Definitions

• the invention relates to a wall or door element - element - with (lower) rollers that can be moved on the bottom-side, designed as a hollow body rails with a longitudinal slot, the rollers each being mounted on an adjustable roller carrier and this is connected to the element ,
• Such wall or door elements are also referred to as sliding walls or sliding doors. They usually consist of an all-round support frame with hollow profiles, mainly made of aluminum. Casters are attached to the elements at the top and bottom. The lower rollers enter a slot in a bottom rail and can thus be moved along the rail while ensuring lateral guidance.
• a frame is usually connected to the frame, consisting of plate elements.
• the height can be adjusted to adapt the wall or door element to local building specifications. Since the rollers must always be in contact with the bottom rails, the element can be raised and lowered relative to the rollers.
• the roller carrier is adjustable, which is preferably designed as a pivotable lever. In the case of elements which are closed on both sides, the roller carrier is actuated from a narrow side of the element, namely pivoted in one direction or the other in order to adjust the height of the element.
• the invention has for its object to improve wall or door elements of the type described in terms of functionality, in particular to secure the support of the rollers on the bottom rails.
• the wall or door element according to the invention or the (bottom) roller support is characterized by the following features: a) In the area of at least one roller, a securing element is attached, which enters the running rail with anchoring ends and secures the element against lifting off,
• the securing member is mounted on an axis of rotation of the roller.
• the wall or door element according to the invention is secured against lifting off by the securing element as a result of being anchored in the hollow running rail.
• the securing element is preferably designed as a rocker arm, which is pivotally mounted on the axis of rotation of the roller and enters the running rail in a form-fitting manner with anchoring ends.
• the anchoring ends are designed as hook-shaped elements with thickening or hooking pieces at the ends in the running rail.
• the roller carrier can be designed as a connecting member between the roller and the element as an organ which can be tilted in the vertical plane and which is actuated via a narrow side of the closed element with a suitable tool.
• the security element is constructed in a simple manner and consists in particular of plastic. By mounting the securing element on the axis of rotation of the roller, the roller unit can be easily manufactured and assembled in the usual way.
• FIG. 1 shows a lower part of a wall or door element in a side view
• FIG. 2 shows a detail II of FIG. 1 on an enlarged scale
• FIG. 3 shows a roller unit with a running rail in a perspective view on a further enlarged scale
• 4 shows the roller unit according to FIG. 3 in a side view
• Fig. 6 shows the roller unit with a vertical partial section and front view in the lower area.
• a lower portion of a wall or door element is shown, which has a frame 10 running around.
• Cover plates 11 are attached to both sides of the frame 10, so that the wall or door element is closed on both sides.
• the wall or door element can be moved with lower rollers 12 on a running rail 13 attached to the floor.
• Two rollers 12 are attached to the ends of a lower cross member 14 of the frame 10.
• the running rails 13 fixed on or in the floor are designed as a hollow profile, namely with a lower flange 15 and two angular supporting profiles 16, which form the actual running rail.
• the support profiles 16 have mutually facing running legs 17.
• a central guide slot 18 is formed between these.
• the rollers 12 are profiled in accordance with the shape and dimensions of the running rail 13.
• a central, all-round guide ring 19 fits into the guide slot 18 of the running rail 13 and thus causes lateral guidance of the running rollers 12 and thus of the wall or door element.
• Circular support surfaces formed on both sides of the guide ring 19 lie on the running legs 17 on both sides of the guide slot 18 and roll on the latter.
• the rollers are designed in a special way with regard to the design of these support surfaces 20 or shoulders, namely with an outward slope of the order of (approximately) 5 °. This slightly inclined configuration of the support surfaces 20 results in an improved running property of the rollers 20, in particular in such a way that unevenness in the running rails 13 is compensated for.
• Each roller 12 is connected to the element or to the frame 10 via an adjustable holder.
• This is a roller carrier 21 which, in the example shown, is designed as a U-shaped support piece, in particular from a correspondingly deformed sheet metal.
• the roller 12 is positioned between upright support legs 22.
• a transverse roller axis 23 connects the two support legs 22 to one another.
• the roller 12 is rotatably mounted on the roller shaft 23 with a ball bearing 24.
• a hub 25 extending between support legs 22 is attached to the roller axis 23.
• the ball bearing 24 runs on this.
• the roller 12 is off-center, namely connected to the roller carrier 21 in the area of a lower, edge-side corner. In the area of an opposite corner, the roller carrier 21 is connected to the element or to the cross member 14, specifically via an opening 26.
• the roller carrier 21 is adjustable, in the present case by pivoting movement about the roller axis 23.
• the roller 12 always remains in the Position under contact with the running rail 13.
• the door or. Wall element raised or lowered relative to the roller 12.
• An adjustment gear (not shown) is used to adjust the roller carrier 21 and can be actuated via a narrow side of the door or wall element, that is to say via an upright spar of the frame 10.
• the door or wall element is equipped with a permanent protection against undesired lifting of the roller 12 from the rail 13.
• Each roller unit 27 formed from the roller 12 and roller carrier 21 has an anchoring element or securing element 28. This is provided with anchoring or hooking elements which enter the running rail 13 in a form-fitting manner, but with some play, and prevent the running roller 12 from being lifted off by support on the running legs 17.
• the securing element 28 consists of a shaped piece, in particular of plastic, which consists of a lower web 29 and upright supporting walls 30.
• the securing member 28 (in a side view) has a triangular shape.
• the supporting walls 30 are connected in the center to the roller unit 27, specifically to the roller axis 23.
• the securing element 28 is therefore connected to the roller carrier 21 exclusively via the roller axis 23.
• the securing element 28 has two support walls 30 which are arranged at a distance from one another and are positioned between the support legs 22 of the roller carrier 21 and are mounted on the hub 25 with a corresponding opening.
• the 'hub 25 is formed for this purpose at their ends with a shoulder, the supporting walls are mounted on the hub 25 30 in. Its range.
• the roller 12 is therefore independent of the position of the locking member 28 is freely rotatable.
• the securing member 28 acts like a seesaw.
• the anchoring members are attached, which enter the running rail 13 with a thickening.
• two securing hooks 31, 32 are provided, which are positively anchored in the running rail 13 with hook-like projections 33.
• the projections 33 of the two securing hooks 31, 32 are directed on different sides.
• roller unit 27 with the securing element 28 ensures that the door or wall element can be moved up and down without influencing the position of the securing element 28.
