Abstract

A device for automatically closing a closure installation (such as a window or a door) includes a drive device, a traction mechanism, a spring, an actuating device and a locking device. The closure installation is mounted in a frame supported by a building. The traction mechanism is located between the closure installation and the frame, and is driven by the drive device to close the closure installation. The spring is tensioned when the closure installation is placed in the open position, and supplies the energy to the drive device which is required to close the closure installation. The actuating device is used to initially place the closure installation in the open position. The actuating device tensions the spring when the closure installation is placed in the open position. The locking device is initially released to permit the closure installation to be placed in the open position. After the closure installation is closed, the locking device automatically locks the closure installation to the frame in the closed position.

Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Vorrichtung zum selbsttätigen Schließen Fenstern, Türen, Klappen, Blenden oder dergleichen nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruchs.The invention is based on a device for automatic Close windows, doors, flaps, panels or the like according to the genus of the main claim.

Durch die deutsche Patentschrift 127 236 ist eine gattungsgemäße Fensterschließvorrichtung bekannt, bei der ein über eine waagerechte Achse schwenkbares Fenster über einen entsprechenden Fensterschließer betätigbar ist, wobei in Schließstellung ein am Fensterflügel befestigter Schließhaken zur Verriegelung in eine am Fensterrahmen angeordnete Öse greift, um dann zum Öffnen des Flügels über eine am Schließhaken angreifende Schnur entriegelt zu werden.The German patent specification 127 236 is one Generic window closing device known in which a window pivotable about a horizontal axis over a corresponding window closer can be operated, wherein in Locking position a locking hook attached to the window sash for locking in an eyelet arranged on the window frame reaches, then to open the wing via an Cord engaging striker to be unlocked.

Durch die deutsche Offenlegungsschrift 25 43 602 ist eine Schließvorrichtung bekannt, bei der der Fensterflügel für sein automatisches Schließen ebenfalls um eine waagerechte Achse schwenkbar ist, allerdings ohne daß das Fenster in seiner Schließlage verriegelt wird.Through the German Offenlegungsschrift 25 43 602 is one Closing device known to be in the case of the window sash automatic closing also around a horizontal axis is pivotable, but without the window in its Locking position is locked.

Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung zum selbsttätigen Schließen zu erhalten, die einfach funktioniert, im Bezug auf Schließdauer und Dämpfung einstellbar ist und eine zusätzliche Einbruchssicherheit aufweist.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im Hauptanspruch beschriebene Vorrichtung gelöst. Diese erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß neben der Verriegelungseinrichtung die übliche willkürlich betätigbare Verschlußeinrichtung vorhanden ist, die über einen Handgriff betätigt wird, so daß nach Öffnen dieses Verschlußmittels und Schrägstellung des Fensterflügels und dessen automatischen Schließen durch die Vorrichtung wieder eine Verriegelung beispielsweise gegen Einbruch gegeben ist. Durch die Bestimmbarkeit des Beginns der Schließbewegung kann vorteilhafterweise je nach Jahreszeit eine unterschiedliche Einstellung vorgenommen werden, es kann aber auch je nach Raumgröße und angestrebter Lüftungsqualität je nach Wunsch eine unterschiedliche Öffnungsdauer erzielt werden. Durch die Änderbarkeit der Kraft der Feder für den Schließvorgang wird vor allem erreicht, daß eine gegebene Vorrichtung für verschiedene Fenstergrößen verwendbar und entsprechend lieferbar ist, wobei durch das Einstellen der Federkraft bei leichteren Fenstern verhindert wird, daß diese ungewünscht hart beim Schließen aufschlagen und andererseits wird erreicht, daß bei schweren Fenstern die Federkraft noch ausreichend ist, die Fenster wirklich zu schließen, d.h. über die Kraft ist aufgrund des proportionalen Zusammenhangs die Beschleunigung einstellbar, die die Verschlußeinrichtung durch das Zugmittel beim Schließvorgang erfährt. Je kleiner die Kraft, um so kleiner ist die Beschleunigung und um so langsamer schließt sich die Verschlußeinrichtung. Damit kann über die Kraft der Feder, die über das Zugmittel auf die Verschlußeinrichtung übertragen wird, die Geschwindigkeit des Schließvorgangs eingestellt werden.In contrast, the invention has for its object to obtain a device for automatic closing, which works simply, is adjustable in terms of closing time and damping and has additional security against burglary.
This object is achieved by the device described in the main claim. This device according to the invention has the advantage that, in addition to the locking device, the usual arbitrarily operable locking device is present, which is actuated by a handle, so that after opening this locking means and inclination of the window sash and its automatic closing by the device again a lock, for example, against burglary given is. Because the start of the closing movement can be determined, a different setting can advantageously be made depending on the season, but depending on the size of the room and the desired ventilation quality, a different opening duration can also be achieved if desired. The changeability of the force of the spring for the closing process ensures, above all, that a given device can be used for different window sizes and can be supplied accordingly, whereby the setting of the spring force in the case of lighter windows prevents them from opening undesirably hard when closing and on the other hand achieved that with heavy windows, the spring force is still sufficient to really close the windows, ie the acceleration, which the locking device experiences during the closing process due to the proportional relationship, can be adjusted via the force. The smaller the force, the smaller the acceleration and the slower the closure device closes. The speed of the closing process can thus be adjusted via the force of the spring, which is transmitted to the closing device via the traction means.

Vorteilhafterweise ist die Vorrichtung relativ einfach aufgebaut und besteht nur aus einigen wenigen Teilen. Ihre Herstellung, sowie ihre Montage sind daher einfach und kostengünstig durchzuführen. Es handelt sich in der Grundausführung um eine rein mechanische Vorrichtung, die somit keine elektrische Energie verbraucht. Die Einsatzmöglichkeiten der Schließvorrichtung sind vielseitig. Sie kann beispielsweise an Fenstern, Türen, Klappen, Blenden oder Schiebern angeordnet werden. Ferner ist die Schließvorrichtung in ihrer Handhabung einfach. Durch das Öffnen des Fensters wird die an der Welle angeordnete Feder ausgelenkt. Die daraus resultierende Federkraft sorgt dafür, daß sich das Fenster automatisch in der an der Einstellvorrichtung gewählten Zeit wieder schließt. Auf diese Weise kann ausgeschlossen werden, daß ein einmal geöffnetes Fenster über längere Zeit ungewollt geöffnet bleibt und somit Einbrechern eine Möglichkeit gibt, einzudringen oder bei schlechter Witterung kalte Luft, Regen oder Schnee eindringen kann. Insbesondere bei beheizten Räumen bewirkt ein über längere Zeit ungewollt geöffnetes Fenster das Einströmen von kalter Luft, was eine durch einen Thermostat im Inneren des Raums gesteuerte Heizung veranlaßt, stärker zu heizen. Vorteilhafterweise wird das Fenster durch die erfindungsgemäße Schließvorrichtung nach einer vorgewählten Zeit automatisch geschlossen, so daß der Energieverbrauch der Heizung minimiert werden kann, wodurch zum einen die Heizkosten gesenkt werden und zum anderen die Umwelt geschont wird. The device is advantageously of relatively simple construction and consists of only a few parts. Your manufacture, and their assembly are therefore simple and inexpensive perform.

By opening the window, the on the shaft arranged spring deflected. The resulting one Spring force ensures that the window is automatically in the on the setting device closes again. On this way it can be excluded that once opened window remains open unintentionally for a long time and thus gives burglars a chance to enter or in bad weather, cold air, rain or snow can penetrate. Especially in heated rooms a window opened unintentionally for a long time Inflow of cold air, what a through a thermostat Controlled heating inside the room causes more to heat. The window is advantageously through the Locking device according to the invention after a preselected Time closes automatically so that the energy consumption of the Heating can be minimized, which on the one hand Heating costs are reduced and secondly the environment is spared.

Beschreibung des AusführungsbeispielsDescription of the embodiment

Fig. 1 zeigt ein um eine horizontale Achse 2 schwenkbares Fenster 1, das durch eine am Fenster 1 und am Fensterrahmen 4 angelenkte Strebe 3 in einer Kippstellung gehalten wird. Über einen Haken 5 ist das Zugseil 6 am Fensterrahmen 4 befestigt und mit der am Fenster angeordneten Schließvorrichtung 7 verbunden. Mit Hilfe einer Schnur 8 kann das Fenster geöffnet und der sich in der Schließvorrichtung 7 befindliche in dieser Darstellung nicht erkennbare Riegel entriegelt werden.Fig. 1 shows a pivotable about a horizontal axis 2 Window 1 through one on window 1 and on the window frame 4 articulated strut 3 is held in a tilt position. about a hook 5, the pull rope 6 is attached to the window frame 4 and with the closing device 7 arranged at the window connected. With the help of a cord 8 the window can be opened and the one in the locking device 7 is in this Unrecognizable latches are unlocked.

Fig. 2 zeigt die Schließvorrichtung 7 mit Zugseil 6 und Schnur 8 von oben. In der Schließvorrichtung ist das Zugseil 6 über eine Umlenkrolle 11 geführt und mit seinem einen Ende auf einen Wickelteller 9 aufgewickelt, der seinerseits an eine Feder 10 angelenkt ist. Durch das Öffnen des Fensters wird ein Teil des Zugseils 6 vom Wickelteller 9 freigegeben. Dabei dreht sich der Wickelteller 9, wodurch die Feder 10 ausgelenkt wird. Die daraus resultierende Federkraft wirkt auf den Wickelteller 9 und veranlaßt diesen, sich in die entgegengesetzte Richtung zu drehen, so daß das Zugseil 6 sich auf den Wickelteller 9 erneut aufwickelt. Damit zwischen Federkraft und freigegebenem Zugseil ein nahezu linearer Zusammenhang besteht, ist die Feder in der Ausgangsstellung des geschlossenen Fensters vorgespannt. Zwischen Feder und Wickelteller ist eine von außen einstellbare Bremse 16 angeordnet, über die die Beschleunigung mit der die Feder den Wickelteller antreibt, einstellbar ist. Von dieser Beschleunigung hängt ab, wie schnell sich das Fenster schließt. Da die Kraft über das Zugseil auch auf die Umlenkrolle 11 übertragen wird, ist diese gut gelagert und robust ausgeführt. Um Verluste zu minimieren, ist die Umlenkrolle relativ groß, und weist ein gewisses Eigengewicht auf. An dem dem Fenster zugewandten Ende des Zugseils ist ein Ring angeordnet, der das Einziehen des ausgehängten Zugseils in die Schließvorrichtung verhindert. Beim Schließen des Fensters 1 wird ein Riegel 12 über eine Feder 13 in eine das Fenster verriegelnde Stellung gedrückt. Durch Ziehen an der über eine Umlenkrolle 17 geführte Schnur 8 wird der Riegel 12 freigegeben und das Fenster kann geöffnet werden. Die Federkraft ist so groß, daß eine einwandfreie Einrastung des Riegels am Rahmen gewährleistet ist. Es ist ausreichend, wenn die Federkraft die Gewichtskraft des Riegels 12 und der Schnur 8 um einen geringen Betrag übersteigt. Zur Befestigung des die Schließvorrichtung umgebenden Gehäuses 14 am Fenster sind an dem Gehäuse kreisrunde Ausnehmungen 15 vorgesehen. Da auf die Schließvorrichtung und damit auch auf das Gehäuse relativ hohe Kräfte wirken, muß die Befestigung am Fenster entsprechend stabil ausgeführt sein. Bei den Fig. 2 entnehmbaren Positionen der Ausnehmungen ist dies gewährleistet.Fig. 2 shows the locking device 7 with pull rope 6 and cord 8 from above. In the locking device, the pull rope 6 is over a Deflection roller 11 out and with one end on one Winding plate 9 wound, which in turn is connected to a spring 10 is articulated. Opening the window will make part of the Pull rope 6 released from the winding plate 9. The turns Winding plate 9, whereby the spring 10 is deflected. The the resulting spring force acts on the winding plate 9 and causes it to move in the opposite direction turn so that the pull rope 6 on the winding plate 9 again wound up. So that between spring force and released Traction rope is an almost linear relationship, is the Spring in the starting position of the closed window biased. Between spring and changing plate is one of externally adjustable brake 16 is arranged, via which the Acceleration with which the spring drives the winding plate, is adjustable. How fast depends on this acceleration the window closes. Because the force on the pull rope too the guide roller 11 is transferred, it is well stored and robust design. To minimize losses, that is Deflection roller relatively large, and has a certain weight on. At the end of the pull rope facing the window is a Ring arranged, the retraction of the unhitched pull rope prevented in the locking device. When closing the Window 1 is a bolt 12 via a spring 13 in a Window locking position pressed. By pulling on the The cord 12 is guided over a deflection roller 17 released and the window can be opened. The The spring force is so great that the Latch on the frame is guaranteed. It is sufficient if the spring force the weight of the bar 12 and the cord 8 by a small amount. To attach the Closing device surrounding housing 14 are at the window circular recesses 15 are provided on the housing. There on the locking device and thus also on the housing relatively high forces must be attached to the window be designed accordingly stable. 2 removable positions of the recesses is this guaranteed.

Alle in der Beschreibung, den nachfolgenden Ansprüchen und der Zeichnung dargestellten Merkmale können sowohl einzeln als auch in beliebiger Kombination miteinander erfindungswesentlich sein.All in the description, the following claims and The features shown in the drawing can be both individually as well as in any combination with each other be essential to the invention.
