Description

METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR A DISPLACEABLE DOOR BLADE, A BUILDING AND A LUMB ER DRYING FACILITY WITH SUCH A DOOR BLADE
Technical area This invention concerns a method to displace, and an arrangement intended to be used for the displacement of, a vertically displaceable motor-driven door leaf in an opening in a building, a doorway comprising such an arrangement, a building comprising such a doorway and a lumber drying facility comprising such a building. Background
The use of doorways, door constructions, to close openings, usually large openings, between the input side and the output side of a building or between rooms inside the building is previously known. It is possible to open and close these doorways. One type of such a doorway comprises a door leaf that is displaced vertically, upwards and downwards, in the opening during opening and closing of the doorway. In order to be able to displace the door between an open condition and a closed condition, the door, the door leaf, is influenced to change its position with the aid of a motor-driven drive system. There is always a risk that the drive system may suddenly cease to function due to some cause, which in the worst case leads to the door leaf falling down in the opening and risking landing on something or someone. In order to prevent such uncontrolled displacements of the door leaf the doorway normally comprises some type of mechanical safety arrangement that is activated to its working condition if it is not possible to control the door leaf with the aid of the normal drive system, or in the event of undesired location of the door leaf relative to the frame of the doorway. The door then remains stationary until the mechanical safety arrangement, the emergency stop arrangement, has been reset to its non-active condition.
Such a mechanical safety arrangement is normally a separate unit that must be added to at least one of the door leaf and the construction around the door leaf. This requires special mounting and not infrequently it requires special repair engineers, which is time-consuming and expensive. Since this type of safety arrangement is a separate, independent unit that is distinct from the drive system, it is not certain that it will react reliably when the driving of the door does not function, since the driving constitutes a separate unit
When the weather is dry and sunny without precipitation, this type of doorway with a separate mechanical safety arrangement normally functions relatively well. If, on the other hand, it is raining, there is a risk that water will penetrate between the door leaf and other parts of the doorway construction and any seals that are present between the door leaf and, for example, the frame of the doorway, and this may influence the mechanical safety arrangement in a solely physical manner such that it does not function satisfactorily or cannot be activated in a reliable manner. If it is, in addition, cold, such that the rain turns to snow, there is a risk that the rain or snow will freeze to ice, which then will stick to various parts of at least one of the door leaf, the doorway frame and the mechanical safety arrangement, and increases further the risk that the mechanical safety arrangement does not function satisfactorily.
Furthermore, these mechanical safety arrangements are influenced negatively by the physical environment in which they are normally located and which is filled with airborne particles and parts of material that can become lodged in the mechanical safety arrangement, since doorways of this type are normally used on various industrial premises. Also this risks contributing to a failure of the mechanical safety arrangement to function satisfactorily.
Description of the invention One purpose of the present invention is to offer a method to displace a vertically displaceable motor-driven door leaf in an opening in a building, where the method makes it possible to avoid the need of using separate mechanical safety arrangements and ensures secure displacement or locking of the door leaf even in the event of disturbances in the function of the drive.

This invention concerns a method for the displacement of a vertically displaceable motor- driven door leaf 1 in an opening 2 in a building 3. See Figures 1 and 2.
A first line drum 4 comprising a first axis of rotation 5 is caused to interact with a first line 6 that is attached to the line drum 4 and the door leaf 1. A second line drum 7 comprising a second axis of rotation 8 is caused to interact with a second line 9 that is attached to the line drum 7 and the door leaf 1. The two lines 6 and 9 are attached one on each side of the door leaf 1 , on the principally vertically directed sides 1a and 1b of the door leaf 1 that are directed towards the principally vertically directed side sections 2a and 2b of the opening that limit the opening in the sideways direction. See Figures 3-1 1.
A force of rotation is transferred from a motor unit 10 to the relevant axis of rotation 5 and 8 of the line drums through a power-transfer unit 11 , whereby the line drums 4 and 7 rotate. Depending on the direction of rotation of the relevant line drum, the first line 6 is rolled onto or rolled off from the first line drum 4 and the second line 9 is rolled onto or rolled off from the second line drum 7, whereby the door leaf 1 is displaced upwards or downwards. The power- transfer unit 1 1 is caused to act on at least one axis of rotation 5 or 8 since two cogs are always in interaction with each other in a gear system 12 comprised within the power-transfer unit 11 , and it acts on at least one axis of rotation 5 or 8 whereby at least this one axis of rotation 5 or 8 rotates. The force of rotation output from the motor unit, the rate of revolution, is geared to become a suitable force, rate of revolution, for the displacement of the line and for the rotation of the line drum through the use of the gear system 12.
A transmission unit 13 is caused to interact with the first axis of rotation 5 and the second axis of rotation 8, and this transmission unit ensures that the rotation of the axis of rotation that is caused to rotate with the aid of the power-transfer unit 1 1 is transferred to the second axis of rotation. In the case in which both axes of rotation 5 and 8 are caused to rotate with the aid of the motor unit 10, the transmission unit 13 ensures that the two axes of rotation 5 and 8 are rotated at the same speed, which causes the door leaf 1 to be displaced upwards or downwards evenly and equally at its two sides.
This method with the aid of the power-transfer unit 11 and the transmission unit 13 ensures transfer of the power of the motor unit to the line drums 4 and 7, which can continue to rotate, albeit at a lower speed, even if certain parts of the power-transfer unit 11 should suddenly cease to function for any reason. Also the motor unit 10 can in this case, during disturbances in function of the power-transfer unit 11 , be used to brake the displacement of the door leaf both upwards and downwards by braking the rotation of the axes of rotation, the rotation of the line drums, and in this way prevent the displacement of the lines and the door leaf since it will always be possible to cause the motor unit 10 to influence one of the axes of rotation 5 or 8 and to influence the braking function on one of the axes of rotation 5 or 8, which will be transferred to the second axis of rotation 5 or 8.
Two cogs that are always in interaction mean that the motor unit 10 can always apply a force to at least one of the axes of rotation 5 or 8, and the transmission unit 13 makes it possible to transfer rotational force or braking force from the axis of rotation 5 or 8 that has a force applied to it to the axis of rotation 5 or 8 that for some reason does not have a force applied to it directly by the motor unit 10.
A first gear 14 and a second gear 15 that are comprised within the gear system 12 are connected to the motor unit 10 and each one of them to one of the axes of rotation 5 or 8 of the line drums. Each gear 14 and 15 is caused to change the gearing of the rotation that is output from the motor unit and makes possible the setting and the adjustment of a suitable force, rate of revolution, for the displacement of the relevant line and the rotation of the relevant line drum. Even if one of the gears 14 or 15 is not working in the proper manner, the rotation from the one axis of rotation 5 or 8 at which the gear is working can be transferred to the other axis of rotation 5 or 8.
The method can be carried out using a motor 16 such that the force of rotation from this motor 16, which is comprised within the motor unit 10, is transferred to the first axis of rotation 5, the line drum 4, and to the second axis of rotation 8, the line drum 7. When a motor 16 is used, it will not be possible to transfer a force of rotation to either axis of rotation if the motor is in some way faulty, but it will, however, be possible to use the braking ability of the motor such that the door leaf 1 is braked and stopped and is not erroneously displaced if a problem arises with the motor unit 10 itself or with the motor 16. See Figures 5 and 6.
The gear system 12 comprises thus the first gear 14 and the second gear 15 that are coupled to the motor 16 of the motor unit, to at least one rotating output axis 17 from the motor unit, and each is coupled to the axis of rotation 5 or 8 of the relevant line drum. Alternatively, two motors 18 and 19 are used, comprised in the motor unit 10, such that the force of rotation from a first motor 18 comprised within the motor unit 10 is transferred to the first axis of rotation 5, the line drum 4, and where the force of rotation from a second motor 19 comprised within the motor unit 10 is transferred to the second axis of rotation 8, the line drum 7. See Figures 7-9.
The gear system 12 thus comprises the first gear 14 that is located between the first motor 18 of the motor unit and the axis of rotation 5 of the first line drum, and the second gear 15 that is located between the second motor 19 of the motor unit and the axis of rotation 8 of the second line drum.
With two motors 18 and 19, it will be the case that the method ensures the possibility of continuing displacement of the door leaf 1 or applying braking to it, even if one part of the motor unit 10 fails, if one of the motors 18 and 19 fails to function, due to the power-transfer unit 11 and the transmission unit 13. The power-transfer unit 11 ensures that two cogs are always in interaction such that the force of rotation of at least one motor can be transferred to one axis of rotation 5 or 8, such that it can be caused to rotate, and that the rotation of this axis 5 or 8 can be transferred to the second axis of rotation 5 or 8 through the transmission unit 13.
Even if both motors 18 and 19 function, but one gear 14 or 15 fails to function, this method means that the force of rotation can continue to be transferred from the functioning motor 18 or 19 and onwards to both axes of rotation 5 and 8 due to the use of the transmission unit 13.
A detection arrangement 20 is caused to continuously detect the instantaneous power consumption of the motor unit 10 during rotation of the line drums 4 and 7. A comparator 21 is caused to compare the instantaneous power consumption with a specified permitted power consumption within an interval.
A power consumption that lies outside of the specified interval suggests that the load on the drive unit has increased or decreased, which in both cases suggests that there is a fault or problem with the motor unit, the power-transfer unit 11 , the gear system 12, the line drums 4 and 7, the lines 6 and 9, the door leaf 1 or something else that influences the displacement of the door leaf. A level of power consumption outside of the specified interval indicates that continued operation of the door leaf 1 may constitute a danger.
At least one of a brake 22 and a shut-down unit 23 is brought into its working condition if the instantaneous power consumption lies outside of the specified interval, and acts on the motor unit 10 such that the motor unit 10 is braked or shut down if the instantaneous power consumption lies outside of the specified interval. The invention concerns also an arrangement 24 intended to be used during the displacement of a vertically displaceable motor-driven door leaf 1 in an opening 2 in a building 3. An arrangement 24 according to the invention ensures that the method and its various embodiments, which are described above, can be carried out. Such an arrangement 24 comprises a first line drum 4 comprising a first axis of rotation 5 and a first line 6 that interacts with the first line drum 4. The first line 6 is attached to the first line drum 4 and to the door leaf 1. The arrangement 24 comprises also a second line drum 7 comprising a second axis of rotation 8 and a second line 9 that interacts with the second line drum 7. The second line 9 is attached to the second line drum 7 and to the door leaf 1. See Figures 3-11.
The two lines 6 and 9 are attached one on each side of the door leaf 1 , on the principally vertically directed sides 1a and 1b of the door leaf 1 that are directed towards the principally vertically directed side sections 2a and 2b of the opening that limit the opening 2 in the sideways direction.
The arrangement 24 comprises also a motor unit 10 and a power-transfer unit 11 that is connected to the motor unit and to the axes of rotation 5 and 8 of the line drums in order to transfer the force of rotation of the motor unit, the rate of revolution, to the relevant line drum 4 or 7, such that the first line 6 is rolled onto or rolled off from the first line drum 4 and such that the second line 9 is rolled onto or rolled off from the second line drum 7, whereby the door leaf 1 is displaced upwards or downwards. Whether the door leaf 1 is displaced upwards or downwards depends on the direction of rotation of the relevant line drum and the direction of rotation of the lines on the relevant line drum 4 or 7.
The power-transfer unit 11 comprises a gear system 12 that comprises, in turn, geared cogs. The gear system 12 is so designed that there are always two cogs that interact and influence actively at least one of the axes of rotation 5 and 8. The gear system 12 makes it possible to change the gearing of the force of rotation output from the motor unit, the rate of revolution, to become a suitable force, rate of revolution, for the displacement of the line and for the rotation of the line drum.
A transmission unit 13 interacts with the first axis of rotation 5 and the second axis of rotation 8 and makes possible the transfer of the rotation of the axis of rotation 5 or 8 that is rotated by the power-transfer unit to the second axis of rotation. This design of the arrangement 24, the design and construction of the power-transfer unit 11 and the fact that the arrangement 24 comprises a transmission unit 13, ensures transfer of the power of the motor unit to the line drums 4 and 7, which can continue to rotate, albeit at a lower speed, even if certain parts of the power-transfer unit 11 should cease to function. The motor unit 12 can be used during disturbances in function of the power-transfer unit 11 also to brake the displacement of the door leaf both upwards and downwards by braking the rotation of the axes of rotation, the rotation of the line drums, and in this way prevent the displacement of the lines and the door leaf. The use of two cogs that are always in interaction means that the motor unit 10 can always apply a force to one axis of rotation 5 or 8, and the transmission unit 13 makes it possible to transfer rotational force or braking force from the axis of rotation 5 or 8 that has a force applied to it to the axis of rotation 5 or 8 that does not have a force applied to it by the motor unit 10.
The gear system 12 of the power-transfer comprises a first gear 14 and a second gear 15 connected to the motor unit 10 and each to one of the axes of rotation 5 or 8 of the line drums. Each gear 14 and 15 changes the gearing of the rotation that is output from the motor unit and makes possible setting and adjustment of a suitable force, rate of revolution, for the displacement of the relevant line and the rotation of the relevant line drum. Even if one of the gears 14 or 15 is not working in the proper manner, the rotation from the one axis of rotation 5 or 8 at which the gear 14 or 15 is working can be transferred to the other axis of rotation 5 or 8. The motor unit 10 comprises a motor 16, the force of rotation of which is transferred to the first axis of rotation 5, the line drum 4, and to the second axis of rotation 8, the line drum 7. The gear system 12 of the power-transfer comprises a first gear 14 and a second gear 15 connected to the motor 16 of the motor unit and each to one of the axes of rotation 5 or 8 of the line drums. See Figures 5 and 6.
When a motor 16 is used, it will not be possible to transfer a force of rotation to either axis of rotation 5 or 8 if the motor 16 is in some way faulty, but it will, however, be possible to use the braking ability of the motor such that the door leaf 1 is stopped and is not erroneously displaced if a problem arises with the motor 16 itself.
The motor unit 10 may alternatively comprise two motors 18 and 19; a first motor whose force of rotation is transferred to the first axis of rotation 5, the line drum 4, and a second motor 19 whose force of rotation is transferred to the second axis of rotation 8, the line drum 7. The gear system 12 of the power-transfer part thus comprises a first gear 14 that is located between the first motor 18 of the motor unit and the axis of rotation 5 of the first line drum, and a second gear 15 that is located between the second motor 19 of the motor unit and the axis of rotation 8 of the second line drum. See Figures 7-9.
With two motors 18 and 19, it will be the case that the arrangement 24 ensures the continued displacement of the door leaf 1 or the braking of it, even if one part of the motor unit 10 fails, if one of the motors 18 or 19 fails to function, due to the power-transfer unit 11 and the transmission unit 13. The power-transfer unit 11 ensures that two cogs are always in interaction such that the force of rotation of at least one motor can be transferred to one axis of rotation 5 or 8, such that it rotates and that the rotation of this axis 5 or 8 can be transferred to the second axis of rotation 5 or 8 through the transmission unit 13. Even if both motors 18 and 19 function, but one gear 14 or 15 fails to function, this arrangement 24 means that the force of rotation continues to be transferred from one motor 18 or 19 and onwards to both axes of rotation 5 and 8 due to the use of the transmission unit 13. The transmission unit 13 comprises in one embodiment a connection 25 between the two axes of rotation 5 and 8 such that the two axes of rotation 5 and 8 are fixed attached to each other and form a single axis A, where the relevant axis of rotation 5 and 8 each constitutes a part of one and the same axis A. See Figures 9-11. The transmission unit 13 in another embodiment comprises axis parts 26 and 27 fixed arranged at the axes of rotation 5 and 8, and interaction parts 28 arranged between these axis parts, which interaction parts are influenced, displaced, rotated by at least one axis of rotation 5 or 8, the part 26 or 27 of the axis, and transfers the rotation to the second axis of rotation 5 or 8. The axes of rotation 5 and 8 are arranged essentially parallel next to each other. It is appropriate that this type of transmission unit comprise a belt transmission, a chain transmission or a similar transmission. See Figures 2-8.
An arrangement 24 according to the invention comprises also a detection arrangement 20 that continuously detects the instantaneous power consumption of the motor unit during rotation of the line drums, a comparator 21 that compares the instantaneous power consumption with a specified permitted power consumption within an interval, and at least one of a brake 22 and a shut-down unit 23 that is activated when the instantaneous power consumption lies outside of the specified interval and influences the motor unit 10 such that the motor unit 10 is braked or shut down when the instantaneous power consumption lies outside of the specified interval. The invention concerns also a doorway 29 intended to be arranged in an opening 2 in a building 3, and comprising a vertically displaceable motor-driven door leaf 1 and an arrangement 24 according to any one of the embodiments described above that makes possible displacement of the door leaf 1 upwards and downwards in the opening 2. Such an arrangement 24 is principally located and mounted above the door leaf 1. See Figures 1 and 2.
The invention concerns also a building 3 comprising an opening 2 and a doorway 29 as described above comprising a vertical door leaf 1 and an arrangement 24 according to any one of the embodiments described above that makes possible displacement of the door leaf 1 upwards and downwards in the opening 2. See Figure 1.
The invention concerns also a lumber drying facility 30 comprising a building 3 comprising an opening 2 and a doorway 29 as described above comprising a vertical door leaf 1 and an arrangement 24 according to any one of the embodiments described above that makes possible the displacement of the door leaf 1 upwards and downwards in the opening 2.
Parts and fittings may be freely combined within the innovative concept of the invention, as long as their design and function are exploited in the manners described.
