DE8814868U1 - Screen with several pivoting stiffening struts - Google Patents

Description

The invention relates to a folding screen with several pivotably mounted stiffening struts which are connected to a bearing.

Screens of the type shown are already known for flexible installation. These screens have a quarter or semi-circular shape and can be set up in the intended shape.

The invention is based on the object of designing a folding screen in such a way that it can be bent in a vertical direction and thus two parts of the folding screen, viewed in plan, run at any angle < 180°.

This object is achieved according to the invention in that two lateral bearings, each of which can be rotated about vertical axes, are arranged on a vertically extending central holder for connecting the struts, whereby the center holder and/or the rotating bearings with

downward-facing fastening elements or are designed for the arrangement of lower fastening elements. The central holder is expediently detachably fastened to a base plate. In an embodiment of the invention, the base plate has several holes which are designed to accommodate locking cams. Expedient embodiments of the invention are shown in the further subclaims.

The invention creates the possibility

to set up a folding screen in one plane or to have one part, viewed from above, run at any angle < 180° to the other part.

Rotatable bearings 2;2' are arranged for connecting the struts 3. The central holder 1 is mounted on a base plate and is screwed to this base plate 4 from below using a screw 10. The base plate 4 shown in Fig. 3 is circular in shape. To lock the rotatable bearings 2;2' in the desired position, the bearings 2;2' each have a locking lever 7 in their lower area with a locking cam 6 pointing downwards, to which corresponding holes in the base plate 4 are assigned.

The bearings 2;2' are U-shaped in cross-section, with the strip-shaped locking levers 7 guided between their flanges. The Locking levers 7 are made of spring steel and are bent several times. One end part of the locking lever 7 is designed as a handle 8, while the other end part is guided under a locking bolt 9 mounted in the two flanges of the bearings 2; 2'.

As can be seen from Fig. 1, the handles 8 of the locking levers 7 are designed in such a way that they simultaneously serve as supports for the lowest struts 3, which run almost horizontally or exactly horizontally.
