Description

Sliding door system

The invention relates to a sliding door system with at least one motor-driven sliding door leaf, preferably automatic sliding door, with a drive, as well as drive and control devices, namely drive motor, control and preferably also a rotating drive belt guided over deflection pulleys, drivers for connecting drive belts and wings, locking and Motion detector.

Known door drives, such as. B. an automatic sliding door drive described in DE-OS 36 02 567, are composed of several components, such as an electric motor, electronic control unit, carrier with drive, locking device, etc. The individual components are arranged side by side on a stationary horizontal support. The arrangement is essentially in a common vertical plane in the area of the carrier. This results in a relatively large overall height. Furthermore, the assembly effort is usually relatively high, since the individual components are each individually arranged on the carrier. They are usually attached to the carrier separately via their own fastening devices. DE-OS 38 23 188 describes a sliding door system with an electric drive motor which is attached to the housing of the running rail. For this purpose, a dovetail profile is formed on the upper side of the running rail housing, into which the drive and control devices can be inserted and fixed by means of a clamp fastening. In this known embodiment, the drive motor is arranged vertically above the running rail, which only offers limited installation options in practice.

In DE GM 93 02 490, the drive motor is mounted in a similar manner via an adapter profile for optional attachment vertically above the running rail or horizontally to the side thereof. The adapter profile can be fixed in the dovetail arranged on the top of the running rail housing with clamping screws.

The object of the invention is to develop a sliding door system with a lower overall height.

This object is achieved with the subject matter of claim 1.

The use of the profile housing, which can be formed in one piece or in several parts from profile parts, makes it possible to build the drive stably and at the same time compactly with a low overall height. The profile housing can be L-shaped in cross section. The track of the sliding mechanism can be arranged on the vertical profile leg, preferably on the inside of the profile leg. The drive units, such as the drive motor, electronic control, etc., can be mounted on the horizontal profile leg, preferably on the inside thereof. A receiving groove can be provided on the profile leg for fastening. On the projecting free end of the horizontal profile leg, a cover hood with an L-shaped cross section can be hung, which covers the drive. The carriages can carry rollers on one side, which are guided in the track, and on the other side a suspension and / or adjustment device on which the sliding sash is suspended. Due to the laterally offset arrangement of the flight ice next to the carriage, the upper edge of the Flying ice can be arranged above the lower edge of the carriage or at a height or above the track if the suspension and / or adjustment device is set accordingly, so that a particularly low construction can be realized. To prevent the carriage from tipping over, supporting rollers, e.g. with a vertical axis of rotation, can be used , provided to be supported on vertical profile legs or profile strips of the profile housing. The carriage can have a base body which is L-shaped in cross section, wherein the rollers can be arranged on the vertical leg and the support rollers can be arranged on the horizontal leg of the base body. The suspension and / or adjusting device can between be arranged the legs of the base body

Further features and advantages of the invention result from the configurations according to

The following applies both to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1 and to the modified embodiment shown in FIG. 2:

The sliding sash 10 is slidably mounted on a drive 1. The drive 1 is designed as a drive module. The drive motor and the control device is arranged in a motor and control module 2. A carrier module 3 and a display and / or communication module 4 are also provided. In the exemplary embodiment shown, all modules each have a profile housing. The modules extend in the longitudinal direction of the slide mechanism, preferably over the entire door width. They are arranged one behind the other in a common horizontal plane in the direction of view perpendicular to the door plane. They lie against each other with their front sides facing each other. They each have the same height H, z. B. 60 mm or 70 mm. They are each arranged with the top and bottom sides aligned so that they form a composite cuboid body Form height H. In an embodiment shown at the following point, however, the drive module 1 can also be assembled from two parts in its axial extent.

As for the fastening of the modules in the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 1, the following applies: the fastening of the modules 1, 2, 3, 4 to one another is carried out by hanging. For this purpose, undercut longitudinal grooves 61 and complementary, z. B. provided in cross section hook-shaped projecting longitudinal edges 62 which interlock. Additionally or alternatively, screw connections can be provided in the mutually facing front sides.

The same applies to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 2 as for the embodiments and FIGS. 13 and 14: To attach the drive module 1, an L-shaped carrier module 3 is fastened to the post or the transom 81 of an on-site post and transom construction 8 ( see also Fig. 8). The carrier module 3 extends over the entire height of the bolt 81 and lies with the short leg 3a on the horizontal upper edge of the bolt 81. The lower edge of the latch 81 and the carrier module 3 are at the same height. The mounting module 3 is screwed to the bolt 81 and a reinforcement profile 81 b received in the interior of the bolt 81 by fastening screws 1 e. In order to adapt the carrier module 3 to posts 82 (FIG. 8) lying above the transom 81, the short leg 3a has a predetermined breaking point 32 at its base. The corresponding leg area can be released by simple sawing. To accommodate the drive module 1, the carrier module 3 has a suspension device 33 and a clamping device 34. The new fastening technology makes it possible to mount the drive module 1 and all other modules by simply hanging and tensioning them on the facing front sides. Instead of the posts 82 attached, the posts 86 can also be designed continuously as load-bearing posts.

The suspension device 33, which connects the carrier module 3 to the drive module 1, consists of a near the upper edge of the vertical leg 3b horizontally running first dovetail half-profile 33a. This engages in a dovetail counter profile 13 which is formed in the profile rail 63 of the drive module 1 at the same height. After hanging, the upper and lower edges of the carrier module 3 and the drive module 1 are each at the same height.

The clamping device 34 is used for the mutual fixing of the modules 1 and 3 hooked on the hanging device 33. It consists of several profile pieces 35 which are arranged in a horizontally running recess 34a open towards the carriage 1 near the lower edge of the vertical leg 3b . Each clamping piece 35 lies with a flat base surface 35a in the recess, with a freedom of movement remaining in the vertical direction. The front of the clamping piece 35 is formed by a second dovetail half profile 35b, the profile of which is complementary to the first dovetail half profile 33a. The opposite side of the clamping piece 35 ends with a wedge surface 35c. The second dovetail half-profile 35b engages in a second dovetail counter-profile 14, which is formed in the profile rail 63 of the drive module 1 at the same height. In order to enable the engagement, the clamping piece 35 is raised in the recess in the vertical direction and then lowered again. For this purpose, recesses 3c are provided on the undersides of the vertical leg 3b. After the engagement, the clamping piece 35 is fixed by a clamping screw 35d which, with its free end, is attached to a counter surface, e.g. supports a horizontal bar 35e of the carrier module 3 and thus prevents the dovetail connection from being released.

A modified exemplary embodiment of the carrier module 3 is shown in FIG. 22a. In this case, the support module 3 has a horizontally running dovetail groove 301 near its upper end, into which a plurality of short angle pieces 300 with a dovetail profile 302 matching the groove 301 are inserted. Each elbow 300 carries a horizontal leg 303, which rests on the latch 81 in a manner analogous to the horizontal leg 3a in FIG. 2 and enables the carrier module 3 to be easily installed. Because the horizontal Leg 303 is not arranged centrally on the angle piece 300, the construction allows simple adaptation to different bar heights by inserting the angle piece 300 into the dovetail groove 301 rotated by 180 degrees. The horizontal leg 303 is then in the position shown in dashed lines. Further adaptation options to different bolt constructions are possible through the use of differently shaped angle pieces 300, whereby the same carrier module 3 can nevertheless be used. Alternatively, a carrier module 3 with several dovetail profiles in different vertical positions is also possible, the angle piece 300 being used at the appropriate height.

On the upper side of the vertical leg 3b there is a longitudinal groove 310 with a semicircular cross section. If necessary, this serves as a cable guide, especially when laying cables from one side of the door to the other.

In order to simplify the fastening to the post 84, 86 or the latch 81, the carrier module 3 shown in FIG. 22a has a horizontally extending, continuous V-groove 320 on the side of the vertical leg 3b facing the drive module 1. This prevents the drill from running when drilling fastening holes. As an alternative or in addition to the V-groove 320, fastening holes in the form of elongated holes in vertical and / or horizontal alignment in a grid arrangement for the fastening screws 1 e, not shown, may already be present. These allow height and transverse adjustment of the carrier module 3 on the latch 81.

When mounting on an uneven surface, the support or the support module 3 must be underlaid at appropriate locations. Otherwise, the carrier or the carrier module 3 could warp during assembly, which would unnecessarily complicate the subsequent mounting of the drive module 1. A corresponding assembly set with washers of different thicknesses can advantageously be added to the door drive. To facilitate assembly, a spirit level can be incorporated into the carrier or the carrier module 3 analogously to a spirit level. This makes it possible to precisely align the carrier or the carrier module 3 for assembly without using any additional aids.

An L-shaped diaphragm 360 is clipped onto the underside of the vertical leg 3a, the horizontal leg 361 of which covers the entire underside of the carrier module 3 and the vertical leg 362 of which engages around the left-hand vertical leg 63a of the drive module 1. The two lugs 363, which are used for clipping into the recess 3c, can be seen in FIG. 22b. In order to adapt to different door widths, the panel 360 has several predetermined breaking points. In addition, the cover 360 has on its underside a receiving groove 65 for a sealing brush 66, which seals the carrier module 3 to the wing 10, not shown.

Figure 22b shows the detail XXII in Figure 22a in an enlarged view. In contrast to the description in FIG. 2, not only the drive module side but also the carrier module side has a dovetail groove 330 in the clamping device 34, in which the clamping piece 35 engages with a dovetail profile 35b. This has the advantage that the clamping pieces 35 can be arranged in a corresponding position in the carrier module 3 even before assembly without the risk of falling out. This has no influence on the functioning of the fastening technology already described.

A further detailed solution is provided by the dirt trailing grooves 340 running in the deepest position in the right-hand dovetail profile 330. Any contamination can accumulate there without the fitting accuracy of the counterpart 35b in the dovetail profile 330 suffering as a result. Instead of attaching a dirt trap groove 340 in the dovetail profile 330, the outer tip of the counterpart 35b can also be shortened in order to create a dirt trap area 341, as is exemplarily shown on the left side. Such dirt traps 340, 341 - -

can also be found on the upper suspension and clamping device 33 with dovetail profile 33a.

The motor and control module 2 in FIG. 1 is also attached to the drive module 1 by simply hooking it in and bracing it on the mutually facing front sides. For mounting, the drive module 1 has an undercut longitudinal groove 61 on its upper horizontal edges, into which the motor and control module 2 is suspended with a complementary longitudinal edge 62 projecting in a hook-shaped cross section. The clamping takes place via a clamping device 34, which is identical to the device present in the carrier module 3, but is arranged inclined at approximately 30 ° to the horizontal. A horizontally running groove 15 in the middle of the vertical leg 63b serves to receive the wedge surface 35c present on the clamping piece 34. The clamping piece 35 with the dovetail half-profile 35b engages in a dovetail counter-profile 27c, which is also inclined to the horizontal, on the vertical leg 27a of the motor and control module 2. The clamping device 34 is clamped in this position by a clamping screw 35d and the two modules 1, 2 fixed to each other.

The drive can be attached to the vertical wall of the housing, e.g. B. by screw connection as shown in Figure 1 in the region of the vertical housing leg of the drive module 1. Alternatively, the carrier module 3 can be connected upstream of the drive module 1 and attached to the vertical housing leg of the carrier module 3. Instead of being fastened to a vertical wall, however, it can also be fastened to the upper horizontal ceiling or to the lintel, preferably by means of a screw connection in the region of the horizontal top wall of the running rail module 1 or the support module 3.

For attachment to the wall or ceiling or lintel, separate mounting brackets can also be provided, which are attached to module 1 or 3 on the one hand and to the wall or ceiling on the other. Such fasteners can also be inserted into the housing of the modules 1 or 3 or with which in the Module housing recorded reinforcement profile or flat material can be connected.

To illustrate the fastening options, FIG. 8 shows a mullion-transom construction 8. The vertical mullions 84 are connected to the ceiling and connected to one another via a horizontal transom 81. The carrier module 3 and / or the drive module 1 are fastened to this latch 81. The two door leaves 10 are shown in the closed position. For this version, four variants for supporting the latch 81 or the carrier module 3 are provided, which are described in the following:

In the first variant, limitations of the fixed field wing 12, z. B. vertical profiles, designed as load-bearing limiting posts 86, which support the latch 81 in the interior in addition to the side posts 84. Variant 2 provides for the bolt 81 to be attached to the floor ceiling 83 by means of posts 82. In variant 3, the bolt 81 is suspended from the floor ceiling 83 with steel cables or rods 85a, 85b. These elements can be cut to length and height-adjustable. The ropes or rods 85a, 85b can both be arranged in a freely visible manner 85b and also run invisibly 85a within the posts 82. The fourth variant provides for the fixed field wing itself to be designed as a supporting element and is described in FIGS. 10 and 11.

FIG. 10 shows a variant in which the fixed field wing 12, which can be designed as an all-glass, insulating glass or also thermal insulation wing, serves to support the carrier module 3 and the latch 81. For this purpose, the fixed field wing 12 has a wedge device 12a on its upper horizontal edge and is initially positioned under the latch 81, a gap initially remaining between the clamping device 12a and the latch 81. For a safe installation, it is necessary that the carrier module 3 and the latch 81 are at the same height with their lower edge, or a device is required which bridges a possible difference in height. The clamping device 12a consists of several, received in an anchor 12g in the upper edge of the wing Hexagon bolts 12b. The hexagon screws 12b each carry a pin 12c, which is used to receive a terminal strip 12d running parallel to the upper edge of the wing. The hexagon screws 12b are then loosened one after the other from their anchoring 12g until the terminal strip 12d resting on the support module 3 or the latch 81 and the fixed field wing 12 is thereby clamped with the latch 81. Finally, cover panels 12e are fastened to the terminal strip 12d by means of latching elements 12f in order to optically cover the gap between the upper edge of the wing and the terminal strip 12d.

FIG. 11 shows a modified exemplary embodiment, in which the fixed field wing 12 is merely braced against the carrier module 3 without resting on the latch 81. A support is also possible, in which the fixed field wing 12 is only braced against the bolt, without resting on the carrier module.

In Figure 9, the attachment options of the drive module 1 or the carrier module 3 on the latch 81 or another horizontal spar are shown again in summary. For this purpose, FIG. 9a shows a direct screw connection 1 e of the drive module 1 to the latch 81, as is also indicated in FIG. 1. To increase the rigidity, a darkened reinforcement profile 81 b is accommodated in the latch 81. In FIG. 9b, a rail 1f is arranged over the entire length of the drive module 1, which lies on the bolt 81 during assembly and is screwed to it. The embodiment in FIG. 9c corresponds to that in FIG. 2, in which an L-shaped carrier profile 3 is screwed to the bolt 81 and the drive module 1 is suspended in the carrier module 3 via the hanging device 33 with dovetail profile 13 and is clamped with the clamping device 34.

In an alternative embodiment shown in FIG. 9d, the drive module 1 takes over a stiffening or support function instead of the support profile 3. For this purpose, the drive module 1 is designed with two hollow chambers for the introduction of flat material 81 c shown in dark in an L shape. It is preferably steel rails, which the rigidity of the drive module 1 in the Increase the number of applications required for self-supporting assembly. The hollow chambers with the flat material 81 c are located in the two vertical legs and the middle part of the U-shaped drive module. In other embodiments, U-shaped reinforcement materials can also be introduced. These can either consist of one part or be composed of two or more parts. The advantage of this embodiment is that no additional profile has to be used to achieve a higher load capacity.

Several embodiments of the drive module 1 are described below. The following applies to the design of the drive shown in FIG. 1: The drive module 1 has a sliding guide which, in the exemplary embodiment shown, contains rollers 1a with a vertical axis of rotation. The rollers 1 a run on stationary treads 1 b, which are opposite to each other in a common horizontal plane. They are formed on the opposite legs of the profile housing 1 c of the drive module. The treads 1 b are convexly curved, but can also be concave or in the form of oblique flat surfaces.

Preferably, several rollers are arranged one behind the other in the direction of travel, which roll on opposite running surfaces, i. that is, one roller rolls on one, the other rollers on the other tread.

The rollers 1 a have a vertical pressure rotary bearing 1 d. The axes accommodated in these bearings carry the sliding sash 10. For this purpose, a suspension device with height adjustment is provided, which can be constructed in a conventional manner with a screw and nut.

Instead of the drive shown in Figure 1 with the rollers with a vertical axis, rollers with a horizontal axis can also be used, for. B. conventionally constructed roller carriage. The construction of such roller carriages is e.g. B. described in DE-OS 36 02 440. Roller carriages can also be used here, which - as shown in FIG. On the sides of the U- Legs 22, 23, the rollers, not shown, are arranged, the bearing axes of the rollers in undercut longitudinal grooves 22a, 23a are received clamped on the outer sides of the U-legs. Cross bolts 24 are provided for suspending the wings 10 and are arranged in opposite bearings in the U-legs. The bearings have an eccentric device so that a height adjustment of the wing 10 suspended on the cross pin can be carried out by rotating the cross pin.

Instead of rollers with vertical or horizontal axes, rollers with axes of rotation arranged at an angle to the horizontal can also be used, preferably with rollers which are offset crosswise to one another and arranged one behind the other in the direction of travel. Due to the different arrangement of the rollers, designs of drive modules 1 with different cross-sectional dimensions are possible.

Alternatively, drives with running balls can also be set up. In the ball drive shown in Figure 4a, the balls 36 run in a groove 37 in the drive housing 1 c and support a bearing plate 38 with corresponding grooves 39. A suspension device for the sliding sash 10 with a U-shaped receiving body 31, which is constructed similarly to the body 21 in FIG. 3, is suspended in the bearing plate 38. The bearing plate 38 can form the body of a carriage which has 3 balls on each of the two running sides. As with the drives described above, the sliding sash engages in the drive housing so that the upper edge of the sliding sash is hidden.

FIG. 4b shows a further exemplary embodiment of a drive 1 with a vertically and horizontally arranged roller 69v or 69h. The drive 1 with its essentially L-shaped housing 63 is fastened to a post 84 via an intermediate support element 3. The housing 63 has a vertical leg 63a abutting the carrier element 3, an elongated horizontal leg 63d lying at the top, and a short leg approximately in the second vertical leg 63b arranged in the middle of the horizontal leg 63d.

On the first vertical leg 63a, a horizontal web 64a with a running surface is attached in the lower third, on which the vertical running roller 69v, i.e. with a horizontal axis of rotation 68. The axis 68 of this roller 69v is mounted in the vertical leg 6v of an L-shaped roller carriage 6. Above the roller carriage 6 and the vertical roller 69v there is a second roller 69h lying horizontally, i.e. with a vertical axis of rotation. The axis 68 of this roller 69h is mounted in the horizontal leg 6h of the roller carriage 6. The roller 69h is guided with play between the two vertical legs 63a and 63b of the profile housing 63 immediately below the overhead leg 63d. For this purpose, each of the two vertical limbs 63a and 63b has a running surface, the running roller 69h being supported only on one of the two running surfaces. This second roller 69h acts as a support roller and prevents the roller carriage 6 with the wing 10 attached to it from tipping over.

The roller carriage 6 in the form of an “L” turned upside down now forms an additional receiving space for the height adjustment of the wing 10 below its vertical leg 6v. The wing is connected to the horizontal leg 6h of the roller carriage via a conventionally designed suspension and adjustment device 7 6. Alternatively, the wing 10 can also be attached to the vertical leg 6v of the roller carriage 6 via a suspension and adjustment device 6. The wing 10 is arranged in alignment under the horizontal leg 6h of the roller carriage 6 and, depending on the setting and design of the suspension, can - And adjusting device 7 engage with its upper edge more or less far between the two L-legs 6h and 6v of the roller carriage 6.

Near the outer end of the horizontal leg 63d of the profile housing 63 there is a receiving groove 350 on the underside thereof for the attachment of drive and control elements. The front of the profile housing 63 is through a L-shaped cover 5 is closed, which is attached to an upper longitudinal edge 62 on the upper horizontal front edge of the profile housing 63. The lower horizontal leg of the cover 5 extends directly to the sliding wing 10 and lies at the same height as the support element 3 and the left vertical leg 63a of the profile housing 63. As with the drives described above, the sliding wing 10 also engages in the drive housing here 63 so that the upper edge of the sliding sash is hidden. Due to the special design of the roller carriage 6 and the arrangement of the rollers 69v, 69h, there is, however, an additional scope for the height adjustment of the wing 10.

Another embodiment of a drive with horizontal axes is shown in FIG. The structure of the drive module 1 corresponds to that in FIG. 2 and consists of a U-profile 63 of almost square cross section. A horizontal central web 64a and 64b is formed on each of the two vertical legs 63a and 63b, which separates the profile into an upper region 6a and a lower region 7a. In the middle there remains an opening for the implementation of the suspension and adjustment device 7 for the sliding leaf 10, not shown. The central webs 64a, 64b are designed as running surfaces 1b, 1b 'for the roller carriage 6, one central web 64b having a running surface 1b' with a curved cross section and the other central web 64a having a running surface 1b with a flattened cross section. The webs 64a, 64b have mutually facing receiving grooves 65 with sealing brushes 66 arranged throughout. The upper area 6a of the profile rail 63 with the roller carriage 6 contained therein is hermetically sealed and the ingress of dirt or foreign bodies is avoided.

The roller carriage 6 shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 consists of an elongated base body 67 in which two continuous horizontal axes 68 arranged one behind the other are mounted. Each of the axes 68 carries two external, differently shaped rollers 69. The roller carriage 6 is with its rollers 69 in the upper region 6a of the profile rail 63 on the central webs 64a, 64b. Corresponding to the configuration of the running surfaces 1b, 1b ^' , the rollers 69a arranged on the left side relative to the running axis have a flattened running surface 1b and the rollers 69b arranged on the right side have a spherical running surface 1b ^' . The tread 1 b is flattened to form a horizontal flat tread. The roller-side tread of the roller 69a is formed on the flattened tread 1b in the axial direction as a floating bearing. The flattening of the tread 1 b in connection with the roll shape thus serves to compensate for tolerances. In order to increase guiding security, a curved support profile 63c, which is complementary to the profile of the roller 69b, is arranged on the upper side of the chamber 6a, opposite the also curved running surface 1b ^'of the central web 64b. The support profile 63c engages in the profile of the roller 69b, but does not touch the roller 69b. The roller carriage base body 67 is also only a short distance from the profile 63, but without touching it. In this way, a "lifting" of the roller carriage 6 or even jumping out of the guide is prevented.

The rollers 69a with flattened tread 1b each have a circumferential recess within the tread 1b. This serves to accommodate a rubber band 2d, which causes the sliding sashes to open in emergency operation. The elastic band 2d is connected at one end to the sliding sash 10 and is supported in a stationary manner at the other end, but can also be moved with the sash biased. It serves as an auxiliary drive for emergency opening of the sliding leaf 10 in the event of the motor 2a failing. In modified versions, the elastic band 2d can also be used for emergency closing.

For fastening the drive module 1 there is a horizontal groove 13 near the upper edge of the leg 63a, with which the drive module 1 is suspended in the carrier module 3 as already described under FIG. A second horizontal groove 14 near the lower edge of the leg 63a is used for bracing by the clamping device 35 arranged in the carrier module 3. A further groove 15 in the middle of the opposite leg 63b serves for this Bracing the motor and control module 2, which is previously hung in a horizontal groove 61 on the upper edge of the leg 63b.

The embodiment of the drive module 1 shown in FIGS. 13 and 14 has two additional receiving grooves 600 on the undersides of the central webs 64a and 64b. These serve to attach buffers 610 to the ends of the module 1, onto which the roller carriages 6 run in their respective end positions. The buffer 610 itself is shown in FIG. 19. As can be seen in FIG. 20, the drive module 1 has a cutout 630 in the central region of the longitudinal extension with shortened central webs 64a, 64b, which allows the roller carriages 6 to be inserted or exchanged in the drive module 1. This recess 630 can either also be secured by buffers 610 or closed with a cover.

As can best be seen in FIG. 7, in this embodiment, a driver 25 connected to the drive, preferably by a drive belt driven by the drive motor 2a, is fastened to the underside of the roller carriage 67. For this purpose, the driver 25 engages with its upward bent end surface 25a in a recess 67a on the underside of the roller carriage 6. In this position, it is fixed with two fastening screws 26, which are passed through from the top of the roller carriage. The bracket end 25 is approximately at the level of the two central webs 64a, 64b.

The suspension and adjustment device 7 shown in the side view in FIG. 7a engages vertically with a hexagon screw 71 in a threaded hole 72 in a cross bolt 72a mounted in the roller carriage base body 67. The intervention takes place from the front seen between the rollers 69 (Fig. 6) and seen from the side between the axes 68 (Fig. 7). On the screw head 71 a, a bracket 74 connected to the sliding sash 10 is mounted and secured with a lock nut 73. The bracket 74 is screwed to a base plate 75 at the two ends bent downward. This base plate 75 is axially displaceably mounted in an undercut recess in the upper edge of the wing and is by the vertical wing edge inserted. The bracket 74 shown again in top view in FIG. 7b has in the middle a receiving slot 74a running perpendicular to the wing plane for hanging the screw head 10, the screw head 71a abutting the underside of the bracket 74 and a lock nut 73 on the upper side of the bracket 74 for fixing of the bracket on the screw head 71 a is tightened. After loosening the lock nut 73, it is possible to remove the bracket 74 together with the sliding sash 10 from the suspension 7 by lateral displacement. This allows the adjustment to be made without hindrance by the wing 10 and simplifies assembly.

To assemble the wing, the base plate 75 is first inserted into the sliding wing 10 and fixed at the desired position with clamping screws, not shown. The bracket 74 is then fixed to the base plate 75 via a screw connection 76. Only after the hexagon screw 71 has been set to the desired height is the wing 10 suspended via the bracket 74 via the slot 74a in the device 7 and secured with the lock nut 73. This allows simple and safe adjustment. Maintenance and repair work is also greatly simplified and accelerated by the ability to unhinge the wing 10.

An alternative suspension and adjustment device 7, which has additional scope for the height adjustment of the wing 10, is shown in FIGS. 7c and 7d. In this case, the bracket 74 has a receiving bore 74b instead of a receiving slot 74a, via which it is suspended on the head 71a of the hexagon screw 71. The bracket 74 can, if it is installed, no longer be suspended from the screw 71. Instead, the bracket 74 can be attached to its ends connected to the wing 10. For this purpose, lateral receiving slots 74c are formed on these two ends of the bracket 74 for introducing the screws 76 which engage in the upper edge of the wing (only the one on the right is shown in FIG. 7d), which are shaped analogously to the original receiving slot 74a. The two receiving slots 74c also allow transverse positioning or unhooking of the wing 10. The height adjustment is carried out analogously to FIGS. 7a and 7b. Because a lock nut 73 for securing the bracket 74 on the hexagon screw 71 can be dispensed with, however, there is advantageously an additional latitude.

The following applies to the motor and control module 2 shown in FIG. 1: The motor and control module 2 has a motor 2a and a control unit (not shown). The motor 2a is designed as a relatively narrow, essentially rod-shaped motor. The output pinion 2c is coupled in motion to the wing 10. For this purpose, a transmission device, not shown, is provided between the output pinion 2c and the wing 10. For example, a conventionally constructed drive belt device can be provided with rotating drive belts guided over deflection rollers 2b, one deflection roller 2b being driven by the motor 2a and one strand of the drive belt being connected to the wing 10 via a driver.

In a departure from the exemplary embodiment shown in the figure, the motor output shaft of the motor can also reach through the profile housing walls which separate the motor and control module from the drive module 1. The transmission device, e.g. B. the drive belt device can be arranged in the drive module 1. It itself can in turn be designed as a module which can be plugged into the drive module 1.

In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, a rubber cord 2d is also accommodated in the motor and control module, which is attached at one end to the wing 10 and at the other end to the profile housing of the module 2. The elastic is stretched when the wing closes. In the event of a power failure, the elastic band automatically opens the door. In a departure from the exemplary embodiment shown, the elastic band 2d can also be arranged in the drive module 1, preferably supported in a corresponding manner. For this purpose, FIGS. 2 and 6 ^" provide that the elastic band 2d is guided in a space-saving manner in a recess within the running surface of the rollers 69a. In addition, in the motor and control module 2 a hollow profile chamber is provided in which the electrical cables 2e are guided.

The following applies to the motor and control module 2 shown in FIG. 2: The motor and control module 2 has a profile housing 27 which, in the case shown, has the same dimensions and can be connected to the drive module 1. In the profile housing 27, which is open at the bottom, a toothed belt 28b is guided over two deflection rollers 28, which are each mounted in a rotary bearing 28c on vertically aligned axes of rotation 28a. One of the two deflection rollers 28 is driven by a rod-shaped motor 2a. Both the deflection rollers 28 and the drive motor 2a can be pushed into the housing 27 and can be fixed at the desired position with clamping screws. For this purpose, the profile housing 27 has on its upper horizontal leg 27b a sliding guide 27c running in the longitudinal direction of the profile. The advantage of this is that the position of the deflection rollers 28 on site can be optimally matched to the opening width of the door.

The driver bracket 25 fixed to the roller carriage 6 engages in the motor and control module 2. In order to allow access through the housing 5, both the vertical leg 63b of the drive module 1 and the vertical leg 27a of the motor and control module 2 are shortened. The essentially horizontally extending driver bracket 25 is fastened in a conventional manner to the toothed belt 28b via clamping connections 29. The driver 25 of the first sliding sash 10 reaches under the toothed belt 28b and the deflection rollers 28 and is connected on the opposite side with its vertically bent end 25b to the one strand of the toothed belt 28b. A second, oppositely moving wing 10 is connected in the same way to the other run of the toothed belt 28b, but without reaching under the deflection roller 28. The profile housing 27 is provided with a cover 5, which will be described in the following section. The mounting options on the drive module 1 have already been shown at the beginning. The following applies to the carrier module 3 shown in FIG. 1: The carrier module 3 has a profile housing in the same way as the modules 1 and 2 described above. Two hollow profile chambers are formed in it. Flat material can be accommodated in both chambers for supporting function. The dimensioning of the flat material depends on the stability requirements. A display and / or communication device can also be introduced in one of the chambers instead of the flat material. The chamber is also particularly suitable for receiving sensors to control the drive. In a departure from the illustration in the figure, the carrier module 3 can also be arranged adjacent to the drive module 1. In addition or as an alternative to the carrier module 3, the module 1 can also be screw-fastened to a stationary carrier or to the wall, as indicated in the figure. The support and fastening can be carried out in accordance with FIGS. 6 to 11.

As shown in FIG. 1, a separate display and communication module 4 can be arranged on the outer front of the entire unit.

The entire unit can be covered by a cover 5 with a U-shaped cross section (FIG. 1). In the U-legs of the hood 5 predetermined breaking points 5a or markings are provided so that the dimensions of the hood 5 can be easily adapted to the overall arrangement.

An alternative embodiment of the cover 5 is shown in Figure 2. The cover 5 has a vertical leg 5b and a horizontal leg 5c and is attached to the front of the motor and control module 2. For this purpose, the module 2 has a horizontally running groove 51 near its upper edge, which receives plastic sleeve-shaped elements 52 at regular intervals. On the vertical leg 5b of the cover 5, a horizontal web 53 with a crowned free end 54 is attached near its upper edge. This crowned end 54 is clipped into the groove 51 under pressure and fixed by the tension of the plastic elements 52. At the free end of the horizontal vision kels 5c of the cover 5, a mounting option 65 for sealing brushes 66 can be provided as shown.

Using the same modules, drives for different door types can be created in a corresponding manner, e.g. B. for single-leaf and double-leaf sliding doors. Telescopic sliding door drives can also be created, e.g. B. by using two drive modules 1 in parallel next to each other (Figure 12). Sliding doors in escape and rescue routes can also be set up with the modules. So-called break-out sliding sashes can also be used here, using an appropriately modified drive module or a separate break-out module. In addition, folding door drives can be set up using a special or supplemented drive module.

In the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 5, a U-profile housing 41 is provided, which is arranged open at the bottom. The drive module 1, the motor and control module 2 and the carrier module 3 are arranged in the U housing. Instead of these modules 1, 2, 3, which are complementarily adapted to the interior dimensions of the U housing 41, conventional units of a sliding door drive can also be attached and arranged therein. Compared to conventional drives, which usually have an L-shaped support, the U housing provides more mounting surfaces and a hidden receiving chamber, so that a separate cover panel can be omitted, especially if the sliding sash 10, as in FIG 4, engages with an upper horizontal edge in the interior of the U housing 41.

The entire drive unit can be integrated in a conventional transom of the mullion-transom facade, e.g. B. inserted there. Alternatively, the entire drive unit can be attached to the post or to the transom, such as. B. is shown in Figures 1 and 2. The drive unit can also replace the conventional bolt, whereby the connection of the facade cladding or - Glazing can take place via conventional connection elements which are attached to the drive unit replacing the bolt.

The exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 13 and 14 is a modification of the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 2. The motor and control devices, e.g. Drive motor 2a, control 2f, as well as other elements shown in the following figures, such as. B. the radar, the pulley, a socket, the transformer and the lock in a arranged on the front of the box-shaped drive housing 63 receiving groove 350 via clamps 351 with clamping screws 352 attached. The additional suspension device 33 on the upper edge of the drive housing, as in the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 2, is dispensed with. The receiving groove 350 is essentially T-shaped or C-shaped. It lies horizontally in the central area of the front of the drive housing 63 on its vertical leg 63b. The drive units and all other components can be inserted one behind the other in the receiving groove 350 and are each individually fastened via a clamp fastening 352. Alternatively, several horizontally extending grooves can be arranged in the front. Likewise, the receiving groove 350 can have a plurality of cutouts in the central region of the drive housing 63, which allow clamping blocks 351 to be introduced at these points. This is particularly advantageous if additional components are to be added or replaced later. Furthermore, the clamping stones 351 can be designed such that they are inserted into the receiving groove 350 at any point and only engage behind the ends of the groove 350 by turning through 90 degrees.

In an alternative embodiment, the clamping stones 351 are dispensed with. Preferably, all components except the drive units can be fastened in a receiving groove by simply hooking them in and then securing them, for example with a screw, which can be of the same or similar design as "the receiving groove 350. The version becomes particularly easy to install when a lockable bayonet lock is used to secure the hooked components.

The drive and control devices which are clamped in the receiving groove 352 are covered by a U-shaped cover 5, which forms a substantially cuboid receiving space 55 for the drive units. The toothed belt 28b is guided in the receiving space 55 in a lower horizontal plane with the deflection roller 28 (FIG. 15) and drive wheel 2c (FIG. 19). Above this level, the motor 2a, the control unit 2f, a battery pack 2g, a cable duct / cable holder 2h, a transformer pack 220 (consisting of two transformers 240 connected in series or in parallel) and the lock 9 are arranged in the receiving space 55.

In the sectional view of FIG. 13, only the control unit 2f can be seen of all the drive and control devices attached in the front receiving groove 350. It has an elongated box-like shape and is located directly above the drive belt level. The control unit 2f consists of an upper housing part 270, which receives the control boards (not shown) and is clamped in the front groove 350, and an L-shaped cover 271 which is attached to the upper part 270 from below. The control panels are inserted from the side into two corresponding horizontally extending insertion grooves 272 within the upper part 270. This allows simple retrofitting of additional boards at a later date. With the cover 271 removed, all electronic components are directly accessible. The side surfaces of the control unit 2f remain uncovered.

Below the left insertion groove 272, a heat sink 273 with a plurality of cooling fins is integrated in the housing upper part 270, in order to be able to dissipate the heat caused by the control cleats more quickly.

Below the control unit 2f, the drive belt 28b is shown, as well as the driver bracket 25 connected to the first door leaf 10 right leg 63b of the drive profile 63 ends at the level of the central web 64b, the driver bracket 25 can be guided horizontally from the upper edge of the wing to the drive belt 28b. The upper edge of the wing lies in the drive belt level. The driver bracket 25 runs just above the lower leg of the cover 5. It is screwed on the wing side onto the base plate 75 (FIG. 7) pushed into the upper edge of the wing, on which the suspension and adjustment device 7 is fastened. On the drive belt side, the drive bracket 25 has an upwardly bent end 25b which is screwed to a counterpart 28c, the drive belt 28b divided at this point being clamped between the bracket end 25b and the counterpart 25c. The drive belt 28b is divided into two at the attachment point of the driver bracket. This allows a reduction in the overall height, since the screwing of the temple end 25b and the counterpart 25c is no longer carried out above the drive belt, but lies directly in the drive belt plane.

FIG. 14 shows the driver bracket 25 of the second wing 10 and the deflection roller 28 behind it. The driver bracket 25 is guided horizontally from the upper edge of the wing below the front drive belt 28b and engages with a U-shaped end in the drive belt plane. The center piece of the U-shaped end has an adjusting device 25d, via which the strap length can be adjusted. The bracket end 25b is also screwed to a counterpart 25c and clamps the toothed belt 28b divided at this point.

In an alternative embodiment, the driver bracket 25 can also be guided above the drive belt 28b. This makes it possible to lower the overall level of the drive belt. In the areas of the receiving space 55, in which the bracket is not guided, this results in additional installation space.

In FIG. 14, the cable duct 2h, which is also clamped in the front groove 350 of the drive module 1, is arranged above the drive belt level. It has an overall rectangular shape and a functional division into two. The Left half 250 is enclosed on all sides except for an insertion opening 251 on the vertical front side and is used to guide loose cables. The right half 252 is open at the bottom and has on the top in the longitudinal direction extending grooves 253 for receiving functional component. A battery pack 2gh is shown, for example, which is fastened via a screw connection 261 to a bracket 260, which was inserted horizontally into the insertion grooves 253 of the cable duct 2h.

As an alternative to this, direct attachment of the battery pack 2g to a printed circuit board inserted into the insertion grooves 253 in the form of a plug-on module is also possible. The circuit board, not shown, has three to six plug contacts for connecting external devices, such as Radar 220, lock 9, etc., and a connector for a ribbon cable leading to the control unit 2f. The arrangement of the plug connections independent of the control board prevents unwanted damage to the control 2f when connecting external devices. Alternatively, however, it is also possible to attach a busbar instead of cabling.

The battery pack 2g is used in particular for FR doors to open or close the door in the event of a power failure. The energy supply of the battery pack is only sufficient for 2 to 3 movements. If a temporary maintenance of normal operation is desired even in the event of a power failure, e.g. for 0.5 to 1 hour, the alternative or additional installation of an emergency run package is possible, which allows, for example, 100 opening and closing processes.

The cable duct 2h can also be replaced by a second slide-in housing 270, as is used for the control unit 2f. The slide-in housing 270 is also clamped in the groove 350 on the front and accommodates the circuit board with the plug connections and the battery pack 2g. Due to their increased width, the plug connectors can also be arranged thereon in the transverse direction to the drive profile 1, which overall saves space. The following applies in general to the exemplary embodiments shown in FIGS. 13 to 20: The cuboid-shaped receiving space 55 formed by the U-shaped cap 5 adjoins the box-shaped drive profile 63 of the drive module 1, the upper horizontal edge of the receiving space or cap 5 with the The upper horizontal edge of the drive module 1 is aligned and also the lower horizontal edge of the receiving space or the cap 5 is aligned with the lower edge of the vertical leg 63a of the drive module 1 and the lower edge of the vertical leg 3b of the carrier module 3. The cross section of the receiving space 55 is rectangular and arranged so that the horizontal edge is longer than the vertical edge, preferably 1.5 to 2 times as long.

The cross section of the carriage 63, in which the roller carriages including the suspension and adjusting device 7 for the wing 10 are arranged, is essentially square, the vertical elongated leg 63a being approximately the same length as the horizontal edge of the carriage cross section.

Between the vertical leg 63a and the box-shaped housing part receiving the carriage 6, a recess 7a is formed, in which the suspension and adjustment device 7 and the upper edge of the wing 10 are arranged so as to engage. The recess 7a is due to the shortened in the figure right leg 63b to the receiving space 55 towards open so that the driver 25 can reach through.

The entire drive consisting of carrier module 3, drive module 1 and drive units is thus given a rectangular shape, the long edge being arranged horizontally and the short edge being arranged vertically. The upper edge of the wing 10 engages in this rectangular drive box, so that the upper edge of the wing 10 is thus covered at the front by the front of the drive or the cover 5.

In modified versions, the drive module 1 can be designed such that the rollers 69 and / or the carriages 6 are arranged laterally offset from the wing 10 and the lower edge of the rollers 69 below the upper edge of the wing 10 are arranged, preferably the axis of rotation of the rollers is arranged below the upper edge of the wing. The rollers 69 can be mounted separately or directly in the wing 10 or in separate roller carriages 6 which are connected to the wing 10. In the area where the rollers 69 or roller carriages 6 are arranged, the wing thickness can be reduced. In this embodiment, the rollers 69 preferably run in an open, e.g. B. L-shaped track, but it is possible on versions with a closed box-shaped track, z. B. encompassing the top edge of the wing 10 on both sides.

FIG. 15 shows a sectional view of the receiving space 55 delimited by the covering hood 5 in the plane of the deflection roller 28. An almost L-shaped holding arm 28d, which supports the deflection roller 28, is with its vertical leg by means of clamping screws 352 in the front groove 350 on the drive module 1 clamped. The horizontal leg of the holding arm carries the vertical axis of rotation 28a of the horizontally lying deflection roller 28. The deflection roller 28 is mounted on its axis of rotation 28a via a pivot bearing 28c. The toothed belt 28b guided on the deflection roller 28 is also shown.

The horizontally running T-shaped groove 350 is arranged approximately centrally on the front side of the vertical leg 63b of the drive housing 63, and extends over the entire length of the profile housing 63. A narrow projection 354 is formed on both sides of the groove 350 on the vertical leg 63b. The likewise T-shaped clamping block 351 received in the groove 350 has a threaded bore 353 and protrudes from the T-groove 350. The holding arm 28d, which carries the deflection roller 28, lies flat on the projection 354, the end of the clamping block 351 protruding from the groove 350 being received in a recess in the holding arm 28d. A clamping screw 352 is passed through the holding arm 28d and engages in the threaded bore 353 of the clamping block 351 and rests with its screw head 352a on the holding arm 28d. The clamping screw 352 pulls the clamping block 351 with its T-shaped end from the rear side onto the projection 354, which shoots off the groove 350 at the front, while at the same time the holding arm 28d is pressed against the projection 354 from the front. Terminal block 351 and holding arm 28d are thus firmly connected to one another and secured against further displacement. In the same way, all other drive and control elements are clamp-fastened in the groove 350.

In the sectional view of Figure 16, the radar 220 for controlling the door is shown. The housing 222 of the radar 220 is on the underside of the vertical leg of an upward-pointing, almost L-shaped holding arm

221 attached via a screw connection 224. The holding arm 221 is also clamped in the front groove 350 on the drive module 1. On the case

222 is arranged the sensor 223 which can be pivoted about a horizontal axis and which engages in the plane of the drive belt between the two toothed belts 28b. In order to allow the sensor 223 a clear view of the door vestibule, the cover 5 has a recess 500 below the radar 220.

The holding arm 221 for the radar 220 can also serve as a support for the cover 5 resting on the holding arm 221. The additional holding arm 520 shown in FIG. 20 can thus be omitted. It is particularly advantageous if the holding arm 221 also serves as a cable guide. For this purpose, cables can be inserted into the recess between the holding arm 221 and the drive module 1 from above.

In Figure 17, the left outer end of the door operator is shown in 3 different perspectives. FIG. 17a shows a view from below, FIG. 17b shows a front view and FIG. 17c shows a section along line XVII-XVII in FIG. 17a. In addition to the drive module 1, the carrier module 3, the cover 5 and the side part 510, the left-hand buffer 610 for the roller carriage 6, a socket 230 for connecting the power supply, and one of the clamping pieces 35 for connecting the carrier module 3 and the drive module 1 is shown.

In FIG. 17 a, the side part 510 is attached laterally to the drive module 1 by means of a first screw 511 and to the carrier module 3 by means of a second screw 512. The side part 510 has a rectangular basic shape and has a recess 515 below the drive module 1, which is up to height the central webs 64a, 64b extend and allow the roller carriage 6 to be moved to the end of the rail without the wing 10 striking the side part 510 (FIG. 17c). The carrier module 3 and the side part 510 are flush with each other on their vertical edge, as are the side part 510 and the cover 5. The height of the side part 510 is identical to the height of the drive module 1, the carrier module 3 and the cover 5. Das Side part 510 also serves as a seat for the cover 5. For this purpose, the side part 510 has latching points 516 in the central region of the horizontal edges, onto which the cover 5 is attached from the front.

A holding button 513 attached to the inside of the side part 510 serves to fasten a holding band connected to the cover 5, which for this purpose is clamped into a slot 513a within the holding button 513. On the other hand, the bracket band is screwed to the cover 5, or fastened with a clamping piece in a horizontal groove within the cover 5. The horizontal groove can also be a dovetail profile. If the hood 5 is removed from the side parts 510, for example when servicing the system, it hangs on the left-hand and right-hand retaining straps on the two mounting buttons 513 of the side parts 510. When closing the cover 5, a pin 514 supports near the front vertical edge of the side part 510 the winding of the support band.

The right-hand side part 510 shown in FIG. 19 has the same design as the left-hand side part 510 shown here. bracket 520 shown, which additionally supports the cover 5 in the middle. In addition to the support by the side parts 510 and the holding bracket 520, the cover 5 lies with its upper horizontal edge on a narrow shoulder 630 on the upper front edge of the drive module 1.

The socket 230 for connecting the power supply is screwed via two screw connections 231 to a base plate 232 arranged vertically in front of the drive module 1 (FIG. 17c). The base plate, in turn, is fastened in the receiving groove 350 arranged on the front of the drive module 1 via clamping stones 351 with a clamping screw 352. FIG. 17a additionally shows the mains plug 233 plugged into the socket 230 with the on / off switch 234 on the front.

FIG. 18 shows the two transformers 240 in a view from below, in a front view and in a sectional illustration along line XVIII-XVIII in FIG. 18b. The two transformers 240 are arranged side by side in front of the drive module 1 and are enclosed by the cover 5, with only a small margin remaining between the transformer 240 and cover 5. By using two transformers 240 instead of one, their overall height can be reduced. The two transformers 240 can be connected in series as well as in parallel. This results in greater flexibility for supplying drive motors of different dimensions. They are preferably toroidal transformers.

In the front view in FIG. 18b, the right of the two transformers 240 is shown cut away. The screw connection 241 can be seen, with which the transformer 240 is screwed and secured on the horizontal leg 242a of an L-shaped base plate 242. As shown in FIG. 18c, the vertical leg 242b is fastened in the receiving groove 350 arranged on the front of the drive module 1 by means of clamping stones 351 with clamping screws 352.

In an alternative embodiment, the two individual transformers 240 can also be replaced by a single transformer with special dimensions. This transformer can, for example, by suitable winding show a particularly slim oval shape with the same performance. The use of particularly slim magnetic sheets is also possible.

FIG. 19a shows a view from below of the right-hand end of the drive module 1 with the motor 2a arranged there, the transmission 2i and the drive pulley 2c for the toothed belt 28b coupled directly with the transmission 2i of the motor 2a. The fact that the drive wheel 2c is mounted directly on the output shaft of the transmission 2i saves a separate bearing block. The right side part 510 shown, which laterally covers the drive module 1 and the carrier module 3, is of identical design to the left side part 510 already described in FIG. 17.

The motor 2a is essentially rod-shaped and is arranged in the longitudinal direction of the drive. Including drive disk 2c, motor 2a takes up the entire installation space between drive module 1 and cover 5, as can be seen in the sectional illustration of FIG. 19c along line IXX in FIG. 19a. The drive slide 2c is aligned horizontally and arranged below the motor 2a.

The drive unit with motor 2a and drive pulley 2c is fastened on a tensioning device 370, which enables tensioning of the toothed belt 28b by displacing the complete drive unit on the tensioning device 370 in the longitudinal direction of the drive. The tensioning device 370 consists of a stationary abutment 371 and a slide 372 which can be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the drive. The abutment 371 is clamped on the drive module 1 by means of two clamping screws 352 in the front groove 350. The carriage 372 is placed with an angled arm (FIG. 19c) only on the front groove 350 and is guided therein. The carriage 372 is held in the groove 350 by means of a clamping claw 376 ^" , which rests on the angled arm of the carriage 372 guided in the groove 350. In front of and behind the carriage 372, a conventional clamping block 351 connects to the groove. On the carriage 372 is the complete drive unit with motor 2a, gear 2i and drive disc be mounted 2c. The clamping claw 376 is fastened on the two clamping stones 351 by means of two clamping screws 352, whereby it grips around the clamping stones 351 with their ends bent downwards. When the clamping screws 352 are loosened, the entire unit consisting of clamping blocks 351, clamping claw 376 and slide 372 can be moved along the groove 350. Then the tensioning claw 376 is supported under the tensioning action of the drive belt 28b on a threaded pin 373 protruding in the longitudinal direction from the abutment 371.

To tension the drive belt 28b, the two clamping blocks 351 are first inserted at a corresponding point on the front groove 350. Between the clamping stones 351, the carriage 372 with the drive unit is placed on the groove 350 and finally the clamping claw 376 is screwed onto the clamping stones 351, but without tightening the screw connection. The clamping claw prevents the carriage 372 with the drive unit attached to it from jumping out of the groove 350, but the entire arrangement together with the drive unit can still be moved in the longitudinal direction of the drive. By moving the entire unit, the drive belt 28b can now be roughly pretensioned. Next to the left of the two clamping blocks 351, the abutment 351 is mounted in the front groove 350, the clamping claw 376 being supported on the threaded pin 373 protruding from the abutment 371. For fine adjustment, the set screw 373 is then only further rotated out of the abutment 371, the set screw 373 pushing the clamping claw 376 together with the slide 372 and the clamping stones 351 in the groove 350 in front of it and thereby further tensioning the drive belt 28b. In order to enable the turning of the threaded pin 373, the threaded bore 375, which receives the threaded pin 373 in the abutment 371, is made on the side facing away from the plain bearing 372. After reaching the optimal position, the threaded pin 373 can be fixed in its position by means of a further clamping screw 374. If the drive belt 28b has sufficient tension, the clamping claw 376 with the clamping stones 351 is clamped in the front groove 350 by tightening the clamping screws 352, the slide 372 guided in the groove 350 below the clamping claw 376 at the same time is fixed together with the drive unit. The abutment 371 is then no longer required for further support.

Alternatively, with the help of the abutment 371, the individually standing deflection roller 28 on the other side of the drive 1 can also be adjusted with the aid of the abutment in order to tension the drive belt 28b.

The buffer 610, which prevents the roller carriage from running onto the side part 510, is shown in dashed lines in the drive module 1. The buffer 610 is received in receiving grooves 612 on the undersides of the central webs 64a, 64b (FIG. 19c). The square base body 613 fastened in the receiving grooves 612 has an arm 614 which projects vertically into the upper chamber 6a of the drive profile 6 and which is secured against displacement against the upper side of the drive 63 by a clamping screw 611. Facing the roller carriage (not shown), an elastic damper 615 is attached to this vertical arm 614, which dampens the run-up of the roller carriage.

In addition to the locking device 9, the radar 220, one of the two drivers 25, the holding bracket 350 and the roller carriage 6 together with the wing 10 attached to it are also shown in FIG. 20a. The figure shows a view from below in the middle area of the drive module 1.

The driver 25 coupled to the outer run of the drive belt 28b is shown without the adjustment option 25d. Its outer end is connected by a screw 25e to the counterpart 25c and clamps the two ends of the drive belt 28b divided at this point. The wing-side end of the driver 25a is connected to the base plate 75 inserted in the wing top by two screw fasteners 2f. The base plate 75 in turn is fixed by two clamping screws 75a.

In addition to the attachment of the driver 25, the screw attachment 76 of the bracket 74 can be seen on the base plate 75. The wing 10 and the roller carriage 6 are indicated by dashed lines in the figure. The cutout 620 in the drive profile 63, which serves to insert the roller carriage 6, can also be clearly seen in this figure. The recess 620 is secured on both sides by buffer 610 during operation.

Alternatively, the drive profile 63 can also be divided into two by dividing the drive profile 63 in its axial center, i.e. a left and a right partial profile for the left and the right wing is available separately. This is indicated in dashed lines in the overall illustration in FIG. 21. The two sub-profiles are fastened separately to the carrier module 3. In the middle, a recess for inserting the roller carriage 6 remains free. A reinforcing element can be used to increase the load-bearing capacity in the middle area. In a further embodiment, the cutout can also be punched out in the end region of the drive profile. In this case, the buffers arranged in the middle of the profile are omitted.

Finally, it is also possible to make the drive profile 63 shorter on one side than the carrier module 3 in order to allow the roller carriage 6 to be inserted into the remaining lateral recess. In this case, the side part 510 would be fastened to the drive profile with axial stud bolts. The remaining recess could also be used to thread the cables for the power supply. Alternatively, a recess can also be provided in the rear profile of the drive module 1 for this purpose.

The radar 220 already described in FIG. 16 is not to be explained in more detail here. In addition to the radar 220, the retaining bracket 520, which supports the cover 5 in addition to the side parts 510, is clamped in the front groove 350 by means of tensioning screws 352.

The locking device 9 is also clamped in the front groove 350 by means of an angled holding arm 91 which is offset to the side and by means of tensioning screws 352. The locking device 9 does not have to be arranged exclusively in the central region of the sliding door drive. For example, the locking device 9 can act directly on the gear and this Block locking of the sliding sash. For this purpose, the lock 9 can also be arranged directly on the fastening device 370 for the motor 2a and transmission without a separate holding arm 91.

FIG. 21 shows an overall overview of the components shown in FIGS. 13 to 20 in order to give an impression of their arrangement on the drive module 1. The following elements are shown from left to right: side part 510, socket 230, transformer 240, deflection roller 28, cable holder 2h with battery pack 2g, lock 9, radar 220, bracket 520, control unit 2f, tensioning device 370, drive pulley 2c, motor 2a and second side part 510. Four buffers 610 and the central recess 620 can be seen in the drive module 1 itself which is fastened to the carrier module 3.

The individual components are preferably placed on the drive independently of the overall width and opening width of the drive. This means that the length of the cables required to connect components can largely be selected independently of the overall width of the drive. An undesirable "cable tangle" is avoided.

FIG. 23 finally shows a cover panel 530, with which the drive module 1 is covered, provided that no drive and control elements are installed, as is the case, for example, with non-automatic sliding doors. The cover panel 530 has a convexly curved front side and is fastened in the front groove 350 of the drive module 1 by means of clamping stones 351 and clamping screws 352. The upper horizontal edge of the cover panel 530 is flush with the front upper horizontal edge of the drive module and the lower horizontal edge of the cover panel 530 is at the level of the lower edge of the vertical leg 63a of the drive module 1. The width of the cover panel 530 corresponds to the width of the drive module 1.
