Description

Trim component with adaptable storage space

Technical Field

The subject matter of the application is a trim part with an adaptable storage space, in particular for a vehicle, and the use thereof.

Background

Various trim components having a compliant storage space, such as a storage net or elastic strap, are known in the art for the purpose of securing storage items in place. Furthermore, it is known to provide pockets with elastic bands to obtain pockets with a storage space that can accommodate the stored items.

For example, document US 2011/0198896 A1 discloses a cover for a car seat back having a mesh or net structure that is movable relative to the car seat back, thereby forming an adaptable storage space between the car seat back and the mesh or net structure. Furthermore, an alternative to a mesh or net structure is shown, wherein the pocket has a front portion and an elastic cord, wherein the elastic cord connects the front portion to the car seat back. By moving the front portion relative to the vehicle seat back, the elastic cord extends, creating an adaptive storage space between the front portion and the vehicle seat back.

In order to develop a decorative part with adaptable storage space and a higher aesthetic, on the other hand, US2014/0062147A1 provides a front sleeved vehicle interior pocket. An elastic or resilient material is provided in the sleeve, which, due to its extension, allows the front part to move relative to the ornamental portion, thereby forming a compliant storage space. By providing an elastic or resilient material in the sleeve in the front portion, the elastic or resilient material cannot be hidden visibly in the vehicle interior at least in the non-stretched state. This makes the vehicle interior pockets more attractive and conveys a higher quality impression to the user.

However, it has been shown that known decorative components with an adaptable storage space cannot or at least not always sufficiently prevent a limitation of the functionality of the adaptable storage space or the aesthetic effect of the decorative component. This is particularly evident when using non-stretchable materials for trim parts with adaptable storage spaces.

SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL

Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to develop a decorative component with an adaptive storage space that can maintain the full functionality of the adaptive storage space and improve the user experience at the same time.

This object is achieved by an ornamental component with an adaptable storage space as described below and by the use of an ornamental component with an adaptable storage space as described below:

a trim component with a compliant storage space for a vehicle, comprising:

a carrier element having a first side;

a facing element movable relative to the carrier element and having a visible side facing away from the carrier element, the facing element covering the first side of the carrier element at least in some areas to enable a storage space to be formed between the facing element and the first side of the carrier element; and

a traction device coupled to the carrier element and the finish element and configured to apply a traction force to the finish element, thereby applying a resultant force to the finish element in a direction from the finish element to the carrier element,

the first side edge of the facing element is disposed at least in some areas behind the visible side of the facing element.

The carrier element has a second side opposite the first side, wherein the first side edge of the veneer element is disposed at least in some areas on the second side of the carrier element.

The first side of the veneer element is screwed into at least one helical spring.

A second side edge of the decorative member opposite the first side edge of the veneer element is disposed at least in some areas behind a visible side of the veneer element and/or in some areas on the second side of the carrier element.

The first side edge of the veneer element is movably attached to the carrier element and/or the second side edge of the veneer element is movably attached to the carrier element in the presence of the second side edge of the veneer element to enable the proportions of the veneer element disposed on the first side of the carrier element and behind the visible side of the veneer element or on the first side of the carrier element and on the second side of the carrier element to be varied.

A third side of the veneer element can be pulled away from the first side of the carrier element, wherein the third side of the veneer element is connected to the first side of the veneer element and, in the presence of the second side of the veneer element, to the second side of the veneer element, and/or the third side of the veneer element is provided at least in some areas on the first side of the carrier element.

The facing element is integrally formed and/or constructed of a non-stretchable material.

A stop element is coupled to the first side of the facing element and is configured to retain the first side of the facing element behind the visible side of the facing element and/or on a second side of the load-bearing element.

The traction means has at least one elastic element and/or a spring.

Use of a trim part with adaptable storage space, comprising the steps of:

applying a force opposite to a traction force of a traction device to enlarge the storage space of the trim part;

storing a storage item in the storage space of the trim component; and

reducing a force opposing a traction force of the traction device to reduce the storage space of the trim component.

The trim part with an adaptable storage space proposed herein, in particular for a vehicle, comprises: a carrier element having a first side; a facing element movable relative to the carrier element and having a visible side facing away from the carrier element, the facing element covering the first side of the carrier element at least in some areas to enable a storage space to be formed between the facing element and the first side of the carrier element; and a traction device coupled to the carrier element and the finish element configured to apply a traction force to the finish element, thereby applying a resultant force to the finish element in a direction from the finish element to the carrier element.

The proposed decorative part with an adaptable storage space differs from the prior art in that the first side edge of the decorative element is arranged at least in some areas behind the visible side of the decorative element.

The trim component with adaptable storage space presented herein is based on the insight that: by placing the side edges of the trim element behind the visible side of the trim element, the full functionality of the trim component with an adaptable storage space may be maintained while also improving the user experience. This is because such an arrangement makes it possible to provide only the part of the facing element necessary for forming the storage space to cover the first side of the carrier element. The visible side is understood to be the side of the trim part which is visible to the user. In a vehicle with the proposed trim component, the visible side can be seen or visible, for example, by a user from the interior of the vehicle. The portion of the veneer element not required to form storage space may be hidden behind the visible side. An object arranged behind the visible side of the decorative element is to be understood as meaning that the visible side of the decorative element covers the object, so that it is hidden from the user and/or is not visible or only partially visible, for example from the interior of the means of transport, if the decorative element is not transparent, in particular in a light-tight manner. Examples of vehicles may be vehicles such as passenger cars and buses, trains, airplanes, etc.

For example, a significant stretchability of the non-stretchable facing element can be achieved by providing a sufficient portion of the facing element behind the visible side of the facing element, which portion is moved in front of the first side of the carrier element and becomes visible to the user if a large storage space is required. In this way, in particular, also non-stretchable materials such as leather, synthetic leather, textiles, wood, etc. can be used as a finishing element for covering the first side of the carrier element. This increases the freedom of design in selecting materials for the facing elements of the trim part with adaptable storage space. Thus, a more attractive appearance and an improved user experience of the trim part may be conveyed to the user.

By coupling the pulling device to the carrier element and the veneer element, the veneer element is pressed against the first side of the carrier element. When a user applies a force, the user may open access to the compliant storage space by pulling the facing element at least partially away from the load-bearing element against the traction of the traction device. The storage space is adaptive to the extent that: the veneer element may be moved by a user applying a force as desired within a predetermined spacing relative to the load bearing element. The spacing may extend from a minimum distance between the face element and the carrier element having a minimum volume of storage space to a maximum distance between the face element and the carrier element having a maximum volume of storage space. The minimum distance can be so small that the facing elements rest on the carrier element, in particular flush, so that a storage space volume of approximately zero is formed. The maximum distance may, for example, be at most 30 cm, preferably at most 15 cm. The spacing may be related to the extension of the pulling device and may, for example, extend between a minimum extension and a maximum extension of the pulling device. The length of the traction means with the largest extension may be at least 150%, preferably at least 200% of the length of the traction means with the smallest extension. The maximum length of the user-visible portion of the finishing element may be at least 110%, preferably at least 150%, of the minimum length of the user-visible portion of the finishing element.

The traction force of the traction means on the facing element may be a restoring force brought about by the extension of the traction means. The restoring force, for example, may be used to pull the facing element in the direction of the load bearing element and retain a storage item placed in the storage space when a user increases the storage space by applying a force, places the storage item, and no longer applies any force. The restoring force allows the first side edge of the facing element to be pulled behind the visible side of the facing element. The surface element can thus abut against the storage object and adapt the storage volume to the storage object. The unnecessary storage volume can be reduced accordingly by the restoring force of the pulling device. If no storage space is required, the finishing element can rest flat and uniformly on the carrier element. This may prevent the facing element from wrinkling, sagging, curling or otherwise distorting or sagging, which may result in an unsightly appearance of the trim component and convey a poor quality impression to the user.

The carrier element may have a second side opposite the first side, wherein the first side edge of the veneer element is disposed at least in some areas on the second side of the carrier element. The traction device may be configured to pull the first side edge of the facing element onto the second side of the load-bearing element. By disposing the first side edge of the face element on the second side of the load bearing element, portions of the face element that do not need to overlie the first side of the load bearing element may be hidden from view to a user on the second side of the load bearing element.

Furthermore, the first side edge of the facing element can be screwed into the at least one helical spring. This has the following advantages: the first side edge and the part of the facing element which is not required to cover the first side of the carrier element can be stored without creases or kinks, can be pulled in and out and saves space.

A second side edge of the veneer element, opposite the first side edge of the veneer element, may be provided at least in some areas behind the visible side of the veneer element, and additionally or alternatively on the second side of the carrier element. By arranging the side edges on opposite sides behind the visible side of the surface element or on the second side of the carrier element, the restoring force of the traction means can be distributed on both opposite sides. This is advantageous compared to a unilateral distribution of the restoring force of the pulling device in that: the facer element may be more evenly pressed against the load bearing element and may more evenly support the stored storage item (if present). Furthermore, the durability of the towing installation can also be improved by an even distribution of the restoring forces.

The first side edge of the veneer element and, if present, additionally or alternatively, the second side edge of the veneer element may be movably secured to the carrier element so that the proportions of the placement of the veneer element on the first side of the carrier element and behind the visible side of the veneer element or on the first side of the carrier element and on the second side of the carrier element may be varied. This has the advantage that the portion of the veneer element that does not need to cover the first side of the carrier element can be stored behind the visible side of the veneer element and/or on the second side of the carrier element without folds and kinks, with the first side edge being removably attachable to the carrier element, and with the second side edge, if present, being extendable and retractable, and in an orderly manner.

Additionally, a third side of the veneer element may be provided, wherein the third side of the veneer element is connected to the first side of the veneer element and, if present, to the second side of the veneer element. Additionally or alternatively, the third side edge of the veneer element may be provided at least in some areas on the first side of the load-bearing element. Additionally or alternatively, it may be provided that: the third side edge of the face element can be pulled away from the first side of the load-bearing element. Accordingly, the third side edge of the facing element may be pulled away from the carrier element by a user applying a force against the restoring force of the traction device, and may serve as an access to the adaptable storage space.

The facing element may be integrally formed and additionally or alternatively be constructed of a non-stretchable material. The integrally formed veneer element may present a particularly attractive appearance, thereby conveying a high quality impression to the user. In addition, non-stretchable materials such as leather, synthetic leather, textiles, wood, and the like may also be used. For example, the use of leather upholstery can often be perceived very clearly by the user.

Further, the trim element may have a stop element coupled to the first side edge of the veneer element, and the stop element is configured to retain the first side edge of the veneer element behind the visible side of the veneer element and additionally or alternatively on the second side of the load-bearing element. Furthermore, a second stop element can be provided for the second side of the trim element. The use of one or more stop elements prevents the side edges of the veneer element disposed behind the visible side of the veneer element and/or on the second side of the carrier element from reaching the first side of the carrier element. These sides can therefore only be moved upwards to a position predetermined by the stop element or elements and the maximum achievable volume of storage space can be predetermined.

The traction means can be arranged at least in some regions on the visible side of the veneer element or completely on the visible side of the veneer element. Additionally or alternatively, however, it may also be provided at least in some areas on the second side of the veneer element opposite the visible side of the veneer element, or entirely on the second side of the veneer element opposite the visible side of the veneer element. For example, the traction means provided on the visible side can be sewn in by a hem (hem) and provided as a possible visible sewing design. On the other hand, the traction means provided on the second side of the finishing element may remain hidden from the view of the user.

Alternatively, the traction means may extend, for example, from the first side edge of the facing element to the second side edge of the connecting element, or be arranged in a direction parallel to the first side edge of the facing element. A diagonal arrangement of the traction device may also be provided. The differences in draft gear settings provide a high degree of design freedom, flexibility and application options.

The pulling device can have at least one elastic element and/or a spring. The use of different traction devices and combinations of different traction device types can take advantage of various advantages of each traction device type. Elastic elements, such as rubber bands, latex tapes, elastic cords, etc., provide a flexible space for the design of trim parts with an adaptable storage space. Springs such as coil springs or coiled leaf springs provide particular stability.

Furthermore, the use of a trim part with an adaptable storage space as described above is proposed. The application of the method comprises the following steps:

a) Applying a force opposite to the traction force of the traction means to enlarge the storage space of the trim part,

b) Storing the storage article in the storage space of the decorative member, an

c) The force opposing the traction force of the traction means is reduced to reduce the storage space of the trim part.

Detailed Description

Figures 1a-d show four different top views of an embodiment of the proposed trim part 1 with an adaptable storage space 5, which views show the use of the proposed trim part 1. The decorative member 1 includes: a carrier element 2, a veneer element 3 movable relative to the carrier element 2, a pulling device 4 and two stop elements 9. The surface element 3 has a visible side 31 facing away from the carrier element 2. The visible side 31 is to be understood as the visible side of the trim part 1 for the user. In a transport vehicle with trim part 1, the visible side 31 can be seen or visible, in particular by a user, from the interior of the transport vehicle. The surface element 3 covers the first side of the carrier element 2 at least in some areas, so that a storage space 5 can be formed between the surface element 3 and the first side of the carrier element 2. The pulling device 4 is coupled with the carrier element 2 and the finishing element 3 and is configured to apply a pulling force to the finishing element 3 such that a resultant force is applied to the finishing element 3 in the direction of the finishing element 3 to the carrier element 2. The pulling force of the pulling device 4 on the surface element 3 is the restoring force resulting from the elongation of the pulling device 4.

The first side edge 6 of the finishing element 3 and the second side edge 7 opposite the first side edge 6 are arranged at least in some areas behind the visible side 31 of the finishing element 3 and behind the second side opposite the first side of the carrier element. However, it can also be provided that the first side edge 6 and/or the second side edge 7 are arranged only behind the visible side 31. The first side 6 and the second side 7 are each connected to a stop element 9. The stop element 9 is configured to hold the first side edge 6 and the second side edge 7 behind the visible side edge 31 and/or on the second side of the carrier element 2. This arrangement of the first and second side edges 6, 7 of the face element 3 may provide a portion of the face element 3 that is only used to form the storage space 5 to cover the first side of the carrier element 2. The parts of the finishing element 3 which are not necessary for forming the storage space 5 can be hidden behind the visible side 31 or on the second side of the carrier element 2. The formation of sagging and wrinkles of the finishing element 3 due to the superfluous parts of the finishing element 3 on the visible side 31 is prevented. The overall functionality of the trim part 1 can thus be retained and at the same time the user experience can be improved.

Fig. 1a shows the decorative part 1 in a state with a minimum storage volume. The distance between the carrier element 2 and the finishing element 3 is minimal. The finishing element 3 is placed tightly, smoothly and flush on the carrier element 2. The unwanted part of the finishing element is arranged behind the visible side 31 or on the second side of the carrier element 2. The proportion of the arrangement of the finishing element 3 on the first side of the carrier element 2 and behind the visible side 31 of the finishing element 3 and/or on the second side of the carrier element 2 is minimal. The first side edge 6 and/or the second side edge 7 of the face element 3 may be movably attached to the carrier element 2. In the embodiment of fig. 1a-d, the first side edge 6 of the finishing element 3 is movably attached to the carrier element 2. The second side edge 7 is fixedly attached to the carrier element 2. Since the first side edge 6 and/or the second side edge 7 are movably attached to the carrier element 2, the proportion of the arrangement of the finishing element 3 on the first side of the carrier element 2 and behind the visible side 31 of the finishing element 3 or on the first side of the carrier element 2 and on the second side of the carrier element 2 can be adjusted and wrinkling or sagging of the finishing element 3 can be prevented. Furthermore, a significant stretchability may be achieved by providing a sufficient portion of the surfacing element 3 behind the visible side 31 of the surfacing element 3, which portion is moved in front of the first side of the carrying element 2 and becomes visible to the user if a large storage space 5 is required. In this way, in particular, also non-stretchable materials, such as leather, synthetic leather, textiles, wood, etc., can be used as a finishing element 3 to cover the first side of the carrier element 2. This increases the freedom of design in the choice of material for the decorative element 3 of the trim part 1 with the adaptable storage space 5. Thus, a more attractive appearance and an improved user experience of the trim part 1 can be conveyed to the user.

Fig. 1b shows a situation in which the user exerts a force in a direction 11 to enlarge the storage space 5 of the trim part 1, wherein this direction 11 is opposite to the force generated by the traction force of the traction means 4. The force exerted by the user must be greater than the force generated by the traction of the traction means 4 so that the finishing element 3 can be moved away from the carrier element 2 and the storage space 5 can be used. The movable attachment of the first side edge 6 of the facing element 3 to the carrier element 2 enables the portion of the facing element 3 disposed behind the visible side 31 or on the second side of the carrier element 2 to be pulled in front of the first side of the carrier element 2. The stop element 9 arranged on the first side 6 prevents that the first side 6 can also move to the first side of the carrier element and maintains the functionality of the adaptable storage space.

The trim part 1 shown in figure 1b is shown in a state with a maximum storage volume. The distance between the carrier element 2 and the veneer element 3 is at a maximum. The part of the finishing element 3 which is not required and is depicted in fig. 1a is arranged on the first side of the carrier element 2 in order to maximize the storage space 5. The proportion of the arrangement of the finishing element 3 on the first side of the carrier element 2 and behind the visible side 31 of the finishing element 3 and/or on the second side of the carrier element 2 is at a maximum.

As shown in fig. 1c, the user can now store the storage article 10 in the storage space 5 of the decorative member 1, which storage space 5 is held by applying a force. The user must continue to exert a force in the direction 11 so that the passage into the storage space 5 is not closed by the restoring force of the towing means 4.

Once storage item 10 is stored or placed in a storage space, the user may reduce or stop the application of force in direction 11. The restoring force of the towing attachment 4 thus adapts the facing element 3 to the shape of the storage article 10, as shown in fig. 1d, and holds or secures the storage article 10 in place. It can also be seen that the part of the finishing element 3 which is pulled forward on the first side of the carrier element 2 remains on the first side of the carrier element 2. Depending on the size and shape of the storage articles 10 or the required storage space 5 and the restoring force of the towing means 4, various configurations or different proportions of the arrangement of the finishing element 3 on the first side of the carrier element 2 and behind the visible side 31 of the finishing element 3 or on the first side of the carrier element 2 and on the second side of the carrier element 2 can be provided between the minimum storage space 5 (fig. 1 a) and the maximum storage space 5 (fig. 1 b-d).

Figures 2a-c are two top views of three different embodiments of the proposed trim part 1, respectively, which represent different embodiments of the towing means 4. In each of these three embodiments, the decorative member 1 is described in a state having the minimum storage space 5 as shown in fig. 1a at a time, and in a state having the maximum storage space 5 as shown in fig. 1b at a time. In the following, the matching features of the proposed trim piece 1 are identified by the same reference numerals. And therefore the repeated description of the features already described is not necessary.

In fig. 2a, the trim part 1 is shown, wherein the towing attachment 4 has a resilient element on a second side of the carrier element 2 close to the first side edge 6. The resilient element extends around the carrier element 2 such that it extends on a first side of the carrier element 2 and terminates on a second side of the carrier element 2 adjacent the second side edge 7. The two side edges 6, 7 are movably attached to the second side of the carrier element 2. Thus, the undesired part of the finishing element 3 can be pulled onto the first side of the carrier element 2 from two opposite directions. This enables the user to adjust the storage space 5 of the trim part 1 more consistently and thus simplifies the use of the trim part 1.

The trim part 1 shown in fig. 2b comprises a pulling device 4 with two elastic bands which are arranged only on the second side of the carrier element 2 and which couple the first side edge 6 and the second side edge 7 to the carrier element 2. By using such a pulling device 4 with two elastic bands, the user can be prevented from seeing the pulling device 4, but the full functionality of the trim part 1 with the adaptable storage space 5 can still be made available.

Fig. 2c shows a trim part 1 with a pulling device 4 with an elastic band which is arranged only on the second side of the carrier element 2 and between the first side edge 6 and the second side edge 7. The elastic band is attached to the first side edge 6 and the second side edge 7. It may be provided that: the elastic band extends over the entire length of the carrier element in a state of maximum storage space. In this embodiment, the towing means 4 are also not visible to the user, but the full functionality of the trim part 1 with the adaptable storage space 5 can still be made available.

Fig. 3 shows a top view of a part of the decorative part 1, wherein two different variants of the stop element 9 are depicted and the decorative part is in a state of maximum storage space. In a first variant of the stop element 9 shown on the left, the stop element 9 is designed as a rod or a rope, around which the first side 6 or the second side 7 is wound and forms a flap (flap). The broken lines schematically represent the seams joining the respective side edges 6 or 7, the finishing element 3 and the elastic band of the pulling device 4 to one another. When the storage space is reduced, the restoring force of the elongated elastic band of the pulling device 4 pulls the stop element 9 together with the surface element 3 and the respective side edge 6 or 7 to the right in the illustration shown. As a result, the excess of the finishing element 3 that is not required for forming a storage space is pulled out of the visible area 31 and the finishing element 3 is leveled in the visible area 31, so that no wavy shapes or wrinkles occur in the visible area 31. In a second variant of the stop element 9 shown on the right in fig. 3, instead of a rod or a string, the side edges 6 or 7 of the finishing element 3 folded or rolled several times are sewn together. In this case, the finishing element is also joined to the elastic element of the traction means by a seam in order to achieve the described function.

Fig. 4a and 4b show an embodiment of the proposed decorative part 1 from fig. 1a-d in a side view, wherein fig. 4a shows the decorative part 1 in a minimum storage space state and fig. 4b, on the other hand, shows the decorative part in a maximum storage space state. The side view generally corresponds to a view in which the user notices the decorative member 1. The visible side 31 of the finishing element 3 is shown as a square. The square is in the shape of a trapezoid shown in dotted lines intended to schematically show the invisible path of the veneer element 3. In particular, the triangular (as shown) portions of the veneer element 3 beyond the visible side 31 of the veneer element 3 may be arranged on the left and right side of the square on the second side of the carrier element 2, i.e. on the back of the carrier element 2. The trim part 1 has a third side edge 8 of the finishing element 3, wherein the third side edge 8 of the finishing element 3 is connected to the first side edge 6 and the second side edge 7. The third side edge 8 is arranged on a first side of the carrier element 2, which is designed to be pulled away from the carrier element 2, as can be seen from a direct comparison of fig. 4a and 4 b. The third side 8 thus forms, together with the carrier element 2, an access to the adaptive storage space 5. The pulling device 4 is shown arranged as an elastic band along the third side edge 8. The pulling device 4 or the elastic band is arranged on the visible side 31 of the surface element 3. For example, it may be sewn to the hem (hem). This provides the possibility of a visible sewing design. However, it may also be provided on the second side of the surfacing element 3 so as to be hidden from the user. Furthermore, the finishing element 3 of the proposed trim part 1 can be integrally formed. Thus, a particularly attractive appearance can be achieved and a high quality can be communicated to the user.

The directional arrow 13 in fig. 4b indicates the direction of movement of the finishing element 3 to enlarge the storage space. The third side 8 is pulled forward and arched to expose access to the adaptive storage space 5. The double arrow 14 indicates the extension of the elastic band of the towing means 4.

Fig. 5a and 5b disclose different embodiments and arrangements of the elastic bands of the pulling means 4 of the proposed lining element 1 as in the side views of fig. 4a and 4 b. In particular, it is possible to provide the portions of the finishing element 3 shown in dashed lines on the second side of the carrier element 2.

Fig. 5a shows an embodiment of the pulling device 4 with three horizontally arranged elastic bands. The elastic strip is arranged parallel to the third side edge 8 or the side edge of the finishing element opposite the third side edge 8. The elastic bands are distributed vertically over the visible area 31 of the surface element 3. A visible sewing design for visual enhancement of the trim part 1 can thus be made. The plurality of horizontally arranged elastic bands may improve the stability of the storage forming surface element 3 and improve the retention of the storage article 10 in a compliant storage space.

In another embodiment, an elastic band can be provided which is provided only on the first and second side edges 6, 7 and on another decor of the carrier element 2 or the trim part 1. Therefore, the user cannot see the elastic band while maintaining the function of the decorative member 1. An example of such an embodiment is shown in fig. 5 b. Here, for example, three elastic bands are provided per side edge 6 and 7.

Fig. 6a and 6b depict an embodiment of the proposed trim part 1, wherein the pulling means 4 comprise leaf springs.

An embodiment of the trim part 1 with the flat springs of the pulling device 4, which are arranged along the third side edge 8 of the veneer element 3, is shown in the side view of fig. 6a and in the top view of fig. 6 b. The flat springs may be arranged on the visible side 31 of the surface element 3 or on the second side of the surface element 3. For example, the sheet springs may be sewn to the hem (hem). The user may apply a force in the direction 11 to place the leaf spring in a bent state. In the bent state, the leaf spring exerts a restoring force, pushing the leaf spring back into the unbent state. Alternatively, the first side 6 and/or the second side 7 may be screwed into at least one helical spring, respectively. For example, a coil spring may be applied such that the leaf spring is screwed into the end of the coil spring, as shown in fig. 6b, and acts as a coiled leaf spring. A coiled leaf spring is a spring having two stable rest states.
