Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Grundelement für die Herstellung großflächiger Platten für Baukastensysteme.The present invention relates to a basic element for the production of large-area panels for modular systems.
Es sind die unterschiedlichsten Baukastensysteme für Kinder, auch solche mit großflächigen Teilen, bekannt. Entweder sind jedoch die Formkosten bei exakter Herstellung der notwendigen unterschiedlichen großflächigen Teile unwirtschaftlich hoch, oder diese Teile halten bei nicht exakter Formgebung durch billigere Verfahren, wie Formblasen, in zusammengebautem Zustand sehr schlecht.A wide variety of modular systems for children, including those with large parts, are known. However, either the molding costs are uneconomically high when the necessary different large-area parts are produced precisely, or these parts hold very poorly in the assembled state if they are not precisely shaped by cheaper methods such as blow molding.
Das DE-U-7 007 072 beschreibt einen Bauteilsatz für Spielzwecke, darunter verschieden lange, als Vierkantleisten ausgebildete Elemente mit quadratischen Durchbrüchen, welche voneinander einen Abstand haben, der einer Seitenlänge, dieser quadratischen Durchbrüche entspricht. Diese Vierkantleisten können durch Verbindungselemente miteinander verbunden werden.DE-U-7 007 072 describes a set of components for playing purposes, including elements of different lengths, designed as square strips, with square openings which are at a distance from one another which corresponds to a side length of these square openings. These square strips can be connected to one another by connecting elements.
Die DE-A-30 15 697 beschreibt einen Bausatz zum Zusammenbauen von Spielmodellen, bestehend aus quaderförmigen Spielbauteilen, welche aus zwei Halbschalen zusammengesetzt sind.DE-A-30 15 697 describes a kit for assembling game models, consisting of cuboid game components which are composed of two half-shells.
Die Halbschalen werden in geeigneter Weise, beispielsweise durch Schweißen, Kleben oder Klipsen zu einem Bauteil zusammengefügt. Die Halbschalen bilden jedoch kein Grundelement zur Herstellung von Platten, sondern lediglich Halbzeuge für ein einziges Spielbauteil.The half-shells are combined in a suitable manner, for example by welding, gluing or clipping, to form a component. However, the half-shells do not form a basic element for the production of boards, but only semi-finished products for a single toy component.
Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Grundelement für die Herstellung großflächiger Platten für ein Baukastensystem, insbesondere für ein Steckbausteinsystem. Dieses Grundelement soll bei geringen Herstellungskosten die Erzeugung von Platten unterschiedlicher Größe gestatten, welche quadratische Durchbrüche in sinnvoller Anordung aufweisen.The aim of the present invention is a basic element for the production of large-area panels for a modular system, in particular for a plug-in module system. This basic element is intended to allow the production of plates of different sizes at low manufacturing costs, which have square openings in a sensible arrangement.
Dieses Ziel wird mit einem Grundelement gemäß den Patentansprüchen erreicht.This goal is achieved with a basic element according to the patent claims.
Demgemäß wird ein Grundelement von rechteckiger Gestalt mit einem Hohlkörper vorgeschlagen, der eine rechteckige Fläche und vertikale, von der Rechteckfläche sich senkrecht erstreckende Seitenkanten aufweist, die einen offenen und rechteckigen Raum zwischen sich begrenzen, wobei das Grundelement mit einem oder mehreren gleichartigen Grundelementen an den Seitenkanten verbunden werden kann, indem diese Grundelemente mit ihren offenen Seiten aufeinandergelegt werden und durch Schweißen, Kleben, Stecken, Schrauben oder auf andere geeignete Weise zu an den Stirnseiten allseitig geschlossenen Platten zusammengefügt werden können zur Herstellung von Platten für ein Baukastensystem, wobei das Grundelement mindestens acht Durchbrüche in der Rechteckfläche aufweist, die um die Entfernung a voneinander beabstandet und in einem rechteckigen Feld von wenigstens zwei Reihen von mindestens vier Durchbrüchen nebeneinander angeordnet sind, die Durchbrüche quadratisch sind und eine Seitenlänge entsprechend der Entfernung a aufweisen und der Abstand zu den äußeren Begrenzungen des Grundelements halb so groß ist wie der Abstand a zwischen den Durchbrüchen untereinander.Accordingly, a basic element of rectangular shape with a hollow body is proposed which has a rectangular surface and vertical side edges which extend perpendicularly from the rectangular surface and which delimit an open and rectangular space between them, the basic element having one or more similar basic elements on the side edges can be connected by placing these basic elements on top of one another with their open sides and by welding, gluing, plugging, screwing or in some other suitable manner to form panels which are closed on all sides at the end faces for the production of panels for a modular system, the basic element being at least eight Has openings in the rectangular area, which are spaced apart by the distance a and arranged side by side in a rectangular field of at least two rows of at least four openings, the openings are square and a side length have lengths corresponding to the distance a and the distance to the outer boundaries of the base element is half as large as the distance a between the openings.
In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung weisen auch die Durchbrüche sich senkrecht von der Rechteckfläche erstreckende Seitenkanten auf, die bis in die Ebene der offenen Rechteckfläche des Hohlkörpers reichen.In an advantageous development, the openings also have side edges which extend perpendicularly from the rectangular surface and extend into the plane of the open rectangular surface of the hollow body.
Das Grundelement kann so ausgebildet sein, daß seine Dicke gleich dem Abstand der Durchbrüche zu der äußeren Begrenzung, also a/2 ist, so daß die zusammengefügten Grundelemente eine Plattendicke gleich dem Abstand der Durchbrüche voneinander, also von a ergeben.The basic element can be designed in such a way that its thickness is equal to the distance between the openings and the outer boundary, that is to say a / 2, so that the combined basic elements give a plate thickness equal to the distance between the openings from one another, that is to say a.
Ein gleichermaßen bevorzugtes Grundelement ist so gestaltet, daß seine Dicke gleich dem Abstand der Durchbrüche voneinander, also gleich a ist, so daß die zusammengefügten Grundelemente eine Plattendicke von 2a ergeben.An equally preferred basic element is designed in such a way that its thickness is equal to the spacing of the openings from one another, that is to say equal to a, so that the combined basic elements result in a plate thickness of 2a.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Herstellung von Platten wird auch bei unterschiedlichster Plattengröße jeweils nur ein Formwerkzeug für das Grundelement benötigt, da dieses Grundelement unter entsprechender Anordnung der Durchbrüche mit anderen Grundelementen zu allseitig geschlossenen Platten zusammengefügt werden kann.In the production of plates according to the invention, only one molding tool is required for the base element, even with the most varied plate size, since this base element can be joined together with other base elements to form plates which are closed on all sides, with the openings being arranged accordingly.
Das Zusammenfügen der Grundelemente kann durch Schweißen, Kleben, Stecken, Schrauben oder auf andere geeignete Weise erfolgen.The basic elements can be joined together by welding, gluing, plugging, screwing or in another suitable manner.
Die Figuren 1 bis 7 zeigen das erfindungsgemäße Grundelement und daraus hergestellte Platten.Figures 1 to 7 show the basic element according to the invention and plates made therefrom.
Die Erfindung wird durch die Zeichnung näher erläutert.
Figur 1- zeigt das Grundelement in der Perspektive mit acht quadratischen Durchbrüchen und in der Ansicht von der geschlossenen Seite. Das Grundelement hat die Länge L, die Breite B und die Dicke h₁. Der Abstand der Durchbrüche voneinander beträgt a und der Abstand der Durchbrüche zu den äußeren Begrenzungen a/2.
Figur 2- zeigt einen Schnitt durch das Grundelement an der Stelle der Durchbrüche.
- Figur 3
- zeigt einen Schnitt durch zwei spiegelbildlich an den offenen Flächen aneinandergeschweißte oder geklebte Grundelemente l, lʹ an der Stelle der Durchbrüche.
- Figure 1
- shows the basic element in perspective with eight square openings and in the view from the closed side. The basic element has the length L, the width B and the
thickness h 1. The distance between the openings is a and the distance between the openings and the outer boundaries is a / 2. - Figure 2
- shows a section through the basic element at the location of the openings.
- Figure 3
- shows a section through two mirror-image welded or glued basic elements l, lʹ at the location of the openings on the open surfaces.
Wie man erkennt, können erfindungsgemäß gestaltete Grundelemente durch Zusammenfügen ihrer offenen Flächen aneinander auf die folgende Art und Weise zu großflächigen Platten der unterschiedlichsten Gestalt zusammengefügt werden:
- l. spiegelbildlich
- 2. spiegelbildlich mit Versatz
- 3. spiegelbildlich mit Versatz und Drehung im rechten Winkel.
- l. mirror image
- 2. mirror image with offset
- 3. mirror image with offset and rotation at right angles.
Diese Platten können mittels quadratischer bzw. runder Achsen oder mittels spezieller Verbindungselemente miteinander verbaut werden.
- Figur 4
- zeigt zwei Grundelemente l, lʹ, welche mit ihren offenen Seiten spiegelbildlich zusammengefügt sind. Diese Grundelemente haben 4 × 2 = 8 Durchbrüche. Da der quadratische Durchbruch das Maß a × a hat, errechnet sich die Länge L des Grundelements wie folgt:
4 × Durchbrüche von der Kantenlänge a = 4a
+ 3 × Abstand zwischen den Durchbrüchen vom Betrag a = 3a
+ 2 × Abstand zu den äußeren Begrenzungen vom Betrag a/2 = a,
Länge l des Grundelementes mit 8 Durchbrüchen somit = 8a.
Die Breite b des Grundelementes errechnet sich folgendermaßen:
2 × Durchbrüche vom Maße a = 2a
+ l × Abstand zwischen den Durchbrüchen vom Betrag a = la
+ 2 × Abstand zu den äußeren Begrenzungen vom Betrag a/2 = la,
Breite b des Grundelementes mit 8 Durchbrüchen somit 4a.
Bei einer Dicke h₁ des Grundelementes von a/2 betragen somit die Abmessungen eines Grundelementes mit 4 × 2 = 8 Durchbrüchen L × b × h₁ = 8a × 4a × a/2.
Fügt man zwei Grundelemente zu einer Platte mit 8 Durchbrüchen zusammen (s. Figur 4), so hat die Platte die Abmessungen 8a × 4a × a. - Figur 5
- zeigt eine Platte mit 4 × 4 = l6 Durchbrüchen, zusammengefügt aus vier gleichartigen Grundelementen l, lʹ, lʺ, l‴.
Diese Platte hat dann die Abmessungen 8a × 8a × a. - Figur 6
- zeigt zwei Grundelemente 2, 2ʹ, welche mit ihren offenen Seiten spiegelbildlich zusammengefügt sind. Diese Grundelemente haben 6 × 3 = l8 Durchbrüche.
Da die quadratischen Durchbrüche das Maß a × a haben, ergeben sich für dieaus den Grundelementen 2, 2ʹ zusammengefügte Platte die Abmessungen l2a × 6a × a. - Figur 7
- zeigt eine Platte mit 6 × 6 = 36 Durchbrüchen, zusammengefügt aus 4
gleichartigen Grundelementen 2, 2ʹ, 2ʺ, 2‴.
Diese Platte hat dann die Abmessungen l2a × l2a × a.
- Figure 4
- shows two basic elements l, lʹ, which are joined together with their open sides in mirror image. These basic elements have 4 × 2 = 8 breakthroughs. Since the square opening has the dimension a × a, the length L of the basic element is calculated as follows:
4 × breakthroughs with the edge length a = 4a
+ 3 × distance between the breakthroughs of the amount a = 3a
+ 2 × distance to the outer limits of the amount a / 2 = a,
Length l of the basic element with 8 openings = 8a.
The width b of the basic element is calculated as follows:
2 × openings of dimension a = 2a
+ l × distance between the breakthroughs of the amount a = la
+ 2 × distance to the outer limits of the amount a / 2 = la,
Width b of the basic element with 8 openings thus 4a.
With athickness h 1 of the basic element of a / 2, the dimensions of a basic element with 4 × 2 = 8 openings are L × b ×h 1 = 8a × 4a × a / 2.
If two basic elements are combined to form a plate with 8 openings (see FIG. 4), the plate has the dimensions 8a × 4a × a. - Figure 5
- shows a plate with 4 × 4 = l6 openings, assembled from four similar basic elements l, lʹ, lʺ, l ‴.
This plate then has the dimensions 8a × 8a × a. - Figure 6
- shows two
basic elements 2, 2ʹ, which are joined together with their open sides in mirror image. These basic elements have 6 × 3 = 18 breakthroughs.
Since the square openings have the dimension a × a, the dimensions l2a × 6a × a result for the plate assembled from thebasic elements 2, 2ʹ. - Figure 7
- shows a plate with 6 × 6 = 36 openings, assembled from 4 similar
basic elements 2, 2ʹ, 2ʺ, 2 ‴.
This plate then has the dimensions l2a × l2a × a.
Erfindungswesentlich ist, daß die Längen des Grundelements immer ein ganzes Vielfaches, jedoch mindestens das zweifache der Breiten des Grundelementes sind.It is essential to the invention that the lengths of the basic element are always a whole multiple, but at least twice the widths of the basic element.
Zum Beispiel: L : b = 2 : l
und daß bei Drehung der Grundelemente untereinander im rechten Winkel oder bei Versatz die Durchbrüche deckungsgleich bei bündiger Außenkontur der zusammengefügten Platten sind.For example: L: b = 2: l
and that when the basic elements are rotated at right angles to one another or in the event of an offset, the openings are congruent with a flush outer contour of the assembled plates.
Diese Deckungsgleichheit der Durchbrüche wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß der Abstand a der Durchbrüche gleich der Seitenlänge des Querschnittes a x a ist und daß der Abstand der Durchbrüche zu den äußeren Begrenzungen des Grundelementes gleich a/2 ist.This congruence of the breakthroughs is achieved according to the invention in that the spacing a of the breakthroughs is equal to the side length of the cross section a x a and that the spacing of the breakthroughs to the outer boundaries of the basic element is equal to a / 2.
Somit ist es immer möglich, beliebig große Platten aus gleich großen Grundelementen zusammenzufügen; bei einem Längen/Breiten-Verhältnis des Grundelementes von 2 : 1.It is therefore always possible to join panels of any size from basic elements of the same size; with a length / width ratio of the basic element of 2: 1.
Die in den Figuren 4 bis 7 gezeigten Platten lassen sich z.B. sinnvoll kombinieren mit Steckbausteinen nach der DE-B-21 61 913.The plates shown in Figures 4 to 7 can e.g. usefully combine with plug-in modules according to DE-B-21 61 913.
Unter Berücksichtigung gewisser Verhältnisse zwischen den Abmessungen und den Durchbrüchen ergeben sich optimale Kombinationsmöglichkeiten des Grundelementes unter Erzielung unterschiedlich großer Platten, und gleichzeitig wird sichergestellt, daß die daraus entstandenen Platten miteinander verbaut werden können.Taking into account certain relationships between the dimensions and the openings, there are optimal possible combinations of the basic element to achieve panels of different sizes, and at the same time it is ensured that the resulting panels can be installed together.
Dies wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß der Abstand der Durchbrüche untereinander a doppelt so groß ist wie der Abstand a/2 zu den äußeren Begrenzungen des Grundelementes (s. Figur 1).This is achieved according to the invention in that the distance between the openings a is twice as large as the distance a / 2 from the outer boundaries of the basic element (see FIG. 1).
Grundsätzlich gelten die gleichen Vorteile und Möglichkeiten, wenn die Durchbrüche kreisförmig sind oder eine andere beliebige Form haben (z.B. sternförmig sind mit 4 oder 8 Strahlen).Basically, the same advantages and options apply if the openings are circular or have any other shape (e.g. star-shaped with 4 or 8 beams).
