Description

The invention relates to a window, a door or the like. according to the preamble of claims 1 and 2.

A window or a door is at least for casement frames Metal or plastic profiles already from the DE 38 35 835 A1, which the features of the preamble of the claims 1 and 2 discloses known. So for the actuating gear assigned to the window or door

A sufficient installation space is available for the espagnolette fitting is the open guide channel with a breakthrough provided, in which the actuating gear is inserted can be. The actuating gear therefore only partially protrudes in the guide channel and is there - via one with one Drive device, e.g. a pinion, in constant mesh standing clutch slider - coupled to the drive rod.

In order to fix the position of the actuating gear, is on the portion of the actuator that is in the Guide channel protrudes, a rotary toggle attached, which itself can be rotated by 45 ° from its rest position, whereby on Knobs or tongues arranged in a rotary knob Undercut area of the guide channel and so fix the position.

The result of this is that the rotational position fixation by the described device the one hand There are undercut areas of the guide channel must, on the other hand, but also additional components in the form of the rotary knob on the actuating gear are to be provided. For different profiles are therefore different Actuator gearbox or rotary knob required.

From DE 23 01 390 A1 a gear for Espagnolette fittings become known, which - starting from a foot section mounted below the faceplate three housing areas protruding from the rear at a distance or Has housing approaches, which when assembled in chambers plunge. The chambers are formed by blind holes, which are carried out transversely to the fold plane, all three Holes on a common, parallel to the bottom of the groove running plane so at a distance from the groove base are arranged so that each of the holes with its surface line penetrates the bottom of the groove and thus openings to the chambers creates.

The rear housing lugs of the Actuators immerse in these chambers, two Housing approaches thorn-like or cutting-like extensions have, which penetrate into the walls of the chambers and anchoring. The thorny or knife-like Extensions are on those pointing away from the faceplate Ends of the housing lugs arranged.

The actuating gear according to DE 23 01 390 A1 has no possibilities for temporary fixation. The spike or blade-like extensions mentioned effect only anchoring in the longitudinal direction of the Face plate, can lift the actuating gear do not prevent from the chambers. Beyond that in the case of hollow profiles, the cutting-like extensions have no effect, because they come to rest in a cavity of the profile.

Neither DE 23 01 390 nor DE 38 35 835 A1 see means to achieve a certain, temporary positionally fixed attachment of the actuating gear, the without tools and only by inserting the gearbox and a variety of profiles and materials from Wing spars taken into account. It is an object of the invention to remedy this situation.

The object is achieved by the features of characterizing part of claim 1 or 2 solved.

The embodiment according to claim 1 provides that the Means axially to the drive member from the housing area protruding ridges, which are behind the inner edge lock the hole.

With this configuration, the means can be simplified Way with the from the room-side face of the Hole of the polygonal mandrel to be sashed interact.

Through the simple measures, namely the specifically in Installation area of the actuating gear to be carried out anyway To use holes and / or breakthroughs to fix the position and for this purpose positive on the outer contour of the housing and / or to provide frictional means becomes easy and therefore easy to handle position fixation created. At the same time, it is advantageous that this is so created gearboxes for a large number of Profile types can be used. The holes to be drilled and / or breakthroughs depend on the type of profile used almost independent, so that a variety of different Shapes and designs of the groove caused by this different profiles with one Actuators of the same type can be equipped can. The hole or breakthrough thus form a kind Fixed point, because the dimensionally accurate, only on the Actuator gearbox, coordinated drilling or the breakthrough with the shape or Friction means of the gear interacting components creates. The remaining different ones Actuator types differ mainly in the distance of the center of the pinion from the Folded surface, which is commonly referred to as backset. As a result, they are unnecessary due to the diverse design such profiles arise execution problems because according to the invention on the uniform in all profile systems equally used, basically necessary Circumstances can be used.

Alternatively or as a supplement to this, according to claim 2 be provided that the means of cutting edges or Similar exist, which are perpendicular to the faceplate and in Assembly direction are aligned, and that the cutting edges are arranged at the longitudinal ends of the transmission. This is before especially advantageous when using hollow profiles made of metal or Plastic the hole is made in a web which is not directly connected to the housing area of the Actuating gear adjoins. In the manufacture of Windows and doors made of metal or plastic hollow profiles is used to create the installation space or to open the Hollow profile a longitudinal breakthrough, for example generated by a milling cutter. The longitudinal ends of this Breakthrough can interact with the cutting edges and fix the position.

A particularly advantageous embodiment is that the beads arranged in pairs in one to the faceplate parallel plane and each bead a distance from the Has axis of rotation of the drive member, the radius of the Hole corresponds.

This arrangement on the one hand ensures that the Can hold beads in the hole, with two beads cause a stronger fixation against a bead, and that on the other hand the actuating gear in the longitudinal direction optimal fixation and additional centering regarding the hole.

It is also appropriate that several pairs of beads be arranged at a parallel distance from each other. Consequently can different installation situations with regard to the above webs are taken into account.

An embodiment in which the parallel distance of the beads is such that at least a pair of the beads are arranged in an area which outside the guide channel but inside the chamber comes to lie. This configuration has the effect that at least one pair below the webs of the guide groove is arranged.

a rear view of an actuating gear in an opening.

The actuating gear shown in FIG. 1 for a Espagnolette fitting is, for example, on a faceplate 1 attached. It has a housing 2, in which on the one hand a Drive member 3, for example in the form of a pinion and on the other hand a thrust member in the form of a drive rod 4 is led. In holes 5 of this drive rod 4 that engages Drive member 3 with its teeth in a form-fitting manner.

The housing 2 consists, for example, of two identical ones Housing halves 6, which on a with the longitudinal central axis of the Face plate 1 coinciding, parallel to the plane of rotation of the drive member 3 abutting plane. she have approximately Ω-shaped floor plan and have at their foot part 7 two spaced apart from each other Face plate 1 as seen from upper and lower transverse walls 8 and 9 (Fig. 4), with their end edges in the already abut the longitudinal plane mentioned.

The of the axis of rotation 10 (Fig. 3) of the drive member 3 on more distant lower transverse wall 9 (Fig. 4) of the housing halves 6 has two rivet bars or the like, which e.g. reach through the corresponding slots in the faceplate 1 or grasp the faceplate through side recesses and are compressed or riveted in or behind it. Leads between the transverse walls 8 and 9 of the housing halves 6 the pusher 4, which when turning the Drive member 3 on the thrust member 4 coming into effect Radial forces are absorbed.

On the upper wall forming the rear wall of the foot part 7 Cross walls 8 of each housing half 6 are behind rearward facing lugs 14, each one lateral distance to the one the drive member 3rd containing, partially cylindrical housing region 15 to have.

The housing lugs 14 are preferably rectangular Cross section and are each parallel to the axis of rotation 10 of the drive member 3 provided bore 16 which is preferably designed as a threaded bore (Fig. 3). The axes of the two bores 16 lie parallel to one another the axis of rotation 10 of the drive member 3 on a common, to the longitudinal direction of the drive rod 4 level.

The free end faces of the housing lugs 14 are concentric around the axes of the bores 16 as partial cylindrical surfaces 17 educated.

From Fig. 1 it can still be seen that the housing 2 of the transmission in all its areas, i.e. also on the housing approaches 14 has an approximately constant thickness; this corresponds approximately to the width of one in the fold area Wing spar 19 providing a guide channel Hardware groove 20.

The fitting groove 20 forms a guide channel for the Espagnolette.

For the installation of the actuating gear in a wooden profile, which can form, for example, the wing spar 19 of a window or a door, the fitting groove 20 is milled into the folded surface of the wing spar 19, which in addition to the drive rod forming the pushing element 4 and the faceplate 1 also the foot part 7 of the housing 2 with its straight surfaces and edges. With its rear transverse walls 8, the foot part 7 is supported on the groove base and its side walls bear against the side walls of the fitting groove 20, as shown in FIG. 4 with the aid of the guide channel or fitting groove indicated. The remaining part of the housing 2, consisting of the housing portion 15 containing the drive member 3 and the two housing approaches 14 is received by a gearbox recess in the wing spar 19, which consists of three spaced apart chambers 21, 22 ¹ and 22 ² , which according to the Hardware groove 20 have openings 23 and 24 ¹ and 24 ² (see FIG. 2).

These three chambers, 21, 22 ¹ and 22 ² are formed by bores 34, 35 ¹ , 35 ² , which are made from the end face oriented transversely to the folding plane of the wing spar 19 as blind bores and extend over the entire width of the in the folding surface of the wing spar 19 arranged fitting groove 20 extend. All three bores 34, 35 ¹ , 35 ² lie on a common plane parallel to the bottom of the fitting groove 20 but at a distance behind this plane, the distance from the bottom of the groove being such that each of the bores 34, 35 ¹ , 35 ² penetrates the bottom of the groove with its generatrix and thus, according to FIG. 2, the openings 23 and 24 ¹ and 24 ^{2 of} the chambers 21 and 21 ¹ and 22 ² can be created.

The diameter of the bores 34, 35 ¹ , 35 ² and their center distance from the groove base is provided such that the chambers 21, 22 ¹ , 22 ² formed by them and adjoining the bottom of the fitting groove 20 through their openings 23, 24 ¹ and 24 ² can easily accommodate both the housing region 15 containing the drive member 3 and the housing projections 14, as can be seen from FIG. 3.

It should also be noted that after inserting the actuating gear into the fitting groove 20 and the adjoining chambers 21, 22 ¹ and 22 ^{2 of} the wing spar 19 forming the gear box recess, each between the longitudinal side surfaces of the housing lugs 14 and the adjacent walls of the chambers 22 ¹ and 22 ² circular-section-shaped cavities 30 arise, as can be seen from FIG. 3.

As can be seen from Figures 1, 3 and 4, are on the Housing 2 of the actuating gear in the axial direction of the axis of rotation 10 extending beads 31 attached. These are slightly above the otherwise almost constant thickness of the Actuator before, but are dimensioned so that the total thickness of the actuating gear in the area of the beads 31 is only slightly larger than the width of the Hardware groove 20.

As can further be seen from FIGS. 3 and 4, the Beaded 31 in pairs and symmetrically to one the fulcrum 10 level on both housing halves 6 arranged. The beads 31 are in one Face plate 1 parallel plane together with the axis of rotation 10 of the drive member 3 and the bores 16 of the Housing lugs 14 ..

On a second one, again parallel, but closer to Face plate 1 level are also in pairs Beads 32 provided. These are at a distance from the Axis of rotation 10 also symmetrical to a perpendicular the axis of rotation 10 extending plane, the slightly is dimensioned smaller than the radius 33 of the bore 34.

When the actuating gear is inserted into the chambers 23, 24 ¹ , 24 ² formed by the bores 34, 35 ¹ , 35 ² from the open side of the guide channel or the fitting groove 20 in the mounting direction denoted by R in FIG. 2, the beads lock 32 behind the lateral surfaces of the bore 34 and bring about the desired position fixing of the actuating gear.

As is particularly clear from FIG. 4, this is due to the bore 34 created chamber 21 dimensioned so that it or the guide channel indicated by dash-dotted lines in FIG. 4 or fitting groove 20 - seen in the longitudinal direction of the bore 34 and thus across the hardware groove 20 - opens. It will possible that the arranged on both housing parts 6 Beaded 32 one created through the bore 34 Can undercut undercut, even towards the in Fig. 4 right longitudinal wall of the fitting groove 20, the slightly is drilled. Therefore, the actuating gear is in this Position both in the longitudinal direction and against the Mounting direction fixed in position.

Among other things, the actuating gear in Longitudinal direction additionally aligned, for example would not be possible by arranging a single bead. There the beads 32 are almost on the radius 33 of the bore 34 it is ensured that the housing halves 6 projecting Beaded 32 on the one hand in sections over this edge of the Protruding lateral surface, while on the other hand with her remaining section in the indicated guide channel or Hardware groove 20 lie. Thus, a frictional engagement of the bead sections lying outside the bore 34 and at the same time a positive connection of the projecting into the bore Reach bead sections.

As can be seen from FIG. 3 in connection with FIG. 4, the first pair of beads 31 leading in the assembly direction is only effective when the wing spar is profiled from wood when it is inserted. If the actuating gear is fixed by the beads 32, the beads 31 no longer come into engagement with the bore 34. However, this is not the case with a configuration of the wing spar as a hollow profile made of plastic or metal according to FIGS. 5 and 6. In such a hollow profile made of plastic or metal, the groove base 40 is opened by an opening 41. This is done, for example, by means of a milling cutter which is inserted into the guide channel or the fitting groove 20 and which produces an elongated hole recess in the groove base 40. Nevertheless, 19 holes are made from the end face of the wing spar - similar to the holes already described for chamber formation - as a blind hole, so that the attachment of an operating handle to be arranged on the end face and the engagement of the polygonal pin in the drive element - not shown here 3 can be done. 5, the beads 31, 32 are spaced from one another such that the beads 31 lie below the web 43 forming the groove base 40, while the beads 32 in the final assembly state shown in FIG. 5 within the guide channel or Hardware groove 20 lie. The parallel spacing of the beads 31, 32 is chosen so that the arrangement described a variety of thicknesses of the web 43 can be used. In a configuration of the wing spar made of plastic or metal, the bore 34 is usually not made with the radius 33 which corresponds to the distance between the pairs of beads, but rather the bores 34, 35 ¹ , 35 ² are each produced with the same diameter. This is indicated by dash-dotted lines in FIG. 6. It can also be seen from FIG. 6 that the longitudinal extension 44 of the opening 41 is chosen to be larger than the longitudinal extension of the actuating gear including the housing lugs 14.

The beads 31 therefore snap behind the webs 43, which at a design of the spar and the associated Bores 34 made of a wood material is not possible because would be removed with the bore 34 of the web 43.

Due to the paired arrangement of the beads 31, 32 on each a plane parallel to the faceplate 1, several Pairs of beads each at a parallel distance are arranged to each other, therefore a use and the same actuating gear both with wing spars 19th made of wood, as well as for wings made of hollow profiles, e.g. B. Plastic or metal can be formed.

Because the hollow profiles are usually made similarly be, e.g. B. by extrusion, the webs have a Relation to the other dimensions of the hollow profiles only small range of dimensions, what the arrangement or the Interpretation of the distance between the beads 31, 32 simplified.

The thickness of a web is usually, for example for plastic profiles between 1.5 mm and 5 mm, so that the The spacing of the beads 31, 32 should be approximately the largest dimension would.

As shown in FIG. 7 in connection with FIG. 3, this is Actuating gear additionally provided with cutting edges 50. Only one of the housing halves 6 is on the housing lugs 14 with those pointing in the longitudinal direction of the actuating gear Provide cutting edges 50. These are, like FIG. 3 can be taken in the longitudinal direction of the housing approaches 14, ie perpendicular to the faceplate 1, aligned and align with that indicated in FIGS. 2 and 4 Assembly direction R. The opening 41 indicated in FIG. 7 is designed as an elongated hole and in its longitudinal extension, 6, dimensioned somewhat larger than the housing 2 of the actuating gear. From a flat surface of the gear attachments 14, the cutting edges 50 - without to project laterally over the housing 2 - in the Breakthrough 41 delimiting radius of the elongated hole. The Cutting edges penetrate the material of the Part of the wing material and cause the Housing 2.

The cutting edges 50 are tapered Triangular projections of the housing half 6 formed, the first leg with the flat surface of the housing half 6 aligns and the second leg at an acute angle runs to it.

Since the cutting edges 50 are attached to both longitudinal ends of the actuating gear, the housing ^{2 is} necessarily centered with respect to the opening 41 or the bore 35 ¹ , 35 ² .

In the configuration of the wing spar 19 according to FIG. 3, the cutting edges 50 protrude into the material projection of the opening 21 ¹ , 21 ² , as is clear in connection with FIG. 2. When the actuating gear reaches its final assembly position shown in FIG. 3, in which it may be additionally fastened by further fastening elements, the cutting edges at least partially protrude into the chambers 22 ¹ , 22 ² and largely pass into the circular cavity 30.

In the manufacture of the actuating gear as a molded part, e.g. die-cast, the cutting edge 50 can be molded directly become. In practice, the housing halves 6 are made different materials and according to different Manufacturing process produced or produced what the Assembly considerably simplified. The cutting edges 50 are then expedient to provide in the housing half 6, which as Molding was formed. The production of the beads 31, 32 provides for both manufacturing methods of the housing halves no problem.

As can be seen from FIGS. 4 and 5, the beads 31, 32 attached to both housing halves 6. This strengthens the fixation that can be achieved via the beads 31, 32 can, especially if the beads 31, 32 mirror image to be ordered.

However, it can be provided that the beads 31, 32 on the respective housing halves a different distance exhibit. This can e.g. to facilitate the introduction of the Actuating gear make sense because the simultaneous Intervention of two pairs of beads is avoided.

For the sake of completeness, it is pointed out that the cutting edges also on the longitudinal walls of the housing area 15 can be attached if the housing approaches 14th is waived. This can be the case, for example, if the attachment of the operating handle does not have a additional rosette (of the operating handle) on the housing 2 should be done.
