Description

Opfindelsen angår en dørmåtte, som indbefatter et antal indbyrdes parallelle staffe, mellem hvilke der er anbragt bølgeformede lameller af fleksibelt materiale, som hver ved bølgetoppe er fastgjort til en staf, og på tværs af staf-5 fene og strimlerne anbragte forbindelsesorganer.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to a door mat which includes a plurality of parallel bars, between which are arranged corrugated laminations of flexible material, each attached at a wave top to a rod, and interconnected across the rods and strips.

Sådanne dørmåtter kendes f.eks. fra beskrivelserne til dansk patent nr. 72 674 og britisk patent nr. 836.181.Such doormats are known e.g. from the descriptions of Danish Patent No. 72,674 and British Patent No. 836,181.

Ved de herfra kendte måtter er de bølgeformede lameller -i regelen gummilameller - fastgjort til staffene ved hjælp 10 af søm, skruer eller nitter, hvilket besværliggør fremstilling af måtten. Det er derfor formålet med opfindelsen at tilvejebringe en dørmåtte af den omhandlede art, som er lettere at fremstille end de kendte.By the known mats from here, the corrugated slats - usually rubber slats - are attached to the stakes by means of nails, screws or rivets, which makes the mat difficult to manufacture. It is therefore the object of the invention to provide a door mat of the kind in question which is easier to manufacture than the prior art.

Dette er ifølge opfindelsen opnået ved, at staffene 15 er udformet som en profilliste med en af opstående sideflanger afgrænset kanal, der kan optage en langsgående ribbe på den tilhørende lamel, og at lamellens bølgetoppe er fastgjort til staffene, ved at lamellens ribbe er fastklemt i den tilhørende flanges kanal ved lokal deformering 20 af sideflangerne.This is achieved according to the invention in that the staffs 15 are designed as a profile list with a channel defined by an upright side flange which can receive a longitudinal rib on the associated lamella and that the waveguide peaks are fixed to the staffs by the lamella ribs being clamped in the channel of the associated flange by local deformation 20 of the side flanges.

Profillisterne, der danner staffe, og de profilerede fleksible lameller kan let fremstilles kontinuerligt og tilskæres efter behov, og lamellerne kan uden brug af nitter forbindes med de tilhørende staffe i en ligeledes kontinuer-25 lig proces, hvor hver lamel tilføres et klemmeapparat med en sådan større hastighed end den samtidigt tilførte staf, at den antager den ønskede bølgeform, i hvilken tilstand lamellens ribbe fastklemmes ved deformering af stafkanalens sideflanger ved de mod staffen vendende bølgetoppe. Dersom 30 lamellerne i forvejen er præfabrikerede i bølgeform kan en tilsvarende fremgangsmåde anvendes ved at indføre lamel og staf med samme hastighed i klemmeapparatet.The profile molding moldings and the profiled flexible slats can be easily manufactured continuously and cut as required, and the slats can be connected to the associated staff without a rivet in an equally continuous process where each lamella is supplied with a clamping apparatus with such greater velocity than the simultaneously supplied rod, assuming the desired waveform, in which state the ribs of the slat are clamped by deformation of the lateral flanges of the rod channel at the waveguide facing tips. If the slats are already prefabricated in wave form, a similar method can be used by introducing slats and rods at the same speed into the clamping apparatus.

Ved ifølge opfindelsen at give lamellernes langsgående ribber et i hovedsagen svalehaleformet profil opnås en særlig 35 sikker fastgøring af lamellerne. En dørmåtte af den art, der har en forreste og bageste kantskinne, mellem hvilke 150007 2By providing the longitudinal ribs of the slats according to the invention with a generally dovetail-shaped profile, a particularly secure attachment of the slats is obtained. A doormat of the kind having a front and rear edge rail between which 150007 2

skinner staffene og lamellerne er fastspændt ved hjælp af en tværgående wire, der er ført gennem huller i staffene og lamellerne, kan ifølge opfindelsen udformes således, at kantskinnen indbefatter en identisk med staffene udformet liste, 5 hvis langsgående kanal vender bort fra staffene, og wiren er fastholdt i klempunkter, hvor kanalens sideflanger er deformerede. En sådan dørmåtte med kantskinner kan monteres væsentligt lettere og med mindre materialeforbrug end tilsvarende kendte måtter, hvor wirene ved hjælp af trækiler 10 er fastspændt i huller i en i kantlisten indlagt træliste.According to the invention, the rails and lamellae are clamped by a transverse wire passed through holes in the lamellae and lamellae, such that the edge rail includes an identical list of the lamellae formed 5 whose longitudinal channel faces away from the lamellae and the wire are retained at terminal points where the duct flanges of the duct are deformed. Such a door mat with edge rails can be mounted considerably easier and with less material consumption than similar known mats, where the wires are clamped in holes in a wooden strip inserted in the edge strip by means of wooden wedges 10.

I en sådan måtte ifølge opfindelsen kan kantskinnens liste hhv. staffene langs sidekanterne have langsgående riller, der kan optage indadrettede låsepartier på en rende-formet dæklistes sidevægge. Da denne dækliste ikke skal om-15 slutte nogen træliste til fastspænding af wiren, kan den gives et vilkårligt ønsket profil. F.eks. kan dens opadven-dende væg danne en skrå rampe eller påløbsflade. De langsgående noter i kantskinnens, hhv. staffenes sidekanter, er dannet mellem ribber, der medvirker til at forøge stivheden.In such a mat, according to the invention, the edge of the ridge can, respectively. the staff along the side edges have longitudinal grooves that can accommodate inwardly locking portions on the sidewalls of a gutter-shaped deck strip. Since this deck list does not have to include any wooden strip for clamping the wire, it can be given any desired profile. Eg. For example, its upwardly facing wall may form an inclined ramp or mounting surface. The longitudinal notes in the edge rail, respectively. the side edges of the staff are formed between ribs which help to increase the stiffness.

20 Opfindelsen angår også fremgangsmåder til fremstilling af dørmåtten, hvilke fremgangsmåder er ejendommelige ved, de i krav 6 og 7 angivne træk.The invention also relates to methods of making the doormat which are characterized by the features of claims 6 and 7.

Opfindelsen forklares nærmere i det følgende under henvisning til tegningen, hvor 25 fig. 1 viser en staf til dørmåtten ifølge opfindelsen, fig. 2 en gummilamel til måtten, fig. 3 en staf med påmonteret lamel set fra siden, fig. 4 en del af staffen i fig. 3 set ovenfra med lamellen fjernet, 30 fig. 5 en staf, der indgår som en liste i måttens kantskinne, set ind mod kanten af måtten og vist uden dækskinne, fig. 6 et hjørne af den samlede måtte, fig. 7 en dækliste til måttens kantskinner, og 35 fig. 8 et tværsnit i en alternativ udførelsesform for dæklisten.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing, in which FIG. 1 shows a rod for the doormat according to the invention; FIG. 2 shows a rubber mat for the mat; FIG. 3 is a side view of a staff with mounted lamella; FIG. 4 shows part of the staff of FIG. 3 is a top view with the slat removed, FIG. 5 shows a staff included as a list in the edge of the mat, facing towards the edge of the mat and shown without a cover; FIG. 6 is a corner of the assembled mat; FIG. 7 is a cover strip for the edge rails of the mat; and FIG. 8 is a cross-section in an alternative embodiment of the deck list.

Den i fig. 1 viste staf 1 er profileret, så den har en af sideflanger 2 afgrænset, opad åben kanal 3, der kan optage en fremspringende ribbe 5 på den i fig. 2 viste gummilamel 4. Gummilisten 4 skydes således sammen i staffens 5 længderetning, at den antager bølgeform (fig. 3) med frie bølgetoppe 6 og mellemliggende bølgetoppe 7, der fastgøres til staffen ved at sideflangerne 2 ved klemsteder 8 deformeres, så de klemmer fast omkring gummilamellens ribbe 5.The FIG. 1 is profiled so that it has one upwardly open channel 3 defined by side flanges 2 capable of accommodating a protruding rib 5 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the rubber strip 4 is pushed together in the longitudinal direction of the staff 5 to assume waveform (Fig. 3) with free wave peaks 6 and intermediate wave peaks 7, which are attached to the staff by deforming the side flanges 2 at terminal 8. around the rib of the rubber lamella 5.

For at sikre fastholdelsen er ribben 5 fortrinsvis udformet 10 med det viste svalehaleformede tværsnit.In order to ensure the retention, the rib 5 is preferably formed 10 with the dovetail-shaped cross-section shown.

Staffene 1 og lamellerne 4, der naturligvis også kan fremstilles af andet fleksibelt materiale end gummi, kan let forbindes med hinanden i en kontinuerlig proces, hvor de sammen skydes ind i et klemmeapparat, i hvilket sideflan-15 gerne 2 på klemstederne 8 presses indad, som vist i fig. 4, samtidig med at bølgetoppene 7 holdes ned mod staffen af et dertil egnet trykorgan. Ved at indføre lamellen 4 i appa-ratet med en passende større hastighed end staffen 1, kan den ønskede størrelse af bølgerne opnås. Der er herved til-20 vejebragt en hurtig og simpel fremgangsmåde til fremstilling af en dørmåtte som vist i fig. 6, idet staffe og lameller afskæres i den i hvert enkelt tilfælde ønskede længde.The posts 1 and the slats 4, which can of course also be made of a flexible material other than rubber, can be easily connected to one another in a continuous process where they are pushed together into a clamping device, in which the side flanges 2 of the clamping points 8 are pressed inwards. as shown in FIG. 4, while holding the peaks 7 down against the staff by a suitable pressure means. By inserting the slat 4 into the apparatus at a suitably greater speed than the staff 1, the desired magnitude of the waves can be obtained. Hereby, a quick and simple method of making a door mat as shown in FIG. 6, with cutters and slats cut to the desired length in each case.

De kombinerede stænger bestående af staffe med tilhørende lameller holdes sammen i måtten ved hjælp af en 25 wire 10, som strækker sig i stængernes tværretning og er ført gennem indbyrdes flugtende huller 12 i disse i nærheden af måttens ender og eventuelt på passende steder mellem disse.The combined rods of staff and associated slats are held together in the mat by means of a 25 wire 10 extending in the transverse direction of the rods and passed through mutually flushing holes 12 therein near the ends of the mat and, optionally, between them.

Parallelt med staffen bærer måtten en forreste og 30 en bageste kantskinne, der hver indbefatter en staf 1, og en rendeformet dækliste 13, hvis sidevægge har indadrettede låseribber 14, der er skudt ind i langsgående noter 9 på staffens sidekanter.Parallel to the staff, the mat carries a front and a rear edge rail, each including a staff 1, and a gutter cover 13, the side walls of which have inwardly locking ribs 14 inserted into longitudinal grooves 9 on the side edges of the staff.

Enderne af wiren 10, der holder staffene sammenøer 35 fastgjort til staffen 1 i den ene af kantskinnerne på den i fig. 5 viste måde. Det ses, at wiren 10, der skal føresThe ends of the wire 10 holding the posts together 35 are attached to the posts 1 in one of the edge rails of the one shown in FIG. 5. It is seen that the wire 10 to be guided

150007 4 gennem hullet 12 simpelt hen er fastholdt i klempunkter 11, der er dannet ved deformering af staffens sideflanger 2. Der er herved opnået en sikker og bekvem fastgøring af wiren uden brug af særlige holdeorganer, såsom trælister med hul-5 ler, hvori wiren fastholdes ved hjælp af trækiler, således som det hidtil har været almindeligt. Det er derfor muligt at udforme dæklisten med et mindre tværsnit end vist i fig.150007 4 through the hole 12 is simply retained at terminal points 11 formed by deformation of the side flanges of the staff 2, thereby providing a secure and convenient attachment of the wire without the use of special holding means such as wooden moldings with holes in which the wire are retained by means of wooden wedges, as has hitherto been common. It is therefore possible to design the cover strip with a smaller cross-section than shown in fig.

7, f.eks. med et tværsnit som vist i fig. 8, hvor oversiden af dæklisten 15 danner en skrå rampe eller påløbsflade, der 10 letter opkørsel af barnevogne og kørestole og er til mindre gene for gående.7, e.g. with a cross section as shown in FIG. 8, where the top of the deck strip 15 forms a sloping ramp or tread surface, which 10 facilitates the pushing of strollers and wheelchairs and is to the lesser disadvantage of walking.

Det vil forstås, at der indenfor opfindelsens rammer kan udføres forskellige modifikationer af dørmåtten ifølge opfindelsen. F.eks. kan lamellerne i forvejen være støbt i 15 bølgeform, selv om de forbindes med staffens på tilsvarende måde, som foran beskrevet. Ligeledes kan stængerne, der består af lameller og staffe også forbindes indbyrdes på anden måde end med den viste wire, og kantskinnens dækliste kan være udformet og fastgjort på andre måder end foran be-20 skrevet. Selv om det af hensyn til afskrabningsvirkningen i reglen foretrækkes at lamellerne 4 kun er fastholdt ved de i én retning vendende bølgetoppe, kan staffene dog også tænkes udformet med kanaler til fastgørelse af lameller på begge sider, således at alle bølgetoppe kan fastholdes.It will be appreciated that various modifications of the doormat according to the invention may be made within the scope of the invention. Eg. For example, the slats may already be cast in wave form, although they may be connected to the staff in a similar manner as described above. Likewise, the bars consisting of slats and stakes may also be interconnected by other means than with the wire shown, and the edge strip of the edge rail may be formed and secured in other ways than previously described. However, although, for reasons of scraping action, it is preferable that the slats 4 are held only by the one-way wave peaks, however, the stakes can also be conceived with channels for fixing slats on both sides so that all the wave peaks can be held.
