Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rod guide for the rod closure of control cabinet doors or the like, which is fastened to the inside wall of the door and forms an axial guide for the rod at a distance from the wall.
  • Such a rod guide is already known from DE-Gbm 76 21 270, see FIGS. 1 and 2, which were taken from this document.
  • Rod locks of the type shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 serve, for example, to lock the doors of sheet metal cabinets, in particular control cabinets, not only at the level of the closing part, but also at the top and bottom when the door is closed, so as to improve the closing of single-leaf doors and in the case of double-leaf doors, a separate locking of the second leaf can be dispensed with in that the door leaf provided with the rod lock also holds the other door leaf in the closed position.
  • Welding the relatively thin sheet metal of the door can lead to warping of the sheet, even with spot welding, and the welding heat also leads to optical changes in the outer surface of the control cabinet door, so that either a disruptive appearance results or the surface of the control cabinet door is reworked got to.
  • the visible head 44 of the rod guide 40 can also interfere.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a rod guide for the rod closure described, which no longer has these disadvantages, without the outlay being greater than in the prior art.
  • the fastening of the rod guide by means of welding bolts is particularly advantageous because the welding bolt technology does not lead to any visual changes in the outer surface of the door panel, since only a relatively superficial area of the inside of the door is melted for a very short time, with the heat no longer being able to find the time opposite Penetrate the surface of the sheet and lead there to optical changes.
  • Another advantage of welding stud technology is that warping cannot occur.
  • the rod guide can consist of a plastic block with a threaded hole, by means of which the block can be screwed onto only one welding stud.
  • a threaded metal part can also be inserted into the plastic block.
  • two opposing nose parts will advantageously be provided, possibly also further nose parts. To make it easier to attach, it is also beneficial to tip the head.
  • the weld stud could be perforated. e.g. B. thread, and the injection molded plastic rod guide, which in turn has a cooling for receiving the welding stud, be provided with two spring-like, embedded in the plastic opposite locations sheet metal strips that protrude so obliquely inwards into the cavity that they result in a blockage when the rod guide is placed on the welding stud by snapping into the teeth.
  • the rod guide is made of plastic results in a desired automatic sliding action for the rod and also a desired reduction in noise.
  • the rod closure consists of a closing part 10 to which a bracket 12 is fastened by means of welding or screwing 14. The ends of the bracket are welded to the door leaf 16 at two points 18.
  • the closing part 10 keeps a certain distance from the door leaf 16, so that an actuating arches 20 projecting from the closing part does not protrude beyond the door leaf 15.
  • This square 20 can through a punch hole 22 in the door leaf z. B. by means of a handle element (not shown).
  • two rods 28, 30 with a round cross-section are attached, which extend to approximately the upper or lower end 32 of the door leaf 16 and there with a closed door Nose or web 34 of the door housing 36 engage.
  • the rod is guided at the upper (not shown) and lower end of the door leaf 16 through a rod guide 40 which, according to FIG. 1, is welded to the door leaf at points 42.
  • the rod guide 40 consists of a screw 44, which is passed through a hole in the door leaf 16, which corresponds in its profile to the hole 20, and is fastened with a nut 46.
  • the actuating square 20 is rotated, as a result of which not only a locking bolt moves out and in of the locking part 10, but also the rods 28 and 30 are displaced in the axial direction.
  • the rod 28 is pushed downward and the idler roller 38 is brought over the web 34, as a result of which an inwardly jumping edge of the door leaf presses against the frame.
  • FIGS. 3a now shows in a detailed view the lower end of the rod closure shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 with a novel rod guide, which is shown again from above or from the right in FIGS. 3b and 3c.
  • the novel rod guide consists of a block 46 made of preferably plastic, which has an opening 48 for the rod 28, which here has a round cross section and is intended to guide round rods.
  • an opening 48 for the rod 28 which here has a round cross section and is intended to guide round rods.
  • This goblet-like widening which bears the reference number 50, allows the rod 28 a limited pivoting movement within the guide formed by the opening 43, whereby jamming of the rod 28 is reliably prevented without accepting greater play, even when the rod 28 skewed.
  • the block 46 is rectangular or square in the area of the opening 48 (head part 52) with rounded edges.
  • the foot part 54 with which the block 46 rests on the inner surface 56 of the door leaf 16, is round in cross section, on the other hand, which enables better tilting moment support, see FIG. 3c.
  • the foot part 54 has a bore 58 into which a thread is cast, cut or constrained or into which a threaded bushing can also be injected.
  • a nut-like part is provided, which can be inserted into a corresponding radial opening in the block. This embodiment is particularly efficient to produce and stable.
  • the block 46 can be welded onto a screw bolt 64 by means of welding bolt technology on the inner surface 56 of the door leaf 16, the area liquefied during the welding (see the area marked black marked 66) ) does not penetrate the wall thickness of the door leaf 16, so that discoloration of the outer surface of the door leaf does not occur.
  • the welding bolt 64 can thus also be fastened to the door leaf by means of the welding bolt method, for example even after the door leaf 16 has been painted, and the block 46 can then be screwed on to form the rod guide 40.
  • foot 54 has an undercut 68, as a result of which foot edge 70 receives a certain spring effect. This makes it easier to align the block 46, which acts like a nut, in such a way that the opening 48 comes to lie in the direction of the rod 28, without the "screw" on the plate 56 being located). oaer is too tight.
  • the undercut also enables a secure fit, if welding material residues impede the secure contact due to welding around the weld stud base.
  • the plastic material itself has a certain flexibility, so that u. U. the undercut 68 can also be omitted, as shown in FIG. 6a, for example.
  • FIG. 4a, 4b and 4c a similar embodiment is shown, but the opening 48 is shaped somewhat differently, so that a rod 28 which is somewhat flattened at the lower end for the purpose of better attachment of the idler roller 38 can be pushed through without difficulty.
  • a rectangular extension 72 is used for this purpose, the dimensions of which correspond to those of the cross section of the flattened end of the rod 28 (not shown).
  • the cross-section of this rectangular extension 72 can also be chosen so large that even the impeller 38 fits through it, so that the impeller does not have to be retrofitted.
  • the rod guide can also be fastened in another way by means of a welding bolt, as shown in FIGS. 6, 7 and 8.
  • a rod guide 40 can be seen which cannot be screwed onto a welding stud 164, but rather is plugged on.
  • the welding stud 164 is not provided with a thread, but instead has an annular depression 76 at its free end, so that a head 78 with shoulders 80 is formed.
  • the block 46 in turn has a cavity 158 for receiving the welding stud and two opposing nose parts 74 which protrude into this cavity 158 so resiliently that they come to rest behind the ring shoulder 80 when the rod guide is placed on the welding stud 164, as in FIG 6a can be seen.
  • the spring action for the nose 74 can be produced in that these lugs 74 are attached to a web 82 which is made by a U-shaped notch 84 in the intermediate cavity 158 and the outer surface of the block 46 wall.
  • FIG. 7 shows yet another embodiment in which the welding stud 264 has teeth 86, for example a thread, as is also the case with the welding stud shown in FIG. 3a.
  • teeth 86 for example a thread
  • spring-like metal sheet strips 88 which are embedded in the plastic of the block 46, engage in the teeth when the block 46 is plugged on and are injected into the plastic in such a way that they protrude obliquely into the cavity 258, that when the rod guide 40 is plugged onto the welding bolt 264, they insert into the teeth 86 in a blocking manner and thereby prevent the block 46 from sliding off the welding bolt 264 again.
  • FIG. 8 A still further embodiment is shown in FIG. 8, in which the rod guide 40 forms a truncated cone 90 on its side facing the cabinet wall 56, which is supported in a ring 92 with a suitably conical inner surface 94, which in turn is supported on the inner surface 56 of the door leaf 16 .
  • the truncated cone 90 has a cavity 358, which can be designed similarly to the embodiment of FIG. 3a, but in particular has a cast-in, incised or constrained thread or contains an injected threaded bushing.
