Abstract

A fastening of end caps to housings that are made of profiles and are used for door-specific devices on automatically operated doors. The end caps are thereby invisibly clipped or clipped in a concealed manner onto installation elements that have previously been connected with the sections, whereby at least one of the installation elements is simultaneously used as a fastening for the housing.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Befestigung von Endkappen an Gehäusen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1, die aus Profilen bestehen und für türspezifische Einrichtungen für automatisch betriebene Türen eingesetzt werden. Dieses sind insbesondere Drehflügeltüren, Sensorleisten, Sensorleisten mit integrierter Gleitschiene, Schiebetürantriebe usw.The invention relates to an attachment of end caps to housings according to the preamble of claim 1, which consist of profiles and for door-specific devices for automatically operated doors be used. These are, in particular, swing doors, sensor strips, Sensor strips with integrated slide rail, sliding door drives, etc.

In der EP 0 544 134 A1 wird eine Abdeckhaube beschrieben, die an den Stirnseiten eines Gehäuses unsichtbar angebracht wird. Dabei geschieht dieses über Rasten, die als Ausprägungen ausgebildet worden sind, wobei gleichzeitig die Endkappen entgegengerichtete Rastausnehmungen aufweisen und somit ohne Werkzeug mit dem Gehäuse befestigt werden können. Dabei werden die Endkappen von oben aufgeschoben und verrasten mit dem Gehäuse.EP 0 544 134 A1 describes a cover that is attached to the End faces of a housing is invisibly attached. It happens this over notches that have been designed as forms, whereby at the same time the end caps facing the opposite recesses have and thus be attached to the housing without tools can. The end caps are pushed on from above and locked in place with the housing.

Gerade bei Gehäusen, die aus stranggepreßten Materialien bestehen und dabei nach Möglichkeit einstückig hergestellt werden und in ihrem äußeren Erscheinungsbild als ansprechend anzusehen sind, ist einer Befestigung der herkömmlichen Art, nämlich durch Schrauben innerhalb des Profils nicht der nötige Raum gegeben. Darüber hinaus ist es oft schwierig, derartige Profile, da sie in unterschiedlichster Länge ihre Anwendung finden, auch immer in befriedigender Art und Weise zu befestigen. Gleichzeitig ist eine dermaßen schlecht zugängliche Befestigungsart bei der Montage sehr zeitaufwendig, so daß hohe Montagekosten anfallen, weil z.B. ein Durchbohren der Profile nicht möglich ist.Especially with housings that are made of extruded materials and if possible be made in one piece and in their outer Appearance to be regarded as appealing is an attachment the conventional type, namely by screwing inside the Profile not given the necessary space. In addition, it is often difficult such profiles, as they are used in different lengths find, always fasten in a satisfactory manner. At the same time, such a type of attachment is difficult to access assembly is very time-consuming, so that high assembly costs are incurred, because e.g. it is not possible to drill through the profiles.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die Mängel des Standes der Technik zu beseitigen und eine Befestigungsart zu finden, die unabhängig von der Profillänge angewendet werden kann und gleichzeitig eine unsichtbare Befestigung der Endkappen und des Gehäuses bietet.The object of the invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art eliminate and find a mounting method that is independent of the Profile length can be applied while being invisible Attachment of the end caps and the housing provides.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung wird gemäß dem Patentanspruch 1 gelöst, wobei die Unteransprüche eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wiedergeben. Dabei werden die Endkappen über zwischengeschaltete Montageelemente, die innerhalb des Profils (Gehäuses) eingeclipst werden und das Profil gleichzeitig damit an dem Montageort festsetzen, unsichtbar befestigt werden. Dabei werden die Montageelemente so ausgebildet, daß sie in Kammern bzw. zwischen Stegen, die an/in dem Profil vorhanden sind, verklemmt werden. Diese Verklemmung wird beispielsweise dadurch erreicht, daß Teile des Querschnittes der Montageelemente federnd ausgelegt werden, um so ein Einstecken innerhalb des Profilendbereiches zu gewährleisten. Darüber hinaus ist an mindestens einem der Montageelemente ein Befestigungsschenkel vorhanden, der eine Montage und damit gleichzeitig eine Befestigung des gesamten Profils an dem Montageort zuläßt. Dieses geschieht durch eine Bohrung, die sich innerhalb des Befestigungsschenkels befindet.The object of the invention is achieved according to claim 1, the subclaims reflect a further embodiment of the invention. The end caps are placed over intermediate assembly elements, which are clipped into the profile (housing) and at the same time fix the profile at the installation location, invisible be attached. The assembly elements are designed so that they exist in chambers or between webs on / in the profile are jammed. This deadlock is caused, for example achieved that parts of the cross section of the mounting elements resilient be designed to be inserted within the profile end area to ensure. In addition, at least one of the Mounting elements have a mounting leg, which is an assembly and at the same time an attachment of the entire profile to the Allows installation location. This happens through a hole that is inside of the fastening leg.

Ein weiteres Montageelement kann beispielsweise in anderer Art mit dem Profil stirnseitig verbunden werden, wobei hierfür innerhalb des Profils vorhandene Schraubkanäle ausgenutzt werden. Gleichzeitig kann auch ein Montageelement so geformt sein, daß es eine Kabelzugentlastung mit realisiert. Dieses ist beispielsweise in der Form möglich, daß das Montageelement einen Schlitz aufweist, der in einer Bohrung endet. Der Schlitz muß sich in diesem Fall in dem Bereich befinden, in dem sich die Montagebohrung zur Befestigung in dem Schraubkanal befindet. Gleichzeitig sind an diesem Montageelement Rastungen angeformt, die mit Rastungen bzw. Vorsprüngen innerhalb der Endkappen in der Art zusammenwirken, daß die Endkappe nur aufgesteckt werden muß. Um einen noch sicheren Sitz zu gewährleisten, können auch an der Endkappe Vorsprünge angeformt sein, die formmäßig so gestaltet sind, daß sie innerhalb des Profils dem Verlauf der Wandungen angepaßt sind und somit ein Verrücken nach dem Aufclipsen der Endkappen nicht mehr möglich ist. Sollen die Endkappen wieder entfernt werden, so ist dies ohne Werkzeug ebenfalls wie das Aufsetzen möglich, da die Endkappen nur abgezogen werden müssen.Another mounting element can, for example, in a different way with the Profile are connected at the front, for this purpose within the profile existing screw channels can be used. At the same time, too a mounting element be shaped so that it has a cable strain relief realized. This is possible, for example, in the form that the mounting element has a slot that ends in a bore. The slot In this case it must be in the area in which the mounting hole is for fastening in the screw channel. simultaneously detents are formed on this mounting element, with detents or projections within the end caps cooperate in the way that the end cap only has to be put on. To make it even more secure To ensure fit, protrusions can also be molded onto the end cap be formally designed so that they are within the profile are adapted to the course of the walls and thus a shift after clipping on the end caps is no longer possible. Should they End caps are removed again, so this is also without tools how to put it on, since the end caps are only removed have to.

Die Erfindung wird anhand eines möglichen Ausführungsbeispieles der Figur 1 wiedergegeben. The invention is based on a possible embodiment of the Figure 1 reproduced.

Das Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 1 zeigt beispielsweise ein Gehäuse 5, welches als Profil einer Sensorleiste mit integrierter Gleitschiene in Form einer Kammer 6 ausgebildet ist. Dabei weist das Gehäuse 5 innen Möglichkeiten für die Aufnahme von elektronischen Platinen 8 auf, so daß die Strahlung, z.B. Infrarot, eines solchen Sensors durch ein innerhalb der Kontur angepaßtes Fenster 7 abgestrahlt werden kann. Darüber hinaus sind in dem Gehäuse 5 in Längsrichtung verlaufende Schraubkanäle 9, 10 vorhanden.The exemplary embodiment in FIG. 1 shows, for example, a housing 5, which is shaped as a profile of a sensor strip with an integrated slide rail a chamber 6 is formed. The housing 5 has options inside for receiving electronic boards 8 so that the Radiation, e.g. Infrared, such a sensor through one inside the Contour adapted window 7 can be emitted. Furthermore are longitudinal screw channels 9 in the housing 5, 10 available.

In diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sind zwei unterschiedliche Montageelemente 3, 4 wiedergegeben worden, um die universelle Befestigungsmöglichkeit der Endkappen 2 zu verdeutlichen.In this embodiment, there are two different mounting elements 3, 4 have been reproduced to the universal mounting option to clarify the end caps 2.

Das Montageelement 3 besteht dabei im wesentlichen aus einem Befestigungsschenkel 17, der von einer Befestigungsbohrung 18 durchdrungen wird. Über die Befestigungsbohrung 18 wird das Montageelement 3 mit der daran befestigten Sensorleiste, nämlich dem Gehäuse 5, auf jeder Endseite beispielsweise an einer Tür oder oberhalb der Tür befestigt. In einem Winkel von etwa 90° steht zu dem Befestigungsschenkel 17 ein Träger 21. An dem Träger 21 sind Federschenkel 19 maßlich so angeformt, daß sie in die Kammer 6 des Gehäuses 5 eingeführt werden können. Gleichzeitig ist jedoch auch noch in gleicher Richtung, wie die Federschenkel 19, ein Steg 12 vorhanden, der durch einen Einschnitt 29 von den Federschenkeln 19 getrennt ist. Der Einschnitt 29 weist annähernd die Breite des Steges 26 auf, der sich innerhalb des Gehäuses 5 befindet. Somit ist es möglich, den Steg 12 innerhalb einer weiteren Kammer 30 des Gehäuses 5 einzuschieben. Damit beide Lappen, d.h. die Federschenkel 19 und der Steg 12, auch entsprechend gut in dem Gehäuse 5 eingesetzt werden können, befindet sich beispielsweise im Endbereich, d.h. nahe dem Träger 21 eine Querschnittsverjüngung 20, wodurch der Federschenkel 19 mit einer gewissen Vorspannung ausgestattet werden kann. Um an einem auf der Montageseite liegenden Schenkel 27 des Profils 30 beim Einstecken vorbeizukommen, ist ein Rücksprung 28 an dem Montageelement 3 vorhanden, so daß die rückwärtige Seite des Befestigungsschenkels 17 an dem Montageort auch plan anliegt. The mounting element 3 consists essentially of a mounting leg 17, which is penetrated by a mounting hole 18 becomes. About the mounting hole 18, the mounting member 3 with the attached sensor bar, namely the housing 5, on each Attached, for example, to a door or above the door. In there is an angle of approximately 90 ° to the fastening leg 17 Carrier 21. Spring legs 19 are integrally formed on the carrier 21 so that that they can be inserted into the chamber 6 of the housing 5. At the same time, however, it is also in the same direction as the spring legs 19, a web 12 is present, which by an incision 29 of the spring legs 19 is separated. The incision 29 has approximately the width of the web 26, which is located within the housing 5. It is thus possible to bridge the web 12 within a further chamber 30 insert the housing 5. So that both lobes, i.e. the feather legs 19 and the web 12, also correspondingly well in the housing 5 can be used, for example, is located in the end area, i.e. near the beam 21 a cross-sectional taper 20, whereby the Spring legs 19 are equipped with a certain bias can. To on a leg 27 lying on the mounting side To come over profile 30 when inserting, a recess 28 is on the mounting element 3, so that the rear side of the mounting leg 17 also lies flat at the installation site.

Das zweite Montageelement 4 ist anders gestaltet und übernimmt darüber hinaus neben der Verrastung mit der Endkappe 2 eine weitere Funktion. Dieses Montageelement 4 wird über eine Befestigungsbohrung 23 innerhalb des Schraubkanals 9 mittels eines Schraubelementes an das Gehäuse 5 geschraubt. Gleichzeitig ist das Montageelement 4 jedoch formmäßig so gestaltet, daß es nahezu in der Mitte einen Schlitz 25 aufweist, der innerhalb einer Kabeldurchführung 24, in Form einer Bohrung, endet. Dadurch, daß beim Anziehen der Schraube in dem Schraubkanal 9 die beiden Schenkel, die durch den Schlitz 25 an dem Montageelement 4 gebildet werden, zusammengedrückt werden, wird gleichzeitig eine Kabelzugentlastung, für das durch die Kabeldurchführung 24 hindurchgehgende Kabel sichergestellt. Seitlich an dem Montageelement 4 befinden sich vorstehende Rastungen 22, die wiederum mit entsprechend gegengeformten Stegen bzw. Rastungen, die in dem Ausführungsbeispiel nicht dargestellt sind, die innerhalb der Endkappe 2 sich befinden, zusammenwirkt.The second mounting element 4 is designed differently and takes over it in addition to the locking with the end cap 2, another function. This mounting element 4 is within a mounting hole 23 of the screw channel 9 by means of a screw element on the housing 5 screwed. At the same time, the mounting element 4 is designed so that it has a slot 25 almost in the middle, the inside of a cable bushing 24, in the form of a hole, ends. Characterized in that when tightening the screw in the screw channel 9th the two legs through the slot 25 on the mounting element 4th formed, pressed together, at the same time a cable strain relief, for that passing through the cable bushing 24 Cable ensured. Are located on the side of the mounting element 4 protruding notches 22, which in turn are counter-shaped accordingly Ridges or notches that are not in the exemplary embodiment are shown, which are located within the end cap 2, cooperates.

Soll nun die Endkappe 2, nachdem die Sensorleiste montiert ist, über das Montageelement 3 und die Befestigung des Montageelementes 4 aufgeclipst werden, so ist dieses ohne Zuhilfenahme von Werkzeugen möglich. Zum einen rastet innerhalb der Querschnittsverjüngung 20 und andererseits an den Rastungen 22 die Endkappe 2 ein. Um einen weiteren verrutschungssicheren Halt zu gewährleisten, sind darüber hinaus Vorsprünge 13, 14 an der Endkappe 2 vorhanden, die durch einen Rücksprung 15 unterbrochen sind. Diese Vorsprünge 13, 14 sind formmäßig so ausgebildet, daß eine genaue Anpassung an die Kontur des Gehäuses 5 gegeben ist. Damit die Endkappe 2 auch dem, wie in dem Ausführungsbeispiel dargestellten, formgeberischen Erscheinungsbild angepaßt werden kann, ist eine Seitenwand 11 leicht ballig ausgeführt, wobei diese durch Schattenfugen 16 unterbrochen wird. Darüber hinaus verlaufen die seitlichen Wände 1 in der gleichen Kontur des Profils 5.Now if the end cap 2, after the sensor bar is mounted, over the Mounting element 3 and the fastening of the mounting element 4 clipped on this is possible without the use of tools. On the one hand it snaps within the cross-sectional taper 20 and on the other hand the end cap 2 at the detents 22. Another one To ensure a slip-proof hold are also protrusions 13, 14 present on the end cap 2 by a recess 15 are interrupted. These projections 13, 14 are so in shape trained that a precise adaptation to the contour of the housing 5th given is. So that the end cap 2 also as in the embodiment shown, formal appearance can be adapted can, a side wall 11 is slightly convex, this is interrupted by shadow gaps 16. In addition, the side walls 1 in the same contour of the profile 5.

Durch den erfindungsgemäßen Gegenstand ist eine einfache, kostengünstige und sichere Befestigung beispielsweise von Profilen sichergestellt und darüber hinaus eine ohne Werkzeuge zu bewerkstelligende Montage von Endkappen gewährleistet. The subject matter of the invention makes it simple, inexpensive and secure attachment of profiles, for example and also one that can be done without tools Installation of end caps guaranteed.
