Sliding door with a pivotable sealing strip

Abstract

A sill arrangement has a pivotable sealing strip for a sliding door with a leaf displaceable along a running rail and which can be moved in the horizontal direction perpendicular to the running rail to be positioned against or set away from a frame. When the leaf is open, the sealing strip is lowered and it terminates flush with a sill. When the leaf is pushed closed along the running rail, the sealing strip is at least partially raised. When the pushed-closed leaf is positioned against the frame, the sealing strip can be raised further. With the leaf bearing against the frame, the raised sealing strip provides sealing against a vertical front side of the leaf. The leaf is continuously peripherally sealed against the frame in the plane of the front side of the leaf, sealing being provided by the sealing strip and further sealing structures fixed to the frame.
