Abstract

The laundry hanger made from a synthetic material, in particular polystyrene, has a double T-shaped cross-section and a vertical web wall (3), an upper bar (4) and a lower bar (5) and clips are arranged on its hanger ends (6, 7), which clips are composed in each case of an essentially rigid abutment part (8) and a resilient tongue (9), integrally connected thereto, the gap (11) between the abutment part (8) and the tongue (9) being widened in the manner of a funnel for easy insertion of an item of laundry to be clipped in. In order that even very thin items of laundry are held adequately firmly by the clip, the resilient tongue (9) is connected to the abutment part (8) via a plastic ring (10) which is moulded on, is essentially exposed, is interrupted at the gap (11) and whose cross-section is at least 100%, preferably 200% greater than the cross-section of the upper or lower bar (4, 5) of the laundry hanger, and which presses the tongue (9) with prestress against the abutment part (8). The external diameter of the plastic ring is about twice as large as its internal diameter. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Wäschebügel ,im Spritzverfahren aus Kunststoff hergestellt, dessen Querschnitt eine vertikale Wand, ein horizontales Oberwandteil und ein horizontales Unterwandteil aufweist und an dessen Bügelenden in der Ebene des Wäschebügels Klemmen angeordnet sind, die sich aus je einem im wesentlichen starren Widerlagerteil und einer einstückig damit verbundenen federnden Zunge zusammensetzen, wobei der Spalt zwischen Widerlagerteil und Zunge zum leichten Einführen eines einzuklemmenden Wäscheteils zu den Enden der Zunge und des Widerlagerteils hin trichterartig erweitert ist und die Zunge mit einer Vorspannung, die beim Erkalten einer Materialanhäufung zwischen der Zunge und dem Widerlagerteil entsteht, gegen das Widerlagerteil gedrückt ist.The invention relates to a laundry hanger, made by injection molding from plastic, the cross section of which has a vertical wall, a horizontal upper wall part and a horizontal lower wall part and at the temple ends of which are arranged in the plane of the laundry hanger clamps, each consisting of an essentially rigid abutment part and one Assemble the resilient tongue connected to it in one piece, the gap between the abutment part and tongue being funnel-shaped for easy insertion of a laundry part to be clamped in towards the ends of the tongue and the abutment part, and the tongue with a pretension that occurs when a material accumulation between the tongue and the abutment part cools down arises, is pressed against the abutment part.

Wäschebügel dieser Art sind bekannt aus der GB-A-2 200 278. Bei diesen bekannten Wäschebügeln ist der Querschnitt U-förmig und setzt sich zusammen aus einer vertikalen Wand, von der oben und unten zur gleichen Seite je ein horizontales Wandteil ausgeht. An den Bügelenden sind Klemmen angeordnet, die von federnden Zungen gebildet sind, die mit Vorspannung am Widerlagerteil anliegen. Die federnden Zungen werden im wesentlichen von einer U-förmigen Umlenkung eines horizontalen Wandteils gebildet. Der Bereich der Umlenkung ist zum großen Teil mit der vertikalen Wand verbunden. Im Bereich der Umlenkung ist zur Erzielung einer Vorspannkraft eine mit "hot spots" bezeichnete Materialanhäufung vorgesehen. Das Öffnen der Klemmen erfolgt durch elastisches Aufbiegen der federnden Zungen.Laundry hangers of this type are known from GB-A-2 200 278. In these known laundry hangers, the cross section is U-shaped and is composed of a vertical wall, from which a horizontal wall part extends from the top and bottom to the same side. Clamps are arranged on the temple ends, which are formed by resilient tongues which bear against the abutment part with pretension. The resilient tongues are essentially formed by a U-shaped deflection of a horizontal wall part. The area of the deflection is largely connected to the vertical wall. In the area of the deflection, a material accumulation called "hot spots" is provided to achieve a pretensioning force. The clamps are opened by elastic bending of the resilient tongues.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Wäschebügel zu schaffen, bei dem die Klemmen mit Vorspannung anliegende Zungen aufweisen, die sich relativ weit öffnen lassen, so daß in den Klemmen sowohl extrem dünne Wäscheteile zuverlässig gehalten werden als auch dicke Wäscheteile eingeführt werden können.The invention has for its object to provide a laundry hanger, in which the clamps have pre-tensioned tongues that can be opened relatively wide, so that extremely thin laundry items can be reliably held in the clips and thick laundry items can be inserted.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß sein Querschnitt Doppel-T-förmig ist und eine mittige vertikale Wand aufweist, und die federnde Zunge durch eine Stegwand versteift ausgebildet ist und mit dem Widerlagerteil über einen die Materialanhäufung bildenden, teilweise freiliegenden, am Spalt unterbrochenen und von der vertikalen Wand gehaltenen Kunststoffring verbunden ist, dessen Querschnitt um mindestens 100 %, vorzugsweise 200 % größer ist als der Querschnitt des Ober- oder Unterwandteiles des Wäschebügels, wobei die Dicke der in der Mittelebene dieses Ringes angeordneten vertikalen Wand kleiner ist als 1/5 der Dicke des Ringes und wobei die vertikale Wand und die Stegwand den Ring nur zu 2/3 bis 3/4 umfassen.This object is achieved in that its cross section is double-T-shaped and has a central vertical wall, and the resilient tongue is stiffened by a web wall and with the abutment part via a material accumulation, partially exposed, interrupted at the gap and is connected by the vertical wall held plastic ring, the cross section of which is at least 100%, preferably 200% larger than the cross section of the upper or lower wall part of the clothes hanger, the thickness of the vertical wall arranged in the central plane of this ring being less than 1/5 the thickness of the ring and wherein the vertical wall and the web wall comprise only 2/3 to 3/4 of the ring.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Further features of the invention emerge from the subclaims.

In der folgenden Beschreibung wird unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen eines Ausführungsbeispieles die Erfindung erläutert. Die Zeichnung zeigt in

  • Fig. 1 eine Ansicht des Wäschebügels nach der Erfindung und
  • Fig. 2 eine Ansicht nach der Schnittlinie II-II in Figur 1.
The invention is explained in the following description with reference to the drawings of an exemplary embodiment. The drawing shows in
  • Fig. 1 is a view of the clothes hanger according to the invention and
  • 2 shows a view along the section line II-II in FIG. 1.

Der dargestellte Wäschebügel hat einen Doppel-T-förmigen Querschnitt und weist eine vertikale Stegwand 3, ein horizontales Oberwandteil 4 und ein horizontales Unterwandteil 5 auf. An den Bügelenden 6 und 7 sind Klemmen angeordnet, die sich aus je einem im wesentlichen starren Widerlagerteil 8 und einer einstückig damit verbundenen federnden Zunge 9 zusammensetzen. Die Zunge 9 berührt das Widerlagerteil 8 im Bereich eines Höckers 12. Der Spalt 11 ist zum leichten Einführen eines einzuklemmenden Wäscheteils trichterartig erweitert.The laundry hanger shown has a double-T-shaped cross section and has a vertical web wall 3, a horizontal upper wall part 4 and a horizontal lower wall part 5. At the temple ends 6 and 7, clamps are arranged, each consisting of an essentially rigid abutment part 8 and a resilient tongue 9 connected to it in one piece put together. The tongue 9 touches the abutment part 8 in the area of a hump 12. The gap 11 is widened like a funnel for easy insertion of a laundry part to be clamped.

Die Zunge 9 ist mit dem Widerlagerteil 8 über einen im wesentlichen freiliegenden, am Spalt 11 unterbrochenen Kunststoffring 10 verbunden, dessen Querschnitt um mindestens 100 %, vorzugsweise um 200 % größer ist als der Querschnitt des Oberwandteils 4 oder des Unterwandteils 5.The tongue 9 is connected to the abutment part 8 via an essentially exposed plastic ring 10 interrupted at the gap 11, the cross section of which is at least 100%, preferably 200% larger than the cross section of the upper wall part 4 or the lower wall part 5.

Durch die Materialanhäufung im Kunststoffring 10 wird erreicht, daß beim noch heißen Entformen des Wäschebügels aus der Spritzform der Kunststoffring 10 am Außenmantel schneller erkaltet als im inneren Bereich und der beim Erkalten sich einstellende Schrumpfvorgang bewirkt, daß die Zunge 9 mit Vorspannung gegen den Höcker 12 des Widerlagerteiles 8 gedrückt wird.The accumulation of material in the plastic ring 10 ensures that when the laundry hanger is removed from the injection mold while it is still hot, the plastic ring 10 on the outer jacket cools down faster than in the inner region and the shrinking process that occurs when it cools down causes the tongue 9 to be biased against the hump 12 of the Abutment part 8 is pressed.

Die Spalte 11 der an den Bügelenden befindlichen Klemmen sind nach unten und außen gerichtet, so daß sich beispielsweise ein Bund einer Unterhose leicht in die Spalte 11 einführen läßt.The column 11 of the clamps located on the temple ends are directed downwards and outwards, so that, for example, a bundle of underpants can easily be inserted into the column 11.

Der Wäschebügel kann in bekannter Weise noch zusätzlich mit weiteren Klemmen versehen sein, so beispielsweise mit den Klemmzungen 15 an der Unterseite des Wäschebügels und mit federnden Zungen 16 an der Oberseite des Wäschebügels. Im Gegensatz zur Zunge 9 liegen die Zungen 15 und 16 nicht mit Vorspannung am jeweiligen Widerlager an.In a known manner, the laundry hanger can also be provided with additional clamps, for example with the clamping tongues 15 on the underside of the laundry hanger and with resilient tongues 16 on the top of the laundry hanger. In contrast to the tongue 9, the tongues 15 and 16 are not prestressed on the respective abutment.

Damit der neue Wäschebügel auch zum Aufhängen von Hemdchen und dergleichen geeignet ist, können, wie die linke Hälfte der Figur 1 zeigt, über dem freiliegenden Kunststoffring 10 Schulteransätze 17 angespritzt sein. Diese Schulteransätze 17 bewirken, daß ein Hemdchen gefälliger auf dem Wäschebügel angeordnet werden kann. Dieser Schulteransatz 17 hat ebenso wie die federnde Zunge 16 einen Querschnitt, der etwa dem des Oberwandteiles 4 entspricht.So that the new clothes hanger is also suitable for hanging up shirts and the like, 10 shoulder projections 17 can be injection molded over the exposed plastic ring, as the left half of FIG. 1 shows. This shoulder lugs 17 cause a shirt can be placed more pleasantly on the clothes hanger. This shoulder shoulder 17 also has as the resilient tongue 16 has a cross section which corresponds approximately to that of the upper wall part 4.

Die mit Vorspannung anliegende Zunge 9 ist durch eine Stegwand 18 versteift, so daß die Federwirkung allein aus dem Kunststoffring 10 kommt.The tongue 9, which rests with pretension, is stiffened by a web wall 18, so that the spring action comes solely from the plastic ring 10.

Die Vorspannung, mit welcher die Zunge 9 am Widerlagerteil 8 anliegt, wird umso größer, je dicker der Kunststoffring 10 ausgebildet ist bzw. je größer die Differenz zwischen Innendurchmesser und Außendurchmesser des Kunststoffringes 10 ist und je schneller der Außenmantel des Kunststoffringes 10 abkühlen kann. Dieses schnelle Abkühlen ist dadurch gewährleistet, daß der Ring 10 weitgehend freiliegt und nur durch die relativ dünne Stegwand 3 mit dem Wäschestück 1 verbunden ist. Ein Teil, insbesondere 1/3 bis 1/4, des Kunststoffringes 10 ist völlig frei, so daß in diesem Bereich der Ring entgegen der Vorspannung aufgebogen werden kann, so daß in den Spalt 11 nicht nur sehr dünne, sondern auch relativ dicke Wäschestücke, wie der Bund von Unterhosen oder dergleichen, eingeführt werden können. Durch eine versteifende Wand 18, die der Stegwand 3 entspricht, ist die Zunge 9 ausgesteift. Das Widerlagerteil 8 wird von dem Unterwandteil 5 umrandet und mündet in dem Kunststoffring 10.The preload with which the tongue 9 rests on the abutment part 8 is greater, the thicker the plastic ring 10 is formed or the greater the difference between the inside diameter and the outside diameter of the plastic ring 10 and the faster the outer jacket of the plastic ring 10 can cool down. This rapid cooling is ensured in that the ring 10 is largely exposed and is only connected to the item of laundry 1 by the relatively thin web wall 3. A part, in particular 1/3 to 1/4, of the plastic ring 10 is completely free, so that the ring can be bent against the bias in this area, so that not only very thin but also relatively thick items of laundry are placed in the gap 11, such as the waistband of underpants or the like, can be introduced. The tongue 9 is stiffened by a stiffening wall 18, which corresponds to the web wall 3. The abutment part 8 is surrounded by the lower wall part 5 and opens into the plastic ring 10.
