Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Aufhängebschlag für Hängeschränke nach dem Oberbegriff des Ansprüches 1.The invention relates to a suspension bracket for wall cabinets according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aus der DE-A1-29 42 946 ist ein derartiger Aufhängebeschlag bekannt, bei dem die Seitenkanten des Beschlaggehäuses mit Bohrungen versehen sind, die zur Aufnahme von Befestigungsschrauben dienen. Das Beschlaggehäuse ist mittels dieser Befestigungsschrauben mit der Unterseite des Ober­boden und der Innenseite der benachbarten Seitenwandung verbunden. Ein derartig ausgebildeter Aufhängebeschlag erfordert eine zeitaufwendige Montage und weist eine geringe Festigkeit der Halterung des Beschlag­gehäuses auf.Such a suspension fitting is known from DE-A1-29 42 946, in which the side edges of the fitting housing are provided with bores which serve to receive fastening screws. The fitting housing is connected to the underside of the top shelf and the inside of the adjacent side wall by means of these fastening screws. A suspension fitting designed in this way requires time-consuming assembly and has a low strength of the bracket of the fitting housing.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist die Schaffung eines Aufhängebeschlages, der einfach am Oberboden und der Seitenwandung befestigbar ist. Eine aus­reichende Festigkeit in der Verbindung mit diesen Teilen aufweist, und weitgehend vermeidet, daß zu große Belastungskräfte auf den Oberboden übertragen werden.The object of the invention is to provide a hanging fitting that can be easily attached to the top panel and the side wall. Has sufficient strength in connection with these parts, and largely avoids that excessive loads are transmitted to the top floor.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe gemäß der Erfindung ist dem kennzeichneten Teil des Anspruches 1 zu entnehmen.The achievement of the object according to the invention can be found in the marked part of claim 1.

Ein nach der Erfindung ausgebildeter Aufhängebeschlag weist den Vorteil auf, daß die Befestigung am Oberboden und an der Seitenwandung ohne zu­sätzliche Befestigungsmittel erfolgen kann. Die Zapfen können in ein­facher Weise in die Bohrungen der Wandungsteile eingeschoben werden. Die Bohrungen für die Zapfen lassen sich maschinell im Durchlaufverfahren herstellen. Durch die Vielzahl der Bohrungen wird eine gute Kraftüber­tragung auf die Seitenwand und eine Entlastung des Oberboden erreicht.A suspension fitting designed according to the invention has the advantage that it can be fastened to the upper floor and to the side wall without additional fastening means. The pins can be easily inserted into the holes in the wall parts. The holes for the pins can be machined in a continuous process. The large number of holes ensures good power transmission to the side wall and relief of the top panel.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteran­sprüchen angegeben.Further advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

Die Erfindung ist nachfolgend an Hand der Zeichnungen erläutert.

  • Fig. 1 zeigt einen erfindungsgemäßen Aufhängebeschlag in perspekti­vischer Ansicht mit der Rückseite des Eckbereiches eines Schrankgehäuses.
  • Fig. 2 die Anordnung der Bohrungen und der Nut für die Schrankrück­wand.
  • Fig. 3 eine Ausführungsform des Beschlaggehäuses mit herausgepräg­ten Zapfen.
  • Fig. 4 die Anordnung von Sicherungsteilen in den Zapfenbohrungen.
The invention is explained below with reference to the drawings.
  • Fig. 1 shows a suspension fitting according to the invention in a perspective view with the back of the corner area of a cabinet housing.
  • Fig. 2 shows the arrangement of the holes and the groove for the cabinet rear wall.
  • Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of the fitting housing with a protruding pin.
  • Fig. 4 shows the arrangement of securing parts in the pin holes.

Der erfindungsgemäße Aufhängebeschlag besteht aus einem Beschlagge­häuse 1, das dreieckförmig ausgebildet ist. Im Beschlaggehäuse 1 ist die Verstelleinrichtung 2 angeordnet, die zur Höhen- und Abstands­verstellung zur Wand dient. Die Bedienung der Verstelleinrichtung 2 erfolgt durch eine Öffnung 3 in der Rückwand 4.The suspension fitting according to the invention consists of a fitting housing 1, which is triangular. In the fitting housing 1, the adjusting device 2 is arranged, which is used for height and distance adjustment to the wall. The adjustment device 2 is operated through an opening 3 in the rear wall 4.

Gemäß der Erfindung sind an den Seitenkanten 5 und 6 des Beschlagge­häuses 1 Zapfen 7 angeordnet, die in Bohrungen 8 der Unterseite des Oberboden 9 und der Innenseite der Seitenwandung 10 einschiebbar sind. Die Bohrungen 8 sind unmittelbar neben der Nut 11 für die Rückwand 4 im Oberboden 9 und der Seitenwandung 10 angebracht und tangieren teil­weise die Nut.According to the invention, pins 7 are arranged on the side edges 5 and 6 of the fitting housing 1 and can be inserted into bores 8 in the underside of the upper floor 9 and the inside of the side wall 10. The holes 8 are located directly next to the groove 11 for the rear wall 4 in the top floor 9 and the side wall 10 and partially affect the groove.

Wie in Fig. 2 dargestellt, sind die Bohrungen 8 tiefer als die Nut 11. Zweckmäßigerweise weisen sie die doppelte Tiefe auf.As shown in Fig. 2, the bores 8 are deeper than the groove 11. They are expediently twice the depth.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine Ausführung des Aufhängebeschlages, bei der die Za­pfen 7 aus aus den Seitenkanten des Blechgehäuses herausgeprägten, halbkreisförmigen, umgebördelten Laschen bestehen. Die Zapfen 7 sind halbkreisförmig ausgebildet,wie in Fig. 4 perspektivisch dargestellt.Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of the suspension fitting, in which the pin 7 consist of embossed, semicircular, flanged tabs embossed from the side edges of the sheet metal housing. The pins 7 are semicircular, as shown in perspective in FIG. 4.

Fig. 4 zeigt außerdem, wie die Rückwand 4 in Pfeilrichtung in die Nut 11 der Seitenwandung 10 eingeschoben wird. Die Zapfen 7 liegen nach dem Einschieben in den Bohrungen 8 der Seitenwandung 10 mit ihrem halbkreisförmigen Rundungen an der Rückwand 4 an. Auf der flachen Sei­te der Zapfen 7 können dann halbkreisförmige Teile 12, vor der Kante der Rückwand 4, in die Bohrungen 8 eingeschoben werden, wie in Fig. 4 durch Pfeile angegeben. Durch die eingeschobenen Teile 12 erfolgt eine Festlegung der Zapfen 7 in den Bohrungen 8, so daß die Belastungskräfte weitgehend auf die Rückwand 4 übertragen werden.FIG. 4 also shows how the rear wall 4 is pushed into the groove 11 of the side wall 10 in the direction of the arrow. The pins 7 are after insertion into the bores 8 of the side wall 10 with its semicircular curves on the rear wall 4. On the flat side of the pins 7, semicircular parts 12 can then be inserted into the bores 8 in front of the edge of the rear wall 4, as indicated by arrows in FIG. 4. The inserted parts 12 fix the pins 7 in the bores 8 so that the loading forces are largely transmitted to the rear wall 4.

Dies erfolgt in der Weise, daß die Zapfen 7, die in die Seitenwand 10 eingeschoben werden, in der halben Tiefe durch die Teile 12 von der halbkreisförmigen Ausbildung zur vollen Rundung bis zur vollen Tiefe der Bohrung ergänzt werden. Durch diese Ausbildung und das Anliegen der Rückwandkante am Teil 12, stützt sich der Beschlag bei Belastung gegen die Rückwandkante ab und bildet so einen kraftschlüssigen Einbau.This is done in such a way that the pins 7, which are inserted into the side wall 10, are supplemented in half the depth by the parts 12 from the semicircular design to full rounding to the full depth of the bore. Due to this design and the abutment of the rear wall edge on part 12, the fitting is supported against the rear wall edge under load and thus forms a non-positive installation.

Wie in Fig. 4a gezeigt, kann der Zapfen 7 mit dem Teil 12 auch einstük­kig hergestellt werden.As shown in Fig. 4a, the pin 7 with the part 12 can also be made in one piece.

Zweckmäßigerweise werden außerdem die Bohrungen 8 in der Seiten­wandung 10 so angeordnet, daß das Beschlaggehäuse 1 im Abstand zum Oberboden 9 gehalten wird.Appropriately, the bores 8 are arranged in the side wall 10 so that the fitting housing 1 is held at a distance from the top floor 9.
