DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

[0071] FIG. 1a shows a door 10 with a fixed frame 12 and a sash 14. The sash 14 is slidable parallel to an indicated central main plane 16 of the fixed frame 12 in order to open and close the sash 14, i.e., to open or cover a main opening of the fixed frame 12.

[0072] The sash 14 has a sash profile 18 on which a fitting arrangement 20 is installed. The fitting arrangement 20 allows the sash 14 to move relative to the fixed frame 12. The fitting arrangement 20 is provided at least on the underside of the sash 14, in the present case at least on the underside and the upper side of the sash 14.

[0073] A carriage 22 is provided for moving the sash 14 parallel to the central main plane 16. The carriage 22 has a sash part 24 and a roller part 26 with a roller 28. The roller 28 runs on a running rail 30 of the fixed frame 12.

[0074] The sash 14 can be locked to the fixed frame 12, in particular, to latching elements not shown here. For locking, the sash 14 can be moved transversely, in particular, perpendicularly, to the extension of the running rail 30 towards the fixed frame 12. To unlock the sash 14, the sash 14 can be moved (detached) from the fixed frame 12 transversely, in particular, perpendicularly, to the extension of the running rail 30 away from the fixed frame 12. To achieve this movement of the sash 14 transversely to the extension of the running rail 30, a control arm 32, in the present case a control arm 32 and an upper side control arm 34, is provided. The upper side control arm 34 can be constructed identically to or as a mirror image of the control arm 32. Preferably, two control arms and two upper side control arms are provided to evenly position the entire sash 14. Optionally, at least one additional control arm and/or one additional upper side control arm may be provided. Additional control arms/additional upper side control arms may be provided to press the sash 14 evenly and tightly against the fixed frame 12.

[0075] The control arm 32 is actuated by a drive rod 36. The drive rod 36 runs in a first groove 38 of the sash profile 18. The upper side control arm 34 is actuated by an upper side drive rod 40. Since the first groove 38 in the present case is formed circumferentially on the sash profile 18, the section of the first groove 38 on the upper side of the sash 14 represents an upper side groove 42.

[0076] The control arm 32 is supported on the fixed frame 12 by a support part 44. The support part 44 is supported directly on the fixed frame 12. It is designed in the form of a roller. The support part 44 can be guided in a guide groove 46 of the fixed frame 12. The support part 44 preferably extends transversely, in particular, perpendicularly to the main plane of the control arm 32.

[0077] The upper side control arm 34 is supported on the fixed frame 12 by an upper side support part 48. The upper side support part 48 is supported directly on the fixed frame 12. It is designed in the form of a roller. Preferably, the upper side support part 48 is constructed identically to the support part 44. The upper side support part 48 can be guided in an upper side guide groove 50 of the fixed frame 12.

[0078] The control arm 32 is still supported on the fixed frame 12 via the roller 28 on the running rail 30. For this purpose, the roller part 26 is connected to the control arm 32 via a connector 52.

[0079] FIGS. 1b to 1e show views of the carriage 22, from which it can be seen that the roller part 26 can be moved straight, i.e., without curvature, with respect to the sash part 24 (see, in particular, FIGS. 1d and 1e). In the present case, the roller part 26 has an additional roller 54 in addition to the roller 28. The rollers 28, 54 are arranged in a roller cage 56.

[0080] FIG. 1f shows a part of the fitting arrangement 20 with the control arm 32, which can be actuated by the drive rod 36. The control arm 32 can be pivoted with respect to the drive rod 36 via a bearing 58. A pin 60 is attached to the drive rod 36 and is guided in a slot 62 of the control arm 32. The slot 62 has control flanks 64a, 64b on both sides in its extension (i.e., its direction of extension). These control flanks 64a,b enable both a positively controlled, guided pivoting out of the control arm 32 and a positively controlled, guided pivoting in of the control arm 32.

[0081] If the drive rod 36 is moved with the pin 60 in a first direction 66, the control arm 32 pivots out in the direction of an arrow 68. This preferably corresponds to detaching the sash 14 (see FIG. 1a) from the fixed frame 12 (see FIG. 1a). If, on the other hand, the pin 60 is moved in the opposite direction (second direction; not shown), the control arm 32 pivots in the opposite direction of the arrow 68. This preferably corresponds to closing/locking or pulling the sash 14 (see FIG. 1a) towards the fixed frame 12 (see FIG. 1a). The pin 60 can be mushroom-head-shaped to guide the control arm 32.

[0082] FIGS. 1g to 1j show this movement of the control arm 32 of the fitting arrangement 20. FIG. 1g is a plan view of the control arm 32, FIG. 1h is a corresponding front view of the control arm 32 with the support part 44 and the carriage 22 in a first position of the pin 60. FIG. 1i is a plan view of the control arm 32, FIG. 1j is a corresponding front view of the control arm 32 with the support part 44 and the carriage 22 in a second position of the pin 60.

[0083] FIGS. 1k and 1l show the connector 52 for positive control of the roller part 26 (see FIGS. 1a to 1e). The connector 52 has multiple through-recesses 70a, 70b, 70c, 70d for variably receiving a pin (not shown). The through-recesses 70a-d allow adjustment of the length of the connector 52.

[0084] FIGS. 1m and 1n show the connector 52 according to FIGS. 1k and 1l. From a combination of FIGS. 1k to 1n, it can be seen that the connector 52 has two hinges 72a, 72b, so that the ends of the connector 52 (seen in the longitudinal direction of the connector 52) are adjustable both horizontally and vertically relative to one another.

[0085] FIG. 2 shows a further embodiment of a door 10, in which the positive control for opening and closing a sash 14 from a fixed frame 12 or to a fixed frame 12 is carried out via a support part 44. A connector (see connector 52 according to FIG. 1a) for controlling the carriage 22 is not provided.

[0086] FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of a door 10, in which a carriage 22 is arranged parallel to the extension of a running rail 30, offset in the direction of extension of the running rail 30, behind a control arm controlled by a drive rod 36 (not shown, see control arm 32 according to FIGS. 1f to 1i).

[0087] FIG. 4 shows a door 10 in which a carriage 22 with a roller part 26 and an additional carriage 74 with an additional roller part 76 are provided on the underside of a sash 14. The carriages 22, 74 are arranged next to one another, parallel to the extension of a drive rod 36. The carriages 22, 74 are arranged on different sides of the drive rod 36. The drive rod 36 runs in a first groove 38. The carriage 22 is arranged in a second groove 78. The additional carriage 74 is arranged in a third groove 80. The roller parts 26, 76 canas in the present casenot be positively controlled or can be articulated by corresponding connectors (see connector 52 according to FIGS. 1k to 1n).

[0088] FIG. 5 shows a door 10 with a carriage 22 with a roller part 26 and an additional roller part 76. The roller parts 26, 76 are arranged next to one another, parallel to the extension of a drive rod 36. One roller part 26 or both roller parts 26, 76, generally speaking multiple roller parts 26, 76, can be positively controlled by one or more connectors 52.

[0089] FIG. 6 shows an embodiment of a door 10 in which a support part 44 is finger shaped.

[0090] FIG. 7 shows an embodiment of a door 10 in which a roller part 26 has projections 82a, 82b in order to hold the roller part 26 on the running rail 30 even under heavy loads transversely to the extension of a running rail 30.

[0091] When viewing all the figures of the drawing in combination, the invention relates to a window or a door 10. The window or door 10 has a fixed frame 12 and a sash 14 movable relative to the fixed frame 12. The sash 14 is supported on a running rail 30 of the fixed frame 12 via at least one carriage 22 with respectively at least one roller 28. The sash 14 can be moved transversely, in particular, perpendicularly to the main plane 16 of the fixed frame 12 by a control arm 32, wherein a roller part 26 of the carriage 22 moves in a straight line with respect to a sash part 24 of the carriage 22. The control arm 32 is supported on the fixed frame 12 via the roller 28 of the roller part 26 and/or via a support part 44. The control arm 32 is preferably actuated by the longitudinal movement of a drive rod 36, wherein the movement is imparted via a pin 60 which is guided in a slot 62. The slot 62 guides the pin 60 on both sides with both control flanks 64a,b, except for the play necessary to move the pin 60 in the slot 62.
