Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Spannvorrichtung für ein flexibles, flächiges Abdeckmittel, wie Jalousie, Markisentuch od.dgl., das mit einer hohlen Randleiste an Führungsschienen geführt und von einem flexiblen Zugmittel gespannt gehalten wird, das mit seinen hinteren Enden auf Aufwickelrollen aufgewickelt ist und das über Einlenkmittel in die Randleiste geführt und dort von mindestens einem Federmittel gespannt gehalten wird, das an in Wirkrichtung des Federmittels frei beweglichen Umlenkrollen für das Zugmittel befestigt ist.The invention relates to a tensioning device for a flexible, flat covering means, such as blinds, awning cloth or the like, which with a hollow edge ledge on guide rails and by a flexible traction device is kept under tension with its rear ends wound on take-up reels is and that by means of steering means in the sidebar guided and there by at least one spring means is kept tense, the in the direction of action of Spring freely movable pulleys for the traction device is attached.

Es ist eine Spannvorrichtung dieser Art bekannt (EP-A-0 207 040), bei der die vorderen Enden des Zugmittels in der Randleiste befestigt und um Umlenkrollen geführt sind, die an den Enden einer Zugfeder befestigt sind. Bei dieser bekannten Vorrichtung steht das Zugmittel auch bei der Montage ständig unter Federspannung, was die Montage erschwert und die Gefahr von Unfällen in sich birgt.A tensioning device of this type is known (EP-A-0 207 040), with the front ends of the traction device in the edge strip attached and guided around pulleys attached to the Ends of a tension spring are attached. In this known device the traction device is constantly under during assembly Spring tension, which makes assembly difficult and the risk of accidents contains in itself.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Spannvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu verbessern und derart weiter auszugestalten, daß das Zugmittel ohne Federspannung leicht montiert werden kann und das Federmittel auch bei eingefahrenem, aufgerollten Abdeckmittel in seiner Federspannung leicht verändert werden kann.The object of the invention is to provide a clamping device at the beginning to improve and refine the type mentioned, that the traction device can be easily assembled without spring tension and the spring means even when the cover means is retracted and rolled up can be easily changed in its spring tension.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß die Einlenkmittel an der Randleiste angeordnet sind und daß das Zugmittel im Inneren der Randleiste über mindestens eine Montagespannrolle geführt ist, die in Längsrichtung der Randleiste verstellbar und an dieser feststellbar ist und daß das Federmittel mit seinem einen Ende an einem in Wirkrichtung des Federmittels verstellbaren Ankermittel befestigt ist.This object is achieved with the invention in that the steering means are arranged on the sidebar and that the traction device inside the sidebar guided over at least one assembly tension roller which is adjustable in the longitudinal direction of the sidebar at this can be determined and that the spring means with one end at one in the effective direction of the spring means adjustable anchor means attached is.

Diese Ausgestaltung hat den Vorteil, daß die Vor- und Endmontage der Spannvorrichtung sehr einfach ist, da das Zugmittel ohne Federspannung eingefädelt und an den Aufwickelrollen befestigt werden kann. Das Zugmittel wird erst nach dem Einlegen gespannt, wobei die normale Federspannung durch ein, vorzugsweise mittels eines Getriebes von außerhalb der Randleiste, verstellbares Ankermittel erzeugt wird, welches an mindestens ein Federmittel angeschlossen ist.This configuration has the advantage that the pre- and final assembly the tensioning device is very simple because the traction means without spring tension threaded and attached to the take-up reels can be. The traction device is only tensioned after insertion, the normal spring tension by a, preferably by means of a gear from outside Sidebar, adjustable anchor means is generated, which at least one spring means is connected.

Besonders zweckmäßig ist es, wenn im Inneren der Randleiste zwei Montagerollen vorgesehen sind, um welche das Zugmittel umgelenkt ist und die in ihrem gegenseitigen Abstand in Längsrichtung der Randleiste verstellbar und an der Randleiste feststellbar sind. Die beiden Montagespannrollen dienen gleichzeitig als Umlenkrollen, um den Längenausgleich des Zugmittels zusammen mit den an den Federn angeordneten Umlenkrollen nach Art eines vierfachen Rollenzuges zu verlängern. Hierbei können im Inneren der hohlen Randleiste zwei bewegliche Umlenkrollen und zwei Federmittel angeordnet sind. Durch die hierbei erreichte doppelte Umlenkung des Zugmittels, das im Inneren der Randleiste nicht befestigt wird, steht für den Längenausgleich praktisch der vierfache Weg zur Verfügung, wobei es die zwei Federn ermöglichen, die Spannung des Zugmittels auch bei größeren Längenänderungen immer etwa auf der gleichen Höhe zu halten.It is particularly useful if two inside the sidebar Assembly rollers are provided, around which the traction device is deflected is and in their mutual distance in the longitudinal direction of the Sidebar are adjustable and lockable on the sidebar. The two mounting idlers also serve as pulleys, around the length compensation of the traction device together with the the springs arranged deflection rollers in the manner of a fourfold Extend the roller train. This can inside the hollow Sidebar arranged two movable pulleys and two spring means are. Through the double redirection achieved here of the traction device, which is not fastened inside the edge strip is the fourfold way for length compensation available, the two springs allow the tension of the traction device always with larger length changes to keep at about the same height.

Eine besonders einfache Konstruktion ergibt sich, wenn die Montagespannrollen mit ihren Drehachsen in Gleitsteinen sitzen, die in einer C-förmigen Spannschiene gegeneinander verschiebbar und mit Stehbolzen und Klemmuttern festsetzbar sind. A particularly simple construction results when the mounting idlers sit with their axes of rotation in sliding blocks that Slidable against each other in a C-shaped tensioning rail can be fixed with stud bolts and locknuts.

In den Zeichnungen ist mit 10 eine Abdeckvorrichtung bezeichnet, die ein flexibles, flächiges Abdeckmittel 12, nämlich ein Markisentuch aufweist, das von einer Wickelwelle 13 abgewickelt wird und deren vorderer, freier Rand 12a in einer hohlen Randleiste 14 befestigt ist. Die beiden Seitenränder 18 und 19 der Markise 12 und die beiden Enden 14a und 14b der Randleiste 14 werden in seitlichen Führungsschienen geführt, wie dies in DE-A-40 36 892 näher erläutert, hier aber nicht näher dargestellt ist. In the drawings, 10 denotes a covering device, which is a flexible, flat covering means 12, namely has an awning fabric that is unwound from a winding shaft 13 and the front, free edge 12a in one hollow rim 14 is attached. The two margins 18 and 19 of the awning 12 and the two ends 14a and 14b of the Edge ledge 14 are guided in lateral guide rails, as explained in more detail in DE-A-40 36 892, but not here is shown in more detail.

Das Markisentuch 12 wird von einer Spannvorrichtung gespannt gehalten, die im Inneren 14c der Randleiste 14 angeordnet und in ihrer Gesamtheit mit 15 bezeichnet ist. Die Spannvorrichtung 15 hält ein flexibles Zugmittel 20 gespannt, das von einem dünnen Textilseil gebildet wird und deren beide Enden auf je einer Aufwickelrolle 26 auf- oder abgewickelt werden. Die Aufwickelrollen 26 sind an beiden Enden der Wickelwelle 13 angeordnet und mit dieser fest verbunden. Vor den Aufwickelrollen 26 befinden sich Leitrollen 45, welche das Zugmittel 20 auf die Aufwickelrollen 26 leiten.The awning fabric 12 is tensioned by a tensioning device held, which is arranged in the interior 14c of the edge strip 14 and is designated in its entirety by 15. The jig 15 holds a flexible traction means 20 that is formed by a thin textile rope and their both ends wound up or unwound on a take-up reel 26 will. The winding rollers 26 are at both ends the winding shaft 13 arranged and firmly connected to this. In front of the winding rollers 26 there are guide rollers 45, which guide the traction device 20 onto the winding rollers 26.

Das von den Aufwickelrollen 26 abgewickelte Zugmittel wird zunächst um äußere Umlenkrollen 24 geführt, die sich an den vorderen Enden der Führungsschienen befinden, wie dies in DE-A-40 36 892 näher erläutert ist. Diese äußeren Umlenkrollen 24 sind in Fig. 1 nur schematisch angedeutet. Von den äußeren Umlenkrollen 24 läuft das Zugmittel dann in den nicht dargestellten Führungsschienen zur Randleiste 14 zurück, in die es über Einlenkmittel 46 ins Innere 14c der hohlen Randleiste 14 eingeleitet wird. Diese Einlenkmittel 46 sind bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel Einlenkrollen, die etwa parallel zur Markisentuchebene angeordnet sind. Anstelle dieser Rollen können aber auch Gleitschienen vorgesehen sein.The traction means unwound from the take-up rollers 26 first led to outer pulleys 24, which are located on the front ends of the guide rails are located as in DE-A-40 36 892 is explained in more detail. These outer pulleys 24 are only indicated schematically in FIG. 1. From the outside The pulleys then do not run in the traction mechanism illustrated guide rails back to the edge bar 14, in which it via guide means 46 into the interior 14c of the hollow edge strip 14 is initiated. These steering means 46 are at the illustrated embodiment, steering rollers that are arranged approximately parallel to the awning fabric level. Instead of these rollers can also be provided with slide rails be.

Im Inneren 14c der Randleiste 14 läuft das Zugmittel 20 zunächst über eine Montagespannrolle 47a, wo es umgelenkt wird und zu der rechten Spannrolle 34a gelangt. Dort wird das Zugmittel wiederum um 180° umgelenkt und gelangt zur linken Spannrolle 34b, wo es umgelenkt und zu der linken Montagespannrolle 47b geführt wird, von wo aus es wieder zu der linken Einlenkrolle 46 geführt wird.The traction means 20 initially runs in the interior 14c of the edge strip 14 via a mounting idler 47a where it is redirected and comes to the right idler 34a. There will the traction device in turn deflected by 180 ° and arrives at left idler 34b where it is redirected and to the left Assembly idler 47b is guided from where it is again is guided to the left steering roller 46.

Die beiden Spannrollen 34a und 34b sind frei beweglich an den äußeren Enden der Federmittel 36a und 36b befestigt, von denen das rechte Federmittel 36a am Stirnende der Randleiste 14 festgelegt ist. Das hintere Ende des linken Federmittels 36b jedoch ist in einem Ankermittel 32, nämlich einem in der Randleiste 14 gleitend gelagerten Ankerblock verankert. Der Ankerblock 32 hat eine sich in dessen Längsrichtung erstreckende Bohrung 39, die von einer langgestreckten Gewindespindel 40 durchsetzt wird. Das linke, äußere Ende der Gewindespindel 40 ist in einem Widerlagerblock 30 gelagert, der am linken Stirnende der Randleiste 14 befestigt ist und ein Winkelgetriebe beherbergt, mit dem die Gewindespindel 40 von außerhalb der Randleiste 14 gedreht werden kann.The two tensioning rollers 34a and 34b are freely movable on attached to the outer ends of the spring means 36a and 36b, of which the right spring means 36a at the front end of the edge strip 14 is set. The rear end of the left spring means 36b, however, is in an anchor means 32, namely one Anchored in the edge bar 14 sliding block. The anchor block 32 has one extending in its longitudinal direction Bore 39 made by an elongated lead screw 40 is enforced. The left outer end of the lead screw 40 is mounted in an abutment block 30 which on left end of the skirt 14 is attached and an angular gear houses with which the threaded spindle 40 of can be rotated outside the edge bar 14.

Man erkennt, daß das linke Federmittel 36b, das im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel eine Zugfeder ist, gespannt wird, wenn der Ankerblock 32 durch Drehen der Gewindespindel 40 in Richtung des Pfeiles 48 nach links gezogen wird. Die auf das Zugmittel 20 über die Spannrollen 34b und 34a ausgeübte Spannkraft wird dann vergrößert.It can be seen that the left spring means 36b, that in the illustrated Embodiment is a tension spring, is tensioned when the armature block 32 by turning the threaded spindle 40 in the direction arrow 48 is pulled to the left. The on the traction device 20 clamping force exerted on the tensioning rollers 34b and 34a is then enlarged.

Wie aus Fig. 3 hervorgeht, sind die beiden Montagespannrollen 47a und 47b mit ihren vertikalen Drehachsen 49 in einer C-förmigen Spannschiene 50 in ihrem gegenseitigen Abstand a verstellbar befestigt. Zu diesem Zweck sitzt jede Drehachse in einem Gleitstein 51, der an seiner Unterseite mit einem Stehbolzen 52 versehen ist. Der Stehbolzen 52 durchgreift einen Schlitz 53 im Steg 54 der Spannschiene 50. Auf den Stehbolzen 52 ist eine Klemmutter 55 aufgeschraubt, mit der der Gleitstein 51 in der C-förmigen Spannschiene 50 festgesetzt werden kann.3, the two mounting idlers 47a and 47b with their vertical axes of rotation 49 in a C-shaped Clamping rail 50 adjustable in their mutual distance a attached. For this purpose, each axis of rotation sits in one Sliding block 51, which on its underside with a stud 52 is provided. The stud bolt 52 passes through a slot 53 in the web 54 of the tensioning rail 50. On the stud 52 is a clamping nut 55 is screwed on, with which the sliding block 51 can be fixed in the C-shaped clamping rail 50.

Beim Einfädeln des Zugmittels 20 in die Randleiste 14 sitzen die Montagespannrollen 47a und 47b zunächst lose im Schlitz 53. Nach dem Befestigen der Enden des Zugmittels 20 an den Aufwickelrollen 26 werden dann die beiden Montagespannrollen 47a und 47b gegeneinander geschoben, so daß sich der gegenseitige Abstand a verkleinert und die Zugfedern 36a und 36b gespannt werden. Dann werden die Montagespannrollen 47 mit Hilfe der Klemmuttern 55 festgesetzt. Die Spannung der Zugfedern 36a und 36b kann dann mit Hilfe der Spannvorrichtung 15 genau eingestellt und auch während des Betriebes noch verstellt werden. Hierzu wird ein Werkzeug in das Winkelgetriebe im Widerlagerblock 30 eingeführt und die Spindelmutter 40 gedreht.When threading the traction device 20 sit in the edge bar 14 the mounting idlers 47a and 47b initially loose in the slot 53. After attaching the ends of the traction device 20 to the Winding rollers 26 then become the two mounting idlers 47a and 47b pushed against each other, so that the mutual Distance a is reduced and the tension springs 36a and 36b be excited. Then the assembly idlers 47 with Help the clamping nuts 55 set. The tension of the tension springs 36a and 36b can then with the help of the clamping device 15 precisely set and still during operation be adjusted.
