Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a modular drive device for the electromotive opening and closing and/or electromotive locking and unlocking of a window, a door or the like.
  • the door can also be a French window.
  • the modular drive device can be suitable for windows or doors of all kinds, whether with a window pane or opaque, especially if they have a wing that is movably mounted on a frame and is adjustable by means of a fitting system, so that the modular drive device can be used for electromotive adjustment of the fitting system. For example, this can also be a simple flap.
  • a window or door usually has a frame mounted in a wall and a sash that is movably mounted on the frame by means of a fitting system.
  • the sash can be moved from a closed position, in which it rests on the frame in particular with a sash frame, into an open position and back, whereby various open positions can be possible and various types of movement can be enabled by the fitting system.
  • the sash can, for example, be pivotally opened about a vertical axis of rotation, tilt-opened or folded about a horizontal tilt axis, or be parked in parallel and then possibly moved parallel.
  • other types of movement and combinations e.g. window that can be pivoted and tilted open
  • superimpositions of the aforementioned types of movement are possible.
  • the fitting system is also typically adjustable, in particular between a locking state in which the fitting system preferably locks the sash in its closed position so that the sash cannot be moved into a another position, and an unlocking state in which the sash can be moved between different positions.
  • the fitting system can, for example, have locking pins that are arranged on a drive rod that is provided in the rebate between the sash frame and the frame and that can be moved on the sash frame and, depending on the sliding position of the drive rod, engage in a respective locking part provided on the frame.
  • the drive rod is usually operated using a window handle provided on the sash, the rotation of which is diverted to a displacement of the drive rod via a gear in the fitting system.
  • a drive device in particular an electric motor, on the window or door.
  • a drive device can be arranged on the frame, for example, and have a pressure-resistant chain that can be extended and retracted and is connected to the sash, so that the sash can be opened or closed via the chain.
  • the force of gravity acting on the sash can also be used to hold the sash in a particular position relative to the frame, depending on how far the chain is extended.
  • the drive device can also work directly with an adjustable fitting system, so that the window or door can be opened, closed, locked and/or unlocked by adjusting it electromotively.
  • Drive devices for the electric motor opening and closing and/or electric motor locking and unlocking of a window, door or the like are generally not provided on the window or door from the outset or integrated into it, but are typically subsequently attached.
  • there is the option of attaching the drive device to the window or door by placing it on the outside of the frame or sash, in particular on the sash frame, and also by installing it completely concealed within the frame or sash, in particular the sash frame.
  • the window or door is generally not specifically prepared for the attachment of a drive device, so that concealed installation of the drive device generally means a major intervention in the structure of the frame or sash frame.
  • the CN 105 822 172 A discloses a concealed window drive device which, among other things, has an actuating unit and a drive module.
  • the window opener is installed within a single profile chamber of the window frame, wherein the profile chamber is divided into an upper and a lower region by a provided separating device, such as a non-continuous partition wall.
  • the drive device is installed in the upper region of one profile chamber and the actuating unit is installed in the lower region.
  • a concealed installation of the drive device has the particular disadvantage that a receptacle for the drive device must be provided in the frame or the sash frame, which is formed in particular by milling out the respective frame and, due to the typical dimensions of the drive device, typically extends into the so-called isothermal area relevant for thermal insulation in the middle between the outside and the inside of the respective frame. This impairs the thermal insulation function of the window or door.
  • a central seal which is provided in particular for higher-quality windows or doors and supports the thermal separation, which in addition to the usual outer and inner seals in the
  • the recess in the middle of the rebate area between the sash frame and the frame in order to prevent air from passing through when the sash is closed may have to be completely or at least partially removed from the mount if a drive device is to be retrofitted to such a window or door.
  • milling out the holder can lead to a significant weakening of the profile statics of the frame or sash because, for example, especially with aluminum profiles, the connection between the plastic webs for the thermal separation and the inner and outer profile shells is interrupted.
  • the profile statics of the respective frame can be unduly impaired by milling out the holders required for this. Even if, for example, chain drives with long chain lengths are to be mounted completely concealed for a particularly large adjustment path, particularly large holders must be provided for this, which can intervene in the thermal insulation and stability of the respective frame.
  • a further difficulty in installing electromotive drive devices on windows or doors arises from the fact that different windows or doors can be designed differently with regard to their profile contours, groove positions, dimensions of the profile grooves, air spaces in the rebate area and the structure and dimensions of any central seals provided, so that different drive devices usually have to be provided for different windows or doors.
  • drive devices for the electromotive opening and closing and/or electromotive locking and unlocking of a window or door are usually manufactured and sold as a single, closed unit in which a motor, a gear and electronics for controlling the motor as well as one or more actuators (e.g. a chain) for transmitting a drive torque of the motor to the sash or other parts of the window or door are integrated and enclosed in a common housing.
  • actuators e.g. a chain
  • Designing the drive device as a closed unit also has the further disadvantage that in the event of a defect, individual components cannot simply be replaced, but usually the entire drive device must be repaired or replaced.
  • the object is achieved by a modular drive device having the features of claim 1, by a method for assembling the modular drive device having the features of claim 8 and by a window or a door having the modular drive device having the features of claim 10.
  • An essential feature of the drive device is that it is modular, i.e. that it comprises several units that are basically designed separately from one another, in particular are clearly separated from one another spatially, e.g. have separate housings, and can be mounted or dismantled individually, i.e. one after the other, on the respective window or door. A certain sequence can be specified, so that a certain unit must be mounted first before another unit can be mounted.
  • the modular design avoids the need to assemble or dismantle all units together as a single, closed unit.
  • the modular drive device comprises at least: an actuating unit which comprises an actuator and an actuator housing in which the actuator is mounted, and which is designed to receive a drive torque and to derive it via the actuator for opening or closing and/or locking or unlocking the window or door; and a transmission unit which comprises a motor, a transmission and a transmission housing in which the motor and the transmission are accommodated, in particular encapsulated, wherein an output element is provided on the transmission which is designed to be coupled to the actuating unit in a driving manner in order to transmit a drive torque of the motor to the actuating unit via the transmission.
  • the gear unit and the actuating unit are advantageously designed separately from one another and each have their own housing.
  • the gear unit is designed to be installed independently of the actuating unit, preferably from the rebate of the window or door, in an edge-side, inside profile chamber a frame of the window or door, whereas the adjusting unit is designed to be arranged and fastened outside this profile chamber, in the rebate between the frame and the sash of the window or door, so that both the gear unit and the adjusting unit are arranged completely concealed, at least when the sash is closed.
  • the motor and the gear as well as the area for supporting a chain acting as an actuator are not arranged directly adjacent to one another, so that together they form a continuous elongated structure that is arranged parallel to the course of the fold.
  • the motor and the gear are arranged as a gear unit with its own gear housing separately from the actuator provided in a separate actuator unit with its own actuator housing, wherein the gear unit and the actuator unit can be arranged at different locations and are preferably designed to be layered rather than arranged along a common longitudinal axis.
  • the profile chamber mentioned is already present within the respective frame as a cavity in the profile structure of the frame.
  • a profile chamber generally has no access from the outside, so that under certain circumstances a passage into the profile chamber, in particular from the rebate, still has to be formed, in particular milled out.
  • the profile chamber mentioned is on the edge in that it is preferably directly on an inner side (typically facing an interior) or an outer side (typically facing away from the interior) of the frame. or the sash frame in relation to the installation position of the window or door.
  • the profile chamber can be arranged on the inside of the frame or the outside of the sash frame, whereby it is preferably arranged on the inside of the frame, against which the sash usually rests when closed.
  • the profile chamber can be arranged between the respective edge side of the respective frame and an isothermal area and/or a central seal of the respective frame, so that the isothermal area and/or the central seal are just as little affected by the fastening of the gear unit in the profile chamber as by the fastening of the actuating unit in the rebate.

  • the gear unit and the actuating unit are designed to be coupled to one another in a driving manner across the border of the profile chamber despite the arrangement of the gear unit in the profile chamber and the arrangement of the actuating unit outside the profile chamber, so that the actuator of the actuating unit can be driven by the motor of the gear unit.
  • the attachment of the gear unit and/or the actuating unit to the respective frame can be carried out, for example, by means of screws, sliding blocks or other lever or clamping mechanisms that create at least a force-fitting connection and can be used in particular without tools or with only simple tools, such as a screwdriver.

  • the gearbox housing surrounds the motor and the gearbox at least almost completely, wherein the gearbox housing can have openings, in particular at least one opening through which the output element extends or through which the output element is at least accessible, so that a drive torque can be transmitted from the motor to the actuator outside the gearbox unit.
  • the accommodation, in particular encapsulation, of the motor and the gearbox in the gearbox housing not only protects the motor and the gearbox from contamination, but also supports the modular design of the drive device.
  • the gearbox unit can thus be attached to the window or door, preferably via the gearbox housing, independently of other units of the drive device and in particular without accessories such as special mounting fittings.
  • the gear unit can be arranged and secured in the profile chamber independently of the actuating unit and, if applicable, of an electronic unit provided for controlling the motor, in particular in that the gear unit can be arranged and secured in the profile chamber without the actuating unit and/or, if applicable, the electronic unit also being arranged at the same time.

  • the actuating unit is designed as a chain unit which comprises a chain as an actuator for transmitting a pulling and/or pushing movement from the modular drive device to the sash of the window or door, a chain housing in which the chain is mounted as an actuator housing, and a sprocket that interacts with the chain.
  • the chain housing serves in particular to accommodate the chain almost completely, at least in a maximally retracted state.

  • Both the frame 13, which is designed for stationary fastening in a wall, and the sash frame 15, which has a pane holder 17 for supporting a window pane and is movably mounted on the frame 13, are designed as profile structures which, with the cross section shown, extend in a longitudinal direction which in Fig.1 is aligned perpendicular to the plane of the representation.
  • the frame 13 and the sash frame 15 are made of aluminum in particular.
  • the profile is formed by two profile shells made of aluminum, which are connected in the middle of the profile by plastic webs.
  • the area between the frame 13 and the sash 15 (in its closed position, which is shown in the figures) forms the so-called rebate 19, which is parallel to the profiles of the frame 13 and the sash 15 perpendicular to the plane of the Fig.1 runs.
  • seals are provided between the frame 13 and the sash frame 15, whereby an outer seal and an inner seal can be arranged on an outer seal receptacle 21 or an inner seal receptacle 23.
  • these seals are not shown in the figures.
  • a middle seal 25 is provided, which makes a significant contribution to the reliable sealing of the window or French window.
  • the middle area mentioned also represents an isothermal area of the window or French window, which, in particular due to its material and structure, is specially designed to reduce heat transfer between the outside and the inside of the window or French window.
  • the profiles of the frame 13 and the sash frame 15 have numerous cavities. Some of these cavities form profile chambers.
  • the frame 13 has an inner profile chamber 27, which is arranged between the isothermal area and the inside of the window or French window.
  • the inner profile chamber 27 borders directly on the inside of the frame 13 and directly on the rebate in the direction of the sash.
  • the inner profile chamber 27 is connected to the rebate 19 via a passage 29, which is formed in particular by milling.
  • the modular drive device 11 comprises a gear unit 31 with an electric motor and a gear, which are encapsulated in a gear housing 33 and therefore cannot be seen from the outside, with the exception of an output element 35 of the gear.
  • the gear housing 33 has an elongated shape, so that it has at least essentially the greatest extension in the direction of a longitudinal axis of its shape.
  • the output element 35 is designed as an output shaft and extends out of the gear housing 33, in particular perpendicular to the longitudinal axis mentioned.
  • the gear unit 31 is arranged in the inner profile chamber 27 and fastened there.
  • the gear unit 31 is arranged such that the longitudinal axis of the gear housing 33 is parallel to the course of the fold 19, i.e. perpendicular to the plane of the illustration of the Fig.1 , is aligned.
  • the output element 35 extends through the passage 29 out of the profile chamber 27.
  • the modular drive device 11 further comprises an actuating unit 37, which is designed as a chain unit and comprises a pressure-resistant chain as an actuating element.
  • the chain and a sprocket that interacts with the chain are arranged in an actuating element housing 39 that forms a chain housing, so that they are not or only partially visible from the outside.
  • the sprocket is designed as a pinion and engages in the chain in such a way that the chain can be extended and retracted from the actuating element housing 39 by turning the sprocket.
  • One end 41 of the chain that protrudes from the actuating element housing 39 is designed to be connected to the sash frame 15, for example a connecting element attached to the sash frame 15, so that the position of the sash can be changed by extending or retracting the chain.
  • the adjusting unit 37 is arranged in the rebate 19 between the frame 13 and the sash frame 15 and is attached to the frame 13.
  • the adjusting unit 37 is located near the passage 29 to the inside profile chamber 27, but is arranged completely outside the profile chamber.
  • the actuating unit 37 is at least substantially directly adjacent to the passage 29.
  • the chain wheel of the actuating unit 37 is coupled to the output element 35 of the gear unit 31 for joint rotation, namely in the present embodiment in that the chain wheel was placed on the output element 35 with the chain wheel when the actuating unit 37 was arranged in the fold 19.
  • the actuating unit 37 is also fastened via the actuator housing 39 to the frame 13, in particular in or on a groove or profile rail 43 of the frame 13, which runs along the fold 19 and preferably borders on the inside profile chamber 27, for example by means of sliding blocks or the like.
  • the modular drive device 11 further comprises an electronic unit 45 (cf. Fig. 2 ) for controlling the motor of the gear unit 31, which is detachably attached to the gear unit 31, thereby establishing both a mechanical and an electrical connection between the electronic unit 45 and the gear unit 31.
  • the electronic unit 45 is only indirectly attached to the frame 13 via the gear unit 31 and can be easily replaced independently of the gear unit 31.
  • the modular drive device 11 can thus fulfil its drive function, but has the advantage over a non-modular drive device that the individual units 31, 37, 45 can advantageously be distributed in the installation space that is already available, in particular without the area of thermal separation and the central seal 25 can be impaired by the drive device 11. Since the individual units 31, 37, 45 can each be designed to be comparatively compact, the modular drive device 11 can be suitable for concealed installation on a wide variety of profiles without significant interventions in the statics or thermal insulation of the respective window or French window being necessary.
