Original Kurzfassung:
Ultra slim framed windows and doors allow extraordinary
architectural creations and meet highest aesthetic
requirements. This makes the stick system fac¸ade a solution that
combines lightness and openness in design with a high degree of
functionality. Especially active fac¸ade elements integrated into a
smart home environment raise the functionality of the outer skin
of the building to a new level. The proposed integrated linear
motor drive solves the aesthetic issue of an additional framing
and allows the sliding window sash to open fully and silently.
From the technical point of view the main requirements are a
durable and very flat motor design with a thermal and windload
tolerance compensation. The segmented central direct drive
is compact, does not require a gear box and reduces the noise level
to the audible limit. The design of the proposed linear machine
is aimed at energy-efficient integration into the fac¸ade, simplicity
and comfort as well as robustness and durability. It is tolerant
to weather influences and proposes solutions to the technical
consequences of aesthetic benefits.
The system is modeled and optimized using FE analyses and
a genetic optimization algorithm. Finally the manufactured
prototype validates the functionality of the system.
