Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a return mechanism for a pusher for actuating a door lock.
  • a return spring is provided in the lock case of a door lock, which serves to return the pusher after it has been pressed down from its horizontal position for actuating the door lock in its horizontally aligned initial position.
  • the return spring located in the lock case often fatigues over time, resulting in the handle being unable to fully retract to the horizontal position.
  • pushers and rosette are either not separable from each other in known handle sets or it is only a release the pusher of the rosette only possible with a special tool, the purchase of which is not profitable for the average consumer. For these reasons, it is often necessary disadvantageously, instead of the pusher renew the complete handle set.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a located in the rosette of a handle set return mechanism for a door handle, which is independent of the dimensions of a square pin.
  • the return mechanism has a coupling with a door handle driver ring, which is rotatably received by a attachable to a door leaf rosette body.
  • the driving ring has at its periphery on at least one sliding ramp, which cooperates with a spring-loaded sliding body such that it is biased upon rotation of the driving ring from a rest position to a deflected working position in which the slider exerts a rotation of the counteracting force on the driving ring ,
  • the ring in question is a "dog" ring, as it is specially designed to be coupled to a pusher - not a square pin - so that a pusher coupled to the dog ring, after having he has caused the rotation of the driver ring due to its operation, due to the interaction of the spring-loaded slider and the driving ring of this is moved back into its horizontal starting position.
  • the ring in question is therefore due to its interaction with the slider and the possible coupling with a pusher suitable to move such a pusher from its operating position back to its horizontal starting position.
  • the driving ring when it is rotated back as a result of the force exerted by the slider on the sliding ramp force, with a ring-coupled pusher with what the chosen terminology "driver" ring justified.
  • the driving ring thus effectively serves as a coupling between the return mechanism and a suitable for actuating a door lock pusher, said coupling can be made detachable. This solvability ensures that, for example, in a defective handle not the entire handle set of rosette and door handle but only the pusher must be replaced.
  • connection to the square pin of the door lock is made exclusively on the pusher - and not about the return mechanism - so that the return mechanism of the dimensions of the square pin of the door lock is completely independent.
  • the reset mechanism according to the invention comprehensive rosette can be used with different square pins, so that no different, matched to different square pins rosettes must be kept.
  • the function of the return mechanism itself is based on the interaction between the spring-loaded sliding body and the trained on the circumference of the driving ring slide ramp.
  • the sliding ramp can be a jacket section on the outer circumference of the driver ring, which extends over the longitudinal extent of the slide ramp Viewed circumferential direction of the driver ring has a depending on the viewing direction steadily decreasing or increasing distance to the center of the driver ring.
  • the sliding ramp is a circumferential section of the driving ring, which continuously approaches the center of the driving ring in the circumferential direction or which steadily moves away from the center of the driving ring in the circumferential direction.
  • This biasing force is in turn transmitted via the slider on the sliding ramp, whereby to a certain extent an output force is exerted on the slip ramp, which counteracts the previous rotation due to the operation of the pusher.
  • the driving ring is transferred including a coupled with the driving ring pusher back to the starting position, in which the slider again assumes the position in which it has the smallest distance to the center of the driving ring in the sliding ramp.
  • the driving ring can be made possible with a door handle by a trained on the driving ring plug engagement means, via which the driving ring is coupled torsionally rigid with a door handle.
  • the door handle can have on its handle neck a plug engagement means which is complementary to the plug engagement means in order to be able to produce a positive and rotational connection with the plug engagement means of the drive ring.
  • the plug-in engagement means of the driving ring can be arranged on the inner circumference, whereas the complementary plug engagement means of the presser neck are located on the outer circumference thereof.
  • the respective male engagement means engage positively with each other. Due to the arrangement of the respective plug engagement means on the inner circumference drive ring or on the outer circumference of the pusher neck thus the height of the return mechanism and thus the height of the rosette body can be kept low.
  • the male engagement means of the driver ring and the complementary thereto formed on the pusher neck of the pusher plug engagement means may be formed such that the pusher can be selectively coupled in two offset by 180 ° positions with the driver ring.
  • This embodiment proves to be advantageous in that one and the same pusher can be used on both right- and left-handed doors, so that regardless of the size of the square pin and regardless of which side of the door is hinged, only a single pusher type must be kept.
  • the driving ring can have on its circumference at least one steadily widening, symmetrical indentation, the contour surfaces of which are formed by two oppositely directed sliding ramps on the circumference of the driving ring.
  • this embodiment proves to be when the driving ring has at its periphery a plurality of steadily widening, symmetrical indentations whose contour surfaces are formed by two oppositely aligned slide ramps on the circumference of the driving ring, wherein the individual indentations at regular angular intervals, preferably are arranged at angular intervals of 180 °, 120 ° or 90 ° to each other.
  • the driver ring and thus a pusher which can be coupled to the driver ring can be reliably returned to its starting position even if the sliding bodies should be slightly worn out.
  • the indentations at regular angular intervals such as below 180 ° at two indentations, below 120 ° at three indentations or below 90 ° at four indentations to each other, proves to be advantageous in that thereby any eccentricities or unbalanced power distributions are avoided, which could otherwise lead to an undesirable misalignment of the driving ring. Due to the uniform arrangement of the indentations on the driving ring this is rather uniformly applied by the associated sliding body with the desired restoring forces, which are due to the uniform arrangement of the indentations on the circumference of the driving ring in balance with each other, so that an offset of the driving ring can be largely excluded.
  • the sliding ramps of adjacent indentations to be connected to one another via said sliding surfaces is also advantageous because, as a rule, when the sliding bodies slide on the sliding surfaces, it is no longer necessary to apply an additional restoring force to the driving ring via the return mechanism according to the invention. Namely, if the drive ring has been rotated so far that the sliding slide on the sliding surfaces, namely the return spring located in the lock case will be effective even if they should already show signs of fatigue. In the area of the sliding surfaces thus only the return spring located in the lock case is effective, whereby an undesirable stiffness of the pusher can be counteracted, which could be adjusted by a simultaneous effect of the springs of the slider. In other words, therefore, the return mechanism according to the invention tends to be more effective in that area in which any risk of fatigue of the return spring located in the lock case the pusher does not fully return to its home horizontal position.
  • the sliding ramps of a recess concave preferably with a radius of curvature of 1 mm, mutually merge into one another, wherein the slide ramps themselves are generally convex, preferably with a radius of curvature of 6 mm.
  • a convex curvature of a sliding ramp of a recess is followed by a concavely curved transition region followed by a turn convex curvature of the other sliding ramp of the indentation.
  • the Gleitrampen could also have a flat surface, but can be achieved by the convex shape that during the initial handle operation, the force increase of the sliding bodies or their springs outgoing restoring force is relatively large, whereas this increase in force on further actuation of the pusher fails .
  • the reset mechanism according to the invention is thus primarily active upon initial actuation of the pusher, whereas its influence becomes less with increasing actuation of the pusher as a result of the then increasing influence of the then restoring force of the return spring located in the lock case ,
  • the restoring forces of the return mechanism according to the invention are thus not simply superimposed on the restoring forces of the spring located in the lock case; Rather, the action of the resetting mechanism according to the invention at least partially replaces the action the return spring located in the lock case, if it should no longer be effective due to signs of fatigue in certain areas.
  • the sliding body slides on a rotation of the driving ring along the sliding ramps formed on the circumference thereof.
  • appropriate precautions must be taken to minimize unwanted wear caused by the friction between the slide ramp and the slider.
  • the slider has a sliding surface which has a shape complementary to the indentations.
  • the sliding body thus has a convex tip corresponding to the concave transition of the two sliding ramps of a recess, to which two concave sliding surface sections adjoin on both sides. Due to the convex design of the slide ramps and the likewise convex design of the tip of Gleit stressesgleit Structure can thus be achieved that the slider only occurs along a line or along a line with the sliding ramp in contact, whereby unwanted friction phenomena can be kept low.
  • the complementary to the booking form of the slider also proves to be advantageous in that a rich and planar engagement of the slider can be achieved in the booking when the slider are in its rest position, which corresponds to the horizontal starting position of the door handle.
  • the driving ring can be made a metal, preferably of chromium-plated die-cast zinc, and the sliding body made of a plastic material such as polyoxymethylene (POM), which is preferably enriched with Teflon or chalk.
  • POM polyoxymethylene
  • the return mechanism further comprises on the door leaf side facing the driving ring a spring ring, which engages in a formed on the front end of the pusher neck annular groove.
  • the pusher neck can taper conically in the direction of its front end, so that the conically tapered end of the pusher neck must be inserted only in the spring ring for mounting the pusher, causing it to spread and ultimately formed in the front end of the pusher neck Ring groove snaps.
  • the rosette body may be covered on the side facing away from the door leaf by a cap made of metal, which in turn may be covered for artistic reasons with a plastic cover.
  • the Fig. 1 shows an exploded view of a handle set, in which case only the pusher neck 16 of a pusher is recognizable.
  • the handle set further comprises an oval rosette body 14, which may be a substantially solid component of polyoxymethylene (POM).
  • POM polyoxymethylene
  • the rosette body 14 is covered by a cap 18 made of metal for purposes of fire protection, which only has an opening 36 for the pusher neck 16 and two openings 44 for fastening screws 30.
  • the cap 18 is again covered by a Kunststoffabdeckkappe 18, which also has an opening 38 for the pusher neck 16, which is aligned with the opening formed in the cap 18 opening 36.
  • the rosette body 14 has a with the openings 36, 38 of the cap 18 and the cover 20 aligned opening 34 into which on the side facing the pusher neck 16 two opposing crescent-shaped flanges 32 project, which are integrally formed with the rosette body 14.
  • the return mechanism 10 further comprises two force-loaded by return springs 26 sliding body 24, which are preferably made of polyoxymethylene (POM), which is enriched with Teflon or chalk.
  • the return mechanism includes in the Fig. 1 characterized by the reference numeral 22 driver ring made of metal, preferably made of chromium-plated die-cast zinc, which is rotatably received on the back of the rosette body 14 in the aperture 34 adjacent to the sickle-like flanges 32.
  • a clamping or spring ring 28 is further arranged on the side facing the door leaf of the driver ring 22, which engages in the assembled state of the handle set in a formed on the front end of the pusher neck 16 annular groove 50.
  • the pusher neck 16 has a conically tapered front end, so that during assembly of the pusher neck 16 only through the openings 38, 36 and through the opening 34 and the driver ring 22 and the spring ring 28 must be inserted through, so that the Spring ring 16 aufumble on the conical front end of the pusher neck 16 and is spread apart until it finally engages in the annular groove 50 of the pusher neck 16.
  • the driver ring 22 on its inner circumference two inwardly projecting, diametrically opposed engagement lugs 48 (of which only one is recognizable due to the perspective view), which is formed with complementary thereto formed slot 46 at the front end of the pusher neck 16 due to can be engaged described plug movement.
  • the pusher neck 16 or the pusher integrally formed on the pusher neck 16 is rotationally rigidly coupled to the driver ring 22.
  • the clamping ring 22 thus serves as a coupling between the return mechanism 10 and the pusher neck 16 and the associated with the pusher neck 16 pushers.
  • Fig. 3 can be removed, two steadily widening symmetrical indentations 66 are formed on the circumference of the driver ring 22 at two opposite points, the contour surfaces are formed by two oppositely aligned slide ramps 62 on the circumference of the driver ring 22.
  • the slide ramps 62 of each of the recesses 66 are concave with each other with a radius of curvature of about 1 mm into each other, wherein the slide ramps 62 in turn are not concave but convexly formed with a radius of curvature of preferably 6 mm.
  • two sliding surfaces 64 are formed on the outer circumference of the driving ring 22, which connect the mutually adjacent slide ramps 62 of the two recesses 66 with each other.
  • the return springs 26 are based on the rear boundary of the guide channels 52, whereby the sliding body 24 in the direction of the center of the driving ring 22 to be biased.
  • the sliding bodies 24 each have a sliding surface which has a shape complementary to the indentations 66.
  • the driving ring 22 also on the side facing the door leaf on an annular flange 40 which projects in the radial direction over the slide ramps 62 and the sliding surfaces.
  • the sliding body 24 Due to the steadily widening symmetrical shape of the indentations 66, a reliable self-centering of the sliding bodies 24 can be ensured even if their convex tips should be slightly worn due to friction. In this case, the sliding body 24 are always so far pushed into the indentations 66 of the return springs 26 due to the symmetrical shape of the recesses 66 until the slider 24 abut at corresponding points of the indentations 66 defining slip ramps 62.
  • the inventive reset mechanism 10 also allows, in which case the sliding body 24 then slide on the sliding surfaces 64.
  • the return mechanism 10 according to the invention no longer achieve restoring effect, but this will usually not be necessary because in this case the return springs located in the lock case are effective in this area even if they show some signs of fatigue.
  • the driving ring 22 is made of a metal material, preferably made of chromed die-cast zinc, whereas the sliding body 24 are made of a plastic material and preferably made of enriched with Teflon or chalk polyoxymethylene.
  • the combination of these two materials, the friction between the sliders 24 and the driver ring 22 can be kept low, which also contributes to the fact that the slider 24 are not or only slightly worn over hundreds of thousands of operating cycles.
