Folding door consisting of narrow perpendicular boards (1) suspended at the top and strips (2) provided at their junctions, each of which has a broader joint covering portion (10) viewed in cross section and a bearing portion (11) projecting between the abutting surfaces of adjacent boards, this bearing portion (11) being hingedly connected to the two adjacent boards by means of tension springs (5) which are disposed in horizontal bores (4) in the boards and which have hinge connecting members (6) at their ends, characterised in that the abutting surfaces of the boards (1) have a rectangularly grooved profile (7) with flanks (8, 9) sloping at 45 degrees to the plane of the board and the bearing portion (11) of each strip has two planar flanges (12, 16) sloping at 45 degrees to the central plane of the strip, said flanges (12, 16) projecting into the groove (7) and forming, in conjunction with the flanks (8, 9) of the grooves, abutment surfaces for the boards (1) when they are aligned in the extended position.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Falttür, bestehend aus schmalen lotrechten, oben aufgehängten Platten und an deren Stossfugen angeordnete Leisten, von denen jede im Querschnitt gesehen einen breiteren Fugendeckteil und einen zwischen die Stossflächen benachbarter Platten vorspringenden Lagerteil aufweist, mit dem die beiden jeweils angrenzenden Platten mittels in horizontalen Bohrungen der Platten angeordneten Zugfedern, die an ihren Enden Scharnierverbindungsteile tragen, gelenkig verbunden sind.The invention relates to a folding door, consisting of narrow vertical plates suspended at the top and strips arranged on their butt joints, each of which, viewed in cross section, has a wider joint cover part and a bearing part projecting between the joint surfaces of adjacent plates, with which the two adjacent plates can be joined by means of horizontal bores of the plates arranged tension springs, which carry hinge connection parts at their ends, are articulated.

Bei einer aus DE-C 1 107 921 bekannten Falttür dieser Art haben die Leisten einen trapezförmigen Querschnitt, wobei die stumpfwinkligen Trapezkanten als Scharnierkanten für die Schwenkbewegung der Platten dienen. Aufgrund der Trapezform der Leisten ist es nicht möglich, die Falttür beim Schliessen völlig auszuziehen, d.h. die Platten in die miteinander fluchtende Lage zu bringen. Die Tür bleibt vielmehr auch in der Schliessstellung noch leicht zickzackförmig.In a folding door of this type known from DE-C 1 107 921, the strips have a trapezoidal cross-section, the obtuse-angled trapezoidal edges serving as hinge edges for the pivoting movement of the plates. Due to the trapezoidal shape of the strips, it is not possible to pull out the folding door completely when closing, i.e. to bring the plates into alignment. Rather, the door remains slightly zigzag in the closed position.

Es ist jedoch aus ästhetischen Gründen erwünscht, die Falttür beim Schliessen glatt auszuziehen, so dass die Platten miteinander fluchten. Glatt ausziehbare Falttüren sind aus DE-0 2438985 und DE-A 2814609 bekannt. Hierbei sind die Platten miteinander direkt oder über Zwischenleisten jeweils mittels an den Ecken angeordneter Scharnierbänder gelenkig verbunden. Hierfür benötigt man aus Kunststoff oder Gewebe bestehende flexible Gelenkbänder, die zwangsläufig an den Stossfugen der Platten sichtbar sind, da bei diesen Konstruktionen keine Fugendeckleisten vorgesehen sind. Diese Konstruktionen sind daher insbesondere für Holzfalttüren, bei denen nur holzfurnierte Teile von aussen sichtbar sein sollen, ungeeignet.For aesthetic reasons, however, it is desirable to pull out the folding door smoothly when closing so that the panels are flush with one another. Fold-out doors that can be pulled out smoothly are known from DE-0 2438985 and DE-A 2814609. Here, the plates are connected to one another directly or via intermediate strips by means of hinge straps arranged at the corners. This requires flexible hinges made of plastic or fabric, which are inevitably visible at the butt joints of the panels, since no joint cover strips are provided in these constructions. These constructions are therefore particularly unsuitable for wooden folding doors in which only wood-veneered parts are to be visible from the outside.

Eine Falttür, wie sie durch die Entgegenhaltung DE-A 2934266 bekannt ist, kann aufgrund der Ausbildung ihrer Holzscharniere und der zugehörigen Stirnflächen der Holzplatten nicht völlig ausgezogen werden. Wie insbesondere aus der Fig. 2 zu ersehen ist, bleibt zwischen benachbarten Holzplatten ein stumpfer Winkel bestehen.A folding door, as is known from document DE-A 2934266, cannot be completely pulled out due to the design of its wooden hinges and the associated end faces of the wooden panels. As can be seen in particular from FIG. 2, an obtuse angle remains between adjacent wooden panels.

Die aus der Entgegenhaltung DE-A 2912514 bekannte Falttür kann zwar in eine völlig gestreckte Lage gebracht werden, entspricht aber nicht der Gattung des Anmeldungsgegenstandes. Die Platten dieser Tür sind nicht drehbar aufgehängt und auch nicht durch in Bohrungen angeordnete Federmittel mit den Fugenleisten (und dadurch untereinander) verbunden. Bei der Entgegenhaltung handelt es sich vielmehr um eine zweischalige Falttür mit der entsprechenden Anordnung eines Betätigungsorgans zwischen den beiden Schalen. Weiterhin fehlen auch die Profilteile der Fugenleisten, deren Ausbildung nur im Zusammenhang mit der gattungsgemässen Anordnung von Zugfedern, die an ihren Enden Scharnierverbindungsteile tragen, betrachtet werden können.The folding door known from document DE-A 2912514 can be brought into a completely extended position, but does not correspond to the type of the subject of the application. The panels of this door are not rotatably suspended and are also not connected to the joint strips (and therefore to one another) by spring means arranged in bores. The citation is rather a double-skin folding door with the corresponding arrangement of an actuating member between the two shells. Furthermore, the profile parts of the joint strips are also missing, the design of which can only be considered in connection with the generic arrangement of tension springs which carry hinge connection parts at their ends.

Die aus der Entgegenhaltung DE-U 7735882 bekannte Faltwand entspricht ebenfalls nicht der Gattung des Anmeldungsgegenstandes, denn die Platten sind nicht drehbar aufgehängt und auch nicht durch in Bohrungen angeordnete Federmittel mit den Fugenleisten verbunden. Vielmehr wird bei diesen bekannten Falttüren die Verbindung durch formschlüssig ineinandergreifende Profilteile an den Plattenstossflächen einerseits und den Fugenleisten andererseits erreicht. Die Auskehlungen der Plattenstossflächen dienen nur dazu, um einen Hintergriff der entsprechenden Profilvorsprünge der Leisten und damit eine Verbindung der Platten und Leisten zu bewirken. Die Auskehlungen der Plattenstossflächen und die in sie hineingreifenden Profilteile der Fugenleisten dienen bei dieser bekannten Faltwand somit einem anderen Zweck.The folding wall known from document DE-U 7735882 also does not correspond to the type of the subject of the application, because the plates are not rotatably suspended and are also not connected to the joint strips by spring means arranged in bores. Rather, in these known folding doors, the connection is achieved by form-fitting interlocking profile parts on the panel joint surfaces on the one hand and the joint strips on the other. The grooves of the plate abutment surfaces serve only to cause the corresponding profile projections of the strips to engage behind and thus to connect the plates and strips. The grooves of the panel abutment surfaces and the profile parts of the joint strips engaging in them serve a different purpose in this known folding wall.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Falttür. der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die glatt in eine fluchtende Stellung der Platten ausgezogen werden kann.The invention has for its object a folding door. to create the type mentioned, which can be pulled out smoothly in an aligned position of the plates.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäss der Erfindung durch die im Patentanspruch gekennzeichneten Merkmale gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features characterized in the claim.

Hierdurch wird der Vorteil erreicht, dass jede Platte um den in ihrer Auskehlung ragenden Profilteil der Leiste um 90° geschwenkt werden kann, so dass die Platten aus der voll zusammengeschobenen Stellung, in der sie den Winkel 0° einschliessen, in die fluchtende oder 180°-Stellung gebracht werden können.This achieves the advantage that each plate can be pivoted by 90 ° around the profile part of the bar projecting in its groove, so that the plates move from the fully collapsed position, in which they enclose the angle 0 °, into the aligned or 180 ° Position can be brought.

  • 1 shows in perspective a part of the folding door, namely two adjacent panels and a strip, according to one embodiment of the invention.
  • 2 and 3 show a cross section through the arrangement according to FIG. 1, namely in the open or closed position of the folding door.
  • Fig. 4 shows in cross section a modified embodiment of the invention.

Bei der Ausführungsform gemäss Fig. 1 bis 3 besteht die Falttür aus zahlreichen schmalen lotrechten Platten 1 und an deren Stossfugen angeordneten Leisten 2. In der Zeichnung sind der Einfachheit halber nur zwei Platten und eine Leiste dargestellt. Jede Platte oder vorzugsweise nur jede zweite Platte 1 ist mittels einer Aufhängevorrichtung 3 in einer (nicht dargestellten) Tragschiene aufgehängt und verschiebbar geführt. In jeder Platte 1 sind mehrere horizontale Bohrungen 4, Nuten oder Ausfräsungen angebracht, in denen jeweils eine Zugfeder 5 untergebracht ist, die an ihren Enden mit Scharnierhaken 6 versehen ist. Die Stossflächen der Platten 1 sind ausgekehlt, d.h. sie bilden bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform eine Nut 7 mit ebenen, unter 45° zur Plattenebene geneigten Flanken 8, 9.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3, the folding door consists of numerous narrow vertical plates 1 and strips 2 arranged on their butt joints. For the sake of simplicity, only two plates and one strip are shown in the drawing. Each plate or preferably only every second plate 1 is suspended by means of a suspension device 3 in a mounting rail (not shown) and guided in a displaceable manner. In each plate 1, several horizontal bores 4, grooves or cutouts are made, in each of which a tension spring 5 is accommodated, which is provided with hinge hooks 6 at its ends. The abutting surfaces of the plates 1 are grooved, i.e. in the embodiment shown, they form a groove 7 with flat flanks 8, 9 which are inclined at 45 ° to the plate plane.

Jede Leiste 2 besteht aus einem T-förmigen Fugendeckteil 10 und aus einem daran unter 45° angesetzten Winkelstück 11, dessen beide Flansche 12 in die Auskehlungen 7 der angrenzenden Platten 1 vorspringen. Das Winkelstück 11 kann beispielsweise als Metallwinkelprofil ausgebildet sein, während das Fugendeckteit 10 beispielsweise als Holzteil oder holzfurniertes Kunststoffteil ausgebildet sein kann, wobei die Oberfläche des Fugendeckteils 10 vorteilhafterweise der Oberfläche der Platten 1 angepasst ist. Selbstverständlich sind auch andere Materialien möglich, z.B. kann das Winkelstück 11 oder auch die ganze Leiste 2 aus Kunststoff bestehen, die Oberflächen des Fugendeckteils und der Platten können statt aus Holz auch aus Kunststoff, Textil od.dgl. bestehen.Each strip 2 consists of a T-shaped joint cover part 10 and an angle piece 11 attached to it at 45 °, the two flanges 12 of which protrude into the grooves 7 of the adjacent plates 1. The elbow 11 can For example, be designed as a metal angle profile, while the joint cover 10 can be designed, for example, as a wooden part or wood-veneered plastic part, the surface of the joint cover part 10 advantageously being adapted to the surface of the panels 1. Of course, other materials are also possible, for example the angle piece 11 or the entire strip 2 can be made of plastic, the surfaces of the joint cover part and the plates can be made of plastic, textile or the like instead of wood. consist.

Die Flansche 12 haben Öffnungen 13, in die die Scharnierhaken 6 eingehängt sind. Auf diese Weise sind die Platten 1 mit den Leisten 2 gelenkig verbunden, so dass insgesamt eine Gelenkverbindung der Platten 1 untereinander geschaffen wird.The flanges 12 have openings 13 into which the hinge hooks 6 are suspended. In this way, the plates 1 are hinged to the strips 2, so that a joint connection of the plates 1 to one another is created.

Fig. 2 zeigt, wie die Platten 1 in der geöffneten Stellung der Tür in die parallele Lage zusammengeschoben werden, wobei die einen Flanken 9 der Auskehlungen 7 an den Innenflächen des Winkelstücks 11 anliegen. Fig.3 zeigt die geschlossene Stellung der Tür, bei der die Platten 1 in die miteinander fluchtende Stellung geschwenkt worden sind, wobei die anderen Flanken 8 der Auskehlungen 7 an den Aussenflächen des Winkelstücks 11 anliegen. Die Flanken 8 und die Aussenflächen 14 des Winkelstücks 11 sind somit zusammenwirkende Anschlagflächen, die die fluchtende Stellung der Platten 1 festlegen und ein noch weiteres Verschwenken der Platten 1 verhindern.Fig. 2 shows how the plates 1 are pushed together in the open position of the door in the parallel position, the one flanks 9 of the grooves 7 abutting the inner surfaces of the elbow 11. 3 shows the closed position of the door, in which the plates 1 have been pivoted into the aligned position, the other flanks 8 of the grooves 7 abutting the outer surfaces of the angle piece 11. The flanks 8 and the outer surfaces 14 of the angle piece 11 are thus cooperating stop surfaces which determine the aligned position of the plates 1 and prevent the plates 1 from pivoting still further.

Jede Stossfuge zwischen zwei benachbarten Platten 1 ist auf der einen Seite durch den Fugendeckteil 10 der Leiste 2 abgedeckt. Bei geöffneter Tür stehen die Leisten 2 dicht an dicht, wie im linken Teil von Fig. 2 gestrichelt angedeutet, so dass sich eine insgesamt fast geschlossene Stirnfläche der zusammengeschobenen Tür ergibt. In der geschlossenen Stellung der Tür gemäss Fig. 3 ist auf der der Leiste 2 gegenüberliegenden Seite die Stossfuge der Platten sichtbar, erscheint jedoch hier als neutrale dunkle Fuge, da ihr Hintergrund von der Innenseite des Winkels 11 gebildet wird, der weit von der Eingangsöffnung der Fuge entfernt liegt und daher kein Licht erhält. Vorteilhaft ist es, wenn mindestens die Innenflächen des Winkelstücks 11 in dunkler Farbe gehalten sind.Each butt joint between two adjacent panels 1 is covered on one side by the joint cover part 10 of the strip 2. When the door is open, the strips 2 are close to each other, as indicated by dashed lines in the left part of FIG. 2, so that an almost closed end face of the pushed-together door results. In the closed position of the door according to FIG. 3, the butt joint of the panels is visible on the side opposite the bar 2, but appears here as a neutral dark joint, since its background is formed by the inside of the angle 11, which is far from the entrance opening of the The joint lies away and therefore receives no light. It is advantageous if at least the inner surfaces of the angle piece 11 are kept in a dark color.

Statt der vorstehend beschriebenen Haken 6 als Scharnierteile können auch anderweitig ausgebildete Scharnierteile oder Gelenkverbindungen mit Federn, Scharnieren, Ölsen, Drähten und Bändern, auch aus unterschiedlichen Materialien verwendet werden. Bei entsprechender Wahl der Gelenkverbindung ist es auch möglich, die Aufhängevorrichtung 3 an der Platte 1 aussermittig oder an einer dafür ausgebildeten Fugendeckleiste 2 anzubringen.Instead of the hooks 6 described above as hinge parts, other hinge parts or articulated connections with springs, hinges, oil rings, wires and bands, made of different materials, can also be used. With a corresponding choice of the articulated connection, it is also possible to attach the suspension device 3 to the plate 1 off-center or to a joint cover strip 2 designed for this purpose.

Eine derartige Leiste ist in der Fig. 4 gezeigt, und besteht aus einem Profilteil, beispielsweise aus Kunststoff, mit zwei einen Winkel von ungefähr 90° einschliessenden Schenkeln 16, die wie bereits beschrieben mit Scharnierhaken 6 in den entsprechend ausgekehlten Platten 1 zusammenwirken. Die Schenkel 16 münden in einen, im wesentlichen T-förmigen Fugendeckteil 10, dessen mittlerer Schenkel mit einer Bohrung 17 zur Aufnahme einer Achse für eine asymmetrische Aufhängung versehen ist. Dabei kann die die Bohrung 17 umgebende Wand geschlossen oder zwischen den beiden Schenkeln 16 geöffnet sein. Der Fugendeckteii 10 kann an seinem querliegenden Teil leicht gebogen sein und ist an seiner Aussenseite mit dem entsprechenden dekorativen Material, wie beispielsweise einem Holzfurnier 18, od. dgl., versehen.Such a strip is shown in FIG. 4, and consists of a profile part, for example made of plastic, with two legs 16 enclosing an angle of approximately 90 °, which, as already described, interact with hinge hooks 6 in the correspondingly grooved plates 1. The legs 16 open into an essentially T-shaped joint cover part 10, the middle leg of which is provided with a bore 17 for receiving an axis for an asymmetrical suspension. The wall surrounding the bore 17 can be closed or opened between the two legs 16. The joint cover 10 can be slightly curved on its transverse part and is provided on the outside with the corresponding decorative material, such as a wood veneer 18 or the like.

Die beschriebene Gelenkverbindung kann sowohl für einschalige als auch für zweischalige Falttüren verwendet werden.The articulated connection described can be used both for single-skin and for double-skin folding doors.
