Description

The The invention relates to a storage stand for a soldering iron according to the preamble of the protection claim 1.

Tray stand the in the kind in question find use, in particular a soldering iron between the phases in which it is in immediate use. In this case, the soldering iron usually in certain areas, in particular in the region of its tip and the heating element, a comparatively high temperature, which is regularly above the melting temperature of the solder used is. This temperature must not be damaged or destruction lead the filing stand.

Out In the prior art storage racks are known, which are essentially consist of a thermoset material. However, in the area of Recording for the soldering iron usually An aluminum casting funnel arranged to reduce the risk of destruction or damage of the thermoset due to the heated soldering iron. The production this known storage rack takes place in that the existing of the thermoset material housing parts and the Alumi cast aluminum funnel prefabricated and then assembled become. This is complicated and therefore relatively expensive.

outgoing From this prior art, it is the object of the present Invention, a storage rack for one soldering iron to create that reliable against damage or destruction by the temperature of the soldering iron protected and is comparatively easy to produce.

These Task is by a filing stand according to the teaching of the protection claim 1 solved.

advantageous Embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Of the workstand for one soldering iron points first once in for known manner, a recording in the recess of the Soldering iron between the use phases can be inserted and thus stored so that he kept safe and reliable becomes.

According to the invention workstand essentially box-like with a front wall, a rear wall and two side walls educated. These walls serve in addition to the formation of the actual body the filing stand also for achieving a combustion protection or injury protection the user. The recording for the soldering iron is in the area of one of the walls arranged. walls and the recording consist essentially of a heat-resistant silicone material. In this case, in particular, the higher temperature resistance is advantageous of silicone compared to the previously used thermosets as well the easier processing by, for example, injection molding. moreover Silicone is a comparatively soft material, so the danger the damage of thin soldering tips when inserting the soldering iron is reduced in the recording. This is especially important because with progressive miniaturization in electronics ever finer and against mechanical damage more sensitive soldering tips to be used.

It is first in principle arbitrarily, on which of the walls the recording for arranged the soldering iron is. Preferably, however, this is the end wall. Also the kind of Attachment of the recording is arbitrary; such as recording and the associated wall carried out separately and then with each other get connected. Preferably, however, is the receptacle for the soldering iron to the associated wall, in particular the end wall, integrally formed. This can be done in a simple manner, for example by injection molding.

To a further embodiment provided in the end wall a trough-like recess, the Picking up a sponge or the like for cleaning a tip of the soldering iron serves.

Preferably is between the side walls, the front wall and the rear wall formed a further upwardly open recess in the at in the recording plugged soldering iron the tip of the soldering iron protrudes. This will damage the soldering tip prevents and on the other hand, this recess for receiving a sponge or other accessories. In this case, the recess after be open at the bottom. Preferably, however, the recess is downwards essentially trough-shaped closed.

To a particularly preferred embodiment The invention are in the region of the upper edges of the side walls, the Front wall and / or the rear wall formed flange-like base having recesses, the for holding additional parts, in particular soldering and Entlötspitzen or the like, serve.

In basically any way, the elements of the storage rack, such as end wall, rear wall and / or the side walls can be made separately and connected to each other. Such a connection can be done for example by gluing or in the manner of a snap-in connection. According to a particularly preferred Ausfüh However, the elements, in particular the wall elements, end wall, rear wall and / or side walls, are integrally formed. This results in a particularly cost-effective production, for example by injection molding due to the reduced assembly costs.

In in principle in any way, the box-shaped storage rack after be downwardly formed trough-shaped open. Preferably, however is the filing stand between the side walls, the front wall and the rear wall at least partially provided with a floor made of the same Silicone material like the walls exists and on the walls attached, for example glued or locked, or integrally formed is. Due to the friction-increasing Properties of the relatively soft silicone material and the associated slip resistance can be on separate rubber feet or the like can be dispensed with.

To a further embodiment can in at least one of the walls, In particular, the end wall, information carrier be on or molded, For example, manufacturer information, article numbers, type specifications, Logos or the like. It can be made separately and affixed information carrier like nameplates are omitted.

Basically enough the temperature resistance, in particular the continuous temperature resistance of the Silicone material to protect against damage or destruction the soldering iron to be secured. However, if temperatures are expected to exceed the Temperature resistance or temperature resistance of the silicone material used can lie can according to another embodiment one in the recording for the soldering iron arranged sleeve made of heat resistant Material, in particular metal or a metallic alloy provided be. The sleeve can inserted in any way in the recess of the recording or but in the manufacture of recording example, molded by injection molding be.

To a particularly preferred embodiment According to the invention, the silicone material used is antistatic and / or electrically conductive.

in the The invention is based on only one embodiment showing drawings closer explained. Show it:

1 in a schematic perspective view of an embodiment of a filing stand according to the invention; and

2 in one of the 1 corresponding representation of the storage rack after 1 with stored soldering iron and additional parts.

The in 1 illustrated storage rack 1 has an end wall 5 , a back wall 2 and two side walls 3 and 4 on, which together form a box-shaped housing.

In the area of the front wall 5 is a recording 6 arranged for a soldering iron, not shown, in the embodiment shown here in one piece to the end wall 5 formed. The recording 6 is formed substantially annular or funnel-shaped and defines a recess 7 into which the soldering iron can be inserted.

In the front wall 5 is a recess 8th arranged, which is formed substantially trough-like. In this recess, for example, a sponge or the like may be arranged for cleaning a soldering tip.

Between the side walls 3 and 4 , the front wall 5 and the back wall 2 is another upwardly open recess 9 arranged, which is also trough-like, that is formed with a substantially closed bottom.

In the area of the upper edges of the two side walls 3 and 4 are flange-like pedestals 10 and 11 formed. These pedestals 10 and 11 have recesses 12 . 13 . 14 and 15 on, which serve for receiving additional parts, such as soldering tips or the like.

The box-like storage rack 1 is made of a heat-resistant and antistatic silicone material in one piece by injection molding.

In the area of his front wall 5 is the filing stand 1 with an information carrier 16 provided in the form of a company logo and a type designation. In this case, the information carrier is formed in the production in the injection molding tool in the silicone material.
