Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Türanlage mit wenigstens einem Scharnier, insbesondere eine Ganzglas-Türanlage innerhalb einer einen Sportbereich abtrennenden Glaswand, beispielsweise für einen Squash-Court, wobei die beiden durch den Drehzapfen miteinander verbundenen Scharnierteile auf der dem Sportbereich abgewandten Seite der Glaswand angeordnet sind und gegenseitige Anschlagflächen aufweisen, die den Öffnungswinkel der sich zum Sportbereich hin öffnenden Tür begrenzen.The invention relates to a door system with at least one hinge, in particular an all-glass door system within a glass wall separating a sports area, for example for a squash court, the two hinge parts connected to one another by the pivot being arranged on the side of the glass wall facing away from the sports area and mutually Have stop surfaces that limit the opening angle of the door opening towards the sports area.

Trennwände aus durchsichtigen oder teilweise durchsichtigen Glasplatten mit Türanlagen finden insbesondere bei Squash-Anlagen, bei Racketball-Anlagen oder auch in anderen Sport- bzw. Spielhallen Anwendung.Partitions made of transparent or partially transparent glass plates with door systems are used in particular in squash systems, in racquetball systems or in other sports or game halls.

Aus der EP 0 047 103 A1 ist eine Türanlage mit einem Scharnier der eingangs genannten Art bekannt. Bei dieser bekannten Türanlage weist die Glastür jeweils einen Randausschnitt für jedes Scharnier auf, in den Teile des Scharniers hineinragen und den ausgeschnittenen Bereich der Tür ausfüllen. Das Drehlager ist innerhalb dieser in den Randausschnitt der Glastür hineinragenden Teile angeordnet, so daß die Drehachse sich im Bereich des Türflügels befindet. Die den Öffnungswinkel der Tür begrenzenden Anschlagflächen werden bei dieser bekannten Scharnieranordnung bei dem einen Scharnierteil durch die in der Ebene der dem Sportbereich zugewandten Oberfläche der Glasscheibe liegende Fläche des in den Randausschnitt hineinragenden Teiles, und bei dem anderen Scharnierteil durch eine rechtwinklig zur Türebene verlaufende, sich ebenfalls in den Randausschnitt hinein erstreckende Begrenzungsfläche gebildet.A door system with a hinge of the type mentioned at the outset is known from EP 0 047 103 A1. In this known door system, the glass door has an edge cutout for each hinge, into which parts of the hinge protrude and fill the cut-out area of the door. The pivot bearing is arranged within these parts projecting into the edge cutout of the glass door, so that the axis of rotation is located in the area of the door leaf. The stop surfaces that limit the opening angle of the door are in this known hinge arrangement in one hinge part by the surface of the part protruding into the edge cutout in the plane of the surface of the glass pane facing the sports area, and in the other hinge part by a part running at right angles to the door plane also formed into the boundary surface extending boundary surface.

Die bekannte gattungsgemäße Anordnung hat verschiedene Nachteile. Zum einen schwenkt bei dieser Anordnung der zwischen der Drehachse und der benachbarten Kante liegende Randbereich des Türflügels beim Öffnen der Tür nach außen auf. Dadurch wird ein sich erweiternder Spalt von bis zu einigen Zentimetern Breite gebildet. Wenn auf dieser Seite der Trennwand, wo sich die Zuschauer aufhalten, eine Person mit den Fingern in diesen Spalt hineingreift, besteht eine erhebliche Verletzungsgefahr beim Schließen der Tür, denn durch die Türkante werden große Scherkräfte in diesem Bereich ausgeübt. Ferner bedeutet die Anbringung von Randausschnitten in dem Glasblatt nicht nur einen zusätzlichen Arbeitsaufwand bei der Herstellung der Tür, sondern es wird auch die Festigkeit des Glasblatts hierdurch beeinträchtigt. Außerdem hat es sich gezeigt, daß derartige Randausschnitte zu Verwerfungen der Glasplatte bei der für das Vorspannen der Glasplatte notwendigen Erwärmung führen können.The known generic arrangement has various disadvantages. On the one hand, this arrangement pivots the edge area of the door leaf lying between the axis of rotation and the adjacent edge on opening when the door is open. This creates an expanding gap of up to a few centimeters in width. If a person reaches into this gap with their fingers on this side of the partition where the spectators are staying, there is a considerable risk of injury when the door is closed because the door edge exerts great shear forces in this area. Furthermore, the provision of edge cutouts in the glass sheet not only means additional work in the manufacture of the door, but it also impairs the strength of the glass sheet. In addition, it has been shown that such edge cutouts can lead to warping of the glass plate during the heating necessary for tempering the glass plate.

Es ist ferner ein Zapfenband zum verdeckten Anbringen im Innern eines Möbels bekannt, das einen zum Einlassen in eine Bohrung im Möbel bestimmtes Lagerteil sowie ein hiermit zusammenwirkendes, am Türflügel befestigtes Scharnierteil mit einer Anschraubplatte und einem am Ende mit dem Drehzapfen zusammenwirkenden Bügel aufweist, der so geformt ist, daß die Tür ausgedreht werden kann, zur Begrenzung der Ausdrehbewegung jedoch ein Anschlag in dem Lagerteil vorgesehen ist (CH-A 346 786). Solche Zapfenbänder eignen sich nicht für die Anwendung bei Glastüren, da die Anbringung von Sackbohrungen am Rand von Glasplatten nicht möglich ist. Eine diesem bekannten Zapfenband entsprechende Anordnung der Anschlagflächen zur Begrenzung der Öffnungsbewegung der Tür würde darüber hinaus auf die Kante der Glasplatte Kräfte ausüben, die zu einer Beschädigung oder Zerstörung der Glasplatte im Bereich der Anschlagflächen führen würde.There is also known a hinge for concealed attachment inside a piece of furniture, which has a bearing part intended for insertion into a hole in the piece of furniture and a hinge part which cooperates with it and is fastened to the door leaf with a screw-on plate and a bracket which cooperates at the end with the pivot pin, in this way is shaped so that the door can be turned, but a stop is provided in the bearing part to limit the unscrewing movement (CH-A 346 786). Such pin hinges are not suitable for use with glass doors, since blind holes cannot be drilled on the edge of glass plates. An arrangement of the stop surfaces corresponding to this known pin hinge to limit the opening movement of the door would also exert forces on the edge of the glass plate, which would lead to damage or destruction of the glass plate in the region of the stop surfaces.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine für eine einen Sportbereich abtrennende Glaswand geeignete Tür- und Scharnieranordnung zu schaffen, bei der unter Beibehaltung von Anschlagflächen zur Begrenzung der Öffnungsbewegung der Tür einerseits jede Verletzungsgefahr auf der dem Sportbereich abgewandten Seite durch Schwenk- und Scherbewegungen in dem der Drehachse benachbarten Bereich der Tür sicher vermieden wird, und bei der andererseits darüber hinaus das Türblatt ohne die Gefahr von Verwerfungen herstellbar ist.The object of the invention is to provide a door suitable for a glass wall separating a sports area. and to create a hinge arrangement in which, while maintaining stop surfaces to limit the opening movement of the door, on the one hand any risk of injury on the side facing away from the sports area is reliably avoided by pivoting and shearing movements in the area of the door adjacent to the axis of rotation, and on the other hand that Door leaf can be produced without the risk of warping.

Gemäß der Erfindung wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß das Türblatt in dem der Drehachse benachbarten Bereich eine geradlinige Kante ohne Randausschnitte aufweist und die Scharnierteile (6, 13)ebene Befestigungsflächen (11) aufweisen, daß das Drehlager an dem an der feststehenden Glasplatte befestigten Scharnierteil hinter der Befestigungsfläche im Abstand von der Kante der Glasplatte angeordnet ist, daß der den Drehzapfen tragende Abschnitt des an der feststehenden Glasplatte befestigten Scharnierteils an seinem vorderen Ende die Anschlagfläche bildet, die um einen Abstand (A) geringfügig über die Fläche bzw. Kante der diesen Scharnierteil tragenden Glasplatte vorsteht, und daß der den Drehzapfen tragende Abschnitt des an dem Türblatt befestigten Scharnierteils derart verlängert und umgebogen bzw. abgekröpft ist, daß beim Öffnen der Tür der umgebogene und abgekröpfte Abschnitt um den die Anschlagfläche bildenden Abschnitt des an der feststehenden Glasplatte befestigten Scharnierteils und um den Randbereich der feststehenden Glasplatte bis zur Anlage an die Anschlagfläche herumschwenkbar ist.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the door leaf in the area adjacent to the axis of rotation has a straight edge without edge cutouts and the hinge parts (6, 13) have flat fastening surfaces (11) in that the pivot bearing on the hinge part fastened to the fixed glass plate is arranged behind the mounting surface at a distance from the edge of the glass plate that the pivot-bearing portion of the hinge part fastened to the fixed glass plate forms the stop surface at its front end, which is a distance (A) slightly above the surface or edge of the latter Hinge part supporting glass plate protrudes, and that the pivot bearing portion of the hinge part attached to the door leaf is extended and bent or bent so that when the door is opened the bent and bent portion around the stop surface forming the section of the fixed glass plate b Fixed hinge part and around the edge area of the fixed glass plate can be pivoted up to the abutment surface.

Das erfindungsgemäße Scharnier erfordert lediglich die Anbringung von durchgehenden Bohrungen in den Glasplatten im Abstand vom Rand, jedoch keinerlei Randausschnitte. Dadurch wird die Herstellung der Türblätter aus thermisch vorgespanntem Glas wesentlich vereinfacht. Insbesondere wird jede Gefahr ausgeschlossen, daß die Glasscheibe sich infolge der bei Vorhandensein von Randausschnitten unvermeidlich inhomogenen Erwärmung bei der Aufheizung für den Vorspannprozeß verzieht oder verwirft, d.h. ihre Ebenheit bleibt vollständig erhalten. Ferner wird durch die Verlagerung der Drehachse aus dem Bereich des Türblattes heraus in den Bereich des an dem feststehenden Wandteil befestigten Scharnierteils erreicht, daß das Türblatt auf seiner gesamten Breite einschließlich des Kantenbereichs nach innen, d.h. zum Sportbereich hin, schwenkt, so daß die erhöhte Verletzungsgefahr für die Zuschauer beseitigt ist. Außerdem kann durch entsprechende Wahl der Lage der Drehachse und der Dimensionierung des gebogenen bzw. abgekröpften Teils des an dem Türflügel befestigten Scharnierteils erreicht werden, daß während der Schwenkbewegung des Türflügels der Abstand zwischen dem Kantenbereich des Türblatts einerseits und dem sich anschließenden Wandteil andererseits auf dem ganzen Weg höchstens einige Millimeter beträgt, so daß auch aus diesem Grund die Gefahr, daß die Finger einer Person zwischen der Tür und dem Seitenteil eingeklemmt werden, vollständig beseitigt ist. Gleichzeitig wird durch die erfindungsgemäße Augestaltung der Scharnierteile und die dementsprechende Bildung der Anschlagflächen erreicht, daß auch bei heftigen Öffnungsbewegungen der Tür keine für die Glasplatten schädlichen Kräfte auf die Glasplatten ausgeübt werden.The hinge according to the invention only requires the provision of through holes in the glass plates at a distance from the edge, but no edge cutouts. This considerably simplifies the manufacture of the door leaves from thermally toughened glass. In particular, any risk is excluded that the glass pane inevitable due to the presence of edge cutouts inhomogeneous heating during the warping warps or warps, ie their flatness is completely preserved. Furthermore, by shifting the axis of rotation from the area of the door leaf into the area of the hinge part attached to the fixed wall part, the door leaf swivels inwards over its entire width including the edge area, ie towards the sports area, so that the increased risk of injury for the viewer is eliminated. In addition, by appropriate choice of the position of the axis of rotation and the dimensioning of the bent or bent part of the hinge part fastened to the door leaf, it can be achieved that during the pivoting movement of the door leaf the distance between the edge region of the door leaf on the one hand and the adjoining wall part on the other all Path is at most a few millimeters, so that for this reason too, the risk of a person's fingers being pinched between the door and the side part is completely eliminated. At the same time is achieved by the inventive design of the hinge parts and the corresponding formation of the stop surfaces that even with violent opening movements of the door no harmful forces for the glass plates are exerted on the glass plates.

Weitere Vorteile, Einzelheiten und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen sowie aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels anhand der Zeichnungen.Further advantages, details and developments of the invention result from the subclaims and from the following description of a preferred exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawings.

Die dargestellte Tueranlage ist Teil einer Glastrennwand eines Squash-Courts. Saemtliche Glasplatten der Glastrennwand bestehen ebenso wie die Glastuer 1 aus vorgespanntem Glas, d.h. aus Einscheibensicherheitsglas. In dem Bereich, in dem die Glastuer 1 an der Glasplatte 2 befestigt ist, ist die Glasplatte 2 auf ihrer Aussenseite, d.h. auf der dem Sportbereich abgewandten Seite, durch eine rechtwinklig zu der Glasplatte 2 angeordnete Aussteifungsglasplatte 4 abgestuetzt. Die Befestigung dieser Aussteifungsglasplatte 4 an der Glasplatte 2 erfolgt im dargestellten Fall ueber den an der Glasplatte 2 befestigten Scharnierteil 6.The door system shown is part of a glass partition of a squash court. All of the glass panels of the glass partition wall, like the glass door 1, consist of tempered glass, i.e. made of toughened safety glass. In the area in which the glass door 1 is attached to the glass plate 2, the glass plate 2 is on its outside, i.e. on the side facing away from the sports area, supported by a stiffening glass plate 4 arranged at right angles to the glass plate 2. In the case shown, this stiffening glass plate 4 is fastened to the glass plate 2 via the hinge part 6 fastened to the glass plate 2.

Der Scharnierteil 6 hat einen im wesentlichen L-foermigen Querschnitt. Er umfasst einen eine ebene Befestigungsflaeche 11 aufweisenden Schenkel 7, mit dem er mit Hilfe von Schraubverbindungen 8 an der Glasplatte 2 befestigt wird, sowie einen rechtwinklig zu dem Schenkel 7 angeordneten Schenkel 9. Mit dem Schenkel 9 wird die Versteifungsglasplatte 4 ebenfalls mit Hilfe von Schraubverbindungen 8 verschraubt. Zwischen den Schenkeln 7 und 9 des Scharnierteils 6 und den Glasplatten 2 bzw. 4 sind jeweils Zwischenlagen 10 aus geeignetem elastischen Material zwischengeschaltet.The hinge part 6 has an essentially L-shaped cross section. It comprises a leg 7 having a flat fastening surface 11, with which it is fastened to the glass plate 2 with the aid of screw connections 8, and a leg 9 arranged at right angles to the leg 7. The stiffening glass plate 4 is also attached to the leg 9 with the aid of screw connections 8 screwed. Between the legs 7 and 9 of the hinge part 6 and the glass plates 2 and 4, intermediate layers 10 made of a suitable elastic material are interposed.

Der Schenkel 7 des Scharnierteils 6 weist an seinem freien Ende eine Zunge 12 auf, die das Drehlager traegt und mit dem anderen Scharnierteil 13 zusammenwirkt. Die Zunge 12 hat an ihrem vorderen Ende eine ebene Anschlagflaeche 14. Die Bohrung 15 in dem Schenkel 7 des Scharnierteils 6 und die Bohrung 16 in der Glasplatte 2 sind im Verhaeltnis zueinander so angeordnet, dass die Anschlagflaeche 14 der Zunge 12 um den Abstand A von groessenordnungsmaessig 2 bis 3 mm ueber die Flaeche bzw. Kante 17 der Glasplatte 2 vorsteht. Dieser Ueberstand der Zunge 12 ueber die Kante (17) der Glasscheibe 2 dient dazu, sicher zu verhindern, dass beim Oeffnen der Tuer der Scharnierteil 13 mit der Kante 17 der Glasscheibe 2 in Beruehrung kommt.The leg 7 of the hinge part 6 has at its free end a tongue 12 which supports the pivot bearing and with the other hinge part 13 cooperates. The tongue 12 has a flat stop surface 14 at its front end. The bore 15 in the leg 7 of the hinge part 6 and the bore 16 in the glass plate 2 are arranged in relation to one another in such a way that the stop surface 14 of the tongue 12 by the distance A from protrudes 2 to 3 mm over the surface or edge 17 of the glass plate 2. This projection of the tongue 12 over the edge (17) of the glass pane 2 serves to reliably prevent the hinge part 13 from coming into contact with the edge 17 of the glass pane 2 when the door is opened.

Die Zunge 12 des Scharnierteils 6 hat im Vergleich zu dem Schenkel 7 eine groessere Dicke, damit die Materialstaerke fuer die Anordnung des Drehlagers ausreichend ist. In der Zunge 12 befindet sich eine durchgehende Bohrung 18 fuer die Aufnahme des Drehzapfens 19, der die Drehachse D-D bildet. Die Drehachse weist einen Abstand B von der Kante 17 der Glasscheibe 2 und von der Anschlagflaeche 14 der Zunge 12 auf, der etwa 15 bis 25 mm betraegt.The tongue 12 of the hinge part 6 has a greater thickness than the leg 7 so that the material thickness is sufficient for the arrangement of the pivot bearing. In the tongue 12 there is a through hole 18 for receiving the pivot 19, which forms the axis of rotation D-D. The axis of rotation is at a distance B from the edge 17 of the glass pane 2 and from the stop surface 14 of the tongue 12, which is approximately 15 to 25 mm.

Der Scharnierteil 13 besteht aus einer plattenfoermigen Befestigungslasche 21 und einem im Querschnitt U-foermigen Abschnitt 22, dessen einer Schenkel 23 sich an die Befestigungslasche 21 anschliesst, und dessen anderer Schenkel 24, der das Drehlager traegt, zur Aufnahme der Zunge 12 in der Mitte ausgefraest ist. Die Befestigungslasche 21 des Scharnierteils 13 weist eine ebene Befestigungsflaeche 11 auf und ist unter Zwischenschaltung einer geeigneten elastischen Zwischenlage mit Hilfe von Schraubverbindungen 8 auf dem Tuerblatt 1 befestigt. Das Tuerblatt 1 ist ebenso wie die Glasplatte 2 mit Bohrungen 16 versehen, die auf der dem Scharnier gegenueberliegenden Seite versenkt sind. Die Schraubverbindungen 8 bestehen jeweils aus einer Senkkopfschraube 28, die auf der Seite der Glasplatte angeordnet ist, und einer Mutter 29, die unter Zwischenschaltung einer Zahnscheibe 30 in der angesenkten Durchgangsbohrung 15 des jeweiligen Beschlagteils 7,9 und 21 angeordnet ist. Zwischen der Bohrung 16 in der Glasplatte und der Senkkopfschraube 28 ist jeweils eine Kunststoffhuelse 20 zwischengeschaltet. Die Kopfflaechen der Senkkopfschrauben 28 schliessen buendig mit der Oberflaeche der Glasplatten ab. Das Tuerblatt 1 weist eine geradlinig durchgehende Kante 27 ohne Randausschnitte auf und ist in diesem Randbereich nur mit Bohrungen 16 versehen, die jedoch fuer die Waermebehandlung und die Vorspannung des Tuerblatts 1 unkritisch sind.The hinge part 13 consists of a plate-shaped fastening tab 21 and a section 22 with a U-shaped cross section, one leg 23 of which adjoins the fastening tab 21, and the other leg 24, which carries the pivot bearing, milled out to accommodate the tongue 12 in the middle is. The fastening tab 21 of the hinge part 13 has a flat fastening surface 11 and is fastened to the door leaf 1 with the interposition of a suitable elastic intermediate layer by means of screw connections 8. The door leaf 1, like the glass plate 2, is provided with bores 16 which are countersunk on the side opposite the hinge. The Screw connections 8 each consist of a countersunk screw 28, which is arranged on the side of the glass plate, and a nut 29, which is arranged with the interposition of a toothed washer 30 in the countersunk through hole 15 of the respective fitting parts 7, 9 and 21. A plastic sleeve 20 is interposed between the bore 16 in the glass plate and the countersunk screw 28. The top surfaces of the countersunk screws 28 are flush with the surface of the glass plates. The door leaf 1 has a straight, continuous edge 27 without edge cutouts and is only provided with bores 16 in this edge region, which, however, are not critical for the heat treatment and the pretensioning of the door leaf 1.

Die durch Ausfraesen des Mittelteils entstandenen beiden Abschnitte 24a, 24b des Schenkels 24 sind an ihrem freien Ende jeweils mit einer Bohrung 18 fuer die Aufnahme des Drehzapfens 19 versehen. Die Laengenabmessungen der Schenkel 23 und 24 und des Verbindungssteges zwischen diesen beiden Schenkeln sind so gewaehlt, dass die Drehbewegung der Tuer 1 in Richtung des Pfeiles F, d.h. zum Sportbereich hin, um den gewuenschten Drehwinkel ermoeglicht wird. Waehrend dieser Drehbewegung schwenkt der U-foermig profilierte Abschnitt 22 um die Zunge 12 und um den Randbereich der Glasplatte 2 herum, bis die ebene Anschlagflaeche 25, die durch das Ausfraesen des Schenkels 24 entstanden ist, gegen die Anschlagflaeche 14 der Zunge 12 zur Anlage kommt.The two sections 24a, 24b of the leg 24 formed by milling out the middle part are each provided at their free end with a bore 18 for receiving the pivot pin 19. The length dimensions of the legs 23 and 24 and the connecting web between these two legs are chosen so that the rotational movement of the door 1 in the direction of arrow F, i.e. towards the sports area, by the desired angle of rotation. During this rotary movement, the U-shaped section 22 pivots around the tongue 12 and around the edge region of the glass plate 2 until the flat stop surface 25, which is created by milling out the leg 24, comes to bear against the stop surface 14 of the tongue 12 .

Die Scharnierteile 6 und 13 bestehen zweckmaessigerweise aus Aluminium und werden aus Strangpressprofilen mit entsprechendem Querschnitt hergestellt. Die Wandstaerke der Scharnierteile betraegt fuer den erfindungsgemaessen Zweck, bei dem die Glaswand und die Tuer starken Stossbeanspruchungen ausgesetzt sind, beispielsweise 8 bis 10 mm. Die Hoehe H eines Scharniers kann beispielsweise etwa 100 mm, und die Gesamtbreite beispielsweise 150 bis 170 mm betragen.The hinge parts 6 and 13 are expediently made of aluminum and are produced from extruded profiles with a corresponding cross section. The wall thickness of the hinge parts for the purpose according to the invention is in which the glass wall and the door are subjected to heavy impact loads, for example 8 to 10 mm. The height H of a hinge can be approximately 100 mm, for example, and the overall width can be, for example, 150 to 170 mm.
