Pointer attachment

The innovation relates to the pointer attachment on a clock, consisting of consisting of a pointer and a pointer shaft that can be plugged onto a pointer shaft Pointer socket. Especially with Au ^ ouh ^ n the pointer shape must be adapted to the other instruments, so that different pointers have to be used for each type of car. These Pointers consist of a one-piece plastic part with the pointer socket. Here, the socket part with special Precision can be produced, as there should be a tight fit between the bushing bore and the pointer shaft. This makes the production of the pointer more expensive. With some types of pointer there is a requirement that the large The socket part should be dark in color and the pointer, on the other hand, should have a light color. This requires painting of the pointer or socket with color, which is relatively expensive. It has therefore already been proposed to use socket and pointer to be connected to one another as separate components by means of adhesive. However, such an adhesive connection can rarely be carried out properly, on the other hand there is the risk of that with a faulty connection as a result of the vibrations the pointer can be detached from the socket. It

the task is to avoid these disadvantages.

With a pointer attachment of the type mentioned therefore proposed according to the innovation that pointer and pointer socket consist of separate components and the pointer can be connected to the socket via a locking device.

In this way, ed is enabled, the pointer and the pointer socket made from different colored plastics. Furthermore, different types of pointers can be stuck onto the same, precisely manufactured pointer book.

The innovation is explained in more detail with reference to the figures represent an embodiment. Show it:

FIG. 1 shows a section through the pointer attachment according to the innovation,

FIG. 2 is a plan view of the underside of the pointer,

FIG. 3 shows a section through the pointer socket and

FIG. 4 is a plan view of the top of the pointer bush.

The elongated pointer 1 has two narrow locking lugs 3 and 4 directed in the direction of the dial. When plugged onto the socket 2, these locking lugs snap into two edge-side recesses 5 and 6 of the socket 2. The socket 2 itself is pushed onto the pointer shaft 6. A slot 7, which is used to receive a part 8 of the pointer 1, runs transversely to the pointer axis 6 on the upper side of the socket. Part 8 of the pointer is - 3 -

kept the same width as the Raetnasen 3 and 4, which are preferably narrower than the pointer 1 itself. The slot 7 is thereby covered by the pointer 1, so that it does not * ·? =.? is. P "?

Due to the detachable locking connection, it is not necessary to pull the socket off the pointer shaft in the event of a repair. It is only necessary to remove the pointer from the socket to decrease.

Claims (1)

Protection claims Pointer attachment for a clock, consisting of a pointer and a pointer socket which can be plugged onto a pointer shaft, characterized in that that pointer and pointer socket consist of separate parts and the pointer with the socket over a latching device can be connected. Pointer fastening according to claim 1, characterized in that the pointer is two down in Has locking lugs pointing towards the dial, each in an edge-side recess the socket can be snapped into place. Pointer attachment according to Claim 1, characterized in that the lining is on its upper side has a slot running transversely to the pointer axis for receiving part of the pointer.
