Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung mit Haltewunschtaste, welche an Haltestangen in vornehmlich öffentlichen Verkersmitteln, wie z.B. Bussen, anordbar ist.The invention relates to a device with a stop request button, which is used on handrails in primarily public linking means, e.g. Buses, can be arranged.

Insbesondere in öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln kann dem Fahrzeugführer ein erwünschter Halt durch Betätigen einer Haltewunschtaste von den Fahrzeuginsassen angezeigt werden. Die Haltewunschtasten sind im allgemeinen an, in den Fahrzeugen verteilten, senkrecht ausgerichteten und sich zwischen dem Fahrzeugboden und dem Fahrzeugdach erstreckenden Haltestangen angeordnet. Die Haltewunschtasten herkömmlicher Art sind Teil einer an einer Haltestange zu befestigenden Vorrichtung, die im wesentlichen aus einem die Haltewunschtaste tragenden, die Haltestange bereichsweise umgreifenden Gehäuse besteht. Die Befestigung einer herkömmlichen Vorrichtung an einer Haltestange erfolgt mittels Schrauben, was sich aber in verschiedener Hinsicht als nachteilig erwiesen hat.In public transport in particular, the vehicle driver can be shown a desired stop by the vehicle occupants by pressing a stop request button. The stop request buttons are generally arranged on handrails which are distributed in the vehicles, are oriented vertically and extend between the vehicle floor and the vehicle roof. The stop request buttons of conventional type are part of a device to be fastened to a support rod, which essentially consists of a housing carrying the stop request button and encompassing the support rod in regions. A conventional device is fastened to a holding rod by means of screws, but this has proven to be disadvantageous in various respects.

Bisher ist man so vorgegangen, daß in ein Fahrzeug, z.B. Bus, zunächst die Haltestangen (pro Bus zwanzig oder mehr) montiert wurden. Die Haltestangen wurden vorher mit elektrischen Leitern versehen, deren Enden durch eine Bohrung in jeder Haltestange in Höhe der späteren Haltewunschtasten-Position zugänglich gemacht wurden. Nun mußte an jede Haltestange eine Vorrichtung richtig positioniert werden, so dann mußten die Bohrungen angerissen und gebohrt werden, wonach die Herstellung der elektrischen Verbindung zwischen den elektrischen Leitern und den elektrischen Kontakten der Haltewunschtaste und schließlich das Anschrauben der Vorrichtung an die Haltestange erfolgen konnte. Es ist leicht einzusehen, daß eine solche Vorgehensweise sehr umständlich und arbeitsintensiv ist. Hinzu kommt, daß beim Bohren der Befestigungslöcher stets die Gefahr besteht, daß die in den Haltestangen befindlichen elektrischen Leiter beschädigt werden. Auch kann es, wie die Praxis gezeigt hat, leicht vorkommen, daß die Positionierung der einen oder anderen Vorrichtung nicht den Erfordernissen entspricht, so daß die weiter oben geschilderte Prozedur wiederholt oder sogar die eine oder andere Haltestange ausgewechselt werden muß.So far, one has proceeded so that in a vehicle, e.g. Bus, first the handrails (twenty or more per bus) were mounted. The handrails were previously provided with electrical conductors, the ends of which were made accessible through a hole in each handrail at the later stop request button position. Now a device had to be correctly positioned on each handrail, then the holes had to be tapped and drilled, after which the electrical connection between the electrical conductors and the electrical contacts of the stop request button and finally the screwing of the device onto the handrail could take place. It is easy to see that such an approach is very cumbersome and labor intensive. In addition, when drilling the mounting holes there is always the risk that the electrical conductors located in the holding rods are damaged. Also, as practice has shown, it can easily happen that the positioning of one or the other device does not meet the requirements, so that the procedure described above has to be repeated or even one or the other of the handrails has to be replaced.

Die der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Aufgabe besteht nun darin, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art so zu gestalten, daß sich ein einfaches Positionieren und eine wesentlich vereinfachte Montage ergibt.The object on which the invention is based is now to design a device of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that simple positioning and considerably simplified assembly result.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Vorrichtung aus einem zweischaligen Innenkörper, der eine Haltestange zu umfassen vermag und aus einem den Innenkörper umfassenden zweischaligen Aussenkörper besteht, daß der Innenkörper innenseitig ein in eine Öffnung der Haltestange eingreifendes Rastelement und aussenseitig zwei, sich zumindest bereichsweise über den Unfang, d. h. quer zur Längsachse der Haltestange erstreckende, unter sich parallel angeordnete Kontaktstreifen aufweist, die mit innerhalb der Haltestangen angeordneten und aus deren Öffnung herausführbaren elektrischen Leitern verbindbar sind, daß der Aussenkörper die Haltewunschtaste trägt, welche rückseitig mit elektrischen Verbindungselementen versehen ist, die als an den Kontaktstreifen anliegende Kontaktfedern ausgebildet sind und daß der Aussenkörper axial und in auswählbaren radialen Winkelstellungen formschlüssig am Innenkörper festlegbar ist.This object is achieved in that the device consists of a double-shelled inner body, which is able to include a support rod and consists of a double-shelled outer body comprising the inner body, that the inner body has a locking element engaging in an opening of the holding rod and two, at least in some areas, on the outside about the extent, d. H. Transversely to the longitudinal axis of the support rod, below, parallel contact strips which can be connected to electrical conductors arranged within the support rods and leading out of their opening, that the outer body carries the stop request button, which is provided on the back with electrical connecting elements, which are as on the contact strips contact springs are formed and that the outer body can be fixed positively to the inner body axially and in selectable radial angular positions.

Durch die erfindungsgemäßen Maßnahmen wird ermöglicht, daß die Verkabelung und eine weitgehende Vormontage der Vorrichtung ausserhalb eines Fahrzeuges durchgeführt werden kann. Es entfällt jegliche Bohrarbeit für die Befestigung der Vorrichtung und damit auch die Gefahr einer Kabelbeschädigung.The measures according to the invention make it possible for the wiring and extensive pre-assembly of the device to be carried out outside a vehicle. There is no drilling work for fastening the device and thus also the risk of cable damage.

Die Positionierung der Vorrichtung ist wesentlich vereinfacht und leicht korrigierbar. Zudem ist die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung einfach im Aufbau und kostengünstig herstellbar, zumal bevorzugterweise vorgesehen ist, daß der Innenkörper, wie auch der Aussenkörper, als Kunststoff-Spritzgußteile ausgebildet sind.The positioning of the device is considerably simplified and can be easily corrected. In addition, the device according to the invention is simple in construction and inexpensive to manufacture, especially since it is preferably provided that the inner body, as well as the outer body, are designed as plastic injection molded parts.

Der Innenkörper kann aus zwei separaten oder, wie in Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vorgesehen, aus zwei durch ein Filmscharnier einstückig miteinander verbundenen Halbschalen bestehen.The inner body can consist of two separate half shells or, as provided in an embodiment of the invention, two half shells connected to one another by a film hinge.

Um den Innenkörper an einer Haltestange zu sichern, kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Halbschalen des Innenkörpers durch zumindest ein sie umgreifendes Spannelement aneinander festlegbar sind. Als Spannelement kann beispielsweise eine schlauchartige Vorrichtung, ein Rödeldraht, gegebenenfalls aber auch ein zugfestes Klebeband dienen.In order to secure the inner body on a holding rod, it can be provided that the half-shells of the inner body can be fixed to one another by at least one clamping element encompassing them. For example, a hose-like device, a solder wire, but optionally also a tensile adhesive tape can serve as the tensioning element.

Eine andere, in Weiterbildung der Erfindung vorgesehene Möglichkeit besteht darin, daß die Halbschalen des Innenkörpers durch an ihren gegeneinanderzusetzenden Längsrändern angeformte Klipselemente aneinander festlegbar sind.Another possibility provided in a development of the invention is that the half-shells of the inner body can be fixed to one another by means of clip elements formed on their longitudinal edges to be set against one another.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß das Rastelement des Innenkörpers aus einer angeformten Buchse besteht, innerhalb der die elektrischen Verbindungsstellen zwischen den Kontaktstreifen und den elektrischen Leitern anordbar sind.According to a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that the latching element of the inner body consists of an integrally formed socket within which the electrical connection points between the contact strips and the electrical conductors can be arranged.

Die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene formschlüssige Verbindung des Innen- und Aussenkörpers in radialer Richtung wird bevorzugterweise dadurch geschaffen, daß der Innenkörper mit wenigstens einer sich zumindest bereichsweise über den Umfang erstreckenden Verzahnung versehen ist, in die eine am Aussenkörper innenseitig angeordnete Gegenverzahnung einzugreifen vermag. Durch diese Maßnahme ergibt sich neben dem Vorteil einer formschlüssigen Verbindung auch eine besonders einfache Positionierung der Vorrichtung, wobei auch ein Verstellbereich von 36o Grad realisierbar ist, wenn die Verzahnung als umlaufender Zahnkranz ausgeführt wird, was natürlich im Rahmen der Erfindung liegt.The positive connection according to the invention of the inner and outer body in the radial direction is preferably created in that the inner body is provided with at least one toothing which extends at least in regions over the circumference and into which a counter toothing arranged on the inside of the outer body is able to engage. In addition to the advantage of a positive connection, this measure also results in particularly simple positioning of the device, an adjustment range of 360 degrees also being feasible if the toothing is designed as a circumferential ring gear, which is of course within the scope of the invention.

Zwecks Herstellung einer formschlüssigen Verbindung zwischen Innen- und Aussenkörper der Vorrichtung in axialer Richtung kann in Weiterbildung der Erfindung vorgesehen sein, daß die Enden des Aussenkörpers jeweils mit einem nach innen gerichteten, die freien Enden des Innenkörpers übergreifenden Bund ausgebildet sind.For the purpose of establishing a positive connection between the inner and outer body of the device in the axial direction, it can be provided in a further development of the invention that the ends of the outer body are each formed with an inward-facing collar that overlaps the free ends of the inner body.

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann darin bestehen, daß der Aussenkörper aus zwei separat gefertigten und mit ihren Längsrändern gegeneinander setzbaren Schalen gebildet ist und daß die Schalen über daran angeformte Klipselemente aneinander festlegbar sind. Dabei sind die Klipselemente so an die Schalen des Aussenkörpers angeformt, daß eine Klipsverrastung innenseitig des Aussenkörpers erfolgt. Es empfiehlt sich, im Aussenkörper kleine Montageöffnungen vorzusehen, durch die hindurch die Klipsverbindung im Bedarfsfall, z.B. für eine Positionskorrektur, gelöst werden kann.A further embodiment of the invention can consist in that the outer body is formed from two separately manufactured shells that can be placed against one another with their longitudinal edges, and that the shells can be fixed to one another by means of clip elements molded onto them. The clip elements are molded onto the shells of the outer body in such a way that the clips snap into place on the inside of the outer body. It is advisable to provide small assembly openings in the outer body, through which the clip connection, e.g. for a position correction can be solved.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 einen Längsschnitt durch die Vorrichtung und
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt folgend der Linie II - II in Fig. 1.
An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the drawing. Show it:
  • Fig. 1 shows a longitudinal section through the device and
  • FIG. 2 shows a section along the line II-II in FIG. 1.

Die neue Vorrichtung besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Innenkörper 1, der eine Haltestange 2 umfaßt und aus einem Aussenkörper 3, der den Innenkörper 1 umfaßt. Der Innenkörper 1 und der Aussenkörper 3 sind als Kunststoff-Spritzgußteile ausgebildet.The new device consists essentially of an inner body 1, which comprises a support rod 2 and an outer body 3, which comprises the inner body 1. The inner body 1 and the outer body 3 are designed as plastic injection molded parts.

Der lnnenkörper 1 besteht aus zwei Halbschalen 4 und 5, die mit ihren Längsrändern gegeneinander gesetzt sind. Ein Relativverschieben der Halbschalen 4,5 wird durch Aussparungen 6 im einen Teil 5 und darin eingreifende Zungen 7 im anderen Teil 4 verhindert. Die Halbschalen 4,5 werden durch sie umschlingende Spannelemente 8 zusammengehalten. Der Innenkörper 1 ist an der Haltestange 2 durch ein an der Halbschale 5 angeformtes Rastelement 9 in axialer und radialer Richtung festgelegt, indem das Rastelement 9 in eine Bohrung der Haltestange eingreift.The inner body 1 consists of two half-shells 4 and 5 which are set against one another with their longitudinal edges. A relative displacement of the half shells 4, 5 is prevented by cutouts 6 in one part 5 and tongues 7 engaging therein in the other part 4. The half-shells 4, 5 are held together by clamping elements 8 that wrap around them. The inner body 1 is fixed to the holding rod 2 in the axial and radial direction by a locking element 9 formed on the half-shell 5 by the locking element 9 engaging in a bore in the holding rod.

Die Halbschale 5 trägt aussenseitig zwei, sich über ihren Umfang erstreckende Kontaktstreifen 10, die mit abgewinkelten Fahnen gegenseitig isoliert in das Rastelement 9, das als Buchse ausgebildet ist, eingreifen (Fig. 1). Innerhalb des buchsenförmigen Rastelements 9 sind die Kontaktfahnen mittels üblicher Steckverbinder mit innerhalb der Haltestange 2 verlaufenden elektrischen Leitern in nicht näher dargestellter Weise verbunden. Gewünschtenfalls kann auch die Halbschale 4 mit Kontaktstreifen 10 versehen sein, die dann mit den ersteren elektrisch leitend zu verbinden sind.On the outside, the half-shell 5 carries two contact strips 10 which extend over its circumference and which, with angled flags, engage in the detent element 9, which is designed as a socket, in an insulated manner (FIG. 1). Within the socket-shaped locking element 9, the contact lugs are connected by means of conventional plug connectors to electrical conductors running within the holding rod 2 in a manner not shown in any more detail. If desired, the half-shell 4 can also be provided with contact strips 10, which are then to be electrically conductively connected to the former.

Die Halbschale 4 des Innenkörpers 1 trägt umfangssseitig zwei angeformte Zahnkränze 11 mit Zähnen 12. Auch hier ist es möglich, die Halbschale 5 mit einer ebensolchen Verzahnung zu versehen.The half-shell 4 of the inner body 1 has two molded-on ring gears 11 with teeth 12 on its circumference. Here too it is possible to provide the half-shell 5 with the same toothing.

Der Aussenkörper 3 besteht aus den beiden Halbschalen 13 und 14, die im zusammengesetzen Zustand den Innenkörper 1 umschliessen. Die Halbschale 13 trägt innenseitig angeformte Zähne 15, die in die Verzahnung des Innenkörpers 1 eingreifen, wodurch sich eine radiale Justierbarkeit des Aussenkörpers 3 relativ zum Innenkörper 1 ergibt. Die Halbschale 13 ist weiterhin mit angeformten Federarmen 16 ausgebildet, die an ihren freien Enden Klipsnasen 17 tragen.The outer body 3 consists of the two half-shells 13 and 14 which, when assembled, enclose the inner body 1. The half-shell 13 has teeth 15 formed on the inside, which engage in the teeth of the inner body 1, which results in a radial adjustability of the outer body 3 relative to the inner body 1. The half-shell 13 is also formed with integrally formed spring arms 16 which carry clip lugs 17 at their free ends.

Die Halbschale 14 des Aussenkörpers 3 trägt zunächst innerhalb und unterhalb einer fensterartigen Gehäuseöffnung 18 die eigentliche Haltewunschtaste 19, die eine Berührungstaste 20, eine gedruckte Leiterplatte 21 sowie zwei Kontaktfedern 22, die die Kontaktstreifen 10 kontaktieren, umfaßt. Die Haltewunschtaste 19 ist ein im Handel erhältliches Bauteil, so daß der nähere Aufbau und das Funktionsprinzip desselben nicht näher erläutert wird.The half-shell 14 of the outer body 3 initially carries within and below a window-like housing opening 18 the actual stop request button 19, which includes a touch button 20, a printed circuit board 21 and two contact springs 22 which contact the contact strips 10. The stop request button 19 is a commercially available component, so that the detailed structure and the functional principle of the same is not explained in detail.

Die Halbschale 14 weist stufenförmig zurückspringende Absetzungen 23 auf, die im zusammengesteckten Zustand des Aussenkörpers 3 zum Hinterrasten der Klipsnasen 17, der Federarme 16 an der Halbschale 13 dient. Nach dem Hinterrasten sind die Halbschalen 13, 14 zuverlässig aneinander festgelegt.The half-shell 14 has stepped recesses 23 which, in the assembled state of the outer body 3, serve to latch the clip lugs 17 and the spring arms 16 on the half-shell 13. After snapping back, the half-shells 13, 14 are reliably fixed to one another.

Es ist noch zu erwähnen, daß der Aussenkörper 3 an seinen Endbereichen jeweils mit einem nach innen gerichteten, die freien Enden des Innenkörpers 1 übergreifenden Bund 24 (Fig. 1) ausgebildet sind.It should also be mentioned that the outer body 3 is formed at its end regions with an inwardly directed collar 24 (FIG. 1) which overlaps the free ends of the inner body 1.

Bei der Montage wird zweckmäßigerweise wie folgt vorgegangen:
Sämtliche Haltestangen eines Fahrzeuges, z.B. Busses, werden in vorgegebener Höhte mit einer Bohrung versehen, welche zur Durchführung der elektrischen Leiter und der Aufnahme des Rastelements 9 dienen. Dann wird ausserhalb des Fahrzeuges die elektrische Verbindung zwischen den genannten Leitern und den Kontaktstreifen 10 hergestellt und die Anordnung des Innenkörpers 1 auf jede Haltestange 2 getroffen. Dazu werden die Halbschalen 4,5 lediglich gegeneinander gesetzt, wobei auf das Einrasten des Rastelements 9 zu achten ist, und mittels wenigstens eines Spannelements 8 aneinander und damit auch an der Haltestange 2 festgelegt. Nach der Montage sämtlicher Haltestangen in einem Fahrzeug brauchen dannn lediglich noch die Aussenkörper 3 mit vormontierter Haltewunschtaste 19 nach ordnungsgemäßer und ,durch die Verzahnungen 11,12,15 gesicherter Ausrichtung, über die Innenkörper 1 geklipst zu werden.
Appropriately proceed as follows during assembly:
All handrails of a vehicle, for example a bus, are provided with a hole at a predetermined height, which are used to carry out the electrical conductors and to accommodate the locking element 9. Then the electrical connection between the mentioned conductors and the contact strips 10 is established outside the vehicle and the arrangement of the inner body 1 is made on each support rod 2. For this purpose, the half-shells 4, 5 are merely placed against one another, taking care to engage the latching element 9, and are fixed to one another by means of at least one tensioning element 8 and thus also to the holding rod 2. After all the handrails have been assembled in a vehicle, the outer bodies 3 with the pre-assembled stop request button 19 then only need to be clipped over the inner body 1 after proper alignment, secured by the teeth 11, 12, 15.
