Abstract
An improved airtight closing sliding door with contact pressure and integrated one-hand operation which lowers itself in its closed position and thereby hermetically seals the door frame as well as the door sill by way of continuously effective contact pressure whose door leaf is suspended from the cam plate of a carrying shaft, and which is lowered from horizontally to vertically downwards position by turning the carrying shaft.
Claims5
An airtight closing sliding door having automatic sealing contact pressure and integrated one-hand operation and having a pair of suspension runners and a door leaf suspended from said pair of runners, each runner having a cam shaft and a cam plate and a carrying shaft on which said cam plate is rigidly mounted and which is turned about 90 degrees from an open position in which the cam plate is positioned horizontally downwards to a closed position in which the cam plate is positioned vertically by turning the carrying shaft, comprising
- a carrying shaft which is rigidly connected to
- a first cam plate which is pivotally connected to
- a camshaft which is rigidly connected to a second cam plate;
- holding up compression and holding down contact springs with a compression force of 2/3 to 3/4 of the door leaf weight respectively pivotally connected to said first and second cam plates
- said door leaf is pivotally connected to said first cam plate via
- a suspension hinge of an adjustable suspension stirrup
- a first connecting rod pivotally connected to said first and second cam plates,
- the distance between the axis of said cam shaft and the pivot connection of said first connecting rod on said second cam plate is about 1.5 to 2.00 times the distance between the axis of said carrying shaft and the pivot connection of said first connecting rod on said first cam plate, whereby, the axis of the suspension hinge of said door leaf is situated vertically under the axis of the carrying shaft when the door is in a closed position, and the suspension hinge is displaced by 90 degrees when in an open position, whereas the second cam plate is displaced by 45.degree. away from the door leaf when it is in an open position,
- a rocker arm is pivotally mounted on one of said pair of suspension runners
- the load arm of the rocker arm is pivotally connected with the second cam plate;
- and
- a lifting mechanism operatively connected to said rocker arm, and on whose power arm is arranged
- a roller running on a guide rail.
