DE2065747A1 - Demountable partition wall rail-running elements - movable into closed position with compressed mutual sealing and extensible end sealing strips - Google Patents

Abstract

The folding partition comprises a number of wall elements which can be pushed against each other, running in rails, and sealed in the closed position by extensible and retractable seating stips to top and bottom, in relation to the floor and ceiling, and also pressed close against adjacent wall elements by means of closing hooks or other closing organs. When the wall is closed by movement into its end position, each individual element can be moved into this position with close pressure against the next element, and the top and bottom sealing strips are then extensible. A closing element can be installed as the final wall element, compressible against the adjacent element by means of a laterally extensible pressure strip, which can be opened out to attain full sealing pressure before the top and bottom sealing strips are extended.

In a known foldable wall, several foldable elements are permanently connected to one another by hinges. Such coherent units, consisting for example of three wall elements, are each suspended movably in the pivot axis of the individual wall elements with roller carriages on ceiling rails. The individual wall elements are provided with extendable and retractable sealing strips on the upper and lower end faces. The sealing strips of a unit consisting of several interconnected wall elements are jointly driven by a common actuating linkage from the side face of one of the edge elements, namely extended or retracted extends, divided into sections and which is composed of the abutting surfaces of the interconnected wall elements via couplings releasably such walls, however, are disadvantageous in-various ways, whereby this Geesthacht ropes result primarily from the non-detachable connection of belonging to a unit wall _elements..: - -

In this known partition is disadvantageous that the upper and the lower dieholding strips are subjected to a diehting pressure which is dependent on the contact pressure of the adjacent wall elements on each other. The sealing strips of the to be attached Wall element are already extended in a partial area while the wall element is still in motion, so that the Sealing strips on the ceiling and floor cause friction. Finally, it is unfavorable that the sealing strips of an individual wall element are not independent of their entirety adjacent wall elements can be extended and retracted.

The invention is based on the object of a wall, in particular Partition wall, made up of individual elements that can be set up, preferably not to propose wall elements connected to one another by hinges or the like, in which by various measures compared to previously known proposals, increased sound insulation and simple actuation is achieved.

The invention consists in that when closing ^ each individual The wall element can first be moved into the final closed position with a tight pressed position on the adjacent wall element and then the upper and lower sealing strips can be extended. The invention has recognized that to achieve a tight system adjacent wall elements to each other these pulled together or must be printed before the upper and lower sealing strips run against the deck (or support rail) and floor will. The sealing strips can then rest against the ceiling and floor with increased pressure. This way is optimal Sound insulation possible. In addition, the invention ensures attractive visible surfaces of the wall and wall elements, due to the tight contact of the wall elements a hardly interrupted image, in particular wood image, of the closed wall is made possible.

The invention is concerned with from individual wall elements 10 formed 'walls, in particular partition walls for division or subdivision of ^larger: f serve ißäumen or similar purposes. Pig, 1 shows a view of a wall composed of several wall elements 10, 11, namely this wall consists of several, essentially matching wall elements 10 and a closing element 11, which here is designed differently in structure and puncture. The wall elements 10 and 11 ″ have a multilayer structure and are insulated against the passage of sound by special measures. In the broadest sense, the invention is concerned with measures for improving or increasing the sound insulation.

The wall elements according to the invention are individually movably mounted, namely in particular with two roller (j carriages 12 and 13 (see Pig. 2-4) suspended on a support rail 14 so as to be movable. The latter is, for example, in a Building ceiling 17 let in .. The wall elements 10 and 11 can be individually one after the other from the Pig. 1 closed position shown, in which the wall elements 10 and 11 are aligned in one plane, moved into an opening © or stowed position are, in which the wall elements 10 and 11 are preferably transverse

are stacked next to each other at the level of the mounted wall. When closing the wall, the procedure is reversed.

i. '

Jodes wall element 10 is provided with extendable and retractable sealing strips 15 and 16 on the upper and lower edge. The top Sealing strips 15 are against the building ceiling 17 or against the rack rail 14 embedded in this is driven, while the lower sealing strips 16 are against the floor 18 or the like to be printed.

Primarily the same purpose, namely sound insulation, serves the detachable connection of the adjacent wall elements 10 and 11 in the closed position. The wall elements 10 are pulled together on the lateral end faces by locking hooks 19 and 20 and counter hooks 21 and 22 in a sealing position.

The actuation of the sealing strips 15 and 16 and the locking hooks 19 and 20 is coordinated in the invention so that that when the wall is closed, each of the wall elements 10 which have already been closed are newly approached and to be connected Wall element 10a (Pig. 2-4) initially through the locking hooks 19 and 20 in connection with. the counter hook 21 ' and 22 drawn close to the adjacent wall element 10 and only then the sealing strips 15 and 16 are extended Wall elements 10, 10a as well as the sealing strips 15 and 16 are exercised.

The latter comes with a suitable one Tool, e.g. B. operated an attachable crank. A spindle sleeve 25 is seated on the spindle 24 and has a push rod 26 is connected. This in turn engages with the free end approximately in the middle of a main tab 27, the ■ » is freely movable. At the ends of the main tab 27 are on the one hand to the sealing strips 15 and 16 leading Push rods 28 and 29 and on the other hand (at one end) one for actuating the. Locking hooks 19 and 20 serving Transmission rod 50 articulated. The longitudinal movements of the " Transmission rod 250 are transmitted to a rotatably mounted triangular bracket 31, to which in turn push struts 32 and 33 are hinged. The triangular bracket 31 is mounted and the transmission rod 30 and the thrust struts 32 and 33 are hinged so that all attack points one Have a distance from each other so that torques can be transmitted and passed on in each case.

Two-armed levers, specifically angle levers, are used for the direct actuation of the locking hooks 19 and 20. which are also formed by triangular tabs 34 and 35 will. At the corners of these tabs 34 and 35 each grip ^ the Schubötreben 32 »33 or the ends of the Locking hooks 19 and 20 or are the tabs 34 and 35 pivotally mounted at one of the corners.

IIeranfahren a wall element it 10 to an already fixed wall element 10a by turning the spindle 24, the push rod 26 is retracted, so that the Hauptlasehe 2? is moved in the direction of the spindle 24. This has the consequence that - by acting on the push rods 28 and 29 springs 36 and 37 - initially without movement of the push rods 28 and only via the transmission rod 30, the triangular bracket is pivoted from the position shown in FIG. 2 to that shown in FIG. This, in turn, has the consequence that the locking hooks 19 and 20 are moved out of the open position according to FIG. ^{In the closed position} according to FIG. 3, the wall element 10 is moved against the wall element 10a at the same time. A further rotation of the spindle 24 has the effect that, by continuing the movement of the push rod 26, the main plate 27 now inevitably carries out a spreading movement in relation to the hinged ends of the push rods 28 and 29, since the transmission rod 30 no longer carries out another movement, but that on the transmission rod 30 holds the end of the main bracket 27 connected to it. As a result, the upper and lower die strips 15 and 16 are inevitably extended as a result of the rotation of the main link, against the pressure of the springs 36 and 37.

When opening the Y / and the spindle 24 becomes individual with springs Wall element 10, 10a actuated in the opposite direction, the sequences of movements also occurring in the reverse order play. The springs 36 and <£ 37 support this Pulling in the push rods 28 and 29-

During the opening and closing movement, these edges 33 and 39 slide along the lower delimitation 40 and 41, respectively, of passage openings 61 and 62 for the locking hooks 19 and 20 arranged in the wall elements, namely in their profile frames 48. At the inner end, the locking hooks 19 "and 20 are pivotably linked to the brackets 34 and 35, which act like a toggle lever. This results in a sequence of movements (see Pig. 2 and 3)> in which the locking hooks perform a pivoting movement in the initial phase, such that the rigid counter-hook can be detected 21 and 22nd Ia further movement results in a longitudinal \ movement of the locking hooks 19 and 20 in the interior of the wall element is 10 or 10a, such that an attractive force on the counter-hook 21 and applied 22 The forced guidance of the locking hooks 19 and 20 is supported by pins 63, 64 arranged on the profile frame 48, on which the locking hooks 19, 20 are in the starting position with a bevel 59, 60.

According to the invention, a special closing element 11 is provided for the wall (Pig. 5 and 6). In this during the closing of V / and last driven up circuit element 11 the sealing engagement is relational to the adjacent hand element 10, etc., on the building wall not achieved by closing hook, but by an extendable at the lateral face pressure pad 42. This pressure pad 42, which is preferably at the building wall system receives, can be extended and retracted by, for example, two struts 43 and 44. These, in turn, are connected to one another via a traverse 45, a transmission rod 46 being articulated to the traverse 45, which is connected to the actuating device for the wall elements 10 or

The operation of the lockers! 24 takes place ^ ccloch nods from the end face of the end tolerance 11, but from a visible side, but also with the help of a crank or the like to be inserted into an opening 47, which via a suitable intermediate gear 49 (e.g. with worm and worm shaft) acts on the spindle 24. ~

The mode of operation of this actuating device is also such that first of all the sealing pressure is exerted on the building wall W and on the adjacent wall element 10 or 10a and then the sealing solder 15 and 16 are extended.

The invention also has special consideration Structure of the wall elements 10 or 10a and 11 found myself. The V / and elements provided with a load-bearing profile frame 48 running all around are fitted with suitable inside Schalldämmschiehten 52 provided. The contiguous End faces of the wall elements are through in cross section V-shaped edge profiles 50 and 51 can be pushed into one another in a form-fitting manner, with each forming a sealing groove 56 ^ Sand profile 51 with lip seals protruding into this recess 53 and 54 is provided when assembling of neighboring wall elements and thereby a Ensure increased sound insulation (Fig. 7). In addition, there are sealing groove 56 in the G-round as well as on the outermost area. of the edge profile 50 abutting elastic sealing strips 57 and 53 arranged. These measures result in a
