  • Publication number: 20160348362
    Abstract: A telescopic element for a displaceable partitioning wall, includes a solid wall section for partially covering an opening in a building structure, and a telescopic section for covering a manoeuvring gap between the solid wall section and the building structure, The telescopic element, further includes an adjusting mechanism for deploying the telescopic section into a covering position covering the manoeuvring gap and a deployment of sealing lips of the solid wall section for sealing against the building structure. The adjusting mechanism includes an input shaft for receiving an adjusting movement and a distribution gearbox for the divided transmission of the adjusting movement to an upper telescopic gearbox and to a lower telescopic gearbox for deploying of the telescopic section. The two telescopic gearboxes each include a transmitting section for the transmission of the adjusting movement to an upper sealing gearbox and to a lower sealing gearbox, respectively, for deploying the sealing lips.

  • Patent number: 8627621
    Abstract: A roller rail for a sliding wall, which includes several sliding wall elements, in which each sliding wall element is supported to be displaceable via in particular two carriages. The roller rail is connectable to a branching roller rail via a turnout which is switchable by the carriages. At least one carriage of a sliding wall element, for switching the turnout, takes up a position which is located outside the turnout.

  • Patent number: 8584317
    Abstract: A ceiling track system including a guiding rail, in which at least one wall element is received and an encasing element that is affixed to the guiding rail. A long leg extends in a vertical joining direction and has a latching geometry, into which a latching hook can be latched such that the encasing element is affixed to the guiding rail in a self-retaining manner. The long leg has a web with a projection. The guiding rail has a groove into which the projection engages for the purpose of self-retaining the encasing element. Adjacent to the groove the guiding rail has a screw reception into which a screw element is screwable by which a clamping action is achieved. The screw reception is at an angle with regard to the vertical joining direction.

  • Patent number: 8479447
    Abstract: A drive system for driving and for guiding a wall element, in particular for a room partitioning wall system, with a carriage unit, which is guided to be longitudinally movable in a guiding rail. The carriage unit has a roller carriage disposed within the guiding rail, and a drive unit disposed below the guiding rail. A guiding device is provided in the transition area between the roller carriage and the drive unit that cooperates with the guiding rail for guiding the carriage unit.

  • Patent number: 8033068
    Abstract: Mobile partitioning wall with several wall elements displaceably suspended in running rails. The mobile partitioning wall have structural units that are technically simple to manufacture and to mount and are structured to be universally usable and can be easily and variably disposed at the edge sides of individual wall elements. The wall elements have mounting elements that are horizontally and/or vertically disposed at the edge sides. Modular structural units are laterally insertable into the mounting elements.

  • Publication number: 20110078960
    Abstract: A partitioning wall with several wall elements which are movably accommodated via a guiding assembly. The wall elements have two transparent pane elements which are disposed parallel to and spaced apart from each other, and wherein the wall elements have a profile frame for accommodating the pane elements and furthermore for accommodating a sound insulation device therein in order to sound-proof the wall element at least at a floor and at a ceiling.
