet werden können.The trigger 40 is attached to the first connector 50. The first connecting element 50 is a plastic molded part, preferably produced by injection molding, that has a threaded bore 501, in which a threaded shank 401 of the trigger 40 is screwed. By the depth of engagement of the trigger 40 in the first connecting element 50, a lateral projection of the trigger 40 can be adjusted via the housing 10. The first connecting element 50 has lateral wings 502, the height of which is dimensioned such that they can be displaceably arranged in a groove between the web 101 and the further webs 103.

Der Auslöser 40 kann auf verschiedene Art und Weise gestaltet sein. Verschiedene Auslösergestaltungen sind in den Figuren 9a bis 11 b dargestellt.The trigger 40 can be designed in various ways. Different trigger designs are in the FIGS. 9a to 11 b shown.

Das erste Verbindungselement weist eine erste Ausnahme 503 auf, in welchem das Kopplungsmittel 70 form- und/oder kraftschlüssig befestigt werden kann. Eine zweite Aufnahme 504 des ersten Verbindungsmittels 50 dient der Befestigung eines ersten Endes 601 der ersten Biegefeder 60. Diese zweite Aufnahme 504 umfasst einen Dorn 505 auf den eine Öse am ersten Ende 601 der ersten Biegefeder 60 aufgesteckt ist. Ferner weist das erste Verbindungselement 50 eine dritte Aufnahme 506 auf, die allerdings nicht genutzt wird.The first connecting element has a first exception 503, in which the coupling means 70 can be fixed positively and / or non-positively. A second receptacle 504 of the first connecting means 50 serves to attach a first end 601 of the first bending spring 60. This second receptacle 504 comprises a mandrel 505 on the one eyelet at the first end 601 of the first bending spring 60 is plugged. Furthermore, the first connection element 50 has a third receptacle 506, which, however, is not used.

Das Kopplungsmittel 70 wird durch einen steifen Draht gebildet, dessen erstes Ende 701 in der ersten Aufnahme 503 des ersten Verbindungsmittels 50 eingesteckt ist und dessen zweites Ende 702 mit dem zweiten Verbindungselement 90 fest verbunden ist. Das zweite Verbindungselement 90 ist identisch zu dem ersten Verbindungselement 50 geformt. Es weist daher eine erste Aufnahme 903, eine zweite Aufnahme 904 und eine dritte Aufnahme 906 auf. Während die erste Aufnahme 903 im Fall des zweiten Verbindungselementes 90 ungenutzt bleibt, dient die zweite Aufnahme 904 der Befestigung eines ersten Endes 1001 der zweiten Biegefeder 100 und die dritte Aufnahme 906 der Aufnahme des zweiten Endes 702 des Kopplungsmittels 70, dass in der dritten Aufnahme 906 form- und/oder kraftschlüssig befestigt ist.The coupling means 70 is formed by a rigid wire whose first end 701 is inserted in the first receptacle 503 of the first connection means 50 and whose second end 702 is fixedly connected to the second connection element 90. The second connection element 90 is shaped identically to the first connection element 50. It therefore has a first receptacle 903, a second receptacle 904 and a third receptacle 906. While the first receptacle 903 remains unused in the case of the second connecting element 90, the second receptacle 904 serves to fasten a first end 1001 of the second bending spring 100 and the third receptacle 906 to receive the second end 702 of the coupling means 70 that in the third receptacle 906 is attached positively and / or non-positively.

Die erste Biegefeder 60 und die zweite Biegefeder 100 sind ebenfalls identisch ausgebildet. Neben den Ösen an den ersten Enden 601, 1001 weisen die Biegefedern 60, 100 an den zweiten Enden 602, 1002 ebenfalls Ösen auf. Zwischen den ersten Enden 601, 1001 und den zweiten Enden 602, 1002 sind die Biegefedern bogenförmig gebogen. Die Biegefedern 60, 100 sind ebenfalls aus einem Draht hergestellt.The first bending spring 60 and the second bending spring 100 are also formed identically. In addition to the eyelets at the first ends 601, 1001, the torsion springs 60, 100 at the second ends 602, 1002 also eyelets. Between the first ends 601, 1001 and the second ends 602, 1002, the bending springs are bent arcuately. The bending springs 60, 100 are also made of a wire.

Die zweiten Enden 602, 1002 der Biegefedern 60, 100 sind in dem ersten bzw. dem zweiten Befestigungselement 80, 110 befestigt. Die Befestigungselemente 80, 110 weisen dazu eine erste Aufnahme 801, 1101 auf. Diese Aufnahmen 801, 1101 umfassen jeweils einen Dorn 802, 1102, um den die Ösen an den zweiten Enden 602, 1002 der Biegefedern 60, 100 gelegt sind. Das erste Befestigungselement 80 und das zweite Befestigungselement 110 sind im Übrigen ebenfalls identisch ausgebildet. Es handelt sich um vorzugsweise durch Spritzgießen hergestellte Formteile aus Kunststoff. Das erste Befestigungselement 80 und das zweite Befestigungselement 110 haben Flügel 803, 1103 an deren Oberweite eine Riffelung vorgesehen ist. Die Höhe der Flügel 803,1103 kann geringfügig höher sein als der Abstand zwischen dem Steg 101 und den weiteren Stegen 103 an den Schenkeln 102 des Gehäuses. Durch Form- und/oder Kraftschluss sind die Befestigungselemente 80, 110 vorzugsweise zwischen dem Steg 101 und den weiteren Stegen 103 befestigt.The second ends 602, 1002 of the torsion springs 60, 100 are secured in the first and the second fastener 80, 110, respectively. The fastening elements 80, 110 have for this purpose a first receptacle 801, 1101. These receptacles 801, 1101 each comprise a mandrel 802, 1102, around which the eyelets at the second ends 602, 1002 of the torsion springs 60, 100 are placed. Incidentally, the first attachment member 80 and the second attachment member 110 are also the same identically formed. These are preferably made by injection molding plastic parts. The first fastening element 80 and the second fastening element 110 have wings 803, 1103 at the upper width of which corrugation is provided. The height of the wings 803,1103 may be slightly higher than the distance between the web 101 and the other webs 103 on the legs 102 of the housing. By form and / or adhesion, the fasteners 80, 110 are preferably attached between the web 101 and the other webs 103.

An den Befestigungselementen 80, 110 ist eine zweite Aufnahme 804, 1104 vorgesehen. Diese zweiten Aufnahmen 804, 1104 sind im Fall des zweiten Befestigungselementes 110 ungenutzt, während in der zweiten Aufnahme 804 des ersten Befestigungselementes 80 ein erstes Ende 1201 des Mittels 120 zum Begrenzen einer Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils 30 in seine Längsrichtung schwenkbar befestigt ist.On the fastening elements 80, 110, a second receptacle 804, 1104 is provided. These second receptacles 804, 1104 are unused in the case of the second fastening element 110, while in the second receptacle 804 of the first fastening element 80, a first end 1201 of the means 120 for limiting movement of the sealing profile 30 is pivotally mounted in its longitudinal direction.

Das Mittel 120 zum Begrenzen einer Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils 30 in seine Längsrichtung wird durch einen im Wesentlichen U-förmigen Drahtbügel gebildet. Ein zwei Schenkel des U-förmigen Drahtbügels verbindender Steg bildet das erste Ende 1201 des Mittels 120 während freie Enden der Schenkel an einem zweiten Ende 1202 des Mittels 120 vorgesehen sind.The means 120 for limiting movement of the sealing profile 30 in its longitudinal direction is formed by a substantially U-shaped wire bow. A web connecting two legs of the U-shaped wire bow forms the first end 1201 of the means 120, while free ends of the legs are provided at a second end 1202 of the means 120.

Ein mittlerer Bereich 603, 1003 der Biegefedern 60, 100 ist mit der Halteleiste 20 verbunden, was anhand der Figuren 12a und 12b näher erläutert wird. Die Halteleiste 20, die aus einem Strangpressprofil, insbesondere aus einem Aluminiumstrangpressprofil oder aus einem Kunststoffstrangpressprofil hergestellt sein kann, weist eine erste Aufnahme 201 auf, in welche die mittleren Bereiche 603, 1003 der Biegefedern 60, 100 eingelegt sind. Die Halteleiste 20 weist am Rand der Aufnahme 201 angebrachte Flügel 202 auf, die nachdem die mittleren Bereiche bei einem Zusammenbau der Dichtungsvorrichtung in die Aufnahme 201 eingelegt sind, nach innen gebogen werden, so dass sie den mittleren Bereich 603, 1003 der Biegefedern 60, 100 überdecken. Die mittleren Bereiche 603, 1003 der Biegefedern 60, 100 sind dadurch senkrecht zur Längsrichtung der Halteleiste 20 in der Aufnahme 201 gesichert. Eine Verschiebung der mittleren Bereiche 603, 1003 ist dagegen zumindest in einem geringem Umfang möglich.A central region 603, 1003 of the torsion springs 60, 100 is connected to the retaining strip 20, which is based on the Figures 12a and 12b is explained in more detail. The retaining strip 20, which may be made of an extruded profile, in particular of an aluminum extruded profile or of a plastic extruded profile, has a first receptacle 201, in which the central regions 603, 1003 of the spiral springs 60, 100 are inserted. The retaining strip 20 has at the edge attached to the receptacle 201 wings 202, which are inserted after the middle portions in an assembly of the sealing device in the receptacle 201, are bent inwards so that they cover the central region 603, 1003 of the bending springs 60, 100. The central areas 603, 1003 of the torsion springs 60, 100 are thereby secured perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the retaining strip 20 in the receptacle 201. A displacement of the central regions 603, 1003, however, is possible, at least to a small extent.

Das zweite Ende 1202 des Mittels 120 zum Begrenzen einer Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils 30 in seine Längsrichtung ist ebenfalls mit der Halteleiste 20 verbunden, was anhand der Figuren 13a und 13b näher erläutert wird. Neben der ersten Aufnahme 201 weist die Halteleiste eine zweite Aufnahme 203 auf, in welchen die am zweiten Ende 1202 des Mittels 120 vorgesehenen freien Enden des U-förmigen Drahtbügels eingelegt sind. Die bereits erwähnten Flügel 202 der Halteleiste 20 sind in dem Bereich der Halteleiste 20, in dem die freien Enden der Schenkel in die zweiten Aufnahmen 203 eingelegt sind, nach außen gebogen und liegen fest an den freien Enden der Schenkel an. Die freien Enden des Drahtbügels, die an dem zweiten Ende des Mittels 120 vorgesehen sind und dieses bilden, sind so durch Kraft- und Formschluss fest mit der Halteleiste 20 verbunden.The second end 1202 of the means 120 for limiting movement of the sealing profile 30 in its longitudinal direction is also connected to the retaining strip 20, which is based on the Figures 13a and 13b is explained in more detail. In addition to the first receptacle 201, the retaining strip on a second receptacle 203, in which the provided at the second end 1202 of the means 120 free ends of the U-shaped wire bracket are inserted. The already mentioned wings 202 of the retaining strip 20 are in the region of the retaining strip 20, in which the free ends of the legs are inserted into the second receptacles 203, bent outwardly and are firmly against the free ends of the legs. The free ends of the wire bracket, which are provided at the second end of the means 120 and form this, are so connected by force and form fit firmly with the retaining strip 20.

Alternativ kann das zweite Ende 1202 des Mittels 120 zum Begrenzen einer Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils 30 in seine Längsrichtung beispielsweise auch durch einen Splint 130, der quer durch die Halteleiste 20 getrieben ist und der das zweite Ende 1202 klemmend hält, gesichert sein (siehe Fig. 14 bis 16).Alternatively, the second end 1202 of the means 120 for limiting movement of the weatherstrip 30 in its longitudinal direction may also be secured by, for example, a split pin 130 driven transversely through the retaining strip 20 and clamping the second end 1202 (see FIG Fig. 14 to 16 ).

In einer dritten Aufnahme 204 der Haltleiste 20 ist das Dichtungsprofil 30 befestigt (Fig. 6).In a third receptacle 204 of the retaining strip 20, the sealing profile 30 is attached ( Fig. 6 ).

Die zweite, in den Figuren 7a und 7b dargestellte Dichtungsvorrichtung unterscheidet sich von der ersten Dichtungsvorrichtung im Wesentlichen dadurch, dass sie in Längsrichtung länger ausgebildet ist und zusätzlich zu den Bauteilen der ersten Dichtungsvorrichtung eine weitere Biegefeder 150, ein weiteres Kopplungsmittel 160, ein weiteres Verbindungselement 170 und ein weiteres Befestigungselement 180 aufweist. Die weitere Biegefeder 150 ist identisch zu der ersten und der zweiten Biegefeder 60, 100, das weitere Kopplungsmittel 160 ist identisch zum Kopplungsmittel 70, das weitere Verbindungselement 170 ist identisch zum ersten und zweiten Verbindungselement 50, 90 und das weitere Befestigungselement 180 ist identisch zum ersten und zweiten Befestigungselement 80, 110.The second, in the FIGS. 7a and 7b Sealing device shown differs from the first sealing device essentially in that it is designed to be longer in the longitudinal direction and in addition to the components of the first sealing device has a further bending spring 150, a further coupling means 160, another connecting element 170 and another fastening element 180. The further bending spring 150 is identical to the first and the second bending spring 60, 100, the further coupling means 160 is identical to the coupling means 70, the further connecting element 170 is identical to the first and second connecting element 50, 90 and the further fastening element 180 is identical to the first and second fastener 80, 110.

Das weitere Kopplungsmittel 160 ist mit einem ersten Ende mit dem zweiten Verbindungselement 90 fest verbunden, so wie das erste Ende des Kopplungsmittels 70 mit dem ersten Verbindungselement 50 verbunden ist. Ein zweites Ende des weiteren Kopplungsmittels 160 ist mit dem weiteren Verbindungselement 170 verbunden, so wie das zweite Ende des Kopplungsmittels 70 mit dem zweiten Verbindungselement 90 verbunden ist. Die weitere Biegefeder 150 ist mit einem ersten Ende mit dem weiteren Verbindungselement 170 verbunden, so wie das erste Ende der ersten Biegefeder 60 mit dem ersten Verbindungselement 50 oder das erste Ende der zweiten Biegefeder 100 mit dem zweiten Verbindungselement 90 verbunden ist. Das zweite Ende der weiteren Biegefeder 150 ist mit dem weiteren Befestigungselement 180 verbunden, so wie das zweite Ende der ersten Biegefeder 60 mit dem ersten Befestigungselement 80 oder das zweite Ende der zweiten Biegefeder 100 mit dem zweiten Befestigungselement 110 verbunden ist.The further coupling means 160 is fixedly connected at a first end to the second connecting element 90, as the first end of the coupling means 70 is connected to the first connecting element 50. A second end of the further coupling means 160 is connected to the further connecting element 170, as the second end of the coupling means 70 is connected to the second connecting element 90. The further bending spring 150 is connected at a first end to the further connecting element 170, just as the first end of the first bending spring 60 is connected to the first connecting element 50 or the first end of the second bending spring 100 is connected to the second connecting element 90. The second end of the further bending spring 150 is connected to the further fastening element 180, such as the second end of the first bending spring 60 with the first fastening element 80 or the second end of the second bending spring 100 is connected to the second fastening element 110.

Das Mittel 120 zum Begrenzen einer Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils 30 in seine Längsrichtung ist mit seinem ersten Ende an dem ersten Befestigungselement 80 und mit seinem zweiten Ende an der Halteleiste 20 genauso wie bei der ersten Dichtungsvorrichtung angebracht.The means 120 for limiting movement of the sealing profile 30 in its longitudinal direction is attached at its first end to the first fastening element 80 and at its second end to the retaining strip 20 as well as the first sealing device.

Bei einer Betätigung des Auslösers 40 der ersten oder der zweiten Dichtungsvorrichtung werden die über das Kopplungsmittel 70 (die Kopplungsmittel 70, 160) miteinander verbundenen Verbindungselemente 50, 90 (50, 90, 170) in der Längsrichtung der Dichtungsvorrichtung verschoben. Dadurch verschieben sich die mit den Verbindungselementen 50, 80 (50, 80, 170) verbundenen ersten Enden der Biegefedern 60, 100 (60, 100, 150). Da die zweiten Enden der Biegefedern 60, 100 (60, 100, 150) über die Befestigungselemente 80, 110 (80, 110, 180) fest und unverschiebbar mit dem Gehäuse 10 verbunden sind, werden die mittleren Bereiche der Biegefedern 60, 100 (60, 100, 150) in einer Richtung senkrecht zur Längsrichtung ausgelenkt. Durch diese Auslenkung wird die Halteleiste 20 und das damit verbundene Dichtungsprofil 30 verschoben und legen dabei einen Weg A zurück (siehe Figuren 14 bis 16). Die Bahn, auf der sich die Halteleiste 20 und das Dichtungsprofil 30 dabei bewegen, wird zumindest teilweise von dem Mittel 120 zum Begrenzen einer Bewegung des Dichtungsprofils 30 in seine Längsrichtung vorgegeben. Das zweite Ende des Mittels 120, bewegt sich auf einem Kreisbogen um das erste, in dem ersten Befestigungselement 80 schwenkbar gelagerte Ende des Mittels 120. Dabei erfährt die Halteleiste 20 und das daran befestigte Dichtungsprofil einen Versatz x in der Längsrichtung, der entgegen der Bewegungsrichtung des Auslösers 40, der Verbindungselemente 50, 90 (50, 90, 170) und des Kopplungsmittels 70 (des Kopplungsmittels 70, 160) gerichtet ist (siehe Figuren 14 bis 16). Das dem Auslöser 40 entgegengesetzte Ende des Dichtungsprofils 30 ragt daher nach der Auslösung nicht mehr um einen Betrag B sondern um einen Betrag B-X über das Gehäuse 10 der Dichtungsvorrichtung heraus.Upon actuation of the trigger 40 of the first or second sealing device, the connecting elements 50, 90 (50, 90, 170) interconnected via the coupling means 70 (the coupling means 70, 160) are displaced in the longitudinal direction of the sealing device. As a result, the first ends of the bending springs 60, 100 (60, 100, 150) connected to the connecting elements 50, 80 (50, 80, 170) are displaced. Since the second ends of the torsion springs 60, 100 (60, 100, 150) are fixedly and immovably connected to the housing 10 via the fastening elements 80, 110 (80, 110, 180), the middle regions of the bending springs 60, 100 (60 , 100, 150) are deflected in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. As a result of this deflection, the retaining strip 20 and the sealing profile 30 connected thereto are displaced, thereby leaving a path A (see FIG FIGS. 14 to 16 ). The web on which the retaining strip 20 and the sealing profile 30 move is at least partially defined by the means 120 for limiting movement of the sealing profile 30 in its longitudinal direction. The second end of the means 120, moves on a circular arc around the first, in the first fastener 80 pivotally mounted end of the means 120. In this case, the retaining strip 20 and the attached sealing profile undergoes an offset x in the longitudinal direction, which is opposite to the direction of movement of Trigger 40, the fasteners 50, 90 (50, 90, 170) and the coupling means 70 (of the coupling means 70, 160) is directed (see FIGS. 14 to 16 ). Therefore, the end of the sealing profile 30 opposite the trigger 40 no longer protrudes after the release by an amount B but by an amount BX beyond the housing 10 of the sealing device.

Mit einer Dichtungsvorrichtung ist eine Niveauanpassung an einen nicht waagerecht ausgerichteten Fußboden möglich. Dieses wird dadurch erreicht das, wie in den Figuren 8a und 8b dargestellt, die Biegefeder in dem Bereich, in dem der Fußboden höher ist, aufgrund des Gegendrucks des Fußbodens stärker verformt wird als die Biegefeder, die die Halteleiste 20 und das Dichtungsprofil 30 in dem tieferen Fußbodenbereich auf den Fußboden drückt.With a sealing device is a level adjustment to a non-level floor possible. This is achieved by the, as in the FIGS. 8a and 8b shown, the bending spring in the area in which the floor is higher, is deformed more than the bending spring due to the back pressure of the floor, which presses the retaining strip 20 and the sealing profile 30 in the lower floor area on the floor.

Beim erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsbeispiel, wie es in den Figuren 17 bis 19c dargestellt ist, sind im Unterschied zur ersten Dichtungsvorrichtung gemäß der Figuren 1a bis 6 zusätzlich Mittel 190, 200 zur Hubbegrenzung vorgesehen. Diese können zum Beispiel als Stanz-Biegeteil aus Metall oder als Kunststoffformteil ausgeführt sein.In the embodiment according to the invention, as in the FIGS. 17 to 19c are shown, in contrast to the first sealing device according to the FIGS. 1a to 6 additional means 190, 200 provided for Hubbegrenzung. These can be designed, for example, as a punched-bent part made of metal or as a plastic molding.

Die Details der Mittel 190, 200 zur Hubbegrenzung sind im Weiteren nur für das Mittel 190 beschrieben, gelten aber ebenso für das Mittel 200 und bei Bedarf für weitere Mittel zur Hubbegrenzung bei anderen Dichtungen. So können zum Beispiel bei längeren Dichtungen mehr als zwei Mittel zur Hubbegrenzung vorgesehen sein.The details of the means 190, 200 for limiting the stroke are described below only for the means 190, but also apply to the means 200 and, if necessary, for further means for limiting the stroke in other seals. For example, with longer seals more than two means for limiting the stroke may be provided.

Das Mittel zur Hubbegrenzung 190 wird vorteilhaft durch einen Hebel gebildet, der einerseits mit ersten Zapfen 1901 schwenkbar und verschiebbar mit dem Gehäuse 10 und andererseits mit zweiten Zapfen 1902 schwenkbar mit der Halteleiste 20 verbunden ist. Die ersten Zapfen 1901 sind in die Nut zwischen dem Steg 101 und den weiteren Stegen 103 des Gehäuses eingeschoben. Der Durchmesser der ersten Zapfen 1901 ist so gewählt, dass das Mittel zur Hubbegrenzung 190 verschiebbar am Gehäuse angebracht ist. Die zweiten Zapfen 1902 sind in den Öffnungen 205 in der Halteleiste 20 gelagert. Vorteilig sind die zweiten Zapfen zum Einklipsen in die Öffnungen 205 ausgebildet. Dazu kann an den zweiten Zapfen 1902 eine Fase 1905 vorgesehen sein.The means for stroke limitation 190 is advantageously formed by a lever, which is connected pivotally and displaceably with the housing 10 on the one hand with first pin 1901 and on the other hand with second pin 1902 pivotally connected to the retaining strip 20. The first pin 1901 are inserted into the groove between the web 101 and the other webs 103 of the housing. The diameter of the first pin 1901 is selected so that the means for stroke limitation 190 is slidably mounted on the housing. The second pins 1902 are mounted in the openings 205 in the retaining strip 20. Advantageously, the second pins are designed for clipping into the openings 205. For this purpose, a chamfer 1905 may be provided on the second pin 1902.

Die Hubbegrenzung wird durch einen ersten Vorsprung 1903 bewirkt, der so ausgebildet ist, dass er eine Anschlagfläche aufweist, die im nicht abgesenkten Zustand der Dichtungsvorrichtung in einem ersten Winkel zu der Halteleiste 20 steht. Die Halteleiste 20 kann nur bis zu einem durch den ersten Winkel vorgegebenen Dichtungshub betätigt werden. Ist der maximale Hub erreicht, schlägt die Anschlagfläche des ersten Vorsprungs 1903 an der Halteleiste an.The stroke limitation is effected by a first projection 1903, which is designed such that it has a stop surface, which is in a non-lowered state of the sealing device at a first angle to the retaining strip 20. The retaining strip 20 can only be operated up to a predetermined by the first angle sealing stroke. When the maximum stroke is reached, the abutment surface of the first projection 1903 abuts on the retaining strip.

Ferner ist an dem Hebel ein zweiter Vorsprung 1904 so ausgebildet, dass er als Begrenzung und somit als Führung für die Feder 60 dient. Damit kann das in der Figur 12b. dargestellte Umbiegen der Stege 202 entfallen.Further, a second projection 1904 is formed on the lever so that it serves as a boundary and thus as a guide for the spring 60. This can be done in the FIG. 12b , shown bending the webs 202 accounts.

Ein derartiges oder technisch äquivalentes Mittel 190 zur Hubbegrenzung kann auch in anderen absenkbaren Dichtungsvorrichtungen Verwendung finden, um den Hub der Halteleiste einer solchen Dichtung zu begrenzen.Such or technically equivalent stroke limiting means 190 may also be used in other lowerable sealing devices to limit the stroke of the retaining strip of such a seal.
