  • Publication number: 20220154521
    Abstract: A slide-and-swing wing system includes at least one rail profile. At least two wings, each displaceably mounted in the at least one rail profile via two support elements The at least one rail profile has a lateral outlet opening for unlatching a support element of a wing. One wing functions as a door leaf which, with all other wings in the latched state, is pivotable into the remaining opening. A closure mechanism makes it possible to prevent the door leaf from being opened and includes a drive, and also an operating part, via which the drive can be actuated. The door leaf is displaceable, via the drive, in the rail profile in the direction of the adjacent wing to such an extent that no support element of the door leaf is aligned with the outlet opening, thereby preventing a support element from coming out through the lateral outlet opening.

  • Publication number: 20140130417
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sliding and swinging door system, comprising a rail profile in which at least two door leaves are mounted so as to be displaceable by way of two support elements, and which profile is provided with an expanding clamp for receiving a locking element disposed on a door leaf, in each instance, wherein at least one lateral outlet opening for release of a support element of a door leaf is disposed in the rail profile, at a distance from the expanding clamp, wherein at least one support part (6) is disposed on the rail profile (1), which part interacts with a pressure part (7) disposed on a door leaf (3), in each instance, in such a manner that when a support element (4) of a door leaf (3) is released, lateral tilting of the door leaf (3) is prevented, as long as the locking element (5) has not reached its stop point in the expanding clamp (2).
