Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] Further measures that improve the disclosure will be outlined in greater detail below together with the description of a preferred exemplary embodiment of the disclosure on the basis of the figures, in which is shown:

[0030] FIG. 1 a view of a revolving door with a turnstile and the barrel element surrounding the turnstile, and with a top ceiling assembly,

[0031] FIG. 2-FIG. 4 the assembly of the ceiling assembly, represented in three steps,

[0032] FIG. 5 a cross-sectional view through the ceiling assembly,

[0033] FIG. 6 a view of the revolving door with isolated components, and

[0034] FIG. 7 a schematic representation of the process sequence for assembling such a ceiling assembly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0035] FIG. 1 shows in a perspective view a revolving door 100 with a turnstile 10 which is arranged between opposing barrel elements 11 and with a ceiling assembly which is arranged on top of the barrel elements 11 and on which the turnstile 10 is rotatably mounted. The ceiling assembly 12 has a sandwich design, which is explained in more detail with regard to its design and the steps for assembly with the following FIGS. 2, 3 and 4.

[0036] FIG. 2 shows an example of a bottom cover panel 13, which forms a circular disc and in this respect has a diameter which corresponds approximately to the diameter of the revolving door 100 or at least to the diameter on the inside of the barrel elements. A plurality of openings 18 are introduced into the bottom cover panel 13, into which openings functional elements such as loudspeakers, light devices, sensors, scenting devices and the like can later be inserted.

[0037] FIG. 3 shows the bottom cover panel 13 with the openings 18 and structural elements 16 which are applied to the cover panel 13 and which are, for example, designed like a framework and are located between the openings 18.

[0038] FIG. 4 shows the design of the bottom cover panel 13 with the openings 18 and the structural elements 16, with functional elements 17 also being configured, between which parts of the filler 14 are lastly inserted. The functional elements 17 thereby relate, for example, to a drive 19 for driving, in a rotary manner, the turnstile, a controller 20, a sensor device 21, a light device 22 or a loudspeaker device 23. The exemplary embodiment shows individual parts of the filler 14, with the filler 14 being shown as dimensionally stable parts which can alternatively also be foamed in between the structural elements 16 and the functional elements 17.

[0039] In FIG. 5, the ceiling assembly 12 is shown in a cross section, and the essential components are formed by the bottom cover panel 13, the top cover panel 15 and the filler 14 arranged between the cover panels 13 and 15. The structural elements 16 represented by way of example pass through the filler 14 in such manner that it is divided into a plurality of components which, however, can also be connected in certain regions. In particular when the filler is introduced between the cover panels 13, 15 in the foaming process, it is advantageous if the structural elements 16 do not completely separate the filler 14 into separate parts, but instead there are connections between skin structures of the filler. The horizontally running structural element 16 can also form a further intermediate cover panel. The functional elements 17 are shown by way of example as a drive, to which the turnstile can be attached in a manner not shown in detail, a controller 20, a sensor device 21, a light device 22 and a loudspeaker device 23. In addition, for example, braking devices and/or blocking devices for braking and for blocking the rotary movement of the turnstile can also be present.

[0040] FIG. 6 once again shows the components of the revolving door 100, comprising the turnstile, the barrel walls 11 and the ceiling assembly 12.

[0041] These individually illustrated components can be brought to the destination of the revolving door 100 each as structural units which can be handled individually, and the components according to the representation can be assembled with one another in a correspondingly simple manner.

[0042] FIG. 7 schematically shows a sequence of the method for producing the ceiling assembly for a revolving door 100, with the method having at least the following steps: First, the bottom cover panel 13 is provided in a preparation step 110. Then, in a configuration step 120, the bottom cover panel is provided with structural elements 16 and/or functional elements 17, which is followed by an introduction step 130, according to which the filler is configured. Thereafter, the sandwich design of the ceiling element is substantially completed in an arrangement step 140 for arranging the top cover panel, whereupon in a finishing step 150, the ceiling assembly is brought to the destination according to the arrangement step 140. In the subsequent assembly step 160, the components of the revolving door 100 are joined together.
