Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Positionierung von Gegenmitnahmemitteln, welche an einer Schachttür einer Aufzuganlage vorgesehen sind.The present invention relates to a method for positioning counter-drive means, which are provided on a shaft door of an elevator installation.

Aufzugtüren weisen üblicherweise eine am Fahrkorb vorgesehene Fahrkorbtür sowie in jedem Stockwerk vorgesehene Schachttüren auf. Bei einem Anfahren eines Stockwerks durch den Fahrkorb müssen sowohl die Fahrkorbtür als auch die entsprechende (dann hinter der Fahrkorbtür positionierte) Schachttür geöffnet und geschlossen werden, um den Ein- und Ausstieg von Fahrgästen bzw. ein Weiterfahren des Fahrkorbs zu ermöglichen.Elevator doors usually have a car door provided on the car and shaft doors provided on each floor. When driving off a floor through the car, both the car door and the corresponding landing door (then positioned behind the car door) must be opened and closed to allow passengers to get in or out of the car.

Üblicherweise weist eine Fahrkorbtür einen Antrieb auf, mittels dessen sie auf- und zubewegbar ist. Um entsprechende Antriebe für jede Schachttür zu vermeiden, ist die Fahrkorbtür mit Mitnahmemitteln bzw. einem Mitnehmermechanismus ausgebildet, der bei Erreichen eines Stockwerks in entsprechende Gegenmitnahmemittel der Schachttür eingreift, und diese mit auf- und zubewegt. Üblicherweise werden hierbei Spreizschwert- Mechanismen verwendet, wie sie beispielsweise in der EP 0 744 373 B1 beschrieben sind.Usually, a car door has a drive by means of which it can be moved up and down. In order to avoid corresponding drives for each shaft door, the car door is formed with driving means or a driving mechanism which engages upon reaching a floor in corresponding counter-drive means of the shaft door, and this with up and moved. Usually here Spreizschwert- mechanisms are used, as for example in the EP 0 744 373 B1 are described.

Insbesondere bei einer sogenannten Hochleistungsfahrkorbtür ist wesentlich, bei sehr schnellen Fahrgeschwindigkeiten Klapper- und Windgeräusche zu vermeiden. Ferner sollen derartige Aufzugstüren möglichst schnell auf- und zugehen. Eine präzise Positionierung der Mitnahmemittel und der Gegenmitnahmemittel zueinander ist wesentlich, um derartige Geräusche zu vermeiden und ein schnelles Öffnen und Schließen der Tür zu ermöglichen.Especially with a so-called high-performance car door is essential to avoid rattling and wind noise at very fast speeds. Furthermore, such elevator doors should open and close as quickly as possible. A precise positioning of the entrainment means and the counter-entrainment means to each other is essential in order to avoid such noise and to allow a quick opening and closing of the door.

Eine weitere Vorrichtung zur Mitnahme einer Schachttür durch eine von einem Türantrieb betätigbare Fahrkorbtür für Aufzugsanlagen ist aus der WO 2011/072891 bekannt.Another device for driving a landing door by an operable by a door drive car door for elevator systems is from the WO 2011/072891 known.

Herkömmlicherweise ist es üblich, als Spreizschwert ausgebildete Mitnahmemittel, welches an der Fahrkorbtür angebracht ist, und als Rollen ausgebildete Gegenmitnahmemittel, welche an jeder Schachttür vorgesehen sind, in der Nähe der Türoberkanten zu positionieren. Dies ermöglicht einem Monteur, vom Fahrkorbdach aus eine gewünschte Positionierung der Gegenmitnahmemittel bezüglich der Mitnahmemittel einzustellen. Dies geschieht in der Regel dadurch, dass der Fahrkorb in eine Position etwas unterhalb einer Stockwerksposition verfahren wird, sodass das am Fahrkorb vorgesehene Spreizschwert und die an der Schachttür vorgesehenen Rollen, in welche das Spreizschwert zur Mitnahme der Schachttür eingreift, für den Monteur gleichzeitig sichtbar sind. Diese Vorgehensweise erweist sich insbesondere dadurch als günstig, dass das Spreizschwert mit seinem oberen Ende über die Oberkante des Fahrkorbs hinausragt.Conventionally, it has been customary to position entrainment means designed as a spreader blade, which is attached to the car door, and counter-drive means designed as rollers, which are provided on each shaft door, in the vicinity of the door top edges. This allows an installer to set a desired positioning of the counter-drive means with respect to the driving means from the car roof. This is usually done in that the car is moved to a position slightly below a floor position, so that provided on the car Spreizschwert and provided on the shaft door rollers in which the Spreizschwert engages to entrain the shaft door, are visible to the fitter simultaneously , This procedure proves to be particularly favorable in that the Spreizschwert protrudes with its upper end on the upper edge of the car.

Der Monteur sieht die Position des Spreizschwertes in zusammengefaltetem Zustand, und kennt gleichzeitig die Hubbewegung der Spreizschwertwinkel des Spreizschwertes, vom gefalteten in den auseinander gefahrenen Kopplungs- bzw. Endzustand. Anhand dieser optischen Informationen ist der Monteur in der Lage, die als Gegenmitnahmemittel dienenden Rollen, zwischen welche das Spreizschwert eingreifen soll, so zu positionieren, dass die Spreizschwertwinkel im auseinandergefaltetem Zustand jeweils eine Rolle beaufschlagen, und somit Fahrkorbtür und Schachttür koppeln. Üblicherweise sind hierbei die beiden Rollen, gegebenenfalls mit weiteren Komponenten eines Kopplungs- und Verriegelungsmechanismus, auf einer Trägerplatte vorgesehen, welche mit Langlöchern ausgebildet ist. Die Langlöcher sind hierbei vor entsprechenden, in der Schachttür ausgebildeten Gewinden positioniert, so dass eine gewünschte Verschiebung und Fixierung der Trägerplatte bzgl. der Schachttür unter Verwendung von mit den Langlöchern und den Gewinden zusammenwirkenden Schrauben möglich ist.The installer sees the position of the expansion blade in the folded state, and at the same time knows the lifting movement the Spreizschwertwinkel the Spreizschwertes, from the folded in the driven apart coupling or final state. On the basis of this optical information, the fitter is able to position the rollers, which serve as counter-drive means, between which the spreader blade should engage, so that the spreader blade angles in each unfolded state act on a roller, and thus couple the car door and shaft door. Usually, in this case, the two rollers, optionally provided with further components of a coupling and locking mechanism, on a support plate, which is formed with slots. The slots are in this case positioned in front of corresponding, formed in the shaft door threads, so that a desired displacement and fixation of the support plate with respect. The shaft door is possible using cooperating with the slots and the threads screws.

Bei dieser Vorgehensweise ist jedoch eine Positionierung der Gegenmitnahmemittel, insbesondere einer Trägerplatte mit zwei Rollen, sowie des Spreizschwertes lediglich in unmittelbarer Umgebung der Oberkante der Schachttür bzw. Fahrkorbtür möglich. Dies bedeutet, dass auch die Kopplung von Fahrkorbtür und Schachttür in der Umgebung der Oberkante der Türen erfolgt, was insbesondere bei schnell auf- und zugehenden Türen zu einer relativ starken und ungleichmäßigen Momentenbelastung der Türen führt.In this approach, however, a positioning of the counter-drive means, in particular a support plate with two rollers, and the Spreizschwertes only in the immediate vicinity of the upper edge of the shaft door or car door is possible. This means that the coupling of the car door and shaft door takes place in the vicinity of the upper edge of the doors, resulting in a relatively strong and uneven torque load on the doors, especially in the case of doors opening and closing quickly.

Ferner ist der zu betreibende Sicherheitsaufwand relativ hoch, da die Arbeit vom Fahrkorbdach aus ausgeführt werden muss.Furthermore, the safety effort to be operated is relatively high, since the work must be carried out from the car roof.

Schließlich wird eine derartige Montage als relativ aufwendig angesehen, da die Positionierung der Rollen im Wesentlichen nach Augenmaß erfolgt. Dies führt in der Praxis regelmäßig dazu, dass die Position der Rollen bzw. der Trägerplatte nachjustiert werden muss, was mit einem mehrfachen Verfahren des Fahrkorbes verbunden ist.Finally, such a mounting is considered to be relatively expensive, since the positioning of the rollers is done essentially by eye. In practice, this regularly leads to the position of the rollers or the carrier plate having to be readjusted, which is associated with a multiple process of the car.

Die EP 1 500 625 A1 beschreibt ein Verfahren bei dem die Positionierung der Rollen an der Schachttür mittels einer Beaufschlagung durch Spreizschwertwinkel bewerktstelligt wird.The EP 1 500 625 A1 describes a method in which the positioning of the rollers on the hoistway door is effected by means of an action of a spread angle.

Die vorliegende Erfindung strebt eine vereinfachte und gleichzeitig präzise Positionierung der Gegenmitnahmemittel bzgl. der Mitnahmemittel eines Kopplungsmechanismus für Fahrkorbtür und Schachttüren einer Aufzugsanlage an.The present invention aims at a simplified yet precise positioning of the counter-drive means with respect to the driving means of a coupling mechanism for the car door and shaft doors of an elevator system.

Dieses Ziel wird erreicht mit einem Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1.This object is achieved by a method having the features of patent claim 1.

Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren ist ein schnell und effektiv und gleichzeitig präzise durchführbares Verfahren zur Positionierung von Mitnahmemitteln und Gegenmitnahmemitteln zueinander zur Verfügung gestellt. Das Verfahren erlaubt eine weitgehend beliebige Positionierung der Mitnahmemittel und Gegenmitnahmemittel an Fahrkorbtür bzw. Schachttür. Durch die automatisierte und sehr präzise Positionierung können Klappergeräusche während der Fahrt der Aufzugskabine, sowie während des Öffnens und Schließens der Türen, minimiert bzw. vermieden werden. Es sei angemerkt, dass die Schritte des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens nicht notwendigerweise in der angegebenen Reihenfolge durchgeführt werden müssen. Es ist beispielsweise denkbar, die Reihenfolge der Schritte des Verfahrens bzw. Bewegens des Fahrkorbs in eine Stockwerkposition und des Öffnens der Fahrkorbtür miteinander zu vertauschen, also zum Beispiel den Fahrkorb mit bereits geöffneter Fahrkorbtür in die Stockwerksposition zu verfahren. Auch kann zum Beispiel die Fixierung der Schachttür im geschlossenen Zustand bereits vor dem Verfahren des Fahrkorbs in die Stockwerksposition oder vor dem Öffnen der Fahrkorbtür durchgeführt werden. Auch die Bereitstellung der Gegenmitnahmemittel mit Spiel kann zum Beispiel bereits vor dem Verfahren des Fahrkorbs in die Stockwerksposition oder vor dem Öffnen der Fahrkorbtür oder vor dem Fixieren der Schachttür im geschlossenen Zustand erfolgen.With the method according to the invention a fast and effective and at the same time precise feasible method for positioning of driving means and Gegenmitnahmemitteln each other is provided. The method allows a largely arbitrary positioning of the driving means and counter-drive means on the car door or shaft door. Thanks to the automated and very precise positioning, rattling noises can be minimized or avoided while the elevator car is moving, as well as during the opening and closing of the doors. It should be noted that the steps of the method according to the invention are not necessarily carried out in the order given Need to become. It is conceivable, for example, to swap the order of the steps of the method or moving the car into a floor position and the opening of the car door with one another, for example to move the car to the floor position with the car door already open. Also, for example, the fixing of the shaft door in the closed state can be carried out before the car is moved to the floor position or before the car door is opened. The provision of the counter-drive means with play can also take place, for example, before the method of the car is moved to the floor position or before the car door is opened or before the shaft door is locked in the closed state.

Unter den Begriff "Stockwerksposition" wird insbesondere die Position des Fahrkorbs verstanden, bei der ein Ein- und Ausstieg einer Person ohne weiteres möglich ist. Insbesondere umfasst dieser Begriff die normale Haltestellenposition, bei der der Boden des Fahrkorbs und des jeweiligen Stockwerks bündig zueinander ausgerichtet. Von dem Begriff umfasst seien jedoch auch Fahrkorbpositionen leicht unterhalb oder leicht überhalb der normalen Haltestellenposition, z.B. ± 20-40cm. Der Begriff soll insbesondere sämtliche Fahrkorbpositionen umfassen, bei denen die Mitnahmemittel und die Gegenmitnahmemittel miteinander in Wirkverbindung stehen, mit anderen Worten sich der Fahrkorb in der Kopplungs- bzw. Entriegelungszone befindet.The term "floor position" is understood in particular the position of the car, in which an entry and exit of a person is readily possible. In particular, this term includes the normal stop position where the floor of the car and the respective floor are flush with each other. However, the term also includes car positions slightly below or slightly above the normal stop position, e.g. ± 20-40cm. The term is intended in particular to encompass all car positions in which the driving means and the counter drive means are in operative connection with each other, in other words the car is in the coupling or unlocking zone.

Beim Verfahren des Fahrkorbs in die Stockwerksposition werden unter normalen Betriebsbedingungen die Mitnahmemittel und die Gegenmitnahmemittel miteinander in Wirkverbindung gebracht. Beispielsweise können die Mitnahmemittel in die Gegenmitnahmemittel eingeführt werden.When the car is moved to the floor position, the driving means and the counter-driving means are in operative connection with one another under normal operating conditions brought. For example, the entrainment means can be introduced into the counter-drive means.

Ein Öffnen der Fahrkorbtür unter gleichzeitigem Geschlossenhalten der Schachttür ist beispielsweise durch manuelles Entkoppeln der Fahrkorbtür von der Schachttür möglich. Hierzu kann beispielsweise eine Steuerfunktion vorgesehen sein, welche bei Positionierung des Fahrkorbs in der Stockwerksposition die Mitnahmemittel ausser Eingriff bezüglich der Gegenmitnahmemittel bringt. Es ist ebenfalls möglich, die Schachttür zunächst zusammen mit der Fahrkorbtür zu öffnen, und dann anschließend nur die Schachttür wieder zu schließen.Opening the car door while simultaneously keeping the shaft door closed is possible, for example, by manual uncoupling of the car door from the shaft door. For this purpose, for example, a control function may be provided, which brings the driving means out of engagement with the counter-driving means when positioning the car in the floor position. It is also possible to first open the shaft door together with the car door, and then only to close the shaft door again.

Ein Öffnen der Fahrkorbtür kann beispielsweise manuell oder auch durch Betätigung des entsprechenden Antriebs der Fahrkorbtür erfolgen.Opening the car door can be done for example manually or by pressing the corresponding drive the car door.

Eine Fixierung der Schachttür im geschlossenen Zustand kann beispielsweise manuell durch Verwendung entsprechender Blockierungswerkzeuge bewerkstelligt werden.A fixation of the shaft door in the closed state, for example, be accomplished manually by using appropriate blocking tools.

Die an der Schachttür vorgesehenen Gegenmitnahmemittel können bereits bei Einfahren des Fahrkorbs in die Stockwerksposition mit Spiel bezüglich der Schachttür ausgebildet sein. Es ist allerdings ebenfalls möglich, dass die Gegenmitnahmemittel beim Einfahren des Fahrkorbs ohne Spiel an der Fahrkorbtür befestigt sind, und ein (beispielsweise im Fahrkorbinneren befindlicher) Monteur die Gegenmitnahmemittel mit Spiel versieht. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren kann somit zur Ersteinstellung als auch zu einer Nachjustierung der Position der Gegenmitnahmemittel eingesetzt werden.The counter-drive means provided on the shaft door can already be formed when the elevator car enters the floor position with play relative to the shaft door. However, it is also possible that the counter-drive means are secured when driving the car without play on the car door, and a (for example, in-car interior) installer provides the counter-drive means game. The method according to the invention can thus be used for the initial setting as well as for a readjustment of the position of the counter-drive means.

Das erneute Verschließen der Fahrkorbtür kann wiederum manuell, oder durch Verwendung des Fahrkorbtürantriebs erfolgen. Das Betätigen der an der Fahrkorbtür ausgebildeten Mitnahmemittel zur Beaufschlagung der Gegenmitnahmemittel entspricht im Wesentlichen dem normalen Kopplungsvorgang, von Fahrkorbtür und Schachttür, bei dem die Mitnahmemittel in die Gegenmitnahmemittel eingreifen, um eine feste Kopplung zwischen beiden Türen zu bewerkstelligen, so dass beide Türen durch den Fahrkorbtürantrieb geöffnet und geschlossen werden können. Hierbei werden jedoch die Gegenmitnahmemittel aufgrund ihres Spiels in eine gewünschte Position auf der Schachttür verschoben bzw. gebracht.The re-closing of the car door can again be done manually, or by using the car door drive. The actuation of the driving means formed on the car door for acting on the counter-driving means substantially corresponds to the normal coupling process of the car door and landing door, wherein the driving means engage in the counter-driving means to accomplish a fixed coupling between the two doors, so that both doors through the car door drive can be opened and closed. Here, however, the counter-driving means are moved or brought due to their game in a desired position on the shaft door.

Unter Beendigung der Beaufschlagung der Gegenmitnahmemittel durch die Mitnahmemittel wird wiederum ein Ausser-Eingriff-Bringen der Mitnahmemittel bezüglich der Gegenmitnahmemittel verstanden, wodurch wiederum ein Öffnen der Fahrkorbtür unter Geschlossenhalten der Schachttür möglich ist.Upon termination of the application of the counter-drive means by the entrainment means, a disengagement of the entrainment means with respect to the counter-drive means is again understood, which in turn makes it possible to open the car door while keeping the shaft door closed.

Die anschließende Befestigung der Gegenmitnahmemittel an der Schachttür kann dann durch einen (z.B. im Fahrkorbinneren befindlichen) Monteur erfolgen.The subsequent attachment of the counter-drive means on the shaft door can then be done by a (for example, inside the car) fitter.

Die Fixierung der Schachttür in dem geschlossenen Zustand kann jetzt gelöst werden.The fixation of the shaft door in the closed state can now be solved.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Zweckmäßigerweise weisen die Gegenmitnahmemittel zwei voneinander beabstandete Rollen, und die Mitnahmemittel ein zwischen die Rollen einbringbares Spreizschwert mit zwei Spreizschwertwinkeln auf, wobei die Rollen mittels Auseinanderfahrens der zwischen sie eingebrachten Spreizschwertwinkel in ihre gewünschte Position an der Schachttür verschoben und in dieser Position befestigt werden. Derartige Mitnahmemittel und Gegenmitnahmemittel erweisen sich als besonders leicht einstellbar, und bezüglich Wartung und Verschleiß als robust und zuverlässig.Conveniently, the counter-drive means comprise two spaced-apart rollers, and the entrainment means between the roles einbringbares Spreizschwert with two Spreizschwertwinkeln, the roles are moved by moving apart of them introduced Spreizschwertwinkel in their desired position on the shaft door and secured in this position. Such entrainment means and counter-drive means prove to be particularly easy to adjust, and in terms of maintenance and wear as robust and reliable.

Zweckmäßigerweise weisen die Rollen eine feste Beabstandung zueinander auf einer Trägerplatte auf, wobei die Trägerplatte wenigstens ein Langloch aufweist. Mittels eines derartigen Mechanismus ist ein Verschieben einer Trägerplatte mit den darauf angebrachten Rollen bezüglich einer Schachttür durch Beaufschlagung durch ein Spreizschwert in einfacher Weise möglich. Es sei angemerkt, dass auch eine Verschiebbarkeit und Fixierbarkeit der Rollen direkt an einer Schachttür (also insbesondere ohne Trägerplatte) realisiert sein kann. Zu diesem Zwecke ist es beispielsweise möglich, Langlöcher in der Schachttür auszubilden, in denen bzw. bezüglich welcher die Rollen positioniert werden können. Es ist ebenfalls denkbar, die Rollen bezüglich einer Trägerplatte bis zu einem Anschlag hin verschiebbar auszugestalten. In diesem Fall würde eine Beaufschlagung mittels des Spreizschwertes zunächst ein Verfahren der Rollen bezüglich der Trägerplatte, und erst nach Erreichen der jeweiligen Anschläge eine Verschiebung der Trägerplatte bezüglich der Schachttür bewirken. Diese Ausgestaltung erlaubt eine Bereitstellung der bereits dargestellten Kopplungs- und Mitnahmefunktion mit einer Entriegelungsfunktion unter Verwendung von lediglich zwei Rollen. Die Entriegelungsfunktion wird verwendet, um einen Verriegelungsmechanismus, durch welchen ein Öffnen der Schachttür beim Normalbetrieb des Aufzugs nicht möglich ist, solange sich der Fahrkorb bzw. die Fahrkorbtür nicht unmittelbar hinter der Schachttür befindet, zu entriegeln. In diesem Fall ist es zweckmäßig, während des Positionierungsverfahrens die Rollen in ihrer Position nach Erreichen der Anschläge vorübergehend zu fixieren. Hierdurch kann vermieden werden, dass diese Rollen sich bei der Entfernung des Spreizschwertes im Rahmen des Positionierungsverfahrens bewegen, und so gegebenenfalls eine Verschiebung der Trägerplatte verursachen.Conveniently, the rollers have a fixed spacing from each other on a support plate, wherein the support plate has at least one slot. By means of such a mechanism, a displacement of a support plate with the rollers mounted thereon with respect to a shaft door by application by a Spreizschwert in a simple manner possible. It should be noted that also a displaceability and fixability of the rollers can be realized directly on a shaft door (ie in particular without carrier plate). For this purpose, it is possible, for example, to form slots in the shaft door, in which or with respect to which the rollers can be positioned. It is also conceivable to make the rollers displaceable up to a stop with respect to a carrier plate. In this case, an application by means of the expansion blade would first cause a movement of the rollers with respect to the carrier plate, and only after reaching the respective stops a displacement of the support plate with respect to the shaft door. This embodiment allows a provision of the already shown coupling and entrainment function with an unlocking function using only two rollers. The unlocking function is used to lock a locking mechanism through which opening the landing door during normal operation of the elevator is not possible, as long as the car or the car door is not immediately behind the shaft door to unlock. In this case, it is expedient to temporarily fix the rollers in their position after reaching the stops during the positioning process. In this way it can be avoided that these rollers move during the removal of the expansion blade in the context of the positioning method, and thus possibly cause a displacement of the support plate.

Gemäß einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird wenigstens einer der Verfahrensschritte wenigstens teilweise durch einen im Inneren des Fahrkorbs befindlichen Monteur (Bedienperson) bewerkstelligt. Hierdurch ist die Sicherheit der Bedienperson gegenüber herkömmlichen Positionierungsverfahren, welche vom Fahrkorbdach aus durchgeführt werden mussten, wesentlich verbessert. Auch ist das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren gegenüber herkömmlichen Verfahren schneller und gleichzeitig präziser durchführbar. Bevorzugt ist hierbei, sämtliche Verfahrensschritte, wie sie im Hauptanspruch aufgeführt sind, von einer Bedienperson, welche sich im Inneren des Fahrkorbs befindet, durchführen zu lassen.According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, at least one of the method steps is accomplished at least partially by a fitter (operator) located in the interior of the elevator car. As a result, the safety of the operator over conventional positioning method, which had to be performed from the car roof, significantly improved. Also, the method according to the invention over conventional methods faster and at the same time more precise feasible. In this case, it is preferable to let all process steps, as listed in the main claim, be carried out by an operator, who is located inside the car.

Als besonders vorteilhaft erweist sich, die Gegenmitnahmemittel und/oder die Mitnahmemittel auf etwa halber Höhe der Schachttür bzw. Fahrkorbtür auszubilden. Aufgrund der gegenüber herkömmlichen Lösungen gleichmäßigeren Belastung sowohl der Gegenmitnahmemittel durch die Mitnahmemittel als auch der jeweiligen Türen ist auch ein Verschleiß gegenüber bekannten Lösungen vermindert, wodurch Wartungsaufwand verringert werden kann.It proves to be particularly advantageous to design the counter-drive means and / or the entrainment means at approximately half the height of the shaft door or car door. Due to the compared to conventional solutions uniform load both the counter-drive means by the driving means and the respective doors is also a wear against reduced known solutions, which maintenance can be reduced.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren erlaubt erstmals die Ausbildung bzw. Anordnung der Mitnahmemittel und/oder der Gegenmitnahmemittel auf etwa halber Höhe der Fahrkorbtür bzw. der Schachttür. Hierdurch können beim Öffnen und Schließen der Türen auftretende Momente, welche auf die Türen wirken, signifikant verringert werden. Unter "etwa auf halber Höhe" wird insbesondere ein Abstand von 50-150 cm, insbesondere 100-150 cm, von einer Unterkante und/oder Oberkante von Fahrkorbtür bzw. Schachttür, oder auch eine Positionierung in einem Bereich bis zu 50cm oberhalb oder unterhalb der halben Türhöhe verstanden. Für als Spreizschwertwinkel ausgebildete Mitnahmemittel bedeutet dies insbesondere, dass der mittlere Bereich der vertikal sich erstreckenden Spreizschwertwinkel etwa auf halber Höhe der Fahrkorbtür positioniert sind. Eine derartige Positionierung der Mitnahmemittel und/oder Gegenmitnahmemittel führt auch zu einer besonders leichten Zugänglichkeit für einen Monteur, der sich im Inneren des Fahrkorbs befindet.The inventive method allows for the first time the training or arrangement of the driving means and / or the counter-drive means at about half the height of the car door or the shaft door. As a result, occurring when opening and closing the doors moments that act on the doors can be significantly reduced. By "about halfway up" is in particular a distance of 50-150 cm, in particular 100-150 cm, from a lower edge and / or upper edge of the car door or shaft door, or a positioning in an area up to 50cm above or below the half door height understood. For driving means designed as a spread angle, this means, in particular, that the middle area of the vertically extending spread angle is positioned approximately halfway up the car door. Such a positioning of the driving means and / or counter-driving means also leads to a particularly easy accessibility for a mechanic who is located inside the car.

In den Figuren 1a, 1b ist eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform einer Mitnahmevorrichtung, bei welcher das Verfahren gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung ausführbar ist, dargestellt und insgesamt mit 100 bezeichnet.In the FIGS. 1a, 1b is a preferred embodiment of a driving device, wherein the method according to the present invention is executable, shown and designated 100 in total.

Die Vorrichtung 100 dient zur Kopplung einer Fahrkorbtür mit einer Schachttür eines Aufzugs. Fahrkorbtür und Schachttür sind in Figuren 1a, 1b lediglich schematisch mittels Klammern angedeutet und mit 80 bzw. 90 bezeichnet. Mittels der durch die Vorrichtung 100 bereitgestellten Kopplung zwischen Fahrkorbtür 80 und Schachttür 90 muss lediglich die Fahrkorbtür 80 mit einem Türantrieb (nicht dargestellt), welcher die Fahrkorbtür 80 öffnet bzw. schließt, ausgebildet sein. Aufgrund der Kopplung muss für die Schachttür 90 kein eigener Antrieb vorgesehen sein.The device 100 is used to couple a car door with a shaft door of an elevator. Car door and landing door are in FIGS. 1a, 1b only schematically indicated by brackets and designated 80 and 90, respectively. By means of the coupling between the car door 80 and shaft door 90 provided by the device 100, only the car door 80 needs to be configured with a door drive (not shown) which opens or closes the car door 80. Due to the coupling, no separate drive must be provided for the shaft door 90.

Die Vorrichtung 100 weist fahrkorbtürseitig zwei Spreizschwertwinkel 110 auf, welche mit schachttürseitig angebrachten Rollen 210 zur Kopplung von Fahrkorbtür und Schachttür zusammenwirken, wie weiter unten beschrieben wird. Die Spreizschwertwinkel 110 stellen somit Mitnahmemittel, und die Rollen 210 Gegenmitnahmemittel im Sinne der Erfindung dar.The device 100 has car door side two Spreizschwertwinkel 110, which with bay door side mounted rollers 210 for coupling the car door and Shaft door cooperate, as described below. The Spreizschwertwinkel 110 thus represent entrainment, and the rollers 210 counter-drive means in the context of the invention.

Die Vorrichtung 100 weist fahrkorbtürseitig einen Spreizschwertwinkel-Antrieb 101 auf, der dazu dient, die Spreizschwertwinkel 110 mit den Rollen 210 zu koppeln. Die Spreizschwertwinkel 110 werden hierzu mittels des Antriebs 101 zunächst in Richtung der Schachttür zwischen die Rollen 210 ausgefahren (mittels Pfeil P in Fig. 1a angedeutet), und in dieser Position gespreizt (mittels Pfeil Q in Fig. 1b angedeutet). Diese ausgefahrene und gespreizte Position ist in Figur 1b dargestellt.The device 100 has the car door side a Spreizschwertwinkel drive 101, which serves to couple the Spreizschwertwinkel 110 with the rollers 210. For this purpose, the expansion blade angles 110 are initially extended by means of the drive 101 in the direction of the shaft door between the rollers 210 (by means of the arrow P in FIG Fig. 1a indicated), and spread in this position (by means of arrow Q in Fig. 1b indicated). This extended and spread position is in FIG. 1b shown.

Das beschriebene Herausfahren und Spreizen der Spreizschwertwinkel 110 führt dazu, dass die Spreizwertwinkel die jeweiligen Rollen 210 beaufschlagen, und somit Fahrkorbtür und Schachttür miteinander koppeln. In diesem Zustand sind Fahrkorbtür und Schachttür über die Kopplung von Spreizwertwinkeln 110 und Rollen 210 derart miteinander gekoppelt, dass ein Öffnen bzw. Schließen der Fahrkorbtür 80 mittels eines (nicht dargestellten) Fahrkorbtür-Antriebs zu einer Mitnahme bzw. einen gleichzeitigen Öffnen oder Schließen der Schachttür 90 führt.The described retraction and spreading of the Spreizschwertwinkel 110 causes the Spreizwertwinkel act on the respective rollers 210, and thus couple the car door and landing door with each other. In this state, the car door and landing door are coupled to each other via the coupling of spread angle 110 and rollers 210 such that opening or closing the car door 80 by means of a car door drive (not shown) leads to simultaneous opening or closing of the landing door 90 leads.

Um die Kopplung zwischen Fahrkorbtür und Schachttür wieder zu lösen, muss der beschriebene Vorgang in umgekehrter Reihenfolge zurück gefahren werden, d. h. die Spreizschwertwinkel 110 werden mittels des Antriebs 101 wieder gefaltet, und in die in Figur 1a dargestellten Positionen eingefahren.In order to solve the coupling between the car door and landing door again, the process described must be reversed in reverse order, ie the Spreizschwertwinkel 110 are folded by means of the drive 101 again, and in the in FIG. 1a retracted positions shown.

Eine genaue Positionierung der Rollen 210 bzgl. der Spreizschwertwinkel 110 ist von großer Bedeutung. Sind nämlich beispielsweise die Spreizschwertwinkel 110 in dem in Figur 1a dargestellten Zustand nicht symmetrisch bzw. mittig der Rollen 210 angeordnet, kann es beim Spreizen der Spreizschwertwinkel zu einer asymmetrischen bzw. nicht gleichzeitigen Beaufschlagung der Rollen 210 kommen, was sich beispielsweise in einer erhöhten Lärmbelastung (Klappergeräuschen) oder auch in einem erhöhten Verschleiß bemerkbar machen kann.An exact positioning of the rollers 210 with respect to the Spreizschwertwinkel 110 is of great importance. For example, are the Spreizschwertwinkel 110 in the in FIG. 1a illustrated state is not symmetrical or arranged centrally of the rollers 210, it may come when spreading the Spreizschwertwinkel to an asymmetric or non-simultaneous loading of the rollers 210, which can be noticeable for example in an increased noise (rattling noises) or in increased wear ,

Bei der Montage einer Aufzugsanlage müssen daher die Rollen 210 an der Schachttür bezüglich. der Spreizschwertwinkel 110 und der Fahrkorbtür möglichst genau positioniert werden. Hier setzt die vorliegende Erfindung an.When mounting an elevator system, therefore, the rollers 210 at the shaft door with respect. Spreizschwertwinkel 110 and the car door are positioned as accurately as possible. This is where the present invention begins.

In den Figuren 2 und 3 ist eine bevorzugte konstruktive Möglichkeit zur Realisierung der Erfindung dargestellt. Man erkennt hier, dass die Rollen 210 hier auf einer Montageplatte 250 angebracht sind. Diese Montageplatte 250 ist mit einer Anzahl von Langlöchern 252 (im dargestellten Beispiel sind vier derartige Langlöcher 252 vorgesehen) ausgebildet. Durch diese Langlöcher 252 sind jeweils Schrauben 254 durchführbar, welche mit entsprechenden Gewinden 256, welche in der Schachttür 90 ausgebildet sind, zusammenwirken.In the FIGS. 2 and 3 a preferred constructional possibility for the realization of the invention is shown. It can be seen here that the rollers 210 are mounted here on a mounting plate 250. This mounting plate 250 is formed with a number of slots 252 (four such slots 252 are provided in the illustrated example). Through these slots 252 each screw 254 are feasible, which cooperate with corresponding threads 256 which are formed in the shaft door 90.

Im Falle einer lockeren, d. h. nicht angezogenen, Einbringung der Schrauben 254 in die Gewinde 256 ist somit eine Verschiebbarkeit der Montageplatte 250 und somit der Rollen 210 bzgl. der Schachttür 90 zur Verfügung gestellt. Die Rollen weisen hierbei also ein Spiel bezüglich der Schachttür auf.In the case of a loose, ie not tightened, introduction of the screws 254 in the thread 256 thus a displacement of the mounting plate 250 and thus the rollers 210 with respect. The shaft door 90 is provided. The So roles here have a game on the shaft door.

Im Folgenden wird zur Darstellung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens auch auf Fig. 4 Bezug genommen.In the following, the process of the invention is also illustrated Fig. 4 Referenced.

Zur Positionierung der Rollen 210 bzgl. der Spreizschwertwinkel 110 wird zunächst der Fahrkorb in eine jeweilige Haltestelle (Stockwerksposition) verfahren (Schritt 410). Anschließend werden durch den Monteur die Fahrkorbtüren (zweckmäßigerweise vom Inneren des Fahrkorbs aus) geöffnet (Schritt 420), wobei diese hierbei nicht mit den Schachttüren gekoppelt sein dürfen.For positioning the rollers 210 with respect to the spread angle 110, the car is first moved to a respective stop (floor position) (step 410). Subsequently, the car doors are opened (expediently from the interior of the car) by the fitter (step 420), wherein these may not be coupled with the shaft doors.

Anschließend werden die Schachttüren 90 gegen ein Aufschieben bzw. eine Bewegung während des nun folgenden Positionierungsvorgangs fixiert (Schritt 430).Subsequently, the shaft doors 90 are fixed against being pushed or moved during the following positioning operation (step 430).

Es ist auch möglich, zunächst die Fahrkorbtür und die mit dieser gekoppelte Schachttür zu öffnen, die Kopplung zu lösen und anschließend die Schachttür wieder zu schließen und in der geschlossenen Position zu fixieren.It is also possible to first open the car door and coupled with this shaft door, to release the coupling and then close the shaft door again and to fix in the closed position.

Um die als Gegenmitnahmemittel dienenden Rollen 210 in ihre Position relativ zur Schachttür 90 bzw. relativ zu den als Mitnahmemittel dienenden Spreizschwertwinkeln einstellen zu können, werden, um ein Spiel für die Rollen bereitzustellen zunächst die Befestigungsschrauben 254 gelöst, und zweckmäßigerweise handfest wieder angezogen (Schritt 440). Hierdurch lässt sich die Montageplatte 250 mit leichtem Kraftaufwand relativ zur Schachttür 90 verschieben. Gleichzeitig ist dafür gesorgt, dass nach Beendigung der automatischen Positionierung die Position der Montageplatte 250 beibehalten werden kann, um anschließend die endgültige Befestigung bzw. Einstellung der Position durch festes Anziehen der Schrauben 254 zu bewerkstelligen.In order to adjust the rollers 210 serving as counter-drive means in their position relative to the shaft door 90 or relative to the spreading blade angles serving as driving means, the fixing screws 254 are first loosened and expediently tightened again in order to provide play for the rollers (step 440) ). As a result, the mounting plate 250 can be moved relative to the shaft door 90 with a slight expenditure of force. At the same time it is ensured that after completion of the automatic Positioning the position of the mounting plate 250 can be maintained, to subsequently accomplish the final attachment or adjustment of the position by tightening the screws 254.

In diesem Zustand der gelösten und handfest angezogenen Befestigungsschrauben 254 wird die Fahrkorbtür 80 mittels des Fahrkorbtür-Antriebs zunächst wieder verschlossen (Schritt 450). Die (fixierte) Schachttür bleibt hierbei geschlossen. In dieser verschlossenen Stellung wird die Fahrkorbtür 80 ausschließlich mittels des Fahrkorbtür-Antriebs gehalten (Betriebsposition). Es ist für eine genaue Positionierung wichtig, dass diese Betriebsposition während des Positionierungsverfahrens gehalten wird.In this state of the loosened and tightened fastening screws 254, the car door 80 is first closed again by means of the car door drive (step 450). The (fixed) landing door remains closed. In this locked position, the car door 80 is held exclusively by means of the car door drive (operating position). It is important for accurate positioning that this operating position be maintained during the positioning process.

Die automatische Positionierung der Montageplatte 250 mit den darauf vorgesehenen Rollen 210 wird nun gestartet. Zu diesem Zwecke muss lediglich der bereits unter Bezugnahme auf die Figuren 1a, 1b beschriebene Kopplungsvorgang (Ausfahren und Spreizen der Spreizschwertwinkel) gestartet werden (Schritt 460), d.h. ein Betätigen der an der Fahrkorbtür ausgebildeten Mitnahmemittel zur Beaufschlagung der Gegenmitnahmemittel durchgeführt werden.The automatic positioning of the mounting plate 250 with the rollers 210 provided thereon is now started. For this purpose, only the one with reference to the FIGS. 1a, 1b described coupling process (extension and spreading of the Spreizschwertwinkel) are started (step 460), ie an actuation of the formed on the car door entrainment means for acting on the counter-drive means are performed.

Zur Veranschaulichung sind in Figur 2 die Positionen der Spreizschwertwinkel schematisch dargestellt. Es zeigen die gestrichelten Linien die ausgefahrene und nicht gespreizte Position der Spreizschwertwinkel, während die strichpunktierten Linien die ausgefahrenen und gespreizten Positionen der Spreizschwertwinkel veranschaulichen. In dieser durch strichpunktierte Linien veranschaulichten Position beaufschlagen die Spreizschwertwinkel 110 die Rollen 210, wobei in diesem Zustand mit nicht angezogenen Befestigungsschrauben 254 eine entsprechende Verschiebung der Rollen 210 mittels der Beaufschlagung durch die Spreizschwertwinkel 110 bewirkt wird, falls die Rollen 210 nicht exakt symmetrisch bezüglich der Spreizschwertwinkel positioniert sind.By way of illustration, in FIG. 2 the positions of the Spreizschwertwinkel shown schematically. The dashed lines show the extended and non-splayed position of the spreader blade angles, while the dotted lines illustrate the extended and splayed positions of the spreader blade angles. In this position illustrated by dash-dotted lines, the Spreizschwertwinkel 110 act on the rollers 210, wherein In this state, with not tightened fastening screws 254, a corresponding displacement of the rollers 210 is effected by the action of the Spreizschwertwinkel 110, if the rollers 210 are not positioned exactly symmetrical with respect to the Spreizschwertwinkel.

Nach Beendigung dieses Kopplungsvorgangs und einer eventuellen Verschiebung der Montageplatte 250 mittels Beaufschlagung der Rollen 210 durch den Spreizschwertwinkel 110 sind die Rollen 210 in ihrer optimalen bzw. optimierten Lage bzgl. der Spreizschwertwinkel 110 positioniert.After completion of this coupling process and a possible displacement of the mounting plate 250 by acting on the rollers 210 by the Spreizschwertwinkel 110, the rollers 210 are positioned in their optimal or optimized position with respect. The Spreizschwertwinkel 110.

Anschließend werden die Schachttür 80 und die Fahrkorbtür 90 wieder entkoppelt (Schritt 470) (d.h. die Beaufschlagung der Gegenmitnahmemittel durch die Mitnahmemittel wird beendet) und die entkoppelte Fahrkorbtür noch einmal (z.B. manuell) geöffnet (Schritt 480). Die Montageplatte 250 befindet sich nun, wie erwähnt, in der optimalen bzw. gewünschten Position, um eine symmetrische und gleichzeitige Beaufschlagung der Rollen 210 bzgl. der Spreizschwertwinkel 110 bei weiteren Kopplungsvorgängen zu gewährleisten. Diese Position kann nun durch einfaches Anziehen der Schrauben 254 fixiert werden (Schritt 490). Schließlich wird die Fixierung der Schachttüren wieder gelöst (Schritt 500). Der Positionierungs- bzw. Einstellvorgang ist hiermit beendet, und kann für jedes weitere Stockwerk wiederholt werden.Subsequently, the hoistway door 80 and the car door 90 are decoupled again (step 470) (i.e., the loading of the counter-drive means by the entrainment means is terminated) and the decoupled car door is opened again (e.g., manually) (step 480). The mounting plate 250 is now, as mentioned, in the optimal or desired position, in order to ensure a symmetrical and simultaneous loading of the rollers 210 with respect to the expansion blade angle 110 during further coupling operations. This position can now be fixed by simply tightening the screws 254 (step 490). Finally, the fixing of the shaft doors is released again (step 500). The positioning process is now complete and can be repeated for each additional floor.

Gegenüber herkömmlichen Positionierungsverfahren schafft die erfindungsgemäße Lösung eine signifikante Zeitersparnis, da die Gegenmitnahmemittel bereits bei der ersten Beaufschlagung bzw. Wechselwirkung mit den Mitnahmemitteln in die gewünschte Position an der Schachttür verfahrbar sind.Compared to conventional positioning method, the solution according to the invention provides a significant time savings, since the counter-driving means are already in the first position or interaction with the driving means in the desired position on the shaft door movable.

Mitnahmemittel und Gegenmitnahmemittel sind allein aufgrund ihrer eigenen Wechselwirkung optimal zueinander positionierbar. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zeichnet sich auch durch erhöhte Sicherheit aus, da der gesamte Positionierungsvorgang durch einen Monteur, der sich innerhalb des Fahrkorbs befindet, ausgeführt werden kann.Carrier and counter-drive means are optimally positioned to each other only because of their own interaction. The method according to the invention is also characterized by increased safety, since the entire positioning process can be carried out by an installer located inside the car.

Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung ist es insbesondere möglich, die Gegenmitnahmemittel, also die Rollen 210, an der Schachttür ungefähr auf halber Höhe der Schachttür bzw. der Fahrkorbtür anzuordnen. Durch eine derartige Kopplung auf halber Höhe der zu koppelnden Türen ist ein schnelleres anschließendes Öffnen bzw. Schließen der gekoppelten Türen möglich. Auch ist hierdurch eine gleichmäßigere Belastung der Türen während des Öffnens bzw. Schließens gewährleistet. Im Falle einer herkömmlichen Kopplung in der Nähe der oberen Kante der Türen wirken insgesamt, insbesondere im Bereich der unteren Kante, relativ große Momente auf die einzelnen Türen.With the solution according to the invention, it is in particular possible to arrange the counter-drive means, that is to say the rollers 210, on the shaft door approximately at half the height of the shaft door or the car door. By such a coupling at half the height of the doors to be coupled a faster subsequent opening or closing of the coupled doors is possible. This also ensures a more even load on the doors during opening or closing. In the case of a conventional coupling in the vicinity of the upper edge of the doors act overall, especially in the region of the lower edge, relatively large moments on the individual doors.
