Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Rolladen für Stauöffnungen in Kastenmöbeln, wobei eine Vielzahl von aneinandergelenkten Rolladenprofilen in seitlichen, U-förmigen Profilführungsschienen geführt sind, und wobei in den Rolladenantrieb ein Gewichtsausgleich eingesetzt ist, welcher ein ungewolltes Zu- und Auffahren des Rolladens verhindert, wobei der Gewichtsausgleich ein einstückiges, durchgehendes Seil ist, welches mit seinen freien Enden an einem Rolladenprofil befestigt ist und über wenigstens zwei Umlenkungen nach Art des Flaschenzugprinzips geführt ist, daß zwischen den Umlenkungen eine Feder und zwischen Schrankinnenwänden über Haupthalter eine Achse befestigt ist.The invention relates to a roller shutter for storage openings in cabinet furniture, one Large number of hinged roller shutter profiles in side, U-shaped profile guide rails are guided, and wherein a weight balance is used in the roller shutter drive is, which prevents unintentional closing and opening of the roller shutter, the Weight balancing is a one-piece, continuous rope, which with its free Is attached to a roller shutter profile and after at least two deflections Type of pulley principle is that a spring and between the deflections an axis is fastened between the inner walls of the cabinet via the main bracket.

In dem Deutschen Gebrauchsmuster 91 03 919.3 ist ein gattungsgemäßer Rolladen beschrieben. Dieser Rolladen minimiert den erforderlichen Aufwand zum Spannen der Feder, da diese bei zunehmendem Gebrauch mehr und mehr von ihrer Vorspannung verliert. Außerdem ist ein Antriebssystem angegeben, bei dem zum Spannen der Torsionsfeder ein Abbau des Bewegungssystemes von den seitlichen Begrenzungswänden des Rolladens nicht erforderlich ist. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, daß in das Lumen des Führungsrohres innenseitig eingesetzte Endkappen mit Teilbereichen aus dem Lumen herausragen. Von diesen Teilbereichen stehen am Umfang gleichmäßig verteilte zahnartige Vorsprünge über den äußeren Umfang des Führungsrohres vor. Diese Vorsprünge greifen in über die Achslänge der Zahnräder verlaufende korrespondierende, am inneren Umfang der Mittelbohrung der Zahnräder angeordnete Aufnahmenuten ein. Die Endkappen sind auf der Achse drehbeweglich gelagert und mit den Zahnrädern über mechanische Befestigungsmittel lösbar verbunden. Zum Vorspannen der Feder wird durch Drehen der Endkappen des Führungsrohres und der Mitnahme des äußeren Federendes das erforderliche Rückstellmoment für das Rolladengewicht eingestellt. A generic roller shutter is described in the German utility model 91 03 919.3. This roller shutter minimizes the effort required to tension the spring, as this loses more and more of its pretension with increasing use. In addition, a drive system is specified in which a for tensioning the torsion spring Removal of the movement system from the side boundary walls of the roller shutter is not required. This is achieved in that in the lumen of the guide tube Project end caps inserted on the inside with partial areas out of the lumen. From these sub-areas protrude evenly distributed tooth-like projections on the circumference the outer circumference of the guide tube. These projections reach beyond Axis length of the corresponding corresponding gear wheels, on the inner circumference of the Center bore of the gears arranged grooves. The end caps are on the Axis rotatably supported and with the gears via mechanical fasteners releasably connected. To preload the spring, turn the end caps of the Guide tube and driving the outer spring end the required Reset torque for the shutter weight set.

Dieses Rolladensystem erfüllt seine Aufgaben in der Praxis in anerkannter Weise, jedoch hat sich herausgestellt, daß durch die aufgesetzten Führungsschienen an den Seitenwänden ein Verlust in der lichten Breite des Schrankes entsteht.This roller shutter system does its job in practice in a recognized manner, however has been found that through the attached guide rails on the side walls there is a loss in the clear width of the cabinet.

In der lichten Höhe der Schränke entstehen Platzverluste durch den gewählten Aufbau.In the clear height of the cabinets, space is lost due to the chosen structure.

Ein weiterer gattungsgemäßer Rolladen ist in dem Deutschen Gebrauchsmuster 296 18 802.6 beschrieben.
Hierbei kommt ein Rolladen mit Gewichtsausgleich zum Einsatz, der technisch nicht aufwendig und kostengünstig herstellbar ist. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, daß der Gewichtsausgleich ein einstückiges, durchgehendes Seil ist, welches mit seinen freien Enden an einem Rolladenprofil befestigt ist und über wenigstens zwei Umlenkungen nach Art des Flaschenzugprinzipes geführt ist. Zwischen den Umlenkungen ist eine Druckfeder angeordnet, welche gegenüber der am Seil abgenommenen Kraft ein Vielfaches an Bewegungskraft federnd aufnimmt. Umgesetzt wird dies mit einem Aufbau aus Seil, Umlenkungen und Druckfeder, welche am oberen Rand des Rolladens geführt sind. Vorteilhaft wird hier gesehen, daß beim Öffnen der Rolladen nicht aufgewickelt, sondern hinter die Schrankrückwand geführt wird. Dadurch geht in der Schrankhöhe kein Platz verloren. Ein weiterer Vorteil dieses Systems sind die in die Schrankwand eingelassenen Führungsnuten, die die volle Nutzung der lichten Breite des Schrankes erlauben.
Another generic roller shutter is described in German utility model 296 18 802.6.
Here, a roller shutter with counterbalance is used, which is technically not complex and inexpensive to manufacture. This is achieved in that the weight compensation is a one-piece, continuous rope, which is attached with its free ends to a roller shutter profile and is guided over at least two deflections in the manner of the pulley principle. A compression spring is arranged between the deflections and absorbs a multiple of the movement force in a resilient manner compared to the force removed on the rope. This is implemented with a structure made of rope, deflections and compression springs, which are guided at the top of the roller shutter. It is advantageously seen here that when the roller shutters are opened, they are not wound up but guided behind the rear wall of the cabinet. This means that no space is lost in the cabinet height. Another advantage of this system is the guide grooves embedded in the cabinet wall, which allow full use of the clear width of the cabinet.

Dieses in der Praxis anerkannte Rolladensystem stößt jedoch an seine physikalischen Grenzen, wenn es gilt, sehr hohe und sehr schmale Schränke auszustatten. Aufgrund der verwendeten Flaschenzugmechanik und des damit darstellbaren Federweges treten Höhen- bzw. Breitenbegrenzungen auf, die eine optimale Funktion des Rolladens nicht erlauben.However, this roller shutter system, which is recognized in practice, encounters its physical Limits when it comes to equipping very high and very narrow cabinets. Due to the used pulley mechanism and the travel that can be represented Height or width limits that do not ensure that the roller shutter functions optimally allow.

Hier setzt die Erfindung ein, die es sich zur Aufgabe gestellt hat, die Nachteile des bekannten Standes der Technik dahingehend zu verbessern, daß hier eine Ausgleichsmechanik für Rolladensysteme realisiert wird, die es ermöglicht, die gesamte Palette der im Markt befindlichen Schrankgeometrien kostengünstig und störungsfrei abzudecken. This is where the invention, which has set itself the task, the disadvantages of known state of the art to improve the fact that here a compensation mechanism for roller shutter systems, which enables the entire range of im Cover cabinet geometries available on the market in a cost-effective and trouble-free manner.

Erfindungsgemäß wird dazu vorgeschlagen, daß an den freien Enden der Achse das Seil aufnehmende oder abgebende Wickeltrommeln angeordnet sind, und daß sich zwischen den Wickeltrommeln eine Torsionsfeder befindet, die mit ihrem einen freien Ende an einer der Wickeltrommeln und mit dem anderen freien Ende an der Achse angelenkt ist, und daß zwischen der Achse und der Torsionsfeder wenigstens ein Distanzelement angeordnet ist.According to the invention it is proposed that the rope at the free ends of the axis receiving or dispensing winding drums are arranged, and that between the winding drums is a torsion spring with one free end on a the winding drums and with the other free end is articulated on the axis, and that at least one spacer element is arranged between the axis and the torsion spring.

Vorteilhaft wird hier gesehen, daß durch den gewählten Aufbau nahezu die komplette Schrankhöhe dem Nutzer zur Verfügung steht. Auch gibt es hier keinerlei Einschränkungen bezüglich der auszustattenden Schrankhöhen und Schrankbreiten.
Durch die Verwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Distanzelementes wird ein Durchhängen der Torsionsfeder im unbelasteten Zustand verhindert, so daß bei Rotation der Ausgleichsmechanik Geräusche gar nicht erst entstehen können.
It is seen here as an advantage that almost the entire cabinet height is available to the user due to the chosen structure. There are also no restrictions regarding the cabinet heights and cabinet widths to be equipped.
By using the spacer element according to the invention, sagging of the torsion spring is prevented in the unloaded state, so that no noise can arise in the rotation of the compensating mechanism.

Ein weiterer entscheidender Vorteil wird darin gesehen, daß durch die Verwendung der erfindungsgemäßen Distanzelemente die unter Belastung verdrillte Torsionsfeder das Schutzrohr nicht kontaktiert. Damit wird verhindert, daß bei Rotation Geräusche entstehen und an der Innenwand des Schutzrohres Material abgetrieben wird. Die erfindungsgemäßen Distanzelemente müssen somit einen Außendurchmesser aufweisen, der kleiner ist, als der Innendurchmesser der Torsionsfeder.Another decisive advantage is seen in the fact that by using the Spacers according to the invention the torsion spring twisted under load Protection tube not contacted. This prevents noises from occurring during rotation and material is driven off on the inner wall of the protective tube. The invention Spacers must therefore have an outer diameter that is smaller is than the inner diameter of the torsion spring.

Die Torsionsfeder ist vorteilerhafterweise von einem Schutzrohr umgeben, das die freien Enden der Wickeltrommeln mit einschließt. Um dem Benutzer eine einfache und störungsfreie Handhabung des Rolladenschrankes zu gewährleisten, muß die Torsionsfeder so dimensioniert sein, daß das Rolladensystem mit einer Kraft von höchstens 50 N zu bewegen ist.
Dadurch kann die Torsionsfeder die nach vom und die nach hinten auftretenden Gewichtskräfte kompensieren.
Ein weiterer entscheidender Vorteil der Erfindung wird darin gesehen, daß diese leicht zu montierende Ausgleichsmechanik wartungsfrei arbeitet und kostengünstig herstellbar ist. Somit entsteht für den Anwender ein doppelter wirtschaftlicher Nutzen.
The torsion spring is advantageously surrounded by a protective tube, which includes the free ends of the winding drums. In order to ensure simple and trouble-free handling of the roller shutter cabinet for the user, the torsion spring must be dimensioned such that the roller shutter system can be moved with a force of at most 50 N.
As a result, the torsion spring can compensate for the weight forces occurring to and from the rear.
Another decisive advantage of the invention is seen in the fact that this easy-to-assemble compensation mechanism works maintenance-free and is inexpensive to manufacture. This creates a double economic benefit for the user.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Anwendung ist die Torsionsfeder mit ihrem einen freien Ende an das Schutzrohr angelenkt.
Durch den gewählten vorteilhaften Aufbau der Ausgleichsmechanik ist gewährleistet, daß der Seilhalter mit Erreichen des Punktes der geringsten Seilspannung über die das Seil aufnehmende oder abgebende Wickeltrommel gleitet.
In a further advantageous application, the torsion spring is articulated with one free end to the protective tube.
The chosen advantageous construction of the compensating mechanism ensures that the rope holder slides over the winding drum receiving or releasing the rope when the point of the lowest rope tension is reached.
