Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kleiderarm zum Aufhängen von Kleidungsstücken, der aus mehreren teleskopartig ineinandergefügten hohlen Armelementen zusammengesetzt ist, so dass er sich von einem für die Befestigung an einer Wand vorgesehenen, Befestigungsmittel tragenden Befestigungsende zu seinem freien Ende hin verjüngt und an dem mehrere, über seine Länge verteilt, quer zur Armlängsrichtung abstehende Kleiderhaken zum Einhängen eines Kleidungsstückes oder eines Kleiderbügels vorgesehen sind.The invention relates to a clothes arm for hanging clothes, which is composed of a plurality of telescopically nested hollow arm elements, so that it tapers from a fastening end intended for fastening to a wall, fastener-carrying fastening end towards its free end and at which several, via its Distributed in length, clothes hooks protruding transversely to the longitudinal direction of the arm are provided for hanging in a piece of clothing or a clothes hanger.

Ein Kleiderarm zum Aufhängen von Kleidungsstücken wird zweckmässig wie übliche Kleiderhaken verhältnismässig hoch, z.B. in Kopfhöhe, an einer Wand befestigt und ragt senkrecht von ihr weg. Da er somit bei Nichtgebrauch viel ungenutzten Raum beanspruchen würde und sogar eine Gefährdung darstellen könnte, ist ein häufig bekannter Kleiderarm nach unten gegen die Wand wegklappbar. Ausserdem ist er schmal ausgeführt, damit der Haken eines Kleiderbügels ihn übergreifen kann und mehrere Kleidungsstücke mit Kleiderbügeln nebeneinander aufgehängt werden können. Zum Aufhängen mehrerer Kleidungsstücke an deren Hängeschlaufen ist er jedoch nicht geeignet, da er hierfür andererseits zu dick ist.A clothes arm for hanging items of clothing expediently becomes relatively high, like conventional clothes hooks, e.g. at head height, attached to a wall and protrudes vertically from it. Since it would thus take up a lot of unused space when not in use and could even pose a hazard, a commonly known clothes arm can be folded down against the wall. In addition, it is narrow so that the hook of a hanger can reach over it and several items of clothing with hangers can be hung next to each other. However, it is not suitable for hanging several items of clothing on their hanging loops, since on the other hand it is too thick for this.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Kleiderarm zu finden, der sich auf einfache Weise in eine ästhetisch ansprechende raumsparende Form verwandeln lässt und der es ausserdem ermöglicht, mehrere Kleidungsstücke an ihm stabil aufzuhängen, ohne dass hierfür zusätzliche Kleiderbügel erforderlich sind. Weiterhin soll er aus wenigen Teilen leicht herstellbar sein.The invention has for its object to find a clothes arm that can be easily converted into an aesthetically pleasing space-saving shape and that also allows several items of clothing to be hung on it without the need for additional hangers. Furthermore, it should be easy to manufacture from a few parts.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäss dadurch, dass die Kleiderhaken an mindestens einigen der Armelemente angeformt sind und an mindestens einigen der Armelemente mindestens eine das Zusammenschieben des Kleiderarmes ermöglichende Aussparung für die Aufnahme eines Schaftes des Kleiderhakens eines benachbarten Armelementes vorgesehen ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the clothes hooks are integrally formed on at least some of the arm elements and on at least some of the arm elements there is at least one recess which enables the clothes arm to be pushed together for receiving a shaft of the clothes hook of an adjacent arm element.

Die Darstellungen der Fig.1,3,5 und 6 zeigen einen erfindungsgemässen Kleiderarm 1,1',1" in teleskopartig auseinandergezogener Gebrauchsposition, so dass er sich um eine Länge von beispielsweise 40 cm senkrecht von der Wand 2 wegerstreckt, an der er befestigt ist. In dieser Position oder auch in einer teilweise durch Zusammenschieben verkürzten nichtdargestellten Position können an ihm Kleidungsstücke aufgehängt werden, indem entweder ein üblicher Kleiderbügel oder die Hängeschlaufe des betreffenden Kleidungsstückes in einen der zahlreichen Kleiderhaken 3,4 eingehängt wird.The representations of FIGS. 1, 3, 5 and 6 show a clothes arm 1, 1 ', 1 "according to the invention in a telescopically extended use position so that it extends perpendicularly from the wall 2 to which it is attached, for example by a length of 40 cm In this position or in a position which is not shown and which is partially shortened by pushing it together, items of clothing can be hung on it by either hanging a conventional hanger or the hanging loop of the item of clothing in question in one of the numerous clothes hooks 3, 4.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig.1 sind die Kleiderhaken 3 an der Unterseite des Kleiderarms 1 und jeweils an einem der teleskopartig ineinandergesetzten Armelemente 5 bis 11 angeformt und in T-Form als Doppelhaken mit zwei Hakenteilen 12 und 13 ausgeführt.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, the clothes hooks 3 are formed on the underside of the clothes arm 1 and in each case on one of the arm elements 5 to 11, which are telescopically nested in one another, and are designed in a T-shape as a double hook with two hook parts 12 and 13.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig.3 und 4 ist ebenfalls an jedem Armelement 5' bis 11' ein Kleiderhaken 4 vorgesehen, jedoch ragen diese in horizontaler Richtung von einer seitlichen Fläche des jeweiligen Armelementes 5' bis 11'weg, so dass die Kleidungsstücke an nur einer Seite des Kleiderarmes 1' angehängt werden können.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 3 and 4, a clothes hook 4 is likewise provided on each arm element 5 'to 11', but these protrude in the horizontal direction away from a lateral surface of the respective arm element 5 'to 11', so that the garments on only one Side of the clothes arm 1 'can be attached.

Die Kleiderhaken 3,4 haben beispielsweise einen an einem Armelement 5 bis 11 oder 5' bis 11' angeformten Schaft 15,16, auf dessen äusseres Ende ein als Spritzkörper hergestellter Hakenkörper 17 aufgesteckt und befestigt ist.The clothes hooks 3, 4 have, for example, a shaft 15, 16 formed on an arm element 5 to 11 or 5 'to 11', on the outer end of which a hook body 17 made as a spray body is attached and fastened.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig.3 und 4 mit einseitiger und seitlicher Anordnung der Kleiderhaken 4 ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn der Kleiderarm 1' entsprechend dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig.5 und 6 um eine vertikale Achse 19 schwenkbar befestigt ist, so dass der Kleiderarm 1' in eine Position parallel zur Wand 2 geschwenkt werden kann und die Kleiderhaken 4 in einer zur Wand 2 parallelen Reihe von der Wand weg nach vorn gerichtet sind. Hierfür ist an der Wand 2 z.B. ein u-förmiges Konsolenteil 20 angeschraubt, dessen übereinander angeordneten Schenkel 21,22 das wandseitige Armelement 5' bzw. 5" umfassen und die Enden der Achse 19 halten.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 3 and 4 with one-sided and lateral arrangement of the clothes hooks 4, it is particularly advantageous if the clothes arm 1 'according to the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 5 and 6 is fastened pivotably about a vertical axis 19, so that the clothes arm 1' can be pivoted into a position parallel to the wall 2 and the clothes hooks 4 are directed forward in a row parallel to the wall 2 away from the wall. For this, on the wall 2 e.g. a U-shaped bracket part 20 is screwed, the legs 21, 22 arranged one above the other encompass the wall-side arm element 5 'or 5 "and hold the ends of the axis 19.

Die Ausführungsbeispiele der Fig.1,2 und 5,6 unterscheiden sich lediglich durch die Ausführung ihrer Befestigung an der Wand 2. Fig.1 und 2 zeigen einen Wandhalter 24 mit beidseitig angeordneten, vertikal verlaufenden Halterungsnuten, in die die beiden seitlichen Befestigungsrippen 25,26 am Befestigungsende 25 des Kleiderarmes 1 von oben eingeschoben worden sind.The exemplary embodiments in FIGS. 1, 2 and 5, 6 differ only in the manner in which they are fastened to the wall 2. FIGS. 1 and 2 show a wall bracket 24 with vertically arranged mounting grooves into which the two lateral fastening ribs 25, 26 at the fastening end 25 of Clothes arm 1 have been inserted from above.

Fig.7, 8 und 9 zeigen mit gegenüber den anderen Darstellungen grösserem Abbildungsmasstab am Beispiel eines Armelementes 6' eine bevorzugte Ausgestaltung der Armelemente 5' bis 11'. Das Armelement 6' hat eine äussere Umrissform, die in die innere Umrissform des angrenzenden grösseren Armelementes 5' gleitend passt und eine innere Umrissform, in die die äussere Umrissform des angrenzenden kleineren Armelementes 7'gleitend passt. Diese Umrissformen sind rechteckförmig, wobei die längere Achse der Querschnittsform vertikal gerichtet ist, so dass das Profil des Kleiderarmes einen grossen Biegewiderstand hat.7, 8 and 9 show a preferred embodiment of the arm elements 5 'to 11' with a larger scale than the other representations using the example of an arm element 6 '. The arm element 6 'has an outer outline shape which slidably fits into the inner outline shape of the adjacent larger arm element 5' and an inner outline shape into which the outer outline shape of the adjacent smaller arm element 7 'slidably fits. These outline shapes are rectangular, the longer axis of the cross-sectional shape being oriented vertically, so that the profile of the clothes arm has a large bending resistance.

Für ein leichtes Ineinanderschieben der Armelemente 5' bis 11', um den Kleiderarm 1' bei Nichtgebrauch in eine raumsparende kompakte Form zu verwandeln, sind die genannten inneren Umrissformen durch vier flache Innenrippen 28 bis 31 an den längeren Rechteckseiten des Hohlquerschnitts leicht profiliert, und die äusseren Umrissformen haben an den längeren Rechteckseiten breite flache Aussparungen 32,33, die jeweils zwei der genannten Innenrippen 28,29;30,31 des umschliessenden benachbarten Armelementes 5' zwischen sich einschliessen. Somit bilden die oberen schmalen Seitenflächen 36,37 der Innenrippen 28,30 Gleitschienen für die äusseren Absatzflächen 40, 41, die die flachen Aussparungen 32,33 des eingeschlossenen Armteiles 7' begrenzen. Auf entsprechende Weise ist zwischen den beiden unteren flachen Rippen 29,31 und unteren Absätzen 42,43 der flachen Aussparung 32,33 eine schienenartige Führung gegeben, die durch Biegebelastungen am Kleiderarm 1' auftretende aufwärtsgerichtete Kräfte aufnehmen.For a slight pushing of the arm elements 5 'to 11' in order to transform the clothes arm 1 'into a space-saving compact shape when not in use, the inner contour shapes mentioned are slightly profiled by four flat inner ribs 28 to 31 on the longer rectangular sides of the hollow cross section, and that Outer outline shapes have wide, flat recesses 32, 33 on the longer sides of the rectangle, each of which encloses two of the inner ribs 28, 29, 30, 31 of the surrounding adjacent arm element 5 'between them. The upper narrow side surfaces 36, 37 of the inner ribs 28, 30 thus form slide rails for the outer heel surfaces 40, 41, which delimit the flat recesses 32, 33 of the enclosed arm part 7 '. In a corresponding manner, a rail-like guide is provided between the two lower flat ribs 29, 31 and lower shoulders 42, 43 of the flat recess 32, 33, which absorb upward forces that occur due to bending loads on the clothes arm 1 '.

Ein funktionelles Rippenpaar 28,29 oder 30,31 kann auch durch eine einzelne, nichtdargestellte Erhebung ersetzt sein, die die äusseren Abmessung eines Rippenpaares hat und die in die äussere Aussparung 32,33 des eingesetzten anderen Armteiles 7' mit Gleitspiel hinein passt.A functional pair of ribs 28, 29 or 30, 31 can also be replaced by a single elevation, not shown, which has the outer dimension of a pair of ribs and which fits into the outer recess 32, 33 of the other arm part 7 'used with sliding play.

In zumindest einer längeren Profilwand des hohlen Armteiles 6'ist eine schlitzförmige Aussparung 49 vorgesehen, deren Funktion im folgenden beschrieben wird. Besonders wenn für eine nichtdargestellte Ausführungsform des Kleiderarmes auf einander gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Armteiles 6' je eine solche Aussparung 49 vorgesehen ist, um auch auf der gegenüberliegende Kleiderhaken aufnehmen zu können, ergibt sich eine Unterbrechung des sonst geschlossenen Hohlprofils des Armteiles, die ohne das erwähnte Umfassen der Innenprofilierung (28-31) durch eine äussere Aussparung 32,33 des umschlossenen Armteiles 7' zu einer wesentlich verringerten Biegebelastbarkeit des Kleiderarmes führen würde. Die genannten ineinandergreifenden Profilierungen 28 bis 33 bewirken somit neben der verbesserten Gleitführung auch eine Aussteifung des hohlen Kleiderarmes 1,1'.A slot-shaped recess 49 is provided in at least one longer profile wall of the hollow arm part 6 ′, the function of which is described below. Particularly when such a recess 49 is provided for an embodiment of the garment arm, not shown, on opposite sides of the arm part 6 'so that it can also be received on the opposite garment hook, there is an interruption of the otherwise closed hollow profile of the arm part, which does not include the aforementioned the inner profile (28-31) through an outer recess 32, 33 of the enclosed arm part 7 'would lead to a significantly reduced bending strength of the clothes arm. The above-mentioned interlocking profiles 28 to 33 thus, in addition to the improved sliding, also stiffen the hollow clothes arm 1, 1 '.

Um das teleskopartige Ineinanderschieben der Armteile 5 bis 11 und 5' bis 11' möglichst weitgehend zu ermöglichen, so dass der Abstand zwischen den Kleiderhaken 3,4 sich bis auf Null kontinuierlich verändern lässt, ist in den Armelementen 5 bis 10 und 5' bis 10' jeweils eine solche schlitzförmige Aussparung 45 bis 50 vorgesehen, die sich entlang einer Linie erstrecken, auf der die Schäfte 15,16 der Kleiderhaken 3,4 angeordnet sind. Dabei haben diese Aussparungen 45 bis 50 in Richtung zum Befestigungsende 25 eine zunehmend grössere Länge, so dass in zusammengeschobener Endposition des Kleiderarmes 1,1'die Schäfte 15,16 aller Kleiderhaken 3,4 in der Aussparung 50 des grössten Armelementes 5,5' Platz finden.In order to enable the telescopic pushing of the arm parts 5 to 11 and 5 'to 11' as far as possible so that the distance between the coat hooks 3, 4 can be continuously changed to zero, the arm elements 5 to 10 and 5 'to 10 Such a slot-shaped recess 45 to 50 is provided, which extends along a line on which the shafts 15, 16 of the clothes hooks 3, 4 are arranged. These recesses 45 to 50 have an increasingly greater length in the direction of the fastening end 25, so that in the pushed-together end position of the clothes arm 1, 1 ', the shafts 15, 16 of all clothes hooks 3, 4 have space in the recess 50 of the largest arm element 5.5' Find.

An den Armelementen 6 bis 11 und 6' bis 11' sind weiterhin federnde Verklinkungmittel vorgesehen, die das teleskopartige Auseinanderziehen des Kleiderarmes 1,1' begrenzen. Diese weisen beispielsweise eine Federzunge 52 auf, mit einem endseitig angeformten Hakenteil 53, der am Ende des Armteiles über die obere äussere Begrenzungsfläche 54 übersteht, wie in Fig. 7 bis 8 anhand des Armteiles 6' gezeigt ist. Beim Ineinanderstecken der Armteile 5 bis 11 und 5' bis 11' wird die Federzunge 52 nach innengedrückt und schnappt anschliessend in eine innenseitige Nut 55 des umschliessenden Armteiles ein. Die Länge dieser Nut 55 bis zu einem Absatz 56 bestimmt die Länge, um die ein Armteil aus dem umschliessenden Armteil herausziehbar ist, indem der Haken 53 an diesem Absatz 55 verklinkt.On the arm elements 6 to 11 and 6 'to 11' resilient latching means are further provided, which limit the telescopic pulling apart of the clothes arm 1,1 '. These have, for example, a spring tongue 52 with a hook part 53 formed on the end, which protrudes at the end of the arm part beyond the upper outer boundary surface 54, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 8 with reference to the arm part 6 '. When the arm parts 5 to 11 and 5 'to 11' are inserted into one another, the spring tongue 52 is pressed inward and then snaps into an inside groove 55 of the enclosing arm part. The length of this groove 55 up to a shoulder 56 determines the length by which an arm part can be pulled out of the enclosing arm part by the hook 53 latching onto this shoulder 55.

Das in den Fig.1 und 5 offen dargestellte freie Armende 56,56" ist vorzugsweise durch einen nichtdargestellten eingepressten Kappendeckel verschlossen.The free arm end 56, 56 ″ shown in FIGS. 1 and 5 is preferably closed by a press-in cap cover, not shown.
