Device for locking, for supporting and for forcing of doors or windows firmly against a door- or window frame

0001The invention relates to a device for locking, mounting and pressing from outside lying the sphere of influence of a lock or a latch portions of doors or Windows on a door or window frame.

0002Both doors and windows when there is always the problem that this often made from wood parts forgiven and therefore no longer close tightly. Also is increasingly the demand raised for more security in doors and windows, wherein a Such security alone through the only existing closure part approximately in the middle based on the total height of a door or window by no means sufficient.

0003Therefore, there are also very expensive and therefore cost-intensive design variants been used to take account of these requirements. In this also electronic Controls used to form a door tightly closing.

0004The present invention has therefore set itself the task to provide a device with which in structurally simple manner a dense and clean closure over the entire height of a door or a window is made possible.

0005According to the invention this is achieved by at least two each in operative connection, free cantilevered, rotatable on a door or a window or a door or window frame mounted lever arms, which at the door or window frame or to a door or each with a employed a window formed with an insertion opening for the lever arms Closing element cooperating with at least one lever arm close to the door or to the Window arranged closure part is mounted, wherein said lever arms when the door is in engage the associated closure elements and or by increasing closing door Windows are in the insertion of the locking elements are increasingly introduced and with two or more than two lever arms spaced apart on a common, on the door or on Window or rotatably mounted on the door or window frame rod mounted rotatably.

0006This particular configuration and arrangement of a device is a secure pressing a door or a window over its entire height to the associated door or window frame causes. The door or window are located near the existing se closure part, so also in the Region of a latch lock set and an associated Schliessbleches in closed position of the door or window firmly pressed to the door or window frame. This section is thus always a fixed pressing of the door or window at the door or Joinery guaranteed. If then close this closure part a corresponding lever arm is present, which is pivoted when closing the door or window in the closed position is, then is necessarily also a further wegliegende lever arm in the first lever arm Is operatively connected, accommodated in the same closed position, so that therefore the door or Window in this part of the closure further wegliegenden section fixed to the door or Joinery is pressed. It is thus independent of the type and arrangement of the Closure part always ensured that lie further away from the cover part Portions of the door or window to be pressed firmly against the door or window frame, also when the door or window are moved accordingly.

0007It is therefore also in renovations in older doors, especially in balcony doors tight and clean closing possible. Especially with fire compartment doors and can apartment doors so that in a structurally simple manner and especially with relatively low Returns a denser and stronger conclusion be reached. It is therefore particularly in so-called Passive houses, the possibility has been created to provide tight-sealing entrance doors, because only a tight building envelope, the desired values ​​and properties Passive Houses are achieved.

0008The present invention, therefore, is a firm pressing of the door or of the window on the full height achieved without creating a directly interconnected with the closure part Locking system has been created. Through the trap in the door or even by a Key is locked, the whole system. Without an additional locking by a Closure part or a door latch includes the device according to the present invention is not, because of the nature of the construction can take place no blockage. The inventive device thus brings a latch holder and contact pressure in dependence upon the interlocking, Holder and contact pressure close to the actual closure of the door or window, wherein by the movement and the lead near the closing member arranged lever arms also more distant areas of the door or window in the same manner to the door or Frames are pressed.

0009The inventive device is thus solely by pressing shut a door leaf or a window locked in the area of ​​the closure part, but the existing lever arms a pressing on a substantially larger portion - even advantageous over the entire height a door or a window - may cause. This device is therefore also suitable for electric door openers and is readily adaptable for left- or right-opening doors and windows used, wherein especially a very simple assembly is given.

0010Due to the inventive embodiment, thus, there are two or more than two lever arms on the rotatably mounted rod firmly connected. Thus, if a portion near the shutter lying lever arm is pivoted to the appropriate position, then it is achieved that also corresponding to more distant portions of the door or window in the same way are pressed.

0011A further advantageous measure is seen in the fact that two or more than two lever arms in each case form a mounting unit and a rotationally receiving this rod. Thus, it is the Possibility has been created to make optimal use preassembled assembly units, in particular a positive effect during renovation work at doors or windows.

0012It is of particular advantage if the belonging at each door or window each and Window or door frame in each case two assembly units and the necessary Sealing elements are arranged, whereby at least in each case one mounting unit and below are mounted above a closure part, so a lock, a latch, or the like. It is therefore, starting from the closure part, in its category, a corresponding Contact pressure of the door or the window to the window or door frame takes place, an effective reached pressing over the entire height of a door or a window.

0013An optimal structural configuration provides that the lever arms bent at an obtuse angle as Tabs are formed, which at its freely projecting end an essentially cross- having the free end of the tabs aligned shoe. It is thus a good attachment of the Lever arm possible in the area of ​​the closing element and it is also the largest possible friction reduced, which results in pivoting of the lever arms. In this context, it is furthermore advantageous if the shoe an acute angle with the free end of the tab exported lever arm encloses. It is therefore at the beginning of the insertion operation of the free end the lever arms in the corresponding closing element a larger sliding surface present, with then the final closing process, ie when the pressure in a warped door or the like is greater, the sliding surface of the free end of the lever arms is smaller.

0014Furthermore, the invention proposes that the formed for engagement of the lever arms Closing elements an insertion slot and it then have a guide profile, the formed at the free end of each lever arm shoe during the closing itself the rear wall of the guide profile is supported. It is thus an optimal guide for the guaranteed free end of the lever arms, wherein also the door or window when Closing procedure is not difficult to move. The optimal design of each other abutting portions and the small leverage of the lever arms are relatively small transfer forces on the lever arms firmly interconnecting rod.

0015It is further proposed that the inside width of the guide profile in the Verdrehebene The lever arm is so dimensioned that measured and in the closed position of the door or window, Thus in the closed position of the lever arms, the two free edge regions of the sliding shoe on the rear and the front wall of the guide profile support. The lever arm is thus in the final closed position of the door or window in a certain way in the guide profile clamped verschwenksicher, so that the lever arm further away in the same Position with respect to the closing element is. This can be ensured always that even pressed more distant portions of a door or a window in the same way will.

0016In this context, a possible variant is the fact that in the twisting direction Lever arms measured width of the skids at least approximately to the inside width of the Guide profile corresponds measured in this plane. This construction would be provided when the slide shoe in the closed position of the door or window practically almost perpendicular to the would oriented corresponding walls of the guide profile.

0017A particularly advantageous configuration is achieved when the lever arms and thus of Lever arms and rod existing mounting unit counter to the closing direction of the door or Window spring-loaded in a rest position are maintained. With this arrangement it is achieved that the lever arms in penetrating the closing and thus in the guide profile against the Force of a spring can be rotated and thus towards the open position of the door or window are spring-loaded. This ensures that during the opening of the shutter member, so even when move opening a latch lock, the door or window directly into the open position is namely at least so far that the lever arms are back in their rest position. Thus, there is a movement in the opening direction of the door or window, namely at least so far that a corresponding door or window gap gap is formed. Such construction also affects very positive with an electric door opener. As soon as the electrically actuated locking is achieved, cause the spring loaded lever arms springing open of the door or of the window around a small area, so that is recognized immediately that the door is now open.

0018More is proposed that the rear wall of the guide section to directly to Limitation of the closing element is guided and which located at the front wall of the guide profile, set back starts to form an insertion portion for the free end of the lever arm trained shoe. It can thus of the assembly according to the invention Device required space be kept substantially smaller, since according to the lever arms on the surface, for example in Türfalzbereich or protrude also in the frame area have to. At the beginning of the closing process, however, requires a corresponding system of free End of the lever arms, in particular the shoes, so that it on the can support corresponding wall of the guide section.

0019In the present invention, it is also possible that at least one lever arm or additionally arranged on the mounting unit includes a deployable arm and again resettable Blocking member is associated. It can allow the arrangement of such lever arms for an additional Function can be used, is in the fact prevents the free end of the lever arm from can be pulled out of the closing element. With such an arrangement could be a kind Ventilation slot are achieved with windows or doors, but still sufficient Burglary safety would be guaranteed. It can thus as it were a door or window at least a gap will be left wide open to ventilate the rooms according to or vent can, without the door or window could then be opened from the outside.

0020A particularly simple design is possible with the inventive device when the Assembly unit prefabricated in a groove on the rebate side of a door or a window is insertable. It only requires the arrangement of a corresponding groove on the door or window and Of course the additional arrangement of the sealing elements on the associated portion of a door or Window frame. So it's just for renovations, but also in new buildings, an optimum Use of the inventive device is possible.

0021It was already mentioned that at each door or window each two mounting units and the necessary sealing elements are present. Another way is characterized by an insertable in a door or window closure member, at its upper and lower Each use an assembly unit is connected with lever arms or attachable. So it is conceivable, the inventive device in combination with a closure part install or use, in which case in one operation with the slots or recessed niches for holding the assembly units and for receiving the closure part can be produced.

0022Further inventive features and special advantages are in the following Description based on the drawings explained in more detail.

0023In a device according to the present invention is the locking bracket and causes contact pressure of doors or windows 1 2 on a door frame or a window frame 3 4 will. This involves mainly the lock holder and pressing from outside the Sphere of influence of a lock 5 lying sections 6, 7. When a door, as shown in Fig. 1 shows a closing part 5, so for example, a lock, a latch or like or should be closed via a latch 8, then is precisely in this Region 9 of the door 1 a secure and tight abutment against the door frame 3 ensured. A door can However, do not warp slightly in Sections 6 and 7, so that under certain circumstances even a very large gap remains and thus of tightness or rich concerns no more talk is.

0024With the present invention the possibility now be created that also outside the Sphere of influence of a closing part 5 lying sections 6 and 7 of a door 1 firmly and tightly to the door frame 3 can be pressed. For this purpose, at least two mutually in Operative connection, freely projecting, rotatably mounted on the door 1 lever arms 10, 11 provided, each with a formed locking elements 12 on the door frame 3 cooperate. At least one lever arm 10 is arranged in each case close to the door 1 Closing part 5 mounted. Upon closing the door 1, the lever arms 10 and 11 engage in the associated closure elements 12, where this through mutual operative connection Lever arms 10 and 11 are forcibly simultaneous movement of the same must be done. If thus introduced the near the closing part 5 arranged lever arm 10 in the closing 12 is carried out and the same a corresponding pivoting, then in the same way and in the same mass of more distant lever arm 11 is rotated. It is thus a simple way and Manner, a section of remote 6 or 7 of the door 1 is pressed against the door frame 3, so that even with corresponding warped doors and a whopping tight contact thereof to the associated door frame 3 is ensured.

0025There are two or more than two lever arms 10 and 11 apart from each other at a common, rotatably mounted on the door 1 rod 13. It always make two or more than two lever arms 10, 11 and a rod 13 fixed in itself construction, wherein each of these two or more than two lever arms 10, 11 and the rotationally accommodating this Rod form an assembly unit 14 13 Construction formed. Such mounting unit 14 is prefabricated usable on the rebate side 16 of door 1 into a groove 15th About an appropriate Retaining rail 17, which is fixed by a bore 18 through means of screws on the door 1 can be, is also a storage for rotatably receiving the rod. 13

0026As can be seen in FIG. 1, a mounting unit 14, respectively above and below of the closure member 5 is mounted to the door first Of course, then also always the corresponding Closure elements 12 assigned under. 3

0027It is within the scope of the invention also conceivable, in particular at relatively high doors in the field of Sections 6 and 7 of the door 1 to respectively provide two successive mounting units 14, wherein triggered again by the respectively nearer the closing part 5 and closer to the then each following lever 10 or 11 lying lever arm 10 or 11 of the subsequent Mounting unit in turn get the same functions. It is therefore always ensured that even in the more distant lever arm a close fit is given, this whopping Concerns of door 1 on the door frame 3 and in the next assembly unit in the same way becomes effective.

0028In the present invention, it is also conceivable, in a mounting unit 14, more than two Lever arms 10 to provide 11, in which case just in shorter intervals optimal locking can be carried out or a tight tightening the door to the door frame.

0029The configuration and shape of the lever arms 10, 11, each of which in the illustration of FIG. 2 to 6 are provided with the reference numeral 10, is best seen from these FIGS. 2-6. These Lever arms 10 are advantageously designed as an obtuse bent tabs which at its freely projecting end of a substantially transverse to the free end of the tab aligned sliding block 19 have. The shoe 19 includes an acute angle with the free end of the running as a tab lever arm 10 a. The Procedure of the lever arms 10 formed locking elements 12 have an insertion slot 20 and it then a Guide profile 21. Trained at the free end of each lever arm 10 sliding block 19 is supported during the closing of the rear wall 22 of the guide profile 21st The clear width W of the guide profile 21 is measured in the Verdrehebene of the lever arm 10 so dimensioned such that in the closed position of the door 1 and thus in the closed position of the lever arms 10 the two edge regions of the slide shoe 19 on the rear wall 22 and the front Wall 23 of the guide section 21 are supported. Thus, it is in the locked position a kind Clamping for the free end of the lever arm 10 and of course the other lever arms 11 etc. ensured, so that a constant optimal pressing of the door to the frame 3, and thus a pressing is guaranteed on the seal profile 24th is Depending on the structural design while the level of the sliding block 19 in the closed position at an acute angle to the walls 22 and 23 aligned or it would also be conceivable that the in this final closing position Shoe 19 is perpendicular to the walls 22 and 23 substantially, so that then the in Twisting of the lever arms 10 measured width of the shoes 19 at least approximately the clear width W of the guide section 21 in this plane corresponds measured.

0030In the invention, the sliding shoe 19 can have various cross-sectional shapes. So it would also be conceivable to provide a circular cross section, so that a sort of roll-shaped would equal shoe available.

0031A particularly advantageous construction is obtained when the lever arms 10 and 11 and thus which consists of lever arms 10, 11 and rod 13 mounting unit counter to the closing direction the door 1 is spring-loaded in a rest position are maintained. The lever arms 10, 11 are so against the force of a spring is pivoted into the closed position, but this spring action no influence on any lock, holder or pressing of the door 1 to the Doorway 3 has. It is thus ensured solely by this spring load that Lever arms 10, 11 in the open position of a door 1 always in the corresponding rest position remain and further comprising, after opening the closure part, these springs a direct Forcing the door away from the door frame 1 3 cause. This is especially when using electrical Strikes advantageous.

0032The rear wall 22 of the guide section 21 is directly up to limit Closing element out 12, while the wall located at the front 23 of the guide section 21 set back starts. Thereby, a lead-in area 25 has been provided to the lighter and 10 to allow space gentler feeding the slide shoe 19 of the lever arms. It is characterized a smaller design of the device possible.

0033In the above description was based essentially that the arranged inventive device to a door, in cooperation with a door frame becomes. In the present invention, it is also possible and in accordance with window equip window frames in this fashion. It is also possible reverse the to cause constructive means, namely by the lever arms 10, 11 and the associated rod 13 are formed on the frame 3 and the closure elements 12 on the door 1, as for example in in Figs. 11 and Fig. 12 shown blunt abutting doors is the case.

0034In the context of the invention it is also possible, of for locking, mounting and pressing Doors 1 or 2 windows provided lever arms 10 or even additional lever arms provide, wherein a deployable, and again resettable locking member 26 may be provided here, so that For example, in the embodiment according to FIGS. 13 and 14, the window 2 a small gap can be opened to thereby permit ventilation. Once this locking member again is reset, the firmly held by the locking member 26 can arm again in the Rest swivel back and the window can be opened. In this context are of course a variety of design variants are conceivable, which are not explained here in detail. Essential and important, however, is always that at least two spaced apart arranged and interrelated fixed operative connection lever arms are provided, through which a lying removed from pressing against the closure member of a door or window, Sections can be carried out in an optimal manner.

0035The assembly units can be used and mounted separately from the shutter member. 5 It is in the scope of the invention also feasible directly to a closing part 5 each have a join mounting unit 14 with corresponding lever arms 10, 11, or to recognize or integrally connected to the corresponding structural components of the closure element. In particular, the mounting of such a device would be possibly more easily perform.
