Description

Technisches GebietTechnical area

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Torkonstruktion für Sammelgaragen wie beispielsweise öffentliche oder private Tiefgaragen nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The present invention relates to a gate construction for collective garages such as public or private underground garages according to the preamble of claim 1.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

An Torkonstruktionen für Sammelgaragen werden sowohl seitens der Bauherren als auch durch öffentliche Vorschriften hohe Anforderungen gestellt. Diese Torkonstruktionen, die meist als Kipptore oder Sektionaltore ausgeführt sind, müssen für eine sehr häufige Betätigung ausgelegt sein, ein hohes Sicherheitsniveau aufweisen und geringe Abzugsmaße besitzen bzw. bei den vorgegebenen Baulichkeiten eine möglichst große Durchfahrtsöffnung ermöglichen. Darüber hinaus sollen die Torkonstruktionen beim Öffnen bzw. Schließen möglichst wenig aus der Gebäudelinie ausschwenken, sodass Fahrzeuge sehr nahe an die Torkonstruktion heranfahren können und während des Öffnungs- bzw. Schließvorgangs den fließenden Verkehr möglichst wenig behindern.High demands are placed on door construction for collective garages on the part of the builders as well as by public regulations. These door constructions, which are usually designed as overhead doors or sectional doors, must be designed for a very frequent operation, have a high level of security and have low deductions or allow for the given buildings as large as possible passage opening. In addition, the gate constructions when opening or closing should swing as little as possible out of the building line, so that vehicles can approach very close to the gate construction and hinder the flow of traffic as little as possible during the opening or closing process.

Eine bewährte Kipptorkonstruktion nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 ist beispielsweise aus dem Prospekt "Kipptore für Sammelgaragen" der Anmelderin bekannt. Angesichts des insbesondere in Ballungsräumen immer enger werdenden Bauraumes sowie der zunehmenden Fahrzeugabmessungen besteht jedoch weiterhin ein Bedarf, den durch die Torkonstruktion insbesondere im geöffneten Zustand des Tors eingenommenen Raum weiter zu minimieren.A proven Kipptorkonstruktion according to the preamble of claim 1 is known for example from the brochure "tilting gates for collective garages" of the Applicant. However, in view of the ever-narrower installation space, particularly in metropolitan areas, and the increasing vehicle dimensions, there is still a need to further minimize the space occupied by the door construction, particularly in the open state of the door.

Darüber hinaus offenbart auch die DE 196 04 683 A1 eine gattungsgemäße Torkonstruktion. Diese hat sich jedoch insbesondere hinsichtlich ihrer vergleichsweise großen Bauhöhe im Bereich der oberen Laufschiene als zu sperrig erwiesen.In addition, also reveals the DE 196 04 683 A1 a generic goal construction. However, this has changed especially in terms of their comparatively large height in the upper rail proved to be too bulky.

Als weiterer Stand der Technik ist das Dokument GB 2 172 041 A bekannt. Darin wird ein Garagentor offenbart, das unterstützt durch eine über eine Umlenkrolle geführte Feder geöffnet wird, wobei die Umlenkrolle am Tor angebracht ist.Another prior art is the document GB 2 172 041 A known. Therein a garage door is disclosed, which is opened by a spring guided by a guide roller, wherein the guide roller is attached to the gate.

Darstellung-der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Torkonstruktion für Sammelgaragen der eingangs genannten Art bereitzustellen, die insbesondere im geöffneten Zustand eine vergrößerte lichte Durchfahrtshöhe bzw. -breite ermöglicht.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a gate construction for collective garages of the type mentioned, which allows in particular in the open state an increased clear passage height or width.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung durch eine Torkonstruktion mit den Merkmalen von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved according to the present invention by a gate construction with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt der Gedanke zugrunde, die bekannten Torkonstruktionen derart umzugestalten, dass Bauteile, die eine besonders große Höhe bzw. Breite besitzen, an Stellen angeordnet werden, an denen sie die lichte Durchfahrtsöffnung der Torkonstruktion weniger beeinträchtigen. Dabei haben die Erfinder insbesondere die mindestens eine Umlenkrolle der Torkonstruktion als häufig störendes Bauteil identifiziert. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist es erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass die mindestens zwei Umlenkrollen in vollständiger Abkehr vom Stand der Technik zwischen den zumindest zwei Laufschienen angeordnet sind.The present invention is based on the idea of reshaping the known door structures in such a way that components which have a particularly high height or width are arranged at locations where they less impair the clear passage opening of the door construction. In this case, the inventors have identified in particular the at least one deflection roller of the door construction as a frequently disturbing component. Against this background, it is inventively provided that the at least two pulleys are arranged in complete departure from the prior art between the at least two rails.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung wird ermöglicht, dass die Laufschienen der Torkonstruktion in einem größeren Abstand voneinander vorgesehen werden können, sodass größere Tore mit entsprechend größeren, lichten Durchgangsabmessungen eingesetzt werden können. Gleichzeitig behält das Tor seine einfache Konstruktion.The inventive design makes it possible that the rails of the door construction can be provided at a greater distance from each other, so that larger gates with correspondingly larger, clear passage dimensions can be used. At the same time the gate retains its simple construction.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die mindestens zwei Umlenkrollen abschnittsweise oberhalb der Lauffläche der Laufschienen gelegen sind. Durch diese Maßnahme wird insbesondere auch die lichte Durchfahrtshöhe des Tors beträchtlich erhöht, und zwar etwa um denjenigen Betrag, um welchen die Umlenkrollen über die Lauffläche der Laufschienen hinausreichen.According to the invention it is provided that the at least two deflection rollers are located in sections above the running surface of the rails. By this measure, in particular, the clear passage height of the door is considerably increased, and about to that amount by which the pulleys extend beyond the running surface of the rails.

Durch die oben genannten Maßnahmen gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung werden obere Laufrollen und Umlenkrollen der Torkonstruktion deutlich enger zusammengerückt. Um diese kompakte Bauweise zu ermöglichen, ist gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung vorgesehen, dass die mindestens zwei oberen Laufrollen an dem Torflügel jeweils mittels eines gekrümmten Auslegers angebracht sind, der bevorzugt im Wesentlichen L-förmig oder U-förmig ist. Zusätzlich ist ferner vorgesehen, dass die mindestens eine Umlenkrolle an einer Laufschiene mittels eines gekrümmten Auslegers angebracht ist, der bevorzugt ebenfalls im Wesentlichen L-förmig oder U-förmig ist. Auf diese Weise kann je eine obere Laufrolle und eine Umlenkrolle in verschränkter Weise angeordnet werden, was im Vergleich zum Stand der Technik eine extrem kompakte Lösung darstellt.By the above measures according to the present invention, upper rollers and pulleys of Torkonstruktion be brought together much narrower. To enable this compact design, it is provided according to the present invention that the at least two upper rollers are mounted on the gate each by means of a curved cantilever, which is preferably substantially L-shaped or U-shaped. In addition, it is further provided that the at least one deflection roller is attached to a running rail by means of a curved cantilever, which is preferably also substantially L-shaped or U-shaped. In this way, each an upper roller and a guide roller are arranged in an entangled manner, which is an extremely compact solution compared to the prior art.

Gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung sind die mindestens zwei Zugelemente an ihrem dem Torflügel gegenüberliegenden Ende mittels eines Kraftspeichers, insbesondere einer Spiralfedertrommel gelagert. Hierdurch wird ermöglicht, dass zum Öffnen und Schließen des Torflügels lediglich ein vergleichsweise kleiner Antrieb erforderlich ist, da der Kraftspeicher einen Gewichtsausgleich für das Eigengewicht des Torflügels bereitstellt. Dabei ist es besonders bevorzugt, dass der mindestens eine Kraftspeicher im Arbeitsbereich der Torkonstruktion zwischen der geschlossenen und offenen Stellung des Torflügels eine Federkonstante von höchstens 0,3 N/cm, bevorzugt von 0,1 bis 0,2 N/cm aufweist. So haben die Erfinder festgestellt, dass sich bei üblichen Torkonstruktionen von Sammelgaragen durch diese begrenzte Federkonstante ein optimaler Kompromiss zwischen einem ausgewogenen Gewichtsausgleich sowie kompakten Kraftspeichern und Antrieben ergibt.According to the present invention, the at least two tension elements are mounted at their end opposite the gate leaf by means of an energy store, in particular a spiral spring drum. This makes it possible that only a comparatively small drive is required to open and close the door leaf, since the energy storage provides weight compensation for the weight of the door leaf. It is particularly preferred that the at least one energy storage in the working area of the door construction between the closed and open position of the door leaf a spring constant of at most 0.3 N / cm, preferably from 0.1 to 0.2 N / cm. Thus, the inventors have found that in conventional gate designs of collective garages by this limited spring constant, an optimal compromise between a balanced weight balance and compact force accumulators and drives results.

Obgleich die erfindungsgemäße Torkonstruktion auch einen ausschwenkenden Torflügel aufweisen kann, ist gemäß einer Weiterbildung der vorliegenden Erfindung vorgesehen, dass die Torkonstruktion zumindest zwei untere Laufrollen aufweist, die drehbar an dem Torflügel angebracht und in der geschlossenen Stellung des Torflügels in dessen unterem Bereich angeordnet sind, und zumindest zwei sich im Wesentlichen vertikal erstreckende Laufschienen mit je einer Lauffläche aufweist, an welcher jeweils eine untere Laufrolle während eines Verschwenkens des Torflügels läuft. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, dass der Torflügel der Torkonstruktion kaum oder überhaupt nicht nach außen aus der Ebene der Torkonstruktion herausragt, sodass ankommende Fahrzeuge sehr nahe an die noch geschlossene Torkonstruktion heranfahren können, was insbesondere in innerstädtischen Bereichen erforderlich ist. Dabei ist es besonders bevorzugt, dass die mindestens zwei unteren Laufrollen von der Schwerachse des Tores beabstandet und bevorzugt auf der Innenseite des Tores angeordnet sind. Hierdurch wird ermöglicht, dass der Torflügel in seiner geöffneten Stellung in eine vollständig horizontale Position gefahren werden kann, in welcher der Torflügel einen minimalen Platzbedarf besitzt.Although the gate construction according to the invention can also have an outwardly swinging gate, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the gate construction has at least two lower rollers which are rotatably mounted on the gate and are arranged in the closed position of the gate in its lower region, and at least two substantially vertically extending rails each having a tread on which runs in each case a lower roller during a pivoting of the door leaf. This ensures that the gate of the gate construction barely or not at all protrudes outward from the plane of the gate construction, so that incoming vehicles can approach very close to the still closed gate construction, which is particularly necessary in inner-city areas. It is particularly preferred that the at least two lower rollers spaced from the heavy axis of the door and are preferably arranged on the inside of the door. This makes it possible that the gate can be moved in its open position in a fully horizontal position in which the gate has a minimal footprint.

Die sich im Wesentlichen vertikal erstreckende Laufschienen der Torkonstruktion können prinzipiell eine beliebige Gestalt besitzen. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung ist jedoch bevorzugt, diese Laufschienen derart auszugestalten, dass sich sowohl ein günstiger Gewichtsausgleich als auch ein geringer Raumbedarf beim Verschwenken des Tores ergibt. Zu diesem Zweck ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass die sich im Wesentlichen vertikal erstreckenden Laufschienen einen unteren Abschnitt aufweisen, der gegenüber der Vertikalen um bis zu 10° geneigt ist, und/oder einen oberen Abschnitt aufweisen, der gekrümmt ist.The essentially vertically extending rails of the door construction can in principle have any shape. In the context of the present invention, however, it is preferable to design these rails in such a way that results in both a favorable weight balance and a small space requirement when pivoting the door. For this purpose, the invention provides that the substantially vertically extending rails a lower Having portion which is inclined relative to the vertical by up to 10 °, and / or have an upper portion which is curved.

Im Hinblick auf eine ausreichende Betriebssicherheit der Torkonstruktion beim Schließen des Tores ist es im Rahmen der Erfindung vorteilhaft, wenn der Torflügel auf seiner Unterseite, die in der geschlossenen Stellung nach unten gewandt ist, ein Sicherheitselement aufweist, das einen ausmittig in Bezug auf das Sicherheitselement angeordneten Kontaktabschnitt besitzt. Hierdurch wird ermöglicht, dass der Schließvorgang des Tores direkt unterbrochen oder umgekehrt werden kann, sobald das Sicherheitselement mit seinem Kontaktabschnitt an ein Hindernis wie beispielsweise ein einfahrendes Fahrzeug oder eine Person trifft. Dabei ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn der Kontaktabschnitt durch eine sich in Torbreitenrichtung entlang des Sicherheitselements erstreckende Kammer gebildet ist.With regard to a sufficient reliability of the gate construction when closing the gate, it is advantageous in the context of the invention, when the gate has on its underside, which faces downwards in the closed position, a security element, which arranged an outwardly with respect to the security element Owns contact section. This makes it possible that the closing operation of the door can be interrupted directly or vice versa, as soon as the security element meets with its contact portion of an obstacle such as a retracting vehicle or a person. It is particularly advantageous if the contact portion is formed by a extending in Torbreitenrichtung along the security element chamber.

Figuren 1 und 2 zeigen eine schematische Seitenansicht bzw. Innenansicht einer Torkonstruktion 1 als bevorzugte Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung. Die Torkonstruktion 1 umfasst ein Schwenktor 2, das von einer geschlossenen Stellung (vgl. links in Fig. 1) in eine offene Stellung (vgl. oben in Fig. 1) verschwenkbar ist. Nachfolgend verwendete Begriffe wie "oben", "unten" und dergleichen beziehen sich dabei auf die in Fig. 1 gezeigte, geschlossene Stellung des Torflügels 2. FIGS. 1 and 2 show a schematic side view and interior view of a gate construction 1 as a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

As used herein, terms such as "top", "bottom", and the like, refer to those in U.S. Pat Fig. 1 shown, closed position of the gate 2.

Im oberen Bereich des Torflügels 2 sind zwei obere Laufrollen 4 vorgesehen, die drehbar an dem Torflügel 2 angebracht sind und während eines Verschwenkens des Torflügels jeweils auf einer sich im Wesentlichen horizontal erstreckenden Laufschiene 6 bzw. deren Lauffläche 6' laufen.In the upper region of the door leaf 2, two upper rollers 4 are provided, which are rotatably mounted on the door leaf 2 and during a pivoting of the door leaf in each case on a substantially horizontally extending track rail 6 and their tread 6 'run.

Ferner umfasst die Torkonstruktion 1 ein mit dem Torflügel 2 verbundenes Zugseil 8, welches den Torflügel in Richtung der offenen Stellung beaufschlagt. In der vorliegenden Ausführungsform ist das Zugseil 8 im unteren Bereich des Torflügels 2 mit diesem verbunden, und zwar genauer gesagt im Bereich einer unteren Laufrolle 16, die später noch ausführlicher beschrieben wird.Furthermore, the door construction 1 comprises a pull cable 8 which is connected to the door leaf 2 and acts on the door leaf in the direction of the open position. In the present embodiment, the traction cable 8 is connected in the lower portion of the gate 2 with this, more specifically in the region of a lower roller 16, which will be described later in more detail.

Mit anderen Worten sind die beiden Umlenkrollen 10 der vorliegenden Ausführungsform, wie in Fig. 2 gezeigt, zwischen den beiden Laufschienen 6 der Torkonstruktion angeordnet, und nicht auf deren Außenseite.Furthermore, the door construction 1 comprises a deflection roller 10, along which the traction cable 8 is guided during the pivoting of the door. The arrangement of the guide roller 10 is most clearly in Fig. 3 to recognize the one detail view Fig. 2 shows. The guide roller 10 is arranged in the context of the present invention on a door leaf 2 facing side of the respective track rail 6. With others Words are the two pulleys 10 of the present embodiment, as in Fig. 2 shown, between the two rails 6 of the gate construction arranged, and not on the outside thereof.

Darüber hinaus ist die Umlenkrolle 10 derart vorgesehen, dass sie überwiegend oberhalb der Lauffläche 6' der Laufschiene 6 gelegen ist, wobei die Umlenkrolle 10 in der vorliegenden Ausführungsform im Wesentlichen bündig mit der Oberkante der Laufschiene 6 abschließt.In addition, the guide roller 10 is provided such that it is located predominantly above the running surface 6 'of the running rail 6, wherein the guide roller 10 in the present embodiment is substantially flush with the upper edge of the running rail 6.

Um diese kompakte Bauweise auf einfache Weise zu ermöglichen, sind die Umlenkrollen 10 der Torkonstruktion 1 an der Laufschiene 6 mittels eines gekrümmten Auslegers 14 angebracht, der in der vorliegenden Ausführungsform im Wesentlichen L-förmig ausgebildet ist. Gleichermaßen ist auch die zugehörige obere Laufrolle 4 des Torflügels 2 mittels eines gekrümmten Auslegers 12 an dem Torflügel angebracht, der bevorzugt ebenfalls im Wesentlichen L-förmig ist. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine "verschränkte" Bauweise, die deutlich weniger Raum einnimmt als bisherige Bauweisen.In order to enable this compact design in a simple manner, the guide rollers 10 of the gate construction 1 are mounted on the running rail 6 by means of a curved cantilever 14, which is formed in the present embodiment is substantially L-shaped. Similarly, the associated upper roller 4 of the door leaf 2 is attached by means of a curved arm 12 to the door leaf, which is preferably also substantially L-shaped. This results in an "entangled" construction that occupies significantly less space than previous designs.

Darüber hinaus weist die Torkonstruktion 1 einen nicht näher gezeigten Antrieb auf, um den Torflügel 2 selbsttätig von der geschlossenen in die offene Stellung und umgekehrt zu fahren. Hierbei kann es sich beispielsweise um einen herkömmlichen Elektromotor handeln, der über ein Zugglied und ggf. ein Getriebe (ebenfalls nicht gezeigt) mit dem Torflügel 2 verbunden ist.In addition, the door construction 1 has a drive not shown in detail to drive the door leaf 2 automatically from the closed to the open position and vice versa. This may be, for example, a conventional electric motor, which is connected via a tension member and possibly a transmission (also not shown) with the gate 2.

Das Zugseil 8 dient zu einem Gewichtsausgleich des Torflügels 2 während der Verschwenkbewegung von der geschlossenen in die offen Stellung und umgekehrt, und ist zu diesem Zweck an seinem dem Torflügel 2 gegenüberliegenden Ende mittels eines Kraftspeichers 15 gelagert. Obgleich im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung beliebige Kraftspeicher zum Einsatz kommen können, ist es besonders bevorzugt, dass der Kraftspeicher durch eine Spiralfedertrommel 15 gebildet ist, da sich hierdurch bei kompakter Bauweise eine konstante Federcharakteristik erzielen lässt. Diese zeichnet sich bei der vorliegenden Ausführungsform dadurch aus, dass die Federkonstante im Arbeitsbereich der Torkonstruktion zwischen der geschlossenen und der offenen Stellung im Bereich von 0,1 bis 0,2 N/m liegt. Auf diese Weise lassen sich die Anforderungen an den Antrieb der Torkonstruktion minimieren.The traction cable 8 serves to balance the weight of the gate leaf 2 during the pivoting movement from the closed to the open position and vice versa, and is mounted for this purpose at its end opposite the gate 2 by means of an energy accumulator 15. Although arbitrary force accumulators can be used in the context of the present invention, it is particularly preferred that the Power storage is formed by a coil spring drum 15, as this can be achieved in a compact design, a constant spring characteristic. This is characterized in the present embodiment in that the spring constant in the working region of the gate construction between the closed and the open position in the range of 0.1 to 0.2 N / m. In this way, the requirements for the drive of the door construction can be minimized.

Wie in Fig. 4 am besten zu erkennen ist, die eine Detailansicht aus Fig. 1 mit dem Torflügel 2 in der geöffneten Stellung zeigt, umfasst die Torkonstruktion 1 ferner zwei untere Laufrollen 16, die drehbar an dem Torflügel 2 angebracht und in der geschlossenen Stellung des Torflügels 2 in dessen unteren Bereich angeordnet sind. Die Laufrollen 16 laufen jeweils einer sich im Wesentlichen vertikal erstreckenden Laufschiene 18, und zwar an deren Lauffläche 18'. Die Laufrollen 16 sind über einen Ausleger 16' derart an dem Torflügel 2 angebracht, dass sie von der Schwerachse des Tores 2 beabstandet auf der Innenseite des Tores angeordnet sind. Hierdurch ist es möglich, wie in Fig. 4 am besten zu erkennen ist, der Torflügel 2 in eine vollständig horizontale Position zu verschwenken, ohne dass die Laufschiene 18 auf die Höhe der horizontalen Laufschiene 6 geführt werden muss, was zu Kollisionen oder zumindest konstruktiven Schwierigkeiten führen würde.As in Fig. 4 It is best to recognize the detail view Fig. 1 with the gate 2 in the open position, the gate construction 1 further comprises two lower rollers 16 which are rotatably mounted on the gate 2 and arranged in the closed position of the gate 2 in its lower region. The rollers 16 each run a substantially vertically extending track 18, namely at the tread 18 '. The rollers 16 are mounted on the door leaf 2 via a bracket 16 'in such a way that they are arranged at a distance from the longitudinal axis of the door 2 on the inside of the door. This makes it possible, as in Fig. 4 is best to see the door leaf 2 to pivot in a completely horizontal position without the running rail 18 must be guided to the height of the horizontal rail 6, which would lead to collisions or at least design difficulties.

Die sich im Wesentlichen vertikal erstreckende Laufschiene 18 kann grundsätzlich beliebig ausgestaltet sein, jedoch ist es im Hinblick auf einen günstigen Gewichtsausgleich und einen geringen Raumbedarf beim Verschwenken des Torflügels bevorzugt, dass die Laufschiene 18 einen unteren Abschnitt 18' ' aufweist, der gegenüber der Vertikalen um bis zu 10 Grad geneigt ist, und ferner einen oberen Abschnitt 18' ' ' aufweist, der gekrümmt ist.The substantially vertically extending track 18 can basically be designed arbitrarily, but it is preferred in view of a favorable weight balance and low space requirement when pivoting the gate, that the track rail 18 has a lower portion 18 '', which relative to the vertical order inclined up to 10 degrees, and further having an upper portion 18 '''which is curved.

Ferner weist der Torflügel 2 auf seiner Unterseite, wie am besten in Fig. 5 zu erkennen ist, ein Sicherheitselement 20 auf, das einen in Bezug auf das Sicherheitselement 20 ausmittig angeordneten Kontaktabschnitt 22 besitzt. Die Ausmittigkeit des Kontaktabschnitts 22 sorgt dafür, dass das Sicherheitselement 20 auch während der Verschwenkbewegung ein gutes Ansprechverhalten besitzt, wenn es auf ein Hindernis wie ein Fahrzeug oder eine Person trifft. So wird durch den in Richtung der Innenseite des Torflügels angeordneten Kontaktabschnitt 22 sichergestellt, dass dieser im Zuge einer Verschwenkbewegung des Torflügels als erster auf ein mögliches Hindernis trifft und einen maximal möglichen Auslöseimpuls zum Anhalten oder Umkehren der Schwenkbewegung erhält.Furthermore, the gate 2 has on its underside, as best in Fig. 5 can be seen, a security element 20 which has a relation to the security element 20 outwardly arranged contact portion 22. The eccentricity of the contact portion 22 ensures that the security element 20 has a good response even during the pivoting movement when it encounters an obstacle such as a vehicle or a person. Thus, it is ensured by the arranged in the direction of the inside of the gate contact portion 22 that this first hits a possible obstacle in the course of a pivoting movement of the gate and receives a maximum possible trigger pulse to stop or reverse the pivoting movement.

Dabei ist es besonders bevorzugt, dass der Kontaktabschnitt 22 durch eine sich in Torbreitenrichtung entlang des Sicherheitselements 20 erstreckende Kammer 22 gebildet ist. In diese Ausgestaltung des Kontaktabschnitts lassen sich vielfältige Sicherheitskonstruktionen integrieren, wie beispielsweise eine Lichtschranke oder ein Innendrucksensor, die auf eine Verformung des Kontaktabschnitts 22 reagieren und einen Sicherheitsbetrieb auslösen.In this case, it is particularly preferred that the contact section 22 is formed by a chamber 22 extending in the door width direction along the security element 20. In this embodiment of the contact portion, a variety of safety structures can be integrated, such as a photoelectric sensor or an internal pressure sensor, which respond to deformation of the contact portion 22 and trigger a safety operation.

Im Hinblick auf die Fingerquetschsicherheit des erfindungsgemäßen Tors ist bei der vorliegenden Ausführungsform ferner vorgesehen, dass der Torflügel 2 umlaufend von einem Spalt 24 umgeben ist (vgl. Fig. 2). Die Abmessungen des Spalts 24 sind derart ausgelegt, dass selbst bei vollständig geschlossenen Torflügel die Gefahr einer Fingerquetschung ausgeschlossen ist, so dass die Breite des Spalts 24 bevorzugt mindestens 25 mm beträgt. Ferner kann in dem Spalt 24 eine in den Figuren nicht gezeigte Dichtung vorgesehen sein.With regard to the finger crushing security of the door according to the invention is further provided in the present embodiment that the door leaf 2 is circumferentially surrounded by a gap 24 (see. Fig. 2 ). The dimensions of the gap 24 are designed in such a way that the risk of finger pinching is ruled out even with completely closed gate leaves, so that the width of the gap 24 is preferably at least 25 mm. Further, in the gap 24, a seal not shown in the figures may be provided.

Der Torflügel selbst kann prinzipiell einen beliebigen Aufbau besitzen und eine Vielfalt von Formen und Oberflächengestaltungen aufweisen. In der vorliegenden Ausführungsform besitzt der Torflügel 2 eine Tragkonstruktion, die miteinander verbundene Aluminium-Hohlprofile 28 aufweist, in deren Hohlräumen Verstärkungsprofile 30 aus Stahl angeordnet sind. Diese Verbundbauweise ermöglicht, dass auf leichtgewichtige und kostengünstig verfügbare Standardbauteile (Aluminiumhohlprofile) zurückgegriffen werden kann deren Tragfähigkeit problemlos durch geeignete Stahlprofile an die Anforderungen des Einzelfalls angepasst werden kann.The gate itself can in principle have any structure and a variety of forms and Have surface designs. In the present embodiment, the gate 2 has a support structure having interconnected aluminum hollow sections 28, in the cavities reinforcing profiles 30 are arranged steel. This composite construction makes it possible to use lightweight and cost-effective standard components (aluminum hollow sections) whose load-bearing capacity can be easily adapted to the requirements of the individual case by means of suitable steel profiles.
