Abstract

A folding table, preferably in a motor vehicle, is fitted with a table top which is displaceable in guide rails arranged in pairs one after the other from an approximately vertical rest position into an approximately horizontal position of use. The guide rail near to the table is mounted pivotably at its lower end and both guide rails have at their upper end parts of a hook locking mechanism whose blocking effect is only cancelled when the table top is moved into the position of use if the table top is pivoted after it has been pulled out.

Description

ein Hakengesperre 15 ab. Dieses weist einen fest mit der vorderen Führungsschiene 6 verbundenen Haken 16 und einen als zweiarmigen, federbeaufschlagten Hebel ausgebildeten und schwenkbar an der hinteren Führungsschiene 5 gelagerten Haken 17 auf, wobei dessen entgegengesetztes Ende 18 indirekt durch den Führungskörper 4 beaufschlagbar ist. Eine in F i g. 2 angedeutete, an der Führungsschiene 6 festgelegte Blende 19 überdeckt bei vorgeschwenkter Führungsschiene 6 den zwischen ihr und der Führungsschiene 5 sich bildenden Spalt 20 und jeweils eine zwischen beiden Führungsschienen gespannte Feder 21 sorgt dafür, daß bei abgesenkter Tischplatte 2, diese zusammen mit den Führungsschienen 5 in eine nicht dargestellte Aussparung der eingangs erwähnten, gleichfalls nicht gezeigten Abdeckung gezogen wird.a hook lock 15. This has a hook 16 firmly connected to the front guide rail 6 and one designed as a two-armed, spring-loaded lever and pivotable on the rear guide rail 5 mounted hook 17, its opposite end 18 indirectly through the guide body 4 can be acted upon. One shown in FIG. Aperture 19, indicated in FIG. 2, fixed on the guide rail 6 covers when the guide rail 6 is pivoted forwards, that which is formed between it and the guide rail 5 Gap 20 and in each case a spring 21 tensioned between the two guide rails ensures that when lowered Table top 2, this together with the guide rails 5 in a recess, not shown the cover mentioned at the beginning, also not shown, is pulled.

In dieser Stellung weisen die Führungsschienen 5 und 6, wie aus F i g. 1 in ausgezogenen Linien hervorgeht, nur noch einen minimalen Abstand voneinander auf und die Haken 16 und 17 des Hakengesperres 15 stützen sich nicht gegenseitig ab. Erst wenn die Tischplatte 2 zum Herausführen aus der Aussparung weggeschwenkt und anschließend bis in die in F i g. 2 angedeutete Stellung hochgeführt wird, wobei während dieser Auszugsbewegung die Tischplatte 2 in vorteilhafter Weise nur wenig geneigt ist, stützen sich die beiden Haken 16 und 17 aneinander ab.In this position, the guide rails 5 and 6, as shown in FIG. 1 is shown in solid lines, only a minimal distance from one another and the hooks 16 and 17 of the hook ratchet 15 are supported not mutually exclusive. Only when the table top 2 is swiveled away from the recess and then up to the in F i g. 2 indicated position is raised, during this pull-out movement the table top 2 is advantageously only slightly inclined, the two hooks 16 and 17 are supported off each other.

Die der Führung des Führungskörpers 3 dienende Führungsbahn 22 in der Führungsschiene 5 weist in ihrem oberen Bereich einen Absatz 23 auf, in den der Führungskörper 3 dann einläuft, wenn ausgehend aus der in F i g. 2 dargestellten Auszugslage die Tischplatte 2 weiter aufwärts bewegt wird. In nicht näher dargestellter Weise erfolgt bei diesem Übertritt durch die den Führungskörper 3 aufnehmende Lasche 24 eine Beaufschlagung des Endes 18 des Hakens 17, worauf dieser — wie F i g. 3 zeigt — nach unten schwenkt und außer Eingriff mit dem Haken 16 gelangt. Bei diesem Vorgang kippt gleichzeitig der andere Führungskörper 4 ab und tritt aus einem Fenster 25 aus, das im oberen Ende 14 der Führungsschiene 6 eingelassen ist.The guide track 22 serving to guide the guide body 3 in the guide rail 5 has in its upper area has a shoulder 23 into which the guide body 3 then enters when starting out the in F i g. 2, the table top 2 is moved further upwards. In not shown In this way, an impact occurs through the tab 24 receiving the guide body 3 of the end 18 of the hook 17, whereupon this - as FIG. 3 shows - pivots down and except Engages the hook 16. During this process, the other guide body 4 tilts and at the same time emerges from a window 25 which is let into the upper end 14 of the guide rail 6.

Auf diese Weise wird ein Auflager geschaffen, um das die Tischplatte 2 beim weiteren Überführen in die Gebrauchslage schwenkt, wobei, wie in F i g. 1 in strichpunktierten Linien angedeutet, unter Hochlauf des Führungskörpers 3 bis zum Ende der Führungsbahn 22 sich die Führungsschiene 6 unter Vergrößerung des gegenüber der anderen Führungsschiene 5 eingeschlossenen Winkels weiter entfernt.In this way, a support is created around which the table top 2 when it is further transferred into the position of use pivots, wherein, as in FIG. 1 indicated in dash-dotted lines, with the guide body running up 3 to the end of the guide track 22, the guide rail 6 with enlargement of the opposite the other guide rail 5 included angle further away.

Beim Überführen der Tischplatte 2 in ihre Ruhestellung läuft der beschriebene Bewegungsvorgang in umgekehrter Reihenfolge ab.When the table top 2 is moved into its rest position, the movement process described runs in reverse Order.

Claims

1 2 is known from DE-PS 30 15 556, required for the claims: Arrangement of the guide rails a relatively large overall depth, which is particularly important in a folding table

1. Folding table, the side of which is rear-mounted in pairs on the backrest of a front seat in a mutually arranged guide rails 5 motor vehicle is therefore not available because the table top is guided from an approximately vertical resting position - otherwise the remaining knee position into an approximately horizontal position of use when the front seat is occupied freedom is no longer enough. Furthermore, the known folding table has the disadvantage that the table top already encloses an acute angle, at the beginning of the transfer process into the use position, with the guide they receive, continuously moving around a larger one increasing rubbing bodies a forced pivoting movement is swung out, so that it is difficult for the operator of the table top and for securing your two end persons to create positions without changing the sitting position, thereby moving the table top past the knees,
