Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Duschabtrennung mit einer durch eine Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit aktiv in die Endstellungen bewegbaren Tür oder Schiebetür gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Patentanspruch 1.The invention relates to a shower enclosure with an active by a spring-damper unit in the end positions movable door or sliding door according to the preamble of claim 1.

Auf dem Gebiet der Schiebetüren ist es bekannt, diese mit Feder-Dämpfereinheiten zu versehen, die die Türblätter der Schiebetüren bei der manuellen Bewegung in die geöffnete oder geschlossene Stellung mit einer Kraft beaufschlagen, die das jeweilige Türblatt zunächst verzögert und dann aktiv, d.h. selbstständig ohne ein weiteres Eingreifen des Benutzers, in die Endposition bewegt.In the field of sliding doors, it is known to provide these with spring-damper units which act upon the door leaves of the sliding doors during manual movement to the open or closed position with a force which initially delays the respective door leaf and then actively, i. automatically without further intervention of the user, moved to the final position.

In diesem Zusammenhang ist aus der US 3,278,979 eine lediglich an einem Anschlag der Schiebetür wirkende Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit bekannt, die eine Zugfeder umfasst, die sich im Zentrum eines Innenrohres erstreckt, welches teleskopisch in einem Außenrohr geführt ist. Das eine Ende der Zugfeder ist hierbei an einer mit dem Türrahmen gekoppelten Endkappe befestigt, welche das Innenrohr abschließt; und das zweite Ende der Zugfeder greift in eine mit dem Türblatt der Schiebetür gekoppelte Endkappe ein, welche das freie Ende des Außenrohres abdeckt. Die Dämpfung der lediglich in einer Anschlagsposition der Schiebetür wirkenden Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit ist über eine Strömungsdrossel veränderbar, welche eine den Innenraum des Innenrohres mit dem umgebenden Luftraum verbindende Bohrung umfasst, in die ein Drosselelement mehr oder minder weit einschraubbar ist.In this context is from the US 3,278,979 a spring-damper unit acting only on a stop of the sliding door, which comprises a tension spring which extends in the center of an inner tube, which is guided telescopically in an outer tube. One end of the tension spring is fastened here to an end cap which is coupled to the door frame and closes off the inner tube; and the second end of the tension spring engages in an end cap coupled to the door leaf of the sliding door which covers the free end of the outer tube. The damping of the force acting only in a stop position of the sliding door spring-damper unit is variable via a flow restrictor, which is an interior of the inner tube with the surrounding air space includes connecting bore into which a throttle element is more or less screwed.

Obwohl die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit selbst einen sehr kompakten Aufbau besitzt, ist diese lediglich einseitig wirkend und erlaubt es nicht, die Bewegung des Schiebetürblatts sowohl in der Zu-Stellung, als auch in der Auf-Stellung aktiv zu unterstützen.Although the spring-damper unit itself has a very compact design, this is only one-sided and does not allow to actively support the movement of the sliding door leaf both in the closed position and in the open position.

Weiterhin ist aus der DE 10 2008 009 046 B4 eine Schiebetür mit einer doppeltwirkenden Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit bekannt, welche auf dem oberen Rand des bewegbaren Türblatts montiert ist und beim Erreichen einer der beiden Endstellungen über sich in vertikaler Richtung erstreckende Eingriffselemente aktiviert wird, die mit Aktivierungselementen zusammenwirken, welche sich von oben her in die Bewegungsbahn der Eingriffselemente hinein erstrecken.Furthermore, from the DE 10 2008 009 046 B4 a sliding door with a double-acting spring-damper unit is known, which is mounted on the upper edge of the movable door leaf and is activated when reaching one of the two end positions over vertically extending engagement elements, which cooperate with activation elements, which extend from above into extend the trajectory of the engagement elements into it.

Da die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit am oberen Rand des verschiebbaren Türblatts befestigt ist, weist die Vorrichtung eine vergleichsweise große Bauhöhe auf, was dazu führt, dass sich bei einer vorgegebenen Rahmenhöhe die Durchtrittshöhe der Schiebetür verringert und der optische Eindruck nachteilig beeinträchtigt wird.Since the spring-damper unit is attached to the upper edge of the sliding door panel, the device has a comparatively large overall height, which means that at a given frame height, the passage height of the sliding door is reduced and the visual impression is adversely affected.

Demgemäß ist es eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Duschabtrennung mit doppelt wirkender Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit zu schaffen, welche eine verringerte Bauhöhe besitzt.Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a shower enclosure with double-acting spring-damper unit which has a reduced height.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch eine Duschabtrennung mit den Merkmalen von Anspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a shower enclosure with the features of claim 1.

Weitere Merkmale sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten.Further features are contained in the subclaims.

Gemäß der Erfindung umfasst eine Duschabtrennung mit einer zwischen einer Auf-Stellung und einer Zu-Stellung verschiebbaren Tür, vorzugsweise einer Glastür, die an ihrer Oberseite über Führungselemente in einer ortsfesten Schiene geführt wird, eine Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit, die die verschiebbare Tür beim Bewegen in die Auf-Stellung oder Zu-Stellung aktiv in die jeweilige Endstellung bewegt. Die Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit, die mindestens ein Feder- und Dämpferelement enthält, in einer Aussparung am oberen Rand des Türblatts aufgenommen ist, und dass vorzugsweise an der ortsfesten Schiene Aktivierungselemente vorgesehen sind, die sich in die Bewegungsbahn der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit hineinerstrecken und mit der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit vor dem Erreichen der jeweiligen Endstellung der Auf-Stellung oder Zu-Stellung in Eingriff gelangen.According to the invention comprises a shower enclosure with a movable between an open position and a closed position door, preferably a glass door, which is guided at its top via guide elements in a fixed rail, a spring-damper unit, the sliding door during Moving into the open position or closed position actively moved to the respective end position. The invention is characterized in that the spring-damper unit, which contains at least one spring and damper element, is received in a recess at the upper edge of the door leaf, and that preferably on the stationary rail activation elements are provided, which are in the trajectory of the Move in spring-damper unit and engage with the spring-damper unit before reaching the respective end position of the open position or closed position in engagement.

Durch die Erfindung ergibt sich der Vorteil, dass die Durchtrittshöhe der Schiebetür weiter vergrößert werden kann, da die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit in der Aussparung aufgenommen ist und somit die Führungselemente der Tür, bei denen es sich bevorzugt um Rollen handelt, in derselben, horizontal verlaufenden Ebene wie die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit angeordnet werden können. Hierdurch lässt sich wiederum in vorteilhafter Weise eine deutlich kompaktere Bauform der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit sowie der Führungselemente in der oberen Schiene erhalten, die wiederum eine flachere Bauweise der Schiene selbst ermöglicht und dadurch zu einer insgesamt flacheren Bauweise führt.The invention provides the advantage that the passage height of the sliding door can be further increased, since the spring-damper unit is received in the recess and thus the guide elements of the door, which are preferably rollers in the same, horizontal extending level as the spring-damper unit can be arranged. As a result, in turn advantageously a much more compact design of the spring-damper unit and the guide elements in the upper rail can be obtained, which in turn allows a flatter construction of the rail itself and thereby leads to an overall flatter design.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend mit Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen anhand einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform beispielhaft beschrieben.The invention will be described below by way of example with reference to the drawings with reference to a preferred embodiment.

Wie in den Figuren 1 bis 9 gezeigt ist, umfasst eine erfindungsgemäße Duschabtrennung 1 eine zwischen einer Auf-Stellung 2 und einer Zu-Stellung 4 verschiebbare Tür, die ein Türblatt 6 besitzt, das vorzugsweise aus gehärtetem Glas besteht und an seiner Oberseite über Führungselemente 10a, 10b in einer ortsfesten Schiene 12 geführt wird. Die Schiene 12 ist vorzugsweise der Querträger eines Türrahmens, innerhalb von welchem das Türblatt bewegbar ist. Wie den Darstellungen der Figuren 1 bis 7 weiterhin entnommen werden kann, ist am oberen Rand 8 des Türblatts 6 eine vorzugsweise rechteckige, nach oben hin offene, d.h. im Wesentlichen U-förmige Aussparung 16 in das Türblatt eingebracht, in der eine Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 aufgenommen ist, die das Türblatt 6 beim Bewegen in die Auf-Stellung 2 oder Zu-Stellung 4 aktiv in die jeweilige Endstellung 2a, 4a bewegt. Die Befestigung der Duschabtrennung 1 sowie der Schiene 12 erfolgt bevorzugt über Schrauben, die in zugehörige Dübel in den nicht gezeigten seitlichen Wänden oder im Bereich der Decke eingeschraubt werden.As in the FIGS. 1 to 9 1, a door partition 1 according to the invention comprises a door displaceable between an open position 2 and an open position 4, which has a door leaf 6, which preferably consists of tempered glass and at its upper side via guide elements 10a, 10b in a stationary rail 12 to be led. The rail 12 is preferably the cross member of a door frame within which the door leaf is movable. As the representations of FIGS. 1 to 7 can be removed, at the upper edge 8 of the door panel 6 is a preferably rectangular, upwardly open, ie substantially U-shaped recess 16 is inserted into the door leaf, in which a spring-damper unit 14 is received, which is the door leaf 6 actively moves into the respective end position 2a, 4a when moving in the up position 2 or 4 to position. The attachment of the shower enclosure 1 and the rail 12 takes place preferably via screws which are screwed into associated dowels in the side walls, not shown, or in the area of the ceiling.

Die Aussparung 16 am oberen Rand 8 des Türblatts 6, in der die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 angeordnet ist, besitzt vorzugsweise eine solche Länge, dass das Gehäuse 28 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 vollumfänglich mit geringem Spiel darin aufgenommen werden kann.The recess 16 at the upper edge 8 of the door panel 6, in which the spring-damper unit 14 is arranged, preferably has such a length that the housing 28 of the spring-damper unit 14 can be fully accommodated therein with little play.

An der Schiene 12 sind Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b angeordnet, die sich bevorzugt von oben her in die Bewegungsbahn der vorzugsweise verschwenkbaren Eingriffselemente 20, 22 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 hinein erstrecken, um mit diesen vor dem Erreichen der jeweiligen Endstellung 2a, 4a des Türblatts 6 in der Auf-Stellung 2 bzw. Zu-Stellung 4 der Tür in Eingriff zu gelangen.On the rail 12 activation elements 18a, 18b are arranged, which preferably extend from above into the path of movement of the preferably pivotable engagement elements 20, 22 of the spring-damper unit 14 in order with these before reaching the respective end position 2a, 4a of the Door leaf 6 in the open position 2 and closed position 4 of the door into engagement.

Die Befestigung der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 am Türblatt 6 erfolgt vorzugsweise über Bohrungen im Türblatt, die jeweils seitlich versetzt und in einem Abstand von z.B. 10 bis 20 mm vom Rand der Aussparung 16 sowie auch vom oberen Rand des Türblatts in dieses eingebracht sind.The attachment of the spring-damper unit 14 on the door leaf 6 is preferably via holes in the door leaf, each offset laterally and at a distance of e.g. 10 to 20 mm from the edge of the recess 16 and also from the upper edge of the door leaf are introduced into this.

In vorteilhafter Weise ist die Aussparung 16 asymmetrisch zwischen den vertikalen Rändern des Türblatts 6 angeordnet, d.h. seitlich im Abstand von der vertikalen Mittenachse des Türblatts, wie dies z.B. in Fig. 5 angedeutet ist. Durch diese asymmetrische Anordnung der Aussparung 16 und der darin aufgenommenen Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 eröffnet sich die Möglichkeit, bei schmalen und leichten Türblättern, die lediglich durch zwei Führungselemente in der Schiene 12 geführt werden, eine der Befestigungsbohrungen für die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 außenliegend im Bereich des einen Längsrandes des Türblatts 6 anzuordnen. Dabei dient die Befestigungsbohrung in vorteilhafter Weise gleichzeitig als Aufnahme für das vorzugsweise als Führungsrolle 46 ausgestaltete Führungselement 10a, welches das Türblatt 6 auf seiner einen Seite trägt und gleichzeitig in der über dem Türblatt verlaufenden Schiene 12 führt. Bei dieser Ausführungsform der Erfindung dient die Befestigungsbohrung vorzugsweise weiterhin zur Aufnahme eines Verstellexzenters 50, der vorzugsweise als Hülse mit einer exzentrischen Bohrung ausgebildet ist, durch die sich ein Exzenterbolzen 52 hindurch erstreckt, derart, dass durch Rotieren des Verstellexzenters 50 der Abstand zwischen dem Drehzentrum der Führungsrolle 46 und der oberen Kante des Türblatts 6 verändert werden kann. Hierdurch kann in vorteilhafter Weise bei zwei Führungsrollen 46, 48 die Neigung des Türblatts 6, bzw. bei mehreren Führungsrollen die Lastverteilung zwischen den Führungsrollen 46, 48 durch Verdrehen des Exzenterbolzens 52 mit geringem Aufwand verändert werden.Advantageously, the recess 16 is arranged asymmetrically between the vertical edges of the door leaf 6, that is laterally spaced from the vertical center axis of the door leaf, as in eg Fig. 5 is indicated. This asymmetric arrangement of the recess 16 and the spring-damper unit 14 accommodated therein opens up the possibility of one of the fastening bores for the spring-damper unit in the case of narrow and light door leaves, which are guided only by two guide elements in the rail 12 14 outside to arrange in the region of one longitudinal edge of the door panel 6. The mounting hole is advantageously used at the same time as a receptacle for preferably designed as a guide roller 46 guide member 10a, which carries the door leaf 6 on its one side and at the same time in the above the door leaf extending rail 12 leads. In this embodiment of the invention, the mounting hole is preferably further for receiving an adjusting eccentric 50, which is preferably designed as a sleeve with an eccentric bore through which an eccentric pin 52nd extends such that by rotating the adjusting eccentric 50, the distance between the center of rotation of the guide roller 46 and the upper edge of the door panel 6 can be changed. As a result, in an advantageous manner with two guide rollers 46, 48, the inclination of the door leaf 6, or at several guide rollers, the load distribution between the guide rollers 46, 48 are changed by turning the eccentric pin 52 with little effort.

Bei dieser Ausführungsform ist der Verstellexzenter 50, das heißt die Hülse mit der exzentrischen Bohrung, auf der Frontseite des Türblatts 6 vorzugsweise in einer mit der Befestigungsbohrung im Türblatt 6 fluchtenden Bohrung des Gehäuses 28 drehbar gelagert, welche in einem laschenartigen Vorsprung 28a des Gehäuses 28 geformt ist, der sich auf der Frontseite des Türblatts 6 über die Aussparung 16 hinaus in horizontaler Richtung erstreckt. Wie den Darstellungen der Figuren 1-7 in diesem Zusammenhang weiterhin entnommen werden kann, ist auf der dem Vorsprung 28a gegenüberliegenden Seite des Gehäuses 28, welches bevorzugt aus Stahlblech besteht, vorzugsweise ebenfalls ein zweiter laschenartiger Vorsprung 28b geformt, über welchen das Gehäuse 28 auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite der Aussparung 16 mit Hilfe eines Bolzens am Türblatt 6 befestigt ist.In this embodiment, the adjusting eccentric 50, that is, the sleeve with the eccentric bore, on the front side of the door leaf 6 is preferably rotatably mounted in a bore of the housing 28 aligned with the mounting hole in the door leaf 6, which is formed in a tab-like projection 28 a of the housing 28 is that extends on the front side of the door panel 6 over the recess 16 also in the horizontal direction. As the representations of Figures 1-7 can still be taken in this context, on the opposite side of the projection 28 a of the housing 28, which preferably consists of sheet steel, preferably also a second tab-like projection 28 b is formed, via which the housing 28 on the opposite side of the recess 16 by means of a Bolzens is attached to the door leaf 6.

Gemäß der Darstellung der Fig. 7 sind bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 und die Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b in einer zur Ebene 7 des Türblatts 6 seitlich versetzten Ebene 26 angeordnet. Hierdurch ergibt sich der Vorteil, dass das Türblatt 6 in der Schiene 12 möglichst weit oben, d.h. mit einem minimalen Abstand zwischen der oberen Türkante und der dieser zugewandten Unterseite der Schiene 12 positioniert werden kann, da sich die Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b in diesem Falle seitlich neben dem Türblatt 6 in den Bewegungsbereich der Eingriffselemente 20, 22 hinein erstrecken. Dadurch lässt sich die Bauhöhe der Schiene 12 weiter verringern und die Durchtrittshöhe der Duschabtrennung 1 entsprechend vergrößern.According to the presentation of the Fig. 7 In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the spring-damper unit 14 and the activation elements 18a, 18b are arranged in a plane 26 laterally offset from the plane 7 of the door leaf 6. This results in the advantage that the door leaf 6 in the rail 12 as far as possible, ie with a minimum distance between the upper door edge and this facing bottom of the rail 12 can be positioned because the activation elements 18a, 18b in this case laterally in addition to the door leaf 6 in the range of movement of the engagement elements 20, 22 extend into it. As a result, the overall height of the rail 12 can be further reduced and the passage height of the shower enclosure 1 can be correspondingly increased.

Bei der zuletzt beschriebenen Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist es im Hinblick auf eine weitere Reduzierung der Bauhöhe weiterhin von besonderem Vorteil, wenn die Führungsrollen 46, 48 und die Eingriffselemente 20, 22 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 auf einander gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Türblatts 6 angeordnet sind.In the last-described embodiment of the invention, it is furthermore of particular advantage with regard to a further reduction of the overall height if the guide rollers 46, 48 and the engagement elements 20, 22 of the spring-damper unit 14 are arranged on opposite sides of the door leaf 6 ,

Wie in den Figuren 1, 2, 5 und 6 ferner gezeigt ist, können an den jeweiligen Enden 38, 40 der Schiene 12 gummielastische Anschläge 42, 44 vorgesehen sein, welche ein Herausspringen der Führungselemente 10a, 10b aus der Schiene 12 in der jeweiligen Endstellung 2a, 4a verhindern. Die gummielastischen Anschläge 42, 44 weisen vorzugsweise eine den Führungselementen 10a, 10b angepasste Form auf, die eine in den Endstellungen 2a, 4a nahezu formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen den Anschlägen 42, 44 und den jeweiligen Führungselementen 10a, 10b, erzeugt. Die gummielastischen Anschläge 42, 44 dienen dabei gleichzeitig auch als mechanischer Endanschlag, um das Aufprallen des Türblatts 6 auf die Seitenwand bzw. den seitlichen vertikalen Pfosten der Duschabtrennung 1 zu dämpfen. Besonders bei einem Türblatt 6 aus Glas können dadurch Schäden an dem Türblatt 6 wirksam verhindert werden.As in the FIGS. 1 . 2 . 5 and 6 12, rubber-elastic stops 42, 44 can be provided at the respective ends 38, 40 of the rail 12, which prevent the guide elements 10a, 10b from jumping out of the rail 12 in the respective end position 2a, 4a. The rubber-elastic abutments 42, 44 preferably have a shape adapted to the guide elements 10a, 10b, which produces a connection, which is virtually positive in the end positions 2a, 4a, between the stops 42, 44 and the respective guide elements 10a, 10b. The rubber-elastic stops 42, 44 serve at the same time as a mechanical end stop to dampen the impact of the door panel 6 on the side wall or the lateral vertical post of the shower enclosure 1. Damage to the door leaf 6 can be effectively prevented in particular with a door leaf 6 made of glass.

Nach einer weiteren Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Duschabtrennung 1 umfasst die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14, wie bereits zuvor erwähnt, Eingriffselemente 20 und 22, die vorzugsweise jeweils um nicht näher bezeichnete Schwenkachsen verschwenkbar am Gehäuse 28 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 geführt sind, und auf die das Feder- und Dämpferelement 24 wirkt. Dies ermöglicht einen sehr kompakten und mechanisch einfachen Aufbau der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14, ohne dass beispielsweise weitere Hebel zum Verschwenken der Eingriffselemente 20, 22 bzw. zur Einleitung und Umlenkung der von den Eingriffselementen 20, 22 auf die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 übertragenen Kräfte erforderlich sind, die insbesondere beim Abbremsen und Beschleunigen des Türblatts 6 auftreten.According to a further embodiment of the shower enclosure 1 according to the invention, the spring-damper unit 14, as already mentioned, engaging elements 20 and 22, which are preferably each pivotally guided about unspecified pivot axes on the housing 28 of the spring-damper unit 14, and on the spring and damper element 24 acts. This allows a very compact and mechanically simple design of the spring-damper unit 14, without, for example, further levers for pivoting the engagement elements 20, 22 and for initiating and deflecting the engagement elements 20, 22 on the spring-damper unit 14th transmitted forces are required, which occur in particular during deceleration and acceleration of the door panel 6.

Das Gehäuse 28 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 besitzt hierzu vorzugsweise zwei paarweise einander gegenüberliegend in die Seitenwände des Gehäuses 28 eingebrachte L- oder J-förmige Führungsschlitze 30, in denen die verschwenkbaren Eingriffselemente 20, 22 im Gehäuse 28 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 durch zwei im Abstand zueinander angeordnete Führungsbolzen 32, 33, 34, 35 geführt werden. Durch diese Ausgestaltung ergibt sich der Vorteil, dass die Eingriffselemente 20, 22 beim Erreichen des abgerundeten bogenförmigen Eckbereichs der L- oder J-förmigen Führungsschlitze 30 der Kurvenbahn des jeweiligen Führungsschlitzes 30 folgend eine Schwenkbewegung ausführen. Diese Schwenkbewegung führt dazu, dass das betreffende Eingriffselement 20, 22 aus einer ersten Stellung, in der die Führungsbolzen 32, 33, 34, 35 und mit diesen das Eingriffselement 20, 22 in einem langen Abschnitt des jeweiligen L- oder J-förmigen Führungsschlitzes 30 in Längsrichtung des Gehäuses 28 linear frei verschiebbar sind, in einen vertikal verlaufenden kurzen Abschnitt des jeweiligen L- oder J-förmigen Führungsschlitzes 30 gelangt, in dem eine Verschiebung in Längsrichtung des Gehäuses 28, d.h. parallel zur oberen Kante des Türblatts 6 gehemmt ist. Dies ermöglicht es, dass die vom auseinander gezogenen, gespannten Feder- und Dämpferelement 24 beim freien Bewegen des Türblatts 6 zwischen den Aktivierungselementen 18a, 18b ausgeübten Zugkräfte vollständig in das Gehäuse 28 eingeleitet werden, so dass die in das Feder- und Dämpferelement 24 beim manuellen Verschieben des Türblatts 6 aus einer der beiden Endpositionen eingeleitete Energie gespeichert wird und beim Passieren eines Aktivierungselements 18a, 18b dazu genutzt werden kann, das Türblatt 6 aktiv in die jeweilige Endstellung 2a, 4a zu ziehen.The housing 28 of the spring-damper unit 14 has this two preferably opposite each other in the side walls of the housing 28 introduced L or J-shaped guide slots 30, in which the pivotable engagement elements 20, 22 in the housing 28 of the spring-damper unit 14 by two spaced-apart guide pins 32, 33, 34, 35 are guided. By this configuration, there is the advantage that the engagement elements 20, 22 when reaching the rounded arcuate corner region of the L- or J-shaped guide slots 30 of the curved path of the respective guide slot 30th following a pivoting movement. This pivoting movement causes the respective engagement element 20, 22 from a first position in which the guide pins 32, 33, 34, 35 and with these the engagement element 20, 22 in a long portion of the respective L- or J-shaped guide slot 30th are linearly freely displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the housing 28, in a vertically extending short section of the respective L- or J-shaped guide slot 30, in which a displacement in the longitudinal direction of the housing 28, that is inhibited parallel to the upper edge of the door panel 6. This allows the tensile forces exerted by the tensioned, tensioned spring and damper element 24 to be freely moved between the activation elements 18a, 18b during free movement of the door leaf 6, being completely introduced into the housing 28, so that the spring and damper element 24 are moved manually Moving the door panel 6 is stored from one of the two end positions introduced energy and when passing an activation element 18a, 18b can be used to actively pull the door leaf 6 in the respective end position 2a, 4a.

Eine weitere Verringerung der beim Abbremsen sowie auch beim Beschleunigen des Türblatts 6 wirkenden Momente lässt sich weiterhin dadurch erreichen, dass die Eingriffselemente 20, 22 sowie auch das Feder- und Dämpferelement 24 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14, wie in Figur 7 gezeigt, in einer Ebene 26 angeordnet sind, bei der es sich vorzugsweise um dieselbe Ebene handelt, in der sich auch die Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b erstrecken.A further reduction of the moments acting on braking as well as on accelerating the door leaf 6 can be further achieved in that the engagement elements 20, 22 as well as the spring and damper element 24 of the spring-damper unit 14, as in FIG. 7 are arranged in a plane 26, which is preferably the same plane in which the activation elements 18a, 18b extend.

Nach einem weiteren der Erfindung zugrunde liegenden Gedanken ist das Feder- und Dämpferelement 24 der Feder-Dämper-Einheit 14, welches auf die verschwenkbaren Eingriffselemente 20, 22 wirkt, eine Gasdruckfeder und/oder Öldruckfeder, welche sowohl das Federelement, als auch das Dämpferelement als integrale Bauteile enthält. Die Gasdruck- und/oder Öldruckfeder ist dabei vorzugsweise über nicht näher gezeigte Gelenkverbindungen mit den Eingriffselementen 20, 22 gekoppelt und so ausgestaltet, dass diese die Wirkung einer Zugfeder mit integrierter Dämpfung besitzt, die vorzugsweise beim Zusammenziehen eine höhere Dämpfung aufweist, als beim Auseinanderfahren. Derartige Gasdruckfedern sind z.B. von Kraftfahrzeugen her bekannt, bei denen sie zur Unterstützung der Auf- und Schließbewegung von Heckklappen eingesetzt werden. Durch diese Ausführungsform der Erfindung ergibt sich der Vorteil, dass die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 als ein integrales Bauteil ausgeführt werden kann, welches sich beispielsweise durch eine Kunststoffummantelung mit einem vergleichsweise geringen Aufwand gegen eine Korrosion durch Spritzwasser oder Seifenrückstände etc. schützen lässt.According to another of the invention underlying idea is the spring and damper element 24 of the spring-damper unit 14, which acts on the pivotable engagement elements 20, 22, a gas spring and / or oil pressure spring, which both the spring element, and the damper element as contains integral components. The gas pressure and / or oil pressure spring is preferably coupled via not shown in detail hinges with the engagement elements 20, 22 and designed so that it has the action of a tension spring with integrated damping, which preferably has a higher damping during contraction than when moving apart. Such gas springs are known, for example, from motor vehicles, in which they are used to support the opening and closing movement of tailgates become. By this embodiment of the invention, there is the advantage that the spring-damper unit 14 can be designed as an integral component, which can be protected, for example, by a plastic jacket with a relatively low cost against corrosion by spray or soap residue etc.

Bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b an der Schiene 12 angeordnet, die hierzu vorzugsweise einen im Wesentlichen U-förmigen Querschnitt aufweist. Die U-förmige Schiene 12 ist dabei stehend zwischen den seitlichen Pfosten des Rahmens angeordnet, wie dies in den Figuren 1 bis 6 angedeutet ist derart, dass sich die Führungselemente 10a, 10b bzw. Führungsrollen 46, 48 auf der Innenseite des unteren Schenkels der Schiene 12 abstützen und die Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b an der Innenseite des oberen Schenkels befestigt sind. Die Befestigung der Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b erfolgt dabei bevorzugt in der Weise, dass die Position der Aktivierungselemente zumindest in Längsrichtung verstellbar ist, wozu diese beispielsweise in Langlöchern aufgenommen sein können. Hierbei kann es weiterhin vorgesehen sein, dass die Position der Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b auch in Querrichtung einstellbar ist, wozu die Elemente beispielsweise Exzenterbolzen mit einem Gewindeabschnitt aufweisen können, die durch die Langlöcher hindurch geführt sind und auf der Oberseite durch eine Gewindemutter oder dergleichen in den Langlöchern geklemmt werden, so dass nach einem Lösen der Gewindemutter die laterale Position des Exzenterbolzens durch Rotieren desselben gegenüber der Mittenachse des Langlochs veränderbar ist. Dadurch ergibt sich der Vorteil, dass die Duschabtrennung 1 mit geringem Aufwand an die jeweiligen Einbaumaße angepasst werden kann und Fertigungstoleranzen der eingesetzten Bauteile nach dem Einbau in kürzester Zeit korrigiert werden können.In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the activation elements 18a, 18b are arranged on the rail 12, which preferably has a substantially U-shaped cross section for this purpose. The U-shaped rail 12 is arranged standing between the side posts of the frame, as shown in the FIGS. 1 to 6 is indicated such that the guide elements 10a, 10b or guide rollers 46, 48 are supported on the inside of the lower leg of the rail 12 and the activation elements 18a, 18b are fixed to the inside of the upper leg. The attachment of the activation elements 18a, 18b is preferably carried out in such a way that the position of the activation elements is adjustable at least in the longitudinal direction, to which they may be included, for example, in slots. It may further be provided that the position of the activation elements 18a, 18b is adjustable in the transverse direction, including the elements may have, for example, eccentric with a threaded portion which are guided through the slots and on the top by a threaded nut or the like in the Long holes are clamped, so that after loosening the threaded nut, the lateral position of the eccentric pin by rotating the same relative to the center axis of the elongated hole is changeable. This results in the advantage that the shower enclosure 1 can be adapted with little effort to the respective mounting dimensions and manufacturing tolerances of the components used after installation can be corrected in the shortest possible time.

Nach einem weiteren der Erfindung zu Grunde liegenden Gedanken kann es vorgesehen sein, dass wenigstens zwei Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b mit unterschiedlichen Längen an der Schiene 12 befestigbar sind, und/oder dass die Aktivierungselemente 18a, 18b zusätzlich in ihrer Höhe verstellbar sind. Dadurch ergibt sich ein vergrößerter Einstellbereich in der vertikalen Richtung, so dass ein und dieselbe Schiene 12 für unterschiedliche Arten von Schiebetüren bzw. Türblättern 6 eingesetzt werden kann.According to another idea on which the invention is based, it can be provided that at least two activation elements 18a, 18b with different lengths can be fastened to the rail 12, and / or that the activation elements 18a, 18b can additionally be adjusted in height. This results in an enlarged adjustment range in the vertical direction, so that a and the same rail 12 can be used for different types of sliding doors or door leaves 6.

Bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist über der ortsfesten Schiene 12 ein in den Darstellungen nicht gezeigtes Abdeckprofil, beispielsweise ein Kunststoff- oder Blechprofil, angeordnet, welches die Sicht auf die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 und/oder die Führungselemente 10a, 10b verdeckt und diese zusätzlich gegen das Eindringen von Spritzwasser und Seifenrückständen schützt. Nachfolgend wird die Funktionsweise der erfindungsgemäßen Duschabtrennung 2 näher beschrieben. Die Figuren 1, 2, 3 und 4 zeigen hierbei jeweils einen Detailausschnitt der relevanten Positionen beim Verfahren des Türblatts 6 von der in Fig. 1 gezeigten Zu-Stellung 4 in die in Fig. 4 gezeigte Auf-Stellung 2, wobei die Positionen der Figuren 1 bis 4 in Fig. 5 untereinander als Gesamtübersicht wiedergegeben sind.In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a covering profile, not shown in the illustrations, for example a plastic or sheet metal profile, is arranged above the stationary rail 12, which obscures the view of the spring-damper unit 14 and / or the guide elements 10a, 10b and This additionally protects against the ingress of splashing water and soap residues. The operation of the shower enclosure 2 according to the invention will be described in more detail below. The FIGS. 1 . 2 . 3 and 4 each show a detail of the relevant positions in the process of the door panel 6 of the in Fig. 1 shown to position 4 in the in Fig. 4 shown on-position 2, the positions of the FIGS. 1 to 4 in Fig. 5 are reproduced together as an overall overview.

In der in Fig. 1 gezeigten geschlossenen Stellung 4 des Türblatts 6 ist die in Fig. 9 beispielhaft als Spiral-Zugfeder dargestellte Feder 56 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 entspannt und das Dämpferelement 58 vorzugsweise vollständig zusammengefahren. Das erste Eingriffselement 20 ist mit dem ersten Aktivierungselement 18a im Eingriff und das zweite Eingriffselement 22 befindet sich in seiner Verschwenk-Position, in der das Eingriffselement gegen ein axiales Verschieben innerhalb des Gehäuses 28 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 gesperrt ist. Das erste Führungselement 10a liegt am ersten gummielastischen Anschlag 42 an; und der in Fig. 1 rechte vertikale Längsrand des Türblatts 6 befindet sich in unmittelbarer Nähe zur angrenzenden Wand bzw. zum vertikalen Rahmenprofil, welches die Schiene 6 trägt.In the in Fig. 1 shown closed position 4 of the door panel 6 is in Fig. 9 exemplified as a spiral tension spring spring 56 of the spring-damper unit 14 relaxes and the damper element 58 preferably completely collapsed. The first engagement element 20 is engaged with the first activation element 18a and the second engagement element 22 is in its pivotal position in which the engagement element is locked against axial displacement within the housing 28 of the spring-damper unit 14. The first guide element 10a bears against the first rubber-elastic stop 42; and the in Fig. 1 Right vertical longitudinal edge of the door panel 6 is located in close proximity to the adjacent wall or the vertical frame profile, which carries the rail 6.

In Fig. 2 wird das Türblatt 6 von einem nicht gezeigten Benutzer von Hand manuell aus der Zu-Stellung 4 in Richtung der Auf-Stellung 2 verschoben, wobei die Figur den Zeitpunkt zeigt, zu welchem die Zu-Stellung 4 gerade verlassen wird. Das Türblatt 6 ist im Vergleich zu Fig. 1 in horizontaler Richtung nach links verschoben, die Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 ist gespannt und die beiden Eingriffselemente 20, 22 befinden sich in der verschwenkten Position, die in der vorliegenden Anmeldung auch als Verschwenk-Position bezeichnet wird, und in der die beiden Eingriffselemente 20, 22 in Längsrichtung des Gehäuses 28 der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 unverschiebbar im Gehäuse positioniert sind.In Fig. 2 the door leaf 6 is manually moved by a user, not shown manually from the closed position 4 in the direction of the open position 2, wherein the figure shows the time at which the to-position 4 is just left. The door leaf 6 is compared to Fig. 1 shifted in the horizontal direction to the left, the spring-damper unit 14 is stretched and the two engaging elements 20, 22 are in the pivoted position, which is also referred to in the present application as a pivoting position, and in which the two Engagement elements 20, 22 are positioned in the longitudinal direction of the housing 28 of the spring-damper unit 14 immovably in the housing.

Fig. 3 zeigt weiterhin den Zeitpunkt, zu welchem das Eingriffselement 22 in Eingriff mit dem zweiten Aktivierungselement 18b gelangt, bevor das Türblatt 6 die geöffnete Stellung 2 der Tür erreicht. Wie der Darstellung der Fig. 3 hierbei im Einzelnen entnommen werden kann, befindet sich das Eingriffselement 22 noch in der Verschwenk-Position und wird, wie in Fig. 4 gezeigt, durch das Aktivierungselement 18b aus der Verschwenk-Position in eine Verfahr-Position bewegt, in der sich der erste Führungsbolzen 34 des zweiten Eingriffselements 22 aus dem vertikalen kurzen Teil in den horizontalen langen Teil des Führungsschlitzes 30 hinein bewegt und das zweite Eingriffselement 22 durch die beiden Führungsbolzen 34 und 35 geführt linear in Längsrichtung des Gehäuses 28 verschoben werden kann. Nachdem das zweite Eingriffselement 22 mit dem Aktivierungselement 18b in Eingriff gelangt ist, zieht die zu diesem Zeitpunkt gespannte Feder des Feder- und Dämpferelements 24 das Türblatt 6 aktiv, d.h. ohne Eingreifen des Benutzers, in die Auf-Stellung 2, wobei die Bewegung zumindest in der Endphase der Bewegung vor dem Erreichen der Endstellung 2a durch das Dämpferelement der Feder-Dämpfer-Einheit 14 gedämpft wird. Fig. 3 Fig. 14 also shows the time when the engagement element 22 engages the second activation element 18b before the door leaf 6 reaches the open position 2 of the door. As the representation of Fig. 3 In this case can be taken in detail, the engagement member 22 is still in the pivoting position and is, as in Fig. 4 shown moved by the activation element 18 b from the pivoting position to a travel position in which the first guide pin 34 of the second engagement member 22 moves from the vertical short part in the horizontal long part of the guide slot 30 and the second engagement member 22 by the two guide pins 34 and 35 guided linearly in the longitudinal direction of the housing 28 can be moved. After the second engaging element 22 has come into engagement with the activating element 18b, the spring of the spring and damper element 24, which is tensioned at this time, actively pulls the door leaf 6, ie without user intervention, into the open position 2, wherein the movement is at least in the final phase of the movement before reaching the end position 2a is damped by the damper element of the spring-damper unit 14.

Die einzelnen, zuvor durchlaufenden Positionen sind als Übersicht noch einmal in Fig. 5 ausschnittsweise wiedergegeben, wobei die oberste Darstellung der Fig. 5 die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Position und die unterste Darstellung die in Fig. 4 gezeigte Position wiedergibt.The individual, previously traversing positions are again in overview Fig. 5 reproduced in sections, the top representation of the Fig. 5 in the Fig. 1 shown position and the lowest representation the in Fig. 4 shown position.
